"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
"Even if you have the original immortal spirit body, these eyes are a burden to you now, so don't use them lightly."
If you look closely, you can see the most primordial immortal energy flowing deep within the eyes of the Queen Mother of the West.
The mother and daughter stood together, looking remarkably alike.
The girl closed her eyes to ease the pain: "When can I see my father?"
The Queen Mother of the West smiled and said, "After Yaochi and he are together."
"Why?"
"She needs to persuade your father's wife."
"Isn't my father's wife my mother?"
"No, I am your mother and he is your father, but we are not related."
"Oh." The girl nodded.
She was confused and didn't really understand. Let alone being husband and wife, she actually viewed Li Changzhou, her father, as a playful person and someone she felt a close bond with because of blood ties, rather than a daughter's longing for her father.
As for the Queen Mother of the West, as a supreme celestial being who has lived for countless millennia and is about to become a saint, she has long since become indifferent to worldly ethics.
The simple contractual relationship between husband and wife is not worth mentioning at all.
That was how it used to be, but after the girl in front of her was born, she found herself to be a little different.
She wasn't childless; the Seven Fairies were created by her own hands. But after the girl appeared, she suddenly understood what it meant to be one's own child.
She adored the girl no matter how she looked at her, and this adoration surpassed everything else, solely due to her obsession with becoming a saint.
"Yu'er, your divine body is just beginning to take shape. Come with me into seclusion to familiarize yourself with your power."
"Ah, why do I have to go into seclusion again! I've been in seclusion for thousands of years!"
"What are a few thousand years? Even if it's just tens of thousands of years of loneliness, you must learn to endure it. This is your first test."
Wilderness.
The human tribulation has passed; the earthly tribulation has begun.
The spirit serpent of the Mountain and River Map, with its massive, winding body, fixed its gaze on Li Changzhou, who sat beneath the Primordial Divine Tree.
With a rumble, the void trembled, and the spirit serpent continued to crawl, preparing to reveal its complete form.
Half of its body already occupies half the sky; it's hard to imagine how enormous its entire body must be!
Li Changzhou calmly rose, his Dao Fruit manifested, Dao Flowers bloomed, and the Divine Tree radiated a clear light.
Their sizes are completely disproportionate, yet a human and a snake are facing off.
The void continued to tremble, as if the spirit serpent had left from some celestial realm and was about to descend upon the mortal world, to destroy the primordial divine body before them by divine mandate.
The three tribulations of humanity, earth, and heaven are each more difficult than the last. In order to overcome this tribulation, Pangu even created heaven and earth, which is now the wilderness.
The only way for Li Changzhou to survive the tribulation is to defeat the spirit serpent, tear apart the Mountain and River Map, and shatter this corner of the blue sky.
It's very difficult, very difficult, but there's only one battle left!
Li Changzhou reached out and grabbed the Heavenly Mandate Banner in his hand.
Previously, he was pressed by Yanzi and unable to use his abilities, but now that the spirit serpent is manifesting, he has enough time to chant the incantation to break the seal.
However, the Heavenly Serpent is one of the ten most ferocious beasts in the wilderness, and with his abilities, he probably cannot unleash its full ferocity.
"Throughout the four seas and eight wastelands, destiny rests in my hands..."
Just then, a burst of dense ink light erupted—
Serpent Mist, the most profound master of divine arts.
A beam of light descended, and a slender, ethereal figure appeared atop the enormous, island-like triangular head of the spirit serpent.
It has a human body and a snake's tail, but the snake's tail is different from ordinary ones, with black and white intertwined, making it extremely mysterious.
The Great Hall of Mending Heaven.
"The Yin-Yang Twin Serpents!" someone exclaimed.
"This generation of Nuwa's holy maiden broke the record; the Mountain and River Map actually recognized her as its master at this time."
“The spirit only acts on instinct and doesn’t understand supernatural powers or magic. Now that it has recognized its master, this kid is doomed!”
Yanzi's daughter has a face that looks very much like her father's. She is stunningly beautiful with blood-red lips and is also a master of the imperial throne!
The rightful Yanzi clan!
She stared at Li Changzhou: "It's a pity that I can't personally kill my father's killer."
"Alright! Lan'er, kill him!" Old Snake exclaimed excitedly.
She no longer cared about the Emperor's Sword!
As long as She Lan kills him and obtains the Dao Fruit of the Star Spirit, Nuwa will return to the peak of the Primordial Era, or even become more powerful!
The map depicting mountains, rivers, and the state.
Yang Qinglan held a blue jade seal in his hand. This was the corner of the blue sky after Buzhou Mountain collapsed and the sky fell, and it was also the core of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers".
"roar!
!
The serpent roared to the sky, its fury reaching its peak, its eyes bloodshot.
Yang Qinglan lowered her head and calmly said, "Are you going to disobey the orders of the Earthly Sovereign Nuwa?"
The serpent stared intently at Li Changzhou, then with a thunderous roar, its body spun around, moving like a massive mountain range.
It rolled up the cyan jade seal, plunged into the void, and disappeared without a trace.
"...What happened?"
"Why did the spirit serpent leave?!"
"Take the Imperial Seal with you too!"
Many people stood up, not understanding what had happened.
Soon, they learned the answer.
The handsome young man, who was once intelligent and brave, and could be as fierce as a demon when he went berserk, said with a grin, "Thank you for your mercy, my lady."
My wife?!
My wife!
The Holy Maiden of the Serpent Clan, the Holy Maiden of the Serpent Clan who has been recognized as the master of the Mountain and River Map, and the next Nuwa, is actually this person's wife!
Nuwa herself coughed up blood.
Wasn't She Lan'er someone who never left Holy Serpent Mountain? When did she become this kid's wife?!
"Sister Lan'er, I really admire you." The bell rang, and Snake Ling'er appeared, clapping her hands lightly with a smile, "For a man, you can even give up the Map of Mountains and Rivers."
Yang Qinglan ignored her and said to Li Changzhou, "Be careful of the heavenly tribulation; no one can help you."
"With destiny in my hands, what is heavenly tribulation?" Li Changzhou was completely unconcerned. His reunion with Yang Qinglan filled him with fighting spirit.
Snake Ling'er glanced at the Heavenly Mandate Banner in Li Changzhou's hand and couldn't help but laugh:
“Young master, even the great god Pangu, who possessed the semi-sacred artifact, the Heaven-Opening Axe, could not survive the Heavenly Tribulation. Although the Heavenly Fate Serpent is powerful, it is still no match for the Heaven-Opening Axe.”
Is the Heaven-Opening Axe a semi-sacred artifact?
Just as Li Changzhou was about to speak, his whole body suddenly went numb.
A terrifying pressure descended, causing his knees to buckle and him to nearly kneel!
Rumble!
The sky was once again filled with lightning, each bolt as thick as a mountain. Amidst the endless lightning, the ancient well, shrouded in purple mist, locked onto Li Changzhou.
Unable to resist.
Absolutely impossible to resist.
Even if it were ten or a hundred times stronger, it still wouldn't survive the heavenly tribulation!
A sage's every word and action is ordained by Heaven. If the primordial divine body does not die, one is destined to become a sage. Obtaining such a supreme divine body is already extremely difficult, not to mention that Li Changzhou has always been a thorn in the side of Value Game.
This time, she finally found an opportunity!
“…Never mind.” He relaxed his body, letting go of his fighting spirit.
"Give up already?" Snake Ling'er teased, "Sister Lan'er, the man you gave up on isn't much either."
Li Changzhou looked up at the sky.
"I request to use the 'Do As You Please' technique to unleash a 'Pseudo-Winner's Stance' attack."
The ancient well, having gathered its strength, suddenly stopped.
The application has been accepted.
