Chapter 473 The Grandmaster of Heaven is Online…
The moment he said that, the weather changed. The pressure of a Saint stopped for a moment. The image of a Saint immediately revealed some anger. Yu Ding and Huang Long frowned and smiled bitterly. Duobao and Gongming focused their gaze. Fairy Yun Xiao looked at Li Changshou worriedly. Jin Ling, Kong Xuan… almost laughed out loud. Yu Ding and Huang Long frowned and smiled bitterly. Duobao and Gongming focused their gaze. Fairy Yun Xiao looked at Li Changshou worriedly. Jin Ling, Kong Xuan… almost laughed out loud. Some Zenith Heaven Immortals gritted their teeth. Some Golden Immortals were enraged. The personal disciples of the Saints were furious. They could not wait to attack immediately and kill the red-robed male immortal who was protected by the treasures. At that moment, Perfected Taiyi had already realized that his words were a little lethal. Although he had indeed shouted them out “straightforwardly”, it was too ear-piercing for a Saint. More importantly, his words gave Zhun Ti a chance to fly into a rage. Previously, Li Changshou had appeared and said a whole set of words. He was actually very particular. He had set up the rhythm of the entire scene by himself and threw a few huge hats on him to force him to appear.
No matter what schemes he had, most of the Saints had already lost. Zhun Ti originally wanted to use the position of the Saint to suppress Li Changshou under the spiritual mountain for a thousand years. This method of dealing with Li Changshou was also secretly scheming. It gave him a way out and also left a sufficient “buffer” between the Grand Pure One and the spiritual mountain.
As long as the Grand Pure One spoke, no, as long as the Grand Pure One appeared, Zhun Ti would hand Li Changshou back in one piece and even take the initiative to apologize. However, by using that matter, Ren School would not be able to stop the Western Sect from building the second round!
Li Changshou was good at doing things. Naturally, he had already predicted that possibility. That was why he had invited eight experts and various treasures to help. He had originally thought that if they really fought, he would temporarily lend the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and the Cosmic Ruler to his quasi-master, Kong Xuan. He would let Kong Xuan rely on the Five-colored Divine Light, the side of the Taiji Painting, and the help of the experts from various factions to fight with Saint Zhun Ti. As long as he could force Zhun Ti to not attack or raise his hand, he would not be able to take down the nine “juniors” for a while. That would be Zhun Ti losing today. In other words, the Western Sect had lost. They completely occupied the initiative and could force the Western Sect to destroy the Reincarnation Pagoda. At the very least, he could make the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom of the Western Sect fail to complete the second reincarnation system without a huge battle.
Everything was originally on track with Li Changshou. He did not even hesitate to pretend to be crazy. He did not care about his pride in front of Fairy Yun Xiao and used his clumsy acting skills to use the defensive treasure to gain Hatred Points from the Western Sect.
Unexpectedly…
He really did not expect it! Perfected Taiyi was the last to appear. With just two words, he handed the initiative to Saint Zhun Ti to decide if he should flare up.
Li Changshou was rendered speechless. If this was in his previous life when he was in school, he would have started shouting into the headset!
“Who set up this Holy Light Sub-Questane!?!?!?!?!?!”
“What? It’s from my own team?”
“Tsk, that’s fine.”
There were two sides to everything. Although the tempo was disrupted by Perfected Taiyi, the other party’s hatred had clearly shifted to him. Elegant and easy-going, Zhen Taiyi. He was frank and straightforward.
“Ah.”
Li Changshou sighed and bowed to Perfected Taiyi before the other party could attack. “Senior Brother, please forgive me. Senior Brother, please forgive me. I used the Taiji Painting to teleport between the heaven and earth previously. I don’t know why I bumped into this place. The environment is a little bad. Let’s find a good place and have a drink later.” At that moment, Perfected Tai Yi, who was pale and trying his best to hold on, looked at Li Changshou gratefully and hurriedly said, “Yes, yes. Can we drink in this lousy place? It’s so polluted!”
Crack!
A huge hand attacked from behind and slapped Perfected Taiyi’s mouth with lightning speed. Perfected Yu Ding attacked in time and sealed his mouth with immortal power. Perfected Yu Ding said, “…My master, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning.” Perfected Huang Long, who was at the side, looked around vigilantly. He was afraid that the people of the Western Sect could not help but attack and start a huge battle. Li Changshou really did not dare to give Perfected Taiyi another chance to speak. At that moment, he could only deliberately reveal a flaw and dig a hole in himself to bring the topic back to the Reincarnation Pagoda.
If he did not know that Perfected Taiyi was like that, Li Changshou would have really suspected that he had “bought” Taiyi.
He had to form the team.
The surrounding disciples of the Western Sect had already regained their senses. They took out their Dharma treasures and prepared their immortal powers. They were prepared to fight with all their might. Li Changshou remained calm and continued, “Uncle-Master, did you just say that you want to suppress me on the spiritual mountain? Did you also say that I don’t respect Saints? I wonder if Uncle-Master… has any evidence?”
“How dare you!”
An old Daoist priest who was near the Saint’s feet shouted angrily, “You are still talking back to my teacher. How dare you say that you respect Saints?” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, your words are a little unreasonable. I’m just stating facts and being reasonable with you, Aunt-Master. Perhaps it’s because the Western Sect has great rules, but I don’t dare to say anything when I see Teacher. I have to figure out the intentions of the Saint at all times.”
“The Ren School is naturally more casual. When my teacher first invited me to the Grand Pure One Temple, I was only three feet away from him. My teacher was reasonable and chatty with me. He told me some ancient stories. It was a good experience. Are you all saying that I’m not a Saint? I swear hereby that if I show any disrespect to Teacher, I will be punished by the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder!”
At that moment, a bolt of lightning flashed in the sky. Rich Heavenly Dao power descended and illuminated Li Changshou’s figure, who was hiding among the experts on his side. Li Changshou smiled and said, “I keep the Saint in my heart, I don’t talk about him all the time.”
Ksitigarbha chuckled. “Could it be that only Uncle-Master Taiqing is a Saint in the eyes of the Water God? Why don’t we each swear an oath?”
After digging the hole, someone jumped in. At that moment, the immortals in the square did not notice it. Li Changshou had already led them astray. Li Changshou deliberately took another step back. “Daoist Ksitigarbha, your words are a little harsh. Daoist Ksitigarbha, do you dare to swear that you don’t respect the three Saints of the Dao Sect at all?”
Ksitigarbha’s eyes narrowed slightly. He sat on Truth Listener’s back and slowly walked forward. He was in high spirits. His eyes shone as he said loudly, “The Water God is afraid. He must be feeling strange. In that case, my teacher will punish you for not respecting the Saint. How can you deny it? Teacher is merciful. He won’t hit you or kill you. He just wants to suppress you under the spiritual mountain. A thousand years is just a snap of the fingers for immortals. Yet, you retreat from both sides and you’re upset with my teacher. You don’t respect him too. I should persuade Teacher to suppress you for a thousand years!”
Li Changshou frowned. He seemed to have emptied his bullets.
Zhao Gongming, who was at the side, looked at Li Changshou as if he wanted to attack. Li Changshou pursed his lips. In order to fight, he had to ensure that his side was right and that they would not suffer losses. That was on the premise that the three Saints of the Dao Sect could attack logically. Li Changshou chuckled and sighed.
“I thought that Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha would definitely have a wise opinion, I didn’t expect it to be so-so.”
Ksitigarbha frowned slightly. The eyes of the old Daoists near the feet of Daoist Zhun Ti shone slightly.
Li Changshou looked at Fairy Yun Xiao beside him and gave her a reassuring look. Then, he took two steps towards Ksitigarbha and walked towards Perfected Huang Long. “Daoist Brother Ksitigarbha, do you still remember how we drank and chatted happily when we fought the otherworldly demons? We were very happy.” Ksitigarbha gritted his teeth and cursed, “Water God, your nonsense is really admirable! When will I drink and chat happily with you!?!”
“It’s fine, it’s fine. I know that you’re shy.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “I’ve already said that the word ‘Supremacy’ is not a way to interpret it.”
“When did you say that?”
“Have you forgotten, Daoist Ksitigarbha? That’s not important. I’ll say it again.” Li Changshou smiled and looked at the many disciples of the Saint. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda appeared above his head, and the Taiji Painting behind him flickered.
He shouted loudly and gradually sped up. “The Saint of Ten Thousand Spirits is known for his remarkable abilities and profound Dao realm. He is the strongest expert in the world.
This is because he is afraid. Do you and I, the disciples of the Saint, respect Saints out of fear? No, that’s naturally different. The disciples of the Dao Sect respect the Saint’s elegant character and magnanimity in the Three Realms. They respect the Saint’s transcendence and unrestrained nature. They respect the Saint’s profound Dao realm and the fact that they are at the pinnacle of living beings.
The Dao Ancestor had set the origins of the Dao. The teachers of the Saints had imparted our Dao to you because they were teaching you how to be a living being. The respect I have for the two Uncle-Masters of the Western Sect originates from the respect I have for the two Aunt-Masters in the Dao Realm, and from myself. How can you say that I’m not respectful? I just have some immature opinions.”
“How dare you!” An old Daoist priest shouted angrily, “Li Changgeng, you’re so brazen. How dare you criticize my teacher’s character!?!” Li Changshou turned around and saw an indescribable dignity.
The light from the treasure was even more dazzling. He turned around and shouted angrily, “You’re the brazen one! How dare you treat the character of a Saint as your spear and shield! Do you still care about Uncle-Master Zhun Ti? Do you still care about your own Saint? My teacher once said that in ancient times, the two Saints of the Western Sect had made a great wish.
The Heavenly Dao was originally heartless, but it was touched by the grand wishes of the two Saints. It bestowed great merit and made the two Saints become Saints.
How noble and pure was that! What about you guys?! You disciples of the Saints of the Western Sect have deceived everyone and committed all kinds of evil deeds. You have brazenly ruined the reputation of the two Uncle-Masters! When you see a treasure, you take it by force.
When you see a talent, you say that you are fated with him. You can say that the demons secretly raised ancient negative karma demons. For the sake of the precious materials, you resort to unscrupulous means. They attacked the Sea Eye guarded by the dragon race and caused the living beings of the four seas to suffer!”
An old Daoist priest cursed, “Nonsense! Water God, don’t slander us!”
“Leave everything to the Heavenly Dao.” Li Changshou raised his hand and made an inviting gesture. “If you say that these are not done by the disciples of the Western Saints, please swear a Great Dao oath!
If Heavenly Dao said that you did not do it, I will kneel down and apologize to you today!” Ksitigarbha sneered and said, “Does the Water God have any other moves apart from the Great Dao oath?”
“I know.” Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and smiled. “This is called conquering everything in one move. Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, if you’re unhappy, you can think of a way to crack it.”
“Brother, you’re wrong.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “I don’t have any tricks. I just have extreme trust in the Heavenly Dao and respect it. The Heavenly Dao is impartial and only wants the world to be stable. Therefore, I did not hesitate when the Heavenly Dao said that he owed me a sum of merit. I trust the Heavenly Dao.” The immortals from the Dao Sect tilted their heads and were confused.
Kong Xuan was puzzled. “Can the Heavenly Dao owe merit to living beings?”
“You can’t say that they owe it.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “It’s just a delay.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard thunder above his head. A palm-sized gray cloud condensed above Li Changshou’s head and smashed down a strand of Purple Heaven Divine Thunder that was as thick as a strand of hair. The Taiji Painting and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda did not stop it. The small bolt of lightning struck Li Changshou’s forehead, causing him to shiver.
The bottom of the sea of blood fell silent again.
Compared to the previous Saints, the Grand Unity was different. It had been quiet twice, but this time…
Almost all the experts of the Western Sect looked confused and shocked.
The joking Little Thunderbolt… Is the Heavenly Dao standing up for the Water God?
The Heavenly Dao owed the Water God merit. The Water God had said that in front of everyone because he had been touched by the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder!
Is this really the World-Extinguishing Lightning that even quasi-sages are afraid of?
Li Changshou was greatly relieved. He sorted out the logic in his words and shouted again, “Uncle-Master Zhun Ti, take a look! Now, the vermin of the Western Sect had deceived two Uncle-Masters here.
They said that reincarnation is for the sake of all living beings in the world, but in reality, they are only trying to consolidate their respective divine kingdoms! Are they doing this for the Western Sect?
No, they are just relying on your protection to absorb the blood of mortals and imprison the souls of mortals. They can use this to cultivate and transcend the tribulation to become mighty figures! Also, there is a traitor who plotted against the Dao Sect on the spiritual mountain last time and sowed discord between the three sects. Aunt-Master, you personally gave the order that the spiritual mountain would be sealed for a thousand years. What about now?! The spiritual mountain is empty?
The disciples of the Western Sect are the ones who did not respect the Saint. They are the ones who are truly a burden to the Western Sect! Uncle-Master Zhun Ti!” Li Changshou looked furious and shouted, “I really can’t take it anymore! I’m so bold today. Please watch from the sidelines.
I’ll teach them a lesson with my senior brothers and senior sisters from the Dao Sect!”
Pfff…
It was not a laugh. Instead, the vision of a disciple of a Saint beside him turned black and he spat out blood.
The image of Saint Zhun Ti increased the pressure. At that moment, he was naturally not shocked or angry.
“Have you said enough?”
Clearly, at that moment, Zhun Ti was about to negotiate terms and make some concessions to the Dao Sect.
What Li Changshou wanted to strive for next was to make the Western Sect give up on the second round.
Actually, there was no need to fight today. Everything was waiting for the Violet Firmament Palace to decide on the matter of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
They would defeat the Western Sect and make them the enemy of the Dao Sect. If they attacked in advance, they would only cause the Great Tribulation to lose control. The most ideal situation would be for the disciples of the Western Sect to turn into ashes.
The Heavenly Courts would need legitimate gods, and the positions would be filled by the top-notch experts of the Dao Sect. The Heavenly Courts would choose the best ones and follow the rules.
Li Changshou immediately walked forward and bowed with a Dao salute…
At that moment, Perfected Taiyi’s mouth was still sealed. Apart from the hot-tempered Goddess of Golden Spirit who was a little dissatisfied, the other big shots looked at him with admiration.
If he did not fight, he would be able to do it. That was the most stable way.
Wouldn’t that be the first wave without a name? Li Changshou stood still. An aura came from his dantian to his throat. He immediately raised his hand and bowed…
“Don’t. Changgeng, continue scolding! I’ll help you destroy that pagoda later.” That clear and relaxed voice!
Those calm words!
The four experts of Jie School were shocked. They turned around and looked at the young Daoist who had appeared a thousand feet behind them. Look at the young man. He had sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, and a high nose bridge. He was dressed in a blue robe and had a headband that swayed gently.
There were stars in his eyes, and faint Dao runes surrounded him. It was as if he had been there all along, but he did not make a sound.
He was neither standing nor sitting. Instead, he was lying on the cloud. He raised his left foot slightly and placed his left hand on a sheathed sword.
At that moment, the expression of the Saint’s Dharma idol collapsed. His dignity seemed to have been interfered with, and he could not condense it at all…
Daoist Duobao, Zhao Gongming, the Goddess of Golden Spirit, and Fairy Yun Xiao looked solemn. They bowed and said, “Greetings, Master!”
Li Changshou and the other disciples of the Dao Sect bowed and said, “Greetings, Aunt-Master!”
“Yes, yes, yes, yes!” A certain Perfected One’s mouth was sealed. Kong Xuan also bowed slightly with a Dao salute. His eyes were still filled with eagerness, but he said, “Greetings, Grandmaster of Heaven.” The disciples of the Saint of the Western Sect hurriedly bowed and greeted him.
The Grandmaster of Heaven snorted.
“Who are you to call me Uncle-Master? Since when did the Dao Sect accept people like you? Changgeng?” Li Changshou hurriedly said, “I’m here.”
“Continue scolding. Don’t stop. I’m listening intently. What are you talking about?”
The Grandmaster of Heaven smiled and said, “If you can scold them for six hours today, I will agree to your marriage with Yun Xiao. How about that?”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Yun Xiao frowned slightly and pursed her thin lips.
“Master, how can you say that? You often teach disciples to be open and aboveboard. You don’t use mystical abilities to suppress others or use power to suppress the weak. The living beings of the world have to advance themselves in order to obtain that chance of survival. Why did Master decide on my Dao companion without asking me anything? Can’t we decide this matter ourselves?”
“This…”
The Grandmaster of Heaven sat up and smiled warmly. “Yun Xiao is right. I’m too excited and my Dao heart is stirred. If Changgeng scolds them happily, I will give him a treasure. How about that?”
Yun Xiao bowed. “I offended you, Master. I’m willing to accept your punishment.” The Grandmaster of Heaven secretly glared at Li Changshou. The latter hurriedly stood up and coughed softly. He quickly thought of a solution. It was time to attack and defend.
At that moment, he was thinking about how to hurt the Western Sect.
No, at that moment, he should be thinking about reducing his hatred and trying his best to avoid karma while ensuring that the Dao Sect’s benefits were the greatest.
Or…
Li Changshou looked at Ksitigarbha who was on Truth Listener’s back. The latter was frowning as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Forget it. There’s a high tendency for my plan to backfire if I only grabbed one of them. I shall divert my attention and “share” it with fellow disciples with Ksitigarbha. “Today, let’s discuss this… Burning Incense Divine Kingdom!”
