In an hour, 162 mortal cities within the territory of the Sea God Sect were attacked.
162 temples were destroyed, and the statues were smashed. More than ten thousand mortals were killed or injured. Most of them were members of the Sea God Sect who had rushed to protect them.
Twenty-three Divine Envoys of the Sea God Sect died …
That was the result of Li Changshou's paper effigy army arriving in time to put out the fire and the Celestial Court's full support.
What gave Li Changshou a headache was …
This time, the other party had sent demon immortals that were only comparable to the Essence Immortal realm, as well as brutal demonic beasts that had many negative karma.
A golden pillar of light appeared in the sky. The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals descended to the mortal world to eliminate the demons. The demons that had harmed the mortals in the various cities had no power to fight back. Even the ferocious demonic beasts were quickly eliminated.
However, the mortals that they had caused were still irreparable.
The other party had used the smallest price to cause a large area of chaos. He had implicated tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and his paper effigies …
The other party's attack this time was completely different from before. The division of soldiers, horses, cannons, and carriages was rather detailed.
It was a little like the battle in the East Ocean.
Before the East Ocean Eye was broken, every time Li Changshou fought with the Western Sect, it was like … like the ten-person competitive online games that Li Changshou often played in his previous life. It was clearly a five-on-five battle, but one or two people from the other party would jump out and shout at them,
"I'll support you."
However, the Western Sect had stopped their confusing behavior. Their actions had become capable and ruthless.
It was really difficult to deal with.
What was even stranger was that the other party had set fire to the South Ocean and then quietened down.
When Li Changshou was raising the little demons, he used the Soul-Bewitching Pearl to collect their remnant souls and memories. He did not find any valuable fragments.
Those little demons had been casually captured and thrown into the cities of the South Ocean to cause trouble.
The experts who had captured them had not been discovered by them at all …
Test?
No, it's definitely not as simple as a test. There are a few deeper meanings.
The other party's actions in the South Ocean were most likely just a feint. However, he could not rule out the possibility that destroying the Sea God Sect was their main target for revenge.
This would have to be analyzed from the perspective of 'motivation'.
In a dark corner, Li Changshou closed his eyes. Beneath his feet, a city with billowing smoke seemed to appear. His mind was working at high speed.
Not long after, instructions flew to the South Continent, the Netherworld, the Donghai Dragon Palace, the Celestial Court, and the Heavenly River through the paper effigies …
In less than half a day, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals of the Celestial Court began to gather at the Five Heavenly Gates. The total number of troops mobilized reached more than 600,000, and they each set up a defensive formation.
The Yin Si of the Netherworld mobilized the Yin soldiers to guard the various vital points in Fengdu City. The Magi of the Netherworld were also mobilized to guard the few vital points outside Fengdu City.
The current Underworld didn't have much control over the various parts of the Netherworld. As long as they could protect Fengdu City, the Underworld wouldn't suffer any losses.
The Dragon Palaces of the Four Seas were also on high alert.
The Donghai Dragon Palace was the firefighting team. The experts of the other three Dragon Palaces were stationed near the Sea Eye. The Black Dragon Soldiers, who had been renamed from the Immortal Flood Dragon Soldiers, kept patrolling everywhere. The Sea Clan also mobilized.
In the territory of the Sea God Sect of the South Continent, the temples of the Sea God Sect were all sealed. The various cities announced that there were demons causing trouble and asked the mortals to leave the city to hide. At the very least, they did not want to get close to the Sea God Temple.
Li Changshou had always been very clear about that.
"If the temple is gone, it can be built again. The deaths of mortals will result in negative karma.
Human lives should not become broken bricks in the temple. As immortals, they can't be heartless and cheat living beings who give them incense merit. "
The Dragons had also sent hundreds of experts to the edge of the South Ocean. They hid in the seawater and waited for Li Changshou's orders.
In the Pill Chamber of Xiao Qiong Mount.
Li Changshou flew out from the corner and put away the paper effigy that was used to refine pills. He turned into a wisp of green smoke and went to the Cave Abode in the mountain.
Li Changshou walked to the main bedroom that he had left for himself. He opened the secret compartment in the corner and activated the mechanism there, revealing a secret room that was decorated rather exquisitely.
The candlelight swayed, and the smoke was ethereal. Li Changshou walked to the portrait that was hanging there, lit the incense again, and paid his respects.
After obtaining the Dao of Water Virtue from the Taiqing Emperor, Li Changshou copied a portrait of the Taiqing Emperor and hung it there. When he was free, he would offer incense and pay his respects.
Li Changshou had come to pay his respects today purely to seek peace of mind. He did not have any bold or immature thoughts.
However, before he could look up, he felt a slight ripple in the universe. A familiar spiritual will lingered in his heart, and a heavy object fell on his head …
With a soft clang, Li Changshou covered his head and smiled bitterly. The small pagoda beside him that was deliberately acting mischievously trembled.
"Little Disciple! Wahahaha! "
Uh, is the matter that serious this time?
The Taiqing Emperor took the initiative to send the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda to me to protect myself!
The Western Sect suddenly began to "micromanage". Li Changshou was not nervous. After all, the Western Sect was clearly "abnormal" previously. That was in line with the "sub-disciple" of a large sect.
However, now …
The Taiqing Emperor, who was the best at deducing among the six Saints, took the initiative to smash the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Pagoda on his head!
Li Changshou instantly became nervous.
This matter was probably serious.
He had no choice but to activate the highest level of defense system!
…
At the same time, in the northwest of the Aparagodānīya Continent.
A few streams of light shot over from the south to the north. They stopped in front of a cliff and turned into two women and a man.
Just as the three of them were about to "crash" into the mountain wall in front of them, they suddenly heard the sound of mosquitoes. Their expressions changed slightly and they took two steps back. They either lowered their heads and cupped their fists, or bowed slightly.
Sanguine light lingered, and Wenjing Daoren, who was dressed in a sanguine dress, revealed her enchanting figure.
Wenjing Daoren nodded slightly at the three people beside her and took two steps forward. A faint ripple appeared on the stone wall in front of her and enveloped Wenjing Daoren.
The three Primordial Beasts behind her looked at each other and lowered their heads to follow.
Inside the illusion was a hall. Golden light shone inside, and a peaceful aura flowed everywhere. A treasure flag floated in the middle of the hall, concealing everything that was happening … Wen Jing arrived a little late.
She looked around and saw that the seats were filled with Primordial Beasts that were similar to her. She pursed her lips slightly and walked to the empty meditation cushion in the front row.
Are you testing us again, or are you going to do something big?
She pondered carefully in her heart and recalled the warning she had received from the Water God twenty years ago. She immediately became vigilant.
Most Primordial Beasts lived alone, and the hundred or so figures sitting there remained silent. No one spoke to them, and no one asked them anything.
Suddenly, he heard a chuckle coming from the depths of the hall. Two lantern-sized green beast eyes lit up in the corner. There seemed to be flames surrounding them.
The Truth Listener divine beast slowly took two steps forward, but then it lay on the ground and let the young Daoist on its back move forward alone.
It's him again?
Wen Jing sneered in her heart and immediately understood something.
Ksitigarbha gestured for the ferocious beasts not to stand up. He sat on the meditation cushion in front of him and smiled.
"Fellow Daoists, I've made you wait."
Responses rang out in the hall one after another.
After a while, Ksitigarbha raised his hand and gestured. The entire hall quickly quietened down.
Ksitigarbha smiled and said, "I invited everyone here today. Firstly, I have something important to ask of you. Secondly, I want to thank you for your hard work over the years.
Although the Western Sect cannot let you walk to the front of the stage because of your background, the two teachers have seen your contributions. After the Western Sect prospers, the merit and reputation that should be given to you will naturally not be lacking. "
Wen Jing Daoren spat in her heart and thought to herself, How shameless.
Ksitigarbha said loudly, "Let's not talk too much.
"Let's cut to the chase. Today, I've invited all of you here mainly to discuss something before doing something.
Do you know what I have done in the past twenty years? "
Ksitigarbha squinted and smiled. "I have been searching for the whereabouts of the Celestial Court's Water God and have found something."
Wen Jing Daoren's fingers trembled slightly, but her expression was normal and her aura was calm.
In the corner, green light shone around the Truth Listener divine beast.
Ksitigarbha said slowly,
"The Water God of the Celestial Court is named Li Changgeng. He has ruined our Western Sect's plans several times and caused us to suffer heavy losses.
However, this person's background is rather mysterious. Even in the Celestial Court, he only uses his incarnation to move around. There's no need to mention him in the various Sea God Temples. All that can be found are his incarnations.
What is he afraid of?
Clearly, he is afraid that his true body will be exposed. As long as his true body is exposed, he might fall into eternal damnation! "
At that point, the light in Ksitigarbha's eyes was so dazzling.
However, the corners of Wen Jing Daoren's mouth twitched …
There was obviously a misunderstanding. That fellow was just afraid of death. His true body was always by that man's side when he came out.
A ferocious beast said in a muffled voice, "This Water God has been hiding. Could it be that he has committed endless negative karma?"
"That makes sense. If not, why didn't Ren School announce that he is the disciple of the Saint?"
"I'm afraid that's more than that … Is it possible that the Water God is a woman?"
The ferocious beasts contributed their imaginations. Wen Jing Daoren found an opportunity and said, "Perhaps the Water God of Ren School has the same background as us."
Ksitigarbha smiled and shook his head.
"Everyone, there's no need to make wild guesses. From the Water God's previous actions, we can conclude that he is from the human race and has a sense of belonging to the human race.
This can be concluded from the teachings of the Sea God Sect and the daily actions of the Sea God Sect. "
Ksitigarbha paused and sighed softly.
"It's rare for there to be a rootless tree in the world. The Water God's background is very likely in the Immortal Sect of Ren School.
According to the information that I had obtained from the Dragons, the Water God might have been chosen by the Great Daoist Master of Ren School because of his extremely high talent and comprehension. He established the Sea God Sect to collect the merit of incense offerings.
The matter regarding the Dragons was the trial that Ren School had given him.
However, what made I feel strange was that in the past eighteen years, I had used Truth Listener's ability to monitor the six Immortal Sects of Ren School. However, I did not obtain anything. It seemed that no one in Ren School knew that the Water God was a disciple of Ren School.
Therefore, I decided to change my mind and use a slightly more intense method …
Wen Jing? "
"What instructions do you have, Lord?"
Wen Jing Daoren blinked gently, her eyes filled with eagerness.
Ksitigarbha smiled and said, "I want to choose an Immortal Sect of Ren School to cause trouble and force the Water God to appear. Then, I will use the karma between the demons and the Water God to let everyone and the experts of the demon race attack together and kill the Water God.
Wen Jing has fought with the Water God before. Which of the six Immortal Sects of Ren School do you think is the easiest to succeed? "
Kill the Water God?
Wen Jing Daoren smiled and said, "Of course, we have to choose the most important immortal sects to Ren School, such as the Carefree Immortal Sect and the Freedom Sect.
However, I have something to ask you to consider. "
"Oh?" Ksitigarbha smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Wen Jing frowned and said, "The Water God is definitely not someone to be trifled with. There was the Golden Cicada's broken wings and the battle at the Demon Ascension Mountain. His Spirit Explosion mystic technique is indeed a little scary."
"Hahahaha!"
Ksitigarbha clapped and laughed. Then, he smiled and said, "Wen Jing's worries are reasonable.
However, Wen Jing, have you thought about it? This time, we are the ones who took the initiative to attack the Immortal Sect of Ren School. If he uses his incarnation to self-destruct, wouldn't he be destroying the city wall? "
Wen Jing Daoren looked enlightened. She smiled and said, "I was overthinking."
Ksitigarbha waved his hand. "I won't hide it from everyone. When you and I were sitting here to discuss, I had already started plotting.
This time, I chose the East Continent's Immortal Sect to lure the Water God to appear …
The Duxian Gate. "
A ferocious beast asked, "Lord, why did you choose such a remote sect? Even if the Immortal Sect of Ren School is destroyed, Ren School will probably not react. "
"Wrong," Ksitigarbha said calmly. "Don't underestimate the Duxian Gate.
According to I's information in the Duxian Gate, Wen Jing had once tried to destroy the Duxian Gate, but in the end, she was defeated? "
Wenjing Daoren immediately said,
"That time, it was to plot against the Dao Sect's Three Sects' Meet. I wanted to destroy that Little Immortal Sect and add some excitement to them.
Unexpectedly, Perfected Du 'e rushed over in time and even alarmed the eldest disciple of the Saint of Ren School. The latter had almost tracked me down.
My Lord, are you prepared to deal with that Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Sect? "
"It's a small matter." Ksitigarbha smiled and said, "I've already ordered the 100,000 demons to attack the Carefree Immortal Sect in an hour. If the Great Daoist Master wants to appear, he will naturally appear in the Carefree Immortal Sect."
A ferocious beast asked, "What if the Great Daoist Master goes to the Duxian Gate? What should we do then? "
For a moment, the beasts all expressed their worries.
"That's right, my Lord. The Great Daoist Master is powerful. He can rush to the Duxian Gate in an instant!"
"The Great Daoist Master took the Lord Sage's Dharma treasure head-on that day …"
"Lord Ksitigarbha, should we consider this matter at length? This is just sending us to our deaths."
Ksitigarbha said calmly, "If the Great Daoist Master abandons the Carefree Immortal Sect and goes to help the Duxian Gate, there will obviously be something wrong with the Duxian Gate. That way, we can conclude that the secret of Ren School is hidden in the Duxian Gate.
Wouldn't the background of the Water God be confirmed?
Everyone, don't worry. I will not let you appear in advance. There will be demons to scout the way.
As long as we can find where the Water God is hiding today, we can plot against him in the future. "
"Lord, you're really brilliant." Wenjing Daoren covered her mouth and chuckled. "If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid that what happened today is just part of your plan.
Find the Water God and see if you can use the karma of the demons to get rid of him. Then, use this to push the demons into a desperate situation and make them have no choice but to join our spiritual mountain in the future.
However, Lord Ksitigarbha, I have a question … "
"Speak."
Wen Jing frowned and said, "Are the abilities of those demons trustworthy?"
"Don't worry." Ksitigarbha smiled and said, "I've already arranged every step for the demons. As long as they follow my plan, nothing will go wrong.
Wen Jing. "
"I'm here."
Ksitigarbha smiled and said, "Sometimes, it's not a good thing to be too smart."
Wenjing Daoren's smile froze. A cold glint flashed in her eyes.
Ksitigarbha's smile did not change. He pretended that he did not see the ferocious glint in Wenjing Daoren's eyes and began to arrange for the ferocious beasts to attack.
The queen looked tough on the surface and was secretly worried.
Today, Ksitigarbha had mentioned her name repeatedly. It was obvious that he wanted to test her. With the troublesome Truth Listener divine beast beside her, she had to be wary.
However …
Why did Ksitigarbha seem to have underestimated that fellow when he said that nothing would go wrong?
Ksitigarbha was not a human. Wen Jing was not Taiqing, but the Water God was real …
Ahem, I can't say it.
…
In the East Continent, 15,000 kilometers southwest of the Duxian Gate, at the border of the territories of several Immortal Sects, in the continuous forest.
Waves of auras that were hidden quietly gathered and surged towards the huge holes that had appeared on the ground.
In the Pill Chamber of Xiao Qiong Mount.
Li Changshou paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. He looked at the above scene in his heart and felt a little troubled.
