Chapter 814: Tongtian's Fury
Golden Turtle Island.
Biyou Palace.
"Hmph..."
Following a cold snort, the aura within Biyou Palace began to vibrate violently, as if countless stars were exploding simultaneously.
Fortunately, apart from Tongtian Jiaozhu, there was no one else in the palace.
Otherwise, this single cold snort would have been enough to obliterate all cultivators below the Quasi-Saint realm.
Tongtian Jiaozhu's expression was cold and stern, his gaze fixed coldly on the live broadcast.
He saw that after Chijingzi beheaded Lv Yue, he not only skillfully looted the Spirit Treasures on Lv Yue's body but also held Lv Yue's corpse, looking down at Sishui Pass in a show of force.
Whoosh!
Chijingzi tossed Lv Yue's corpse toward Sishui Pass and said loudly, "Lv Yue is dead. Zhao Gongming, why don't you come up here and accept your death immediately?"
Arrogant!
Very arrogant!
Cold light flickered in Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes.
Chijingzi's actions were so ruthless that he did not believe for a moment that it was not directed by Yuanshi Tianzun behind the scenes.
Primordial West.
Lingshan.
Zhunti Daoren clicked his tongue and said, "This Yuanshi Tianzun really intends to abandon all family ties. It seems he wants to use the Fengshen War to completely suppress the Jie Sect. Senior Brother, this might just be our opportunity."
Although Zhunti Daoren secretly hated Yuanshi Tianzun for the killing of the Yang Spirit, as long as the Western Sect could flourish, everything was negotiable.
Jieyin Daoren nodded slowly: "What do you intend to do?"
Zhunti Daoren smiled slightly: "Of course, to assist Yuanshi Tianzun. The Jie Sect is too strong; if it is not weakened, it will be the greatest obstacle to the flourishing of our Buddhism. Of course, we shall just wait quietly; Yuanshi Tianzun will come begging at our door."
Previously, he only wanted to accelerate the Fengshen War and let the Jie Sect and the Chan Sect destroy each other.
In reality, he had no intention of forming an alliance with the Chan Sect.
Because the Three Pure Ones were, after all, one entity; even if they stood on opposite sides due to the Fengshen War, they would likely just go through the motions, sending some Outer Disciples onto the Investiture of the Gods to deal with Haotian and the Dao Ancestor.
But who would have thought that Chijingzi would be so ruthless in his killing? It was clear he had received instructions from Yuanshi Tianzun.
From this, it could be seen that Yuanshi Tianzun had no intention of showing any mercy.
Yet, the overall strength of the Chan Sect was far weaker than that of the Jie Sect.
And in terms of personal strength, Yuanshi Tianzun was certainly no match for Tongtian Jiaozhu—after all, the Immortal Execution Sword formation could only be broken by a Saint—therefore, if Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to defeat Tongtian Jiaozhu, he would inevitably have to beg them for help.
When that time came, it would be the moment to set conditions.
To be able to weaken a stumbling block while taking the opportunity to profit—how wonderful that would be.
Jieyin Daoren's lips curled into a smile: "Excellent! Excellent."
Zhaoge.
"Good!"
Yin Qi clapped his hands in approval and instructed Immortal Tomb: "Immortal Tomb, promote this video of Chijingzi ambushing and killing Lv Yue across the entire network. At the same time, arrange for those virtual accounts of yours to push comments and videos to the Jie Sect disciples; make them as inflammatory as possible to incite their anger.
As for Tongtian Jiaozhu, push them on his end as well.
However, do not push videos from virtual accounts; push some short videos that sympathize with the Jie Sect or criticize the Chan Sect.
Remember, do not make the frequency too high."
"Yes, Master."
"Also, take out the video of me shooting Taiyi Zhenren and combine them for commentary, saying that on the battlefield, it is a matter of life and death, and one cannot show the slightest mercy; whoever strikes late is the one who dies."
Yin Qi continued to instruct.
He wanted to instill a philosophy into the disciples of both sects: strike first to gain the advantage.
Only then would the slaughter between the two sects become even more intense. Although many of the civil and military officials of the Yin-Shang were Jie Sect cultivators, Yin Qi had no affection for the Jie Sect itself, because most of the Jie Sect disciples were of the Demon Race and often slaughtered the Human Race to practice their arts.
Furthermore, if the Yin-Shang were to unify the Honghuang, the Jie Sect would also be the greatest obstacle.
He wished for nothing more than for the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect to perish together.
Sishui Pass.
Whoosh!
Lv Yue's corpse was thrown down, and Zhao Gongming hurriedly soared into the sky to catch it.
Chijingzi repeated his old trick; while Zhao Gongming was catching Lv Yue's corpse, he held the Yin-Yang Mirror and fired a beam of ghastly white mirror light, hoping to repeat his success, but Zhao Gongming had long been prepared.
His tiger eyes widened, and with a wave of his large hand, the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls appeared before him.
Boom—!
The ghastly white mirror light struck the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls, emitting a deafening boom that shook the firmament so violently that people on the ground worried whether the stars in the sky would be shaken down.
Zhao Gongming secured Lv Yue's corpse, soared into the high heavens, and roared: "Chijingzi, why did you kill Junior Brother Lv? Do you truly not care for the slightest bit of the Three Pure Ones' kinship?"
Please... do... bookmark 6... 9... book....!
The kinship of the Three Pure Ones was certainly not something he, Chijingzi, could deny.
He merely smiled coldly, filled with mockery: "Zhao Gongming, this is a battlefield, not a ring for our two sects. You haven't forgotten how the Yang Spirit shot and killed my Junior Brother Taiyi, have you?"
The implication in Chijingzi's words was that the Yang Spirit was a disciple of the Jie Sect.
Since you were unrighteous first, do not blame us for being heartless.
It was precisely because of this that, facing Zhao Gongming's questioning, he could not help but smile coldly, mocking the Jie Sect for deceiving themselves and others.
However, the honest Zhao Gongming did not understand the subtext of Chijingzi, simply assuming that Chijingzi was completely disregarding the friendship between the two sects, and that since they had reached the battlefield, they must decide who lives and who dies.
"Good, good."
Zhao Gongming laughed out of extreme anger, killing intent erupting from his eyes: "Since your Chan Sect does not care for the bond of the Three Pure Ones, then do not blame this poor Daoist for being heartless."
He frantically urged the Sea-Calming Pearls, each pearl blooming with brilliant azure divine radiance, then transforming into streaks of azure divine light shooting out, like high-energy rays from a supernova explosion.
Chijingzi's expression was grave; he likewise frantically urged the Yin-Yang Mirror, shooting out streaks of ghastly white mirror light, while simultaneously wearing the Superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Eight-Trigram Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe.
Boom—!
The ghastly white mirror light collided with the azure divine radiance; they annihilated each other, erupting into a terrifying explosion, just like suns bursting open in the firmament, blooming with endless light and destructive shockwaves.
People for hundreds of thousands of miles around looked up, as if they could see rounds of suns suddenly appearing and then annihilating.
The Yin-Yang Mirror was, after all, a Superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, and in terms of power, it was naturally inferior to the Sea-Calming Pearls.
The twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls fired in unison, finally shattering the defense of the Yin-Yang Mirror, striking Chijingzi's body, and then exploding against his Eight-Trigram Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe.
Chijingzi groaned, his face flushing red, and he flew backward for several thousand miles.
It was fortunate that he had the Eight-Trigram Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe, otherwise, being struck by the azure divine radiance, he would surely have been heavily injured.
"Senior Brother, this poor Daoist comes to assist you."
Juliusun let out a long whistle; he soared into the sky, simultaneously throwing the Immortal-Binding Rope toward Zhao Gongming.
The Immortal-Binding Rope was also a Superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, with the function of binding people.
"Clowns, what does this poor Daoist have to fear?"
Zhao Gongming shouted sharply.
He formed a seal with his right hand, and two Sea-Calming Pearls struck toward Juliusun.
One met the Immortal-Binding Rope, and one struck toward Juliusun.
The remaining twenty-two Sea-Calming Pearls continued to frantically attack Chijingzi, appearing determined to slay him.
Seeing that neither Juliusun nor Chijingzi could do anything to Zhao Gongming, Huanglong Zhenren, Lingbao Dafa Shi, Daoxing Tianzun, and Qingxu Daode Zhenjun all rushed into the high sky.
Daoxing Tianzun's Vajra Pestle and Qingxu Daode Zhenjun's Five-Fire Seven-Feather Fan were both Superior Innate Spiritual Treasures.
Although Huanglong Zhenren and Lingbao Dafa Shi did not have clearly defined magic treasures in the original work, as members of the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Sect and Direct Disciples among Direct Disciples, how could they not have Innate Spiritual Treasures?
Huanglong Zhenren used a Dragon God Spear, while Lingbao Dafa Shi used a Sun-Moon Cauldron, both of which were Superior Innate Spiritual Treasures. (End of chapter)
