Chapter 137: Forward and Backward, Nuwa's Sainthood Crisis
"Yang Jian, you said that we are returning to the primitive world. In terms of the long river of time, are we moving forward or backward?"
Fairy Caixia asked.
Without waiting for Yang Jian to speak, she answered first: "It is backwards.
And in the process of Queen Mother of the West refining the elixir of immortality, the direction of time she manipulated was also backwards.
But this fantasy says don't move forward.
Could it be~"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Jian suddenly felt that the direction of the flow of time and space around him suddenly changed.
He is swimming upstream, heading to the end of time.
At the moment of direction change, the illusion of Queen Mother of the West suddenly appeared.
"Daoyou, don't move forward."
Yang Jian suddenly felt creepy, as if a great terror was about to befall him.
“Are you scared?”
Fairy Caixia is in Yang Jian's body at this time, and her senses are connected with Yang Jian. She can also feel what Yang Jian feels.
The moment she noticed Yang Jian's mood change, she spoke in a teasing tone.
"Fairy, why don't we go back and report this to Lady Nuwa first, and let her decide whether to continue the investigation?"
Yang Jian said.
"Go back? There's absolutely no way I'm going back unless there's a result this time."
Fairy Caixia said suddenly, she thought to herself that her meaning was the same as Nuwa's, so why bother going back to ask for instructions.
But she naturally would not tell Yang Jian this.
If Yang Jian knew her true identity, there might be a lot of inconvenience in the future.
If her daily behavior were to be spread out, the face of Saint Nuwa would be completely disgraced.
In the ancient times, any living being below the level of a saint who did not have an innate treasure to cover his fate would be noticed by her when he thought of things related to her, and would be restricted accordingly.
Only Yang Jian is not included in her destiny and will not be completely under her control.
So she could reveal her identity to anyone except Yang Jian.
The present world is in chaos.
West Kunlun.
Bai Yujing.
In the Temple of Queen Mother of the West.
A huge bronze mirror stands in the center of the hall.
The jade statue has empty eyes and holds one end of a colorful ribbon in its hand.
Colorful ribbons extend into the bronze mirror.
And on the mirror, the figure of Yang Jian appeared.
Suddenly, a stream of Yin energy slowly emerged and sank into the jade statue. The jade statue's originally stiff eyes suddenly moved, and it looked towards the Kunlun Mirror with a strange smile on its face.
The next moment, her jade hand that was holding the colorful ribbon suddenly loosened.
In the Kunlun Mirror, Yang Jian's expression suddenly became flustered and he didn't know what to do.
Without the blessing of Nuwa's divine power on the colorful ribbons, the time flowing around it suddenly became chaotic and disordered.
Countless holes appeared around his body and then submerged Yang Jian's figure.
The Kunlun Mirror lost its target, the image returned to nothingness, and a green lotus reappeared on the mirror surface.
The jade statue nodded with satisfaction, and the strange smile on the corner of its mouth gradually faded.
She was about to pick up the Kunlun Mirror.
The next moment, a red light suddenly broke through the hall and stopped the movement of the jade statue.
"Xuan Ming! You are so brave!"
A loud shout suddenly rang out.
The jade statue raised its head in horror and gazed towards the sky.
The huge snake body was coiled above Baiyujing, and above the snake body were Nuwa's angry eyes.
The deadly wind and snow outside Baiyujing blew on Nuwa's body like a breeze, unable to shake her at all.
Instead, Nuwa's fierce power appeared, and the snow and wind suddenly dissipated, the dark clouds faded, and the sun rose in the sky.
Hundreds of thousands of years later, the Immortal Kingdom was illuminated by sunlight again.
The residents showed no excitement at all at this moment.
The figure of Nuwa in the sky made them despair.
The saints were angry, and this immortal kingdom was just an immortal ant. They didn't understand who Nuwa was angry about, and countless people could only kneel down and pray for Nuwa to show mercy and not punish them.
Nuwa stretched out her hand and the Kunlun Mirror slowly rose from the ruins of the temple. She stretched out her hand and searched time and space with great magic power.
Losing her incarnation was just a small matter, but losing Yang Jian was a big deal.
A dragon roar suddenly sounded, and everyone soon discovered that there was a pair of sun and moon in the sky.
At the same time, the sun and the moon were approaching rapidly.
"Candle Dragon!"
Nuwa's expression turned stern: "Could it be that you are also involved in this?"
The person who came was Zhulong.
It is red all over and has no feet, like a long snake with a snake body and a human face, and one eye is yin and the other is yang. When it exhales, the eternal ice and snow in West Kunlun melts into water, and when it inhales, the water suddenly freezes into ice.
Its body was huge, stretching for thousands of miles. The moment it appeared, the entire sky was filled with it.
In the crimson sky, what was rolling was not white clouds, but the body of Zhulong.
When the chaos was just beginning and the sun and moon had not yet come into being.
He used his eyes to establish day and night, and his breathing to divide the four seasons. The original order of heaven and earth was established by Zhulong.
He is one of the most senior gods in the ancient times.
Although he does not occupy the saintly position, the authority he holds is extraordinary, and his supernatural powers are almost as good as those of a saint.
Otherwise, how could it be responsible for guarding time and space.
After Zhulong appeared, he did not speak. Instead, he looked at the Kunlun Mirror in the temple with a meaningful look.
"My queen, why don't you let me keep this Kunlun mirror? There are too many hidden dangers in it, and I'm worried that you can't keep it under control."
Hearing this, Nuwa laughed out of anger: "You want the Kunlun Mirror? Then let me see what you can do!"
Someone actually sneaked into Baiyujing and took the opportunity to kill one of her incarnations.
If this grudge is not taken, these guys may not know who has the final say in the world!
"It seems that the Queen is unwilling to hand over the Kunlun Mirror!"
Zhulong's expression suddenly became fierce.
"So what? You can all come together and let me see your skills. I wonder if you have made any progress in these million years!"
Nuwa looked calm and fearless.
What she was talking about was obviously not just Zhulong.
She looked at the evil spirit in the jade statue and said, "Xuan Ming, how long do you plan to hide? You can't sneak into Baiyujing without the help of Hou Tu. Where is Hou Tu? Let her come too, otherwise you and Zhu Long will be hanged in front of the Wa Palace tomorrow."
The voice just fell.
A figure suddenly appeared between heaven and earth. His figure was tall and suddenly surrounded by an endless and heavy Taoist rhyme.
It was the Mother Goddess of the Earth, Hou Tu.
The moment Hou Tu appeared.
Xuan Ming, who was hidden in the jade statue, chuckled: "Then let us witness the power of Lady Nuwa."
As she chuckled, the yin energy between heaven and earth suddenly became thicker.
Suddenly, cold winds blew, as if the underworld had descended upon the world.
The great god Xuanming is the founder of the underworld, and the underworld is the final destination of all living beings on earth.
"During the Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation, you were hit by a sword from Master Tong Tian. Now it seems that your injuries have healed. How dare you come out and wander around?"
Nuwa was silent. She turned to look at Hou Tu and said, "In order to avenge the Queen Mother of the West, I stole your Mountain and River Map and refined it into the Mountain and River State Map. It seems that you have been holding a grudge against me. If I had known this, I should have cut off the roots. How could I have allowed Hou Tu to live in the world with my equal!"
"Normally, we would never dare to have any thoughts about Saint Nuwa. If we hadn't heard that some time ago, Lady Nuwa actually handed over the Mountain and River State Map to the Heavenly Court, losing an innate treasure, we would naturally want to try out how much power Lady Nuwa's Red Hydrangea still has left. With the death energy of Baiyujing fading away, even if the Red Hydrangea has a lot of vitality, it will soon be exhausted. Otherwise, why would the Lady Nuwa rush to find the Queen Mother of the West? The Lady Nuwa didn't look for her for the past 300,000 years, but now she suddenly wants to look for her. It's inevitable that we will have second thoughts."
Xuan Ming said leisurely.
Then, she looked at Hou Tu and Zhu Long, as if she had already won: "Since the beginning of the primordial wilderness, the souls of three thousand demon gods have returned to the torrent of the Great Dao, and forty-nine primordial purple qi have been generated between heaven and earth and transformed into the living beings of heaven and earth. After the dragon and phoenix catastrophe, six primordial purple qi were separated from heaven and earth and were given by Daozu to the six disciples sitting in front.
During the Lich Catastrophe, Taiyi wanted to plunder the heaven and earth to become a saint, but was stopped by the Three Pure Ones, and the primordial purple energy returned to the heaven and earth.
Now the disaster is approaching again. If we don’t fight now, we will never have the chance to fight again.
When Lady Nuwa dies, a ray of primordial purple energy will be released, and the one who will ascend to the saintly throne will naturally be Sister Houtu. When the killing calamity comes and the number of living beings in the world decreases, the heaven and earth will release primordial purple energy again. By then, with the help of Saint Houtu, the saintly throne will naturally belong to me and my brother Zhu Jiuyin.
If you want to blame someone, blame Nuwa for being a loner. The two saints from the West are inseparable, and the three saints of Taoism are as close as brothers. It is really hard to blame them."
When Nuwa heard this, her heart moved.
What interested her was not the various reasons and purposes mentioned by Xuanming, but the fact that Xuanming actually knew the news of Queen Mother of the West's disappearance and even knew the time when Queen Mother of the West disappeared.
This matter was very strange because the news of Queen Mother of the West's disappearance had been concealed by her.
"How did you know that Queen Mother of the West was missing?"
Nuwa asked.
