My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 546: Maitreya!

With a rustling sound, the inconspicuous mosquito on the paper effigy’s shoulder quietly dissipated.

Li Changshou’s heart skipped a beat. He sent a voice transmission to Daoist Wen Jing, who had yet to completely disperse her spiritual sense.

“In a while, don’t keep using the appearance of this mosquito. I’m not afraid of anything. In the future... I’ll add some disguises to my mystical abilities and make them look like Golden Cicada or grasshopper.”

In the secret Cave Abode at the foot of the spiritual mountain, Daoist Wen Jing, who was soaking in the pool, was stunned.

Lord Taibai Jinxing was really... a little speechless.

In the secret underground chamber of the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou spread out a piece of paper and quietly sorted out the other party’s plan.

The news that Daoist Wen Jing brought was similar to the news that Truth Listener had given. However, the perspective was slightly different.

In the heretic cultivator jade talisman that Perfected Yu Ding had accidentally intercepted, the heretic cultivator had obtained the news that he was going to destroy a few human kings and leaders of the South Continent, which was also the so-called “mortal emperors”.

The plan that Maitreya had revealed to Ksitigarbha was clearer and more detailed. His target was the son and grandson of the leader of the Shang Tribe.

The news that Daoist Wen Jing brought was an order that she had received.

The order was not to deal with the mortals personally. Instead, it was to wait at the south of the South Ocean. Regardless of whether the evil cultivators succeeded or not, they would annihilate all the evil cultivators who were “hired” at the other end of the “escape route”.

Three pieces of information, three different angles, but reasonable.

The Western Sect wanted to use the smallest investment to disrupt the Heavenly Courts.

Ever since the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Courts had insulted the two Saints of the Western Sect in the Purple Cloud Palace, the two factions had already stood against each other.

The Western Sect was interfering with the Heavenly Courts in exchange for a breather.

After some deliberation, Li Changshou felt that the Western Sect did not do too well in keeping secrets. There was no problem with the plan.

No matter what, he had to treat it seriously. It was fine even if he had to kill a chicken with a butcher’s knife.

At the same time, he had to pay more attention to the Sect Leader. Otherwise, the Sect Leader would be schemed against and become an inconspicuous wave.

The effects of ordinary Golden Immortals on the Great Tribulation were very weak. He had to protect them if he could.

If not for the Immortal Du Sect, he would not be his current self.

Li Changshou sighed softly and went to his master’s straw hut to offer three incense sticks. He turned around and entered the plan.

Attack the Western Sect!

At the same time, he could design a small plot so that Daoist Wen Jing could unintentionally make some contributions and strengthen her relationship with him. It would be best if there was a scene of pursuit.

That way, Daoist Wen Jing, who had passed the Saint’s test, would have more authority in the Western Sect.

Those are all additional questions. I should get all the points for the paper first.

Li Changshou had prepared for two months. He had contacted Kong Xuan in advance and asked Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Yu Ding to provide support.

Apart from that, it was the first time that Li Changshou had brought the nineteen senior experts of the human race, who had been following him for a long time, to another ambush spot.

The top mighty figures, Kong Xuan, and the two Perfected Ones of Chan School, nineteen of them had overall combat power that could not be underestimated.

There was also the Little Daoist Master of Ren School, who was about to go to the South Continent and bring the Taiji Painting, the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, and the Cosmic Ruler. He should...

Ahem, no flag. I’ll do my best.

No matter how stable he was, he had to separate the few grandsons and settle them. As long as the righteousness was not lost and the immortal contract was fine, the Shang Tribe’s rise to become a Shang Kingdom would not be too affected.

As usual, when the Taiji Painting brought the Pagoda Master and the Cosmic Ruler over, the flag also arrived.

When Li Changshou carried the Floating Flame Flag to look for Ling’e, she immediately reacted.

“Senior Brother, are you going out again?”

“Yes.” Li Changshou smiled warmly. “Don’t worry. I’m only going to the South Continent for about a month. Keep Teacher’s treasures close to you. Don’t leave me.”

“Oh,” Ling’e agreed with a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

When Li Changshou was on the mountain, the two of them did not stay together every day. After he told her to focus on cultivation and not deal with the matters of the Immortal Union, she worked hard to cultivate and enter seclusion every day.

Li Changshou raised his hand and rubbed Ling’e’s head. His figure disappeared, and faint ripples appeared in the universe. He had naturally used a brilliant escape technique.

“What else did you say? It’s dangerous outside. You told me not to go out for a stroll, but you ran out every day. You don’t even care about me. Hmph!”

Ling’e pursed her lips and put her hands behind her back. She pouted and felt depressed for a while. Soon, she hummed a lively tune and went to meditate under her favorite lake tree.

Li Changshou, who was using the paper effigy to see that scene, only chuckled and shifted his attention to the Heavenly Courts.

At that moment, he had to tell the Jade Emperor in advance and give him a sense of participation. He had to create an incarnation to work. After all, the Jade Emperor was almost free...

Ahem, the Heavenly Courts have been fine for a long time. The Jade Emperor can still sit steadily in the Lingxiao Hall. That is a rare perseverance and responsibility.

Indeed, after Li Changshou went to report to the Jade Emperor, General Wei Shenmo rushed to the Hall of Enlightenment to retrieve the token. He removed his armor and changed into a purple-red Daoist robe. He secretly headed to the South Continent to meet Li Changshou.

Although the Shang Tribe had developed rapidly and occupied a large area of land in the east of the South Continent, there were not many prosperous cities in the territory.

At that moment, the Shang Tribe had already placed their attention on the bustling area in the middle of the South Continent. They began to continuously devour and march. The captives that they had plundered were continuously providing them with surplus labor. The wealthy and powerful were beginning to form.

However, due to the restrictions of the immortal contract, the ancestors of the rulers could not use elixirs and spiritual herbs to extend their lifespans.

Even the leader of the Shang Clan, who was unwilling, secretly obtained Spirit Pills. When those Spirit Pills reached their mouths, they would explode on their own.

As for those who did not respect the teachings of their ancestors and violated the immortal contract, they either died suddenly or lost their minds. After a few attempts, the leader of the Shang Clan dispelled that thought.

The mortal world was rich and did not care about the lifespan of immortals.

In an upscale room in a bustling city in the middle of the South Continent, Wei Shenmo kept nodding as he listened to Li Changshou’s voice transmission.

“It’s been hard on you, Minister Changgeng. I’ve been making arrangements for this since a long time ago!”

It seems that you have never cared about the separation of immortals and mortals!

He had written all that in the memorial back then.

Wei Shenmo smiled and said, “By the way, Youqin Xuanya is the original princess of this race, right? Should we transfer Xuanya over this time?”

Li Changshou said, “Your Majesty, you have the final say. However, Xuanya has been rushing back and forth...”

“It’s decided!”

Wei Shenmo immediately decided and closed his eyes. Soon, he opened his eyes and said, “General Dongmu has already gone to make arrangements. Later, Xuanya will bring a group of Heavenly Soldiers and secretly disguise as mortals to enter the Shang Tribe. Over the years, Xuanya had made outstanding contributions to improve the image and influence of the Heavenly Courts. Changgeng, think about how to reward Xuanya.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Why don’t we wait until Xuanya transcends the Golden Immortal Tribulation and can really lead one party before we reward her?”

“Alright, your senior brother has the final say.” Wei Shenmo raised his eyebrows at Li Changshou.

Li Changshou muttered in his heart. He felt that the Jade Emperor had not suddenly thought things through. Instead, he had arranged something “good” for him.

A superior who was dedicated to giving benefits to his subordinate...

He was really tired.

On the other side, Li Changshou had been secretly observing the surroundings of the Sect Leader, Ji Wuyou. He had also witnessed what it meant to be torn between the immortal sects.

Just as Ji Wuyou had said, the Carefree Immortal Sect and the three immortal sects did not really fight after many factions intervened.

The two sides confronted each other for a month. During that time, the reinforcements arrived one after another.

There was also a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal who was of a higher seniority and had a better relationship with others. He “happened to pass by” and stood up to say “yes” and “indeed”. The three immortal sects retreated angrily and began to negotiate.

Li Changshou was finally relieved.

In fact, if he really wanted to destroy a sect, he had to secretly plan and launch a thunderous attack. He had to penetrate the mountain-protecting array formation in the shortest time possible and unleash the strongest killing power!

The operation of pulling reinforcements everywhere, the two sides confronting each other in a high-profile manner, and constantly showing off their muscles was instead to obtain more benefits in the subsequent negotiations.

The four immortal sects found a mountain. Under the gazes of the experts from both sides who came to help, they began to settle the old matters between them.

From the conflict a hundred years ago, a few disciples of the sect had died. They kept talking about how an elder of an immortal sect had bought inferior pills from the Carefree Immortal Sect tens of thousands of years ago.

The Carefree Immortal Sect had temporarily put the peace and quiet behind their heads and criticized the past.

For example, a few itinerant cultivators had used the name of the Carefree Immortal Sect to cheat an Immortal Sect out of a batch of Dharma treasures. The Immortal Sect had come to the Carefree Immortal Sect to ask for Spirit Stones. In the end, both parties had fought and became the laughing stock of the Middle Continent... and so on.

When the relationship between the two parties became tense again, a mediator stood up and said something fair. Both parties took half a step back and continued to argue.

Li Changshou watched with relish.

The Carefree Immortal Sect, which was originally the weaker party, would definitely have to give up a few spiritual herb shops and pay a sum of Spirit Stones. The problem now was how much they had lost.

Finally, after nearly fifty days of wrangling, the farce came to an end. The Carefree Immortal Sect had lost some blood and the crisis was resolved.

The Sect Leader of the Immortal Du Sect, Ji Wuyou, brought a few elders to attend the thank-you banquet of the Carefree Immortal Sect and quietly embarked on his return journey.

Li Changshou did not let his guard down. Even though there were traces of evil cultivators in the South Ocean and the Western Sect’s schemes were about to be carried out, he still kept a portion of his attention on Ji Wuyou.

During this period of time, Li Changshou had brought the Jade Emperor’s incarnation around to play and patrol the mortal world of the human race. All the arrangements in the South Continent had been completed.

As soon as the evil cultivators of the South Ocean revealed their tracks, Li Changshou sent Marshal Golden Roc over to provide support.

In a few larger countries in the South Continent, he arranged for the paper effigies to monitor at all times to prevent the extermination of the King of Earth and causing a human disaster.

Li Changshou felt that he did not leave any loopholes.

When he arrived at the city where the leader of the Shang Tribe was, he met Kong Xuan in an elegant courtyard.

Kong Xuan asked directly, “Since you have already grasped the enemy’s movements, why don’t you attack when the other party gathers and catch them off guard? That way, we can avoid causing panic to the mortals here.”

Li Changshou thought carefully and said, “To be safe, it’s better to guard this place. I don’t know if these evil cultivators are a pretense. If I attack rashly, I might fall into their trap.”

“That’s true.” Kong Xuan nodded slightly and sat quietly on the wooden chair by the window. She looked down and pondered.

By the side, Wei Shenmo could not help but frown. He subconsciously looked at Kong Xuan and quickly looked away to size up the first peacock after the creation of the world.

At that moment, Kong Xuan looked like a complete woman.

Her figure was slender and curvy. Her face had become beautiful, and her phoenix-like eyes were less dignified. She was more charming. Originally, her gender was not fixed, but now that she was a woman, she had the looks that a woman should have.

The kind that could make “Little Grandmaster” Jiang Lin’er cry.

Wei Shenmo looked at Li Changshou and looked at him in admiration.

Li Changshou instantly understood the meaning behind that gaze. He muttered to Wei Shenmo and quickly clarified the matter.

Kong Xuan asked softly, “Has he returned recently?”

“I came back during the Purple Cloud Palace meeting,” Li Changshou said. “However, I rushed back to Xuandu City.”

Kong Xuan nodded and did not say anything. She sat there and closed her eyes to rest.

Although she had decided on her gender, her personality had never changed. The pride in her nature could not be concealed, and she did not have the heart to hide it.

After waiting for less than half a day, Li Changshou’s paper effigy discovered that dozens of streams of light flew out from an island in the South Ocean and rushed towards the huge city of the South Continent’s Shang tribe.

“You’re here.”

“Yes,” Kong Xuan replied. Five-colored divine light bloomed around him. He slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with killing intent.

Li Changshou looked at his Sect Leader and realized that he had returned to the Immortal Du Sect safely. He focused most of his attention on the matter in front of him.

In Anshui City on the South Ocean.

The young Daoist priest in the form of the Golden-Winged Roc was holding a round pancake and slowly savoring it on the street.

When the stream of light quickly glided over 5,000 kilometers away, the Golden Roc revealed a look of pity. It opened its mouth and swallowed the meat pie. It clapped its hands and turned into a wisp of wind before disappearing.

...

He whispered, “It’s starting.”

On the top floor of the Reincarnation Pagoda, the Daoist who was sitting in the shadows in the corner chuckled and said. The Daoist robe on his body was like a cloth bag with a few patches.

Under the window, Truth Listener swayed its tail in boredom. Ksitigarbha, who was sitting cross-legged beside it, opened his eyes.

Ksitigarbha asked, “Since you know that you will definitely lose, why do you waste your energy?”

“Oh?”

The slightly plump Daoist kept a smile on his lips. He asked, “Junior Brother, what do you think is considered victory and defeat?”

Ksitigarbha could not help but be silent.

A golden alms bowl appeared in the slightly plump Daoist’s hand. He slowly pushed the alms bowl forward. A light screen appeared inside, revealing the outline of a mortal city.

In the sky at the south side of the city, dozens of stars lined up and flickered gently as they rushed towards the city.

The slightly plump Daoist raised his eyebrows and the smile on his lips deepened.

“I almost forgot that Junior Brother’s mount can listen to the hearts of all living beings. I naturally don’t have to reveal this situation. I can already know everything about the Three Realms while sitting here.”

Ksitigarbha frowned and said, “Eldest Senior Brother seems to be suspecting something.”

“That’s right. I do have doubts.”

The slightly plump Daoist, the Eldest Senior Brother of the Western Sect, Maitreya, sat upright and leaned forward. He had a slightly oily face, but Truth Listener subconsciously lowered its head and did not dare to look at him.

Maitreya said slowly, “I’m not doubting you, Junior Brother. I respect you for sacrificing yourself for the spiritual mountain. However, don’t you think that there was something fishy about the previous games with the Water God? Li Changgeng had really predicted everything. He had seized the initiative in every aspect. Even during the battle of the East Ocean’s Dragon Eye, he had rushed over in time. Junior Brother, have you ever suspected that there’s a problem?”

Ksitigarbha’s gaze flickered back and forth. There was a hint of contemplation in his eyes.

At that moment, in the light screen cast by the golden alms bowl, dozens of streams of light had already rushed 50 kilometers near the city and were about to smash towards the palace in the middle of the city.

In the city, Five-colored Divine Light suddenly flashed. A figure quickly appeared in the sky and stood quietly, facing the dozens of evil cultivators who were attacking.

Kong Xuan of the Phoenix Clan.

Maitreya looked at the scene on the screen and did not seem to care. He continued watching Ksitigarbha and Truth Listener through the screen and smiled.

“Junior Brother, apart from being able to detect the voices of all living beings, your mount seems to be able to transmit your thoughts to all spirits.”

Truth Listener’s body stiffened. For some reason, it felt a chill run through its limbs.

It was as if there was an extremely ferocious and evil ferocious beast behind the smiley face. It could swallow the relatively strong one in one gulp.

Ksitigarbha said coldly, “Eldest Senior Brother, I don’t know what you mean. You should pay attention to the human Qi Refinement Warriors that you have arranged.”

“Them?”

Maitreya smiled and said, “Junior Brother, do you know how mortals catch fish? There is a method called fishing. Take a thin rope and a thin hook, wrap it with bait, and sink it into the lake of the river. After waiting for a while, the fish will take the bait and fall into the trap of the fisherman.”

“Eldest Senior Brother used a series of schemes?”

“It’s not a serial plan. It’s just some small arrangements.”

Maitreya raised his hand and pointed at the light curtain. It also seemed to point at Truth Listener through the light curtain, causing the latter’s body to tense up.

“Junior Brother, look.” Maitreya’s smile gradually disappeared. “This woman is Kong Xuan of the Phoenix Clan. She has the Five-colored Divine Light and is comparable to the disciples of the top Saints of the Dao Sect. Even I don’t have the confidence to defeat her. The evil cultivators who had been captured from the trichiliocosm had no idea that they were going to face such enemies. At that moment, they were already panicking. Look, Kong Xuan has taken action.”

As the light curtain appeared, Kong Xuan’s Five-colored Divine Light flickered. It was like five sharp swords sweeping through the sky. More than ten evil cultivators at the front were beheaded.

Kong Xuan snorted coldly and revealed his might.

The group of evil cultivators was stunned. When Kong Xuan’s figure flashed and appeared in front of the evil cultivators, the remaining twenty-odd evil cultivators turned around and ran. They used their techniques and were more than twice as fast as when they came!

Kong Xuan snorted coldly. She raised her hand and divine light descended. Several figures were slashed by the Five-colored Divine Light.

This was just the most superficial use of the Five-colored Divine Light. Its effects of sealing, imprisoning, and brushing were completely useless.

On the top floor of the Reincarnation Pagoda, Maitreya explained the scene with a smile.

For some reason, Truth Listener began to tremble. It buried its head in its claws and did not dare to look up.

“Look, these itinerant cultivators are very smart. They began to flee in all directions. Another Golden Roc flew over from the south. It’s the Golden-Winged Roc that first threw itself into the spiritual mountain and then betrayed the Heavenly Courts. It’s the brother and sister of Kong Xuan.

However, a few of them still have the Greater Teleportation Talisman that can teleport them to the South Ocean.

I have arranged dozens of Primordial Beasts there.”

Ksitigarbha nodded slowly and said, “It’s a good plan, but Senior Brother seems to have underestimated the Water God. He will not fall for such a simple trap.”

Maitreya said, “That’s hard to say.”

“Senior Brother, do you have any other arrangements?”

“Ah.” Maitreya sighed softly. “I’m actually unwilling to interfere with this. However, our Western Sect is indeed in danger. I have carefully observed the Water God for a long time. I have also restored the situation of us fighting the Water God repeatedly and found the Water God’s weakness... Junior Brother, do you think that the Water God is good at scheming and has a suspicious nature?”

“Yes.”

“Then you’re wrong,” Maitreya said. “The Water God has always been pursuing the greatest certainty. His nature is not suspicious, but he seeks stability. Just like now...”

The screen displayed:

Under the encirclement of Kong Xuan and the Golden Roc, the evil cultivators who fled in all directions were quickly defeated. However, a few people took out jade talismans in the chaos and luckily escaped the Five-colored Divine Light and the Golden Feather.

At that moment, the Golden Roc did not hesitate to chase outside the South Ocean. Kong Xuan did not chase after it forcefully and returned to the city.

“Look.” Maitreya smiled and said, “This pair of siblings should not have had the chance to communicate. However, they decisively chose to attack and defend. The Water God is naturally secretly guiding them. Even if he wins easily, he will not be careless. That is the Water God’s style.”

Ksitigarbha asked, “How can the Golden Roc be considered stable if it is chasing alone?”

“Junior Brother, you’re wrong. The Golden Roc is not the only one chasing after them. There’s also the Water God that we can’t see.”

“Senior Brother, why are you so sure? We haven’t seen the Water God’s shadow. Perhaps, he only transformed here today and did not reveal his main body.”

“Why are you so sure... Junior Brother, take a look.”

Maitreya’s fingers slid gently, and a dark place appeared in the golden light screen. It seemed to be an exterior space.

There was a huge hexagonal Dharma Array there. A gray vortex appeared on it. Dozens of figures could be seen, including humans and ferocious beasts, lurking around the Dharma Array.

The GreatTeleportation Talisman landed there. The evil cultivators emerged from it one after another, and a graceful figure took the initiative to welcome them.

In the Reincarnation Pagoda, the gods, spirits, and beasts watched this scene. Ksitigarbha had already seen the outcome of those people. He smiled bitterly.

Maitreya squinted and smiled.

“Junior Brother, haven’t you realized? When the Water God was still the Sea God, his main body would either appear beside the Great Daoist Master or have many treasures protecting him. These were all changes that happened as the Water God’s strength increased. The target that I have chosen this time seems to be a mortal city, but it is actually the Water God’s weakness in the plan to connect the Heavenly Courts and the human mortals. He will naturally take it very seriously. His main body will definitely be there. He will also bring the Connate Cardinal treasure, the Taiji Painting, and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. In the situation just now, since the Golden Roc had chased after him, the Water God had no reason to let his beloved general take risks. According to the Water God’s style, he was the one who was going to attack. The Golden Roc was only going to provide support. With the Taiji Painting and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda protecting him, no one can hurt him except the Saints. It is the safest for him to attack. Look, isn’t he here?”

As Maitreya spoke, the graceful figure walked to the Cosmic Dharma Array. The light blue glow of the array formation illuminated her charming appearance. She was naturally Daoist Wen Jing.

Wen Jing walked to the front of the few people who were fleeing. The corners of her mouth curled into an intoxicating smile, and a demonic glint flashed in her eyes.

The eyes of the evil cultivators immediately became dull. They let Wen Jing walk past them and allowed her slender fingers to brush past their foreheads.

When Wen Jing walked to the other side of the array formation, the kneeling figures suddenly collapsed and turned into piles of sand that floated in the void.

At this moment!

A Taiji Painting appeared strangely above Daoist Wen Jing. The white-browed, white-haired old Daoist priest walked out.

Taibai Jinxing, Li Changgeng!

Wen Jing’s expression changed. She almost subconsciously let out a sharp scream. The dozens of ferocious beasts around her pounced and attacked the old Daoist priest fiercely.

On the top floor of the Reincarnation Pagoda, Maitreya squinted. The light screen cast by the golden alms bowl locked onto Daoist Wen Jing and the other strongest ferocious beasts.

Maitreya’s smile grew wider when he saw them vomiting blood continuously from the Xuanhuang Pagoda.

“The news that has been leaked several times should have nothing to do with Wen Jing. Then... Truth Listener, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”

“Explain... explain what?”

Truth Listener muttered softly, “Did you misunderstand? The Water God wants to kill me.”

However, Ksitigarbha said, “Senior Brother, you’re making such a big fuss just to investigate who the Water God’s spy is?”

“This is just a thirty percent plan.”

Maitreya fiddled with his fingers, and the scene split into two parts.

On the left was the void. The Primordial Beasts were attacking Taibai Jinxing, who was standing on the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. For a moment, he could trap Li Changshou.

On the right was a gray cloud. More than ten black shadows that were wrapped in black Qi were sitting cross-legged quietly. The gray fog seemed to be moving continuously.

Maitreya smiled and said, “Look at these. They are Golden Immortals that I have worked hard to gather. Although their strength is not outstanding, they are all from Jie School. Junior Brother, Truth Listener, I’m only asking you a question today. Where is the hiding place of the Water God’s main body?”

Ksitigarbha frowned. “How can I know?”

“You might not know, but it does.” Maitreya looked at Truth Listener. His smile turned extremely sinister as waves of pressure swept towards the Truth Listener!

Truth Listener exploded with green hair, but in an instant, it was suppressed to the ground by the pressure. Its body was stiff and unable to move.

Ksitigarbha looked angry. “Eldest Senior Brother, what do you mean? Do you think that I betrayed the spiritual mountain and cooperated with the Water God?”

“Junior Brother, don’t be anxious. I just feel that there is something wrong with your divine beast. I will not suspect you.”

Maitreya smiled faintly and pointed his finger at Truth Listener.

“Little fellow, Junior Brother Ksitigarbha is now in the Heavenly Dao sequence, but you are still just a mount. I’ll ask you again. Where does the Water God usually hide? Which Immortal Sect of Ren School did he embark on the cultivation path?”

Truth Listener said, “I really can’t be sure...”

“Really?”

Maitreya’s eyes flickered coldly.

“Eldest Senior Brother, that’s enough.”

Ksitigarbha’s sleeves fluttered, and his long hair danced in the wind. Thick Heavenly Dao power erupted around him, and his eyes shone.

“Truth Listener is my mount.”

Maitreya’s smile did not change, but the cold glint in his eyes seemed to have substance.

“However, you are still a disciple of the Western Sect.”

Crack, crack!

In the corner of the wall beside him, the bookshelf suddenly collapsed. A violent wind blew out of the Reincarnation Pagoda.

“The Immortal Du Sect... is the Immortal Du Sect!”

Truth Listener suddenly shouted, “The place where the Water God is hiding is the Immortal Du Sect. Truth Listener just learned about it half a month ago and has yet to report it to Master!”

Ksitigarbha frowned. The cold glint in Maitreya’s eyes disappeared, and he chuckled naturally.

At that moment, the screen separating Ksitigarbha and Maitreya suddenly changed.

On the left, a few ferocious beasts suddenly threw out dozens of streams of light. They exploded around the Heavenly Courts’ Venus!

On the right, the gray fog suddenly changed. The gray fog dissipated with the wind, and more than ten figures wrapped in black aura appeared in the sky.

They looked down and saw a peaceful Immortal Sect mountain gate. The thin and smooth array formation reflected the light of the sun.

Truth Listener almost held its breath as it watched the scene in the scene. Just as its throat trembled, the dozen or so black shadows suddenly rushed down and crashed into the mountain-protecting array formation without any hesitation!

At that moment, in the image on the left side of the golden screen, Taibai Jinxing suddenly turned around, his eyes filled with anxiety.

On the Little Qiong Peak!

In the forest and streams outside the mountain-protecting array formation!

Figures soared into the sky. Dozens of Heaven Immortal realm men, women, old, and young seemed to have been hiding in various places for a long time. They were about to welcome the dozen or so black shadows that were rushing down from the sky.

The black shadow at the front suddenly stopped. He took out a black pearl from his chest pocket and crushed it. A pitch-black ball surged out and almost instantly enveloped the mountain gate below. It engulfed a thousand kilometers!

The men, women, old, and young who soared into the sky suddenly lost the power to charge forward. They turned into paper effigies in midair and fell weakly!

The paper effigy lost control!

Several black shadows struck the mountain-protecting array formation below. The array formation shone brightly, but cracks appeared on the wall of light.

On the top floor of the Reincarnation Pagoda, Maitreya had already stood up.

“On the account that you, the divine beast, told the truth in the end, I’ll spare it today. From now on, you will be quiet and obedient in the Reincarnation Pagoda.

He had already jumped out of the vortex of the battle between the sects. Why did he have to get involved?

Also, there will definitely not be any clues that point to our spiritual mountain today. Apart from what I told you here, the illusion that I created this time is that the Western Sect and Chan School have joined forces to plot against the Water God. Next, they will not admit that we have done anything.

If we fail to sow discord this time, the Water God will only blame us and not Chan School...

Tsk, I wonder how the meat of a divine beast tastes.”

Truth Listener’s body trembled as it lowered its head and sighed dejectedly.

Maitreya turned to leave. Ksitigarbha said firmly, “Senior Brother, so what if the Immortal Sect of Ren School is destroyed? It can’t harm the Water God’s essence energy.”

“But it will make him unhappy.”

“This will deepen his prejudice against the Western Sect. It will not benefit the Western Sect at all!”

“Silly Junior Brother.” Maitreya, who was facing the wall, turned his head slightly and looked at Ksitigarbha in front of the window. “Be it from his standpoint or his personal emotions, he has already been wanting to destroy the Western Sect. After the Purple Cloud Palace, we became his mortal enemies. Only by making him suffer would he have a deeper fear. His personality that pursues the greatest certainty will let him reevaluate the power of our Western Sect. Most importantly...”

The golden alms bowl flew into Maitreya’s hand. The last scene that remained was Tai Baixing riding the Taiji Painting and leaving. However, the ferocious beasts attacked frantically, causing the surrounding universe to tremble.

At the gate of the Immortal Du Sect, the mountain-protecting array formation had been destroyed by the subsequent black shadows. Figures flew out from the various peaks of the Immortal Du Sect and rushed to fight...

The scene dimmed and dissipated with the light screen. Maitreya had already put the golden alms bowl into his sleeve.

Maitreya was nowhere to be seen. It was as if he had never been there. There were no Dao runes left behind. There was only a chuckle and a faint voice.

“I will feel much better after taking revenge on the Water God.”

Ksitigarbha closed his eyes and frowned. Truth Listener collapsed to the ground and sighed.

“Are you really the one who tipped me off?”

“Master, you have to believe... Ah, just the last few times...”

“Don’t get involved in this in the future.”

“Ah, yes.” Truth Listener closed its eyes and tried its best to sense the thoughts of the living beings in the Immortal Du Sect.

Fear, anger, fear, blankness, chaos.

The Immortal Du Tribulation had arrived.
