Chen Xiaobei: Beware of the Ancestral Lord? Sifu, are you kidding me?
The Prime of Tongtian: I'm serious! The Ancestral Lord is the ruler of the Three Realms. He is the king of the Three Realms! On the surface, the Ancestral Lord lives in the Purple Cloud Palace! But in reality, he has been doing something!
Chen Xiaobei: What is it?
The Prime of Tongtian: Balance!
Chen Xiaobei: Balance? Balance what?
The Prime of Tongtian: The Ancestral Lord has been keeping the six Saints in check! The Ancestral Lord doesn't want to see any of them grow too powerful. He doesn't want to threaten his position!
Chen Xiaobei: I don't understand …
The Prime of Tongtian: Back then, thousands of deities came to Jie Faction! I controlled the four Divine Blades! I even had the Divine Blade Formation and the Formation of Ten Thousand Deities! It was an unprecedented event! But do you know why Jie Faction suddenly declined?
Chen Xiaobei: The reason was that the Divine Blade Formation was broken and the four Divine Blades were taken away …
The Prime of Tongtian: That's just the surface reason! Think about it. Why did the Primordial Lord of Heaven manage to invite the Grand Lord of Heaven? Why isn't even Junior Sister Nuwa willing to help me at the critical moment?
Chen Xiaobei: Could it be … Because of the Ancestral Lord? (Shocked)
The Prime of Tongtian: Yes! It was because Jie Faction was too powerful at that time! If I'm allowed to continue developing, sooner or later, I'll be able to swallow up the other sects, and even take in the other Heavenly Saints!
The Prime of Tongtian: Because of that, the Ancestral Lord felt threatened by me! He was afraid that I would replace him one day! So, during the last Immeasurable Cataclysm, he plotted against me more than once in the dark!
Chen Xiaobei: No way … Didn't the Ancestral Lord love you the most?
The Prime of Tongtian: The Ancestral Lord does love me! But the premise is that I don't threaten him! Once he felt threatened, all the doting would completely disappear!
Chen Xiaobei: That's true. But do you have any evidence to prove that the Ancestral Lord has set you up? After all, I think he is a good person …
The Prime of Tongtian: Evidence? That's too much! Let me give you an example! After the Immortal Vanquishing Sword Array was broken, Guangchengzi of Chan School snatched the Immortal Vanquishing Sword, Red Essence snatched the Immortal Slaying Sword, Perfected Yu Ding snatched the Immortal Trapping Sword, and Heavenly Lord Daoxing snatched the Immortal Slaying Sword!
The Prime of Tongtian: After that, they used the Deity Slaying Four Swords to destroy our Myriad Deity Formation and slaughtered many of our people! In the end, he even humiliated me!
The Prime of Tongtian: At that moment, the Ancestral Lord came to mediate the fight! On the surface, they said that they were here to protect me, but why did they only come to protect me after the Great Array of Innumerable Immortals was broken and my disciples were slaughtered?
The Prime of Tongtian: The point is! After mediating, the Dao Ancestor did not let the four juniors of Chan School return the Four Immortal Vanquishing Swords to me! In the end, he was afraid that I would make a comeback!
Chen: I can't believe such a thing actually happened! Looks like my understanding of Dao Ancestors is really too shallow! (Shocked)
First, the Ancestral Lord exerted pressure on the Heavenly Dao Sages to side with the Primordial Lord of Heaven and break the Fairy Slaying Sword Array!
Then, the Ancestral Lord watched as the Myriad Deity Formation was broken and the people of Jie School were slaughtered!
In the end, the Ancestral Lord even allowed Chan School to take away the Four Immortal Vanquishing Swords!
Even if you think with your toes, you would know that the Ancestral Lord did not dote on the Prime of Tongtian at all during this series of events. All he did was plot and suppress him!
Because of that, the Prime of Tongtian was defeated during the last calamity, and Jie School was completely defeated!
All of this was because the Ancestral Lord felt threatened!
Chen Xiaobei: Sifu! According to what you said, if I choose Rahu, Dijiang, and Taiyi today, will the Ancestral Lord feel threatened? Will he plot against me? (Nervous)
The Prime of Tongtian: Not for now! Because you are still a mortal. Before you go to the heavenly realm, anything can happen! For example, if you die, the people you choose will join other forces!
Chen Xiaobei: That's great! I was worried that the Ancestral Lord would plot against me … I wouldn't even know how I died …
The Prime of Tongtian: Don't be nervous. You are not qualified for the Ancestral Lord to plot against you! But in order to keep you in check, the Ancestral Lord will not give you any convenience! He will even allow the Primeval Lord of Heaven to use methods that violate the heavenly rules to deal with you!
Chen Xiaobei: That's what you mean by 'balance'?
The Prime of Tongtian: Yes! What the Ancestral Lord really wants is not to completely destroy one party! He wants all parties to fight and suppress each other. In the end, he wants them to keep each other in check! To keep the balance that no one can achieve!
Chen Xiaobei: I understand now! Just like the Primeval Lord of Heaven who has made many mistakes, if the Ancestral Lord wants to punish him, he will be sentenced to death! But the Ancestral Lord does not plan to punish the Primeval Lord of Heaven. In the end, he wants the Primeval Lord of Heaven to preserve his strength to keep the other Heavenly Saints in check!
Chen Xiaobei: Similarly, even if the Ancestral Lord plots against me in the future, he will not let me die! Instead, he wants me to fight with a certain party. It would be best if I don't win or lose! That way, I will never be able to become strong enough to threaten the Ancestral Lord!
The Prime of Tongtian: Smart! That's the logic!
The Prime of Tongtian: I am reminding you to be wary of the Ancestral Lord, not to be wary of him plotting against you! Because you are still too weak. You are not worthy of his attention! But if the Primeval Lord of Heaven does anything to you that violates the heavenly rules, we will not be able to complain to the Ancestral Lord!
Chen Xiaobei: Understood! The Ancestral Lord does not care about me. This is a way to keep me in check! From today onwards, if I encounter any unfair things, I will have to bear it myself! I will settle it with my own fists! There is no way to reason with him anymore!
The Prime of Tongtian: Rough words, but the logic is not rough!
Chen Xiaobei: Then, can the price of the merit points ledger be changed back?
The Prime of Tongtian: Don't worry. From today onwards, the merit points ledger will no longer be under the control of Chanism! Also, with Shen Gongpao as a good example, I believe no one will dare to change the price secretly!
Chen Xiaobei: That's great. From now on, I can finally exchange things normally!
Chen Xiaobei: The only thing that is a little unfortunate is that I can't ask the Ancestral Lord to lift the ban on sending me Red Envelopes!
The Prime of Tongtian: This ban cannot be lifted! That was because the Primeval Lord of Heaven's reasoning was correct. Sending red envelopes from the Celestial Realm to the mortal world would seriously disrupt the balance of the mortal world and cause great damage or casualties!
The Prime of Tongtian: If you want to receive as many Red Envelopes as you want, the only way is to ascend to heaven! When you come to the Immortal World, the ban will no longer apply to you!
Chen: Ascending to the heavens? To the Immortal World? Don't worry, Master! With this as my goal, I will continue to work hard! I will strive to cross the Gate of Heaven as soon as possible and pay my respects to you in person!
The Prime of Tongtian: I'm not worried! With the momentum of your growth, transcending the tribulation and ascending to immortality is inevitable! Furthermore, I won't have to wait too long!
Chen: Oh right! I have another question!
The Prime of Tongtian: Go ahead!
Chen Xiaobei: Sifu already knew that I could get Luo Hou, Di Jiang, and Tai Yi. I want to ask Sifu, how did you know that Laotzu would give up Di Jiang?
Prime of Tongtian: Do you still remember what I told you about Laotzu's biggest characteristic?
Chen: Yes! Leave a way out for others!
The Prime of Tongtian: That's right! I knew that you would be able to get Luo Hou! That way, you will have the highest chance to shine in this Immeasurable Calamity!
The Prime of Tongtian: Laotzu gave up the second spot to you because he did you a huge favor! If you manage to laugh until the end of this Immeasurable Calamity, Laotzu will be able to bask in your glory!
