Chapter 343 The Joy of Not Being A Person
The dragon race was really in a tragic situation this time...
Although the process of the Sea Eye ‘breaking the dam’ was not long, most of the dragon experts who were closest to the Sea Eye, who did not hesitate to pounce on the Sea Eye, and the dragons who were originally suppressing the Sea Eye were torn apart by the sea current.
It seemed that only ten to twenty percent of the dragon race had died. However, those who had died were the high-end combat power of the East Ocean Dragon Palace. After that battle, the strength of the East Ocean Dragon Palace had been greatly weakened. If the losses of the West Ocean Dragon Palace were included, the damage to the dragon race during the short battle, and the sudden disappearance of the largest dragon treasure vault in the East Ocean... The dragon race had suffered a huge loss. The good news was that one of the Sea Eyes that the dragon race needed to use their lives to suppress had been reduced. The power of the East Ocean Dragon Palace had been completely unsealed. Li Changshou stood in front of the metal rod and looked at the Sea Eye that was no longer a threat. His gaze was complicated. There was no need to find an excuse or push the blame to the dragon race for being too anxious after the Sea Eye was exposed. This time, he had lost to the Western Sect.
No matter how many schemes and tricks he had, he still lacked the power to turn the tide at the crucial moment...
That power could strengthen the Heavenly Courts to the point of being powerful enough to suppress the Saints.
He could also unleash the combat power of the Great Daoist Master and Fairy Yun Xiao in a short period of time...
“Water God.” The old Dragon King, who was dressed in a robe, walked behind Li Changshou and bowed deeply. Li Changshou turned around and hurriedly supported him. “What are you doing, Dragon King?”
The Dragon King said, “I don’t know what to say about you saving the line of succession of the East Ocean, Water God. However, if you have any requests in the future, please speak frankly. There are no taboos.”
“Dragon King, the great calamity is also a great fortune. The dragon race should learn a lesson from this matter.” Li Changshou changed the topic and asked, “How do you plan to deal with the Four Seas Immortal Flood Dragons, Dragon King?” “Ah.” The Dragon King of the East Ocean sighed softly. There was a hint of helplessness in his dragon eyes. “There have been too many casualties today. Although the East Ocean’s eye is fine, the sins of the dragon race have yet to be resolved. Let them each swear an oath to never invade the Sea Eye. If anyone wants to leave, they can. If anyone wants to stay, they will be like a dragon.”
“That’s good.”
Li Changshou took out a jade token from his sleeve and handed it to the Dragon King of the East Ocean. “This metal rod was given to me by Emperor Da Yu. It was originally refined by Grand Supreme Elder. From the looks of it, it can be used as a treasure to seal the Sea Eye. I will leave it here. The Dragon Palace must safeguard it. There are nineteen strategies in this jade token. I just wrote them. If you find them useful, you can consider them.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the paper effigy carried Ao Yi and swam over from afar. He placed the unconscious Ao Yi in front of the Dragon King. “Please don’t blame me, Dragon King,” Li Changshou said in a low voice. “Ao Yi treats me as a brother. I can’t bear to see him suffer in the Sea Eye. Ao Yi did not escape on his own accord at the crucial juncture.”
“Thank you, Water God...”
The Dragon King wrapped Ao Yi in water and sent him to the elders who were waiting in the distance. The Dragon King sent a voice transmission. “We should...”
“I still have to express what I should,” Li Changshou replied via voice transmission. “Although His Majesty is a Heavenly Emperor, he does not take away merit just because he wants to. That is His Majesty’s accumulation over the years. I just heard from an elder that the East Ocean Dragon Palace’s treasure vault seems to have been robbed.” “Water God, don’t worry.” The old Dragon King sighed and said, “It’s just some accumulation of precious materials. There are two more treasure vaults in the East Ocean.”
Li Changshou nodded and said, “The Heavenly Courts will need armor and weapons next.” “Thank you for your advice, Water God!”
Li Changshou sent another voice transmission. “The two Fellow Daoists of Jie School have contributed greatly this time. There’s no need for the Dragon Palace to send any precious gifts. Remember to go to the Three-Immortal Island and the Luofu Cave to thank them in person later.”
“Of course.” The Dragon King of the East Ocean agreed. Li Changshou took out two bottles of recuperation Spirit Pills that he had refined and expressed his sincerity.
After the Dragon King thanked him, he handed the pills over. Li Changshou took his leave on the grounds that he still had to deal with the East Ocean tsunami...
It was not appropriate for him to observe such a sorrowful matter.
When Li Changshou used the Water Escape to rush to the surface of the sea, the dragons behind him bowed.
The Dragon King looked down at the jade token in his hand and injected his immortal power. Small words flew out from it.
“First Strategy For The Dragons: Quickly set up the Water God Deity Positions of the various Water Gods in the South Continent. Take the initiative to ask the Heavenly Courts to restrict you with harsh rules. Make sure that you accumulate enough merit as soon as possible and fill up the Sea Eyes of the West Ocean, North Ocean, and South Ocean.”
“Second Strategy For The Dragons: Establish the Dragon Gate and pave the way for the dragons to advance.”
[Third Strategy For The Dragons]: Forge the Water Army and enter the Major Chiliocosm around the five continents...]
When Li Changshou left the East Ocean, Fairy Yun Xiao, Zhao Gongming, and General Dongmu were waiting on the cloud. The 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers had already been divided into dozens and rushed to the East Ocean Coast just in case. After explaining what they were going to do next, the four of them rode a cloud and easily caught up to the water line that was spreading towards the west... After thinking carefully, Li Changshou smiled at Zhao Gongming and said, “Brother, thank you. Please use the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl to absorb all the tsunamis in the East Ocean.” “It’s a small matter!”
Zhao Gongming smiled and did not suspect anything. He activated the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl and sucked in all the water that had seeped out of the Sea Eye.
The entire process did not even result in any casualties.
After Zhao Gongming was done with that, he was about to return on a cloud when a huge golden cloud flew over from the sky. Half of the cloud went to look for the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers, while the other half floated above their heads.
Golden rays of light landed. Li Changshou, Zhao Gongming, Fairy Yun Xiao, and General Dongmu each obtained merit.
General Dongmu was not surprised. Li Changshou observed Zhao Gongming’s reaction. Fairy Yun Xiao took out the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice and channeled a considerable amount of power of merit to it.
Li Changshou had obtained the most merit. His Golden Body of Merit took another small step forward. Secondly, Zhao Gongming obtained 80% of Li Changshou’s merit. At that moment, he was rather proud. He stroked his beard and smiled. “I can’t believe there will be a day when I gain merit.” Li Changshou reminded him, “Brother, don’t underestimate this merit. If you don’t have a Connate Cardinal treasure to protect yourself, you still need this merit to protect yourself. Only then can you avoid being schemed against by evil techniques!” Upon hearing Li Changshou’s serious tone, Zhao Gongming nodded and smiled. “Thank you for your concern, Brother. I’ll remember this.” Yun Xiao looked at her Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice and pursed her lips. General Dongmu smiled and said, “Water God, I’ll go back and report to His Majesty. This time, the Water God has filled the Sea Eye, saved the dragon race, and protected the dignity of our Heavenly Courts. This is a great merit...”
“General Dongmu!”
Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Don’t go and congratulate His Majesty!” “Huh?”
General Dongmu was confused.
Li Changshou explained, “We actually lost in the East Ocean this time. The Dragon Palace suffered heavy losses, so did the Heavenly Courts. There’s nothing worth rejoicing for. I did not plan this well enough. I will go and ask His Majesty for forgiveness later.” “General Dongmu, just say that the Dragon Palace had been severely injured by the ferocious spirits. He would definitely blame the destruction of the Sea Eye on the Demonic Flood Dragon that had been tainted by the sea of blood. He would then ask His Majesty to give the order to investigate the ferocious spirits that had caused chaos in the East Ocean in the Three Realms. That will do.”
General Dongmu cupped his hands and said, “Water God, don’t worry. I will remember all of that. However, the situation today is clearly the Western Sect’s scheme. Why don’t we use righteousness to pressure the Western Sect?” “It’s useless to pressure them. They will only suffer a backlash from the Western Sect,” Li Changshou said seriously. “Moreover, without any evidence, how can you say that the Western Sect did it? There are some things that cannot be said.” Zhao Gongming muttered, “The Heavenly Courts have suffered such a huge loss. Are we just going to let it go? Changgeng, do you want me to go to the Aparagodānīya Continent and stand up for Little Aunt-Master and you!?!” “Brother, you don’t have to do that.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “The rise of the Heavenly Courts has to be based on experience. The Saint of the Western Sect is the Saint of our Dao Sect. Those ferocious spirits had obtained the Dragon Palace’s treasure vault today and had taken revenge on the dragon race and the Heavenly Courts. They would be quiet for a while later. This period of time is especially important to the Heavenly Courts.” “This is too infuriating!” Zhao Gongming was a little depressed. He wanted to continue, but Fairy Yun Xiao pursed her lips. “Big Brother, don’t cause trouble for him. This matter needs to be handled carefully.” Zhao Gongming immediately nodded. “Second Sister is right!”
At that moment, General Dongmu rushed to meet the Heavenly Soldiers with Li Changshou’s instructions and went to the Heavenly Courts to report. Yun Xiao saw that Li Changshou looked tired and said gently, “I’ll send you back to the mountain to rest first. I don’t know where Senior Brother Xuan Du has gone.” “Let me send you back. This place is not far from the Three-Immortal Island.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “I’ll ask you to send me back to the Sea God Temple later.”
Yun Xiao nodded slightly. “You can rest on the Three-Immortal Island.”
“There are still many things to do.” Li Changshou’s smile gradually disappeared. “This time, we have to summarize the mistakes and avoid such loopholes in the future. This time, something happened to the dragon race. Next time, it might endanger me. I have to be vigilant.”
Zhao Gongming smiled and said, “Brother, you’re really stable.”
Li Changshou seemed to have thought of something and frowned. Yun Xiao looked up at the “old man” and seemed to be able to see through his transformation technique. When she saw the young man’s face, she did not look away for a moment. Zhao Gongming, who was behind the two of them, was speechless.
He felt that there was an extra option in the mystical ability.
Yun Xiao rode a cloud and brought the two of them to Three-Immortal Island. They entered the layers of clouds and found the Immortal Island hidden by the array formation.
The three of them spread their immortal senses inside the array.
That was a habit that almost all Qi Refinement cultivators had. However, when Li Changshou released his immortal senses, he would subconsciously be careful. If he encountered an Immortal Sense Poison Pill, he would immediately cut off his detection. Fairy Yun Xiao frowned. Master Zhao’s eyes lit up. Li Changshou silently supported his forehead with one hand.
He felt helpless. In a courtyard surrounded by smoke, “Li Changshou” and “Yun Xiao” were hugging each other. Their expressions were a little exaggerated as they said some romantic words that Li Changshou would never try to say.
What made Li Changshou want to poke his eyes and make himself blind was that the “Li Changshou” in that place was using his original appearance...
Li Changshou, who was in the pavilion, shouted affectionately, “Yun, look at me. Look closer. Do you see your face in my eyes?”. “Shou, don’t look at me like that. It makes me feel like flowers are blooming in my heart. I feel like there’s a little deer running around and bumping my heart.”
“Yun...”
“Kneel!”
Suddenly, they heard a soft shout. The two of them, who were hugging each other, separated instantly. With two loud bangs, they turned into two fairies who looked like young girls. Qiong Xiao’s face turned pale. Bi Xiao, who was dressed in a green chiffon dress, was moving as fast as an illusion. She pressed her legs and knees together, pinched her ears, and pursed her lips...
Qiong Xiao trembled and said, “Sister, Sister, when did you come back?” Yun Xiao’s figure flashed and appeared in the pavilion. She picked up the Shadow-Retaining Ball on the stone table and crushed it.
“Do the two of you think that cultivation is too boring?” Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao trembled. Qiong Xiao knelt beside Bi Xiao silently, her eyes filled with regret.
Regret... She was filled with regret.
On the cloud beside the island, Li Changshou turned his head and did not see Zhao Gongming. Then, he looked down and saw Master Zhao standing up slowly with his hands on his knees, looking awkward.
“Hey, my leg is even... Why did my old ailment act up just now...”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless. What are you afraid of?
After staying on the Three-Immortal Island for a while, Li Changshou bade farewell to Zhao Gongming and headed towards the East Continent. Yun Xiao instructed Zhao Gongming to escort Li Changshou to a safe place to prevent him from being schemed against by the Western Sect. Although Zhao Gongming wanted to say, “Second Sister, can’t you just protect him?”, he couldn’t...
Ahem!
How can the disciple of Jie School be afraid of his sworn sister?
He just did not dare to do it.
Therefore, Zhao Gongming rejected Li Changshou’s suggestion to part ways in the East Ocean and forcefully pulled Li Changshou to the Sea God Temple of the South Continent, making it harder for Li Changshou to go home. Finally, with the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and the Cosmic Ruler protecting him, Li Changshou successfully returned to the Little Qiong Peak of the Immortal Du Sect. He hid in the array formation and allowed the paper effigy to become active.
The Western Sect...
Li Changshou was also a little troubled. He was not in a hurry to see the Jade Emperor, nor did he look for the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, who had gone somewhere. He placed his attention on the paper effigy and strolled around the lake and spiritual beast enclosure of the Little Qiong Peak. After careful consideration, he summarized and formulated the next step of the plan. Li Changshou scanned the Heaven-Breaking Peak with his immortal senses and discovered that everything was fine. Li Changshou did not bother about it.
Unknowingly, he walked to the straw hut by the lake. Li Changshou stopped in his tracks and looked at his master, who was meditating. It’s time to arrange for Master to go up. I should take advantage of this opportunity...
The next memorial that he had to write to the Jade Emperor had already been thought through.
“Senior Brother?”
Ling’e flew over from the direction of the chess room on a cloud. She landed gracefully in front of Li Changshou and asked softly, “What’s wrong? You look awful.”
“I’ve been tricked.” Li Changshou smiled. “I encountered some obstacles outside, but it’s not a big deal.” Ling’e blinked. “Can anyone plot against Senior Brother?”
“There are many people,” Li Changshou said seriously. “There is always someone better. There are also extraordinary existences at the top. We are just two small fish in the Primordial World. Don’t be arrogant and complacent because of the compliments from your fellow disciples in the sect. Be respectful!”
Ling’e pursed her lips. “Senior Brother, I was wrong.”
“Yes, I feel much better after teaching you a lesson.” Li Changshou casually pointed at a white cloud and stepped onto it. “I’m going to the Pill Chamber to refine pills. At the same time, I have to think about some important matters. This time, I’ve decided to copy the ‘Steadiness Sutra’ six thousand times. However, I’m too busy to take time out...”
“All the best!”
Ling’e immediately clenched her fists and gestured for him to work hard. She turned around and was about to use Wind Escape. Li Changshou flicked his finger, and Ling’e’s body trembled slightly. Her forehead hit an invisible wall. She heard her senior brother say leisurely, “I’ll have to trouble you to accept the punishment on my behalf this time, Junior Sister.” “Yes, I understand.” Ling’e agreed aggrievedly. Li Changshou felt much better and rode a cloud towards the Pill Chamber.
He would be happy if he did not become a human.
At that moment, a small Taiji Painting appeared on Li Changshou’s main body. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and the Cosmic Ruler hurriedly bade him farewell and entered the Taiji Painting.
He said that his eldest disciple had summoned him... Li Changshou seemed to have sensed a familiar filthy aura through the Taiji Painting.
Blood Sea?
The Great Daoist Master went to the Blood Sea?
At the edge of the Netherworld, in the depths of the boundless blood sea, a beautiful, scantily-clad female Asura with two arms was sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the sea of blood. She was absorbing the power of the Blood Sea to heal herself. There was a silver-white sword on her knee. Suddenly, she heard a chuckle. The female Asura abruptly opened her eyes. The aura around her trembled and she suddenly looked up. On the sea of blood, the Taiji Painting slowly rotated, and a young Daoist in green stepped out. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda was above his head, and he was holding a long green ruler. The Taiji Painting was slowly circling behind him. The churning sea of blood had instantly quietened down...
“It’s my turn.”
