Honghuang: Laozi is the ancestor of earthly immortals

And while Shennong was managing the affairs of the human race day by day, he finally found his own opportunity to prove his truth!

"Although the human race today no longer lacks food and clothing, there is still a huge problem that troubles hundreds of millions of ordinary people and is difficult to solve!"

"I must solve this problem, at all costs!"

Birth, old age, sickness and death!

The ancestors of the tribe all had the most powerful strength, so they almost never got sick and had a long lifespan...

However, as the human race continued to multiply, a large number of ordinary humans gradually appeared. They were not talented, their cultivation progress was slow or even impossible to cultivate...

For these people, birth, old age, sickness and death are undoubtedly huge troubles!

Among them, life and death are not something that the human race can control, but"disease" is not necessarily the case!

Shennong accidentally discovered that in many cases, the human race vomited, had abdominal pain, coma, and even died due to eating certain animals and plants by mistake. Eating certain animals and plants can eliminate or alleviate some of the body's pain or relieve the poisoning caused by eating certain plants. In fishing and hunting life, it was discovered that eating the limbs and internal organs of certain animals can produce special reactions.

The accidental discovery made Shennong fall into deep thought!

"There are thousands of species of plants and animals, each with different properties and flavors, as well as their own functions.……"

"In order to make the tribe strong and free from diseases and poisoning, we must understand what is beneficial and what is harmful!!!

This problem made Shennong toss and turn for several years, and he finally made a major decision: that is,---Taste hundreds of herbs!

Taste hundreds of herbs to distinguish good from bad. Only by knowing the pharmacology and understanding yin and yang can you distinguish their effects!

Will you poison yourself to death...

He is now a Golden Immortal, and is considered a small master in the prehistoric world. Therefore, he is quite confident that he can succeed!

Day after day, Shennong began to take action and really tasted hundreds of herbs. Although he made considerable progress, he also found that his body was corroded and gradually became dilapidated!

After a careful examination, Shennong found the reason. He... was poisoned!!!

Even if most ordinary herbs are not poisonous, they still have some healing effects. Even if there are some toxins, they may not be able to do anything to him. But... the problem happened!

For a long time, those toxins that he ignored and could not cause harm, and even those medicinal effects that could cure diseases, were slowly accumulated in his body, causing the toxicity to increase. Now, it has gradually begun to return his Golden Immortal body!!! All medicines are three-quarters poisonous!

Even medicines for curing diseases may have some subtle toxins.

In addition, with the fusion of many herbs, the alternation of yin and yang, the monarch, ministers and assistants, even Shennong himself did not know how alarming the poison in his body had reached!

However, in Shennong's perception, if he gave up tasting hundreds of herbs for the time being and started to expel the toxins with all his strength, he might be able to recover...

But after thinking it over again and again, Shennong chose to give up. He still continued to taste hundreds of herbs at a high intensity! Not a total of a hundred herbs, but... almost a hundred herbs a day!!!

"Although tasting hundreds of herbs will damage my cultivation and body, it is a life-saving matter for my people! If I can finish it sooner, I can save more people. I must not give up halfway!"

Shennong told himself this...

Until one day, Shennong accidentally ate poisonous herbs again and fell into a coma.

Only then was his tasting of hundreds of herbs finally discovered by his people... At this time, Shennong exuded an old and decadent aura all over his body, with white hair. How could he look like a golden immortal?

Instead, he seemed to be dying at any time...

When the people saw him, they couldn't help but burst into tears! They were moved by Shennong's selfless dedication and the spirit of his people who were willing to sacrifice themselves!

"Finally, it has come to this point.……"

In the ancestral hall, Huang Tian slowly shook his head:"It's time to take action. I'm afraid I'll have to pay some price."

"But... as long as I can become a saint, it won't be a loss!"

Boom!

The emperor is out!

For the first time in thousands of years, he stepped out of the ancestral temple of the human race, and then went all the way to the Tushita Palace...

The Tushita Palace is the territory of the saint Laozi, and Laozi is very good at refining elixirs. When the emperor descended here, the Xuandu master who was originally guarding the elixir furnace suddenly changed his expression, and stood in front of the gate of the Tushita Palace with a vigilant face.……

"Fellow Daoist Huangtian, what is your purpose in coming here?"

""Lend me the Nine Transformations Golden Pill!"

Huang Tian spoke, his eyes clear and steady, without any hesitation or retreat, and directly asked for the Nine Transformations Golden Pill!

"What?"

Master Xuandu was shocked and angry:"The Nine-Transformation Golden Pill is a magical pill that Master collected nine kinds of rare medicines from outer space and spent 9981 years to refine. You want to lend it to me?""

Boom!

" A terrifying wave of air came, and even though Master Xuandu was already a quasi-saint, he was knocked down by the blow.

"You are not qualified to talk to me. Ask your master to come out and you will know whether it will lend you money or not after you try!"

"Alas... Fellow Daoist Huangtian, why are you taking your anger out on the younger generation?"

Laozi smiled bitterly... Then, he appeared beside Huangtian.

"There are still three Nine Revolutions Golden Pills. It’s not a bad idea to give you one, but what do you want to exchange for it?"It

’s not that he was afraid of Huangtian, but he didn’t want to make a big fuss...

Therefore, he implicitly said that as long as Huangtian gave something of equal value, he could exchange it for a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill.

Huangtian naturally had no objection to this. After a brief exchange, he exchanged a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill and returned to the human race...

Buzz...

Huangtian’s sudden appearance made the tribesmen who were originally kneeling beside Shennong almost crawl on the ground and salute him respectfully.

He waved his hand and asked the tribesmen to stand up, then took out the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill that was shining with golden light and looked like a small sun and asked Shennong to take it...

Shennong’s body trembled, and then began to shake violently unconsciously, and then! Countless colorful gases were discharged from his body.

These gases were the toxins accumulated in his body, and now they have turned into poison. The gas was forced out!

The poison gas was forced out! Huang Tian waved his hand, and the power of half his life burst out, instantly annihilating all the poisonous fog, preventing it from escaping and hurting people!

In this matter, the remaining medicinal power of the Nine-Turn Golden Pill continued to play a role.

Soon, Shennong recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even his originally damaged cultivation was quickly restored.

His old and aging face regained his youth and vitality. He even went a step further! He broke through the Golden Immortal realm, followed by the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and finally, he reached the Daluo Golden Immortal realm!

Daluo Golden Immortal!

Only by stepping into this realm can one be qualified to be called a great supernatural power!

Shennong then slowly stopped the breakthrough of his cultivation! He thanked:"Shennong thanks the master for saving me!"

Huang Tian shook his head slowly and said:"The prehistoric world is so big, there are countless plants and trees, even I dare not say that I dare to taste them all!"

"Some herbs born in chaos would be a disaster even for a saint if they accidentally ate them! You are so brave!……"

"This Nine Transformation Golden Pill was exchanged by my master from the Taoist leader! If you take it, it will naturally save your life, but if you do this again, even if you are now a Daluo Jinxian, there will be a day when you will fail!"

"For the sake of the human race, disciples have no choice and are not afraid!"But Shennong spoke firmly and did not back down.

The tribesmen around him were so moved that they burst into tears. Many people begged Shennong to give up, but Shennong was completely unmoved!

Obviously, he had made up his mind!

Huangtian was helpless, but also very relieved.

He naturally knew that this was Shennong's opportunity to prove his truth, but he could not say it clearly, because once it was said, it would not work...

Doing it yourself and being asked to do it by others, even if it is the same thing, the meaning is completely different!

Therefore, Huangtian looked at Shennong with both helplessness and relief.

After thinking for a moment, Huangtian waved his hand and took out a long green whip and handed it to Shennong.

"Since you have such an evil wish, your teacher will help you! This is the Whip of Creation, a treasure of merit refined by the goddess Nuwa, and it is of great use to our human race!"

"You have refined it. Before tasting the herbs, you can use the whip to feel them. You can roughly tell whether they are harmful or not, so you can be prepared when the time comes! You don't need to eat everything and get yourself injured.……"

""Thank you, Master!" Shennong thanked him immediately.

"Thank you, Old Ancestor Huangtian!" All the human race also bowed and thanked.

……

After getting the Creation Whip, Shennong started his journey of tasting hundreds of herbs again.

Now, it is indeed much smoother than before!

Before trying, just whip it with the Creation Whip, and you can roughly tell whether it is harmful. In this way, you can naturally avoid many poisonous herbs...

In addition, now his cultivation has been pushed down to the peak realm of Daluo Jinxian by the Nine-Turn Golden Pill, which is countless times stronger than before, and his resistance to toxicity has also increased a lot. When tasting hundreds of herbs, he will undoubtedly be more handy!

Time passes! Shennong's deeds of tasting hundreds of herbs gradually broke out among the human race and spread thoroughly, directly leading to a deeper respect for Shennong among the human race...

No one can shake his position! No one dares to shake Shennong's position!

In this way, five hundred years have passed... Shennong's footprints are almost all over the prehistoric land!

He has been to high mountains and deep valleys. All the famous mountains and rivers, even lakes and oceans, are far away under his feet...

It was on this day that Shennong finally completed the arduous journey of tasting hundreds of herbs!

After Shennong succeeded to the throne as the co-leader, he moved the capital to Qufu. After successfully tasting hundreds of herbs, Shennong returned to the capital of Qufu and began his retreat that lasted for a hundred years!

"Tasting hundreds of herbs has yielded initial results. The next step is to compile them into a book and distribute them to the human race. Only then can our race be safe!"

This time, the retreat was not to improve cultivation, but to compile a book!

This book is called……《Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica.
