I start by accepting Sun Wukong as my disciple and reshape the Journey to the West

Chapter 163 My good disciple, what are you going to do?

"The price?" Lei Ling stared at Nuwa for a long time before disappearing into the void again, his voice faintly echoing out.

"Your Majesty, you underestimate me. The Myriad Phoenix Formation has bound a Saint for an unknown period of time. No one can compare to me in this regard. This is an honor bestowed upon me. If word gets out, countless people will envy me. How could you possibly think that any price is higher than this honor?"

Nuwa gazed at the dome for a long time before finally withdrawing her gaze.

“What could be more honorable than imprisoning a saint?” the saint Nuwa murmured, then smiled.

"In the past, the colorful stone accompanied me in mending the sky, and it brought down karma, becoming the most meritorious being on the journey to the West. Now, Fellow Daoist Xuantian is using it as the center to spread karma in all directions. What do you think of this?"

"His merit in mending the heavens, coupled with the karma of his journey to the west, was all part of the Empress's plan. His glory is indeed remarkable, and he is certainly qualified to be compared with me."

"Oh! I understand now. If you have been lying dormant for thousands of years, accompanying me, it is to protect me completely, just for the creation of the world on the Great Dao. What do you think of such merit and glory?" Nuwa put the Lotus Lantern into her space and spoke with a smile.

Above the dome, Lei Ling remained silent for a long time, seemingly not having heard Nuwa's words.

"Lei Ling, I want to know when you broke free from the control of the Heavenly Dao."

"As Your Majesty said, I have been your guardian from the very beginning, and have never been subject to the evolution of the Heavenly Dao."

"Hahaha!" Nuwa laughed loudly, even laughing until tears streamed down her face. She carefully caught the two drops of tears.

“These tears have the power of creation. I will give you one drop to help you create your golden body, and send the other drop into the Tongtian River for me.”

Nuwa directly flung two tears into the void.

hum!
A spatial rift appeared, and two tears disappeared into it.

"Thank you for your great kindness, Your Majesty!" Lei Ling's voice was now filled with more respect.

The goddess Nuwa attained sainthood through the merit of creating humans from clay, and the creative power hidden in the tears of a saint is unimaginable.

"I really look down on my teacher more and more. As the Dao Ancestor, he was actually manipulated by the Heavenly Dao. He really disgraced the title of Dao Ancestor. After all, Lei Ling, you can break free from the control of the Heavenly Dao. So why has my teacher never appeared again after the Investiture of the Gods?"

"My original body is still fine, but the Dao Ancestor is ultimately an outsider. Your Majesty may need to investigate the cause and effect of this matter further."

Lei Ling's words made Nuwa sense something different.

"The will of Heaven is selfish, destroying the normal order of the three paths. That's why Fellow Daoist Xuantian took such a strong action during the Western Tribulation. So many remnants of the Heavenly Dao were devoured by Fellow Daoist Xuantian. And yet you're willing to speak up for your true form. Lei Ling, something's wrong with you!"

Levin has not responded to this.

But sometimes, not responding is itself a response.

At that moment, Nuwa felt a chill run through her body. Even as a primordial sage, she sensed something was amiss.

It even subtly affected His Dao Heart!
"Did I break some taboo?! Lei Ling, answer me!"

silence!

The dome was as quiet as the real sky, with no spirits hidden within it.

hum.

A light shimmered between Nuwa's brows.

Boo!
The Myriad Phoenix Formation emitted a piercing phoenix cry, suppressing the light between Nuwa's brows.

Hu Hu Hu.

Nuwa was panting heavily, unable to believe that her Dao heart was wavering.

Nuwa attempted to revisit her previous conversation with Lei Ling.

"Your Majesty, calm your mind. It is not appropriate for you to revisit this memory now. Today, I am merely here to plant a seed in Your Majesty's heart, so that Your Majesty's Dao heart will not completely collapse in the future."

Obeying orders.

Nuwa, the goddess, keenly grasped the information, but this time, she did not continue to ask questions. Instead, she lay down by the bedside.

Almost the instant Nuwa lay down, the bed turned into a puddle of mud, which quickly covered Nuwa's body. Before long, Nuwa had turned into a mud statue.

Dark clouds gathered in the void, and rain began to brew. Thunderclouds covered the entire dome at an extremely fast speed.

Crack! A bolt of lightning seemed to cleave the void, and a torrential downpour ensued.

Where the Tongtian River is located, the once cloudless sky has now been filled with thunderclouds.

Click!

As lightning struck, a sudden downpour began without warning.

The sage at the bottom of the river suddenly opened his eyes.

"This kind of aura?"

Wow!
Chains stretched upwards at incredible speed, eventually coalescing into a basket that caught a single, pearl-like raindrop falling from the void.

In an instant, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped!

It was as if this previous heavy rain had never happened before.

The basket sank downwards at an extremely fast speed, landing in front of the Sage of Heaven in the blink of an eye.

Looking at that single, crystal-clear pearl, a hint of reminiscence flashed in the eyes of the Sage of Heaven.

"Nuwa! You are indeed still alive."

hum.

The Zhuxian Sword in front of him hummed.

Without any further hesitation, the Sage of Heaven took a deep breath and inhaled the teardrop into his mouth.

He then fell into a deep sleep at an extremely fast speed, and the moment his eyes slowly closed, dark clouds reappeared in the sky.

This time, the dark clouds appeared very quickly and were much lower.

Gradually, the cloud evolved into an eyeball, which suddenly opened its eyes.

"Good disciple, do you wish to break the seal?"

A sound came out, and as the sound faded, the enormous eyeball began to press down.

As the enormous eye pressed down, the entire Tongtian River was covered by its shadow, creating a truly terrifying scene.

Almost simultaneously, a turtle leaped out from the bottom of the Tongtian River.

The moment the turtle appeared, it attracted all the attention of that one eye.

"what are you?"

A muffled sound echoed once more in the void, and at the same time, tens of thousands of bolts of lightning struck the tortoise at incredible speed.

Without any hesitation, Bangni's body suddenly grew larger, and its tortoise shell, like a canopy of the sky, directly met the lightning.

Click click click.

A series of rapid sounds rang out, and countless white marks appeared on the tortoise shell.

"Huh, interesting!"

"I am a divine tortoise who has achieved great cultivation. In ancient times, I helped the human emperor to develop a great formation. Today, I am merely using the Eight Trigrams Formation to pray for rain. How could this possibly attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao!"

The mud spoke human language and looked into the void with its large eyes.

"Oh? Did you bring the rain?"

"nature!"

The enormous eye blinked once, then slowly closed.

"You've grown old, and even this cause and effect can be miscalculated. But you can't come here for nothing. Since you've achieved this, then you shall add another tribulation to the journey to the West at the Tongtian River."

"Respect the decree!" Bangni shouted.
