Chapter 481 - 480: Nuwa Returns, Extreme Quasi-Saint! [First Update]
Over these years.
The various factions divined the secrets of the heavens, all affirming that Nuwa’s arrangement involved five descendants.
Once they meet, Nuwa can reappear in the world.
The opportunity she left before her transformation will also manifest at that time.
To seize this opportunity,
the various quasi-saints have tried every conceivable method.
Ultimately, it was concluded that only by entering the outer demon land, which is free from the Three Realms and Five Elements, does one have a chance to intercept the Sage’s opportunity!
Unlike Golden Cicada, Great Ming King, and others who thought merely entering the outer demon land would allow participation in this struggle,
the Demon Ancestor and Ksitigarbha knew better.
The Sage’s opportunity.
One must possess a sage’s artifact to seize it!
Therefore, they secretly brought the Primordial Nether Lord Banner and the Donghuang Bell!
However, with the appearance of the Map of Mountains and Rivers,
they realized the extent of the sage’s far-reaching plan.
Nuwa had long anticipated this day and prepared a countermeasure.
"It seems our long scheming will ultimately end in vain..."
Ksitigarbha’s tone was complex, his gaze fixed on the Map of Mountains and Rivers, which shrouded the heavens like a curtain, blocking all the heavenly radiance.
"Damn it, damn it!!"
The Demon Ancestor’s face was full of unwillingness.
He activated the Donghuang Bell, its ancient sound transcending the eight desolations, crushing the heavens and earth, attempting to forcibly share the heavenly bounty with the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
But it was destined to be futile.
Though the Donghuang Bell’s fame is not beneath the Map of Mountains and Rivers, and even in terms of the power of slaughter, it firmly wins over the latter.
Yet, after all, it belongs to Nuwa.
And the heavenly opportunity was left by Nuwa.
Even if the Donghuang Bell contends, the heavenly opportunity flows earnestly towards the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
The Demon Ancestor tried to obstruct.
But the Map of Mountains and Rivers, although not as lethal as the Donghuang Bell, has achieved the ultimate in the Law of Space.
It continuously transforms, distorting space, always perfectly avoiding the Donghuang Bell’s might, consuming the heavenly radiance bit by bit.
Though the Demon Ancestor and Ksitigarbha were full of unwillingness, they were helpless and could only watch all this unfold with open eyes.
...
Meanwhile, inside the Map of Mountains and Rivers,
as more and more light rain enveloped her, Nie Xiaoqian’s figure gradually became blurred, while the portrait of Nuwa in her hand magically became clearer.
The sky was filled with dazzling, blinding light rain.
It made it somewhat hard to see there.
One could only feel that Nie Xiaoqian and the portrait of Nuwa seemed to be gradually merging.
"Miss Xiaoqian, how...how do you feel?" Lin Heng tentatively called out loudly.
Unfortunately, from beginning to end, not a single response was received.
"Is Miss Xiaoqian going to disappear?" Lin Heng realized what was going to happen, his heart momentarily filled with mixed emotions.
"It’s merely a return to her true identity, which is a good thing for her." The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts was composed.
"So, will she remember us?" Lin Heng asked.
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts did not answer.
Lin Heng’s expression grew complex.
From the Human World to the Grand Thousand Upper Realm, all along the way, he had received Nie Xiaoqian’s help many times.
Nie Xiaoqian getting the Sage’s opportunity made him genuinely happy for her.
Yet, thinking that from now on there would be no more Nie Xiaoqian, only the legendary Lady Nuwa.
Lin Heng couldn’t help but feel mixed emotions in his heart.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The world within the scroll suddenly began to tremble.
With the same frequency as a heartbeat.
Under the sky full of light rain, Nie Xiaoqian and Nuwa’s portrait truly fused together.
She stood atop the heavens, her eyes tightly shut, a pure white dress making one dare not harbor any desecrating thoughts.
Her whole body was emitting radiant light.
Her aura was rising at an incredibly astonishing speed.
Profound Immortal.
Celestial Immortal.
Immortal King.
Immortal Emperor.
Ancestral Immortal.
Almost in an instant, Nie Xiaoqian’s momentum soared from an ant-like existence in the eyes of the Long-armed Ape to a level that even made him apprehensive.
Yet this was not the end.
Accompanied by the tremors of heaven and earth.
A golden avenue appeared beneath Nie Xiaoqian’s feet, extending to the end of the sky, as if connecting the sun and moon together.
On both sides of the golden avenue, countless Spiritual Simurgh Beasts appeared.
Many of them were ancient different species.
Some danced like Immortal Cranes and colorful butterflies.
Some cleared the way like primordial fierce beasts.
Nie Xiaoqian became the focal point of the world within the scroll.
Under the shocking gazes of everyone.
She slowly opened her eyes; at this moment, her eyes contained the sun, moon, and stars, all things in the sky and earth.
Boom!
Astonishing thunder arose between heaven and earth.
A terrifying oppressive power quickly swept across the entire world within the scroll, simultaneously spreading outward.
The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts, Bai Suzhen, Cyan Snake, and the young girl Ling’Er.
They almost instinctively knelt down directly.
"Greetings to Lady Nuwa!"
The four spoke in unison, their tones both shocked and filled with respect.
"Lady Nuwa..."
The Long-armed Ape couldn’t help but slightly bend its body, its heart filled with surging waves.
No choice.
The name "Lady Nuwa" was simply too monumental.
Whether in the Grand Thousand Worlds or the Ganges Universe, or even the outer demon lands.
This was a name known to all!
...
"It’s the aura of an Extreme Quasi-Saint!"
Outside the scroll, the Demon Realm also felt the descent of this oppressive power.
Countless demonic beings were stunned by it.
"Nuwa...has returned!"
The Demon Ancestor and Ksitigarbha exchanged glances, their gazes landing on the turbulent Map of Mountains and Rivers, their eyes filled with shock.
"Directly reaching the pinnacle of the Quasi-Saint Realm, is she going to reclaim the Sage’s position in the Mortal World?"
Princess Iron Fan and Great Ming King were also struck silent with amazement.
The Quasi-Saint Realm, although lacking the cumbersome levels of one to nine.
Still, there were distinctions of strength and weakness.
Just as Golden Cicada, though supported by the World Honored One, his own strength ranked him among the low end of the Quasi-Saints.
Great Ming King, during the brief period before the Divine Enthronement Tribulation, was famed as the strongest beneath the sage. Still, after Kong Xuan’s body was cut down, she became a weakling among the Quasi-Saints.
Even last time, regaining some strength with Qilin Holy Blood, she could be said to rank in the middle of Quasi-Saints.
The Demon Race Celestial Court’s Demon Ancestor belonged to the higher-grade Quasi-Saints, infinitely close to the peak.
In this place, aside from the previous owner of that one Black Lotus, no one’s raw strength should surpass his.
However, at this moment, the aura spilling from the Map of Mountains and Rivers was already that of a true extreme Quasi-Saint!
The crucial point is.
This extreme Quasi-Saint is Lady Nuwa, returning from transformation!
Lady Nuwa was a sage of endless ages past, with the experience of becoming a sage, now coupled with the strength of an extreme Quasi-Saint.
The Sage’s position is naturally hers to take!
"In the end, she still returned. One can hardly imagine what heights she will reach upon becoming a sage again..."
The expressions of the present Quasi-Saints were exceedingly complex, their inner thoughts full of emotion.
After giving up the Sage’s position post-transformation, she returns with a brand-new presence to reclaim the Sage’s position.
