When the messenger from Supreme Firmament Palace came for the second time, Ji Feichen and Yuzhi Female Celestial had already arrived at the Heavenly Mother Palace.
At the entrance, Goddess Ming Wen and Fang Ji had been waiting for a long time.
Once Ji Feichen arrived, Ming Wen passed a scroll to him, "Goddess said that you two don't need to meet her, you will be the one to decide the matters of the mortal world."
Seeing the Apotheosized God Scroll, Ji Feichen was overjoyed, "Goddess really understands me!"
A thousand years ago, many celestials were conferred as gods and the Yin spirits returned to the Celestial Dao. But after a thousand years, Ji Feichen planned to give them a chance of survival and confer the dead as gods to preserve their foundations and wait for a thousand years to be released. This time, he brought Yuzhi Female Celestial here to ask Goddess Tian Mu for the privilege to be conferred as a god.
However, the anger of the Dao Venerables had yet to dissipate. The Heavenly Mother was unwilling to meet Ji Feichen to avoid provoking the sensitive minds of the Dao Venerables.
Seeing that Ji Feichen kept the scroll, Ming Wen said, "Alright, you guys chat slowly, I will go back and report to Goddess. Oh right, remember to bring the white ape with you. "
Ji Feichen replied with a smile, "This time, I'm here for that ape." Then, he said to Fang Ji, "Senior martial sisters, it has been a long time since we met, you must have something to talk about. I will go look for Yun Chi." Then, he went to the garden behind the Heavenly Mother Palace to look for Yun Chi and the white ape.
Ming Wen also returned to the palace, leaving Fang Ji and Fang Ji to talk.
The two looked at Ji Feichen's back and Fang Ji said slowly, "What do you think about him returning to the mortal world?"
"It is beneficial to Yunxiao Pavilion. But I never thought that he would really come back. "
"Yes, I really didn't expect that." Fang Ji said sadly, "His achievements are getting higher and higher, I thought that he would not care about Yunxiao Pavilion anymore, but who knew that he is such a sentimental person."
If it wasn't for Ji Feichen, the enmity between the Clear Spirit Celestial Sect and the Qi Practitioners would probably end in a draw. Fang Ji was not happy with such an outcome. She was very grateful that Ji Feichen was willing to help. In Heavenly Mother Palace, he had spoken up for Ji Feichen many times.
"By the way, I heard that the human world is going to destroy the sects and rebuild the Blessed Heaven?"
"En. Senior Martial Sister is worried about the Moon Concealing Mountain? That's the Yunxiao Pavilion Mansion. My Junior Brother and I will look after it in the human world. At the very least, we can get a blessed land. "
"I don't care about that. I just want to leave some traces of my father in this world."
At the mention of Pavilion Master Fang, Li Jingxun fell silent as well.
Most of the current state of affairs in the world of immortals had something to do with what Pavilion Master Fang had left behind.
"Ancestral Master Fang has sacrificed a lot for the Yunxiao Pavilion and the Qi Practitioners. He will definitely be blessed in the future."
"Of course."
Fang Ji chuckled when she saw the gloomy atmosphere. "Forget it. It's not our place to talk about these things. You've been coming to the Heavenly Palace to listen to Dao and are familiar with the sisters. They talk about you a lot, and they plan to send you an invitation during the Flower Fair. "She changed the topic to trivial matters of women to avoid these serious topics.
On the other hand, Ji Feichen went to the back garden to meet Yun Chi. He saw Yun Chi hanging the white ape on a tree branch and lashing it with a whip. "I told you to sprinkle water and light a fire, but you almost made me lose a palace! Looks like you won't learn your lesson if I don't send you to the furnace! "
"I'm innocent. I only dozed off a little. I didn't expect something like this to happen. Someone must have set me up! "
Yun Chi lashed it a few more times and sneered. "Hmph! There are only two little Daoists in the palace apart from you. If you didn't do it, could it be them? "
"Send him to the furnace? That's great. When I bring him down to the mortal world, I'll throw him into the Eight Trigrams Furnace of the Jade Sect and burn him for forty-nine days to help him open his orifices. What do you think? "Ji Feichen smiled as he walked over and sized up the white ape.
Yun Chi lashed it a few more times before finally stopping. "Why? You want to bring him away?"
"Yes. I need a helper in the mortal world when I'm pushing for a massacre. I brought Mister Xun out of the Heavenly Mother Palace a thousand years ago. This time, I'll bring this evil creature down with me. "
Yun Chi pointed and the Millennium Cold Jade Lock that was hanging the white ape was unlocked automatically.
"Ouch —" The white ape fell to the ground and obediently followed beside Ji Feichen.
Ji Feichen patted its head and asked Devil Monarch Yun Chi, "How are the preparations over there? I found another helper in the mortal world this time. Maybe she can help. "
"The one called Li Jingxun?"
"You know her?"
"I saw her." Yun Chi's expression was inexplicable. "Her foundation is solid and pretty good. It's just that Yu Guan isn't willing to do anything himself. Me and Li Jingxun alone might not be enough. "
"Yes. I'll bring Tushan and Old Peng."
"Those two have great fortunes and could be of help." Yun Chi understood that Ji Feichen was worried that he would betray them, so he'd found someone to keep him in check.
The two of them exchanged information, and Ji Feichen brought the white ape back to the entrance of the Heavenly Palace.
The two of them saw that Ji Feichen had returned. Yuzhi Female Celestial asked in confusion, "This monkey?"
"He's a protector prepared for Qiao Yuan. Don't look at how impatient he is. His power isn't simple, and most people can't kill him. "
"How does he compare to Mister Xun?"
"He's not below him."
The white ape heard Ji Feichen praise him and couldn't help but look proud.
Ji Feichen looked at him and didn't say anything more. He was very curious about the Bodhi Dharma Society of the East, and he was planning to use the monkey to probe the Bodhi Venerable's background.
"Apart from Qiao Yuan and the white ape, I'd like to trouble you to find a few other candidates for the Tribulation Taker. Well, we don't really have to gather eight people. Five would be enough. "
"Five?"
Ji Feichen was a little mischievous as he reiterated, "That's right. Two of them will each wield a demon-subduing treasure, using my Demon Subduing Zither and Li Jingxun's Ring of Hatred. As for the other three, they'll each wield two demon-subduing treasures. " Ji Feichen had intended to pull Wu Yang over again, but he gave up on that idea after careful consideration. Wu Yang was very busy at the moment and had no time to help.
"Apart from Qiao Yuan, two of the five will belong to us, and the other two will be appointed by the Clear Spirit Celestial Sect."
The eight demon-subduing treasures belonged to Li Jingxun, Jing Xuan, Zhang Yuanchu, Qin Nianxian, Qiao Yuan, Qianzhen Zi, Yuzhi Female Celestial, and Ji Feichen. Half of them belonged to the Mysterious Clear Spirit Celestial Sect.
The Fairy Aunt calculated with her fingers. "Let the Clear Spirit Celestial Sect choose. I'm afraid Fan Qiuyue will count as one. She'd be the most suitable to wield the Ring of Hatred. Jing Xuan and Zhang Yuanchu's magic treasures together would count as one. Qiao Yuan would personally act, and he'd bring Qin Nianxian's treasure. As for my and Qianzhen Zi's magic treasures, one of them could be wielded. But would you let the white ape do it? "
"That's right. That's it. "Ji Feichen was a little disgusted with the white ape. But, after thinking it over, he really didn't have a better candidate, so he could only let it wield the Demon Subduing Zither.
"And Fan Qiuyue isn't simple. Only the white ape would have the power to suppress her.
"As for the other two, you can go back and slowly pick with Sister Li. Right, in order to maintain fairness, we won't be biased toward the qi trainers. Let Qiao Yuan descend to the mortal world to reincarnate and seal his memories. "
"Reincarnate? I'm afraid he won't be able to make it in three years … "
"Directly enter the Way of Heaven and reincarnate as a Celestial. Don't worry. The Underworld has already prepared everything. After all, I don't think they'd want to add parents for nothing. "
The more relatives they added, the easier it would be for the Mysterious Sect to plot against them. It would be better to cleanly reincarnate as a Celestial and only seal his memories.
The two of them soon said goodbye to Fang Ji and returned to the mortal world with the white ape. Coincidentally, Li Jingxun had come to personally discuss the matter of the killing tribulation on behalf of the Highest Palace. Ji Feichen had come forward to discuss with her, and they gradually settled on the general process of the killing tribulation.
When the news reached the Taiyuan Temple, the immortals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"They finally agreed. The last two times the Taiyuan Temple and the Supreme Firmament Palace sent people, the other side didn't want to see them. As expected, the Highest Palace has more face. "
"No, no. This isn't the Highest Palace. It's clearly because of Senior Li. Don't forget, the two are rumored to be Dao companions. "
"Eh? The Dao companions aren't Senior Li and the Demon Sect's Deputy Sect Leader? "
"Tsk, that Deputy Sect Leader is just a brother-in-law. How can he compare to Senior Qing Hong?"
There was a lot of discussion in the Taiyuan Temple, but Zhao Shenxiao and the other seniors had calm expressions. They weren't moved by the good news at all. From their point of view, this was what it should be.
Ji Feichen's method was nothing more than to take advantage of the Pure Spirit Celestial Sect and humiliate them. If it really was something that concerned the common people, Ji Feichen wouldn't dare to really exterminate the Mysterious Sect. Did they really think that the three palaces of the Mysterious Sect were vegetarians?
Taiyuan Child thought to himself, When the Pure Spirit Celestial Sect appears, our Mysterious Sect will be invincible. Let's see how this kid torments us. If he really forces us, we'll use the Pure Spirit Celestial Sect to cleanse the mortal world. Let's see who's afraid of whom!
The Thirty-Six Yang Skies could be said to be a "world-destroying" killing weapon. As long as the full power of the Thirty-Six Yang Skies is unleashed, destroying an entire celestial continent would be a cinch.
Zhao Shenxiao said, "Since the Highest Palace Lord is here, I believe Qing Hong Taoist will have to give him some face." After that, he changed the topic and berated Daolord Tusita who was in the Sovereign Path's camp. "Fortunately, otherwise, I'd take you to the Immortal Confinement Pagoda and punish you for a hundred years for disregarding all the living beings in the world and obstructing Daoist Qing Hong from saving the world!"
The Supreme Firmament Palace Lord had cultivated for thousands of years and was one of the oldest seniors in the Mysterious Sect. His scolding caused many Ground Fairies to tremble uncontrollably. Those who had agreed with Daoist Lord Tushita at the Tranquil Lake lowered their heads, afraid that they would be scolded by Zhao Shenxiao.
Daoist Lord Tushita's cheeks trembled, but he didn't dare to retort. He lowered his head to hide the strange expression on his face, pretending to admit his mistake and accept the scolding in front of this senior.
Child Taiyuan smiled warmly, "Senior Brother, why do you have to be like this? Now that it's been settled peacefully, I'll leave it to the Highest Palace Lord to make arrangements. I believe that although she has a good relationship with Qing Hong Taoist, she won't harm the interests of the three palaces to please her 'senior brother'. "
He nodded lightly, then said to the tens of thousands of immortals below, "Alright, disperse. Since the killing tribulation has been decided, all of you should go back and prepare to fight for the Blessed Grotto-Heavens in the future. "
As the leaders of the two palaces, Qin Wu and Du Yue personally led their disciples to send them off. Only the Heaven Immortals of the Grand Primordial and Grand Firmament lineages were left.
Child Taiyuan suddenly said, "Senior Brother, about the 'earthquake', how much do you believe?"
"Believe? Not a word! " Zhao Shenxiao said mockingly, "You heard what Qin Wu and the others said, Qing Hong and Ji Feichen are the same person! Whether or not he's the reincarnation of Xuan Ming, just based on Ji Feichen's scheming back then, whoever believes this' earthquake 'is a fool! "
The celestial immortals of the two palaces nodded. Just now, they had all pretended to be wooden statues, but now they all spoke.
An old immortal stroked his beard and smiled, "But since they didn't make us Taiyuan and Taixiao clown, why should we care? Why should we care? "
"Yes! If the people who refuted Qing Hong's reputation were our Taiyuan Temple and Taixiao Palace lineages, we might have to deal with it and try to save face. But since it was Daoist Lord Tusita who said it, why should we say anything about the internal affairs of the Highest Path? "
"Daoist Lord Tusita is also of the same generation as Qing Hong and the others, they were friends in the past. Who knows how much of their falling out is real and how much is fake? "
"Even if they fall out, it's an internal battle of the Highest Palace, we just need to watch the show!"
Hearing the celestial immortals' words, Child Taiyuan nodded, "According to Qin Wu and the others, the killing tribulation was originally planned by Li Jingxun and Qing Hong. This so-called 'earthquake' is just an excuse. But the key is that he controls Dragon Mountain and does have the ability to control the ancestral vein, causing the earth dragon to turn over. "
Even if it was fake, Qinghong had the ability to turn the fake into the real. What could the Celestial Sect do? Could it be that he really stupidly opened his mouth and declared that Daoist Qing Hong was behind this?
If they really fell out and obstructed the process of the killing tribulation, the first person to settle the score with them would probably be Li Jingxun, right? Even Qin Wu and Du Yue would be implicated. After all, this was something that everyone had promised. The three palaces of the Celestial Sect cared about their reputation. With their pride, how could they fall out and not admit it?
Also, Qing Hong Taoist's so-called "Xuan Ming Incarnation" made the two palaces even more suspicious. Before there was a decree from the Heavenly Domain, it was better to be careful.
However, Child Taiyuan was a little dissatisfied with Li Jingxun's reputation in the end, "Hmph, these two guys are as telepathic as ever. Qing Hong took advantage of his position and finally allowed Li Jingxun to establish a reputation in the Celestial Sect. First rejecting our two palaces, then letting Li Jingxun succeed, they really played us like monkeys! "
It was also because of this that Zhao Shenxiao reprimanded Daolord Tushita at the end, hinting to the immortals that this matter was caused by the Grand Supreme Dao. In the end, what Li Jingxun did was only to help him remedy it.
He glanced at Child Taiyuan, then at the two Celestial Immortals. Taiyuan Temple had been growing in power in the past few years. The number of Celestial Immortals they had was actually five more than Taixiao Palace!
Zhao Shenxiao lowered his head and did not use Child Taiyuan's words to change the topic, "Let's do it this way. We'll wait for the two of them to arrange the process, then we'll discuss it. At the very least, the two palaces' sacred grounds must be grotto-heavens, and the location cannot be changed. Only then can we not ruin our reputation. "
As for how Taishang Palace Li Jingxun raised his reputation and how he could compete with Taiyuan Temple … Wouldn't it be more beneficial to Taixiao Palace? As long as they remained neutral and acted as reinforcements for both sides in the internal strife, they would be able to maintain their transcendent position, wouldn't they?
Zhao Shenxiao and the others did not stay for long. They quickly excused themselves to prepare and left.
The Heaven Immortals of Grand Primordial Palace personally sent them off. After Zhao Shenxiao's group left and only his own people were left, the smile on Child of Grand Primordial's face suddenly vanished. "This cheap senior brother of mine is becoming more and more like his ancestral master. Neutral? Transcendent? Does he really think of himself as the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao? "
He hinted to Zhao Shenxiao to join forces to suppress Taishang Palace. However, Zhao Shenxiao thought that Taiyuan Temple had grown stronger over the years and planned to use Taishang Palace to suppress them. This massacre was the key to the reshuffling of the three palaces!
An elder said worriedly, "Palace Lord? What do we do next? "
"Ask Du Yue!" Child Taiyuan replied in a bad mood, then explained after a while, "After this massacre, I want to ascend to the Heaven Region. Du Yue inherited the Taiyuan Temple, so I have to let him practice. Also, tell our Taiyuan Temple and the other sects. Right now, our Celestial Sect's reputation is not good. Let them go to various places to put on a show and push the matter to the Supreme Dao. It's not that easy for them to increase their reputation! "
Was it embarrassing for the Celestial Sect to be selfish and not be willing to sacrifice for the world?
As long as they showed their reluctance to leave the various grotto-heavens and blessed lands in front of the world, and then dug up their thousands of years of experience, they might be able to gain some sympathy and have the upper hand when seizing the grotto-heavens and blessed lands in the future.
At the end of the day, it was more shameful to be able to give up thousands of years of Dao orthodoxy without hesitation and be heartless to their homeland, right?
Anyway, with the Tianyi system, it was very convenient for the major forces to communicate. As long as Taiyuan Temple fought the battle of public opinion, they could turn disadvantages into advantages and gain sympathy in the hearts of people from all sides. There might even be people who would take the initiative to give up some grotto-heavens and blessed lands for the sake of the Celestial Sect's sacrifice.
"We're all old immortals with thousands of years of cultivation. In terms of methods and acting, who's afraid of who!"
