Primordial Era: I, the Creation Lotus, will absolutely not be struck this time!

Chapter 103 The Undying Primordial Beginning, Kunpeng's Merit Completed

At that very moment, Nuwa's figure suddenly appeared.

Yuanshi retreated several steps before stopping.

Looking at Nuwa, whose temperament has changed drastically, Yuanshi felt envy, jealousy, and resentment.

Yuanshi looked at Nuwa and refused to bow to the sage.

Nuwa had not intervened to stop him, and Yuanshi was now confident again.

He felt that this was the great trend that Hongjun had mentioned, and Nuwa dared not stop him again and again.

Nuwa, you're just a step ahead. I, Yuanshi, will eventually be on equal footing with you, and my origins are better than yours, which means I will surpass you sooner or later.

Therefore, Yuanshi was quite assertive at this time.

Believing he understood everything, Yuanshi stood with his hands behind his back, mimicking Laozi by closing his eyes slightly.

"Nuwa, my path is here, how dare you obstruct me?"

This surprised even Nuwa, who had just appeared.

Who do you think you are to talk to me like that?

With a raised eyebrow, he immediately wanted to drive Yuanshi out.

But then she thought, wasn't it precisely because she liked Yuanshi's brainless nature that she chose to make him a saint?

Nuwa suppressed the urge to slap Yuanshi to death and said, "Within ten Yuanhui, no one shall disturb the reproduction and life of the human race."

"Go."

After saying this, Nuwa waved her hand, and Yuanshi flew backward.

Nuwa looked up and glanced at it.

At Zixiao Palace, Hongjun witnessed this scene at Shouyang Mountain.

"Heavenly Dao, don't be hasty. Nuwa is asking for something in return. Do you expect her to give it to you just because she wants it?"

Hongjun had already refused to make a sacrifice for Laozi and Yuanshi to achieve sainthood once before.

This time, there was even less hesitation in accepting the second rejection.

It's just a matter of waiting a little longer. Once the ten Yuanhui (a unit of time) that Nuwa originally set out for has arrived, Nuwa will have no reason to stop it.

At most, it might affect the fate of the human race, but that's a conflict between Nuwa and Yuanshi, and has nothing to do with him.

Of course, the most important thing is that Hongjun has already bet on Zhunti, and Zhunti's chance to become a saint does not lie with the human race.

As long as one attains sainthood through spiritual enlightenment, with Zhunti's intellect, he will surely discover his own path to sainthood.

The only problem now is that Tongtian cannot become a saint.

"Qingyi, aren't you worried that Tongtian hasn't become a saint?"

In Hongjun's eyes, Qingyi was a loyal follower of Pangu.

He devoted himself to the cause of the ancient world.

Tongtian was the only one among the three beings transformed from Pangu who was close to Pangu, and even called Qingyi "uncle".

He refused to believe that Qingyi would stand by and watch Tongtian fail to become a saint.

He believed that Qing Yi would have to pay the price, which would weaken Qing Yi's strength. He was confident that Qing Yi had such means.

Qingyi was unaware of Hongjun's ulterior motives.

At this moment, Qingyi had a miniature stone tablet hanging on his waist, which read "Pangu was here".

This is a rubbing of the Pangu Mausoleum stele that he made. It can also achieve the effect of shielding heavenly secrets, but the effect is weakened and has a time limit.

Qingyi usually keeps it in his own little world and only takes it out when he needs it.

For example, when he came to Shouyang Mountain, he would take out this small stone tablet and hang it on his body.

Even though Hongjun could see him here with his own eyes, he was still hanging there.

The goal was to prevent Hongjun from predicting his actions, and to portray Hongjun as a disgusting figure.

"Teacher, it seems that Hongjun has truly abandoned Laozi and Yuanshi."

Nuwa returned at this moment and shook her head at Qingyi.

"It's alright, just follow your plan."

"Yes."

Nuwa nodded.

Countless miles outside Shouyang Mountain, Yuanshi looked at the dilapidated cave dwelling before him with a grim expression.

He started from here, tentatively exploring step by step, and finally stepped into Shouyang Mountain.

After thousands of years of travel, they were unexpectedly brought back in an instant.

"Nuwa, you are going against the will of the primordial world!"

Yuanshi's anger towards Nuwa reached its peak.

"Although you created the human race, since they came into existence in this primordial world, they are primordial beings. What right do you have to prevent me from contacting the human race?"

Are you afraid I'll surpass you?

Yuan Shi felt that this was the only possible outcome.

"You've got the wrong idea. I, Yuanshi of Kunlun Mountain, am a person of great destiny. You cannot stop me."

Primordial was nearly driven mad by the desire for that glimmer of opportunity within the human race.

They immediately headed towards Shouyang Mountain again.

Nuwa had already sent him out twice, so he didn't dare to let Nuwa send him out a third time.

Yuanshi's words and actions elicited a soft chuckle from Qingyi, Nuwa, and Tongtian, who had been watching him closely.

"Tongtian, you really suffered back then."

Even Nuwa, who had become the Holy Mother of the Human Race, made a joke at this moment.

Tongtian blushed deeply, clearly embarrassed.

He used to call this guy "Second Brother" so affectionately.

Although we had already overestimated Yuan Shi's ego and confidence, his arrogance was still overwhelming.

"A clown."

Tongtian curled his lip and used a phrase he had learned from Qingyi.

"Alright, I'll leave this place to you. I'll know when Yuanshi becomes a saint. I'll be leaving now."

Qingyi wasted no more time and set off for the East Sea.

Time passed, and thousands of years went by.

Yuanshi once again set foot on Shouyang Mountain.

Looking at the human race on Shouyang Mountain from afar, Yuanshi's eyes showed shock.

"How could that be?"

"How could humanity have changed so much in just a thousand years?"

Yuan Shi discovered that the human tribes he had seen before had now turned into cities.

The city was built entirely of stone, and although it did not look beautiful, it was certainly magnificent.

He could clearly sense that the human race's fortune had increased significantly.

It's only been a few thousand years.

Excitement flashed in Yuanshi's eyes.

"As expected of the opportunity for my three corpses to merge into one, this race is worthy of me."

Yuan Shi felt a pang of jealousy.

Why shouldn't he have created such a race?

But before he could make a further move, Yuanshi felt a blur before his eyes.

After taking in his surroundings, he found himself back in that dilapidated cave.

At the Nuwa Temple on Shouyang Mountain, Nuwa blinked as she sensed yet another brief fluctuation in the Heavenly Dao.

"boring."

His repeated expulsion of Yuanshi was certainly not solely for the purpose of mocking the Heavenly Dao.

The main reason is for Kunpeng, who is still among the human race.

Since we're going to fish in troubled waters, let's fish to our hearts' content this time.

Unfortunately, Heaven and Hongjun still believed that Nuwa was asking for benefits.

I made up my mind not to give it to them.

Hongjun closed his eyes and stopped looking.

Seeing too much of this is upsetting.

Of course, Hongjun occasionally paid attention to Qingyi, and he saw Qingyi on a fairy island in the East Sea.

"When you get back and find that Tongtian still hasn't become a saint, you'll probably be anxious, won't you?"

And so, Yuanshi traveled on his journey time and time again, only to be sent back by Nuwa each time.

"Nuwa, do you really think I care about Shouyang Mountain?"

Once again expelled, Yuanshi cursed loudly.

A loud slap echoed from the void, and Yuanshi flew backward, clutching his face.

He immediately became obedient.

He lowered his head again, his eyes bloodshot, and panted heavily as he hurried toward Shouyang Mountain.

"My opportunity lies here, this place is destined for me, and you, Nuwa, cannot stop me!"

Yuan Shi was like an unkillable cockroach, trying again and again.

Finally, that day arrived.

A scholar in black robes emerged from the human race, dispelled his transformations, and once again became the seemingly fierce Kunpeng.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Kunpeng."

Tongtian stepped forward to greet him.
