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

The jet-black scythe formed by the law of reincarnation contained immense divine power. As soon as it collided with the innate formation, it unleashed a deafening explosion.

Ripples spread out, and this powerful innate formation was completely shattered after only a few breaths.

"Brother Qin Ming, am I amazing?"

Seeing that the innate formation had been broken, Houtu came to Qin Ming's side in a charmingly coquettish manner, took his arm, and asked him in a spoiled tone.

"Amazing, of course it's amazing."

Qin Ming gathered his scattered thoughts, rubbed his delicate nose, and praised her.

Although Houtu bears the responsibility of opening up the earth's passages, evolving the six realms of reincarnation, and perfecting the primordial world.

But there is still time for all of this.

At least, before Houtu cultivates to the peak of the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm, there is no such worry.

He still has plenty of time to find a way to change Houtu's destiny.

Therefore, Qin Ming kept this matter to himself, so as not to cause Houtu any worry if she found out.

"Hehe, let's go in and see what's inside."

Hearing Qin Ming's praise, Hou Tu narrowed her eyes and smiled radiantly as she walked side by side with Qin Ming into the broken formation.

Within the dilapidated formation lies a place brimming with innate spiritual energy.

Inside, the spiritual flowers and herbs swayed constantly in the wind, as if each was vying for attention.

Amidst the spiritual flowers and herbs, there was a bamboo grove.

"Strange, how could such a powerful innate formation only contain these ordinary spiritual roots?"

Looking at the spiritual flowers and herbs and the bamboo forest in front of her, a look of doubt appeared in Houtu's beautiful eyes.

The formation we encountered before could only be broken by a Primordial Golden Immortal.

Even so, it was only because her cultivation of the Law of Reincarnation had reached 25% completion.

It is much stronger than a typical early-stage Primordial Golden Immortal.

Even so, it still took her some time to break the spell.

How could Houtu not be surprised that such a powerful formation contained only ordinary spiritual roots?

"No, the real treasure is that bamboo grove ahead!"

"It does know how to hide itself. If I didn't possess the Great Dao Divine Eye, I probably wouldn't have been able to easily discover its existence."

Thinking of this, Qin Ming circulated his magical power and activated the laws of power: "Eight Fists of the Immortal King!"

"Boom!!!"

The eight fist energies, combined with the laws of force, converged into a torrent, crashing into the bamboo forest with unstoppable force.

In an instant, the entire bamboo forest vanished, leaving only a single, towering bamboo emitting a soft white light.

This bamboo has nine sections and emits a milky white halo, with a sense of creation emanating from it.

"A top-grade innate spiritual root, the Nine-Jointed Creation Bamboo!"

"If it is refined, it might become a high-grade innate spiritual weapon. The staff brings forth creation, so it would be quite a good item."

Qin Ming smiled faintly.

"Unfortunately, neither Brother Qin Ming nor I have cultivated the Laws of Creation, so no matter how good this item is, it is useless to us."

Houtu said with a regretful expression.

"It's alright. We are useless, but if we take in disciples who are proficient in the laws of creation in the future, we can bestow them upon them."

As he spoke, Qin Ming channeled his magic power, pulled up two of the Nine-Section Creation Bamboo stalks, and placed them into the Chaos Pearl for nourishment.

"Let's go, there's nothing else here... Huh?"

Just as Qin Ming was about to leave with Hou Tu, a wave of thought suddenly entered his senses.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I never expected that a living being would be born here. You're quite sensible, knowing my divine powers!"

"Very well, it is fate that we have met. I happen to need two young servants to attend to me, so I will enlighten you today."

As he spoke, Qin Ming pointed out with one finger, and streams of the Pure World Laws merged with the dense chaotic spiritual energy, swirling around his fingertip.

The Purification Law, imbued with chaotic spiritual energy, precisely struck the two spiritual herbs.

The next moment, nourished by the Purification Law and the Chaos Spiritual Energy, the two spiritual herbs swayed rapidly.

Before long, the two spiritual herbs transformed into a boy and a girl, appearing before Qin Ming and Hou Tu.

"Thank you for your guidance, sir."

The boy and girl looked at Qin Ming with joy and bowed in greeting.

"It's alright. Would you all like to follow me and become my attendants?"

Seeing this, Qin Ming waved his hand, took out two low-grade innate spiritual treasure robes, dressed the two of them, and then asked.

"The child is willing."

Upon hearing this, the boy and girl exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement.

Previously, their minds had already sensed Qin Ming's power; otherwise, they would not have risked revealing their own consciousness.

After all, if spiritual roots like theirs were to develop consciousness, they could easily be extracted by cultivators to refine spiritual treasures, using their consciousness to enhance the spirituality of those treasures.

"In that case, you shall be called Jinmu, and you shall be called Yinsang!"

Upon seeing this, Qin Ming immediately bestowed names upon the two.

"Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, sir!"

The boy Jinmu and the girl Yinsang bowed in gratitude with great excitement.

"Alright, there was a primordial array protecting you before, which is why you couldn't sense the divine power of the Great God Pangu."

"Now that you have taken human form, you will also take human form. Once you leave me, you will be crushed to death by the divine power of the Great God Pangu. Go inside first and take care of the spiritual roots inside for me."

After waving his hand to signal the two to stand up, Qin Ming summoned the Chaos Pearl, opened an opening, and gestured for the two to go inside.

Upon hearing this, Jin Mu and Yin Sang responded and obediently entered the Chaos Pearl.

"Let's go, these ordinary spiritual flowers and herbs are of little use!"

After sending the two into the Chaos Pearl, Qin Ming looked at Houtu and smiled faintly.

"OK!"

Houtu had no objections and once again joined hands with Qin Ming to explore the opportunities within Buzhou Mountain.

However, although Buzhou Mountain has many opportunities, it is not yet time for it to emerge. Even Qin Ming's Great Dao Divine Eye cannot see through the innate divine array hidden within Buzhou Mountain.

Either it's a matter of fate, or unless the true god appears in the world, those spiritual roots will never reveal their aura.

Even the Twenty-Fourth Grade Creation Lotus, which Qin Ming most desired, they had searched for for thousands of years without success.

Given this situation, Qin Ming could only accept his fate, despite his regret.

He planned to try his luck at Buzhou Mountain again during the Dragon-Han Calamity and the conflict between Dao and Demon, when the Three Pure Ones were born.

If he were to obtain the Twenty-Fourth Grade Creation Lotus, his foundation might be completely transformed into that of a Chaos God or Demon, which would greatly benefit his subsequent cultivation.

Arriving at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, Qin Ming looked at Houtu, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Houtu, do you intend to return to the bottom of Buzhou Mountain to take care of your younger brothers and sisters, or will you continue to travel with me through the prehistoric world?"

Upon hearing this, Houtu remained silent for a moment before raising her head: "There, protected by the Boundless Purification Array set up by Brother Qin Ming, and with the blessing of Father God, my younger brothers and sisters are safe. I'd better travel the prehistoric world with Brother Qin Ming."

"Furthermore, I'd also like to visit Brother Qin Ming's cave."

"That's fine then, let's go."

Upon seeing this, Qin Ming smiled, took Houtu's soft hand, and sped away towards the outside of Buzhou Mountain.

However, they were stopped before they could go very far.

"Hmph, you've managed to hide for over ten thousand years, and now you've finally shown yourself. You dared to kill members of my Qilin clan; today is your death day."

The person blocking the way was Huo Lin, the son of Lin Zu.

Now the world belongs to the three races.

As the masters of the Great Calamity, the three races developed extremely rapidly.

With the added fortune gained from the Great Calamity of the Ferocious Beasts, the strength of the three races changes daily.

This situation also made the three tribes increasingly arrogant and domineering.

In their view, apart from the remaining two races, no one in the entire prehistoric world dared to offend them.

Furthermore, the obscured aura of calamity caused the cultivators of the three races to lose their sense of destiny, leading them to fight each other at the slightest disagreement, displaying extreme tyranny.
