Chapter 723 - Heavenly Change

Chapter 723: Heavenly Change

In the sky, the wind and clouds stopped. The world was silent.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning stood with his hands behind his back. There was no joy or sadness on his face, nor was there any treasure. His body seemed to have condensed from clouds, and he merged with the universe.

He was the Heavenly Dao Saint, one of the Three Pure Ones formed by Pangu’s essence soul. He held the Pangu Banner and the jade ruyi. He was an expert among the Six Saints of the Primordial World whose cultivation level was only inferior to the Grand Pure One.

At that moment, the expert who should have suppressed the entire situation when he first appeared frowned and looked ten thousand feet away.

There was fog there. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning actually…

He felt a little threatened.

Buzz…

The fog was suddenly blown away by a force, and a slender figure appeared inside.

Li Changshou’s alias was Li Changgeng.

At that moment, Li Changshou was still dressed in a long robe. He did not carry any weapons in his hand. A weight slowly appeared behind him. Brother Steel’s position was still in the air.

He was also staring at the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning and exchanging glances with his Second Uncle-Master.

At that moment, Li Changshou completely understood Second Aunt-Master.

Second Uncle-Master did not want to put the treasure on him. That meant that he did not trust him enough.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning could sense Li Changshou’s determination.

Rebellion!

“There’s no need to hold back.”

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning said softly and closed his eyes to wait. The Saint’s Dao runes quickly gathered around him.

Li Changshou took a deep breath and closed his eyes. The image of a giant appeared behind him.

That was the realm after the Eight-Nine Arcane Art. It was a mystical ability that the Lady of Earth had never imagined.

Li Changshou had used the Pseudo Essence Soul Primordial Violet Qi to steal the essence of the world and absorb the essence of the world into himself. That was why he had such a mystical ability.

Similarly, he could not teach it to other living beings.

“Trump card: visualization of the Pangu True Body!”

As soon as that phantom appeared, the Sun dimmed. The universe seemed to have a black hole that could devour everything. The world and the Great Dao seemed to be in danger.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning smiled and muttered, “Not bad.” Then, he shook his head slightly.

“It’s not enough.”

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning said, “That’s all. You can’t hurt me.”

Li Changshou smiled calmly. He raised his right hand and pointed his sword at the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning from afar. The giant phantom behind him held a huge ax!

Second Uncle-Master had given him a few moves to prove his strength and whether he was qualified to rebel.

Therefore, he only had one chance.

Only by hurting Second Uncle-Master with one move could he change his mind.

Second Uncle-Master and Guang Chengzi were too smart.

After Guang Chengzi was “hinted” by his Grandmaster, he was already prepared to sacrifice himself. He wanted Chan School to survive between the Heavenly Dao and the living beings, indicating that Chan School should follow the Heavenly Dao.

Guang Chengzi’s anger and rebuke were just for the Heavenly Dao to hear. It could be considered a sign of allegiance to the Heavenly Dao.

However, now, if the living beings could not gather all their strength, he only had a 70% chance of winning. The possibility of the Dao Ancestor turning the tables at the last step was too high.

The last step had yet to arrive. The time was not ripe. He was not prepared. What should have happened was far from happening.

At that moment, it was only the third last step of Li Changshou’s plan.

There were only three paths in front of Li Changshou— He could either make Second Uncle-Master change his mind at that moment, or make him give up on the Heavenly Dao.

He could also kill Second Uncle-Master and snatched the Pangu Banner before the final battle with the Dao Ancestor!

There was no other way.

Sensing that the Chaos Bell had already left the five continents, Li Changshou’s worries lessened.

Although he could let the Little Qiong Peak leave in advance, the Little Qiong Peak was also a “hostage” that he had placed in the Heavenly Courts. If he moved, he would implicate the entire situation.

It’s easier said than done. My life is not in the hands of the heavens. Actually, it’s just a slogan that makes one’s blood boil. It’s not useful.

The true rebellion required long-term planning and continuous plotting to find the flaws of the heavens!

He still had to take a path that no one had taken before. He had to have a trump card that could make the heavens afraid and the heavens helpless!

He also had to unite all living beings and fight for all trustworthy allies.

Therefore, in this moment, this place, and this situation!

He had to use some trump cards to injure Second Uncle-Master, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning, and the second strongest Saint in the world!

Buzz!

Wisps of purple light appeared on Li Changshou’s wrist. In the blink of an eye, they condensed into shining seals.

Almost instantly, a thin membrane of light appeared behind Li Changshou, and hundreds of vortexes appeared.

The moment the vortex formed, the spiritual energy in a radius of 50,000 kilometers was rapidly drawn towards that place and merged into Li Changshou’s Dao Body!

It was almost the same as when he used the 100 times spiritual energy cannon!

However, Li Changshou directly absorbed the boundless spiritual energy into his body!

At that moment, dazzling light condensed on Li Changshou’s fingertips. Countless cracks appeared in the universe in front of him, and they quickly collapsed like mirrors.

“Trump card: 100 times spiritual energy.”

Splash!

Li Changshou pointed gently and a beam of spiritual energy that had been compressed to the extreme shot towards the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning.

The sky was like a huge beast with its mouth wide open, like an inverted abyss!

That was not the end.

The shadow behind Li Changshou slashed at the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning. An arc of light shot into the “abyss” and followed the beam of light!

The world trembled.

The starlight in the sky flickered. The crack swallowed the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning’s sacred body. The world was filled with the intense light that erupted from the crack!

Boundless spiritual energy rippled and turned into a violent wind that blew towards various parts of the South Continent.

Below, the disciples of the Chan and Jie School looked at the strange scene nervously.

Among them, only the Old Man of the South Pole, Daoist Duobao, Fairy Yun Xiao, and the other experts could barely understand Li Changshou’s attack.

It was also because he could barely understand that he was extremely shocked.

This attack was no weaker than a Saint’s technique!

He could even severely injure the Sixth Saint on that day!

In other words, on the day that he killed the Saint with Zhao Gongming, Li Changshou was still hiding his strength and did not reveal all his strength. He only wanted to help Zhao Gongming.

Time seemed to have been pressed down by someone. The powerful light quickly disappeared.

The “abyss” closed, and the shattered universe was quickly repaired by the power of the Heavenly Dao.

As the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning swiped his hand, the sky returned to blue in the blink of an eye.

It was a clear blue.

The disciples of the Saints held their breaths and focused. Although there were only two figures in the sky, they did not know where to look.

Li Changshou stood quietly in the air. His hands were naturally lowered, and his aura was a little unstable.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning still stood with his hands behind his back. His Daoist robe was not crumpled but the Saint’s Dao runes were much weaker than before.

Ta!

A drop of blood fell from the sky and formed layers of ripples in the air. It turned into wisps of pure spiritual energy and dissipated in the world.

Drops of Saint’s blood slowly slid down the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning’s left arm and evaporated.

“Second Uncle-Master.” Li Changshou’s calm voice spread across the world. However, he only asked simply, “Is that possible?”

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning closed his eyes and sighed slowly. “Let me think carefully.”

Li Changshou frowned slightly.

Did he not prove enough? Did he not show enough trump cards?

Forget it.

“Disciple, wait for Second Uncle-Master’s good news.”

Li Changshou bowed and landed from the sky.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning remained standing in the air. He closed his eyes and did not say a word. He was like a clay statue.

Li Changshou landed. The disciples of the two sects reacted differently.

The immortals of Jie School were extremely happy. They could not wait to rush forward and cheer.

After all, Second Uncle-Master had always been their “Dao heart shadow”. To the few eldest disciples, it could be considered a “childhood shadow”.

The immortals of Chan School were silent. They looked at Li Changshou with a complicated gaze and a hint of respect.

Li Changshou looked at Yun Xiao, who was holding the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice, and said warmly, “Watch Guang Chengzi for now.”

“Yes.” Yun Xiao nodded gently. Her eyes were bright, and the spiritual energy beside her hand was rich.

Following that, the world fell silent again. Everyone was waiting for the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning to speak.

After a while.

Li Changshou continued, “Grandmaster Jiang, convict Daji first.”

Daji trembled slightly and lowered her head in silence.

Jiang Shang, who was sitting in the corner of the platform with the group of mortals, hurriedly jumped up. His beautiful hair and white beard fluttered. He cupped his hands and bowed to Li Changshou. He quickly sat back on his original chair.

As soon as he sat down, he picked up the Hall-Shocking Wood but did not dare to land it casually.

Jiang Shang looked up and asked, “Lord Taibai Jinxing… what crime is she guilty of?”

“You can use the identity of a minister of Zhou to convict her,” Li Changshou said. “It’s up to you to decide.”

“Well…”

Jiang Shang frowned and stared at Daji’s enchanting figure, but he did not have any thoughts.

It’s not like I haven’t seen women before.

After a long time, Jiang Shang sighed and said, “Since ancient times, the victor has always been the king. Now, the Shang Nation has been defeated by the Zhou Nation. Regardless of the process, this is the outcome. I am a minister of Zhou. Under the orders of the Great King, I have convicted the concubines of the previous King of Shang. Today, I will kill Daji. Daji, are you convinced?”

Qiong Xiao said on the cloud, “Is that considered a sin?”

Yun Xiao looked at her sister and Qiong Xiao immediately shut her mouth. She was depressed.

Li Changshou looked at Qiong Xiao and said slowly, “Some will win, some will lose. There’s no crime, this is the kindest treatment Daji can have.”

Then, he looked at Daji and said, “Break your body and meet your Great King on the God-Conferment Platform.”

Daji sighed and said, “Thank you for your help, Grand Tutor. Thank you for your love, Lord Taibai Jinxing.”

Li Changshou continued, “However, Daji’s situation is a little special… Where’s the God Striking Whip?”

Golden light flickered in the sky. The golden pillar of light descended from the sky and condensed into a golden wooden whip in Li Changshou’s palm.

The Heavenly Dao Dharma artifact, the God Striking Whip.

The God Striking Whip first pointed at Daji. Daji’s body collapsed to the ground. Two beams of light flew out from her forehead and turned into two beautiful figures.

The phantom was a soul. It was no different from Su Daji’s face. It was beautiful and alluring.

The other figure was naturally the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. At that moment, she was dragging nine snow-white fox tails. She had another appearance that was drop-dead gorgeous.

Li Changshou said, “Which one of you is Queen Daji?”

“It’s me.” The Nine-Tailed Fox sighed softly. She did not dare to look up at Li Changshou and knelt on the ground. “She is just the original soul of Su Daji, who was detained by me. She has also died because of me. Lord Taibai Jinxing, please allow her to reincarnate. All the blame is on me.”

Li Changshou nodded slowly and said, “In that case…”

“Hold on!”

A loud shout came from the immortals of Chan School. Daoist Wen Shu took half a step forward and stared at the nine-tailed demon fox.

Wen Shu said firmly, “Lord Taibai Jinxing, aren’t you being too biased? It’s a demon! How can a demoness possess a mortal woman and sneak into the Shang Palace to become the beloved concubine of the Human Emperor? Why should I only punish my Eldest Senior Brother and speak to such a demoness nicely!?!”

Li Changshou said, “She’s about to die now. Her soul has entered the God Conferment Platform. Is there anything wrong with this punishment?”

Another immortal of Chan School said, “Such a demon should have his soul destroyed. How can he be conferred the title of righteous god of the Heavenly Courts!?!”

“Fellow Daoist.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Are you teaching me how to become a god?”

The immortal from Chan School immediately shut up.

The Old Man of the South Pole smiled and said, “Junior Brother Changgeng, do you think that’s okay? Why don’t you exonerate Guang Chengzi and the woman from the Fox Clan? The woman from the Fox Clan has entered the God-Conferment Platform with her body. Junior Brother Guang Chengzi will be punished when he returns to the Jade Void Palace.”

“There is no exchange in the Heavenly rules. Rules are rules.”

Li Changshou said calmly, “Daji will definitely die today, and Guang Chengzi’s cultivation level will definitely be crippled. At this moment, I’m waiting for Second Uncle-Master to make a decision to decide if Guang Chengzi wants to reincarnate.”

The Old Man of the South Pole sighed and said, “Junior Brother Changgeng…”

“I’m Taibai Jinxing.”

“Lord Taibai Jinxing,” the Old Man of the South Pole persuaded earnestly. “We know very well why this Daji entered the mortal world. However, it’s not appropriate to say this matter and ruin that Lord’s reputation.

Junior Brother Guang Chengzi had his reasons for doing things. Daji also has her reasons for doing things. Although the two of them are not related, they had bumped into each other.

Why don’t we just let it go? We can turn the matter into a small matter. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the world can still be safe?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Although he had fully considered this situation previously, he could not help but be speechless when this scene happened.

That was one of the three core problems of the rebellion.

The three problems were arranged according to the difficulty level.

Firstly, the Dao Ancestor Heavenly Dao would not sit and wait for death. On the contrary, the chessboard was completely controlled by them.

Secondly, the Dao Ancestor’s Heavenly Dao had almost endless power and could use the origin power of the world.

Thirdly, living beings could not unite.

That was understandable.

The immortals of the two sects here were already considered a group of people who had a deeper understanding of the Great Dao in the world. Only a small number of them understood the pressure the Heavenly Dao had on living beings.

The others had long tacitly agreed that the Heavenly Dao was in charge of everything. They felt that there was nothing wrong with that.

Li Changshou said, “Old Man of the South Pole, you don’t have to persuade me. Today, I should convict you.”

The immortals of Chan School were silent.

The God Striking Whip in Li Changshou’s hand slid down. Su Daji’s body shattered into spiritual energy. Su Daji’s mortal soul was sucked away out of thin air and naturally sent to the Netherworld for reincarnation.

The Nine-Tailed Fox was restrained by the immortal rope again and knelt in the middle of the platform.

Jiang Shang understood and said firmly, “Daji, do you have anything to say?”

“I do have something to say.”

The Nine-Tailed Fox looked up at Jiang Shang and smiled gently.

“Thank you, Daoist Priest. I was ignorant previously and caused you trouble. When I met the King, Daji’s heart was filled with sorrow. She had no intention to serve ordinary people. Every night, she would only make him faint. However, a few months later, for some reason, all I could think about was him. I saw him frowning because of the fate of the Shang Dynasty and chatting with those old people. I saw that he could not sleep well the entire night. When I regained my senses, I realized that I had fallen in love. Previously, I had only thought about him because his charming technique had failed back then. I was dissatisfied and I wanted to regain my dignity. Now, I know that it would be the greatest blessing if I can rely on those who know me. In the end, I could only use Daji’s body to accompany him… I don’t know how to make him happy. I don’t know how to make him not worry. I’m just a selected ordinary demon. I can only watch him gradually age. I’m actually quite grateful for this destiny. If I can go to the God-Conferment Platform, can you help me create Daji’s body? I don’t want him to know that I’m a demon fox. I don’t want him to think that I’m close to him to harm his life. Thank you, Daoist Priest. Thank you, Lord Taibai Jinxing.”

“Yes.”

Jiang Shang thought that it was strange that the Nine-Tailed Fox would call him Daoist Priest. However, he did not care about such details. He picked up the wooden sign beside him and immediately wanted to throw it out.

She was also a pitiful person with a tragic life.

Another curse sounded from the side.

“Daji cannot enter the God-Conferment Platform! How can this vixen enter the God-Conferment Platform and live forever!?!”

The immortals released their immortal senses and saw two young men rushing out from the immortals of Chan School. One of them had sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, and a square face. Both of them looked angry.

They were Yin Hong and Yin Jiang, the sons of Di Xin and Queen Jiang, who had been taken away by Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi previously!

Yin Hong cursed, “Daji harmed my mother and my Shang Nation. How can she become a god!?! Why should I go to the Heavenly Courts to be an immortal!?! Taibai Jinxing, your position is not right. You have a selfish heart. It’s difficult for you to convince everyone!”

“That’s right. Daji has sinned deeply. Her soul should be destroyed!”

Li Changshou frowned. Before he could say anything, an old man jumped out from the immortals of Jie School. It was Lu Yue.

Lu Yue cursed, “These two brats are still wet behind the ears. How dare they talk about justice here!?!”

Chi Jingzi of Chan School could not help but stand up and say to Lu Yue, “If anyone here can seek revenge on Daji, it will naturally be my disciple and Disciple-Nephew. Their mother was killed by Daji. They should have a chance to speak.”

Fairy Yun Xiao said gently, “The root of the royal family’s conflict is Di Xin. Daji can’t make the decision. Now that Di Xin is dead, even if the two princes have difficulties, they should not blame others. They should go to the God-Conferment Platform and ask Di Xin why.”

“That’s right.” Daoist Duobao sighed and said, “Yin Hong, Yin Jiang, your father is the one who killed your mother. This is considered a tragedy of the mortal royal family. It has nothing to do with others. Although the Nine-Tailed Fox is deeply involved, to put it bluntly, it’s just an excuse your father made to bear the infamy for your father.”

Yin Hong said, “Before Daji entered the palace, my father’s personality changed drastically!”

“She’s the one who bewitched our father!”

“Enough!”

A soft voice sounded from Chaoge City. Golden light flickered, and the female immortal in armor and carrying a huge sword flew over. It was Youqin Xuanya.

“Yin Hong, Yin Jiao, retreat. Don’t smear your father’s name again.”

Yin Hong and Yin Jiao were about to retort, but when they saw the figure and appearance of the person, he could not help but be stunned. They recalled the image hanging in the ancestral temple.

“Ancestor? Ancestor…”

“Why don’t you save our father and mother!?!”

“As an immortal god of the Heavenly Courts, I cannot interfere with mortal matters.”

Youqin Xuanya remained calm in the face of the countless mystical abilities.

“It’s difficult to distinguish between right and wrong in an emperor’s family matters. The conflict in the harem began from outsiders. The death of Queen Jiang does not have a deep connection with Daji. Your mother’s death was because your son was implicated in the battle with the Jiang Family. Today, if you want to kill Daji, I can naturally pray to Lord Taibai Jinxing. However, the Heavenly Courts had decided to seal the Heavenly Courts. They did not allow anyone to interfere. Aren’t you going to apologize to the Lord!?! Do you know that if Lord Taibai Jinxing did not save them back then, the Shang Nation’s lineage would have been severed! The two of you would not have been born!”

Yin Hong and Yin Jiao’s eyes were red. They looked at Youqin Xuanya’s stern face and looked up at Li Changshou.

Li Changshou waved his hand and said, “Xuanya, bring Yin Hong and Yin Jiao to Chaoge City to wait. There’s no need to participate in what happens next.”

“General’s orders.”

Youqin Xuanya cupped her hands and bowed. She looked at Yin Hong and Yin Jiao and chided, “Leave with me.”

Yin Hong and Yin Jiao subconsciously looked at Chi Jingzi. The latter frowned and said, “It’s fine to go temporarily.”

“Master…”

“But this! Ah!”

The two youths lowered their heads and sighed. Then, they rode a cloud towards Youqin Xuanya and were brought back to Chaoge City by Youqin Xuanya.

There was silence near the platform for a while. Only when Youqin Xuanya’s figure disappeared near Zhai Xing Hall did Li Changshou sigh softly and push the God Striking Whip in his hand towards Jiang Shang.

“If you use this item to execute the punishment, you can naturally let Daji’s soul go to the God-Conferment Platform. She and Di Xin are husband and wife. It’s not a bad ending for them to reunite. When I become a god, I can just give you an idle Deity Position.”

Jiang Shang stood up, confused. He did not know why the senior god would say that to him. He held the God Striking Whip in his hand.

Jiang Shang sat down and said to Daji, “Today, I have convicted Daji. I will kill her and send her soul to the God-Conferment Platform!”

Then, he stood up and quickly walked to Daji’s side with the God Striking Whip in both hands. He held the handle of the God Striking Whip in his right hand and raised it high.

Daji closed her eyes tightly. A few drops of tears fell, and the corners of her mouth were filled with smiles.

The wooden whip in Jiang Shang’s hand shone with divine light. He was about to smash Daji’s head!

“Wait, I have something to say.”

Something unexpected happened again.

Golden light flickered in the west. The auspicious clouds appeared everywhere, and two figures slowly walked over.

The Western Sect’s Eldest Senior Brother, Maitreya.

Li Changshou’s eyes surged and landed on Maitreya.

Maitreya subconsciously took half a step back and stuck to the back of the Saint. He smiled warmly at Li Changshou.

Maitreya smiled and said, “How have you been, Lord Taibai Jinxing?”

Li Changshou did not attack directly. He said calmly, “Thanks to you, Fellow Daoist, I’ve caused a lot of trouble.”

Maitreya said, “I’m honored to be able to cause you some trouble.”

Li Changshou said, “If I can spare the energy to kill you today, I will definitely not leave any corpse for you.”

“Yes.” Maitreya cupped his hands and smiled. “Previously, I saved the living beings of the three Major Chiliocosm. From that, I washed away the sins of the Heavenly Dao and obtained the recognition of the Heavenly Dao. Now, Lord Taibai Jinxing wants to punish me. I’m afraid I can’t.”

What a casual excuse.

It was indeed the Heavenly Dao Eagle Dog that had replaced him.

“I want to kill you purely because of personal grudges,” Li Changshou said calmly. “Just like Randeng.”

Maitreya nodded and stepped out from behind Jie Yin.

“Let’s not talk about our personal grudges for now. Daji cannot enter the God roll. The God roll should be based on luck and background. Only by obtaining the approval of the Heavenly Dao could one become a legitimate god of the Heavenly Courts and enter the Heavenly Dao sequence. Could it be that you think that the Heavenly Courts is already a place where you can have a say?”

Li Changshou said calmly, “The Heavenly Courts focuses on character before capabilities when selecting immortals. Their second ability is their luck.”

“Yes?”

Maitreya smiled and said, “Then why do I feel that the most important thing for the immortals of the Heavenly Courts is his previous identity? Can the Lord of Heaven really represent the Heavenly Dao now? Could it be that you think that we don’t know that you have fallen out with the Heavenly Dao? Why don’t we talk about everything openly here today? In terms of theory, Lord Taibai Jinxing, you have already lost the support of the Heavenly Dao. Why do you have to be like this?”

Li Changshou closed his eyes and sighed softly. “It seems that you guys have made thorough preparations since you dared to appear.”

Maitreya said, “I don’t dare to be fully prepared. I only received the Heavenly Dao’s permission to come and ask you to make a decision. Lord Taibai Jinxing, please kill Daji and destroy her soul. Otherwise, don’t blame us for making a move and correct this matter for you!”

Daoist Duobao frowned and said, “Just you?”

“Yes.”

Maitreya’s smile widened. “Fellow Daoist Duobao, why don’t you think about why your master hasn’t appeared yet?”

Daoist Duobao’s expression changed as he glared at Maitreya.

At this moment!

A cross-shaped light flashed in the sky!

Daoist Duobao flicked his sleeve. The light instantly landed and floated a thousand feet in the sky.

A broken sword!

The immortals of Jie School looked up and their expressions changed!

The Qingping Sword!

The broken Qingping Sword!

“Master, Master!”

Qiong Xiao could not help but shout, her voice trembling.

At that moment, a wisp of Dao runes circulated. A crack appeared on the heads of the immortals of Jie School. A figure fell from within, but he barely stood up in midair.

His entire body was bathed in blood, and his long hair was stained with blood. His aura was already very weak. His left shoulder was completely shattered, and his entire body was covered in wounds. The shadows of four swords circled around him, and the array formation under his feet had been pierced.

The Grandmaster of Heaven…

“Master!”

“Master, what’s wrong!?!”

Dozens of streams of light flashed. The immortals of Jie School immediately surrounded the Grandmaster of Heaven.

Daoist Duobao, Yun Xiao, and the other eldest disciples looked around warily. The Goddess of Turtle Spirit and Qiong Xiao supported the Grandmaster of Heaven.

“Master, what’s wrong?”

“I’m fine. I won’t die. Ahem, ahem!”

The Grandmaster of Heaven immediately calmed his aura, but his injuries were too severe. He could not stand up immediately.

He looked at Li Changshou, who was staring at him, and grinned at him.

“Teacher tricked me. I’m dragging you down, Changgeng.”

“Uncle-Master, rest well.” Li Changshou shook his head and said warmly, “With the restrictions of the Primordial Violet Qi and the Saint’s merit, Uncle-Master, you can’t unleash much of your strength. You don’t have to blame yourself. However, it seems that the Dao Ancestor has already attacked first.”

Li Changshou looked up at the sky and said coldly, “Fellow Daoist, why don’t you appear?”

A chuckle sounded from the sky. Golden light surged and condensed into a figure.

The person was dressed in a golden kasaya and had long hair that hung down. His face was peaceful and his eyes flickered with light. He held the Wonderful Seven Treasures Tree in his hand and sat on a seven-colored auspicious cloud.

“Zhun Ti?!”

“Why is the Sixth Saint still alive?”

The immortals of Jie School and Chan School were stunned, but Li Changshou’s expression remained the same.

“Be careful.” The Grandmaster of Heaven sighed and said, “He’s just a shell reconstructed by the Heavenly Dao. Inside is the will of the Heavenly Dao. He can be considered Teacher’s clone. His strength is above mine.”

Zhun Ti chuckled and looked down at Li Changshou.

“Fellow Daoist, can the third array formation begin?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning sighed softly. His figure flickered from the sky and landed in front of the immortals of Chan School.

“Guang Chengzi is blessed and upright. He should not have been sent into reincarnation.”

Li Changshou nodded and bowed to the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning.

“Fellow Daoist, you can’t save Guang Chengzi.”

“Hahaha! Hahaha!”

Maitreya suddenly raised his head and laughed maniacally.

At that moment, the pressure of the Dao Saints echoed in the world. Everything was silent, and so was the world. The laughter was extremely ear-piercing.

“Li Changgeng! I didn’t expect this to happen to you one day! Are you even worthy of going against the Heavenly Dao!?! Hahaha! Hahaha!”

As he had submitted to the Heavenly Dao, Maitreya was indeed confident of victory.

At that moment, the Dao Ancestor’s clone, Zhun Ti, appeared. He could attack living beings at will. It was considered a trump card of the Dao Ancestor.

Zhun Ti’s appearance was just to disgust Li Changshou. The figure should have been the gray-robed old Daoist priest, who had the strength of a Saint.

The Grandmaster of Heaven had been plotted against. He should have been schemed by the Heavenly Dao when he rushed here and was crippled by the Dao Ancestor.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning took the opportunity to make a choice and stood on the Heavenly Dao’s side.

The Saint who received him owed him endless merit. He had a deep grudge against Li Changshou, so he was naturally on the Heavenly Dao’s side.

The Goddess was not in the trap. Only the strongest Saint in the world stood behind Li Changshou. At that moment, he had yet to appear.

No matter how Maitreya looked at it, he had a chance of winning.

No matter what he thought, Li Changshou was already at the end of his rope.

That was the first problem of the three major problems of the Anti-Heaven rebellion—the Dao Ancestor could not sit still.

The Dao Ancestor had countless methods to form a team. At that moment, he even announced that the game had ended before it even began.

The Grandmaster of Heaven was seriously injured. The Immortal Vanquishing Sword Array was broken, and the living beings lost their main pillar.

More importantly, the immortals of Jie School did not retreat because the Grandmaster of Heaven was seriously injured.

On the contrary, their eyes were filled with anger. They did not even need to be driven by the tribulation luck to be enraged!

Those of Jie School had already been enraged.

That was the Dao Ancestor’s method. He did not give Li Changshou any chance to achieve multiple goals in one step!

“Brother-in-law!”

Qiong Xiao held the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors and stood up. She gritted her teeth and cursed, “Let’s fight it out with them!”

Yun Xiao silently took out the jade statue and quietly watched Li Changshou’s back. Her eyes were filled with peace.

Daoist Duobao sighed softly. “Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao, Jie School is indeed not liked by the Heavenly Dao.”

However, Duobao clenched his left fist and crushed a jade token. The image of a huge drum appeared behind him and he roared, “Where are the immortals of Jie School!?! Where are the immortals of Jie School!?! Master is injured. Come to the South Continent quickly! The heavens want to destroy Jie School. Today, we should seize a chance of survival for ourselves! Jie School is going against the heavens!”

Lu Yue pointed at the sky and cursed, “To hell with the Heavenly Dao!”

“If you hurt my master, you can only fight to the death!”

The immortals of Jie School agreed. Countless streams of light appeared in the world!

Li Changshou could not bear it and slowly closed his eyes.

Suddenly!

His figure darted out horizontally. The universe produced layers of ripples. The shadow of the pagoda floated on his shoulder. It was like an arrow that had left the bow, like a comet in the sky.

The universe shattered, and the Dao laws trembled!

The afterimage and the Cosmic Fragment shattered at the same time. A void rift shot towards Maitreya!

Jie Yin frowned slightly. He formed a seal with his left hand and pressed down on Li Changshou’s figure.

However!

Li Changshou’s figure flickered strangely a few times and turned into dozens of phantoms. At the same time, he pounced at Jie Yin and Maitreya.

Maitreya subconsciously took half a step back and suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He had already been grabbed by a huge hand.

In the next moment, Maitreya felt the world spin and his vision turned black. When he regained his senses, he had already appeared in the sky. The surrounding universe suppressed him as a fist rapidly expanded in his vision!

“Li!”

Bang…

A blood lotus bloomed in the sky.

Li Changshou held the collar of Maitreya’s corpse with his left hand and looked at the shattered essence soul and shell in front of him. He spat out a mouthful of True Samadhi Flames that engulfed Maitreya’s corpse.

He scattered the ashes.

Then, Li Changshou looked at Jie Yin and sneered.

“It’s a little difficult for me to kill Saints, but it’s naturally fine to kill your disciples. Which Saint dares to kill the immortals of Jie School today? I, Li Changshou, will definitely settle things with you in the future.”

“Fellow Daoist,” Zhun Ti said, “Why do you have to struggle so uselessly?”

Li Changshou said, “Fellow Daoist, go down directly. The effect is really not bad.”

“Ah.”

Zhun Ti sighed softly. “Your teacher is already here. He should be fighting with me. Why don’t you wait for the outcome? That way, you can leave peacefully.”

After saying that, Zhun Ti’s figure slowly dissipated. Wisps of golden light shot towards the Nine Heavens.

Two streams of light flew out of Li Changshou’s sleeve and went above the Nine Heavens.

It was the Cosmic Ruler and the Floating Flame Flag!

In the Purple Cloud Palace, the three thousand Great Dao manifested thousands of figures.

An old Daoist priest sat on the Wind-Fire meditation cushion and slowly walked over. The Taiji Painting behind him slowly shone. The Cosmic Ruler and the Connate Five-Element Flag flew over together and slowly rotated around the old Daoist priest.

“Fellow Daoist.”

The Grand Pure One slowly opened his eyes and looked at the overlapping figures in front of him.

“What bullying little disciple… hurt me…”
