Chapter 78: The Gathering of Saints at the Wujie Crisis

  Wuji and others hadn't gone far from under the Kunlun Mountains when they saw an old man with white hair coming towards them. Wuji and others all recognized him, that was Nanji Xianweng who had been serving the Original Heavenly Lord. Although this person wasn't among the Twelve Golden Immortals, his status wasn't much different from Guang Chengzi's, and he was even closer to the Original Saint. He handled matters for the Original Saint.

  Nanji Xianweng first paid his respects to Wuji and others, and the four women also paid their respects to Nanji Xianweng. Wuji found that Nanji Xianweng's cultivation was equivalent to Guangchengzi, and he had a lot of experience, unlike Guangchengzi who didn't understand worldly affairs. No wonder he was trusted by the Primordial Saint.

  Wuji was quite familiar with the Kunlun Mountains, but now that the Kunlun Mountains were the Daoist temple of the Primordial Saint, he couldn't be too casual about it. So Wuji followed Nanji Xianweng as they made their way to the Jade Void Palace.

  Wuji arrived at the Jade Void Palace and saw the Original Saint Person lecturing to his disciples. Wuji did not disturb him, but instead led the four girls to sit below and listen quietly to the lecture. However, these contents were of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, which was somewhat superficial and dull for Wuji, but it was a great opportunity for the four girls.

  Wuji sat below, carefully comprehending the Great Way. He was not confused by the words of the Sage. After a year, the Original Sage finally stopped lecturing on the Way. Wuji led the four maidens to pay their respects to the Original Sage. The more the Original Sage looked at Wuji, the more he loved him. Why wasn't Wuji his own disciple? His great disciple Guang Chengzi was not bad, but compared to Wuji, he was inferior by a large margin.

  At the time of the original saint's contemplation, a purple air suddenly rose three thousand miles away. Wuji clearly understood that this was the arrival scene of some saint. Under the leadership of the original saint, everyone went to welcome him. It turned out to be the Holy Mother Nuwa of the demon tribe. After the original saint and Mother Nuwa saw each other, the original saint's door also followed to see her. Later, Feng Qiu's four daughters saw Mother Nuwa under Wuji's leadership.

  Nüwa's expression was gentle and pleasant towards the original saint, but her attitude towards Wújí is worth pondering. It was a kind of respect for someone of the same level, which made the original saint's subordinates feel inferior. Even though Wújí was the guardian of the Xuanmen sect, Nüwa, as a saint, didn't need to pay too much attention to him. After all, saints looked down on everyone else as ants. The four girls, including Feng Qiū, had seen Wújí single-handedly slaughter a quasi-saint and thought it was only natural.

  The original saints naturally knew the reason why Nüwa Niangniang did so. It was nothing more than that at the beginning of the universe, Hongjun and Tongtian Shengren had a great war. Although Nüwa Niangniang, Jiying Shengren, and Zhunti Shengren came later and didn't witness the whole battle process, judging from the final result, although Hongjun lost, who can guarantee that Hongjun didn't have an ace up his sleeve? Moreover, Hongjun could fight Tongtian for so long, which shows Hongjun's strength. Among the saints, they knew each other's strengths and weaknesses. Tongtian Shengren's temperament and pride wouldn't allow him to go easy on Hongjun or pretend to lose to a quasi-saint.

  When everyone was chatting, in the vast west, two purple gases rose three thousand miles, which was the aura of inviting saints and Zhunti saints to come to Kunlun. Later, in the direction of Jin'ao Island in the East China Sea, a purple gas also rose three thousand miles towards Mount Kunlun. Finally, a purple gas rose three thousand miles from the direction of Shouyang Mountain towards Kunlun. Wuji knew that the first to arrive must be the Tongtian Sect, and then his own teacher, Taishang Shengren.

  Perhaps this trip is just a matter of strength, Nüwa's strength is the weakest, followed by Zhunti, Jiying Shengren and Tongtian Shengren, and the strongest should be his own teacher Taishang Shengren. Nüwa cut off one corpse to achieve merit and become a saint, with the weakest strength. Zhunti Shengren, Jiying Shengren, Tongtian Shengren, and Yuanshi Shengren all cut off two corpses to prove their merit and attain the Tao. However, the strength of the law treasure in one's hand directly affects the ranking among the saints. Finally, Taishang Shengren cut off three corpses to achieve merit and become a saint, with the strongest strength and the most treasures.

  After the saints greeted each other, they took their seats on the six high platforms in the Jade Void Palace. The saints under the saint's gate continued to pay homage to the saint, and the saints' attitude towards them was also like that of Nüwa Niangniang, with some distinction. As for Wújí, there was not a hint of disdain, just as if they were treating their peers.

  This made the various saints under the gate astonished, especially those of the Xuan Jiao Gate. Previously, it was just Nüwa Niangniang, but now all four remaining saints had such an attitude. The Supreme Saint, as the teacher of Wújí, could be forgiven for his deep love for Wújí. Tōngtiān Shèngrén's slightly better treatment of Wújí due to the face of the Supreme Saint was also understandable. However, there was no need for the two saints from the West to do so.

  The Primordial Saint saw the attitude of the various saints towards Wuji, and considering that he himself was very clear about Wuji's strength, Wuji's merits were boundless, and his status as the guardian of the Mystic Gate was slightly lower than theirs. The Primordial Saint suddenly rose to a high platform beside the Six Saints' Nüwa Niangniang, leaving everyone in shock and wonder at what he intended. They all looked towards the Primordial Saint.

  The Primordial Saint said in front of everyone, "Wuji, you take the seat." The various Saints heard the Primordial Saint's words and thought for a moment before each saying, "Good." The disciples below were shocked. How could the Primordial Saint let Wuji take the seat? And how could the other Saints agree to it? Didn't that mean they acknowledged Wuji's power and status as equal to theirs? Had Wuji become a Saint? They all looked at Wuji in surprise.

  As the protagonist, Wuji was stunned at first, but then reacted and realized that his original master had helped him establish his identity. The saints agreed because Wuji already possessed the capital to sit on an equal footing with them. With Wuji's aura and merit not much different from those of the saints, his strength might be slightly inferior, but with his rate of progress, there was no problem. The Three Pure Saints knew that Wuji was well-versed in space-time laws, and if he went all out, even the saints would have no way to deal with him.

  After some thought, Wuji still walked up to the seat with his chest held high. After sitting down, he saw the many saints below him looking at him in surprise, confusion, and jealousy. The way of Wuji is that only by using one's strength can one intimidate them in this vast and powerful world. Wuji immediately released his aura, and even added his understanding of the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws to it, spreading it out in all directions. In an instant, everything was calm again, as if the person who had just shown his power was not Wuji at all.

  The overwhelming pressure of Wuji, although only a flash, stunned everyone. Although for the saints, Wuji's aura had no impact whatsoever, it was just shocking to see Wuji's cultivation speed improve again, and now all three corpses have been beheaded. The saints understand that good and evil are hard to cut off, and it is difficult to cut off obsession. Only Taishang Saint can cut off obsession with the help of merit, while others fail, which shows how difficult it is. According to Honghuang Daozu's words, Wuji will eventually prove his way, and at that time, his status will naturally be equivalent to that of the saints. The saints do not have the ability to kill Wuji now, even if they themselves have fallen from their saintly position, let alone with Sanqing Saint standing behind Wuji. The saints are still very interested in Wuji's aura, and they clearly felt the shadow of the 3,000 Great Dao Laws.

  Below the many saints, apart from Xuandu, Guangchengzi, Duobao Daoren and Randal Daoren who knew some of Wuji's true strength, they did not expect that Wujis current strength was so high. Facing Wujis swift and fleeting aura, it was as if facing a world, they found themselves unable to resist under Wujis aura. Guangchengzi and Randal Daoren, who were initially envious of Wuji, now retracted their emotions, some could only look up in admiration. They had just clearly felt that in front of Wuji, they were like ants, powerless to react. The feelings of the lower-ranking saints below Daluo Jinxian were not so profound, but many disciples almost knelt down, fortunately it was just a flash, otherwise Wuji would have offended many saints.

  After witnessing Wuji's strength, everyone naturally had no doubts about his status, and everything became a matter of course.

  Wuji looked at the seated disciples, with the largest number being the thirty-plus Inner Disciples of the Severing Sect, occupying more than half of the seats. Next were the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Expounding Sect, Yun Zhongzi, Nanji Xianweng, and Randalao Ren. After that came Xuandu of the Human Sect, Mile and Yaoshi of the Western Sect, as well as Fengqiu, Liu Mei, Xiaoxiao, Lingzhen, who were seated below Wuji, along with the various saints and Wuji's mount.

  The original saints as landlords, spoke first, and then the masses of saints began to expound their own Tao. Wújí also started to explain his own evolution of Tao. The people below listened to the great Tao they wanted to hear according to their own schools and interests. After the saints felt that expounding the Tao was not enough, they directly rose up their own auspicious clouds, and in their own auspicious clouds, they performed their understanding of the Great Tao. The people below could watch their comprehension of the Tao in their auspicious clouds.

  Then, seven auspicious clouds were seen to be connected together. The six large auspicious clouds were roughly the same size, but the Supreme Holy One was the largest, and the Goddess Nüwa was the smallest. Next, the Auspicious Cloud of Wújí was the smallest, about 60% that of the Goddess Nüwa. Then, the Auspicious Cloud of Wújí combined with those of the various saints, feeling the pressure from their auspicious clouds. Wújí understood that this was not intentional on the part of the saints, but rather that the position of a saint is supreme and noble, and the auspicious cloud of a saint would not allow the Auspicious Cloud of Wújí, which was not that of a saint, to combine with it. Thus, by instinct, it squeezed towards Wújí, wanting to squeeze out the Auspicious Cloud of Wújí.

  The extreme depth of the feeling of the pressure he is bearing now is many times greater than the pressure that the Extreme bore when the Sage was becoming a saint. The Extreme's auspicious clouds are being compressed, and the Extreme can only resist with all his might, so the degree of shrinkage is extremely small, and it would be hard to detect if one did not observe carefully.

  Wuji last time with Sanqing jointly discussed the Tao, can be said that Sanqing Shengren controlled his own Qingyun did not squeeze Wuji, but this time there is the addition of Nüwa Niangniang and Xifang Ersheng, these three people are not very familiar with Wuji, no need to help Wuji, just right for the three people also want to see what Wuji's real strength is?

  Wuji now has two roads to take, one is for Wuji to die and hold on, but the pressure he will bear will be enormous. The second is for Wuji to push out the auspicious clouds of all saints, which means that Wuji does not yet have the qualifications to discuss Tao with all saints, Wuji's face will be completely lost, and the dignity that has been established with great difficulty will be broken.
