As soon as he sat down in the cave, Lu Sheng was about to take out the things he had collected from his Sumeru Pouch.
Suddenly, his hair stood on end. He could clearly feel that something was watching him. Almost reflexively, he rushed out of the cave and looked in the direction of the Snake Demon.
Sure enough, the Snake Demon was smiling in his direction. It seemed to be hinting at him.
No … it was not smiling at him. Lu Sheng suddenly turned his head and saw a golden flame falling from the sky behind him. It turned into a handsome white-haired man in a brocade robe.
The man bowed in the direction of the Snake Demon.
"The merit of mending the heavens belongs to those who are capable. If you are interested, you can help." The man's tone was calm, but the meaning behind it was profound.
"Very well. The Three Pure Ones have sent us the Giant Turtle. My brother Fuxi has sent us the Yin and Yang Eight Trigrams Furnace. The Rainbow Stone is my treasure. Who else is willing to help?" The Snake Demon asked calmly.
"I can survey the positions of the four poles." A golden halo appeared in the sky far away. A middle-aged Taoist with a sallow complexion was sitting in it.
Lu Sheng was shocked. There were so many people beside him, but he did not notice them at all.
He had already noticed that something was wrong. It was very likely that this group of people were either at the peak of the Sage-to-be or real Sages.
For example, the golden-robed man beside him gave him a strong sense of threat. Even his own body was hidden in the deepest part of his spirit to avoid being discovered.
Without saying anything, Lu Sheng turned into flames and flew away from the man's position. He flew for thousands of miles before landing on another Buzhou Mountain fragment.
The golden-robed man's expression did not change. It seemed that he did not care about Lu Sheng's departure. His eyes were still staring at the Snake Demon, or Nuwa.
When he was far away, Lu Sheng was shocked to find that the air and the Lunar Cold Current behind the man were unconsciously and naturally flowing, forming a huge Yin Yang Diagram.
"Fuxi!" This was the first name that popped up in his mind.
"Where did this kid come from? The Sages saving the world is not something you can meddle with." Before Lu Sheng could react, he suddenly felt a cold attack coming from behind him.
Puchi!
Just as he was about to dodge, the coldness suddenly flashed and directly appeared inside his lower abdomen. Then, with a poof, it exploded. Half of his body silently melted into a large amount of blood.
"You!!" He turned his head to look behind him. A white-haired old man was holding a walking stick and looking at Nuwa with a calm expression. He didn't even look at him.
"What? You want revenge? I am the Nether River Patriarch. If you want revenge, come to the Netherworld. " The old man said casually. However, he was surprised that Lu Sheng was able to persist for so long, so he added another sentence.
"I …" Lu Sheng couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his face pale.
"What about you? Begging for mercy? Or are you trying to get a backer to scare me? " Minghe laughed. "Life and death are predetermined. The world rotates, the sun and the moon change, and the ancestor kills. These are all predetermined. My Netherworld River is a part of nature, a part of fate. Going against the ancestor is going against fate! "
"I …!" Lu Sheng spat out another mouthful of blood.
"Pitiful junior. This is the law of the jungle. It's the nature of nature." Minghe's calm gaze landed on Nuwa in the distance again.
"You're lucky to be able to witness such a grand event. You're lucky. Rejoice. The gathering of several sages will bring about unprecedented changes to the world … You can witness all of this before you die. Even if you die, it's enough to celebrate … "
Puchi!!
Minghe's eyes suddenly widened. His lips trembled as he slowly lowered his head in disbelief. He looked at the dark red arm that pierced through his chest.
"I … I'm not f * cking dead yet!!" Lu Sheng finally spat out. He grabbed Minghe's neck with lightning speed and tore it apart. The massive Vermilion Bird Divine Fire burned Minghe's head black in an instant. Then, he tore it off.
The scarlet-white flames were like a virus that quickly burned the remaining parts of Minghe's body into ashes.
Lu Sheng's smashed lower body quickly burned with white flames. In the blink of an eye, the flames dissipated, and his body returned to normal.
"Minghe? Very good! " Lu Sheng felt that the Vermilion Bird Sacred Body had lost at least one-tenth of its Vermilion Bird Divine Fire in that instant. Under normal circumstances, the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire produced by his Nanming Longevity Record, which had reached the 71st Transformation, would not have consumed so much energy even if he used it at full power for ten days and nights.
The true energy consumption was used to reconstruct his body.
The greatest strength of the Nanming Longevity Record, apart from prolonging one's lifespan, was that one could use one's body to transform into flames at any time to heal all injuries.
As long as the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire existed, he would not die.
At that moment, a ball of bloody light appeared out of nowhere on the ground outside the cave. It twisted and took shape, quickly transforming into the appearance of Minghe Patriarch.
"I was careless … Very good … Junior, you can actually break through the poison and corrosion of my Great Blood River Technique … and hurt me … That's commendable." Minghe's eyes were sinister. He cultivated the Great Blood River Technique, the most powerful of which was known as the Immortal Blood God Body. In addition, his body was a boundless sea of blood. As long as the sea of blood did not dry up, he would not die.
What he had just lost was just an avatar.
What embarrassed him was that this junior, Lu Sheng, had so easily destroyed one of his avatars.
Bam!
The ground suddenly exploded, sending rocks and mud flying. A ball of fire flew out and turned into Lu Sheng's figure.
He stared at Minghe with an equally cold expression.
"Very good. I, Lu Sheng, have lived for so many years, but this is the first time I've been ambushed for no reason … Lowly native, you've successfully angered me …"
"Huh?" Minghe's expression darkened. In this world, aside from the Saints, he, Minghe, had never been afraid of anyone! How dare this junior speak such nonsense!?
Lu Sheng's eyes sharpened. He had roamed the realms, slaughtered billions, swallowed stars and devoured moons, and was omnipotent. How dare a mere native from a small world swagger in front of him after ambushing him? Had his teeth not been good lately, or did this random guy from this world not know the immensity of heaven and earth?
The two of them looked at each other and saw a trace of killing intent and contempt in each other's eyes.
Minghe? That's right, this guy called himself Minghe. In that case …
Lu Sheng suddenly thought of a person in the Untainted Land. The one who dared to watch the Saints mend the Heavens at this time might really be that Minghe.
However, it didn't matter. No matter which Minghe he was, there was only one ending for anyone who provoked Lu Sheng.
The dark red lines on Lu Sheng's face became brighter and brighter.
Chi!
A blazing white flame, tens of meters high, gradually burned behind him. A vague outline of Behemoth flashed in the flame.
Minghe laughed sharply, and his body began to ripple and twist like water. Blood-red halos appeared around him, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.
A strangely shaped, dark red, ancient, and exquisite longsword slowly appeared in the air beside him and was grasped in his hand.
"Be glad that you can become a soul stored in the Avici Sword. The Ancestor will turn your Primordial Spirit into food for the Great Asura … You will never be reincarnated! Hahahaha!! "
"Do you think that I can't do anything to your trash Blood Sea?" Blazing white flames began to appear faintly on Lu Sheng's skin. He had long wanted to test the level of a Sage-to-be. Since Minghe was courting death, he couldn't be blamed!
When the Avici Sword appeared, the surroundings suddenly rippled with a terrifying, sharp, and cold murderous intent. However, when this murderous intent neared Lu Sheng, it was distorted and swallowed by some strange and greedy powerful force field.
Other than Lu Sheng's Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, there seemed to be some kind of inexplicably powerful magical power. However, when the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire wanted to spread and burn, it was blocked by this murderous intent.
The two of them confronted each other, and the force field aura emitted from their bodies suppressed each other. Both of them had their wins and losses, and they were evenly matched for a short period of time.
On the other side, Fuxi and the few Sages retreated after giving their assistance.
Only Saint Nuwa was left to continue refining the Seven-Colored Stone.
Mending the Heavens wouldn't be effective in a short period of time, and it would take a long time for the Seven-Colored Stone to melt.
They also saw the conflict between Minghe and Lu Sheng. However, to the Sages, they themselves represented the highest level of privilege in this universe. In their eyes, those who weren't Sages were just ants. They could be destroyed at any time.
The Sages had a Sage Position, and this Sage Position had several ways to prove one's Dao. Having a Sage Position meant that one could control the basic rules of this universe to a certain extent. At the same time, one wouldn't enter the Three Realms, and would be supreme and indestructible.
This was a privilege given by the universe. Therefore, those who didn't become Sages were ants.
There were several different ways to obtain this privilege.
The first was to prove one's Dao with strength. This was a Sage whose strength was so strong that even the universe could only recruit them. Giving them the ability to control the rules was also to appease them. Simply put, it was to beat the universe into fear, and thus obtain a special existence.
The second was to prove one's Dao by cutting off the Three Corpses and Nine Worms. It was to cut off all connections between oneself and the universe, so that one could jump out of the rules of cause and effect, and become independent and detached from the world. In order to bring such existences back into its system and prevent them from causing trouble, the universe gave them a Sage Position as compensation.
The third was to prove one's Dao with merit. This referred to those who had made great contributions to the universe, and thus obtained the highest reward of the universe, becoming a Sage with merit. This could be considered as the universe itself, a direct privileged class cultivated by Miao Hong.
Therefore, when Mount Buzhou collapsed, the Milky Way poured down. As a direct descendant of the universe, Goddess Nuwa was the first to go there, and made great efforts to mend the sky.
The last was to make a Grand Vow to prove one's Dao.
This was the standard way of giving the universe an empty promise, saying that one could help the universe perfect the big flaws and loopholes, and after showing enough ability and the possibility of achieving it.
It was possible to obtain the universe's reward, and obtain the reward in advance, which was the Sage Position.
Of course, the premise of this was that the Grand Vow had to be of great help to the universe, and there was an urgent need for it. At the same time, one had the possibility of accomplishing the Grand Vow. Moreover, once the Grand Vow was made, all actions had to be carried out around it, or else one would fall to the mundane world and lose the universe's favor.
After all, the universe gave the Sage Position in advance, also so that the Grand Vow could achieve his goal faster. Moreover, this fourth type was more opportunistic, and before the Grand Vow was completed, the authority obtained would ultimately be slightly inferior to the previous three types.
Nuwa was neither sad nor happy. She was very clear about what she wanted to do. This was her mission, and in today's world, she was the most suitable person.
However, before that, she looked with some surprise at the two little fellows who were confronting each other not far away.
