After Hong You left, Shen Chong looked at the sky. Following everyone's defeat, this piece of heaven and earth became lively again. This meant that the power that shrouded this place was disappearing.
He did not understand what this power was. He could not see it nor sense it. He only knew that it existed.
For example, the supernatural power that suppressed all the cultivators here, causing the vital essence to dissipate quickly after everyone's dharmakaya was destroyed. This should be the power of this power.
Based on his own knowledge, he simply attributed it to some kind of obsession.
This obsession repeatedly created opportunities for him to take the Zhou Huanyuan Jade, but he rejected it again and again. In this process, it was obvious that the restriction of the obsession on the Primordial Jade was slowly disappearing.
He did not think that this was his own effort. He felt that it was very likely that this obsession could not achieve its wish and was becoming weaker under the corrosion of some kind of equivalent power.
He looked at the Primordial Jade. When the Weili's influence completely disappeared, then it was time to take the item.
He could accept the Primordial Jade, but he would never accept the Primordial Jade given by others.
This action was equivalent to him competing with this power on a different level.
Of course, this did not eliminate the possibility that the other party did this intentionally. He might have been within the other party's calculations from the beginning. Even so, it was due to the difference in levels and it was not unacceptable.
Just like what he said earlier, the victory before him was not the final victory. The battle before him was also not the final battle. As long as he could live up to his Daoist heart, it was fine.
After Kuai He backed out of the battle, he found a place to sit down quietly.
He was betting that after he gave up the Primordial Jade, he could leave this place.
However, if there was only one person left here, the Primordial Jade would only appear. That was fate.
After waiting for an unknown period of time, he suddenly felt something. He realized that his suppressed power was rapidly recovering. He could not help but stand up. Once this power returned, he would undoubtedly be able to break through the void and leave. He did not need to stay here anymore.
He did not pursue the reason here. Without hesitation, he leaped into the clouds. In an instant, the sky broke and he had already crashed out of this place.
This time, the forces from Heartless Dao, Extraterrestrial Demons, and Connate Demons were all annihilated. In the end, he was the only one who managed to escape. If it wasn't for the fact that he knew that he couldn't compete with his opponents and withdrew from the battle for the Essence Jade in advance, he would probably have the same ending.
In the Land of Creation, Xiang Jue and the others also sensed something at this moment. They realized that there was no one to rely on when they were sent to the Weili. They immediately knew that the chess piece had made a mistake.
Heng Wu said: "Looks like fellow Daoist's plan has failed"
Wei Ming said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist is wrong. This is not Fellow Daoist Xiangjue's scheme alone. If we want to talk about failure, it is our plan that has failed."
Xiang Jue appeared to be very relaxed and was not disappointed at all. He smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. It is just an idle chess piece. There is no need to be too calculative. Moreover, the reincarnation of the Spirit of Creation was defeated by others. It is enough to show that it is only so-so. It is not impossible to defeat."
Wei Ming nodded and said, "Even though it's only a fragment of the Spirit of Creation, it doesn't mean that it's not that formidable without its mighty strength. If we're able to divide and annihilate its mighty strength, we might indeed be able to annihilate it."
Ji Zhuang did not say anything. Although he did not like Fengdu, what Wei Ming said was undoubtedly correct. It was meaningless to divide one's energy on these minor details. It was better to think about how to deal with the Spirit of Creation.
At this moment, Hong Du glanced below the stage and sneered.
He had actually seen all the little tricks of this generation. At the very least, the Weili could not be hidden from him. However, this matter was too small. As long as it did not interfere with official business, he could not be bothered to care.
On one of the mountain peaks in the Outer Sea of the Mountain and Sea Realm, a beam of light flickered as a Realm Gate opened up. Hong Youzhong emerged, and after some quick calculations, he realized that only a few moments had passed since he had left.
He looked around. Although he had failed this time and did not obtain any Origin Jade, it was not as if he did not gain anything.
He had originally thought that having reached this stage of cultivation, he had almost reached the end of the Realm. However, he had seen a whole different world from Shen Chong.
However, if he simply relied on himself to cultivate in seclusion, he would not make much progress. One could imagine how many outstanding talents there were in the Heavens and the Ten Thousand Realms. He should not be limited to a corner. He should also go around visiting famous and powerful people, honing his Daoist skills and searching for opportunities.
As for his first stop, there was no doubt that he would first visit the Shaoqing Sect and the Qincang Sect.
These two sects were undoubtedly the best of the best in terms of Daoist teachings in the Mountain and Sea Realm. Back when the cultivators of these two sects had broken through the barriers of Heaven and Earth, they had led all the sects of the Nine Continents to ascend to the Outer Realm.
Although he had interacted with the cultivators of these two sects, he had never paid them a formal visit. Now was the perfect time to fulfill that wish.
Although the Primal Yang Sect had been destroyed in the Mortal Tribulation, he did not feel any resentment. If he had been in their shoes, he would have made the same choice to break through to the Outer Realm. He would not have allied himself with those people who would defend their own land to the death. Furthermore, after ascending, he was no longer a person of the Primal Yang Sect. Therefore, he had nothing to worry about.
After getting his bearings, he used a divine ability to teleport in the direction of the Western Sky Badlands.
The Kunshi Continent.
After escaping from Yao Canbei, Duan Cheng immediately returned to the branch altar. The first thing he wanted to do was to interrogate He Yifang. Even if he had no evidence, he could not allow He Yifang to take over the position of Chief Dharma Protector before everything was clear.
However, after investigating, he found that He Yifang had already found an excuse to leave, and was now nowhere to be found. Furious, Duan Cheng immediately went to the Inner Temple to interrogate Elder Yuan.
Elder Yuan was very calm, and replied, "This matter is not clear yet, so we can't jump to conclusions. I will send a letter to He Yifang and ask him to return. However, Just Now, Dharma Protector Duan went to capture the Good Fortune Spirit, and did not notify me. He almost lost his life. I will report this matter to the main altar later."
Duan Cheng angrily said, "I will apologize to the main altar for this matter, but we cannot tolerate traitors! Furthermore, what happened to He Yifang was clearly your doing. You cannot absolve yourself from the blame! "
Elder Yuan expressionlessly said, "Please leave, Dharma Protector Duan. I will deal with this matter myself, and I will give the branch altar a satisfactory explanation."
Duan Cheng said, "Fine, I'll see how you deal with this!" He waved his sleeve and left angrily.
Elder Yuan's face darkened. He never thought that He Yifang would do something like this. Just Now, when he said that he would send a letter to He Yifang to return, he was just saying it casually. Based on his experience, it was not difficult for him to determine that He Yifang's sudden improvement in cultivation was most likely due to the Dao technique of the Good Fortune Spirit.
He sighed. This time, he had made a mistake, and it was his fault for trusting people too easily.
However, since he had already made a mistake, he could not make a second one. Before he left, he must find a way to solve this matter.
He summoned the deacons in the branch altar, and said, "Pass my order to the Dharma Protectors. Whoever captures He Yifang, I will recommend that person to be the next Great Dharma Protector."
The deacons said, "Elder, He Yifang is very powerful. I'm afraid those Dharma Protectors are no match for him."
Elder Yuan Daoren said, "It's fine. They can borrow the transcendent artifacts in the branch altar, and I didn't say that they would fight him alone."
The deacons said, "Elder, forgive me for speaking bluntly. From all the signs, it is very likely that those dozens of sects have been bewitched by the Good Fortune Spirit. If we ignore this, there will be many troubles in the future. "
Elder Yuan shook his head and said, "I have thought of all that you said. However, even if there is something wrong with those sects, it is not appropriate for us to act now. You must know that I have never been on good terms with those sects. If I were to do this again, even if I have a good reason to do so, these people will be even more hostile towards me. Instead of that, we might as well just ignore it. When they can't handle it, it won't be too late for us to step in."
The deacons wanted to say something but stopped. If they ignored this matter now, it would definitely cause endless harm. However, what Elder Yuan said made sense, and he could understand. Right now, Yan Jiao had a pile of problems that he had yet to solve, so how could he be in the mood to care about this?
At this time, Elder Yuan said with a solemn expression, "There is one more thing. The matter of He Yifang must not be spread out. Tell the Protectors that no one is allowed to leak this matter."
He believed that regardless of whether this matter was right or wrong, it must not be blown out of proportion. It must not be made known to everyone. Otherwise, if everyone in the branch altar knew that a person who was about to become the Chief Protector had long been in cahoots with the Good Fortune Spirit, the people would definitely be shaken.
The deacons nodded and said, "I understand." He bowed and retreated.
Elder Yuan sighed and sat behind the table for a while. Then, he picked up a brush and wrote down the general situation. Then, he sealed the letter. He summoned a trusted aide and said, "Go to the main altar through the realm gate. You need to personally hand this item to Elder Gao."
The aide said solemnly, "Don't worry, Master. I will not disappoint you."
Elder Yuan knew that even if Gao Guo was willing to put in a good word for him, it would be difficult for him to escape the blame. A Good Fortune Spirit had been hiding under his nose for a long time. Even the next Chief Protector was in trouble. If things were to get worse, the branch altar might be in danger of being destroyed.
After sending the letter, he suddenly thought of something. He knocked on the table and suddenly looked up. He said to the servant outside, "Go and find Protector Meng."
The servant received the order and left.
After waiting for a long time, the servant finally came back and reported, "Master, when I found him, I said that Protector Meng happened to be out on a pilgrimage. Fortunately, I heard that Protector Meng has …"
Elder Yuan could not bear to listen to him. He waved his hand and interrupted him. He asked directly, "Where is he now?"
The servant lowered his head and said, "Well, Protector Meng's real body is not here. He said that he went to a sect to visit Dao. However, I found his mana clone. It is now waiting outside the door."
Elder Yuan frowned and said, "Mana clone?" He thought about it. Even if it was a mana clone, the real body would know what he was told. It was a pity that this person had not cultivated to the level of mortal metamorphosis. Otherwise, with the Divine Will, everything could be explained clearly.
He said in a deep voice, "Call him in."
After a short while, Meng Hu's transcendence energy doppelganger walked in. He bowed to Elder Yuan and said proudly, "Greetings, Elder Yuan. I am Meng Hu's doppelganger."
Elder Yuan's eyelids twitched. It was the first time he saw such a high-spirited clone. This made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable. However, now was not the time to care about this.
He took a deep breath and sternly said, "Protector Meng, I believe you know about He Yifang. He has probably obtained the Dao Art of the Spirit of Creation. You've enlightened the Spirit of Creation several times before, so you should be more familiar with him than the other protectors. I need you to immediately put down what you're doing and go capture him!"
