The Tongtian Sect Leader's aggressive challenge shocked the entire Great Desolation. Since the birth of the Sages, there had never been a battle between the Sages. The only one who had fought with the Sages was River Styx. Now, the Tongtian Sect Leader had challenged Yuanshi to a battle using the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation. This would definitely be an earth-shattering battle, but many people were not optimistic about the outcome of this battle.
In the Great Desolation, the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, Zhouxing Formation, Twelve Divine Fiends Formation, and True Martial Origin Formation were the four major formations. The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was so powerful that it could not be broken without the Four Sages. Although the Tongtian Sect Leader had a high cultivation level, the Four Sages were all present to break the formation. Lao Tzu, Yuanshi, Summon, and Zhunti from the West. The Four Sages were here to break the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see this, but the Tongtian Sect Leader still challenged them with this formation. Did he expect that Lao Tzu and Yuanshi would not join forces with the Two Sages of the West because of Sanqing? No one could figure it out. Yuanshi, Lao Tzu, Summon, and Zhunti from Mount Shouyang could not figure out why the Tongtian Sect Leader dared to challenge them with this formation.
Filled with confusion, Yuanshi came to Mount Shouyang. When he saw Lao Tzu, he waved his sleeves and released the disciples of the Chan Sect who had their Five Qis sealed. He asked hurriedly, "Big Brother, can you see if these disciples can recover their cultivation?" Anyway, Yuanshi could not do anything about it.
Laozi glanced at the disciples in the hall and sighed, "Sigh, what a Nine Yellow Tunes River Formation. It actually crippled their cultivation. If they stay in the formation for any longer, I'm afraid they will never be able to recover." Laozi's eyes were as sharp as torches, so he could see the state of these disciples at a glance.
Yuanshi was overjoyed when he heard this. However, before he could rejoice for long, Lao Tzu said, "Now that their Five Qis have been sealed and their Three Qis have been removed, their previous cultivation has been completely destroyed. They can only start from scratch. Fortunately, their understanding of Daluo Jinxian is still there. They only need one Nine Transformations Golden Pill to restore their cultivation to the level of Daluo Jinxian. However, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to return to their peak state. If they want to fully recover their cultivation, they will need to slowly cultivate again."
The joy on Yuanshi's face disappeared when he heard this. The Nine Transformations Golden Pill could be used to create Daluo Jinxian experts. However, this was only the initial stage of Daluo Jinxian. If they wanted to fully recover their cultivation, it would be impossible unless they spent a large amount of resources. However, there were not many resources that could help them recover their cultivation in a short period of time other than the Nine Transformations Golden Pill.
The Celestial Court's Peach of Immortality, Zhen Yuanzi's Ginseng Fruit, and River Styx's Yellow Plum. Zhen Yuanzi was on good terms with River Styx and would not give them to them. River Styx was even more out of the question. The only thing left was the Celestial Court's Peach of Immortality. However, Hao Tian and Yao Chi of the Celestial Court did not have a good relationship with the Sages. Hao Tian might not give them the Peach of Immortality. Since Hao Tian was the Master of the Celestial Court appointed by Hongjun Daozu, the Sages could not snatch the Peach of Immortality.
Lao Tzu did not care about Yuanshi's thoughts. He waved his hand and took out a gourd. He poured out some Nine Transformations Golden Pills and distributed them to the disciples of the Human and Chan Sects. Lao Tzu, who had always been quiet, showed a pained expression. The Nine Transformations Golden Pill was different from other pills. Not only was it extremely difficult to refine, but many of the ingredients were also very difficult to find in the Great Desolation. The Nine Transformations Golden Pill that he had stored was one less pill after another.
After the disciples of the Human and Chan Sects had taken the Nine Transformations Golden Pill, Lao Tzu waved his hand and sent a ray of green light into each of their bodies to help them digest the pill. Then, he waved his hand and sent them to a quiet room where they could recover their cultivation in peace. Only Lao Tzu and Yuanshi were left in the hall.
Yuanshi looked at Lao Tzu and said, "Big Brother, the Tongtian is going to set up the Fairy-Slaying Sword Formation at the Boundary Tablet Pass in a month. I feel that this is a little strange. Although the Fairy-Slaying Sword Formation is said to be unbreakable by only the Four Sages, it is not difficult to gather the Four Sages now that the Human and Chan Sects of the West have joined forces. The Tongtian is not arrogant and conceited.
Lao Tzu frowned when he heard this. Yuanshi's words were exactly what he could not understand. Why would the Tongtian Sect Master still want to set up the formation when he knew that they would lose? Could it be that he simply wanted to fight with them? This should not be possible. Then why? Lao Tzu thought for a long time but could not think of a more plausible reason.
At this moment, Summon and Zhunti's voices came from outside the mountain. "Daoist Friend Lao Tzu, Daoist Friend Yuanshi, we are here to visit you." Lao Tzu and Yuanshi looked at each other when they heard this. Then, they went outside the mountain in a flash. Summon and Zhunti's purpose for visiting was obvious. This time, the Daluo Jinxian of the Human and Chan Sects were not the only ones who had their three flowers cut off.
Lao Tzu looked at Summon and Zhunti and said, "Two Daoist Friend, please come in." Lao Tzu and Yuanshi brought Summon and Zhunti back into the mountain. The four of them sat opposite each other. Lao Tzu looked at the two sages and asked, "Two Daoist Friend, what brings you to Shouyang Mountain?"
When Zhunti heard this, he cursed in his heart. How could Lao Tzu not know their purpose of visit? But now that he had a favor to ask, he could only say, "Daoist Friend, as you know, in the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, the elite disciples of the Three Sects had their three flowers cut off. They sealed the five Qi in their chests and lost their cultivation. Daoist Friend has a pill called the Nine Transformations Golden Pill, which can help them recover their cultivation. So, we are here to ask for a few."
When Lao Tzu heard this, he looked indifferent and said, "Daoist Friend, you may not know this, but the refining process of the Nine Transformations Golden Pill is very complicated. Many of the materials are hard to find. The injured disciples of the Human and Chan Sects also need this pill. We really don't have any extra pills to give you." Since when did it become so easy to ask for the Nine Transformations Golden Pill?
When Summon heard this, he looked bitter and said, "Daoist Friend, don't worry. We are not asking for your pills for free. The Western Sect has a treasure called the Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues. We have accumulated a lot of pond water. It can help the disciples of the Three Sects recover some of their cultivation and also heal some of their physical injuries. What do you think, Daoist Friend?"
When Lao Tzu heard this, he nodded. He had heard of the Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues. Now that the Western Sect was willing to share this treasure, it was not bad. In this way, the disciples of the Three Sects could at least recover half of their cultivation. Although the water in the Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues was not as good as the Nine Transformations Golden Pill, Lao Tzu did not want to fall out with them now that the Three Sects had joined forces.
With the Nine Transformations Golden Pill and the Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues, the disciples of the Three Sects recovered most of their cultivation in a few days. The rest could only rely on themselves to cultivate again. However, when he saw that the Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues had become empty, Summon felt distressed. The Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues had been accumulated by the Western Sect for many years. Now, it was all gone. On the other hand, Zhunti looked at the disciples of the Sect of Enlightenment and pondered.
When he was observing the disciples of the Three Sects recovering their cultivation in the Eight Treasures Pond of Merits and Virtues, Zhunti unexpectedly found that there were disciples of the Sect of Enlightenment who were fated to be with the Western Sect. This surprised him. However, now that the Three Sects had joined forces, Zhunti could only restrain himself. However, when the Battle of Gods Investiture was over, a strange smile appeared on Zhunti's face.
After sending away the disciples of the Three Sects, the four of them began to discuss the matter of fighting the Tongtian Sect Leader in a month. When the Four Sages joined forces, even the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation would be broken. However, they could not figure out why the Tongtian Sect Leader did this. The Tongtian Sect Leader should have known this, but he still did it. Was it because of self-confidence or something else?
Of course, they could not figure out the reason. Although the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation had been repaired by River Styx, its power had increased by a lot. Now, in addition to being able to suppress fate, the formation could not be broken without the Four Sages. This was where the Tongtian Sect Leader's confidence came from.
