Chapter 318: Zhao Gongming's Bow, Chan Sect's Actions

Ever since the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls were bestowed by Tongtian, Zhao Gongming had treated them as his personal magic treasure and always carried them with him, never feeling any breakthrough opportunity on them.

He was very puzzled by Gu Xiu's words.

"Nephew-Disciple, I have always carried the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls with me and have never felt any breakthrough opportunity on them. Are you sure my breakthrough opportunity lies in them?"

Gu Xiu's expression was incomparably certain, and he said slowly: "Uncle-Master, although you have always carried the Sea-Calming Pearls with you, you have never understood the true usage of the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls, so naturally, you cannot feel it."

Hearing this, Zhao Gongming was even more puzzled. Every time he faced an enemy, he would directly smash them with the Sea-Calming Pearls, and the other party would be so scared that they would run away. No one understood the Sea-Calming Pearls better than him.

"Nephew-Disciple, do the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls have other uses?" Zhao Gongming stared at Gu Xiu with burning eyes, his tone carrying a trace of eagerness and doubt.

Gu Xiu laughed.

"The Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls each have a space inside. So, Uncle-Master, why don't you evolve the interior of the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls into Twenty-Four Heavens to form a small world? Not only is it high-end, but it can also raise your cognition to a new height."

Zhao Gongming was stunned when he heard this. He had only treated the Sea-Calming Pearls as a magic treasure in the past and directly smashed people with them. He didn't expect that the Sea-Calming Pearls could be played like this?

Evolving the Twenty-Four Heavens, that is, evolving twenty-four small worlds inside the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls.

Although he had never thought about it, this idea was indeed feasible.

Zhao Gongming's cognition was constantly sublimating. If he successfully evolved the Twenty-Four Heavens, he would definitely be able to gain new insights. Once this thought arose, he vaguely felt the opportunity for a breakthrough.

He was overjoyed and didn't care about his status as a senior, bowing slightly to Gu Xiu: "Thank you for your guidance, Nephew-Disciple. It seems my previous cognition was too shallow."

Gu Xiu stepped forward to support him: "Uncle-Master, you are a senior, how can I accept a bow from you?"

"Nephew-Disciple, the Dao has no precedence; the one who achieves it first is the master. The kindness of preaching is as heavy as a mountain. I should bow to you."

Zhao Gongming said solemnly, his tone sincere and determined.

Gu Xiu couldn't say anything more.

After bowing to Gu Xiu, Zhao Gongming stood up straight.

"Nephew-Disciple, then I will go into seclusion and try to evolve the Twenty-Four Heavens."

Finding his breakthrough opportunity, Zhao Gongming couldn't wait to go into seclusion.

Gu Xiu called him to stop again: "Uncle-Master, please wait."

Zhao Gongming stopped, his eyes puzzled: "Nephew-Disciple, is there anything else?"

Gu Xiu said: "Evolving the Twenty-Four Heavens requires a treasure that can stabilize the earth, fire, wind, and water. I don't know if you have such a treasure in your hand, Uncle-Master?"

Zhao Gongming pondered slightly: "Nephew-Disciple, I still have a few treasures in my hand. I will go back and try to see if I can use them to stabilize the earth, fire, water, and wind."

Hearing this, Gu Xiu didn't say anything more.

"Then I will wait for your good news outside, Uncle-Master. If you don't have a treasure in your hand, you can come to me. I know of an object that can definitely stabilize the earth, fire, water, and wind, but it is in someone else's hands. It will take some trouble to get it."

Daoist Randeng could evolve the Twenty-Four Heavens and achieve the status of the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp, but Zhao Gongming didn't have the Heaven and Earth Ruler in his hand, so Gu Xiu wasn't sure if he could succeed.

Hearing Gu Xiu's words, Zhao Gongming thought about it. Since it was someone else's thing.

It was better not to ask for it if it wasn't necessary, especially since it concerned his own Dao path. This karma was very large.

"Thank you for the reminder, Nephew-Disciple. I still want to try it myself first."

"Alright." Gu Xiu nodded, not forcing it.

Watching Zhao Gongming leave,

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit glanced at Gu Xiu. She didn't expect that Gu Xiu really knew Zhao Gongming's breakthrough opportunity.

You must know that Tongtian didn't know this at all, but Gu Xiu pointed it out directly.

"Junior Brother, how did you know Uncle-Master's breakthrough opportunity?"

Facing the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit's gaze full of doubt, Gu Xiu thought for a while and decided to tease this Senior Sister of his.

"Maybe it's because I know more about the Sea-Calming Pearls, Junior Brother."

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit frowned slightly, thoughtful: "The Sea-Calming Pearls were bestowed by the Grand Ancestor to Uncle-Master. You haven't come into contact with them, so how can you know more than Uncle-Master?"

Gu Xiu smiled slightly and said unhurriedly: "Senior Sister, things in the world don't all need to be personally contacted to know their mysteries."

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit nodded half-believingly.

Seeing that the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit began to believe the lies he made up, Gu Xiu couldn't help but want to laugh.

Senior Sister, she seems quite easy to deceive.

"Senior Sister, we have toured enough today, so I will go back first and come to find you to play next time."

Having obtained the Auspicious Beast Pet Pill, Gu Xiu still had to go back and feed it to the Water and Fire Qilin.

By the way, he wanted to think of a way to deal with the Twelve Golden Immortals and send them to the list as soon as possible to end the Investiture of the Gods.

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit said: "Junior Brother, then I won't keep you."

Gu Xiu nodded and bid farewell to the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, then left Jinao Island and returned to Three Immortals Island.

Returning to Three Immortals Island, Gu Xiu summoned the Water and Fire Qilin.

He fed them the Auspicious Beast Pet Pill.

The aura on the Water and Fire Qilin continued to climb, and the power of water and fire intertwined and entangled around them.

Subsequently, two rays of Taiyi Golden Immortal light shot up into the sky on Three Immortals Island, exceptionally dazzling.

Representing that the Water and Fire Qilin had broken through the shackles of the Golden Immortal and reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.

Seeing that after the Water and Fire Qilin broke through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, their bodies began to change, becoming more powerful and majestic, Gu Xiu nodded with satisfaction.

At this time,

East Kunlun.

Regarding Duobao's trip to the Jade Void Palace to deliver Shen Gongbao's head and return the relics, the Twelve Golden Immortals were all filled with resentment and were gathering to discuss countermeasures.

To please the rest of the Twelve Golden Immortals, Master Huanglong was so angry that his face turned red, and he said righteously: "Fellow disciples, the Jie Sect is too arrogant. Duobao sending Shen Gongbao's head and relics is a naked provocation. We must counterattack, otherwise, where will the face of our Chan Sect be!"

However, Huanglong's impassioned speech did not receive a response from the others.

Everyone ignored Huanglong, and Juliusun spoke up.

"Fellow senior and junior brothers, if we don't do anything about this, those fur-clad, horn-bearing creatures of the Jie Sect will definitely climb on our heads in the future."

Chijingzi nodded slightly: "We must let those fur-clad, horn-bearing creatures of the Jie Sect know that if they dare to provoke our Chan Sect, our Chan Sect will definitely repay them a hundredfold!"

Hearing the rest of the Twelve Golden Immortals say this, Guang Chengzi spoke: "Since fellow junior brothers have all unanimously decided to make the Jie Sect pay the price, I naturally won't object."

At this time, Master Yuding, who had been lowering his head on the side, suddenly spoke: "Can you fellow senior and junior brothers let me say a word?"

"Yuding, what do you want to say?" Guang Chengzi asked.

Master Yuding said: "The Jie Sect's provocation might be related to the fact that fellow senior and junior brothers killed Ma Yuan and attacked Yu Yuan, thereby angering the Jie Sect disciples. Currently, the Jie Sect must be prepared. We should not act rashly, so as not to fall into their schemes."

"Anyway, last time Junior Brother Daoxing and I were attacked by Jie Sect disciples in the East Sea, we had already lost all our face. Now losing a little more doesn't matter. We should wait and see the situation first."

It would have been better if Master Yuding hadn't spoken; as soon as he opened his mouth, everyone's eyes brushed toward him.

Juliusun's gaze was filled with annoyance, "Yuding, you have the nerve to bring this up. It's enough that you made our Chan Sect lose face; now you want to drag us down to lose face together?"

Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun snorted coldly: "Yuding, you are really living backward. When has our Chan Sect ever been afraid of the Jie Sect? Being so timid, isn't that just making the Jie Sect even more arrogant!"

Master Huanglong looked and immediately chose a side: "Junior Brother Yuding, what kind of discouraging words are you saying! Do you want us to swallow our anger and let the Jie Sect be arrogant?"

Master Taiyi also showed dissatisfaction: "Junior Brother Yuding, are you afraid of the Jie Sect? When has our Chan Sect ever been afraid of anyone."

Master Yuding shook his head with a bitter smile: "Fellow senior brothers, I am not afraid of the Jie Sect, I just don't want us to fall into an unrecoverable place because of a moment of impulse."

Among the Twelve Golden Immortals, if you want to talk about being particularly unlucky, Master Yuding counts as one.

His disciple was snatched away, he went to the East Sea to ask for him, and was beaten and fled in a sorry state.

Finally, he had no choice but to choose Yuan Hong as his person to face the calamity.

Master Yuding practiced the sword path.

Every sword cultivator has his own pride and thinks he is not inferior to others.

Master Yuding naturally thought so too, thinking he was the smartest person among the Twelve Golden Immortals.

He disdained to compete with the rest of the Twelve Golden Immortals.

But ever since the Chan Sect's layout for the Investiture of the Gods was broken again and again.

Master Yuding knew that the Jie Sect had already begun to prepare for the Investiture of the Gods.

They were no longer like before, shrinking on Jinao Island, waiting for the Great Calamity to pass, giving the Chan Sect a chance to defeat them one by one.

But the Twelve Golden Immortals had inherited Yuanshi Tianzun's legacy, and each of them was arrogant and had despised the Jie Sect disciples for so long that it was very difficult for them to change their views all of a sudden.

Seeing that no one listened to him, Master Yuding was already thinking about how to get out of the Investiture of the Gods if the situation was not right. ===== CHAPTER 319 =====

Seeing that no one was listening to him, Perfected Lord Yuding was already thinking about how to extricate himself from the Investiture of the Gods if the situation turned unfavorable.
