Chapter 241: Going Further and Further, Realizing the Dao
Yuanshi Tianzun did not expect Jiang Ziya to refuse.
Staring at Jiang Ziya, his gaze was deep and complex, and he did not speak for a long time.
Jiang Ziya maintained a bowing posture, not daring to breathe, his heart restless.
Finally, Yuanshi Tianzun sighed lightly.
"Ziya, this is the number of days, and it is also your destiny. You cannot shirk it. Don't be greedy for the quiet cultivation on the mountain. Going down the mountain to host the Investiture of the Gods is your opportunity to accumulate merit and prove the immortal Dao."
Jiang Ziya remembered the content on the bamboo slips.
After the Investiture of the Gods is completed, the God-Whipping Whip and the Investiture of the Gods list will be handed over to the Heavenly Court and managed by Haotian God.
And he lost the Investiture of the Gods list and the God-Whipping Whip, and with karma added to his body, he could only suffer in endless reincarnation, without getting any benefits. He didn't want to do it.
"Disciple is dull and afraid that I cannot shoulder this heavy responsibility. If there is any mistake, wouldn't I be letting down Teacher's high hopes? Please choose someone else, Teacher."
Seeing Jiang Ziya so stubborn, Yuanshi Tianzun shouted sharply: "I believe you have this ability, don't say any more."
Jiang Ziya had a face full of sorrow, his eyes full of unwillingness, and he wanted to struggle again.
"Teacher, is there really no room for maneuver?" His words were sincere.
"Go down the mountain quickly." Yuanshi Tianzun's gaze was flat, his tone unquestionable.
Antarctic Immortal Weng on the side stepped forward to comfort him, acting as a peacemaker.
"Ziya, I know your concerns, but this is the tribulation you must go through. The matter of the Investiture of the Gods concerns all living beings in the world. You should prioritize the great righteousness. When this matter is successful, you will have a day to return to the mountain."
Jiang Ziya was stunned again. Gu Xiu wrote this sentence in the bamboo slips.
"Can I really not go?"
Jiang Ziya kept shirking, which made Yuanshi Tianzun a little angry.
"Go, don't let down my expectations."
His tone revealed a majesty that could not be refused.
He raised his hand lightly, and a soft light enveloped Jiang Ziya.
The surrounding scene changed rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, Jiang Ziya was sent to the foot of the mountain.
Jiang Ziya stayed in place for a long time.
This was not even giving him a chance to pack his things, and he was driven down the mountain.
But he was just a disciple and could do nothing.
The stubborn temper in his heart suddenly surged up.
"Since you won't let me stay on Mount Kunlun, I can cultivate at the foot of the mountain myself."
After seeing the bamboo slips, it was impossible to go to the Investiture of the Gods.
He didn't dare to ask many things.
But Jiang Ziya always felt that what was described in the book might be some inside information about the Investiture of the Gods.
"Could this person have the ability to predict the future, specifically letting me see these?"
Pondering, he really wanted to know who this person was.
"Senior Brother Jiang."
While thinking, a voice came from behind.
Jiang Ziya turned around and saw it was Shen Gongbao, a little surprised.
"Junior Brother Shen, why are you here?"
Shen Gongbao looked mysterious, a hard-to-fathom smile hooked at the corner of his mouth.
"Senior Brother Jiang, I believe you already know that I was driven down the mountain, right?"
Jiang Ziya sighed, his expression disappointed: "Junior Brother, I was also driven down the mountain."
Shen Gongbao's eyes revealed a hint of cunning: "I was driven down the mountain because of the Investiture of the Gods; could it be that you were too?"
Jiang Ziya trusted Shen Gongbao very much at first. If it weren't for Yuanshi Tianzun's prior warning, he would have fallen for Shen Gongbao's trick.
But the Investiture of the Gods had many anomalies, and many of the Chan Sect's plans could not be implemented.
Jiang Ziya had been refusing the Investiture of the Gods, and was sent down the mountain by Yuanshi Tianzun in a fit of anger.
Without prior warning, Jiang Ziya had no defense against Shen Gongbao who came up.
He shook his head and sighed.
"Last time you told me about the Investiture of the Gods, I didn't pay much attention to it, but today Teacher suddenly summoned me and asked me to go down the mountain to host the Investiture of the Gods."
"I didn't want to, and I specifically recommended you to host the Investiture of the Gods, but Teacher didn't agree and sent me down the mountain."
Since seeing Gu Xiu, Shen Gongbao had been thinking about attacking the heart first.
He smiled slightly.
"Senior Brother Ziya, when I was driven down the mountain, I learned a secret."
"What secret?" Jiang Ziya asked with confusion in his eyes.
"It is that the Investiture of the Gods was caused by the Twelve Immortals of Jade Void committing too many killings. The Investiture of the Gods is being held to wipe their butts."
"All the third-generation disciples are there to respond to the calamity for the Twelve Golden Immortals and replace them on the list. Such a vicious act is truly intolerable to heaven!"
Shen Gongbao spoke with reason and passion, from the bottom of his heart, which stunned Jiang Ziya.
"Junior Brother Shen, I won't hide it from you, I picked up a bundle of bamboo slips the day before yesterday, which seemed to record some secrets of heaven."
Jiang Ziya told the story of the bamboo slips.
Shen Gongbao was thoughtful after listening.
"Senior Brother Jiang, it seems that there is an expert who can't bear to see us being used as tools, so he leaked the secrets of heaven to remind us."
After listening to the statement, Jiang Ziya nodded repeatedly.
"It seems so, but Junior Brother Shen, we can't go back to Mount Kunlun. What should we do now?"
Shen Gongbao stepped forward and pondered for a moment.
"We are not valued in the Chan Sect. Although we are all second-generation disciples, they didn't even pass the Jade Pure Immortal Method to us. Maybe they took us as disciples just to send us down the mountain to host the Investiture of the Gods and be scapegoats for the Twelve Golden Immortals."
"Mount Kunlun is so big, there is a place for us to stay anywhere. Let's open a cave dwelling on Mount Kunlun and be a loose cultivator. Isn't it quite good to be happy and free? You don't have to water pines and plant peaches every day, so you have time to cultivate."
Jiang Ziya thought about it.
It seemed that what Shen Gongbao said was not bad. They were not valued in the Chan Sect.
Except for the Twelve Golden Immortals, Yuanshi Tianzun didn't care about the life or death of other disciples at all.
"Junior Brother Shen is right. Although it's a pity that I can't stay in the Chan Sect, Mount Kunlun is a sacred place of immortals. Cultivating on it is better than going to the mortal world."
The two hit it off and left the foot of the Chan Sect mountain gate, heading elsewhere.
Not long after they left, Antarctic Immortal Weng came down from the mountain, looked around, and saw no one.
"Could it be that Ziya was just angry for a moment and has already gone to the mortal world alone?"
He was originally worried that Jiang Ziya would not obediently go down the mountain to host the Investiture of the Gods, so he came to do some ideological work.
Antarctic Immortal Weng laughed: "It's good that he figured it out. If he makes a temper and doesn't complete the Investiture of the Gods well, I won't be able to explain it to Teacher."
On the other side.
Because he mastered two Laws of Space, Gu Xiu used space jumping and soon returned to Three Immortals Island.
He was in a pleasant mood.
If he fully mastered the Great Dao of Space, where couldn't he go?
Taiyi Golden Immortal needs to realize his own Dao. Although the time is very tight, he must cultivate this Great Dao of Space.
As for the others, he would think about them later.
After returning, he was bored.
Gu Xiu planned to walk by the sea.
The waves kept hitting the shore, making a low roar.
Gu Xiu stood quietly by the sea, staring at the boundless sea.
Just at this moment, a crisp shout rang out abruptly, breaking this tranquility.
Gu Xiu turned around subconsciously, only to see Yun Xiao walking over with lotus steps.
A white dress fluttered in the wind, and her hair danced with the wind, elegant and refined. ===== CHAPTER 242 =====
