Chapter 1489 - 1490: Creating Humans to Be Gods
"If not from the Human Clan, how could he be one of the Three Emperors?"
Shennong, Fuxi, Nuwa—three Human Emperors from the Primeval Era, marked the true beginning of the Human Clan’s ascendency in this world.
Hence, at first, Su Chengyu showed respect to the Heaven-Mending Stone, a being whose very name implied a deep connection with Nuwa, establishing an equal pact with it.
The Heaven-Mending Stone shimmered with a trace of light and said: "That is your Human Clan’s historical Nuwa, not to say that she isn’t Empress Nuwa, but rather that she’s not the Nuwa Immortal Emperor as recognized in your perception."
Chengyu pondered this and then said: "So the beginning of the Human Clan was the starting point of Empress Nuwa’s creation of mankind?"
"Yes, that was in an age before the Rejuvenation War had even begun, when Empress Nuwa, who sought to truly master the Path of Creation, arrived in this land, which back then, was a barren expanse."
The Heaven-Mending Stone looked at Chengyu and counter-asked: "What is the Path of Creation to your understanding?"
Chengyu shook his head, his knowledge of the Path of Creation was scant; only after possessing the Power of the Dao could he sense a shadow of the Path of Creation in the Heaven-Mending Stone’s methods, but he almost had no understanding of what this Path of Creation actually was.
"Every being has its own destiny, Creation gives life to all, the Path of Creation divides into seven, its mysteries so profound that even I, who have glimpsed only a fraction, can hardly expound in detail. But for Empress Nuwa, to achieve the Immortal Emperorship, the Heavenly Dao that she sought to cultivate was one that creates all things."
"The Path of Creation gives birth to all things?"
"Yes, all beings under heaven are naturally nurtured by Heavenly Dao, whether from the Human Clan or Divine Clan, all are nothing more than higher beings with self-awareness born into the Myriad Heavens and Worlds. Not knowing how to control this complete Path of Creation, Empress Nuwa was also troubled for a long time, so much so that she chose to keep a low profile throughout the Ancient Age, until the advent of the Primeval Era."
