96: Fuxi, the Tomb Raider

Near Mount Buzhou, two figures followed various Qi currents, heading deep into Mount Buzhou. They were Qing Wu and Fuxi.

After the two finished their Dao Discussion, Fuxi received a message from Nuwa, requesting that he not return for the time being.

She said she wanted to have an in-depth Dao Discussion with Phoenix Sister.

For some reason, Fuxi had the premonition several times that he was about to be abandoned.

As for his sister's request, Fuxi found it almost impossible to refuse.

Nuwa knew this well, which was how she could keep her brother completely under her thumb.

Helpless, Fuxi invited Qing Wu to explore Mount Buzhou together.

To this, Qing Wu readily agreed.

He had already notified Yuan Feng, and it seemed that she and Nuwa were getting along quite well.

This was truly rare, so there was no need to disturb them for now.

Since he was setting foot on Mount Buzhou this time, he sensed many new Qi currents, indicating that Mount Buzhou had refreshed a new round of Opportunity, so he naturally had to go for a walk.

Fuxi's Luck was not bad, and he also specialized in the Dao of Heavenly Secrets, so it was possible they might find some great Opportunity by traveling together.

"Fellow Daoist, please!"

"After you!"

The two exchanged courtesies and headed towards Mount Buzhou together.

After the Calamity, the pressure from the will of Pangu Great God on Mount Buzhou had once again faded significantly.

Ordinary beings could also enter Mount Buzhou and reach some shallow areas to search for Opportunity.

However, to reach the true places of Opportunity, one still needed a certain level of strength.

Two streams of light pierced through the clouds and landed at the foot of Mount Buzhou.

Fuxi held an Eight Trigrams compass, his eyes shining with excitement.

According to him, this compass was refined from a piece of Heavenly Secret Stone he had obtained by chance, and it could sense various subtle Qi currents between heaven and earth.

The needle on the compass swung left and right, pulled by various Qi currents, while Fuxi turned his body left and right, confirming in which direction an Opportunity existed.

Seeing him like this, Qing Wu felt something indescribable.

"The legendary Tomb Raider, this is probably what they look like..."

Fuxi was leading the way and naturally did not hear his muttering. He pointed in a certain direction and said, "Fellow Daoist, look! The Heavenly Secret Compass shows that there is Innate Golden Essence Qi thirty thousand li to the northeast!"

Qing Wu looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a valley shrouded in clouds and mist, where golden light faintly flickered; it was indeed a decent mineral vein.

The two hurried over and indeed saw a stone the size of a fist, with Innate Geng Metal Qi flowing over it.

"It is indeed a good Opportunity; Fellow Daoist, you might as well take it." Qing Wu nodded and smiled, not intending to compete with him.

He and Yuan Feng had already collected too many of these Opportunities, and now he didn't care for them anymore.

Upon hearing this, Fuxi's face showed uncontrollable joy, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist. The purity of this stone is top-notch, enough to refine three golden needles for the compass."

Continuing forward, Fuxi adjusted the compass with great interest.

"Five thousand li to the southwest... there is actually Chaos Qi!"

The two arrived in front of a deep cave, with purple Qi swirling inside.

Fuxi carefully reached in, and before long, he brought out a purple crystal the size of a fist: "Chaos Purple Crystal! This is also an excellent medium for calculating Heavenly Secrets!"

Qing Wu glanced at it and recognized that this was a crystal formed from the remains of Chaos Gods and Demons, which was indeed precious.

But seeing Fuxi acting as if he had found a treasure, he couldn't help but smile.

This master of the Dao of Heavenly Secrets was as excited as an angler who had just found Advanced fishing gear.

He simply let him have it all.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist." Qing Wu said gently, "This item truly complements the Dao of Heavenly Secrets."

In the following journey, for every Opportunity he found, Qing Wu would only comment briefly but never take any.

Fuxi suddenly realized that all the Opportunities along the way had been collected by him.

Being able to have such a harvest was surely due to their combined Luck.

And this Fellow Daoist seemed not to care at all.

Fuxi couldn't help but feel a hint of respect for Qing Wu.

As expected of a Great Power of the Primordial World; having cultivated to this point, external objects could no longer move his heart.

"Is that really so? I shall test it."

Fuxi suddenly smiled mysteriously and intercepted a wisp of Qi from Qing Wu.

He saw that the Qi was incredibly profound, long-standing, and contained a faint golden light.

"This is... the power of Karma."

Although Fuxi was somewhat surprised that this person had already fused Karma into his own Qi, it showed just how profound his Karma was.

But a hidden worry couldn't help but arise in his heart.

Exploring Heavenly Secrets was inherently a task that consumed mental energy; if it also involved the power of Karma, the consumption would likely be even greater.

If this Fellow Daoist carried some incredible great Opportunity, would he suffer some backlash from Heavenly Dao...

After thinking about it, Fuxi decided to go for it.

He crazily urged the compass in his hand, and the needle began to shake violently.

"It seems this Fellow Daoist carries quite a few Opportunities; watch as I find the largest one!"

Fuxi took a deep breath and started to manipulate those Qi currents directly.

Soon, he felt a certain resistance; this was Heavenly Dao preventing him from continuing to explore the Heavenly Secrets.

But, the saying went, the bigger the waves, the more precious the treasure.

He still endured the backlash and continued to deduce.

Until he pulled out that wisp of Qi.

At the same time, Qing Wu also felt something, sensing that a huge Opportunity was about to be born.

"Fellow Daoist, I have discovered..."

Turning his head, he found that Fuxi's face was flushed red, his aura was chaotic, and he was pointing in a certain direction, saying:

"The next place, Fellow Daoist will certainly be interested in."

After saying this, the breath in his chest released; he could no longer suppress it, spat out a mouthful of essence blood, and temporarily passed out.

"What is going on..."

Suddenly vomiting blood without a word, Qing Wu was startled and quickly caught him.

Are you all who play with Heavenly Secrets this crazy?

But seeing that the place Fuxi pointed to differed from the direction he perceived.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to follow his own heart.

Nothing else, just because Fuxi's state made it hard for him to believe he could find any great Opportunity for him.

It was better to rely on his own feelings.

Carrying Fuxi, Qing Wu headed in the direction he had perceived.
