2054 Visiting Emperor Nuwa, My Goal is to Consolidate Three Thousand Types of Dao
Chu Kuangren was the Ruler of the Underworld.

However, he now felt embarrassed possessing the Underworld Authority.

If that was the case, who should he give the Underworld Authority to?

Hua Wuai was right about him just wanting to slack off.

Even so, he had to find someone to manage the Underworld in his stead and ensure that the Underworld’s order would be maintained.

‘Now, who should I entrust this to?’

He went through several names in his head.

Finally, he decided on the High Priest.

Besides Chu Kuangren himself and Hua Wuai, the High Priest was the most powerful being in the Underworld. Furthermore, he was very loyal to Chu Kuangren.

Most importantly, the High Priest was the most qualified for the job.

If Chu Kuangren gave him the Underworld Authority, no one would dare to have any objections.

Even if things were to happen, he had Hua Wuai to keep everyone in check.

The High Priest watched as the Underworld Authority was transferred into his body. When he sensed the control he had gained over the Underworld, he was still dumbfounded.

He could not believe that he had become the Underworld Ruler just like that.

In the past, he would have never dared to imagine something like that happening to him.

He looked at Chu Kuangren, who breathed a sigh of relief after transferring the Underworld Authority to him as if he had just gotten rid of a burden. That made the High Priest speechless.

The Underworld Authority was something that many in the Underworld coveted.

‘However, why doesn’t the Ghost Emperor want it?’

‘D*mn.’

‘What kind of level has the Ghost Emperor’s cultivation reached? I can only imagine.’

Despite having received the Underworld Authority, the High Priest looked at Chu Kuangren as if he was staring into a bottomless ocean.

Chu Kuangren was someone he could never hold a candle against.

‘He really lives up to the name of a Ghost Emperor.’

The High Priest thought as his admiration and respect for Chu Kuangren grew.

“Alright. It’s time to deal with this person.”

Chu Kuangren waved his sleeves.

Suddenly, a soul was released from his possession.

The soul was dressed in long red robes, and that person was the Underworld River Forefather.

“High Priest, bring this man to the Eighteen Levels of Hell, where he will be punished for eternity!” Chu Kuangren said coldly.

“Very well.”

The High Priest nodded.

He, too, was enraged when he learned about the Underworld River Forefather’s crimes. The act of defiling dead souls was an unforgivable crime in the Underworld!

After he was done with that matter, Chu Kuangren visited the Three-lives River again.

Amidst the sea of equinox flowers, Hua Wuai was leaning on the Three-lives Tablet. Her small and delicate feet were dipped in the water, sending ripples across the river’s surface as they moved.

Hua Wuai glanced at Chu Kuangren when she sensed him approaching.

“What’s up?”

“Just visiting an old friend for a chat.”

Chu Kuangren walked into the sea of flowers.

The fragrance of the flowers filled the surroundings, creating a wonderful scenery.

That place could be considered the most beautiful location in the Underworld.
At the same time, it was also the greatest forbidden area in the Underworld. If anyone were to step foot in here without Hua Wuai’s permission, she would make her anger and wrath clear to them.

Only Chu Kuangren was allowed to enter and leave as he pleased.

“Take a seat,” Hua Wuai said.

Chu Kuangren made himself at home and sat next to her.

“Where have you been in the past twenty thousand years?”

“I’ve been visiting other universes.”

Hua Wuai looked shocked. However, she was not surprised.

After all, with the Central Heaven Universe’s existence, they had known long ago of the existence of other universes.

“What’s it like over in the other universes?”

“Nothing much really. Most of them are similar to Pan Gu Universe. Some universes don’t even have Arch Gilded Immortals, and they’re extremely weak. Meanwhile, there are universes where cultivators stand on equal footing with the Great Dao, coexisting peacefully with each other…” Chu Kuangren calmly spoke of his experiences visiting the other universes.

Hua Wuai was even more amazed.

She did not expect Chu Kuangren to have visited more than one universe.

“How many universes have you been to?”

“Frankly speaking, I’ve lost count.”

Chu Kuangren laughed. He assumed he must have visited at least seven or eight hundred universes. Despite that, he dared not say he had visited all in the Infiniverse.

Only when he ventured out did he realize the vastness of the Infiniverse.

It was far beyond what he could imagine.

After chatting for a while, Chu Kuangren suddenly recalled something. “By the way, do you know anyone who in Pan Gu Universe is the most proficient in Spatial Dao?”

“Spatial Dao, huh…”

Hua Wuai pondered. “Not many specialize in Spatial Dao. The most famous ones I know of are the West Buddhist Land’s Tathagata with his Buddhist-Kingdom-In-the-Palm and the Wuzhuang Temple’s Earthen Immortal Ancestor, Zhen Yuanzi, who’s well known for his Enchanted Sleeve technique…”

“They’re not the ones I’m looking for. Do you know of any willow branch that can exert tremendous spatial energy?”

“A willow branch….”

Hua Wuai thought for a while, but nothing came to mind.

Hence, Chu Kuangren did not force the topic further either.

Unfortunately, he could not deduce the origins of that willow branch using the Great Destiny Technique. It was evident that whoever it was, that cultivator was at least a Primordial.

His path of destiny might even be beyond a Primordial’s!

Otherwise, there was no reason Chu Kuangren could not find out anything about it.

After chatting with Hua Wuai for a while, he left the Underworld and returned to the Immortal World.

First, he handled some affairs in the Empire before spending some well-deserved quality time with Gu Linglong.

Several years later, Chu Kuangren left the Empire. He brought Gu Linglong and Lan Yu along to visit some of the ancient Immortal cultivators.

The first person they visited was, of course, the mother of humanity, Emperor Nuwa!

Up in the Nine Heavens, inside Emperor Nuwa’s Palace, Chu Kuangren and his party arrived.

Seemingly having sensed his arrival, the great doors of the magnificent Emperor Nuwa Palace, brimming with Immortal Sparks, slowly opened.

A graceful and slender figure walked out to greet them.

“Oh, it’s you.”

Chu Kuangren was surprised.

That person was none other than Nuwa’s successor, Hua Xi.

“Greetings, Immortal King.”

Hua Xi bowed and greeted them.

“You’re quite fortunate to have the opportunity to practice your cultivation with Emperor Nuwa by your side.”

“It’s all thanks to Emperor Nuwa for taking pity on me.”

Hua Xi was also very grateful for that.

Although she used to proclaim herself as Nuwa’s successor, she had only received a small portion of Nuwa’s inheritance. Hence, she was not the true successor of Emperor Nuwa. The same thing could be said of Fuxi’s successor and Xuanyuan’s successor too.

“Is Emperor Nuwa around?”

“She’s waiting for you in the main hall, Immortal King.”

With that, Chu Kuangren and his party followed Hua Xi and entered the palace’s main hall.

The atmosphere inside the palace was solemn.

Apparitions of true dragons and phoenixes soared above the main hall, adding a sense of divinity to the atmosphere.

Meanwhile, a stunning woman with a peaceful and gentle demeanor sat on the throne inside the hall.

Chu Kuangren had seen Nuwa before.

Besides her, he had also seen Fuxi, Shennong, and the other Human Emperors back when he went to the Human Emperor Sect and was shown the illusions in the history books.

He had also experienced many of the great events throughout the history of humanity.

“Greetings, Emperor Nuwa.”

Seeing that he was standing before the mother of humanity, Chu Kuangren put away his arrogance and showed her the respect she deserved.

Gu Linglong and Lan Yu also bowed gently.

“It’s alright to skip the formalities, Immortal King.” Nuwa chuckled.

She looked at Chu Kuangren with a hint of contentment and compassion. It was as if she was welcoming one of her children who had accomplished great things.

“Have a seat.”

Nuwa waved her sleeves, revealing three putuans before them.

Chu Kuangren and the others sat down.

The purpose of his visit this time was to mentally spar with her in the Dao.

Therefore, he did not hide his intentions and immediately stated his request.

“After you.”

Nuwa did not refuse his request either.

As the two started mentally sparring, Daoist chimes reverberated through the skies, where a myriad of conjurations appeared. In the sky, golden lotuses bloomed while dragons and phoenixes soared.

Both sides did not hold back during the mental sparring match, and they both benefited greatly from it.

Gu Linglong and Lan Yu, who were at the side, also gained great insights from watching their mental sparring match.

Chu Kuangren discovered that Nuwa’s understanding of the Dao was so profound that she could have consolidated all her other Dao and broken through to become a Primordial.

However, she still had yet to break through into the Primordial Realm.

He could not help but ask out of curiosity.

“Oh, what about you, Immortal King? Why have you not broken through too?” Nuwa directed the question back to him.

“My goal is to consolidate three thousand types of Dao!” Chu Kuangren said calmly.

He spoke as if it was an easy thing to achieve.

Even Nuwa’s heart skipped a beat as she was shocked.

“Immortal King… That’s a bold and awe-inspiring goal!”

Hardly anyone in the Infiniverse could comprehend and command three thousand types of Dao, let alone someone in Pan Gu Universe.
