Chapter 40 Forming Allies, Holding Nuwa's Hand

Nuwa changed her way of addressing Yin Zicheng from calling him by his name to calling him Fellow Daoist Zicheng.

This means that Goddess Nuwa has acknowledged Yin Zicheng, who is at the Great Luo realm and a generation below her, as an existence of equal caliber.

Yin Zicheng noticed the change in how Nuwa was addressed, smiled, and said:

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, I would like to discuss with you the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods."

Let's talk about the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods?

Yes, the Jie Sect and his Shang Dynasty were the first to be affected in the Investiture of the Gods. Does he want to bring me into the fold as an ally?

However, if he has any requests of me, he should personally visit me at the Nuwa Palace to discuss them.

He summoned me so rudely; it's hardly the act of asking for a favor.

......

Nuwa, the goddess, thought for a moment and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zicheng, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods originated from the Heavenly Court. The three sects of Humanity, Chan, and Jie jointly signed the Investiture of the Gods, which caused calamity in the human world."

"I reside outside the primordial world, and none of my disciples travel there. This matter has nothing to do with me, does it?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Zicheng immediately laughed:

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, you don't need to pretend you don't know."

"The reason why my descendants wrote blasphemous poems in Nuwa Palace was because Zhunti, under the instruction of the old man Hongjun, bewitched Emperor Xin and caused this."

"Of course, the matter of writing a poem only damages your dignity, and doesn't have much impact on you... However, have you ever thought carefully about why Zhunti insisted on making Emperor Xin write a poem when you clearly have nothing to do with the Investiture of the Gods?"

Nuwa was taken aback.

Exactly! Why would Zhunti do that, prompting him to attack Di Xin?

It's just a human dynasty. If they want to overthrow it, there are a thousand ways to do so. Why do they have to drag themselves into it?

There must be some secrets within this that I haven't yet figured out!

......

Although the goddess Nuwa was intelligent, she was caught up in the situation and could not see through it.

She thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out no matter what, so she simply stopped thinking about it and looked at Yin Zicheng, asking:

"Fellow Daoist Zicheng, I cannot understand this. Do you know the answer?"

Yin Zicheng had been waiting for this question from the Goddess Nuwa.

“Fellow Daoist Nuwa, this matter cannot be explained in a few words. Let me show you something first. After you see it, you should understand.”

Yin Zicheng did not directly tell Nuwa the answer, but instead waved to her.

"Buzz..."

The supreme divine will enveloped Nuwa, allowing her to see the trajectory of the Investiture of the Gods without Yin Zicheng's involvement.

The Human Emperor was demoted to the Son of Heaven, and placed below the Heavenly Emperor, further suppressing humanity.

The Three Pure Ones broke apart, and the Tongtian Sect Leader fought a great battle with Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Jieyin Daoren, and Zhunti Daoren, which shattered the prehistoric world.

The Grandmaster Hongjun rebuilt the primordial world and forbade saints from descending to the mortal realm.

I understand!

In this great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, I have once again been outmaneuvered by that old man Hongjun!

After seeing the trajectory of the Investiture of the Gods shown to her by Yin Zicheng, Goddess Nuwa suddenly understood.

When Nuwa understood the situation, she almost couldn't help but curse.

Hongjun, that old bastard, has tricked her time and time again; he's utterly unworthy of being a teacher!

......

At first glance, the most tragic figures in the Investiture of the Gods seem to be the Jie Sect and the Tongtian Sect Master.

However, Nuwa herself suffered a similar fate.

First, she attained sainthood through the merit of creating humankind, becoming the Holy Mother of Humanity and enjoying the fortune of humankind.

During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, the Human Emperor was demoted to the Son of Heaven, humanity was suppressed, and the human race suffered. Naturally, Nuwa, the Holy Mother of Humanity, also suffered as a result.

Moreover, the suppression of humanity to this extent has essentially blocked her path of abandoning the Way of Heaven and becoming a saint of humanity.

More importantly, the reason why the Human Emperor was able to be dethroned and become the Son of Heaven was largely due to the fact that the Goddess Nuwa sent three demons to wreak havoc on the Shang Dynasty!

She was schemed against and ended up digging her own grave? That's outrageous!

Secondly, when the Heavenly Pillar broke during the Great Calamity of the Lich King and the Primordial World suffered a great calamity, the Goddess Nuwa performed the act of mending the sky.

Since then, as the number of primordial creatures increased and their prosperity grew, they consistently brought benefits to the Goddess Nuwa.

This guy shattered the primordial world, rendering Nuwa's achievement of mending the sky utterly useless.

Moreover, as a Heavenly Saint who cultivates the Way of Creation and is deeply connected with the Primordial World, he cannot even go to the Primordial World and can only stay in the desolate chaos.

It's practically impossible for the Goddess Nuwa to advance any further in the future!

......

For those who cultivate the Tao, cutting off someone's path is a grudge that can never be resolved.

The fact that Nuwa was able to control herself and not curse directly shows that she has great manners.

"That old bastard Hongjun, he schemed against me so badly!"

"I absolutely cannot let Hongjun's conspiracy succeed, otherwise, my path forward will be almost cut off. Not to mention the Great Dao, even the Heavenly Dao will be an unattainable thing!"

"However, with my own strength alone, I am no match for Hongjun..."

Nuwa thought for a moment, then looked at Yin Zicheng: "Only by joining forces with him can we possibly stop Hongjun's conspiracy!"

"His talent is heaven-defying. He has formed the Supreme Dao Flower, which allows him to break through the veil of the Heavenly Dao and glimpse the future of the Great Tribulation that even saints cannot see. Moreover, he is at the Great Luo Realm, and his strength is no less than mine!"

"Moreover, he is Tongtian's beloved disciple. Joining forces with him is equivalent to joining forces with Tongtian."

"I believe that with the combined strength of myself, Tongtian, and him, we can surely stop Hongjun's conspiracy and avoid ending up in such a predicament!"
