Primordial Era: Starting by bumping into Nuwa!

Chapter 12: The Innate Gourd Vine!

Bai Chen led the Xuanming and Houtu sisters to the outside of the secret realm's barrier, and pointed at the barrier, saying:

"Xuanming, Houtu, this is the place."

"Use the power of laws and the power of creation merit that you inherited from the Great God Pangu to attack this restriction!"

Bai Chen called the Xuanming and Houtu sisters to work for another reason: the Ancestral Witches possessed the power of the laws and the power of the creation merits of the great god Pangu.

This is Mount Buzhou. Using the power that the Ancestral Witches inherited from the Great God Pangu is the most suitable way to deal with the secret realm restrictions of Mount Buzhou.

To understand why later powerful beings couldn't destroy Mount Buzhou, while the ancestral witch Gonggong could break it apart.

The fundamental reason is that the ancestral god Gonggong possessed the bloodline of the great god Pangu and inherited some of Pangu's power and merits.

In the entire primordial world, besides the Twelve Ancestral Witches, only the Three Pure Ones, who are also of the same lineage as Pangu, could destroy Mount Buzhou.

Apart from that, even a great being who has attained enlightenment and possesses the Primordial Dao Fruit, or a Heavenly Dao that has been revived in later generations, cannot destroy Mount Buzhou.

"Lazy Cat, what's in it for us to help you?"

Xuanming didn't start working immediately, but instead discussed terms with Bai Chen.

This lazy cat was playing without thinking about its two sisters.

She thinks of her two sisters while working; she's really something!

"Xuanming, didn't I just treat you to something to eat?"

(●ʘ̆(工)ʘ̆●)づ

Bai Chen put one paw on his hip and pointed the other at Xuan Ming, looking very unhappy. Why did this witch suddenly change her mind?

"You ancestral witches, as the true descendants of Pangu, how can you eat the food of this great god and then renege on your duties?"

"Xuanming, if you try to cheat, I will spread the word throughout the prehistoric world that you ate the food and then refused to work, making you ancestral witches a laughing stock."

Bai Chen brought up the name of the true lineage of Pangu again to threaten Xuan Ming. Did he really think that the things of the great god Bai Chen were so easy to eat?

Bai Chen is no pushover. If she dares to cheat on me, I promise I'll make sure she doesn't get away with it either.

"Fat cat, I'm never eating anything you give me again."

Xuanming's expression immediately darkened, and he said something rather irritating.

"The Law of Ice!"

"The Law of Earth!"

Xuanming and Houtu unleashed their power of laws to attack the restriction. A mysterious and supreme power emanated from Xuanming and Houtu, and soon the restriction began to show abnormalities.

"This must be the power of creation merit! It's truly amazing!"

Seeing this scene, Bai Chen couldn't help but sigh.

Bai Chen envied the power of creation merit and wanted it too.

If it possessed the merit of creating the world, perhaps it would already be ruling over a region by now.

"Break this for me, you great god!"

As time passed, the restrictions on this place became weaker and weaker. Bai Chen quietly summoned a fragment of the Creation Jade Disc and unleashed a divine light.

The restrictions on the secret realm finally gave way and were broken.

"After taking so long, it's finally broken through."

Bai Chen was overjoyed. This secret realm had wasted so much of its time, and it was eager to find out what treasures were inside.

However, Bai Chen had one more thing to do before entering the secret realm.

"Xuanming Houtu, you may leave now."

Bai Chen pushed Xuanming Houtu, trying to drive the two sisters away.

There was no other way; it was really worried about the two sisters being here.

What if the two sisters are immoral and steal my opportunity because they are greedy?

"Lazy Cat, are you planning to kick me while I'm down?"

"Besides, my sister and I aren't going to steal anything from you."

Xuanming was very dissatisfied with Bai Chen's behavior and grabbed Bai Chen's cheek.

This fat cat has used the two sisters and now wants to kick them out; that's really too much.

Seeing that he couldn't drive away the Xuanming and Houtu sisters, Bai Chen had no choice but to say:

"You all wait for me outside the secret realm; you are not allowed to come in."

"After I emerge, I will tell you a great secret from the primordial world, a secret that concerns the attainment of enlightenment!"

Bai Chen knows many secrets, some of which are related to attaining enlightenment.

Unfortunately, although those secrets could lead to enlightenment, Bai Chen himself could not use them.

This situation is like Bai Chen knowing the answers to the imperial examination but not having the examination admission ticket.

These answers can only be sold to the pre-selected top scorers who have the exam admission tickets.

Even if those people knew that Bai Chen was selling answers, because Bai Chen's client was the pre-selected top scorer, those in higher positions would turn a blind eye even if they knew.

Anyway, the top scorer is predetermined. As long as it's that person, it doesn't matter what happens in the process.

"Xiao Bai, is this really true?"

Upon hearing that it concerned the secret of attaining enlightenment, even Houtu became excited.

Although Houtu is peaceful by nature, as a descendant of Pangu, she also has a desire to attain enlightenment.

To be precise, none of the primordial gods and divine beasts in the primordial world did not want to attain enlightenment.

Only by attaining enlightenment can one transcend the river of time, remain indestructible through countless eons, and possess the power to restart the earth, water, wind, and fire, and to recreate the world.

If one cannot attain enlightenment, even a powerful being who has only taken a step towards enlightenment is ultimately just an ant.

"Tch~~"

Seeing that Houtu believed Bai Chen's words, Xuanming covered her face with one hand and said helplessly:

"Little sister, can you stop being so naive? You actually believe this lazy cat's lies!"

Xuanming felt that she was a complete failure as the older sister!

They failed to educate Houtu successfully, leaving her terribly naive!

While Xuanming was educating Houtu, Bai Chen had already entered the secret realm.

A divine vine came into its view, with seven divine flowers on it, each flower exuding the power of its own laws.

Just as Bai Chen was examining the divine vine, the other party spoke up:

"If you are not Pangu, why did I sense Pangu's power to control the heavens and the power of his creation merits when the barrier was broken?"

The divine vine sensed that when the restriction was broken, the unique divine power of the great god Pangu, as well as the power of the creation of heaven and earth, appeared.

However, he was quite surprised that he could not sense these two divine powers from Bai Chen at this moment.

"So it was your innate gourd vine!"

Bai Chen then guessed the true identity of this divine vine: an innate spiritual root—the innate gourd vine.

It's that innate gourd vine that never took human form, intending to directly attain enlightenment.

It was that innate gourd vine that failed to attain enlightenment, thus perishing and disappearing, and was dismembered and had its gourd removed by Nuwa, the Three Pure Ones, and so on.

According to what Bai Chen knew, the Primordial Gourd Vine, this great calamity seed, had condensed into a Primordial Fruit position, but because its physical body was too weak to bear the Primordial Fruit position, it perished and its Dao dissipated.

If the other party had been a bit more resilient and had been able to withstand the Primordial State, they might actually have succeeded in attaining enlightenment.

"By the way, Innate Gourd Vine, which of the chaotic gods and demons are you?"

Although Bai Chen knew that the Innate Gourd Vine was one of the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, he did not know which one it was or what law it governed.

The innate gourd vine was shocked upon hearing this, but fortunately its bark was thick enough that Bai Chen could not see the other party's expression.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you mean by that?"

The innate gourd vine and Bai Chen tried to evade the question, refusing to admit their identities.

There was no way he could admit to his unusual identity.
