During the Ancient Investitures of the Gods era, the Prime Clear Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure's lineage flourished. He taught everyone without discrimination and enjoyed the beautiful reputation of having tens of thousands of immortals paying homage to him.
Other than the Lord of Plentiful Treasure, the Golden Spirit Divine Mother, the Incongruence Divine Mother and the other bigwigs of the Prime Clear direct lineage, there were also seven Immortals who listened to his lectures. With the Lord of Numinous Treasure as their master, they were all hegemon-like figures.
Qiu Shou Immortal and Ling Ya Immortal were two of them. They were ancient mutants, the Azure Fur Lion and the Six-Tusked White Elephant.
It was just that during the Conferred God War at the end of the Ancient era, the Prime Clear lineage was defeated by the joint efforts of the other sects, and most of their disciples withered away.
Although Immortal Qiu Shou and Immortal Spirit Tooth did not perish on the Investiture of Gods, they were captured alive by the Jade Clear lineage's Manjushri Heavenly Lord Guangfa and Samantabhadra Enlightened. They were beaten into revealing their true forms and became mounts.
After that, Manjushri Heavenly Lord Guang Fa and Samantabhadra Zhenren both entered Buddhism and became Manjushri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.
Buddhism had its own way of honorific titles. It was the habit of Taoism to refer to Buddha as Daluo and Bodhisattva as Taixu. They compared the levels of Buddhism with their own.
Be it Manjushri Bodhisattva or Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, they were both existences who had attained the Zenith Heaven Realm.
Qiu Shou Xian and Ling Ya Xian also followed them into Buddhism and continued to be their mounts. From then on, most people called them Indigo Lion and White Elephant.
In the past, regardless of whether they were Great Demons or successors of the Prime Clear lineage of Daoism, they were both existences that stood proudly between the heavens and the earth.
The time after becoming a god was naturally a great humiliation and torment for them.
Unfortunately, no one could free them.
The Three Clear Grand Masters had already transcended and were no longer around. Although the Elder Lord was still alive, he had never asked about it.
Qiu Shou Immortal and Ling Ya Immortal were only able to escape after the Middle epoch.
At that time, the Maitreya Buddha changed the central Blessed Lands of Saha's teachings, causing a dispute among the Buddhas. In the end, the central Blessed Lands of Saha split apart, and a large number of Buddhist Bhantes left to join the Western Pure Lands.
It was during that great turmoil in Buddhism that Immortal Qiu Shou and Immortal Ling Ya regained their freedom.
After escaping, they no longer considered themselves as successors of Daoism's Prime Clear lineage. Instead, they joined the Astro Mountains Starry Sea's Demon Race's world and became Demon Race's Great Sages.
Previously, due to the conflict between the Immortal Court and the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus, the Western Pure Lands and the Demon Race had also come out of seclusion and waged war.
Immortal Spirit Tooth and Immortal Qiu Shou had also appeared before, fighting against the experts of the Western Paradise's orthodox Buddhism.
Yan Zhaoge didn't know if the Incongruence Divine Mother had tried to interact with them. However, from the looks of it, even if she had, it would have been an extremely unpleasant outcome.
Moreover, when Daoism had suffered a calamity during the Great Calamity back then, it was hard to say if these two Demon Race Great Sages who harbored resentment had retaliated.
Previously, he had predicted that after they entered the Astro Mountains Star Ocean, they would not help either side in the battle between the Dao Sect and other forces.
But now, it seemed that the actual situation was worse than expected.
Yan Zhaoge stood on the shoulder of the giant ape formed by the North Ocean Clone and looked towards the Horned Head Immortal and the Spirit Tooth Immortal, "I'm not in the position to comment on the actions of the Three Clear Grand Masters in the past. The two of you are free to do whatever you want. However, since you've said so, we're no longer on the same side."
"Forgive me for not being able to hand over the Immortal Trapping Sword and the Immortal Exterminating Sword to the two of you." Yan Zhaoge said calmly, "Everyone will rely on their own capabilities. Please forgive me for offending you."
As he spoke, the two Golden Bodies of the Great Sage formed by Xu Fei and Pan-Pan had already soared into the sky.
"That's exactly what I wanted!" The Horned Head Immortal yelled. A saber appeared in his hand, and he slashed it down.
The saber-light's green radiance was filled with destruction and ferocity. Some traces of the Immortal Exterminating Sword's sword intent leaked out.
The Horned Head Immortal used the sword during the ancient times, and the Middle Ages used the saber. However, he was enraged by Daoism and abandoned the sword. Instead, he fused the sword arts into the saber arts and opened up a new path.
As the saber-light surged, it seemed like it was going to envelop the two Violent Apes.
The two giant apes' hands flickered with golden radiances, which condensed into cudgels. One of them blocked the Horned Head Immortal's saber, while the other made a turn in mid-air and slammed towards the indigo lion's head!
"Monkey's tricks!" The Spirit Tooth Immortal flicked his nose and snorted, "I might not be afraid of you, but I'm not."
A spear with traces of white aura circulating on its spearhead, capable of destroying all living things, pierced towards the giant ape's heart.
The Spirit Tooth Immortal had fused the Prime Clear Immortal Extinguishing Sword's profundities into his spear art, creating a unique style.
The transformation wasn't as graceful as the Immortal Extinguishing Sword Scripture, but it was more ferocious and violent!
The giant ape that Pan-Pan transformed into was fearless. He raised the Ru Yi Golden Cudgel formed by golden radiances and blocked the spear.
The spear's momentum slowed down slightly. The giant ape flipped its body and dodged the spear's piercing attack.
With the Spirit Tooth Immortal alleviating the pressure, the Horned Head Immortal fought against the Golden Body of the Great Sage alone.
While the Golden Body of the Great Sage was powerful, it was still in the Grand Virtual Realm. It would be hard for it to suffer a disadvantage against a veteran Grand Heavenly Realm expert like the Horned Head Immortal.
After all, without the true Ru Yi Golden Cudgel, it would be hard for it to pose any threat to the Demon Race's Great Sage.
On the other side, the Sword Son of the Six Paths, Qu Su, remained expressionless as he unleashed his Samsara Sword.
Gao Qingxuan wielded the Immortal Trapping Sword and faced Qu Su head-on.
Compared to using the Immortal Slaughtering Sword back in the Jade Spring World, Gao Qingxuan's current Immortal Trapping Sword allowed her to shift through space much more conveniently. It was almost comparable to the Grand Heavenly Realm's omnipresent ability, which allowed her to contend against the Buddha Qu Su.
However, while the Treasured Sword Buddha Lord, who was most suited to coordinate with Qu Su, was currently surrounded by Great Demons. Their demonic auras blotted out the skies and even destroyed the devilish domain.
Under such an environment, Qu Su's sword art actually guided Gao Qingxuan's surrounding demonic aura, gradually transforming it into the Beast Dao of the Six Paths of Samsara.
Qu Su's sword attacks became faster and faster, sealing off Gao Qingxuan's shifting space and forcefully striking her into the Beast Dao!
Gao Qingxuan's sword-lights were ethereal and hard to determine. The dark-red radiance flickered inside and outside, causing Qu Su to be unable to grasp it.
Unlike the Golden Body of the Great Sage, it was hard to injure the Demon Race's Great Sage.
If Qu Su was careless, Gao Qingxuan's Immortal Trapping Sword wouldn't hold back.
However, Qu Su didn't seem to care about this at all. He didn't plan to slowly wear down Gao Qingxuan's Immortal Essence. Instead, he revealed a determination to kill his enemy even if he were to be injured by the Immortal Trapping Sword!
Gao Qingxuan was merely the beginning. Yan Zhaoge and the Golden Body of the Great Sage beside him were Qu Su's ultimate targets.
However, Qu Su did not lose his composure. His attacks were still orderly.
However, the enemy who had killed his master, the Treasured Sword Buddha Lord, was right in front of him. While Qu Su was calm as usual, the murderous intent in his heart had reached an unprecedented peak!
Yan Zhaoge's expression was similarly calm. After confirming that there were no other hidden enemies in the vicinity, he turned and leapt into the ear hole of the Northern Ocean Clone's giant ape.
After which, the giant ape let out a long howl towards the sky. He took out the real Ruyi Jingu Bang and started to attack the three opponents in front of him.
"Good timing! We've been waiting for you! "Although Immortal Qiu Shou and Immortal Ling Ya's weapons were knocked away, they still roared in unison.
One opened its mouth wide.
