Among the Seven Sages, there were not many who could threaten Yuanshi in terms of strength. Only Lao Tzu, who was also from the Sanqing, and the Tongtian Sect Leader. The Tongtian Sect Leader had the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation, and Yuanshi was no match for him alone. On the other hand, Lao Tzu had the Tai Chi Diagram, and he was also the one who Yuanshi could not see through. However, in order to fight against the Tongtian Sect Leader, Yuanshi had no choice but to maintain a close relationship with Lao Tzu.
Now that Kong Xuan had killed more than a dozen disciples of the Three Religions, including the disciples of the Ren School, Yuanshi originally thought that Lao Tzu would come as well. However, other than his previous anger, Lao Tzu did not do anything. This made Yuanshi a little confused about Lao Tzu's intentions. Was he enduring silently, or did he have other plans? The calmer Lao Tzu was, the more confused Yuanshi was.
Although Yuanshi was confused, he did not have the mood to think about it. Zhunti and Mu Sen were confronting each other, and the two were about to fight. However, if the two were to fight now, the disciples of the Three Religions and the soldiers of Western Zhou would definitely be implicated. It was not easy for Western Zhou to gain the upper hand in their crusade against the Shang Dynasty. If they were to suffer losses now, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
However, it was impossible for Yuanshi to persuade Yuanshi to stop the fight. This time, Yuanshi originally intended to seek an explanation for his disciples. If he were to persuade Zhunti to stop now, wouldn't it mean that he, Yuanshi, was afraid of River Styx? Yuanshi cared about his reputation, so he naturally would not do such a thing. For a moment, Yuanshi felt as if he was riding a tiger and could not get off.
At this moment, Lao Tzu's voice sounded from the horizon. "Everyone, this is the Apotheosized Battle that was decided by Teacher. We have all signed our names, and life and death are up to fate. If you fight now, it will affect the Apotheosized Battle, and that will be your fault. If you want to fight, you can go to the Chaos." Lao Tzu's words gave Yuanshi a way out.
Seeing this, Yuanshi snorted coldly at Qiankun Taoist. "Hmph! Tell River Styx for me that I will not let this matter rest. " After that, he said to the disciples of the Chan Sect, "You all must assist Western Zhou well. Don't make any mistakes. Guang Chengzi, as the Eldest Senior Brother, you must take care of your Junior Brother. This Lingbao is temporarily given to you."
Yuanshi waved his sleeve, and a white light fell into Guang Chengzi's hand. Then, he turned and left. Zhunti suppressed his anger and gave a Lingbao to the Medicine Master. Then, he snorted at Mu Sen and turned to leave. In fact, he also knew that this was not the time to start a war with River Styx. Otherwise, the Jie Sect would only benefit from it.
Guang Chengzi and the Medicine Master were shocked when they saw the Lingbao in their hands. They were the White Cloud Boundary Flag and the Green Lotus Flag of the Innate Five-Element Flags. Now that Kong Xuan was injured and his Five-colored Divine Light was incomplete, the two treasures were top-grade Innate Lingbao. Moreover, they were protected by the divine thoughts of the Saints. As long as they were careful, they could still block Kong Xuan's Five-colored Divine Light.
Only the Burning Lamp did not look good. Among the four Quasi-saints present, Lao Tzu was not present. However, as the only disciple of Lao Tzu, Xuandu naturally had a lot of magic treasures. Guang Chengzi and the Medicine Master now had a new Lingbao. Only he had nothing. Yuanshi favored his disciple so much, the Burning Lamp dared not say anything. He could only hide it deep in his heart.
Seeing that the two Saints had left, the Qiankun Taoist said to Kong Xuan, "Kong Xuan, you are seriously injured this time. You still need to recuperate. Let your Junior Brother handle the rest." After saying that, he left with Mu Sen. They came here to stop the Saints. Now that the Saints had left, it was useless for them to stay here. They could not attack the juniors of the three religions!
Kong Xuan watched the two of them leave. Then, he ordered the soldiers to retreat and returned to the pass. When Bo Yikao saw this, he had no choice but to follow suit. He would come to challenge the pass another day. Xuan Du and the other three were fine, but many of the surviving Daluo Golden Immortal disciples of the three sects were injured and needed time to heal. Moreover, they also needed to discuss countermeasures to break through the pass. Now that Kong Xuan was injured, it was a great opportunity.
In the hall of the Pass, Kong Xuan was sitting with his legs crossed with a pale face. His Dharma power was surging around him. Obviously, he was healing. Black Tortoise sat beside him and looked at Kong Xuan. He asked worriedly, "Second Senior Brother, are you okay?" The angry attack of the two Saints was not a joke. Although it did not hit Kong Xuan, Kong Xuan drove the Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag to resist it. His mind was injured, so he would not be in a good condition.
After a long time, Kong Xuan exhaled and said, "I was careless. The attack of the Saints is really extraordinary. I can't resist it at all. If it weren't for the backup plan left by the Master, I'm afraid I would have died. Now my mind is injured, and I'm afraid I can only exert half of my strength. The next step is up to you, Junior Brother."
Hearing this, Black Tortoise was relieved. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother. I will let the disciples of the three religions see how powerful I am. As long as there is a chance, I will kill several disciples of the three religions to avenge you and make Yuanshi and Zhunti feel sorry for you. I'd like to see if they are still embarrassed to fight."
After hearing this, Kong Xuan said, "Junior Brother, don't be careless. Xuandu and the other three have the same cultivation as you, and each of them has a magic weapon. What's more, Yuanshi and Zhunti should have given their Innate Five-Element Flags to Guangchengzi and the Pharmacist before they left. Xuandu is the only inner disciple of Lao Tzu. I'm afraid he also has a treasure to protect himself. You must be careful."
After the Black Tortoise heard this, he nodded. Now that he had awakened the memories of his previous life, he would naturally not be the same as before. Since he was reincarnated as a human, his cultivation had improved rapidly, but he rarely fought. Now that he could fight with Xuan Du and the other three, his blood was boiling, and his fighting spirit was faintly discernible. Although he was lazy by nature, he was also a warrior, an indomitable warrior.
… ….
In the camp of Zhou, Bo Yikao, Ji Fa, Xuandu, Burning Lamp, Guangchengzi, the Pharmacist, Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya were sitting in the big tent. As for the other disciples of the three religions, they basically went to rest and heal their wounds. Besides, they were enough to discuss the strategy of breaking through the pass. It was useless to have more people, so they could only be onlookers.
Bo Yikao looked at Xuandu and the other three people's solemn faces and said, "Today, it's all thanks to your fierce battle with Daoist Kong Xuan. Now that Daoist Kong Xuan is injured, he's definitely no match for you. When the time comes, as long as we break the Five Elements Army under Daoist Kong Xuan's command, we'll be able to break through this barrier. From then on, we'll drive straight into the hinterland of Yin Shang."
Although Bo Yikao said so, the four of them did not look better, which made Bo Yikao, Ji Fa, Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya very confused. Now that there was hope to break through the pass, why did the four of them still look so serious? Ji Fa could not help but ask, "You look serious. What's troubling you?"
Seeing Ji Fa's question, Bo Yikao, Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya also looked confused, Xuandu said, "Now that Kong Xuan is injured and can't exert all his strength, there is nothing to worry about. But the trouble is that besides Kong Xuan, there is also his junior fellow apprentice Taoist Xuangui in Jinji Ridge. This person has few achievements in the Great Desolation, but his cultivation is not inferior to ours. I'm afraid there will be another fierce battle."
Hearing this, Jiang Ziya frowned. After thinking for a long time, he still could not remember anything about Taoist Xuangui, so he asked Guang Chengzi, "Eldest Senior Fellow Apprentice, I have been cultivating for a long time, but I have not heard anything about the Great Desolation. I only know that Taoist Xuangui is the third disciple of River Styx, but he has not done anything amazing in the Great Desolation. Why are you so afraid of him?"
Guang Chengzi explained, "It is said that Taoist Xuangui is the incarnation of a strange beast called Xuangui in the Great Desolation. He is the reincarnation of the Primordial Demon God. He followed Wu Zu of the Human Tribe to practice Martial Arts and cultivated the Golden Body of Martial Arts. His physical defense alone is not inferior to that of the Primordial Lingbao. What's more, he is the disciple of Ancestor River Styx. How can he not have Lingbao to protect him? If you want to defeat him, how to break his defense is the biggest problem."
His physical body was comparable to that of the Primordial Lingbao? Shen Gongbao and Jiang Ziya were shocked when they heard this. There was such a person in the world. They knew the power of the Primordial Lingbao. How horrible his physical body was to be able to defend against the Primordial Lingbao? No wonder Xuandu and the other three did not show any joy even though Kong Xuan was injured. It turned out that the next opponent was also not easy to deal with. What made them more curious was that the two junior fellow apprentices of Ancestor River Styx were already so powerful, so how powerful would their eldest senior fellow apprentice be?
