Chapter 328

~10 min read 1,924 words

Outside Jinao Island.

Under the gaze of all living beings in the Primordial world.

In the sky.

Yuanshi Tianzun took out the Pangu Banner, and terrifying power instantly permeated, and the surrounding space was distorted by it.

"Tong Tian, you asked for this!" Yuanshi Tianzun shouted angrily.

Endless Dao rules instantly lingered around his body, and the vast Saint's might permeated out, sweeping the world.

The Pangu Banner in his hand fluttered in the wind, and the monstrous momentum carried an aura that destroyed the world.

Between the swings, waves of terrifying Heavenly power swept towards the Sect Leader Tong Tian.

Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun in a rage, the Sect Leader Tong Tian was energized.

Since becoming a Saint, no one had been worth taking action against, so he just took this opportunity to exercise his muscles and bones.

"Yuanshi, let me see what ability you have."

Tong Tian's expression was indifferent, and four divine swords emitting endless killing aura instantly appeared behind him.

They were the Immortal-Slaying Sword, the Immortal-Killing Sword, the Immortal-Trapping Sword, and the Immortal-Ending Sword. With the four swords coming out together, the sharp sword aura rushed straight to the nine heavens, stirring the wind and clouds to change color.

The moment the four swords unfolded, the entire world was filled with terrifying sword intent, and countless sword auras crisscrossed, tearing the void.

Boom!

The boundless terrifying sword intent met the attack from the Pangu Banner.

The two collided, and the monstrous terrifying power was detonated.

Countless mountains and rivers were shattered, and the four seas were churning constantly.

All spirits in the Primordial world trembled under this terrifying power, not daring to resist in the slightest.

Some weak living beings were even directly turned into ashes, leaving not even a trace.

"Tong Tian, today I will let you know that I, Yuanshi, am not to be trifled with!"

Yuanshi Tianzun shouted, the terrifying Saint's might permeated out, and he swung the Pangu Banner again. Wherever it went, the space collapsed, and all things were destroyed.

Tong Tian was also carried away, having not fought such a refreshing battle for a long time.

The Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation unfolded, and endless terrifying sword intent erupted.

"Yuanshi, if you have any skills, just use them!"

Sword intent crisscrossed between heaven and earth, and countless terrifying sword intents poured down like a rainstorm, each containing endless killing power, bombarding towards Yuanshi Tianzun.

The entire world was restless under this terrifying sword intent.

Yuanshi Tianzun's face was solemn, knowing the power of the four Immortal-Slaying Swords, and he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

He hurriedly sacrificed the Heavens-Celebrating Cloud, and instantly five-colored light rendered the heavens, and the eight-tone immortal music resounded through the universe.

But even with the Heavens-Celebrating Cloud, Yuanshi Tianzun used all his strength to defend and only barely blocked the attack of the four Immortal-Slaying Swords, and was repelled quite a distance, his face becoming a bit pale.

Yuanshi Tianzun gradually calmed down. He shouldn't have taken action against Tong Tian alone; it was still too difficult for him to resist the four Immortal-Slaying Swords by himself.

"Tong Tian, do you have to fall out with me for the sake of a disciple?" Yuanshi Tianzun glared, his voice cold.

Tong Tian said: "Yuanshi, what do you mean by 'have to'? As the Sect Leader of the Jie Sect, isn't it right for me to protect my disciples? You are allowed to run to my Jinao Island to make trouble for the sake of your disciples, but I am not allowed to protect my Jie Sect disciples?"

"If you still want to take action against my disciples, today I will definitely distinguish between high and low with you."

Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was gloomy. He really wanted to distinguish between high and low with Tong Tian, but in the end, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said slowly: "The actions of my Chan Sect's Twelve Golden Immortals are determined by the Heavenly Number. Your disciple went against the sky and killed my Twelve Golden Immortals, which is against the Heavenly Principles. Why do you have to be so stubborn and protect him to the death?"

"Heavenly Number?" Tong Tian snorted coldly: "Yuanshi, your Chan Sect's set of theories is useless here."

"Your disciples only became like you, smelly and hard, after listening to your bullshit theories. They have always used expounding the Heavenly Dao as an excuse to commit crimes and do evil with peace of mind. Now that they are burdened with the killing calamity, it is entirely their own fault."

The doctrines and concepts of the Chan and Jie Sects conflicted, so conflicts were constant.

Yuanshi Tianzun originally wanted to use the Investiture of the Gods to eliminate the Jie Sect, but he did not expect that variables would arise.

"Tong Tian, it is not your turn to teach me how to do things in my Chan Sect. You should teach your disciples well. They are all fur-clad and horn-wearing beings who cannot be on the stage."

Being insulted by Yuanshi to his face again about the Jie Sect disciples, Tong Tian frowned: "Yuanshi, it seems you still want to practice with me."

"Practice then practice, who is afraid of whom!"

Just as the two were about to take action again, a long sigh sounded between heaven and earth.

"Sigh......"

Hearing this sigh, Yuanshi and Tong Tian both stopped.

Subsequently, Taishang Laozi appeared: "Stop it all."

Seeing Taishang Laozi appear, Yuanshi Tianzun said: "Big Brother."

Although Tong Tian was unhappy in his heart, he stopped and said: "Big Brother."

Taishang Laozi glanced at Tong Tian, his eyes showing some regret.

"Third Brother, I already know about the matter. The Investiture of the Gods follows the Heavenly Dao. Your disciple killed Huang Long, which is against the Heavenly Number, and should be handed over to Second Brother for disposal."

Tong Tian's brows furrowed slightly, very dissatisfied.

"Big Brother, what do you mean by this? You come and take sides without distinguishing right from wrong. Is this your attitude? Then I will have to disappoint you. My disciple has no fault. Even if he is to be disposed of, it is not your turn to point fingers here!"

With Taishang Laozi arriving, Yuanshi Tianzun had confidence and shouted angrily: "Tong Tian, Big Brother is here, how can you be so presumptuous! So disrespectful to your elder brother? Do you still have Big Brother in your eyes?"

Facing the accusation, Tong Tian snorted coldly: "You keep talking about respect and size, can your actions really be worthy of the responsibility of an elder brother?"

As soon as this was said, Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes widened, and the blue veins on his forehead burst out.

He was thinking about what Tong Tian was referring to.

Taishang Laozi looked at Tong Tian, a trace of complex emotion in his calm gaze.

Tong Tian had really changed.

In the past, regardless of right or wrong, as long as he spoke, Yuanshi Tianzun would echo from the side, and even if he was reasonable, Tong Tian would have to swallow this breath silently. Now he spoke to them like this.

He sighed.

"Third Brother, the Twelve Golden Immortals are the key people of the Investiture of the Gods and cannot have any mistakes, otherwise the calamity cannot subside, which may trigger an immeasurable calamity. At that time, even if we are Saints, it will be difficult to retreat safely."

Not expecting Taishang Laozi to pull it so far, Tong Tian smiled.

"Big Brother, there is a simpler way to eliminate the calamity: directly suppress and kill the Chan Sect's Twelve Golden Immortals. This calamity will not expand. At that time, my Jie Sect's ten thousand immortals will voluntarily ask to eliminate the karma residue brought by the calamity in various places."

Taishang Laozi was silent and did not answer immediately.

Yuanshi Tianzun was furious and angry: "Bastard! Tong Tian, you actually have such an idea, could it be that you want to break the foundation of my Chan Sect?"

Tong Tian said indifferently: "Second Brother, this is wrong. After the Twelve Golden Immortals are on the list and the Investiture of the Gods is completed, they will still be your disciples, just trapped by the Investiture of the Gods. What's more, Second Brother, you can completely cultivate another batch of disciples as successors, why do you have to hold on to the Twelve Golden Immortals?"

"If Second Brother has no disciples to choose from, my Jie Sect's ten thousand immortals come to court, and I can let some disciples join the Chan Sect and accept Second Brother's teaching."

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly, his voice filled with disdain: "My Chan Sect pays attention to roots, aptitude, origin, and background. How can it be like you, who pays attention to teaching without discrimination and accepts everything? Don't you know that if the roots are not correct, the mind must not be correct?"

"Yuanshi, I think you still want to practice with me." Tong Tian said.

"Tong Tian, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Seeing that the two were about to fight again, Taishang Laozi spoke.

"Alright, Second Brother, Third Brother, how about taking a step back in this matter?"

"Third Brother, the Chan Sect's Twelve Golden Immortals are burdened with the killing calamity and need to use the Investiture of the Gods to eliminate the calamity. Your Jie Sect disciples have no calamity and should not interfere with the Chan Sect's Investiture of the Gods. Your disciple killing Perfected Lord Huang Long is indeed biased."

"But I can discuss this matter with Second Brother and not mention it for now. You should restrain your disciples in the future and don't interfere with the Chan Sect's Investiture of the Gods again. What do you think?"

Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to say something, but Taishang Laozi glanced at him, so he had to give up.

With Taishang appearing, Tong Tian did not dare to continue fighting. If the Western two Saints joined, one against four Saints, even with the four Immortal-Slaying Swords, he could not hold on, so he could only see good and stop.

He spoke slowly.

"Big Brother, Perfected Lord Huang Long's death was entirely because he took action against my Jie Sect disciple first, and he bullied the small with the big, but his skills were inferior, so he was killed in return. It is not that I don't restrain my disciples."

"But since Big Brother has spoken, I will naturally give this face. My Jie Sect will not take the initiative to provoke Chan Sect disciples, but if Chan Sect disciples take the initiative to provoke my Jie Sect disciples, then it will depend on their own ability. If they are killed in return, they cannot blame anyone."

Taishang Laozi was silent for a moment: "That is very good. Second Brother, you have no opinion, right?"

Although Yuanshi Tianzun was unwilling to let Tong Tian off like this, since Taishang Laozi had proposed it, he could not refuse, so he could only wait until he went back to ask what this meant and why he did not put pressure on Tong Tian.

"Since Big Brother has spoken, I naturally have no opinion."

Taishang Laozi nodded: "Then Third Brother, restrain your disciples and don't interfere with the Chan Sect's Investiture of the Gods."

After saying this, the Saint Taishang and Yuanshi Tianzun left, leaving only the Sect Leader Tong Tian standing in place.
