Time passed. Outside Chen Du, a high platform had already been erected on an empty plain. This was the altar that the Human Race had built for the abdication ceremony of the Human Race's Common Lord. The altar was about a hundred feet tall and was square in shape. Although there were no exquisite carvings on it, it exuded a majestic and majestic aura. This was the blessing of the Human Race's will.
Around the high platform, many leaders of the Human Tribe had gathered. After receiving Fuxi's invitation, they hurried over. The Abdication Ceremony of the Human Tribe's Common Lord was the most important event of the Human Tribe. As the leaders of various tribes, how could they be absent? Compared with the time when Fuxi became the Human Tribe's Common Lord, there were many more people here to observe the ceremony, which was the best proof of the Human Tribe's development.
When the auspicious time arrived, Fuxi and Shennong slowly walked up to the highest step of the high platform. On the lower step stood their masters, Liu Er and Kong Xuan. At this time, Liu Er was still somewhat emotional. Of course, he knew Fuxi's origin. After today, their master-disciple relationship would come to an end.
On the top of the high platform, Fuxi lit three incense sticks and inserted them into the incense burner. This was a prayer for the Great Desolation Sages. The Sages were the supreme existences in the Great Desolation. If they could be invited to observe the ceremony, it would naturally be a good thing.
Not long after the incense sticks were lit, people came from the sky one after another on their mounts. The first three were Nüwa, who was riding a Golden Phoenix, Lao Tzu, who was riding a Green Ox, and River Styx, who was riding a Blood Jade Kirin. Then came Primogenitor Yuanshi, who was riding a David's Deer, and the Tongtian Hierarch, who was riding a Kui Ox.
Looking at the first five people to arrive, all the humans knelt down in unison. "Greetings to the Holy Mother, Sage Taiqing, Sage Yuqing, Sage Shangqing, and Patriarch River Styx." It was the Human Race's supreme honor to have all five Sages present.
Suddenly, Sanskrit chants sounded from the west, and golden flowers fell from the sky. It was very beautiful and alluring, and many humans were mesmerized by it. When the Sages saw this, they all snorted, and the golden Sanskrit chants disappeared immediately. The people who were mesmerized also recovered immediately. They wondered what had happened to them just now, and for a moment, they couldn't control themselves.
After a while, two auspicious clouds floated from the west. Upon closer look, they were the two Sages of Zhunti, Summon and Zhunti, who were rushing to this place. Not long after, the two Sages of Zhunti and Zhunti arrived. Now that there was a Master of the Human Sovereign in the west, how could they not come to the ceremony?
Of course, in addition to the Sages, many powerful people who had been living in seclusion during the Great Desolation came to watch the ceremony. Zhen Yuanzi was one of them. He was not interested in the Human Sovereign. The reason why he came was because his old friend, Hongyun, had reincarnated, and River Styx had promised the second Human Sovereign.
However, when Zhen Yuanzi saw Shennong, he frowned, because he found that Shennong didn't have the aura of Hongyun at all. He was just an ordinary human. Zhen Yuanzi had a bad feeling. He looked up at River Styx, and River Styx also frowned. They looked at each other, and Zhen Yuanzi could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart. He would discuss with River Styx after the ceremony.
River Styx naturally discovered that Shennong was not Hongyun, because Shennong didn't have the Dragon Qi of the Human Sovereign that he had injected into Hongyun's Primordial Spirit. Moreover, Shennong's Primordial Spirit was just an ordinary human Primordial Spirit, not like the reincarnation of a Quasi-saint. If Hongyun had not reincarnated as Shennong, then where had he gone?
But now that the Human Sovereign's abdication ceremony was taking place, River Styx couldn't say anything. He could only calculate Hongyun's whereabouts silently. However, he found that the Mysteries of Heaven were in chaos, as if someone had disturbed the Mysteries of Heaven. He couldn't find any trace of Hongyun.
River Styx immediately frowned. Although it didn't affect him much whether Hongyun had become the Earthly Sovereign, he was concerned about who had interfered with his plan. If he couldn't find this person, River Styx would always feel uneasy.
At this moment, a group of Human Race flew over from the eastern sky, led by the Four Ancestors of the Human Race. When the Human Race saw them, they all knelt down and said, "Greetings, Human Ancestor." Although the Four Ancestors of the Human Race hadn't appeared for a long time, their prestige in the Human Race was deeply rooted.
Suiren looked at the kneeling Human Race and said, "Get up, all of you. We're only here to observe the ceremony. You may begin!" Looking at Fuxi on the altar, Suiren's mood was still very complicated.
Others didn't know about Fuxi's identity, but the Three Ancestors did. It was Mu Sen who told them, but they didn't object. One reason was out of respect for Goddess Nüwa. Another was that Fuxi had indeed made great contributions to the Human Race. Moreover, before reincarnating, he had promised that he would only be Fuxi for the Human Race in this life, so the Three Ancestors tacitly accepted this fact.
With everyone present, the abdication ceremony officially began. Fuxi walked up to the platform and loudly announced: "Today, the Human Race's Fuxi has been the ruler of the Human Race for one hundred years. Today, his merit has been fulfilled, so I hereby pass the position of ruler to Virtuous Paragon Shennong. From now on, Shennong shall be the new ruler of the Human Race."
At this time, Mu Sen took out the Kongtong Seal and softly said: "Renhuang, rise." The Kongtong Seal let out a dragon roar. Suddenly, a thick stream of Dragon Qi of the Human Emperor flew out and directly entered Fuxi's body. Fuxi's entire body became dazzling.
The Human Race loudly chanted the names of Fuxi and Shennong. At this time, a thick stream of Golden Light of Virtue shot down from the sky. The Human Race didn't understand this and just stared at the Golden Light of Virtue, not knowing what it was.
When the Golden Light of Virtue approached the Human Race, eighty percent of it entered Fuxi's body, ten percent landed on Taoist Liu Er, five percent merged into the Kongtong Seal, and the other half went to the Human Race Elders who assisted Fuxi and the Water Kirin who brought food to Huaxu.
When the Golden Light of Virtue entered Fuxi's body, he closed his eyes. At the same time, his body began to emit a strong golden light, which stunned all the Human Race under the platform. After a while, the Golden Light of Virtue finally began to fade. Fuxi opened his eyes, which were full of vicissitudes and joy. He shouted: "My name is Fuxi, my name is Fuxi!"
At the same time, a guqin flew over. It was Fuxi's companion, the Lingbao Fuxi Guqin. Sensing that Fuxi had escaped from the tribulation, it automatically returned to its master.
At this time, Fuxi had become one of the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race, the Heavenly Sovereign. Although his cultivation was not as high as that of a Quasi-saint, he was still immortal and indestructible. As long as the Human Race existed, he would be safe and sound.
Liu Er received the Merits of Human Sovereign, but he didn't absorb them. Instead, he put them away. It was not a good time for him to cut off the Good Corpse. When he found one of the remaining Four Spiritual Monkeys, he could use this Merits to cut off the Good Corpse. When the conditions were right, success would come naturally.
Of course, Nüwa was the happiest person to know that Fuxi had attained Tao. However, when she thought that Fuxi was now part of the Human Race, she felt somewhat upset. Fortunately, Fuxi had recovered his memories of his previous life. Even if he was part of the Human Race, he was still her elder brother. This was a fact that couldn't be changed.
Seeing that Fuxi had attained Tao, Lao Tzu said: "Daoist Friend, since you have attained Tao, you shouldn't stay in the mortal world for too long. Please go to the Fire Cloud Cave to cultivate and suppress the fate of the Human Race. Don't go out unless it's a big deal." Upon hearing Lao Tzu's words, Nüwa's expression changed greatly. This was simply a disguised house arrest. How could she agree?
Before Nüwa could say anything, Mu Sen spoke first: "Sage Taiqing, Fuxi is the first Human Sovereign of the Human Race. The palaces of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors have been built in the Holy Land of the Human Race. Since Fuxi has attained Tao, he should stay in the Holy Land of the Human Race. As for suppressing the fate of the Human Race, the Holy Land of the Human Race can do it."
Upon hearing Mu Sen's words, Suiren and the other two said in unison: "Sage Taiqing, you don't have to worry about the Human Race. The Human Sovereign's departure will be decided by the Human Race. It's only right for Human Sovereign Fuxi to come to the Holy Land of the Human Race and suppress the fate of the Human Race."
Upon hearing this, Lao Tzu's expression changed slightly. However, he quickly returned to normal and said calmly: "Since the Human Ancestor has made a decision, then so be it!" Since the Four Ancestors of the Human Race had said so, Lao Tzu naturally had no reason to object. After all, his Ren School no longer had a transcendent status in the Human Race.
Upon hearing this, Nüwa immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Although they were both suppressing the fate of the Human Race, there was a big difference between staying in the Fire Cloud Cave and the Holy Land of the Human Race. At least in the Holy Land of the Human Race, Fuxi would not lose his freedom. Nüwa couldn't help but look at River Styx with gratitude. In her opinion, Mu Sen must have been instructed by River Styx to say so.
