Chapter 20: Who killed Ding Guang Xian

Sensing a slight fluctuation in Gu Xiu's emotions, Yun Xiao's beautiful eyes were suspicious.

"Gu Xiu, what are you thinking about?"

Gu Xiu withdrew his thoughts: "Master, I have something I want to tell you."

Yun Xiao was curious: "Tell me and let me hear it. If it's an excessive request, I won't agree."

"Master, what are you thinking?"

Gu Xiu originally wanted to tell her about Ding Guang Xian wanting to kill him, but suddenly a thumping sound rang out between heaven and earth.

This was the sound of the golden bell summoning disciples on Golden Turtle Island.

Yun Xiao originally wanted to hear what Gu Xiu wanted to tell her.

Hearing the bell, she frowned slightly, her eyes suspicious.

This summoning golden bell is only struck for major events and when preaching, but Tong Tian has not preached to his disciples for tens of thousands of years, and this golden bell has not rung for tens of thousands of years either.

"Suddenly striking the summoning golden bell, could it be that the master intends to preach to the disciples?" Qiong Xiao asked.

Yun Xiao pondered slightly; she was also not sure.

"The master has not preached for tens of thousands of years; suddenly striking the summoning golden bell must have a reason. Let's go and see."

"Gu Xiu, keep up." Seeming to have been getting along very well with Gu Xiu recently, Bi Xiao did not forget to call Gu Xiu.

Immediately, Gu Xiu and the Three Xiao sisters went to Golden Turtle Island together.

This was his first time participating in such a major event, so he went to join in the fun and see the world; he would find an opportunity to talk about Ding Guang Xian's matter later.

The Jie Sect preaching square is vast and magnificent, capable of accommodating ten thousand immortals.

The ground is paved with bluestone, and every piece of bluestone exudes an ancient aura, carrying endless Dao rhyme.

Tall stone pillars stand around the square, with huge bright pearls embedded at the top, and the Jie Sect's teachings, as well as various immortal birds and strange beasts, exotic flowers and plants, are carved on the pillars.

Directly in front is a magnificent high platform, with steps made of bluestone, layered one upon another, like a ladder to heaven; that is where Tong Tian usually preaches and teaches.

When Gu Xiu and the Three Xiao sisters arrived, the square was already full of people, all whispering and discussing.

"The teacher has not preached to us for tens of thousands of years. This time summoning everyone, he must be going to preach to us."

"I have not broken through for ten thousand years. This time the teacher preaches, I must listen carefully."

The disciples were looking forward to it with reverence and anticipation.

Gu Xiu followed the Three Xiao sisters to find Duo Bao and the Three Great Holy Mothers.

"Senior Brother Duo Bao, three Senior Sisters, why did the master suddenly summon us?"

"Junior Sister Yun Xiao, we don't know either."

Duo Bao and the Three Great Holy Mothers shook their heads in unison; they were also confused themselves.

Even the Four Great Direct Disciples did not know, so Gu Xiu had to wait with the Three Xiao sisters.

He noticed that there were only six of the Seven Attendant Immortals on the side; just as he thought, Ding Guang Xian did not return at all.

The golden bell contains the power of the Saint; once the bell rings, it is enough to spread throughout the Primordial.

General disciples would rush over when they heard the golden bell ring; Ding Guang Xian, as one of the Seven Attendant Immortals, even if he really went to play with the water tribe, would not dare to ignore it.

While suspicious, Tong Tian Jiaozhu appeared, and the disciples below said in unison.

"Disciples, pay respects to the teacher!"

This was Gu Xiu's first time seeing Tong Tian.

A green Taoist robe, sleeves fluttering, every move and gesture, the Dao method is natural.

Purple energy condensed around his body, his temperament was indifferent, and he landed on the futon on the high platform.

The Three Pure Ones were transformed from Pangu's primordial spirit.

Tong Tian represents Pangu's youthful passion and courage.

Yuanshi represents the paranoia and stubbornness of middle age.

Taiqing represents the stability and indifference of old age.

Therefore, Tong Tian looks very young, passionate, and motivated, daring to snatch a glimmer of life for all living beings from heaven.

Sitting on the futon on the high platform, Tong Tian glanced at the people below, his gaze deep like the vast stars, as if he could see through the essence of all things in the world.

He spoke indifferently.

"Today I called you here because I want to tell you one thing: the Great Calamity of Heaven and Earth has arrived. Chang Er Ding Guang Xian did not listen to advice to retreat and meditate on the Yellow Court Sutra to cultivate his heart and nature, but sneaked out, and has now fallen."

Hearing that Ding Guang Xian was dead, the disciples had different expressions.

Especially Gu Xiu and Bi Xiao, who were full of confusion.

They had seen Ding Guang Xian leave with their own eyes and flee toward the East Sea; how could he be dead?

Gu Xiu could not figure it out; this was something that did not exist at all in the Investiture of the Gods.

It should be that he blocked Ding Guang Xian, changed some things, and caused Ding Guang Xian to die.

"Teacher, how did Ding Guang Xian die?" Wu Yun Xian walked out and asked.

"The calamity energy of heaven and earth is permeating, it concerns the Great Calamity, and the heavenly secrets are shielded; even the Saint cannot deduce it, only knowing that something happened in the East Sea." Tong Tian said softly, but the voice exploded in everyone's ears like thunder.

The disciples were shocked; the East Sea is the territory of the Jie Sect, and Ding Guang Xian is not weak; who could kill him?

"Teacher, we must find the murderer and avenge Ding Guang Xian!" The fact that Ding Guang Xian was a traitor had not yet been exposed, so many disciples were filled with righteous indignation.

Seeing that many disciples were emotionally agitated, Tong Tian shouted: "All be quiet, Ding Guang Xian did not listen to advice and suffered this calamity, but perhaps there is still a turning point in this matter. When practicing the Ten Thousand Immortals Array, I handed the Six-Soul Banner to Ding Guang Xian and let him be the banner holder. At the moment of his fall, the Six-Soul Banner must have captured his soul, so Duo Bao, Jin Ling, Gui Ling, Wu Dang, and the Three Xiao sisters, you go to the surroundings of the East Sea to find the Six-Soul Banner, and you will know what happened to Ding Guang Xian."

"Others, retreat well on Golden Turtle Island, meditate on the Yellow Court Sutra, cultivate your heart and nature, and wait for the Great Calamity to pass."

"Follow the teacher's decree!"

The Six-Soul Banner is the banner of the Ten Thousand Immortals Array; without the Six-Soul Banner, the Ten Thousand Immortals Array is incomplete, and its power is greatly reduced.

Duo Bao and the Three Great Holy Mothers did not dare to be negligent.

After leaving Golden Turtle Island, the Four Great Direct Disciples came over.

"Three Xiao sisters, the Six-Soul Banner concerns whether our sect's Ten Thousand Immortals Array is complete; we must find it back. Let's split up and search around the East Sea."

Yun Xiao nodded, and then Duo Bao and the Three Great Holy Mothers transformed into streams of light and flew in different directions.

"Gu Xiu, you go back to the Three Immortals Island alone. I and your two Uncle-Masters will go to find the whereabouts of the Six-Soul Banner."

Seeing Yun Xiao turn around, Gu Xiu showed a gentle smile.

"Master, how can such a thing be without me."

As he said this, he gave Bi Xiao a look.

Bi Xiao understood.

"Yes, Eldest Sister, your disciple is already a Golden Immortal and is stronger than the average Golden Immortal. Why don't we also split up to search? You and Second Sister in a group, and I and your precious disciple in a group."

Yun Xiao was suspicious of her disciple; when did he get along so well with Bi Xiao that Bi Xiao even spoke for him?

"Very well, we will search on the East Sea. If there is anything, we will contact each other."

She was not at ease with Bi Xiao, but with Gu Xiu together with her, Yun Xiao was still very relieved, so she and Qiong Xiao transformed into streams of light and left.

Only Gu Xiu and Bi Xiao were left.

Seeing that only the two were left, Bi Xiao asked: "How do you think Ding Guang Xian died?"

Originally, he wanted to come back to file a complaint, who knew that Ding Guang Xian died inexplicably.

Gu Xiu shook his head.

"I don't know, but once the Six-Soul Banner is found, everything will come to light. I don't hope Ding Guang Xian died just like that; that would be too cheap for him."

Hearing Gu Xiu's words, if she hadn't been with Gu Xiu all the time, Bi Xiao would have thought that Ding Guang Xian's death was Gu Xiu's doing.

Mount Kunlun.

Jade Void Palace.

The golden bell struck on Golden Turtle Island spread throughout the Primordial.

Yuanshi Tianzun sat on the futon and opened his eyes slightly.

He did not understand why the Jie Sect struck the golden bell.

"Could it be that Tong Tian intends to preach at this time?"

When a Saint preaches, it takes thousands of years. If Tong Tian preaches at this time.

The plan to use the Investiture of the Gods to destroy the Jie Sect would fall through.

No one will fill the list, the calamity will not stop, and the killing calamity on the Twelve Golden Immortals will become heavier and heavier.

Thinking of this, Yuanshi Tianzun was a little anxious.

Originally, he could lure the Jie Sect disciples out one by one and send them to the list.

If Tong Tian preaches, the Investiture of the Gods can only continue after he finishes preaching, but the Twelve Golden Immortals cannot wait that long.

After deducing, his gaze turned to Golden Turtle Island, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Ding Guang Xian is dead?" After coming back to his senses, he snorted coldly.

"It's good that a person with fur and horns is dead, but I didn't expect Tong Tian to hand the Six-Soul Banner to Ding Guang Xian, otherwise his name would definitely be on the list."

"Now the Four Great Direct Disciples of the Jie Sect are all out looking for the Six-Soul Banner; this is the time for my Chan Sect to weaken the fortune of the Yin Shang."

He immediately drew a message talisman in the void with the Saint's means and flew toward the Jade Pillar Cave on Mount Zhongnan.

Yun Zhongzi was meditating in the cave when the message talisman containing the Saint's power flew in from outside, and Yuanshi Tianzun's words rang out.

"Yun Zhongzi, the Jie Sect's Ding Guang Xian has suddenly fallen, and the Four Great Direct Disciples are all looking for the Six-Soul Banner. You go to Chaoge to beat the thousand-year fox demon, let her not just enjoy herself, it's time to do something."

Yun Zhongzi got up and bowed toward the direction of Mount Kunlun.

"Teacher, rest assured, the disciple will definitely handle this matter and properly beat the thousand-year fox demon."

Mount Xumi.

Last time, Nuwa smashed the Western Sect once.

Jieyin and Zhunti looked at the rebuilt Western Sect and sighed.

"Our Western Sect is already barren, and Nuwa has caused such trouble, which means we have to spend more time to make the West rise."

"We will settle the account with Nuwa sooner or later."

At this moment, the two heard the sound of the Jie Sect's golden bell on the Primordial, and they were curious.

Jieyin frowned slightly: "Could it be that something happened to the Jie Sect? Or is Tong Tian going to preach, so he is announcing it to heaven and earth?"

The heavenly secrets of people and things involved in the Investiture of the Gods will be shielded, but the information of falling will not be shielded.

The two deduced, and immediately knew what had happened, and their faces changed drastically.

"Chang Er Ding Guang Xian is dead?"

"Senior Brother, what should we do? Ding Guang Xian has a connection with our West. We planted the Bodhi seed and taught him to cultivate the Joyous Method, making him yearn for our Western wonderful method. After the Investiture of the Gods, he would definitely come to our West, but he died. Could it be that our West really cannot rise?" Zhunti was full of pain.

Jieyin was also heartbroken, and suddenly thought of something.

Ding Guang Xian held the Six-Soul Banner; after his death, his soul must have been captured by the Six-Soul Banner.

Now the whereabouts of the Six-Soul Banner are unknown, and the Jie Sect is searching for it. Jieyin smiled.

"Junior Brother, I see that the Six-Soul Banner has a connection with our West. Why don't we go to the East to look for the Six-Soul Banner? If Ding Guang Xian's soul is still there, he still has the possibility of being reborn and joining our West."

This proposal made Zhunti's eyes light up: "Good!" ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
