Primordial Era: Starting with the Immortals of the Jie Sect to Prove the Dao of Hunyuan

Seeing that Ji Meng was being suppressed by Haotian, Guiche simultaneously spewed poisonous mist from its nine heads towards Haotian. Haotian spun the Haotian Mirror above his head, and golden light blocked all the poisonous mist from getting close.

"These two demon saints are nothing special."

Haotian sneered, and lightning blazed brightly on his Haotian Sword. He slashed down, striking Ji Meng squarely on the shoulder. Ji Meng groaned, blood splattering as he flew backward.

Guiche rushed forward to assist, its nine heads snapping at Haotian simultaneously. Haotian neither dodged nor evaded; a golden light shot from the Haotian Mirror, striking Guiche's middle head squarely. Guiche screamed in agony as its head exploded, splattering black blood everywhere.

In a short time, one of the two demon saints was injured and the other was crippled.

However, Haotian did not press his advantage, because his gaze had already fallen upon the Heavenly Court.

"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Court is in dire need of help!"

Sure enough. The next moment, Venus's voice came from afar, tinged with anxiety: "Bai Ze has led the demon race in a surprise attack on the Heavenly Court and is already surrounding the Southern Heavenly Gate!"

"Bai Ze predicted that I would return to save the Heavenly Court, but how could I grant your wish! I'll kill these two demon saints first, and then we'll see if you'll still try to save them!"

Haotian snorted coldly and charged at Ji Meng and Gui Che again. Ji Meng and Gui Che fought desperately together, but their cultivation was still inferior to Haotian's. After a long battle, the two broke through the encirclement with injuries, but most of their demon soldiers were killed or wounded and scattered in all directions.

"I've given you some time to prepare; now it's my turn to act!"

In the Heavenly Demon Realm, Rahu pointed a finger. The routed soldiers, unable to rejoin the main force of the demon race, were secretly drawn by demonic energy and fell into the demonic net laid out by Rahu.

He then activated his original demonic power, refining them all into immortal demons, and charged towards Chen Du!

In a short while, countless demonic figures gathered outside Chendu City, each one fierce and ruthless, with bloodshot eyes, staring intently at the direction of the city.

The countless demonic figures roared to the sky, their roars like thunder, shaking the houses in Chendu City.

"They're here."

Li Qing had already informed Laozi, but Laozi only told him that the Heavenly Dao was wary of his Celestial Immortal techniques and position as the leader of the Human Sect, so it sent Rahu to bring down this calamity in order to force Fuxi to create the Human Immortal Martial Arts. Therefore, he asked Li Qing to assist him well.

Li Qing thought for a moment and realized that Fuxi was already the common ruler of the human race, and the human race was developing rapidly, with humanity having grown to a certain extent.

If Heaven wants humanity to mature as quickly as possible, the best way is to force humanity to create its own cultivation methods. Therefore, it is not surprising that this calamity has occurred.

Fuxi in Chenduzhong's face darkened. He raised his hand and waved, and the human guards on the city wall drew their bows and shot arrows at the demonic shadows.

Arrows rained down, striking the demonic figure as if they were hitting iron or stone, clattering and falling to the ground without even piercing its skin.

The demonic figures let out a piercing, sinister laugh and pounced on Chen Ducheng.

Fuxi remained expressionless, sat cross-legged, placed the Fuxi Qin (a type of zither) across his lap, and plucked the strings with his ten fingers.

The music began, as powerful as clashing swords and thunderous roars. The notes transformed into invisible blades, slashing towards the demonic shadows.

The demonic shadows were struck by the zither music, their demonic energy scattering, but they only retreated a few steps and suffered no real harm. They continued to rush towards Chen Ducheng, their speed increasing.

Fuxi frowned. He had been urging the Fuxi Qin on, a skill that even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would be wary of, yet today he was powerless against these demonic shadows.

"Fellow Daoist, what are these things? Why is the Fuxi Qin ineffective against them?"

Li Qing arrived at the city wall, his gaze falling on the hundred or so demonic figures: "These are not ordinary demons. They have no souls within them, only a trace of the Demon Ancestor's will driving them. The Fuxi Qin targets the soul, so it is naturally ineffective against them."

"These demonic shadows cannot be killed by ordinary methods. Their origin lies with a great supernatural being beyond the heavens. Only by creating a cultivation method belonging to the human race and blessing it with merit and fortune can they be completely eradicated."

Fuxi was taken aback: "The cultivation methods of the human race?"

"The Golden Elixir Path passed down by the Sage of Taiqing is suitable for human cultivation, but it is the path of celestial immortals and has little to do with the human race's own destiny. The human race needs a cultivation method rooted in itself."

Fuxi seemed to be deep in thought, his gaze falling on those demonic shadows.

"How can it be accomplished?"

Creating a method of cultivation is no easy task. Fuxi was at a loss for what to do, so he subconsciously sought advice from Li Qing.

"Humans are born with vital energy and blood. The stronger the vital energy and blood, the stronger the vitality. This is the method of cultivation for humans."

Fuxi asked, "How does one cultivate?"

"Learn from heaven and earth, learn from nature, learn from all things."

Li Qing said, "All these years you have observed the heavens and the earth, examined your own body and the world around you, all for this moment. Now watch."

Li Qing stretched out his palm, and a ball of qi and blood condensed in his palm. The ball of qi and blood was so dense that it was almost tangible, radiating a scorching aura, like a burning flame.

Fuxi looked at the mass of qi and blood, his eyes flashing with spiritual light.

"Fellow Daoist, may I take a closer look?"

Li Qing nodded and extended his palm in front of Fuxi.

Fuxi probed the mass of qi and blood with his divine sense and felt a vast vitality rushing towards him. That vitality was pure and powerful, without a trace of impurity, like the most primal power at the beginning of the world.

"This is the power of blood and qi when the physical body is cultivated to its ultimate level."

Li Qing said, "Not relying on the primordial spirit, not relying on magic power, but relying solely on oneself, this is the way of cultivation for the human race."

Fuxi closed his eyes and immersed his mind in that mass of qi and blood, carefully comprehending it.

Li Qing withdrew his hand, not disturbing the conversation, and simply stood quietly to the side.

The demonic shadows outside the city are increasing in number and are approaching the city walls. The human soldiers are fighting hard, but they can only temporarily repel them and cannot completely eliminate them.

Fuxi opened his eyes, his gaze resolute.

"I see, I understand now."

He turned and walked down from the city wall, back to the high platform, and sat cross-legged.

The Fuxi Qin rested across his knees, his ten fingers resting on the strings, but he stopped playing. Instead, he closed his eyes and merged his mind with the universe.

He recalled what he had seen and heard over the years.

The movements of the sun, moon, and stars in the heavens are traceable.

On the earth, the course of mountains and rivers follows certain rules.

The habits of birds and beasts, and the growth of flowers, grasses, and trees, all contain the profound principles of heaven and earth.

"Learn from heaven and earth, learn from nature, learn from all things."

Fuxi muttered to himself, and the fog in his heart gradually dissipated.

He raised his hand, and his vital energy gathered in his palm. At first, it was just a faint ray of light, but guided by his thoughts, the light grew brighter and more solid, eventually transforming into a blood-red bead that slowly rotated in his palm.

A hint of relief flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

Fuxi did not stop. He absorbed the blood-red bead into his body, and his qi and blood flowed through his meridians like small dragons, weaving through his body.

Wherever Qi and blood flow, muscles and bones resonate, and the five internal organs radiate light.

A surge of vibrant life force erupted from his body, soaring into the sky and transforming into a crimson pillar of light that pierced the heavens.

Outside Chendu City, the demonic figures, illuminated by the blood-red beam of light, let out mournful screams, their demonic energy dissipating and showing signs of vanishing.

Fuxi stood up and let out a long roar.

"By the will of Heaven, Fuxi of the human race has created a method of cultivation, based on Qi and blood, rooted in the body, refining essence into Qi, tempering Qi into spirit, and refining spirit to return to emptiness. This method is called the Human Immortal Martial Path, opening up a completely new path of cultivation for the human race!"
