River Styx looked at the Burning Lamp who bowed down to him and said calmly, "Burning Lamp, since you have made up your mind, I will officially accept you as my fourth official disciple today. The Ninth Grade Red Lotus of Fire is the symbol of the status of the second-generation disciples. Today, I will officially bestow it to you." Originally, there were only three Ninth Grade Red Lotuses of Fire cultivated. The Burning Lamp's was refined by River Styx from the Sixth Grade Red Lotus of Fire taken back from Kunpeng and two Third Grade Red Lotuses of Fire. Its power was weaker than that of Liu Er and the others.
Burning Lamp was overjoyed and reached out to receive the treasure bestowed by River Styx. He had worshiped Yuanshi for so long and had never received any good Lingbao from Yuanshi. However, as soon as he worshiped River Styx, he received a Top Grade Primordial Lingbao, which was really unpredictable. He was more convinced that he had made the right choice and looked forward to the Way of Origin promised by River Styx.
River Styx looked at Burning Lamp with an indifferent expression. To be honest, he appreciated Burning Lamp very much. The Way of Burning Lamp was the Way of Nirvana that he had comprehended. However, he worshiped Yuanshi and learned the Great Way of Jade Purity and practiced it to a very high level. Although the Great Way of Jade Purity was good, it conflicted with his own Great Way, so his cultivation progress was slow.
However, it was precisely because of the conflict between the Great Way of Jade Purity and the Way of Nirvana that Burning Lamp chopped out a Good Corpse and became a Quasi-saint master. Such understanding and perseverance were really hard to come by. What he lacked was an opportunity to soar to the sky. River Styx gave him this opportunity and Burning Lamp seized it. That was all.
As for Burning Lamp's betrayal, River Styx did not care. As the saying goes, if the ruler is not righteous, the minister will defect to a foreign country. If the father is not benevolent, the son will go to a foreign country. Burning Lamp had done his best for Chanism and Yuanshi, but Yuanshi had never really regarded Burning Lamp as his disciple. Since this was the case, it was normal for Burning Lamp to leave Yuanshi. There was no right or wrong.
Burning Lamp put away the Ninth-Grade Red Lotus of Hellfire and stood behind River Styx. As for Yuanshi's anger, he did not care at all. There was no guilt on his face. In the Great Desolation, there was no absolute right or wrong. Just like how Sanqing turned against each other for the sake of fate, today, Burning Lamp changed his mind for the sake of his future. Who could say that he was wrong?
Yuanshi looked at Burning Lamp angrily. The Burning Lamp's calmness made him even angrier. Manjushri and the other two had joined Buddhism, but they still felt guilty when they saw him. However, Burning Lamp did not feel the slightest bit of guilt. How could he not be angry? But now that Tendo was bound, he could not do anything in the Great Desolation. And even if he did, with River Styx around, it would be a waste of effort.
Yuanshi looked at River Styx and Burning Lamp, and then looked at Summon, Zhunti, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and Cihang. The anger on his face slowly turned into a bone-chilling coldness. Yuanshi snorted and said, "Humph! River Styx, Summon, Zhunti, you guys are really good at scheming. I, Yuanshi, will remember today's matter. I will definitely repay you in the future. "
After saying these harsh words, Yuanshi flicked his sleeves and left. In fact, Yuanshi was also very helpless. With Tendo's restraint, he could not do anything. Moreover, his disciple's betrayal made him lose face. After this incident, the vitality of the Chan Sect was greatly damaged. Now, only four of the twelve Golden Immortals were left, and a deputy leader had run away. Although they had obtained the fruits of victory in the Battle of Gods Investiture, they could not make up for such a loss.
When everything was settled, Summon and Zhunti led Manjushri and the other two to the west. Before leaving, Zhunti still glanced at the Burning Lamp. Compared with Manjushri and the other two, the Burning Lamp was the talent he wanted most. Unfortunately, River Styx intercepted him halfway. It seemed that he had to find a new candidate for the Buddha of the Past.
Although Buddhism was newly established, it was not very troublesome. Pharmacist was promoted to Pharmacist Buddha, one of the three supreme positions of Buddhism. Maitreya was promoted to Maitreya Buddha, one of the three supreme positions of Buddhism. Maitreya was promoted to Maitreya Buddha, one of the three supreme positions of Buddhism. Only the Buddha of the Past was missing. Now that Burning Lamp did not choose Buddhism, Zhunti did not know when he could find a candidate for the Buddha of the Past.
On the other side, in the Blood Sea, River Styx led Burning Lamp to the Blood Sea. Liu Er, Kong Xuan and Black Tortoise immediately greeted them. They all looked at the Burning Lamp. Seeing this, Burning Lamp stepped forward and saluted, "Greetings, three senior brothers." In fact, Burning Lamp was the senior of Liu Er and the other two, but he was the fourth one to be apprenticed to River Styx.
Liu Er, Kong Xuan and Black Tortoise were born later than him, but each of them was stronger than him. Liu Er was now a Demon God of Chaos, needless to say. Kong Xuan's Five-colored Divine Light was enough to make him unable to fight back. Black Tortoise's Golden Body of Martial Arts and Divine Sense of Martial Arts were not a match for him. As the saying goes, the one who reaches the top first. Calling the three senior brothers, Burning Lamp had nothing to complain about.
Liu Er and the other two found it strange that Burning Lamp called them senior brothers. But now Burning Lamp was their teacher's fourth disciple, which meant he was their junior brother. They could only accept this fact. However, Black Tortoise was quite happy. At least he was not the youngest one.
Looking at Liu Er, Kong Xuan, Black Tortoise and Burning Lamp, River Styx sighed with emotion. He was about to leave, and it was time to tell them about the Great Desolation. River Styx said, "Liu Er, Kong Xuan, Black Tortoise and Burning Lamp, since you are my disciples, I have something to tell you. Soon, I will leave the Great Desolation and go to the Chaos."
Hearing this, Liu Er, Kong Xuan and Black Tortoise were surprised. After all, River Styx had been to the Chaos before, so they were not surprised. However, Burning Lamp was different. He did not expect River Styx to leave the Great Desolation and go to the Chaos. Naturally, he was shocked. He thought, "Is there something in the Chaos that can attract River Styx?"
River Styx ignored their different degrees of surprise and continued, "When I went to the Chaos before, I found some secrets. There are not only powerful chaotic beasts, but also other worlds. Although I only found two Micro Worlds, I believe there must be other worlds in the Great Desolation. Therefore, I plan to go to the Chaos again. This time, I don't know how long I will be gone, so I have something to tell you in advance."
Hearing River Styx's words, the four became serious. River Styx looked at Liu Er and said, "Liu Er, although you have achieved the Real Body of the Chaos Demonic God, your foundation is not stable. It will take a long time to make up for it completely. Now that I have to leave for the Chaos, from today on, the Blood Sea lineage will be handed over to you. I hope you will live up to my expectations."
Hearing this, Liu Er no longer laughed and just nodded heavily. Although he knew how powerful River Styx was, he was still reluctant to leave River Styx because he did not know when he would come back. After all, he was no longer the little monkey who liked to pester River Styx, but the real Chaos Demonic God. He knew what his responsibility was.
After instructing Liu Er, River Styx turned to Kong Xuan and said, "Kong Xuan, you are my most trusted disciple. I have nothing to instruct you. Since you have comprehended your own Way of Proving Tao, you should walk on it firmly. As for the other Tao you have comprehended, I will give you eight words: Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period, Hundred Schools of Thought."
After hearing this, Kong Xuan became thoughtful. He had a feeling that the eight words River Styx said were related to his Way of Proving Tao. However, he felt that the Chance had not come yet. Since River Styx had said so, Kong Xuan naturally remembered it deeply in his heart. Tendo is unpredictable. When the Chance arrives, everything will come naturally. Kong Xuan was not in a hurry.
As for Black Tortoise, River Styx told him, "Black Tortoise, you practice Martial Arts, but the Way of the Origin is more difficult to comprehend than the Way of the Immortal. Fortunately, you have an endless stream of Merit, so your Golden Body of Martial Arts will not stop improving. Maybe you can reach the realm of the Way of the Origin. However, Martial Arts should not be neglected. I hope you can give me a surprise when you come back next time."
The last one was Burning Lamp. To be honest, at this moment, Burning Lamp was extremely nervous. After all, he had just become River Styx's disciple. The relationship between master and disciple, loyalty and reliability, were all rootless duckweeds. Although River Styx had promised to impart the Way of the Origin to him, he did not say when he would impart it to him. Moreover, Burning Lamp's cultivation was much lower than that of Liu Er and the other two. He did not even see the shadow of his own Way of the Origin. Even if River Styx did not impart the Way of the Origin to him now, Burning Lamp would not be surprised.
However, how could River Styx's idea be predicted by Burning Lamp? River Styx looked at Burning Lamp and said, "Burning Lamp, although you have just become my disciple, I treat all of you equally. You are the incarnation of the Spiritual Coffin and have comprehended the Way of Nirvana. In the past, you practiced the Way of the Pure Jade, which is in conflict with your Way of Nirvana. Therefore, I have to abolish the Way of the Pure Jade that you have practiced."
Burning Lamp was shocked when he heard this. Abolish the Way of the Pure Jade? This was equivalent to cutting off one of his own arms. River Styx also saw Burning Lamp's hesitation and continued, "Burning Lamp, although the Way of the Pure Jade is good, it is not your own Way. The Way of Nirvana is your foundation. Although the Way of the Sanqing is different, they all have the power of creation. Creation and Nirvana coexist. Unless you can master the two, it will be difficult for you to achieve the Great Way in your life."
Burning Lamp suddenly understood. No wonder he was at the peak of the Daluo Jinxian when he became Yuanshi's disciple. It was not until the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors that he barely attained the Way of the Quasi-saint. So this was the root of everything. Understanding this, Burning Lamp naturally did not care about the Way of the Pure Jade. Compared to the Way of the Origin, the Way of the Pure Jade was nothing. In an instant, Burning Lamp abolished his Way of the Pure Jade. This was a rare decision.
