Chapter 98: A powerhouse comparable to the Dao Ancestor?

"Come in..."

A faint voice sounded from within.

"Many thanks, Holy Mother." Zhao Gongming waved at the three sisters. "Let us go together."

The three of them, led by Zhao Gongming, walked into the palace.

As for whether someone could sneak in without being led,

that was overthinking it.

It was impossible for such a person to exist in the Heavenly Court.

Even if Marshal Tianpeng encountered this situation, it would be the same.

Generally, Grand Master Xuandu would not be at his residence.

But Jin Ling Shengmu was at her residence most of the time.

The two were completely opposite.

Walking out of this building, Zhao Gongming kept walking in a certain direction; he could still sense where Jin Ling Shengmu was.

Soon, Zhao Gongming and the others stopped in a courtyard filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.

A woman wearing gorgeous clothes was bent over, holding a spiritual tool in her hand, pruning the flowers and plants in the courtyard.

"Greetings, Holy Mother." Zhao Gongming looked at the woman and had the three sisters join him in paying respects.

"Hmm..." Jin Ling Shengmu straightened her body and looked up; her autumn-water eyes turned toward Zhao Gongming and the others. "It has been a long time since I heard the name of the Jie Sect. Zhao Gongming, long time no see."

"For the Holy Mother to still remember Gongming, Gongming is extremely moved," Zhao Gongming said repeatedly.

After all, the first disciple of the Jie Sect's outer sect and a personal disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu were different.

Even if Jin Ling Shengmu, like him, had been killed and become a member of the Investiture of the Gods list, that remained true.

"Zhao Gongming, you must have an important matter to seek me out this time," Jin Ling Shengmu said slowly.

"The Holy Mother is correct," Zhao Gongming nodded. "This matter concerns the Jie Sect, and it also concerns the Holy Mother."

"Concerns the Jie Sect, and concerns me too?" Jin Ling Shengmu was slightly stunned. "Gongming, you must know that after the Investiture, the Jie Sect existed in name only. Even my teacher, Tongtian Jiaozhu, had to admit this."

The Investiture of the Gods Kalpa had failed, and no matter how angry Tongtian Jiaozhu was at the time, he could not change the result.

It was Yuanshi Tianzun and the others who had won.

Afterward, Tongtian Jiaozhu was taken away by the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and as time passed, Tongtian Jiaozhu understood this as well.

Although he was very unhappy with the Western Fomen and the Chan Sect, what could he do? Personally intervening was impossible.

This was the warning from Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Naturally, there was another point: as a Saint, Tongtian Jiaozhu could not go and bully the younger generation himself.

"Holy Mother, these are my sisters, please take a look." Zhao Gongming said nothing more, his body slightly to the side, allowing the three sisters to appear before Jin Ling Shengmu.

Because the three sisters were of the younger generation and only Daluo Jinxian beings,

Jin Ling Shengmu did not focus her gaze on them, but rather on Zhao Gongming.

Only Zhao Gongming could be considered someone who could stand on equal footing with her.

"Your sisters, the three sisters of Sanxiao, right?" Jin Ling Shengmu revealed a smile and looked at the three.

Jin Ling Shengmu also knew of the three sisters.

After all, in the Battle of the Investiture, the three sisters had shone brightly.

Relying on the Golden Dragon Scissors, they had shaved away the top three flowers of the Twelve Golden Immortals; that had been a major achievement back then.

Seeing Yunxiao, Jin Ling Shengmu's expression did not change, but when she looked at Qiongxiao and Bixiao, her expression finally changed.

Because she saw it.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao no longer had the aura of the Investiture of the Gods list on them; their physical bodies were real and visible, not the bodies formed by the Investiture of the Gods list.

"Could it be..." Jin Ling Shengmu's eyes widened. "Qiongxiao and Bixiao have broken free from the Investiture of the Gods list."

Jin Ling Shengmu reached this conclusion.

Back then, deep within the Heavenly Court, Jin Ling Shengmu had also sensed the unusual movement of the Investiture of the Gods list, as well as the reaction of the world's tribulation.

At that time, Jin Ling Shengmu thought the world's tribulation was due to other reasons; it couldn't possibly be because of the Investiture of the Gods list.

But looking at it now, the matter exceeded ordinary imagination; that world's tribulation might truly have been because of the Investiture of the Gods list.

As for why it was like this,

now seeing Bixiao and the others, Jin Ling Shengmu reached a conclusion.

Breaking free from the Investiture of the Gods list had enraged the heavens and earth.

"Yes, Holy Mother, Bixiao and Qiongxiao have already broken free from the Investiture of the Gods list and restored their original freedom," Zhao Gongming said. "This time, I came to speak of this matter."

"This..." Jin Ling Shengmu opened her mouth wide. "This is truly a massive event. How did Bixiao and the others break free?"

"Because we met a senior, an existence whose strength might surpass that of a Saint," Zhao Gongming said.

Zhao Gongming did not know exactly what Wu Feng's strength was.

But it should be stronger than a Saint.

One must know, even a Saint could not let them break free from the Investiture of the Gods list so casually.

"Surpass a Saint?" Jin Ling Shengmu's eyes flickered. "In the Primordial World, has a powerhouse appeared who can compare to the Dao Ancestor?"

"I do not know." Zhao Gongming shook his head.

"Gongming, tell me about it properly," Jin Ling Shengmu asked hurriedly.

"Very well, Holy Mother, I intended to tell you about this originally," Zhao Gongming smiled.

Subsequently, Zhao Gongming told her about the grocery store one by one, mentioning the senior he met inside, the Investiture Amnesty Tokens, and even the Innate Supreme Treasure Chaos Bell, and even the Chaos Supreme Treasure Pangu Axe.

A moment later, after listening to Zhao Gongming's account, Jin Ling Shengmu was unable to recover for a long time.

"Let's put the Chaos Bell aside for now; the Pangu Axe is truly too incredible," Jin Ling Shengmu said softly. "However, Gongming, you came here to tell me this; there is probably another reason, right?"

"The Holy Mother guessed correctly," Zhao Gongming laughed foolishly. "My sisters and I no longer have any spiritual treasures, so we have no exchange points to purchase the Investiture Amnesty Tokens, which is why I came to find the Holy Mother."

"Rest assured, I will exchange for the Investiture Amnesty Tokens and give them to you, provided that the grocery store you speak of truly exists," Jin Ling Shengmu said in a deep voice.

"Holy Mother, rest assured, Qiongxiao and Bixiao are also here; this cannot be faked," Zhao Gongming laughed.

"That is true." Jin Ling Shengmu smiled.

This point could not be faked.

"Gongming, if that is the case, I will need at least thirty thousand exchange points here," Jin Ling Shengmu hesitated. "I do not have that many treasures in my hands." ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
