With the help of merit, Nuwa and Houtu finally broke through to the Secondary Stage of Sage-to-be.
"Fellow Daoist Houtu, I really have to thank you and this little fellow.”
When she opened her eyes, Goddess Nvywa thanked Houtu immediately. Her eyes were filled with gratitude.
Only by experiencing it would one know how terrifying the effect of this merit was.
Nuwa also knew that this was definitely not a simple Heavenly Merit, but a Great Dao Merit transformed from the Origin of the Great Dao.
Compared to the Heavenly Merit, increasing one's strength might also cause some unstable foundation effects.
There was no such drawback when the merit of the Great Dao increased one's strength.
After all, all living beings in the world pursued the Great Dao.
Living beings repeatedly tempered themselves in order to get closer to the Great Dao.
Not only was there no harm in fusing with the Great Dao merit to increase his strength, but there were also many benefits.
Houtu shook her head with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, it was your own fate that you were able to obtain this opportunity.
Moreover, you were the one who provided these spiritual fruits. Without these things, the little guy won't be able to spit out merit, so you don't have to worry too much.
However, the less you know about this secret, the better. I hope you can keep it a secret.
I see that Fellow Daoist is a trustworthy person, so I'm sharing this matter with you.”
Although Houtu was very satisfied with Nüwa's previous performance, there were still some things that needed to be said. At the very least, she had to remind her. After all, people wanted to change.
Xiantian lifeforms were no exception. Under such great temptation, anything could happen.
Hearing this, Goddess Nvywa understood Houtu's thoughts. Without hesitation, she put her fingers together and raised her head.
"Today, I, Nuwa, swear that I will never tell anyone about what happened today.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to make any progress in his cultivation.”
Nüwa was decisive and made the same oath in front of Houtu.
Even Houtu couldn't help but be moved by Nüwa's words.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, you're being too serious.”
Goddess Nvywa's oath was sincere. After all, the most important thing in the life of the creatures in Untainted Land was cultivation. If they could not make any progress in cultivation, they might as well die.
Hearing this oath, Houtu knew that she had not misjudged Nüwa.
Hearing Houtu's words, Nuwa shook her head seriously and said firmly.
" This oath isn't heavy at all. Fellow Daoist Houtu, you and I both know that this little guy can swallow natural treasures and spit out the merits of the Great Path. How terrifying is this opportunity?"
To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that you've already subdued the little fellow and forcefully snatching it would have karma involved, I'm afraid I would have been tempted.
Now that I have such an oath binding me, I can also put an end to this thought.”
Nuwa admitted.
Houtu didn't say anything more after hearing Nüwa's words.
It was enough to say this, but it would seem too distant if he continued.
Houtu and Nuwa turned to look at Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan was sleeping soundly on the stone table.
Her soft belly was heaving up and down, and from time to time, one or two soft snores could be heard.
Her cute appearance made Nüwa and Houtu's eyes soften.
"This little fellow is really carefree.”
"I wonder what kind of spirit beast he is. I've never seen him before.”
Nuwa sighed.
"Speaking of which, this little thing really knows how to hide its talent and cultivation speed. Coupled with its innate divine ability, it's definitely not something that ordinary prehistoric spirit beasts can possess.
Even the top innate spirit beasts are thousands of miles away from it. Back then, we didn't even notice it.”
Houtu smiled.
If he didn't have that feeling in his heart, he would have missed this great opportunity.
"Actually, it's not strange. An extraordinary item will definitely hide its strength and bide its time.
The more divine items, the more restrained they would be.
Presumably, this little fellow was the same.”
Nuwa nodded in agreement and sat back at the stone table. She rested her chin on her hand and looked at Zhou Yuan quietly with a look of fondness in her eyes.
Not to mention the supernatural powers and merits, just her appearance alone was enough to move his heart. She was too cute, especially since Goddess Nvywa and Houtu were both female cultivators. They were not immune to such cute attacks.
Nuwa and Houtu chatted casually.
Their relationship had become much closer.
However, Houtu and Nuwa would lower their voices when they spoke.
Even though they knew that the little fellow in front of them would not wake up easily, the two women, who were filled with motherly love, deliberately lowered their voices.
Just this detail alone was enough to show how much the two sisters liked Zhou Yuan.
However, even though Houtu and Nuwa did not speak loudly, it did not mean that there was no one else.
Houtu and Goddess Nvywa were chatting when they suddenly heard a loud bell ring from outside the Dojo. Both of them felt enlightened.
Nuwa snorted in dissatisfaction. Then, she immediately set up a layer of protection around Zhou Yuan to block out the sound. She did not even care about herself.
He was afraid that the noise would disturb Zhou Yuan.
As the bell rang, East Emperor Taiyi's voice rang in Houtu and Nuwa's ears.
After hearing Taiyi's words, Houtu frowned.
"Big brother killed the demon god Yingzhao? The Monster Race wants to start a war with the Sorcerer Race?"
This news was indeed a little sudden.
At the same time, Houtu was curious why her big brother would kill the Monster God Yingzhao.
All kinds of doubts lingered in Houtu's mind.
"Fellow Daoist Houtu, do you need any help?”Goddess Nvywa, who was sitting nearby, had also heard the rumors about Taiyi and asked Houtu.
This time, he was able to successfully break through to the middle stage of the Quasi-Sage realm because he owed a huge karma.
There was such a cause and effect here.
Helping Houtu deal with the Monster Clan was not something that could not be justified.
Houtu shook her head.
"There's no need for that, Fellow Daoist Nuwa. Thank you for your kindness. It's just a mere Demon Tribe.”
"It's a pity that I can't stay here any longer. The war between the Sorcerer and Demon Race is about to begin. I have to rush back as soon as possible to avoid any mishaps.”
As she spoke, Houtu turned to look at Zhou Yuan who was still sleeping soundly.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, I have a favor to ask of you.”Houtu looked at Nuwa and said with a serious expression.
Nuwa was stunned.
"Fellow Daoist Houtu, it's fine if you have something to say.”
" My fellow cultivator," Houtu nodded and said," the Wu Tribe and the Demon Tribe are at war. As one of the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery, I'm afraid I don't have the time to take care of this little guy."
I want him to stay with you for this period of time.
Please take good care of him for me. I'll come back to pick him up after this matter is over.”
Nuwa was shocked.
She really didn't expect Houtu to trust her so much.
Taking a long breath, Nuwa looked at Houtu with a serious expression and said seriously.
"Alright, since Fellow Daoist can trust me, I'll definitely do my best.
When you come back, I will definitely return this little fellow to you.”
"I'm relieved to hear that, Fellow Daoist Nuwa.
I still have things to do, so I won't stay any longer. Fellow Daoist, take care.”
After saying that, Houtu didn't continue the small talk. She turned into a stream of light and disappeared from Buzhou Mountain in the blink of an eye.
He headed straight for the Sorcerer tribe, leaving Nuwa and Zhou Yuan behind.
Looking at Zhou Yuan who was still sleeping soundly on the stone table, Nuwa's eyes revealed gentleness.
"Little guy, we'll be living together for a while.”
Nuwa gently patted Zhou Yuan's head and gently hugged him in her arms, afraid that she would disturb him.
