Chapter 47: Tai Qing said originally

  The three saints heard Wuji's personal account, although the three had already understood everything through heavenly machinery, but still had a different feeling. They were surprised that Wuji did not use his divine powers against the enemy at the critical moment of life and death, and broke through his cultivation in the battle of life and death. Hearing that Wuji was willing to be a human sandbag for about 500 years among the witch tribe to increase his close combat ability, they were satisfied with Wuji's perseverance.

  Especially when Tongtian Shengren heard that Wujizong's close combat ability was comparable to that of the Great Witch, he revealed an excited light. His eyes were filled with a strong desire for battle, and Tongtian's abnormal self-awareness shocked Taichu Shengren and Yuanshi Shengren.

  "Wuji, I suppose your close combat skills are quite good now, shall we have a match?" Tongtian Shengren said with a smile. Wuji, who was below, heard Tongtian Shengren's words and hastily shook his head in refusal, saying "The disciple dare not."

  Tongtian saw Wuji refuse, and continued to tempt him: "Master's nephew, Master Shu had obtained one of the four pre-heavenly spiritual treasures, the Water Spiritual Pearl, a while ago. If you can make Master Shu happy, this will be yours."

  Wuji heard Tongtian Shengren say "Shuiling Pearl", Wuji's heart had a hundred wishes, but in order to leave a good impression in front of the remaining two elders, he could only look at Taiching Shengren and Yuanshi Shengren on one side.

  Yuanshi Saint just wanted to speak out and stop him, but was preempted by Taiqing Saint who spoke first: "Third brother, isn't this bullying your junior? As a saint, you are bullying an aspiring saint, do you have the nerve?"

  Tongtian Shengren saw his proposal being refuted by Taiching Shengren, and could only explain: "How can I, as your senior brother, bully my junior brother's disciple? I will suppress my power to the level of a quasi-saint. Although my understanding of the Tao is higher than that of my junior brother, this is close combat, and I am just one person against a seasoned veteran like you, so it's not considered bullying."

  Taiqing Saint thought for a moment and agreed to Tongtian Saint's proposal. In a voice that Tongtian Saint could hear, he said to Wujidao: "Disciples, add oil later, teach your master uncle well, don't give me face, beat him hard, regardless of winning or losing, I will give you a bottle of Jiuzhuan Jindan."

  Afterwards, the Taiqing Saint sealed the cultivation of Tongtian Saint in the quasi-saint middle period with his cooperation. In a short period of time, without the help of other saints, it was impossible to recover his cultivation. Afterwards, the Taiqing Saint took Tongtian Saint, who had not yet adapted to his own strength, and Wuji together into the space inside the Taiji diagram. The Taiji diagram is self-contained in space, even the Heavenly Way cannot perceive it, preventing others from checking the heavenly machine and knowing about Tongtian's shameful affairs.

  Yuanshu Saint saw Tongtian Saint and Wuji being absorbed into the Taiji diagram, leaving only himself and Taichu Saint on the scene. He expressed his doubts: "Big brother, why do you tolerate third brother's recklessness? It really loses face for saints. You don't stop him, why not let me stop him?"

  "Second brother, you don't know this, but I have my reasons for doing things this way. Think about it, the three of us emerged from our true forms and have been living together ever since. The three of us are noble and powerful, and others dare not offend us. But perhaps it's fate, or maybe our personalities are connected to our appearances? I took on the form of an old man, so I'm more open-minded towards external things and chose the path of non-action. You, second brother, took on a middle-aged appearance, your strengths are stability and being a good teacher, but your weakness is that you pay too much attention to superficial conflicts. Third brother took on a youthful appearance, his personality is exactly opposite to yours, his weakness is that he's impulsive, but he values emotions deeply. Do you agree with my evaluation of the three of us brothers?"

  The original saint didn't know why his elder brother would say such unrelated things, but after carefully thinking back to the experiences of the three brothers together, although he didn't want to admit his own family's shortcomings, he couldn't help but acknowledge that his elder brother's evaluation of himself and others was spot on. The original saint said: "What my brother says is naturally correct, but what does it have to do with this matter?"

  Taiqing Shengren replied, "Second brother, the three of us brothers were transformed from the Three Divisions of Pangu Yuan Shen. The time it took for us to transform into our physical forms was only a brief moment apart. I was the first to transform, you were second, and third brother was last. Each of us has his own pride, especially you, who consider yourself the eldest, with me as the second. Even if your older brother's cultivation is higher than yours, I'm afraid you wouldn't be willing to admit it in your heart, thinking that I only transformed a brief moment before you."

  Taiqing Saint saw that Yuanshu Saint had an unpleasant expression and didn't wait for his response, continuing to say: "Third Brother has a impulsive personality, often doing things not in line with your wishes. You, as the eldest brother, frequently lecture him, satisfying your pleasure of being a mentor. Once or twice is fine, but multiple times will inevitably lead to reverse psychology, causing him to become fed up with you. As we three brothers were born from the same origin and have equivalent cultivation levels, all being supreme saints in the world. What makes you qualified to lecture him like that? If not for Third Brother's consideration of brotherly affection, I'm afraid he would have already taken action against you. However, now his heart is probably filled with resentment. This time, as the eldest brother, I took advantage of his trial with Wuji and intentionally let him hear my previous words to provoke his anger, allowing him to release his resentment through battle with Wuji. Second Brother, do you understand now?"

  The original saint heard his brother's words and thought about his past behavior, feeling somewhat inappropriate. He had not considered the feelings of his own brothers, especially his third brother, Tongtian. He had always treated him like a child who never grew up, scolding him severely with a parental attitude. Now that their status was equal, the original saint felt somewhat disheartened and said, "Brother's words are extremely right, but I was thoughtless and too harsh on third brother. When third brother comes out, I will personally apologize to him and hope he can forgive me. From now on, I will be more mindful."

  Taiqing Saint saw the expression of the Original Saint, he could understand it, after all, he himself was no exception, only that he had long since let go. Taiqing Saint opened his mouth to comfort: "Second brother doesn't need to blame himself excessively, let bygones be bygones, in the future second brother just needs to pay attention a bit, I believe third brother will also understand and forgive you."

  Taiqing Holy One first comforted Yuanshi Holy One, seeing Yuanshi Holy One's mood improve, couldn't help but think to himself: "Isn't it the same with me? It's just that I have one more person to take responsibility for." Afterwards, Taiqing Holy One shifted his attention to Yuanshi Holy One and said, "Let's go watch their competition first, it should be very exciting." After finishing speaking, he pulled Yuanshi Holy One into the Taiji diagram, above Tongtian Holy One and Wuji, hiding their figures and quietly watching the two compete. However, they arrived a bit late, as both sides had already engaged in combat.
