Chapter 624: The Killing Tribulation Begins
He had obtained the Chaos Bell. It was actually up to the Grandmaster of Heaven to use it to suppress the fate of Jie School.
He was about to return to the Primordial World and was about to make a turn to capture the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy. The Grandmaster of Heaven had to make a decision...
However, at that moment, Zhao Gongming asked worriedly, “Master, although the Chaos Bell is one of the three treasures formed by the Heaven-Splitting Divine Axe, can it be suppressed? Last time, the red lotus exploded after suppressing less than half of it...”
The Chaos Bell trembled for a long time when it heard that. Its resistance was even more obvious.
At that moment, Li Changshou, Zhao Gongming, the Golden Spirit, and the Turtle Spirit looked at the Grandmaster of Heaven, who was standing in front of the Chaos Bell.
The Grandmaster of Heaven was communicating with the Chaos Bell.
“There are many people in Jie School, and there are many experts. There are countless disciples in the sect. It is said that tens of thousands of immortals are coming to court.”
“The Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus has exploded!”
“The teachings of Jie School are to obtain a chance of survival for the living beings of the world.”
“The Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus has exploded!”
“Jie School...”
“The Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus has exploded!”
The Grandmaster of Heaven was speechless. He glared at Zhao Gongming, who had revealed the matter regarding the red lotus. He made up his mind and cursed the Chaos Bell. “Changgeng doesn’t dare to use you. If you don’t let me use you, wouldn’t it ruin the matter if the Western Sect takes advantage of you? It will be destroyed here!”
Clang!
The Qingping Sword was unsheathed. The Grandmaster of Heaven was filled with killing intent.
“Uncle-Master! No, no!”
Li Changshou hurriedly stopped him and persuaded the Grandmaster of Heaven.
The Chaos Bell, which had already been restrained, made a few trembling noises. Its spiritual perception was also crying.
Li Changshou said, “Uncle-Master, let me talk to it.”
“Hmph!”
The Grandmaster of Heaven put away the Qingping Sword and faced the Chaos Bell with the back of his hand.
Li Changshou took two steps forward and looked at the palm-sized bell in front of him. A few usable methods surfaced in his heart, and he pondered for a while.
The Chaos Bell was clearly preparing for battle. Its body was leaning backward.
“Senior...”
“They exploded the Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus!”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “I know about that. Moreover, I personally brought the red lotus to the Green Touring Palace back then. Although the twelfth-grade red lotus was indeed destroyed, the Grandmaster of Heaven acted in time and protected most of the lotus petals.”
“Isn’t that also crippled?”
“Senior.” Li Changshou cleverly changed the topic. “It’s actually a little inconvenient to talk like that. I know that Connate treasures have their own pride and are unwilling to transform with their spirituality. I wonder if Senior is the same. If I can transform into a human and chat, it will naturally be much more convenient.”
Bang~
The Chaos Bell sounded softly. Immortal light circulated on it. Although it was restrained by the Grandmaster of Heaven, it had recovered to ten feet tall.
Immortal light gathered on the top of the bell and transformed into a beautiful female immortal.
Her skin was fair and translucent. Her face was drop-dead gorgeous, and she had a noble and elegant aura. She was dressed in a wide dress that looked like it was from the ancient times, but it was still luxurious and magnificent.
Li Changshou frowned. “Senior, can you not use the appearance of the Sun Goddess?”
“Why?” ‘Sister Zhong’ was puzzled. “Is there anyone who doesn’t admire Xi He?”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
There was too much information in that sentence.
Is the Ancient Demon Court really per capita?
The Chaos Bell circulated with light and transformed into a fairy. She sat on the top of the bell and swayed her feet gently. Although she was less elegant this time, she was more delicate and elegant.
Although it had transformed into an illusion, it still used its spiritual perception to transmit its spiritual will. Li Changshou and the others had to understand its meaning.
The Chaos Bell’s spiritual will said, “Anyway, that’s the matter. I can let the Heaven Ascension Sect erase my spirituality and use me to suppress the luck of Jie School. Anyway, my spirituality will definitely be greatly damaged. Whether I can suppress it will depend on their luck. If I’m tainted by the negative karma of Jie School, I won’t have the face to be a treasure. Or I can be used as a defensive treasure. Firstly, I won’t provoke the Heavenly Dao and look back at the ancient times. Secondly, I won’t do anything obsequious. Two choices. Let him choose.”
Li Changshou pondered for a while and smiled. “Why not compromise between the two?
“Can this be a compromise? How?”
The Chaos Bell cursed, “You can’t even suppress the painting of Jie School! I was afraid of the scene of the Grandmaster of Heaven preaching in the ancient times. There were birds, beasts, humans, immortals, and demons on the island. They did not reject anyone! He even intercepted a chance of survival. It’s obvious that he lost himself in the conversation.”
The Grandmaster of Heaven sighed.
Li Changshou reminded, “Is there any way to only use you to suppress the luck of the core disciples of Jie School?”
The Chaos Bell said firmly, “Impossible.”
Zhao Gongming said, “Changgeng, suppressing the luck is actually to cut off the power of the negative karma backlash and not let the negative karma affect the destiny of the sect. It’s not about placing the treasure above our heads but to bear the Heavenly Dao’s revenge on the Great Sect. How can we only protect the core disciples and not others?”
The Goddess of Golden Spirit also said, “Even if there’s such a method, can we really use it? It’s too immoral.”
“Not exactly.”
Li Changshou smiled apologetically at the Goddess of Golden Spirit and said seriously, “Now that the Great Tribulation is ahead of us, we can’t even take care of ourselves. Most of the power of Jie School comes from the core disciples, but they were implicated by the disciples who had evil intentions. It’s just to suppress the light from providence and protect the core disciples. This is not against the other disciples.”
“Let’s not talk about whether we can do it or not.” Zhao Gongming sighed and said, “Even if we can do it, how can we do such a thing? If the disciples know about it, wouldn’t they feel disappointed?”
“Brother, you’ve seen the situation when the red lotus was broken.” Li Changshou’s eyes were filled with a threatening light. “Under the dignity of a Saint, there are so many negative karma! There must be a large number of disciples who deliberately came to Jie School to avoid the disaster and put the blame on Jie School! Aren’t they the ones who are going to settle the Great Tribulation?”
“But...”
“Junior Brother Changgeng,” the Goddess of Turtle Spirit asked softly, “Do you have any way to let the Chaos Bell only suppress the destiny of some core disciples?”
Li Changshou said, “Establish another sect. The core disciples of Jie School will use the Chaos Bell to suppress the fate of the new sect.”
“How can that do?” Zhao Gongming frowned. “If we establish a new sect, who will join and who won’t? How could those who did not enter be convinced? The teachings of Jie School are to intercept a chance of survival for the living beings of the world. If the Great Tribulation arrived and they needed that chance of survival, they would abandon most of the disciples... Is this still Jie School?”
“This is the only way to suppress your luck.”
“If that’s the case, I’d rather go with the entire Jie School to withstand the Great Tribulation.”
Li Changshou said firmly, “This matter needs to be decided by the Grandmaster of Heaven. Brother, don’t be so arbitrary.”
Zhao Gongming looked at his master. The hall immediately fell silent.
At that moment, Li Changshou suddenly realized that he had interfered too much in this matter.
He was not a member of Jie School, but he had a close relationship with Jie School. He was standing on the outside, and the “benefits” that he saw were focused on his friends and future Dao companions.
Indeed, he had reestablished another sect. He had used the Chaos Bell to protect the core disciples of Jie School and some of the disciples who were upright. He had used that to increase the possibility of surviving the Great Tribulation. He could operate it, but it was within the scope of the Heavenly Dao’s permission. It was equivalent to taking advantage of the loophole of the Great Tribulation.
However, that did not mean that Jie School did not care.
The atmosphere in Jie School...
“Changgeng, I know you mean well.”
The Grandmaster of Heaven turned around and smiled warmly at Li Changshou. The expression on his handsome face was full of emotions.
He said, “I’ll take the Chaos Bell first. After I return, I’ll gather the disciples to discuss this matter and let them choose whether to use this method. As the master, I did not consider it carefully and thus caused the Jie School to end up in such a state. By the way, does the Chaos Bell agree to this?”
“Sister Bell” looked at Li Changshou and her eyes lit up. She then looked at Zhao Gongming and the other disciples of Jie School and nodded.
“If we use this method, we won’t be injured. It’s fine to help you.”
Zhao Gongming lowered his head and sighed softly. He looked at his wide palm.
The Goddess of Golden Spirit walked over and gently held his arm. The two of them looked at each other and were speechless.
Li Changshou bowed to the Grandmaster of Heaven and said, “I spoke too much today. Uncle-Master, Senior Brother, and Senior Sister, please forgive me.”
He sighed softly and turned around to return to his corner. He sat there and closed his eyes to rest.
He could roughly guess what happened next.
He was also worried and thus became flustered. He should not have said that. As long as his current plan progressed steadily, it would not be difficult to protect Yun Xiao and his two sisters.
It was not appropriate to interfere too much.
The hall quickly fell silent. Li Changshou reminded the Golden Roc that the four Mei Generals had begun to sense the whereabouts of the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy.
The Connate Godfiend had been wandering at the edge of the Primordial World, as if he was waiting for Kun Peng’s response.
Unfortunately, Kun Peng’s essence soul had been completely locked by Li Changshou. In order to prevent Kun Peng from losing control, Li Changshou did not plan to let Kun Peng’s essence soul escape his control.
The Kun Peng was actually equivalent to having its soul destroyed. What remained was only the Ark of Kun Peng that Senior Lang had thought of and created.
Not far from the border of the Heavenly Dao, Kun Peng began to change its direction.
In the hall, the Chaos Bell had also reached a temporary reconciliation with the Grandmaster of Heaven, allowing him to undo the restrictions on it.
It was a Connate Cardinal treasure after all. It had opened the world, suppressed the Magihumans, and killed two Magi. Since it had said that it would not run, it naturally would not run. Dharma treasures were also prideful.
However, the Chaos Bell flew near Li Changshou on its own and revealed the woman who had condensed a spiritual body. She walked around Li Changshou leisurely and seemed to want to hit on him.
Li Changshou smiled warmly and continued to look at the Taiji Painting and the book.
A few days passed.
“Hey, what are you reading?”
“Sister Bell” asked softly, “Why don’t you talk to me? Do you think that I’m not capable because I was restrained too easily by you?”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior, you must be joking. No one will doubt your abilities.”
“Then why don’t you get closer to me?” Sister Bell blinked. “It’s really strange. I avoided the Primordial World because I didn’t want to be snatched away by others. Why are you guys so eager to toss me around like I’m a hot potato?”
“Although treasures are good, they have to be blessed.” Li Changshou closed the book in his hand and suddenly thought of something. However, he quickly dispelled that thought.
The time was not right. Moreover, it was not appropriate for him to get too close to the Chaos Bell.
Li Changshou said, “Senior, you can protect me. However, I don’t just want to be safe. It’s not that I’m unwilling, but the situation doesn’t allow it. However, if you like to stay here, Senior, I won’t make you feel cold. Why don’t we become friends and become confidantes? That is, when we are in the Primordial World, we should try our best not to interact with each other. The Heavenly Dao will always watch us.”
“Friends?”
“Sister Bell” tilted her head and smiled. “You are really a rare living being. The other living beings are all clamoring that I can’t control the heavens and fight with the Heavenly Dao to obtain opportunities. Why are you so... respectful to the Heavenly Dao?”
“It’s probably because of my personality.” Li Changshou shrugged. “In the Primordial World, the thoughts of ordinary living beings can be affected by the Heavenly Dao. Even the most basic right to choose life and death has been stripped away. How can I compete with the Heavenly Dao? I feel that my life is not in the hands of the heavens.”
“What is it controlled by then?”
“Desire.”
Li Changshou stopped and did not say anything else. He lowered his head and continued to read while holding the scroll. He allowed “Sister Bell” to tilt its head.
...
After spending another half a year, they found traces of the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy.
The Grandmaster of Heaven did not hide. He held the Qingping Sword and rushed forward. In a few moments, he ruthlessly cut the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy and trapped his spiritual core.
Then, the Grandmaster of Heaven brought the Chaos Bell and his disciples back to the Primordial World in advance. Li Changshou and the Golden Roc stayed behind and began to clean up the remnants of the otherworldly demons.
When the Chaos Bell left, it specially asked Li Changshou where he lived in the Primordial World. Li Changshou smiled and did not answer.
On second thought, if the Chaos Bell really went to the Heavenly Courts to look for him, how should he deal with it?
Actually, it was not a big deal.
He had previously said that the Heavenly Dao would suspect and target him if he took the Chaos Bell. That was naturally an exaggeration.
If the Chaos Bell could really resist the Heavenly Dao, why did the East Emperor Tai Yi die? Why was the Demon Court defeated by the human race?
After all, it was just a treasure. No matter how powerful and mystical it was, it could not resist the Dao Ancestor.
The game with the Heavenly Dao was about the general trend and rules.
If he still harbored the thought of gathering more treasures and being able to stand tall in front of the Heavenly Dao, he would not be able to go far in the Primordial World.
Not far from the Primordial World, Li Changshou was not in a hurry.
He had indeed done a good job of keeping it a secret this time. He had also arranged for Long Ji to transform into him and reveal herself in the Great White Hall. The Primordial World did not fall into chaos because of his temporary departure.
The Western Sect could no longer be unstable. They did not want to lose any power before the killing tribulation.
Even when Li Changshou used the Taiji Painting to observe Ksitigarbha’s Reincarnation Pagoda, he did not find any traces of Maitreya.
The Eldest Senior Brother of the spiritual mountain seemed to have disappeared.
In the past few decades, the lives of the living beings in the Primordial World had mostly been lost in the trichiliocosm.
According to his development plan, the Heaven Ascension Hall, which had already developed to a certain scale, began to pressure the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom from the side, breaking the balance of power between the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom and the Immortal Alliance.
The Immortal Alliance also received a huge wave of help from the Heavenly Courts. They secretly contacted the Heaven Ascension Hall and formed an “ally” to attack the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom.
The expedition army that the Heavenly Courts had sent into the trichiliocosm also changed their leisurely style and fought continuously.
The Western Sect’s power in the trichiliocosm quickly withered.
Under Li Changshou’s control, the so-called Three Thousand Buddhist Kingdom could be considered dead.
After bidding farewell to the Grandmaster of Heaven, Li Changshou hid in the Chaos Sea for three years.
Li Changshou held Senior Lang’s notebook and studied the Connate Godfiend’s Spirit Core. He understood the form of the existence of many True Spirits.
The otherworldly demon was actually part of his “X’s Disappearance” plan.
Therefore, Li Changshou did not destroy it directly. Instead, he used a secret technique to control it and handed it to the Golden Roc to let him take it back to the Heavenly Courts to suppress it.
In the past three years, the four Mei Generals had been praying on the Golden Roc’s back. They had attracted countless otherworldly demons and slowly purified the dark living beings.
Li Changshou easily obtained a good Heavenly Fiend army.
He spent another few years and placed the good Heavenly Fiends in a few “strongholds” outside the influence of the Heavenly Dao. He used the “legacy” left behind by Kun Peng.
Li Changshou made a few small arrangements in the Chaos Sea to let Kun Peng fly away from the Chaos slightly. Only then did he hide in the Golden Roc’s sleeve and use the Taiji Painting to conceal himself.
Although he did not gain much from this trip, it gave Li Changshou a chance to be more stable.
As for the discussion between Jie School and whether the Chaos Bell was used or not, he could not interfere.
They wanted to save their fellow clansmen and return to the Primordial Heavenly Courts.
The Golden Roc had made a huge contribution by escorting the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy’s Spirit Core back.
Li Changshou had naturally prepared a script long ago. After the Golden Roc returned to the Heavenly Courts, he told the story of a battle of wits and courage with a Connate Godfiend.
He did not say anything along the way.
When the Golden Roc’s shadow returned to the Xuandu City, Li Changshou looked at the sleeping Great Daoist Master and secretly greeted Kong Xuan. He picked up Ao Yi, who was guarding the “signal transit station” and returned to the Primordial World.
Calculating the time, there were still more than two hundred years left in the original God-Conferment script.
If Di Xin’s birth was used as a node, it would have been less than 150 years.
Li Changshou naturally did not idle on the way back. He repeatedly reviewed his various plans. In the end, he was still a little worried.
That was because no matter how he deduced, the Great God-Conferment Tribulation could not avoid the battle between Saints.
That was not a situation that he could control.
Moreover, no matter how muddle-headed Emperor Xin was, how could he do that to Goddess Nuwa’s jade statue in the mortal world of the South Continent?
If it was not because of the calamity, someone must have secretly caused trouble.
Also, the arrow that Nezha shot out was very strange.
He could not tell why Ling Zhuzi reincarnated.
I’m 80% sure that the Great God-Conferment Tribulation has chosen a hellish difficulty and is about to compete with the Saints.
Li Changshou secretly rubbed his eyebrows.
At this point, he could only face the difficulty.
During the God-Conferment Tribulation, he was no longer just passively accepting and fishing others out. He also had to use such a huge tribulation to obtain more “capital” to escape unscathed.
Under what circumstances can the Heavenly Dao not attack me?
After his master’s accident, Li Changshou had been thinking about that problem.
From afar, the five continents of the Primordial World were already in sight.
Li Changshou used the Qi Viewing Technique to look at the mysterious world from afar.
His expression changed. The small human that he had transformed into suddenly stood up from the golden roc’s sleeve. That scene appeared in his heart.
A blood-red sword floated above the five continents. The hilt of the sword was wrapped in black Qi. A strange phenomenon of living beings screaming appeared on the sword blade. It was already suspended in the sky above the five continents...
The killing tribulation manifestation, the hatred of the human race!
