I am the Mother of Earth. All souls belong to this place. Now that my merits have been fulfilled, I can immediately become a Saint. I will be known as Goddess Houtu! "
Houtu was dignified and solemn. A halo of holy light rose behind her as she bowed to the heavens with a devout expression. This was the promise she made back then. Today, she would become the seventh Saint of Heaven with the merits of the Heavenly Dao.
Rumble!
Golden rain fell from the sky as sweet springs gushed from the ground. Golden lotuses bloomed all over the sky as the Heavenly Dao's sacred voice sounded. Endless golden light of merits poured onto Houtu's body, causing her aura to grow stronger. She was slowly moving towards the Saint Realm.
At the same time!
The commotion caused by Houtu becoming a Saint was too great. The three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man could feel it. The hearts of all living beings trembled slightly. The six Saints of Heaven and Earth were even awakened from their cultivation.
…
Green Touring Palace!
"Could Ye Xuan have become a Saint?"
Tongtian was bewildered. Words of shock came from his mouth as he pinched his fingers to deduce. However, after more than ten breaths of time, he still could not deduce who the seventh Saint was!
"Heaven and Earth change, Yin and Yang move together. The person who is about to become a Saint is actually a woman?"
Tongtian's expression changed slightly. Although he did not deduce who was about to become a Saint, he did deduce that the person who was about to become a Saint was a woman who possessed great merits.
"Could Ye Xuan have really perished?"
Tongtian's expression turned ugly. He had great expectations for Ye Xuan and hoped that Ye Xuan could become the seventh Saint of Heaven. However, it seemed impossible now.
…
Jade Mirage Palace!
"Junior Brother, Junior Brother. You have always been defeated by me. The seventh Saint this time is a woman. Ye Xuan has no chance of becoming a Saint. He will be suppressed by the two Saints of the West forever. Let's see how you deal with it." Yuanshi Tianzun sat cross-legged on a green lotus as laughter came from his mouth.
…
Da da da!
A green ox was carrying an old man through the starry sky. The green ox looked cumbersome, but every step it took contained the trajectory of the Dao. The old man wore an Eight Trigrams Robe and did not reveal any aura, but he made people feel a sense of reverence when they looked at him.
"The Dao that can be said is not an ordinary Dao. The name that can be named is not an ordinary name …"
The sound of the Dao rumbled and the sea of stars surged. The old man slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.
"The birth of the seventh Saint means that the great calamity is about to begin. Will the Three Pure Ones be able to survive this great calamity?"
…
The Western Pure Land!
The Two Saints of the West, Xiang He, were no longer there. Their faces were ashen, and the world around them was collapsing. An uncontrollable rage was rising in their hearts.
"Damn it!"
Daoist Jie Yin let out a furious roar, and the void within a radius of ten million miles collapsed completely. The so-called merciful Buddha light destroyed everything, and even brought about a destructive disaster to the Western Pure Land.
"Why is this happening? Why is this happening? "Daoist Cundi gritted his teeth. He was also unable to accept this fact.
"The seventh Saint has been born. This person is not Ye Xuan. Why is this happening?" Daoist Cundi muttered to himself with hatred, and his brows were tightly knitted together.
It was no wonder that the Two Saints of the West were so irritable. They had spent so much effort to convert Ye Xuan because they believed that Ye Xuan was the seventh Saint of Heaven's Will. Now that the seventh Saint was about to be born, and it was a woman, how could they not be disappointed?
The Two Saints of the West had formed a Saint's Karma with Yuanshi and Nüwa, which was why they had taken Ye Xuan away.
This was the evil karma between Saints. However, in order to take Ye Xuan away, the Two Saints of the West had spared no expense to plot against Nüwa and Yuanshi, but in the end, it was all for naught. How could the Two Saints of the West not be irritable and disappointed?
"Ye Xuan, this little thief, should be killed." Cundi growled in a low voice.
"If you don't become a Saint, you're just an ant. Ye Xuan is no longer useful to you and me. Quickly summon him back and kill him. Don't let the other Saints know that you and I converted him." Jie Yin reminded in a cold voice.
"Senior Brother, the seventh Saint is about to be born. According to our calculations, this person is a woman and someone from the Underworld. We should hurry over," Cundi said in a low voice.
"Alright, you and I will meet the seventh Saint first. The Karma with Nüwa and Yuanshi must also be made up. I'm sure the other Saints will also go. When the time comes, you should act according to my signal," Jie Yin said in a low voice.
…
Nüwa Palace!
Nüwa's face was filled with joy. A golden cloud rose under her feet as she walked out of Nüwa Palace. She tore through the void and appeared outside the Thirty-third Heaven. Clearly, she was heading in the direction of the Underworld.
As a Saint, although Nüwa's cultivation was the lowest, she was extremely sensitive to the Way of Heaven. She did not know who had become a Saint, but according to her calculations, the person who had become a Saint was also a woman and someone from the Underworld.
Actually, to Nuwa, no matter who became a Saint, it didn't have much to do with her, as long as it wasn't Ye Xuan.
Back then, when the Two Saints of the West took Ye Xuan away, it became a sore point for Nüwa. She was deeply afraid that Ye Xuan was the seventh Saint and would definitely seek revenge in the future. However, now that the seventh Saint was about to be born, Nüwa felt relieved. She would no longer take Ye Xuan seriously.
"Little Ye Xuan, you deserve to die. When I meet the seventh Saint, I will definitely destroy your orthodoxy personally," Nüwa whispered coldly before disappearing into the starry sky.
…
Netherworld, beside the River of Forgetfulness.
Merit descended from the heavens as golden lotuses filled the sky. Houtu was bathed in the golden light of merit, and the holy light around her became denser. An aura that could suppress heaven and earth was spreading out. Clearly, she was only a step away from becoming a Saint. Perhaps she could become a Saint in the next moment.
"Establishing a heart for heaven and earth, establishing a life for all living beings. As Goddess Houtu, I can immediately become a Saint. May the Heavenly Dao be enlightened!" Houtu bowed three times to the heavens. This was also an oath to the Heavenly Dao, and it was also the final step to becoming a Saint through merit.
Pfft!
All of a sudden, something extremely shocking happened!
Houtu spat out a mouthful of golden blood. Her originally rosy face instantly paled, and she collapsed to the ground. Her body cracked like a spider web, and traces of blood seeped out.
Bang!
The golden light of merit exploded with a bang, and the world suddenly became extremely chaotic. Houtu kept spitting out blood, and the holy light that originally surrounded her gradually collapsed until only a faint trace was left.
"What … what happened?" Looking at the changes happening to Houtu, the Nether River Patriarch cried out in surprise and bewilderment. He could not believe his eyes.
At this moment, Ye Xuan looked indifferently with a calm expression. It was as if he had already expected this scene, and there was not the slightest hint of surprise on his face.
"Why? Why? "
"Why is this happening?"
Suddenly, Houtu's expression became miserable. Clear tears flowed from her eyes, and golden blood kept flowing out of her mouth. She even looked up at the sky and muttered to herself.
