At the edge of the five continents of the Primordial World, a golden light slowly streaked past and flew in the direction of Golden Ao Island.
Where is the Green Touring Palace?
Li Changshou naturally did not know. However, he could not get lost with the three eldest disciples of Jie School.
Along the way, Bai Ze, Zhao Gongming, and Daoist Duobao chatted happily. Most of them were discussing the skills of fighting the Great God. Mr. Bai seemed to have completely forgotten that there was still a "dark team" in the Primordial World that he needed to lead.
He looked at Fairy Yun Xiao beside him. She was sitting cross-legged five feet away. Her thin dress was scattered around her body. She was holding a book and reading it with her head lowered.
He used that to cover up the little embarrassment he felt just now.
When they flew near Golden Ao Island, Daoist Duobao stood up and took two steps on the Golden Roc's back. He arrived in front of Li Changshou and waved his sleeve. A seven-colored ray of light shot out and opened a door in the world.
The Cloud Palace was ethereal, and the immortals were shining.
The Golden Roc spread its wings and flew into the door. The surrounding universe trembled slightly, and it entered a Small World created by a Saint. It was quite similar to Goddess Nuwa's Goddess Nuwa's Palace.
However, the Dao runes that circulated there were sharp and sonorous. They also contained an unyielding and upward intent. They were rather dazzling.
Fairy Yun Xiao put away the scroll in her hand and stood up. She reminded Li Changshou gently, "When you see my Master later, don't be too polite. Otherwise, Master will not like it."
"Alright." Li Changshou nodded and agreed. However, he smiled in his heart.
Could it be that he had to call the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch brothers and call him "father-in-law" and "son-in-law"?
That would be too rippling.
He had to follow the most basic etiquette of a junior.
At the very least, he had to show the respect of a Saint.
The Golden Roc flew past the pavilion on the clouds and alarmed the immortals of Jie School who had returned first. Streams of light headed towards the main hall of the Green Touring Palace. Twenty to thirty figures stood in front of the hall.
Li Changshou held the Taiji Painting with his left palm. The red lotus slowly overflowed from the Taiji Painting and turned into the size of a palm. It slowly rotated.
Before this, there was a detail:
When Chi Jingzi and more than twenty experts from the two sects rushed into the ruined hall of the Asura Ancient City, Li Changshou immediately burned his paper effigy. He did not participate in the subsequent matters.
Why?
Because there was a thorny problem.
At that time, the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River and the twelfth-grade red lotus were already under his control. Should he continue to let the red lotus absorb the negative karma power of the Blood Sea so that the twelfth-grade red lotus could reach true perfection and recover to its peak, or should he seal it immediately to prevent any future troubles?
That problem involved the dispute between Chan and Jie. Li Changshou could not deal with it and could only choose to watch from the sidelines.
At that time, he had already done enough. Be it Chan School or Jie School, he did not owe or lean towards them. He did what a disciple of the Dao Sect and Ren School should do.
In the end, the immortals of the two sects sealed the twelfth-grade red lotus together and cut off its connection with the sea of blood. In the end, it was less powerful than the twelfth-grade red lotus from the ancient times …
Li Changshou could only pretend not to know about that. After personally offering the red lotus to the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch, he left.
When they arrived at the Green Touring Palace, the few Goddesses led the immortals of Jie School to greet and thank them. Li Changshou and Bai Ze returned the greeting.
Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao, who had specially rushed over to wait, were looking at Li Changshou with shining eyes.
This prospective brother-in-law is impressive!
Daoist Duobao laughed loudly. "Master! Changgeng is here to send the red lotus! "
A chuckle sounded from the hall. The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch's figure gradually condensed from the clouds.
Li Changshou bowed to the immortals of Jie School in front of the hall. He glanced at a middle-aged Daoist with long ears and a benevolent face in the corner.
That person was the biggest traitor of Jie School, the long-eared Immortal Dingguang.
"Brother-in-law!"
Qiong Xiao suddenly shouted, "Since you're already in the Green Touring Palace, change your appearance to that of an old man!"
Yun Xiao looked over when she heard that. Qiong Xiao hurriedly shut up, shrank her neck, moved her feet, and hid behind Zhao Gongming. The entire set of actions was completed in one go.
Zhao Gongming stroked his beard calmly and smiled … He took a step to the side and revealed Qiong Xiao.
He was the eldest outer sect disciple of Jie School, Zhao Gongming, who was extremely righteous!
He could not care less.
Yun Xiao was about to reprimand him when Li Changshou spoke first. He smiled and said, "This body is just a shell. Fairy, why can't you see it?"
At that moment, Li Changshou flicked his horsetail whisk with his right hand. His white hair gradually turned black, and his face turned 70% similar to his original appearance. His figure was also taller, and a few stars were hidden in his eyes.
Li Changshou stood beside Fairy Yun Xiao again. He could really make people say that they were compatible and praise them for being a good match.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit chuckled and urged, "Go in quickly. Don't let Master wait for long."
Li Changshou entered the hall and held the red lotus with both hands. Under the company of Zhao Gongming and Yun Xiao, he greeted the Hierarch of Jie School, the Grandmaster of Heaven.
Bai Ze did not enter. He waited outside with the Golden-Winged Roc.
In the hall, the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch was sitting upright on the throne on the platform. After all, it was the first time Li Changshou had visited. He had to have some dignity.
Playing around was one thing, but the dignity of a Saint was not to be trifled with.
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Tongtian!"
"Hahahahaha!"
The Hierarch of Tongtian's originally tense face suddenly broke, and he threw his head back and laughed. He raised his hand to make a gesture of stroking his beard, but found that he did not have a beard, so he took the opportunity to straighten the collar of his robe.
The young Daoist, who looked to be the same age as Li Changshou, immediately stood up and said loudly,
"Disciple-Nephew Changgeng, this time, in the Reincarnation Pagoda, you made an agreement for the Dao Sect not to fight.
In the Blood Sea, he stopped the Netherworld River from reviving and was the first to solve the problem of the Sea Serpent, saving face for the Dao Sect.
Now, he has sent the red lotus to my Green Touring Palace to help Jie School suppress the fate of the sect!
Does Disciple-Nephew Changgeng have any rewards that you want?
This Uncle-Master will definitely not be stingy with you! "
As he spoke, the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch specially looked at Fairy Yun Xiao. When he saw that Yun Xiao's expression was normal, his smile widened.
Li Changshou didn't even raise his head.
He only smiled and said, "I'm just acting on Teacher's orders. I don't dare to ask for a reward, Uncle-Master.
Uncle-Master, before I came here, I first went to the Taiqing Temple to pay respects to my teacher. Then, I went to the small courtyard behind the Jade Void Palace to pay my respects to Second Uncle-Master and ask about the red lotus.
Second Uncle-Master specially instructed me to send the red lotus to the Green Touring Palace to help Jie School suppress the fate of the sect! "
"Oh?"
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch said warmly, "Did Second Senior Brother really say that?"
"I will not dare to lie in front of the Lord Sage."
Li Changshou said seriously, "Now that the Great Tribulation has arrived, the Purple Cloud Palace is about to discuss the Great Tribulation.
Teacher did not want to see the Dao Sect being taken advantage of by the outer sect. He had reminded me several times.
When Second Uncle-Master was lecturing me previously, he had also mentioned this matter …
Uncle-Master, what do you mean? "
"Hahaha! Changgeng, do you want me to express my stance? "
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch laughed and placed his hands behind his back. He walked down the stairs leisurely and smiled.
"In the future, you can just say such things directly.
If you beat around the bush a few more times, this Martial Uncle won't be able to understand.
Among the three Hierarchs of the Dao Sect, I'm the youngest. I naturally follow my two senior brothers.
Although I don't get along with Second Senior Brother, it's just a quarrel behind closed doors. If someone wants to smash the door, they will naturally beat the person outside first. "
"In that case, I can reply to Teacher with peace of mind."
Li Changshou gently pushed the red lotus forward. The Taiji Painting restrained the Yin-Yang aura and returned to Li Changshou's palm.
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch waved his right hand, and the restrictions on the red lotus were undone layer by layer. Specks of light floated around him.
Suddenly, the red lotus erupted with a rich sanguine glow. A shadow appeared in front of the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch and frowned at the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch.
It was Patriarch Nether River!
At that moment, Patriarch Nether River said firmly,
"Fellow Daoist Grandmaster of Heaven, do you really not care about the relationship between ancient living beings and want to snatch it?
Ask yourself, do we have any karma that has yet to be severed? "
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch frowned slightly. There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
At that moment, Fairy Yun Xiao took a step forward. The Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice in her palm shone with two golden rays of light and struck the back of Patriarch Nether River's remnant soul.
The remnant soul was instantly sealed. The image of Patriarch Nether River turned into a three-inch-long segment and floated in the middle of the red lotus.
Fairy Yun Xiao said softly, "Master, the Great Tribulation is imminent."
At the side, the Goddess of Golden Spirit pulled out a sword made of white jade and was about to slash at the image on the red lotus.
Li Changshou immediately reminded, "It's more appropriate for Uncle-Master to take action.
"It's best that you do it, Uncle-Master. The red lotus has fused with the Nether River Patriarch's soul fragment."
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch pondered for a while and hugged his arms.
"The Nether River is right. I don't have any karma with him …
It's not appropriate to destroy his remnant soul and snatch his treasures. "
If others were in Li Changshou's current position, they might take out the logic that Patriarch Nether River was a great villain and that Patriarch Nether River was an existence that the Heavenly Dao did not tolerate.
However, Li Changshou would not do that.
The teachings of Jie School were to obtain a chance of survival for living beings.
Why did he have to intercept a chance of survival?
It could be understood that the Heavenly Dao was restraining, controlling, and determining the fate of living beings. The teachings of Jie School were filled with the color of fighting against the heavens.
Among the Saints, the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch should be the one who did not care about the Heavenly Dao the most.
A few ideas surfaced in Li Changshou's mind. He found the most suitable one and the safest one. He smiled and said,
He smiled and said, "Uncle-Master, pardon me for reminding you.
Patriarch Nether River understood Uncle-Master's upright personality. He deliberately said that in order to survive.
If he says there is no karma, there is no karma?
May I ask if you have a red lotus seed in your hand, Uncle-Master? "
"That's right. I actually have one."
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch's left hand swayed slightly. A shriveled lotus seed appeared in his palm.
He smiled and said, "It happened a long time ago. When I was searching for the Chaos Bell in the Chaos Sea, I encountered an ancient enemy and killed him casually. I obtained it from him …
Eh? Why is this lotus seed shriveled? "
The immortals of Jie School were speechless.
Did you not pay attention to this matter at all previously?!
The famous painting of the Primordial World, "I Want to Change a Saint as a Master", was released.
Li Changshou no longer had any doubts. Many conspiracy theories collapsed on their own.
He continued, "According to what I know, there are a total of three red lotus seeds. One is in the hands of the Second Hierarch of the Western Sect. Previously, it was revealed in the Celestial Court.
One is in your hands.
The other had already been planted in the sea of blood and turned into this red lotus.
According to my previous observations, there were four ferocious people who had mixed in the Chaos Sea helping Patriarch Nether River.
Uncle-Master, can you let the Golden Roc Marshal of the Celestial Court enter? "
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch agreed. "Alright."
The Golden-Winged Roc received Li Changshou's voice transmission and transformed into a human. It grabbed a pitch-black spear out of thin air and held it with both hands. It entered and bowed to the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch.
Li Changshou said, "Golden Roc, tell me about the demon you intercepted that day."
"Okay!"
The Golden-Winged Roc said firmly, "When that demon was on the verge of death, he begged me to spare his life. He claimed to be the son of an ancient Demon General!"
The Goddess of Turtle Spirit said crisply,
"Master, I was also helping from the side. When that demon begged for mercy, he did shout that.
Two other Ferals had aided the Nether River Patriarch that day, one of which appeared to be a Taotie that had appeared in ancient times and devoured the divine art his disciple had unleashed with a single gulp.
Unfortunately, they took advantage of the chaos to escape. "
At this point, the Goddess of Turtle Spirit was a little disappointed.
Li Changshou continued,
"It's the son of a Demon General, the ferocious beast Taotie, and it just so happened that he was resurrected when the great calamity descended …
It was enough to conclude that this had been arranged by the Nether River Patriarch since ancient times.
The Great Tribulation this time is targeting our Dao Sect. Isn't the Nether River Patriarch plotting against the Dao Sect by choosing this time to cause trouble?
Moreover, it was precisely because he had gone against the flow and was unwilling to disappear that he had forcefully used the red lotus to revive, causing the Chan School and Jie School to almost fight over it. Wasn't that karma?
In this disciple's opinion, this karma is too great. "
"Hahahaha!"
The Hierarch of Tongtian laughed heartily and praised, "You really have Chang Geng, you can even go around this.
Forget it, forget it. The fate of the sect is the most important. The lives of the Hierarch's disciples are the most important. If I go against my heart, then so be it.
Qingping Sword, come. "
With a clear sword hum, a crack appeared in the universe. A sheathed sword landed in the palm of the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch.
The strongest young Daoist in the Primordial World unsheathed his sword and faced the red lotus. He focused and gathered his luck.
Li Changshou and the disciples of Jie School held their breaths and watched carefully. They did not want to blink.
Suddenly, a sword beam flashed and slashed across the red lotus. The truths of the world contained in it made Li Changshou's Dao heart tremble!
As the sword hum sounded, the Qingping Sword disappeared from the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch's hand.
The red lotus did not move. The remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River on it was rapidly weakening. It was like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any moment.
However, it did not extinguish in the end.
Daoist Duobao frowned and said, "Master, can't you sever the connection between Patriarch Nether River's remnant soul and the red lotus?"
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch sighed and said, "I knew the moment I attacked. If I destroyed the remnant soul, the red lotus would definitely collapse."
The surrounding immortals of Jie School were disappointed.
They had been busy for more than half a month. They did not expect such an outcome.
However, the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch smiled and said, "Don't look sad.
You should have it in your life and not have it in your life. Changgeng was the one who plotted this lotus.
Without this lotus flower, will Jie School fall?
In that case, Duobao, bring your junior brothers and sisters here and think about whether there is a way to crack it.
Changgeng, come with me. "
Although Li Changshou was a little puzzled, he immediately lowered his head and bowed. "Yes, Master."
"Master," Yun Xiao asked gently, "Can I follow you?"
"No." The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch waved his hand. "We want to have a conversation between men. It's not convenient for you to listen as a woman."
Yun Xiao pursed her lips and bowed. "Yes."
Sensing the worry in Fairy Yun Xiao's eyes, Li Changshou began to feel nervous …
Hence, a moment later …
…
Li Changshou had actually thought that when he came to the Green Touring Palace, the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch might drink tea with him.
If he was a little bolder, he would imagine exchanging toasts and chatting with the Sect Leader of Tongtian.
However …
This!
Whoosh …
In the northwest corner of the Small World where the Green Touring Palace was located, there was a thirty-feet-wide hot spring at the top of an immortal mountain that was filled with immortal aura.
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch sat in the pool and looked at Li Changshou, who was standing by the pool and did not dare to come down.
"Why? I'm inviting you to take a bath. Aren't you going to do me the honor?"
Li Changshou felt a headache coming on. He bowed and took off his long robe, boots, and long pants. He folded his clothes into a "piece of tofu" and placed them at the side. In the corner furthest from the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch, he slowly walked into the pool …
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch frowned and said, "Do you like to wear clothes when bathing?"
Li Changshou blushed for some reason. Accompanied by the increasingly arrogant laughter of the Taiji Painting, the Pagoda Master, and Brother Chi, he could only take off his clothes …
"Not bad, not bad."
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch squinted and smiled. He hugged his arms and said calmly, "Treat my disciple well in the future. I won't ask too much about your matters, lest Yun Xiao comes to lecture me again."
"Ah, yes, definitely …"
Li Changshou agreed and imitated the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch. He summoned some white fog to envelop himself.
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch asked, "What did your Second Uncle-Master say to you?"
"This …"
"Did he say that there are too many disciples of Jie School and that he despises them?"
Li Changshou said, "More or less."
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch sighed and condensed a towel out of thin air. He wet it and placed it on his forehead.
The Hierarch leaned back and placed his elbows on the edge of the pool to make himself more comfortable. He closed his eyes and muttered, "I haven't said enough for so many years.
If he hadn't chanted the incantation so tightly back then, I wouldn't have been angry with him and preached the Dao everywhere … "
Li Changshou took the opportunity to ask the question that he had been puzzled for a long time.
"Uncle-Master, you don't have a suitable treasure to suppress your destiny. The Great Tribulation is also a fixed number of the Heavenly Dao. Why did you …"
"Wasn't that because I was angry? Later on, I realized that I had preached too much and gave up on myself. I thought that I could rely on more people to survive the Great Tribulation."
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
The Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch sighed and said, "When the Great Tribulation comes, my disciples will probably be involved. Even if I order them to cultivate in the mountain, the tribulation will drive them out to face the tribulation.
They call me Master. Many of them are because I've watched them cultivate step by step. I can't bear to let them face the tribulation like that.
Changgeng, do you have a way to deal with that red lotus? Even if you can only protect a few, it's not bad. "
Li Changshou pondered for a while. Although he was filled with emotions after hearing the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch's words, he finally decided …
He had to be steady.
"I actually have a method, but I'm only 30%, no, 10% confident."
