When Daoist Discipline saw Daoist Qing Shuo strike down with his jade ruler, he was shocked. He thought that Daoist Qing Shuo had discovered that he had digested Daoist Discipline's experience and memories.
He subconsciously circulated his cultivation and left behind a seemingly solid figure on the spot. Meanwhile, he turned into an illusory shadow and escaped into the cave.
While he was fleeing, his mind was slightly distracted, and the bewilderment in his eyes suddenly receded, becoming gloomy and deep.
It was as if he had become another person from the inside out at this moment.
At this moment, he thought angrily, "It seems that I still can't hide from Tianxia. I thought that since Zhang Ting wouldn't come personally to sign the contract here, I would have a chance. I didn't expect him to be so troublesome."
The situation just now seemed to be that the Outer God thought that he had swallowed him, but that was not the case at all. Instead, he had used the Outer God.
In order to make it easier to swallow the Outer God, he would sometimes deliberately let the Outer God think that he had absorbed his experience and memories. After the Outer God had completely accepted these, he would then swallow them. At that time, there would be no resistance at all.
In a sense, it was not wrong for the Outer God to think that he was the dominant side. This was because before he completely swallowed, this was the truth.
Therefore, he used the Outer God to sign the Life Seal. Because it was not his original body, even if he broke the oath, it would not implicate him.
However, this could not be hidden for long.
This was because if he endured and did not attack the Outer God until the end, then he might really be assimilated by the Outer God. Therefore, he would definitely try to swallow it. Once he did so, it would mean that the Outer God had died. Then, the Life Seal on the contract would naturally change. Therefore, his plan was to delay until Tianxia encountered a great enemy and had no time to control him.
This was because it involved the changes in his Dao. Ordinary people would not be able to see through such a scheme. Daoist Qing Shuo actually did not see through the mystery in the beginning.
However, just because he could not, it did not mean that Zhang Yu could not.
When Zhang Yu saw the contract, in order to ensure that it was safe, he used the Life Seal to sense the contract. However, he found that the person in front of him did not feel like he had made an agreement with him. The person who sensed it was another person. This contradictory feeling immediately made him realize that there was a problem here. Therefore, he used the Life Seal to look for the mystery and immediately found the problem.
If Daoist Ji Zhi's cultivation was profound and his Dao pure, then he would not be able to see through him. However, this method did not focus on self-cultivation and purification of dao. There were many loopholes. Therefore, with the help of the Life Seal's, he quickly confirmed that this person had two Outer Gods in the same body and had not completely merged into one.......
At this moment, Daoist Ji Zhi looked back. It seemed that the shadow he left behind had taken effect. The jade ruler did not come at him again. Instead, it directly pressed down on the shadow and shattered it in an instant. However, when the jade ruler was lifted again, he could not help but be dazed. Then, he was shocked to find that the jade ruler was still hanging above his head.
He hurriedly used the Life Seal again. Shadows with the same Qi as him flew out from his body in an attempt to attract the ruler. The jade ruler fell neither too quickly nor too slowly, slapping the shadows away one by one. However, every time it fell, for some reason, after it was lifted again, it would always come to the top of his head.
At this moment, he had already transmigrated into his own cave. When he arrived here, his heart relaxed slightly. After all, this was his old nest that he had been operating for a long time. In these two days, he had also made some arrangements. With a hand seal, layers upon layers of arrays rose up and circled around the cave like a hard shell, protecting the cave dwelling's surroundings.
He did not expect to use this to block Daoist Qing Shuo. He only wanted to buy some time. He had already made the decision to leave this place in case his plan failed. Through the god on the sacrificial altar, he could transfer his vital qi to a faraway place. That was also the escape route he had left behind.
As long as no one from Tianxia had gone there, then no matter what, they would not be able to find him in a short period of time. After reaching there, he could find a way to hide again until Tianxia's enemies had no time to care about him.
However, even though his thoughts were correct, the subsequent development of the situation was far beyond his expectations. The jade ruler was gently pressed down, and the great formation that he originally thought would be able to resist for a moment was instantly shattered. Subsequently, when it was raised again, it was still hanging high above his head, and was still pressing down on him with a calm and composed manner.
At this time, he could not help but have an illusion. It seemed that no matter how he escaped, even if his spiritual power was exhausted, it was impossible for him to escape from under the ruler.
After a cultivator plucked the superior merit, although in theory, there was still a certain possibility that he would be defeated by Xuan Zun whose merit was not as good as his own, in fact, such a situation rarely happened. This was because the former was in an absolute position in terms of spiritual power and cultivation. Under the operation of the Taoist method, the inferior Xuan Zun could not resist at all.
At this moment, Jiao Yao saw that although Daoist Zhi Ji's aura was surging, he still stayed in the same place. Because he was frightened by the jade ruler, everything he saw was reflected in his mind. It did not really happen at all, so he stood leisurely on the side and did not make a move at all.
In the field, the jade ruler fell neither too fast nor too slow, and finally knocked on Daoist Zhi Ji's forehead. His mind's reflection seemed to suddenly turn solid. At the same time, a burst of light scattered from the point of contact.
Daoist Zhi Ji could not help but tremble all over, standing still in the same place.
After a while, cracks appeared all over his body, and strands of light emerged from within. After that, strands of divine aura scattered along with the light. If one looked carefully, one would be able to see that there seemed to be a deep and gloomy figure within. It struggled for a few moments before disappearing.
As if having a long dream, Ji Zhi woke up from the depths of his dream. He found that he wasn't dead and was still standing there. He was still in a state of shock and said: "Why did you spare me?"
Daoist Qing Shuo slowly withdrew the jade ruler and said, "Because this poor Daoist thought that it was easier for you to restrain yourself than him."
Just now, he destroyed the real Daoist Zhi Ji with his ruler. At this moment, the one who was left was the Outer Deity that was originally used as a cover. Now, it was really controlling this body.
This Outer Deity was the one who signed the contract. Since that was the case, there was no harm in sparing his life. Now, he needed to fight against Yuan Xia. As long as it was a cultivator who was under Tianxia's control and was a useful fighting force, he could be temporarily pardoned.
Daoist Zhi Ji bowed and said sincerely, "Thank you for your mercy, Supreme Venerable."
Daoist Qing Shuo said, "I'm keeping you because I want to use you. In the future, you can't do anything against the rules. Otherwise, there will be a contract to punish you. Also, you need to restrain those rogue cultivators. Don't let them do anything against the rules."
Daoist Zhi Ji had just narrowly escaped death, and he was completely beaten into submission. He bowed and said, "From now on, I'm Zhi Ji. I will obey all the orders of Tianxia."
Daoist Qing Shuo nodded and said, "You're on your own." He glanced at Jiao Yao and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiao, let's go."
After he finished speaking, he waved his jade ruler, and a ray of golden light fell. Jiao Yao saw that the matter was over, so he chuckled and walked into the golden light. Then, he disappeared along with the light.
Daoist Zhi Ji waited for the two to leave, and he couldn't help but feel lucky. If it wasn't for Daoist Qing Shuo, he might have been swallowed by the God of Zhi Ji.
He thought for a while, then turned and returned to the cave. He immediately sent a ray of spiritual light toward the altar here. Using the god's message, he contacted his two disciples and sent them an order. He said that he had made an agreement with Tianxia. If they wanted to kill the gods again, they must have Tianxia's permission, and they were not allowed to act on their own.
Daoist Ling and Daoist Qing Shuo could guess that their teacher was oppressed by Tianxia and had to do this. However, they didn't dare to ask about such a thing that would damage their teacher's reputation. They could only do what their teacher said.
After Daoist Qing Shuo returned to the upper level, he handed the agreement to Zhang Yu and said, "Keeping this person may be stable for a while, but it's hard to know the pros and cons in the long run."
Zhang Yu said, "It's better to make mistakes than to make mistakes. This person is an outer god. Although he has entered Tianxia, in order to prove himself, he will definitely work harder. We still need him in the battle with Yuan Xia."
Daoist Qing Shuo nodded. With the agreement, he wasn't afraid of what this person could do.
At this moment, a ray of light flashed in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it fell on Zhang Yu's body and merged with him. This was his life imprint returning from the void.
From the news brought by the life imprint clone, Lin Tingzhi had already cleared out the two foreign lands in the void. Shouzheng from Shouzheng Palace, Lu Xingjie, and the others contributed a lot this time.
Zhang Yu thought for a while, then picked up a brush and wrote a bestowment agreement. He handed it to Daoist Ming Zhou who was standing at the side. The latter cupped his hands, and after a short while, a dazzling rainbow light floated down and dissipated in a flash. In front of him, there were five jade jars, each of which contained five types of mystical grains.
As the second administrator, as long as the situation was in accordance with the Xuanting's rules of reward and punishment, then he could make the decision to bestow mystical grains.
Lu Xingjie and the others had contributed this time, and in the battle with Yuan Xia, there was no reason not to let them out to fight. Instead of continuing to punish them, it was better to bestow mystical grains directly.
With a change of mind, a white gas floated out from his body and landed on the ground, turning into Daoist Bai Kun. He said, "Fellow Daoist, please make a trip on my behalf."
Daoist Bai Kun smiled and said, "This is easy." He rolled up his sleeves and kept the mystical grains into his sleeves. He then called for Yuandu Xuantu, and a golden light descended, and his figure disappeared in a flash.
On a certain planet, Lu Xingjie and the others were gathered together. Before Lin Tingzhi left, he told them to wait here, saying that there would be an edict from the Xuanting. At this moment, they saw the golden light descending from the altar. After it dissipated, they saw Daoist Bai Kun standing there with a horsetail whisk in his hand.
Everyone greeted him with respect. Among them, Daoist Xue was the most respectful, and his greeting was also meticulous.
Daoist Bai Kun smiled and said, "You may dispense with the formalities. Today, all of you have contributed. The Xuanting will bestow mystical grains, and also allow you to cultivate for a period of time." As he spoke, he waved his horsetail whisk, and five jars of mystical grains landed in front of the five people.
When Lu Xingjie saw this, he was delighted, and hurriedly bowed again to express his gratitude.
Daoist Bai Kun said, "Everyone, there are more than these two foreign domains in the void. You will have to do your best. Also, the Xuanting has calculated that there might be a foreign enemy coming here in a few days. You will have to be careful."
