"Of course, in order to prevent them from turning back against us in the future, I will establish a covenant with them. If they deviate from their original intentions, they will surely suffer the backlash of the Great Dao, doomed to endless calamity."
"Secondly, 'Contention of a Hundred Schools!'"
Fu Xi continued, "The potential of the Human Race lies in its infinite possibilities and creativity. I don't want the future of the Human Race to have only one voice, one thought, one cultivation system."
"I hope, in the process of the Human Race's development, there will be a plethora of doctrines, schools, and traditions emerging!"
"Seekers of the Dao may pursue eternal life, roaming freely across heaven and earth."
"Those focusing on physical cultivation can strive to shatter ten thousand methods with strength, with indestructible bodies."
"Those studying techniques may innovate mechanical techniques, alchemy, and artifact making to improve people's lives."
"Those who perceive the heavens and earth may deduce celestial phenomena, create calendars, and explore the mysteries of nature."
"Educators of the masses can establish words and virtues, spread wisdom, and enlighten the people."
"I hope that the era in which the future Human Race finds itself is an era of 'let a hundred flowers bloom, let a hundred schools of thought contend'!"
"And the Netherworld can guide this in terms of reincarnation."
"For instance, for those human spirits who have made outstanding contributions in certain fields during their lifetime, the Underworld can preserve part of their talents and memories upon their reincarnation, enabling them to achieve success more quickly in related fields, thereby promoting the transmission and development of civilization."
"Even for those sages who have made exceptional contributions on different civilizational paths, we can jointly canonize them as 'Sages of the Human Dao', receiving sacrifices from the Human Race, so that their spirit and wisdom continually manifest among future generations through reincarnation, guiding the Human Race's civilization ever forward!"
This concept of 'Contention of a Hundred Schools' and 'Sages of the Human Dao' was met with nods from the Netherworld Gods.
This was not merely about enhancing the strength of the Human Race; it was about laying an immensely broad and deep foundation for the future of the entire Human civilization!
"Thirdly, 'Calamity of Merit'!"
Fu Xi's tone grew even more profound and solemn, "The great rise of the Human Race will undoubtedly be accompanied by infinite merit, but it may also provoke a new calamity."
"I hope that the Human Race will not repeat the mistakes of the Innate Three Clans and the Fierce Beast Clan, heading towards decline."
"I wish to establish a mechanism of 'Calamity of Merit'."
Nuwa elaborated on the essence of this plan, "Reversal, the motion of the Dao!"
"Simply put, the Calamity of Merit is a dynamic balance and transformation between the merit generated during the development of the Human Race and the potential disasters it might cause."
"For example, when significant internal conflicts arise within the Human Race, or when it faces threats from a powerful external enemy, a portion of the accumulated human merit can be transformed through certain rituals or mechanisms into a force to resist calamities or into opportunities to dissolve internal conflicts."
"Through self-reformation, in the form of self-Dao reversal, contradictions within the race can be resolved."
After detailing the internal handling, Nuwa then turned her gaze towards Xuanqing:
"And the Netherworld, as the master of life and death, is the place to discern merits and faults, and can play an important role as 'arbitrator' and 'executor' in this mechanism."
"Through the judgment and guidance of reincarnation, those who have made great merits to the Human Race can receive protection, and even at critical moments, tap into the power of human merit to resolve crises; whereas those who have committed great sins against the Human Race will face severe punishment, perhaps never to be reincarnated, serving as a warning to others."
"In this way, it can both encourage the Human Race to progress and accumulate merit positively and effectively resolve potential crises and calamities, allowing the civilization of the Human Race to continue for long, in a healthy and orderly manner."
Xuanqing and the Ghost Emperors listened attentively to the plan described by the siblings.
Especially the final point, the self-reforming 'Calamity of Merit'.
Quantifying and transforming the seemingly intangible merits and calamities in such a concrete manner was a brand new interpretation and application of the operation of the Heavenly Dao!
If this could truly be realized, the future of the Human Race would possess unimaginable resilience and vitality!
The siblings finished elaborating their three core visions for the future development of the Human Dao in one go.
Then they sat quietly, waiting for the response of the Netherworld Gods.
The entire Fengdu Hall fell into a long silence.
The gods of the Netherworld originally thought that Fu Xi and Nuwa simply wanted to secure some survival space and development resources for the Human Race, perhaps to even entangle the Chaos Demon God.
They never imagined that these two Daoists had such profound plans for the future of the Human Dao!
It appeared not to be a spontaneous idea but rather a thoroughly planned scheme!
"The Spark Plan… Contention of a Hundred Schools… Calamity of Merit…"
In the mist-covered eyes of Xuanqing, there seemed to be endless star rivers circulating, rapidly deducing the feasibility and far-reaching impact of these three grand visions.
The five "Ghost Emperors" below them displayed varied expressions.
The horsetail whisk in Taishang's hand had stopped swaying at some indistinct moment, and for the first time, his calm eyes sparkled with keen interest.
The smile on Daoist Lord Yu Chen's face also turned meaningful as he nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with some of Fu Xi's viewpoints.
He appeared to be very interested in the blueprint painted by Fu Xi and Nuwa.
"The part about Contention of a Hundred Schools and teaching according to one's aptitude indeed aligns with my own inclinations," Daoist Lord Yu Chen thought.
Meng Wuyou's formerly lazy demeanor had vanished; she sat upright with her beautiful eyes shimmering brilliantly.
"Xixi Daoist is really amazing, not losing out to Panpan Daoist at all!"
Although Houtu was registered on the side of the Netherworld, her capacity for causing mischief was uniquely unmatched in the Primordial world.
