Houtu is infatuated with me, so I made her lean against the wall.

Xihe's plan was extremely insidious.

It's more agonizing than forcing a couple to break up.

Two people in love live under the same roof, able to see each other just by turning around, yet they cannot recognize each other or confide in one another.

The torment involved is unimaginable.

Hou Yi was in this situation at the moment.

He was lucid and could see Chang'e every day.

But he couldn't utter a word, nor could he make any movement other than cutting down the laurel tree.

He knew, however, that cutting down the laurel tree would harm Chang'e, but he couldn't stop his body from doing so.

For Hou Yi, who deeply loved Chang'e, this was more painful than being torn to pieces.

However, the only way to stop this is to cut down the laurel tree.

But the laurel tree is connected to Chang'e; if the laurel tree dies, Chang'e will also die.

This is a dead end.

Seeing this, Xihe felt a surge of satisfaction at having avenged her great grudge. She then slipped into the depths of the Taiyin Star and began a quiet period of seclusion.

Now that her great revenge has been achieved, Xihe has finally fulfilled a long-cherished wish.

She will now intensify her training.

Although she had previously sworn an oath to Heaven to sever ties with Di Jun.

Ultimately, even a single night of marriage can bring a hundred nights of kindness.

It's impossible to get Xihe to completely give up on Dijun.

With the Lich War imminent, she didn't want anything to happen to Di Jun.

Therefore, I can only intensify my training.

The mortal realm, the territory of the human race.

Bodhi Patriarch brought Guang Chengzi to the ancestral mountain of the human race.

Looking at the scene reflected in the water mirror, where Hou Yi and Chang'e meet but do not recognize each other, Guang Chengzi's eyes showed a hint of pity: "Teacher, since you have already taken action, why not resolve this matter completely?"

"With your abilities, Master, rescuing Hou Yi and Chang'e from the demon race shouldn't be difficult. Why then?"

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Bodhi stroked his beard and said, "Although this is a calamity, if you overcome it, it will transform into an immense opportunity."

"When I brought you out before, it was because I had foreseen that Hou Yi and Chang'e were destined to be with our Chaos Three Immortal Islands, and I came to guide them to the Chaos Three Immortal Islands."

"However, upon closer inspection, I discovered that Hou Yi possessed a seed of the Law of Force hidden deep within his body."

"Once the seed of the law grows strong, blossoms and bears fruit, Hou Yi's cultivation will skyrocket, and proving the Dao will be a piece of cake."

"However, for a seed of law to grow strong, it needs a vast amount of energy and a steadfast heart devoted to the Dao; otherwise, it cannot grow at all."

"Previously, Hou Yi shot down the suns and gained a massive amount of merit, which became the nourishment for unlocking the Law of Power."

"But that's not enough."

"Therefore, I will cast a magic seal, and when Hou Yi transforms into Wu Gang and unconsciously chops down the laurel tree, I will capture Hou Yi's true spirit and send him into the cycle of reincarnation. He will undergo the baptism of reincarnation and pass through 129,600 tribulations. When the work is completed, Hou Yi will be able to soar into the sky."

Guang Chengzi was startled.

The Law of Power—this is the cultivation path of the great god Pangu.

He never expected that Hou Yi would have such an opportunity.

Wouldn't that mean he'd have another junior brother at the level of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal in the future?

While Guang Chengzi was lost in thought, Bodhi flicked him on the head: "Stop thinking nonsense."

"If you want to take Hou Yi as your disciple, I am not qualified."

"In the entire prehistoric world, apart from your grandmaster, there is no one else who can take Hou Yi as a disciple. Even Houtu, the Goddess of Supreme Benevolence, and the Dao Ancestor are not qualified."

Upon hearing this, Guang Chengzi chuckled awkwardly, then turned to look at Chang'e, who was regaining her sentience in the Moon Palace, and asked in confusion, "Then according to what you said, Master, doesn't that mean Chang'e will never be able to cultivate again?"

Chang'e's origin is connected to the laurel tree. Now that the laurel tree is being destroyed by Hou Yi, even though Chang'e is protected by the Guanghan Palace, it is impossible for her to restore her origin and regain her former cultivation.

"No!"

"Look!"

Bodhi Patriarch activated his magical power, and a beam of divine light shot out.

The divine light pierced through the sky, soaring across endless space and silently disappearing into Chang'e's sea of ​​consciousness.

Instantly, a dazzling divine light emanated from Chang'e's body.

"Teacher, this is..."

Guang Chengzi looked at Bodhi Patriarch with a puzzled expression.

"This is the origin of Taiyin, and it contains an ancient Moon God Technique."

"It was left behind by your grandmaster before he left."

"With this Taiyin Origin and the Primordial Moon Goddess Technique, Chang'e can make up for the damage by diligently cultivating. At the same time, she can quickly improve her cultivation by taking advantage of the extreme Yin energy in the Guanghan Palace."

After a pause, Patriarch Bodhi continued, "Moreover, as one of the Taiyin Star Goddesses, Chang'e is in charge of the eternal night of the primordial world. Whenever the moon rabbit rises high, bringing the power of moonlight to the primordial world, she can obtain merits in the three realms of heaven, earth, and humanity. Over time, Chang'e will surely become a true immortal of merits."

"Alright, we should go and find your next junior brother now."

Having said that, Patriarch Bodhi stood up, bid farewell to the Primordial Human Race, and embarked on his search once again with Guang Chengzi.

While Bodhi Patriarch was searching for his second disciple, the Lich King was busily preparing for the final battle.

East Sea, Dragon Ruins.

Ao Guang sat cross-legged deep within the Dragon Ruins, surrounded by wisps of dragon laws and creation laws.

Indeed, this is the law of creation.

Before Qin Ming left, he gave Ao Guang some pointers, saying that his opportunity lay with the Dragon Clan.

At the same time, he was sent to consult Nuwa.

At first, Ao Guang was unable to comprehend it.

After all, his cultivation path was completely opposite to Nuwa's, so why did he ask Nuwa for advice?

However, as time went by, especially when the Styx River created the Asuras and established the Asura race, Ao Guang became increasingly enlightened.

Dragons already face difficulties in reproduction, and pure-blooded dragons are even rarer.

It may take tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years for a new pure-blooded dragon race to be born.

Since the Dragon-Han Great Calamity, pure-blooded dragons have become increasingly rare.

Coupled with the intense calamity and karmic power, even with the protection of the Celestial Court, the situation remains far from optimistic.

Today, many mountains and rivers in the primordial world are ruled by hybrid dragons.

Even though they could bring rain and clouds to the primordial world, the merit they gained was minimal.

Therefore, Ao Guang gradually realized that what he needed to do was to increase the number of dragons, enhance their fortune, and allow them to control the major waterways throughout the prehistoric world.

After several cycles of contemplation, Ao Guang finally gained some insight.

As the laws of dragons and creation surrounding Ao Guang grew stronger, the pool of merit and the gate carved with nine dragon totems in front of him became increasingly imbued with their aura.

After an unknown amount of time, when the Merit Pool and the gate burst forth with dazzling divine light, Ao Guang suddenly opened his eyes, revealed his true form, grabbed the Merit Pool and the gate with his dragon claws, and flew out of the Dragon Ruins like lightning, landing on the East Sea.

"By the Heavenly Dao, I am Ao Guang, the current patriarch of the Dragon Clan and the Dragon King of the East Sea. Seeing that the Dragon Clan is unable to effectively bring rain to the prehistoric world, I have specially created the Dragon Transformation Pool and the Dragon Gate."

"Any mixed-blood dragon that performs deeds that benefit the primordial world can enter the Dragon Transformation Pool, where it can shed its mixed blood and become a pure-blood dragon."

"All aquatic creatures that cross the Dragon Gate can transform into true dragons of the Nine Heavens and become members of the dragon race, which is recognized by the Heavenly Dao."

As Ao Guang finished speaking, the Dragon Transformation Pool and the Dragon Gate erupted with a dazzling divine light.

The Dragon Transformation Pool plunged towards the East Sea.

A dragon hybrid, a dragon-turtle hybrid, happened to be next to the Dragon Transformation Pool. It entered the pool and soon transformed into a four-clawed earth dragon.

At the same time, the Dragon Gate split into countless forms, hovering above the major waterways throughout the primordial world.

There was a carp spirit that had cultivated for ten thousand years. Looking at the Dragon Gate above the water vein, it channeled its magic power and leaped toward the Dragon Gate.

Along the way, lightning gathered everywhere, constantly striking the carp spirit's body, causing its scales to fall off and its skin to tear open.

However, even so, the carp spirit did not give up and tried again and again.

Finally, it successfully leaped over the Dragon Gate, transforming into a five-clawed golden dragon, soaring through the void.

This scene unfolded across the primordial wilderness.

In an instant, the dragon race's fortune soared.

Heavenly virtues and merits descended.

The primordial purple energy within Ao Guang's sea of ​​consciousness trembled, combining with his merits and merging into Ao Guang's primordial spirit.

Instantly, Ao Guang's aura surged, and all the prehistoric beings were forced to prostrate themselves on the ground.
