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

Upon hearing Bodhi Patriarch's words, Qin Ming's eyes flickered.

Bodhi Patriarch was his eldest disciple. After leaving the mountain, he established a Taoist temple at the Slanting Moon and Three Stars Cave on Fangcun Mountain.

Like Shangqing Tongtian, he taught without discrimination, accepting all who came, whether immortals, demons, Buddhas, Taoists, humans, monsters, spirits, or ghosts, as long as they sincerely sought the Dao.

The only difference is that Patriarch Bodhi does not accept disciples who are cruel and entangled in karma.

Now, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the number of disciples at the Xieyue Sanxing Cave has increased.

Besides his two direct disciples, Guang Chengzi and Pan Wang, his disciples also include eight generations of inner disciples: Guang, Da, Zhi, Hui, Zhen, Ru, Xing, and Hai.

The strongest generation of disciples of the Guang generation, and even the least skilled among them, were at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

This level of strength is no weaker than the sect established by the Three Pure Ones.

So, what is Bodhi Patriarch planning when he suddenly decides to lead his disciples into the Great Tribulation?

Upon further reflection, Qin Ming realized something.

The path practiced by Patriarch Bodhi is the path of formlessness.

The so-called formlessness is form, and the lawlessness is law.

Where the mind goes, all things are integrated.

Bodhi Patriarch's cultivation has now reached a bottleneck. To break through, he must integrate with the myriad paths.

In the next great calamity, both Hongjun and Yangmei Patriarch will get involved.

With these two top-tier experts, the next great calamity won't be much worse than the Lich Calamity.

At that time, there will surely be many powerful cultivators participating.

Bodhi Patriarch could use this to integrate into the paths of these cultivators, thereby advancing the evolution of the path of formlessness.

Meanwhile, as the number of disciples in the Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave gradually increases, they will not receive proper training, and their cultivation will stagnate.

Especially for disciples of the Guang generation, breaking through to the realm of Great Luo Golden Immortal or even Hunyuan Golden Immortal requires going through many hardships.

The Great Calamity is indeed terrifying.

However, this is also a rare opportunity.

Even if you are not the main character of the Great Tribulation, you can still use the energy of the Great Tribulation to quickly improve your cultivation.

Even if we take a step back and say that...

The next great tribulation will be the tribulation of sealing immortals.

The cultivators who die in the Great Tribulation will not perish, but will be reborn in the Celestial Court and become immortals of the Celestial Court.

What is the Celestial Court?

The Celestial Court is the place of order established by Qin Ming.

Qin Ming will not mistreat his disciples once they enter the Celestial Court.

This situation presents no disadvantage whatsoever for the disciples of the Slanting Moon Three Stars Cave.

After a moment's thought, Qin Ming nodded:

"Fine, since you have this idea, then do as you wish."

"When you get back, make good preparations."

"The next great calamity will not be formed from the evolution of heaven and earth."

"But it was also deduced by Fellow Daoist Hongjun, Fellow Daoist Yangmei, and myself using the war disaster of the human race. The power of the Great Calamity is in no way inferior to the Great Calamity of the Lich King, and may even be greater."

"At present, Fellow Daoist Hongjun and Fellow Daoist Yangmei have not yet revealed their methods. Even I, as their master, am not sure how they will plan the Great Tribulation."

"If you are not fully prepared, your disciples may suffer heavy losses."

Upon hearing Qin Ming's words, Patriarch Bodhi nodded solemnly.

After dismissing Patriarch Bodhi, Qin Ming returned to his body, opened his eyes, and looked at Nuwa who was watching him with a half-smile. Qin Ming felt slightly embarrassed, coughed lightly, and slowly said:

"Fellow Daoist, the first calamity for humanity is about to descend. I wonder if the Hetu and Luoshu are ready?"

Upon hearing this, Nuwa smiled gently:

"Fuxi is Nuwa's elder brother. This matter concerns his attainment of enlightenment; how could Nuwa not be concerned?"

"Don't worry, everything is arranged."

Seeing this, Qin Ming nodded, then said no more and closed his eyes to continue working on the creation of the world.

Meanwhile, as Qin Ming once again entered seclusion, Fuxi began his path to governing the world.

Previously, despite the establishment of a marriage system, the human race remained in utter chaos.

The issue of surnames, in particular, severely hampered the human race's ability to issue commands.

Thus, Fuxi traveled among the various tribes of the human race, spending over a thousand years establishing nine major surnames for the human race.

They are respectively Feng, Ji, Jiang, Yao, Gui, Si, Yun, Ying, and Ji.

Each human being, upon birth, is given a name by their elders based on one of these nine surnames.

This greatly increases the administrative efficiency of the human race, preventing situations where summoning one person results in hundreds or thousands responding.

Meanwhile, the human race gradually evolved from these nine major surnames into tens of thousands of surnames.

As a result of these developments, the human race flourished even more.

After completing these tasks, Fuxi returned to the human capital and, without the slightest slackening, continued to handle human affairs with the assistance of many great human sages.

During this time, Fuxi observed that the human race lived a very monotonous life, working at sunrise and resting at sunset.

Especially those humans who are unable to cultivate any techniques after birth.

Unable to cultivate, they spend their time hunting and gathering wild fruits, then have nothing to do but wait for nightfall to fall before going back to sleep.

After much deliberation, Fuxi drew inspiration from his own Fuxi Qin (a type of zither) to create musical instruments such as the Qinse (a type of zither), the Tao Xun (another type of zither), and the bamboo flute. He also used these instruments to compose musical scores such as the Song of Nets, greatly enriching the entertainment facilities of the human race.

After promoting the human race, he received much praise from the human race.

Another five thousand years have passed.

At this moment, Fuxi has served as the supreme ruler of the human race for over 90,000 years.

Fuxi observed the stars at night and, based on their evolution, created the Jia calendar, which determined the four seasons, ensuring that the human race could record years and months without confusion, and that the length of the night was known. This eliminated the previous cumbersome method of recording events by tying ropes, and gave the human race a profound understanding of time.

As Fuxi made more and more contributions to the human race, the human fortune he received also continued to increase.

Under these circumstances, Fuxi's cultivation level changed daily, from having no cultivation at all to breaking through to Celestial Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, Golden Immortal, and now to the early stage of Primordial Golden Immortal, becoming a powerful figure among the human race.

Even so, it was because Fuxi did not cultivate diligently and was busy dealing with human affairs every day.

Otherwise, Fuxi's cultivation would at least have reached the level of a half-step Grand Luo Golden Immortal.

Even so, the great beings of the prehistoric world were secretly amazed by Fuxi's cultivation speed.

It should be understood that for an ordinary person to break through from the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm to the Daluo Golden Immortal realm, at least one eon of accumulation is required.

If a Great Luo Golden Immortal wants to break through to the Primordial Golden Immortal, they cannot do so even if they cultivate diligently for a lifetime without the right opportunity.

Fuxi so easily reached a level of cultivation that ordinary cultivators could never achieve in their entire lives. How could all the great powers of the prehistoric world not be envious?

On the other hand, Fuxi was unaware of the brilliant ideas of the powerful beings of the primordial world. Even after breaking through to the early stage of the Primordial Golden Immortal realm, Fuxi did not slack off in the slightest.

He continued to govern the human race diligently.

However, just as Fuxi became the supreme ruler of the human race and was about to achieve his goal, the human race encountered an unprecedented disaster.

The Imperial City of the Human Race.

Fuxi, who was dealing with the conflicts between the various tribes of the human race and pondering solutions, suddenly felt a pang of fear.

Before Fuxi could even begin his calculations, a great sage of the human race suddenly burst in, his face filled with panic:

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! An earth dragon has risen up within the territory of the Fengyuan tribe, and everyone in the tribe, from top to bottom, has perished."

Upon hearing this, Fuxi stood up in shock.

Before Fuxi could reply, another great sage of the human race looked alarmed:

"Your Majesty, a torrential rain fell near the Guize tribe, and the river breached the dam, flooding the Guize tribe. In order to resist the Nine Heavens True Water in the river, the Guize tribe chief Gui Xian's physical body was washed away, and no one in the Guize tribe escaped unscathed."

"Reporting to His Majesty the Emperor..."

As one piece of bad news after another arrived, Fuxi swayed and sorrowfully used his magic to condense the Water Mirror Technique.

Instantly, the miserable appearance of the various human tribes was displayed on the water mirror.

Countless humans were plunged into endless lamentation in the face of major natural disasters.
