Chapter 1304: Chapter 566: Refine the Chaos Bell and Rescue Nuwa!
"Little fellow."
Nuwa was filled with countless emotions, her eyes full of amazement. "Your fortune is truly astonishing."
"Judging by your appearance, you’re not even a thousand years old, yet you already possess such powerful strength, and you even carry two Innate Treasures."
"Hong Jun’s Qiankun Cauldron has now fallen into your hands as well. You... could it be that you are someone personally chosen by Pangu God?"
Nuwa fixed her gaze on Zhao Feng, a probing look in her eyes.
As a Saint, even though she was still gravely wounded and not yet recovered, her vision and insight remained extraordinary. Moreover, she mainly cultivated the Creation Path, and her perception of living beings was especially keen.
"This junior is also only where I am today thanks to the protection of Pangu God."
Zhao Feng replied humbly.
Though there was a bit of pretext in these words, they were not completely false.
After all, the three Daos of Heaven, Earth, and Human were all left behind by Pangu God. Once Zhao Feng obtained the power of Human Dao, his strength advanced by leaps and bounds; this was an indisputable fact.
"No wonder."
Nuwa came to a sudden realization, lightly nodding as the doubt in her eyes completely dispersed.
After that.
Nuwa’s gaze shifted to the Qiankun Cauldron at the side, and then she sniffed the lingering Nectar aura in the Divine Hall that had yet to fully dissipate. In an instant, she understood how she had been rescued and awakened, and she knew that all of this was Zhao Feng’s doing.
"I must thank Daoist Friend for extending your hand to save me this time."
Nuwa’s expression was sincere. She cupped her hands slightly and bent in a deep bow toward Zhao Feng. "If not for Daoist Friend, I might have been trapped forever in that dark, sunless space, never to see the day of escape."
Having escaped her confinement, no longer needing to endure that endless solitude and torment of sleep — for Nuwa, this was undoubtedly a form of release.
"Holy Mother, you flatter me. Speaking of it, this junior is also of the Human Race, and you are the Human Race Saint Mother."
Zhao Feng hurriedly turned to the side, avoiding Nuwa’s grand礼, and returned the gesture with cupped hands as well, speaking with genuine sincerity.
"Within the Primordial, status is determined by bloodline and strength."
Nuwa wore a faint smile, yet her expression held a certain solemnity. "Daoist Friend bears the bloodline of Pangu, and your Bloodline Power far surpasses mine. To call you ’Daoist Friend’—you are fully deserving."
"Furthermore, I see that Daoist Friend has already reached the realm of Quasi-Saint Great Perfection. Once the time comes, you can prove the Dao of Primordial and achieve the Supreme Saint Position. In the future, you will certainly be one of the pinnacle experts of the Primordial."
"This form of address, ’Daoist Friend’, is naturally something you can bear."
"What’s more, a life-saving grace cannot be settled with a mere word of thanks."
Nuwa’s words were filled with gratitude and recognition toward Zhao Feng.
"In that case, this junior will not decline out of false modesty and will accept this form of address." Zhao Feng nodded with a smile, ultimately accepting it calmly.
After all, this truly was one of the rules of the Primordial: strength is revered.
"The grace of today, I will never forget." Nuwa emphasized once again, her gaze firm, as if she were making a vow in her heart.
At this moment—
Zhao Feng suddenly changed the topic, a look of curiosity on his face as he asked, "Daoist Friend! Back then, why did Hong Jun want to strike you down so viciously? Was it solely because you acted to save the Human Race?"
Upon hearing this.
"It seems Taiqing has really told you quite a bit about what happened back then."
Nuwa let out a slight sigh, a desolate look flashing across her face, along with a resentment that refused to yield. "Even this matter, he explained to you."
"However, it’s better that you don’t know these things."
"Although Hong Jun is a Chaos Demon God, he has now seized control of the Heavenly Dao, and his strength is unfathomable."
"The hatred between him and me can no longer be resolved, but I don’t wish for you to be drawn into it. He is far too powerful." Nuwa’s expression was utterly serious, her brows tightly knit, her eyes full of dread toward Hong Jun.
Clearly!
In Nuwa’s heart, Zhao Feng was her savior. She understood Hong Jun’s terrifying nature all too well and did not wish for Zhao Feng to fall into peril because of her, so her words were earnest as she urged him not to meddle in this matter.
"Daoist Friend."
Zhao Feng smiled faintly, his expression carrying a hint of fearlessness and a coldness toward Hong Jun. "Hong Jun has long since set his sights on me."
"In order to kill me, he has even descended Heavenly Punishment multiple times. So, Daoist Friend, there is no need to conceal anything; just tell me all that you know."
Zhao Feng’s expression was calm as he directly told Nuwa of his current situation.
Upon hearing this, Nuwa’s face instantly showed a look of shock. Her eyes widened as she exclaimed in disbelief, "Why would Hong Jun descend Heavenly Punishment to deal with you?"
"Moreover, although Hong Jun has already completed Integration with the Dao, the deployment of Heavenly Dao power must still follow the Heavenly Dao Rules. How can he casually wield Heavenly Punishment?"
Clearly, Nuwa’s understanding was still stuck at the time before she was imprisoned; she knew very little of the present transformations in the Primordial Heaven and Earth.
"The current Heavenly Dao is likely already under Hong Jun’s complete control. He can fully manipulate the power of the Heavenly Dao at will, driven by his own selfish desires." Zhao Feng’s expression grew solemn as he spoke in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this!
Nuwa’s face became exceedingly grim in an instant, murmuring, "So it has come to such a state?"
Nuwa’s face was serious, her heart filled with shock and apprehension. "In that case, doesn’t it mean that Hong Jun’s strength has already reached the Heavenly Dao Realm?"
In her mind, the terrifying strength Hong Jun once possessed surfaced immediately. At that time, he had not yet fully seized control of the Heavenly Dao; now that he had complete control, how powerful would his strength have grown?
This filled Nuwa with a deep chill.
"Daoist Friend, there is no need to worry." Seeing the anxiety on Nuwa’s face, Zhao Feng hurriedly spoke to reassure her. "Though Hong Jun is strong, he is still not a match for the Taiching Saint."
"These years, Hong Jun has continuously been suppressed by the Taiching Saint..."
Zhao Feng did not hide anything, recounting in full the current situation in the Primordial, as well as the struggle between Taiqing and Hong Jun.
Upon hearing this, Nuwa was stunned rigid on the spot, her face filled with disbelief as she stared fixedly at Zhao Feng, unable to speak for a long while.
Only after a long time did Nuwa murmur to herself, "I never imagined that Taiqing’s strength would have grown to such an extent."
"Even Hong Jun is not his match."
Zhao Feng naturally found Nuwa’s astonishment unsurprising.
That Taiqing’s strength was formidable was not only beyond Nuwa’s imagination.
How many in the entire Primordial knew that Taiqing could suppress Hong Jun?
"So, Daoist Friend, if you wish for revenge, there is no need to worry too much."
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Feng’s mouth, his eyes full of resolve and determination. "In the future, the main force dealing with Hong Jun will be the Taiching Saint."
"And I will devote myself wholly to resisting the Heavenly Dao power under Hong Jun’s control."
"One day, we will certainly suppress Hong Jun completely and kill him!"
In the future.
The battle with Hong Jun is destined to occur.
Furthermore.
Hong Jun had repeatedly tried to put him to death—how could Zhao Feng not repay this?
