The human race, under the governance of the Heavenly Emperor, now possesses a unified concept. Though divided, they share the aspiration for a common ruler!
However, after the Heavenly Emperor, no one has yet possessed the qualification to be the common ruler of the human race!
In Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi gazed at his disciples and sighed. Their cultivation was somewhat lacking. Only Guangchengzi had just stepped into the Golden Immortal realm, while the other disciples were still at the Profound Immortal stage.
As for the registered disciples, Nanji Xianweng, who was already a Golden Immortal when he first joined Yuanshi's sect, had now entered the ranks of Grand Unity Golden Immortals. He was considered the fastest cultivator among Yuanshi's disciples!
Regarding the Deputy Sect Master Randeng, he was originally at the Great Unity Golden Immortal cultivation level. However, the Chan Sect had not yet developed, and there was no destiny for him to utilize. Thus, Randeng remained a Great Unity Golden Immortal and had not yet severed any corpses!
Seeing his teacher sigh, Huang Long instinctively flinched backward. He had no choice; Yuanshi disliked him the most!
"Now that the Earth Emperor is about to emerge, you should diligently assist your senior brother. You will all gain merit, and by then, becoming Golden Immortals should not be a problem!" Yuanshi stated directly!
The other disciples nodded in unison!
Yuanshi then waved his hand, and they filed out of the Jade Void Hall one by one!
Yuanshi counted on his fingers and frowned. He found himself unable to quite calculate the future development of the Earth Emperor. This was very strange!
After careful deduction, the situation remained the same. Yuanshi's heart grew uneasy. Could someone be plotting something? After all, when his elder brother was responsible for teaching the Heavenly Emperor, Minghe had emerged to cause trouble. Now, he himself could not calculate it, which certainly meant a Saint was interfering!
For the moment, Yuanshi had no leads. He sent a message to the outside!
Soon, an old man walked in. Upon seeing Yuanshi, he bowed and said, "Greetings, Saint!"
Yuanshi said, "Fellow Daoist, there may be unforeseen circumstances regarding the teacher of the Earth Emperor. I hope you can make a journey!"
That old man was Randeng, who had only managed to attend the last sermon and was thus considered one of the three thousand guests of Zixiao Palace!
He had originally wanted to be Yuanshi's disciple, but Yuanshi had not accepted him. Since they both attended the sermons in Zixiao Palace, he became the Deputy Sect Master of the Chan Sect. Although Randeng was the Deputy Sect Master, Yuanshi was more partial to his disciples. He, the Deputy Sect Master, had not gained any benefits whatsoever!
Now, for the teacher of the Earth Emperor, Yuanshi was still thinking of his disciples. Only when difficulties arose did he call for him. To be honest, Randeng was displeased, but who could he blame when the other was a Saint? He could only agree!
"I will follow behind them immediately!" Randeng said!
Yuanshi nodded. With this, there should be some assurance, as Randeng was a Great Unity Golden Immortal, considered a master in the Great Desolation. Even if he were outnumbered, he could return with a report. At that time, Yuanshi would see who dared to cross the path of his Three Pure Ones!
Meanwhile, in the West, Jieyin and Zhunti had also witnessed the Heavenly Emperor's path to enlightenment. Xuandu gained considerable merit and directly entered the Grand Unity realm. Such rapid cultivation, if it could happen in the West, would be ideal! After all, Jieyin and Zhunti had many disciples. Although some were already at the Golden Immortal realm, with the assistance of such merit, their Western Land would have hope for great prosperity!
"Brother, no, we cannot let the Three Pure Ones take all the benefits. The most important Three Sovereigns, the Three Pure Ones have claimed them, and we are only given the position of teacher to the Five Emperors. This is simply too much!" Zhunti said with indignation!
Jieyin sighed helplessly. With just the two of them, it was difficult to achieve much!
"This matter requires us to contact Minghe!" Jieyin said!
Zhunti's face immediately fell. He knew that he had just clashed with Minghe earlier!
"I will handle this matter," Jieyin said with a smile! He knew that Zhunti was too proud to swallow his pride, so he took the initiative. He left the West and headed towards the Sea of Blood. kanδん
In the Sea of Blood, Minghe had naturally seen him. He curled his lips. His good corpse was still suppressed in the Fire Cloud Cave. He needed to find a way to rescue Hei Lian Daoist!
Just then, Minghe looked outside and frowned. He had clashed with the West only two days ago. Why was Jieyin here?
"Fellow Daoist Minghe, may I have a word?" Jieyin asked indifferently above the Sea of Blood!
Minghe came out and said to Jieyin, "What are you doing here?" very impolitely!
Jieyin paid no mind and said, "The Three Pure Ones are currently powerful, but is this vast Great Desolation to be ruled only by the Three Pure Ones? Are you willing, Fellow Daoist? We are not willing!"
Minghe curled his lips. What could be done if he was unwilling? They were the Three Pure Ones, plus Li Er, who achieved enlightenment through a karmic merit clone, four Saints in total! And all of them possessed Innate Supreme Treasures. How could they fight? Even with Nuwa, they couldn't win!
It was precisely because of this that Minghe had bothered to ignore Zhunti. Otherwise, would Minghe not have considered forming an alliance?
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist, may I be invited inside to talk?" Jieyin said with a smile!
Minghe nodded. Regardless of anything else, Jieyin could be considered a Daoist, and as fellow Saints, he was much better than Zhunti. Thus, he invited Jieyin inside!
After settling down in the main hall, Jieyin said, "Fellow Daoist, we are not entirely without opportunity!"
Minghe looked at Jieyin with suspicion and asked, "Why do you say that, Fellow Daoist?" If there was truly an opportunity, Minghe would not mind allying with the two from the West. If it could make the Three Pure Ones suffer, then everything would be worthwhile!
Jieyin did not beat around the bush but said, "The Three Pure Ones are currently on very good terms because their interests have not yet been touched. Take Yuanshi and Tongtian, for example. You know their personalities. Yuanshi has always disdained those with fur and horns, while Tongtian, imitating the Dao Ancestor, created a scene of ten thousand immortals arriving. Among them are many with fur and horns, which Yuanshi would naturally look down upon!"
Minghe nodded. What Jieyin said was true, and he continued to listen!
Jieyin went on, "Moreover, whether it is Tongtian or Yuanshi, they are both quite protective and care deeply for their disciples!"
Minghe nodded again. There were contradictions among them, but this was not enough to make the Three Pure Ones quarrel amongst themselves!
Jieyin naturally knew this and continued, "Fellow Daoist, you should know Haotian, right? He is now the Heavenly Emperor!"
Minghe was speechless. Why did this drag in that brat Haotian!
Jieyin said with a smile, "Haotian needs manpower to govern the Heavenly Court. Earlier, Haotian recruited personnel, but there was no response. Hehe, what will Haotian do?"
Minghe pondered for a moment and said, "Borrow people from the Three Pure Ones? After all, Haotian is the Dao Ancestor's attendant in a way, and he can call the Three Pure Ones senior brothers!"
Jieyin nodded and said, "Exactly. But would the Three Pure Ones allow their disciples to work for Haotian, to be commanded by him? Obviously not. Then their conflict would arise. Tell me, what would happen if Haotian were to complain to the Dao Ancestor?"
