Chapter 64 The Emperor Proves His Dao

Never mind the saints, Xuan Du was already at the Cheng Ji tribe!

Looking at the young Fu Xi, Xuan Du forced a smile. He had been captured just now, which was quite embarrassing!

Seeing Fu Xi still looking at him, Xuan Du said, "I am Xuan Du, the chief disciple of Saint Tai Qing. Fu Xi, would you be willing to take me as your master?"

"Great Master Xuan Du, I know you. You have given many tribes elixirs and saved countless lives. You deserve Fu Xi's bow!" young Fu Xi immediately said!

Over the years, Xuan Du had gained quite a reputation among the human tribes with his alchemy skills. Many humans even called him Great Master Xuan Du for his ability to refine elixirs and save lives!

Xuan Du nodded, and then Fu Xi bowed to Xuan Du as his master!

Xuan Du also passed on the Tai Qing Immortal Method to Fu Xi. However, Fu Xi needed to achieve enlightenment, not through cultivation, but through great merit!

After Xuan Du took Fu Xi as his disciple, Tai Qing Lao Zi had a premonition. He pondered for a moment and then headed towards the North Sea!

Outside the North Sea, Tai Qing Lao Zi merely flicked his finger. The sea water churned, and Kun Peng flew out of the North Sea. Upon seeing Tai Qing Lao Zi, he immediately said, "Greetings, Saint!"

There was no choice. The Three Pure Ones were at the zenith of their power, especially Tai Qing Lao Zi, who had just defeated Ming He, Zhun Ti, and Jie Yin with his formidable combat strength. Kun Peng dared not overstep!

"Kun Peng, the Hetu and Luoshu are the items for Fu Xi to prove his enlightenment. Hand them over!" Tai Qing Lao Zi was too lazy to waste words and directly demanded the Hetu and Luoshu!

Kun Peng's expression turned grim. He had originally taken these two top-grade spiritual treasures to protect himself. Since Nu Wa had not pursued him, Kun Peng had felt reassured!

However, he never expected Tai Qing Lao Zi to come and demand them.

Upon hearing that they were items for Fu Xi's enlightenment, Kun Peng truly dared not keep them. There were not many powerful figures left in the demon race, which was the main reason Kun Peng dared to keep these two spiritual treasures. He reasoned that Nu Wa would not pursue him, and if she still troubled him given the state of the demon race, then the demon race would be truly finished!

But when it came to Fu Xi, Kun Peng did not dare. If Nu Wa had to choose between him and Fu Xi, anyone with sense would know the outcome!

Therefore, Kun Peng could only fume inwardly and offer the two top-grade innate spiritual treasures!

Tai Qing Lao Zi beckoned, took the Hetu and Luoshu, and flew away!

Kun Peng could only curse inwardly, not daring to make any other move!

When Tai Qing Lao Zi flew over the Cheng Ji tribe, he tossed them down. The Hetu and Luoshu transformed into streaks of light and appeared before Xuan Du!

Seeing these two innate spiritual treasures, Xuan Du knew they were likely Fu Xi's enlightenment items. He immediately summoned Fu Xi and gave him these two innate spiritual treasures!

Upon receiving the Hetu and Luoshu, Fu Xi quickly comprehended the formations within them!

By this time, Fu Xi had grown up. Because of Fu Xi, the Cheng Ji tribe developed and grew rapidly. No one starved to death anymore, and it gradually became the largest tribe in the vicinity. The tribal chief, grateful for Fu Xi's divine abilities, crowned Fu Xi as the chief!

After Fu Xi became the chief, Xuan Du also diligently assisted him, ensuring that the people of Fu Xi's tribe no longer died from illness!

As the Cheng Ji tribe grew larger, nearby tribes began to pledge allegiance. After all, following the Cheng Ji tribe meant having meat to eat. Fu Xi had invented various hunting and fishing methods!

With the Hetu and Luoshu, Fu Xi spent several years deducing and finally formulated the innate Bagua. He brought the path of deduction to the human race, allowing them to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune. Because of this, nearby tribes flocked to join them. Eventually, Fu Xi was also elected as the co-ruler of the human race for his immense contributions!

Fu Xi, possessing divine and sage-like virtue, united the various tribes and established his capital in Chen Di, performing the Feng Shan ceremony at Mount Tai. Fu Xi took out the totems of the various tribes, combining the body of a python, the head of a crocodile, the antlers of a deer, the eyes of a fierce tiger, the scales of a red carp, the legs of a giant lizard, the claws of an eagle, the tail of a white shark, and the whiskers of a whale, to create the human totem: the dragon!

Thus, while Fu Xi reigned, he observed the clouds in the sky, the rain and snow, the thunder and lightning, the strong winds and dense fog on the ground, and the behavior of birds and beasts. Based on the principles of yin and yang changes in heaven and earth, he created the Bagua, using eight simple yet profound symbols to encompass all things in heaven and earth. He imitated the way spiders spun webs to create nets for fishing and hunting. He also created written characters to replace the method of tying knots in ropes for recording information.

Fu Xi established the human marriage system, implementing monogamy and using deerskin as a betrothal gift. He also derived surnames from the animals they raised, or from plants, residences, or official positions, to prevent incest and close-relative marriages!

It can be said that Fu Xi was revered by the human race as a sage. His contributions were immense, enabling the human race to develop and prosper healthily.

In summary, Fu Xi created the Bagua, laying the foundation for human culture! This is because the Bagua contained the ideology of "harmony between heaven and man"!

Secondly, he taught the human race how to hunt, fish, and raise wild animals, thus improving human productivity and marking the origin of livestock!

Thirdly, he reformed marriage and established human matrimony! This transformed tribal bloodline marriages into human marriages, ending the long-standing state where children only knew their mothers but not their fathers!

Fourthly, he created the initial written language!

Fifthly, he invented clay pots and musical instruments like the qin and se, bringing joy and pleasure to human life!

Sixthly, he divided his territory for governance and appointed officials for social management, providing a model for future societal governance!

Thus, with these achievements, Fu Xi's merit was perfected. The Heavenly Dao specially bestowed abundant merit and recognized Fu Xi's status as the Heavenly Emperor! Fu Xi's cultivation also directly reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm, making him immortal and granting him the reverence of the human race!

After Fu Xi's merit was perfected, he directly ascended to Fire Cloud Cave to assist the Three Ancestors of the Human Race in suppressing the destiny of the human race!

Xuan Du, for his meritorious assistance, was also generously rewarded by the Heavenly Dao with abundant merit. Xuan Du used this merit to cultivate, surpassing the Golden Immortal realm and entering the Taiyi True Immortal realm!

This endeavor was also considered a complete success in terms of merit!

As Xuan Du returned to Shouyang Mountain, Tai Qing Lao Zi nodded. Xuan Du had performed well and had now entered the Taiyi realm. More importantly, with the title of "Teacher of the Heavenly Emperor," he could enjoy the destiny of the human race, which would make his future cultivation efforts twice as effective. He could even use this destiny to break through to the Da Luo realm and enter the Quasi-Saint realm!

The matter of the Heavenly Emperor concluded thus. Nu Wa, in Wa Huang Tian, also watched, knowing that her brother had achieved his merit and felt relieved. Even though Fu Xi was no longer a demon and had become human, he was still Fu Xi, and it was a good outcome for him!
