Then, Taiqing pointed a trembling finger at Ling Wudao.
"You impudent brat... stop spouting nonsense!"
"Spouting nonsense, hahahaha!"
"If I were spouting nonsense, then why is your complexion so pale, and why are your hands trembling? Shouldn't you be acting all calm and collected?"
"Since you practice the Dao of Non-action, you should treat my words with total indifference. Yet looking at your current state, there is not a shred of tranquility about you. Could it be that my words hit home and disrupted your state of mind?"
At this moment, Ling Wudao's goal was to shatter Taiqing's state of mind. Only by doing so would it be easy to completely abolish Human Teaching later on. If Taiqing were at his peak condition, abolishing Human Teaching would be no simple task.
Sure enough, upon hearing Ling Wudao's words, Taiqing's inner state collapsed instantly. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the fury in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
Right now, the only thing on his mind was to obliterate Ling Wudao; only this could vent the raging anger within him.
With that thought, Taiqing immediately struck with all his might. He threw out a palm, and the void suddenly darkened. A giant hand reached out from the void and slammed down toward Ling Wudao.
Witnessing this, Ling Wudao did not panic in the slightest. With Nuwa and Tongtian by his side, Taiqing had no way to harm him.
"Old dog Taiqing, my words exposed your scheme, so now you want to silence me by killing me, is that it?"
"Hmph!"
"You dare insult a Sage! Your crime warrants death. Begone from this world, poor Daoist!"
Just as the giant hand was about to strike Ling Wudao, a massive blade beam slashed across the void, instantly reducing Taiqing's giant hand to nothingness.
"Taiqing, how dare you try to harm my people right in front of me! You completely disregard me!"
"Nuwa, this wretch insulted a Sage, and his crime is punishable by death. You had better step aside right now, or don't blame me for suppressing you along with him."
Hearing Taiqing's words, Nuwa let out a cold laugh.
"Suppress me? Does Taiqing even have the ability? Let alone just you, even if you add Yuanshi, you two might not be able to suppress me."
As her voice faded, the aura around Nuwa surged once more, instantly elevating her realm to the fourth heaven of Sagehood.
Seeing that Nuwa's cultivation realm was even higher than his own, Taiqing wore a look of sheer disbelief.
"How can this be? Your cultivation is actually higher than mine!"
"There is nothing impossible about it. The Merit and Qi fortune I gained from creating the Human Race far exceed yours. You merely relied on the Human Race's Qi fortune to attain Sagehood, so how could you ever compare to me?"
With that, Nuwa reached out with a grab, and the seven Heavenly Blade Divine Sabers instantly merged into a single golden saber, which slowly settled into her hand.
"You stepped in to block me earlier, and now you attack the Human Race. It is time we settled these accounts."
Nuwa gripped the golden saber with both hands and swung it with all her might. A colossal golden saber blade, a million zhang long, materialized in the void.
"Boom!"
The massive golden saber descended from the void. The terrifying edge sliced through space, instantly tearing countless cracks across the firmament, its sharpness seemingly capable of splitting The Primordial World in two.
Seeing this, Taiqing hurriedly summoned the Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Linglong Pagoda.
The pagoda flew out from behind Taiqing and enveloped him within its protection.
"Bang!"
The golden saber struck the body of the pagoda, sending a tremendous wave of force reverberating inside. Taiqing's eyes bulged, as if he had been struck squarely by a massive hammer.
"Puff!"
A sweet taste rose in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Witnessing this, Yuanshi immediately summoned the Heavens-Celebrating Auspicious Cloud to assist Taiqing in resisting Nuwa's onslaught.
"Eldest Brother, are you alright?"
"I am fine. I never expected Nuwa's strength to be so formidable. We underestimated her."
Seeing Taiqing suppressed, Ling Wudao figured the time was right.
He shouted at the top of his lungs, "My fellow humans! We helped Taiqing attain the Dao, yet he turns around and helps the Monster Clan deal with us! Do we still need such a master of Human Teaching?"
Hearing this from below, the human masses immediately roared in unison, "We do not! We do not!"
Low, deep voices rose from the ground, and their unified shouts echoed across the heavens and earth, gradually causing the sky to darken.
At that moment, Ling Wudao felt an inexplicable power surging within his body, and he saw the Qi fortune of the Human Race continuously converging toward him.
Just as I surmised: as long as the Human Race is united, the power of Human Dao manifests. This power within my body must be the power of Human Dao.
Yet this power should belong to Nuwa. After all, she created the Human Race; logically speaking, she should be the spokesperson for Human Dao. Could it be that my transmigration triggered a butterfly effect?
Or perhaps because Nuwa became a Heavenly Dao Sage, she could not become the spokesperson for Human Dao, so Human Dao chose me instead?
If that is truly the case, things are going to get very interesting.
However, to abolish Human Teaching, I must have the Kongtong Seal. Let me first try using this power to summon the Kongtong Seal. With the Kongtong Seal in hand, abolishing Human Teaching will be a breeze.
With that thought, Ling Wudao began attempting to channel the power of Human Dao within him.
"Power of Human Dao, I ask you to help me summon the Kongtong Seal!"
As soon as those words left his mouth, a brilliant nine-color divine light erupted from around Ling Wudao. A moment later, an indescribable power surged around him like a tidal wave.
Upon witnessing this, the various Sages, as well as Dijun and Taiyi, all wore expressions of absolute astonishment.
Tongtian, standing off to the side, thought to himself: This power actually carries the will of all living beings! Although it is still weak right now, if it grows strong enough, even Heavenly Dao might not be able to suppress it.
The kid just mentioned the "power of Human Dao." Could it be that The Primordial World features more than just Heavenly Dao?
At this moment, Tongtian was not the only one harboring such doubts; Nuwa, Taiqing, Yuanshi, and the Two Saints of the West shared the exact same thought.
Just as the Sages were pondering the power of Human Dao, Shouyang Mountain suddenly began to tremble.
Immediately afterward, a pillar of golden light soared into the sky, followed by two gigantic golden dragons of Qi fortune emerging from Shouyang Mountain, circling and dancing around the pillar of light.
Within the golden light, a massive seal materialized. The figures of the Five Emperors were clearly visible on the seal, encircled by nine golden dragon souls, while the two characters "Kongtong" were engraved on its base.
The moment the seal appeared, both Nuwa and Taiqing sensed its immense significance.
Taiqing turned to Jieyin and Zhunti, saying, "Two Junior Brothers, I ask for your assistance in securing this seal for me. Once the deed is done, this poor Daoist is willing to give you twenty Nine-Turn Golden Pills."
Upon hearing Taiqing's words, Jieyin and Zhunti immediately understood how vital the seal was to him. Although they themselves coveted the seal, they knew that if they grabbed it, they would inevitably face a joint siege by Taiqing and Nuwa.
Rather than being targeted by two Sages, it was far more pragmatic to let Taiqing have it in exchange for some tangible benefits.
"Senior Brother Taiqing, since you have said so, my junior brother and I will help you this once."
