Chapter 259: #259 - Chapter 259 Caught the Successful Mother

The arrival of the Holy Emperor Palace in the world has been a month now. During this month, the number of human cultivators has experienced an explosive growth, fully fifty percent more than before. This is a terrifying figure. The reason for such an achievement is all thanks to Houtu connecting the Ancestral God Temple to the major cities of the human race in the universe. Although no one has yet appeared who can inherit the Ancestral God's inheritance, there are countless cultivation methods in the Inheritance Temple. Even if one cannot obtain the Ancestral God's inheritance, there is a chance to obtain other inheritances.

It is only with the support of the human race's massive population base that such an explosive growth rate can occur. However, this data will soon gradually decline. After all, each member of the human race has a maximum of only twelve chances. Once they are used up, and they are deemed to have no cultivation talent, they cannot become cultivators, and these people make up the vast majority.

Explosive growth will only occur in the initial stage. If you want to reproduce this terrifying growth rate, you can only wait for Houtu's plan to unify the human race of the heavens to begin.

On this day, Houtu rarely put down everything, but instead of rushing to explore the reincarnation of the mortal world, she approached Gu Changsheng.

Gu Changsheng was in his elegant little courtyard, playing with some seemingly ordinary things. When Houtu walked into the courtyard, her face darkened. This lazy fellow was actually brewing wine.

"Oh, a rare guest, Lady Houtu!" When Gu Changsheng saw Houtu, a teasing smile appeared on his face. The name of Lady Houtu has completely spread throughout the universe. At first, everyone thought that the "Lady" in Lady Houtu was related to the Holy Emperor, but after the explanation and dissemination by some people with ulterior motives, plus the stone tablet information in front of the twelve Ancestral God statues, countless people knew that Houtu was one of the twelve Ancestral Gods, a supreme existence beyond immortals.

Originally, Houtu thought that after the human race learned of her identity, they would have unparalleled respect for her. The fact was as she expected. It is true that the human race respects her very much, but their worship of the Holy Emperor has increased more than just one level.

The human race's thinking is very simple. Even an existence beyond immortals is just the Holy Emperor's spokesperson, so wouldn't the Holy Emperor be even stronger?

With this thought, countless human races' worship of Gu Changsheng has reached an irreversible level. Even those top powerhouses no longer have any resistance in their hearts, and the power of faith generated is even more pure than at the beginning. According to Houtu's expectations, it would take thousands or even tens of thousands of years for the Holy Emperor Palace to evolve into a faith tool at the Breaking Dao level, but now, it can become a Breaking Dao-level faith tool within three thousand years.

Although it is a fact that Gu Changsheng is stronger, Houtu is very unhappy. She is very depressed. No matter what she does, the ultimate benefit is Gu Changsheng's. Until now, not a single point of faith has been generated for her, which makes her quite depressed.

Now, hearing Gu Changsheng's teasing, Houtu snorted lightly and said, "Holy Emperor, you are so elegant. You even know how to brew wine. I heard that if the emperors of the human world were like you, they would be labeled as playful and incompetent after death."

How could Gu Changsheng not know that she was deliberately implying that he was lazy? He smiled and said, "I am different from those human emperors. I won't die."

"..." Houtu was speechless. Are you tacitly admitting that you are playful and incompetent? How can you be like this? Houtu felt that her verbal attack had hit cotton, and it didn't cause any damage at all. She didn't expect Gu Changsheng to admit it tacitly.

Once again, Houtu witnessed Gu Changsheng's thick skin.

"Come, have a taste!" Gu Changsheng took a ladle and scooped a little wine and handed it to Houtu. Houtu didn't refuse. She took the ladle and took a sip, her brows slightly furrowed.

"What's wrong?" Gu Changsheng asked.

"What did you put in this? The taste is so weird," Houtu asked.

"Oh, I put a little chili pepper in it. I thought it wasn't spicy enough," Gu Changsheng said. After he finished speaking, Gu Changsheng also took a sip, and then he decisively spit it out.

"You drank it even though it was so bad?" Gu Changsheng asked.

Houtu ignored his words and said, "I'm thinking it's time to take those little Supreme beings from the forbidden areas to become immortals. Do you want to come with me?"

Houtu's topic change was very abrupt, but there was no embarrassment on her face. Gu Changsheng didn't dwell on the wine issue.

"It seems I have to come back to continue improving my recipe," Gu Changsheng said regretfully, looking at the brewing tools in front of him.

"The taste of failure is not good, is it?" Houtu said with a smile.

Gu Changsheng shook his head and said, "This is my first time brewing wine. Failure is what I wanted. As the saying goes, failure is the mother of success. I have caught its mother first. I don't believe success won't come by itself. If it doesn't come, I will convict it of being unfilial in the name of the Holy Emperor."

"You..." Houtu didn't know what to say.

"What am I?" Gu Changsheng asked.

"You... are really shameless." In the end, Houtu could only say such a non-offensive sentence.

"I'll take that as you praising me!" Gu Changsheng said with a chuckle, and asked, "Have you thought about which world to take them to?"

Speaking of the development of the human race, Houtu was no longer arguing with Gu Changsheng. Instead, she said, "When traveling through the heavens and myriad worlds, I found several worlds near the Mortal World. One world called the Yuanyang World is the weakest. Perhaps it is because that little guy named Ye Hongchen was too heaven-defying, and he attracted the luck of the surrounding worlds to himself, causing the surrounding worlds to have few strong people. The Yuanyang World is the weakest, with only eight Immortal King experts."

"And two of these eight Immortal Kings are from the human race. We can just take them in and unify the human race in the Yuanyang World, killing three birds with one stone!"

Speaking of matters related to the development of the human race, Houtu seemed to have become a different person. Her entire temperament changed, like a high-ranking empress, pointing out the country and full of spirit.

Gu Changsheng looked at Houtu and was ashamed. This old woman doesn't know how old she is, but she still has such a big official addiction. Fortunately, he is in the heavens and myriad worlds to suppress Houtu. If he didn't, the heavens and myriad worlds would probably be tortured to death by her.

"Since you have already chosen a place, let's go."

Gu Changsheng said.

"Okay!"

Houtu nodded, and then she and Gu Changsheng took those Supreme beings from the forbidden areas and left the Mortal World to the Yuanyang World that Houtu mentioned.

At this time, the Yuanyang World is facing a world-destroying crisis.

Three days ago, five flying boats broke through the world barrier and brazenly entered the Yuanyang World. After they descended, a super formation suddenly enveloped the entire Yuanyang World, preventing people from entering or leaving.

After that, they frantically plundered the Yuanyang World's source crystal veins, and the eight Immortal Kings, seeing that the situation was not good, joined forces, but three of them died in battle, and five were injured and fled.

In just three days, more than half of the Yuanyang World's source crystal veins have been plundered, causing the concentration of heaven and earth spiritual energy in the Yuanyang World to drop by 80%.

In a few days, the Yuanyang World will be devoured and completely usher in the end of the Dharma era.
