Chapter 63: Seizing the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords

"The other item is the Gate of the Great Dao." Wu Feng looked toward another slightly more massive stone gate.

Compared to the stone gate mentioned by the Master of the Jie Sect, the one in Wu Feng's hand had various patterns carved upon it.

The power of the Great Dao laws contained within it permeated the very surface of the gate.

The depth of those Great Dao laws was far stronger than that of the Gate of Eternal Life.

This was the Gate of the Great Dao.

Within the Gate of the Great Dao were numerous Great Dao laws.

If the Gate of Eternal Life could be considered a fragmented version of the Jade of Creation, then the level of the Gate of the Great Dao was truly on par with the Jade of Creation.

"This Gate of the Great Dao is likely comparable even to a Chaos Supreme Treasure." Wu Feng said softly, a flash of helplessness appearing in his eyes.

As Wu Feng, whose current strength was only at the Golden Immortal realm, he could not yet utilize this Gate of the Great Dao to its fullest potential.

Only upon reaching the Quasi-Saint realm and beginning to comprehend the Great Dao laws would the true utility of the Gate of the Great Dao be revealed.

The role of the Hongmeng Sword Dao was similar.

With only the strength of a Golden Immortal now, using these supreme treasures allowed him to absorb only a little, not too much.

Absorbing too much might instead become a burden.

After all, Wu Feng's current cultivation realm was simply too low.

And the items he had obtained were of too high a level.

This made Wu Feng feel somewhat helpless.

"Let's put these two things aside for now; let's look at the upgrade functions of the grocery store this time." Some information surfaced in Wu Feng's mind.

After the grocery store upgrade, not only did the entire store become larger, but the variety and quantity of items also increased.

There were also other different functions.

For instance, even while staying inside the grocery store, Wu Feng could see the situation in the outside world.

It even added a kind of invincible domain.

Within a radius of one thousand meters, Wu Feng could release his invincible power.

However, what made Wu Feng feel helpless was:

Even with this added function, he still could not leave the grocery store.

"Forget it, with only the power of the Golden Immortal level, I wasn't planning on leaving the grocery store right now anyway." Wu Feng shook his head.

For now, Wu Feng still planned to lie low in the grocery store and focus on improving his strength first.

As long as customers kept coming,

breaking through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal and Da Luo Golden Immortal realms would be quite easy for Wu Feng.

Not to mention that this time, the Master of the Jie Sect spent 400,000 exchange points, which allowed Wu Feng to gain 200,000 exchange points himself.

This was an astonishing number, enough to provide Wu Feng with more resources.

One must know that even Quasi-Saint level figures like the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit and Ksitigarbha could only obtain tens of thousands of exchange points even after racking their brains.

It could only be said that when it came to treasures, the Saints still held the most.

"Then, let's improve my strength now." Wu Feng stopped overthinking and walked toward the backyard.

It must be said that the grocery store's upgrade had also brought earth-shaking changes to the backyard where Wu Feng lived.

The most direct point was that the space had become much larger.

………………………………

The Heavenly Court.

Ever since Haotian discovered that the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, Zhao Gongming, and others had broken free from the Investiture of the Gods, he had been waiting in the sky above the residence of the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit.

Haotian had a feeling that the truth of the matter might not be what he had previously thought.

Otherwise, it would be one thing for the Three Xiao sisters to have such an opportunity.

How could it be that the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit and the others were the same, and so quickly?

"They're here..."

Suddenly, Haotian felt a terrifying Quasi-Saint aura vibrating, and his expression turned solemn.

The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit had arrived.

As a personal disciple of the Jie Sect, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit was also a standout among the Quasi-Saints.

Moreover, the current Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit had undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the past.

A moment later.

Several rays of light appeared before Haotian.

Just as Haotian intended to speak, his footsteps stopped, and his expression stiffened.

Who did he see?

A Saint!

The Master of the Jie Sect!

At first, when Haotian sensed the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, he had not felt the aura of the Master of the Jie Sect.

This was also very natural.

If the Master of the Jie Sect did not want to be discovered, then it was impossible for a Quasi-Saint to detect him.

Even if Haotian was a truly top-tier Quasi-Saint powerhouse, it was still the same.

Below the Saints, all are ants.

The difference in realm between the two was the difference between heaven and earth.

This was why he hadn't discovered the Master of the Jie Sect just now.

But why would the Master of the Jie Sect appear here in the Heavenly Court, and be with his disciple, the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit?

More importantly,

when Haotian saw the Master of the Jie Sect, he felt a strong sense of sharpness and fighting spirit.

Legend had it that after the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, the Jie Sect was destroyed, dealing a massive blow to the Master of the Jie Sect, from which he had not yet recovered.

But now, just by seeing him, Haotian did not believe such legends.

What blow?

The fighting spirit of the Master of the Jie Sect made Haotian feel as if he were seeing the Master of the Jie Sect he had heard in the Zixiao Palace back then.

That Master of the Jie Sect who feared neither heaven nor earth, who dared to face enemies with a single sword.

In reality, this vague feeling of Haotian's was actually correct.

After being enlightened by Wu Feng, the Master of the Jie Sect had not only regained his youthful appearance, but his fighting spirit was also the same as in the past.

Reorganizing the Jie Sect and confronting Saints like Yuanshi and Jieyin was the next goal of the Master of the Jie Sect.

Moreover, the Master of the Jie Sect understood some of the shortcomings of his past Jie Sect—the karma was too great—so he had his own thoughts regarding the disciples of the Jie Sect.

For those disciples with too much past karma, let them continue to be members of the Investiture of the Gods.

After all, a divine pardon token for the Investiture of the Gods was also a significant number.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Tongtian."

Various thoughts flashed through Haotian's mind, but he still stepped forward and said respectfully to the front.

As a page to Hongjun, Haotian calling Tongtian "Senior Brother" was, in some circumstances, acceptable.

"So it is Haotian. Why, did you know I would come here, so you wanted to welcome me in person?" The Master of the Jie Sect looked at Haotian with interest.

"No, Haotian is here waiting for the Holy Mother because Haotian discovered that more immortals and gods have broken free from the Investiture of the Gods," Haotian said hurriedly.

"Haotian, I know about this matter as well," the Master of the Jie Sect chuckled. "If the opportunity arrives, you will also meet that senior."

The Master of the Jie Sect had no intention of telling Haotian directly about Wu Feng's existence.

So this would depend on whether Haotian had that opportunity.

"Yes, Senior Brother, Haotian understands," Haotian replied, cupping his hands. "Senior Brother, Haotian will take his leave."

"Hmm..."

As the Master of the Jie Sect nodded, Haotian turned into a ray of light and left.

Haotian understood that it was impossible to learn anything from the mouth of a Saint.

Therefore, he might as well leave.

"Golden Spirit, I believe Haotian will not come looking for you again," the Master of the Jie Sect said, watching Haotian leave.

"Thank you, Teacher," the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit said hurriedly.

Although the Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit had broken free from the Investiture of the Gods, Haotian's strength was still stronger than hers.

In the past, Haotian did not target the people of the Jie Sect because they had a Saint behind them.

Even the Master of the Jie Sect, whose spirit had been crushed, was still a Saint.

"Haotian." The Master of the Jie Sect revealed a faint smile.

As the Lord of the Heavenly Court, one really had to say that Haotian was still somewhat miserable.

The disciples of the Chan Sect occupied most of the high positions in the Heavenly Court, and the Fomen also wanted Haotian's Heavenly Court to cooperate with them.

It was no wonder Haotian would split off an avatar instead of managing the Heavenly Court himself.

When the War of the Wu and Demon Clans ended, as the page of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Haotian had been full of ambition.

He wanted to restore the past glory of the Demon Race.

At that time, the Saints did not dare to easily offend Di Jun and the others.

On one hand, it was due to the relationship of cause and effect in heaven and earth; on the other hand, if the Demon Race truly went all out, they could also unleash the power of a Saint.

It was precisely because of this.

That the War of the Wu and Demon Clans caused the heavens to collapse and the earth to crack, leaving the Primordial World in ruins.

Later, it was only by relying on Nüwa patching the sky that this world was stabilized.

If one were to say, there was actually no conflict between the Master of the Jie Sect and Haotian.

"Let's go. Regarding the matters of the Jie Sect, we still need to make arrangements," the Master of the Jie Sect said in a deep voice. "Wudang should return, and there are also the Jie Sect disciples suppressed by the Fomen, and even the disciples of Yuanshi Tianzun of the Chan Sect; these will all depend on you."

"Yes, Teacher..." The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit, Zhao Gongming, the Three Xiao sisters, and others nodded in unison.

They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

The stifling frustration of the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods—they would now repay it properly.

However, reorganizing the Jie Sect was the primary goal.

The Jie Sect disciples suppressed by the Fomen, and the Master of the Jie Sect's Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, all required the disciples to seize them back.

If he, the Master of the Jie Sect, were to take action, Yuanshi Tianzun and the others would likely not stand by and watch, and if the Dao Ancestor Hongjun were to appear, he, Tongtian, would be helpless.

Therefore, regarding the rebuilding of the Jie Sect, there had to be a plan.
