Chapter 494 The Curtain Falls, the Showdown

With a flick of her slender fingers, the head of the Northern Sea Black Tortoise was frozen in place, and dazzling golden light of merit emanated from the depths of its primordial spirit.

That was the merit of mending the sky.

Nuwa grew increasingly cold. Years ago, she severed the four legs of the giant turtle in the North Sea to support the four corners of the earth. However, out of pity for the turtle, which was born in ancient times and had cultivated for countless years, she made an exception and granted it some of the merits of mending the sky.

But now it seems to have become the root of all evil.

Rumble!
Under a beam of golden light, the Niwan Palace of the North Sea Black Tortoise was forcibly opened.

She saw a huge phantom of a black tortoise coiled up, and deep within its sea of ​​consciousness, a dim golden light formed a primordial Bagua diagram, tightly protecting a figure sitting cross-legged.

His figure was almost indistinct.

The two stone slabs above, seemingly yin and yang, merge with the innate Bagua diagram, carrying an unyielding will of heaven and earth.

That was none other than Fuxi.

Nuwa could also see that Fuxi was nearing his limit, and a tangible anger suddenly flickered in the depths of her phoenix eyes.

"North Sea Black Tortoise, you deserve to die!"

Nuwa's face was etched with an unprecedented frost and fury.

As the North Sea Black Tortoise watched its head being severed by the power of creation, madness gleamed deep in its eyes.

"You vile woman, when you cut off my four legs that day, did you ever think this day would come? Every drink and every bite is preordained. Today, I am defeated by you. What does it matter if I give up this body for you? But don't even think about killing me. When I return one day, I will have a showdown with you and your siblings!"

Seeing the North Sea Black Tortoise suddenly blaze with divine light, and Dao fire appearing on its vast, ocean-like divine body as it attempted to escape through self-destruction, Nuwa raised her hand and pointed. The Mountain and River Map emitted a dazzling array of divine power, from which an incomparably powerful force of the earth arose, freezing the North Sea Black Tortoise's primordial spirit. Even the Dao fire burning on its body began to burn at a slower rate.

The next moment, countless cyan-colored rays of light from her hand probed into the body of the North Sea Black Tortoise, shattering the illusory image of the tortoise. The light then enveloped Fuxi, who was standing beneath the black and white innate Taiji Bagua.

Sensing the appearance of this extremely familiar divine power, Fuxi slowly opened his eyes.

"Little sister!"

Upon hearing this, Nuwa's voice trembled slightly.

"Brother!"

As she raised her hand, a surge of azure divine power of creation erupted from her palm, instantly piercing through the consciousness of the North Sea Black Tortoise. A small, exquisite black and white Tai Chi Bagua diagram appeared deep within her palm. It was as if Fuxi's obsession had dissipated, and a trace of his primordial spirit extinguished, leaving only the imprint merging with the Bagua diagram.

Seeing this, Nuwa put it into her sleeve and gazed at the North Sea Black Tortoise before her.

"The innate ferocious beast race truly deserves to die!"

She gritted her teeth inwardly.

The Black Tortoise of the North Sea burst into laughter.

"I only regret that my cultivation is incomplete, and I am unable to avenge the great grudge of my Xuan Turtle clan!"

Nuwa's face was cold.

"You beast, if it weren't for the blessings bestowed upon you by me, how could you have obtained such blessings through the merit of mending the heavens? You innate ferocious beast are truly born in chaos, never knowing what gratitude or righteousness is, only remembering hatred!"

Upon hearing this, the Black Tortoise of the North Sea burst into a tirade of curses.

"You wretch, do you think I care about your worthless merits? If you hadn't cut off my four legs, how could my many offspring have lost their protection, or been hunted down by the demon race? I only regret that my cultivation is too shallow to avenge this great grudge!"

Nuwa ignored it completely. Streams of azure light pierced through the protective shell of the North Sea Black Tortoise and landed on its body. The next moment, the North Sea Black Tortoise let out a miserable cry, and countless terrifying gnawing sounds seemed to come from deep within its shell. Streams of azure light gave rise to countless phantom images of demons, which, together with all beasts and things, formed countless azure runes. They were like living creatures, easily devouring the enormous North Sea Black Tortoise.

Only the mark of the North Sea Black Tortoise could never be completely eaten away. Nuwa took it into the Chaos Cauldron, where it was devoured by the Creation Insects for all eternity, unable to find release.

At the same time, Nuwa also noticed the changes outside the Mountain and River Map. Her jade face showed a slight change in expression, and her figure disappeared into the Mountain and River Map in an instant.

Meanwhile, in the western Mount Sumeru.

Countless pure and peaceful lights illuminated the void, exuding a fragrance and a sacred aura.

Tens of thousands of Buddhist disciples are practicing in temples, with chanting filling the air.

Everywhere are Bodhi trees, precious trees of wisdom; everywhere are Buddhist disciples and Bodhisattvas, sitting in meditation, preaching the Dharma to believers; signs of prosperity are already beginning to emerge.

Beside a magnificent golden merit pool, the edges of which are inlaid with many treasures such as agate, bodhi seeds, and glass. The pool water shimmers with seven-colored golden light, and golden lotus flowers bloom in the pool.

Two figures sat facing each other by the pool, gazing at the movements deep within the North Sea. The Taoist in green robes spoke softly.

"Senior brother, shall we lend a helping hand to Fellow Daoist Zhulong?"

Another monk with a dignified and compassionate face, dressed in yellow, clasped his hands together and spoke softly.

"This is a feud between Fellow Daoist Zhulong and Fellow Daoist Nuwa. It is best for us, fellow disciples, not to interfere, lest it cause misunderstandings!"

The Taoist in green nodded slightly.

"In the end, it was the Hokkaido people who left the cleanup behind, which implicated Fellow Daoist Zhulong!"

He paused slightly, then said.

"These innate ferocious beasts are indeed powerful, but they are too self-centered!"

Master Zhunti sighed softly, feeling extremely regretful.

In his view, these innate ferocious beasts were not only self-centered, but almost arrogant and conceited.

Both the Hokkaido people and the Chaos Emperor fell because of carelessness.

Especially the Black Tortoise of the North Sea.

If they had been willing to hand over Fuxi to them or Zhulong after suppressing Fuxi, the outcome would not have been the same.

But he just couldn't bear to part with the two innate magical treasures, the Hetu and the Luoshu.

Secondly, he was too clever for his own good and sent his only son to the Three Pure Ones of the Xuanmen sect.

In fact, Daoist Zhunti also wanted to take this opportunity to reclaim the two top-tier innate magic treasures, the Hetu and the Luoshu.

But he also knew that once his senior brother made a move, the Three Pure Ones of Xuanmen would inevitably intervene.

They are currently unable to deal with the Three Pure Ones of the Xuanmen, so it is better for them to hold back for the time being. Above the North Sea, as Nuwa appeared, boundless golden light manifested in the void in the form of dragons and snakes, and magnificent purple aura spread out. Nuwa seemed to be a manifestation of the concept of creation.

Her eyes fell upon the silver-white figure on the river of time.

"Fellow Daoist Zhulong, shouldn't you give me a reasonable explanation?"

She stared coldly at Zhulong.

Fuxi was the first Heavenly Emperor after the ancient Demon Court. Although the Heavenly Court was not as powerful as it is now, the Heavenly Emperor's Dao Fruit was not weak and was comparable to those at the fifth or sixth level of the Creation Realm.

With the power of that foolish North Sea Black Tortoise, there was absolutely no way it could have suppressed Fuxi silently.

They were even less able to suppress the strange phenomenon of the Heavenly Emperor.

Because the Black Tortoise of the North Sea must not have attained enlightenment at that time. It later relied on seizing the Nine Palaces Dao Path of Fuxi to complete its own Dao Path and then step onto the other shore.

There must have been a powerful figure from another realm helping him from behind, which allowed Fuxi to disappear without a trace.

Nuwa's first suspicion fell on Zhulong.

Locked onto by that terrifying killing intent, Zhulong immediately felt a headache coming on; he certainly didn't want to be targeted by Nuwa.

Nuwa's cultivation level may be slightly inferior to hers, but not by much.

Moreover, if Nuwa were to become enraged and switch allegiance to the Xuanmen sect, it would cause him even greater trouble.

Although he always knew that Nuwa was proud and arrogant and might not be willing to associate with the Three Pure Ones of the Xuanmen.

After a slight hesitation, he suddenly whispered to Nuwa.

“Fellow Daoist Nuwa, whether you believe it or not, there are definitely more than just us powerful beings on the other side of this world! Although I do not like Fuxi’s close relationship with the Xuanmen, this time it was not me who did it!”

After saying that, he transformed into a streak of light and suddenly disappeared into the sky above the North Sea.

Taiwei Daoist also witnessed this scene. His body flashed with light, and he dispelled his Pangu True Form state.

Yan Ju appeared beside him, but his aura suddenly diminished, and the three flowers of his primordial spirit deep within his sea of ​​consciousness dimmed.

With his current level of spiritual attainment, maintaining the state of a boundless divine being would be extremely difficult.

Above the void, Nuwa seemed to be deep in thought. Then she landed beside Taiwei Daoist Yan Ju and said with a serious expression.

"Fellow Daoist Taiwei, Fellow Daoist Yanju, I was able to successfully rescue my brother this time entirely thanks to your help. The conditions I promised you two earlier will not be changed and will always stand by!"

"If needed, you can go directly to Jinxiu Tianzhong!"

Her attention was entirely focused on Fuxi, and she had no intention of lingering there.

Upon seeing this, the Taoist Taiwei suddenly laughed.

"Your Majesty, in fact, there are many areas where Nuwa Palace and my Xuanmen can cooperate, such as matters concerning His Majesty Fuxi's future path of cultivation?"

"Ok?"

Nuwa's eyes flickered, and she glanced at him.

"If Fellow Daoist Taiwei has any other thoughts, we can arrange another time to discuss this matter in detail!"

Taiwei Daoist's words touched her sore spot. She glanced at the Pangu Banner in Taiwei Daoist's hand and decided to make an appointment with him at a certain time before quietly leaving.

After she left, Daoist Taiwei smiled and said to Yan Ju.

"Congratulations, your plan has basically succeeded!"

Yan Ju glanced at him and said softly.

"They've gained a lot of attention, but they've also made quite a few enemies!"

This can be considered killing several birds with one stone. In addition to successfully obtaining the control over the wood element source in the world, it also successfully sowed discord between Nuwa and the other gods of the divine race, and incidentally suppressed one of the other gods.

The next step, naturally, is to further plan the origins of the other Five Elements Dao Palaces.

"And the Chaos Cauldron!"

Yan Ju thought to himself.

The Chaos Cauldron represents the self he abandoned; if he can retrieve it, it can be directly transformed back into his self.

This will greatly help his spiritual practice.

……

Inside the North Sea Dragon Palace, the numerous dragons huddled together in fear, feeling the earth-shattering divine power emanating from the surrounding area, and each dragon trembled with dread.

Those auras, no matter which one they were, were all irresistible to the many powerful dragons.

"This is the other shore!"

Inside the Dragon Palace, the North Sea Dragon King's expression shifted, his eyes filled with bitterness.

He now has a deeper understanding of the phrase "below the other shore, all are ants."

Just then, his expression suddenly changed. Before the Dragon King's throne, a figure in black robes suddenly appeared. He stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an unparalleled aura of power. Under this pressure, he seemed to be suffocating.

Five hundred years later

On the sun, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared and then disappeared in an instant.

A boundless cycle diagram appeared above Yan Ju's head, in which the innate wood spirit palace, representing the origin of the wood element, had been fully formed.

Besides earth, there is metal.

The other three Daoist palaces are already under his control.

Yan Ju sensed the changes in the Boundless Divine Human Body and felt a little happy, but he secretly thought to himself.

"It's time to confront Houtu, the Earth Goddess!"
