Primordial Era: The Great Serpent of Yunmeng

Chapter 14 Mythical Beast Mounts

Cheers erupted throughout Yunmengze after the formation took effect.

For innate deities like Qi, ninety thousand years is but a fleeting moment, and time holds no real meaning.

But for ordinary living beings, 90,000 years is the legacy of several generations.

For ordinary beings in the primordial world, it is perfectly normal for cultivators to live for tens of thousands of years.

However, lifespan is a threshold; on the path of seeking enlightenment, those who live longer often walk more steadily and further.

Because they won't take risks due to their lifespan, they have more time to hone their skills and refine their abilities, filling in any gaps in their knowledge.

Those born as innate deities have no lifespan limit, achieve perfect enlightenment, and have enough patience to wait for opportunities or enough force to seize them.

It can be said that he was blessed with unique advantages.

Therefore, they are born indebted to the karmic consequences of heaven and earth.

Nothing unusual happens on ordinary days; good fortune is on your side.

However, whenever there is a great calamity in the world, one must go through it to reduce its harm to the world.

If you don't accumulate merit in ordinary times, you will naturally have a place in the great calamity.

Qi didn't need to undergo the tribulation this time. He had accumulated merit, and the heavens and earth issued a warning, intending to let him withdraw.

Unexpectedly, Qi took the initiative to enter the calamity to investigate the reason for the warning, and later summoned Di Jun and Tai Yi.

Di Jun and Tai Yi then implicated Fu Xi and Nuwa, thus bringing together five people who were not originally involved in the calamity.

If Di Jun and Tai Yi had no prayers, they could simply sit on the Sun Star and watch the changing winds and clouds, or go down the mountain to casually strike at the beast tide.

Nuwa and Fuxi, protected by the oppressive power of Pangu at Buzhou Mountain, only needed to occasionally clean up the surrounding area to rest easy.

We are now all facing a great calamity; those who overcome it will accumulate great merit and be blessed and protected by a great fortune.

Defeat means death and the end of one's spiritual path, awaiting reincarnation.

The five people were having a banquet in the pavilion in the middle of the pond, and all of them were a little drunk.

Originally, the spirit wine was not supposed to make the five people drunk, but Nuwa used some unknown method to make it much more intoxicating!

Qi and Taiyi played the flute, Fuxi accompanied them with the zither, Dijun tapped his feet to the rhythm, and Nuwa leaned against a pillar, softly harmonizing with the music.

The five were in high spirits, especially Qi, who had not rested for ninety thousand years.

Now that the grand formation is complete, a huge weight has been lifted from my heart, and I can't help but become a bit more unrestrained.

Fortunately, everyone understood, and since they had all worked hard, they relaxed together.

At this moment, thunder rumbled across the Yunmeng Marsh. Everyone looked up in confusion, as there should have been no thunder and rain in the coming days.

Di Jun took out the Hetu Luoshu and waved his hand over it. The surface of the magical treasure rippled like water, revealing the thunderous sound.

A huge white water buffalo was seen swimming in the Yunmeng Marsh, bellowing from the shore.

Its cry can summon thunder from the heavens.

After it came ashore, everyone was able to see the whole picture.

This ox was enormous, with white fur and three tails.

"It's a good material to make a mount."

Fuxi said.

After seeing his appearance, Qi also expressed her approval.

Compared to many other mythical and ferocious beasts, its appearance is more in line with Qi's aesthetic.

Moreover, he was born with the ability to manipulate lightning, so his background can be considered extraordinary.

Seeing that the other four did not respond, he asked, "Is there anyone among you who is interested?"

Taiyi Dijun stated directly that they had no interest in mounts because they were too slow.

Nuwa expressed her dislike for this type of mount, preferring flying birds like the golden phoenix.

Fuxi also stated that he liked mythical beasts like dragon horses, but had no interest in such creatures.

"Since you all don't like it, then I'll take this opportunity."

Pray for a smile.

"Since you have acquired such a fine steed, fellow Daoist, let us drink a cup together."

Fuxi can be described as a master of flattery.

They didn't care about the strange beast's thoughts, nor did they need to. Being able to follow the innate deity was an immense opportunity in itself.

Moreover, the divine power of Yunmengze has spread far and wide over the past tens of thousands of years, so one can imagine what the strange beasts that came at this time were thinking.

"Rumor has it that a great god resides in Yunmeng Marsh. I rushed here with great difficulty. If that were true, I would have already attracted his attention just now."

"Now I just wait for him to call me, and I will bow again and ask to be his mount or attendant. I think he will not refuse."

"If I am fortunate enough to become his disciple, where in this vast world can't I go?"

Thinking of this, Niu Niu excitedly wagged its tail. It was not a Golden Immortal, and the primordial world was too dangerous for it.

His goal in coming here was simply to find a powerful backer so that he could cultivate in peace and avoid the beast tide.

It does not harbor such aspirations to become a disciple.

Normally, disciples of innate deities are only manifestations of the spiritual energy and extraordinary phenomena of heaven and earth.

They have no connection with these innate mythical beasts and ordinary creatures.

Most of them require people with extraordinary backgrounds and amazing luck.

As a naturally born mythical beast, it has a rather extraordinary origin and has the potential to become a mount or a companion.

Ordinary creatures would probably never even see one.

Its goal is to become a mount, seeking a life of comfort, leisure, and peace.

Moreover, as a mount, one can also listen to discussions and usually has a higher seniority.

Even with disciples, the great master dared not underestimate it.

It has inquired with many mythical beasts and found that many experts like this type of mythical beast.

Its body is clean in color, and it has some unusual features. It is also a cow, which is one of the mainstream mounts. The chances are very high!

Qi reached out and grabbed at the air.

The three white bulls appeared out of thin air.

Niu Niu was still a little scared. Seeing that he had been easily caught, he glanced around and immediately knelt down:

"Little Cow greets all the great masters! May I ask if you have any instructions?"

With so many people around, the calf doesn't know which one to worship.

"I find you rather pleasing to the eye. Coincidentally, I'm currently lacking a mount. I wonder if you would be willing?"

Ask a question.

"Thank you for your kind consideration, sir. I am willing!!!"

"Since you agree, find a small island nearby to live on. If I need to go out, I will call you."

Qi didn't care.

It's just a mount; it's not usually needed, but it'll be a means of transportation to banquets later on.

Aside from traveling alone, visiting friends, fighting, or dealing with enemies, this thing is pretty useless.

Seeing that the white ox had gone to find a small island to graze, Qi ignored the little incident and continued to feast with Taiyi and the others.

Niu Niu was extremely excited at this moment. As expected of a great god's dojo, the ground was covered with Ganoderma lucidum and the spiritual energy was abundant.

Little did they know, this was the core of Yunmeng Marsh, the very essence of Yunmeng Marsh.

If it weren't for the enormous cost of building the Great Array Tower, there would be no ordinary creatures in the entire core area.

Only the immortal herbs condense dew, and the spiritual spring flows with a melodious sound.

A super formation turned a wealthy innate deity into one of the poorest.

If the grand formation and spiritual treasures were removed, it could even be said that the poorest innate deity was the one with the most innate divine power.

After all, no innate sacred temple is merely made of Ganoderma lucidum.

Fortunately, Niu Niu's knowledge is limited; if there were any comparisons, he would probably feel disheartened.

"Now that the grand formation is complete, all that remains is to practice it a couple of times, and we will be safe from this great calamity."

Everyone sighed in admiration.
