Chapter 558 - Plucking Grapes and Capturing Bodhi!
Chapter 558: Plucking Grapes and Capturing Bodhi!
The night was dark and the wind was strong. It was the night of the murder, when the Treasure Cave gathered.
In an inconspicuous forest in the southeast of the Middle Continent, a few experts from the Dao Sect were staring at each other in a mysterious hole in the universe.
They had followed the guidance of a jade token and entered the hole formed by Daoist Duobao’s mystical abilities. Then, they followed Daoist Duobao’s guidance and arrived there…
However, not to mention the people who came later, even Daoist Duobao himself was shocked.
Didn’t Junior Brother Changgeng say that he wanted to get rid of a huge problem in the sect?
As he muttered in his heart, Daoist Duobao frowned and looked at the few people in front of him. Apart from the two members of Chan School, the others were his old fellow disciples.
The people from Chan School were Perfected Taiyi and Yun Zhongzi. The former had a very powerful mystical ability, while the latter was famous for being a Golden Immortal. They had good backgrounds and were very blessed.
Apart from his eldest senior brother, there were Junior Sister Jin Ling and Junior Brother Zhao Gongming. Yun Xiao and Qiong Xiao were still on the way. They would only arrive after a while…
Just as Daoist Duobao was about to speak, he sensed the Five-colored Divine Light flash in the sky. It was the mighty figure of the phoenix race, Kong Xuan, who had arrived and entered the entrance of a cave.
The greatest threat to the Dao Sect?
Daoist Duobao’s eyes lit up before he took a deep breath. A bold possibility surfaced in his heart.
Could it be that they are going to scheme against the Little Saint of the Western Sect today?
If Senior Brother Xuan Du appeared later and had the help of the Taiji Painting and other treasures, there would really be a reason for the battle today!
Daoist Duobao’s Dao heart, which had been silent for many years, suddenly began to ripple.
He looked to the left and roughly deduced Junior Brother Changgeng’s arrangements.
First, Perfected Taiyi spoke in a strange manner and provoked the Saint to attack. Then, he used the situation to say that the little Saint was bullying the young. From that, he set the tone for today’s matter.
Then, Yun Zhongzi stood up and suffered a palm strike from the Saint. He pretended to be seriously injured and put an end to the situation where his Second Uncle-Master was biased towards the Western Sect!
After that…
That’s right. Junior Brother Changgeng’s Great Dao of All Things is the key. Isn’t the Great Dao that this fellow comprehended used to deter Saints?
Now that Junior Brother Changgeng’s cultivation level has improved and he has the protection of Uncle-Master, who would be able to balance Changgeng’s Great Dao of Equalization once he reached the Dao Realm of Senior Brother Xuan Du?
He could not use the Great Dao of Equalization to lower his strength when he fought with others.
Come to think of it, Junior Brother Changgeng was probably prepared for this.
In that case, the treasures of Ren School would be taken out, and the experts of Jie School would risk their lives to take out the treasure vault and destroy thirty percent of the treasure vault!
Then, Kong Xuan’s mystical Five-colored Divine Light flashed, and Junior Brother Gongming’s Sea-Calming Divine Pearl used the power of the universe to suppress it. His master secretly pointed a finger, and the Grandmaster, Great Uncle Yun, appeared and slapped the receiving Daoist away…
From today onwards, the five Saints of the Primordial World!
The few of them were the ones who had slaughtered the Saints. Their names had been passed down through the ages and resounded in the heavens!
Hehehe, hehehehe…
“Eldest Senior Brother, Eldest Senior Brother?”
Zhao Gongming’s voice sounded from the side, causing Daoist Duobao, who was lost in his thoughts, to regain his senses. He raised his hand and coughed.
Perfected Taiyi put his hands in his sleeves and smiled. “Changgeng called us over, but he did not appear. Tsk, he’s really becoming more and more like a senior expert.”
Zhao Gongming hurriedly said, “You can’t say that. Changgeng is definitely not arrogant. He will naturally make other arrangements. We have nothing to do. Let’s just wait here for a while. There might be others coming.”
“The others…”
The Goddess of Golden Spirit was a little dissatisfied. She said calmly, “I keep feeling that Changgeng is worried about us. I don’t know who he’s going to get rid of this time. He’s just a huge trouble for the Dao Sect.”
Daoist Duobao, who felt that he had guessed the answer, revealed a slightly honest and smug smile.
It was the first time that Yun Zhongzi had participated in such a matter. Although Perfected Yu Ding had gone to “supervise” Yang Jian’s training, Perfected Taiyi could easily be beaten up if he went out alone. After receiving Li Changshou’s permission, he invited Yun Zhongzi over.
He knew himself well.
Yun Zhongzi stroked his beard and asked softly, “Do you know who Changgeng is targeting this time?”
A few gazes immediately looked at Zhao Gongming and then at Daoist Duobao. The latter smiled faintly. “We’ll talk about it when Changgeng comes. He will definitely surprise us.
Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan is here. Let’s welcome him.”
As soon as Zhao Gongming finished speaking, Kong Xuan flew over from the hole on the side with the Five-colored Divine Light and landed in front of them. The Goddess of Golden Spirit’s eyes lit up, and Zhao Gongming and Daoist Duobao praised.
Perfected Taiyi wanted to speak, but he subconsciously closed his mouth and raised his hand to cough.
Mouth: I can complain about the sudden division of Yin and Yang.
Hands: No, you don’t.
Moreover, Kong Xuan’s current appearance was dignified and beautiful. Her long phoenix-like eyes were perfectly matched with her upturned nose. Her thin willowy eyebrows made the corners of her eyes look slightly charming. Her face was even gentler than the last time she appeared. Her skin was much fairer and had the texture of jade.
Today, she came after hearing the news and answered Li Changshou’s call. She helped that man’s junior brother dress up.
The five-colored dress was only as thick as thin wings, and the pure white undergarment was more elegant. There was a faint golden chain around her slender neck, and the supreme-grade Green Venerable Spirit Stone below was already extinct in ancient times.
As soon as she appeared, the cave became even more vibrant. Both her and the Goddess of Golden Spirit had their own merits.
Kong Xuan bowed slightly and turned to the corner to rest. Li Changshou was not around, so she naturally did not want to say anything to others.
The immortals waited for a while. Fairy Yun Xiao and Fairy Qiong Xiao flew over together. They bowed and waited quietly.
Perfected Taiyi observed the situation in the cave with interest and realized that if Li Changshou was not there, the experts were not united.
Not long after, Li Changshou and a middle-aged man in a golden armor and a red cloak appeared.
“Uncle-Master Jade Emperor?”
Daoist Duobao muttered. He was originally wondering why Li Changshou had brought an unfamiliar immortal with him. At that moment, he remembered the Jade Emperor’s incarnation for the first time.
Li Changshou maintained the appearance of a young Daoist. He was 30% to 40% similar to his main body. It could be considered a form of respect for the few big shots who had come to help today.
It’s not because Yun Xiao is here!
When he arrived at the cave with the Heavenly Courts Marshal in golden armor and red cloak, he first smiled at Yun Xiao. The latter nodded slightly in response.
Then, Li Changshou took the initiative to introduce.
“Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, this is the Heavenly Courts’ general, Quan Dong. He is here to help us.”
The middle-aged general chuckled and cupped his hands. The immortals’ faces were slightly smaller. They looked like they did not know Quan Dong’s background.
He tried his best to cooperate with the enthusiastic Heavenly Courts’ ruler.
Quan Dong smiled and said, “Everyone, please discuss. I’m just here to join in the fun.”
Li Changshou had already taken out a scroll from his sleeve. He first expressed his gratitude to the big shots for appearing and helping him. He spread the scroll out of thin air and pressed it down. He called the few of them to take a look.
“This is the first plan of this operation. It’s also the strategy with the highest success rate and the least easy tasks. The first thing to do today is to keep it a secret. We can’t leave any truth for the Western Sect…”
Upon hearing that, Daoist Duobao raised his eyebrows and wanted to say something, but he held back.
How could he not be honest?
He could not hide the fact that he had defeated the two Saints of the Western Sect, right?
Li Changshou continued, “I have already asked Teacher to take action and lock onto the other party’s whereabouts. At this moment, he is hiding in the depths of the South Ocean to cultivate. Apart from him, there are seven to eight experts from the Western Sect.”
The Grand Pure One has taken action?
Daoist Duobao was relieved. That’s stable. I don’t have to be afraid of anything today. I just have to do it!
Breaking the schemes of the Western Sect’s two Saints was equivalent to destroying the opportunity for the Western Sect to prosper. It would make the Western Sect unable to cause any trouble in the upcoming Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
I have to say that although Junior Brother Changgeng is a little reliable, he is indeed daring.
Huh? Why does Changgeng’s next words sound a little… wrong?
“This time, we can’t use our own Dharma treasures. We also have to conceal the Dao runes. I have already set up a few array discs and used Cosmic Teleportation. After capturing him in Land A, we will use the speed of an ordinary Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal to fly to Land B and enter the array formation. I will cause more than five disturbances in the universe at the same time to confuse the other party. Just in case, after we capture this disciple of the Western Sect, we have to do something to hide the entire time. Even if he escapes, we don’t know who attacked him and how to take revenge.”
The Goddess of Golden Spirit asked, “Can’t we just kill the other party?”
“There’s still a use for keeping him alive.” Li Changshou opened his right hand, and wisps of black aura condensed into a roaring ferocious beast. “This is the mystical ability that I’ve recently figured out, the Dao heart demon seed. This is a demonic seed refined from an otherworldly demon. Putting it in the other party’s Dao heart is equivalent to locking his Dao Realm. The otherworldly demons only need to hook up the gaps in his Dao heart and make him lose his Dao heart. We don’t have to be afraid that he would not be controlled. Of course, I have also prepared other methods, such as Essence Soul shackles and control of the soul. Later, I might use them on him at the same time to ensure that he is used by me and protects the Dao Sect. If he would rather die than submit, we can fulfill his integrity.”
Dao heart demon…
Refine the otherworldly demons…
Daoist Duobao frowned and said, “Changgeng?”
“What’s wrong, Senior Brother?”
“Aren’t we going to fight the Saints today?”
It was dead silent in the cave.
Li Changshou looked at Daoist Duobao in confusion and asked, “Senior Brother, why should we fight Saints?”
“Well…”
Daoist Duobao was speechless.
Zhao Gongming smiled and said, “Then, Changgeng, you invited all of us to gather here and even made it so mysterious. Who are you going to deal with?”
Li Changshou felt a little less confident. He said softly, “The Western Sect’s Void Bodhi… Ah.”
The hole fell silent again. Suddenly, she heard a chuckle beside her. It was Fairy Kong Xuan, who was amused by Li Changshou’s words.
Perfected Taiyi folded his sleeves and muttered, “I feel that you are mocking me.”
“This Void Bodhi is not simple.” Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and said, “Everyone, don’t be careless. Uncle-Master Taiqing has already attacked. This fellow is hiding some powerful mystical abilities.”
Yun Xiao said gently, “The goshawk has tried his best to catch the rabbit. If we don’t expose our whereabouts and capture the disciples of the Western Sect, we will indeed need the cooperation of many experts.”
“That’s right,” Yun Zhongzi said. “We have to be careful… Changgeng, what did the Void Bodhi do to have to be dealt with like this?”
Li Changshou pondered about it and said,
“There’s no need to go into details about the crimes. There’s no way I can fit them all. They needed to attack him urgently because he had interfered with a huge matter that would have a profound effect on the Dao Sect. Recently, he has been trying to make Chan School and the Heavenly Courts go against each other, so that Chan School and the Western Sect can completely join forces… This matter is a little inappropriate.”
Yun Zhongzi nodded in understanding. The immortals of Jie School also revealed solemn expressions.
If Chan School and the Western Sect completely joined forces, it would naturally be troublesome for Jie School. They could not slack off at all.
Perfected Taiyi chuckled and held back his words.
False charges: Sowing discord between the three sects and trying to mess up the Dao Sect.
The real crime was adding scenes without permission.
Li Changshou took out two more scrolls from his sleeve and smiled. “Let’s discuss a few more plans. Teacher’s mystical abilities are already watching him closely. We don’t have to be in a hurry.”
In a mystic realm in the South Ocean, the old Daoist priest was meditating and cultivating. He subconsciously trembled twice as if he had sensed something.
…
Why is my mind uneasy?
The Void Bodhi opened his eyes and looked at the beautiful underwater scenery outside the cave. He could not help but frown.
The mystic realm was built on a large piece of coral and was near an island. It was an important place for the Western Sect to stay outside the spiritual mountain. It was mainly used for some ferocious beasts and demons to hide.
The Void Bodhi would be there because he was prepared to continue watching Yang Jian in the trichiliocosm.
If he could succeed and let Yang Jian go to the Heavenly Courts to cause trouble, Chan School and the Heavenly Courts would be in conflict and go against each other. He would have made a huge contribution and made up for his mistake in the Immortal Alliance.
Recently, Eldest Senior Brother suddenly appeared and suffered a huge loss when fighting the Water God. He was tainted by the fact that he had Kun Peng’s essence soul. That was really laughable.
Why do I have to fight the Water God head-on?
Do you really think you can plot against me?
The Void Bodhi did not think that he was much smarter than Ksitigarbha. After suffering a huge loss, he immediately changed his mind and avoided the Water God.
Now, he had schemed against a third-generation disciple of the Dao Sect. At most, he would only attract Perfected Yu Ding’s pursuit. He would do it secretly and there would not be any major problems.
The scenery today was not bad.
The Void Bodhi walked out of the Cave Abode that he was hiding in and walked in the seawater as if it was flat ground. He walked with his hands behind his back and played with the fish.
The longer he cultivated, the more arduous it would be.
Therefore, the Void Bodhi usually paid attention to Taoism and cultivated some hobbies. At that moment, the rays of the sun shone into the water, and the light blue seawater and fish played among the corals…
Hence, he became excited and recited, “The sun is bright and beautiful. There are red coral and green grass.”
Then, he felt that it was wonderful. He stroked his beard and chuckled. His body headed towards the sea and went out to take a breather.
As he strolled along the blue water, blue sky, and white sand beach, the Void Bodhi’s thoughts were a little complicated.
The internal strife in the sect had been suppressed recently. Previously, it had already reached the stage of asking the two teachers to appoint the Eldest Senior Brother. Now, with the return of Maitreya, there was temporarily no more chaos.
The Void Bodhi actually did not want to vie for these. However, he was in the sect and some things could not be avoided.
For example, Ksitigarbha was too popular and liked by his teacher. He was about to become the Eldest Senior Brother of the Western Sect…
Fortunately, the Water God, Lord Taibai Jinxing, had brilliant methods back then. He said to the outside world that Ksitigarbha was like his brother.
He made full use of his teacher’s suspicion and gave his fellow disciples an excuse to cause trouble.
Later on, Ksitigarbha tried his best in front of the Reincarnation Pagoda. Actually, he was a little sad. At that time, he had also thought about whether he should help him. In the end, he decided to remain silent.
Helping him was actually not beneficial.
As long as the Western Sect had two teachers, they would not lose anything. The difference was in their reputation and prestige.
Now, the prestige of the Western Sect had fallen greatly. They did not dare to say anything to Lord Taibai Jinxing who had destroyed the sect. Their faces were damaged, and they were still safe.
“Ah…”
What is the direction of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation? How much will it affect them?
The Void Bodhi looked at the sea and his Dao heart rippled slightly.
Thinking back to the past, when he had just entered the spiritual mountain, he had respect for his two teachers and had a longing for the dream of immortality.
Later on, when he really entered immortality, his mentality changed slightly.
He still remembered that in the beginning, he had indeed wanted the Western Sect to prosper and help the two teachers…
Since when did I find such thoughts ridiculous?
What is so-called prosperity? Is it flourishing?
“Ah.”
The Void Bodhi sighed again, completely unaware of the situation behind him.
A crack silently appeared in the universe. At the feet of the Void Bodhi, two ghostly figures were quietly approaching. They touched a thousand feet around the Void Bodhi, and the Yin and Yang Qi around them quietly retreated.
At that moment, the Void Bodhi felt a faint fluctuation behind him. He turned around and was shocked when he saw the Cosmic rift behind him.
However, he did not have time to react…
Pfft!
With a soft sound, the Void Bodhi looked down at his chest in shock. A sword had pierced through it, and the blade of the sword was pressed against the neck of his essence soul.
Another pure essence soul attack erupted. At that moment, the Void Bodhi could not fight at all. It could only allow its essence soul to be knocked unconscious by the powerful but unfamiliar essence soul power!
At that moment, two figures appeared behind the Void Bodhi. Their faces could not be seen clearly. One of them held a sword and pierced through the Void Bodhi’s Dao Body, while the other pointed the sword at the Void Bodhi’s back.
At the same time, they raised their legs and kicked the Void Bodhi into the Cosmic rift. Their figures flashed into the rift and disappeared at the same time.
Along with that, the concealment array that was 50 kilometers away silently dissipated.
After about two breaths, a pair of huge eyes seemed to have appeared in the sky, staring at the beach.
The two Saints’ spiritual senses instantly scanned a radius of 50,000 kilometers. The two old Daoists in the depths of the spiritual mountain frowned.
They broke through the obstruction of the tribulation and immediately used the power of the Heavenly Dao to deduce the whereabouts of the Void Bodhi. However, after deducing for a while, their brows furrowed deeper.
It was not that they had discovered a powerful enemy that they could not deal with, or that their deduction was blocked, but…
The Heavenly Dao did not respond this time.
