"Your servant Fang Jian pays homage to the goddess Nuwa." Fang Jian walked to the center of the hall and paid homage to the goddess Nuwa.
Nuwa raised her hand and said softly, "Stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Jian stood up.
At this time, Nuwa asked, "Are you here regarding the Chaos Demon?"
Fang Jian said, "Your Majesty, that's right."
Nuwa said: "There are fifty Heavenly Daos, forty-nine of which are derived from Heaven. If one is missing, it becomes a variable."
Fang Jian heard this and said, "My Lady, could this Chaos Evil God be the variable?"
Nuwa smiled and said, "All variables are due to that 'one that escaped,' and that naturally includes the Chaos Evil God. This is why I allowed the Chaos Evil God to enter the world. The awakening of the Chaos Will is the biggest variable right now."
Fang Jian asked, "May I ask, Madam, since you have now become one with the Way of Heaven, can you take back this 'escaped one'?"
Upon hearing this, Nuwa sat up straight. "Fang Jian, do you believe that there is anything perfect and beautiful under the Great Dao?"
Fang Jian thought for a moment and said, "I don't know."
Nuwa said, "The sun wanes, and the moon waxes. Mirror, there is nothing perfect and beautiful under the Great Dao, including the Dao of Heaven. Or rather, it is the lack that is perfect, and the perfect that is lacking."
Fang Jian was stunned. There seemed to be some profound truth in this, but he couldn't figure it out for the time being.
Seeing his expression, Nuwa immediately decided to give him another warning. "Fang Jian, ordinary people believe that 'perfection without flaws' is the Way of Heaven. However, the Way of Heaven encompasses all things. Little do people know that 'imperfection' is also a part of the Way of Heaven. Therefore, for the Way of Heaven, 'fulfillment and imperfection' is 'perfection'."
Fang Jian suddenly realized, as if it had dawned on him, that the Way of Heaven encompasses everything, and everything is within the Way of Heaven. Perfection is the Way of Heaven, so is imperfection; right is the Way of Heaven, so is wrong; cleanliness is the Way of Heaven, so is filth.
Nuwa said, "So, in terms of the Way of Heaven, there is no such thing as 'perfection and perfection', only 'the Way follows nature'."
Fang Jian immediately bowed and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty. I understand."
"No." Nuwa shook her head and said, "Fang Jian, you don't understand.
This sentence confused Fang Jian again. He thought he did understand, but Nuwa said he did not understand.
Fang Jian couldn't figure it out and didn't dare to ask, but he chose to believe what Nuwa said. After all, the gap between their realms was not a little bit.
Thinking of this, Fang Jian immediately straightened his attitude and bowed, "Then may I ask, Your Majesty, how should we deal with the Chaos Demon? Or, in other words, how can we completely eliminate the Chaos Demon?"
Nuwa said, "The origin of the Chaos Demon is the Boundless Chaos. As long as the Boundless Chaos exists, the Chaos Demon will be difficult to exterminate."
"The Chaos Demon relies on nothing but the power of Chaos. Its power is infinite, dependent on the number of sacrifices it receives. However, harnessing it isn't easy. The Chaos God of Tushan was already at the end of his rope after you shattered his statue. He harnessed the power of Chaos to repel your Chaos Bell and then escaped. If we can find his roots, repeatedly destroy his statues, and convert his followers, within three attempts, his roots will crumble, making it impossible for him to sustain his existence in the mortal world, and he will vanish into thin air."
"These evil gods can only mobilize the power of chaos to escape, but they cannot directly engage in combat or battle with others. They can only rely on their followers. Therefore, even the most ordinary cultivators can destroy an evil god as long as they can find its roots and use the correct methods."
Fang Jian said, "But, Madam, once that evil god mobilizes the power of chaos, even my innate spiritual treasure will not be able to suppress him."
Nuwa said, "That's because your cultivation is insufficient, which limits the power of your innate spiritual treasure. If you were a Daluo Jinxian, he would never have been able to escape from Mount Tu, unless the power he received from the sacrifices had reached the Daluo Jinxian level."
Nuwa was very direct and told Fang Jian clearly that it was his lack of strength that limited the use of his innate spiritual treasure.
However, Fang Jian had known this for a long time, so he was not "deterred". He simply said again: "Please, Your Majesty, guide me and teach us how to suppress the evil spirit."
Nuwa held up three fingers and said, "It's just three points."
"First, the three realms of beings are prohibited from offering sacrifices, worshipping, or worshipping evil gods. This is the duty of your Heavenly Court."
"Second, when dealing with evil spirits, one should search for and grasp their roots, then persistently pursue them, destroy their statues, and convert their followers in order to eradicate them. One should not act hastily."
"Third, monks and ordinary people should 'uphold righteousness and shun evil, and practice the righteous path.' Cultivate a righteous spirit, accumulate good and righteous virtues, and naturally they will not fear evil spirits."
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your guidance."
Nuwa hummed, then slowly closed her eyes and waved her hand, saying, "Caifeng, please see my guest off for me."
"Yes." Caifeng responded.
When Fang Jian heard this, he couldn't help but think to himself, "The Empress is really becoming more and more austere. She didn't even prepare tea for the guests before sending them away."
But just as Fang Jian turned around after bidding farewell to Nuwa, he heard Nuwa say, "Caifeng, take a bag of the best spiritual tea and give it to Emperor Hongqing to take away."
Caifeng: "Yes, my lady."
Fang Jian: “…” Then, his face flushed, he turned around with a drooping brow and bowed, saying, “I thank the Goddess Nuwa for her gift.”
