When the Dao Ancestor was killed by the Heaven-Opening Axe, Li Changshou felt a little complicated.
As he watched the Dao Ancestor’s body being crushed by the Heaven-Opening Axe, for some reason, he felt like he was missing the loneliness of an old friend.
Although he was very weak and helpless, he still had to do what he had to do.
Li Changshou turned around and whispered to Yun Xiao. Yun Xiao immediately sent a voice transmission to the Three Pure Ones…
Under Li Changshou’s suggestion, the Three Pure Ones attacked and wrapped the universe in the battleground. They used the Taiji Painting to refine it and raise the void.
The Grandmaster of Heaven and the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning went to the world together to search for Dao Ancestor Hong Jun’s backup plan.
Everyone felt that Hong Jun had been in charge of the world for countless years. Although Li Changshou had broken his defense, he had been killed too easily.
Actually, after thinking about it carefully, he was not too sure. It came from the battle of killing the Dao Ancestor without paying too much of a price.
Originally, this was a battle that was destined to be filled with misery and suffering.
Even if he suppressed Hong Jun and the natural source of the world, the world would collapse to different degrees because it lacked the power of origin.
Li Changshou had given a solution and pushed and executed it. In the end, he had achieved his goal.
A great battle that did not require bloodshed was completed.
Actually, there was no blood.
The vengeful spirits of the thousands of races in the ancient times flourished the entire sea of blood. The dragon and phoenix cried endlessly in the sea eye and volcano.
The ancient Spirit Clan was tied to the carriage of the Demon Court and buried under the Dao Ancestor’s sleeve.
The human race had been struggling bitterly since they were created. The so-called tempering given by the Heavenly Dao was only to bury hatred in the destiny of the human race and complete the changes of the Primordial World. It would deprive the living beings of their mobility in the world to the maximum.
The living beings of the Primordial World had already lost too much blood.
The True Spirit River pierced through the void. The True Spirits slowly flowed inside. They jumped to this world and projected to this world. Many of them did not find their purpose and had already returned.
The Daoist who had given the order of the Primordial World made the Primordial World extremely dangerous.
Li Changshou tried his best to follow the Heavenly Dao. He helped the Heavenly Courts reform and brought his understanding of the laws into the Heavenly Courts. He encouraged the Jade Emperor to walk the path that the Jade Emperor wanted to walk.
However, the living being in the Purple Cloud Palace continued to enjoy the script because of his paranoia…
That was why he did not want to bleed at the end.
Li Changshou thought that way and did not want to think too highly of himself. After all, he did not want to interfere.
No matter what, he had finally avenged his master.
“Senior Brother.” Ling’e’s eyes were red and swollen. She buried her head in Li Changshou’s arms and wrapped her arms around his waist gently.
Li Changshou patted her back with a smile and sighed.
Li Changshou’s eyelids twitched when he saw Hong Jun disappear. He did not say anything.
The end of the battle was just the beginning of the new world.
After the Heavenly Courts completed the connection with the new Heavenly Dao, Li Changshou finally felt relieved. He returned to the Tushita Palace with the Grand Supreme Elder and recuperated for five days with Ling’e and Yun Xiao.
Although he had yet to reach the Dao Realm, the spiritual energy in his body was abundant, and his lifespan was still that of a Golden Immortal. However, his face was slightly older.
In particular, Li Changshou felt a little weak under the contrast of Ling’e and Yun Xiao.
Over the past few days, the Tushita Palace had been filled with people.
The Jade Emperor stayed outside the door and did not take over the new Heavenly Dao.
It was not just the immortals of the Heavenly Courts. Many disciples of the Dao Sect came to the Tushita Palace to visit, but they were all blocked by the door.
That day, the door of the Tushita Palace slowly opened. Li Changshou walked out with Ling’e and Yun Xiao.
His long hair was grayish-white and he looked old. His smile was rather benevolent.
He was really an old immortal.
The Grand Supreme Elder protected Li Changshou’s Dao Fruit of Longevity, but he could not let Li Changshou cultivate again.
There was no other restriction that the Court of Dao had on the Guardians.
Although the Great Dao of Equalization had turned into a court of Dao, it did not completely leave Li Changshou. It also excluded the many Great Dao that Li Changshou cultivated.
To put it inappropriately, Li Changshou was…
The weakest Golden Immortal.
He could only use the spiritual energy drum to blow a violent gust of wind. The speed at which he recovered his spiritual energy was extremely slow. He was even worse than a Turbid Immortal.
The Dao was born from the Dharma, while the Dao was not.
At that moment, Li Changshou clearly controlled the Hall of Dao and was above countless immortal and mighty figures. He could change the sky of the Primordial World at any time. However, he did not have the strength to fight. His essence soul was almost exhausted.
Balance existed between all living beings.
Fortunately, Li Changshou was no longer afraid. After all, his junior sister had grown up. Most of the experts in the Primordial World were his own people.
In the future, he would not separate from Yun Xiao. Once the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice was out, apart from the original five Heavenly Dao Saints, most of them could fight.
Hard.
Li Changshou looked at the courtyard of the Tushita Palace and felt a little emotional.
Eldest Senior Brother did not rush back because he was afraid that the Grand Supreme Elder would nag and urge him to give birth. He waited with many good friends in a Small Dimension with good scenery. It would be time for them to meet later.
Now, he had to officially bid farewell to the Heavenly Courts.
Li Changshou placed his hands behind his back. Yun Xiao walked over and tidied his Daoist robe’s collar.
Ling’e asked softly, “Senior Brother, are you not staying here for a while longer?”
“No, I still have something to deal with.” Li Changshou blinked at Ling’e. “Have you sent the invitation to the Glacial Palace?”
“Yes… I got Nezha to send it over. Fairy Heng’e said that Senior Brother can go over anytime.”
Ling’e pursed her lips and held it in for a while before muttering softly,v”Senior Brother, you can’t really have designs on Fairy Heng’e, right? I don’t mind having another sister, but you should consider Sister Yun Xiao’s feelings.vSister Yun Xiao has been quietly keeping a low profile for your sake. People have almost forgotten her name as a ruthless person in the Primordial World.”
Li Changshou squinted and smiled. “Do you really not care?”
“Yes… a little.”
Yun Xiao smiled gently and held Ling’e’s arm. She said gently, “Don’t think too much. Fairy Heng’e is ultimately a disciple of his hometown.”
“Look.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Learn more from Yun. Don’t always doubt your senior brother’s character.”
Yun Xiao whispered in Ling’e’s ear, “He can’t defeat us now.”
Ling’e blinked and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Li Changshou with a flushed face.
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Why is my status in the family so low?
Immortal families are very real.
“We’re going out. Pay attention to your expression.”
After saying that, Li Changshou raised his head and puffed out his chest. He raised his dignity as a man and walked out of the Tushita Palace.
“Changgeng!”
The Jade Emperor quickly walked to the top of the stairs. When he saw Li Changshou’s figure, he heaved a sigh of relief. He was at a loss for words.
“As long as you’re fine.”
“Your Majesty, I cherish my life so much. Why would I fight the Dao Ancestor?” Li Changshou lowered his head and bowed. “From now on, please forgive me for not being able to serve you, Your Majesty.”
The Jade Emperor hurriedly said, “Rest in peace. Find the best place in the Heavenly Courts to rest.”
“Your Majesty, don’t forget the Courts of the Dao,” Li Changshou said seriously. “The Courts of the Dao are in my spiritual platform. We can’t stay in the Primordial World for long. We have to go to the outer space.”
The Jade Emperor frowned and his eyes were filled with reluctance.
Li Changshou smiled and said, “I will naturally come back often to visit Your Majesty. Moreover, Your Majesty, I’m already like this. I can’t continue working in the Heavenly Courts. It’s time for me to rest.”
The Jade Emperor sighed. “Sorry, I’m useless as the Heavenly Emperor.”
“Your Majesty, you’re already very outstanding.”
Li Changshou took out two treasure pouches from his sleeve and filled them with jade talismans.
He said, “I hope that Your Majesty will continue to hold on to your current beliefs in the future. Here are some admonishments that I have written and the plans for the thirty-six divine artifacts. You have to fulfill it step by step.”
“Yes.” The Jade Emperor took the treasure pouch. Unexpectedly, his hands sank down. Then, he nodded heavily. “Definitely.”
Li Changshou bowed to the Jade Emperor with Yun Xiao and Ling’e. He looked behind the Jade Emperor and walked forward.
“Master.” Long Ji’s eyes were red. She whispered, “I’m willing to follow you.”
Li Changshou nodded with a smile and said, “Then I’ll teach you something.”
Ling’e walked forward from the side and pulled Long Ji behind Li Changshou. Long Ji hurriedly bowed to Ling’e and Yun Xiao and addressed them as “Mistress”.
Zhao Gongming and the Goddess of Golden Spirit continued to walk forward. They brought a group of Jie School immortals over.
Zhao Gongming’s expression collapsed. He said in a low voice, “Tell me. I’ll go for you.”
“It’s just that I don’t have the strength to fight.” Li Changshou persuaded him instead. “The price is already the smallest. Moreover, I’m now the guardian of the Court of Dao. There are losses and gains.”
The Goddess of Golden Spirit asked, “Can’t you condense your Dao and cultivate? What about the Void Dispelling Great Dao?”
Li Changshou pondered for a while and said seriously, “It’s not appropriate for the guardians of the Court of Dao to have too much strength. There is balance here. The rules of the world are not just what I wrote. They are just the most basic safeguards. The Primordial Three Realms has its own balance.”
“I see.” The Goddess of Golden Spirit nodded slowly and pulled the two boys behind her. “Come and greet your uncle.”
The two boys in Daoist robes immediately walked forward and bowed to Li Changshou.
“Greetings, Uncle.”
The speed at which they grew up was really slow.
“Ah, okay, okay,” Li Changshou said warmly. “You guys learn well. When I move the Kun Peng Mystic Realm back to the Primordial World, you can go to my place to play. I have prepared the most sutras for you!”
The two boys’ eyes lit up and they cheered.
Li Changshou looked at Zhao Gongming. The latter gave Li Changshou a thumbs-up, indicating that he had received the signal.
Let’s meet later.
As he walked forward, he encountered a famous general of the Heavenly Courts.
Nezha sniffed and shouted aggrievedly, “Uncle Chang’an.”
Li Changshou raised his hand and touched his head. He said warmly, “Don’t be like that. It’s not like we’re going to separate now. I’m just going to a place far away. When you get a break, just call Golden Roc and the others over to see me. I’ll go back and recuperate first.”
Nezha chuckled. “Then I’ll take a break. I’ll stay for a few years every time I go!”
“I’ll leave a place for you at the Little Qiong Peak. When you have time, go to the Glacial Palace to communicate with Fairy Yu Tu.”
“She’s too delicate.” Nezha frowned and said, “She even said that I didn’t hold back. She was clearly the one who wanted to spar! However, the mooncakes she made were very delicious.”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
He patted Nezha’s shoulder and continued walking forward.
“Lord Taibai Jinxing!”
Bian Zhuang bowed with a large number of Heavenly Generals.
Li Changshou looked at Bian Zhuang and smiled.
“In the future, take care of yourself. Although your appetite and lust are natural, you cannot indulge yourself. You should not be lustful or unfaithful. Now that there is no such thing as destiny in the world, if you dare to break the Heavenly rules, there will be no way to save your life.”
Bian Zhuang immediately felt a little guilty. He scratched his head and stammered. He did not know what to say and could only nod solemnly in agreement.
“Godfather.”
Li Jing took the initiative to bow with cupped hands. His eyes were filled with guilt. He sighed and said, “I’m useless.”
“Ah.” Li Changshou patted Li Jing’s shoulder. “Don’t say that. Don’t say the word ‘foster father’. Otherwise, others will think that you’re trying to curry favor.”
Li Jing smiled in embarrassment. He had specially shaved his beard. At that moment, he looked like a child in front of Li Changshou, who looked old.
Li Changshou wanted to say something, but he realized that Li Jing did not need to be reminded.
“Help the Jade Emperor well,” Li Changshou said warmly. “Although the Three Realms are peaceful, there are still hidden dangers. You can’t let your guard down.”
Li Jing said seriously, “Yes, Master.”
“Okay.”
Li Changshou said in an old tone. He smiled and walked past Li Jing towards the smiling three old immortals of the Heavenly Courts.
The Immortal Elder of the South Pole, the God of Marriage, Elder Moon, and the old messenger of the Heavenly Courts, General Dongmu.
The Old Man of the South Pole took out a treasure pouch from his sleeve and smiled.
“Junior Brother Changgeng, there’s a protective Dharma treasure that Teacher gave you. If you have the chance to visit the Jade Void Palace, it might help your injuries.”
Elder Moon was puzzled. “Is Lord Taibai Jinxing injured?”
Li Changshou smiled and shook his head. “It’s not a big deal.”
“Changgeng… ahem.”
General Dongmu could not help but feel that his voice was a little hoarse. He lowered his head and sighed. “In the end, I can’t help you much.”
“General Dongmu is the pillar of the Heavenly Courts,” Li Changshou encouraged. “It’s because the path I chose is too remote and I did not discuss it with everyone in advance. General Dongmu, there are some standard documents here and some suggestions that you need to submit. Whether the Heavenly Courts can operate properly in the future and convince the living beings would depend on their benevolence. The Heavenly Courts that I want to see is one that respect the world and living beings. I need you to supervise and inform me about it.”
“Yes, don’t worry, Lord Taibai Jinxing!”
“Elder Moon.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Thank you for your care.”
“Hey, you flatter me.” A certain Heavenly Courts’ first incarnation of the Jade Emperor hurriedly waved his hand. “If you did not remind me along the way, I would have died long ago.”
Li Changshou lowered his head and bowed. The three old immortals bowed at the same time.
A large number of immortals lowered their heads and bowed. Li Changshou returned the greeting.
The immortals, who were originally worried about Li Changshou’s injuries, realized Li Changshou’s strange state and turned their comforting words into blessings.
The Dao Fruit was still there but the Dao was gone.
The Dao Realm was gone, but he could live forever.
There was also a kind of thoroughness that floated outside and was not tainted by the mortal world.
That was probably a realm.
Li Changshou’s next stop was the Moon Palace. He wanted to visit Heng’e before leaving the Heavenly Courts.
The Jade Emperor had personally given Zhao Gongming the Heavenly Courts’ orders. He wanted Zhao Gongming to send Li Changshou to the Kun Peng Mystic Realm to settle down before returning to the Heavenly Courts to report.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit wanted to go to Li Changshou’s group of relatives and friends for a gathering, but she had no choice. She wanted to see the two children.
The two brothers Ziwei and Gou Chen were currently at the crucial moment of their Dao formation. It was not appropriate for them to go out and move around.
Nezha and Long Ji followed behind and headed towards the Moon Palace.
As they approached the Moon Palace, they heard some “music”. Melodious string music slowly came from the front. Hundreds of Chang’e danced under the laurel tree, revealing the beauty of fairies.
Zhao Gongming sighed and said, “Changgeng, you’ve sweat a lot here.”
*Coughs*
Li Changshou’s aura almost went wrong. He glared at Zhao Gongming and hurriedly corrected Yun Xiao and Ling’e. “I was once the head instructor for a period of time. I only sat at the side and drank tea and taught them to dance.”
Yun Xiao and Ling’e chuckled.
In front of the Glacial Palace, the palace door was pushed open. A nimble young girl jumped out and hurriedly said to Li Changshou, “Lord Taibai Jinxing, you’re back!”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Can you remove the words?
Do you know how many ways to write it!?!
Why do I feel that the Heavenly Courts are filled with malice towards me?
What’s wrong with this world? I’m about to get married. Is everyone trying to make a big issue out of me?!
However… Li Changshou had to enter the Glacial Palace alone.
Li Changshou coughed and said slowly, “I’m going to visit my old friend. Wait for me here for a while. I’ll be out soon.”
Yun Xiao agreed gently. Ling’e made an urging gesture.
Li Changshou pushed open the wooden door of the Glacial Palace and looked at himself internally. He looked at the Taiji Painting, the Chaos Bell, and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, who were floating beside the miniature palace, and calmly entered.
Safe.
The wooden door slowly closed, but there was a gap.
Heng’e stood in front of the pavilion. She had light makeup on and placed her hands in front of her abdomen. The dress on her body was carefully selected.
She bowed and called him Lord Taibai Jinxing. Then, she looked at Li Changshou in confusion.
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Moon Lord, don’t bother about me. I’m here to meet an old friend, or rather, to bring this old friend to meet you.”
Heng’e’s fingertips trembled slightly. She lowered her head and agreed.
Li Changshou took the initiative. He saw two stone stools and a chessboard under a tree not far away and walked over.
He sat at the side and looked at the chessboard.
Heng’e, who was at the side, did not understand. However, when Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, how do you think we should resolve this?”
On the stone bench on the other side, rice-like light spots appeared out of thin air. As the light spots trembled, they transformed into a middle-aged scholar. He had a white face, no facial hair, and could not be considered handsome. He was dressed in a black Daoist robe and sat opposite Li Changshou.
The person looked at Heng’e and smiled apologetically.
Heng’e lowered her head and did not say anything. However, her fingers gripped her sleeve tightly.
The person looked at Li Changshou and sighed. “Thank you. We only have one chance to meet. You can still bring me to see this only disciple.”
“You’re welcome,” Li Changshou said. “I previously promised the Moon Lord. I was a little evasive at that time. Today, I invited her to see who the master I really can’t remember is.”
“You win.” The person smiled, his eyes filled with peace.
He looked at Li Changshou as if he was looking at a friend whom he had not seen for many years. He said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I’ve caused a lot of trouble for this world and you.”
Li Changshou waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to mention it. It’s already in the past.”
The person was puzzled. “However, I still don’t understand. How do you know that I can meet you one last time?”
Li Changshou said, “Senior Lang is you, but you’re not Senior Lang. Hong Jun and Senior Lang actually did not have a distinction between master and subordinate. The other Fiend Ancestor and Randeng did not have a distinction between master and subordinate. They were all your personalities after being magnified by endless loneliness. At the end of the day, they are just a part of you. No one has a single personality, so they all look different. However, your personality is closer to Lang. This makes Hong Jun and Rahu feel that Lang is the main body. Be it Hong Jun or Lang, they are actually you. However, you are not them. Only when everything returns to zero and the balance is restored will you be complete and can appear again. Right?”
The person smiled self-deprecatingly. “You really knew long ago…”
“Dao Ancestor Hong Jun has let me off too many times.” Li Changshou sighed and said, “When it comes to me, Dao Ancestor Hong Jun will become a little hesitant and even indecisive. In fact, even when I turned around to pressure Hong Jun, Hong Jun still let off the relatives and friends that I cared about. That’s ridiculous.”
“This is actually Hong Jun’s personality.” The person smiled and said, “It’s not because of me. ‘He’ was originally my hypocritical side. Sometimes, hypocrisy can be a form of self-hypnosis to make oneself do some gentle things. I’m not a gentle person. You can treat Lang and Hong Jun as versions of me at different ages. My personality has changed. I’m actually very conflicted. My heart is filled with gloom, but I have the desire to live. I always want to die and leave it at that. I also want to continue living and even disregard everything for that.”
Li Changshou said, “It’s not good to be hypocritical.”
The person smiled and said, “Actually, I thought that you would call the experts of the Three Realms to create a spectacular battle against the Heavenly Dao. If I die in such a huge battle, I will have no regrets.”
Li Changshou frowned slightly and stared at the person.
“Senior, you have been too affected by the Primordial World. You underestimate the lives of living beings. The weak should not be the supporting role of the strong. Every living being should respect them. That is the principle that Master taught me. Although it’s very idealistic, it’s also a belief.”
The person smiled awkwardly. “Probably. After all, I don’t know what I want or want to pursue.”
“My master said before,” Li Changshou said, “You have to learn to respect others.”
“Alright, alright. I’ve been lectured again.”
The person shrugged. “Between you and me, we don’t look like senior and junior at all.”
Li Changshou smiled. “Forget it. There’s no point in saying that now.”
“Ah.” The person sighed and looked at Heng’e. He slowly said, “I really want to go back and take a look. Unfortunately, I can’t. I’m about to disappear.”
Li Changshou said seriously, “Is there anything else?”
“That’s all. When I could make the decision to think, my last thought was how to disappear. Now, I’ve finally done it. Tsk. Sorry, I didn’t know that I would cause such a mess.
At that time, I only mistakenly thought that this place was the Chaos Sea. I was just too bored at that time. I had a sudden thought. I really did not know that by pushing the world, so many avatars with negative personalities would be born. It resulted in them deciding the destiny of the entire world. I… The side that I cannot control would harm so many people and cause so much evil. It’s too messy.”
His figure began to fade. The light spots around him kept scattering, and his voice trembled.
“Do you think Brother Pangu will forgive me?”
Li Changshou smiled and nodded slightly.
“When the Pangu God saw Hong Jun in the Chaos Sea, he had already seen everything that happened today. Do you really think that the Dao Realm of the Primordial Boundless Chaos Saint was just for show? Go. He’s waiting for you to apologize.”
“Will I? Really… will I…”
The person muttered and turned into streams of light. There were no traces left.
Li Changshou sat there and fell into a daze. When he turned around, he could not see Heng’e.
In the end, he forgot to ask his name.
However, he still had to thank… Grandmaster.
…
On the charred and broken Huaguo Mountain.
Sun Wukong sat there in a daze and looked at the colorful clouds in the sky. On the black stone dozens of feet away, Yang Jian grabbed the wine pot and looked at the bronze mirror in front of him. He did not know why he had to accompany the monkey.
A white cloud came from the sky. Yang Jian looked up and instantly stood up.
He grabbed the three pointed, double-edged spear, put on the red embellished golden battle helmet, and bowed to the dozen figures on the white cloud.
“Greetings, Uncle-Master!”
Li Changshou smiled and nodded. Zhao Gongming pointed out a white cloud and slowly descended with Li Changshou.
Zhao Gongming gestured for Li Changshou to do as he pleased. Li Changshou walked straight to the petrified Sun Wukong and smiled. “Great Sage?”
Only then did Sun Wukong turn around and look at Li Changshou for a while. He recognized that it was the white-haired elder from before and hurriedly stood up and cupped his fists.
He wanted to speak but did not know how to address the person in front of him. He could only scratch his head and say, “Old hero, don’t tease me. What Great Sage?”
Li Changshou almost laughed out loud and said, “Wukong, I was too busy previously and did not have the chance to come here. I also lost my Great Dao and the help of the Heavenly Fiend Dao. I also could not remotely control the fake body. I’ve made you wait.”
Sun Wukong was a little stunned.
Li Changshou calmly raised his hand and pointed to a spot not far away. The universe was quiet.
He forgot that he could not cast any spells.
“Yang Jian, use your Divine Eye to look there and undo the seal there.”
“Okay!”
Yang Jian agreed firmly. The divine eye on his forehead opened and shone out the location of a Mustard Cosmos. Then, he casually pulled open the door of the Mustard Cosmos.
Monkey spirits jumped out and sized up the surroundings…
“King! It’s the King!”
Sun Wukong’s body stiffened. He turned his head in disbelief and saw the jumping monkeys.
Zhao Gongming took half a step forward and protected Li Changshou behind him.
Li Changshou only smiled. He did not want to disturb Sun Wukong’s reunion with the monkeys. He said to Yang Jian, “Go and have a few drinks. Your master and the others have already gone to the front to wait.”
“This,” Yang Jian said. “Uncle-Master, Uncle-Master, go first. I’ll follow later.”
Zhao Gongming smiled and brought Li Changshou and Yun Xiao to meet up. Then, they headed towards the horizon.
The Huaguo Mountain, which was in a mess, suddenly became lively because of the appearance of the monkeys. Sun Wukong grinned and did not know what to say.
When the white cloud was far away, Sun Wukong pushed aside the monkeys and rushed in front of Yang Jian.
“That old hero…”
“Let’s go,” Yang Jian said calmly. “However, you have to thank me. I can bring you along.”
“I want to go, I want to go!”
“At least you know how to appreciate it.” Yang Jian put away the three pointed, double-edged spear and smiled. “Pack up. Don’t be so sloppy. If you have no place to arrange it, you can send it to Mount E’mei. Also, don’t call me an old hero. This is my Uncle-Master, and also… the master of the Court of Dao, the mighty figure of Ren School, escaped. He was one of the people who saved all living beings. He was the Second Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Courts, the Jade Emperor’s close friend, the spokesperson of the Dao Sect, the most trusted disciple of the Three Pure Ones, the head instructor of the Heavenly Courts’ Three Hundred Chang’e, Taibai Jinxing, the Water God, the Sea God, 98% of the Dao Ancestor in the past, the destroyer of the demons, the one whom the Goddess publicly said was her favorite human junior, the inheritor of the Great Dao of Torch Flame, the Sect Leader of the Steadiness Sect, Yun Xiao, and Ling’e, the Dao companions of the two fairies. However, I heard that in order to secretly resist the Heavenly Dao’s selfish desires, he disguised himself and used his incarnation to travel in the Primordial World. He used a fake identity to call himself Patriarch Subhuti.”
“Bod… Master?”
Sun Wukong suddenly turned around and looked at the cloud that had disappeared in the sky.
Yang Jian smiled and did not say anything. He suddenly felt a little happy.
Just as Sun Wukong was about to turn over, he was pulled back by Yang Jian. Yang Jian smiled and said, “What’s the hurry? Let’s settle your monkey grandson first. I’ll bring you to find him.”
“Alright! Yes! No problem! I didn’t expect a three-eyed monster like you to have such a conscience!”
Yang Jian’s face darkened and he threw a kick.
Sun Wukong nimbly dodged and repeatedly bowed and begged for mercy. After all, he had a favor to ask of others, so he could not be too arrogant.
Outside the five continents.
Just as the white cloud flew out of the horizon, Li Changshou suddenly shouted for it to stop.
The immortals were puzzled. Li Changshou looked at the ends of the world and gestured for Zhao Gongming to create an immortal power barrier. He took out two small items and placed them on his waist.
Anti-reconnaissance Set—Sensing Stone, Sensing Pearl.
Zhao Gongming was puzzled. “What’s wrong, Brother? Can’t we do whatever we want in this world? Why are we so careful?”
Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to focus.
He took out a Golden Cicada from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Gongming. He said, “This is the Golden Cicada. When you’re free, help me return it to Saint Jie Yin. This is considered a half-disciple of Jie Yin. I originally used it to threaten the Dao Ancestor. At that time, I thought that the Dao Ancestor wanted to kill Sun Wukong, so I killed Tang Sanzang. However, I did not use it later.”
“By the way, what’s going on with the Dao Ancestor?”
“The situation is very complicated,” Li Changshou said. “It’s just that the Dao Ancestor’s Dao heart was affected. In the end, he chose not to escape but to face the path of fate calmly. It’s also considered a way to reconcile with himself.”
The immortals nodded slowly.
They could not understand.
“I’ll be busy first. Don’t make everyone wait.”
As he spoke, Li Changshou took out a brocade box from his sleeve and slowly opened it. Brilliant golden light flickered inside.
“Senior Brother, what is this?”
Ling’e asked softly.
“Golden Core.” Li Changshou calmly picked up the Golden Core and said slowly, “A little trump card.”
“Yes?”
Li Changshou said, “Isn’t that so? The Great Dao of Equalization has been sacrificed. The Court of Dao doesn’t allow me to cultivate other Dao. However, I have to have the strength to fight. Otherwise, I won’t be able to survive in the Chaos Sea. Don’t underestimate this Golden Core. There is a Dao hidden inside. It is the Dao that the Grand Pure One taught me. The Dao is in between the Golden Core. The Golden Core is in my body. Doesn’t that mean that there is a Dao and can be used?”
After saying that, Li Changshou put the Golden Pill into his mouth and swallowed it.
That was it!
If I swallow a Golden Core, my life will be up to me… and the heavens.
After a while, the Dao runes around Li Changshou condensed again. Black and white mystic rays appeared around him. The Great Dao that the Grand Pure One Water Deity chapter carried circulated again.
It was not too late.
The Court of Dao had caused his Dao Body and essence soul to suffer a huge loss, which was also damaging his essence energy.
Actually… he had a little trump card.
Li Changshou formed seals with his hands. His mind instantly connected to the first few batches of paper effigies that were buried in the world and made by himself.
In an instant, spots of starlight flew up from all five continents of the Primordial World. Paper effigies flew into the sky and saluted Li Changshou. The paper effigies burned themselves.
The wisps of essence soul power contained in it turned into streams of light and flew into the sky. They were sent to the ends of the world by the Great Dao of the universe.
They’re back, they’re all back!
Li Changshou took out two pills and consumed them. Then, he took a deep breath. His grayish-white hair slowly turned black, and his wrinkles disappeared at a visible speed.
Not long after, the young Daoist stood up and blinked at the immortals behind him.
“Don’t be surprised. It just helped me recover a little,” Li Changshou explained patiently. He recalled the treasure pouch that the Old Man of the South Pole had given him and took out the protective Dharma treasure inside.
Uh, ordinary Pangu Banner.
The three-piece set to protect the Court of Dao should have been decided by Teacher.
Li Changshou sighed and put the Pangu Banner into his body, making the Pagoda Master instantly become the Pagoda Master.
“The weakest Golden Immortal”.
