Chapter 26 The Secret of the Great Dao, Nuwa Desires to Travel with Companions
Time flies, and I don't know how many years have passed.
In the primordial world, years are not recorded. For a Great Luo Golden Immortal, it is common for a single discussion of the Dao to take several eons.
The discourse on the Dao eventually ceased.
The strange phenomena in the sky slowly dissipated, and Tianlu opened his golden eyes, a hint of doubt rising in his heart.
Through this discussion, he clearly perceived that both Nuwa's laws of creation and Fuxi's laws of cause and effect had reached an extremely profound level, with an incredibly solid foundation.
These two are clearly innate saints who have genuinely cultivated the laws of the Great Dao, and their talents are unparalleled.
However, in their original future trajectory, they both abandoned the pursuit of the Great Dao Laws and instead cultivated the Three-Foot Cleaver technique passed down by Hongjun.
Strange, truly strange.
Just as Tianlu was pondering this, Nuwa awoke from her enlightenment.
The moment Nuwa opened her eyes, her gaze was filled with shock as she looked at Tianlu and spoke.
"Brother Tianlu, your foundation of destiny far surpasses mine."
"Since I took human form, I have been cultivating diligently day and night, always wanting to comprehend the higher realm of the Way of Creation, but I have been unable to make any further progress, as if I were trapped by an invisible shackle."
"I wonder how you, brother, have come to comprehend such profound principles of creation over the years?"
Fuxi, who was standing to the side, also awoke from his enlightenment. He stroked his long beard, his brows furrowed slightly, and echoed his words.
"To be honest, ever since the great battle between the Dao and the Demon ended, my sister and I have been in seclusion in Phoenix Perch Mountain."
"No matter how we deduce it, we have never been able to advance further at the level of the Great Dao."
"This feeling is so strange, it's as if the road ahead has suddenly ended."
"Brother Dao, we cultivate the Great Dao together and are both at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Brother Dao has profound knowledge; do you know the reason behind it?"
Upon hearing the two's complaints, Tianlu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his doubts were instantly resolved.
He now fully understood why these two top-tier innate saints would switch to cultivating the Three Corpses Path in the future.
It's not that they lack comprehension, but rather that this primordial world no longer allows them to cultivate.
After the initial calamity of the Dragon and Han dynasties and the war between the Dao and the Demon, the Great Dao retreated into seclusion, and the Heavenly Dao emerged to take control of the primordial world.
When the Great Dao retreats into seclusion, its laws naturally cease to manifest in the world.
Under the primordial chaos shrouded by the laws of Heaven, attempting to continue comprehending the obscure laws of the Great Dao to break through to the Primordial Golden Immortal realm is harder than ascending to heaven; it's practically a dead end.
Then, Tianlu slowly explained the reason.
"Fellow Daoists, it is not that you are dull-witted, but that the great trend of the world has changed."
"Since the war between the Dao and the Demon, the Great Dao has retreated into seclusion, and the Heavenly Dao is about to emerge and flourish."
"Those three thousand Great Dao Laws have already been hidden deep within the chaos, not appearing in the primordial world."
"In its place are the rules of Heaven, woven by the Way of Heaven."
"Under the suppression of the Heavenly Dao rules, it is extremely difficult to break through to the realm above the Great Luo Golden Immortal by comprehending the laws of the Great Dao, just as it was at the beginning of creation."
"The path ahead is obscured by the will of Heaven, so naturally we cannot go any further."
When Nuwa and Fuxi learned of this great secret of heaven and earth, they were shocked and sighed in unison.
"I never expected it to be for this reason."
"The Great Dao has retreated, and the Laws are no longer manifest—it seems that we must seek another path to break free from the shackles of this Great Luo Realm."
.
Fuxi shook his head helplessly, his tone full of dejection.
Nuwa's expression also darkened; the blow of having her path cut off was undoubtedly a great blow to those seeking the Dao.
Seeing the two looking so worried, Tianlu didn't feel so sad himself.
After all, his situation is completely different. He is the auspicious beast Maoxiu, a true darling of the Great Dao, the son of the Great Dao.
Even though the Great Dao has retired and no longer cares about the troubles of the primordial world, it still secretly gives special treatment to its own son.
Now that the discussion has ended, Tianlu has not only witnessed the Daoist teachings of the future sage and the emperor, but has also formed a significant bond of good karma with them.
With the cause and effect resolved, his greedy and treasure-devouring nature began to stir again, and he wanted to continue searching for treasure on Mount Buzhou.
This Buzhou Mountain was formed from the spine of Pangu. Even though it has been shielded from many opportunities by the Heavenly Dao, who is Tianlu?
He is an auspicious beast that controls wealth and fortune.
Even if he has to dig three feet into the ground, he will dig out the treasure of Buzhou Mountain.
Tianlu stood up from the golden clouds and explained his purpose.
"My two fellow Daoists, I have also benefited greatly from today's discussion on the Dao."
"However, I have always enjoyed traveling through the primordial wilderness in search of rare and precious things."
"Now that the discussion has come to an end, I intend to continue wandering around Mount Buzhou, digging three feet into the ground, to see if I can find a few more opportunities. Farewell."
When Nuwa heard that Tianlu was leaving, she felt a pang of reluctance and quickly tried to persuade him to stay.
"Brother, wait a moment. Although Mount Buzhou is vast and rich in resources, it is still fraught with danger."
"Brother Dao, aren't you afraid of the lingering power of the Qilin, the beast race, as you embark on this treasure hunt with such fanfare?"
"Although after the war between the three races, the dragon, phoenix and qilin races were all extremely impoverished and withdrew from the stage of the prehistoric overlords."
"But even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Surely the beast lineage doesn't lack even a Great Luo Golden Immortal level expert? If we provoke those reclusive old monsters, trouble might ensue."
Upon hearing Nuwa's concerns, Tianlu was immediately amused and couldn't help but chuckle.
He then began to recount the situation after the war between the three races.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, you have been living in seclusion on Phoenix Perch Mountain for a long time, but you are unaware that the outside world has already changed."
"During the initial calamity of the Dragon-Han War, the three races slaughtered each other, causing rivers of blood to flow across the primordial land, and countless earth veins to collapse, resulting in extremely heavy karma."
"Now, the Qilin of the beast lineage, the Yuanfeng of the bird lineage, and the Zulong of the scaled lineage have all died and vanished, transforming into the origin of heaven and earth to atone for their boundless sins."
"As for those once majestic Golden Immortals among the three races, they were all wiped out in that great calamity, with only one in ten surviving."

"As for the Primordial Golden Immortals, who were high above and had touched the very essence of the laws, they were envied by the heavens and were almost all wiped out!"
Tianlu stroked his golden chin, the golden scales shimmering with the light of the laws of fortune, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"Even if we take a step back and assume that there really is a Grand Luo Golden Immortal among the beast race who has miraculously survived, they are now tightly bound by the karmic force of the Heavenly Dao and can hardly protect themselves."
"They're too busy hiding in the corners of the world, barely clinging to life, suppressing their karmic fire; how could they dare to come out and get involved in cause and effect?"
Upon hearing this, Fuxi nodded slightly, a look of realization dawning on his face.
"So the situation outside has become like this. No wonder we did not detect any fluctuations in the aura of the powerful beings of the three races during our long period of seclusion. The primordial world has withered to this extent."
Upon hearing this, Nuwa's worries vanished instantly.
However, upon learning of the situation in the prehistoric world, Nuwa smiled gently and parted her red lips slightly.
"Since that's the case, Brother Dao, if you wish to seek opportunities at Buzhou Mountain, why not travel with my siblings and me?"
"Mount Buzhou is vast and boundless. Although the powerful beings of the three races have retreated, the innate formations and unknown dangers nurtured by heaven and earth should not be underestimated. It is good for us to travel together and look out for each other."
