The Yellow River, flowing through Shouyang Mountain and Kongtong Mountain, nourishes the two major ancestral lands of the human race and is considered the mother river of the human race.

The river water is relatively turbulent and violent, the water veins and terrain are more complex and changeable, and the spiritual energy is more abundant.

There are more demons entrenched in it, and they are more powerful, making it more difficult to control than the Yangtze River.

It was only after he had successfully managed the Yangtze River and accumulated enough experience that Dayu dared to take action on this vast water system.

However, he did not act rashly. After a series of detailed measurements and discussions, he led his army to cut through mountains and rocks and connect rivers.

Facts have proved that this river is indeed dangerous. In the first three hundred years alone, two Daluo demon gods and more than a dozen Taiyi demon kings were encountered.

There are countless little demons at the Golden Immortal level and below.

Fortunately, Dayu made sufficient preparations, and with the help of people from the Earthly Immortal Palace, the Dragon Clan and the Heavenly Palace.

All the demons that were obstructing the flood control were forcibly killed, and the two evil demon gods were forcefully suppressed.

Of course, there was also a wise demon who chose to retreat when he saw the flood control army coming, allowing the other side to open mountains and chisel rocks in his own cave.

Dayu did not kill all these demons, but let the Heavenly Court recruit them and then stopped interfering with them.

After all, he is Xuan Du's disciple, so it is normal for him to have his heart set on heaven.

Among these monsters, there are even a few Golden Immortals, which can be said to be a considerable force.

The Earthly Immortal Palace and the Dragon Clan did not point out Dayu's biased behavior. All they wanted was the merit of participating in flood control and controlling the human race's waters.

As for the affiliation of these demon gods, they don't care much.

Today, the scale of the Earthly Immortal Palace and the Dragon Clan are both quite large. Any one of them is far larger than the current Heavenly Palace.

Even though there were Daluo Jinxian among these recruited demon gods, they did not take it too seriously.

As long as it does not affect their ability to gain merit in flood control and their control over human waters, it does not matter if the Heavenly Court recruits these demon gods.

It is precisely because of this that both sides have been in perfect harmony along the way.

The Heavenly Court will focus on recruiting people, while the Earthly Immortal Palace and the Dragon Clan will be responsible for moving mountains and filling water to control floods.

But the Yellow River is the mother river of mankind after all. It covers a very wide area, has complex waterways, and has a large number of monsters hiding in it. It is still difficult and dangerous to control it.

The upper reaches of the Yellow River are not so bad, the waterways are not complicated, and with the help of the three powerful parties from the Earthly Immortal Palace, those obstructing demons are not a big deal.

As long as Dayu dredged the river and widened the riverbed, he could greatly alleviate the flood.

But in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, the waterway becomes more complicated, and there are many underground rivers.

The difficulty of governance suddenly increased by several levels. Even with the help of the dragon clan, it is not an easy task to thoroughly understand the situation of the water system.

Fortunately, on the day when the Earthly Immortal Palace was established, Zhen Yuanzi pardoned a man named Feng Yi, also known as Bing Yi, as the Lord of the Yellow River.

He was originally an ancient water god, and his cultivation was not outstanding in the prehistoric times, with only the cultivation level of the early Daluo Golden Immortal.

Now, with the help of the luck and merits of the Earth Immortal Palace, he has broken through a few years ago and entered the middle stage of Daluo Golden Immortal. In the Earth Immortal Palace, he is considered to be at the upper-middle level.

He has a human face and a dragon's body, and often appears riding two water dragons.

After receiving Dayu's request, he did not think much about it, but nodded with a smile, agreed to it, and chose to take action personally to escort Dayu.

As a member of the Earth Immortal Palace and the River God of the Yellow River, how could he not know about the transaction between the Earth Immortals and the human race? From the moment Dayu entered the Yellow River, he was waiting for the human race leader Sanmen to ask for help.

He was well aware of the importance of the Yellow River to human beings. Once Dayu successfully controlled the Yellow River and eliminated the monsters along the way, he would be able to take advantage of the opportunity to completely control the power of the Yellow River.

More importantly, without the problem of flooding, human beings will have a deeper dependence on the Yellow River.

Whether it is for daily drinking or to irrigate farmland, the Yellow River is needed.

As the God of the Yellow River, as long as he manages the river well and ensures good weather and harvests for the human race, he will be able to gain more worship from the human race.

The incense contains the destiny of the human race.

Coupled with his good fortune as a terrestrial immortal, as long as Bingyi devoted himself to practice for countless years, he would sooner or later enter the late stage of Daluo Jinxian, and even achieve perfection one day.

Bingyi has been in the Yellow River for tens of thousands of years and knows this river system like the back of his hand.

Under his guidance, Dayu's flood control was like a god's help, especially the water-avoiding sword he gave to Dayu, which greatly enhanced his water combat capabilities.

A thousand years later, the Yellow River system was managed.

To celebrate this event, Dayu married Tushan's daughter, a nine-tailed white fox.

But he did not indulge in the gentle countryside. After his wedding, he rushed to the next water system without stopping.

…

Guixu, a Taoist temple hidden in the clouds.

Huang Long had always been concerned about human efforts to control floods, and knew that Dayu would control the Huaihe River system next.

In this water system, he will encounter an obstacle as powerful as Xiangliu, that is Wuzhiqi.

Xiangliu has died at the hands of Ao Guang. If he can subdue Wuzhiqi again, he will surely get considerable merit when Dayu attains enlightenment.

Ao Guangka has been in the late stage of quasi-saint for many years. If he could gain more merits, he might be able to break through that barrier and enter the realm of half-step quasi-saint great perfection.

Huang Long is the leader of the dragon clan after all. With such a good opportunity, he naturally wants to help Ao Guang.

After sending a message to Ao Guang, Huang Long continued to meditate in seclusion to comprehend the great Dao.

Huang Long is now a saint of the third level. It is not an easy task to break through again.

At least two more Dao fruits must be condensed before one can make further progress.

But even so, compared with other saints of the Heavenly Dao, his situation is much better. At least he is very clear about the path he wants to take.

On the other hand, the saints of Heavenly Dao are still very confused about the future. Daozu Hongjun will not and has no way to guide them on the way forward.

When they reach this level, everything depends on personal perception.

Everyone has his or her own path to follow, and it is not feasible to rely on guidance from outsiders.

…

While Huanglong was in seclusion, Dayu also brought his army to the last large water system.

The Huaihe River system, located in the central part of the human territory, is a large river system second only to the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.

Compared with the previous two water systems, the initial management of the Huaihe River system was much smoother.

After all, the monsters in the Huaihe River system are not fools, and the events on the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are such a big deal.

Unless one has bad relationships with others or is on the verge of death, it is impossible for him not to know about the flood caused by the human race joining forces with the dragon race, the Earth Immortal Palace and the Heavenly Court.

If it were only humans who were controlling the flood, they would not pay too much attention to it. After all, humans have limited strength and have many concerns, so they are not really that afraid.

However, with the support of the three dragon tribes, they had to take this matter seriously.

Especially with the precedents of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, they dare not ignore this matter.

After weighing the pros and cons, many demons chose to leave the human territory.

The ancient world is vast, so it is not difficult to find another place to live.

But more demons chose to actively seek out the Queen Mother of the West and express their intention to surrender.

Although the current strength of Heaven is not as good as that of Earthly Immortal Palace and Dragon Clan.

But the Heavenly Court is the orthodox one in the prehistoric world after all, and it has the support of the saints of heaven behind it. Sooner or later, it will become another behemoth in the prehistoric world.

It would be a good choice to choose to join the Heavenly Court while it is still weak.

It was precisely because of the choice of these demons that the flood control army did not encounter much trouble along the way.

It was not until the army reached the middle reaches of the Huai River, near Tongbai Mountain, that Dayu and his men encountered a tough opponent.

The source of this disaster was Wuzhiqi.

Wuzhiqi is a great demon in ancient times, and also the red-butted horse monkey, one of the four great spirit monkeys. He knows yin and yang, understands human affairs, is good at coming and going, and can avoid death and prolong life.

Even when Jiu Tian Xuan Nu and others joined forces, they were easily defeated and ended up fleeing in embarrassment.

Inside the Huaihe River Water Palace.

It is indeed an exciting thing to be able to defeat Dayu and others by one's own strength.

But Wuzhiqi frowned. He was a red-butted horse monkey and had the talent to sense fortune, misfortune, life and death.

He sensed the danger before Dayu and others came over.

If humans are allowed to manage the Huaihe River system, it will affect the future path.

That's why he started a rebellion and lured Dayu and his men here, hoping to defeat them and save the Huaihe River system.

However, after Wuzhiqi defeated Dayu and others, the danger not only did not disappear, but became more intense and turned into a deadly threat.

But how could he be willing to give up the Huaihe River system? He had been in control of the Huaihe River since ancient times, and his whole life was connected with this river system.

If he left the Huai River, even if he could save his life, his path would be ruined, and it would be even more difficult for him to make any progress in his cultivation in the future.

When one reaches his level of practice, seeking the truth becomes his only pursuit.

Rather than living a miserable life, he would rather fight for the great cause and never regret it even if he dies.

…

At the same time, in Tongbai Mountain, inside the human camp.

Dayu, Lady of the Nine Heavens and others all frowned. Wuzhiqi was even more difficult to deal with than Xiangliu.

"This water monkey is very powerful. You and I cannot defeat it. Now the flood control has reached the final stage."

"In order to avoid any unnecessary trouble, I decided to ask Ao Guang for help to resolve this matter as soon as possible. What do you think?"

After so many years of flood control, he has long been accustomed to calling people.

Anyway, the credit for flood control will be shared by the Dragon Clan, the Earthly Immortal Palace and the Heavenly Palace, so why not let them do more?

Of course, the more effort you put in, the more merit you will receive in the future.

If possible, Dayu would like to ask the Heavenly Court to do more.

It’s a pity that the population of Heaven is now sluggish, and Lady of the West is already a powerful figure in Heaven.

But even she was no match for Xiangliu, let alone defeat Wuzhiqi.

Although there are still Daluo Jinxian in the Heavenly Palace, their strength is at most comparable to hers.

If the Heavenly Court wants to deal with Wuzhiqi, it can only let Haotian's Shanshi take action, which is somewhat unreasonable.

In addition, Huanglong attached great importance to the prehistoric waters and prehistoric land. Even if Dayu's master, Xuandu, had the ability to subdue Wuzhiqi, he could not take action under the pressure of the saint.

In desperation, he could only give this merit to Ao Guang of the dragon clan.

Of course, he could also ask the three ancestors of the human race for help.

But this is a test for Dayu, and they will not act easily.

They did not take action during the time of the Three Sovereigns and Four Emperors, and they will not do so this time.

Moreover, if a quasi-saint were to go mad in the human territory, it would cause extremely terrible harm.

Therefore, it would be better to leave this matter to Ao Guang.

The other people present also understood this and nodded in agreement to Dayu's question.

Finally, Dayu came to the East China Sea in person and asked Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, for help.

Ao Guang had already received Huang Long's message and knew that Dayu would come for help.

Therefore, after listening to Dayu's request, he agreed.

However, he did not go directly to the human territory, but went to Wuzhuang Temple first, got a seal, and then came to the human territory.

There is no water god or river god in the Huai River. Wuzhiqi has been entrenched in the Huai River for a long time and is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Besides, Huang Long still had a use for Wuzhiqi, and he didn't want to suppress Wuzhiqi just like that.

The Huai River surges and rushes endlessly.

When Dayu came again with the strong men of the human race, Wuzhiqi, without saying a word, displayed his magical power to turn rivers and seas upside down, causing huge waves.

Immediately following.

He raised the iron rod in his hand, causing the boundless river water to wrap around it, and smashed towards Dayu with tremendous force.

This stick seemed to carry the power of the entire Huai River, causing the sky to change color and the wind to howl.

It was Wuzhiqi's full-strength attack! It was also the attack he was most proud of! When Dayu came over this time, his sense of danger became stronger and stronger. He had a premonition that if he didn't handle it well today, he would die in the Huai River.

He has a strong character and he won't sit and wait for death even if it means death.

But at this moment, a dragon roar came from the clouds, and a huge golden dragon head emerged from the clouds and looked at Wuzhiqi on the river.

At the critical moment, Ao Guang took action.

With the appearance of his dragon roar, the turbulent Huai River suddenly returned to calm.

Wuzhiqi's terrifying attack no longer had the same momentum as before.

"No, this is not yours..."

Wuzhiqi had lived in the prehistoric world for countless years, so it was natural that he had heard of the name of Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea.

What he feared most was that the human race would invite Ao Guang.

I didn't expect that what I feared would come true.

However, although Ao Guang is strong, he is not strong to this extent. This is obviously not Ao Guang's strength.

"roar--!"

However, Ao Guang did not give Wuzhiqi a chance to speak.

With a roar, he stripped Wuzhiqi of his control over the Huai River. The water of the Huai River turned into nine chains, locking Wuzhiqi's body and dragging him to the bottom of the Huai River.

Afterwards, Ao Guang transformed into a human form and flew to the bottom of the river, appearing in front of Wuzhiqi.

"Wuzhiqi, are you willing to become the god of the Huai River and help Dayu control the floods to make up for your mistakes?"

Hearing this, Wuzhiqi was stunned and stopped struggling.

He didn't expect that Ao Guang would deprive Huaihe of his authority and tie him up with a crushing force.

Instead of suppressing him, he was invited to become the god of the Huai River.

As for whether Ao Guang was lying, Wuzhiqi felt that there was no such possibility.

In this situation, there was absolutely no need for Ao Guang to lie.

Moreover, the fatal threat disappeared after Ao Guang asked this question.

Wuzhiqi was surprised, but a little bit unbelieving, and couldn't help asking: "Is what the Dragon King said serious?"

Ao Guang spoke with finality and force.

"There is no need for this king to lie. This is the pardon from the god of the Huai River..."

At this point, he paused, took out a scroll, and his expression became solemn. He said in a deep voice: "Wuzhiqi, are you willing to become the god of the Huai River and be included in the list of the Earthly Immortal Palace?"

"From now on, you will be responsible for dredging the river, slaying demons and protecting peace on both sides of the river?"
