Although the death of an ordinary disciple of a Saint was not a big deal compared to the battle today, for some reason, the immortals present felt their hearts palpitate.
Perhaps it was because Taibai Jinxing had been too casual when he attacked.
Or perhaps it was because the attack was too sudden and there were no signs, nor was there any room for maneuver.
The Heart-Piercing Lock bestowed by the Grandmaster Hierarch actually had such power.
Li Changshou acted as if nothing had happened. With a faint smile, he continued to ask,
He smiled faintly and continued to ask, "Everyone, what do you think of my previous suggestion?"
The immortals of the Western Sect dared to be angry but did not dare to say anything.
A few personal disciples of the Saint looked at Guang Chengzi. However, Guang Chengzi had already closed his eyes to rest and did not say anything else.
From the perspective of the unofficial alliance between the two parties, Chan School had already done their best to protect them today.
The reason why they could survive was because of the two Saints behind them …
No, that's not right.
At that moment, Jie School did not kill them. More importantly, they were bound by the Heavenly Dao oath and were no longer a threat to Jie School.
In the future, if the Western Sect wanted to take revenge, the Saints could only go personally.
It was only because the Heavenly Dao oath could not restrain the Saints. Otherwise, it would have been different today.
"Why?"
Li Changshou smiled and asked, "Everyone, you have lost your backbone. Why can't anyone answer?"
"Ah …"
The disciple of the Western Sect, Jia Ye, slowly exhaled and suppressed his injuries. He stood up and took two steps forward. He cupped his hands at Li Changshou and smiled faintly.
However, the smile was rather bitter.
He said slowly,
"The calamity that my spiritual mountain suffered today is not the fault of others. The spiritual mountain should have suffered a calamity.
The calamity that my spiritual mountain suffered today is not caused by others. The spiritual mountain should have suffered.
The suffering that my spiritual mountain suffered today is not caused by others. The suffering of the spiritual mountain is part of my life.
Teacher and Uncle-Master have worked hard for the prosperity of the Western Sect. They have never done anything wrong.
The reason for the mistake was that in the ancient Primordial World, the strong were respected. No one said anything wrong when the strong exploited the weak. Today, the Dao promoted the Celestial Court and established order. In the name of protecting the weak, they killed the experts of living beings.
The Dao Sect's invasion today was just to suppress the weak.
The ancient sects, dragons, phoenixes, Magi, and demons all respected the strong and the weak. The Western Sect is not as brutal as the Magi and demons, nor as arrogant as the dragons and phoenixes. The reason for our defeat is because we are not strong enough.
Did that Dao Gate also go against the will of the Heavenly Dao?
Was the Taoist Gate really able to survive this great calamity?
Is it because you have too many negative karma, or is it because you are not liked by the Heavenly Dao? "
After Jia Ye finished speaking, the smile on his lips deepened as he stared at Li Changshou.
The world was misty and misty.
Many Dao Sect Immortals wanted to refute Jia Ye's words, but they felt that Jia Ye's words made sense.
Many immortals of Jie School no longer had the joy of destroying the Western Sect and getting rid of the calamity. Instead, they fell into a dilemma and frowned.
Li Changshou sighed in his heart.
There were capable people in the Western Sect. The personal disciples that they had received were not good people.
Unfortunately, Jia Ye's mentality was already in a mess and he had lost his sense of propriety. After circling around for a while, he came to the conclusion that the Dao Sect would be buried by the Heavenly Dao.
At that moment, to the disciples of the Dao Sect, it was not convincing. It was more like he was venting his anger and venting his anger.
It added a sense of desolation to it.
Jia Ye said, "Does Lord Taibai Jinxing have any objections?"
"No, Fellow Daoist, you're right."
Li Changshou nodded slowly. "Fellow Daoist, your theory is a good warning for the Celestial Court to carry out the later work.
What else can the Western Sect say? "
Jia Ye's expression was a little cold. The disciples of the Western Sect still looked ashen.
Li Changshou waited calmly for a while and smiled. "In that case, why don't you start swearing?"
The Western Sect was silent.
Li Changshou waited for a while. The smile on his lips gradually disappeared. He frowned and looked at the disciples of the Western Sect who seemed to want to stall for time. He flicked his horsetail whisk slightly.
A jade-colored stream of light flew out of Yun Xiao's sleeve and transformed into the image of a jade statue that was thousands of feet tall behind Li Changshou.
The jade statue raised its arm and aimed at the hall of the spiritual mountain.
Li Changshou's voice sounded. He was still as relaxed as ever. "Do you want to make a Heavenly Dao oath?"
The world was silent.
Li Changshou nodded. The lifeless eyes of the jade statue behind him suddenly emitted a purple-red glow. The spiritual energy in the world surged again, and colorful spiritual energy rivers appeared on the back of the jade statue again …
Fairy Yun Xiao looked at Li Changshou's paper effigy and hesitated.
She should have been the one to do these things.
"Stand …"
Jia Ye closed his eyes in pain. "Let's make a Great Dao oath!"
Li Changshou waved his horsetail whisk, and the jade statue behind him immediately stopped gathering spiritual energy.
A piece of cloth flew out of Li Changshou's sleeve and headed towards the hall of the spiritual mountain.
Li Changshou returned to his smiling appearance. He stood among the immortals, but it was as if he did not exist, did not stand, and did not know anyone.
He quietly sensed that about 20% of the power of the Great Tribulation in the world had dissipated.
At that moment, a paper effigy that was specially hovering outside the ends of the world used the Qi Gazing Technique to look at the five continents of the Primordial World. He saw that the Great Tribulation Sword had already shrunk twice.
That was the outstanding contribution that the Western Sect … had made.
Li Changshou's paper effigy held a small notebook and kept calculating. In the end, he came up with a number that he could accept.
According to the number of experts who had died in the battle on the spiritual mountain today, the power of the Great Tribulation had completely dissipated. Sixty percent of the "total strength" of Jie School and Chan School had to die.
The so-called total strength was actually a vague value.
The specific meaning was that the death of one Zenith Heaven was equivalent to the death of ten Gold God. Every living being represented a different power of living beings.
60% was actually acceptable.
That value was originally close to 80%. It meant that Jie School was almost completely destroyed, or that Chan School was completely destroyed, and more than half of Jie School was dead.
If he traced it back, it was because the Western Sect had mentioned the Saint of Zhun Ti. When he killed Lu Ya, he could not help but slap him, giving him a chance to pull the Western Sect into the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
The Heavenly Dao oath this time was surprisingly short.
After all, he had to consider it comprehensively. If he took too long to make the oath, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain if Zhun Ti or Jie Yin returned?
With a muffled thunder in the sky, the sound of the oath reciting in the hall of the spiritual mountain gradually disappeared.
Li Changshou retracted the cloth and bowed to the hall of the spiritual mountain.
"Thank you for giving I face. From today onwards, as long as the Western Sect abides by the oath and does not attack the Dao Sect, the disciple of Ren School, Li Changgeng, will not plot against you again.
Of course, everyone, please follow the order of the Heavenly Dao and do not do anything evil.
The Heavenly Dao is watching us. "
After saying that, the jade statue behind Li Changshou turned into a stream of light and retracted into Yun Xiao's palm. Under the envious gazes of the immortals of Jie School, Yun Xiao retracted it into her sleeve.
The disciples of the Western Sect in the hall were silent. They activated a simple array formation, as if they did not want to say anything else.
"I'm happy." Lu Yue placed his hands behind his back. His old face was filled with relief. "Today, I'm really happy!"
The immortals of Jie School began to make some post-war declarations. Their auras were high and they were united.
The immortals of Chan School already had the intention to retreat. Guang Chengzi cupped his hands at Li Changshou and turned to leave …
"Senior Brother Guang Chengzi."
Li Changshou stopped Guang Chengzi warmly. The immortals of Chan School stopped.
The focus returned to Li Changshou's paper effigy.
Guang Chengzi smiled and said, "Junior Brother Changgeng, do you have any other instructions?"
"I don't dare to give you pointers. I just have a few words to remind you, Senior Brother. Naturally, I also have to remind Senior Sister Jin Ling."
Li Changshou deliberately smiled bitterly and cupped his hands at Guang Chengzi and Jin Ling.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, if there's such a thing again next time, don't call me.
I'm now an immortal god of the Celestial Court. I'm too close to the Heavenly Dao and am also a person who is in charge of the Great Tribulation.
According to the will of the Heavenly Dao, I should have treated the Western Sect, Jie School, and Chan School equally. Today, I can directly target the Western Sect. It can be considered a fair fight. It's mainly because the Western Sect is not strong enough and has too many problems.
However, in the future …
The Great Tribulation is already an internal matter of the Dao Sect. It's not appropriate for me to side. I can only temporarily put the position of the immortals of the Celestial Court above the position of the disciples of the Dao Sect.
I hope that Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters can understand and understand. "
Li Changshou bowed in all directions.
Most of the immortals of Chan School and Jie School returned the greeting. Some people advised Li Changshou not to worry.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit finally revealed a smile on her fierce and beautiful face.
"Junior Brother Changgeng, don't worry. From today onwards, the immortals of Jie School will not wander around the Primordial World. We will take the initiative to avoid the conflict with the 'fellow Daoists' of Chan School."
He emphasized the word 'fellow Daoist'.
Guang Chengzi also said, "Under the Great Tribulation, there are variables in everything. There might not be only killing intent ahead."
After saying that, Guang Chengzi bowed to the Goddess of Golden Spirit.
The immortals of Chan School sighed. Under the example of the twelve Golden God, they bowed to the immortals of Jie School.
On Jie School's side, Yun Xiao returned the greeting first. Most of the immortals of Jie School also returned the greeting sparsely. It was not neat.
Li Changshou smiled when he saw that. He raised his hand and pulled a green-furred dog that was hiding below the hall of the spiritual mountain to his side. He turned around and rode it.
"I'm going."
Truth Listener perked up and suppressed its previous fear. It was arrogant, raised its head, and puffed out its chest. Green flames appeared under its feet and it carried Li Changshou towards the horizon.
Looking at the old immortal's back, it was gentle and illusory. There seemed to be thousands of Dao runes on it, but it also seemed to be an ordinary old man.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit made a gesture. The immortals of Jie School turned into streams of light and brought out a long river in the sky towards the South Continent.
Guang Chengzi said, "Let's go." The immortals of Chan School returned. They had made a wasted trip.
When the immortals returned, a green-blue True Flame suddenly burned everywhere on the half of the spiritual mountain. It burned the remnant souls and corpses. Even the fragments of the Zenith Heaven Golden God's corpse could be quickly burned by the True Flames.
There were more and more green flames. Cries sounded in the world, and the surroundings were filled with killing intent.
Most of the experts of the Primordial World sighed when they saw that.
Since ancient times, the spiritual mountain that had done many evil things in the Primordial World and had once become a hiding place for ferocious beasts and demonic beasts due to the protection of the two Saints was flattened just like that.
At that moment, the two Saints of the Western Sect had yet to return. They did not know where they were. They did not know if they would go crazy and start a battle between the Saints when they returned and saw the spiritual mountain.
He reckoned that they would not.
The glory of the Western Sect in the past was originally unknown in the ancient times. After the demons declined and the human race prospered, the Western Sect obtained the method to earn merit from incense offerings due to the increasing scale of the human race in the mortal world.
He began to collect ferocious beasts and demonic beasts to wash away their negative karma and use them for himself.
He began to rely on the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom and his own teachings to establish one Burning Incense Divine Kingdom after another to consolidate his teachings.
Before they decided to annex the Dragons, they had already reached the peak of their power.
Although the forces did not dare to clash with the Dao Sect on the surface, the "army" that they had secretly gathered was rather terrifying.
Then, how did they turn for the worse?
Looking at the axis of time, there was an obvious mark.
The Sea Eye of the East Ocean was destroyed.
Li Changshou was one move behind. The Jade Emperor's Golden Body of Pure Merit incarnation jumped into the Sea Eye and blocked it. The Dragons returned to the Celestial Court, and the Western Sect and the Celestial Court were pushed to the opposite side.
The arrogance of the Western Sect and the weakness of the Celestial Court's opening made them make a series of fatal judgments —
"The rise of the Celestial Court is in conflict with the rise of the Western Sect. We have to suppress the rise of the Celestial Court."
Previously, the Western Sect's thoughts were like that …
"If the Dao Sect does not make way, how can the Western Sect prosper? How can we obtain the Great Luck Dao? "
As well as the spur hidden in the deepest part …
"The Saints of the Western Sect became Saints based on their aspirations. If the Western Sect does not prosper, they might be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao."
Those three were the "source of power" that the Western Sect would never return.
However, if one looked back carefully, they would see that the Western Sect had encountered a series of stumbles along the way. There was a bright name engraved on the stumble.
The Sea God, the Water God, Taibai Jinxing, and the Taiqing disciple, Li Changgeng.
Ksitigarbha, who had been devising strategies, was defeated by him.
The Void Bodhi that was hiding its secrets would break when it encountered him.
Maitreya, who was shouting that he was happy, was forced by him to the battle of the destruction of the spiritual mountain. He did not even dare to show his face.
He had smashed the sect of the Western Sect and destroyed the Great Luck Dao of the Western Sect. He had made the Saints of the Western Sect put down their pride several times. In the end, the pride of the Saints of the Western Sect became a joke and their dignity was gone …
If everything could be restarted, an old Daoist priest from the Western Sect would definitely stand up and shout at the high-spirited Ksitigarbha.
"Why did you provoke him!?!"
…
Half a day later, in the Netherworld Reincarnation Pagoda.
Truth Listener lay under the screen at the side. Ksitigarbha sat behind the window sill with a gloomy expression. Li Changshou's paper effigy stood beside the bookshelf on the top floor of the Reincarnation Pagoda. He held a Western Sect sutra and read it with relish.
Truth Listener's large eyes looked here and there as a strange thought surfaced in its mind.
"Ah, how good would it be if Master was a fairy."
"Why didn't you punish me?"
Ksitigarbha muttered softly, "The spiritual mountain is gone. The Western Sect will never have a chance to rise again. Li Changshou, you really won."
Li Changshou's paper effigy replied without looking up, "It's too early to talk about winning or losing. Your two teachers might not have predicted that."
Ksitigarbha was silent. He closed his eyes and sighed slowly.
"Then why don't you take the opportunity to remove my hat as the owner of the Reincarnation Pagoda? That way, you can also destroy the foundation of the Western Sect's destiny. "
"You are the supplement of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. If I touch you because of this, I will naturally be taking revenge."
Li Changshou smiled and placed the sutra in his hand back into the bookshelf. His fingers "stuck" another one.
He wantonly peeped at the cultivation techniques of the Western Sect.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Moreover, I expected you to go to the spiritual mountain. You have a conscience. You're much better than your Eldest Senior Brother.
I'll forget about this matter. It's normal for living beings. I'll plead for mercy on your behalf in front of the Jade Emperor later. I'll spare you this punishment. "
Ksitigarbha remained silent. There was a hint of thought in his eyes.
After a while, he asked softly, "Is the battle between Chan and Jie irreversible?"
"Yes." Li Changshou's smile disappeared. He placed the sutra in his hand back to its original position and slowly walked to Ksitigarbha's side. He sat down casually.
Li Changshou closed his eyes slightly and said calmly, "No matter what I do, I can't resist the power of the Heavenly Dao.
The Dao Sect had long reached its peak. It could only decline.
The most tragic thing was that in the Primordial World, the Heavenly Dao could not arrange an enemy for the Dao Sect. It could only let the Dao Sect kill each other.
The Western Sect, Randeng, and you and I are just pawns that the Heavenly Dao used to weaken the power of living beings. "
"You still have the Great Dao of Equalization."
"That's all in the future." Li Changshou asked, "My Dao is also a part of living beings. Can living beings really fight against the world?"
Ksitigarbha pondered for a while and said, "I don't think so."
"Yes, I can't."
Li Changshou muttered and leaned against the wall under the window. He closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.
Ksitigarbha turned his head and stared at Li Changshou's figure. He slowly sighed, and the hatred in his eyes gradually dissipated.
They had their own standpoints. In fact, there was no resentment.
If he temporarily forgot about the fact that they were opponents, it would not have been easy for this fellow to come this far.
Ksitigarbha was in a daze.
A moment later, he straightened his face and asked coldly,
"Are you going to sleep here? Cultivate again? My Reincarnation Pagoda doesn't welcome you! "
"Lower your voice. It's not like I can't hear you!"
Li Changshou gritted his teeth and replied. He opened his eyes and said, "I'm chatting with my Yun. It's not easy for us to have some atmosphere. Why are you making a fuss!?!"
Ksitigarbha was rendered speechless.
"Hmph! You're obsessed with beauty! "
"I'm willing."
Li Changshou pursed his lips. "Truth Listener, transform into a young girl and dance for your master."
Truth Listener's face and fur turned red. It stammered for a long time and used the transformation technique …
"By the way." Li Changshou frowned and looked at Truth Listener.
