Chapter 158
While Tong Tian and Yuanshi were arguing outside Jinao Island.
The powerful beings in the Primordial world were all paying attention to the situation here.
In the past, Saints had never taken action against each other.
But not long ago, Nuwa attacked the West and beat Jieyin and Zhunti, which shocked all the powerful beings in the Primordial world.
Now Tong Tian and Yuanshi were also directly confronting each other.
All the powerful beings were secretly surprised, and no one had expected that the struggle for the Investiture of the Gods among the three sects would develop to this point.
Perhaps this Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods concerning the three sects would be much more terrifying than the previous several world calamities.
After all, in previous calamities, no Saint had ever taken the field to fight each other.
Everyone was curious about which direction the struggle for the Investiture of the Gods among the three sects would evolve.
Deep in Chaos.
The Zixiao Palace floated quietly in it, standing tall, surrounded by misty purple Qi.
The tall and magnificent gate emitted an ancient and solemn aura, carrying the vicissitudes of endless years.
Daoist Hongjun sat cross-legged in the palace, his body blending with the aura of the Heavenly Dao, silent and deep.
An aura that made all living beings fear radiated from his body, as if he were the master of this Chaos, the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao.
Suddenly feeling the movement from the Primordial world, those long-closed eyes opened slightly, and in the eyes, the universe flickered, and earth, fire, water, and wind flashed by.
That gaze seemed to be able to penetrate all illusions and perceive the essence of all things.
"Yuanshi and Tong Tian are fighting again? The last time was a small scuffle, but what is the cause this time?"
With confusion, Hongjun raised his head and looked at the Chaos outside.
His gaze crossed the limits of time and space, passed through the endless Chaos, cast onto the Primordial world, and arrived at Jinao Island.
A trace of confusion appeared in Hongjun's calm gaze.
The last time Nuwa attacked the West was enough to give him a headache.
He didn't expect Tong Tian and Yuanshi to break out into conflicts one after another before the Investiture of the Gods had reached its later stages.
"I thought that handing the Investiture of the Gods to Yuanshi to preside over would not have any mistakes. Currently, it seems that there may be variables in the integration of the Dao."
Currently focusing on integrating the Dao, it was inconvenient to pay attention to the affairs on the Primordial world, so Hongjun had to deduce the source of the variables.
"Heavenly secrets are obscure?"
Hongjun frowned slightly, not knowing what tricks the Heavenly Dao was playing again.
Mount Shouyang.
Eight Views Palace.
Taiqing Laozi sat in meditation on a prayer mat, his face calm, his eyes slightly closed.
Disturbed by the movement from the Primordial world, he opened his eyes slightly.
He whispered softly to himself.
"Are these two Saint's mights from Second Brother and Third Brother?"
Following that, he looked in the direction of Jinao Island.
"Second Brother took action last time because of the Nine-Dragon Fire Cover, what is it because of this time?"
Pondering slightly.
"There must be no more complications, adding variables in vain."
Thinking of this, his figure submerged into the Chaos and disappeared from the palace.
Chaos Domain.
Palace of the Empress Wa.
Nuwa lay on her side, resting on the imperial couch, a trace of fatigue on her beautiful face.
The light gauze curtains drifted with the wind, and wisps of blue smoke rose from the incense burner, filled with a faint fragrance.
Feeling the two Saint's mights coming from the Primordial world.
Nuwa's eyelashes trembled a few times, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Afterwards, she stretched her delicate body slightly and sat up slightly.
Her beautiful eyes looked towards the Primordial world, her expression carrying a bit of thought.
"Yuanshi Tianzun ran to Jinao Island to fight with Senior Brother Tong Tian again. This time it is probably for the sake of Daoist Huanglong. It seems that the falling out of the Three Pure Ones is inevitable."
Nuwa had always let the Profound Heaven Fire Phoenix, Jin Ning, pay attention to the Investiture of the Gods of the three sects. She already knew about Huanglong dying at Gu Xiu's hands.
She sighed.
"If Senior Brother Tong Tian had the courage he has now at that time, he would not have been forced to sign the Investiture of the Gods at the Zixiao Palace."
"Could it be related to that junior?"
Thinking of this, Nuwa looked towards Jinao Island.
Thinking of Gu Xiu wanting her to help the Jie Sect in the Investiture of the Gods before, Nuwa smiled gently.
"That kid looks honest but is not honest at all, and has many secrets."
"I really want to peel him layer by layer and see how many secrets he is still hiding."
"But thanks to him, I saw the true faces of the four Saints. Let me see how you, little guy, intend to deal with the current situation."
At this time.
On Jinao Island, Gu Xiu also came out of his cave dwelling to watch the battle between Tong Tian and Yuanshi.
This is a battle of Saints, which has not happened for endless years.
Thanks to the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, which involves the Saint's orthodoxy, leading to schemes among the Saints.
Yuanshi Tianzun happened to come to the door, so he could witness it with his own eyes.
The wind and clouds in the sky changed, and the vast Saint's might swept out, making people feel an incomparably terrifying pressure.
Fortunately, Jinao Island had a protective formation set up by Tong Tian himself, so the disciples on the island were not affected much.
Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun take out the Pangu Banner, that terrifying aura instantly disrupted the atmosphere of the world.
Gu Xiu praised in his heart.
The Pangu Banner is worthy of being one of the three known supreme treasures of the Primordial world. Just taking it out, the atmosphere of the world was disrupted, and the surrounding space was almost torn apart.
Withdrawing his gaze, he looked at the Three Xiao sisters beside him.
He saw that the three of them had solemn expressions, their eyes fixed on the battle in the sky outside Jinao Island.
Yun Xiao and Qiong Xiao were fine.
Seeing that even Bi Xiao, who was usually lively and playful, was like this.
Gu Xiu spoke: "Master, two Uncle-Masters, don't worry, Grandmaster has the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, so he will be fine."
Hearing Gu Xiu's words, the expressions of the Three Xiao sisters eased slightly.
Yun Xiao looked worried and said: "If it's a one-on-one fight, I believe the Sect Leader is not inferior to any Saint. But if, as you said before, the Ren and Chan Sects have already joined forces with the Western Sect, I am afraid that those three Saints will also come. At that time, no matter how strong the Sect Leader is, it will be difficult to deal with the siege of four Saints."
Bi Xiao nodded gently, her brows slightly furrowed, and suddenly she thought of an idea: "By the way, Gu Xiu, Empress Nuwa seems to like you very much, and Yang Chan is also Empress Nuwa's disciple. Can we ask Empress Nuwa for help?"
Gu Xiu smiled; he would like to, but he couldn't.
"Uncle-Master, although Empress Nuwa appreciates me, this matter concerns the three sects, and the struggle between Saints. It is probably difficult to get Empress Nuwa's help."
Yun Xiao also spoke: "Empress Nuwa has a noble status and should not be easily disturbed. Besides, this is a matter of our three sects, and Empress Nuwa has no reason to get involved. If we accidentally anger Empress Nuwa, the situation will only get worse."
Hearing this, Bi Xiao nodded, also feeling it made sense: "Then Eldest Sister, what should we do now? Just watch?"
Qiong Xiao on the side cast her gaze towards Gu Xiu, her beautiful eyes lingering on him for a moment.
"Junior Nephew, seeing you calm and composed from the beginning, do you have any good ideas?"
Yun Xiao and Bi Xiao also focused their gazes on Gu Xiu.
Gu Xiu shook his head and smiled indifferently.
"Uncle-Master, Master, we cannot intervene in the battle between Saints at all. I am not worried at all because I know this fight won't last long. Someone will come to stop it soon. We can just enjoy this rare battle of Saints with peace of mind. Maybe we can comprehend some supernatural powers or techniques from it."
