Inside the cave.
Nanan finally saw the woman.
The moment she saw her, Nanan jolted. She was captivated by this woman’s beauty.
This woman was very beautiful. In comparison, she was like a delicately crafted art piece while the others were merely drafts.
Living things made of Heavenly Qi had a benefit—they were all beautiful and flawless. For example, Daji and Fire Phoenix. Their beauty had exceeded ordinary living beings.
Other than beauty, the most captivating thing was the Qi exuding from her body. It was formal, elegant, and luxurious. It had a motherly glow, making one feel extremely comforted and familiar.
“He…hello!”
Nanan looked at the woman blankly for a moment before snapping out of it. She cautiously walked past the snake tail on the ground as she slowly approached the woman.
The snake tail was part of the woman’s lower body, like a viper, twisting from the cave outward.
Looking at how Nanan was cautious, the woman smiled gently. A glow appeared on the snake’s tail and they turned into a pair of beautiful legs. She leaned on the stone wall as she smiled at Nanan.
“Little girl, who’s your master? Be it his power or insights, I was deeply impressed.” The woman was surprised. She could not recall who would be able to teach such a stunning child. Since she left the Eldritch World, they went into an Absolute Era. It was impossible to teach such a talented girl.
As a Saint, she could tell by just a look that Nanan’s body was solid. She was no older than fifteen years old.
How unbelievable! Even back in the faraway Eldritch World, unless it was blessed by Heaven, it was impossible for such talent to be cultivated.
Perhaps other than herself, another Saint had come back? And took in a disciple?
“Ha-ha-ha, my mastery was taught by Brother. My Insights, hmm…” Nanan thought for a moment. Then, she continued, “Brother let me watch television and I learned it myself. The figures in the television were powerful. I want to be like them. I want to become a well-known hero!”
Brother?
Television?
The woman halted. What was a television?
Perhaps it was some kind of passed-on treasure? Something that could solidify one’s Insights? A treasure for preaching?
However, she was sensitive. She sensed that the key was the little girl’s brother, not her master.
She could not help asking, “Your brother taught you to cultivate?”
“No, my brother only wants to live as an ordinary man. Why would he teach me?” Nanan shook her head. She said, sounding almost embarrassed, “We can only self-teach from the words and things Brother says. I think I’m too stupid. I only managed to learn a little.”
“Live as an ordinary man? Self…taught? Just a little?”
The woman felt her head aching. What was this? Perhaps she had arrived at a fake Eldritch World?
What kind of godly figure was her brother? He did not have to teach her? Merely through his words and actions, he managed to nurture such a powerful little girl? If he taught her directly, how would that turn out?!
She was perplexed. She needed to sort out her thoughts urgently.
Meanwhile, Nanan looked at the woman curiously. She blinked and asked, “Sister…are you Saint Nuwa?”
Nuwa looked at Nanan strangely. “Eh? You know me?”
“Wow, you really are Saint Nuwa!” Nanan cried out with surprise. She said happily, “Brother told me many of the eldritch stories. He said he was impressed by you. You not only restored the sky, you even created the human race! No wonder I thought you were so familiar!”
Nuwa was slightly shocked. She said, “Little girl, can you tell me, is your Brother…a Saint?”
Nanan shook her head. “No.”
As Nuwa was curious, Nanan continued, “Brother’s more powerful than a Saint. Heaven’s nothing to him. Perhaps he’s more powerful than…God Pangu!”
Nuwa smiled bitterly and shook her head.
This little girl was so innocent. It was likely that she thought of her brother as undefeatable for her to have said so. How could someone be more powerful than Father God Pangu?
It had been countless years since she left the Eldritch World. She walked into the Chaos and met many stunning figures. She had even heard of countless legends and her worldview was enlightened. Due to this, she fully understood how powerful and great Father God Pangu was.
This was merely an insignificant Eldritch World. How could it contain a figure more powerful than Father God Pangu? This was totally unrealistic!
Perhaps it was some kind of rising star.
However, since the Absolute Era, there were zero Saints left in here. Perhaps someone managed to cultivate into becoming a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal?
Nanan looked at Nuwa with anticipation. She asked sheepishly, “Can I call you Sister?”
Nuwa smiled. She ruffled Nanan’s head. “Of course.”
Nanan asked caringly, “Sister Nuwa, how can I save you from here?”
Nuwa waved it off. “You’re impressive to have come in. My fate’s determined. I’m happy to have met a human race sister like you before my death.”
“Sister, as the television said, I’m in charge of my own fate! There will surely be a way!”
Nanan looked up and saw that the mountain was hanging mid-air. From here, they could see the peak of the mountain. There was a golden glow like a cage hovering above Nuwa, weighing her down and trapping her here.
This pressure was very powerful. Nanan had experienced it before. Merely just a hint of it was able to trap Immortals. Nuwa was held down by this force, constantly having to withstand it. It must be very painful.
Nanan’s eyes instantly turned red. She sobbed, “Sister, I can go and ask the Jade Emperor and Empress for help. I can ask many people for help. There will be a way, and Brother, too! Brother will be able to help you!”
“Good child, don’t be sad.” Nuwa smiled and shook her head. She said, “I know clearly that my wounds won’t be able to be healed. I can’t help you much, but here’s a Chaos Spiritual Stone. Use this to cultivate. With your talent, it’s not impossible to become a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal.”
As she spoke, her hand flipped. On her palm, three snowy jade white stones appeared along with a strange Qi coming out from them. They were filled with Spiritual Qi.
“This is…”
Nanan held the stones, her face looking slightly strange.
Nuwa said, “These are Chaos Spiritual Stones. It only exists in the Chaos. You can use the Chaos Spiritual Qi from within these to cultivate. It won’t only speed up your cultivation, it’ll speed up your enlightenment as well.”
Nanan said, “Sister…this… I don’t think I can use them…”
Chaos Spiritual Qi. Brother’s four-part architecture had plenty of these. Compared to these stones, those stones back there were extremely pure.
Nuwa smiled, “Ha-ha, what a silly kid. You don’t need it for now, but when you arrive at the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, you’ll be able to use the Chaos Spiritual Qi from within them.”
“No, this thing, I…”
Nanan was trying to construct a sentence. She could not tell Nuwa directly that she looked down on her stones. It would sound rude.
With a thought, she turned it down indirectly, “Right, Sister, I have some fruits in here. You can have a try.”
‘Once Sister tries these fruits, she’ll be able to understand why I look down on these stones.’
Fruits?
Nuwa smiled.
What a silly child.
Unfortunately, before Nanan could take out the fruits, an extremely terrifying pressure landed from the sky.
This pressure came from the faraway world. It was unrestricted, coming to the ordinary realm from above.
The Jade Emperor and the rest who were traveling shivered thoroughly. They had goosebumps all over. Their hair was standing and they dared not breathe.
Cold sweat drenched them. They were transfixed mid-air. They dared not move.
What was that…
They looked at the sky in unison. They were terrified!
A Saint…from another world?!
Luckily, this pressure was only giving a warning. It was not acting on it.
It was like a human walking by an ant nest. He could easily destroy the nest or leave it alone.
Nuwa’s face changed. She bit her lip and gradually stood up against the pressure. “Nanan, hide behind me!”
“Hide behind you? Funny, is that useful?”
An elderly and hoarse voice was heard along with a figure of an elderly man gradually appearing inside the cave.
The space around him was twisting. There were forcefields all over him, as if he was implanted into this world but repelled by the forcefields.
“So, this is your world. Unfortunately, it’s useless. No wonder you came to steal from our world!”
The elder looked around. His eyes lit up suddenly when he saw the three Chaos Spiritual Stones.
With a flip of the hand, the three stones flew into his hand.
He had a smile on his face. “Chaos Spiritual Stones, good stuff. Makes this journey worthwhile after all!”
Nuwa took a deep breath. She said, “I can let you have the Chaos Spiritual Stones, but you’ll have to leave!”
“Leave? You’re asking me to leave?” the elder said coldly. “This is another world with countless treasures and Immortal Qi everywhere. If possible, I can use this world as my material to refine Ultimate Chaos Treasures! Do you think I’ll leave?”
Nuwa said coldly, “Since you know this is my world, you should also know I can use more power here!”
“You’re locked down by me! You’re about to die. How foolish of you for trying to threaten me,” the elder said nonchalantly. He raised his hand and slammed Nuwa down.
Vroom!
With a clap, the world changed and formed into a palm. It was not a massive movement, but to those close by, they could see how eerily terrifying this palm was!
Nuwa took a deep breath. She did not think of ways to fight back. She merely held onto Nanan’s shoulder and used up all of her power to open up a space in the air. She wanted to send Nanan away.
Nanan sensed it. She struggled and said, “Sister Nuwa, I don’t want to go!”
“How innocent! How would I let an ant run away under my eyes?” The elder shook his head. He found it funny. Similarly, he pressed his palm down on Nanan!
