Chapter 480 - 479: How Could a Saint Not Have a Back-Up Plan? This Is the Map of Mountains and Rivers!
"The person in this painting is actually the legendary Saint Nuwa..."
At this moment, Lin Heng’s eyelids twitched wildly, his heart overwhelmed with shock.
In the past, when he viewed the woman in the painting, he only felt a kind of inviolable beauty with nothing unusual.
But now, as a snake tail emerged from under her skirt,
he was startled to realize how similar she was to the images of Nuwa displayed among the people.
Now, the Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts directly revealed the identity of the person in the painting.
Everyone present was naturally engulfed in a storm of upheaval in their hearts!
At that moment,
the world around them suddenly trembled, countless mysterious lights brightened upon the sky.
Everyone looked up in surprise, then exclaimed: "It’s the opportunity from outside, it came directly in!"
The flickering above the sky was not starlight.
But the Power of Merit and Qi of Creation that had the Quasi-Saints fighting fiercely.
They bypassed the Donghuang Bell and Nether Lord Banner, entering directly into this world within the painting.
It was at this time,
that the image of Nuwa emitted a brilliant light, enveloping Nie Xiaoqian, and ascended to the heavens with her.
"No, what is this going to do?"
Nie Xiaoqian struggled in panic, to no avail, she quickly looked at Lin Heng: "Little Daoist, save me!!"
Without a word, Lin Heng shot into the sky.
However, being in a weakened state, he could not even get close to Nie Xiaoqian before being suppressed by the divine power within the painting.
The divine power bore no malice, only forcing him back.
But even so, it caused Lin Heng to cough up blood.
"Are you alright?" Nie Xiaoqian, already risen to the sky, shouted loudly, full of worry.
"I’m fine!" Lin Heng shouted in response.
At this timely moment,
the sky was filled with merit and creation, encompassing Nie Xiaoqian.
She looked astonished, somewhat at a loss.
Those below, however, were utterly shocked.
"The opportunity left by Lady Nuwa is actually obtained by Miss Xiaoqian?" Bai Suzhen and Cyan Snake both found it incomprehensible.
"Who would have thought, something that a group of Quasi-Saints fought to the death for, would end up in the hands of a little Profound Immortal? It’s really unexpected..." Long-armed Ape muttered in wonder.
"Perhaps, from the beginning, this opportunity was meant for her." The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts seemed to understand something.
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
She murmured: "Everyone guessed wrong, the return of Nuwa doesn’t require our unity, it only needed her appearance."
"Our role, perhaps, is just to guide the arrival of the sealed opportunity..."
These words brought about strange expressions among the crowd, and Long-armed Ape couldn’t help but interject: "If that were the case, what if she hadn’t come today? If you guide the opportunity down, wouldn’t it just become a bridal dress for others?"
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts said firmly: "She will definitely come. The strategy of the Saints traverses through time itself, for whatever reason, she is bound to come here today."
Her tone was filled with utmost certainty.
Lost in thought, Lin Heng looked towards Nie Xiaoqian in the sky and said: "You’re right, before setting out for this journey, she had a nightmare about this place in the painting."
"Even though she didn’t know what would happen here in her dream, she knew that my chance of survival was slim, so she came..."
Hearing this, Long-armed Ape couldn’t help but frown: "So, everything was already calculated by Lady Nuwa?"
"But who is she really? Why would Lady Nuwa send the opportunity to her?" Long-armed Ape was puzzled.
"No, it’s not sent to her." The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts shook her head, her eyes fixed intently on Nie Xiaoqian enveloped by the opportunity in the sky, and said solemnly: "It’s sent to herself."
"She is Lady Nuwa!"
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts spoke with gravity.
"What?"
Upon hearing these words, everyone was in utter shock.
Especially Lin Heng.
When he first met Nie Xiaoqian in the Human World, she was just a ghost girl hiding from the Tree Demon Granny all day, and now the Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts claimed that Nie Xiaoqian was actually the reincarnation of Nuwa?
This was nothing short of mind-blowing...
Long-armed Ape said: "This is too unbelievable, the reincarnation of Lady Nuwa, with only a mere Profound Immortal Cultivation, if something goes wrong, wouldn’t Nuwa never be able to return?"
He didn’t underestimate Nie Xiaoqian.
But a Profound Immortal is indeed too weak in the Grand Thousand Upper Realm.
Not to mention faraway instances,
even within the Demonic Realm, in the aftershocks of the Quasi-Saints’ battles, at least tens of thousands of Profound Immortal demonic creatures were dead.
With such cultivation, in times of great competition, they are hardly any different from ants.
"That’s why she has this painting to protect herself."
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts squinted slightly, looking around and said: "If I’m not mistaken, this painting should be the legendary Map of Mountains and Rivers!"
"Map of Mountains and Rivers?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was momentarily thoughtful before finally realizing the belated shock.
...
Meanwhile, in the Demonic Realm,
accompanied by the vast merit and creation, all disappearing into a void.
Both the Demon Ancestor and Ksitigarbha could no longer remain still.
"Who is it?"
"Who is seizing the opportunity?"
Both were extremely furious.
One shook the Nether Lord Banner.
The other sounded the Donghuang Bell.
Two Extreme Sacred Weapons both bombarded the void, not only to force out the hidden entity but also to intercept Nuwa’s opportunity.
Under the terrifying might of the sacred weapons,
that void finally rippled, and something appeared.
"What is it really?"
Princess Iron Fan, Great Ming King, Diting, Six Ears.
Even some creatures of the Demon Race all held their breaths, staring intently there.
Under countless gazes,
a landscape painting gradually unfolded in that void.
On the scroll, all things thrived, the spring scene was vibrant, the rivers and seas were vast, the mountains and rivers magnificent.
There, a world was painted.
At the same time, the pressure of the Extreme Sacred Weapon erupted from the painting.
While sweeping through the Demonic Realm,
it also shook the entire Grand Thousand Upper Realm.
"No... what exactly is happening in the Outer Demon Land?"
"There’s yet another aura of an Extreme Sacred Weapon?"
"What’s really happening?"
Baffled.
The Quasi-Saints of the Five Great Immortal Realms were bewildered.
In one day,
the aura of three Extreme Sacred Weapons appeared consecutively; it was incredibly shocking.
It made people wonder if they had returned to the Quantitative Calamity Era?
Or perhaps, the Saint opportunity had quietly arrived?
But this shouldn’t be the case.
Whether it’s the Heavenly Dao’s quantitative calamity or the arrival of a Saint opportunity, Quasi-Saints should sense it immediately.
But if it’s not these two major events,
what could warrant the appearance of three Extreme Sacred Weapons one after another?
Just for a highly risky Nuwa opportunity with a small chance of success?
That would be pushing it too far...
The Grand Thousand Upper Realm was filled with confusion.
Meanwhile, in the Demonic Realm,
everyone was now utterly stupefied.
"The Map of Mountains and Rivers... is actually Nuwa’s Map of Mountains and Rivers?"
"Is this the backup plan Nuwa left for herself?"
The Demon Ancestor and Ksitigarbha’s faces were ashen, shocked by Nuwa’s methods, yet also filled with a sense of being played with anger.
