In the Aquamarine Palace on the Golden Turtle Island, the Tongtian Hierarch was sitting cross-legged on a futon. Below him were many disciples of the Tribe of Jie, such as Duobao Taoist, Goddess of Golden Spirit, Goddess of Wudang, Goddess of Turtle Spirit, Zhao Gongming, Goddess of Three Heavens, and so on. They were all famous immortals of the Tribe of Jie. However, at this time, they looked worried, because many disciples of the Tribe of Jie had been killed or injured in the confrontation with the three religions.
The Tongtian Hierarch looked at the disciples below and said, "You already know the situation now. The three religions of the West have joined forces to fight against the Tribe of Jie. Many disciples have been killed by them. Now the three religions have gathered at the Golden Rooster Ridge. Kong Xuan of the Blood Sea lineage is there, which gives us a chance to regroup."
After hearing this, Duobao Taoist asked with some doubts, "Teacher, although Kong Xuan's cultivation is profound, I'm afraid that he may not be able to resist the disciples of the three religions. Now the four Quasi-saint Xuandu, Burning Lamp, Guangchengzi, and Medicine Master are all here. Even if they can't defeat Kong Xuan alone, if the four of them join forces, I'm afraid Kong Xuan won't be able to resist for long. We should prepare early. "
After hearing this, the Tongtian Hierarch shook his head slightly and showed a faint smile on his face, "Duobao, you underestimate Kong Xuan. Let's not talk about his cultivation, but his comprehension and courage are not comparable to you. Duobao, you became a Quasi-saint by following the Way of Three Corpses passed down by Hongjun Daozu, but Kong Xuan took a different path and cut out the Five Elements Corpses."
After all, the Tongtian Hierarch was a Sage. How could he not figure out Kong Xuan's Way? As early as when Kong Xuan cut out the Five Elements Corpses at the Abdication Ceremony of the Human Emperor, the Tongtian Hierarch found some clues. Even though he was a Sage, he was really amazed by Kong Xuan's courage. He destroyed his congenital Divine Sense and cut the Five Elements Corpses in order to walk the path of Origin that no one else had walked. Few people in the Great Desolation had such courage.
To be honest, the Tongtian Hierarch really admired River Styx's means of training his disciples. Although he only had three disciples, each of them was extremely amazing. If his disciples could be half or even one-tenth as amazing as them, they would not have suffered losses at the hands of the three religions. Even Duobao, although already at the Middle-stage of Quasi-saint, was still much weaker than them.
It was the first time that Duobao and the others heard their old Tongtian Hierarch praise others. At the same time, they were also curious about Kong Xuan's Five Elements Corpses. Golden Spirit Goddess asked, "Teacher, what's the difference between Kong Xuan's Five Elements Corpses and the Way of Three Corpses? Could it be that this Way is more powerful than the Way of Three Corpses? "
The Tongtian Hierarch explained, "It's not that the Five Elements Corpses is more powerful than the Way of Three Corpses. The two have a thousand years. Kong Xuan has an innate Divine Sense called the Five-colored Divine Light. His Five Elements Corpses were cut out by destroying his innate Divine Sense. When all the Five Elements Corpses were cut out and cultivated to the peak of Quasi-saint, he combined the Five Elements Corpses to prove the Way of Origin. Such courage is rare in the Great Desolation."
After the disciples of the Tribe of Jie heard this, they were all amazed. However, few people in the Great Desolation would dare to destroy their innate Divine Sense, let alone walk the path of proving the Way that no one else had walked before. No wonder their teacher praised Kong Xuan's courage. After hearing this, Duobao and the other disciples felt an unprecedented fighting spirit rise in their hearts.
Looking at the subtle changes in some of the disciples, the Tongtian Hierarch nodded with satisfaction. He wanted to use Kong Xuan to stimulate his disciples so that they would not be arrogant. Now that his goal had been achieved, the Tongtian Hierarch continued, "I'm afraid it won't be easy for the three sects to break through the Golden Rooster Ridge. The Blood Sea has a grudge with the three sects, so I'm afraid Kong Xuan won't show mercy. It can also weaken the strength of the three sects."
After hearing this, Duobao asked, "Teacher, even if the disciples of the three sects can't win in the Golden Rooster Ridge, Kong Xuan is not a member of the Tribe of Jie after all. No one can predict how long Kong Xuan will fight with the three sects. We should prepare early. When we fought with the three sects before, we suffered a lot. Even the Ten Lords of Heaven were killed."
After hearing this, the Tongtian Hierarch nodded. Now there was no possibility of reconciliation between the three sects and the Tribe of Jie. In the Battle of Gods Investiture, either one of them would die. It was good that Duobao could think of preparing for a rainy day. The Tongtian Hierarch said, "Duobao, you're right. Before this, your Junior Brothers and Junior Nephews were defeated one by one by the disciples of the three sects. In the future, if you want to go out of the mountain to help the Shang Dynasty, you can go together to deal with the people of the three sects."
After hearing this, the disciples of the Tribe of Jie nodded. The disciples of the Tribe of Jie who were killed before were indeed defeated one by one by the disciples of the three sects. Although they could take some advantage in the beginning, in the end, they were usually defeated one by one by the disciples of the three sects. In the end, they were listed on the List of Gods one by one. If the disciples of the Tribe of Jie went out of the mountain together, it would not be so easy for the disciples of the three sects to succeed.
After the disciples of the Tribe of Jie left, the Aquamarine Palace suddenly became empty. Only the Tongtian Hierarch was left. The Tongtian Hierarch suddenly frowned and said lightly, "Daoist Friend River Styx, since you're here, why don't you show yourself?" As soon as the Tongtian Hierarch finished speaking, a crack appeared in the main hall. River Styx walked out slowly from it.
As soon as he came out, River Styx smiled and said, "Tongtian Daoist Friend, I came in a Poor Way. It's a little rude of me to come uninvited." River Styx waved his sleeves and a majestic mana suddenly appeared and disappeared. There was no change in the surroundings. This was River Styx using his supreme mana to conceal the secrets of the Aquamarine Palace. He came here for his own scheme and he did not want others to know about it.
When the Tongtian Hierarch saw that River Styx had concealed the secrets of the Heavens, he knew that River Styx was probably here for something important. Therefore, he asked, "Daoist Friend River Styx, what brings you here?" The Tongtian Hierarch naturally knew that River Styx was here for the Battle of the Gods. However, he did not know what River Styx was here for and why River Styx was looking for him.
River Styx smiled and waved his sleeves. A cloud platform rose and he sat cross-legged on it. He did not answer the Tongtian Hierarch's question directly. Instead, he asked, "Daoist Friend, the Sage's Primordial Spirit is entrusted to the Tendo and is immortal. What does the Daoist Friend think of this?" River Styx smiled, but the question he heard was a little strange.
When the Tongtian Hierarch heard River Styx's words, he frowned. Looking at River Styx's smiling face, the Tongtian Hierarch said calmly, "As long as the Great Desolation is not destroyed, the Tendo will not be destroyed. As long as the Tendo is not destroyed, the Sage will not die." Although his words were calm, they revealed the Sage's situation. The Sage relied on the Tendo to reach the state of immortality. However, if the Tendo was destroyed, the Sage would also be destroyed. After all, they had entrusted their Primordial Spirit to the Tendo.
When River Styx heard the Tongtian Hierarch's words, he nodded. However, the Tongtian Hierarch saw through it and said, "Daoist Friend, since you know this, then you must also know why the Poor Way abandoned the Hongmeng Purple Qi. The Poor Way pursues the supreme Dao. How could he allow the Tendo to bind him? I believe the Tongtian Daoist Friend understands what I mean."
When he heard River Styx's words, the Tongtian Hierarch's expression became complicated. He naturally understood what River Styx meant. However, no one in the Great Desolation had the courage to do so. Although the Tongtian Hierarch thought highly of himself, it would be difficult for him to make the decision to leave the Tendo and give up his position as a Sage.
The Tongtian Hierarch looked at River Styx and said seriously, "Daoist Friend River Styx, I'm afraid you didn't come here just to tell me this! Daoist Friend, why did you come here? Please tell me directly. The Poor Way doesn't like to play riddles with people. " The Tongtian Hierarch really couldn't figure out River Styx's intentions after hearing River Styx's rambling.
River Styx laughed and said, "Alright, since that's the case, the Poor Way won't play riddles. The Poor Way is here to make a deal with the Tongtian Daoist Friend. Now that the three Western Religions have joined forces to deal with the Jie School, Lao Tzu and Yuanshi have probably disregarded the brotherhood between you and the name of Sanqing. Although the Daoist Friend has the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, Lao Tzu, Yuanshi, Summon and Zhunti together are enough to break the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. When the time comes, what will the Daoist Friend do?"
River Styx's words seemed to have poked the Tongtian Hierarch's sore spot. The Tongtian Hierarch's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal. He said calmly, "Even so, the Poor Way has a way to deal with it. There's no need for the Daoist Friend to worry about it. If it's just for this, then the Daoist Friend can go back." The Tongtian Hierarch had his own pride, so he wouldn't use River Styx to deal with the enemy.
River Styx couldn't help but laugh when he heard the Tongtian Hierarch's words. "Haha, the Daoist Friend has his own principles. The Poor Way naturally understands that. The deal that the Poor Way mentioned has nothing to do with this. The battle between the Daoist Friend and the Daoist Friend will be handled by the Daoist Friend. Why would I, River Styx, interfere with it? Besides, even if we want to deal with them, the Poor Way and the Daoist Friend are the same.
