Chapter 149
It is said that last time Wuji appeared in the East Sea, he stabilized the East Sea which was already on the verge of collapse, and with his magical powers, he fixed an even wider area, leaving a place for Hongyuan to settle down, which was also on the verge of destruction.
At the time of Wuji's action, countless Da Shentong in the Hongyuan world suppressed a piece of heaven and earth with their own or innate Lingbao, stabilizing space. However, the strength of these people is much weaker than that of Wuji, and the stabilized space is limited.
The Desolate World suddenly became resplendent, with treasures radiating everywhere. However, the speed of the Desolate World's fragmentation remained unchanged; the world that Wuji and others had stabilized was only a corner of the Desolate World, and its fragmentation was still the overall trend.
At this moment, a huge wheel of dharma suddenly appeared in the vast expanse of the universe, slowly rotating, its shadow enveloping the entire world. The speed at which the world was cracking apart came to an abrupt halt. A voice rang out: "High above the ninefold clouds, the Taoist truth is revealed. Beyond the mysterious and yellow heavens, I shall be the revered master. Pangu created the Taiji, the two instruments and four images follow. One Dao transmits to three friends, two teachings expound and divide. The mysterious gate leads all, one breath transforms the universe."
Wuji suddenly heard a voice in his ear: "Wuji, come quickly to the Purple Mansion to see me". Wuji saw that the Honghuang world had stabilized, so he withdrew his own power and then broke through space, disappearing into the void.
Wuji then arrived at the Zixiao Palace and saw that all of the Six Saints of the Heavenly Way had arrived except for Nüwa. Wuji thought that after paying their respects, each saint would take their seat and quietly wait for the arrival of Hongjun Daozu.
Nüwa then arrived at the Zixiao Palace, where she exchanged greetings with Wuji and others before sitting down in her own seat to quietly await the appearance of Hongjun Daozu. A moment later, Hongjun Daozu appeared silently and unnoticed before everyone, fortunately, all the saints and Wuji had already become accustomed to Hongjun Daozu's way of appearing, so they were not surprised.
Hong Jun Dao Zu appeared on the high platform, and Wuji suddenly felt a surge of heavenly pressure rushing towards him. He hurriedly exerted himself to resist and persevere, buying time as he felt like an ant in this encounter with Hong Jun Dao Zu.
Wuji hadn't felt this way for a long time, but now Wuji was once again feeling this way, just like a small boat facing the endless ocean. Enduring the wind and rain on the sea surface, at this moment Hongjun Daozu got angry, Wuji was just like his own small boat encountering a typhoon storm on the sea surface, with the danger of shipwreck and death lurking at any time.
Wuji, the only one who resisted Hongjun Daozu's pressure with a calm heart, turned his head and found that among all the saints, except for Nüwa Niangniang and himself, the rest, including the Three Pure Saints, the Guiding Saint, and the Zhunti Saint, were all sweating profusely.
Wuji would not think that it was because his and Nüwa's cultivation were stronger than the Five Saints of the Heavenly Way. Wuji's cultivation, although among the saints with Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and Jietai Shengren, would not think that he is stronger than them, let alone there being a Taishang Shengren who was slightly better than them. Nüwa's cultivation was even weaker than his own, so it was even more impossible.
The only reason that can be explained for the past is that Hong Jun Dao Zu and Nüwa Niangniang showed mercy to themselves, and after a moment's thought, Wuji realized that it was possible that he and Nüwa Niangniang had not taken action in this great calamity, and had no direct relationship with the destruction of heaven and earth this time.
After a while, the pressure on Hongjun Daozu's body dissipated, but Wuji clearly felt that the current state of the saints was not right. The footsteps of the saints were now somewhat light and floating. Wuji and others looked at each other, then sat down on the futon to wait for Hongjun Daozu's instructions.
Hong Jun Dao Zu said: "The replacement of dynasties in the mortal world is normal, and also because of the vacancy in the heavenly court, the selection of divine generals coincides with the 1,500-year cycle of the gods' massacre. You all love to protect your disciples, and it was decided that each would rely on their own destiny. Who would have thought that you are not compatible with each other, and instead gave rise to resentful and foolish thoughts."
The war of all saints caused the Honghuang to shatter, and all living beings in the three realms suffered from this disaster. Laozi, Yuanshi, and Lingbao, you three are the leaders of the Xuanmen sect, originally one body but now attacking each other, what is the reason for this discrimination against the saints?
The three clear saints heard the scolding of Hong Jun Dao Zu and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Originally, the Tongtian Sect Master had already made preparations for his own disciples to be listed on the heavenly board, but as the Great Calamity developed, more and more people from the Jie Teaching were listed on the heavenly board, yet the Tongtian Sect Master showed no signs of it, which couldn't help but make the Jie Teaching disciples feel dissatisfied with their own sect master.
The Tongtian Sect Master naturally felt the resentment of his subordinates towards him, and even the Tongtian Sect Master himself felt a little guilty. After discussing with Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Shengren, they decided to quietly seek a thread of life for their disciples in the midst of the crisis.
Then the Tongtian Sect Master devoted himself to planning for his own disciples. When Zhao Gongming was about to die, the Tongtian Sect Master gave him a substitute wooden puppet, saving Zhao Gongming's life, but also severely injuring his vitality, and he had to return to his own Emei Mountain. Later, Sanxiu set up the Nine-Turn Yellow River Array, trapping the twelve Golden Immortals in the array. However, Guangchengzi was already a quasi-sage, and Taizhen Zhenren and Yuding Zhenren were also at the peak of Daluo Jinxian. The three of them managed to escape from the array.
However, Bi Xiao's temperament was not enough, and she dared to be disrespectful to Yuanshi Tianzun. From then on, Yuanshi Tianzun personally took action and severely injured Bi Xiao. Fortunately, just as Bi Xiao was at the brink of life and death, Tongtian Jiaozhu arrived in time and saved her.
After that, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu had a great battle, but one had the Pangu flag, an attacking treasure, and the other had the Qiankun Ding, a defensive treasure. For a time, it was difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat. However, when Tongtian Jiaozhu took out the Qiankun Ding, it shocked both the Jietai Shengren and the Zhunti Shengren, who thought that Tongtian Jiaozhu not only had the Zhuxian sword array that could not be broken by the four saints, but also had the Qiankun Ding. They became very anxious.
The two who were originally prepared to watch the fight between the strong and the weak suddenly changed their stance and turned to support Yuanshi Tianzun, who was in a weaker position. The addition of Zhunti Zhenren and Jieyin Zhenren immediately brought about a huge change in the situation of Fengshen Bang.
