Underneath the Huai River.

Ji Zheng coiled within the silt, his dragon body untouched by filth, remaining immaculate even amidst the mud.

Any impurity would automatically separate upon approaching Ji Zheng.

At this moment, Ji Zheng's gaze was fixed on the screen before him.

He could only remain silent at the words spoken by the Confucian elder.

In his simulation, his initial words to the Confucian elder were nothing more than rambling nonsense.

Yet, the Confucian elder actually believed him.

And even took drastic actions.

Establishing Confucianism and, through unknown means, prematurely reviving Chi You, leading to a battle around Buzhou Mountain.

The purpose was clear.

The Confucian elder sought to destroy the world.

The Confucian elder believed that the path to universal harmony was through the destruction of the world, transforming everyone into ghosts and sending them to the underworld.

But could this truly work…

Ji Zheng did not believe it was feasible.

Humans were the spirit of all things, a part of everything, and an element of nature.

Turning everyone into ghosts was no different from defying the heavens.

Regardless of its feasibility, the Confucian elder's approach was doomed to fail.

Those who defy the great trend are ultimately submerged beneath its torrent.

Like Chi You of the past.

"But, ultimately, the origin of this matter lies with me in the simulation. I cannot escape the matter of mending the heavens."

Ji Zheng was keenly aware of this.

In the previous simulation, his mending of the heavens could be said to stem from protecting all living beings, and from his own inescapable involvement.

Ji Zheng sighed with emotion.

He never imagined that a single sentence could lead to so many complications.

After a moment of contemplation, he continued watching the simulation.

[Day 79: Faced with the seemingly crazed Confucian elder, you fall silent, but soon you begin to persuade him again, invoking the lives of the people, stating that the Confucian elder's desire to destroy the world and turn everyone into ghosts has never been approved by them.

The Confucian elder, upon hearing this, hesitated for a long time, then declared that when universal harmony is achieved, people will understand him.

Seeing that he could not persuade the Confucian elder, you decided to take action, first trapping the Confucian elder, and then trying other methods to see if you could stop the battle near Buzhou Mountain.]

[Day 80: You attempted to capture the Confucian elder to stop him, but you greatly underestimated the Confucian elder's power.

You engaged in battle with the Confucian elder. Although the Confucian elder could not harm you, you could not harm the Confucian elder either.

You reached a stalemate… ]

[Day 81: Unable to defeat the Confucian elder, you were forced to stop fighting because you discovered that the battle near Buzhou Mountain was escalating. Originally, it was only one of the five emperors of humanity fighting Chi You, but as time passed, the battlefield began to expand.

Bai Di Shaohao, and two other beings resembling the Five Emperors, joined the battle. Chi You's side also had capable individuals joining, including some gods… ]

[Day 82: With the expansion of the battle, you were forced to retreat. You gazed at this epic battle, sighing in your heart. You already knew that the collapse of the heavens was probably inevitable… ]

Could it not be salvaged?

Ji Zheng inexplicably had a feeling.

No matter what, the heavens would collapse, perhaps it was a kind of great trend?

Would it be guided in the dark, drawing the battle towards Buzhou Mountain?

Otherwise, why was the battle at Buzhou Mountain before, and now, under the Confucian elder's scheme, Buzhou Mountain was still chosen.

"In the grand scheme of things, the role I play is that of the heaven-mender?"

"Nuwa once said that only I could avert the collapse of the heavens."

Ji Zheng pondered.

If that was the case, it seemed to make sense.

The Dao is the carrier, yin and yang and the five elements are the operation, thus forming the heaven and earth. All things within the heaven and earth are the existence that promotes the operation, and everyone plays a different role.

The so-called fate is also used to explain this theory of the operation of heaven and earth.

Perhaps, in the operation, he has the responsibility of mending the heavens.

Ji Zheng vaguely understood these things.

But he didn't say anything, knowing his identity in the operation of heaven and earth didn't create any different ideas or anything.

Reversing the operation only has disadvantages, there are absolutely no benefits.

"I just don't know what the consequences will be after mending the heavens this time. Could it be that I will still go to the east and transform into a pillar?"

Ji Zheng was thinking.

He was wondering if there would be any new changes in the simulation in the end.

If not, perhaps his simulation would have to end here.

The simulation continued.

[Day 83: The battle at Buzhou Mountain continues, and the intensity of the battle continues to escalate… ]

[Day 86: The gods officially joined the battle. You watched the battle from afar, watching one god after another join the battle.

Among them were gods familiar to you, such as Yinglong, Yingzhao, Lu Wu, Xiwangmu, etc., all in this line.

Undoubtedly, the arrival of so many higher mythologies was to annihilate the top combat power of mankind.

But you already knew the outcome of this war, and naturally couldn't help but sigh… ]

[Day 87: The war continues… ]

[Day 90: This epic battle finally came to an end. As you expected, Chi You crashed into Buzhou Mountain with his life, stopping the gods' plan to encircle and suppress.

Buzhou Mountain was hit, and the sky suddenly tilted towards the northwest, and the ground collapsed towards the southeast. Faced with this situation, you did not go forward to mend the sky immediately, but watched the surroundings.

Soon, you noticed the Confucian elder not far away. When the heaven and earth collapsed, the Confucian elder's face showed ecstasy, as if he believed that the era of universal harmony was about to come.

You shook your dragon head at him, but did not go forward to talk to him.]

[Day 91: When the gods learned that the heaven and earth had collapsed, they quickly left, heading west, obviously preparing to return to the heavens through Kunlun Mountain… ]

The gods return to the heavens…

Ji Zheng could very well understand the actions of the gods.

Although the collapse of Buzhou Mountain was directly related to the gods, the gods chose to ignore the collapsed heaven and earth.

From the information he had obtained, this phenomenon was not surprising.

Most of the gods have hated humans ever since humans began to resist, such as Jinwu, which can almost be said to be a bloody feud.

The gods wish that all human beings would perish, how could they be willing to help humans.

The heaven and earth have collapsed, and the human world has also collapsed, perhaps mankind will perish.

Those gods are probably too happy, how could they choose to help humans.

So, at this time, it was perfectly normal for the gods to choose to leave.

However, speaking of which, the gods could return to the Heavenly Realm, and so could those powerhouses like the Five Emperors.

But the Five Emperors and other powerhouses did not choose to go to the Heavenly Realm.

This is enough to show the hearts of the Five Emperors and many other human powerhouses.

Especially in the last simulation, after he mended the sky, the four pillars of heaven and earth needed support, and the three human emperors willingly chose to transform into pillars.

All of this is enough to show the love and care that the human Five Emperors and other powerhouses have for the human race.

Ji Zheng thought to himself.

The simulation continued.

...

[Day 92, you look at the sky that is still collapsing and the earth that is constantly collapsing, and you finally take action.

The newest novels are first published at 69shuba!

You fly towards the collapsing sky, and under the gaze of the human Five Emperors and other powerhouses, the Confucian elder, countless humans, and demons, you gradually approach the collapsing sky.

After approaching the collapsing sky, you easily begin to peel off the Yang Five Elements from your body...]

...

[Day 94, the peeling of your Yang Five Elements is gradually completed. At this moment, the Yang Five Elements are like five-colored ribbons, surrounding you, filling your dragon body with a sense of mystery.

At this moment, almost all living beings know that you are going to mend the sky, and all living beings are cheering for you.

But you are already used to it. In the state of harmony between man and nature, there is no ripple in your heart. Therefore, you are about to send the Yang Five Elements to the sky immediately.

Just as you were about to act, the Confucian elder anxiously wanted to stop you. Because you had peeled off the Yang Five Elements, you were in a period of weakness. Seeing the arrival of the Confucian elder, you couldn't help but feel a headache.

But before you could do anything, a figure came not far from you. This figure's aura was very calm, giving you a sense of security.

This figure calmly asked you to mend the sky, and said that he represented the entire human race to thank you. If there is anything needed in the future, the entire human race will help you.

Then, this figure told you to mend the sky with peace of mind, and that he would help you block everything. In a few words, you learned that this extremely calm figure was the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, but you didn't have much thought to dwell on this. You began to mend the sky with all your heart.]

[Day 95, you enter the sky with the Yang Five Elements, and with your high level of proficiency, you easily mend the sky.

But as expected, there is no second Buzhou Mountain in the world, and it cannot support the world at all. You look at the three emperors of mankind, but the White Emperor, the Flame Emperor, and the Black Emperor among the five emperors of mankind did not realize your gaze, but began to discuss it.]

[Day 96, the three emperors of mankind finally chose to go to the west, north, and south respectively, preparing to transform into pillars.

Seeing this scene, you couldn't help but sigh in your heart. After taking a nostalgic look at the repaired but still falling sky, you flew towards the east...]

It still came to this point.

Ji Zheng looked at the screen in front of him, and a result was already vaguely in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel regret.

I didn't expect that this simulation would still lead to this result.

In this simulation, he at least became a disciple of the old Taoist.

Although the Confucian elder still caused Buzhou Mountain to collapse, the timing was off. He thought there would be something different.

But he still has to go to the east to transform into a pillar.

This means that his simulation is coming to an end.

Compared with the last simulation, there is not much difference.

But Ji Zheng still hoped that there would be some turning point.

He felt that the possibility of a turning point was not high, but he still had a glimmer of hope.

Ji Zheng continued to look at the simulation with a hint of expectation.

...

[Day 98, you arrive at the center of the east. After seeing a white beam of light rising in the west, a black beam of light rising in the north, and a red beam of light rising in the south, you immediately prepare to forcibly lift the Jia wood, transform into a pillar, support the east, and allow the four directions of the world to stand.

Just as you were about to transform into a pillar, the old Taoist riding a water buffalo slowly approached you in front of you.

Looking at the arrival of the old Taoist, a glimmer of hope surged in your heart. After seeing you, the old Taoist smiled and said that you had done very well, and then said that the next thing would be left to him.

Under your gaze, the old Taoist slowly picked up a branch from the ground, and then the old Taoist gently threw it forward. The branch grew against the wind, and soon grew to millions of feet, completely turning into a pillar.

At the same time as this pillar was erected, a green beam of light also rose in the east. Soon, the four directions of the world were set, and you successfully survived...]

Actually survived?

Didn't die?

Ji Zheng was pleasantly surprised.

Originally, he was ready for the simulation to end.

I didn't expect to be told now that he didn't die and the simulation didn't end.

The old Taoist actually saved him.

Is it because he became a disciple of the old Taoist?

Ji Zheng thought about it, and felt that it was unlikely.

The old Taoist treats everything with a normal heart, and even advocates following nature.

It is impossible to say that he ran over to save him because of the relationship between master and apprentice.

More likely, it was because he was recognized by the old Taoist.

Mending the sky!

Because of mending the sky, he was recognized by the old Taoist.

It is estimated that it was also because he was prepared to sacrifice himself and transform into the pillar of the east.

But without a doubt, he was recognized by the old Taoist.

That's why the old Taoist came to save him.

Surviving from mending the sky, where will the next simulation develop?

Ji Zheng widened his dragon eyes and looked at the simulation.

...

[After you survived, you looked at the old Taoist for the first time, but the old Taoist seemed to know what you wanted to say, and waved his hand with a smile, asking you to recover from your injuries first.

Then, the old Taoist took you to a cave and asked you to recuperate in it. You naturally listened to the old Taoist.]

[Day 99, you start to recuperate, and you find that the Yang Five Elements in your body are almost dry, but there is still a trace of residue. You start to accumulate the Yang Five Elements, preparing to restore the Yang Five Elements.]

[Day 100, you continue to work hard to restore the Yang Five Elements...]

...

[Day 150, you are still working hard to restore the Yang Five Elements...]

Restoring the Yang Five Elements, is it so difficult?

What he lost was the foundation?

Ji Zheng suddenly realized this.

The Yang Five Elements are the foundation after his evolution.

Isn't he damaging his foundation by mending the sky with the Yang Five Elements?

But what about the goddess Nüwa in mythology?

Could it be that the goddess Nüwa also damaged her foundation?

Ji Zheng was a little dazed, he seemed to understand why Nüwa could not mend the sky...
