Volume 1: The Great Tribulation of Longhan Chapter 2: Leaving the Customs and Gifts
The man and the bird stayed outside the cave where Nuwa was in seclusion.
I don't know how much time has passed. Maybe ten thousand years, maybe twenty thousand years.
Fuxi, who was resting his mind, suddenly opened his eyes, flipped his left hand, took out the formation plate, and made a seal with his right hand.
The eight trigrams runes of Qian, Kun, Li, Kan, Zhen, Dui, Xun and Gen flew out from the formation plate and were arranged in eight directions to reinforce the Fengqi Mountain innate formation.
Afterwards, a Taoist elephant with a human head and a snake body, about a million feet tall, appeared above the main peak. In its left hand, it held a lotus lantern, which shone brightly; in its right hand, it held a red-glowing heavenly sword, which shone brightly.
A great river flows from the void, with birds and beasts dancing in it, and flowers, trees, fish and insects standing side by side. This is the manifestation of the great way of creation!
Then I saw a Taoist image with a human head and a snake body in the air undergo seventy changes in sequence, and then it settled into the shape of Pangu's Taoist body, in human form.
Immediately, the great river of creation returned to the abyss, and the images of gods and humans disappeared.
The cave door that had been closed for a long time was finally opened.
Nuwa walks gracefully, wearing a red dress that fits her body well and trails on the ground; she has a slender neck, bright eyes and white teeth; her eyebrows are like emerald feathers, her skin is like jade, her lips are like red lotus, and she exudes an immortal air.
The purity of a jade pendant cannot be matched, and the fragrance of an orchid cannot be rivaled.
Upon seeing Nuwa, Mingyu immediately abandoned Wutong as if it were a shabby room and discarded Fuxi as if it were a worn-out shoe.
It flapped its wings first, landed on Nuwa's fragrant shoulders, and chirped to congratulate the goddess.
Congratulations on breaking through the realm and becoming one of the great powers in the prehistoric world. She praised Nuwa to the point that there was nothing like her in the sky, only Fengqi.
Although, it is true!
"My queen, this is the gift I prepared for you." After saying that, Mingyu took out a jade slip and offered it in front of Nuwa.
A projection of Fengqi Mountain appeared on the jade slip, but it was very different from the current Fengqi.
In the projection, Fengqi has pavilions and towers arranged in an orderly manner, corridors, bridges and waterside pavilions complement each other, the palaces are majestic and the forest gardens are interesting.
Compared to the monotonous Fengqi Mountain today, the architectural style of the later Jiangnan gardens is not only elegant, but also very much in line with Nuwa's aesthetics. Even Fuxi was surprised.
Nuwa's beautiful eyes smiled as she accepted the jade slip and said with interest, "I am very satisfied with this gift. Tell me, what do you want this time?"
When you give a gift to someone, you must ask for something. She knew the nature of this little blue phoenix very well.
"Precious Lotus Lantern? What Precious Lotus Lantern? Your Majesty, you are too polite!"
Mingyu shouted shamelessly, staring at Nuwa without blinking.
Upon hearing this, Fuxi, who was standing under the phoenix tree, put his hand on his forehead. He didn't know this guy.
Nuwa rolled her beautiful eyes, raised her hand and flicked the shameless bird off her shoulders.
He said, "Don't be greedy. I haven't comprehended the innate spiritual light of the Precious Lotus Lantern and the great Dao contained within it, so I can't give it to you."
The Great Dao is endless. Even if she has entered Daluo, it can only be said that she is the starting point of the Dao, the end of the Dao.
The other shore is still a little far away for Nuwa now.
As a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Precious Lotus Lantern's offensive and defensive functions are not important. The main thing is that the great Dao contained in it is of great benefit to her now.
The little guy is really greedy.
Mingyu didn't care about being flung away and just smiled foolishly to herself.
Just now, when Nuwa was playing the piano with her fingers, she also conveyed to him a sense of the great way of creation, as a reward to him.
The Great Dao perception of the Golden Immortal was a priceless treasure to him. It was helpful in verifying himself and achieving enlightenment.
Besides, the Queen Mother only said that she has not yet fully comprehended it, so she cannot give it to you; she did not say that she will not give it to you after she has fully comprehended it.
Keep up the good work and you will surely succeed.
When Mingyu was trying to cheer himself up, a big hand attacked and slapped him back into the paulownia tree.
Fuxi appeared in front of Nuwa with a graceful figure. He took out a jade hairpin and handed it to Nuwa.
He said, "Apart from the formation plate and the zither, I have nothing else. This jade hairpin is a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure that I found by chance when I was traveling in the prehistoric world."
There was no other way. This was the era of the three innate tribes, and there were countless great powers at the Daluo level in the three tribes. The innate spiritual treasures that had no owner in the prehistoric world were either impossible to find or had been looted by the powerful people of the three tribes. It was already a great fortune for Fuxi to encounter a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure.
Of course, one picture, one tree and one bird are counted separately.
Then, Fuxi sacrificed the Eight Trigrams Formation Plate. Thousands of heavenly materials and earthly treasures gushed out and piled up like a mountain, including many innate spiritual materials. Mingyu on the Wutong tree drooled at the sight.
"I like those buildings very much. I found them by chance while traveling in the wilderness. I will give them all to you to build."
Fuxi pointed at the treasures he had "picked up" and signaled Nuwa to accept them.
"Since you like it, I will start right away. Please wait and see."
Nuwa smiled sweetly, Fengqi Mountain changed with the sound, and treasures from heaven and earth flew away in response to the sound.
Afterwards, Nuwa formed seals with her hands, and the aura of the Dao of Creation fluctuated, forming a three-legged, two-eared Dao image of a large cauldron of creation in the air, which had the power to shake the universe.
She took out the Precious Lotus Lantern, blew it gently with her embroidered mouth, and the innate divine fire in the lamp went straight to the big cauldron, and the treasures from heaven and earth entered the cauldron one after another.
Soon, the pavilions, towers, gardens and bridges in the jade slip appeared one after another, scattered in an orderly manner among the Fengqi Mountains.
Each and every building is shining with precious light, and the patterns of the great road of creation are intertwined.
At this time, Fuxi also joined the construction cause.
He cast out array patterns and engraved array formations on these buildings, making these buildings not only aesthetically pleasing but also interesting for life, with even greater offensive and defensive capabilities.
After all, tranquility and beauty have never been the main theme of the prehistoric world. Endless fighting is the norm in the prehistoric world.
Two Daluo Jinxians personally performed the Dao and cast spells. This kind of opportunity is rare. Mingyu was overwhelmed by the series of operations and wished she had a few more pairs of eyes.
When a certain blue phoenix who was observing the Taoism and the Dharma had bloodshot eyes and a splitting headache, the construction project was finally completed.
At this time, a mysterious and yellow energy descended from the sky, and the way of heaven actually rewarded merit.
Three parts of the merit fell on the building complex, three parts to Nuwa, two parts to Fuxi, and the remaining two parts were equally divided between the jade slip and the bright jade.
The jade slip thus became a spiritual treasure of acquired merit, although it was only of low grade.
The moment the merits fell, they understood. This type of building complex was the first to appear in the prehistoric world since the birth of the Heavenly Dao, and it also contained two great ways, the Creation and the Formation. Therefore, the merits fell from the sky.
After Fuxi and Nuwa accepted this unexpected surprise with their magic treasures, they stared at the little blue phoenix on the phoenix tree together as if they had realized something.
Mingyu was staring at him until her scalp was tingling.
"This was completely unexpected. It was an accident. I didn't expect the Heavenly Dao to be so generous."
He closed his eyes, pretended to be stupid, and refused to admit that he did it on purpose. He also said that it was all the credit of the goddess and the gods, and that was the truth!
Anyway, he is a bird, with no emotion on his face, so he is not afraid that the two will see what he is thinking through his expression.
Seeing this, Fuxi and Nuwa were too lazy to pursue the matter.
They moved to the new main peak hall one after another, and after sitting down, they began to practice the unique skill passed down by the great gods of the ancient times - discussing the Tao!
In the hall, clouds of celebration rose and three flowers appeared. As the two began to preach, flowers fell from the sky, golden lotuses emerged from the ground, and various Taoist images evolved.
Mingyu, who followed closely, was mesmerized by the sound. The mountain spirits and wild monsters of Fengqi gathered under the main peak, jumping and skipping. This was their happiest moment.
