Chapter 477 - Primordial Beginning Laughs At Jie Yin, Li Changshou Defends Ksitigarbha

Chapter 477 Primordial Beginning Laughs At Jie Yin, Li Changshou Defends Ksitigarbha

On the top of the Reincarnation Pagoda, the benevolent old Daoist priest who appeared later was surrounded by rays of light. He was just sitting on the cloud, as if he had merged with the world and was not tainted by any dust. Below the pagoda, dozens of disciples from the Western Sect had collected more than ten corpses and placed them there. At that moment, all of them looked angry and glared at Li Changshou and the others.

Saint Jie Yin opened his left hand. Seven to eight weak rays of light flew into his palm and protected the essence souls of the disciples of the Western Sect. However, six disciples of the Western Sect had their essence souls shattered and their souls dispersed.

The Cosmic Array that temporarily trapped Kong Xuan was broken by the Five-colored Divine Light because there were no experts guarding it. Kong Xuan flew out from inside and looked at the Saint who was receiving him warily. He landed behind Li Changshou. After a while, the Saint did not speak.

His voice spread everywhere. “Why are you causing trouble here?” An old Daoist priest from the Western Sect shouted, “Teacher, please help us! These disciples of the Dao Sect are unreasonable. They killed all the junior brothers without asking for the reason!”

“Huh?”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit frowned and was about to reemerge in her Dharma body when Daoist Duobao raised his hand to stop her.

Li Changshou also turned his head slightly and signaled to the Goddess of Golden Spirit… Next, it was time for everyone to take their chips and talk about the matters.

As long as the six Saints did not really fight and did not fight to the death, the chess table would not be overturned.

The old Daoists of the Western Sect were aggrieved. They cried in front of the Saint’s carriage, but the Saint was expressionless. Fairy Yun Xiao asked via voice transmission, “If this Uncle-Master attacks later and Master is not here, should we do our best to resist?”

Li Changshou frowned and pondered. “Don’t worry. Second Aunt-Master should have already arrived. If she doesn’t appear now, it will depend on how far we can negotiate with the Western Sect.”

“Yes,” Yun Xiao reminded him. “This is a game between Saints. You have already been too deeply involved. You should be more vigilant. Don’t anger the Saint.”

To anger the Saint…

It was actually quite difficult for him.

Li Changshou sighed in his heart. He could not help but recall the warm, comfortable, and enlightened conversation he had with the Grand Pure One in the temple. “The Western Sect only needs to care about receiving them. There’s no need to worry about anything else.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“His Dao is different from ours.”

“Then, it will be a half a month of silent rest.”

The Grand Pure One meant that apart from receiving the Saint, he had to be responsible for everything else regarding the Western Sect…

After waiting for a while, the disciples of the Western Sect stopped crying. A stream of light flew over from the sky. It was the group of Western Sect disciples who had chased after Perfected Taiyi previously. At that moment, they had already calmed down. They rushed to the pagoda and bowed to the Saint who was receiving them. Then, they glared at the distance.

A Daoist dressed in a fiery-red robe slowly walked over. He had a handsome face and a long aura. He was stepping on two fire wheels, and there was nothing unusual about him. When he landed behind Li Changshou and the others, he was about to speak but his aura suddenly changed. He rolled his eyes and he lay on the cloud! Daoist Duobao and Zhao Gongming looked down and could not help but laugh.

However, he saw Perfected Taiyi’s back…

His red robe was torn and tattered, and there were patches of green and purple on his back. His long hair had been burnt into the shape of a dog and was emitting wisps of green smoke! Perfected Taiyi took a deep breath and stuffed a handful of pills into his mouth. He slowly floated up, put away the Wind-Fire Wheel, and leaned beside Perfected Yu Ding.

He did not lose in a one-on-one battle!

He just did not have the chance to scold to his heart’s content!

Li Changshou asked in concern, “Senior Brother, how are your injuries?”

“It’s fine. I won’t die.” Perfected Taiyi smiled coldly. “What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger!”

Crack!

Perfected Yu Ding accurately slapped Perfected Taiyi’s mouth with his left hand. He first gestured for Perfected Taiyi to look at the welcoming Saint above the pagoda. Then, he cleared his throat and said softly, “My master, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning.” Li Changshou could not help but smile. He calmly took out four specially-made bronze mirrors-one for the livestream and three for the backup. He handed them to Perfected Yu Ding and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”

“Okay.”

Perfected Yu Ding received it with a smile and stood quietly with the mirror. In various parts of the Heavenly Courts, the Heavenly Courts’ immortals, Heavenly Soldiers, fairies, and Chang’e, who had been guarding the bronze mirrors, were all watching with bated breaths. Clearly, the situation had changed again. The Saint was seen on the Reincarnation Pagoda again. There were immortal corpses on the cloud path in front of the pagoda. It seemed that the Western Sect had indeed put in a lot of effort in the Reincarnation Pagoda. Otherwise, the two Saints would not have come together.

The spiritual treasures around the experts of the Dao Sect had yet to be taken away. The battle intent in the Goddess of Golden Spirit’s eyes did not decrease. The Five-colored Divine Light behind Kong Xuan’s back disappeared. Perfected Yu Ding put away his tripod. The smile on Daoist Duobao’s lips became gentler, but there was a hint of calmness and composure in his voice.

Confidence.

Jie Yin remained tight-lipped and a faint voice sounded from everywhere. “Changgeng from Ren School, go out and reply.” Li Changshou took two steps forward and bowed. Daoist Duobao and Fairy Yun Xiao followed behind him.

“Uncle-Master, I’m here.”

Jie Yin said, “Why did you lure someone to kill my disciple and destroy my Western treasure?”

“I’ve already discussed this matter.”

Li Changshou cupped his hands. At that moment, he did not need to say anything. He did not need to argue or change his mind. However, he still had to insist on raising the banner of helping the Western Sect! “Uncle-Master, do you know about the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom?”

“I know.” Saint Jie Yin said calmly, “The Western Sect is poor. We can use this to obtain more merit from incense offerings. It can consolidate our own luck and be beneficial to the stability of the world.”

Li Changshou’s heart skipped a beat. He knew that he would not be able to get away with it. Li Changshou calmed himself down and sighed.

“Aunt-Master, you should know very well what is happening in the Blood Sea.” Before he could answer, a wisp of Dao runes circulated.

Many scenes appeared in the hearts of the disciples of the Saints…

The originally vast sea of blood had changed color. Countless faint figures were floating in the air. There were many figures, and it was impossible to tell them apart. These ghosts did not have physical bodies to begin with. At that moment, many of them were embedded in each other…

Many ferocious beasts in the sea of blood were attracted by the spirits and were devouring them. However, the number of ferocious beasts was nothing compared to the spirits…

The scene changed again. Fengdu City was in chaos. Ferocious ghosts and fierce souls were wandering around. The “comets” had blown up this group of ferocious ghosts, giving Yin Si a headache.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation were affected and were filled with souls that wanted to reincarnate. There were also many ferocious ghosts and fierce souls there. A large number of ghosts in the sea of blood had already been attracted by the Reincarnation Disc…

Jie Yin looked to the side and said calmly, “Since you are here, why don’t you show yourself?” Li Changshou and the others heard a chuckle. A cloud appeared above their heads. A middle-aged Daoist sat on the cloud. He wore a tall crown and a luxurious robe. His face was similar to the Grandmaster of Heaven. The moment that Daoist appeared, the elegant, peaceful, and calming Dao runes circulated, easily resisting the pressure that Li Changshou and the others felt.

Yu Ding and Huang Long hurriedly addressed him as their teacher. Duobao, Jin Ling, Yun Xiao, and Zhao Gongming addressed him as Uncle-Master.

Kong Xuan still bowed slightly. Li Changshou still addressed him as Aunt-Master. On the other hand, Perfected Taiyi’s eyes were filled with tears when he saw his teacher. His legs turned weak and he almost knelt down…

“Ah! Ah! Ah!”

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning’s smile deepened. He pointed at Perfected Taiyi and smiled. “I’m here. Just speak.”

“Thank you, Teacher!”

Perfected Taiyi agreed and looked at Li Changshou.

Continue?

This time, he did not care about anything. Li Changshou did not dare to blink. Everything that had happened previously was under his control. He did not dare to express it recklessly now.

What Perfected Taiyi did next had nothing to do with the Little Qiong Peak and the Water God Residence!

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning looked over. Li Changshou was a little nervous. “Changgeng.”

“I’m here.”

“Come to the Jade Void Palace more often when you have time,” the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning said warmly. “The Great Tribulation is imminent. You are the person whom Senior Brother has chosen to go through the main tribulation. Don’t be biased.” Li Changshou said, “I will go to the Jade Void Palace later. Senior Brothers and Sisters, please guide me in cultivation!” The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning smiled and looked at Fairy Yun Xiao before looking away calmly.

“Go,” he said. “Answer whatever Dao Brother Guidance asks you. If he doesn’t ask well, don’t answer. If you can answer, answer better. My three friends’ words are still useful in this world.”

“Yes.”

Li Changshou replied respectfully and took two steps forward to return to his previous position. Talking to a Saint is really…

It was torturous.

There were too many meanings in the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning’s words. There were huge differences between the two! Why are all these Saints so unique? In comparison, the Grand Pure One is the easiest to get along with. It was time-consuming. Li Changshou said warmly, “Uncle-Master, do you have any other questions?” Saint Jie Yin asked, “Why do you want to destroy the opportunities of the Western Sect, kill my disciples, and snatch my Western Pagoda?”

“This matter actually has nothing to do with the senior brothers and sisters behind me.” Li Changshou sighed and said, “They came to help because of their friendship with me. I can’t implicate them.”

As soon as he said that, Duobao and Zhao Gongming were about to speak, but they were stopped by the hand gesture behind Li Changshou’s back. Li Changshou said, “Aunt-Master, I’m from Ren School. I was recognized by Senior Brother Great Daoist Master and brought into the Tushita Palace.

I was also liked by Teacher who has decided to teach me the Grand Pure Dao. However, I have another identity. I’m a third-order legitimate god of the Heavenly Courts. I’m an envoy established by the Jade Emperor. In the Western Sect, there are disciples of the Saints who had wreaked havoc in the Trichiliocosm and created the Divine Kingdom of incense. They have a great impact on the living beings of the mortal world.

The operation of the Heavenly Dao was affected by them. The Reincarnation Pagoda is used to consolidate the Divine Kingdom of incense. I was under the orders of His Majesty to plow the Immortal Dao Alliance of the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom in the Trichiliocosm. Therefore, I could not ignore this matter and had no choice but to interfere. Therefore, this situation happened. I thought that anyone who protects the Divine Kingdom of incense would interfere with the Heavenly Dao and be the enemy of the Heavenly Courts.”

After saying that, Li Changshou stood quietly.

Saint Jie Yin asked, “Who can explain the matter regarding the Reincarnation Pagoda to Changgeng?”

“Teacher.” Ksitigarbha stood up and said in a low voice, “I once traveled in the Trichiliocosm, which is very far from the Primordial World. Before countless souls could report to the Netherworld, they had already turned into ghosts. I suggest that we build this Reincarnation Pagoda for the common people of the world.”

Jie Yin raised his hand gently. Ksitigarbha understood and turned to look at Li Changshou. The light in their eyes flickered. It was as if there were whirlwinds around them. However, they suppressed the elegant demeanor of the disciples of the Saints.

Ksitigarbha took half, half, half…

“Huh?!”

Ksitigarbha turned his head and glared at his heels.

Truth Listener’s body had shrunk by more than half. At that moment, it was biting the back of Ksitigarbha’s Daoist robe and sending an anxious voice transmission. “Don’t go, Master. You are not the Water God’s match. You will be pushed out to take the blame later!”

“This is my last chance!”

Ksitigarbha cursed in his heart, “If I don’t stand up now, do you expect others to? They are the fastest when credit is involved. They usually know how to scheme and plot.” Li Changshou looked at Truth Listener. Truth Listener trembled twice and immediately let go of Ksitigarbha’s Daoist robe. It followed behind dejectedly.

Li Changshou cupped his hands and Ksitigarbha nodded with a smile.

Ksitigarbha said, “Fellow Daoist, what you mentioned is not true. I don’t know where you heard that rumor. The Western Sect established the Reincarnation Pagoda for the world…”

“Fellow Daoist, to be fair, if we don’t stand on the same side, I’m willing to brew tea with you.”

Li Changshou suddenly said that and took the opportunity to speak while Ksitigarbha was deep in thought. Li Changshou said, “Fellow Daoist, can you explain why Fengdu City was attacked at that moment?” Ksitigarbha said, “I don’t know about that. The evil spirits in the Netherworld are causing trouble. This situation seems to have happened a few times before.”

Li Changshou asked again, “In that case, why did the Reincarnation Pagoda choose this place? When I questioned you previously, you did not say that.”

“Previously, the Water God was aggressive. We all thought that the Dao Sect was here to spy on the opportunities of our Western Sect.” Ksitigarbha scanned the Dao Sect disciples behind Li Changshou and smiled confidently.

Ksitigarbha continued, “On the other hand, Fellow Daoist Changgeng is deceiving the Saint and causing a huge battle to break out here. He has harmed more than ten lives of my sect. What should we do?”

“Fellow Daoist, don’t change the topic. You and I have yet to explain the matter regarding the Reincarnation Pagoda.” Li Changshou said calmly, “At this moment, there are fierce souls in the Six Paths of Reincarnation. There are countless human souls in the sea of blood. The Reincarnation Pagoda has already been built. It just lacks the recognition of the Heavenly Dao. Fellow Daoist, are you telling me that all of this is a coincidence? You said that I lied to the Saint. Fellow Daoist, you are the one who is fooling the Saint.” Ksitigarbha frowned slightly. The two of them looked at each other, their battle intent burning.

Ksitigarbha thought quickly and replied, “Fellow Daoist, do you have proof that these souls were released by the Western Sect?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Did he activate the hidden attribute of Ksitigarbha?

It was indeed much harder to deal with than before.

Perfected Taiyi scoffed. “Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, you talked about evidence so casually. Then I’ll stew your mount today. As long as I deal with your mount cleanly and don’t leave any evidence, I can deny this matter?”

Truth Listener trembled when it heard that. Its eyes were filled with the desire to live.

An old Daoist priest from the Western Sect immediately replied, “Junior Brother Ksitigarbha is right. How can you prove that these souls were released by the Western Sect?”

Ksitigarbha frowned. There was a hint of annoyance in his eyes, but he did not say anything. Daoist Duobao sighed and said, “If we continue to talk like this, we might as well let my Junior Brother Gongming take action.” Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and smiled. “Then I’m going to lie down today.”

Half of the disciples of the Western Sect were immediately on guard. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning spoke again from above. “Brother Guidance, don’t let your disciple cause trouble. Even if the heavenly secrets are locked, do you still not know what happened after we defied the will of the Heavenly Dao?”

Daoist Jie Yin said, “Dao Brother, since you and I have appeared today, it’s to resolve this matter. Since we can’t argue anything, the Western Sect is willing to control the Reincarnation Pagoda with the Heavenly Courts and send the souls above the sea of blood into reincarnation. How about that?”

“Aunt-Master.” Li Changshou suddenly looked up. “I have proof.” The Daoist guide frowned and looked at Li Changshou. However, Li Changshou lowered his head to avoid the other party’s gaze and bowed. “I suddenly spoke. Please forgive me for offending you, Aunt-Master. I have proof, and it’s right here!”

“Changgeng, tell me.” The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning could not help but smile.

The middle-aged Daoist liked Li Changshou more and more.

Li Changshou took a deep breath and took out eight jade talismans from his chest pocket. He lined them up in the Eight Trigrams position in front of him and released clouds that condensed into a miniature map of the three thousand worlds and the five continents. “The one shining with red light on it is the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom that the Western Sect has built in the Trichiliocosm. What flickered with blue light was the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom that the Western Sect has the absolute upper hand in and is currently building. One of the proofs of the little god is to pull the mortals above the sea of blood to the front of the Netherworld Village Viewing Platform to show their hometown and see if they are from the Kingdom of incense!”

Ksitigarbha frowned.

There was a trap. Those words sounded very reasonable, but there was definitely a trap. However, Ksitigarbha could not figure out where it was. Li Changshou continued, “There are two pieces of evidence! I have once marked the souls of more than three thousand mortal elders who are nearing the end of their lifespans. Everyone, please take a look.”

Li Changshou pointed at a spot on the map. The place was shimmering with seven-colored lights. “Previously, these souls were reported to the Netherworld. However, at that moment, they are above the sea of blood! How can the Western Sect argue?”

The Western Sect was silent.

Yun Xiao was deep in thought. A faint smile appeared on her lips. She stared at Li Changshou’s back, which was extremely tall and straight. The years in her eyes were peaceful, and her heart was clear. At that moment, Ksitigarbha, who was in front of Li Changshou, seemed to have grasped the main point. An idea flashed in his mind and he immediately said, “Water God, your two proofs…”

“So what if we did it?” An old Daoist priest sighed and said, “Water God, we are only keeping these souls temporarily and using the merit from incense offerings to nourish them. It’s a good thing for them. However, I have to remind the Water God that 80% of the souls here have been left behind for more than hundreds of years. Without the nourishment of incense offerings, they will disintegrate after seven days. Their true souls will return to nothingness. My teacher has already said that he is willing to control the Reincarnation Pagoda with the Heavenly Courts. Why is the Water God still so aggressive…”

“Hahaha!”

Ksitigarbha suddenly raised his head and laughed. “Hahahahaha!”

The old Daoist priest who spoke frowned. “Junior Brother Ksitigarbha?”

“He’s using tricks! The Water God is tricking you!”

Ksitigarbha suddenly turned around and pointed at the old Daoist priest. He could not help but curse. “When those souls go to the Village Viewing Platform, they can see the scenery of their hometowns. Can they also know where this place is? They are only mortals! They would never be able to walk out of a radius of 500 kilometers! The Water God has only cultivated for a few hundred years and it has only been ten to twenty years since he went to the Trichiliocosm. Where could he go and what could he do? You guys! We lost everything!”

The old Daoist priest frowned and said, “Junior Brother Ksitigarbha, the Water God has always been thorough. Don’t force yourself and embarrass our teacher.”

Many disciples of the Western Sect looked at Ksitigarbha with unfriendly expressions. Ksitigarbha smiled bitterly and shook his head. He bowed to the guide who had closed his eyes at some point in time and said, “I’m willing to accept the punishment.”

Then, he turned around and looked at Li Changshou, who was smiling faintly. “Water God, the Western Sect only wants to get back some luck. We want more chips. When the great tribulation descended, many people in the sect panicked and wanted to accumulate more merit. Therefore, it resulted in a tragedy in the mortal world. My sect will investigate this matter and give the Heavenly Courts an explanation. Previously, when the Lady of Earth was trapped by the seven emotions, the Western Sect had also used the power of the Divine Kingdom of incense to gather the thoughts of all living beings and help the Lady of Earth find herself. Please be less impartial when you treat the Western Sect, Water God.”

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that he had won today. Perfected Taiyi smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, it’s not easy.”

Ksitigarbha turned around and walked towards the edge of the disciples of the Western Sect. The light in his eyes gradually retreated. That was probably the closest to winning the battle.

Forget it.

The old Daoist priest who had sent out the “aid” just now finally regained his senses.

However, those who came out to make a living were all particular about their pride. Especially after being scolded by Ksitigarbha, how could they take it lying down?

The old Daoist priest took half a step forward and turned around to bow to the Saint. He said, “Teacher, Junior Brother Ksitigarbha is too much…”

“Enough.” Jie Yin said calmly. The old Daoist priest’s eyes were filled with indignation. He sensed the gazes around him, which seemed to be mocking him. He said in a low voice, “Teacher, I want to prosper for the Western Sect!”

Crack!

With a loud slap, the old Daoist priest’s sleeves fluttered. His body flew out and hit the foundation of the Reincarnation Pagoda. He fell to the ground in a sorry state. Jie Yin sighed slowly and looked at Li Changshou. He said calmly, “Does the Heavenly Courts really want this pagoda?”

In other words, he wanted to give the Western Sect a chance to recoup their losses. Li Changshou said, “Although I don’t know why the Great Tribulation is happening, I can make the decision in the upcoming Great Tribulation. I can give the Western Sect six spots to help their Essence Souls.

The six of them are the disciples of the six Saints who had their essence souls killed. However, the Jade Emperor will decide who to save.” A person from the Western Sect said, “This is just to atone for your mistake today!” Li Changshou continued, “Previously, I picked up a treasure flag and was willing to exchange it for the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl.” The guide shook his head slightly and flicked his finger.

The Sea-Calming Divine Pearl landed in front of Zhao Gongming and returned to its owner. Zhao Gongming bowed and pushed the Green Lotus Flag out with his immortal power. Li Changshou asked the Taiji Painting to retract the Yin-Yang Qi on it halfway.

Li Changshou continued, “In that case, the Heavenly Courts are willing to use merit and precious materials to exchange for this Reincarnation Pagoda. How much merit and precious materials are there? I need the Jade Emperor to decide. However, I can promise that I can definitely match the value of the Reincarnation Pagoda.”

The Daoist priest nodded slowly and looked at the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning. He smiled and said, “Let them deal with this place. Dao Brother, why don’t we go to the Chaos Sea to persuade them?”

“Okay.”

The shadows of the two Saints disappeared leisurely after hearing that.

He rushed to the Chaos Sea to mediate.

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and turned to smile at Yun Xiao. The two of them looked at each other and remained silent…

“How dare you!”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit suddenly shouted softly. Her body turned into a golden light and rushed towards the Reincarnation Pagoda.

At the bottom of the Reincarnation Pagoda, the old Daoist priest, who had just been slapped by the Saint and collapsed at the bottom of the pagoda, had gray aura circulating between his eyebrows. He used all his might to smash the bottom of the pagoda with his palm and cursed, “Even if I destroy this pagoda that I personally refined, I will not let your Dao Sect benefit!”

Boom!

The bottom of the pagoda trembled. The pearl on the top floor, under the protection of layers of restrictions, shattered strangely. When Li Changshou turned around, he could not see the sword light from the Goddess of Golden Spirit, the shadows that the experts of the Western Sect had tried to stop, and…

The gray aura on the old Daoist priest’s forehead that had yet to dissipate… Great Tribulation Luck! Why is the Heavenly Dao like this?
