Chapter 331: Sacred

"Senior, this is the Holy City of Nuwa belonging to our Human Race, established mainly to commemorate our saint, Nuwa…"

Several months later, Songgu Ying brought Li Xiaojun to a massive Human Race city.

"The Holy City of Nuwa; the Nuwa saint you mentioned is the one who created our Human Race, right?" Li Xiaojun asked Songgu Ying.

On Earth, there is a story of Nuwa creating humans, and he didn’t expect there would be a similar tale in the Kunlun Immortal Realm.

However, upon hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Songgu Ying looked surprised.

"Senior, why would you think we humans were created by someone else? Although the Nuwa saint was incredibly powerful and contributed much to our people, she is just one of us…"

Hearing Songgu Ying’s words, Li Xiaojun was momentarily speechless.

It seemed he had been misled by mythical stories all along.

The emergence of life should be the result of the natural evolution of the world.

Especially the appearance of humans, which was born from various coincidences and miracles.

How could such complex life be created by any single being?

"Senior, the Holy City of Nuwa is protected by an immortal formation, so we can only enter through the city gate."

"That’s fine; we can go through the city gate." Li Xiaojun nodded.

In Li Xiaojun’s divine sense perception, the Holy City of Nuwa did not exist, as it was shielded by the immortal formation. Moreover, even the divine sense enhanced by the system could not scan it.

Given this situation, the level of this immortal formation must be very high.

Soon, Li Xiaojun and Songgu Ying arrived at one of the city gates of the Holy City of Nuwa.

There were countless cultivators coming in and out, as densely populated as the Beijing subway at six in the morning.

"Senior, this area is for obtaining identity tokens. You must have an identity token to enter the Holy City of Nuwa."

Songgu Ying led Li Xiaojun to a building outside the city.

Through Songgu Ying’s communication, the person responsible for issuing identity tokens quickly provided Li Xiaojun with one, recording his soul wave.

Getting the token required an immortal essence stone, which Songgu Ying helped him pay for.

"Senior, the identity token is mainly to prevent the demon tribe from sneaking in, so…"

"I understand," Li Xiaojun waved his hand.

Now that he was here, he would naturally follow the rules.

Moreover, he was just a Golden Immortal; the Kunlun Immortal Realm had Taiyi Golden Immortals and even Da Luo Golden Immortals.

If he acted arrogantly here, he might end up suffering.

The identity token mainly establishes that you are a member of the Human Race and not a spy from the demon tribe.

When entering the city, you need to activate the identity token with your divine sense. If the divine sense wave does not match the recorded soul wave, the token cannot be activated, and you obviously cannot enter the city.

In this situation, it would be nearly impossible for the demon tribe to sneak into the city.

After activating the identity token at the city gate, Li Xiaojun and Songgu Ying quickly entered the Holy City of Nuwa together.

Upon entering the Holy City of Nuwa, Li Xiaojun finally saw the grand view of the Holy City.

The Holy City of Nuwa was enormous; based on Li Xiaojun’s observation, the population living here was no less than fifty million.

"Senior, my home is just ahead."

After entering the Holy City of Nuwa, Songgu Ying quickly flew with Li Xiaojun to a large estate.

"Ancestor!"

"The ancestor has returned!"

As Songgu Ying arrived at the estate, an immediate commotion arose below.

Soon, countless people gathered around and respectfully greeted Songgu Ying.

"Ancestor, you are finally back! I have missed you so much." A woman affectionately came forward and grabbed Songgu Ying’s arm.

"Don’t be so informal; let me introduce you all. This is…"

Songgu Ying prepared to introduce Li Xiaojun to her descendants but realized she seemed to forget Li Xiaojun’s name.

"You can call me Elder Li," Li Xiaojun said to Songgu Ying.

Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Songgu Ying hurriedly spoke to everyone, "This is Elder Li, my savior. You must treat him with even more respect than you treat me, understood?"

"Understood," everyone replied quickly.

"Elder Li, hello!"

"Greetings, Elder!"

Everyone greeted Li Xiaojun in unison.

"Senior, how about we talk downstairs?" Songgu Ying turned to Li Xiaojun.

"That works."

Li Xiaojun nodded and followed Songgu Ying into the estate.

"Senior, this is my home. My former partner’s surname was Mi, so all my descendants have the surname Mi. The eldest among these descendants is sixteen generations younger than me, so I am also their ancestor…"

As Songgu Ying led the way, she introduced Li Xiaojun.

Behind her and Li Xiaojun, a group of descendants followed closely.

"In addition to being the ancestor of the Mi Family, I am also an elder of the Family Alliance. The Family Alliance is a force composed of many families like ours, and it ranks among the top ten powers in the entire Human Race…"

"Senior, this place is where we host our most distinguished guests; you can stay here as long as you like…"

"Senior, I have arranged a feast for you. You just arrived from outside; you must not have tasted the delicious food of the Kunlun Realm. You must try it today…"

After returning home, Songgu Ying treated Li Xiaojun as if he were a reborn parent.

She instructed her descendants to prepare delicious food while she chatted with Li Xiaojun.

In the midst of their conversation, Li Xiaojun suddenly thought that since there was Nuwa in the Kunlun Realm, there might be other mythical figures as well.

So, Li Xiaojun asked Songgu Ying, "Friend Song, do you know which divine beings are equal to the Nuwa saint?"

After pondering Li Xiaojun’s question, Songgu Ying replied, "I only know three divine beings equal to the Nuwa saint: the Great Earth Saint, the Great Sage, and the Primordial Saint. These are all recorded in history. There are said to be other saints, but due to the vast passage of time, their names have long since disappeared from history…"

Upon hearing Songgu Ying’s words, Li Xiaojun nodded; he was familiar with Houtu, the Great Sage, and the Primordial Saint.

Since these figures exist, it is very likely that beings like Laozi, Zhunti, and Hongjun are real as well.

However, Li Xiaojun did not understand why only these figures were known to later generations.

"By the way, do you know their stories?" Li Xiaojun asked Songgu Ying.

Songgu Ying thought for a moment, then shook her head before nodding again: "I know the most about the Nuwa saint. It is said that she preserved the bloodlines of the Myriad Tribes during the world-ending disaster ten billion years ago, so all the tribes respect her greatly…"

"The Primordial Saint and the Great Sage are said to have caused the world-ending disaster ten billion years ago. It is said that back then, all the tribes lived in a super-large world called the Primordial World, and the Great Sage and the Primordial Saint had enmity, which led to a great battle. The Great Sage used a peerless artifact to reopen the volcanic fire, resulting in the destruction of the Primordial World…"

"It is said that the Kunlun Realm we inhabit is a fragment of that Primordial World…"

"As for the Great Earth Saint, I don’t know much. I only know she is the ancestor worshipped by both the Ghost Shadow Tribe and the Asura Tribe."
