Chapter 53 Enlightening Nuwa
Inside the Kunpeng Palace, the Taoist aura flowed, and the aroma of tea wafted through the air.
Kunpeng accepted Nuwa's bow without hesitation, but instead gestured for Xuan Gui Daoren to pour Nuwa a cup of enlightenment tea.
Once Nuwa's emotions had calmed down, he slowly spoke, his voice gentle and rhythmic, as if each word was striking a crucial point in the Dao: "Since you, junior sister, are determined to create a race and prove your Dao in this way, then it means your path is correct."
"However, even within the Way of Creation, there are distinctions of superiority and inferiority."
"Junior Sister, what form should the race you wish to create take in the world? Will it be like a bird soaring through the heavens? Or a beast roaming the earth? Or perhaps a scaled creature swimming in the deep sea?"
Upon hearing this, Nuwa frowned slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes: "I observe that among the myriad races of the primordial world, though their forms differ, they all have flaws."
"The Wu tribe has a strong physical body, but no primordial spirit. They do not understand the will of Heaven and only know how to be brave and fierce. Although the Yao tribe has developed intelligence, their bloodline is mixed, their beastly nature is difficult to tame, and their ferocity is deep."
"What I want to create is a perfect race that can follow the way of heaven, possesses both spirituality and wisdom, and has both the physique of the witch race and the primordial spirit of the demon race."
"But—what exactly is this form?"
Nuwa pondered deeply, countless images flashing through her mind, yet she could never grasp the most crucial point.
Upon seeing this, Kunpeng smiled slightly.
Instead of pointing it out directly, he reached out and dipped his finger into the crystal-clear drop of the Three Lights Divine Water in the cup.
"Junior sister, watch."
He gently drew a pattern on the rosewood table in front of him.
It was an extremely simple pattern, not some complicated rune, but a figure standing tall with its feet on the ground, its hands supporting the sky.
Although the figure was simple, it exuded a spirit of uprightness and indomitable will.
"This is—" Nuwa's gaze sharpened, as if she had realized something.
"The Great God Pangu!"
The Kunpeng's voice suddenly rose, like a morning bell and evening drum, deafeningly clear: "In the past, Pangu separated heaven and earth, and his body transformed into all things."
"His eyes became the sun and moon, his spine became Mount Buzhou, and his blood became rivers —"
"The form of the Great God Pangu is the most perfect vessel for the Great Dao in this world! It is the ultimate direction for the evolution of all living beings!"
"Look at these three thousand worldly travelers, which one of them, after cultivating to the end, didn't turn into this kind of thing?"
"This form must be the innate Dao body!"
"Innate Dao Body —"
Nuwa stared intently at the still-wet water stain pattern on the table, muttering to herself.
boom-!!!
It was as if a thunderbolt had cleaved through the chaos, and the fog that had been shrouding her heart vanished without a trace in that instant.
Her eyes shone with an unprecedented brilliance, and the laws of creation around her surged wildly like boiling river water, causing the entire Kunpeng Palace to resonate with them.
"That's it! That's exactly how it looks!"
"What I want to create is this innate Dao body!"
"Standing on the ground, head reaching the heavens, hands creating things, prostrating oneself to correspond to the five elements, seven orifices perceptible to understand the seven emotions."
'
With the direction clear, the path forward is now understood.
Nuwa trembled with excitement, wishing she could act immediately.
But then, the joy on her face gradually froze, replaced by a look of difficulty.
"Senior brother, you are truly talented! Your words have awakened me from my dream!"
Nuwa looked at Kunpeng with a complex expression, a mixture of gratitude and helplessness: "But—creating such a perfect Dao body is not something that ordinary mortals can do."
"It needs 'earth capable of bearing the spirit of all things' as its bones and flesh, 'water containing boundless vitality' as its blood, and, more importantly, a supreme treasure capable of drawing upon the power of creation as its medium."
"Though I possess the Red Embroidered Ball and the Map of Mountains and Rivers, neither is for the Creator's use. This divine material of creation, I—"
No."
Make bricks without straw.
Even if you know how to make it, it's all in vain without the materials.
Upon hearing this, Kunpeng smiled faintly, as if to say, "I knew it would turn out this way."
"Junior sister, there's no need to worry."
"What you seek, I happen to have right here."
Before he finished speaking, Kunpeng waved his sleeve.
"Buzz—"
Three dazzling orbs of precious light floated in mid-air above the main hall.
On the left is a mass of divine soil, the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, radiating nine-colored light and teeming with life!
In the center is a jade bottle filled with the three-colored divine water of gold, silver and purple, exuding a rich life force!
On the right is a green gourd vine that, though withered, still exudes an innate Daoist charm!
Looking at these three treasures, which would make any quasi-saint envious, Nuwa's pupils suddenly contracted, and a huge wave surged in her heart.
She suddenly looked up at Kunpeng, her voice trembling with disbelief: "These—back in Buzhou Mountain, my senior brother insisted on taking these seemingly useless things, not even sparing the withered vines—"
"Could it be that Senior Brother had already foreseen this day?!"
This is terrifying!
If Kunpeng were merely powerful, that would be one thing.
But this ability to plan a hundred steps ahead, even starting tens of thousands of years ago, is truly terrifying when you think about it!
"Heh, just going with the flow."
Kunpeng remained calm and did not answer directly. His unfathomable demeanor only added to his mystique in Nuwa's eyes.
"I can lend these three treasures to my junior sister to help her attain enlightenment."
Kunpeng looked at Nuwa, his tone becoming solemn, and finally revealed his fangs: "However, I have three conditions."
Nuwa took a deep breath to calm herself and said solemnly, "Senior brother, please speak. If it is reasonable, Nuwa will not refuse."
This is about her chance to become a saint, and she will seize it no matter the cost.
Kunpeng held up one finger: "Firstly, after creating humans, Heaven bestows merit. I want thirty percent!"
"Thirty percent?" Nuwa hesitated for a moment. Although it was painful, she nodded and said, "Agreed, considering that we cannot create humans without these materials."
Kunpeng extended his second finger: "Secondly, status and legitimacy."
"After the birth of humanity, I shall be revered as the Holy Teacher of humanity!"
"I will enjoy two-tenths of humanity's fortune and receive their eternal offerings. Even if humanity prospers in the future, you must acknowledge my status as a Holy Teacher, and this status must not be changed!"
Nuwa frowned slightly.
Luck is a mysterious and unpredictable thing.
But at this time, the human race had not yet been born, and she did not know how promising the human race would be in the future. She just thought that Kunpeng wanted to gain more benefits.
"As long as you sincerely protect humanity, what harm is there in giving you the title of Holy Master? It's up to you!"
Kunpeng smiled slightly, extended his third finger, and pointed to the innate gourd vine: "Thirdly, return it to its rightful owner."
"If you use this vine to create a human being, and accumulate immeasurable merit, this vine will surely transform into a precious treasure of acquired merit."
"After creating humans, this treasure must be returned to me!"
This vine would later be called the "Human Creation Whip".
It is not only a powerful offensive treasure, but also an unparalleled weapon to restrain the human race!
No matter how powerful the human race becomes in the future, even the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, they would tremble in fear at the sight of this whip and dare not resist in the slightest.
This is Kunpeng's greatest trump card in controlling the human race and keeping Nuwa and the other saints in check!
Nuwa glanced at the withered vine, feeling a little sorry for it, but she didn't pay it too much attention.
After all, these vines originally belonged to Kunpeng, so it's only natural to borrow them and return them.
"Alright! I agree to all three conditions!"
Nuwa made a decisive decision and said it firmly.
"happy!"
Kunpeng clapped his hands and laughed, then with a wave of his sleeve, pushed the three treasures in front of Nuwa.
"In that case, please move to the shores of the East Sea, junior sister, and create a great destiny for you and me, and for this primordial world!"
