Chapter 129: The River Chart and the Luo Book - Fu Xi's Proof of the Dao
Nüwa followed Tongtian Jiao Zhu, and after passing through the bamboo forest, she couldn't help but feel shocked. She involuntarily shifted her gaze to Tongtian Jiao Zhu's face, full of doubt. In fact, it wasn't just Nüwa who was doubtful and shocked; even Tongtian Jiao Zhu, who had been there before, felt the same way.
If it weren't for Tongtian Sect Master's confidence that he hadn't gone the wrong way, this would be Penglai Fairy Island. Tongtian Sect Master thought he had arrived at the human tribe, and everything in front of him except for the bamboo forest, bamboo house, and the pond seemed unchanged, just like an ordinary farmer's home.
Next to the bamboo house is a paddy field, where you can see the seedlings that have just been planted, flexible and strong in the wind and rain, a green and lush expanse. On one side is a vegetable garden with some plants that have appeared in human history, while others have not. The roof of the bamboo building rises with a wisp of smoke, a vivid scene of a rural farmhouse.
Suddenly, the two of them smelled a fragrance that made even these two saints who didn't eat worldly food feel their appetites open up greatly. The two followed the fragrance and finally arrived inside the bamboo hut, where they saw Wujie holding a ladle in a basin, stirring something back and forth.
The fragrance was coming from there, and the two were observing Wujie, hoping to see something extraordinary in his movements, but they were disappointed. The bowl and spoon were ordinary objects, the fire was ordinary fire, and Wujie's movements didn't reveal anything special.
Just as the two were observing Wuji, Wuji spoke first: "Niangniang, Shifu, please wait for a moment, I'll be fine here soon." After speaking, Wuji continued his previous action.
Yuè originally discovered Wuji as soon as they entered Penglai Fairy Island. If it were the two saints in the past who borrowed Wuji's jade symbol to hide themselves, Wuji wouldn't have been able to discover them. However, with Wuji opening up the sky, his power greatly increased, and he immediately knew that two powerful beings whose auras didn't fall beneath his own had arrived.
Wuji then observed the actions of the two observers, seeing them head to the orchard and steal fine wine from the cellar. This couldn't help but make Wuji laugh. The various pre-heavenly spiritual roots in the orchard had already been transplanted by Wuji into the Wuji realm, while the fine wine stolen by Tongtian Sect Master was simply a product of Feng Qiu and others having nothing to do, brewing it themselves, completely unable to be compared with Wuji's fruit wine.
Wuji watched the two observers on the way to Penglai Xian Island, slowly walking towards the bamboo building. With some spare time, Wuji started cooking and preparing a meal to entertain Nüwa Niangniang and Tongtian Jiaozi.
The dishes were quickly prepared, and after Wuji had arranged the bowls and chopsticks, he asked the two to sit down. Tongtian Jiao finally spoke up: "Wuji, you can actually detect us. It seems your cultivation has improved. What were you just doing?"
Wuji replied, "Master Uncle, I'm just cooking ordinary food that people eat. Try some." Then Wuji was the first to pick up his chopsticks. Nüwa and Tongtian saw that Wuji had already started eating, and although they hadn't planned on eating, the aroma of the food was quite enticing, so they began to taste it in small bites.
Wuji's cooking is not just the methods that people eat today, Wuji also blends some seasonings from later generations, and the taste is absolutely delicious. After tasting it, Nüwa still cared about her image, being more restrained, eating small mouthfuls. Tongtian Jiao Zhu, on the other hand, had no such concerns, directly devouring large mouthfuls.
After a moment, the three of them finished the four dishes cooked by Wújí. Wújí led the two to sit under the willow tree beside the pond. The Goddess Niú immediately told Wújí her intention and hoped that he could lend her the River Chart and Luo Book or provide some clues.
Wuji heard the intention of Nüwa Niangniang and said, "Niangniang, I really can't take out the Xiantian Lingbao Hetu Luoshu. It has been used up by me and no longer exists in the good world."
Nüwa heard Wuji's answer and was disappointed. Originally, Nüwa already knew that the Hetu Luoshu had disappeared in the Honghuang, but for her brother's path to becoming a god, Nüwa still held onto a glimmer of hope. However, hearing Wuji say it himself, Nüwa couldn't help but feel lost. Even Tongtian, the leader of the Tongtian sect, felt regretful.
Wuji saw the changes in the expressions of the two and spoke again: "Although the original congenital spiritual treasure, the Hetu Luoshu, has disappeared, a new acquired spiritual treasure, the Hetu Luoshu, will soon be born." Wuji saw the expressions of the two and spoke again: "Although the Hetu Luoshu has disappeared, I have already grasped the great way within it. I can recreate the Hetu Luoshu. When the time comes, with the help of my master's uncle, we can turn the acquired into the congenital, and then the congenital spiritual treasure, the Hetu Luoshu, will be born."
Tongtian Jiaozhu and Nüwa Niangniang did not expect that after many twists and turns, they would suddenly find a new path. After 99 days of hard work, Wujie finally succeeded in refining the materials into the shape of the Hetu Luoshu diagram.
Wuji has already refined the Lingbao into shape, and then he began to gradually infuse his understanding of the Tao from the Hetu and Luoshu scriptures into these two spiritual treasures that were about to take shape. Afterwards, Wuji handed over the newly refined Hetu and Luoshu scriptures to Tongtian, letting him use the Qiankun Ding to return to the origin and achieve the Xiantian Lingbao.
Wuji saw that there was nothing to do for himself, so he went outside to the vegetable field to weed. After all, it had been more than 80 days since the last weeding, and the vegetable field was already full of weeds. The seedlings in the rice paddy had grown up and could be harvested at any time.
Forty-nine days later, the Tongtian Sect Master finally returned the Hetu Luoshu to its original source. After that, the Tongtian Sect Master left first with his own affairs, but Wuji noticed that when the Tongtian Sect Master left, he looked at Nüwa Niangniang with a deeper gaze in his eyes, which contained an inexplicable affection.
Wuji and Nüwa saw Tongtian Jiao Zhu returning the Hetu Luoshu to its origin, achieving the Xiantian Lingbao. Wuji, with a carefree attitude, went out for a stroll with Nüwa, but whether Wuji had other intentions was left unspoken.
Then naturally, it was the scene of Pangu's enlightenment by the river, and Yu Huang let the Yellow Cow deliver the River Map to Pangu, while Nüwa Niangniang and Yu Huang watched from the side, as well as the subsequent scene of stopping Yun Xiao.
Only to see a yellow-robed Taoist suddenly appear on Pao Ci's body, Wuji knew that this was the appearance of Pao Ci's previous life, the demon emperor Fuxi. The Taoist in the shape of Fuxi said: "Demon Emperor Fuxi has seen the true self." Pao Ci said: "Human Emperor Fuxi has seen Demon Emperor Fuxi, you and I are one body, no need to be polite, you should return to your true self now." After finishing speaking, Demon Emperor Fuxi transformed into a stream of light and entered Pao Ci's body.
At this moment, Pao Ci suddenly enlightened to his past life. He beheaded the good corpse and the demon emperor Fuxi Dao Ren. At this moment, Pao Ci's beheading of the good corpse made great progress. Yun Xiao suddenly felt that the power binding him had disappeared. Yun Xiao first went forward to observe Pao Ci's situation, then led Pao Ci into the void and said: "Yun Xiao pays respects to Nüwa Niangniang and Wújí Shīxiōng."
At this time, Pangu also saw the Void Goddess Nüwa and Wújí standing in the void. Pangu said to the void: "Pangu of the human tribe has seen the Holy Mother Nüwa of the human tribe, the Holy Master Wújí." Wújí hastily said: "Since Fuxi has absorbed the mortal dust and restored his past memories, his identity is noble, from now on we can address each other as fellow daoists."
Nüwa said, "Elder brother, no need to be so polite. You and I are originally siblings, from now on we can just call each other brother and sister." Pangu said, "Holy Mother Nüwa, the demon emperor Fuxi is no more, now there's only the human Fuxi. From now on, it's still proper to address you as Holy Mother Nüwa."
Nüwa saw that Poxi was determined, so she could only let Poxi be. Later, Wújí saw Nüwa and Fúxī chatting and ignored Yun Xiao, so he asked Yun Xiao a few questions. Yun Xiao originally had some fear of Wújí, but after being with Feng Qiu and the four girls for a long time, in just a few words, they talked about some information about Wújí. The original fearful heart gradually disappeared, and just now it had completely disappeared.
Wuji and Yun Xiao talked for a while, then left one after another with Nüwa Niangniang. However, Wuji did not leave with Nüwa Niangniang this time, nor did he return to Penglai Fairy Island, but instead traveled through the Primordial Chaos.
After Nüwa and Wújí arrived one after another, Yúnxiāo also bid farewell to Chuījiàn. After all, Chuījiàn had regained the memories of his past life as Fúxī, and in terms of experience and strength, he was no match for Yúnxiāo. At this time, Yúnxiāo had a clear understanding of himself and also wanted to alleviate the awkwardness between him and Chuījiàn. After all, the identity of the Demon Emperor Fúxī was that of Yúnxiāo's elder, but now Yúnxiāo was the teacher of the reincarnated Demon Emperor, which made it difficult for Chuījiàn to interact with Yúnxiāo.
After Pao Ci walked out of Yun Xiao, he returned to the human tribe with an unprecedented sense of ease. With his newfound power, everything in this world seemed different. As soon as Pao Ci returned to the human tribe's village, he ordered that his name be changed to Fu Xi, which caused a huge stir among the humans. Although the hatred towards the demon tribe had weakened slightly since the departure of the powerful Da Luo Jinxian, the hatred was still deeply ingrained in the blood of the human tribe, and many were opposed to Pao Ci's name change.
However, the contributions and prestige of Bao Xi to the human race were unmatched, and in the end, the human race reluctantly accepted Bao Xi's name change to Fu Xi. Afterwards, Fu Xi began teaching the Eight Trigrams to humans, allowing them to seek good fortune and avoid calamity.
After Fuxi taught the eight trigrams to humans, humans were often able to make some preparations before disasters, minimizing their losses. As the eight trigrams spread among humans, there were originally some dissatisfactions with Fuxi's name change, but as humans benefited from it, those dissatisfactions also disappeared.
After a thousand years, Fuxi finally succeeded in proving the Human Emperor. The Supreme Sage, the Original Heavenly Master, the Tongtian Jiao Master, the Niangniang, the Saint of Invitation, the Saint of Zhunti, and the Wuji Tianzun, seven of the strongest in the Honghuang world, came to witness the last Human Emperor's ascension ceremony.
