Five Sages in one day. What kind of scene was this? The entire Great Desolation was in an uproar because of this. The birth of the Sages was an auspicious sign from the heavens. Countless creatures were enlightened because of this. The world of the Great Desolation seemed to have been baptized. Many famous mountains and rivers were restored to their former vitality. The spiritual energy in the world was also richer than before.
On the Sacred Island of the Blood Sea, River Styx sat and watched the five people become Sages. He knew that the era of the Sages had completely arrived. In the future, both open and covert struggles would be extraordinary. One careless move and the whole game would be lost. Fortunately, the Sages were not monolithic. Even if they were Sanqing, it would not be long before they split up.
There were no eternal friends or enemies between the Sages. There were only benefits. For example, during the War of Investiture of the Gods, Lao Tzu and Yuanshi invited Zhunti and Summon from the West in order to deal with the Tongtian. They completely forgot about their brotherhood and did it for the fate of their great sect. On the contrary, although Zhunti and Summon were not brothers, their friendship was more stable than that of the Sanqing.
However, there was one thing that surprised River Styx. With the birth of the Sages, the spiritual energy in the world of the Great Desolation had recovered. Before the Longhan Cultivation Tribulation, the spiritual energy in the world was abundant. Many famous mountains and rivers were filled with spiritual energy like rain. But now, there were not many places that could have such a scene. As time passed, the spiritual energy in the world became thinner and thinner.
But now, with the birth of the Sages, the spiritual energy in the world had recovered. How could River Styx not be suspicious? When Nüwa was born, River Styx did not think too much about it. He only focused on his Self Corpse and the Human Race. But now, it seemed that the spiritual energy in the world had recovered a little since then. It was just that River Styx did not notice it.
But now, with the birth of five Sages in one day, the spiritual energy in the world had recovered by nearly 30%. How could River Styx not notice it? Could it be because of the birth of the Sages and the auspicious sign from the heavens? No, that shouldn't be the case. Auspicious signs descended from the heavens, and the concentration of spiritual energy was only temporary. It shouldn't be like this at all. The spiritual energy of the entire Great Desolation had increased by 30%.
Could it be that Minghe suddenly looked up at the sky? Could it be that the Way of Heaven had become stronger? Or could it be that the Way of Heaven had become more perfect? The birth of the Sages was a sign of Tendo's general trend. The Sages' powers were boundless. Although they could easily cause damage to the Great Desolation, their birth could indeed make Tendo more perfect. The recovery of the world's spiritual energy could also be explained.
Once the Tendo was perfected, the combat strength of the Sages would increase as well. After all, they could borrow the power of the Tendo. This was not good news for River Styx. However, once they reached the Primordial Chaos Realm, the Sages could not casually attack. The consequences of a great battle were unpredictable. For now, River Styx did not have any conflicts with the six Sages, so he did not have to worry for the time being. He only needed to concentrate on his cultivation and increase his strength.
… ….
The birth of the five Sages had a great impact on the Great Desolation. Naturally, the Shamans and Demons were the first to bear the brunt. Originally, the Shamans and Demons could be said to be the masters of the Great Desolation. After Nüwa was born, the status of the Demons increased again. After that, River Styx became a Sage (they thought), the status of the Shamans and Demons decreased slightly.
However, it was different now. With the birth of another five Sages, the status of the Shamans and Demons in the Great Desolation dropped again and again. Moreover, the five Sages could be said to belong to two forces. One was the Sanqing, and the other was the West. Neither side could be offended by the Shamans and Demons.

In the Pangu Palace, the Twelve Zu Wu gathered together to discuss the matter of becoming a Sage. Now that the Great Desolation had six Sages and River Styx, the Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial Chaos, the only remaining Hongmeng Purple Qi was with Houtu. However, the Wu people did not have Primordial Spirits, so Houtu could not understand the mysteries of the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
Now, the Twelve Sorcerer Ancestors were also anxious. At least the Demon Clan had Saint Nuwa. However, although the Sorcerer Tribe had the Pangu Real Body, it could not be used for a long time. Only when Houtu became a Saint would the Sorcerer Tribe have a true backer.
Di River looked at Houtu's worried face and felt helpless. Although the Hongmeng Purple Qi was the foundation of the Great Way, it seemed that it was not easy to become a Sage with it. Houtu had obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi for so many years, but he had not gained anything.
Di River turned to the Candle Dragon who was in deep thought. His second brother had always been smart, so he could only ask for his opinion now. "Second brother, Sister Houtu has obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi for thousands of years, but she has not gained any insight into becoming a Sage. Now that all the Sages of the Great Desolation have appeared, the Wu people are under great pressure. Is there any way to help Sister Houtu become a Sage as soon as possible?"
Hearing Di River's question, the Candle Dragon hesitated and said, "I don't know how to help Houtu become a Sage as soon as possible, but based on the current situation, I only have two suggestions for Sister Houtu to become a Sage. As for whether it will work or not, I can't say."
Di River hurriedly asked, "Second brother, what suggestions do you have? Tell me quickly. As long as it is feasible, we will help Sister Houtu become a Sage even if we have to use the power of the Wu people. Once the Wu people have a Sage, the other Sages will have to think twice before attacking us."
The Candle Dragon said, "My first suggestion is that Sister travel around the Great Desolation the day after tomorrow and see if you can find your own Fated Chance. Nüwa and Lao Tzu both found their Fated Chances when they traveled around the Great Desolation, while the other four Sages became Sages because of Lao Tzu. It can be seen that if you just stay at home, it will be difficult for you to find the Fated Chance to become a Sage."
"As for the second suggestion," the Candle Dragon said with some hesitation, "River Styx doesn't have the Hongmeng Purple Qi, but he became the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian with his own cultivation. It can be seen that he is extraordinary. Moreover, the Hongmeng Purple Qi in Sister Houtu's body originally belonged to River Styx. Since River Styx chose to make a deal with the Wu people, it is probably because he realized something, and he didn't really want to repay Father's Karma and that deal as he said. If Sister travels around the Great Desolation without any results, you can go to the Blood Sea to ask River Styx for advice. Maybe he can show you the way to become a Sage."
Di River thought it was reasonable. The Great Desolation was the Wu people's territory, so Houtu wouldn't encounter any danger. Moreover, except for River Styx and Zu Wu, no one knew that the last Hongmeng Purple Qi was in Houtu. Even if there was danger, they could go to help at any time.
Di River looked at Houtu. These two suggestions still needed Houtu to make the final decision on whether he should follow the first suggestion or go to River Styx directly. Seeing that his brother and sister were looking at him, Houtu said, "I'd better travel around the Great Desolation first. Maybe I can find the Fated Chance to become a Sage. If it doesn't work, I'll go to the Blood Sea to ask River Styx. After all, it is better to realize the Fated Chance on your own."

In the backyard of Wu Zhuang Taoist Temple, Zhen Yuanzi stood in front of the swaying ginseng fruit tree with a serious face. Just now, he had received a message from River Styx, and the content of the message was certainly not a trivial matter. Therefore, he came to the ginseng fruit tree to discuss with his old friend, Hongyun.
Although Hongyun only had a wisp of his soul left, he was a Quasi-saint after all. With a wisp of his soul, he could be reborn. After thousands of years of cultivation and the nourishment of Sanguang Holy Water, Hongyun's soul had grown a lot stronger. He had also recovered his consciousness and could communicate with others.
In the ginseng fruit tree, Hongyun looked at Zhen Yuanzi and asked, "Zhen Yuanzi, what did River Styx say in the letter?" Zhen Yuanzi and he were good friends, so Zhen Yuanzi naturally would not hide anything from him. Hongyun was naturally very happy that his old friend could have the Chance to attain Taoism. After going through a life-and-death ordeal, Hongyun had also become open-minded. Thinking back to the time when he was reluctant to part with Hongmeng's Purple Qi, he felt a little amused.
Zhen Yuanzi said, "River Styx sent me a letter, asking me to pass down Taoism to the Human Tribe." Previously, after being instructed by River Styx, he had carefully studied the accompanying Earth Book of Lingbao. Naturally, he had also discovered the secret hidden in the Earth Book. This must be the Chance mentioned by River Styx. However, if he wanted to establish the Taoism of Earthly Immortals, Zhen Yuanzi alone was not enough. He needed a huge force.
In the Great Desolation, there were still many rogue cultivators except for the Witches and Demons. However, even if he recruited all of them, compared to the vast and boundless land of the Great Desolation, it was still a drop in the bucket. Now that River Styx asked him to pass down Taoism to the Human Tribe, it opened another door for him.
