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

The primordial wilderness, Mount Tai.

Although the human race has long since left Mount Tai, its political core remains in the imperial city.

However, this place remains extremely important to the human race.

Because this mountain is where the human race first lived and multiplied.

At the same time, it is also because this mountain carries the history of human development and its flourishing fortune.

Therefore, Mount Tai has always been the ancestral mountain in the hearts of the human race, a sacred existence in the hearts of countless people.

And this is also where the core fighting force of the human race is located.

Over countless years, most of the most skilled individuals born from the human race have gathered here.

The core of the sect established by the Primordial Human Race is also located here.

Among them, the Martial Sect established by Qin Ming, the Human Sect established by Nuwa, and the sects founded by the Three Ancestors all gathered on Mount Tai.

In addition, the twelve zodiac guardian deities and eleven zodiac guardian beasts created by Qin Yu have also taken root and cultivated on the ancestral mountain.

It is no exaggeration to say that if all the humans in the ancestral mountain were to come out, even if all the major saintly sects joined forces with the myriad races of the prehistoric world, they would not be a match for them.

Shennong was defeated by Chiyou. If Xuanyuan had not led the Youxiong tribe army to his rescue in time, he himself might have died at Chiyou's hands.

This situation enraged Shennong.

In his view, Chi You was dividing the human race.

This move crossed Shennong's bottom line, and he was determined to defeat Chiyou and show him just how wrong his ideas were.

With the strength of the imperial city alone, let alone defeating Chi You, they couldn't even defend themselves.

After all, humanity has enjoyed peace for too long, and the comfortable life has long since corrupted them.

The imperial army's fighting strength is weak.

In contrast, the Jiuli army was composed of brave and skilled warriors who were adept at using military tactics.

Faced with the charge of the Jiuli army, the imperial army collapsed at the first contact.

Therefore, Shennong had no choice but to come to Zushan for help.

After several transfers via the teleportation array, we finally arrived at the foot of the ancestral mountain.

After Shennong paid homage to the ancestral mountain three times, he proclaimed in a loud voice:

"The current sovereign of the human race, Shennong Lieshan, has come to the ancestral mountain today to ask for help. I request that the ancestors of the human race release the great formation so that I and Ji Xuanyuan, the great sage of the Youxiong tribe, may enter the ancestral mountain."

As Shennong finished speaking, Mount Tai, which had been shrouded in mist, began to tremble.

The thick fog parted in an instant, revealing a road that led straight to the mountaintop.

Upon seeing this, Shennong immediately climbed up the road.

Ji Xuanyuan was the same.

However, unlike Shennong, Ji Xuanyuan's heart was pounding harder the closer he got to the mountain peak.

The blood in my body gradually began to boil.

A series of inexplicable voices lingered in Ji Xuanyuan's mind.

"What happened?"

Why did you suddenly decide to do this?

"Could it be that some great opportunity awaits me here?"

As Ji Xuanyuan was puzzled, the sword tower, which had been sealed for several eons, suddenly began to tremble.

A series of resounding sword cries echoed across the mountaintop.

At the same time, the will of humanity manifested, and a righteous spirit permeated the entire ancestral mountain.

Mount Tai trembled incessantly as a result.

The zombie clan, suppressed at the bottom of Mount Tai, was struck by the sword's cry and the righteous energy, and immediately let out a mournful roar, clutching their heads and rolling around in agony.

The ghosts and wolves howled in the Netherworld, emitting eerie and chilling screams.

The eighteen levels of hell erupted in chaos, and the aura of calamity permeated the nine netherworlds.

The Heavenly Court was bathed in radiant light, with countless chains of Heavenly Law spreading out, their power pressing down on the thirty-three heavens.

In the northern continent, a golden dragon representing the destiny of the demon race suddenly manifested in the world, its eyes filled with blood and its whole body trembling, as if some terrifying being was about to be born.

Strange phenomena permeated the void, causing the powerful beings of the primordial world to look at each other in bewilderment and turn their gazes toward the human territory.

However, Mount Tai is the ancestral mountain of the human race, and it contains a vibrant human destiny.

Even the Three Pure Ones and other sages could not see through it.

Even with calculation, it is impossible to predict the exact details.

Just as the powerful beings of the primordial world were puzzled, the Primordial Cultivator of the Innate Human Race sensed the abnormality of Mount Tai and suddenly awoke from his seclusion:

"The Lord of Destiny arrives at the Ancestral Mountain, and the Divine Sword is born."

Upon realizing this, Yuan Xiu was overjoyed.

After all, this sword carries the shame of humanity, the blood and souls of countless humans, and their very spirits.

Countless great sages of the human race died at the hands of the demon race, their flesh and souls tormented by the demon race every day.

If it weren't for Xuanjun, the great sages of the human race, the many saints of the human race, the Holy Father Qin Ming, and the Holy Mother Nuwa washing the divine sword with their own blood, those human race members who died tragically would probably not have been able to reincarnate.

It could only be sealed within the sword, suffering torment every day.

Now, the once-powerful Sword of Slaughter has been transformed into a divine artifact by the blood of human sages and has been suppressed beneath Mount Tai.

To show their respect, the innate human race built a sword tower and offered sacrifices to it every day, waiting for the destined master of the divine sword to arrive.

But all these years, this chosen one has yet to appear.

And this divine sword that guards the human race has fallen silent.

But now, the divine sword, which has been dormant for many years, is about to be born. How could Yuan Xiu not be excited?

Not only Yuan Xiu, but also other innate human race members and powerful human beings gathered excitedly at the mountain peak, paying homage to the ever-cracking sword tower:

"We respectfully welcome the divine sword to the world!"

As the words fell, the sword tower shattered with a deafening roar, and righteous energy mixed with immense imperial power surged wildly into the dark hole revealed by the broken sword tower.

At the same time, the golden dragon representing the human race's destiny manifested, emitting joyful dragon roars.

A powerful surge of human destiny erupted forth.

A divine sword that had been dormant for many years suddenly soared into the air, radiating a dazzling golden light.

Under the influence of the human race's fortune, the originally unadorned divine sword revealed mysterious images.

One side of the divine sword is carved with mountains, rivers, plants, and lakes, while the other side is carved with the sun, moon, and stars.

One side of the sword hilt is engraved with the techniques of farming and animal husbandry, while the other side is engraved with the strategy of unifying the world.

A powerful aura of harmony between heaven and man burst forth.

The group of innate humans stared with fervent eyes at the divine sword in the void.

Just then, the divine sword circled in the air, emitting a series of light sword cries, before shooting down the mountain.

Upon seeing this, the group of innate humans immediately used their magic to follow closely behind.

On the other side, Ji Xuanyuan's heart was pounding.

Before I could think it through, a golden light suddenly appeared.

Ji Xuanyuan was startled and hurriedly summoned his magical artifact to prepare to defend himself.

However, a clanging sound rang out, and his magical sword snapped in two like tofu.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Xuanyuan felt a sharp pain in his palm, and a drop of essence blood was involuntarily forced out from his heart, flowing along the wound and merging into the golden light.

In an instant, golden light shone brightly, and soaring sword energy filled the entire void.

The golden divine sword changed its appearance again, with the characters "Xuanyuan" appearing on its blade.

The golden divine sword kept circling around Ji Xuanyuan, seemingly extremely joyful.

Ji Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then reached out and beckoned.

The next moment, the golden divine sword changed direction, and the hilt came into Ji Xuanyuan's right hand on its own.

The moment he grasped the longsword, the Human Emperor's Sacred Sword Technique and the Human Emperor's World-Suppressing Scripture within his sea of ​​consciousness rapidly activated, empowering Ji Xuanyuan and helping him quickly improve his cultivation.

When Shennong saw this, he was overjoyed and became even more certain that Ji Xuanyuan was the successor he was looking for.

"Is he the destined master of the divine sword?"

"I wonder if he can bear the destiny of the divine sword."

"This divine sword was forged by Her Majesty the Empress by combining the essence and blood of great sages, saints, and the Holy Father and Holy Mother of the human race. The fact that it is choosing a master now means that he is destined to be the one chosen by heaven."

"The great prosperity of our human race is in sight; may the Dao bless our human race."

"Haha, with this person here, our human race will have another great power to prove the Dao, and those human ancestors who died unjustly will continue to protect the human race in another way."

Upon seeing the divine sword recognize Ji Xuanyuan as its master, the group of innate humans and human experts immediately began to discuss it amongst themselves.
