Taixu Heaven.
As Fu Xi, he soon met with Nuwa, and after some hesitation, he proposed borrowing a Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Nuwa couldn’t help but smile and said, "Elder Brother, why do you act like a coy maiden? Since our transformations, we have supported each other through endless eons. It’s just a Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, would I not lend it to you?"
As she spoke, she took out two Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures: "Elder Brother, the Fu Xi’s Zither is your natal object, you should keep it with you!"
"These Evil Summoning Banners, along with the Seven Heavenly Bright Divine Sabers, should satisfy Kunpeng’s needs!"
"I’m also waiting for Elder Brother to become the Human Dao Saint, then it will be your turn to take care of your sister here and there!"
Despite Nuwa, as the Heavenly Dao Saint and the close disciple of Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun, not having any Innate Treasures, she did have quite a few Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.
The "Mountain and River Map" that could trap saints, the "Red Embroidery Ball" signifying the three marriages of heaven, earth, and humanity, the "Treasure Lotus Lamp" formed from the first light in the world, the "Evil Summoning Banner" that could manipulate millions from the Demon Clan, along with the "Seven Stars Moon Retention Whip", the "Heaven and Earth Furnace", the "Three Rings of Heaven, Earth, and Humanity", and the "Seven Heavenly Bright Divine Sabers" are among these Innate Spiritual Treasures.
As the richest woman in Primordial times, the Saint Mother of the Human Race, and the Wa Emperor of the Demon Clan, her words were not to be taken lightly.
"This..."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xi furrowed his brows involuntarily: "The Seven Heavenly Bright Divine Sabers are fine, they’re harmless enough. But isn’t the Evil Summoning Banner the commanding artifact of the Demon Clan? Doesn’t my sister care about the Demon Clan’s fate?"
"The Seven Heavenly Bright Divine Sabers," nourished by the Power of Stars, could cut through anything and draw upon the Power of Stars. Individually they are mere High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, but all seven sabers conjured together make a Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
However, compared to the "Evil Summoning Banner", they look pale. It’s worth noting that the True Spirits of great Divine Power wielders from the Demon Clan, like Bai Ze and Shangyang, are attached to it. Once the "Evil Summoning Banner" is unveiled, it can mobilize several of these wielders.
Although it is only a Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure in rank, its value far exceeds its grade, almost rivaling that of an Innate Treasure.
Nuwa’s expression remained indifferent, a faint glint flashed in her eyes: "I have inherited the Creation Dao Fruit from my teacher. The fate of the Demon Clan is tasteless to me, regretful to abandon. It’s better as a favor to Kunpeng!"
"Back then, you and I joined the Demon Clan at the invitation of Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi, yet we did not see the greater trends of heaven and earth as clearly as Kunpeng!"
"If Kunpeng becomes the Human Dao Saint, it means the paths of Emperor Jun and Taiyi were wrong! Coercion is, after all, less effective than the way of enlightenment!"
"In these years, I haven’t done much for the Demon Clan. Instead, it’s Kunpeng, who established the Demon Text, integrating the inheritance of the Demon Clan into the bloodlines of countless creatures, which is key for the Demon Clan’s enduring legacy!"
"He is more suited to rule the Demon Clan than I am!"
"Since you aspire to become the Human Dao Saint, you will inevitably interact with Kunpeng. If so, why not trade this treasure for Kunpeng’s goodwill?"
"Furthermore, to become a Human Dao Saint, not only do you need the fate of the Human Race, the fate of the Demon Clan is indispensable as well. Before handing the Evil Summoning Banner to Kunpeng, you could return the True Spirits of Bai Ze and the others, entrusted onto the Evil Summoning Banner, back to them. They will naturally be grateful for your kindness and assist you in gathering fate!"
Nuwa handed the "Evil Summoning Banner" to Fu Xi, not for him to give it directly to Kunpeng, but for him to first exchange favors with those powerful beings of the Demon Clan.
Although the Demon Clan is in decline and no longer thriving, they still have considerable influence. Bai Ze, Shangyang, and several others are substantial allies.
Of course, Fu Xi needed to gauge the extent of this. It would be no issue to release the True Spirits of a few great Divine Power wielders, but to release all and give an empty "Evil Summoning Banner" to Kunpeng would not convey the desired goodwill!
"I understand!"
Fu Xi nodded immediately.
Now that Nuwa had put it this way, it would seem too finicky of him to refuse.
...
After returning to the Primordial world, Fu Xi did not go directly to Beiming but instead to East View Mountain, where he returned the True Spirits of Bai Ze and Shangyang back to them.
Bai Ze looked infinitely complex: "Does even the Wa Emperor think the Demon Clan is beyond saving?"
He was among the ten great Demon Saints, the earliest follower of Emperor Jun, and participated in the building of the Demon Clan, witnessing its rise and fall.
But with the demise of Emperor Jun and Taiyi, Fu Xi’s reincarnation into the Human Race, and Nuwa’s withdrawal from worldly affairs, the Demon Clan no longer had a leader that could command millions.
The little Golden Crow was once his hope.
Regrettably, the little Golden Crow was too extreme, did what should not have been done, provoked those who should not have been provoked, and ultimately met with the fate of being erased from existence.
Although he did not witness the fall of the little Golden Crow, he saw firsthand the Evil Corpse consumed into nothingness under the endless Curse Power.
If even the Evil Corpse ended up like this, the original body surely perished in the Chaotic Universe! After all these years with no news, they must be lost forever!
In the past, the "Evil Summoning Banner" was in Nuwa’s hands; occasionally, they would rely on Nuwa’s clout, and with several great Divine Power wielders from the Demon Clan in place, most dared not provoke the Demon Clan.
Without Nuwa’s protection, the plight of the Demon Clan may very well become more tragic.
"No!"
Fu Xi shook his head: "She just thinks Kunpeng’s way is more suitable for the Demon Clan! If only we hadn’t sought to unify Primordial through absolute power back then and instead heeded Kunpeng’s advice to subtly influence other races through enlightenment, could it have led to a different outcome?"
The Three Pure Ones became saints through enlightenment, Jieyin, and Zhunti also took on the task of enlightening beings in the Western regions. Perhaps they had all started on the wrong path!
