Chapter 115

………………………………

Mount Lishan.

It looked like a very ordinary mountain range, but few people knew that there was a big shot here, and a Quasi-Saint big shot at that.

That was Old Mother Lishan.

Speaking of this person, she also had a certain reputation in the Journey to the West.

Back then, as one of the tribulations for Tang Seng, she became the mother of the transformed women such as Guanyin and Manjushri.

Without a certain level of strength, Guanyin and the others would not have allowed this.

In this way, it also proved the strength of Old Mother Lishan from the side.

And why Old Mother Lishan was so powerful was because she was one of the disciples of the original Jie Sect, and also a direct disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu.

She was Wudang Shengmu, the only one who escaped during the Investiture of the Gods War.

Of Tongtian Jiaozhu's four great disciples, Duobao became Rulai, Jin Ling went onto the Investiture of the Gods list, Gui Ling Shengmu was accidentally killed, and only Wudang escaped.

This also proved the strength of Wudang from the side.

Not to mention that after the Investiture of the Gods, Wudang's strength had been steadily growing.

On this day, Jin Ling Shengmu descended here.

"Wudang, come out," Jin Ling Shengmu said, the power of a Quasi-Saint permeating this world.

"Boom..."

Brilliant light erupted from within, and a figure that looked aged appeared before Jin Ling Shengmu.

"Wudang, why are you like this?" Jin Ling looked at Wudang's appearance and frowned.

The Wudang Shengmu of the past also had a very youthful appearance; how had she now become an aged figure?

"Jin Ling, you are not in the Heaven Realm, why have you appeared here?" Wudang Shengmu did not mind Jin Ling's words and smiled, shaking her head.

"Wudang, I am acting under the Teacher's orders to have you join me in reorganizing the Jie Sect," Jin Ling Shengmu said.

"Reorganizing the Jie Sect?" Wudang was stunned for a moment.

She had never expected that Jin Ling coming here would be for this purpose.

It could be said that when Tongtian Jiaozhu lost his fighting spirit, Wudang was in a similar situation.

The hatred of the Investiture of the Gods could not be forgotten.

But even if it couldn't be forgotten, so what? They couldn't do anything at all.

Understanding this point was why Wudang had lived in seclusion here, becoming the current Old Mother Lishan.

"But Jin Ling, you are an immortal god of the Heaven Realm..." Wudang could not help but say.

"Wudang, take a good look again," Jin Ling Shengmu said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Wudang looked carefully, and then her expression changed. "Jin Ling, you have broken free from the Investiture of the Gods list and restored yourself."

"That's right, just like me, and some other Jie Sect disciples are the same," Jin Ling Shengmu said. "Wudang, then do you want to reorganize the Jie Sect and take revenge on the enemies of the past?"

While speaking, a long sword appeared in Jin Ling Shengmu's hand, a long sword radiating a terrifying aura.

The Qingping Sword.

No, this was an incarnation of the Qingping Sword's power.

This also proved from the side that Tongtian Jiaozhu had intervened.

The Qingping Sword was Tongtian Jiaozhu's Dao-proclaiming magic treasure; for him, a Sage, it was something even more precious than the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords.

He could lose the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, but the Qingping Sword could not be lost.

On this point, the other Sages were the same.

Dao-proclaiming magic treasures were magic treasures that could grow along with them.

The stronger they became, the stronger the Dao-proclaiming magic treasure became.

"I..."

Looking at the Qingping Sword in Jin Ling's hand, Wudang's eyes were filled with excitement.

"Jin Ling, how could I not want to? I want to so much! Do you know how long I have endured? Master, Master finally remembers me!" Wudang Shengmu said excitedly, a terrifying aura constantly raging and erupting.

This also secretly shocked Jin Ling Shengmu.

Compared to the past, Wudang was clearly even stronger.

She, Jin Ling, also needed to work hard.

At this moment, Jin Ling Shengmu thought of the grocery store.

Gradually, as the aura erupted, Wudang's appearance also returned to her youthful look of the past.

"Jin Ling, what should we do next?"

"First, we must go to the Nanhai Guanyin Daoist Temple; there are disciples of our Jie Sect there."

"The Seven Attendant Immortals."

Nanhai, Guanyin Daoist Temple.

Deep within the temple, there were patches of bamboo forests standing tall, and inside was a lotus platform, upon which sat a woman with a charitable face, holding a jade vase in her hand.

That was precisely Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Among the several Bodhisattvas of the Western Fomen, she could be considered the strongest one.

Several Bodhisattvas like Manjushri and Samantabhadra could not compare to Guanyin.

It was precisely because of this.

In the mortal world, apart from the Buddha Rulai, Guanyin Bodhisattva had the most faith.

Compared to other people of the Western Fomen, Guanyin Bodhisattva was still a bit better.

After obtaining so much merit and luck, Guanyin's strength naturally continued to improve.

From initially stepping into the Quasi-Saint powerhouse level in the past, she had now reached a certain level of the Quasi-Saint realm.

However, Guanyin also understood that compared to the Buddha Rulai, the gap between her and the other party was still quite large.

Back then, as a disciple of the Chan Sect, she had a gap with Duobao, the predecessor of the Jie Sect's Rulai, and now the gap between the two seemed even larger.

"I hope that in this Kalpa, I can have a breakthrough in my strength," Guanyin said.

Betraying the Chan Sect, joining the Western Fomen, and improving her strength—that was Guanyin's main purpose.

Similarly, regarding the matter of the Journey to the West Kalpa, Guanyin also had some understanding; the arrangement of Sun Wukong could be considered the beginning of the Kalpa.

"Daoist Cihang, come out," a cold voice suddenly sounded in the sky.

This made Guanyin freeze, and then her expression turned cold.

In her own Daoist Temple, someone was actually so arrogant to appear here, and the way they spoke was so impolite.

As a Quasi-Saint powerhouse.

There were not many powerhouses who could make Guanyin back down.

Likely, only a few ancient Quasi-Saint powerhouses could make Guanyin wary.

Therefore, the words of the person just now filled Guanyin with anger.

However, when Guanyin appeared here, her expression froze slightly.

Because she saw the two people who were least likely to appear here.

Jin Ling Shengmu, Wudang Shengmu.

During the Investiture of the Gods period, as direct disciples of the Jie Sect's Tongtian Jiaozhu, they were the objects that gave Daoist Cihang a headache.

Whether it was Jin Ling Shengmu or Wudang Shengmu, they could have easily beaten her up back then.

Just like Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, facing the attacks of Guanyin, Manjushri, and Samantabhadra, she had the upper hand; if it weren't for the sneak attack by Daoist Randeng, Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit might not necessarily have been killed and ended up on the Investiture of the Gods list.

Not to mention Wudang Shengmu.

In such a dangerous battle, she was the only one who retreated.

This was not because Wudang was afraid, but because Tongtian Jiaozhu understood that the Jie Sect had already failed, which was why he let Wudang Shengmu leave.

Back then, there were likely other Jie Sect disciples who also received Tongtian Jiaozhu's instructions, but only Wudang achieved this.

After all, the Chan Sect at that time wanted to destroy the Jie Sect.

The grievances between the two sects could no longer be resolved.

It was completely a matter of life and death. ===== CHAPTER 117 =====
