From then on, the Heavenly Dao specifically referred to the Lesser Heavenly Dao, while the Greater Heavenly Dao was distinguished by the word "Greater."
All the mighty ancestors in heaven and earth looked towards Buzhou, and then they saw the magnificent Nuwa apparition with a human body and a snake's tail.
Not only the mighty ones, but even ordinary beings, hundreds of billions of miles away, could still see the Nuwa apparition.
A shocking thought suddenly flashed through the minds of the mighty ancestors: Nuwa, was she about to become a saint? But the mighty ones found it incredible, for Hongjun's first disciple, the foremost of the Sanqing, Laozi, had not yet made a move.
How could Nuwa attain the Dao before the Great Master of the Daoist sect?
In the Heavenly Court, Di Jun and Tai Yi were overjoyed. The Demon Master was envious but inwardly delighted. Once Nuwa truly became a saint, the demon race would have a saint's protection and would be free from worries!
In Kunlun, the Sanqing were all astonished. They were a step behind their junior sister.
In the West, Zhun Ti laughed heartily. He did not see Nuwa becoming a saint before him, but rather the advent of the era of the Six Saints.
On the Jianmu tree, Qing Ling gazed at Buzhou. The beginning of all calculations and schemes was at hand. All his previous plans were merely laying the groundwork. From Nuwa's becoming a saint, the game would begin, and the cosmic chessboard would soon unfold!
In the chaos, the eyes of the living dead were filled with disbelief. They had struggled for so long, lived for so long, yet they could not compare to a junior.
Within the will of the Greater Heavenly Dao, Hongjun sensed it but did not react. However, within the Lesser Heavenly Dao, an anomaly was about to emerge.
Nuwa, the focus of countless gazes in the Primordial World, remained oblivious and unfeeling.
She took out two treasures, one being the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, and the other being the Three Light Divine Water, both items of creation. The Greater Wind Fiction Network.
Her human-faced, snake-tailed apparition glowed with an unusual light. Her face, facing Buzhou, was that of a complete human, while the human-faced, snake-tailed apparition emerged from behind her. One complete human, one human with a snake's tail, born back-to-back.
The beings were perplexed, the mighty were bewildered, the ancestors were doubtful, and the Heavenly Dao stagnated.
Nuwa's complete human form faced Buzhou. The Three Light Divine Water and the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil merged into her magnificent, colossal palm. Simultaneously, the human-faced, snake-tailed apparition behind her spoke to heaven and earth: "I am Nuwa. I perceive the origin of the three paths of heaven, earth, and man, and I understand the supreme principles of the Greater Heavenly Dao.
The Great God Pangu is the beginning of the human path..."
"Rumble—"
Endless clouds gathered in the firmament, and thunder roared through the universe. With Nuwa's declaration, the heavens and earth changed color, the Heavenly Dao raged, and tribulation clouds rolled in, with myriad purple lights locking onto Nuwa.
The faces of the Sanqing changed drastically. Nuwa had actually revealed the primordial secrets that Laozi had told her to all beings in heaven and earth. This was akin to exposing the Heavenly Dao's hidden secrets!
Nuwa spoke unhurriedly, continuing, "The Greater Heavenly Dao is the will of heaven and earth, divided into three.
At that time, the Heavenly Dao held sway, disregarding humanity and its common people. I cannot bear to see the common people ignorant, nor the myriad beings foolish. Moreover, I will not allow humanity to be enslaved and subservient to the Heavenly Dao.
I now take the primordial form of Pangu as my shape, with a human head, possessing two eyes, one nose, one mouth, two ears on the head, long hair on top, two breasts on the body, two palms on the sides, one navel on the abdomen, divided into yin and yang below for reproduction, and two legs for upright walking, to create a sentient being."
As Nuwa's human-faced, snake-tailed apparition announced to all beings, the complete human apparition behind her was already shaping the first sentient being in heaven and earth, born with a complete human form, according to the apparition's words.
The thunderous heavenly tribulation condensed into a cold Eye of Heavenly Punishment, devoid of emotion or feeling, carrying the nobility of heaven and earth, looking down on all beings as ants. It caused the souls of countless sentient beings to tremble, losing their senses and consciousness, as if assimilated into heaven and earth by this single gaze.
Nuwa's human-faced, snake-tailed form spoke again, her grand Daoist voice carrying the essence of creation, unsealing the souls of beings assimilated by the words of heavenly punishment, and protecting them.
"Two palms supporting heaven, two feet on earth, a head filled with wisdom, a body connected to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, flesh, blood, bones, and marrow containing the workings of the Zhou Tian, emulating the Great God Pangu who stood firm between heaven and earth without yielding.
With the Dao of my life's blood, I create this spirit, hoping it will live and die within the boundless heaven and earth, never submit to the might of the Heavenly Dao, and never lose the great momentum of humanity among all beings!
I name it Human, in accordance with the Dao of Humanity, calling it the Human Race! I call its tribe the Human Race, because of the Dao of Humanity, there is the Human Race, not because of the Human Race, there is the Dao of Humanity!"
As the words fell, the Eye of Heavenly Punishment could bear it no longer. Streaks of Heavenly Punishment lightning struck Nuwa's human-faced, snake-tailed apparition. Treasures could not block it, divine abilities could not resist it, nothing could impede it, directly striking the Dao body.
Nuwa's human-faced, snake-tailed apparition was shattered, scale by scale, by the heavenly tribulation divine lightning. Her body was filled with the punishment of lightning, and her primordial spirit was in agony, yet she continued her words against heaven.
At the same time, Nuwa's complete human apparition had already created over a thousand humans. She then summoned the gourd vine from Buzhou. The Three Light Divine Water and the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil were softened into mud, and with a flick of the vine, thousands of mud droplets fell to the ground, turning into humans upon contact!
However, both the mud figures personally sculpted by Nuwa and those flung out were as stiff and numb as puppets, lacking emotion and wisdom.
Seeing this, Nuwa's human-faced, snake-tailed form bowed down. Heavenly punishment rolled in, and tribulation lightning descended upon Nuwa's body, creating countless wounds, large and small, as if thousands of knives were piercing her body. The pain and suffering were beyond words.
From these wounds, drops of bright red blood flowed out, merging into the numb and unintelligent bodies of the humans below. This vital blood, imbued with Nuwa's Great Dao of Creation, was as precious as any treasure.
From this moment, humanity began to awaken its spiritual intelligence!
As the humans opened their eyes to see the world, the first scene they beheld was the majestic figure creating them, shielding them from the sky, with endless lightning striking their creator mother. The sky rained crimson, it was the blood of the Human Mother, the rain of creation for the birth of humanity!
Tens of thousands upon tens of thousands of humans wept and bowed. The first bow of humanity was not to heaven, nor to earth, but to the Mother of Humanity, Empress Nuwa!
"We pay respects to Empress Nuwa!"
"We pay respects to Empress Nuwa!"
"We pay respects to Empress Nuwa!"
Pure cries from the depths of their hearts, tears of emotion watering the earth!
Nuwa created humans, with flesh formed from the teeming masses, blood from the divine water, souls from Nuwa's blood, and bones from Nuwa's will!
Having created four hundred and ninety thousand humans, Nuwa finally stopped when her blood ran dry.
Around Nuwa, forty-nine thousand humans expressed their gratitude to Empress Nuwa for the grace of creation.
Nuwa completed the creation of humanity. Although the Heavenly Dao did not bestow merit, the Greater Heavenly Dao descended immeasurable merit, rewarding Nuwa for creating humans to fulfill the human path and supplement the human path among the three paths of heaven, earth, and man.
However, before the merit descended, Nuwa commanded, "If the three corpses do not emerge, when will you wait!"
A Xuan Guang of Creation suddenly burst forth from Nuwa. The "Self" corpse could no longer remain within Nuwa's Dao body and was severed from her main body by the will forged through countless heavenly punishments. The "Self" corpse emerged.
On Phoenix Perch Mountain, the "Evil" corpse with a snake's body emerged. The complete human "Good" corpse behind Nuwa also emerged. Finally, the last "Self" corpse with a human body and snake's tail emerged.
The three corpses merged, the Great Dao became primordial, the Great Dao of Creation was elevated to the Primordial Realm. Nuwa ascended to the firmament, the Great Dao platter formed by the three corpses suspended behind her head. Nuwa's body reached a state of perfection, immortal, indestructible, eternally existing, her true spirit disappearing from the River of Destiny, no longer within its bounds.
At this moment, the merit formed by the will of heaven and earth descended. The Primordial Violet Qi on Nuwa's body induced the birth of a Saint!
The heavenly tribulation receded. Thousands of miles of tribulation clouds transformed into myriad auspicious clouds, with countless neon lights and auspicious colors. Heavenly flowers rained down, splendid and varied, with fragrant aromas filling the air, radiating glory. Golden phoenixes cried out and prostrated themselves on the ground. Heaven and earth rejoiced together, the sun and moon shone in unison, and ten thousand miles of mountains and rivers offered their congratulations.
The Primordial Saint Empress Nuwa attained the Dao and became a saint! Not a Saint of the Heavenly Dao, but Nuwa.
