Chapter 554

"Teacher said that this Kalpa Tribulation is a crisis and an opportunity for us Sages."

"Then for Teacher, perhaps it is also his opportunity." Nuwa said faintly.

For Nuwa, she was a member of the grocery store, so she naturally knew very well why her teacher had such a shocking change now.

In a certain sense, this was a rare opportunity for Teacher.

It could even be said that for her, Nuwa, it was also an opportunity to change her destiny.

Of course, to a certain extent, this might also become a crisis if they provoked that Senior or made the Senior unhappy.

Then they would be killed, and you would never even know how you died.

The gap between the two was too great.

In Nuwa's view, that Senior could likely kill them just by blowing a breath.

This was the shocking gap in strength between the two sides.

Naturally, these things were known to Tongtian, Laozi, and the others, because they had also entered the grocery store and knew of the opportunities there.

Like Yuanshi Tianzun and the Western Sages, they were still full of confusion.

Regarding the existence of the grocery store, they knew nothing at all, which made them completely unable to hear the subtext of Nuwa's words.

But there was one point they understood.

Perhaps their teacher had obtained some opportunities, which was why he had his current performance.

Even after breaking away from the Heavenly Dao, he did not suffer a backlash sufficient to cause him to fall.

"An opportunity?" Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes were burning.

The opportunity mentioned by Dao Ancestor Hongjun had appeared before his eyes just like that.

In Yuanshi Tianzun's view, perhaps his Junior Brother Tongtian had also obtained some opportunities, which allowed his strength to grow to this point.

Otherwise, how could he have been so easily defeated by his Junior Brother?

Regarding his own strength, Yuanshi Tianzun indicated that he had full confidence.

How could Tongtian catch up to him and even surpass him in such a short time?

At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun found a reason for his past failure.

Perhaps such a reason would also make Yuanshi Tianzun feel better.

Of course, if one really discussed the facts, Yuanshi Tianzun's guess was also correct; if Tongtian had not encountered the grocery store, it would be impossible for him to have such a change now.

According to the original history of the Primordial World,

even after the Journey to the West ended, Tongtian's heart would likely still be sunk in the failure of the Investiture of the Gods.

How could there be such a change now?

"An opportunity." Zhunti and Jieyin also took a deep breath; their eyes held worry and expectation.

What they worried about was that this Kalpa Tribulation was originally the Journey to the West Kalpa Tribulation, which was also an opportunity for Fomen to flourish.

If there were no accidents, with Fomen rising and obtaining a large amount of merit and luck, they could fulfill the great vows they had made to heaven and earth and pay off the merit they owed.

But now, the appearance of this special Kalpa Tribulation made them worry in their hearts.

Currently, the heavenly secrets were chaotic; even as Sages, they could not see through how the future would change.

One had to know.

Originally, even within a Kalpa Tribulation, when heavenly secrets were chaotic, they, as Sages, could vaguely see a few changes in heavenly secrets.

But now, they could not see anything at all.

The power they possessed was of no use for this.

In this way, even Zhunti and Jieyin were slightly bewildered as to where the Journey to the West Kalpa Tribulation, for which they had long been prepared, could head.

In the past, whether it was Tongtian, Houtu, or even Nuwa, they had all caused them severe blows.

This also made the Western Sages slightly self-doubting.

As for expectation, that was also very simple.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun had said that if they obtained an opportunity, they would even have a chance to become Heavenly Dao-level powerhouses.

The Heavenly Dao level was something Zhunti and the others had not even dared to think about in the past.

One had to know that just to advance a little as Hunyuan Daluo was extremely difficult.

The opportunity to become a Heavenly Dao-level powerhouse was something so longed for.

One was something originally certain, and the other was something originally out of reach.

This also made the mood of the Western Sages appear very complex.

"Now that Teacher is facing the Heavenly Dao Lei Jie, I wonder if he can survive it." Yuanshi Tianzun said in a deep voice.

The power released by the Heavenly Dao Lei Jie before them was, in Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes, simply terrifying.

Not to mention the purple lightning bolts on the periphery, which were enough to destroy them, the Hunyuan Daluo.

Even more so for the seven-colored Lei Jie inside.

If it were just the Zixiao World-Extinguishing Divine Thunder, they might be able to barely resist it.

Then they had absolutely no power to resist the seven-colored Lei Jie gestating inside.

That was power that likely only Heavenly Dao powerhouses could resist.

Regarding this, Tongtian, as a top-tier Hunyuan Daluo, also expressed agreement.

His strength was indeed very strong, and now he had the Chaos Supreme Treasure in his hand, but facing those seven-colored Lei Jie, he was also unable to do anything.

That was completely like a mayfly shaking a tree, overestimating one's own strength.

This was simply a suicidal act.
