Chapter 967: Pangu Banner Obtained

"Carry this Yuqing Talisman with you. Once a Quasi-Saint makes a move against you, this Yuqing Talisman will be activated instantly; it contains a full-strength strike from your master."

Yuanshi said, sending the Yuqing Talisman before Yunzhongzi.

To prevent history from repeating itself and Yunzhongzi being robbed, he had specially refined this jade talisman.

Below the Quasi-Saint level, Yunzhongzi could handle things himself.

If it were a Quasi-Saint, the jade talisman would activate instantly after sensing the corresponding aura.

Yunzhongzi accepted it with joy: "Many thanks, Master."

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded and said: "Hmm, there is no time to lose. After you obtain the origin of the Blood Moon Demon World, return to go into seclusion and break through. I will explain the details of Corpse Severing to you then."

"Yes, Master, this disciple takes his leave."

Yunzhongzi bowed again, then drifted away.

Watching Yunzhongzi's disappearing back, Yuanshi Tianzun's right eyelid suddenly twitched, and an inexplicable sense of foreboding arose in his heart.

Then, his eyes widened abruptly, and his hair stood on end with rage.

"Wicked beast!"

Yuanshi Tianzun roared, his voice shaking the Eight Desolations.

The sudden roar startled countless people, who began to discuss it in confusion:

"Is that Yuanshi Tianzun? What is going on? Listening to that roar, he seems to be angry to the extreme?"

"Tsk tsk, who has provoked Yuanshi Tianzun again?"

"Damn, that scared the hell out of me. Good thing I wasn't in the middle of dual cultivation, otherwise I would have been scared limp."

"Wuwu, my Immortal Pill. It was just one last step away, but my hand shook and it was ruined!"

Yuxu Palace.

Laozi walked out from the void and asked: "Second Brother, what is wrong?"

Yuanshi Tianzun's lingering anger had not yet dissipated; he gritted his teeth and said: "Eldest Brother, that wicked beast just now disguised himself as Yunzhongzi and swindled the Pangu Banner from my hands. I can no longer sense the Pangu Banner."

"What!"

Laozi was no longer calm either. He hurriedly asked: "How can this be? Was it not Yunzhongzi? Could you not tell?"

Yuanshi Tianzun gritted his teeth and said: "This person is extremely skilled in the Dao of Transformation and was completely indistinguishable from the real one. I did not notice a single thing the entire time. It was only after he left that I had a sudden premonition that something was wrong.

But before I could act, the connection to the Pangu Banner was completely lost.

However, although I did not see through his true form, I already know who it is."

"Who?"

"Di Qi!"

"Di Qi!"

A cold glint flashed in Laozi's eyes: "How are you certain?"

"I received a plea for help from Yunzhongzi yesterday; he sent me a message on WeChat..."

Yuanshi Tianzun briefly recounted the whole story and continued: "Now it seems certain that it was Di Qi who disguised himself as Yunzhongzi to send me that message. Only he, having mastered the Heavenly Dao Network, could achieve this."

Laozi nodded gravely and said in a deep voice: "It seems this matter was indeed the work of Di Qi. However, Nuwa has already colluded with him; even if you and I join forces, I fear we cannot do anything to him.

Let us go find Tongtian.

On such a matter of great right and wrong, he cannot remain indifferent.

With the three of us joining forces, plus the Immortal Execution Sword formation, we must kill Di Qi this time."

"Good!"

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded.

Although he had to bow his head to Tongtian Jiaozhu, he had no other choice at this moment.

Just then, a figure rushed out from the void.

It was none other than Yunzhongzi.

Yunzhongzi's Daoist robe was tattered, his face was pale, and blood was overflowing from the corners of his mouth; he was in a wretched state.

Looking at Yunzhongzi, a cold light flickered in Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes.

He reached out with his right hand; before Yunzhongzi could react to what was happening, he was pulled toward Yuanshi Tianzun and then lifted up by his throat.

"Mas... Mas... ter!"

Yunzhongzi's face flushed red, his eyes widened, and he called out with difficulty. He was completely bewildered.

He had finally managed to escape from the Blood Moon Demon World, so why did his master want to kill him the moment they met?

Even if he had failed his mission, his crime should not be punishable by death.

Yuanshi Tianzun woke up instantly, suppressed the killing intent in his heart, and then sent vast magic power into Yunzhongzi's body to check his physical form and Primordial Spirit thoroughly.

Only after confirming it was indeed Yunzhongzi did he let go.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Yunzhongzi coughed repeatedly. He was horrified and stammered: "Master, what is the reason for this?"

Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun release Yunzhongzi, Laozi knew that this Yunzhongzi was the genuine article.

In fact, it could not be an impostor.

Returning here would be walking right into a trap.

Yuanshi Tianzun felt he had lost face and did not answer, so Laozi said: "Just a moment ago, someone impersonated you and swindled the Pangu Banner from your master's hands."

Please... bookmark... 6... 9... book...!

Yunzhongzi was stunned again, his face full of disbelief: "How is that possible? Who is so bold as to dare swindle the Pangu Banner from Master? And Master is a Saint; what use would it be to swindle it?"

Master is a Saint.

With just a single thought, let alone recalling the Pangu Banner, manipulating the Pangu Banner to kill the opponent in return would be a matter of a single sentence.

Clearly, he did not know about Laozi losing the Taiji Diagram.

Yuanshi Tianzun's expression became even uglier.

Laozi said gloomily, "This person has special means that can isolate your master's senses."

"Ah!"

Yunzhongzi exclaimed.

He very much wanted to ask again how his master could fail to see through someone impersonating him.

But looking at Yuanshi Tianzun's livid expression, he swallowed the words that had reached his lips.

Wouldn't this be rubbing salt into his master's wounds?

Yuanshi Tianzun kept a cold face and said in a deep voice, "What is going on with you?"

Yunzhongzi hurriedly said, "Master, for some reason, two more Great Luo Golden Immortals suddenly appeared in the Blood Moon Demon World. Facing five enemies alone, this disciple was no match and could only fight to the death to escape back here.

Originally, this disciple was prepared to ask you for reinforcements, to send Junior Brother Yuding, Junior Brother Huanglong, and the others to assist me.

But I suddenly discovered that my Mobile Phone was missing.

In desperation, I could only return to Kunlun first."

"What, you lost your Mobile Phone!"

Both Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun were shocked.

If the Mobile Phone was truly lost, or stolen by someone, then they could not determine that the one who swindled the Pangu Banner was Di Qi.

In reality, Yin Qi would naturally never commit such a low-level flaw.

As long as there was not a shred of a clue, even if Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun were suspicious, they could not do anything to him.

Yuanshi Tianzun rebuked, "Your Mobile Phone is a Post-Heaven Spirit Treasure that I refined for you, and you had already refined it; how could it be stolen by someone, and without you discovering it in time?"

Yunzhongzi trembled all over and said with some grievance, "Master, this disciple does not know either. Yesterday, this disciple was careless and fell into the Demon race's trap, being surrounded and attacked by five Great Luo Golden Immortals.

This disciple exhausted all means before finally breaking through their encirclement and escaping.

That Blood Moon Demon World originally only had three Great Luo, but suddenly two more appeared; this disciple suspects someone is supporting them from behind."

Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun exchanged a glance.

Laozi could not help but sigh.

After what Yunzhongzi said, the situation was basically already clear.

The opponent secretly supported the Blood Moon Demon World, used Yunzhongzi as bait to quietly steal Yunzhongzi's Mobile Phone, and then used the Mobile Phone to deceive Yuanshi Tianzun, thereby swindling away the Pangu Banner.

This plan was linked ring by ring and had been prepared for at least several hundred years.

"What deep scheming!"

Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was ugly.

The opponent not only had deep schemes and had prepared for several hundred years, but also spared no expense to quietly cultivate two Great Luo Golden Immortals for the Blood Moon Demon World; this is not something an ordinary person could achieve. (End of chapter)
