2025全新合集大公開【師兄啊師兄 Big Brother】宗门最苟弟子的生存指南!师兄的“苟命108式”大公开! #BigBrother #chineseanime

Yuwen Ling is now an immortal. Even if his body is restrained, maybe he has other spells. I still need to be careful. Deal with this person first. Let the primordial spirit out, and all the electricity break the soul. This is… [Big Brother] Die! Even if I burn out my soul, I will die with you . No. No matter how good your spells and strategies are, you are still not an immortal after all. As long as the primordial spirit returns to my body, I can reincarnate. Block the primordial spirit. All immortals fade away. The primordial spirit fragments will dissipate soon in the Dementor Orb. Crisis lifted. After all, it is the Xianjie Herb that can poison immortals to death. Better to be careful. Keep the roots of medicine to maintain good fortune. Finally got it. One last step. The ceremonial step of soul-releasing needs to be done by myself. This is bewitched worm of love. A bit closer. As long as I cast it on her… A precise blow. Why didn’t you resist? Even a villain like you will have a little repentance? Or were you forced to do so? Junior Youdu can even comfort herself. I will skip the soul-releasing. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain to the fellows. Next, I have to unify my statement with Youdu. The innate weapon of Yuwen Ling was shattered. So he’s dead? It seemed that he died together with the snake. There is not even a corpse left. Beijulu Continent is full of poisonous insects and herbs. Could Changshou also be. ..? Yuan Qing is also dead? The fatal injury was caused by Lotus Fire Power of Potian Peak. It’s Xuanya. There are only traces of the two of them fighting here. The thread of Two-eyed Three-headed Spider. There was a third person. This person hid in the dark, and saw things with a spider’s thread. He’s with careful thought and can’t be taken slightly. [Episode 7] Your Majesty. Duxian’s disciples went too far that trespassed on the East Sea Coast, and injured most of our army’s shrimp monsters . Your Majesty, please seek justice for us. [Ao Yi , Dragon Prince] Father. Nowadays, the Dao of Heaven is thriving the Human. And there are saints behind the Taoism. We’d better not be enemies of them. Your Highness . The Dragon is the blood of the ancient overlord Ancestor Dragon, who guards the seas for the world. How can we be afraid of them? I think it necessary to show them who is the real owner of the East Sea. What the general said makes sense. It’s up to you. Thanks to you this time , I was able to escape the siege of Yuan Qing and Yuwen Ling and survive. [Level 9 of God Transforming] [Level 4 of Virtual Refining] My cultivation is low, and I only know some escape methods. I didn’t help you much in the battle against Yuan Qing. And Yuwen Ling died together with the Three-eyed Green Wave Snake. You really don’t have to thank me. Well. I’d like to ask you one thing. Please go ahead. I will try my best. Not that serious. I’ve always been afraid of trouble and didn’t want to attract attention. Please don’t mention anything related to me when you report back to the master. Never drag me into the storm. Only by keeping a low profile can I avoid cause and effect. [Expect nothing in return] [Modesty of gentleman] [Role model of the immortal sect] It would be a worthwhile trip if I could become a close friend with a gentleman like you. Don’t worry, senior. I got it. You really did? I can never understand Youdu’s mind. Something’s up. Have the immortals sent to rescue arrived? Here they are. Xuanya is over there with Changshou. Li Changshou, who had been missing all this time, happens to be with Youqin Xuanya. Could it be a coincidence? Changshou! Changshou! You are the only disciple of Xiaoqiong Peak. If anything happens to you. .. We still have Ling’e. You are the only two disciples of Xiaoqiong Peak. Master, how are you? Never mind. Something went wrong when I was breaking through the catastrophe. Master’s Dao foundation is too damaged, and it is his luck to survive. How could he survive the catastrophe? Seniors. I accidentally killed Yuan Qing, and I am willing to accept all punishments. Master is generous and caring. And senior Jiu Jiu has always been casual. They will surely forgive Youdu’s over- defense. But I’m not sure about that one. You killed Yuan Qing alone? What about Yuwen Ling? Does his death have anything to do with you? Jiu Wu is senior Jiu Jiu’s senior, a well-known deacon in the sect. His cultivation base is now at the peak of Real Immortal Realm. He’s deep and shrewd and should be dealt with carefully. Yuwen Ling alarmed the Three-eyed Green Wave Snake during the sneak attack, and both sides died together. Good. Just like this . Leave me alone. No one helped you secretly? It has nothing to do with senior Changshou. He saw that I was under siege and used escapism to help me out of danger. Everything is my fault. Youdu, please shut up. You are making it worse. Aren’t you going to justify her? I don’t know the details, so I dare not say more. You are quite steady. It is a serious crime for Xuanya to kill the fellow disciple. After returning, the deputy head will make a fair ruling. It just seems that she still has a helper in the dark, spying with the spider silk of the Two-eyed Three-headed spider. Coincidentally, there are some of the same spider silk nearby. My negligence. Silk of three pigs? What’s that? The Two -eyed Three-headed spider’s eyesight is impressive in all directions, without any blind spots, and its spider silk can make the sight as far as thousands of miles away. Are you doubting Changshou? If he hadn’t saved Xuanya, my team would have been wiped out. Calm down, Jiu. I’m just making a routine inquiry. Senior Jiu Wu. My disciple is honest, afraid of death, and never causes trouble. These are his three great strengths. I hope you will check this matter. I’m not skilled enough, so I had to use spider silk to find the way and avoid risks. Unexpectedly, I ran into junior Youqin being coerced by the wicked, so I took her away. Find the way? What was your plan? Collect herbs. I swear to the Dao of Heaven for this. It’s just that I collected Xianjie Herb, a banned drug in sect. Collect herbs? I thought you had some secret. After all, Two-eyed Three-headed spiders are quite rare. He didn’t reveal anything. Witnessed by the power of Dao of Heaven, I think he is telling the truth. I need to increase senior Jiu Wu’s trust in me first, so that I can do what he likes and earn favorable impression. I have raised several litters of Two-eyed Three-headed spiders. Senior Jiu Wu, if you are interested, I would give you some when we go back. Thank you then. Good for you. Let’s get more in touch with each other. He acts thoughtfully and keeps a low profile. If he is following the right way, he can take on great responsibilities after being cultivated. But if not, he has to be eliminated as soon as possible to prevent endless disasters. I temporarily dispelled senior Jiu Wu’s doubts. You are so mean. Just keep a few of your spiders with yourself and send the rest to senior Jiu Wu. Yes. I’m not careful enough in the trip to Beijulu Continent. The spider silk wasn’t handled cleanly enough, and the means to deal with immortals were not enough. I wonder what happened to junior in the East Sea. I said Changshou is a good kid. By the way, senior Qi Yuan, please treat him. He seems to have caught by the soul-keeper. Soul-keeper? No! Is the senior also going crazy? I see. Anyone with “Jiu” in their name is outrageous. [Big Brother] Master. Are we back to Xiaoqiong Peak? There is something wrong with your mental state during this experience. Fortunately, it is not serious. Master has not yet become an immortal, so he can’t find out my real situation. And I can still hide it. How do they plan to deal with junior Youqin after hearing about the experience? The deputy head understood that Xuanya was forced by a traitor, and only punished her to reflect on herself for two years. Senior. Are you injured? I asked you to take care of senior, not to disturb him. In the next few days, take a good rest and try to calm your mind. In this way, I can retreat with peace of mind. Master, are you breaking through the catastrophe again? I am the only peak master who has not become an immortal among all the peaks, and I feel guilty for the ancestors of Xiaoqiong Peak. I have to fight with all my strength before my longevity is exhausted. It’s said that the catastrophe is a matter of life and death. What if…? Since ancient times, when seeking immortality and getting through calamity, no one has ever had full confidence in surviving the catastrophe. Only 10% to 20% of cultivators can survive the catastrophe. What’s more, the master’s Dao foundation was damaged in the early years, his cultivation base isn’t stable, and his immortal soul is weaker than that of ordinary cultivators. If he went to cross the catastrophe like this, he would definitely die. If I can’t survive the catastrophe, everything of Xiaoqiong Peak will be left to you. Master. Senior and I will definitely take good care of Xiaoqiong Peak. Rest in peace. Nuts! Don’t curse me! What if I really die? I’m getting old. What did I just say? Anyway, I am leaving. Senior, Master.. . We have to help him to survive the catastrophe. The catastrophe is an unavoidable experience and tribulation for all Qi cultivators. The Dao of Heaven will cast thunders of variable strength according to to the aptitude of the cultivators when they start to practice. If they survive , they will become an immortal. If not, they will disappear completely. How many times can Master withstand such terrifying thunders? According to Master’s current situation… [Dead ] After that, it’s just the two of us who depend on together. Are you really sad or pretending to be? That’s why I ventured to Beijulu Continent. Only by finding it can we win life for Master under the catastrophe. Xianjie Herb? Isn ‘t this something highly poisonous that can poison immortals to death? Right. But as long as Xianjie Herb is refined, it can be turned into a fake death medicine Immortal-melting Pill. to deceive the catastrophe. [Program for assisting the master to survive the catastrophe (latest revision)] Theoretically, after the cultivator takes the first thunder, he will produce a ray of fairy breath. If he takes the Immortal-melting Pill at this time to feign death and dissolve his body, he will be able to escape the follow-up thunders and turn into a turbid immortal. Although his supernatural power will not be as good as that of a normal immortal, the lifespan will be the same and he can still practice upwards. [Congratulations to become an immortal] We have to successfully refine the Immortal-melting Pill before Master’s catastrophe arrives. In this way, the chances of him surviving will be high. Wow, senior, you are so great. Master salvation operation. Action. Senior is so level-headed. [Episode 8] The frequency of Master’s exits is quite high recently. It is so difficult for him in retreat, and it will only be more dangerous for him to go through catastrophe. We have to step up the refining of the Immortal-melting Pill . Master is so stubborn. If he knows that we refine forbidden pills to help him… So he can’t know about this. Not only him, no one must know it. After we get the pill furnace, we will set up a formation outside the alchemy room to prevent leakage of secrets. Don’t you have one pill furnace? The level of that pill furnace is too low to refine advanced poison pills like Immortal-melting Pills. According to my investigation, Elder Wan Linyun of Danding Peak has a Poison Gold Stove, which is the most suitable. Wan Linyun? What a familiar name. Wan Linyun is the author of the book Poison Classics, who is good at refining poison. [Wan Linyun, Danding Peak] It is said that he is usually unreasonable and extremely stingy, making it difficult to make friends with him. Elder Wan Linyun, a master of poison refining, is very interested in various poison making methods. Ling’e, are you hiding something from me? No. Speaking of Elder Wan, I have to thank you. If you hadn’t used the Soul-breaking Pills he created on the East Sea Coast, I wouldn’t have been able to get close to him. Of course. I have used up all the Soul-breaking Pills you gave me. The fellow disciples were all stunned. Lan Ling’e! Although I asked you to use Soul-breaking Pills to make friends with Elder Wan, I didn’t ask you to use up all of them. What a prodigal junior! Senior, you fooled me . Senior, Elder Wan is coming. How to refine Soul-breaking Pills? Elder Wan . Take three liang of blood from the heart of spirit fox, four liang of Miwu Soul-breaking Herbs, two liang of Hongyu Herbs and a little water from Feizhai. If the budget is only twenty spirit stones, how to refine them? What a scary atmosphere. For the ultimate stingy grade test, test-taking tip one… Look for similarities and lower the defenses. Since he is stingy, I will be even more stingy than him. Four liang of Miwu Soul-breaking Herbs will be replaced by five liang of normal ones. Ten spirit stones. No need to spend spirit stones. I have a good relationship with Presbyter Ge of Baifan Hall, and I can exchange Xiaoqiong Peak’s spirit fish for his five liang of Soul-breaking Herbs. It also takes money to raise spirit fish. My junior is raising them. It’s not my expense. That’s right. It’s me. The blood from the heart of spirit fox will be replaced by its dung. Hongyu Herbs can be obtained after 100,000 years of cultivation. Feizhai water can be obtained by pickling old shoes and dog urine. You don’t need to spend a single spirit stone, but you can cultivate a Soul-breaking Pill in 100,000 years. Is Elder Wan angry? 100,000 years? Changshou, how could you be so stingy? Test-taking tip two. Deliberately show weakness to build empathy. I never knew my senior was so frugal. You used the old pill furnace to refine the Soul-breaking Pills for me. But I splurged on them all over the East Sea Coast. It’s all my fault! It doesn’t matter if my life is miserable, as long as you are well. Senior! What a close attachment. Elder Wan didn’t say a word. Did he see through us? Keep calm. Play to the score. I’m still not as frugal as you. No! The legendary irony. I didn’t find out that Elder Wan was so sarcastic. It seems that the information I have collected isn’t complete enough. You live such a poor life, but you have a squandering junior, which makes your hard life even worse. It’s all over. Poison Gold Stove is gone. And so will Master be. I am ashamed. What does Elder Wan mean? No idea . What does he mean? This is Poison Gold Stove. Unexpectedly, we really moved Elder Wan. More than that. The senior said that Elder Wan was deeply saddened and sympathetic to our situation. It’s hard for Changshou. Alright. It’s time to show you the real Poison Gold Stove. Where are they? You wasted poison pills. I should teach you a lesson. Eleven. Twelve. Thirteen. Senior, I can’t make it anymore! One. Young people are really energetic. [Big Brother] Three-dimensional composite combination formation . This is the original formation that I have carefully prepared for sixty years. Different from the horizontal distribution of the mainstream formations, this formation is criss-crossed and interlocking, and can even deal with immortals of the Real Immortal Realm. Senior, isn’ t the power of the formation related to the cultivation of the builder? Neither of us is a real immortal, how can we trap them? So we need a real immortal to help, preferably one who doesn’t understand formations. Jiu Jiu. Real Immortal Realm. [Formation] She doesn’t understand formations, and is the ninth apprentice of Immortal Wangqing at Potian Peak. Together with her seniors, they are called Nine Immortals of Jiu. Jiu Jiu was brought up by Jiu Wu and his wife among them. From fellows to a couple… What are you thinking about? Jiu Wu, the key target of this operation. He was suspicious of me when we were in Beijulu Continent. If I rashly go to Jiu Jiu, it will definitely arouse his suspicion. So we have to think of a way to lure senior Jiu Wu away. Jiu Wu is insidious and cunning, and ordinary methods cannot deal with him . Recently, Jiu Jiu was upset about being punished to quit drinking, and couldn’t sleep every day. Every morning she acts like a baby to Jiu Wu. Jiu Wu could do nothing about it. We might as well count the time… Ling ‘e, Jiu Jiu is needed for the formation and refining Immortal-melting Pill. Go for Jiu Wu. Only success, no failure. Senior Jiu Wu, please. I want to help. But my orders here have been reserved for five hundred years later. But Xiaoqiong Peak really needs a real immortal to guide the formation. Real immortal only! Real immortal! How could I possibly get you one? Senior, I want wine. Real immortal… She’s a real immortal! Go for her! Senior, save my master! – Save my master. – I want wine! I want wine! I want wine! This is called Jiaren Wine. It has the smell of alcohol but not the fumes of wine. It will make people feel drunk, but not break a precept. Senior, what do you think? Isn’t it just formation? I’m a genius in formation. Senior Jiu Jiu is totally drunk. Look at me! Help, senior. One step forward to Zhen. Six steps back to Dui. Four steps back to Kan. Two steps forward to Li. Cutting down trees as a cover to prevent being discovered by Master? I think he just wants to be alone with senior Jiu Jiu. [Real scene] Bad senior. Break! Young people are really full of vim and vigour. [Two years later] Done . Senior, show me the formation. Thanks to senior Jiu Jiu’s immortal power to stabilize the formation’s foundation, my conception of the formation was finally implemented. The formation has been built. It’s time to refine the Immortal-melting Pill. But how can senior Jiu Jiu refine the Immortal-melting without knowing it? Didn’t she also create this three-dimensional composite combination formation without knowing how to form it? Where is the Life Gate? The formation and the like are really annoying! Up. Don’ t worry. Leave the Yuan-cultivating Pills to me. With Jiu’s ability, it is absolutely impossible to build such a formation. Since someone knows how to build formations at Xiaoqiong Peak, why do they need Jiu’s help? [Two years ago] Senior Liu. Are you going to Xiaoqiong Peak? Elder Wan asked me to send a pill furnace to Xiaoqiong Peak. Formation. Pill furnace . Li Changshou, what are you up to? [Episode 9] The order of adding the medicinal materials, the year of the medicinal materials and even the shape and size of the pieces [Summary of Alchemy Notes] and even the shape and size of the pieces have all been done precisely. As long as the senior can give stable and pure immortal power support, the success rate of Immortal-melting Pills can be improved. Senior Jiu Jiu doesn’t know the way of medicine, so she can’ t identify the banned Immortal-melting Pills from the medicinal materials. But senior Jiu Wu is proficient in alchemy. Once he finds out, it will be difficult to end. It seems that I have to stop him outside before the pills are refined. The breeze dissolves the talisman, and the eight gates are fully displayed. I found the exit of the formation. It’s just a basic maze. One basic maze naturally couldn’t trap senior Jiu Wu who majored in formations. But what if there are hundreds or thousands? I’m still in the formation? It seems that this is a chain formation. This time it’s Lingyue Six-turn Formation. The life gate is usually located in a certain wind hole. The direction of the wind hole corresponds to the six stars of Sagittarius. Tianfu, Tianliang, Tianji, Tiantong, Tianxiang, Qisha. The stars are divided into four directions, which located at Qisha. How many basic mazes are there in total? Although I temporarily trapped senior Jiu Wu, if I delay him for too long, it will definitely deepen his suspicion of me. The top priority now is to refine the Immortal-melting Pills as soon as possible. These twenty-four arrays are interconnected. I was back where I was. Good for you. I don’t believe I can’t get out of your little chain formation. It’s definitely correct this time. No way. It doesn’t make sense. I’m a real immortal! I will just blast away the formation! It’s broken so easily. Immortal-melting Pills are done. These are Yuan-cultivating Pills? I’ d like to see what you are doing here. Shoushou. Isn’t this how Shishi and I called each other when we were deep in love? Are they dating? Did you forget something? How can I explain this to Shishi? Right now, I can only go back and admit my mistake. He’s finally left. Fortunately, when refining the Immortal-melting Pills, I removed the formation in time, which prevented the maze from turning into a killing formation and exposed more of my hole cards. We ‘ve agreed that after refining the Yuan-cultivating Pills, you will give me Jiaren Wines enough for a year. Don’t worry. In addition to these , after your one-year abstinence period is over, I will give you the Ganges River Laobaigan that I buried. And if you need any help in the future, just come to me. Senior. If anyone asked you what you had been doing here in these days, please… [Big Brother] Shishi. Actually it’s time for Jiu to find a partner. Look, at least he can clean up the room for her. [Jiu Shi, Potian Peak] Why should Jiu rely on others ? What’s more, she is only nine hundred and sixty-two years, six months and fifteen days old. Seniors, why are you here? My retreat is just over. So I come to see you with your senior. Jiu, did you. ..? Jiu, why do you always go to Xiaoqiong Peak? To set up formations for alchemy. In return, Shoushou gave me some nice things that could replace wine. Bingo. Anyway, what senior Jiu Jiu knew is limited. Letting her tell the truth should clear up today’s misunderstanding. As for Immortal-melting Pills… Although they are done , the premise of taking this medicine is that Master has to survive the first thunder. The date of crossing the catastrophe is approaching. Master goes out frequently and his mood swings. What if… [Physics] [Physics Grade Eight Volume 1] So another purpose of you asking me to cut down the trees is to complete the second plan for crossing the catastrophe… This… Faraday… Faye cage. Don’t underestimate my achievements in the nine-year compulsory education. It has its own magical effect when the Master is crossing the catastrophe. From this point of view, Master crossing the catastrophe this time will be safe for sure. Is this Master’s catastrophe? Master is not in the mountains. He left without saying goodbye. He must have left with the determination to die. Ling’e. Let’s go find the Master. We have to give him the Immortal-melting Pills and Faye cage. Master! Get away! If you are hit by the lightning, you will disappear completely. Ling’e. Wait here for me. Senior. Master will come back alive, right? Yes. I promise. Master. Changshou, my catastrophe is approaching. Why are you here? Go back. I have a way to help you cross the catastrophe. I know my situation well. Take Ling’e back now. From now on, Xiaoqiong Peak will be left to you. I have begged several acquaintances to help you when they have time. Master has determined to die, and Dao of Heaven will definitely think that his mind is unstable. I’m afraid he can’t even get through the first thunder. I told you to go back! You are usually so cautious. The thunder is unusually powerful. With your cultivation base, one blow will definitely kill you. If so, how can I rest in peace? And what about Ling’e? Who will take care of your junior? Master, you have nurtured and taught me for a hundred years, guided me into the immortality and have never been harsh for many years. The only thing I can do for you now is to earn a chance of living for you under the catastrophe. You… Why are you doing this? Excuse me, how to get to Duxian? Thank you. Wait. To be honest, although this thundercloud has a sense of oppression, it is not prestige of Heaven. So it wasn’t Master’s catastrophe just now? It’s my first time crossing the catastrophe, so I have no experience. Just an oolong event. It’s clearly a cyan dragon, not oolong. Oolong is black. Judging from the temperament of that cyan dragon, its cultivation must have reached the Celeste Realm. The Dragon has always lived in seclusion in the deep sea and has little contact with the Human. Now they sent such a master to Duxian. I ‘m afraid something will happen. We’d better be careful. [Episode 10] Stop! This is Duxian’s territory. Don’t trespass. Enemy attack. All disciples, gather together! Follow me to defend the enemy. Something happened to the clan. Let’s go back for reinforcements. Why is the Dragon taking actions so soon? I am the Navy Vanguard of the East Sea Dragon Palace. I’m here by the King’s order. The person in charge of Duxian, get out to receive the order. Form an array. How dare you act wildly in Duxian just after becoming a Celestial Immortal? Do you want to die? Master. Grandmaster. Immortal Wangqing. Wangqing… [Immortal Wangqing, Potian Peak] Are you the lord of Duxian? I’m just a free cultivator of Duxian. Seeing that you are so rude, I came out to teach you a lesson. How dare you! Even the primordial spirit is on fire. Immortal Wangqing’s Ternary Fire Technique is really amazing. If I can learn part of it, it will be of great help to both alchemy and physical fitness. Human’s Ternary Fire is so powerful. His spells are unfathomable. You should understand that it’s no longer the era for the Dragon to oppress all clans. Ever since the Ancestor Dragon set off a disaster of war and shattered the prehistoric world, you have been plagued by karma. I advise you to stop where you should and get back on the right track. What a sanctimonious Duxian. You first broke into the East Sea Coast under the banner of elimination demons, hurting our navy, and now you are so disrespectful to the Dragon. I will definitely ask the Dragon King to gather the troops and crush you. East Sea Coast? Immortal Wangqing. During the experience of subduing demons before, Xiaoqiong Peak’s disciple Lan Ling’e injured some shrimp demons to protect the companions. Xiaoqiong Peak? The mentor of senior Changshou. Senior, did I get into trouble? Where is he? Why did the shrimp demons become the East Sea Navy? Something’s wrong. Senior. Duxian will definitely find out the cause of the crime of accidentally injuring the East Sea Navy, and try our best to pay it back. It’s just that the East Sea Coast is the junction of five continents, shared by all clans. Why did you say breaking in? The Dragon Palace has guarded the East Sea for so long that the cultivators of Human forgot that the Dragon had designated the East Sea as its territory in ancient times. The East Sea Coast also belongs to the Dragon. How could the Human set foot on it at will? The Dragon King decreed to hold the East Sea Conference three days later. The ownership of East Sea Coast will be decided by then. If the Dragon occupies the East Sea Coast, they will completely control the traffic fortress leading to the five continents, which can deter all clans. I am afraid that everything from the chaos of the shrimp demons to holding a conference is the strategy of the Dragon. The Dragon has lived as a recluse for many years. Since they are making a big fuss this time, I’m afraid it won’t end easily. Now that your mission is completed, I’m not going to see you off. [Big Brother] Immortal Wangqing is worthy of being the sword cultivator with the most combat power in Potian Peak. The strong are so majestic. If I succeed in crossing the catastrophe, will I be like this one day? Master. Master’s lightning catastrophe is coming. We have to go back to Xiaoqiong Peak now to start the lightning-protection plan. How terrible the coercion is. I can’t resist at all. This is the great power of heaven. Someone is going to cross the catastrophe. Stay away from here. Be careful to be hit by the catastrophe and disappear together with the cultivation. The catastrophe clouds are in the direction of Xiaoqiong Peak. Could it be …? Senior Qi Yuan. His foundation is damaged. How can he defeat the thunders? Senior, this time is a real catastrophe, right? According to the area and thickness of the clouds, there are about four thunders. So many?! The thunders are about to fall. Leave me alone! Go back! Why are you locking me up? What’s this? A magic weapon against thunder called Faye Cage. Master, stay inside. Don’t move around or touch the fence. Go, don’t waste your time. Thunder will not be blocked by any magic weapon. Mr. Faraday, scientific lightning protection depends on you. It worked! I’m fine. Thunder also disappeared. The cage is so amazing. What to do? The Faye Cage is ruined. It’s good enough for it to block the first thunder. Next, as long as the master takes the pill, he will be able to survive the catastrophe safely. Why doesn’t Master have the slightest immortal breath ? Could it be because he didn’t bear the catastrophe head-on? No! Without immortal power, the moment Master takes Immortal-melting Pill, both his body and spirit will be destroyed. The catastrophe should have been borne by those who crossed the catastrophe alone, and there is no room for opportunism. I will bear the rest of the thunder myself. The immortal breath appeared. Master, I have precious medicine that can help you overcome the catastrophe. Don’t waste it. Save it for you and Ling’e when you cross the catastrophe. Master! Your foundation hasn’t been repaired, and it is your limit to bear two thunders in a row. Don’t force yourself. Forget about the foundation. Since it’s my destiny, I am willing to fight to the death. Dao of Heaven, I will never beg for mercy on the ground. My disciples were watching. Even if their master is useless and cannot protect his disciples like Immortal Wangqing, I will die standing up and give them the last glory. This is the spirit of the cultivator of the Human, and also my heart for Taoism. No! Master is trying to die in the cause of justice. Changshou. Ling’e and I worked so hard to refine the precious pill just for you to survive. What are you doing? Step aside! You have raised and educated me for a hundred years, and I have regarded you as my parent. As a son, how can I watch my close kin disappear? Master, survive for us! I will try my best to fight once. Come on. Show me the last thunder. Why did I melt away? Taoist Ancestor. What’s going on? The calamity is impermanent, but the heart is firm and resolute. Even the heaven and the earth will be summed up in your nature. [Episode 11] Come on. Show me the last thunder. Senior Qi Yuan! Master… Wait. Hold on. Melting the body makes the primordial spirit become an immortal. How to achieve this? Get rid of the body to achieve success. It is the body transfer method. After that, one would become a turbid immortal. Although the cultivation level of turbid immortal is far inferior to that of a normal immortal, and the highest level is only Real Immortal Realm, judging by junior Qi Yuan’s loss of foundation, this is indeed the only way to survive the catastrophe. Congratulations to junior Qi Yuan. Great. Immortal-melting Pill. Immortal Zhongyu, Immortal Wangqing. The matter of eliminating demons in the East Sea has been figured out. Back then, there were indeed shrimp monsters who were causing trouble. Junior Liu led his disciples to remove the monsters. Lan Ling’e used the Soul-breaking Pill to severely damage the shrimp monsters. There was no one else present, let alone the so-called Dragon Palace Navy. I got her wrong. It has been two years since we eliminated monsters in the East Sea. Why did they just agree on the East Sea Conference now? It can be seen that the division of East Sea Coast is just an excuse. They don’t want land. I heard that there are rebels in Dragon Palace recently. They are holding the East Sea Conference now to show majesty and establish an image of hegemony. Right. The trip to the East Sea won’t be peaceful. Jiu Wu. Pick a team of great disciples to go with us. By then, those who perform well will be rewarded with the cheats of Potian Peak. Got it. Duxian is inherited from the Sutra of Inaction. [Sutra of Inaction] And one can be rewarded with the cheats of Potian Peak. . How is it? Would you like to go to the East Sea Conference? If I can get Ternary Fire , it will really be of great benefit to me to overcome the tribulation. I’m still young in practice, and I’m afraid I’ll disappoint your kindness. You are way too humble. I know you are good at refining poison. What’s the pill you refined for Ling’e before? – Soul-breaking Pill. – Immortal-melting Pill. If I’m right , you first went to Beijulu Continent to find the important raw material of Immortal-melting Pill. You also obtained Elder Wan’s Poison Gold Stove by some trick. In the end you tricked Jiu into refining it for you. Am I right? This.. . Senior, what to do? Think of a way. Sure enough, I can never hide it from senior . I did refine the Immortal-melting Pill. – Senior… – I did refine the Immortal-melting Pill. Senior. This is my alchemy note, in which the formula and refining process of Immortal-melting Pill are recorded in detail. Due to my master’s damaged foundation, I couldn’t bear to see him die in a catastrophe, so I took the risk to refine banned pill. [Alchemy note] Done. Senior Jiu Wu knows it all. Is this the peace before the storm? No! It’s so suffocating! Senior. Senior. Did he have an epiphany? Level 6 of Virtual Refining. Good for you. I had an epiphany again? What’s going on? Forget it. I can let go of the Immortal-melting Pill . But you have to go to the East Sea Conference. This… Otherwise, I will punish you for the crime of refining banned pill. Got it. Senior, what happened? The main ingredient of Immortal-melting Pill is the head of Three-eyed Green Wave Snake? I deliberately gave the wrong alchemy note to senior Jiu Wu. So he concluded that I didn’t manage to refine the real Immortal-melting Pill. What about the epiphany just now? The epiphany is real. But the cultivation is false. [Big Brother] The East Sea Conference held by the Dragon Palace is mainly to make a big fuss about the event of eliminating monsters in the East Sea. As the accompanying disciples, you need to fight for the treasure with the disciples of the Dragon Palace in the way of defending and attacking. By then, the Dragon Palace will definitely find a chance to make things difficult . You are the ones with the highest cultivation level or the most vigilant among the current disciples, so you need to deal with it calmly and maintain the demeanor of Human Taoism. – Yes. – Yes. Changshou. I recently heard that a folk remedy that can cure inside demon. Thank you senior for your kindness. My inside demon has been lasting for years. I’m afraid that… I haven’t said anything yet. What if it works? Senior, please go ahead. That is combating poison with poison. Senior, no! You won’t be affected by the inside demon when you get along with Ling’e. I have spent a lot of effort to find the way. Don’t put it off. It turned out that senior Jiu Jiu is so nervous in front of Immortal Wangqing. Interesting. But to prevent senior Jiu Jiu from approaching me again, I have to find a way to divert her attention. This is the Rubik’s cube. I will teach you the formula . This. And this. Senior Changshou. May I have a try? Of course. You are so considerate. No! There is a hole. Did you see through me? Did she do it on purpose? Should I twitch? Youdu, stay away from me. Welcome everyone to come to the first East Sea Conference. Today is also the tenth birthday ceremony of His Highness Ao Yi, the second prince. Immortal Zhongyu and Immortal Wangqing, please go to Immortal Table to negotiate. Other disciples please go to the banquet area. Dragon Palace is so magnificent. Yes. Air transmission . Air transmission is not only a secret technique of sound transmission, but also can accept the surrounding information by itself. Its advantage is that there is no consumption of the immortal power. Its shortcoming is that all kinds of information will flood in and need to be screened. Who was secretly observing Duxian just now? That’s him. He doesn’t look like an ordinary disciple of Dragon. Why is he looking at me? Did he notice my air transmission? No way. Air transmission doesn’t consume the immortal power, and won’t disturb others. Forget it. Keep a low profile. It is well known that the Dragon has a long history, and it has been the best among hundreds of clans since ancient times, with rich heritage and numerous masters . In order to strengthen the friendship between Human and Dragon, we specially set up a session for disciples to take up the challenge, and use the Celestial Treasure collected by the Dragon Palace for many years as the prize. It is because of the strength of Dragon Palace that we took out such a treasure. All disciples should take part in it actively. Dragon likes to use dummy handles to promote prestige. We all know the plight of Dragon today. Watch your words. The current situation of the Dragon is indeed worrying. After the battle among the Dragon, Phoenix and Unicorn, the Dragon suffered a great loss, and it’s far worse than before. Now Dao of Heaven has been favored Human. The three Taoism prevails. They seem to be still immersed in the dream of the past. I hereby announce the official start of the first Human-Dragon challenge. You, fight with me. [Episode 12] I hereby announce the official start of the first Human-Dragon challenge. The first player sent by our side is today’s birthday person, the second prince of Dragon. The second prince! He’s Ao Yi, the second prince of Dragon. So this is the second prince, who is ten years old. Today, let our second prince find a talent from the immortal sect to have a competition. Hold on. Why does he keep staring at me? No! You, compete with me! Is His Highness sure? With only a level 2 of Virtual Refining, he is the weakest in the immortal sect. Your Highness. Choose that lady. She’s at level 8 of Virtual Refining. This is His Highness’s strategy. Only by winning the first battle in an imposing manner can we show the majesty of the Dragon Palace. Of course he has to choose the weakest one. What a scheming dragon. Changshou has just broken through to level 2 of Virtual Refining. How could he beat someone at level 6 of Taoism Achieving? He clearly wants to humiliate Duxian. Your Highness. Are you going to compete with Changshou? Yes, let him in . They went too far. I can’t take the challenge. Otherwise, I will break through to the peak of Taoism Achieving if my breath is slightly unstable during the competition. What follows will be [Peak of Taoism Achieving] the catastrophe of immortality . Your Highness. My cultivation base is superficial and I am no match for you. Please choose someone else. Senior. I would like to try on behalf of senior Changshou. I chose you. Since you have been evading, why don’t you ask your senior to bow down to Dragon Palace and admit defeat? The second prince’s request is inappropriate. His cultivation level is much higher than that of the apprentice in my sect. When Duxian’s apprentices injured the Dragon Navy, you didn’t even care about the difference in realm. The Dragon Palace would rather claim the East Sea rebels as their own navy, in order to humiliate Duxian. I’m afraid this competition is unavoidable. Tell him to be careful. Changshou. Just compete with him, and your safety is top priority. Duxian’s honor doesn’t require apprentices to shed blood to fight for it. His words seem to have a deep meaning. Don’t shed blood to fight for it. Shed blood? Fight? He is asking me to try my best. Even if I can’t win, I can’t lose without dignity. It seems that I can only have a try. The competition will be bounded by the Lotus Platform. To retreat to the periphery is to admit defeat. Stop at where it should. Hold on. What? Your Highness. How about a verbal struggle? No more nonsense. Take it! So many big shots are gathering in the Dragon Palace. I’ d be exposed if any carelessness. I have to make it quick. Dragon Exploring Pace. Fire as a guide, red flame turns into a snake. Although this move showed the ultimate strength of Shoushou’s level 2 of Virtual Refining, – with the second prince’s cultivation base, – Go. with the second prince’s cultivation base, he should be able to dodge it easily… Got it! The The second prince was careless. Anyway, it’s Shoushou’s luck. He didn’t even break His Highness’s immortal armor. The talisman fire is nothing more than that. Your Highness should be more careful. The second prince underestimated the enemy and lost the initiative. He will cautiously fight next. It will be difficult for Changshou to hurt him again. Great talisman technique. Go ahead . Reduce the power of the technique now. As long as Ao Yi fights back… Talisman wind, up. How come? Well done! What are you proud of? Soon I will show you the true strength of the strongest clan since ancient times. Shoushou. Take the chance. Fully demonstrate on stage what it means that Human is always better than Dragon. No way. Something’s wrong . Wait. He wants to lose. But why? Perhaps the second prince wants to get injured and lose the competition on purpose, so that Dragon Palace could attack Duxian. If we want to solve the predicament and keep Duxian’s honor, it is best for Changshou to draw or lose to the second prince. Changshou. You can never win. Celestial Immortal’s vision is high enough to see through such a vicious trick of the enemy. Noble Dragon. Why do you still not understand that we are no longer the strongest ? The techniques that the Dragon is proud of are not worth mentioning in front of the Human. The so- called ancient overlord is just the past. This time I will wake you up completely. [Big Brother] It’s just that if Dragon Palace really wants to make trouble with Ao Yi’s injury, why did they choose me, the weakest apprentice? Too late. So weird. The attack doesn’t have much power. Anyway, try to exit the Lotus Platform. You really don’t give me a chance. But I won’t let you get what you want. So strong stamina. The contest is not over yet. I’ve been kicked out, yet you still don’t let me go. His Highness is not only exquisite in moves, but also noble in martial virtue. It’s clear that he wants to beat Shoushou up. But did the trick just now really hide any stamina? Why can’t I tell it? Changshou did his best. Now it’s not the time to care about Duxian’s honor anymore. Changshou. You have to lose the contest no matter what. It doesn’t matter even if losing embarrassingly. It’s time to show my superb acting skills. Let’s have a showdown next. I will show you the true means of the Dragon. Die! Talisman thunder! Techniques in one. I’m going to use this slap to tell the Dragon that today there are saints who can slay the Dragon. And the Human’s momentum is unstoppable. If we don’t let go of our so-called nobility and look for a real way out, only death will be awaiting us. Wake up, Dragon! Wake up. My brethren intoxicated in ancient dreams. So desperate. He leaves no stone unturned. Don’t underestimate my determination. One shall stand, one shall fall. If Changshou won, it would be troublesome. Your Highness. The majesty of the Dragon depends on you. The heel is about an inch past the border. Duxian lost! Your Highness! Your Highness is so cool! What a devastating defeat. Senior Changshou lost as expected. Your Highness . He stepped out with one foot. It’s obviously shady… Changshou is indeed promising and he knows the philosophy of winning and losing. I knew that as the strongest dragon in this generation, His Highness would never lose to Human. Now that the competition is set, it’s time to talk about the land division on the East Sea Coast. Don’t worry, Your Highness. Dragon Palace will undoubtedly win this battle. Since you still have objections, let’s continue. He’s still not giving up. Oops . I blocked it involuntarily. This attack seems to be facing outward, but it is actually turning the force back to itself. Could it be that he’s trying to…? Even if no one understands my determination, I will never give up. Even if I hurt my own primordial spirit, you will still lose to me. No! Your Highness! Ao Yi tried every means to lose to me, the weakest person in Duxian to humiliate the Dragon, – so as to reverse the bad practice of the clan. – Your Highness! It’s a pity that no one understood his painstaking efforts. Catch him! No! My realm can hardly be suppressed. You jerk! How dare you hurt His Highness’s primordial spirit? I’m only at Virtual Refining Realm . How can I hurt his primordial spirit? I beg your penetrating judgment. The feeling of breakthrough is getting stronger and stronger. I’m about to be locked in by the catastrophe of immortality. I have to leave now. General Crab. He’s right . His Highness injured the primordial spirit because his spells are too strong and something went wrong during operation. – He will recover after recuperating. – No. No! As I expected, His Highness is so powerful. Come on, take His Highness back to the room to rest. No! I haven’t lost yet. I understand. The Ancestor Dragon bloodline will never lose. General Crab, stop talking. Give your second prince a break. Hold on. I can also feign injury to leave. Senior Changshou. How are you? Nothing. You are badly injured. Don’t force yourself. The second prince went so far. He obviously chose Changshou for the purpose of bullying him. Xuanya, let’s avenge him later. Show the Dragon how powerful Duxian is! [Episode 13] Senior Changshou. How are you? Nothing. You are badly injured. Don’t force yourself. The second prince went so far. He obviously chose Changshou for the purpose of bullying him. Xuanya, let’s avenge him later. Show the Dragon how powerful Duxian is! Stay calm, so many Celestial Immortals in Dragon Palace are still watching us. Changshou is seriously injured. Jiu Jiu, quickly send him back to Duxian to recuperate. No. It will be troublesome if the catastrophe appeared on the way. I ventured to ask senior to stay and let me go back alone. The East Sea Conference is with bewildering changes. Every time one person is missing, the immortal sect becomes more in danger. If the sect were in danger because of me , I could never bear the responsibility. Changshou, you… Senior Changshou is really a gentleman with benevolence and righteousness. Alright, let’s do as you say. Jiu, pass the Ternary Fire Technique on him. Master asked me to pass it on you. This technique can strengthen the soul and body, and is very good for your healing. I finally got it. My confidence in surviving the catastrophe increased. Thank you, Immortal Wangqing. This junior is quite stable. I wonder if the elder immortals can settle the East Sea matter properly like him. Next, Dragon Palace’s opponent is me. My son, your primordial spirit isn’t healed yet, so don’t act rashly. Mother, let me out. I want to learn from Duxian and practice the way of a saint. Aren’t the techniques and treasures of the Dragon enough for you? Duxian’s ranking in Taoist is no more than mid-to-bottom. What qualifications do they have to teach the ancient Dragon? But… Don’t mention it again. At that time, Chan Taoism took an evil dragon as a disciple and made it in the pond for people to watch. [Queen Long, Dragon Mother of the East Sea] How can the Dragon forget such humiliation? My son, you should focus on recuperating. General Crab, keep an eye on the second prince. He cannot leave Dragon Palace until he recovers from his injury. Yes. Mother, you don’t understand. Only I, the second prince, apprenticed to Duxian, can tear apart the twisted pride of the Dragon and find a new way to restore the Dragon’s fate. I will definitely go to Duxian. The catastrophe clouds begun to gather. Why so soon? It is five thousand miles away from Duxian, and more than ten thousand miles away from the East Sea. Dragon Palace wouldn’t be able to detect the catastrophe. Oops, the makeup is messed up. As expected, Disguise and Apparition are still prone to errors. Coupled with waterproof special effects makeup to constitute a triple insurance. Although this island is sufficiently hidden, its structure is complex, and there are too many hiding places. Not good. The structure here is simple and won’t attract the attention of others. There’s something wrong with the currents . There are caves and natural escape routes under the sea. It’s a good place to cross the catastrophe. [A while ago] General Crab wants to keep an eye on me? No way! I have mastered Dragon’s Hiding Knack Technique since I was six years old. After I arrive in Duxian, I will take Human as my master in public to humilate the Dragon. Who is he? Did he detect my existence? Is the secret art of the Dragon so far behind? No, I can’t let him reveal my whereabouts. [Big Brother] Nuts. Wait, what did I eat? Psychedelic drugs. Dragon Palace set up an ambush here. Ouch, I almost fell for it. Even young dragons are so resistant. Looks like the formula of Psychedelic Powder needs to be improved. Talisman Array, Water Element Heavenly Seal. What a fast escape technique. Cunning Human! Sneak attack! And even poisoning! No, it’s wine. The voice … It’s Ao Yi! Why is he here? Does he intend to learn from the Taoist sect and keep stimulating the Dragon? Talisman spell. Once someone tries to kill Ao Yi, the primordial spirit will be locked by the talisman spell and he will be hunted down by the Dragon. In case the Dragon finds out that it was the Human who attacked him … Things would get worse and it would be bad if it influenced my catastrophe. I can neither kill him nor let this hidden danger go. The only way is to physically cleanse the dragon and wipe out the traces. Rinse. Roller. Spin-dry . Good. The remaining traces of fingerprints, drugs, paper figurines, and spells have all been cleaned up. Ao Yi, now we have nothing to do with each other. Let’s not meet each other again. Got it. His Highness is over there . Your Highness. Don’t come close to me. Human is really scary. Five-element Escape Technique. Water Escape. It is worthy of the power of Dao, and no pretense is allowed. Earth Escape. Wood Escape. Gold Escape. Fortunately, in the past few years, I prepared a few places for catastrophe. The catastrophe of immortality is finally coming. Judging from Master’s experience of crossing the catastrophe, showing sincerity is an important step. Taoist disciple Li Changshou is praying for the Heaven today . I sincerely establish my own way and inherit the immortality. No matter how the world changes, the Dao will always be there. Please give me a chance to be an immortal with catastrophe of immortality. Am I good-mannered enough? What a strong Dao rhyme. Could it be that…? This is the Dao of Heaven’s response. The immeasurable prehistoric world is destroyed and reborn with the catastrophe, only Dao survives. Li Changshou. Show me your Dao. [Episode 14] (As if it became a distant dream,) (short and beautiful.) (Blue Star, my hometown,) (a place I can never return to.) (In the Investiture of the Gods,) (the Dao of Heavenly seeks improvement) (and orders the Three Taoist Sages sign the Name List.) (Disciples from the three sects get involved in the Shang-Zhou transition chaos,) (causing countless casualties.) (The improvement of the Dao of Heavenly,) (must it come at the cost of countless lives?) (Over the years,) (I have been using cluster computing technology,) (continuously integrating Eastern and Western philosophy,) (attempting to explore a new order) (suitable for all living beings.) I made it ! It’s been six years. I finally did it! [Tao] This stupid answer took six years to decrypt! What’s the use of the computer? (This is my) (129th year in this world.) (Gazing into the future of the world,) (for its improvement,) (the Dao of Heaven will surely initiate the Name List) (of the Investiture of the Gods .) (Once an immortal dies and is listed,) (he will lose his freedom) (and self -awareness,) (completely becoming a pawn of the Dao of Heaven.) (This is simply a catastrophe.) (To avoid being involved in the Name List Catastrophe,) (I have secretly prepared several plans.) (And now,) (the catastrophe is approaching.) Hanzhi. This time, accompanying me preaching at the Jie Taoism sect’s place, how does it feel? Master , today, I finally witnessed the multitude of our disciples, humans and demons mingle, quite lively. [Golden Turtle Island Yuanze] I wonder which is livelier, this or the Dragon’s East Sea Conference? The Dragon has always been proud and arrogant. Please do not follow them. You’re talented and quite insightful . [Golden Turtle Island Hanzhi] I believe you will face the catastrophe of immortality soon. Master. The disciple you praised last time has already perished. No more praise. Someone is crossing the catastrophe. Quick, Hanzhi. This is the best time to observe a catastrophe of immortality. It seems like it has already ended. Did I succeed? Master, he’s about to ascend . Behind this gate is the immortal path, right? Exactly. In my opinion, he has unlimited potential. He’s about to ascend to become an immortal. This unknown friend. Wish you good luck. (Becoming an immortal and achieving the Tao.) (This is the immortal path.) (This is…) (This…) (Wait a moment.) (What’s going on?) (Why did only the upper half of the body become immortal?) (What should I do now? ) (Voluntarily amputate and let the upper body ascend?) (The lower body is also important.) (It’s not like practicing the Evil-Suppressing Sword Technique) (that I can abandon something easily.) (Wait a moment!) (Could it be that the Dao of Heaven misjudged my strength?) (So there’s no sufficiently) (intense heavenly thunder) (causing me to have only half) (an immortal body now?) (Wait a minute.) (Is it because…) (Indeed, it’s the Fire Virtue Jade blocking the Dao of Heaven.) (Fire Virtue Jade,) (using for anti- calculation.) (It can prevent others from calculating cultivation and origin.) (Go away.) (Taoist… Ancestor ) Today I sought help from heavens. The variables in the catastrophe, I harbor no ill intentions indeed. I earnestly request the heavens to consider the difficulties of my cultivation. If another catastrophe descends, I ask the heavens to allow me to change the location to avoid unforeseen circumstances. (The good thing is, to prevent interference during the catastrophe,) (I deliberately found several more places for the catastrophe in advance.) Impressive catastrophe clouds. The Nine Heavens Divine Demon Catastrophe which ranks the second. Dao of Heaven has truly been provoked by me.) (I’m in big trouble now.) Faye Cage. It seems like this person is likely to die under the catastrophe. It appears this person still has a slim chance of survival. [ Big Brother] (Ternary Fire Technique Bu Geng) (Bu Geng, inscribed by the human ancestor Shennong) (The ancient characters it forms) (can make a certain array to resist.) The last catastrophe is not right. Strange. Besides the catastrophe , it seems like there is something else. No need to hurry. At this place, see if he can withstand the last one. He should not be able to endure it logically. He successfully passed the last catastrophe. Master, your prediction is truly comparable to an artifact from the Dao of Heaven. Becoming an immortal, and achieving the Tao. This is the immortal path. This is… It’s incredible that he could survive the catastrophe. Let’s go over and make friends. Maybe he’s about to ascend directly to become an immortal. This… Wait a moment. What’s going on? Master, please stop talking. It’s the punishment of immortality. The Dao of Heaven judged that this person appeared counter-intuitive, and sent down thunderstorms to punish him. You have no martial ethics. [Celestial Realm] These three Blue Lotus Tao Flowers. Are they the Taoist symbols you mentioned, Master? The three Tao Flowers represent essence, energy, and spirit. The more petals, the more complete the Tao foundation, and the greater the potential. (After this catastrophe,) (the number of petals on my Tao Flower) ( increased from 27 to 81.) (But the last punishment) (caused some damage to the Tao Flower.) (I need to find a place to heal quickly.) Fellow, We are Qi Cultivators from the Jie Taoism on Golden Turtle Island. My name is Yuanze, and this is my disciple, Hanzhi. We’ve come to congratulate you. (Hanzhi of Golden Turtle Island ?) (Is she the immortal Hanzhi) (who perished under the Divine Whip during the Name List Catastrophe,) [Immortal Hanzhi] (her soul listed on the Investiture of the Gods?) (I cannot have any connection with the person facing the catastrophe.) Congratulations on ascending to the celestial realm. Run. Your future cultivation path undoubtedly will be smooth. We hope you will join our Jie Taoism. Master! It’s a pity didn’t even see the face of him. Please just let him go. (The immortal path is elusive, and worldly matters are unpredictable.) (The great Tao spans thousands of years, ultimately one must rely on oneself.) (In the myriad causal relationships, One’s fate becomes evident.) (During the Tao Flower’s restoration period, I cannot move casually.) (The fish belly is indeed an excellent place for cultivation.) Such a big fish. I caught a big one. So noisy… Why are you bothering me? [Xiong Village Xiong Lingli] This is… The Sea God! Born from the fish’s belly, the Sea God. – Sea God! – Sea God ! Quickly send the Sea God to the village for proper worship. Notify all villagers in Xiong Village. Set up an idol and arrange an altar for prayers. Where did the Sea God come from? How dare he compete for territory with me? [Ancient Evil Wenjing] Your Lady, leave the matters of Xiong Village to me. [Episode 15] (This village is located in the southwest of Nanshanbu Continent.) (It’s a remote location.) (The villagers mainly make a living by fishing.) (Strangely,) (the villagers all seem as) (if they’ve taken some kind of enhancing potion.) (Their bodies are almost all very robust.) (Their diet is also quite normal.) (Strange.) (Could it be an inherited physique?) (Is this really a physique that humans can have?) Sea God! What a massive stone statue! They’ve actually managed to set it up. I’m not the real Sea God. As long as I keep pretending not to move, no one will believe in the Sea God anymore, and the Sea God statue will become just a useless stone (I should quickly repair the Blue Lotus Tao Flower) (and leave this place as soon as possible.) ( No wonder he looks so bright and shiny.) (The Sea God I saved from the fish’s belly,) (looks quite impressive.) (The Tao Flower is finally completely repaired.) (I can hide my cultivation,) (simulate the appearance of an undescended immortal,) (and quickly sever the connection with Xiong Village,) (so as not to get involved in any troubles.) (There’s a strong demonic aura here.) Village Chief, look over there! There’s a demon! [ Xiong Village Village Chief] Run! Everyone, don’t panic. Our village is blessed by the Sea God. We will be safe. That’s right. The Sea God will protect us. (Twin Sages of Xifang, extraordinary and supernatural,) (mysterious and wonderful methods, spreading blessings.) Village Chief, what’s happening? Look, those people are immortals. Who are the Twin Sages of Xifang? Are they more powerful than the Sea God in our Xiong Village? This is the Grand Master of our Xifang Taoism, Jieyin Sage. The Second Master , Zhunti Sage. You are fated to meet with our Xifang Taoism. The Twin Sages foresaw trouble in this area and sent us to subdue demons and eliminate evil. Subduing demons and eliminate evil? (The Twin Sages of Xifang) (together with the Three Taoist Sages and the Goddess, Nuwa,) (are known as the Six Great Disciples, following Taoist Ancestor.) (Unlike the other four taught by Taoist Ancestor himself,) (Jieyin and Zhunti are only considered registered disciples,) (and were assigned ) (to the barren Xiniuhe Continent.) (It is said that Jieyin and Zhunti originally aspired (to revitalize the West to become immortals,) (and create a pure land in the world.) (So they established the Xifang Taoism .) (Now, while the Three Sects of Taoism are flourishing,) [Xiniuhe Continent Zhongshen Continent Dongmengshen Continent ] (Xifang Taoism is becoming weaker) due to its remote location.) (Its gap with the Taoism sect is growing wider.) (The Twin Sages of Xifang began to broaden good relationships) (and recruit talents.) (But the disciples of Xifang Taoism ) (who traveled far from the Xiniuhe Continent to Nanshanbu Continent,) (to deal with a newly appeared demon.) (Isn’t the timing a bit too coincidental?) Amazing! The rain has stopped, and the sun is out . It seems your Sea God isn’t that powerful, huh? We’ll have to take action to deal with this. You’re talking nonsense ! The Sea God will show its divine power! Run! Everyone, worship the Twin Sages to protect us! Don’t listen to them. What are you hesitating for? Do you want to be eaten by the Fish Demon? Sages, please help us! (This Fish Demon has committed heinous crimes.) (It’s burdened by bad luck. ) (From the demonic aura, it’s probably in the Real Immortal Realm,) (higher in cultivation than those disciples of Xifang Taoism .) (But its attacks are only for testing.) (Where did things go wrong?) (Dementor Orb, extract its primordial spirit) (to see its memories.) (Let me see why you came to Xiong Village.) I’ve been hungry for a long time. This time, your task is to attack Xiong Village. You love eating human flesh , don’t you? But remember, in the end, you must be subdued by me. So, they were all in cahoots. (This Fish Demon) (is a big demon nurtured by the Xifang Taoism .) (While Xifang Taoism raises demons to harm people,) (they also send disciples to act good,) (as if they are subduing demons and eliminate evil,) (just to attract more followers) (and strengthen themself.) (This is a battle between the two sects ,) (involving the Twin Sages of Xifang,) (and the Three Taoist Sages, a total of five sages.) (What a significant twist of fate.) (To be safe,) (I better slip away quickly.) (Definitely don’t look back.) Xiong Lingli, the Sea God is useless. Worship the Twin Sages. No, I believe in the Sea God. He will surely help us! Twin Sages of Xifang, please help us! Help! The Fish Demon is coming again! Master, please help us! How dare! Twin Sages of Xifang, please grant me strength. Run! (Come on.) (I’m not the real Sea God.) (I shouldn’t get involved in these matters.) (It’s that girl who’s too naïve.) (It’s not my fault.) Twin Sages of Xifang, please help us! Sea God, please show your divine power! [Big Brother] (Self-developed Poison, Mermaid Mute Powder,) ( inspired by a well-known fairy tale,) (if you drink it, you’ll lose your voice instantly.) Who’s attacking me here? What a treacherous poison ! I can’t make any sound. (Self-developed Hallucinogenic Drug, an upgraded version,) (an injection-type Psychedelic Powder,) (one shot makes you faint, and two shots are insurance.) (Self-developed Array, ) (Ternary Fire Sword Array.) Never meet again and never be reincarnated. (I chose this Fish Demon right.) (It acted too realistically.) (I’ll use it next time.) Can our Xiong Village join the Xifang Taoism and worship the Twin Sages? Of course, you can. From now on, you will be disciples of my Xifang Taoism . Twin Sages of Xifang! How can you betray the Sea God? Master, don’t blame her. My sister is too young and too naïve. Never mind. Why not let her come with me to the West and receive guidance from the Sages? I can surely help her find the right path. She’s my only sister. This is a tremendous opportunity. (This young girl is sturdy.) (The Fish Demon will enjoy eating her.) (This isn’t guiding her to the West.) (It’s delivering her to the demons!) (If she follows him,) (she’ll become food for the demons!) [Scroll] (Self-developed Talisman,) (Tough Bone Powerful Strength Talisman.) (What?) (A mortal is actually this powerful?) (Could there really be some Sea God assisting her?) I told you, our village’s Sea God is the strongest and most divine! Sister, how did you become so powerful just now? There was suddenly a magical force inside my body. It must be the Sea God showing his divine power. (Run! Run quickly) ( while no one notices!) (Wait a minute.) (There’s still a statue of me in Xiong Village.) (If the Twin Sages of Xifang) (see the statue) (and realize it’s me who disrupted their plans…) [Order to Kill] – Thank you, Sea God. – Thank you, Sea God. (I am not the real Sea God.) (I hereby offer a small gift) (as thanks for your shelter.) (I also attached several introductory manuals for Qi Cultivators.) (A strong youth makes a strong village. ) (There’s no need to seek immortality or worship gods.) (You can cultivate and prosper on your own.) (Although he’s not the Sea God,) ( he’s a hero.) (I want to become a person like him.) (Now, immediately, right away,) (return to the territory of the Taoism .) (The Twin Sages of Xifang) (are only registered disciples of Taoist Ancestor .) (The Three Taoist Sages) (are disciples following Taoist Ancestor himself. ) (With the protection of the Three Taoist Sages,) (there’s no need to fear the Twin Sages of Xifang.) (Being able to join Duxian in Taoism) (is truly a great fortune.) (The world is too dangerous.) (Human hearts are too complicated.) (The twist of fate is too troublesome.) In the future, I must adhere to the idea of ​​​​staying within the Xiaoqiong Peak and never going out. [Episode 16] Previously, the Second Prince of the Dragon severely wounded Changshou. Now, Xuanya has defeated many masters in the Dragon. Consider it a score settled for Changshou. (I hope Xiaoqiong Peak is okay these days. ) (I reminded Ling’e to cultivate diligently.) (Master just became an turbid immortal.) (He’s probably in seclusion.) Changshou! You’re finally back! Stop. (Who set up this Consecutive Array?) (What’s his plan?) [Lost?] (This writing looks familiar.) (Oh no.) Please refrain from damaging anything here. This path leads to an area without soundproof arrays. (Perhaps there’s still an exit.) [This is a makeshift directional sign.] You don’t have to write if you have nothing to say. Why can ‘t I control myself? [Arrived. Take three steps forward.] Back then , outside the alchemy room, I set up a complex array formation to prevent anyone from discovering that I was secretly refining the Immortal-melting Pill. I never expected to trap Master in it. Fortunately, you prepared a guest room in the array. Now , let’s talk about why Master ended up inside the array? II swear… I really told Master not to go near the alchemy room. But he might not have heard me because he was thinking about the letter. The letter? Master has no friends at all. He doesn’t even have friends? What a pitiful immortal he is! Was there a signature? It seems to be Wan Jiangyu. Changshou, do you know this person? She was a senior of our former master and she was our Master’s childhood friend. She might have been our Master’s wife. [Qi Yuan] She must have been a great person to capture Master’s heart so thoroughly. But why didn’ t she become his wife? Nine hundred years ago, Wan Jiangyu was the most beautiful woman in Duxian. [Wan Jiangyu] She had many admirers within the sect. But there was one person who, after pursuing her relentlessly for over a decade without success, became resentful of our Master and launched a sneak attack, damaging Master’s foundation. He couldn’t win her heart, so he attacked from behind. Serves him right to be a lifelong bachelor. No wonder Wan Jiangyu didn’t like him. Later on, Wan Jiangyu left Duxian in search of a precious medicine to repair Master’s foundation. She left and we never heard from her again. Changshou, do you think Wan Jiangyu found the medicine and that’s why she arranged to meet with Master? [Xiaoqiong Peak Master Qi Yuan is here to pay respects.] I set up this array. The handwriting is indeed mine. But why don’t I remember anything? Could it be that everything I’ve experienced is fake? Senior. Junior. In this time’s inner sect competition, you’re the fourthteenth this time. You’ve improved. Junior, take good care of yourself inside the sect. I will definitely find the precious medicine to repair your foundation. Senior. Don’t go! Master is suffering from a disrupted thought, giving rise to inner demons. Foundation damage. Beloved departed. You struggled for half a lifetime to become a turbid immortal. Your past is truly tragic. Who are you? You and I are the same person, but our circumstances are completely different. In my past, none of this happened. My foundation wasn’ t damaged. Senior never left. That’s right. But there can only be one Qi Yuan in the world. Who do you think lives better? So, as long as I’m not here, everything will be fine. As long as I’ m not here… As long as I’m not here… As long as I’m not here… (Calm my mind.) (Concentrate my thoughts. ) Changshou, Ling’e. It seems like I’ve seen Senior. ( Master’s thought must have been disturbed by that letter.) (He’s been afflicted by inner demons.) How did you guys get in? What about the array? (My Senior is extraordinary.) (Are you going to expose this?) The array was designed by me. But it was meant to guard against thieves. Thieves? Xiaoqiong Peak is in dire straits! Where would thieves come from? You seem pretty shifty to me! [Big Brother!] I have important matters to attend to . You’ll have to look after Xiaoqiong Peak for now. (First, stabilize Master.) Master, Wan Jiangyu hasn’t ‘t returned for many years. She should have been expelled from Xiaoqiong Peak according to the sect’s rules. By the sect’s rules, it’s equivalent to leaving the sect. As the Peak Master, how will you explain a private meeting with her to the elders? Then, what do you suggest we do? Master, the Isolation Array has been opened. No one will disturb you writing a letter to Wan Jiangyu. Changshou. Changshou, are you really going to deliver the letter instead of Master? What if the Worst-case scenario happens, and Wan Jiangyu has already been killed? This letter is an attempt to lure Master outside and eliminate him. Changshou, do you already have a suspect in mind? That’s right. (This person is the rival who destroyed Master’s foundation.) (He’s now at Xianlin Peak.) (Second only to Nine Immortals of Jiu’s strength) (who’s at Potian Peak.) (But he’s the wealthiest peak leader.) The sect won’t let Xioqiong Peak be bullied just because it’s poor. There were no witnesses at the scene. The sect can’t determine what happened. They can only impose minor punishment. I thought this grudge had ended with Wan Jiangyu’s departure. But I never expected that now that Master has become a turbid immortal and has a chance to break through to Real Immortal Realm. This person would become a threat. If the matter with the letter is really a plot by someone behind the scenes, then he’s the prime suspect. (Changshou, this person is… ) (Kuai Si, disciple of Xianlin Peak) [Kuai Si, Xianlin Peak] (So it’s him.) (Hasn’t he already reached the pinnacle of Real Immortal Realm?) Master took nine hundred years to become an Immortal because of him and nearly died in the catastrophe. I will keep a close eye on this person. If I discover that this matter is related to him, I will settle both the old grudges and the new ones. In addition, there are risks on the way to the meeting. You need to have some cards up your sleeve. Changshou, what are you planning to do with this ? This item is called a Sensing Stone. When you apply ink with colorful flowers to it, it changes color when it encounters divine senses, allowing you to monitor if you’re being spied on and the cultivation level of the one doing the spying. Can’t the little paper man do this too? I’m just trying to make it more engaging for you. What kind of medicine are you refining in this alchemy furnace? It’s a Psychedelic Powder. Preparing such a high-quality medicine for Kuai Si, a real Immortal, seems like a waste. [Real Immortal Realm is far from the Celeste Realm, but what if the person is a hidden big shot? Besides, Xianlin Peak is skilled in refining artifacts. If Kuai Si has powerful treasures. .. [Victory] Let’s consider it carefully. We should be prepared for the Celeste Realm, just in case. During this time, you stay in seclusion with Master. My Senior is really cautious! But what if the other party expects you at the meeting and changes the plan? So, I absolutely cannot show any weaknesses. (How come I happened to bump into someone who just returned from the East Sea Conference?) (Pretend I didn’t see them.) Qi Yuan! Jiu Jiu. You’ve returned from the Dragon Palace so quickly. Don’t mention it. The Second Prince of the Dragon Palace, Ao Yi, I don’t know what’s gotten into him again. So, we had to end it abruptly. But my Master said Changshou took the credit in fighting against Ao Yi. I took the opportunity to get some spell scrolls for Xiaoqiong Peak. Senior, you don’t have to be so touched. Just have Changshou drink with me later. As long as I’m satisfied, that’s all that matters. (These evasive moves are so smooth.) (Changshou is sick and can’t be touched.) (Are you still holding onto your purity at your age?) Thank you for your concern, Jiu Jiu, but Changshou’s strength is low for now, and we don’t need high- level cultivation scrolls. (I was already gained so much attention at the Dragon Palace.) (If I got more rewards…) (I’ d be the most prominent disciple in the sect.) Even if it’s not for Changshou, Qi Yuan, you just became a turbid immortal, you also need scrolls to consolidate your cultivation, right? Your kindness is well received. I’m preparing to go on a training journey in the Southern Continent to steadily improve my cultivation. (His change is so sudden.) (Qi Yuan has been in seclusion) (for nine hundred years.) Qi Yuan, this time, Changshou sacrificed himself to protect our sect’s reputation. I greatly admire him. I wonder how he’s doing. At present, he’s fine . Thank you for your concern. But you, with all these injuries… Xuanya took care of the Dragon Palace disciples in the arena and avenged Changshou . Avenged… (Youdu, you’re quite impulsive!) (You should keep a low profile!) (Won’t the Dragon Palace blame me for this?) Xuanya, I’m very pleased with your concern for your fellow sect members. (Who’s getting angry?) (Is Qi Yuan unhappy?) (Why does his face look so fierce?) Changshou, with his high moral character and supreme benevolence and goodness, is a role model for all of us. [Role Model of the Sect] Being able to befriend him is a great fortune for me. (Don ‘t praise me so much. Let me go.) Jiu Jiu, after traveling so far, you should return to the mountain to settle in first. Let’s part ways here. (The Sensing Stone is reacting.) (I’ve been locked on by some divine sense.) Someone is actually willing to spend so many spirit stones to buy the life of this turbid immortal. It’s quite a profitable deal. (Once he reaches the Lindong City in the Southern Continent, (we’ll strike immediately .) [Episode 17] (According to the reaction of the Sensing Stone,) (three divine senses in total have locked onto me.) (Two at the Meta Immortal Realm are of little concern.) (But this one at the Real Immortal Realm…) (If he’s concealed his cultivation level,) (it could be the peak of Real Immortal Realm, or even higher.) (There is too little information.) (I can’t determine who is tracking me yet. ) (Never mind.) (I’ve prepared fifteen contingency plans,) (ready to respond at a moment’s notice.) (This is the meeting place agreed upon in the letter.) [Lanxiang Pavilion] (The Southern Continent is indeed where the fortunes of Humans converge.) (They’re even starting to pursue spiritual needs.) However… (The divine sense lock has been lifted; they ‘re showing up.) (I haven’t even done anything yet.) Junior Qi Yuan. Jiu Wu. Senior. (Why is it this old fox?) (He’s following me.) (No. Following Master for what?) (And those two Meta Immortal Realm beings have disappeared too.) (What’s going on here? ) Who’s the person beside him? Don’t know. He’s meeting the target in the city. We’ve been carefully hiding underground and tracking the target . We haven’t noticed anyone else. We shouldn’t be exposed. Just to be safe, we need to take the initiative. With this treasure , killing both won’t be difficult. Senior, why are you here? Jiu Jiu was worried about you going out alone and asked me to protect you in secret. I didn’t expect you… Junior, you’ve always preserve your moral integrity. How come after ascending, you’ve suddenly changed, delving into the mortal world? (Senior uncle Jiu Wu protecting me in secret is well-intentioned.) (If he’s not tracking me, Li Changshou…) (It’s dangerous!) [Dangerous] (He knows Master very well.) (If I show any flaw, my trump card will be revealed.) (And the person behind the scenes will be alerted.) Senior, you misunderstand. As cultivators, we seek the Taoism wholeheartedly, how could we desire the filth of the mortal world? My stop here is for another reason. What reason? The city is so prosperous, commoners aren’t lacking food and clothing, yet these people walk with hollow steps, like hungry ghosts , truly bizarre. (Unexpectedly, Junior is so naive.) (Junior has been longing for Junior Wan Jiangy) (for nearly a thousand years,) (always lonely.) (I, as his senior,) (shouldn’t be overly critical.) (I feel like he’s thinking something impolite.) Indeed, some people are weak in yang energy and short-lived, as if their essence was sucked away by demon races. And inside, there are exactly three demons, one at the Real Immortal Realm, two at the Meta Immortal Realm. I couldn’t tell at first glance. Junior, your eyesight is impressive. After ascending, my eyes do get sharper. (It seems those who were tracking me) (are those two Meta Immortal Realm demons.) Senior, this matter is of great importance, should we return to the sect to report immediately? Since when did you become as thoughtful as Changshou? Currently, we only have suspicions, no evidence. Let’s investigate secretly first. If it’s true, we’ll join forces to eliminate the demons, protecting the peace of this land. Wouldn’t that be wonderful? Senior , you’re indeed noble and righteous. (Senior uncle Jiu Wu can easily spot) (the slight differences between me and Master.) (I must be more restrained,) (not overstepping even slightly.) The Three Mo Sisters’ additional performance is starting soon. Don’t miss it as you pass by! An additional performance? (The person behind the scenes really went to great lengths) (to lure Master into the trap.) [Big Brother] (Acting with Senior uncle Jiu Wu brings peace of mind.) (We actually caught in the act) (the demons sucking the essence from humans ) (By the way, they’re so skilled.) (how much essence have they consumed exactly?) You weren’t affected by sister’s Enchanting Fragrant Mist. Is your cultivation higher than ours? It must be at least the peak of the Real Immortal Realm. Why would you be with a turbid immortal? Sisters, let’s kill that turbid immortal first. Junior, protect these mortals. What a nuisance. What’s happening? Another demon? Could she have some treasure to hide her demonic aura and cultivation ? [Lan, Green Hill Fox] Innkeeper, he injured my two sisters! Ms. Lan, you must stand up for us! Daring to cause trouble in my place… Junior, protect yourself at all costs. I won’t forgive you! (Can Senior uncle Jiu Wu handle this?) (No, it seems I’m in more danger.) (Hell, so close.) (If I use abilities beyond that of a turbid immortal,) (Senior uncle Jiu Wu will surely notice something amiss.) (So that means,) (I have to fight three demons with Master’s persona.) How can such an old man run so fast? (Playing Master isn’t easy for me.) Don’t worry, he can’t stand it for long. The Soul-Sealing Mist has taken effect. (This is bad.) (The sound of the zither is secretly filled with invisible mist,) (gradually suffocating.) (Although with my own) (Celestial Realm cultivation, I could resist,) (but clearly, Master’s cultivation) (cannot.) (Senior uncle Jiu Wu, why aren’t you back yet?) (No, Junior is in danger.) (I must finish this demon quickly.) Don’t think I can’t deal with you. You are from the Green Hill Fox. ( This is troublesome now.) ( Forget it, better rely on myself.) (Activate emergency plan number nine.) It’s futile. This Soul-Sealing Mist is powered by me. You, a mere turbid immortal, cannot possibly break it. Though my powers are humble, I refuse to submit to wicked demons like you! (Paper Men One, Two, and Three, move out!) (Self-developed Array, Mirror Maze.) (Humans are always fooled by appearances.) Green Hill Fox, blessed by the Holy Mother Nuwa, has always been kind to humans. Why have you fallen so low as to feed on human essence? That’s none of your business. Surrender now. I’ll kill you! Sisters, lend me your power. (Here it comes again. ) The All-Poison Soul-Eating Mist. (If I block this attack,) (my far superior strength to a turbid immortal will be revealed,) (raising Senior uncle Jiu Wu’s serious suspicions.) ( But if I let the poison spread freely,) (while Master’s persona is preserved,) (it’s hard to save my life.) (No,) (I absolutely can’t block.) Junior, are you alright? These three demons are quite formidable. Thanks to Senior’s rescue . Junior, you’re too modest. Who would have thought you could entangle with three demons to this extent. Before going out, Changshou gave me many talismans for protection. I see. Junior nephew Changshou has so many cunning schemes, not just meta immortals can’t stand them; even real Immortals stumble. Once he becomes immortal, I fear he’d even dare to scheme against Celestial Immortals. For the sake of Master’s illustrious reputation, I’ve endured. (The seal I placed on the zither has been broken.) (The assassination has failed.) (Qi Yuan,) (you’ve been a wastrel for nine hundred years.) (Yet upon ascension,) (you are still so capable .) (The more this is true, the less I can keep you alive.) [Episode 18] (Combining the surveillance from the papermen,) (it’s almost certain that Kuai Si is the true mastermind behind the scenes.) (He used Wan Jiangyu’s name) (to lure Master to Lindong City,) (intent on hiring assassins to eliminate Master.) (Now that Kuai Si knows of the Toad Demon’s failure,) (he’s on his way here.) (He can arrive in as little as an hour.) ( The trouble is with Senior Uncle Jiu Wu.) The Toad Demon carries so much karmic hindrances. This Fox Demon is from Green Hill Fox, which has deep connections with the Human’s Holy Mother Nuwa. This is very tricky . (Let me find a way to distract Senior Uncle Jiu Wu first.) Why not interrogate her after she wakes up? There’s a secluded beach nearby, which is perfect for this. You are awake. You Fox Demon, why wreak havoc among humans? What’s your connection with that Toad Demon? My name is Ms. Lan. (Such a powerful charm technique.) (Fortunately, I’ve long studied the Purifying Spell.) (It’s not a big issue for me.) (Senior Uncle Jiu Wu should also…) (Senior Uncle Jiu Wu,) (please stay calm!) (Master,) (I’m sorry.) Lucky to have this. (This is the Hundred Beauties Scroll drawn by Changshou,) (essential for Qi Cultivators to purify the mind and resist charm techniques,) [ To purify the mind and resist charm techniques] (a must-have item.) What a powerful treasure! Daring to deceive us with your charm technique! Soul-Locking Talisman. (Now’s the time.) Junior, what’s wrong with you? Senior , I seldom visit such places. I was just injured by the Toad Demon, and then encountered the Fox Demon’s charm. It seems that I’ve developed an evil obviation. (Master,) (please don’t blame me.) You should rest and recuperate immediately. Sisters, you died so tragically. Tell me, how did that turbid immortal kill your sisters? Does he have any special methods? My sisters are already dead. What’s the point in telling you all this? Then you also have no reason to live in this world. [A few hours earlier] Like to run? (Psychedelic Powder with Celestial version.) (Looks like it’s quite effective.) (But to be safe, it’s always best to confirm.) (It would be terrible to kill the wrong person.) (Still,) (best to conduct a soul search.) (Master!) (As expected,) (Kuai Si hired the Toad Demon) (to kill Master here.) (Master…) (Senior Uncle Wan…) (The Lindong City assassination case) (has been confirmed now.) What are you? Your lost conscience. [Big Brother] I knew it was you causing trouble! Sun-Chasing Clouds-Breaking Spindle! Go! (Kuai Si is no wonder a Weapon Cultivator,) (The Sun-Chasing Clouds-Breaking Spindle) (can even switch between multiple attack forms.) (I learned something new.) How could it be possible? You’re not a turbid immortal. You are a real immortal. Wrong. I am a celestial immortal. (May you never) (reincarnate.) I truly didn’t partake in absorbing human essence. If you don’t believe me… Surprisingly, there’s merit. Generally speaking, doing good brings merit, while evil deeds bring karmic hindrances. When enough merit accumulates, one can attain the opportunity for sanctification. Those with great fortune can become sages through merit. The current six sages all ascended through merit. (The Three Taoist Sages gained merit through enlightenment,) (the Twin Sages of the Xifang through grand vows,) (and the Holy Mother Nuwa through creating humanity.) But this Fox Demon’s merit… This is ancestral. My ancestors once saved humans during the Great War of Witches and Demons , thus obtaining merit, passed down to us. If you kill me, the merit on me will turn into karmic hindrances on you. Senior, her words are arrogant, but not without reason. We should take her back to the sect for judgment. I came out in a hurry and didn’t bring a bag to contain living beings. I have one. Changshou specially prepared it for me before I left. (Talismans Containment Bag) (Junior Qi Yuan seems overly cautious.) (Are these things really given to him by Changshou,) (or is it?) Junior, do you know what Changshou has been up to recently? Senior, why are you here? Changshou, he’s probably cultivating. (Why is he suddenly asking about me?) Good, I’ll visit here for a while. Aren’t you going to the Reward and Punishment Hall? Ms. Lan’s matter still needs the sect’s decision. (I got a problem.) (This old fox must have discovered something.) I’ll do it in person later. What, does Xiaoqiong Peak not welcome me? How could that be? Senior’s visit will surely make Xiaoqiong Peak shine. Daybreak, please open your eyes. Last Last night, Senior Jiu Jiu Uncle died. I ‘ve been playing all day, always the first to die! I’m not playing anymore! Senior Uncle Jiu Jiu, you’re cheating! I just knew it. Where did Li Changshou go? Senior Jiu Wu, why are you here? Speak up, Junior Nephew. I’ve suspected you for a while now. By playing this, how could you possibly fool me? Senior Uncle Jiu Wu, want to play Werewolf? (Li Changshou is actually playing what, Werewolf here?) ( So he didn’t disguise as Qi Yuan.) (Just to be safe, I should still use power to probe.) (Consciousness as a guide, reveal the truth.) (I was overthinking it.) Since you’re all playing games here, I won’t disturb you. I’ll be leaving then. Senior Uncle Jiu Wu! (That was close.) (Thank goodness I have the Fire Virtue Jade to block probes, ) (or else Senior Uncle Jiu Wu would ‘ve) (seen through the paperman directly.) (It seems my portrayal of Master isn’t convincing enough,) (rousing Senior Uncle Jiu Wu’s suspicions.) (I must closely observe Master’s words and actions in the future,) (further improving my acting skills.) (This time, papermen and I were divided into three groups) (to kill Kuai Si while) (using Senior Uncle Jiu Wu) (to create an alibi for Master, ) (and using Jiu Jiu to create an alibi for Li Changshou.) (There were many risks. I’ll need to thoroughly review it later.) (But as for Master…) Qi Yuan, that waste, why do you spend so much effort on him? How am I inferior to him? You, with such malicious thoughts, dare to compare yourself to Junior Qi Yuan. Since it’s come to this, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Master, the Lindong City appointment was also Kuai Si’s plot. He wanted to hire someone to eliminate you. Then, due to personal grudges, they fought to the death. You go back. I want some time alone. (Although Senior Uncle Wan is dead,) (her soul still lingers in this world.) (Perhaps, ) (Master and Senior Uncle Wan might reunite one day.) I, on behalf of Golden Turtle Island, have come to visit, wishing to discuss and exchange insights with your esteemed sect. This is a letter of greeting. Duxian and Golden Turtle Island both belong to the Taoist sects, indeed we should enhance our exchanges. (It seems this time,) (we’ll need to select outstanding disciples) (to exchange insights with Golden Turtle Island.) (Perhaps…) [Episode 19] We would like to exchange insights with the top disciple of Xiaoqiong Peak. (Xiaoqiong Peak?) (It’s the weakest peak in our sect.) (What does the Golden Turtle Island intend with this?) ( Are they deliberately trying to humiliate the Duxian? ) (They probably want to avoid conflicts within the Taoist sect.) (It’s easy to know the strength of Xiaoqiong Peak) (with a little inquiry.) (The Golden Turtle Island will look decent if they win,) (and our Duxian won ‘t lose face either.) There are three disciples in the Xiaoqiong Peak. Which one would you like to challenge, my fellow? Li Changshou. (Ao Yi?) (Has he joined the Golden Turtle Island?) (The Dragons are always so proud.) (How could they join forces with the Taoist sect?) (To defeat the Blue-robed Taoist,) (I am going to join the Taoist sect) (to study the ways of the sages.) (To rebuild the Dragon,) (I must make a name across the world,) (leading the disciples of my race) (to join the Taoist sect.) (The first step in my plan to gain fame,) (is to cleanse the stain of the battle at the Dragon Palace.) Immortal Zhongyu, my senior Li Changshou has hit a bottleneck in his cultivation and is in deep seclusion. Fortunately, I had a plan to avoid them. That’s unfortunate. Prince Ao Yi, why not choose another disciple to challenge? Youqin Xuanya is willing to learn from Prince Ao Yi. Are you a disciple of Xiaoqiong Peak? No. Then that won’t do. (Senior, I was being reckless for you.) (Don’t make me copy scriptures as punishment.) I am a disciple of Xiaoqiong Peak, Lan Ling’ e. I am willing to learn from Prince Ao Yi. My opponent must be Changshou, otherwise, my inner demons won’t dissipate. It is Li Changshou lost the battle at the Dragon Palace, why would you have inner demons? Speaking of inner demons, only those who understand will understand. (After being cleansed by the Blue-robed Taoist,) (I’m ashamed of being afraid of Taoists.) (It’s really embarrassing for the Dragon.) Since he’s in seclusion, I’ll wait for him outside the door. (This little dragon is so extreme,) (even starting to block the door.) (It’s about the rise and fall of the Dragon.) (I won’t give up.) (Let’s just wait it out .) (Let’s see who can last longer.) (I have a very long lifespan as a dragon inherently.) (I can outlast you) (and still have plenty to spare.) They’re trying to wear me out. If it’s really not working, I’ll have to wake up Changshou. Junior Qi Yuan, how are your injuries after the battle with the Toad Demon? The Toad Demon? (Could it be the one Changshou mentioned,) (the one hired by Kuai Si to kill me?) Much better, thanks for your concern, Senior Jiu Wu. (Thank goodness we compared notes.) (It’s not good for Ao Yi to keep pestering the Xiaoqiong Peak.) (Maybe I should knock him out at night and throw him out.) [World Gossip News] [Manhunt Order] (I might be assassinated by the Dragon.) (Life matters. I must come out quickly.) (Adjust the superficial disguise.) [Level Seven of Virtual Refining] ( Since you’ve broken through the bottleneck, just come out.) [Loving Duxian Group] (Ao Yi is challenging you again.) (Ao Yi has ascended to immortality.) (But I am only in the Virtual Refining Realm. ) ( It’s difficult for me to win.) (Master,) (I have a strategy that won’t involve fighting Ao Yi) (and can still ensure Duxian’s victory.) A challenge in array formations? That’s fine. (Jiu Wu, you’ re too ruthless.) (You can’t even break this formation, yet you expect Ao Yi to.) (Senior, if you’re not being cautious this time,) (you’re going to give yourself away.) [Typing …] (Senior Changshou,) (I didn’t expect you to be skilled not only in alchemy) (but also in array formations.) (Changshou, I got dizzy as soon as I entered your formation.) (Ao Yi will definitely not get through.) (Changshou,) (after this battle, you will definitely gain the sect’s attention.) (Let’s thank Senior Jiu Wu.) (Nothing. No need to thank.) (Thank him? Not a chance! ) (Heavens, take this stupid guy away.) As long as you exit this large array without forcibly breaking the array base, Prince Ao Yi will be considered the winner. Please. (I can only adapt as things happen.) ( This formation ) (will be the first stepping stone in my fame.) Junior Ao Yi, this array doesn’t look mysterious. It surely won’t trap you. I’ll wait to celebrate your victory. (Junior uncle Ao Yi, good luck.) [Big Brother] [Lost?] (I am back here again!) (Water Condensing Spirit Pearl,) (seal this chain of trapping arrays!) [Open Harm] [Live] (Such an ancient innate treasure from the primordial era. ) (No wonder it could interrupt the operation of the large array,) (and make the Live Gate appear.) (However…) (Ice Crystal Sword,) (destroy this small area for me!) (Another innate treasure!) (Ao Yi is rich in resources!) (However, his mastery of arrays is embarrassingly poor.) [Lost?] (Have the Dragon become so inept) (in the art of arrays?) This array is quite mysterious. I almost couldn’t get out myself. Senior uncle Jiu Wu, you ‘re kidding me. This is just the most common maze array. Master, Junior uncle Ao Yi has joined the sect for a short time and has learned limited things. We have studied some art of array. We’d like to give it a try. I believe you can break the array. A good master is having a terrible mouth. I’m sure I can break this array! They’ve been defeated after all. Well then , I’ll take them out of the array. Senior, hold on. I’ll open it. (It’s time to show the real mastery in arrays) (of the Golden Turtle Island.) (I’m lost too?) (I can’t let others know.) I can still get up as a dragon! Junior Ao Yi, I am here to rescue you! (Even a Celestial Immortal is trapped.) (Changshou’s mastery in arrays) (is indeed remarkable.) (Changshou,) (as for the outstanding immortal seedling ,) (you’re set for it.) (Whoever wants it, not me!) The Golden Turtle Island is just so-so. Junior uncle Jiu Jiu, since you’re drawing fire to yourself, you won’t mind if I divert some trouble your way, right? The impressive power of this array is thanks to junior uncle Jiu Jiu’s remarkable contribution. This great array has always relied on your profound and pure magical power to operate. Right, Junior? Of course. Every spirit stone in the array base was embedded by you. That senior uncle Jiu Wu’s recommended is very reliable. But Xiaoqiong Peak really needs a Real Immortal to guide the array formation. We need a Real Immortal ! Real Immortal… She! She is a Real Immortal . Go ask her! Senior! It seems there is such a thing. No wonder I kept going in circles in the array. It was laid out by Junior Jiu Jiu. Is that so? I didn’t realize I was so capable. It must be a talent. Junior uncle Jiu Jiu’s strength is formidable. It’s normal for you to be unable to break through. Don’t be discouraged by this. I’ve lost. I acknowledge your mastery in arrays. Master, why are you in the array too? I came to find you. Now, my Golden Turtle Island has lost one round. I wonder if you could have another round with Junior Ao Yi. Of course, it’s not about winning or losing. It’s just to help my junior overcome his inner demons. A challenge between an immortal and a non-immortal, is that fair? Please, Senior Yuan Ze, seal my cultivation to the Virtual Refining Realm. [Level Seven of Virtual Refining] That’s fair now. Then let’s have another round. Don’t let people think the Duxian fears battle. (This familiar plot development…) Yes. Prince Ao Yi, today’s battle is a bit different from the East Sea Conference. I might win dishonorably. You’ve already beaten me in the art of arrays. This battle is eagerly sought by me. Feel free to make your move. (For the face of the Duxian,) (I must win this battle.) ( But the key is how to win.) Such fast escape techniques. (So winning dishonorably) (means avoiding direct confrontation.) (Since it’s so, I’ll force you to show yourself!) Still not coming out after all this blasting? This person’s fighting style is really indescribable. Anyway, Prince Ao Yi can’t do anything against the Earth Escape. That can be said Changshou stands undefeated. (Using escape techniques to avoid direct combat,) (even if he wins,) (- Where could he be hiding? – others would also think it’s by tricks.) (Senior is indeed cautious.) (My talisman fire can’t break his immortal armor,) (I need to switch to a sharper magical weapon.) (With such dense attacks,) (I have no time to carefully search for his whereabouts.) If they keep fighting like this, Junior uncle Ao Yi will be turned into a porcupine. What kind of magical weapon is this? Can he still breathe after being smashed with it? Junior uncle Ao Yi isn’t that tall anyway! Don’t smash him! Hold on, we admit defeat! Lost. I’ve lost again. I’ve offended you . Can we call this a draw this time ? Your Lady, our disciples sent to preach in the South Sea have lost contact. Let the Crow Demon’s people check on it. By the way, any movements from the Taoist sect? I heard the Golden Turtle Island is exchanging insights with the Duxian. What a perfect opportunity to stir up relations within Taoist sect. Duxian [Episode 20] Changshou. No. Brother Changshou, such a bright and clear night stirs my heart. I will contemplate deeply upon returning to my sect. Ao Yi, you’re very welcome. Thank you for hosting us these past few days. We will be leaving now. Immortal Zhongyu and Immortal Wangqing, a communication jade from Xiaoyao Immortal Sect, the Human Taoism has arrived. (Hope this letter finds you well.) (Recently , the Chan Taoism’s Yun Zhongzi) (and the Jie Taoism’s Duobao Daoren) (have started a dispute in Zhongshen Continent.) (Disciples from both sects have joined the fray.) (Our sect attempted mediation but failed.) (We hope you can help.) (Sincerely, Xiaoyao Immortal Sect) (The Human, Chan, and Jie Taoism all belong to the Taoism.) (The Chan Taoism and the Jie Taoism have been in conflict for years, ) (and it’s often our Human Taoism that mediates.) (We should indeed accept Xiaoyao Immortal Sect’s invitation) (and help resolve this matter.) The Chan Taoism and our sect are at it again. I won’t waste words. I’ m heading to Zhongshen Continent to support our Jie Taoism. After all, the three sects are one family. It’s getting dark. Yuan Ze, why don’t you stay here tonight? Tomorrow, I will send someone with you to Zhongshen Continent to settle this dispute. How does that sound? Well , that might be best. Tomorrow, you two should head back to Golden Turtle Island first. Jiu Wu, you will accompany Yuan Ze to Zhongshen Continent tomorrow. Yes. Senior uncle, this is the Corroding Spirit Pill, refined by Presbyter Wan Linjun, for self-defense. Be sure to hold your breath when using it to avoid harming yourself. Kid, you’re thoughtful. Senior uncle, be sure to remember this pill is highly toxic. Don’ t use it rashly unless it’s a matter of life and death. Senior, what exactly is the dispute between the Chan Taoism and the Jie Taoism about? Why is our sect so eager to mediate? The main characters in this conflict (are Chan Taoism’s Yun Zhongzi) [Yun Zhongzi, Duobao Daoren] (and Jie Taoism’s Duobao Daoren.) (Heard that they both love magical weapons.) (However, Yun Zhongzi likes to make replicas,) (while Duobao Daoren collects genuine items.) (Perhaps it’s because of a weapon) (that they started arguing.) Your magical weapon is fake! No, yours is! (Some people are not good at arguing,) (so they quickly enter) (the typical process of a dispute,) (which is called gathering people.) [Yun Zhongzi, Chi Jingzi] (Both have called ) (and juniors for support.) [Duobao Daoren] (The squabble between the two) (has escalated into a conflict between the two sects.) (Thus,) (as one of the three sects of Taoism,) (our Human Taoism , which usually stays out of Chan and Jie’s disputes,) (has to intervene.) [Human Taoism] (Xiaoyao Immortal Sect failed to mediate) (and called us Duxian) (to gather people.) It’s such a trivial matter, yet it’s caused such a big fuss. The conflict between the Chan Taoism and the Jie Taoism has a long history, tracing back to the founding of their respective sages. I hope senior uncle Jiu Wu’s mediation efforts will not be in vain. Your Lady, Duxian and Golden Turtle Island have sent representatives to Zhongshen Continent to mediate between the Chan Taoism and the Jie Taoism. The conflict between these two sects might escalate into a dispute involving all three sects. I understood, Your Lady. There are too many mosquitoes. There’s an ambush! It’s an Isolation Formation! We need to break out before it fully activates. The Fire Fervor Birds are usually gentle. Why would they suddenly attack? Something is amiss. The Fire Fervor Birds are coming in a big way. (The strength of the leader of the Fire Fervor Birds) (is nearing the peak of the Celeste Realm.) (Although I’m also in Celeste Realm,) (I’m no match for it.) (We are trapped by the Isolation Formation) (We must find a way to break the formation quickly.) Thunder and Separating Fire, Creation of Heaven, Luotian Yang Thunder, arise! Sword light shimmering, shadows flying like shuttles, the Myriad Shadows Sword Formation, go! The Isolation Formation is broken! There are too many demons. Let’s split up and break through. Be careful! (The seal on the pill bottle is broken.) (Senior uncle Jiu Wu is in trouble!) I can’t contact Jiu Wu either. Something must have happened to him. I’m going to find Master right now. [Big Brother] Changshou, if it weren’t for the poison pill you gave me, I really wouldn’t have been able to see you again. What exactly happened back then? Jiu Wu and his group should have been ambushed by the Fire Fervor Birds. Two Presbyters from Duxian were killed, Jiu Wu was seriously injured, and Yuan Ze and others are missing. There’s also no news from Golden Turtle Island. Fire Fervor Birds? Why would they suddenly attack people from Duxian and Golden Turtle Island? This is not simple. After we killed these Fire Fervor Birds, a streak of blood light flashed across their bodies. Upon closer inspection of their corpses, I found that their primordial spirits had been drained, indicating they had been dead for quite some time. It seems their primordial spirits were being controlled. Controlling primordial spirits? Such a sinister technique is unheard of. Later, although Master saved me, my life was hanging by a thread. Fortunately, Presbyter Qi Ling saved my life. Presbyter Qi Ling? Is he the one who always guards the Sanctum of Taoist Scriptures? Yes, he’s the only Supreme Presbyter in our sect and one of the two Golden Immortals. He seems to have encountered this kind of sinister technique before. No, it should be a species – they are called Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings. Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings. Presbyter Qi Ling. [Presbyter Qi Ling, Duxian] They are mysterious, bloodthirsty, and elusive. They control others by attaching to and absorbing their bone blood. The true culprit controlling the Fire Fervor Birds was just a group of mosquitoes? Never underestimate these mosquitoes. In ancient times, with similar techniques, they caused an internal strife in a race, even leading to the extinction of the race. They wiped out a race without leaving a trace. Is there no way to identify them? Since it’s so easy for them to wipe out a race , what about our Duxian… (Recently, there have been disturbances caused) (by Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings.) (These mosquitoes are ferocious.) (All peaks should be on high alert for them.) We have also started to be on guard against the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings. These are truly troubled times. (The mosquitoes…) (During the Name List Catastrophe,) (among the disciples of Zhunti Daoren in Xifang Taoism,) (there was indeed a mosquito) (capable of controlling others’ primordial spirits. ) (It killed disciples of the Jie Taoism) (and damaged the treasure of the Xifang Taoism.) (Could it be the Black Mosquito with Bloody Wings?) Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings are long disappeared. Since they suddenly appear now, there must be a reason. Could it be related to the Chan-Jie conflict? The Duxian and the Golden Turtle Island were attacked on their way to mediate conflicts. Clearly, someone is colluding with them. Yuan Ze? Perhaps he didn’t wish for Chan and Jie to reconcile, so he wanted to eliminate Jiu Wu secretly. If it’s true, after severely injuring Jiu Wu and his group, Yuan Ze would likely blame everything on the Fire Fervor Birds since there would be no evidence to prove otherwise. But strangely , he’s missing. Right. He could be fleeing from guilt or hiding in the shadows, waiting to strike. What is the truth? (The key to solving this mystery lies in Yuan Ze.) (After Jiu Wu’s group was attacked,) ( Yuan Ze was nowhere to be found on Golden Turtle Island.) (He’s not dead,) (so where did he go?) (Why is there no news of him?) (If he was captured,) (it must be by the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings.) (Then why would they capture Yuan Ze and the others?) (Without the Corroding Spirit Pill,) (Jiu Wu would likely have died.) (as the two accompanying Presbyters did.) (Clearly,) (the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings intended to annihilate Duxian.) (But for what?) (The Chan Taoism and the Jie Taoism are in conflict.) (The mastermind behind the scene intended to kill the mediators) (from Human Taoism Duxian, ) (but not those from the Jie Taoism – Golden Turtle Island.) (What are they planning?) (Yuan Ze’s disappearance,) (combined with the special abilities of the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings,) ( means Duxian is no longer safe now.) I am Yuan Ze from Golden Turtle Island. What do you want to do? I’m telling you, don’t think of threatening me! I will never listen to you! Greetings to Your Lady . After absorbing the Bloody Lotus , you can become Golden Immortals in one leap. Then, lead the Demon to annihilate Duxian. Remember, the annihilation of Duxian is the goal. Yes. Plan the Fire Fervor Birds’ surprise attack and then control the Qi Cultivators of Golden Turtle Island using the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings to strike at Duxian. Your Lady is truly brilliant. This time, we will make the Three Sects of Taoism suffer a great loss. Only then will the one above be satisfied. [Episode 21] Everyone, swear to defend Duxian to the death! (We have thousands of disciples.) ( Most of them have not yet become immortals.) (Hundreds of disciples and presbytes) are above the level of Meta Immortal Realm.) (No one knows how many) (will perish in this bloody catastrophe .) I swear to defend Duxian to the death! I swear to defend Duxian to the death! (To counter the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings,) (I urgently formed an army of paper men,) (dividing all of them by strength from strongest to weakest) (into five major squads : Ghost, God, Heaven, Earth, and Human.) (They are stationed in ambush at Duxian,) (able to change into various forms at will.) (Hope they can defend Duxian. ) (Luckily, I had earlier installed) (the Dicoria Three-headed Spider silk for surveillance.) [Character Di Paper Men] (Character Di Paper Men) (are specialized in poison warfare and formations.) (They are the first line of defense I’ve set outside Duxian.) (Although I successfully repelled the vanguard,) (the great battle at Duxian is inevitable.) (I’ll leave the enemy corpses to you, Character Ren Paper Man.) (Who is this great woman?) (I can’t seem to find her primordial spirit.) (Here they are!) (3,000 li away,) (enemy forces appear in the northwest direction.) (Seems like after being controlled,) (these guys also have mental issues.) (It’s so soon !) (Our defense lines have been breached.) Form the Protective Array. Let’s fight against these evil demons! Master, I’m sorry! Oh my god. I’m in bed with Senior . The great demons attacking this time have cultivation levels ranging from the Meta Immortal Realm to the Celestial Realm. Master is just a turbid immortal. I’m afraid Master may have difficulty coping. I will explain to him later. Let’s go quickly! [Big Brother] Remember, the annihilation of Duxian is the goal. Three Golden Immortals are they! A single strike from a Golden Immortal could repel so many Celestial Immortals in Duxian. [Real Immortal] (The Taoism of the Golden Immortal) [Golden Immortal ] (has long been recognized by the Dao of Heaven,) (granted the ability to accompany the Dao) (and attained eternal life.) (Facing a Golden Immortal,) (all my plans are futile.) (Even if all the Celestial Immortals in Duxian were to charge forth today, ) (it would merely be a march to our doom.) (Presbyter Qi Ling, a Golden Immortal in Duxian) Taking on three by yourself? You’re courting death! Myriad Shadows Sword Formation. (There are only two Golden Immortals in Duxian) .) (The other one is the Sect Master.) (But the Sect Master has been in closed-door cultivation for years,) (I don’t know…) Who brats dare to invade our sect? The Sect Master has got out . (The Sect Master represents the last line of defense for Duxian.) If the Sect Master falls… Ji Wuyou is out here. Duxian has no way out now. (The grand array is broken. ) (Jiu Wu, follow my order. ) (Activate the Teleportation Array.) (All disciples who have not yet become immortals,) (immediately enter the grand array for relocation.) (The Teleportation Array is activated.) (This array moves along the earth’s ley lines,) (which can appear thousands of miles away in an instant.) Go quickly! Every escapee adds a glimmer of hope for Duxian’s future. Hurry! – Ling’e, take Master and go first. – Senior, aren’t you coming? Go quickly. (Duxian is in grave danger.) (There’s only one way left.) (Junior Youqin,) (you have an important mission now.) What mission? I’m willing to defend Duxian to the death! (It’s not about dying.) (It’s asking) (you to cry.) I am Youqin Xuanya, a disciple from Duxian. Now I want to activate the source of our sect’s Taoism. Taiqing Sage from Humam… (Senior, I’ve long abandoned worldly desires ,) (I can’t cry.) (Imagine you have a beloved pet.) (One day, it gets crushed by a rock, ) (and passeed away unfortunately.) (You buried it. ) (But now you find out ) (its body) has been dug up and roasted. Just like that! Keep going. Duxian honors Du’e Immortal as the founding ancestor because he was a disciple of Taiqing Sage. Thus Duxian is considered the orthodox lineage of the Human . is besieged by a group of demons. Taiqing Sage, please examine it. Taiqing Sage, please help Duxian! (Regardless of whether the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings are backed) (by the Xifang Taoism,.) (the aim is to incite conflict among the Three Sects of Taoism.) (This matter involves a conflict of sages.) (Only Taiqing Sage from Human can resolve this.) (Youqin has a pure heart.) (She’s the perfect candidate to cry and ask Taiqing for help. ) (Hope Taiqing Sage can hear us.) It’s the Teleportation Array. Thinking of letting disciples escape? Dream on it! Attack the Teleportation Array! Stop them. Evil-breaking Cloud. Flame-out Bright Light. (Presbyter Qi Ling shows his true form.) (He’s preparing for a fight to the death.) (Yuanze? How did they become Golden Immortals) (and why are they here?) Since you’ve found me out, don’ t blame me for being ruthless. Attack! I must stop them. These demons are audaciously attacking this mountain. We two were just passing by, slaying demons and exorcising evil, to defend the people. If you dare, face me head-on! I curse your demonic ancestors! I curse your demonic ancestors! Tear him apart! (Character Tian Paper Men excel in adaptability.) (They’re used to lure enemies into the array.) [Lost?] Taiqing Sage, please help Duxian! [Episode 22] (Thus Duxian is considered the orthodox lineage of the Human.) (Duxian is besieged by a group of demons.) (Taiqing Sage, please examine it.) (Taiqing Sage, please help Duxian!) (Master, they are worshiping) (your portrait. ) (You prefer not to show up in person.) (But I also want to focus on my cultivation.) [Xuandu, Human] (Well then,) (let me see what has happened.) (The Human adheres to the principle of non-interference,) (striving to engage in as little cause and effect as possible) (and focus on cultivating virtue and good deeds.) (But that does not mean we do nothing in all matters. ) (Duxian was founded by my junior, Du’e.) (Perhaps it’s better to take him along.) The portrait responds! Duxian may be helped! (This matter is settled. Masters from the Human will surely come to aid.) (Keep this message) (between us, Junior Youqin. Please speak of it to no one else.) (Senior Changshou remains as ever uninterested in fame.) We can’t hold them off much longer! All disciples, quickly enter the Teleportation Array. I am back again! (Initiating the second wave of the feintaction.) (There’s only one last group of disciples left.) (I must ensure the teleportation proceeds smoothly.) [Bamboo] [Sand] [Snow] [Thunder] (With the Character Tian Paper Men coordinating with the array,) (we’ve eliminated a third of the enemy’s strength.) (We’ve finally managed to buy enough time.) So many puppets died, and nothing was accomplished. Good for nothing! Looks like I must take a risk myself. [Qingyi Cangpeng, Demon] (Demons, listen to my order.) (Attack with full force!) (Don’t let anyone escape!) (Qingyi Cangpeng is of the Celestial Realm .) (How come it exerts power even greater than a Golden Immortal?) ( These two are of the Real Immortal Realm.) (Why is their power comparable to that of the Celestial Realm?) (- This is not the real form! ) (- This is not the real form!) You two chivalrous men, don ‘t! (These two Character Tian Paper Men) (have fulfilled their task of luring the demons.) (And they are now tied with cause and effect. ) (It is time to resolve this once and for all.) They would rather sacrifice their very souls to protect the disciples of our sect. If Duxian survives, I vow to erect monuments and hold memorials in honor of you two chivalrous men. (Do you think blowing up the array will keep you safe?) (The Earth’s Veins ) (are transformed from the meridians of Pangu) (who’s the only Wu Chi Chaotic Sage.) (Their directions and trends can be traced.) (And the Earth’s Veins connected by the Teleportation Array) (will certainly have remnants of magical power. ) I’ve found you. It’s too late! This demon’s cultivation is above mine. There’s no chance of winning in a direct fight. I have a way to repel this strong enemy. (Thinking of running? Not a single one from Duxian shall escape!) The sleeping drug plan has failed. I’ll use Earth Escape with Senior Youqin to escape. Junior, the real combat experience is over. It’s okay for you to faint now. Senior, you are indeed… (Now we’ve achieved) (the illusion of everyone passing out.) (Maybe it will draw Qingyi Cangpeng closer.) [Big Brother] (Finishing blow? Did I meet someone just like me?) (Such a formidable opponent.) (Character Shen Paper Man ) (Out.) (In the five grades) (of Gui, Shen, Tian, ​​​​Di, and Ren,) (the Character Shen Paper Man’s cultivation) is only second to the Character Gui Paper Man,) (and it carries (most suitable for high-end magical combat,) ( and can also disguise as Senior Jiu Wu,) (deceiving those behind the scenes.) (Miniature version of the Seventy-Two Array.) (Activate!) (Take this chance to move everyone underground.) (The Azure Water Encirclement Array, rise.) (The Severe Cold Killing Array, activate.) (The Corrupting Poison Array,) (disperse.) (Ternary Fire.) Taoist Mosquito. It’s very likely you. But no matter if you’re a Golden Immortal Daluo or a ferocious being in the world, here and now, you’re just a sliver of spiritual consciousness. It hasn’t been long since I ascended to immortality, and I’ve already indirectly come to face with the ancient ferocious Taoist Mosquito. The world is more perilous than I thought. My spirit came in person, and before I could do anything, I was burnt to ashes. Who’s talking? (No matter how I thought, I couldn’t deduce who you are.) (He’s managed to force out the cloaking spell) (set by the one above for me.) (Using the power of the Taiji Diagram,) (I can’t figure out your identity for sure.) (It must be a certain Senior Sage covering for you.) (The Taiji Diagram?) (Isn’t that the supreme treasure of the Taiqing Sage?) (Could it be that he is—) I am Xuandu, the foremost disciple under Taiqing Sage of the Human. (This is the great Taoist Master Xuandu,) (who even dares to beat the Demon King.) You’ve caused harm to Human lineage without any reason, and your intentions are malicious. Fortunately, Duxian still stands. (Still stands?) (How is that possible?) Master! (The master of our Sect Master.) (Isn’t that the founder of Duxian?) [Du’e, Duxian] (Du’e Immortal!) (Two Sages have arrived one time .) (It will be the end of my life!) I’ll spare you for now. Please relay a message to that Senior Sage. Rather than causing internal conflict within the Taoist sects and accruing sins, it would be better to teach and transform the Human. Doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is the right path. As for you, if you dare to offend the Human again, no one will be able to protect you. The plan failing is no big deal, but my life matters. I dare not. (The surroundings are safe now. The real body can show up now.) (For paper army, start retrieving now.) (Next, maintain the fainting state) (and wait for the sect’s help.) (Why are they all lying here?) (Where are the other disciples? ) Senior Jiu Wu, Ling’e, Xuanya, what happened to you? Where is Changshou? (Why have they all come?) (Is it still time to pretend to faint?) As you said, Senior Xuandu, these three’s primordial spirits have been depleted and become puppets. Let’s first visit the Golden Turtle Island to explain the situation. Junior Du’e, when it concerns a Sage, it’s best not to spread the word . It’s said this matter is related to a Sage. Senior Xuandu , rest assured, I am the most tight-lipped. Duxian knows nothing. They’ve already gone to receive the disciples. [Episode 23] Changshou, where are you? Changshou ! Senior. We’ve been drugged. The other disciples are in the woods next to the exit of the Teleportation Array. You go quickly. – Changshou! – Changshou! Changshou. Master. I am fine. I previously drugged you… It was all for my sake. I don’t blame you. Master . (My silly junior has blown our cover.) (Li Changshou, you pretended to be sick and lied to me.) I didn’t, Master. I’ve said I’m fine. It was all a misunderstanding on your part . Caught you, Senior. All of this was forced on me by Senior. It’s not my fault. Lan Ling’e! Li Changshou! Senior, you taught me, It’s better one dies than two. – Sect Master. – Junior. It’s nothing. I struggled to grasp the new spell Master taught and spat out some blood, that’s all. This battle cost our sect dearly, with heavy losses among the elders and peak masters. Fortunately, the disciples who have yet to become immortals were spared. (The other day,) (Master and the Great Mage) (made a trip to the Golden Turtle Island for us.) They’ve thoroughly clarified the reasons behind this. The Twin Sages of Xifang prosper the west by fair means or foul. (They’ve controlled many major demons.) (Among them, the instigator of the conflicts among the three sects,) (is the Taoist Mosquito.) This must be reported to our sect, and we must double our vigilance. Senior, what benefit does the Taoist Mosquito gain by letting the Taoist Mosquito incite discord among the Taoist sects? (In years past, the Twin Sages of Xifang became sages with a grand vow,) (effectively taking out from the Dao of Heaven) [Bank Dao of Heaven: Transfer of 1,000,000,000… merits] (a massive loan of merits to become sages,) (and pledged to greatly prosper the West.) (Today, with the Three Sects of Taoism widespread across the world,) (the Xifang Taoism has no chance to flourish.) (If they cannot repay the loan,) (the Twin Sages of Xifang) (might face severe penalties from the Dao of Heaven.) [Loan Contract] [Xifang Taoism] (Since the straightforward path does not lead to the flourishing of the West,) the Twin Sages resorted to underhanded tactics. (They recruited the Taoist Mosquito to stir up discord) (among the Three Sects of Taoism,) (to weaken the influence of the Taoist sects ,) [Xifang] (thus earning merits) (and strengthening the Xifang Taoism.) To earn merits, they went too far! Junior, what should we do now? Since this battle was initiated by sages, it must also be concluded by sages . (With Master and the Great Mage stepping in,) (the Xifang Taoism won’t dare to cause trouble in the short term.) (Now, Yuanze and the others’ souls) (have been sent to the Six Paths for Reincarnation. ) The conflict among the Three Sects has thus been calmed. All we can do is to urge our sect to diligently practice, so as to guard against the Xifang Taoism’s further actions. The Six Paths for Reincarnation originally planned to reincarnate Yuanze into the Humans. But just before drinking the Forgetfulness Soup, Yuanze said something. What did he say? He said, “Don’t worry, reincarnation is a minor matter. It shouldn’t be a problem.” And then? Right after drinking the Forgetfulness Soup , he was swept away by a wave from the River of Six Paths and cast into the Animal Realm. In his next life, he’s likely to be a black leopard. Master … (Those two from the Xifang are truly detestable.) (Great Mage ,) this is the marital fate soon to be encountered by Duxian. After the great battle, Duxian suffered significant losses. I intended to help it prosper, but my master forbids me from taking on more disciples. There is only to speed up the formation of Taoist couples to propagate offspring as an option. I have no choice but to trouble you, Matchmaker. [Matchmaker, Heavenly Court] Great Mage, please have a look. [Shou] Everyone has developed affection, except this male disciple under the Three Stars Surround the Moon, who remains unchanged. Matchmaker, perhaps you could help him. My Beloved. So, Senior likes this kind of woman. Lan Ling’e! Copy my newly developed Stability Scriptures three hundred times. [Stability Scriptures] (Lately , my thoughts have been in turmoil.) (I should consult the scriptures.) Shoushou, how do I look in this new dress and makeup? Senior, our sect has just survived a battle of life and death. Rather than focusing on appearances, we should prioritize improving our cultivation. [Model of the Immortal Sect] Senior Changshou. Senior Changshou, I have a question about formations to consult you on. Junior Youqin, I ‘m in a hurry to go into seclusion. This is my collection of formation scriptures, which might enlighten you. (I’m pressed for time and must leave first.) This talented individual of the immortal sect seems too detached from worldly emotions. Then what does he really want? Born to go, don’t meddle in the idle. Even as an immortal, hard to vie for the lead. [Big Brother] I know my mistake. I’ve failed in my duties. Please spare me this time. I promise, next time I’ll definitely complete the task you assign. (Your Lady.) Come in. How are things in the South Sea? [Crow Demon, Demons] At your command, I went to the South Sea and learned that recently, a new sect flourishing in merits has emerged. The Taoist sects have been strong for a long time and are difficult to deal with. Why not start with such a new sect? (Although the Xifang Taoism lost this battle,) (they will not give up so easily.) (Reflecting on this battle, I killed many demons with great sins ,) (I must have earned a lot of merits, right?) (The Dao of Heaven has established individual accounts) (for every creature in the world,) (for distributing merits and sins.) (To ensure safety,) (I always carry the Fire Virtue Jade with me.) (It not only shields my origin from others’ conjectures) [Li Changshou’s Personal Account] ( but also intercepts the merits and sins) [(Intercepted Merits Income)] (distributed by the Dao of Heaven) (outside my personal account,) [Merits Income, Sins Deduction, Merits Subtotal] (awaiting to receive them all at once.) (Sins?) (What sins have I committed?) Recently, the Shrimp Demons caused havoc, killing many of our followers. During the battle, innocent civilians were accidentally killed as well. (Shrimp Demons) (This matter is even related to the Dragon Palace.) This is too much! It’s a provocation. [Xiong Buhan, Xiong Village] Exactly , Village Chief. We can’t just let them bully us. Yes, indeed. – Right. – Exactly. I understand your feelings. We’re holding this ceremony to seek the god’s blessing. Just donate some incense money, buy and release the fish. And the god, feeling your sincerity, will surely bless you doubly. (That’s not right.) (What does buying and releasing fish have to do with the god?) (Most of the followers make their living by fishing,) (and there are fish everywhere.) (Why should they buy fish from the Village Chief for release?) (It seems the Village Chief wants to profit in the name of the god.) Release for blessings! (This must be the temple priest .) (Why is he sneaking around and meeting with this crow?) We have an inside agent in the South Sea Dragon Palace reporting back. (The South Sea Dragon Palace is ready for battle.) They will soon attack. You can rest assured , Your Grace. Through my efforts, (they now harbor a deep hatred) (towards the South Sea Dragon Palace,) (and are ready to fight to the death against it.) Good. When both sides are in chaos and too busy to take care of the situation, we’ll send the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings to drain the merits. (At that time…) Her Lady’s plan is truly ingenious. (Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings. Her Lady.) (It’s another plot by the Taoist Mosquito and the Xifang Taoism.) (They’ve planted insiders in both Xiong Village) (and the Dragon Palace,) (sparking conflict between the two,) (to then steal merits opportunistically.) (What a vicious scheme!) Your Highness, just a few days ago, we dealt with them, and yet today, they still dare to hold a ceremony. I’ve summoned all the dragon offspring nearby the South Sea to assist. [Ao Mou, Crown Prince of the South Sea] Let’s give them a thorough beating. (Cousin Ao Mou.) What are you little kid doing here? Cousin Ao Mou, I’ve been practicing recently on Golden Turtle Island in the South Sea. (I heard you’ve summoned the dragon offspring,) (and intended on attacking Xiong Village’s ceremony.) (Cousin, there are many innocent civilians at the ceremony.) (Rashly starting a war) (will only add more sins to the Dragons.) The Dragons have borne an enormous amount of sins for millions of years, why fear adding a few more strokes? Naval Forces of the South Sea, heed my command. Flatten the Xiong Village! Yes! (Strange. What does all this mess) (have to do with my merits?) Could it be that the divine sect of Xiong Village is… Please bless us, Sea God! Sea God! Sea God! The Sea God will surely protect us . Sea God! Sea God! Didn’t I already destroy that statue? How come there are 1,620 more? The battle between the Dragons and the Sea God Sect, killing civilians, must be the cause of my sins. (Once the Sea God Sect gets involved in the war,) (as the nominal Sea God,) (I will bear immense sins.) (Minimally it will trigger divine punishment,) (or at worst, a catastrophe.) (I must prevent the war from happening,) (and then find a way to dissolve the Sea God Sect.) Army of Paper Men, go! Let’s go! How dare you call yourselves the Sea God Sect? Leave that Sea God statue to you to smash. Cousin. (That’s Ao Yi.) Don’t smash! (How did he end up in the South Sea?) (Oh no ,) (he knows my true face) (and now my big face is engraved on the Sea God statue.) (It’s over. My identity will be exposed.) (Senior Changshou?) [Episode 24] (If Ao Yi reveals that the Sea God is Li Changshou, a disciple of Duxian,) (the Taoist Mosquito, the Twin Sages of Xifang,) (and all sorts of evil consequences will come to me.) (I might end up dead and my Taoism might be obliterated .) [Stability Scriptures] (Stay calm.) (Secure longevity and prosperity with stability.) (If I go astray, advance by retreating.) (Although Changshou is very competent,) (he has yet to become an immortal,) ( let alone a Sea God.) (Ao Yi.) Chang… (Quiet.) (To properly resolve the conflict between the South Sea Dragon Palace) (and the Sea God Sect,) (please come to discuss with me in detail.) The first step in persuading the young dragon: Peaceful negotiation leads to great achievements. What about Chang? Are you still going to smash the Sea God statue? Well… This way, disputes will never end. I’m going to see the Sea God now. Cousin, please don’t act rashly before I return. Ridiculous. The Dragons are the true sovereign of the seas. Are we supposed to take orders from this nonsensical Sea God? Thank you, Changshou, for your guidance. I was unaware of the Xifang Taoism’s instigation and nearly made a grave mistake. The second step in persuading the young dragon: No one understands me as well as Changshou. The Dragons have borne tremendous sins of shattering the world for generations. I’m aware of the great efforts you’ve made to resolve this predicament. You truly understand me! But about the Sea God Sect… (The third step in persuading the young dragon:) (Advance by retreating, as the king of acting.) It’s a long story. In short, I didn’t establish the Sea God Sect. You should understand the feeling of being compelled. (That’s right. ) (The sages also need more merits.) (The sages of the Humans didn’t want to come forward personally ,) (so they chose Changshou to manage the Sea God Sect.) (He’s just so uninterested in fame and fortune.) Rest assured, Changshou, I swear to the Dao of Heaven that I will not reveal a word of this. (It worked.) (Indeed,) (facing Ao Yi, a dragon with many thoughts,) (leaving things unsaid is the best answer.) I have a personal favor to ask for. I wonder if I could join the Sea God Sect to do good deeds and accumulate merits for our race. The South Sea Dragon Palace and the Sea God Sect are in conflict again. Please join me in quelling the conflict. Cousin, stop! (Do not further increase the slaughter.) It’s the Sea God. The Sea God has shown his divine power. The Sea God is so much stronger than me. Your Grace, the conflict between the South Sea Dragon Palace and the Sea God Sect was all instigated by traitors. Your Grace, please spare my life. I’ll confess everything. How dare you betray our race! Tell me. Who bribed you? First Crown Prince of the South Sea, I have no intention of ruling the seas. Fame and fortune are like fleeting clouds. Only leading people towards goodness is the correct path. I’ll leave these two traitors to you, hoping for peace in the South Sea. The Sea God has made things clear to me. All of this was a plot by the Xifang Taoism. We can follow these two insiders to continue our investigation. Sea God, I shouldn’t ‘t have improperly used your name for profit. Please punish me! As you have not caused a great disaster, you’re relieved of your position as Village Chief as punishment. From now on, the position of Village Chief will be held by Xiong Buhan. Your first task is to return all ill-gotten gains. Any objections? Since you, the Sea God , believe in me, I’ll definitely do my best! (Finally, it’s all settled.) (Although I had to persuade Ao Yi reluctantly,) (it prevented conflict and slaughter,) (and stopped the increase of the Dragons’ sins .) (As for the merits he needs,) (I’ll find another way for him.) (Anyway, disbanding the Sea God Sect comes first.) Today’s events weigh heavily on me. Since establishing the sect was not my intention, Perhaps… There are auspicious clouds! These are auspicious clouds condensed by merits from the Dao of Heaven. Even the Dao of Heaven has been moved by the Sea God’s righteous deeds. A good omen. Heaven blesses the Sea God and the Sea God Sect. Sea God! (Wait.) (With the congregation so emotionally charged,) (they surely won’t agree to disband.) [Li Changshou’s Personal Account (Intercepted)] [Merits Income] [Sins Deduction] [Merits Subtotal] (With so many merits descending from the Dao of Heaven,) [Sea God] [it seems the Sea God Sect is to be greatly expanded .) (If I keep refusing, I might offend the Lord of Heaven.) (I guess I have no choice but to become the Sea God.) (Stay calm.) (Who says being the Sea God has to be high-profile ?) (I can find a spokesperson.) (This well-known young dragon is a perfect choice.) [Big Brother] Second Prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace, I’m fortunate to have your assistance today. Would you be willing to join my sect, to serve as the Second Leader and also as the True Dragon Protector? Chang… You have been incredibly kind to me. I, Ao Yi, swear to promote and glorify the Sea God Sect. My cousin is inherently good, and his years of experience guarding the South Sea should be valuable. What about… (Ao Yi can shine as the Second Leader.) (It would be good to find him an assistant,) (so I can rest easy in the background,) (prepare for all eventualities,) (and keep my trump cards hidden.) First Crown Prince of the South Sea Dragon Palace, would you accept the position of the Second True Dragon Protector in my sect? (You must be joking.) I will fulfill this mission without disgrace! (The Sea God is truly magnanimous and forgiving.) I hope the followers will remember our sect’s teachings: to be thrifty and kind, protect the elderly and children, and not fear hardship for the sake of fortunate outcomes. (The most important thing is) (to avoid incurring any more sins.) The Sea God thrives. Peace reigns over the seas. Self-improvement will surely win. [Sea God Sect’s Five -Year Development Plan] Your Lady, next… [Lawsuit] (To live freely like the Sea God,) (I set off immediately to seek immortals and become a disciple.) [Lawsuit] [Sea God Sect’s Five-Year Development Plan] (Self-developed technique, Changing Faces with Makeup.) (This is a technique that blurs facial features,) (causing onlookers to forget immediately,) (leaving no accusation for others.) (Finally, I’ve applied makeup) (to all 1,621 Sea God statues.) (From now on, this image will represent the Sea God,) (hoping no one will associate it with) (Li Changshou, the disciple of the Humans.) (Who is this great immortal?) ( The Sensing Stone is all scrambled.) (His cultivation is extremely high.) Dong Mugong of Heaven is here. Why are you hiding evasively? (Dong Mugong,) (the previous life of Immortal Chunyang, Lu Dongbin,) (now the foremost male immortal of Heaven.) [Dong Mugong, Heaven] (When did I provoke such a significant figure?) What brings you here ? The Heaven has tasked me with overseeing the various sects and schools. Recently, there have been accusations that the Sea God Sect unscrupulously steals people’s merits, endangering the seas. Please come with me to clarify things. These two insiders indeed hold crucial information, forcing the mastermind behind them to silence them by killing them. They’ve all been controlled. Run. Your Lady , you’re very wise. A nameless lawsuit prompted the Heaven to intervene against the Sea God, then using the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings to control the South Sea naval forces to silence them. A clever move of misdirection, leaving no evidence behind. After several failures, the higher-ups have gradually lost trust in me. Only by preventing the insiders from exposing our secrets No matter what, I must succeed. Crow Demon, you go personally. (No. Dong Mugong won ‘t listen to a word of my explanation.) (Although the Heaven is currently in its difficult early stages,) (by the time of the later Investiture of the Gods,) (it will unite heaven and earth.) (Dealing with me , a mere Sea God,) (would be effortless.) You’ve finally come. Why didn’t you come in person , but with this paperman? (He saw through it at a glance.) (Who is he?) ( Only the one who was once attendant under the Taoist Ancestor,) (the sages’ junior,) (now the Jade Emperor) (who’s presiding over Heaven,) (Haotian.) [Jade Emperor, Heaven] I walk in the world as a paperman, just as Your Majesty descends to the mortal realm in an avatar, all due to circumstances beyond our control. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me. Your insight is so astonishing. No wonder you are worshiped by thousands as the Sea God, blessed with merits by the Dao of Heaven, and assisted by the Dragons. I don’t know what the circumstance beyond your control means. (Who reported me to Heaven?) (Bringing such a troublesome figure) (as the Jade Emperor) (and causing me such a big problem,) (my last resort is about to be exposed!) [Episode 25] You see everything clearly . No wonder you’re revered by thousands of congregations as the Sea God, blessed by the merits from the Dao of Heaven, with the Dragons by your side. I don’t know where your feeling of being compelled comes from. Your Majesty, there’s an old saying in my hometown, with great power comes great responsibility. Are you praising me or yourself? Never mind, as you can recognize my identity… I can recognize you with my eyes, but not with my heart. What do you mean? The Jade Emperor known to all, should reside in the Heaven, aiding the Taoist ancestors in upholding the Dao of Heaven. However, at present, based on mere slander, you personally come to apprehend me, truly diminishing the majesty of the Dao of Heaven. Thus, I can ‘t recognize you with my heart. In your eyes, what should I represent? To strengthen the Heavenly Court. The Six Sages worship the Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun as their master, (Then the Three Taoist Sages) (and the Twin Sages of Xifang each) (established their own sects and took followers.) (The Taoist Ancestor thus established the Heavenly Court) (as the executor of the Dao of Heaven) (to govern all beings,) (under your, the Jade Emperor’s, command) ( Yet the Three Realms only know of the Six Sages,) (not of the Heavenly Court.) (Your Majesty’s orders don’t spread throughout the continents,) (and your power doesn’t reach across the seas.) (Thus, there’s an urgent need to recruit talents) (to strengthen the Heavenly Court.) As the Sea God of the South Sea, you understand me very well. Indeed, I have personally visited the mortal realm, and found you deeply beloved. That lawsuit was indeed false. Was I right to come here? I dare to give any advice. [Retreat the Enemy by Twenty-six Steps] Do you understand the art of war? Warfare is the way of deception. Thus, when you are capable of fighting, make it appear that you are not. When you wish to do battle, make it appear that you do not. What does this mean? The essence of the art of war is quite simple. The key is in how the play is performed. Surrender your Dragon Leader, and you will be spared. Today, it is you who will perish! The Dragons’ navy, show yourselves! It’s an ambush! Form the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Array. Counter-encircle them! Since we’ve exposed the insiders from the Xifang Taoism, they will not stop there. When the time comes, we’ll use this strategy [Sea God Sect’s Five-Year Development Plan] to fight against them. (Changshou’s method of retreating the enemy is comprehensive.) (After this battle, I will compile it into a volume) (and present it to my father and the Jie Taoism,) (especially to my somewhat rash Senior) (Zhao Gongming.) Brilliant. Every detail interlocks. (Thanks to my senior from the Blue Star, Sun Tzu.) (His Art of War) (is a sacred text of military strategy even in the primordial world.) (It seems the Jade Emperor is very pleased with military strategies.) (Perhaps…) [The Twelve Remonstrances of the Heavenly Court] (To avoid being involved in the Name List Catastrophe,) (I’ve been secretly preparing several plans.) (Among these plans,) (due to the appearance of the Jade Emperor) (the most feasible one has now been revealed.) (That is, to accumulate a certain amount of merits) (and enter the Heavenly Court to serve.) (But getting close to the Jade Emperor) (risks exposing myself as not being prudent enough.) ( However, this is the best opportunity) (to align closely with the Heavenly Court.) Heaven and Earth are impartial; they treat all of creation as straw dogs. Your Majesty, earlier, I heard that the sage established the Heavenly Court for the beings of the three realms without seeking anything in return. I was deeply moved, and I hastily wrote the Twelve Remonstrances, hoping to offer them to the Heavenly Court to contribute my modest effort. Hard work for you. The Dragons actually set up an ambush in secret. Could it be that someone behind the scenes is directing them? Since you insist on fighting to the end, my children, transform, and kill them all! Crow Demon, you know what to do. Understood. Thank you, Your Lady, for your years of teaching. I will surely complete the mission today. With my flesh and blood, forge the body of a great army. (The swarm of Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings) (can strengthen themselves by consuming flesh and blood!) (Alas, the two insiders we caught) (have both died!) (Why hasn’t Changshou come yet? ) [Big Brother] The Heavenly Court stands here, Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings, cease your insolence. The Heavenly Court actually came to our rescue ? Accept of the Dragons? The Dragons’ sins are immense, and they’re still reminiscing about their ancient dominion. Why does the Heavenly Court seek to subdue the Dragons? How could they possibly be subdued? (The situation with Ao Yi is unclear .) (I have no choice but to His convince Majesty.) Subduing the Dragons brings two benefits: (The Four Seas are crucial territories of the Three Realms.) (And the Dragons are of ancient and powerful race.) (Despite their sins against heaven and earth,) (they possess numerous experts.) (If the Dragons were to serve the Heavenly Court,) (then the Four Seas would be united.) (This is the first benefit.) (If the Dragons were to manage the rivers and seas,) (it would enhance the majesty of the Heavenly Court.) This is the second benefit. Your Majesty, you must also foreseen that today’s false accusation case was ostensibly targeting me, but aimed at the Dragons. In this moment of crisis for the Dragons, why not… The Heavenly Court? Why would it interfere in the affairs of the Dragons? Sea God of the South Sea, it’s you again! You stole my merits in the South Sea , Now, I can’t afford to offend the Heavenly Court. But a wild god, can’t I kill one? (My master has sent another message.) (A subtle shift in fate has occurred. ) (All because of a junior follower from the Human Taoism.) (Master, do you mean…) (Accept of the Dragons?) ( It’s him.) I’m still unaware of your Taoist title. (If the Jade Emperor knows ) (that the Sea God is just a junior follower of the Human Taoism,) (there will be no sense of mystery.) (But I must not deceive them.) (There’s Venus in the east and Hesperus in the west.) (The star Hesperus.) (It signifies my name, Changshou.) (What a good idea!) I am known as the Taoist Hesperus. Hesperus . I never expected to turn misfortune into fortune. Taoist Mosquito? Why did she come to the Sea God Temple herself? Sea God of the South Sea, meet your end! What’s happening? Who are you, daring to be so arrogant? I can ‘t move. (I showed up too hastily. My heart aches.) (I must avoid entanglement with her at all costs.) (Someone else is coming.) The Twenty-four Sea -Calming Pearls. [Zhao Gongming, Jie Taoism] You’re Zhao Gongming from the Jie Taoism ! Why have you immobilized me? The Sea God of the South Sea is my nephew Ao Yi’s brother. The Taoist family is united as one. You forced the Sea God to show his true form. Take this! I don’t understand why he showed up either. (Senior, I am the Sea God of the South Sea.) (My true form is unharmed.) (Please stop here .) Then kill her directly. No! I have a plan. Get up. I’m going to Ling Mountain to demand an explanation. (Ling Mountain is where the Twin Sages of Xifang reside.) (If it escalates there,) (to protect the reputation of Xifang, ) (they would surely annihilate) (my Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings.) Fake it deliberately! You’ ve injured my Foundation of Dao. The injury is evidence. Don’t you feel ashamed? I can fake it, too. This is the Sea God’s magical artifact, the Voice-Image Sphere. It just recorded your self-harm. Are you trying to use this between the Taoist sect and the Xifang Taoism? Zhao Gongming, what exactly do you want? Let’s downplay this matter. Otherwise, I’ll have to take it to friends from all sects for a viewing. Look . Isn’t it thrilling? Fine. I swear to the Dao, let’s drop this matter. The Human Taoism. The Sea God of the South Sea. This follower is quite interesting. I, Zhao Gongming of the Jie Taoism, passed by here and met you, feeling quite refreshed. (Come on. Although you’re the future God of Wealth,) (I don’t want to make friends with you.) Nor do I want to share a bond of righteousness with you. Your sense of collective honor is too strong. No wonder in the Name List Catastrophe… (Fine. Let’s leave it at that.) I am Taoist Hesperus. I forgot that I still need to discuss the Conference of the Three Sects’ Origins with my peers . Farewell. The Conference of the Three Sects’ Origins, (is aimed at the Three Sects of Taoism to trace their origins together) Senior, the Sect Master has sent a message. You, as the leader of the followers, will head to the Conference of the Three Sects’ Origins with our sect in three days. I won’t go there. That place is where the sins and merits of the entire primordial world converge. You should go. Senior, who are you? (The Great Mage Xuandu.) (The Great Mage Xuandu) (was said to be one of the first batch of humans) (and the only follower of the Taiqing Sage) (in the Human Taoism .) Why are all these big shots rushing to find me? (Why does he want me at the Conference of the Three Sects’ Origins?) [Second Leader of the Sea God Sect] (Changshou,) (thanks to the Soul-Capturing Orb) (capturing the remnant souls and spirits of the Xifang Taoism’s insiders.) (I’ve uncovered their conspiracy .) The location of the Eye of the Four Seas has not yet been found. (They’re actually targeting the Eye of the Four Seas.) (The Eye of the Four Seas) (accumulates the sins of heaven and earth.) ( It erupts every few years, devouring living beings.) (The Dragons, to repay their sins,) (have always sent experts to fill the Eye with their bodies.) (The Eye of the Four Seas is the Dragons’ Achilles’ heel. ) (Once it is exposed,) (at best, we will be controlled by others.) (At worst, we’ll face the threat of extinction.) (This is urgent.) (I must inform my father about this matter) (to ensure that we’re prepared.) I am incompetent, leaving something the Dragons could use against us. [Episode 26] The attention of the Taoist sects is all on the Conference of the Three Sects’ Origins, they won’t pay attention to the East Sea. (The Conference of the Three Sects’ Origins) Sects’ Origins) (was intended to ease the conflict between Chan and Jie,) (but looking at the outcome of the Name List Catastrophe,) (followers from all three sects were embroidered in the bloodbath.) The followers of Chan and Jie are not allowed to fight here. Do you think the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect of Human Taoism is just for show? (She looks familiar.) (Xiong Lingli?) (How did she join the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect?) (With so many people around, I can’t confront her.) (I can only…) Your… Cousin, I finally found you. If you expose my identity, Xiong Village will be in danger. Call me cousin. Uh… Cousin. That was close. Cousin, it’s rare to meet you. Just stick with me. I mean, to cultivate. (Even Senior Changshou’s cousin is so outstanding.) Guang Chengzi, a follower of the Yuanshi Buddha [Guang Chengzi, Chan Taoism] of Chan Taoism, is here to attend. Yun Zhongzi, a follower of the Yuanshi Buddha of Chan Taoism, is here to attend . [Yun Zhongzi, Chan Taoism] Zhao Gongming, a follower of Tongtian Hierarch of Jie Taoism, is here to attend. Duobao, a follower of Tongtian Hierarch of Jie Taoism, is here to attend. Followers of Jie, what’s the purpose of your imposing entrance? [Taoist Duobao, Jie Taoism] We ‘re just here to join in the fun. (Nowadays, the Chan and Jie sects are still engaged in verbal disputes.) (But when the Name List Catastrophe arrives,) (it will become a three-way battle among the sects.) (Many immortals of Chan will lose their three splendors) (and much of their cultivation.) (The Jie Taoism will suffer countless deaths and injuries.) (Even the Three Taoist Sages came, ) (they could not prevent the followers) (from being trapped in the Position of the Right God,) (forever controlled by the Dao of Heaven.) (I must quickly help the Dragons to be accepted) (to align closely with the Heavenly Court) (so I can avoid being involved in the Name List Catastrophe.) Followers of the Chan/Jie Taoism, follow me to greet Senior Xuandu and pay respects to Taiqing Sage of Human Taoism. No need to be so ceremonious. My master and the two martial uncles are incarnations from the primordial spirit of Pangu, and they are all followers of the Taoist Ancestor. The three sects belong to the Taoism. The Supreme Lord accepts those with virtue as followers, following the will of heaven to enlighten sentient beings . Sentient beings refer to all living beings. Anyone who aspires to the Dao should have the opportunity to cultivate and seek longevity. (The Great Mage summoned me here. What’s the matter?) It’s the Miniature Chart of Governance, containing hundreds of treasures. Young followers from the three sects may enter and search inside . (An imitation) (of Mother Nuwa’s Chart of Governance?) (Yun Zhongzi is indeed the master forger in the world.) I’ll add thousands of treasures as a bonus. ( Taoist Duobao.) [*Duobao means full of treasures .] (The Taoist of Jie truly lives up to his name.) (I’d rather not embarrass Duxian.) [Go] (Master has figured out) (that the ascent of the Dragons would benefit all beings,) (and Li Changshou is the key to making this happen.) (The conference is a good chance to test his character and strength.) Your… Cousin, I will protect you. (You can’t keep hiding forever.) (Parade Human Taoism’s Might) (So, the Great Mage seeks attention for Human Taoism.) (But this matter…) (I know an attention-grabber who’s a pro at this.) (The Speed Talisman for speed,) (and the Treasure Hammer as a weapon.) Followers of Human Taoism come to assist! (The poison powder was applied to the Huolin Sword.) (Any fierce beast that touches it will die instantly.) (Junior Youqin, charge without worry.) [Admiring bullet comments] [Admiring bullet comments] Those two followers of Human are awesome. (Twenty li to the northwest, a fierce beast appears.) (Senior Changshou always takes on everything) (but attributes the credit to others.) (Youqin Xuanya,) (do your best to eliminate demons and uphold Human’s reputation.) [Admiring bullet comments] (Never disappoint Senior Changshou.) [Admiring bullet comments] (Xiong Lingli, the nemesis of fierce beasts.) (Youqin Xuanya, the Iceberg Sword cultivator.) With proper offense and defense and seamless coordination, the future of these two young followers of Human Taoism is promising. The Human Taoism has two outstanding talents. (Changshou has been playing it safe.) (No action prevails over exertion, and no contention surpasses conflict.) (Serenity leads to naturalness,) (and all phenomena ultimately return to the realm of wonder.) (Today, I’ve gained many insights from Changshou.) (If he can become my junior) (and handle the affairs of the Human in the Tushita Palace,) (Master will surely be pleased.) [Big Brother] (The Dragons are in trouble. Hurry to save the Second Leader.) The Xifang wants to destroy evidence and kill the Dragons to silence them. The Second Leader? You’re aware of the affairs of the Sea God Sect. (Do you think you can escape the divination of the sages) (with just your Fire Virtue Jade?) (Master has long known about your situation) (and intervened to cover for you.) (Otherwise, you would have been exposed long ago.) Thank you for the protection, Taiqing Sage. Great Mage, allow me to leave one incarnation here, so my real body can follow you. Junior followers, I have urgent matters to attend to. I’ll leave first . Protect His Highness! (The Soul-Capturing Orb has shattered.) (How do I make the King Father believe) (that Xifang Taoism is investigating the Eye of the Four Seas?) (A Golden Immortal?) (But the foundation is unstable.) (Just like Yuanze,) (who forcibly reached the Golden Immortal Realm) (by the Bloody Lotus during the battle with the Duxian.) (It’s the scheme of the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings again.) He’s not a real Golden Immortal, but his strength far surpasses yours. If you can save Ao Yi, I will persuade Master to accept you into the Tushita Palace. How about that? (The Tushita Palace?) (The incarnation of Taiqing Sage.) (The residence of Taiqing Sage.) Taiqing Sage.) Taishang Laojun.) (I must seize this opportunity.) I’m willing to go. This is Master’s defensive treasure: the Universal Marvelous Tower. I’ll lend its power to you for an hour. With its protection, even a Great Golden Immortal without a celestial treasure won’t be able to harm you. Like a test version of a shielding hacker. Water Escape. The Junior Mage of Xuandu is here. No one can lay a finger on His Highness Ao Yi. (From the words of the Great Mage,) (it’s clear that the shielding hacker is not absolutely safe.) (If a Great Golden Immortal,) (like the Taoist Mosquito behind the scenes,) (suddenly attacks with a celestial treasure,) (it would easily break my defense.) The Junior Mage of Xuandu? What relation does he have with the Great Mage of Xuandu? Or is it just a pretense? A nobody from the Celestial Realm dares to ride on the reputation of the Great Mage of Xuandu? Meet your end! Unify Three Impurities in One Breath. This is the Taoist skill of papermen. (Changshou intentionally calls out wrongly) (to intimidate the opponent and seize the initiative,) (but the papermen are indeed lifelike.) ( Is that a technique of Human Taoism?) The first move: the Chain Lock Array. (The Character Gui papermen are skilled in various techniques and formations) (and are of the highest combat power in the army of papermen.) The second move: the Soul-Eradicating Array. The third move: the Thunderous Poison Array. (Only that one is using a superior treasure,) (it must be his real body.) A Taoist skill. Character into a spell. Quick! It’s a trap! The papermen deploys more papermen. There’s no end to it. (He comes up with so many variations from papermen.) ()If he were to cast beans into soldiers from the 36 Heavenly Strategies, (wouldn’t he be able to create more novelties?) It seems this Junior Mage of Xuandu was the one causing trouble for me in Duxian. How dare a mere demon be aggressive in front of me? Protectors, proceed with the lingering souls. It’s truly difficult to kill a Golden Immortal. ( With the fake Golden Immortal eliminated and Ao Yi rescued,) (I finally completed the task assigned by the Great Mage.) Watch out! [Episode 27] Watch out! The Universal Marvelous Tower! He really is the Junior Mage of Xuandu. When did Taiqing Sage accept another follower? She just left? Good thing I have this hack from the Great Mage. Your Highness! Your Highness! I have come too late to your aid. So you are a master from the Human Taoism. I shall definitely inform Father and express my gratitude. I still need to report to His Majesty. Prince Ao Yi. Goodbye. His Majesty? Part from the Dragons, who else can this title refer to…? His Majesty the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court ! Not directly pointing out that the reinforcements were sent by Martial Uncle the Jade Emperor, but letting Ao Yi deduce it himself lowers the Dragons’ vigilance while increasing the favorability of the Heavenly Court. This was very well done. You must be the one tasked with the Dragons’ ascension. I am gifting you a power. This is Casting Beans to Create Soldiers of the 36 Heavenly Strategies. In addition, if you run into trouble in the future, you can show this token. [Junior Mage of Xuandu] One life-saving trump card, check. I, Junior Mage of Xuandu, has officially been certified. Yes, sir. But do not worry too much, Xifang Taoism will not dare to attack the Sects of Taoism just yet. I have already informed the Master and Martial Uncle Sages of Chan and Jie Taoism of the fact that they keep Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings to harm Taoist followers. [Great Mage of Xuandu reported to the Three Taoist Sages] [that the Twin Sages of Xifang keep Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings] A large number of Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings suddenly appeared. Xifang Taoism released them at this time, could it be…? Evil creatures. Martial Uncle Zhunti killed the Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings himself. This cuts their ties with Xifang Taoism and offers an explanation to Taoism. What a scheme. [Xifang Taoism, Zhunti] Now that the miracle is evident, [Xifang Taoism, Zhunti] followers of the Three Sects should all know that the mosquitoes have been killed. It’s impossible for Taoist Mosquito to remain indifferent. You failed to sow discord between Taoism sects, were unable to obtain merit, and exposed our inside man among the Dragons. The assassination of Ao Yi has also failed. I already showed you mercy by killing 30% of your mosquitoes and drawing clear boundaries in front of others. I will send someone else to take over. You must not act rashly. As you say, Sage. I followed your orders, but ended up facing the danger of clan annihilation. It is better to fight to the death, save the mosquitoes, and leave the primordial world. Just killing some mosquitoes and leaving it at that? Xifang Taoism must pay. Senior Duobao. The conference is almost over. I am taking my leave now. I’m finally back. Cousin and Junior Youqin, thank you for guarding me. Let’s go. Why do I already have orders after just parting ways with the Great Mage? No. It’s his master Taiqing Sage. Why do both the master and follower like to send messages so suddenly? But Great Mage can only send text messages, [All hail Human Taoism] Taiqing Sage can already send videos via 5G. The difference in their cultivation levels is clear at a glance. The founding treasure of Xifang Taoism. The Level 12 Merit Golden Lotus condensed from the merits of Heaven and Earth after the creation of the world. Isn’t this from during the Name List Catastrophe when Taoist Mosquito gaws on the Golden Lotus? Taiqing Sage can even deduce this? As expected from the boss with the top combat power in the primordial world. But, why send the footage to me? According to the computer-analyzed plot of the Name List Catastrophe, Taoist Mosquito eating the Golden Lotus is the cause, the survival of Taoism is the effect. Could it be that by foiling Taoist Mosquito’s plans many times, I have changed her fate and affected the future? Duxian. Taiqing Sage must have predicted this variable, which is why he made me intervene. [South Sea, 9000 Li] [Big Brother] To ensure that she can eat the Golden Lotus during the Name List Catastrophe… Please wait. …I had better get her to work for me. South Sea Sea God. I was unable to kill you at the Sea God Temple that day, but you came to me yourself. How does it feel to be cut off in public by Xifang Taoism? What? You came to add insult to injury? I would not dare. You just need to understand that we have a common enemy. Why don’t we join forces? A mere South Sea wild god dares to discuss joining forces with me? I have defeated you three times. I only plotted against your Sea God Sect once, where did the three times come from? Nonsense. We met just a few hours ago. Have you forgotten? You are the Junior Mage of Xuandu? During the previous battle of Duxian, the Azure-Winged Roc also died by my hands. South Sea Sea God. Junior Mage of Xuandu. Backed by the Sages of Human Taoism . So I have been defeated by you since the very beginning. Now can we talk? Okay. I will talk to him. If there is any problem, I will just kill him. Taoist Mosquito’s cultivation level is far above mine. I’m afraid I’ll be in huge trouble if I’m not careful. Why did he bring me to Human territory? He is not afraid that I will kill. Unless this is a trap. It is crowded here, which can lower her guard and help me get more information out of her. Next, I just need… Taking action already? There were zero signs. [Art of Stability] Are you not tired? Did he realize? Then why didn’t he duck? Oh my God. What is the use of me saying this? She’s going to break me into tiny pieces anyway. Looking at his calm expression, could he have something else up his sleeve? Wait. This is working. All living beings have exquisite hearts, thus hearts hearts , there are hundreds and thousands of faces. Please look around. Common people run around for survival, worry about food and clothing, and are forced to put on hypocritical faces. Are we not just like them? The primordial world is like chess, sages hold the pieces. You and I are both pawns. Are you and your mosquitoes not under the West’s thumb for this reason? Do not give me this nonsense! You dared to foil my plans, making me lose face in front of the sect leader . I am going to pluck out your sinews and peel off your skin, drain your bones and blood so that you will never be reincarnated. I will eat your companions and followers, make them regret knowing a god like you until their last moments. I want you to disappear into ashes and your soul to scatter. I want your Sea God Sect to vanish. What if I can use my own means to bring down Xifang Taoism to avenge you Mosquitoes? Then you will become my best friend. In that case, let me see your bargaining chips. [Heavenly Court] Everything has Yin and Yang. If this place is going to rise, aside from dignity on the surface, sharpness in the shadows is also needed. If you can return to Xifang Taoism and work with me from the inside, I can help you escape your suffering. Xifang Taoism thinks that they do everything perfectly, but Taiqing Sage, who is behind South Sea Sea God , has already noticed and is turning things around against Xifang Taoism. Human Taoism is truly frightening. South Sea Sea God is truly frightening. I didn’t say anything. You thought of that yourself. I can agree with what you said. Finally managed to use the Heavenly Court to stabilize Taoist Mosquito. But if she, the poisonous blade, is not put to proper use, I will be hurt instead. But there is one condition. What condition? Jie Taoism’s Zhao Gongming and his second younger sister have been causing trouble for Xifang Taoism recently. I have been suffering as well. If you can stop them, I will trust you. Mr. Zhao didn’t go around feigning trouble again, did he? Second younger sister? Qiongxiao. The second of the three Xiaos. These three are the ruthless trio who cut off the three splendors of Chan Taoism’s 12 Golden Immortals during the Name List Catastrophe. It seems that I have to pay Three Immortals Island a visit. If Mr. Zhao and Qiongxiao continue to cause trouble, not only will it affect my cooperation with Wenjing, it will also intensify the conflict between Xifang Taoism and Taoism. I cannot get Tongtian Hierarch to come. Taoist Duobao is not strong enough of a deterrent force. Then there is only… The eldest sister of the Three Xiaos, Zhao Gongming’s adopted younger sister, Immortal Yunxiao. [Three Immortals Island] Using clouds and mist as the base [Three Immortals Island] of the formation, [Three Immortals Island] it appears soft, [Three Immortals Island] Island] Island] [Three Immortals Island] but is, in fact, full of murderous intent. As expected from the Three Xiaos, the greats who laid out the Winding Yellow River Array to forcefully go against the Sages. This formation, even when I look in with my spiritual sense, I can only see a vast expanse of white. The entrance is nowhere to be found. I, Sea God, self-titled Hesperus, seek a meeting with Immortal Yunxiao. I, Sea God, self-titled Hesperus seek a meeting with Immortal Yunxiao. No one is answering. Guess I have to make noise to disturb the neighbors. Papermen, Team Blow, Bow, Pluck, and Sing. Go! Gongming. Immortal Qiongxiao. How you have suffered! Bah! How unlucky ! [Jie Taoism, Bixiao] My eldest brother and second older sister [Jie Taoism, Bixiao] are doing great. [Jie Taoism, Bixiao] There is no need for you to mourn them! [Jie Taoism, Bixiao] Immortal Bixiao . I have written everything down in the greeting card. Please pass it on to Immortal Yunxiao. Bixiao, Immortal Qiongxiao’s younger twin sister, the youngest of the Three Xiaos. It is said that she is an eccentric prankster. I must be careful. Just you wait . If you dare to trick my eldest sister, I will definitely teach you a lesson. She is showing me the way? This is Three Immortals Island. My spiritual sense still cannot look through to the outside, seems to be blocked by some kind of formation. [Episode 28] Did that scare you? The Sea God shouldn’t be this weak. I even arranged a plot of stumbling upon success by mistake. What a shame! Cursed Sea God! You used a paperman to trick me ! I’ll find you and end you. Immortal Bixiao, it’s an urgent matter. Taoist Gongming and Immortal Qiongxiao are taking revenge on Xifang Taoism. You have to stop them. Otherwise, the Twin Sages of Xifang might retaliate. That serious sounds. I ‘ll go to Yunxiao. As it turned out, she used her cloud doll to get so dramatic with my paperman. Everyone is a drama queen here. I should be able to meet Yunxiao this time. Greetings, Immortal Yunxiao. I am Sea God Hesperus. A beauty in the north, peerless and self-reliant. [Jie Taoism, Yunxiao] [Jie Taoism, Yunxiao] The oldest of the Three Xiaos, the greatest immortal of Jie Taoism, Yunxiao. I read the letter. I appreciate you for coming here to inform me. My heart fluttered. What is going on? Is this some form of mind control? No, I don’t sense fluctuations of spirit energy. This is not a spell. It’s… My karma is shifting ! Dodge it. I must dodge this karma. Taoist Hesperus, how carefree of you. You lie down during our conversation. I apologize for my behavior. Please forgive me. Never mind. Taoist Hesperus, please lead the way. I shall go to Gongming and Qiongxiao. Yunxiao cherishes her loved ones. But she is burdened by her siblings. She can’t elude the Name List Catastrophe. To approach Taoist Gongming, I need her help. Taoist Xifang, why did you attack me? I didn’ t touch you. Gongming! [Jie Taoism, Qiongxiao] [Jie Taoism, Qiongxiao] Gongming! Gongming! Your injury looks horrible! Xifang Taoism, you’ve crossed the line! The Twin Sages of Xifang must answer for this. You shall pay with your life. Face me! Qiongxiao, the second sister of the Three Xiaos. She is known as “the Hot-headed Thug”. She can easily turn a scam into an all-out battle. Yunxiao! Yunxiao? Kneel. You make enemies everywhere and sow the seeds of hatred. Go back and reflect on your mistake on the Three Immortals Island. Swift and subtle. As expected from Yunxiao. The troublemakers are dealt with. It’s the first step to forming a partnership with Taoist Mosquito. He managed to get Zhao Gongming and Qiongxiao jailed on the island. I must applaud the Sea God’s stratagem. The Twin Sages of Xifang sent him! One of the Great Followers. Who should I put my bet on? Him or the Sea God? Great! Great! I was fortunate to have your help. Allow me to express my gratitude with this swordplay diagram. Incredible work with the ink! It shows a glimpse of endless Taoist wisdom. Reaching the highest realm, ascending to the Nine Heavens. Tongtian Hierarch, the Sage of Jie Taoism. Is the swordplay in this diagram born from Tongtian Hierarch’s ultimate weapon, the Qinping Sword. Astonishing enlightenment. With one glance, he can understand the Taoist wisdom within. The Taoist wisdom is pouring in. My might is through the roof. This paperman is getting overloaded! Cousin! What’s wrong? Oh no. I’ve reached the peak of the Celestial Realm. At this rate, it will bring about another Golden Immortal Calamity! Martial Brother Changshou is a paperman? Not even I could tell he was a familiar. Not to mention, the deep Taoist wisdom. There’s more to him than meets the eye. Earth-shattering might and the arrival of dark clouds. Taoist Hesperus is breaking through to the next realm. I’m not ready for my tribulation! [Big Brother] I can’t go through it just yet. The Golden Immortal Calamity is worse than the catastrophe of immortality. The celestial lightning will strike my Taoist heart. With the slightest mistake, it could get shattered, and my immortal path would be cut off. Only a handful have survived the Golden Immortal Calamity. This is as good as a death sentence. It’s not easy to form the Tao Flower. Why hurt yourself? I had the chance to witness the Taoist wisdom of a sage, but I couldn’t fully understand it. I shall cut down my Tao flower and restart to complete the journey. I see. It was wrong of me to assume. The celestial lightning! You must leave now! Do not be afraid. I’ll assist you. There are many strayed paths. I cut off my path to heaven. Vessel of Chaos. Open! This is the top-tier instrument that can hold even heaven and earth. In the Name List Catastrophe, it captured Lu Ya and imprisoned Yang Jian. It captured the 12 Golden Immortals of Chan Taoism, which forced the Sage to act! Immortal Yunxiao, you have my thanks. A cleave to reveal the truth. Slash one, the flawed Tao foundation. Slash two, the stagnation. Slash three, the uncertainties! Oh no, I owe her a huge favor. The deed has been done. I’ve regained my strength. Next, [Celestial Realm, Middle Stage] I should check on [Celestial Realm, Middle Stage] the compromised papermen at Duxian. Sect Master. I had a realization. I didn’t want to startle you, so I placed papermen here while I trained in the clouds. What have you realized? Your familiar is emitting Taoist wisdom of great depths. [Junior Mage of Xuandu] An unexpected origin for Changshou. Don’t worry, your secret is safe with me. To get away from the Great Mage of Xuandu, simply answer the Taoist wisdom is his. It was easy to brush off the Sect Master. But Youdu seems to have discovered something huge. Why the sudden message? Martial Brother Changshou, when Duxian was attacked, two heroes came to the rescue. Their reaction when they quaked with their souls was similar to that of a paperman’s. Were those your papermen? I am so exhausted. Time to get some rest. Yes. I thought training hard could help me catch up to you. But the truth is, I never truly knew our differences. You will continue to be my beacon. This is so embarrassing! I should prepare more countermeasures so my papermen wouldn’t get exposed. The Eye of the Sea will decide our fate! We can’t allow the Xifang Taoism to have it! Your Majesty. I will deploy our army to guard the Eye of the Sea. No. The Xifang Taoism’s spies have infiltrated the palace. If there are spies in the army, the location will be exposed. Send out my words. We will convene the Council of the Four Seas. True Dragons of the Four Seas must assemble to cast the Thousand-Dragon Array. An astute judgment. The array is a powerful spell created by the Proto-Dragon. It can move seas and hold the sky. Once completed, the Xifang Taoism will never get their hands on the Eye. Yi, bring that Sea God of South Sea. Since he calls himself a Sea God, he will contribute to the Four Seas’ endeavor. Tongtian Hierarch’s diagram is hung in the temple. The Sage’s power protects me. My title as the Sea God ensures my safety. The Taoist wisdom of Tongtian Hierarch The Sea God is backed by the Sage of the Human Taoism and the Sage of the Jie Taoism. Are Taiqing Sage and Tongtian Hierarch using the Sea God to plot against the Twin Sages of Xifang? This conspiracy is linked to so many. [Selected by the Sage] However, I can make use of it. Sea God of South Sea, will you make me mine? Or is it the other way around? We’ll wait and see. Taoist Mosquito. Already getting used to being a spy? The Twin Sages of Xifang sent a Great Follower to mediate the dispute in the Four Seas. A Great Follower? Who is it? We were both Ancient Evils. But somehow, he was favored by the Twin Sages. They took him in and gave him a name. He was nurtured with virtue. The name is Jingchan. Jingchan? Isn’t that the past life of Tang Monk from Great Tang? What does he want? To alienate the Four Seas. Second Prince of East Sea! Chancellor! Quick! Inform His Majesty! Second Prince of East Sea intruded and killed the Chancellor of North Sea! [Episode 29] Your Majesty. Three thousand strong soldiers of the North Sea have been deployed outside the East Sea Dragon Palace, ordering Second Prince to be handed over as compensation for the North Sea Chancellor’s life. Otherwise, they will raze the East Sea Dragon Palace to the ground. The relationship between the Dragons of the Four Seas has always been harmonious. Your Majesty, as you are the eldest, Dragons of the Four Seas respect you the most. The real culprit behind the assassination of the Chancellor of the North Sea has not been confirmed, yet the North Sea had already sent out troops… Your Majesty, this is illogical. That is not the only illogical part. Yi was discussing preparations for the Four Seas Alliance Conference with me yesterday, it is impossible for him to go to the North Sea for assassination. We have been searching for several days, but we still have not found him. The North Sea has also stepped up their search. We must find Yi before them. Yes, sir. We must find Ao Yi and ask the East Sea for an explanation. Changshou, I did not kill the Chancellor of the North Sea. Someone wants to ruin my reputation. Xifang Taoism has formulated a poisonous plan to sow discord among the Four Seas Dragon Palaces. They must be behind this. Once you are confirmed to be the culprit, the North Sea and the East Sea will turn against each other. Not only will the Four Seas Alliance Conference fail to be held, but the Four Seas will fall apart as well. Xifang Taoism? Yes. The Four Seas are unstable and the Thousand-Dragon Array has not been completed. They can take the opportunity to seize the Eye of the Four Seas . Once the Four Seas are split, the Dragons’ ascension will also fail, I won’t be able to go to Heavenly Court and the Name List Catastrophe… We must catch the real culprit to clear your name. Changshou, you know me well. After the incident, I secretly tracked down the trash who pretended to be me. He was last seen at Tianya Pavilion. I originally wanted to go inside and take him down directly, but… [Male guests not allowed] Tianya Pavilion is the most popular women’s dance studio within a hundred li. It was founded by the Bian family, a wealthy family in the primordial world. The only man who is able to enter and exit the place is the young master of Tianya Pavilion, Bian Zhuang. The power behind Tianya Pavilion is not to be underestimated. We cannot enter rashly. But how did the trash get in? It uses transformation techniques. No way, Changshou. Are you going to…? Under these circumstances, this may be the only way. I will never… So pretty. Yes, so pretty. Remember, starting now, my name is Jiang Si’er and your name is Ke Le’er. We have heard about Tianya Pavilion for a long time and would like to go in to observe. Ginger coke, cold-dispelling, stomach-warming, delicious, and inexpensive. Got it. Changshou. Jiang Si’er. So this is not a dance studio, but a martial arts gym. Tianya Pavilion aims to gather female Qi cultivators in the primordial world to practice, compete, make progress, and enhance perception and understanding of the great truths together. Is it true that Tianya Pavilion really only accepts female guests? Really. What if a male guest gets in? [Tianya Pavilion, Bian Zhuang] What is the fuss about? It’s time to use wind transmission to get the information around. Why is there a man? Why is there a man? Didn ‘t he die? Your panic is different from everyone else’s. Did you think that someone who died by your sword has reappeared? You are the culprit. Don’t come any closer! If you do, I will kill him! Young Master! Miss, calm down. An Eight-Limbed Giant Octopus. No wonder you can appear as someone else during the assassination. Follow Ke Le’er and me back to the Heavenly Court to await trial. Very good. I’ve won this wave of public opinion and left a good impression for the Heavenly Court. Thank you for saving me. Well, I am Bian Zhuang, the young master of Tianya Pavilion. May I ask about your name, Miss Ke Le’er? I mean, age. I mean to say, do you have a Taoist partner? Go away. Such a unique woman. Just one glance makes people infatuated. Ke Le’er. Le’er. Le. He’s gone crazy. What Chancellor of the North Sea? I have no idea. This is called the Soul-Capturing Orb. It can collect all memories in the primordial spirit. Even if you commit suicide out of fear, the Soul-Capturing Orb can still read your memories before death. I’ll talk. Good thing I prepared a few extra Soul-Capturing Orbs, they sure came in handy. Who instigated you? Was Xifang Taoism’s Jingchan involved? No one ordered me. Jingchan just helped us. After the Great War of Witches and Demons, we, the descendants of Demon Court, had no place to go and had to hide in the deep sea, but the Dragons have long been bullying us. So I pretended to be Ao Yi and assassinated the Chancellor of the North Sea. You Deep Sea Demons were the ones who provoked us first. Xifang Taoism urged the Deep Sea Demons to take action but kept their own hands clean. Fortunately, you and I entered Tianya Pavilion in disguise. They haven’t found you yet. Quickly, take her back to the Dragon Palace. Although we cannot pin the blame on Xifang Taoism, we can help you clear your name. Changshou, things got so heated between the North and East Seas this time, could the North and East Seas have been infiltrated by Xifang Taoism as well? Very likely. I will report to Father right away. [Big Brother] The Four Seas Alliance Conference will be held in three days as planned. Yi, you did well. Thank you, Father. Father. The assassination of the Chancellor of the North Sea was instigated by Xifang Taoism. I have made a list of possible traits. I hope you will investigate carefully to prevent anything from going awry at the Four Seas Alliance Conference. Father. Just prepare for the Four Seas Alliance Conference as usual. Remember to Invite more guests. Sea God, your fellow Jie Taoism followers can all be invited. This is what matters. Jingchan suddenly summoned so many Golden Immortals, could there be another big move? The plan to sow discord among the Four Seas this time has failed. Even the Heavenly Court got involved. Did some of you leak the information? You know in your hearts. Oh no, Jingchan is starting to get suspicious. Of course, the Four Seas Alliance Conference will be held soon, I will not fuss about it. As long as you prove yourselves, you will definitely be rewarded. -Yes. -Yes. Mr. Jingchan. All the agents planted in the Four Seas are in position. Everyone is just awaiting your orders. Good. For this operation, we will divide into twelve groups, each group of demon army will be commanded by each of you. [South Group: 10,000 Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings] [10,000 puppets, 30,000 Dragon Palace planted agents, 50,000 Deep Sea Demons] In my group alone, there are 100,000 troops. The Four Seas Alliance Conference will be held as planned. His Majesty the Dragon King is unwilling to investigate traitors. As expected, ancient masters like the East Sea Dragon King are thick-skinned and black-hearted. His Majesty wants Xifang Taoism to let down their guard and is waiting for an opportunity to catch all the traitors at once. You mean the Four Seas Alliance Conference? Exactly. Xifang Taoism wants to ruin the alliance conference, His Majesty is using their own plan against them, luring out all Xifang Taoism traitors hidden within the Four Seas and taking the opportunity to find out the actual purpose behind Xifang Taoism’s scheme to seize the Eye. There will definitely be a war at the Four Seas Alliance Conference. All the guests I have invited will be the key to protecting the Eye. Ao Yi. Among the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Taoism, there is an ancient master from the Dragon clan, Huanglong Immortal. The Dragons cut off ties with him due to old matters, but when the Dragons are in critical danger, he will definitely lend a hand. [Chan Taoism, Huanglong Immortal] The Dragon clan is my root. Fallen leaves return to their roots. How can I tolerate such schemes of Xifang Taoism? Taoist Gongming, a Great Follower of Jie Taoism’s Sage, is known for his righteousness. We can also ask him to come forward. Do not worry, Martial Nephew, I will come as promised. In addition, I have written a memorial to the Heavenly Court reporting Xifang Taoism’s plan to seize the Eye and asking the Heavenly Court to uphold justice for the Dragons. Hesperus is indeed something. He has already placed a hidden pawn inside Xifang Taoism. Mugong. Select elite heavenly soldiers and generals and send them to the Four Seas. Thank you, Changshou. You are the Second Leader of the Sea God Sect. I ought to help. Second Leader? Then I won’t call you Changshou anymore, I’ll call you Brother Sect Leader. What a unique title. These three days, Jingchan has been preparing to attack the Four Seas Alliance Conference, I have not had a chance to send a message to Sea God. About this attack on the Four Seas Alliance Conference, only the assigned Golden Immortal knows the route and target of their army. If there is a leaker, the Twin Sages will definitely kill them personally. Darn it. If I want to hide my identity as an undercover agent, I must not reveal the plan to Sea God this time. But such a setup plus Jingchan, a named Great Follower, acting in secret, will Sea God be able to cope? To deal with Xifang Taoism, relying on connections alone is not enough. I must develop a magic weapon capable of storing the power of Casting Beans to Create Soldiers. The original Casting Beans to Create Soldiers looks kind of dumb. Let me modify it. Perhaps because of the Great Mage of Xuandu, Sect Master transferred Xiong Lingli from Xiaoyao Immortal Sect to Duxian, accepted her as a named follower, and arranged for her to live in Xiaoqiong Peak. This makes it easier for me to modify Casting Beans to Create Soldiers. Elder Wan also contributed a lot. Success! Self-developed magic weapon, Senzu Bean Gatling. I’ll work alongside the heavenly army. The Four Seas Alliance Conference will be held today. How come I still haven’t heard anything from Taoist Mosquito? [Episode 30] Welcome to Four Seas Alliance Conference, South Sea Sea God. East Sea Dragon Palace has already imposed a curfew. I wonder how many traitors are among the Jiao soldiers. [North Sea Dragon King] [North Sea Dragon King] There could be [North Sea Dragon King] [South Sea Dragon King] Xifang Taoism’s informants [South Sea Dragon King] among the four old Dragon Kings as well. I still haven’t heard anything from Taoist Mosquito in recent days. She couldn’t have changed sides after just having been turned, could she? For millions of years, To guard the Four Seas, we, the Dragons, have continued to fill the Eye with Proto-Dragon’s direct descendants, so the sins from heaven and earth can be eliminated. However, Deep Sea Demons have been coveting the Eye and even sown discord among Dragons of the Four Seas. Fortunately, you saw through everything and saved the North and the East Seas from starting a fratricidal war. We, the East Sea, are now holding the Four Seas Alliance Conference and discussing the reactivation of the Thousand-Dragon Array together to ask the Dragons to resist the enemy and protect the Eye as one. [West Sea Dragon King] You’re a man of virtue. [West Sea Dragon King] We, the West Sea, will follow you. We, the South Sea, will also support you. Together, we will protect the Eye. Brother Sect Leader. The helpers you and I invited are all in position. Jingchan may launch an attack at any time. Proceed as planned. The Sea Spirit Catastrophe is coming, I wonder if Changshou can handle it properly and use it to propel the Dragons’ ascension. [Xifang Taoism, Jingchan] Go Now! Report! Deep Sea Demons are attacking the West Sea! Report ! The South Sea is being attacked by Deep Sea Demons! Report! The North Sea is surrounded by Deep Sea Demons! How dare they! How dare they unexpectedly attack us while we are away from our palaces. Sir. We will put down riots right now. Have someone go and gather the troops to follow the three Dragon Kings to suppress the evil demons! There is turmoil in all Three Seas. Why hasn’t Jingchan shown up yet? Unless the attacks on the Three Seas are feints. Then Jingchan’s The real target is [Eye of the East Sea] [Eye of the East Sea] the East Sea. [Eye of the East Sea] Ao Yi. You must protect the Eye. The Dragons are tyrannical making the Four Seas suffer for a long time! Today, we will kill the Dragon Kings and seize the Dragon Palaces to rectify the ways of the Four Seas! Mr. Jingchan. I’ve got information about the Eye. I’ll lead the way. Your Highness the Second Prince. Only the True Dragons knows where the Eye is. Besides, you’ve asked Huanglong Immortal for help. [*yellow dragon] It should be fine. May the Eye be safe and sound. How did the Eight-Limbed Giant Octopus escape? It was Jingchan who saved her. Face the enemy! As long as I, Second Prince of the East Sea, am here, no one will lay a finger on the Eye! The Dragons are really in decline. So weak. Ao Yi didn’t respond to my voice transmission. There must be something wrong with him! To atone for their sins in ancient times, Dragons have been continuously filling the Eye of the Four Seas with direct descendants of the Proto-Dragon, so much so, their bloodline has withered. I am activating the Eye to seek liberation for the Dragons. You should be grateful. The sins from heaven and earth are sealed within the Eye. Once activated, karma will pour out, all living beings will surely be plunged into misery and suffering. Dragons will have to fill the Eye with our lives until there are no Dragons anymore. I will never allow you to succeed! I have scattered Dragon Palace troops to the Four Seas. Your father, the East Sea Dragon King, has also been besieged in the Dragon Palace by the Deep Sea Demons I had sent with no reinforcements. A young dragon like you, who hasn’t ‘t even become a Golden Immortal, dares to think that you can keep the Eye safe? Jingchan, how dare you! – Who’s that? – Jingchan, how dare you! Jingchan, how dare you! I am the South Sea Sea God. You dare to covet the Eye? I am here to act on behalf of heaven and carry out justice. You’re just a bastard from South Sea who hasn’t been apotheosized yet, and now you even dare to mind East Sea business? [ Big Brother] Taoist Mosquito said Jingchan’s cultivation level has already reached Daluo Immortal. People who reach Daluo Immorta are committed to perfections in their Tao, which means they’re more powerful than people who reach Golden Immortal. I’m afraid I won’t be able to take this blow. South Sea Sea God is nothing more than this. Fellow Taoist, it’s too early to be complacent. Why are you still alive? Because I got enough papermen with me. We aren’t likely to win, If we have a hard fight with him. Five elements rotate and unite into one. Water flows forever and ever. Water Escape! Want to escape? What a powerful sonic attack. It can even slow things down. Master, please stop chanting. The Eye is activated. Merit Spirit Pearl! Merit Spirit Pearl ? Jingchan’s true purpose is to absorb the merits of the Dragons filling the Eye? It shouldn’t be like this. What’s going on with the Eye? Sea God said that someone is coming to attack the Eye. I haven’t seen anyone. The Eye is fake? The Eye is guarded by True Dragons. Bones and dragon souls are everywhere. I indeed heard that the Eye is right here. You didn’t even know you’ve fallen into a trap. Idiot. Everything is same here as the real Eye is. Only the Eye itself is fake. They deliberately relaxed dungeons’ guard allowing me to rescue the Eight-Limbed Giant Octopus just to lead me to this fake Eye by her words . South Sea Sea God, I underestimated you. Even Jingchan is besieged, he’s not scared at all. He must have other help. Sea God asked me to ambush on the only road to the East Sea from Xifang Taoism. I wonder who will come . That’s Xifang Taoism Enforcement Elder, Taoist Bailian. [*white lotus] His cultivation level has reached Daluo Immortal. His smiling face is just an illusion. Actually, he is extremely cruel. He also has an innate weapon, lotus, which is quite sharp. He’s quite formidable. Evil demon, where are you going? The Twin Sages of Xifang ordered us to go to the Dragon Palace for help. Don’t stand in the way. I am here to hunt down demons. Why did you injure me? You damaged my foundation of Tao. I ‘m going to ask my master, Tongtian Hierarch, to reason things out! [Xifang Taoism Taoist Bailian] Darned Rebels! Today, the East Sea Dragon Palace, will clean house to eliminate all future troubles! By the order of the East Sea Dragon Palace King, we will wipe out traits within the Dragon Palace, and exterminate Deep Sea Demons! They’ve set up an ambush in advance to capture all traitors and Deep Sea Demons. Looks like these Dragons are not that stupid. Wenjing. Elder Bailian is on his way to the East Sea. Attack now so that he can rescue the Dragons. Elder Bailian is also coming? Seems like Jingchan hid a lot of his plans from me. But Jingchan still needs me to take action, this means things didn’t go well at the Eye. Sea Gold is able to make Jingchan suffer a setback, he does have something. Deep Sea demons still have a backup plan? No. They’re Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings. How could they be here? Could it be that Deep Sea Demons colluded with Xifang Taoism? South Sea Sea God. You think you have won? Jingchan. That’s what I’m going to say to you. You think everything is absolutely safe by asking masters for help? Mugong. Please ask the Heavenly Court to help the Dragons. Orders for General Jinwuhuntian Hua Aotian: [*gold tungsten celestial sphere] The Four Seas are in trouble. His Majesty the Jade Emperor has ordered you to exterminate the evil demons. Orders for Heavenly soldiers and generals: Eliminate the demons and protect all living creatures of the Four Seas. Kill all evil demons without mercy! [Episode 31] I am here to hunt down demons. Why did you injure me? Zhao Gongming! We haven’t done anything to you. Do not stop us from going to the East Sea. They want to use a sneak attack first, and then carry out rescue? Such dirty tactics! Don’t even think about it. I won’t just let you go, Xifang Taoism. You used hidden powers to sneakily attack me? Fortunately it was recorded by the Voice-Image Sphere. Nonsense! I didn’t use any force! Come on. Hit me. I’ll record it at all times. Fellow Taoist, you are seriously injured and unable to move. Let us send you on your way. Oh no. They’re planning to kill me to keep my mouth shut. Goodbye. I’m leaving. Zhao Gongming. How dare you ruin our plan? No need to chase after him. Our opponent is the one who set everything up. Deep Sea Demons and Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings have joined forces. If this goes on, we will definitely lose the Dragon Palace. Orders for Hua Aotian, General Jinwuhuntian. [* gold tungsten celestial sphere] Why is he here? [Hua Aotian, Heavenly Court] His Majesty the Jade Emperor has ordered you to exterminate the evil demons. I won’t tell Changshou about this. Let’s see if he can recognize him. First, they set up a fake Eye to extract our true purpose, and then they set up an ambush to stop Elder Bailian. Finally, they had the Heavenly Court show up to gain the goodwill of the Dragons. Sea God. Do you think you can turn the tables with 40,000 heavenly soldiers? How about an additional 120,000? Freezing Bow Bean Soldiers. Shoot! God Shield Bean Soldiers. Cover and attack! They’ve got several times as many troops as they had out of thin air. How did the Heavenly Court get such power? Thirty-six Heavenly Strategies: Casting Beans to Create Soldiers. Changshou has offered this method to the Heavenly Court, which can indeed reduce heavenly soldier casualties. Senzu Bean Gatling. Fire! Being able to let the bean soldiers exert such power, Changshou does have many mischievous plans. Charge! Jingchan. You lose. South Sea Sea God. We will meet again. Retreat. No need to pursue them. Chaos has subsided. I am holding a banquet to celebrate. Could everyone from the Heavenly Court stay? Being able to force Jingchan to withdraw his troops, Sea God’s got a knack for it. I have a message for you. Why didn’t you send a message in advance about this battle? Jingchan got really paranoid. And I just got out of it. He’s coming after you. I got it. Xifang Taoism has realized my influence on the Dragons. Although the battle of the East Sea made the Heavenly Court leave a good impression on the Dragons, it is not enough to bow to them. The most urgent matter for the Dragons right now is to use merits to cleanse their own karma, so they won’t be punished by the Tao of Heaven to fill the Eyes. If I ask the Jade Emperor to use merits as the incentive… The Dragons have made great contributions by all living beings in the Four Seas. I think the Heavenly Court will send down a lot of Tao of Heaven merits. This Hua Aotian is something. Not only does he have the strength to conquer the East Sea , he also has insight into the Dragons’ plight. I had never heard of such a person before. Who is he? As soon as Hua Aotian talked about the merits , the merits just came. The Jade Emperor’s distribution of merits isn’t even known in advance to Dong Mugong, an important minister. How did he know about it? Could it be…? Hua Aotian is the Jade Emperor? The Tao of Heaven has sent down merits to bless the Dragons! It’s strange. There were six merits coming down, but where did the sixth merit go? [Li Changshou’s personal account (intercepted)] [Merit Income: 12500] [Karma Withholding: -250 Merit Subtotal: 12250] Today, for the Dragons and South Sea Sea God Hesperus’s contributions in restoring peace in the Four Seas and protecting all living beings, an exception has been made. God positions will be granted in three days. All of you should fulfill your duties and follow orders by the Emperor. As soon as I get the god position, I will have the chance to escape from the Name List Catastrophe caused by the Selection of the Right Gods. Then I can take the first step in my ascension to Heavenly Court plan. Hesperus? Brother Sect Leader’s real Taoist title is indeed enigmatic. [Big Brother] They used Senzu Bean to kill evil demons, and executed an ingenious plan to calm the Four Seas. It is very fortunate that His Majesty the Jade Emperor has received your assistance, Sea God. It’s all because this is the Heavenly Court’s fortune. I dare not take credit. His Majesty wants to pretend, then so do I. It is due to the Heavenly Court’s assistance that we were able to eliminate the rebels. The Eyes of the Four Seas have been sealed by the Ten-Thousand -Dragons Array. All is well for now. We, the Dragons, are extremely grateful. Hesperus. East Sea Dragon King seems to recognize me. Help me. Your Majesty? What does the Jade Emperor fancy? I will prepare a generous gift tomorrow. This incarnation of mine has been an official in the Heavenly Court for tens of thousands of years. If exposed in public, the Jade Emperor’s imperial dignity will be damaged. So Hua Aotian is the incarnation that help the Jade Emperor to hide among officials to monitor all parts of the Heavenly Court. [Social death warning: Jade Emperor’s secret incarnation faces exposure] Dragon King, if you take another step forward, it will be an offense against Heaven’s dignity. Thank you for your kindness, Dragon King. Although the Heavenly Court has just started, the Tao of Heaven and orders are established by it. Living beings in the Four Seas were suffering, so His Majesty sent General Hua to uphold justice. Then, I will thank General Hua and the Heavenly Court for your help with this wine. As expected, Changshou has recognized Martial Uncle Jade Emperor. He is very thoughtful. He cut off Xifang’s scheme and facilitated communication between Heavenly Court and the Dragons. However, as this edict has been issued, Changshou’s undermining of Xifang Taoism can no longer remain unknown. Sea God is the bridge between the Dragons and Heavenly Court. If he becomes a Right God and is blessed with a heavenly magic weapon, he will definitely become our obstacle when conquering the Dragons. Jingchan. Elder Bailian. But you ‘re not old, you look younger than everyone else. The forces behind Sea God are complex. To avoid getting into trouble, it is best to get rid of him with a borrowed knife. Jinguang, Senior Gongming got into a conflict with Taoist Bailian because someone set him up. The purpose is to sow discord between the two sects. This has been spreading all over the island. In the Battle of the East Sea, The reason why Martial Uncle Gongming intercepted Taoist Bailian was to ruin Xifang Taoism’s plans. How did this become another story after reaching Golden Turtle Island? [Qin Wan, Jie Taoism] Dare to set Senior Gongming up? This means they don’t take us, [Lady Jinguang, Jie Taoism] the Ten Heavenly Lords of Golden Turtle Island, seriously. Martial Uncle Jinguang always defends Martial Uncle Gongming, and Martial Uncle Qin Wan favors Martial Uncle Jin Guang the most. According to to Taoist Bailian, the person behind this is South Sea Sea God. Brother Sect Leader ? It’s Xifang Taoism who’s stirring up trouble again. A wild god dares to set Senior Gongming up? Wan. Let’s go fight him! Oh no. Brother Sect Leader is in big trouble. I can’t stop these two Martial Uncles. I can only… It was you who set up Zhao Gongming, Jie Taoism’s outer follower? Wan, why bother asking. How could something Taoist Bailian personally said be false ? Qin Wan? Lady Jinguang [*golden light]? These are the two who set up ten lethal arrays during the Name List Catastrophe. They are this easy to rile up? Absolutely not. For the sake of Tongtian Hierarch’s swordplay diagram, please let me explain. Well, you even cheated Senior Gongming of Master’s swordplay diagram! It was a gift. If we had this diagram, we would worship it, how could we give it away? What a hasty deduction. Wan. For Senior Gongming’s reputation, tie this diagram thief up and take him to the West to apologize! If so, I will get killed. Qin Wan excels at setting up killing arrays. I can’t lose my life. Earth Escape. Earthly Fire Array. Since he knows so many escape techniques, he must be a thief. Freezing Ice Array. Interesting. Arrays can be broken by escape techniques. Let me try other arrays. Here I go. I’ve got no chance to win them. How about destroying this paperman myself ? But the rumors still wouldn’t be cleared up. Stop! Fortunately, Martial Nephew Ao Yi sent the message in time. Juniors, do not listen to rumors. Hesperus is a dear friend of mine. Thank you very much. So this is a misunderstanding. Please give me a chance to apologize, fellow Taoist Hesperus. Let’s go have fun… Fellow Taoist Hesperus, this is all my fault. You are Senior Gongming’s dear friend, so you are my dear friend as well. From today on, whoever dares to speak poorly of you will be my enemy. Could Lady Jinguang be Mr. Zhao’s biggest fan? The misunderstanding has been cleared though, we have to go to Golden Turtle Island to completely clear up the rumors. Immortal Yunxiao almost saw through me. You could think of stopping Xifang Taoism, saving the Dragons, and supporting the Heavenly Court, of course you can see through what is behind these rumors. Be careful. As such an intelligent person, she still chooses to actively respond to the Name List Catastrophe. She is respectable and tragic because she values ​​​​affection and personal loyalty. I have to be more careful, in case Xifang Taoism has another move. The rumors were cleared up so quickly. It seems that the method of killing with a borrowed knife did not work. We will have to use the most direct way. Sea God always uses incarnations when going out. If we want to kill him, we must find his true form. This one can capture the spiritual sense in any incarnation to locate the true form. [Episode 32] Sea God’s investiture will be held in two days. If we want to kill Sea God, we have to kill him in these two days. Find a way to lure his incarnation out and then use this Spirit-locking Soul-chasing Butterfly. Yes, sir. Does he think I’m stupid? If I killed Sea God, there would be no way Great Mage of Xuandu would let me go. Hold on. This is a serious matter . I will personally protect you. This is bad. Jingchan still doesn’t trust me. Did you hear me? Yes, Mr. Jingchan. What should I do? Being right under his nose, it’s impossible for me to notify Sea God. Something happened in Xiong Village. South Sea Sea God. If you still don’t show yourself, I’ll kill them. Attacking with Black Mosquitoes with Bloody Wings can prevent Jingchan from being suspicious and hint at my identity to Sea God. Is it Wenjing? Did she betray me? No. She just sent me the information after the Battle of the East Sea. I don’t think she’d betray me . Let me keep an eye on the situation first. Character Shen Paperman, [* god/spirit] go. Soul-Eradicating Array. Black Mosquito with Bloody Wings, why do you hurt innocents? Oh no. This butterfly can capture my spiritual sense and track my true form. Paperman Triggered Self-destruction Program, activate. That incarnation of Sea God is just a Celestial Immortal. Your Blood Mosquito puppet is a Golden Immortal. Yet, the incarnation of Sea God can get self-exploded and escaped so easily. Wenjing, it’s hard for me not to doubt you. Please give me another chance, sir. Sea God, I’m sorry. Wenjing seemed to let me off the hook just now on purpose. Otherwise, my paperman incarnation wouldn’t have successfully self-destructed so easily. Could it be…? I got it. No wonder Wenjing has been behaving strangely. Jingchan must be there, threatening and testing Wenjing to kill me. So evil. They are coming. The butterfly has found all the papermen I placed outside. If this continues, it will find my true form sooner or later. The Butterfly has been wrong for eighteen times in a row. But it’s okay, it has captured a large amount of Sesa God’s spiritual sense. Now is the time for it to show its power. Oh no. Blood cocoons will be formed wherever my spiritual sense exists. Once my true form is confirmed, the butterfly will be teleported directly to me. And I can only use papermen to constantly cover for my true form. This butterfly has become stronger. I need to use the time difference between the blood cocoon appearing and the butterfly being teleported to continuously throw papermen and continuously get it self-destructed. Earth Escape. What should I do? As long as this drags on for two days, there is hope. To protect Wenjing’s from exposing her identity and keep my true form safe, this is the only way. [Teleportation Array] [Boom] It’s finally over. I didn’t expect to save my life at Jingchan’s hands. To help me keep my cover , Sea God has blown up his incarnations for two days. He has really got something. [Big Brother] Three thousand and eighty-one papermen? In two days? Did we self-destruct 3681 papermen? What a waste. How many days and nights have I spent creating them? Oh my God. When dealing with this crisis, I had too few contingency plans and insufficient treasures to fight the butterflies. After I get back, I must do a thorough review. He has Heavenly Court behind him, while I have Ling Mountain behind me . Ling Mountain? Is he going to find Zhunti Sage? I must notify Sea God immediately. Jingchan is even able to ask Zhunti to deduce the location of my true form. Taiji Diagram. But, I’ve also got a sage supporting me. Senior Taiqing is covering for him. The site for the Sea God Investiture is up ahead. Get the title of Sea God first, and make plans later. She is here too? Congratulations, Sea God. Junior Yunxiao has been in retreat at Three Immortals Island. She rarely comes out. Even I haven’t seen her much. I am good friends with Mr. Gongming. Perhaps Immortal Yunxiao is here out of respect for Mr. Gongming… This has nothing to do with me. Yunxiao. .. She… Right, the reason she’s here is because I persuaded her to come. Dear juniors, have you been well? Senior Xuandu. Why have you come as well, Senior? Sea God is a disciple of Human Taoism, of course, I have to come. Thank you all for attending the ceremony. The Sect Leader was able to invite the Great Mage of Xuandu. So awesome. I am just a Real Immortal now. If I want to revitalize the Dragons, I still need to learn a lot from Sect Leader. Sea God, come forward to receive your title. After the Sea God Investiture, I was officially named the Heavenly Court Sea God, mainly in charge of wars, plagues, soldiers , disasters among the Four Seas, and will enjoy Heavenly Court treatment from now on. [Li Changshou’s personal account (intercepted)] I’ll have a fixed merit income every year. [Merit Income: Karma Withholding:-250 Merit Subtotal:] Ao Yi has become the General of the Four Seas and will help me conquer the Four Seas. The Jade Emperor also bestowed sixteen god positions upon the Dragons, each of which has been received by one of sixteen True Dragons. It’s the karma of the Dragons . The Dragons’ karma they have carried since the day they were born have all washed away by merits. Karma has been cleared. We, the Dragons, have hope. From today on, I, Taoist Changgeng, have finally become the Heavenly Court Sea God. [Level 1 Qi Refining] [Virtual Refining] A tremendous Sea God Investiture can not only frighten the Dragons and point them to the path of ascension, but also warn Xifang Taoism to not take action hastily. Immortal, you are extremely intelligent, being well aware of the turmoil behind the Sea God Investiture. But I still do not understand why you are so cautious of Xifang Taoism. You have Human Taoism to lean on. Even though Xifang Taoism has two sages, they might not make things difficult for you. When you have not become a sage, you are no match for sages. We must not be careless. What you said does make sense. I really can’t bear that Immortal Yunxiao might die during the Name List Catastrophe, so I couldn’t ‘t help but remind her. I don’t know whether it could really affect her. Second Supreme Master, what should we do now? South Sea Sea God has officially been granted a right god position of Heavenly Court. We can’t attack him thoughtlessly. Killing Sea God is a means, not an end. There is only one end goal, but there can be many ways to achieve the goal. You mean the Dragons? Let me ask you, through this Sea God Investiture, what did you see? The Heavenly Court bestowed sixteen god positions upon the Dragons. And the Dragons selected sixteen True Dragons of noble birth but no tangible achievements to receive the positions. The low-level Jiao soldiers who’ve made great contributions were not rewarded. It is no wonder that there are so many rebels within the Dragons. Why didn’t the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas attend the ceremony? None of the Dragons’ seniors attended the Sea God Investiture. This is a move that allows the Dragons to either advance or retreat. Oh? Advancing will help the Dragons with their ascension, and retreating will help they keep their dominance in the seas. Based on today’s situation, there is still a long way to go before the Dragons Kings of the Four Seas bows down to the Heavenly Court. On the surface, it seems that the Dragons want to ascend, but in fact, the Dragons have more of a wait -and-see attitude toward the Heavenly Court. They can still be won over. Very good. You know what to do then. Thank you, Second Supreme Master. The hidden chess we’ve placed in Chan Taoism can now play its role. As expected from the one Master favors, you’ve got it all figured out. After you report to Heavenly Court tomorrow, come to Tushita Palace, Master wants to see you. Tushita Palace? I ‘m going to see Taishang Laojun, the incarnation of Taiqing Sage. Great! This is the best time to ride on the sage’s coattails. Yes, sir. [Episode 33] How did you feel being summoned in the Cloud Palace? His Majesty, the Jade Emperor, is treating the Dragons generously. I am very grateful. Sea God. General Ao Yi. Please wait. His Majesty heard that Laojun had summoned Sea God, so His Majesty specially ordered me to escort Sea God to Tushita Palace. Thank you, Mugong. Thank you, Your Majesty. [Cloud Palace] Sea God, you’ve received a level 4 god position after having just been admitted to the Heavenly Court. His Majesty is really fond of you. Level 4? The god positions of the Heavenly Court are clearly divided. Mugong, I’m certain that you’ve made great contributions to it. This was all His Majesty’s ingenious idea. His Majesty divided the Heavenly Court’s god positions into six levels. [Level 1] The first level consists of His Majesty and the Queen Mother. [Level 2] The second level consists of Great Immortals with real power and fiefs. There is only one exception. The exception is the superior level 1 hidden boss, Taiqing Sage’s Heavenly-Court-residing incarnation, Taishang Laojun. [Level 3] The The third level consists of the kings of gods, star deities, and true deities. Yue Lao is also one of them. [*the matchmaker deity] The fourth level consists of right gods and generals . [Level 4] The Position of Sea God is at level 4. The fifth and sixth levels consist of auxiliary gods, who are responsible for assisting right gods from level 1 to 4. [Level 5] General Ao Yi is at level 5. His Majesty values ​​Sea God and the Dragons. In addition to rewards, many treasures have also been bestowed. You two have boundless prospects. Ahead of you is the specially cultivated Senzu Beans’ seedling fields, which was set up by the Heavenly Court to popularize Sea God’s Casting Beans to Create Soldiers. Tushita Palace is just behind the Senzu Bean fields. When the Senzu Beans’ seedlings mature, they will bear Senzu Beans. Then, all heavenly soldiers and generals can use Casting Beans to Create Soldiers. Heavenly Court’s combat power will definitely be greatly increased. I am Bian Zhuang, Young Master of Tianya Pavilion. Do you have a Taoist partner? Why is he here? Do you know Bian Zhuang, General Ao Yi? Such a thievish-looking guy. He must be a bad person. I don’t know him. Why is this person farming beans in front of Tushita Palace? Not long ago, Bian Zhuang was begging outside the Southern Heavenly Gates, saying that in order to be worthy of the one he loves, he must enter the Heavenly Court to make contributions. His Majesty felt his sincerity, recruited him , and ordered him to serve as the Bean-planting Heavenly General. This is Changgeng, Xuanshangwuque Supreme God of the Four Seas, and this is Ao Yi, General of the Four Seas Navy. He looks so similar to Immortal Le’er. General , do you have a younger sister called Ke Le’er? I have long admired Immortal Le’er. I only wish to marry her. If she is your sister, please help me grant my wish, Brother-in-law. Grant your wish? You mean you? Let me teach you a lesson! Brother -in-law, why are you doing this? Calm down, Brother-in-law. Tushita Palace has not been this lively in a long time. Greetings, Great Mage . Greetings, Great Mage. One of you is the General of the Four Seas Navy, the other is the Bean-planting Heavenly General. As you both serve the Heavenly Court, it is not appropriate to start a feud. I would like you two to shake hands and make peace. Are you willing to do so? But he broke my wooden hoe for plowing. This is a spare rake from Tushita Palace. If you do not mind, use this to take care of the bean fields. Thank you for the gift, Great Mage. Bian Zhuang is really lucky. He Entered the Heavenly Court, became a general, and received a treasure from Tushita Palace. Looking at this silver rake. It has nine teeth. Wait… Nine teeth.. .? Nine-tooth Iron Rake? Could Bian Zhuang be the future Marshal Tianpeng, Second Senior who goes to the West to get Buddhist scriptures? Such a big karma staying outside Tushita Palace to plant beans? I have to be careful. Follow me. Master has been waiting for you for half a day. Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace? It refined Great Sage Sun’s Golden-gaze Fiery-eyes in Journey to the West. When a furnace brick falls, it can ignite an 800-li Mountain of Flames . Both its fire and bricks are infinitely powerful. It can be called the dream furnace of Qi cultivators who refine Pills in the primordial world. Every plant in the Tushita Palace has infinite inner accumulation. All these immortals will be involved in the Name List Catastrophe . By showing me this, what is Taishang Laojun trying to tell me ? [Taishang Laojun, Heavenly Court] So young? Is the portrait wrong or is Taiqing Sage specially using such an incarnation to show the difference? [Picture for reference only, the actual object shall prevail] Why are you stunned? Follower Li Changshou greets Laojun. Sit. A catastrophe is coming, the chance of survival is with the heavens. According to my memories from Blue Star, the Name List Catastrophe is to select right gods for the Heavenly Court. Taishang Laojun wants me to help Heavenly Court to fill the god positions to prevent the Catastrophe and protect Taoism. But my cultivation is only at Celestial Immortal Realm. [Celestial Immortal] How can I take on this important task? Today, I will pass on three articles of alchemy to you. I just thought my cultivation isn’t enough, and Taishang Laojun is going to pass on alchemy to me. Let him concentrate on enlightenment. Do not disturb him. Yes, Master. [Big Brother] I’ve gained so much insight on alchemy at once. I’m afraid the Golden Immortal Calamity will come early. My cultivation has improved too fast, but my foundation of Tao is not strong enough. I will die if I undergo the calamity now. I must slash the Tao flower again. Again? Having had Master pass on the alchemy, his realm has greatly improved. He must strengthen his foundation of Tao before undergoing the calamity. I have traveled the primordial world for many years, but I have never seen anyone slash their own Tao flower to strengthen their foundation of Tao. Changshou is too cautious. His 108-petal Tao flower is almost transparent. No wonder Master pays special attention to Changshou. This guy is more than just a strategist, he also has the potential to become a Taoist master. My foundation of Tao is solid enough. His foundation of Tao is so perfect, which means his Golden Immortal Calamity will be extremely dangerous. Even the slightest carelessness will result in death. Your Golden Immortal Calamity is coming. I asked Master for two Nine-turn Golden Pills. Put them away and take them at any time. The legendary death-reversing and fortune-mediating Nine-turn Golden Pill. As long as you aren’t instantly chopped into ash, you will be resurrected with full HP after taking it. I have chosen the location to undergo the calamity in advance. I would like to ask for your protection, Great Mage. I’m afraid the Nine- turn Golden Pills won’t be enough . Go to the location and wait. I will be right there. I will wait, but the calamity will not. Great Mage. Where are you going? The Golden Immortal Calamity is also called the Immortality Calamity . It is the path living beings must take to escape from life and death. It is more dangerous than the Catastrophe of Immortality. The calamity cloud is already gathering. Why is the Great Mage still not here? Slashing the Tao flower is useless. I just can’t lower my cultivation. Changshou. So this is his real name. Changgeng. Changshou. Don’t they mean the same thing? This guy is too scared of death. Great Mage, why did you reveal my real name? Because Junior Yunxiao’s Vessel of Chaos can help you survive the calamity, so I went to invite her. Having talked with fellow Taoist Changgeng several times before, I have gained some enlightenment and have great respect for you. Sea God, you really are something. Yunxiao never cares about external affairs. But this time… Thank you very much, Immortal Yunxiao. Immortal Yunxiao is truly beautiful and kind-hearted. Nine-turn Golden Pills plus Vessel of Chaos. With both internal and external use, I’ll have double insurance. The success rate of undergoing the calamity is increased to 98 percent. The calamity cloud is coming again so soon. Fellow Taoist Changgeng. Both Senior Xuandu and I will be outside the calamity cloud. If you find something is wrong, call for help at any time. I won ‘t. Just let me impress you. Taoist Ancestor? It seems that my various accidents during the Catastrophe of Immortality deceived the Tao of Heaven too many times that manual service has been triggered and Taoist Ancestor is coming to confirm things personally? He’s actually alarmed Taoist Ancestor? How severe is his calamity going to be? Are you? Yes. I, Taoist follower Li Changshou, am informing the heavens. Having been practicing Taoism till now, I’ve finally achieved the Taoist realm after many hardships. Heaven and Earth, Tao is tranquil. Presenting my Tao here today, I pray that the heavens will descend the Golden Immortal Calamity and the chance of immortality upon me. This is the first rank of Golden Immortal Calamity, the Ten-thousand-spirit Catastrophe. Only Taoist Ancestor’s Purple Cloud Catastrophe is above it. He actually cultivated an infinite and perfect foundation of Tao. Infinite perfection is the basis for sanctification. A Ten-thousand-spirit Catastrophes triggered by such a foundation of Tao has rarely happened since ancient times. Only Very few living beings has survived it. I’m afraid Fellow Daoist Changgeng will face many perils today. So this time, we must be prepared to steal him away from the Golden Immortal Calamity. The hidden chess in Chan Taoism is about to come out of retreat, he will be available to us then. Little Jingchan. If we want to control the Dragons, just having a hidden chess is not enough. Last time at the Eye of the East Sea, Sea God’s Casting Beans to Create Soldiers caused you to suffer heavy losses. Have you thought of a way to deal with it? Looks like you have something up your sleeve. Rumors say a precious treasure is about to appear from the Blood Sea underground. If you obtain the treasure, you will definitely be able to break Casting Beans to Create Soldiers. And in the future, we, Xifang Taoism, will have the upper hand on conquering the Dragons. [Episode 34] These are illusions formed by celestial lightning. They’re extremely powerful. I can’t just take it without protecting myself. Taoist powers, Character into a Spell. Self-developed Talisman, Protective Golden Light Talisman. My true appearance has been exposed. So that is how you really look. He’s so cunning. How can he be a kid who is less than 200 years old? Changgeng is in the midst of a struggle between sects. One false move could be catastrophic. So… Senior Xuandu, don’t worry. We will not tell anyone about his true appearance. He is going to war with the catastrophe. Army of Papermen, Senzu Bean Corps. Charge. These forty-nine dragon and phoenixes are all at Golden Immortal level. I can’t survive with my level of cultivation. I can only… Five Elements rotate. Heaven and Earth. Nine Heavens pierces the clouds. Lightning strikes in a flash. Lightning Escape. He escaped into the celestial lightning? Using the power of the celestial lightning to break the dragon’s and phoenix’s illusions. No living being has ever done this before. It has never been done before, so it cannot be done? He really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. Why is he standing still? This is Catastrophe of Heart, formed by inner demons. If one’s Taoist heart wavers, they won’t be able to break away from it until they have been struck into ashes by lightning. Master? So you did hide your cultivation. You’ve already known about it? I brought you into Duxian, hoping you would become a role model for the Humans. Hoping you not bully others because they’re weak, and not fear others because they’ re strong. But what did you do? I hid my cultivation because I didn’t want to get involved in karma. I have never harmed anyone. When demons attacked the mountain, with your power, you could have saved many fellow followers. But Honestly speaking, did you try your best to save them? You calculate everything, weigh gains and losses and see the right and not do it. How are you worthy of becoming an immortal? I will clean house today. He is badly injured. If he still doesn’t wake up, he will be struck into pieces. I’ll go save him. Wait a while longer. The catastrophe is both a trial and an opportunity. If we intervene, I’m afraid it will delay his cultivation .Die ! Alright. As long as you are fine. My master will get angry at me, scold me and hit me, but he would never kill me. You are not him! Karma has its own way. Regarding matters of the world, it is not better to have foresight. I have survived the Golden Immortal Calamity. Heaven and earth are close to me. All beings coexist with me. I am unbound by destiny. Tao resonates with me. Having jumped out of the Six Paths, I am no longer human. The Five Elements live together with yin and yang. The cultivation to be an Immortal should be at ease There’s more? His cultivation advanced too quickly, and he escaped into celestial lightning during the catastrophe, which violated the Tao of Heaven. Why hasn’t ‘t the calamity cloud dispersed? Thanks for the punishment, Tao of Heaven. Again? Vessel of Chaos. Open. The Tao of Heaven really cannot tolerate him. Let me calculate. Taoist Ancestor? You have slashed your Tao Flower nine times, right ? He has come to settle the score. In order to delay the Golden Immortal Calamity, I deceived the Tao of Heaven nine times by slashing my Tao Flower. I just wanted to be on the safe side. Waiting until you have a 98 percent certainty ? Why don’t you wait for 100 percent certainty before ascending to Daluo? You’ve been spoiled. This is all caused by being too cautious. Senior Xuandu, what’s going on? Mysteries of heaven must not be revealed. But with the Nine -turn Golden Pills, punishment of immortality can only badly injure him. This catastrophe is seriously not an easy one. Your Majesty. Consolation measures for Heavenly Court’s right gods have been sorted out. Oh, right. Add one more to it: if you enter the Heavenly Court and become a right god, you will be exempt from one punishment of immortality and one piece of celestial lightning when undergoing the Golden Immortal Calamity. After I’ve just narrowly survived the catastrophe, the Heavenly Court adds a new benefit for right gods to undergo catastrophes. I just suffered from more punishment of immortality and celestial lightning for no reason. [Big Brother] [Twelve years later] Three years to comprehend alchemy. Twelve years to ascend to Golden Immortal. Fifteen years have passed. Fortunately , I left papermen at Xiaoqiong Peak, Sea God Sect, and Heavenly Court. No one has noticed I’ve been missing. Immortal Yunxiao, I am fine now. Thank you for keeping guard for these twelve years. You have helped us as well . In addition, Senior Xuandu has entrusted you to me. Of course, I should do my best. I often move around as incarnations, and there are secrets of which I cannot speak. About the Golden Immortal Calamity… Don’t worry . I know it has not been easy for you to keep fighting with Xifang Taoism. I have told my two younger sisters not to say anything to others. She’s treating me so sincerely. I’m owing her more and more. Since I can escape the Name List Catastrophe by ascending to the Heavenly Court, perhaps I can also help her escape from the fate of entering it. Yunxiao entered the catastrophe for her sworn brother Zhao Gongming’s death. If I can help Zhao Gongming avoid death, then she.. . When you are free, just come visit Three Immortals Island. Senior Xuandu is full of praise for your intelligence. I would also like to talk about Tao with you. I wonder if I will be enlightened. Thank you for the invitation. If the time is right, I will definitely visit here. Qiongxiao, what are they talking about? We ‘ll know once we question him. Why do they want to kill me all of a sudden? Miss Qiongxiao. Miss Bixiao. What do you want? This is the Truth Orb. If the orb is green, it means you are telling the truth; if it turns red… Then you’d better be careful of my Golden Dragon Scissors! Are you a man? Yes. Why do you always appear as an incarnation? I’m afraid of death. You are so timid and dare to approach my eldest sister? Are you at the behest of Senior Xuandu? So they’re afraid that their sister is too innocent and will be plotted against. Their way… Well, It’s very typical of the Three Xiaos. No. Do you have improper thoughts about my eldest sister ? No. You’re lying. What answer should it be? Should I have said that I have improper thoughts about Miss Yunxiao? Then you admit that you have improper thoughts about my eldest sister? Don’t panic, young man. After all , my eldest sister is so gentle. Although she is sometimes very naggy and disciplines us around all the time. A casual grounding would last tens of thousands of years. She is even more scary when she becomes angry. She loves to dance when she’s drunk , but she’s not good at dancing. Kneel. Where did he go? The Three Xiaos took me totally off guard. Now that I have become a Golden Immortal and have a god position in the Heavenly Court, it’s time to start the second step of the Heavenly Court ascension plan, Xiaoqiong Peak wandering plan. Get all members of Xiaoqiong Peak god positions. [Changshou’s imagination] Wander to the Heaven Court. It would be best to move Xiaoqiong Peak up there too. Just be next to the Tushita Palace. So, we can be neighbors with Taishang Laojun. We’d feel so safe and secure. And then, we’ll escape the Name List Catastrophe together. The Heavenly Court’s basic hiring requirement is one must reach the True Immortal Realm. It shouldn’ t be difficult with Junior and Xiong Lingli’s talents. But it will be more difficult for Master to ascend to the Heavenly Court. Martial Aunt Wan Jiangyu’s death has always gawed at Master’s mind. It is also the reason why he can’t make a breakthrough . If I want to help Master ascend to the True Immortal Realm, I must find Martial Aunt Wan first. I once saw in Kuai Si’s memory that Martial Aunt Wan still has souls left in the world. Maybe I can try to find her remnant soul to clear the karma. Changshou. Why did the Senior’s matter alarm the Sect Master as well? We have too few connections. If we want to find a trace of a remnant soul in this vast world, we can only ask the Sect Master. Master . Where are we going? To find the remnant soul, we need to go to the Six Paths for Reincarnation. During the Great War of Witches and Demons, living beings died tragically. Countless lonely souls are wandering the world. The ancestral witch Houtu could not bear it, so she turned into the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk to quell the primordial world and led Witches to establish the Six Paths for Reincarnation to take charge of the souls of all living beings. There is a war underground. How will we go to the Six Paths for Reincarnation to find Senior’s remnant soul? [Episode 35] Those warriors are all Witches. Be careful. They are coming this way . Hold your breaths. Retreat. Who are the Witch fighting? And who shot the poisonous arrows? This The war involves two major races of the underground. One is the Witch, born from the corpse of Pangu Sage, with the strength of Pangu’s body. They’re strapping and mighty, far beyond the ordinary people. Strapping? That’s kind of similar to Xiong Village’s style. The other is the Shura, created by the tainted blood of Pangu Sage. They carry deadly poisons. Those arrows with Blood Poison were their handiwork. To fight for supremacy of the underground, they have been at war for tens of thousands of years. The Six Paths for Reincarnation is controlled by the Witch. If we want to enter the mansion to find Martial Aunt Wan’s soul remnants, we must not offend the Witch and get involved in the war between the two races. Everyone, hide your auras and follow the Sect Leader closely. Is this the Six Paths for Reincarnation of the Witch? Why are there no guards? They all went out to fight? Who is trespassing the Six Paths for Reincarnation? Beware. This witch is extraordinary. He’s Wu Niu, an ancient warrior who fought in the Great War of Witches and Demons three times. Messing around here? I’ll kill you! [Wu Niu, Six Paths for Reincarnation] There is the Six Paths for Reincarnation underground. The impartial judge distinguishes between the loyal and the traitorous. With Wu Niu and Wu Ma on each side. [* witch ox, witch horse] The famous Soul-hooking Marshal Wu Niu is him? The guy with a heavy accent? Marshal Wu Niu, I am the Sect Leader of Duxian. We are not here to pick a quarrel, but to ask the Six Paths for Reincarnation to help us find a strand of soul remnants. Marshal, please help us for the sake of Taoist Sages . push me with Sages? This is the Six Paths for Reincarnation, a place under the protection of Goddess Houtu. That won’ t work on me. Who knows whether you are Shura scum in disguise? Don’t bully my master! It’s odd . Why does she have witch aura? Wu Niu is deliberately making things difficult for us. Oh no. Sect Leader’s rage is through the roof. If we have a falling out with the Six Paths for Reincarnation, it’ll be difficult to find Martial Aunt Wan’s soul remnants. Sect Leader. It is better to make friends than make enemies. Please allow me to try something. Coming at me alone? You are pretty arrogant. – Senior! – Changshou! There it is. Senior’s gopher tactics. Greetings , Marshal Wu Niu. I’m Changshou. Brat, are you messing with me? A Tao of Heaven Weapon? Shouldn’ t it be only found in the Heavenly Court? Marshal, have you heard of Sea God from the Heavenly Court? The on who mobilized heavenly soldiers for the East Sea? Yes. He is my friend. He gifted this to me. He said the Jade Emperor is interested in helping the Witch. If we could get him to put in a good word for the Six Paths for Reincarnation, it may be possible to mobilize one million heavenly soldiers to help the Six Paths for Reincarnation fight the Shura. Changshou. You are a distinguished guest of the Six Paths for Reincarnation. Treat here as your own home. That’s not necessary. How did Changshou do that? [Junior Mage of Xuandu] After all, he is the Great Mage of Xuandu’s illeg… . ..immortal seedling with great potential. Such strong Yin Qi. Even the wind seems to be carrying cries and screams. Yin Qi seems to come from these wells. These are the Soul-returning Wells of the Six Paths for Reincarnation. Each well is connected to a part of the Five Continents. They are also my channels for capturing souls. If a trace of soul still exists, it can be found here. Senior died in Beijulu Continent. We need to find the corresponding well. Martial Aunt Wan’s soul remnants are over there. Six Paths suppress evil. Hook and capture souls. Although it is a soul remnant, if it is refined with soul-nurturing pills, it can still be completed. Once her soul is gathered, we can ask Marshal Wu Niu to send her to reincarnate. But, that pill is extremely difficult to refine. I had prepared a lot of pills to overcome the catastrophe, perhaps some can be of use. Oh wow, so many precious pills. Did the Great Mage pass all these to him? Poison Gold Stove , activate. I can use the alchemy that Taiqing Sage taught me. Six do not enter rashly, three do not exit rashly. Turbidity is gone, vitality flows. Senior? Senior. [Big Brother] It has been nine hundred years since our last meet. Senior. I’m late. [Wan Jiangyu, Duxian] Junior? It’s me. I failed to live up to expectations. I have only become a Turbid Immortal. I have become so old. I have embarrassed you, Senior. Who said you are old? Junior, you have obviously grown up. Senior, I always seem to be one step behind. One step away from our sect’s top ten. One step away from becoming an immortal. It is only one step, but it seems that I can never catch up. What’s the hurry? Cultivation is letting nature take its course. Do not obsess over it. Besides, I will help you. Bridge of Helplessness is the path to reincarnation. There is no turning back. Even if you meet again, you will be strangers. She died because of you. Crossing the bridge separates this life and the next. You cannot catch up. You can never catch up! Senior! It was me that Kuai Si wanted to kill back then. I should have been the one to die. I should be the one to cross the bridge. I will come with you… If there is a beginning, there is an end. This life is over, no need to be stubborn. But. .. I will also cultivate and seek Tao in my next life. When that time comes, you would be a Real Immortal, right? The road to immortality is long. We will eventually meet again. [Wu Po, Six Paths for Reincarnation] Drink the Wangyou Soup, forget the mortal world. I will definitely live until the day I meet you again, Senior. This life has been so hard for Master and Martial Aunt Wan. No one knows how much karma is involved in love. Fortunately, Master finally untied the knot in his heart. As long as he breaks through to Real Immortal, he would be able to enter Heavenly Court and avoid the catastrophe. There will always be a chance for them to rekindle their relationship. Taiqing Sage has sent a message! What is that bead? [Sea God in danger] Someone is coming after the Sea God. Sea God. My master wants to see you. Show your true form right now. Who is your master? My master? The twelve Golden Immortals address him as Master. Well-versed in Taoism, Heaven and Earth. There is Tao fire inside Yuanjue Cave. There is a bright light in Lingjiu Mountain. Taoist Randeng, the Deputy Sect Leader of Chan Taoism? The mighty who passed the Linglong Pagoda to Li Jing in Investiture of the Gods. He is a teacher and a friend to Chan Taoism’s Sage Yuanshi Buddha. Even the Great Mage of Xuandu has to address him respectfully. Taiqing Sage deduced that I would be in danger. Could it be because of him? I am not available. Please be on your way. I wonder why Randeng is looking for me. I need to ask someone about it. Huanglong Immortal is one of Chan Taoism’s Twelve Golden Immortals. He should know something. The Deputy Sect Leader was invited by a Xifang Taoism Great Follower to be the guarantor and to take you to discuss matters of the Dragon . He is vouching for Xifang Taoism? Xifang Taoism once sent Taoist Mosquito to instigate infighting among the Three Sects of Taoism, [ Human , Jie , Chan] causing anger among the three sects. reported the Twin Sages to the Three Taoist Sages, forcing the Xifang Taoism to cut their ties with Taoist Mosquito. Jie Taoism’s Mr. Gongming almost rushed to Ling Mountain to seek revenge. Fortunately, Immortal Yunxiao stepped forward to stop him. Why is the Deputy Sect Leader of Chan Taoism…? I find it strange as well. Everyone is dissatisfied with Xifang Taoism. I do not know what the Deputy Sect Leader is thinking, making friends with a Xifang Taoism Great Follower. After the Name List Catastrophe, Randeng betrayed Taoism with several Chan Taoism’s Golden Immortals and transformed into Xifang Taosim’s Elder God Randeng. He is probably hiding many secrets. Could the Great Follower who is on good terms with him be Jingchan? Mr. Huanglong, to tell you the truth, Xifang Taoism’s Jingchan already has a grudge against me because of the East Sea incident. He even sent Spirit-locking Butterflies to track my movements. And now, Deputy Sect Leader Randeng has asked me to show my true form. Could it be that he wants to kill you for Jingchan? I’ll go reason with him. Mr. Huanglong, do not rush. Deputy Sect Leader Randeng will likely come looking for me himself. Sir, I ‘d like to trouble you to stay hidden and record my meeting with him using the Voice-Image Sphere. The cold and biting light has frozen the spiritual sense I left in the paperman as well. Is this Randeng’s innate weapon, Coffin Lamp? What a coffin lamp. Oh no! My spiritual sense has been sucked away. With Chan Taoism’s Deputy Sect Leader taking action, Sea God, You and I will meet again. [Episode 36] Sea God’s spiritual sense was sucked away by the Coffin Lamp, so the Voice-Image Sphere can’t record his conversation with Deputy Sect Leader. Will everything be okay? You chased my boy follower away. I had no choice but to use the Coffin Lamp to bring you here. [Taoist Randeng, Chan Taoism ] Let’s chat. If you feel unsatisfied with our conversation, you can leave at any time since the Coffin Lamp has been put away. If I leave now, I will be known as someone who does not respect the elders. Let me talk to him first. So you really are Deputy Sect Leader Randeng . This boy follower looked treacherous, so I thought he was an evildoer. I couldn’t connect him to you, the noble Deputy Sect Leader of Chan Taoism, in any way. I invited you out of kindness. It was you who…! What? You mean the Heavenly Court didn’t accept Chan Taoism’s kindness, or I provoked a dispute between the Heavenly Court and Chan Taoism? Sir. Your boy follower has not said much, but he has put the label of provocateur on me. Your boy follower has always been arrogant and domineering. Someone should teach him a lesson. You wanted to talk to Sea God about the Dragons, so I promised to be your guarantor. Now that I have invited him here with much effort, and you are turning your back on me? These two… The Dragons have not joined the Heavenly Court yet. If you want to talk about the Dragons, you have got the wrong person. If the Dragons are in trouble, are you going to just stand by? What do you mean? Enemy attack! It’s the Shura. Haven’t they always stayed in the Blood Sea underground? Why are they suddenly attacking us? The Senzu Bean Soldiers that the Sect Leader prepared in advance have all been corroded? The Shura is attacking the East Sea Dragon Palace right now. It must be Jingchan’s doing. Character Shen Paperman, report to the Jade Emperor and request for troops. [Eight-armed Shura, Shura] An Eight-armed Shura. It is said a Shura’s cultivation level is related to the number of their arms. The more arms, the higher the cultivation level. The maximum is eight arms. This Eight-armed Shura has at least reached the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm . Immortal Realm? I am only at the Real Immortal Realm. Most of the Dragons’ elites are guarding the Ten-Thousand-Dragon Array. It is difficult for me to reallocate manpower. They’re coming. This Eight-armed Shura is so powerful. Fighting him is like fighting eight people at the same time . Protective Array! Self-developed Array, Ternary Fire Sword Array. As expected of the Heavenly Court, reversing the situation with one move. Thank you for your hospitality, Deputy Sect Leader Randeng. I will take my leave now. The outcome of this battle is still undecided. How do you know we won’t have room for negotiation? Retreat. Character Di Paperman, form the Protective Array. Activate. That was so close. Such strong poisonous mist. Where did that orb come from? Oh no ! This poisonous mist can even corrode the primordial spirit? There is only my spiritual sense inside the paperman, but still, it is a part of the primordial spirit. If the spiritual sense is corroded, the primordial spirit will also be affected. At best , I will no longer be able to cultivate; at worst, my life will be at risk. Fellow Taoist Sea God, are you okay? I may be a little heaty. The Dragons’ crisis is not resolved, no wonder you are suffering these symptoms, my friend. This is a sign of worrying too much. I have an idea. Right now, the Dragons have Dragon Palaces in the Four Seas. We will take the West and the South. Fellow Taoist, you will take the North and the East. If you agree, the Dragons’ crisis can be resolved and your heatiness will naturally go away. What do you think? It’s just heatiness. I just need to stop the bleeding. It’s not that serious. Look, I’m better already. Right. You have a wide network of contacts. You are especially close to Chan Taoism’s Immortal Huanglong. If you ask him for help… That won’t do. If Sea God asked a Chan Taoism follower to help the Dragons, wouldn’t that be getting a promotion with the help of Taoism? I, Randeng, will be the first one to disagree. This is Jingchan’s real purpose for inviting Randeng here. They have already colluded to play good cop, bad cop. First, they used the Shura’s advantage on the battlefield to put pressure on me. And then , he acted in concert with Randeng to force me to negotiate. This move of Jingchan’s is really vicious. What should I do? The East Sea’s Protective Array can only prevent the Shura for a while, they will break through sooner or later. With Randeng here, I will be unable to ask my friends from the Three Sects to help. My own primordial spirit is damaged. If I do not attempt to repair it, my life will be in danger. Not to mention the Dragons’ ascension. Are we all going to die today? How could I trouble my friends from the Three Sects with such a trivial matter? Maybe I’ll get better with some green tea and white lotus seeds. No. There will be a way. There must be a way . The core of Jingchan’s setup is that orb. Right! Since it was the Shura who brought the orb, wouldn’t the Six Paths for Reincarnation, which have been dealing with the Shura for tens of thousands of years have some knowledge of it? Character Tian Paperman. Go. I can give you some time to think about it. Fellow Taoist. Please do not let me down. What did you say? You were telling me not to eat scallions, ginger, and garlic? He is burning out. Let me see how long he can play the fool. [Big Brother] Don’t worry, Changshou. Since it is Sea God who asked for help, we will definitely lend him a hand. [Wu Ma, Six Paths for Reincarnation] This is Ma, Soul-hooking Marshal Wu Ma. This is the treasure of the Shura. It is called the Blood Orb. It last appeared in the battle between the Witch and the Shura tens of thousands of years ago. It was a fierce battle between the Witch’s Goddess Houtu and the Shura’s ancestor . Shura’s ancestor was defeated, and the Shura were almost wiped out. In the end, they salvaged the situation by activating the Blood Orb, because of which, the Shura have survived to this day. The Blood Orb was also damaged in that battle. I didn’t expect it to suddenly reappear. They have gone all out. Why do you say that? It is said that this orb requires every one of the Shura to gather together to refine Pangu’s tainted blood in their bodies. The fusion of Pangu’s tainted blood and Blood Poison creates the world’s top-tier poison orb. If one is infected with the poison of this orb, is there a countermeasure? No. Then why were you talking for so long? Changshou. After all, the Blood Orb is made by refining Pangu’s tainted blood. Unless you can ask the Taoist Ancestor to unleash the punishment of immortality. But how many people in this world can see the Taoist Ancestor? The punishment of immortality? Can I trigger the punishment of immortality as I want? I suffered so much punishment while undergoing the catastrophe. Why isn’t it coming to me now? Or, I can draw the punishment of immortality over here? [Notes of Refining Pills] According to ancient texts, if a heaven-defying treasure is refined , the Tao of Heaven will unleash the punishment of immortality to destroy it. A heaven-defying treasure? I am now in the Golden Immortal Realm. If I modify the original papercutting technique to develop a Golden Immortal paperman that is at the same level as me, would that be considered heaven-defying? This is the only way . My liquor! Again. That was a spirit explosion caused by the collision of spiritual energy within the Earth’s Veins. Bear with it. Changshou. What kind of technique are you practicing? Again. If you keep this up, I will no longer be able to cover it up for you. I made it! The punishment of immortality has come. Go. This isn’t right. Shouldn’t the punishment destroy the paperman ? Why do I keep getting hacked? This is bad. If the punishment of immortality continues to hack me, there is no way my true form can withstand it. If a paperman is destroyed, it can be remade. If I lose my life, I am really dead. There is no way to restart the primordial survival game ! That is…? I am coming! The punishment of immortality? Why did it suddenly appear in the East Sea? Since that is the case, the only way is for my true form to draw the punishment of immortality here. Everyone, listen up! Attack the Shura! The Taoist Ancestor made me suffer the punishment of immortality instead of the paperman. This means that from now on, he has recognized my Golden Immortal Paperman. This wasn’t a loss. Thank you for your hospitality. My heatiness has been relieved. Goodbye. We’ve been played. He was able to trigger the punishment of immortality to destroy the Blood Orb. The Sea God is a formidable opponent indeed. [Episode 37] That is…? I am coming! Everyone, listen up! Attack the Shura! Retreat! The punishment of immortality has successfully destroyed the Bloody Orb. It’s time for my true form to go back. I ‘ll leave the rest to the Character Shen Paperman. Dragon Exploring Pace. Don’t let him get away. Want to catch me? You wish. I, General Jinwuhuntian Hua Aotian, have been waiting here by order of the Jade Emperor. Thank you, General Hua. The Jade Emperor is being dramatic again. The Blood Orb has been shattered. The Shura were ambushed and wiped out by the Heavenly Court . Jingchan. Today, you set a trap to coerce Sea God into dividing the Dragons, but the result was a total loss for you. My game with Sea God is not over yet. It is too early for you to draw your conclusion. Sea God, General Hua, thank you for helping the East Sea Dragon Palace fight off the Shura. The East Sea will never forget the Heavenly Court’s kindness. Dragon King, you’re welcome. I will take these Shura back to the Heavenly Court for the Jade Emperor to judge. [Li Changshou’s Account (Intercepted)Merit Subtotal: 27250] One closer step to the merit golden effigy. I feel really safe now. They’ve sent Deep Sea Demons to sneakily attack the Eye last time, and sent the Shura to attack the Dragon Palace this time. Changgeng, it is as you said before. If Xifang Taoism cannot divide the Dragons with the Heavenly Court, they will not hesitate to destroy the Dragons. The Dragons have been in danger many times. Fortunately, they are under the protection of the Heavenly Court. The danger of the East Sea Dragon Palace has come to an end for now. Next, the Heavenly Court just needs to deal with these Shura war criminals impartially. And there shouldn’t be any more accidents. After Pangu fell, his left eye became the Sun, from which the Golden Crow was born. And then, there was the Great War of Witches and Demons. A hundred demon clans gathered on the top of Buzhou Mountain to establish the Ancient Demon Court. The Golden Crows were regarded as the head of the hundred clans. But after the great war, the Demon Court fell apart, and the Golden Crows disappeared. Why did they suddenly appear today? I have never interacted with the Golden Crow. Who is deliberately mystifying me? You’ve first slaughtered the Deep Sea Demons and then suppressed the Shura. Sea God. How dare you place yourself above the hundred clans of the Demon Court? Lu Ya? After the fall of the Demon Court, that missing Demon Court Prince is still alive? Demon Court Prince, Lu Ya? The Taoist Lu Ya who used the Nail-headed Seven Arrows Book curse to kill Zhao Gongming in the Name List Catastrophe. His original form is actually a three-legged Golden Crow? It’s you. Red Gourd. White light. Eyes revealed in the light. This is the Immortal-Slashing Flying Blade. Oh no. My primordial spirit and spirit energy have both been sealed by the white light. When Lu Ya first showed up, he wanted to kill me. But now, he has turned his attack on Hua Aotian. Magic weapon, please turn around! He recognized Hua Aotian as an incarnation of the Jade Emperor. The Immortal-Slashing Flying Blade can directly kill the primordial spirit. And the most common incarnation techniques all require a thread of primordial spirit to be placed within the incarnation. If Hua Aotian got slashed, the Jade Emperor’s primordial spirit would be damaged, and my sin would be great. The karma has its own way. Seal. I seem to have forgotten something very important. How dare you slash the Heavenly Court’s Sea God? The top priority is to deal with Lu Ya. The Heavenly Court was established by Taoist Ancestor. Fellow Taoist. By showing this much hostility towards the Heavenly Court , are you trying to antagonize Taoist Ancestor? You’re just a dying man. You talk too much nonsense. Legend has it that all ten Golden Crow princes of the Demon Court are quasi-sages. They are only a glimmer away from becoming sages . I just became a Golden Immortal. Hua Aotian is not yet a Daluo. The disparity in strength is too great for head-on confrontation. Trace water back to its origin. Six Directions Array. The nature of the three-legged golden crow is fire, which is restricted by my nature. You think you can trap me with this? True Flames of the Sun. It’s the original power of the Golden Crow. It can even burn the primordial spirits of Daluo Golden Immortals. Magic weapon, please turn around. Oh no! The world rises and falls. Every being goes their own way. Lu Ya. Do not go against fate. [Big Brother] Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun took action personally? Fortunately, we have Taoist Ancestor’s protection. Otherwise, we would not end well today. Although Taoist Ancestor defended the Jade Emperor, he did not punish Lu Ya for attempting to kill the Jade Emperor’s incarnation before letting Lu Ya go. I feel like there’s more to it than that. I can’t think about it anymore. Purple Cloud Lightning is warning me. If a great war broke out again, there would be so much death. The Heavenly Court should act with caution in the future. Yes, sir. Your Majesty. What does Taoist Ancestor mean by “the Heavenly Court should act with caution in the future”? Back then, Dragons , Phoenixes, and Qilins shattered the primordial world. In order to protect the primordial world and mend the Tao of Heaven, Taoist Ancestor integrated himself with the Tao of Heaven. From then on, he represented the will of the Tao of Heaven, overseeing all living beings with extreme fairness. Taoist Ancestor said that just to remind the Heavenly Court to act accordingly, nothing else. Was Taoist Ancestor unable to achieve the Great Hunyuan Realm like Pangu from the same era because he integrated himself with the Tao of Heaven? Pangu created the world from chaos. The Tao of Heaven was born from it. Taoist Ancestor missed the chance to achieve cultivation on par with Pangu’s, but to represent the Tao of Heaven and be the master of the Six Sages, he is extraordinary. The Six Sages are all followers of Taoist Ancestor, but they are different. The Twin Sages of Xifang are giving the Heavenly Court a hard time. Fortunately, the Heavenly Court is protected by Sage Taiqing, the most powerful one among the Six Sages. What is this ? This is a mind map. When I’m thinking, I rely on this to organize my thoughts. You always have ingenious ideas. Among the Six Sages, Human Taoism’s Sage Taiqing stationed his incarnation, Taishang Laojun, at Tushita Palace, [Support ] meaning he supports the Heavenly Court. Chan Taoism’s Sage, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Jie Taoism’s Tongtian Master are of the Three Taoist Sages like Sage Taiqing, but they are not very close with the Heavenly Court. [Keep neutral] The Twin Sages of Xifang have been opposing the Heavenly Court at every turn on the matter of subduing the Dragons. Mother Nuwa is behind closed doors all year round. [Neutral, Support, Oppose] Her attitude is unclear. And Chan Taoism’s Deputy Sect Leader Randeng is obviously helping Xifang Taoism to oppose the Heavenly Court. The Shura that cooperated with Jingchan to attack the East Sea Dragon Palace must be taking orders from Xifang Taoism as well. Changgeng. Why do you think the Shura were taking orders from Xifang Taoism? I do not know either . The battle between the Six Paths for Reincarnation and the Shura is tense. If Xifang Taoism was not helping the Shura in this battle, they must have found a different angle. This time, you have caused the Shura to suffer heavy losses. Your collaboration would break down. I still have a treasure that will make the Shura keep obeying my orders. Do not worry about it, Deputy Sect Leader Randeng. Besides, compared to the Shura, I think you would be more concerned about Lu Ya, who suddenly appeared. Lu Ya is a Demon Court Prince. He has no enmity with Taoism. Why would I worry about him? But as for the Heavenly Court, its foundation is unstable. Now that Lu Ya is openly hostile, what should the Jade Emperor do? Since the Heavenly Court exists in name only, why don’t we…? By just roping in Deep Sea Demons and the Shura, Xifang Taoism has already inflicted heavy losses on the Dragons. If Xifang Taoism can win Lu Ya, the Demon Court Prince, over, they can command the Demon Court’s hundred clans through Lu Ya. The consequences will be disastrous. As expected, Xifang Taoism couldn’t wait to join forces with me as soon as I showed myself. The luck of the Demons is as meager as the sunset on the west mountain. Demon Court Prince. You must be unwilling to accept it. The sun sets in the evening and rises in the morning. Where fate leads is still unknown. Xifang Taoism is willing to help Your Highness change the future, rebuild the Demon Court, and take over the primordial world. Haotian. So many people want you dead. It seems you won’t be able to be the Jade Emperor for long. We’ll see. As long as Lu Ya lives, the remnants of the Demon Court will want to destroy the Heavenly Court, and an unprovoked war will be bound to break out. A war of the mighty can easily turn the world upside down. If war broke out, Xiaoqiong Peak would definitely be affected. Taoist Ancestor has ordered the Heavenly Court to act with caution and cause no further disputes. I can only entrust the important task of killing Lu Ya to you, Changgeng. The traitor must be killed in secret to restore peace to the world. I specially write this edict to you to pass my orders. It will be burned after reading. It will be burned after reading? Not even leaving the edict. If I failed to kill Lu Ya and he killed me instead, the Heavenly Court probably wouldn’t even admit that I was acting under an order. [Golden Immortal] A Golden Immortal is going to kill a Quasi-Sage? [Quasi-Sage] Li Changshou, you can change your name to Li Yaoshou! [*It means one is short -lived.] [Episode 38] Calm down. Don’t panic. To get rid of Lu Ya, I must first deal with his treasures. Immortal-slashing Flying Blade. Immortal-slashing Flying Blade is a physical attack, but Head- nailing Seven Arrows Book is a cursing technique. It can curse a Quasi-Sage like Zhao Gongming to death from a distance. If I want to deal with it, the only way is to find its nemesis, Treasure-dropping Copper Coin. This treasure was originally a coin made by Human Emperor Yu the Great when he established the business of earthly trade. Later, the Tao of Heaven sent down a lot of merit, giving it great power. It can drop all treasures, except celestial treasure and weapons. To find this treasure, I need to visit Human Emperor Yu the Great. Up ahead is Huoyun Cave, the place where all human emperors live for seclusion and cultivation. There is actually a password to enter the cave? I even have to decipher the hexagram hidden inside. [Deciphering] [Completed] Li is above, and Qian is below. This is the Dayou hexagram. There seems to be a hidden meaning behind this hexagram. I, Changgeng, the Heavenly Court’s Sea God, am here to pay a visit to our previous emperor. Sea God. You are a human of the Eastern Continent. Why are you using a paperman to handle matters? Do you not trust the Human or do you not trust the Heavenly Court behind you? Sage Taiqing is covering for me, yet he can still tell that I’m from the Eastern Continent. Who is this person? I don’t have strong skills, so I dare not travel through the primordial world in my original form. You are Sea God, but this is a land of lakes. You and I are not on the same side. He thinks that I was bribed by the Heavenly Court with an official position, and became a traitor who betrayed the Human, so I am unworthy of being a human? Rivers gather rain and dew. Hundreds of rivers eventually return to the sea. Only by being Sea God can I better serve the people of the world. I will ask you three questions. If you answer incorrectly or lie, I will go to the Eastern Continent to take your life myself. Tremendous killing intent has locked onto me. First question. You are an important official in the Heavenly Court. If the Heavenly Court descends disaster upon the Human, what will you do? What’s going on? I have no spirit energy. Your Majesty the Demon King. Please stop the rain. Nine years of heavy rain have resulted in no grain harvest. We don’t even have a place to live. Demon King? Could I have returned to the time when the Demon Court was in charge? Sir. Be careful! Don’t waste your energy, young man. You can’t outrun the flood or the sky. Are there no river embankments nearby? In the past nine years, river embankments collapsed were rebuilt, and collapsed again. This is all heaven’s will. Why aren’t these people running away? What are they digging? I see. Dig the mountain to release the flood and drain the water into the sea. Sir. Humans cannot decide when natural disasters come, but can use their strengths to overcome the disasters. Look, they are all fighting the heaven for their lives. Human strength can win against heaven. We are the victors . Leading the Human to open up mountains and control floods for thirteen years. Sir. Would you happen to be His Majesty Yu the Great? I am no longer the Human Emperor, but just a cloaked man in the mountains. The illusion has been lifted . The Demon Court used the power of the Tao of Heaven to punish the Human. Do you think whether humans should fight against heaven? Yes. [Yu the Great, the Human Emperor] In that case, how dare you abandon the Human and ascend to heaven? To use methods appropriate to the situation, there are better ways to fight. What do you mean? The Demon Court is tyrannical. If the Human want a way out, we must raise troops to attack. But currently, the Heavenly Court is rejuvenating the Human. What the Human need to fight for is the long-term development. The integration of the heaven and the Human is long-term solution. integration will be very difficult. I seem to have passed the first test. [Big Brother] Second question. If you have a disagreement with your wife, should you forbear and concede or just end your relationship? Wife? The topic just suddenly changed. The wife of the Human Emperor Yu the Great, Empress Tushan, is also the leader of the Mount Tu Fox. This question is actually asking how to deal with the relationship between the Human and the Fox, or the hundred clans. Senior! We are surrounded by the Qingqiu Fox. Our Qingqiu’s ancestors is an Immortal of the Mother Goddess Palace. Our relative, Tushan, is the wife of the Human Emperor Yu the Great. You dare to imprison our Merit Vixen? [Ms. Qingqiu, Qingqiu Fox] Hand her over right now. Otherwise, we will ask Mother Nuwa and Empress Tushan to uphold justice. Merit Vixen? It’s that fox demon Xiaolan? When I pretended to be Master, I killed a group of demons that fed on human essence with Martial Uncle Jiu Wu. Xiaolan is their eldest sister. Because she has ancestral merit, she could not be killed. She is still being suppressed within the sect. This is the real test of the second question. If I intensify the conflict between the Human and the Fox, I’m afraid Mother Goddess, Empress Tushan, and Human Emperor Dayu will all go after me. Junior. Take care of Master and do not leave the Isolation Formation. Roger that. Stinky old man. You were all grand when you hurt my sisters . If I don’t get to vent my anger, I will not leave Duxian. Sect Leader Ji. It’s up to you. You’re threatening us? I dare not. But whether the Qingqiu Fox dare is hard to tell. Fellow Taoist . Where does your anger come from? You failed to restrain your sisters from doing evil and caused them to be burdened with karma. Do you admit to this? I was wrong, but the ones who killed… Your sisters have cleared their karma. , been reincarnated, and returned to the right path in the next life. Would that be considered a good result? That makes sense. No! You have imprisoned me for so many years . It is common practice to meditate on one’s faults in retreat. What you really hate is that you’ve been alone during the long nights, without flattery from little demons by your side or the bustling of the earthly world. Fellow Taoist. Is that the case? So it’s not you I hate, it’s.. . Loneliness. Am I really lonely? Senior. I’m not lonely at all. Go copy the Art of Stability three thousand times. Having peacefully mediated the conflict between the Human and the Fox, The second question has also been answered. Peace is the most important. When one clan is unstable, every clan is unstable. Whether to negotiate to promote peace or compromise to seek peace, you should know the answer. Oh no. That answer wasn’t great. Third question. If the catastrophe is coming, how should the Human survive? Yu the Great. Why did you ask this question? Isn’t your true purpose of ascending to the Heavenly Court to avoid the catastrophe? You can avoid the catastrophe, but the mortals in the world cannot. Do you know what will happen to the Human when catastrophe strikes? Since ancient times, every catastrophe has destroyed the most prosperous race of that era. During the catastrophe of Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin, the three ancient races almost became extinct. During the catastrophe of Witches and Demons, the two clans collapsed. Currently, the Human are flourishing. If catastrophe strikes, the Immortal may narrowly escape death, the defenseless mortals… The world will burn, and only you will survive. Changgeng. Is that what you want? No. No. I want to live, and I want more people to live. But I am still too weak. Even after a hundred years of toiling planning, I have just ascended to the Heavenly Court. For sages and the Tao of Heaven, I have always been nothing. My brothers once said that the character “human” is written with two strokes; [Human] one for the frail body, the other for the lofty and unyielding character. The sky did not provide light, so Suiren drilled wood to make fire. Demons wanted to destroy the Human, so Fuxi predicted his own future. The plague caused chaos, so Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and wrote a medical book. Although Witches were powerful enemies, Xuanyuan raised his sword to attack them. We are the fire of the Human. If the fire does not go out, the Human will not be destroyed. A small fire is enough to set a prairie ablaze . If I obtain the Treasure-dropping Copper Coin and get rid of Lu Ya, the storyline of the Name List Catastrophe related to him will inevitably be changed. When there is a change, there is a chance. I am currently pursuing a person who is able to affect the catastrophe. Once it is done, the Human may have a chance to survive when catastrophe strikes. But to kill this person, I need to find a treasure. You answered this question very well. Fuxi has already foretold your coming. The treasure you seek has not yet existed. He made divination for you and left the hexagram at the entrance of the cave. You may use it to find the place where the treasure will exist. Human Emperor Fuxi. It is said that he knows fate and divination. He is also the reincarnation of Mother Nuwa’s brother. He already foretold that I’d be looking for the Treasure-dropping Copper Coin. Could the hexagram at the entrance of the cave be…? Li is above, and Qian is below. It is the Dayou hexagram. Fire breaks through the sky is just like the Treasure-dropping Copper Coin breaks the Name List Catastrophe. In addition to judging my attitude towards the Human, Yu the Great’s three questions, more importantly, helped me realize the significance of the Treasure -dropping Copper Coin to the Human. Changgeng. You have a difficult road ahead of you in the Heavenly Court. Inside is my flood-control treasure from before. It may be able to help you control the Four Seas. Remember. You are a human and a fire. I will bear it in mind. Thank you, Sir. Xifang Taoism has used hundreds of clans of the Demon Court many times. Why should I trust you? A treasure and an opportunity. Second Master has deduced that Your Highness’s future is going to change due to a treasure and that treasure is about to come into the world. [Episode 39] According to the hexagram left by Human Emperor Fuxi, the approximate location of the Treasure-dropping Copper Coins is in the Northern Continent. However, to find it within a short time, we’ll need the help of another person, Taoist Duobao, the senior disciple of Jie Taoism. He possesses an innate talent for sensing treasures, and he is keen on collecting them. Wherever there’s treasure , he’ll go and look for it. He can be called a professional treasure hunter of the primordial world. [Professional] As long as I secretly release the news that a valuable treasure will soon emerge in the Northern Continent, he would definitely be tempted to look for it. My body cannot pass through. My spiritual sense is also being blocked. It seems something is off here. Oh right, Duobao’s true form is the first treasure-seeking mouse in the world. Burrowing? What kind of power is this? He can actually bypass the Isolation Formation? Then surely I could also sneak in using this route. Walking within this tunnel makes me feel as if I’m beyond heaven and earth, as well as beyond the influence of the Five Elements. The Isolation Formation performs practically no function. Is this the true strength of Taoist Duobao? Besides the treasures of the Sages, I’m not aware of any treasure that could influence my fate. This object is taken from our sect’s most precious treasure, the Level 12 Merit Golden Lotus . It has the power to predict karma and fortune. Your Highness may take a look. This is… the Head-nailing Seven Arrows Book. With the collective efforts of many elites from the Demon Court, the Head -nailing Seven Arrows Book was finally created recently after tens of millions of years. Even a Sage may not necessarily be aware of this book. Yet unexpectedly… Could that scene truly be the turning point in my future? Where will this treasure eventually emerge? You seem to know everything about it. [Iron City] Iron City is the stronghold of the Iron Demons among the hundred clans of the Demon Court. The Treasure-dropping Copper Coins are within the territory of the Demon Court? [Lord of Iron City, Demon Clan] – My Lord. – My Lord. Keep an eye out for any irregularities. That was close. The Lord of Iron City has reached the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm in cultivation and he’s very vigilant. I must proceed with caution from now on. It’s quite a huge forge. Speed ​​up the forging process. Don’t hinder His Highness’s revival plan. His Highness? It’s Lu Ya. Such a massive scale of weapon forging is obviously to prepare demon troops for a counter-attack against the Heavenly Court. Lu Ya’s presence has posed a serious threat to the Heavenly Court. His attempt to assassinate the Jade Emperor’s incarnation is a clear act of intimidation and defiance. No wonder the Jade Emperor issued a secret decree to eliminate him. The Golden Lotus emits ominous energy, indicating that this treasure is about to be seized. And the future of you will undoubtedly be changed because of this, Your Highness. So I shall preemptively eliminate this possibility and seize the treasure first . The Demon Court’s assets are remarkably substantial. Papercutting technique? We are both disciples of Taoism. Why are you tailing me? It turns out that you’ve already found out, Senior. I was hoping to follow you to find some treasures. You ‘re also here to look for that valuable treasure, aren’t you? Give it up. I’m sure I’ll find it earlier than you. What a speed. As expected of a professional treasure hunter. – Found it. – Found it. Sea God, it turns out it’s you. With the favors accumulated as Sea God, I hope I can peacefully resolve the dispute over the treasure. To be frank, under the guidance of the Human Emperor, I’ve learned that this treasure has deep connections with the Human. I see, my friend. When it comes to treasure hunting, I believe in first come, first served. We must conduct our search without making any noise. That’s what being a professional means, understand? Yes ? , Senior . My apologies. Someone coming! Someone is trying to steal the treasure. [Big Brother] Sea God of the Heavenly Court, I should thank you for your diligent efforts in uncovering this valuable treasure. You’ve saved a lot of trouble for me. Could this be the treasure that might change my future karma? Senior, considering our camaraderie in treasure hunting, let’s… Kill the Sea God and reclaim the treasure. How dare you come to Iron City to steal treasures! You’ re courting death! Sea God, this formation was set up by the prince of the Demon Court. Only a Daluo Golden Immortal or someone with a higher-level cultivation can break through it. Papermen of the Golden Immortal Realm, go! However, the tunnel I have dug can exist beyond heaven and earth, avoiding the Isolation Formation. Hand over the treasure and I will give you a quick death. As we are both disciples of Taoism, I can help you. But I get to keep the treasure. Daluo? Do you want to make a bet on whether I can break the formation? Your cultivation is at most at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm. Forget about breaking the formation. You might not even survive, not to mention breaking the formation. Are you afraid to make a bet? You still have the energy to provoke me, huh? Fine, I’ll make a bet with you. If you can truly break the formation, not only will I not ask for the treasure, but I ‘ll also help you leave the Northern Continent. What do you say? Deal. Lu Ya, you’re reorganizing the remnants of the Demon Court, intending to go against heaven. What? Are you so afraid of the word getting out? The The strength of the Demon Court’s prince is nothing special. You are asking for your demise! Immortal-slashing Flying Blade. Oh no. The treasures. You want to take my strength and use it against me? But it depends on whether you can survive. [Sea God Canonization Commemorative Coins] These are fake . Go after them! Wait. His true form is still in the city. A treasure-seeking mouse? They are gone. All our weapons and treasures are gone. When did you swap the treasures? When the group of demons rushed into the treasury , I took advantage of the chaos to hide the coins and papermen. Then, you deliberately used fake coins to create a mess, shifting the demons’ attention away from the treasury. Clever lad, you are indeed quite cunning. That’s quite impressive, Senior . You saw through my scheme in an instant. Stop flattering me. Although I don’t really like the Demon Court, emptying their treasury like this is truly despicable. I intended to give these treasures to you as a gesture of gratitude for saving my life. Since you don’t seem to appreciate them, I’ll simply return them. I rarely come out these days and I can’t return empty-handed, can I? Come on, show me the treasures. Stealing weapons from Iron City may reduce the threat of the Demon Court to the Heavenly Court to some extent, but Lu Ya has been lurking for many years and has likely gathered considerable Demon Court forces. Iron City may just be the tip of the iceberg for him. Fortunately, I’ve already obtained the Treasure-dropping Copper Coins. Now, I must eliminate Lu Ya as soon as possible. Even if I’ve missed out on the treasure, Xifang Taoism still wants to cooperate with me? If we can revive the Demon Court, your karma can be rectified. However, the premise for all of this is to make the Tao of Heaven believe that the Demon Court is more capable of controlling the primordial world than the Heavenly Court. Xifang Taoism will then assist you in conquering the Four Seas, ruling over the Six Paths, and subjugating the Human, thereby reshaping the primordial world. Why is Xifang Taoism embarking on this plan against heaven? Our sect has a grand plan called Westward Journey. And the Sects of Taoism are the biggest hindrance to this plan. The fate of the Dragons is at stake. So please help me, Changshou. Changgeng, what’s your plan? Given the time constraints, I’ve only prepared ninety-eight contingency plans. You truly are a cunning one. You should call me prudent. Changgeng, what do you need us to do? There’s danger! Hurry! I, Haotian, as the Jade Emperor, shall protect all living beings. [Episode 40] Your Majesty. Recently, while tracking the whereabouts of Lu Ya, the remnant of the Demon Court, I accidentally discovered a stronghold of the Demon in Iron City. It turns out that over the years, Lu Ya has been secretly forging weapons and organizing demon soldiers in an attempt to restore the Demon Court . stronghold is heavily guarded. With the assistance of Taoist Duobao from Jie Taoism, I have confiscated all the weapons within the stronghold. A detailed inventory is included in the memorial. Please take a look at it, Your Majesty. Lu Ya has been plotting for a long time. He will not reconcile himself to accepting the failure in Iron City. Changgeng, you must proceed with caution in your future endeavors. Yes, Your Majesty. Our sect has a grand plan called “Journey to the West.” Not long ago , our two masters foresaw that there was an opportunity within the West Sea Dragon Palace. The third prince of the West Sea is one of the key figures in the Journey to the West plan. Is this the real reason why you’ve repeatedly targeted the Dragons? Yes and no. Currently, the Dragons intend to join the Heavenly Court, which is quite unfavorable for our sect. I believe you don’t want that to happen either, Your Highness. Right? Why not consider collaborating with us. Xifang Taoism is indeed quite thoughtful, even considering the matters of the Dragons for me. So, are you also planning to be in charge of the Demon under my command? Your Highness, you worry too much. Our sect will certainly not interfere in the internal affairs of the Demon Court. Jingchan, you were the one who wanted to open the Eye of the East Sea, right? Different times call for different actions. If you join forces with our sect, we can discuss affairs concerning the Dragons. The matters of the Dragon are not for Xifang Taoism to interfere with. I will soon negotiate with the Dragons myself. If you wish to collaborate, give me something of value. Did Jingchan go to see Lu Ya? Yes. Got it. After you go back, continue to keep an eye on Jingchan. This is the silk from the Dicoria Three-headed Spider, which can help you monitor his movements. Thank you, Sea God. I was wondering why Lu Ya appeared precisely at the time when I was obtaining the Treasure -dropping Copper Coins. Guess it was most likely because of Jingchan. They’ve probably already struck a deal. To eliminate Lu Ya, we must first find him. But he’s always been elusive and no one can track him down. So the key lies in what Lu Ya plans to do next and what will be their first thing to do after collaborating with each other. Your Highness, you are brilliant. Claiming sovereignty over the Dragons to pressure Xifang Taoism will give us more advantages in our follow-up collaboration with Xifang Taoism. Our Demon Court and Xifang Taoism have common enemies. Our collaboration is inevitable. However, it doesn’t mean we’ll be manipulated by them. But Jingchan did remind me that the Dragons are indeed of paramount importance. Even if I can’t control them, they must not join the Heavenly Court. Elder, in my name, secretly arrange a meeting with the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas. It’s the Dragons. Xifang Taoism has previously obstructed the Dragons’ ascension multiple times . This is obviously their top priority at the moment. Considering the Dragons’ previous allegiance to the Demon Court, once Lu Ya makes an appearance, he’s likely to enlist their support in the first place. More importantly, considering Xifang Taoism’s past conflicts with the dragons, if they now intend to reconcile with them, leveraging Lu Ya’s influence would be opportune. Sect Leader, you’ve missed them. Father and the uncles from the other Three Seas left a few hours ago. Where did they go? I’ m not sure. They were quite secretive about this trip. I think they only set out after receiving some kind of message. I’ve arrived a bit too late. The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas probably got Lu Ya’s message and headed off to the meeting. But where’s the meeting place? In this vast expanse of the primordial world, where am I supposed to find them? Should you uncles decide to help the Demon Court rise again, I’ll do my best to ensure that the Dragons don ‘t have to sacrifice lives for generations to fill the Eye of the Sea when I resort to the Demon Court. What do you say? Well… This Demonic Pear comes from the Demon Court. I hope you won’t forget the favors bestowed by the Demon Court in the past. Sir, the conditions offered by Prince Lu Ya are very tempting. Are we really going to cooperate with him? But it’s also very risky. If the restoration of the Demon Court fails, the Heavenly Court will likely hold the Dragons accountable. Chancellor Turtle, spread the news of Lu Ya’s meeting with us as soon as possible. You mean…? Right now is the crucial moment for the Dragons’ ascension. The Demon Court’s Lu Ya has already stated his price. I’m curious to see what conditions the Heavenly Court’s Jade Emperor will offer. [World Gossip News. This is Unbelievable!] [Dragon Kings of the Four Seas and Lu Ya had a meeting and ate the Demonic Pear?] [Seemingly, they are in alignment with the Demon Court.] Evil Lu Ya. Ungrateful Dragons. Lu Ya wanted to recruit them and they just collaborated with him? I bestowed sixteen god positions yet not a single one of those Dragon Kings came to attend Sea God’s investiture. Instead, they are now colluding with Lu Ya. They really don’t take the Heavenly Court seriously. Your Majesty, please remain calm. I received a tip from a source that Lu Ya had met with Jingchan from Xifang Taoism. They’ve probably collaborated with each other by now. This meeting is likely part of their shared scheme. If you knew about this beforehand, why didn’t you inform me? You are done for. You are suspected by the Jade Emperor. I wasn’t informed beforehand. It was just speculation based on information from informants. Without concrete evidence, I decided to search for proof before reporting to you. Your Majesty, now that news of the Dragons’ negotiation with Lu Ya is widespread, there must be someone adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes. Indeed. If it’s the Dragons’ doing, their aim must be to leverage the opportunity to raise their own value and get more benefits from the Heavenly Court. If it’s Lu Ya, then it’s to use this to exert pressure on the Dragons. Since the Demon Court has gifted the Dragons with the Demonic Pear, should our Heavenly Court also take our stand? That’s right. Changgeng, convey my decree . The Peach Banquet will soon be hosted at the Heavenly Court’s Jade Lake. The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas are invited to attend. Changgeng, you’ll be the one to organize this Peach Banquet. Yes, Your Majesty. If the Dragons willingly submit to the Heavenly Court, I will not eliminate them. However, if they remain defiant and ignorant of the Mandate of Heaven, I will personally go to the Zixiao Palace to ask the Taoist Ancestors to send down the punishment of immortality and hold the Dragons accountable. [Big Brother] So this is why His Majesty holds the Peach Banquet. Father didn’t think it through. How could he meet with Lu Ya? Sect Leader, His Majesty will undoubtedly suspect the Dragons of colluding with the Demon Court and aiming to overthrow them to seize power. The Dragon is now on the edge of a cliff. One wrong step and we may be shattered to pieces at the Peach Banquet. Sect Leader, please help the Dragons. I have a plan. It’s a psychological struggle. We’ll apply immense pressure to frighten the Dragons by surrounding the sea. Sea God, this is Bian Zhuang, the Deputy Commander of the Celestial River Army appointed by His Majesty. From now on, he will be under your command . your service, Sea God. I, Bian Zhuang, am willing to assist in the pursuit of the immortal maidens. No, I mean to assist you the best I can. Why does he seem a little abnormal? It doesn’t matter. Please lead 100,000 soldiers of the Celestial River Army to the Four Seas for training to promote the power of the Heavenly Court. – Cheer up! – Cheer up! Work harder! The Heavenly Court first ordered to hold the Peach Banquet. Then they ordered the Celestial River Army to train outside the Dragon Palace. They’re tempering justice with mercy. I intentionally spread the news of the meeting between the Dragon and Lu Ya and of us eating the Demonic Pear together. The Heavenly Court then ordered to hold the Peach Banquet right away . Now it’s time to raise the price. Chancellor Turtle, release the second piece of information. Yes, sir. [World Gossip News] [Can you believe this? The Demon court will help the Dragon] [give up guarding the Eye of the Sea?] Changgeng, what’s your plan? Please allow me to express my opinion. This is the water management map gifted by Human Emperor Yu the Great. It details the rivers, lakes, and marshes of the Nanshanbu Continent. We could assign the god positions of these places to the Dragons. Once the Dragons are granted these god positions, they can cleanse their sin and be relieved of their duty to guard the Eye of the Sea. So, water affairs in the Nanshanbu Continent are included in the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court. It can also make up for the vacancy of the Heavenly Court’s god position. But these positions are still not enough for the Dragons. Your Majesty, I have heard that there’s a tradition of rotation of god positions in the Heavenly Court. If I set the rotation of the Dragon positions at 1,000 years, I will be able to appoint more Dragon Gods. One day, the Dragons will no longer need to guard the Eye of the Sea. The Demon Court has issued a blank check while the Heavenly Court has promised to pay in installments. The seal is already on this decree. If you write the decree on it, it will be finalized immediately. Take this blank decree to the Dragons immediately. Your Majesty, if you give out a blank decree now, what if the Dragon raises the price at the Peach Banquet, or what if there is a change in the Demon Court? Indeed, you are thoughtful. Well, you bring this map to the Dragons. Tell them that all the rivers, lakes , and marshes on it can be assigned with god positions. Yes, Your Majesty. Finally, I’ve succeeded in guiding the Jade Emperor to assign the god positions. Not only does the Heavenly Court have a hold card, but the Dragons will be able to get more god positions. We’ll be able to face the Demon Court with greater confidence. This should dispel the Jade Emperor’s suspicions, right? Changgeng. Would you like to take a disciple? Long Ji, come in. [Long Ji , Heavenly Court] Greetings, Father. Greetings, Sea God. Long Ji! [Long Ji, God of Marriage] Isn’t she the God of Marriage who was on the Name List after her death? Isn’t she the daughter of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother? Yet she’s going to be my disciple? Wait a minute. Could she be the supervisor sent by the Jade Emperor? The Jade Emperor hasn’t dispelled his suspicions about me at all. Thank you, Your Majesty. I’ll shamelessly take this mission then. From now on, I will follow you. Whenever you go out to do anything, remember to take me. You’re indeed the supervisor. I must be more prudent from now on to avoid the Jade Emperor’s suspicion. No matter how many rivers, lakes, and marshes there are in the Nanshanbu Continent, the Dragons can get all the god positions there, and they can be rotated? The sea is wide enough for a god position of Sea God. Well , it sounds weird. I’ll name this river the Qianlong River and we can get a god position of River God for it. This looks like a stream, isn’t it? What a deep abyss! We can get another god position of River God for this place. That’s a village’s well, Sir. The Dragons are swaying between the Demon Court and the Heavenly Court. They used my offer to inflate their own price. Don’t be angry, Your Highness. If the Dragons are ungrateful, don’t blame us for being unrighteous. That’s true. After all, back then, I already knew the biggest secret of the Dragons. Once I break the Ten-Thousand -Dragon Array outside the Eye of the Sea… and lose their memories, they will still retain
a faint trace of emotions. Could it be
that these lingering emotions were sensed by Houtu? Correct. The Seven Emotions of living beings: Happiness, Anger, Sadness, Fear, Love, Hatred, and Desire. Over time, Houtu’s sense
of the Seven Emotions overflowed, causing an incarnation
to emerge from the Reincarnation Disk. [Sadness of the Seven Emotions]
She embodies the Sadness of the Seven Emotions. This is like a split personality, and each personality can even
transmit its emotions to others. Afterward, incarnations
of Desire and Hatred appeared as well. To maintain the stability
of the Reincarnation Disk, Houtu had no choice but to seal them. It must have been the Great Houtu
who suppressed them this time. But if they’ve already been sealed, how did
the Anger of the Seven Emotions emerge? As souls continue to reincarnate, the sense of the Seven Emotions
will only grow stronger. The seal won’t hold forever. If all the Seven Emotions manifest,
what then? Wipe them all out. Master, do the incarnations
of Houtu’s Seven Emotions really not deserve to exist? You have heard
the voices of the Witch, so you should understand. Only this can eliminate
the bias of favoritism and make reincarnation more just. Goddess Houtu
is a great and benevolent witch! Quiet. This time, I want to see
how Water God will handle this. But Goddess Houtu will become
a mere tool of the Tao of Heaven. It is the most effective way
to guard a smooth reincarnation. But you are different from us. Maybe you can help her. If you can find a way
to help Houtu through this crisis, the Tao of Heaven
will bestow you with great merit. Is this a hint that the Taoist Ancestor
permits me to assist Houtu? To be safe,
I should involve the Great Mage in this. Then, I’ll also gather
more Taoist experts. Experts with strong abilities. Experts with firm Taoist hearts. Experts not swayed
by the Seven Emotions. And… That’s it. The Great Houtu once sealed
the incarnations of the Seven Emotions. The only option now
is to enter the Reincarnation Disk and ask her about the sealing method. Don’t worry, leave it to us. Duobao, you seem to have forgotten. It’s not just Jie Taoism that’s here. I thought the cooperation
at Ling Mountain last time would ease the tension
between Chan Taoism and Jie Taoism. But not. The incarnations will surely
obstruct us from protecting themselves. When the time comes,
I hope you all will lend a hand. Taoist Changgeng, the Reincarnation Disk
is a small separate world created by the Great Houtu based on her Dao of Reincarnation. Once your incarnations enter it, they will lose connection
with your true self. Kid, you can’t rely
on your incarnations this time. Sending myself into an unknown,
unfamiliar, and completely closed space is such a safe move. She’s here. Prepare for battle. The Sadness of the Seven Emotions
has appeared. Just one sob nearly destabilized my Taoist heart. Luckily, everyone is tough enough. At the thought of
the Dragon’s tragic past, I just couldn’t hold back my tears. We can’t hold on either. Three more casualties. [Big Brother] Everyone, fall back. Keep your distance from the Sadness. As strong as her emotional influence is, she doesn’t seem to be attacking. Senior, could you please step aside? So we can save the Great Houtu. Heaven and earth are also prisons. As long as she lives,
she will continue to suffer. The sadness is so overwhelming. So what’s the point of saving her? What’s so joyous about treasure hunting? I couldn’t hold it any longer. Me neither. Three more casualties again. Fortunately, Immortal Yunxiao’s
Taoist heart remains steady. If you insist on not moving, we’ll have to carry you away. In the end, it’s only her
that you all care about. Who cares about me? All I have are tears. [Stability] Senior, you and the Great Houtu
are essentially one. Saving her is also saving you. Forgive me for the offense. No! Why treat me this way? I don’t want it. You said you wanted to save me, but you trapped me. What a miserable world. Eat well and drink well, and then wait quietly for the end. Immortal Yunxiao’s Taoist heart
is indeed firm. Immortal, I’ve been working hard lately.
And my shoulders and neck are sore. Can you give me a massage? What am I saying? What is going on here? I’ve told you
that sobbing won’t solve anything. But then again, desire is hard to suppress. Only by trying
can you understand despair. Desire of the Seven Emotions. [Houtu, Desire of the Seven Emotions]
But ordinary people indeed can’t resist desire. However, the one beside me
is the senior of the Taoist Sect. Well, Changgeng, I’ll leave the rest to you. Beautiful dreams and peaceful sleep
shouldn’t be missed. Don’t sleep!
Get up and fight, Great Mage! Is sleep your only desire? Don’t you have any higher aspirations? I’m curious about your deepest desire. What’s wrong with you today, kid? Why aren’t you dodging? Master already knew
about your situation and personally acted
to cover it up for you. So I persuaded him
to accept you into the Tushita Palace. Taoist Hesperus, how carefree of you. You lie down during our conversation. Found it. Let me see your true face. [Stability] You’re a little boy
who is hundreds of years old, yet you want not power, spells,
capabilities, or anything else but stability. Senior, you’ve seen my desires, why don’t you move over
and let me meet the Great Houtu? Don’t worry, we’ll take care
of the Seven Emotions Incarnations. Be careful. As expected, once the spirit souls
enter the Reincarnation Disk. they will be led
to the gates of the six realms, while the soul will go
to Houtu’s Sea of Spiritual Sense. You’re here. That must be the power
of the Seven Emotions in this world. [Houtu, Ancient Witch] Senior, you knew I would be here. This is Human Taoism’s promise to me. Now that the Seven Emotions
have broken free from their seal, everything is coming to pass. Senior, what should I do to help you suppress the Incarnations? This item was born from Buzhou Mountain. As one of the Original Spiritual Roots, it can be used to seal the Incarnations. This is the gourd vine, the top
of the Ten Original Spiritual Roots. It’s said
that this vine bore seven gourds, each of which
became a primordial treasure and the personal item of the sages, among them is the Purple-Gold Gourd
used to capture Sun Wukong. Previously, the spirit vine
suddenly withered for unknown reasons, causing the Incarnations
to break free from their seal. This happened right
when the Jade Emperor was reincarnating. I have poured all my primordial spirit
into restoring it, Hope it can help you seal them. I will not fail you. But the Incarnations are so formidable, how should I deal with them? Later you can enter my primordial spirit
to check it out. You should try to balance the power
of the Incarnations there and restrain them with the Spirit Vine. I’m sure you can’t hide the fact
that you’ve entered my spirit from them. You must be careful. I understood. If you can’t seal them, the Reincarnation Disk will be damaged, and the dead will never rest in peace. I’ll leave everything to you. [Episode 52] Xuandu, keep snoozing, and your junior brothers
and sisters will be gone. What’s all the noise? What’s going on here? Changshou? Guys, this is where Great Houtu’s
primordial spirit resides. Following Great Houtu’s guidance, we need to balance the power
of the Seven Emotions to seal them completely. And you are? I’m Immortal Yuding, from Chan Taoism. Senior Guang Chengzi asked me
to lend a hand. Immortal Yuding? The very master
of Yang Erlang who split the mountain? Guang Chengzi really pulled
in a heavy hitter. Nice. Hatred is the strongest
among the Seven Emotions, followed by Sadness, Desire, and Anger. Fear comes next, with Love and Joy last. Our task is to split up to weaken Hatred, Sadness, and Desire, maintain Anger and Fear as they are,
and boost Love and Joy. When the seven beads
on this spiritual vine all light up, it means the Seven Emotions
have been successfully sealed. Guys, this will count on all of you. The universe turns,
and fate is not ours to command. Can those who pursue immortality
ever truly escape their destiny? We cultivators are like grains of sand
in the wind, ephemeral and fleeting. Only by embracing a resilient spirit
and understanding the universal laws can we rise above it all. Let’s start it here. Why destroy a heart already in pieces? You revel in your happiness,
while I drown in my grief. Can’t you laugh somewhere else? [Joy and Love] How do we tackle Joy and Love? That’s simple. Snag them and give them
a whopping good beating. Look over there. Ladies, did you come looking for us? [Joy of the Seven Emotions
Love of the Seven Emotions] Are you twins just like us? Come on, let’s play together. I’m genuinely thrilled.
This is tougher than I thought. Yeah, what did we come here for again? This isn’t good. The Incarnation of Joy isn’t
as weak as we thought. Is mutual understanding truly necessary? Does anyone genuinely want
to understand someone else? Or is it just a show of understanding to get a response? Isn’t that exhausting? You once said, all things stem from beings
perceiving the outside world, and none of it means anything. But who gets to define these meanings? Is it you? Aren’t you real? But my existence needs to be erased. It’s still fake. Can’t I just fade away quietly? It might mean nothing to you, but to those who need your help,
it means a lot. You, who hide here afraid
of hurting others, and her, who bears all suffering
yet seeks to help others, you’re essentially the same soul. Both of you are equally gentle. What can I do to help her? I’m just a wretch consumed
by sadness and despair. Even someone
as emotionally stable as her is feeling the pull
of the Incarnation of Sadness. No wonder Sadness is ranked second
among the Seven Emotions. If this keeps up, we’ll be forever lost
in this storm of sadness, let alone saving Great Houtu. [Anger] It’s coming. Huanglong, we need
to figure out a way to enrage her. Huanglong? This Incarnation is too weak.
Let’s just let her go. [Little tyke]
Picking on a little tyke isn’t fun. Who… Who are you calling a little tyke? Don’t sell yourself short. Confidence begets strength. Take it easy. Trust me. Huanglong is usually the silent type. Never thought he’d be so mean. [Big Brother] Senior, don’t just stand there watching. I don’t care about my dignity anymore. It’s so cute. Given Joy’s strength,
let’s make her tears flow with joy. [Fear] [Fear of the Seven Emotions] Close your eyes. Water God’s right.
This one poses the least challenge. [Desire] What… do you crave? The Incarnation of Desire shifts
in myriad ways. For different cultivators,
she can be strong or weak. She’ll actively
tempt the desires deep within us. Once she makes it, one’s Taoist heart could be led astray. I just happen to carry some artifacts
that calm the Taoist heart. If you’re swayed by the Incarnation
of Desire during a bout, take them out and have a look. You wouldn’t be checking these things before meeting my sister, would you? It’s just for self-defense. Why would I
need to guard against Immortal Yunxiao? Water God does what others can’t.
That’s truly extraordinary. Lucky to have the stuff. Please, pass my test. Just you? Fluid in transformation,
impeccably balanced. You could even block me? Seven emotions split, a mind’s imprint; six desires hint,
all from the heart’s glint. [True Taoism]
This cauldron represents my Taoist heart. Got it. Come on, let’s play a simple game. It might just help you out. This is a piece of my happiness. Now, bring out an equal measure
of your sadness. Tell me, is this joy or sadness? Neither. It’s the chaos of emotions. From chaos comes Yin and Yang. So it’s a fifty-fifty shot
between sadness and joy, right? Seems so. Then suppose you
never lift this black cloth. Can we say that sadness and joy
exist simultaneously? You could say that. So, at this moment, sadness and joy are intertwined. Now, look ahead. What about the next moment,
the next hour, or even farther? Are the emotions there also 50% likely to be sadness, and 50% joy? No, what you’re saying is unreasonable. I won’t even live that long. So, are you saying
it’s definitely sadness here? sadness isn’t the meaning
of your existence. Experiencing the sadness
of living beings is. Thanks to the great scholar Schrödinger
for his theoretical support. Among the Seven Emotions,
Joy, Love, Anger, Fear, and Desire are already stabilizing. Sadness is about to be swayed by me. [Hatred]
Now, all that’s left
is the Great Mage’s part. Changshou, It seems I have my work cut out for me. We need to move quickly. If the Jade Emperor can’t descend
and pass the ordeal, he can’t return as planned. Heavenly Court is in grave danger. [Episode 53] I was wondering where you guys went. Turns out you called for reinforcements. I’ll kill you first, and… Hey, how about we play a little game? Look, this is my piece of benevolence. Now, bring out an equal measure
of your malevolence. Then let them… Who’d like to play games with you? Scoundrel! Now. Give me a bit of your malevolence. I’ll show you a game with some depth. Just a little is enough. Come on, it’s really interesting. Get lost. Now, all that’s missing is Sadness. Maybe I can try to cheer her up to further weaken the power of sadness. [Martial Arts Club] [Artistic Club] The black cloth has fallen. Indeed, It is happiness. Although I know you didn’t do it for me, I can’t help but have thoughts
I shouldn’t. But since it’s all a sham in the end, Why start at all? Why am I so tragic? I am Changgeng, a disciple of Human Taoism
and the Water God. Meeting you and forming this bond
is a profound honor. Together, we’ve achieved this feat,
aiding the Great Houtu It’s a blessing that spans lifetimes,
and an honor I deeply cherish. I… I am the Sadness bestowed
upon Houtu by all living beings. I am Houtu. Just you wait. I’ll beat you every time I see you. Miss. Thanks. Take care. Let me out, you beast! Apologies for the offense. Just you wait. When I get the chance, I’m gonna shave your head bald
and tattoo a turtle on it. The virtue of Houtu is witnessed
by Heaven and Earth. Goddess Houtu, please return
to your rightful place. As the Great Houtu
protects reincarnation, the gratitude of all beings
shall endure eternally. If you fear the resurgence
of the Seven Emotions, I humbly offer the power
of the Universal Marvelous Tower to help control them. Thanks a lot. Years ago, when I became
the Reincarnation Disk, it was out of profound love
for all beings. In establishing the reincarnation rules, I harbored a deep hatred for evil and a reverence for goodness. Severing the Seven Emotions would mean the end of the Reincarnation Disk and the Six Paths. Without emotions, there is no me. I shall shoulder the suffering, grievances, and hatred of all beings. Why should I not also embrace
my own sadness, hatred, desire, happiness,
fear, love, and anger? Please be well from now on. [Big Brother] Without emotions, there is no me? I once believed that as a magic weapon, one should transcend the Seven Emotions
to remain impartial. Yet, Houtu’s boundless compassion has made me waver. Great Houtu,
I have learned much from you. Master, this Water God
is truly formidable. You’re no match for him. I had too many plans,
so some oversight was inevitable. Your shamelessness
is truly impressive, Master. Enough talk. That’s what the Reincarnation Disk saw
before the Emotions went out of control. That’s the Shura’s
Level 12 Karma-Fire Red Lotus Seed. It seems the Shura used it
to taint the Spiritual Vines in an attempt to harm you, Goddess. The Shura has always followed
the orders of Xifang Taoism and Lu Ya. The chaos coincides
with the Jade Emperor’s ordeal, making this likely
another scheme by them. Please rest assured. I will get to the bottom of this matter and won’t let the Six Paths
for Reincarnation suffer in vain. With your guarantee, I am at ease. To protect the Jade Emperor’s soul,
the Queen Mother’s was also affected. There has never been a case of a soul
entering the Reincarnation Disk without following the Path. To be safe, Queen Mother’s soul
must descend with the Jade Emperor’s. Thanks, Goddess. I have another matter to discuss
with Goddess, Judge, and Marshals Wu Niu and Wu Ma. Go ahead, please. With the establishment
of the Heavenly Court, it is the time to recruit the talented. His Majesty had planned
to include the Six Paths. Her Majesty’s descent with his soul was also for this purpose. Now that Her Majesty’s soul
has reincarnated with His Majesty’s, and Princess Longji must remain
in the Heavenly Court, I must consult with you all
on behalf of them. Being incorporated
into the Heavenly Court will secure
the Tao of Heaven’s protection. Ma, what’s your opinion? Judge, any concerns? It’s our honor that the Witches
of the Six Paths are recognized. However… Do you have any concerns? We have no objections. However, a branch of Witch has been suffering
in the Northern Continent since the Great War
of Witches and Demons. I have always been concerned about them. After the Six Paths for Reincarnation
join the Heavenly Court, could you extend aid to them too? Don’t worry. Once His and Her Majesty
assume their positions, I will promptly convey your wish. Much appreciated. With the Six Paths for Reincarnation
incorporated, the Heavenly Court will gain
the significant support of the Witch. We’ve failed again. Dizang and Diting have vanished
into the vast multiverse, speaking of seeking the Great Tao. We can no longer rely on Xifang Taoism. No need for further efforts. The Heavenly Court must remain vigilant. Inform the demon subordinates. Continue monitoring the Water God and do not act rashly. Great Houtu retained you because there was something wrong
with Master Uncle’s ordeal? Thank you all for your concern. Jade Emperor and Queen Mother are fine. Great Houtu, in gratitude, has gifted
a set of Eight-Nine Profound Arts to the Three Sects of Taoism. It is the foremost method
for physical cultivation. Her gesture is appreciated. Immortal Yuding speaks so highly
of the Eight-Nine Profound Arts. and Yang Jian, his future disciple,
also practices it, which indicates a profound connection. I can pass this technique
to Xiong Lingli to aid in her cultivation. Water God, why are you so downcast despite receiving merit? Great Houtu sacrifices herself
for all beings, becoming the Reincarnation Disk, yet continues to endure the suffering
inflicted by all beings. The seemingly perfect Three Realms require the few to bear the pain for the many. It is deeply moving. Maybe that’s why Great Houtu chose us
to balance the Seven Emotions. I have a question for you all. Go ahead. Does the Tao have distinctions of right and wrong, positive and negative, good and evil? The Tao itself has none. But it is practiced by beings who have notions of the distinctions. The Tao is vast and eternal. Yet the motivation and limit
of Tao cultivation vary from individual to individual, leading to diverse paths. Thus, the Tao’s manifestation is ever-changing, according to one’s mind. The Tao remains constant,
but the beings’ interpretations differ. Can there be a Tao that balances these changes, ensuring constancy? Vulgarity transforms with the wind. Open-mindedness sways
with circumstances. A thousand pounds balance on a feather. Light and heavy in balance. Changgeng has achieved enlightenment? His Tao foundation is perfected,
and his heart is pure. Such enlightenment at such a young age promises a boundless future. [Episode 54] [Stability] The lingering Sadness is too strong. All the suppressed sorrow
is flooding back. [Sorrow]
This is overwhelming. Houtu’s situation shows that disasters can’t be avoided
by will alone. Even someone as powerful as Houtu
can’t escape schemes. With so many uncertainties
before the Name List Catastrophe, how can I protect the Taoists and Human? Uncertainty 1:
Nyuwa was extremely protective of Lu Ya. I wanted to change the Catastrophe
by killing Lu Ya. But that plan has been forced to a halt. Uncertainty 2: Another Blue Star native Senior Bold is in the primordial world. He is also aware
of the future of the Catastrophe. Regardless of his stance, he could greatly impact my actions. [Plan: To Strengthen the Heavenly Court] Changshou, have you heard? The Great Mage of Xuandu
gave birth to a child who now is in the Heavenly Court. Be careful how you speak. This is a great joy for Human Taoism. [Taoist News. Anonymous Source.]
A mystery immortal sect insider reveals. [Today’s Top News: Great Mage Has Child]
While the Great Mage
was practicing the Yin-Yang Tao, he sat on the Taiji Diagram, and then… The Art of Stability. 3000 times. I truly did not know of such rumors.
Please forgive me, Great Mage. I live freely,
unaffected by idle gossip. Water God, congratulations
on the Great Mage! Men giving birth is indeed impressive. It’s all rumors. Did you invite me here
for these… little surprises? Of course, no.
I need to discuss something with you. The Heavenly Court is
in urgent need of reliable talents. Perhaps we could recommend
Human Taoism immortals. Master, this is the Longevity Brew
gifted by the Great Mage. It can prolong life
and enhance cultivation. It also has
skincare and beauty benefits. Master, here you are. Reaching the Real Immortal Realm
secures a role in the Heavenly Court. I’ve reached the Real Immortal Realm.
This is my peak moment. For those lacking strength, I’ll turn
the Peaches into brew to gift them. It retains the nutrients
and speeds up cultivation. Juniors, Martial Aunt,
you should try some too. I want more. Take up a post in the Heavenly Court? Master, the Heavenly Court
recently issued a recruitment order, and I took the liberty
of registering you. Today, the Heavenly Court
appoints you as a Mountain Deity. Me? Master, it’s me. Changshou? How come…? Master, in this incarnation,
I am the Junior Mage of Xuandu. If you’re ever in danger,
use this title. Great Mage
is among the most formidable. Isn’t using this title just trying
to gain an unfair advantage? The title was exactly bestowed by him to help me
serve Human Taoism better. Now, I can take care of you and Ling’e. Please forgive my boldness now.
Let’s address each other as Taoists. If our relationship is exposed,
it might cause trouble. Your Highness. I’m in class with the Water God,
so I’m here as his proxy. Taoist Qi Yuan, follow me. You’re truly blessed to be recommended
by the Water God. And you are? Forgot to mention that my father is the Heavenly Sovereign
in the Cloud Palace. My mother is the Chief of Jade Lake. That’s why they address me
as “Your Highness.” Heavenly Sovereign,
Chief of the Jade Lake. So it’s Jade Emperor and Queen Mother’s
daughter pulling strings for me? No, no, it’s not pulling strings. In the words of the Water God,
it’s more like an internal referral. Taoist, you meet the criteria
for the Heavenly Court’s recruitment. Is that so? Recommended by Water God, [Real Immortal Realm]
you must be a talent… [Turbid Immortal] A Turbid Immortal? A talent of high integrity. Thank you. No need to be polite. I am Dong Mugong, a friend of Water God, here to escort you. Dong Mugong, the top male immortal,
is personally escorting me. Won’t it be too obvious for me
to pull strings? Am I going to become a Mountain Deity? [Xiaoqiong Peak]
And my jurisdiction is right here in Duxian Sect. Changshou, are you close
with this Water God? I am the Water God. You’re a key figure
in the Heavenly Court. And you’re Princess Longji’s teacher. Dongmu Gong is your friend. And you’re the Junior Mage of Xuandu. So the Great Mage’s child… No, Master, let me explain. Now, with the Dragon and Witch
under control, the Heavenly Court is on the rise. As long as the Heavenly Court
can expand early, it won’t need to enhance itself
by granting more positions. The Catastrophe can be avoided. The Tao of Heaven has responded.
The divine positions have appeared. Now, the Great Houtu
manages the Six Paths and the Heaven-Earth communication, holding a secondary divine rank. But I must still maintain balance
with the Heavenly Court. I can serve as a vassal, but I cannot be a mere pawn. This disciple of Human Taoism
is truly remarkable. With the Dragon leading
and the Witch following, a new power will likely rise
in the Heavenly Court. [Big Brother] It seems the Great Houtu
has given you much insights. Your Tao is nearing completion. I’m merely at the edge of the Tao. I’m still far from achieving a Tao
like that of the Great Houtu. He has quite a sense of self-awareness. The Great Houtu’s profound love
is truly admirable. Beings like her
born before the Tao of Heaven, innately align with the Tao. They understand mortal emotions
only partially. Seeking the great Tao
requires many years. Without solitary courage, who dares to spend time
cultivating the Seven Emotions? You’re also a primordial being.
I wonder how you found your Tao. At my birth, I was the first wisp
of cloud in the world. When first opening my eyes, I saw
the separation of Heaven and Earth. The chaos and murk slowly faded,
and misty clouds began to rise. The morning light, the breeze,
and the morning dew were all me. All beings are of the same origin,
born from the primordial unity. I believe that’s the Tao I’ve sought
for my entire life. Your smile is truly beautiful. I racked my brains,
hoping to compose some poems. But I found that the poems I know
pale in comparison to your beauty. So all I can do
is complimenting you with this. Why are you saying these things today? Primordial beings are said to be
mostly driven by their Taoist nature. The longer they cultivate, the more
they lose their emotions and desires. On the other hand, beings born later
are governed by human nature. The stronger they become,
the more their desires emerge. Between Taoist nature and human nature,
which do you think is more important? They are interdependent. One must
stay true to their Taoist heart. I am just an ordinary person. Tao is not my true self,
while human nature is my essence. Human nature is, in fact,
the true heart of beings. Without understanding one’s true heart,
how can one find their true self? One must know that true heart
and essence reveal the Tao of creation. That was very enlightening. As expected, if Immortal Yunxiao could
truly sever all emotional attachments, how could she have risked herself
and sought revenge for her brother, ultimately meeting such a tragic end? Quiet. I can still hear some sounds. Immortal, have you thought about this? If we become Taoist partners,
what would that be like? Why bring this up all of a sudden? We are merely acquaintances at present. It is too soon to speak of such matters. If we meet and talk more often, it will naturally happen faster. I would also like to see you more often. Then, how about we meet once every five hundred years? Five hundred years? The Monkey trapped in Five-Finger Mountain
can break out by then. Is this the time perception gap
between primordial and postnatal beings? Please accept
the Treasure-dropping Copper Coin. Our friendship should be
as clear and pure as crystal. Why give me such a treasure? I feel most at ease
if this item is with you. If the Name List Catastrophe
is inevitable, with this item, perhaps it can
help Mr. Gongming avert disaster, and reduce the karmic causes
for her entering the calamity. I understand your silence, I won’t pry. I give this to you. Now that enemies are lurking,
may this cloud protect you. This… In exchange for your tress,
our karmic scales align. So, Immortal, we shall meet again
in five hundred years. What did Yunxiao give him? Are we going to get a brother-in-law? No wonder that guy calls me Senior
but Yunxiao Immortal. Let me see what he is plotting. Prying like this, don’t you fear
being disciplined by Immortal Yunxiao? She should still be
in the Attraction Realm. What is the Attraction Realm? It’s one of the stages of cultivating
as a Taoist couple, including the Attraction, the Heartbeat, the Blossoming, the Passionate,
and the Affinity Realms. To risk everything for each other,
regardless of costs, is what defines a Taoist partner. To be admired by Yunxiao
is quite an achievement. To make a primordial being
to risk it all is no easy task. Water God has his work cut out for him. Let it be. Let’s see how things unfold. [Episode 55] What’s wrong with Changshou? Do I have to carry all this? Cultivation outside the mountain
should be burden-free. Is it that dangerous out there? Isn’t the sky still the same? Master, Changshou, I’m heading out on an adventure. [A few months ago] I want to experience
and ascend to immortality. So suddenly? Changshou, Master has taken office
in the Heavenly Court. I wish to join him there. My cultivation progress
has stalled these years. I just can’t break through. Master says it’s because I’ve grown too accustomed
to the comfort of Xiaoqiong Peak. Master’s right. Only by tempering your will
in dangerous situations can you strengthen your Taoist heart. The right to survive isn’t something
Humans are born with. What we have today was fought for
by our ancestors with their lives. You’ll understand
once you leave the mountain. So, Changshou, you’re letting me go? I’ll give you three tasks. You have three years to complete them. Afterward, you should be able to break through. Should I follow and protect Ling’e in secret? Master, Ling’e isn’t anyone’s appendage, nor is she just a decoration
of Xiaoqiong Peak. She needs to understand that the world is much bigger
than what she sees now and that there are many paths in life. Only then can she carve out her Tao. The blue sky and white clouds
remain unchanged. The mountains stand tall,
much like our sect’s peaks. But now, they seem so majestic. So, this is the world outside. It’s beautiful. Help! Cease your struggle. Escape is futile. Hand over the treasure. Isn’t this what Changshou taught me? It’s way too obvious. What an insult to my intelligence. Thanks for saving me. Please help me escape,
and I’ll be at your service. A hidden challenge? Moral Coercion. No need. If you still can’t get away from this, I suspect that you want to set me up. Farewell. This went pretty well, not perfect, but decent. Changshou should feel reassured seeing how smoothly I handled things. Now that I’m finally out, I should buy something
for Master and Changshou. But I’m low on spirit stones,
so I’ll have to budget. Miss, even if you were upset
and stormed off, you couldn’t leave without money. Our brother asked me
to send this to you. Giving me spirit stones in public? Such an abrupt and direct way… doesn’t seem like
what Changshou would arrange. Miss, I think you’ve mistaken me
for someone else. I have an older brother, but no sisters. Her caution suggests spirit stones
won’t be persuasive. Are you still mad? [Stability]
Why did Ao Yi just let this slide? Fine, it’s my fault for not giving her enough spirit stones. My family’s poor, so what’s your real motive
for getting close to me? [Stability]
Just a word doesn’t explain everything. Changshou always uses papermen
when he’s out, but she lacks their characteristic aura. [Suspicious] More importantly, Changshou has spent
all the allowance on medicine. How could there be any savings? Changshou, I had no idea
you were living in such poverty. Not really. I have a lot of side jobs, after all. Taoist Ling’e, Changshou specifically asked me
to catch up to you. Aside from delivering spirit stones, he wanted to test your vigilance. Ao Yi, is it just spirit stones
you’ve come to offer? Wait, there’s usually more
to Changshou’s moves. Something’s off. No plans, truly. There must be a trick. Thanks, but I have spirit stones. Changshou insisted I give them to you.
Please accept them. I still have tasks to complete. Bye. You kept your stability indeed, but you’re overthinking it. Ling’e. Changshou? I forgot to give you
enough spirit stones, which is why… I don’t believe you.
How can you prove you’re Changshou? You once set a record
by bathing 12 times in a single day. At 13, you got snake-bit
and cried for six hours straight. At 17… Changshou! I’ve been watching your progress this whole time. [Challenge passed]
You can handle the training tasks. This time,
I won’t arrange anything special, nor will I intervene. The path ahead is for you to walk, to see, and to experience. When feeling restless,
you can study the Art of Stability. Only then will you find your Tao. [Big Brother] Head to the Southern Continent’s border
and slay 100 Real Immortal Realm beasts. Real Immortal Realm? [Real Immortal Realm]
That’s like Aunt Jiu Jiu’s level. I can’t even beat one
in a head-on fight. 100 of them? Changshou, are you serious? This is the Southern Continent’s border. The right to survive wasn’t something
Humans are born with. What we have today was fought for
by our ancestors with their lives. As a Human cultivator, I have to do my part
to protect the Humans here. Half a year has passed. Most of the nearby beasts
have been scared off and won’t return anytime soon. I’ve left the healing prescriptions
and spirit stones to the village chief. The training task is complete. Time to leave. Ling’e, come to my place
for dinner tonight. Thanks, but I still need
to prepare herbs for tomorrow. Take care of yourself.
Don’t push yourself too hard. If only we could learn
some immortal techniques. Maybe we wouldn’t have lost
so many brothers. When I’m older, I’ll learn cultivation
in an immortal sect. Then I’ll protect our village. Why don’t you abandon the village
and retreat to the city walls? If we flee, the beasts will pursue us. More people would die, and even more beasts would come. We won’t escape them by just running. Our town has a rule passed down
by our ancestors: Even if we’re devoured by beasts, we must never surrender our land. Humans started from nothing and faced countless dangers
and cruelty from all sides. But it’s the unyielding spirit
and will to grow stronger that allowed Humans to endure
through the generations. My Taoist heart feels
a bit more complete now. The catastrophe is coming
sooner than expected. Ling’e’s catastrophe comes. Army of papermen, go protect Ling’e! Changshou? I’ve set up 12 micro formations
to guard against sneak attacks. Everything needed to weather
the catastrophe has been prepared. Our last resort
is the Nine-turn Golden Pill. I brought two Nine-turn Golden Pills
from Master. Keep them with you. If things get dire, take one.
It’s your life-saver. No need to be overly tense. Your foundation is solid, and you have a 98% chance of success
in passing the catastrophe. Changshou… Changshou, you alright? W-Why… Well, there’s no avoiding
this lightning strike. My experiences, under the approval
of the Tao of Heaven, guide my efforts to support Ling’e
in mastering the Taiqing Alchemy Path. Why am I getting struck?
Why am I being punished? How could… Wait a second… [Stability]
The Art of Stability! Who’d have thought that making her copy
the Art of Stability so often would pave the way to the Tao of Heaven? I guess I have to accept this. Lord of Heaven, thanks for lecturing me. I willingly accept my punishment. Heavenly punishment?
Why would Xiaoqiong Peak suffer this? Changshou, I can’t come up
with an excuse to save you. Changshou? It’s the sixth-ranked
Nine Heavens Pure Spirit Catastrophe. Anyone who overcomes it is destined for immortality
in the future. Wait, will I face nine punishments
if she endures nine lightning strikes? No worries. Focus on my catastrophe. [Art of Stability] The Tao revolves,
and the universe is in balance. Catastrophe is both fate
and opportunity. I’m ready. Bring it on! [Art of Stability] [Next Episode] Those tied to the catastrophe
have begun to appear. I’m afraid… His first appearance was during
the Great War of Witches and Demons when there was a beast causing trouble. Slay it on the spot. Could it be…? I will kill every one of you and sever all karmic ties. You still need to transcribe
the Art of Stability more. I did it! Changshou said the Tao unfolds
naturally, not driven by spirit or will. True understanding comes from the heart,
not from heaven or earth. Righteousness is the core. But I wonder what my Tao is. [Art of Stability] Ling’e has ascended
by mastering the Art of Stability. Her catastrophe left me in agony. Little one, I’ve helped you
through the heavenly punishment. Mr. Diagram and I need to go back now. Sage Taiqing must have missed us after all this time. Nonsense. Sage Taiqing pays you no mind. Thank you, seniors. Let’s go! Master has been appointed
as the Mountain Deity. Ling’e has ascended to immortality
and can continue her trials by herself. Fortunately, Sect Master covered me
for the heavenly punishment. Time to find the Jade Emperor
and Queen Mother’s rebirths. Sir, you slept in today.
We’ve been waiting for you. Please enjoy the tea.
It’s a fresh premium batch. It’s been a while since your last visit. I was out late at the theater last night
and lost some money. Now, I feel sore all over. Sir, let me give you a massage. Are you tickling me? Harder. Yes, sir. Not enough. Much harder. You’re useless. Press harder. Harder! Sir? It’s… It’s too much. After the Human Emperor returned
to Huoyun Cave, many powerful mortal nations emerged
in the Southern Continent. Youqin Kingdom is among the strongest and a major source of offerings for us. Recently, Quezhou City in Youqin Kingdom
was attacked, and Sect Master bade me
to lead the disciples to quell the chaos. There’s a beast causing trouble? Evil thing. Slay it on the spot. Understood. Cyan, yellow, red, black, and white. Could that be
the Five-Colored Divine Light? [Kong Xuan, Phoenix] A man? But he exudes neither a masculine vibe nor a gentle femininity. Yin and Yang harmonize in him. Upon his arrival,
his teleportation mastery revealed exceptional cultivation. How many people has he killed? What do you mean? I’ll sever the karmic ties. Either I kill all of you, or you tell me how many he has killed. I’ll save that number of humans, and we’ll be even. Quiet. He’s beyond us. Come out! The one underground. He intercepted my telepathy. [Big Brother] Kong Xuan, the first peacock,
carries the primal phoenix bloodline. He first appeared in the Great War
of Witches and Demons. Sect records state the divine peacock
is from the south. He devoured humans and demons for fun, which later invoked heavenly punishment. He was defeated by the Great Mage
and sent back south. I don’t know why Kong Xuan got involved
in the Name List Catastrophe. Yet under his Five-Colored Divine Light, Yang Jian and Nezha are outmatched. He defeated Randeng and Lu Ya and forced out their Dharma-laksana. He rivals the Three Sects’ top senior. Great Mage of Xuandu? I have a plan. Junior Mage of Xuandu? Wasn’t that telepathy from Changshou? With a strong presence,
we must tread carefully. If I’m right, he’s one
of the few great beings in existence. I’m Junior Mage of Xuandu.
They are disciples of Human Taoism. I beg your mercy. How are you related to the Great Mage? We are of the same sect. What proof do you have? [Junior Mage of Xuandu] Is he doing well? You’re right. I am Kong Xuan. Days ago, my nephew lost control
as his blood went berserk. I just woke from seclusion
and found my way here. He must have consumed some humans. How many humans are there? I’ll save the equal number of people
before we talk further. Killing is separate from saving. I once devoured 100,000 humans. So what? Later, when demons aimed to exterminate
humans to refine the Witch’s Blade, I saved a million and eased my guilt. Karmic debts can be offset.
Why not killing and saving? Did you kill and save the same person? Fate is clear. Gains can offset losses. As for those who you consumed… Xuanya, stop talking. The demon has wreaked havoc
in the mortal realm, devouring dozens. They were captured by demons days ago. Now, I repay you tenfold. Xuanya, are you a match for Kong Xuan? No. Neither am I, so just bear with him. You are quite clever. By the way, has Great Mage mentioned me? If I tell him the truth, will I irritate this mysterious figure? I haven’t spent much time with him. But he did mention you a few times. What did he say about me? Are you male or female? If I can’t figure that out, things might get very complicated. Senior, since it involves the reputation
of the Great Mage, forgive my curiosity. May I know how to spell your name? Why not just ask if I’m male or female? I just thought you were straightforward. I still haven’t decided about my gender. If he hadn’t avoided me back then, I might have already made a choice. Unbelievable! This is the Phoenixes’ fault. This is a communication jade. I’m ready to repay the favor anytime. As those concerning the catastrophe
showed up, I guess it is imminent. It should work this time. Next, I’ll keep seeking the rebirths
of Jade Emperor and Queen Mother. Where’s the young master? Here I am. Hurry, save him! Hua Youming, you’re the son
of the general of Quezhou City. [Xia Ningshuang, from Quezhou City] How did a peacock demon
land you in a mess? Xia Ningshuang,
I was injured in the battle. You, the city lord’s daughter,
hid away and still dare to criticize me? Your Highness, the anomaly occurred
in Youqin Kingdom. Haotian, you won’t return this time. Congratulations, My Lord. [Youming] You worthless guy. That’s all for today. Don’t wear yourself out. See you tomorrow. Yes, Young Master. Mr. Hua, when will you bring Yingying
back to the manor? If I need to take her home just because I listen to her song. Should I take over this teahouse as well if I have a few more cups of tea? Well… Mr. Hua,
don’t take it seriously, I just… Have you heard? A mighty immortal has come
to Quezhou City. I know, I’ve heard that this immortal
has already attained enlightenment. When he advises the youth,
a golden light appears behind his head. He can even help gamblers
turn over a new leaf. He even sat in front of the brothel
and lectured for two days. After he finished,
the brothel collapsed. The owner was so moved
that the girls are allowed to be free. Not just that! Wherever this immortal went, dead fish come back to life,
and dry wells sprang water. The immortal sat on the ground
and flowers bloomed. With a wave of his hand, flocks of birds
come swirling in from the sky. He also visited
the most famous academy in Quezhou City. A debate there left
several old scholars calling him Master. But he didn’t seek fame,
instead he departed quietly. If only one could become his disciple… Coincidentally, the immortal said
he has a connection to Quezhou City. He plans to settle here
and start accepting disciples. The immortal also mentioned that he doesn’t charge tuition
or accept gifts. But there’s one rule: he only accepts
intelligent and perceptive disciples. So impressive! Only accepts intelligent
and perceptive disciples. Doesn’t that mean it’s me? Life is brief and the world is vast. My heart yearns, but my legs falter. The city is blessed with talented people
and beautiful scenery. I wish to stay here for three years to teach several disciples.
Then keep traveling to the boundaries of the world. Immortal teachings depend on fate. My energy is also limited. The first twenty persons enrolled
can attend my lectures. Their class performance will decide
if they stay. What’s the rush? If anyone tries to leverage family ties for a spot, I’ll confront them on sight. Go, get to the back. Are you going to beat me, Ming? I won’t stoop to your level. Born into wealth yet illiterate. What can those people possibly learn? They might as well give up their spot to those who have truly learned. That way, more talents can be cultivated
for this city. A moment of ignorance
doesn’t mean a lifetime of it. A moment of misfortune doesn’t mean
a life without great achievements. Your rebellion will earn you
a punishment from General Hua. I have nothing to fear. [A few hours ago]
Master, something’s wrong! So many fateful connections! Why did Jade Emperor’s reincarnation
get so many bad romances? But Jade Emperor’s trials
are determined by the Tao of Heaven. I can’t recklessly interfere
with the Jade Emperor’s romantic life. [Go] What can I do? Am I supposed to go work
as a servant at Hua’s residence? A paperman discovered that Hua Youming
wanted to learn the immortal technique. So I’ll study Blue Star’s
influencer marketing strategy. [Join immortals and live eternally.]
To gain fame [Easy immortality: follow the steps.]
and win all followers. [Effortless cultivation:
Master’s secret manual!] Then spread the news
that he is accepting disciples. This will draw many students
like Hua Youming and Xia Ningshuang. What a debate
about the wealthy and the poor! May I ask how you are addressed, sir? Hua Youming. My father is the general guardian
of this city, and I will be too. Young General. Whether humble or noble, one’s worth lies in character
and service to the community. Come with me. Selecting the top twenty to attend, and seven or eight among them to teach, is because rarity makes it valuable. Hunger marketing
reveals my immortal mystique. [Big Brother] I will only teach you for three years. Your gains in these three years
are up to you. I’ll teach whatever you wish to learn. But what I teach, you must learn. Do you understand? Then I’ll learn the world’s
most powerful immortal technique. I will teach you the immortal technique, but just basic techniques
to defeat foes, like Rope Manipulation Technique. Rope manipulation?
It sounds like a way to fool people. You fool, get up! Xia Ningshuang is quite attractive. No, that’s not right. She would splash water
into my bed when I took a snap. She pushed me into a mud pit
when I caught crickets. She kicked me into the pond
when I walked. How could I think she is attractive? What did you say? I said you are quite attractive. Don’t get me wrong. I meant those hairs in your nostrils. Hua Youming! Mind your own path. Once a sage is gone, precedence is lost. Facing injustice, find your strength. In times of trouble, look within. Disciples. Unbeknownst to us, you have all been studying together
for three years. At the start, there was a debate
on humble origins. I wanted to teach that all things are equal,
with no fixed hierarchy. No need to distinguish
between noble and humble. The high may fall, and the low may rise. We should respect all. But it doesn’t tell us
if climbers seek fame and the fallen hold grudges, what to do? Now, it’s up to you to find out. My three years here are up.
It’s time to resume my travels. As I depart, I give each of you a gift. Open it when you’re in doubt. It’s our last lesson. What might I call you, sir? I’ll go by Mu Qinghua. Thank you for your teachings
in these past three years. Strange phenomena have been occurring
across the Southern Continent. It must be the Water God
trying to confuse us, hindering our quest for Jade Emperor
and Queen Mother’s reincarnations. Your Highness, since Jade Emperor’s
tribulations are decreed by the heavens. The Demon Court and the Xifang Taoism
cannot intervene directly. Why not use some external forces? For instance, inciting mortals
to turn against each other. [Make sure to come back safely] [Quezhou City] Amidst the mortal realm’s
rising conflicts, is Father safe enlisting by himself? Jade Emperor and Queen Mother’s fates
are written by the Tao of heaven. Their fortunes, whether good or ill,
are meant to be experienced. [Act according to your heart.] [Tree of Yearning] [Episode 58] With enemy forces at our doorstep,
we must keep our heads clear. I’ll seek the city lord’s consent
to march the troops into combat. Yes. But our top priority
is evacuating the civilians. I’ll take care of that. It’s a tough battle, but I’ll wait
for your victorious return. The drums beat, and the soldiers charge. Our warriors pledge
to defend this city to the end. The heavenly sign shows that victory
is certain for Father and Mother. But why are there
strange celestial events? It’s not just Quezhou City in trouble,
but the whole Youqin Kingdom. The Youqin Kingdom is declining. Everyone, defend the kingdom
with your lives! Yes! The Youqin Kingdom’s capital
is under attack. The Youqin Kingdom? Youdu… [Go] Yes! Even Sage Taiqing
closely watches Youqin’s battle. It seems there’s more going on. What is Xuanya yelling? This is what she must do
as a citizen of the Youqin Kingdom. Please don’t consider her mortal status
when making decisions. She just rushed to the Youqin Kingdom
on her own. What a stubborn girl. How could we stand by and do nothing
when the Youqin Kingdom is in danger? Wu, don’t be too anxious.
Jiu was there with her. That’s exactly why I’m more worried. Master, the battle in the Youqin Kingdom
is just between mortals. The grand immortal sect backing our foes
hasn’t joined the fight yet. According to mortal rules,
we can’t intervene. We’ll only provide treasures
and talismans to assist them. We’re not intervening. Besides, the enemy is already
making shady moves behind the scenes. The Daowei Immortal Sect’s aggression
hints at hidden motives. Today’s events are ultimately
our sect’s responsibility. Greetings, Senior.
We’re disciples of the Duxian Sect. Thank you for saving us. It’s alright. Go help settle the mortals first. Xuanya, come with me. Martial Brother Changshou,
did I mess up again? We’re up against an unbeatable foe, but I just feel… That even if you die there, you should speak out
and let the wrongdoers face justice? Xuanya, you’re exactly the same
as when I was younger. Come on, sit here. But now, I’ve become like most people. After a few setbacks,
I started to smooth out my edges, learn to blend in, and adapt to my surroundings
and became part of them. But you, even when faced with setbacks and blows, you never gave up on
what you believed in. Xuanya, I have planned a whole lecture for you. I was going to make you understand
how dangerous the primordial world is, and how provoking such powerful beings
is a sure way to get yourself killed. No matter how loudly you shout,
it won’t change anything. It would only put the elders
of the sect in danger. I wanted to remind you
of the survival rules for the weak and to be smart about
how you handle things. But just as I was about to say it, I realized I was just trying to avoid admitting
that I was beaten by the environment, and now I’m telling someone
brave enough to challenge it that she should give up like I did. That’s all. Don’t you get it? I’m complimenting you. Are you saying I’m stubborn? No, you’re not stubborn. You’re just a little hot-headed. I’m just an incarnation here.
Even if I die, it’s no big deal. But for our fellow disciples,
the people of Quezhou City, and even the entire Youqin Kingdom, everything hangs on that guy’s whim. If Youdu keeps being this stubborn, she’ll sooner or later bring disaster
to the Duxian Sect. [Big Brother] That’s what your actions could lead to. Shattered. What’s on your mind? I should handle things properly. If you’re going to hold on to
your sense of justice, how do you express it? How do you protect the jade
while moving the stone? Xuanya, your righteousness is more valuable
than the culmination of cultivation. But remember,
it will only shine brighter when cast upon the right path. So, don’t let others take advantage of you.
Learn to assess the situation. Don’t play hero,
and be smart with every action. In the primordial world,
right and wrong are constantly tangled. There’s no absolute truth. I want you to learn
how to protect yourself and those around you while keeping your noble heart intact. I was reckless today and nearly
put our fellow disciples in danger. When we return, I’ll get my punishment. Xuanya, are you possessed? Xuanya? Martial Aunt Jiu Jiu. Are you worried about Youqin Kingdom? When I entered the sect,
I should’ve let go of worldly matters. But it seems
my heart is still unsettled. Silly girl, who can truly forget
about their parents? It’s just that your parents
are different from most. Martial Aunt Jiu Jiu, I thought you came to stop me. Why would I stop you? We’re at a critical moment now.
Go back while you can. As long as I’m here, I’ll protect you. After you escort me to Youqin Kingdom,
there’s no need to… It remains a conflict of mortals,
not a strife our sect should meddle in. I don’t want
to make things difficult for the sect. Nonsense. How could I just… Fellows, why rush to go? They’re from the Daowei Immortal Sect. Elder? If you turn back now and inform your sect master
to hand over the Youqin Kingdom, we’ll ensure
the safe return of your disciples. You’re the sect
from Central Continent’s sects, and you’re coming all the way
to Southern Continent to claim land? Wind Surge. Well then, don’t expect us to play nice. Go to the Youqin Kingdom.
I’ll hold them off. Thank you, Martial Aunt Jiu! Mother. Where are they? The two guys are always causing trouble. Your Highness, the Crown Prince fell in battle. My boy… The Youqin Kingdom is doomed. My boy…
He doesn’t even have a name yet. I haven’t watched him grow up. No… We can’t. We must survive, Mother. We have to survive. Everyone, listen!
Evacuate through the rear hall! Over there! You’ve been empowered. Go! Here come reinforcements! I’m Xia Ningshuang,
daughter of the City Lord of Quezhou. I’m General Hua Youming of Quezhou City. We’re here to assist! Great! The King of the Youqin Kingdom aided
by drugs, has reigned for ages. He’s covered in karmic debt
from defying the natural order, but the people of the Youqin Kingdom
have lived in peace and prosperity. The question is… Does Sage Taiqing want me to protect the Youqin Kingdom, or to protect
Hua Youming and Xia Ningshuang? Though, I suppose those two goals
don’t conflict. Don’t let a single soul
from the Youqin Kingdom escape. I want them to suffer
in the living hell. Why are you here? The Daowei Immortal Sect
is behind this Youqin Kingdom battle. If you don’t want to be in danger,
please hurry and leave. I have my Escape Technique.
You don’t have to worry. Why don’t we come up
with a plan to save… Changshou.
As the Youqin Kingdom’s Princess, I should fight to protect the kingdom. You’re from the Duxian Sect. There you go again. Are you saying you don’t want the sect
involved and you want me to stay quiet? Did you forget everything I told you
when we faced Kong Xuan? We’re from the same sect
and are good friends. How can I leave you here on your own? Although I’ve been training
in the sect for years, I’ve never forgotten
the Youqin Kingdom is my home. Today, I’m not just
fighting for my family but also the citizens
of the Youqin Kingdom. It’s dangerous
and the enemy is powerful. I accept my destiny but please don’t get yourself involved. We can’t change what happened tonight. If you insist on saying more, we can end our friendship here. I don’t care anymore! Let her be! Youqin Xuanya, you’re finally here. Do you know who has destroyed
the Youqin Kingdom today? It’s me. You killed Yuan Qing back then. I’ve prepared for many years
for this day! Destroying the entire Youqin Kingdom
just for Yuan Qing only proves one thing. The Yuan Family’s great cause
of restoring the nation was a mistake. Shut your mouth! Blade. Wind. I’m at the first stage
of the Celestial Immortal Realm. How is it possible…? Seriously… Not even letting me finish. I’ll help you once today and lend you my power! You can repay me
with 500 years of devoted service! Riding Wind and Breaking Waves! Mother! Ya! Why… Why… At this moment? Changshou, help me… I’m here. Those who wish to live,
seal your cultivation and sit. Other than you. Self-developed Array.
Heaven’s Veil and Moon’s Shadow! The Daowei Immortal Sect failed.
The Duxian Sect is here to help! Retreat! [Big Brother] Since the masked woman
has been defeated, what are you going to do with her clan? Yuan Qing and her were traitors
and deserved to die, but going after the rest of the clan
will only breed hatred. With the Youqin Kingdom like this, why should we continue? Xuanya! I’m here to help! Why is it over? Aunt Jiu Jiu, Sect Master! Xuanya, I understand you were worried
about your family, but it was too dangerous
for you to come alone. You have to be more mindful
in the future. Sect Master… Alright Xuanya, don’t cry. Deputy Sect Leader Randeng,
that’s the Duxian Sect who attacked the Daowei Immortal Sect
of Chan Taoism! Deputy Sect Leader Randeng
from Chan Taoism came in person. Was Randeng behind the attack
on the Youqin Kingdom? Was the attack a battle between
Humans and Chan Taoism? The Daowei Immortal Sect started it! How dare you blame it on us! Jiu, don’t be impulsive. Deputy Sect Leader Randeng,
there must be a misunderstanding. Please… Since your juniors are quick-tempered, and there’s a misunderstanding, why don’t you come into
my Coffin Lamp and meditate? Please don’t blame me for this. Randeng insists on fighting
with the Youqin Kingdom. Protect the Emperor! The deputy leader’s Heaven
and Earth Ruler is indeed amazing. It can even draw upon the power
of Heaven and Earth. The Youqin Kingdom merely
has ordinary humans. Today, I will kill all of them. Supreme Paperman. Heaven and Earth Binding Array! The Junior Mage of Xuandu must be here
for the Jade Emperor’s rebirths too. If it was just a battle between
Humans and Chan Taoism, Randeng wouldn’t need to
kill everyone in the Youqin Kingdom. But if he’s after
the Jade Emperor’s rebirths, everything makes sense. This battle is about the demon court
and the heavenly court. The Youqin Kingdom’s Emperor
is full of sins. As the deputy sect leader
of Chan Taoism, I have to follow the teachings
of Chan Taoism. Junior Mage, don’t make things
difficult for me. That’s easy. I’ll kill the Youqin Kingdom’s Emperor as a favor to you. Changshou! Don’t worry, he won’t agree. This can save lives in the country
and follow the Chan Taoism teachings. How about that? What’s the point of killing him? An emperor full of sins can’t
be the rebirth of the Jade Emperor. This kid dares to set a trap for me? Junior Mage, how touching that
you’re thinking of the greater good. Honestly, I have the desire
to protect the talented too, so I wish to bring the Youqin people
back to give them careful instruction. [Careful instruction. Sweep them all]
Careful instruction? More like you want to sweep them all! Randeng would rather kill everyone
and not leave any survivors. How evil. Kong Xuan, I’m in trouble. Please help. Coming. Sir, please wait! Who said I’m a sir? Did I make a mistake? I’m sorry. Miss, I apologize for my hastiness. Who said I’m a miss? So what are you then? Are you neither? There’s such a clan
in the primordial world? You have a death wish! No wonder Mr. Gongming was defeated
by the Ruler in the Catastrophe. I can’t match up to it right now. Xuan! Xuan! Xuan! Please come and save me! With me here, who dares to harm
the Junior Mage of Xuandu? Kong Xuan! Fellow Taoist, don’t cause trouble for yourself
and make me injure you. Trouble? Injure me? During the Great War
of Witches and Demons, Humans were slaughtered
by Witches and Demons, with less than one percent survived. At that time, Humans haven’t yet gained
the power of cultivation. To escape Demons in the sky
and Witches on the ground, they were forced to live underground. In the darkest time, the demon court
was protected by the Tao of Heaven. Humans rebelling against the demon court
was to rebel against the Tao of Heaven. They are…? Humans. These are the elite humans
from ancient times. Under Suiren’s command, they broke the Circling Formation
and toppled the demon court. Seeking power to battle the Witches
and Demons, he fell to the Devil Realm. 100,000 soldiers
followed him into the Devil Realm, battled the Witches
and razed the demon court. Water God, why did you come here today? [Two hours ago] Randeng?
Just a coffin guardian back in the day. You roamed with your Coffin Lamp,
swindling food from people. But you’re now acting
all high and mighty. Don’t get cocky.
I’m taking you down today. Your ruler is really useless. Is it? The universe lies within the ruler,
beyond measurable bounds. Five-Colored Divine Light.
Feather Strike. Do you think you can hurt me
with that ruler? Are you really planning
to join Human Taoism and oppose Chan Taoism? How arrogant! Immortal Yunxiao, Mr. Gongming? Even Jie Taoism has known the mess. I apologize for what I said.
Please don’t take offense. Using your powers to bully mortals? If it weren’t for Kong Xuan
and Changshou’s protection, the Heaven and Earth Ruler
would have flattened the Youqin Kingdom. The kingdom’s fate is sealed. We are simply following Heaven’s will
by eradicating it. What brought you here? When Heaven’s mandate fails,
we must intervene to save all beings. Are you defying Heaven’s will? Taoist Randeng, do you still remember why the Tao of Heaven came into being? The primordial world was broken in the war
of Dragons, Phoenixes, and Qilins. Pangu’s remaining will in this world transformed into the Tao of Heaven to protect the world. So, the Tao of Heaven’s true purpose
is to protect all beings. If that’s the case, shouldn’t you help us
protect the Youqin Kingdom instead of going against its survival? You… The old days are gone. If the Tao of Heaven harms
living beings, we should oppose it. If all beings must be restrained,
why shouldn’t the Tao of Heaven? Restraining the Tao of Heaven? Interesting. Well said. Jie Taoism will take responsibility
for Youqin Kingdom’s fate. Chan Taoism has already
openly opposed Human Taoism. If he insists on going
against Jie Taoism, he’ll be defying two
of the three Taoist sects. Can Randeng bear the guilt of splitting the Taoist sects? I’ll remember everything
Jie Taoism has said today. After I report this to Yuanshi Tianzun,
we’ll come for you to settle this. The three questions
about the Tao of Heaven not only highlight
that Taoists should protect all beings, but also expose the hypocrisy
of Chan Taoism’s Deputy Sect Leader. Immortal Yunxiao is truly impressive. As the Name List Catastrophe unfolds,
and Chan and Jie Taoisms clash, Randeng will use the Ruler
to ambush Zhao Gongming. I can’t let the Randeng
get the Ruler again. But I can’t worsen the conflict
between Human Taoism and Chan Taoism. Calm down, Taoist Kong Xuan.
I apologize on behalf of Taoist Randeng. But you can’t take
his Heaven and Earth Ruler. I could if I wanted to,
but I don’t see the necessity. Alright. For Xuandu’s sake,
I’ll help you one more time. Taoist Randeng, you can count on me.
I’ll protect you. How could I miss out
on something this fun? Kong Xuan’s speed is truly remarkable. I really can’t keep up. Taoist Randeng… Why did you strike me? You guys… Enough! [Big Brother] The true powerhouses outdo us
not just because of cultivation. Is it because our treasures
aren’t good enough? No, I mean strategy… and the ability to swallow the pride. This mostly comes down to talent,
not cultivation. Junior Mage of Xuandu and Mr. Gongming are really wise masters. What? You think I can’t have
the Heaven and Earth Ruler? No, you got me wrong. Randeng made the first move today, and you retaliated out of pride. Being respected, he will apologize,
even with the Ruler as compensation. Who said I… Holding a grudge
would tarnish Chan Taoism’s honor [Note of Guilt]
and doom the Taoist sects. You have a point, Junior Mage. The Heaven and Earth Ruler is yours now. Thank you for your trust.
I’ll be the mediator today. Shall we lay the matter
between Taoist Randeng and Kong Xuan to rest? What’s happening? The Tao of Heaven’s
power is suddenly contracting. It feels like my inner power
is disappearing. These are the shackles formed
by the power of the Tao of Heaven. Once an immortal is bound by them,
they’ll lose all their power. There’s a disturbance in Heaven. That’s… divine retribution. Master, it seems the Tao of Heaven
is warning us. The Heaven has been in turmoil recently. A great catastrophe will come
within the next millennium or two. You and Gongming must be prepared. Yuanshi Tianzun of Chan Taoism
has intervened. Something is wrong. Let’s go back. Even a sage rush to avoid it.
What does the Tao of Heaven want? No matter how clever your schemes are,
the Youqin Kingdom is doomed. As a small nation, how could Youqin
provoke such wrath from Heaven? Must this kingdom be destroyed? Heaven’s will always has a deep meaning. Neither sages
nor the Heavenly Court can interfere, or they would become enemies
of the Tao of Heaven. This is divine retribution. [Go]
Sages can’t defy the Tao of Heaven, so I’m sent there instead? Without heavenly soldiers or sages,
what else can I do? Right now,
there’s only one last glimmer of hope. The celestial lightning has vanished. Jian Di, are you alright? You’re pregnant. Jian Di gives birth to Qi. The baby she’s carrying is Qi,
the future ancestor of the Shang Kingdom. That’s why the celestial lightning
avoided Jian Di. And someone destined
to found the Shang Kingdom cannot inherit the throne
of the Youqin Kingdom. That’s why the Tao of Heaven
must destroy the Youqin Kingdom. To begin the Name List Catastrophe,
the Shang Kingdom must rise. And to found the Shang Kingdom,
an innocent kingdom can be wiped out, its people killed. Can such a Tao of Heaven
still be stopped? Human devil soldiers,
shatter the Heaven! The only force capable
of opposing the Tao of Heaven is the Devil Realm. Humans have shattered the Heaven once, and we can do it again. [A while ago]
After the battle, only 3,623 of the original
100,000 devil soldiers remained. Their souls, corrupted by devil energy, lost all emotion and sense. They can only follow Suiren’s orders to protect Humans. What about Suiren? He was deemed a threat
by the Tao of Heaven due to the heavy devil energy
surrounding him. As punishment, his throne
in Heavenly Court was stripped, and he was to be confined. Forced to retreat to Huoyun Cave, Suiren recovers his body while guarding Humans’ fate and counterbalancing the Tao of Heaven. Senior Yu, how can we restrain
the Tao of Heaven’s force? Suiren exists to counterbalance
the Tao of Heaven. We all cultivate Suiren’s Path of Flame to stand against Heaven. If Heaven ever raises
its blade against Humans, we will rise up in resistance. Taoist Ancestor? Devil soldiers, it’s been ages. How’s Suiren’s injury? Thanks for asking. Suiren asked me to send his regards. Though the Human Emperor
has left worldly concerns, he won’t tolerate oppressions on Humans. Wait, if Suiren were truly well, he would be here himself
with the devil soldiers. If the Taoist Ancestor insists on intervening, along with his Six Great Followers, the Human Emperors
will face dire circumstances. Greetings, Taoist Ancestor.
I’m Water God from the Heavenly Court. Under orders from Jade Emperor
and Queen Mother, I assist Princess Long Ji
in interim Heavenly Court affairs. I witnessed the Youqin Kingdom’s ruler
defy Heaven’s order to extend his life, yet their fate drew near. So, I came seeking an opportunity
for the people of the Youqin Kingdom. What opportunity? I see potential in this girl. I’d like to bestow upon her unborn child
a Mandate of Heaven, allowing him and his descendants
to lead the Youqin Kingdom’s remnants in building a new kingdom. That would be more prosperous
than the current Youqin Kingdom. Since the Tao of Heaven desires
to found the Shang Kingdom, re-establishing the Youqin Kingdom
as the Shang Kingdom would preserve its people, uphold Humans’ interests and ease tensions between Human Emperors
and the Tao of Heaven. Would you agree to establish
three Immortal Contracts? First, if any ruler of the new kingdom
violates the Mandate of Heaven, they shall lose their soul. Second, the new kingdom must honor the Heavenly Court, ancestors,
and traditions. Third, the kingdom
must not harbor cultivators. The Heavenly Court
will provide protection. What do you think? I will keep the rules in mind. With the Immortal Contracts
helping the Youqin Kingdom, I will name my unborn child “Qi”.
[*”Qi” means “Contract”] That’s the founder of the Shang Kingdom. As expected, everything aligns
with the Tao of Heaven’s will. I wonder if I have handled
this matter properly. Kong Xuan will protect
the new kingdom for a century. You must honor his kindness
by the new kingdom’s totem of his image. What happened to Kong Xuan? The Taoist Ancestor has rectified him. What does that mean? The Tao of Heaven allows nothing
to defy the Mandate of Heaven. When such defiance is sensed, the Taoist Ancestor will intervene. Either adjusting the mind of the defier or eliminating them outright. Kong Xuan, lead them eastward. As you command. So, the Tao of Heaven altered
their minds through the Taoist Ancestor. Even if Youqin willingly builds
the Shang Kingdom, it isn’t enough. It has to be founded by the Sacred Bird. The Tao of Heaven won’t tolerate
any deviation from the Catastrophe? Soldiers, return to Huoyun Cave! Changgeng, I once asked you
about defying Heaven. To defy is to face success or failure. If we succeed, we can change destiny. If we fail, we become mere pieces
on the Tao of Heaven’s board. You should understand by now that the enemy we face
is incredibly strong. My resolve has never changed,
and this fight is far from over. To defy Heaven’s will, Humans seek power beyond the Tao of Heaven,
power akin to Pangu’s. Otherwise, we’ll ultimately
be confined by it. Yet even the strongest Taoist Ancestor must act according to the Tao of Heaven. Is power alone enough to overcome Heaven? Changshou, I will see my parents again, right? Absolutely. When the Name List Catastrophe begins, the people of the Shang Kingdom
will be swept into a senseless war. To help Humans avoid such calamity, I’ll have to challenge
the Tao of Heaven. I may be a piece on the chessboard, but I can also become
the one who moves the pieces. [Big Brother] In all my cultivation,
have I changed anything? Yes. And now, when I make certain decisions, has the Tao of Heaven
already influenced me? Do not doubt yourself.
All things have their course. So, the Tao of Heaven’s influence on beings is limited. Thank you, Sage. I am at peace now. The Heavenly Court is of utmost importance. Remember that. What does that mean? Does it imply that even sacrificing
the power of the Taoist sects to rapidly strengthen the Heavenly Court and complete the Tao of Heaven would be worth it? My master says a great calamity
will befall our sect soon, yet the chaotic workings of Heaven keep him from seeing the truth. Calamities always come and go. It’s something
we’ve grown accustomed to over the ages. You haven’t faced one yet, have you? Be extra careful. When calamity strikes, no one can say if the thoughts
stirring deep in their hearts are their own or Heaven’s influence to lure them into disaster. Why would the Tao of Heaven
bring down calamity? The spiritual energy
between Heaven and Earth is limited. As more beings start to cultivate and transform spiritual energy
into their own power, it edges towards depletion. So, the Tao of Heaven
unleashes calamity, forcing beings to return
their spiritual energy to nature. In this way, Humans seem to align with the Tao of Heaven’s interests since they have the ability to survive
without relying on spiritual energy. And if they cultivate,
they can be powerhouses. Perhaps the path to balance
between Humans and Heaven lies in this truth. Junior Mage, though Randeng has left, we don’t know
if he has laid traps somewhere. Shall I see you
back to the Heavenly Court? You… You guys… This brat… He dares to steal the girl from the Water God right in front of me. That’s too bold. It’s nasty. Water God, seriously, you need to watch yourself. What’s wrong? Today’s divine retribution reminded me
of past heavenly punishments. I must’ve caught the Lord of Heaven’s
special attention. First during my tribulation,
then when I crafted papermen, and now, the divine retribution has left me battered and bruised. But I can only be grateful. It’s clear your power
has grown significantly to attract the Tao of Heaven’s notice. Congratulations to you. You’re always so meticulous, but it does take a toll. It wouldn’t hurt
to relax once in a while. You know, I haven’t cultivated for long, nor have I reached a high level
of understanding of Taoism. I fear that someday, when what I foresee actually happens,
I’ll be powerless to stop it. So I can’t help but always think and calculate. How long was your longest time
thinking something over? Seventeen years. And what occupied you so long? The Taoist sects. Well, it concerns me as well. If you don’t mind, I could help you
figure things out in the future. Thank you for accompanying me this far. I’ll return to Three Immortals Island
to cultivate. Then, how about we meet once
every five hundred years? Immortal Yunxiao. Um… This meeting
was due to special circumstances. Can we count this meeting out? Of course. Gongming, what are you up to? Dude, listen up. A junior mage from Human Taoism wants
to steal Yunxiao from you. If you don’t get
the Matchmaker Deity to help, you’ll be out of the game. With the catastrophe looming, is this the time for this concern? How do I explain to you it is me? The Matchmaker Deity
oversees love and relationships and deals with them daily. In this vast primordial world, surely no one understands
matters of that better than you. I just know a bit. He knows nothing. The Jade Emperor ordered him here
to watch over the Tree of Longing. Aged male Celestial Immortal as he is, what do you expect him to know? Matchmaker Deity, here’s the thing. I see. Immortal Yunxiao wants
to be confidants with the Water God, while the Water God wants
to be her cultivation partner. Exactly. But someone like Immortal Yunxiao doesn’t have a wooden figure
on the Tree of Longing. I can’t bind their fates, so we need another way. How about having Water God
write her a letter to show his feelings? A letter? You mean the kind that seems simple but actually makes no sense? Gongming, have you received a letter
like that before? Jinguang once wrote me one. Looks like Jinguang wants
to be your cultivation partner, but you only see her as a confidant. Lady Jinguang. In the story
of the Name List Catastrophe, [Name List. Lady Jinguang.]
she’s listed after her death [Weapon: Soaring Gold Sword]
and becomes Immortal of Lightning. Right now, with the Shang Kingdom
at a critical point, the future Immortal of Lightning falls
for the future God of Wealth. Is it true love… or just another script
from the Tao of Heaven? [To Gongming] This is the third letter
from Jinguang recently. Are you sure
you’re not interested in her? I’ve always considered her
a fellow junior, nothing more. But every time I try to reject her, she looks at me with such longing eyes. I can’t bring myself to say no. Mr. Gongming, why don’t you
write to her instead? Good idea. And please stop calling me Mr. Gongming. Just Gongming will do. Alright, Gongming. Ms. Jinguang, I indeed suggested Gongming
write the letter, since he is troubled by your letters. I shouldn’t have kept pressuring him. No, Martial Aunt Jinguang, [Goddess Huoling, from Jie Taoism]
it doesn’t necessarily mean rejection. Huoling? Goddess Huoling is a prominent disciple
of Taoist Duobao in Jie Taoism. In the Catastrophe, she’ll fight
the Western Zhou Army to avenge, sparking the confrontation
between Jie and Chan Taoism. Why do female immortals from Jie Taoism
always call themselves goddesses? Isn’t that too similar
to Mother Goddess? Saintess sounds better. Look, starting from the fourth line,
if you read the first character of every other line,
you’ll understand its meaning. It makes the rejection pretty clear,
don’t you think? Jinguang, I’ve had feelings
for you for too long. This is… Amazing! He writes an acrostic poem. Isn’t that a bit forced though? If it’s really an acrostic,
why didn’t he start from the first line? Jinguang isn’t dumb enough
to fall for that. So I misunderstood him. Gongming! Gongming! Water God, thank you. She has suffered for so long.
I couldn’t stand seeing her heartbroken. I heard you’re very talented,
so I brought her here to you. Please help her.
I’ll take the consequences. Ms. Jinguang has such a loyal friend. Alright, I’ll help you. [Defeated] Dizang, you’ve finally returned
from your travels. Junior Mage of Xuandu ruined my things
at the critical moment. That’s annoying. Have your Diting use its powers
to find him. I’ve already tried, but even Diting
can’t do anything about it. Useless. Might as well cook it up. There’s been emotional turmoil.
We might leverage a gap. Dizang, do you think you can handle it? Have you heard? Senior Huoling has moved
to Martial Uncle Gongming’s Luofu Cave. The two of them… Huoling? Who said that? It was Martial Uncle Huanglong
from Chan Taoism. So you spread the rumors
about me and Huoling? This is just nonsense! I’ve said I didn’t say that! I didn’t! Why are you making false accusations? First you admitted it,
and now you deny it. You’re just a liar. Senior, hurry! Jie Taoism is bullying me. You think I can’t call for help? Fellows, assemble in Central Continent! Huanglong spread rumors
and tarnished Huoling’s reputation. What is Chan Taoism really trying to do? The Three Sects of Taoism
share a common origin. Did you think about that
when you insulted Huanglong? I’ve been set up. Why? Isn’t this what we were hoping for? What I want is to make it slow. I want their tensions to peak and break. But the situation today
is beyond what I imagined. The one behind the scenes
not only saw through my plan but has turned it against me. Duobao and Guang Chengzi
acted their parts well. Xifang Taoism,
you stirred up a big mess today. I’m really curious to see
how you’re going to handle it. The Great Mage of Xuandu
finally makes an appearance. Senior Xuandu. I heard rumors
about the two sects earlier, so I asked the Heavenly Court
to create a Tablet of Righteous Decree to trace the source of all this. [Win People With Righteousness] Sage Zhunti. Level 12 Merit Golden Lotus?
Xifang Taoism is covering for him. All immortals of Jie Taoism, listen up! All immortals of Chan Taoism, listen up! Follow me to Ling Mountain! Got it! [Big Brother] How dangerous. Every move in this game
is tightly connected. Dizang returned just in time
to seek help and avoid the tablet trick, but the trap leading to Ling Mountain
is unavoidable. What now? Leader of Xifang Taoism, show yourself! So soon. Is today my doomsday? Master, I don’t think
you’re getting out of this one. Make sure you find a good master for me. Sage Zhunti, I wonder if I’m just a pawn for you and can be discarded at any moment. Fellows, why make such a fuss?
What’s wrong? Your disciple spread lies
and tarnished my disciple’s reputation. The Tablet of Righteous Decree suggests the person is on Ling Mountain. Don’t worry, we will
give you an explanation. Which one of you did this? I did it. Thank you, Sage Zhunti. Master, your sect
has no regard for life and even manipulates the disciples
with the soul-capturing technique. Watch your words. I heard you’ve been
insulting my disciples everywhere. In a fit of anger, I came up
with this scheme of slandering. As expected,
they found a disciple to take the blame. If I’m right, Xifang Taoism will find a disciple
to take the blame when you arrive. Why not… Is that so? Read this incantation from the scroll. Swear by the Tao of Heaven,
and I’ll believe you. The swear must be true,
with no lies allowed. If the disciple truly reads it,
we’ll know he’s lying. Using the swear to put Xifang Taoism
in a difficult position. Water God, great idea. What are you waiting for? Read it. Unless… are you too scared to read it? This is just a private grudge. Our masters all learned
from the Taoist Ancestor. Why make things so awkward? Impressive, Xifang Taoism. [Immortal Taiyi, from Chan Taoism]
When we speak reason, you bring up face. When we talk about face,
you start talking about connections. You… No matter what we say,
you’ll accuse us of bullying the weak. Fine, then. We accept that. We’ve come here today
to bully you easy targets. You can fight back or just swallow it. That’s Immortal Taiyi. Impressive. He can make your blood boil
just by speaking. I wonder how the future Nezha
ever put up with his master. That’s… It’s all part of fate.
What starts must end. With cause comes effect. From today, Ling Mountain
will be closed off for 1000 years. Unless I command otherwise,
no disciple may leave at will. Silencing his disciples in public
is utterly shameless. Gongming, our goal is achieved. Xifang Taoism won’t dare to plot
against us so recklessly. Let’s stop. Since the matter is settled,
we’ll take our leave. This is really satisfying. Not only did we successfully dismantle
Xifang Taoism’s plot, but we’ve also strengthened the ties
between Jie and Chan Taoism. I hope the two sects
can stop fighting in the Catastrophe. Taiji Diagram? So Sage Taiqing
is covering for this guy. You, in the light; he, in the dark.
So you lost, and he won. From today,
you’re grounded here for reflection. Do not act without my command. Yes, Sage Zhunti. Master, do you know
who’s behind all of this? Someone with such brilliant schemes,
able to evade your thought-reading, and hidden behind
Sage Taiqing’s protection. In the entire primordial world,
who else could it be but the Water God? Master, are you afraid? I’m not. If this was truly his plan,
my defeat wasn’t too ugly. Just admit you’re inferior to him.
Why are you being so stubborn? You’re getting worked up,
so you showed weakness. Water God, next time we meet,
it won’t be so simple. I’ve been in seclusion for months, only recently hearing about the rumors
between Huoling and my brother. Fortunately, you’ve been working
behind the scenes to expose the culprit. Given my brother’s temper, it might not end well. Thank you.
It was nothing more than a small ruse. Though the tensions
between the two Taoisms have eased, it’s unclear if their future conflicts
can be altered. The struggle seems inevitable, but it’s hard to know
if this is the destined path. With the strife now calmed, why do you still seem so worried? I was pondering whether living beings truly have
a choice under the Tao of Heaven. Is every being here always subject to its control? If I were to rebel one day, what then? The Great Tao encompasses all, yet Heaven leaves one part undefined, which is the chance. Who can guarantee in every case they can be the ones
to defy the Tao of Heaven’s limits? Do you still remember
the teachings of the Jie Sect? To secure a sliver of life
for all beings. Your nature always leans
towards caution, so much so that you find it hard
to fully trust others. But sometimes, this sliver of life
doesn’t manifest within oneself. My master often tells us to collaborate in assistance,
and to weather the storm together. By harnessing collective strength,
one is invincible in the world. With pooled wisdom,
one fears not even the sages. I understand. Heartfelt talks with a senior
truly benefit my cultivation. Now you know I am your senior. My path will inevitably clash
with the Tao of Heaven’s course. I must be fully prepared. [Salvation Project
for the Name List Catastrophe] Well, you bold black panther, daring to snatch my treasures. At this critical juncture
before the Catastrophe, Sage Taiqing suddenly asks me
to pay attention to a black panther. Strange. It doesn’t seem
to have much cultivation. Give me your life! Help! Flame, form a serpent. Go! Thanks for your help. Wait a moment. Is he Jiang Ziya’s junior, a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, Shen Gongbao? Your rescue is a life debt.
May you live safe and well. This demon is just
at the Celestial Immortal Realm. It’s still alive. And I didn’t sense its ambush. It’s like my spiritual sense
was blocked. What’s going on? Are you all right? Shen Gongbao will exert himself
to the utmost during the Catastrophe. He will go to great lengths. Sage Taiqing has me
get to know this child of fate. It seems he has his own plans
for the Catastrophe. Senior, please don’t misunderstand.
I have no ill intentions. I sincerely wish you a successful life. May you have a smooth journey ahead… Senior, are you OK? Has Shen Gongbao been cursed
with a jinxed mouth? However, he can still be of use. A minor injury
is nothing to worry about. I just find you quite interesting. The Demon Court is about to rise,
and talents like you are needed. Are you from the Demon Court? I will leave some elixirs for you. Stay here
and take care of your injuries. You will have your chance
to shine in the future. May I know your name, Senior? I’m just a cultivator
who values solitude. I avoid worldly matters and seek peace. You can just call me Lu Ya. Lu Ya from the Demon Court? Are you…? [Wishing Lu Ya longevity, prosperity,
and good health.] Your Highness, I will always
be grateful for your kindness. I’ve set up a longevity tablet
in your honor. From now on,
I will offer incense every day. What caused my breath to go off track? I wish you well. The revival
of the Demon Court depends on you. How could the array
collapse for no reason? I haven’t lost luck or owed any merits. This is not a coincidence. Who is trying to harm me? I certainly don’t expect Shen Gongbao
to actually curse Lu Ya to death. However, it does provide an opportunity
to test the Tao of Heaven. I’ve been curious ever since
the Sacred Bird brought forth Shang. How much can I alter the script of the Tao of Heaven? At that time, it intended to kill all royal members
of Youqin except for Jian Di. After my mediation, these people were spared. However, to adhere
to the script of Shang, it made corrections to Kong Xuan. Under the script, what can be changed and what cannot be changed? Why were the Youqin royals spared, while Kong Xuan had to be corrected? Between altering the script
and following it, there must be a margin of deviation. If I can deduce the exact value
of this deviation rate, I’ll have more room for maneuvering, to save as many people as possible. [Deviation Rate] [Actual Values minus Ideal Values,
divided by Ideal ones, times 100%] Lu Ya, the number one enemy
of Jie Taoism during the Catastrophe, will be my first test subject
for calculating the deviation rate. [Big Brother] Mother, please tell me, what exactly did I do wrong? Why does Heaven wish to destroy me? So many years have passed. The Golden Crow Palace
is now nothing but ruins. I am the only one left of my siblings. Departing from the place of sunrise, drifting through the endless sky. Returning to the depths of dusk, bathing in the waters of Ganyuan. [Wishing Lu Ya longevity, prosperity,
and good health.] Mother Goddess requests
the Water God’s presence at the palace.​ The black panther
placing a curse on Lu Ya is your calculation, right? Lu Ya has repeatedly plotted
against the Jade Emperor, making him a significant threat
to the Heavenly Court. I had no choice but to act. I promised his mother, Xihe, to protect his life. If he does not make
any significant mistakes in the future, you must not act. If you don’t want to end up becoming
a taboo of the Tao of Heaven like the one from your hometown, cease challenging its limits. Senior Bold? Goddess, about that person… All you need to know is that he is dead. The Tao of Heaven
has expunged his existence. I cannot speak of it further. Senior Bold has perished. Then my previous suspicions
were mistaken. Neither Sage Taiqing
nor Hong Jun can be him. I have some things to remind you about. Among the three Taoisms, Senior Yuanshi’s mind is too profound, and Senior Tongtian is defiant. Only Senior Taiqing has long understood
the principle of rise and fall. During the Great War
of Witches and Demons, among the Six Sages, only he acted covertly, aiding Xuandu in the battle
against Donghuang Taiyi. Afterward, as the Demon Court fell
and the Heavenly Court rose, Senior Taiqing even took a reincarnation
to reside in the Heavenly Court. Turns out that the Sage Taiqing
had once intervened to assist Xuandu in defeating Donghuang Taiyi. Wait, didn’t the Great Houtu
also mention this? This is Human Taoism’s promise to me. Now that the Seven Emotions
have broken free from their seal, everything is coming to pass. Could it be that Human Taoism’s promise
is also related to Sage Taiqing? He has secretly done so much. It seems my previous guesses
were not wrong. Sage Taiqing also does not want
to see infighting within the Taoisms. His plans don’t conflict with my plan
to rescue people in the Catastrophe.​ Thank you for your guidance,
Mother Goddess. Draw a few volumes of comics
since you are here. [Chu Liuxiang and Tian Boguang] Obviously, Lu Ya cannot die just yet. However, to calculate
the deviation rate of the Heavenly Tao, [The deviation rate of the Heavenly Tao]
the sample data is still insufficient. More time is needed. For now, let’s start
by testing Gongming. Thank you for bringing me
to the Heavenly Court for a visit. Gongming, I have recently heard
that a great catastrophe is approaching. What are your plans? What are yours? What do you think of this place? The spiritual energy is rich,
and the Great Tao is clear. It truly is a perfect place
for cultivation. However, every action
is observed by the Tao of Heaven. It’s quite uncomfortable. It is impartial and selfless.
What’s the harm in being monitored? I don’t want the Heavenly Court’s merit, nor do I want to be controlled, and I certainly don’t want
any principles of rulership and loyalty. Why do we cultivate? First, to attain immortality,
and then to enjoy freedom. It’s about achieving total freedom,
with thoughts unfettered and at ease. Otherwise, how can one hope
to achieve transcendence?​ [The deviation rate of the Heavenly Tao] Indeed. Having Gongming join the Heavenly Court
to avoid the Catastrophe isn’t working. Immortal Yunxiao, Gongming, what can I do to save you? With your old injuries unhealed, it seems you have new ones,
Your Highness. This was formed
from the Level 12 Merit Golden Lotus. It can help you recover soon. You seek an alliance to oppose
the Heavenly Court and the Taoisms, but one lotus seed alone isn’t enough. An alliance? What I want is for the Demons
to follow my orders, to act in accordance without defiance. The Demon Emperor’s Seal. How do you have this in your possession? After the two Demon Kings fell, it vanished into the wilderness. I had to put in a lot of effort
just to find it. If you can make the Demons obey me, regardless of whether it works or not, how about I return this item to you? Changshou,
I made it back! Shouldn’t you verify who I am
before getting so close? If the person standing here
isn’t really you, then no matter how careful I am,
I probably wouldn’t survive. You’ve grown up a lot after this travel. Your state of mind
is not what it used to be. There is something serious
we need to talk about. Serious? Junior Mage of Xuandu, and Water God.
You have quite a few titles, don’t you? Keep this on the down-low. Besides, when I was out and around, I encountered
someone quite extraordinary. Have you ever
heard of Immortal Yunxiao? Yunxiao from the Jie Sect
is a primordial being and a powerhouse. You two… Why? It was me… It’s complicated. You could say Immortal Yunxiao and I crossed paths
over some matters. As time went on, our connection deepened. You’re overwhelming me with details.
How can I take it all in? I’m just slightly into her. After all, who wouldn’t fall for someone
as gentle and decisive as her? A primordial being, the sage’s disciple,
and a powerhouse, charming and graceful. I’m no match for her. You and Master are the ones
I trust the most. Are you willing to assist me
with a few tasks? Absolutely. I’ll lend you my strength
wherever I can. I’m not a quitter. Ling’e, when did you return?
How are you holding up? Master. The Qingqiu Fox
are stirring up trouble again. Greetings, Taoist Qi Yuan. This voice and this gaze. Something’s off. Master Ji, we’re thinking of pairing Xiaolan,
our Merit Vixen, with Taoist Qi Yuan. What do you think of it? What exactly did you resolve? If it weren’t for your twisted logic,
the fox wouldn’t have… A crush on Master. I was just doing what was necessary,
but she was reading too much into it. Besides, she seemed fishy. I’ve led her to a quiet spot.
We might uncover the truth there. [Are you lost?] Don’t you want to see me
even for a moment? Since we last parted, every time I close my eyes,
you’re all I see. Year after year, my feelings for you
have taken deep root. She’s completely smitten. You little brat, I will… Given the circumstances,
why not just be honest with her? Do you really believe that the fox
has taken a liking to our master? No, this is just the foxes’ trick. They charm their foes,
only to betray and shame them later. Taoist Lan, have you finished? Master, you’ve got a nosebleed. – I can’t bear to watch.
– So embarrassing. Is our master really immune
to such bewitching charm? He might last six hours. Sir, may I tend to your wounds? That’s not appropriate. If you don’t have feelings for me,
why can’t you look me in the eye? Taoist Lan, please keep your distance. After much thought, I feel
I should be honest with you. The truth about you impersonating Master
is about to come out. He is sincere
and wouldn’t deceive anyone. Please go ahead. With beauty in front of him, the old man
is about to show his true colors. You’ve actually been mistaken
about who I am all along. What? Getting it off my chest feels better. What do you mean by that? The one you fell for is another master who prefers to keep a low profile,
so he used my appearance to walk unseen. Certainly, I’ve allowed this. But I never expected… Why are you insisting on denying, sir? Though faces can be alike, the spirit
and temperament are unique to our own. All facades crumble in time.
You’ve been obsessed. So I’ve been hating
the wrong person all along. Hating? She’s losing it. Master’s clueless.
He’s likely to suffer for it. What else was I supposed to think? I thought you had some obsessions,
but it turned out I was the one fooled. Why aren’t you furious, resentful, and mortified? How can you be so calm? And if I’ve got this obsession,
isn’t that more to your advantage? Your obsession was partly because of me. If this leads you to harbor more,
I would not be at peace. Who is the person
taking your appearance? This concerns the safety of the master.
I would rather die than speak of it. If you’re feeling aggrieved, why not vent some of your anger on me? You… Every wrong has its rightful target. If it’s not you I’m after,
why would I bother to strike you? Goodness always triumphs over guile,
a rule that never ages. Come out. You truly are a master to be admired. You’ve faced allure with such grace. Changshou, take a walk with me. Take care. [Big Brother] If you had been clear
with Taoist Lan from the start, perhaps she could have avoided
years of resentment. Changshou, as your influence expands, you hold the power to shape
others’ destinies without even trying. But has this authority also diminished
your reverence for others? There’s nothing more I could teach you
on the path of cultivation. And I don’t know more than you do. I know you have a sense of integrity.
But you’re just used to playing it safe. But every cause has its effect. Ignoring karma
could lead to your own downfall. Master, I… This is a reckoning for you. You’re on track to become
an eminent figure in the Heavenly Court. I can’t keep reprimanding you at will. Maintaining a sense of reverence
and remembering the cycle of karma. [Are you lost?] Your master’s words hold some truth. But some overlook your circumstances. You began with little and were thrust
into the sects’ conflicts too early. Without hiding your identity,
you would’ve been eliminated. When it came to the fox,
you were in a difficult position. Are you speaking up for me? I deserve Master’s criticism
for my rough handling of the situation. My master’s love life has been tough. His heart is set on reuniting
with an old flame. But I’m not him, so it’s hard
for me to truly empathize. [For Li Changshou from Yunxiao] That’s exactly why you can’t
keep things bottled up. If you ever find yourself
in hardship again, you can always confide in me. Yunxiao, have you ever felt
a stirring in your heart? What do you mean by “stirring”? It’s when you can’t stop
thinking of someone. They’re on your mind all the time. Even in the pursuit of the Great Tao,
their presence lingers. Right now, I can’t tell if these thoughts
are just influenced by the catastrophe. I need to meditate in seclusion. Water God, something’s happening
to Taoist Qi Yuan. A cursed bond. Water God, you must trust me. He is your closest friend. I would never dare to arrange
a match for him carelessly. Especially not a cursed bond,
which is inescapable and unending. It’s the Tao of Heaven. Is this related to the Catastrophe? Is the fox the nine-tailed fox
that possesses Daji’s body? Deception always returns
to its true nature. Beset by filth without,
unsullied within, one may still gain
the ultimate realization. If you don’t want to end up becoming
a taboo of the Tao of Heaven like the one from your hometown, cease challenging its limits. What happened? In less than an hour, a hundred and sixty-two cities governed
by the Sea God Sect were attacked. Changshou, the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect
has sent a plea for help, saying they are under siege
by thousands of demon soldiers, including many masters
at the Daluo Immortal Realm. Even if I lead our forces there,
I’m afraid we might be outmatched. What do you think
we should do in this situation? Outside the Duxian Sect is a legion
of demons, numbering over 100,000. [A few hours ago]
If you can make the Demons obey me, regardless of whether it works or not,
I’ll return this item to you. Deal? Your Highness, the late emperor
commanded all with this seal. Reclaiming it will earn you the backing
of the Northern Continent’s masters. Loyal to the late emperor, they rival
the top ten demon marshals in power. The seal is the Demon Court’s treasure
and should be returned. But how can I trust you’ll return it
after the deed is done? I can swear by the Tao of Heaven. What? Is the Xifang Taoism taking oaths
by the Tao of Heaven now? Just a means to an end.
If it works, it’s fine. Master, betting it all on the seal?
Beware the stakes. This time, I’ve crafted a complex plan. Let’s see how the Water God
outsmarts me. Thanks for your patience. Dizang? Ling Mountain was sealed because of him. I didn’t expect him to be assigned
a new task by Sage Zhunti so soon. Master, she is Wenjing. Jingchan had suspected her
before he died. From now on, you need not kneel
when you see me. You may rise. Because of your backgrounds, you can only carry out tasks covertly. However, the contributions
you all have made will be recognized by both masters. You will receive what you deserve. May I ask what orders you have, sir? Diting has recently learned that the Water God is very likely
from the Human Taoism’s Immortal Sects. However, there are six branches of them. Wenjing. Which branch do you think
would be the most suitable to target if we want to pressure
the Water God to reveal himself? The Xiaoyao Immortal Sect
with the richest Tao inheritance. However, Water God
is certainly not an easy opponent. His Spirit Explosion is indeed quite frightening. The Human Taoism’s Immortal Sect
is under siege. If he uses the secret technique, wouldn’t he be destroying
his own defenses? Indeed, sir. During our discussion,
my plan has already begun. The demon soldiers as the vanguard,
are divided into three groups to attack. Everyone just needs
to wait here for instructions. This Dizang acts
with remarkable swiftness. Water God, it was you who asked me to lie low. It’s not that I didn’t inform you. Don’t blame me. Master, this Wenjing has been buzzing
in her mind non-stop. She must have a lot of evil intentions. [Xiong Village] [Xiaoyao Immortal Sect] [Duxian Sect]
Water God, if you don’t show yourself, we’ll level this place. They’re forcing me
to reveal my true form. Attacking Xiong Village
might make some sense. But why choose
the Duxian Sect of all places? The Duxian Sect’s weakness
doesn’t mean we should be bullied! Don’t worry, Master Ji. I’ll assist you
from the shadows in a moment. Kid, I’m here to protect you again. Mr. Tower. Sage Taiqing sent the Tower
to protect me. It seems things are really complicated. I must activate
the highest level of defense. Changshou? Master Ji, gather the sect and head
to the Earth’s Veins Shifting Array now. Fleeing without a fight? But the exit of the array was exposed during the last battle. It’s hard to guarantee that the enemy
won’t ambush us there this time. Years ago, I built
a new shifting array 16,000 zhang below the old one. It’s extremely hidden. Please take everyone there. Leave all of the matters to me. We’ll be counting on you. Tian Papermen Army, activate the emergency contact route
of Xiong Village. Shen Papermen Army,
request aid from Taoist Duobao. At the command of my master
Taoist Duobao, I, Huoling of Jie Taoism, am here
to aid the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect. Water God reacted so quickly. First an incarnation,
now calling for aid. Isn’t the Duxian Sect still here? Quick, don’t let them escape! Master Ji, why are those
in Xiaoqiong Peak absent? They’ve decided to stay. Then I’ll stay as well. Please. I’ll have no complaints
about my fate. Go ahead. Master Ji, this… That’s fine. It’s safer for her to stay there than to follow us. Martial Uncle Qi Yuan,
Martial Aunt Jiu… Xuanya. There is something
that I can’t tell them. Changshou, the array… Rest assured.
Everything has been taken care of. You and Ling’e can just sit and watch. Changshou,
how many demon soldiers are here? Over one hundred thousand. Really? Changshou, you have
a good chance of winning, right? Certainly. Are you doubting my escape technique? I wouldn’t dare.
You’re unmatched in fleeing. [Big Brother] We’re late. They’ve all escaped. Boss, could there be an ambush? Should we ask Dizang? Idiot, the Duxian Sect is nothing
but a minor pest. What traps could they set up? Don’t mention Dizang in front of me. Bang. One hundred thousand demon soldiers. Don’t even think of leaving. Changshou is impressive! Oh no, did I just spill the beans? Since I let Xuanya stay here, I never intended
to hide my identity anymore. Remember, the thought-shielding device
I gave you must always stay with you. Rest assured.
I guarantee there will be no mistakes. Where exactly is Changshou’s true form? I’m not sure about that. But he usually chooses the safest place. Don’t be afraid. I am a civil official
in the Heavenly Court not a military officer. I mainly specialize in arts
like Casting Beans to Create Soldiers, talismans, and poison pills. Charge! Self-developed Array. Mirror Maze. Mr. Tower, I’d like to borrow
a small fraction of your power. [Xiong Village] [Xiaoyao Immortal Sect] This way, I can confuse them and avoid exposing my background. Brat, you have
too many tricks up your sleeve. Didn’t you say
you are not skilled in combat? You scoundrel! You are nothing
but remnants of an ancient defeat. How dare you still make
such a racket here today? I’ve never seen such a shameless demon. You… Water God, why are you so headstrong? Should a war break out again
between humans and demons, you will bear the full responsibility
for the consequences. The Demon is not the enemy of the Human. The kindhearted Mother Nyuwa once held a distinguished position
among the Demon. Only those wicked beings
who regard life as insignificant are the true enemies of all beings
in the primordial world. Why does it make so much sense? Don’t listen to his nonsense. Charge! Too weak. They fight
like they’ve been fasting. Getting hit by them
is a total disgrace to the treasures. Dizang sent demon soldiers to die.
There must be another scheme at play. All three incarnations of the Water God
are equipped with the Marvelous Tower. Master, your plans have failed. This is only the first stage. Wenjing, what do you think of
the current situation? Sir, you are wise indeed. Attacking on the Human Taoism’s
Immortal Sects to expose Water God’s true identity
was just your first step. You aimed to make the Demon Court
hostile towards the Taoisms and creat enemies everywhere, so they have no choice
but to turn to the Xifang Taoism. How did you tell? We and the Demon Court have repeatedly
been defeated by the Water God. The heart of our defeats lay on the discord in our cooperation, which was exploited by the Water God. If we could control the Demon Court, the Water God would pose no threat. Master, her words echoed
exactly what you said before. Wenjing, sometimes being too clever
isn’t a blessing. Go to the Duxian Sect
and support the demon soldiers. May your cleverness not fail me this time. Yes. He intended to turn the Demon
towards Xifang Taoism. As expected of Dizang. Wenjing, assist me later. That smile on his face means
someone is about to be dealt with. So many demon soldiers today. He was right after all. A whole bunch of merits
are being delivered to our doorstep. What do you mean by that? Wasn’t today’s matter known
only to Master Dizang? Could it be that the Water God
and Dizang are in cahoots? You must have misunderstood
Master Dizang. You’ve found out the truth. For the sake of Taoist Dizang,
I can’t let you go today. Master, you are in big trouble. I, Changgeng the Water God, command
with the sacred treasure’s divine power. Heavenly soldiers, surround this place. Do not let a single demon escape. allowing us to probe
the Water God’s true background. This way, we still have a chance
to turn the situation around. It’s too late, Master! She’s already made her move. Is it inappropriate that we killed
these demon soldiers without permission? The Water God is clearly trying
to smear Master Dizang. If we let them leave alive, Master Dizang’s reputation
will surely be affected. Wenjing, you’ve ruined my plan.
Retreat now! Yes. Black Mosquito with Bloody Wings,
prepare to die! Water God, I know
we’re just putting on an act, but that is too hard! There’s something
even harsher yet to come. Paperman Spirit Explosion Array. Mighty explosion, activate! Spirit Explosion Array? When did he set it up around here? Master, something terrible has happened. A powerful demon emerged
in the Northern Continent and threatened to seek revenge on you. Master, Lu Ya has learned about
what happened today. He declared that he would no longer
collaborate with Xifang Taoism. Master. Out with it. Water God just said a few words
at the Xiaoyao Immortal Sect. Master, you… What did he say? Master, perhaps it’s better left unsaid.
I fear it might enrage you severely. Speak. He said… “Haha. I’m truly flattered. I had received no prior notification
from Dizang whatsoever. Our equally matched strategies
have earned us mutual respect.” He courts the Demons’ favor, while I guard Human Taoism’s heritage
and the Heavenly Court’s honor. That’s all. We didn’t collude. Even now he’s still covering up
for Dizang. So shrewd of him. [An Actor’s Work] That’s truly a heart-wrenching blow! Sage Zhunti, I was outmatched this time. I’ll try to negotiate
with the Demon Court. Everything has its own course
and cannot be forced. Wenjing, have you realized your mistake? Please enlighten me. You and the Water God teamed up
to ambush the demon soldiers. By doing so, you corroborated
the rumors of our collusion, didn’t you? They were influenced by the Water God. I feared they would spread the news,
so I took action to silence them. Everything I did
was for your sake, Master Dizang. If today’s events cause any trouble
to your cooperation with the Demon Court, you can hand me over without hesitation. I will not hold any grudge. But please, never doubt
my loyalty to you. You… Forget it. The Water God is indeed formidable. If it weren’t for my severe injuries and his instruction on what to say, it would have been hard to dispel
Xifang Taoism’s suspicions this time. Such a relief. Master, are you sure she can be trusted? I see no flaws at all in her words. So, you think she’s trustworthy? The lack of flaws
usually leads to two possibilities. Either it’s genuine, or it’s a perfect deception. I hope it’s the former. If it’s the latter, it means his cunning
is beyond exceptional, and Xifang Taoism would be
in serious trouble. – Good!
– Nice! Xuanya, remember what happened today. I’ll ensure you have
a bright future ahead. I won’t let you down. [Big Brother] Your Highness,
Dizang has been waiting outside. For this Demon Emperor’s Seal, the Demon Court has lost
many demon soldiers. Go tell Dizang that the Demon Court will no longer
collaborate with Xifang Taoism. Your Highness, isn’t this exactly
what the Water God intended? The Water God’s provocation was real, and Dizang’s ulterior motives
were real as well. Otherwise, why would he send
my demon soldiers as the vanguard? For the sake of the seal,
I won’t hold Dizang accountable for now. But as for the Black Mosquito
with Bloody Wings that ambushed the demon soldiers, she had better stay hidden forever. Otherwise, the Demon Court
will tear her to pieces. This battle was truly risky. Our fortunate victory
was entirely due to your assistance. However, the extensive search
for you by Lu Ya was beyond my consideration. Next time, prioritize your own safety
above all else. Since I performed so well this time, Water God, when will you…? You are in danger right now. When the opportunity arises,
I will let you meet the Great Mage. I understand. [Collectible of the Great Mage]
This is called a collectible. In my hometown,
it’s a token of significance. So adorable! The collectible of the Great Mage. Thank you, Water God. My dear collectible. Everything has finally been settled
about Wenjing. After the battle at Duxian Sect, though Xiaoqiong Peak was not affected,
its defenses still needed upgrades. It’s time for another round
of improvements at Xiaoqiong Peak. Phase Two renovations at Xiaoqiong Peak
are now underway. [Construction Site. Keep Out.]
The new Xiaoqiong Peak may look the same on the outside, but it holds many secrets within. It not only has fortified caverns
and mobile super array turrets, but also allows the people within
to shrink and enlarge with ease through the use of spatial techniques. The new version of Xiaoqiong Peak,
designed by Li Changshou, makes escaping much more convenient. Additionally, the treasures also
need upgrading, especially the Heaven and Earth Ruler
seized from Randeng. With the Catastrophe approaching,
Yunxiao told us to cultivate here. After you’re done playing,
just head back. There’s no sign of it yet,
what are you afraid of? They claimed Ling Mountain
would be sealed off, but Dizang is wandering outside again. Qiongxiao, Bixiao,
are you still as skilled as ever? Of course. Quick, help me. Someone attacked me. So vicious. Gongming, what happened? Wake up! Xifang Taoism. Dizang. You’re the one who injured Gongming! I was merely passing by. Gongming, wake up! Well, do you want to settle this
publicly or privately? – Dizang!
– I saw everything just now. – How will you compensate for Gongming?
– You can’t leave until you clarify. Why has the primordial world
changed so much? To be fair, Dizang reacted so quickly. When I spat blood,
he did the same immediately. What’s so funny? Tell me about it. It had nothing to do with us.
It was all Gongming’s idea. Exactly. You two… Yunxiao, let me explain. Gongming and your sisters
indeed tried to scam Dizang. Though they haven’t completely kicked
their bad habit, at least they unintentionally
vented my frustration. Are you referring to Dizang
sending demon soldiers against the Immortal Sect, forcing you to reveal yourself? How did you know? I always keep an eye on your matters. The Heavenly Court won’t ignore
the attack on the immortal sect. In the past, the Taoist Ancestor
commanded the Heavenly Court to oversee the primordial world. I will issue a demon subjugation decree
in the name of the Heavenly Court, so our actions will be justified. The Catastrophe is approaching.
Even though you’re acting on behalf of the Heavenly Court,
you must be careful. I’ve been feeling unsettled. I’m afraid some kind of calamity
has already befallen us. I can confine my two sisters
to Three Immortals Island, but Gongming is my elder brother,
so I can’t just control him like that. If disaster is inevitable, I will be with you… I will give my all to help you. harming the Witch
and attacking the Taoisms. The Heavenly Court,
entrusted with the Tao of Heaven, ensures the stability and peace
of heaven and earth. Hereby, we issue this decree ordering all divisions
to pursue and capture Lu Ya, and bringing him to justice. Their move is just
to force me out of hiding. So I can no longer work in the shadows. The crafty Water God is using
the chance to recruit heavenly soldiers. In just a few days,
many cultivators have joined him. The Heavenly Court,
once disregarded by all, is now on the rise. I am ashamed for failing
to ease Your Highness’s troubles. The Demon has suffered
too many losses this time. To rise again, [Ten times of divination a day.]
we might need help [Only one is right.]
from that master. Once the subjugation decree is issued,
Lu Ya will surely react. We can take advantage of this. Ao Yi, take care of it later. Lu Ya defies the Tao of heaven and seeks to revive the Demon Court. As soon as you find his whereabouts, arrest him immediately
and bring him back. Mr. Lu Ya is in danger. I hope he can pull through. Darn it. Why would I say that? What should I do now? Why does this disaster strike without reason? Is this because the cycle of fate
has come around again, or is it due to the lack of our fortune? I must quickly seek
the help of that master. Ten times of divination a day.
Only one is right. Today’s chances are used up.
Please come back another day. Since you are waiting here for me,
why not look up? Have we met? Madam, you look troubled.
It seems you’re facing death. That’s why I’m here,
seeking your guidance, sir. I hope our old ties
can convince you to help me. Do I know you? Our clan is suffering greatly.
Will you truly not lend a hand? Your Highness. Please wait a moment. Let me finish cooking this dish.
There are two tables waiting. Sir, why are you working
as a cook in a tavern, instead of…? When I served the late emperor, I was known for my divination skills. So you think I’d be a fortune-teller,
living in seclusion here? But actually, my interests go
far beyond divination and observation. Please pardon me. Sir, since you show up, does it mean you are willing to help me? I thought Your Highness
was seeking a way to survive, but I didn’t expect you
to have such intentions. In that case, please return. Sir, are you suggesting
that I’m in mortal danger? A great calamity is imminent. The Water God is doing
everything possible to harm me, blocking the revival of the Demon Court. Please save me, sir. I saw that those clans refused
to be preyed upon by the Witch, so they gathered
at the top of Buzhou Mountain and established the Demon Court, to confront the Witch. But after overcoming the Witch, they began endless wars and enslavement. The fall of the Demon Court
was inevitable. Those who talk about reviving
the Demon Court are merely looking for a chance
to enslave others. Your Highness, please don’t dwell
on past matters. Countless demon soldiers have perished
in the Water God’s schemes. Now, the Heavenly Court
has issued a subjugation decree, threatening the Demons
with total annihilation. How can I stand by and do nothing? Please help me. Help the Demon. The Demon Court
cannot change its doomed fate. All nine of my children
have perished in the war. Now, only one remains. But this child will face
three life-threatening calamities. I hope you can save him, sir. I would be eternally grateful. Your Majesty saved my life. I will honor your trust without fail. Fine. After all, I still owe
Her Majesty a great debt. The Heavenly Court has been bullying us,
siding with the Witch and Taoisms. Despite our countless retreats
and endurance, all we got in return
was a subjugation decree. Today, I, Lu Ya,
the Crown Prince of the Demon Court, am issuing this decree. The Demon will no longer
follow the Heavenly Court’s orders. As if they had ever heeded
the Heavenly Court’s orders before. Water God, these demons are on the brink
of attacking us directly. When shall we mobilize against them? The demons are numerous and divided, but attacking now would only unite them. Have you considered the casualties
among our heavenly soldiers? If we sustain significant losses, even though
we can successfully suppress them, our weaknesses will expose. And if we are defeated, the authority of the Heavenly Court
will be utterly destroyed. I didn’t think it through. Please forgive me, Water God. But their defiance of the Heavenly Court
is also a defiance of the Tao of Heaven. As officers in the Heavenly Court, why not use the Tao of Heaven’s power to teach them a lesson? For instance,
the Thunder Punishment Hall can strike those culpable demons
with lightning to intimidate them. The Finance Division
can cause them financial troubles. As the overseer of the Wind Division, I can keep their gathering place plagued by constant gales and endless darkness. Being temporarily
in charge of the Seasons, I can make their habitats endure nightly blizzards
and daytime heat waves. As the custodian of Dusk and Sunset, I can write messages across the sky,
like “Demons are doomed” to shake their morale. Overseeing the Privy Deity Hall, I will ensure that whenever
a demon uses the toilet, it will overflow,
throwing them into chaos. That’s the best I can do. I’ll consider this a merit for you. However, disrupting the demons
relies on Yue Lao. I hope you can turn
the Demon Kings against each other, and hasten their internal chaos. Deputy Commander Bian,
it’s said you excel in this. Please impart your knowledge to Yue Lao. A friend of mine excels
at undermining alliances. He mentioned you should first bond with that guy
and speak kindly. If things go awry,
defend yourself with confidence. Master’s scheming is truly cunning. I deeply admire his strategy. What if the demons retaliate
against the Heavenly Court? They’ll be annihilated instantly with no trace left. Changshou must be fully prepared. Notify the four seas, ready the troops, and be prepared to support
the Heavenly Court at any moment. – Yes!
– Yes! Stay focused, everyone.
We’re here to take down the demons and support the Water God
with all we’ve got! [Big Brother] You’ve stripped me of my dignity
as a male demon. Now, I’ll strip you of your life. [The Demon is doomed.
Evil deeds bring their own end.] [Fighting the Heavenly Court
leads to death.] In just six months, the Heavenly Court has already sown
discord among the demons. Sir, when will we attack? When the Water God thinks he’s cornered the demons and Your Highness. You think someone wise is backing Lu Ya? The Heavenly Court’s rise is inevitable.
It’ll purge the demons soon or later. Lu Ya’s call to defy, rallying Demon Kings, is just hastening the conflict. Yet he remains inactive. Defying orders but not openly rebelling, he’s keeping a way out for himself. Given Lu Ya’s usual tactics, he wouldn’t come up
with such a tactical plan. So, there must be a wise figure among the demons
who can see the bigger picture, trying to protect Lu Ya. Great Mage, you know the major events
of the primordial world. Do you know if any powerful demons
from the Demon Court are still around? After the Demon Court fell, the powerful demons scattered, some hiding
deep in the Northern Continent, some venturing
beyond the primordial world. Their fates are unknown. If there’s anyone still alive, it must be him, one of the top ten Demon Generals, Bai Ze. The strategist highly regarded
by the two Demon Monarchs? His innate power
is to avoid danger and seek fortune. I’ve fought him twice. Each time,
just as I thought of killing him, he escaped. He is the only one
among the top ten Demon Generals who survived
the Great War of Witches and Demons. Bai Ze will surely trouble
the Heavenly Court. Could you please take him out? Dealing with him is tricky. I’ll need more time. We could use Bai Ze’s power
to reverse the odds, and lure him into a trap. The solution is in this pouch. Only open it in a dire situation. Your Highness,
this is my last help for you. Sir, are you leaving? The Water God has likely noticed me. If I don’t go now, it will be too late. Please heed my advice,
do not oppose the Water God. The Jade Emperor fears you
as the Demon Court Prince, but the Water God’s target has always been Lu Ya. What’s the difference? I bear no deep grudge against him, so why does he act this way? The Water God remains a mystery to me. When there were only
a few Sea God Temples, I couldn’t see through his background. He has always been vigilant
and never let his guard down. His thoroughness is truly terrifying. There’s more to it. He is patient and vengeful. You and Jingchan collaborated
to break the sea eye. Then Jingchan fell on the Ling Mountain, and you were injured
on the Demon Ascension Mountain. Dizang spread rumors about Taoisms, and the Water God and the Great Mage
forced Xifang Taoism to admit fault. Wasn’t it the Great Mage
who orchestrated it? Are you exaggerating
about his capabilities? I can only tell you his cultivation
hasn’t exceeded 500 years. How is that possible? His talent and schemes are beyond us. Besides, he has no shame. He treats treasures as trivial. What is most admirable is his loyalty
even in the face of profit. Though I’ve never met him, it feels like I’ve known him
for a long time. Can’t we just get rid of him? If you act against him,
you’ll first confront, not Sage Taiqing’s Taiji Diagram, nor Tongtian Master’s Qinping Sword, but the Taoist Ancestor’s
Celestial Divine Thunder. Please don’t ask more, Your Highness. I don’t dare get involved with him. Follow the instructions in the pouch, and there might be a way out. The Demon Court is long gone. Please let it go and move on. I’ve paid my dues. We likely won’t see
each other much anymore. Take care, Your Highness. Bai Ze! This ancient Demon General’s ability
to foresee danger is truly impressive. Just as the Great Mage set out
to track his whereabouts, he came to the Duxian Sect. He must die. Water God, please have mercy! That’s Bai Ze’s message. How cunning. Water God, please have mercy! Water God, please have mercy! [To Water God] Bai Ze’s ability to foresee danger
is indeed impressive. Just as the Great Mage began to probe,
a plea for mercy arrived. Isn’t this letter threatening you
with your background? I believe he’s genuinely
pleading for mercy. His threat held no real power. If he exposes our background, we’ll move to Tushita Palace,
where Taishang Laojun is nearby. But my apprehension towards him
will turn into hatred. Thus, he will seal his own fate. If he’s begging for mercy,
why didn’t he just come to you? He was too scared. He knew that I would kill him. Sending a letter to beg for mercy
was just to show his stance. He must have a backup plan. If my guess is right, the Great Mage will
bring back another jade. Changshou, you were right. Care to guess what’s written on it? He wants to test my skills
and demonstrate his own. He’s making a bet with me. If he wins,
he’ll submit to our judgment. If he loses, we must let him go. You even guessed the terms of the bet. But this wager
might not be in our favor. Bai Ze is hiding in the safest place
in the primordial world. We need to find him
within two quarters of an hour to win. If we count from
when we received the jade, there’s only one quarter left. The safest place, huh? The scan of the primordial world map
is completed. There are about 126 safe locations
for him. Luckily, with the Great Mage’s help, we’ve already eliminated 50 of them. I’ve had the papermen
to search the remaining locations. Changshou, we’re running out of time. Why did it freeze
at such a critical moment? Changshou, if we fail to pinpoint
the location soon, it’ll be too late. Ling’e, Great Mage, you two choose. What? Us? Hurry up and choose. Great Mage,
follow Ling’e’s lead. Go there. Follow my lead? The Water God’s mind
operates on the tenth level, while ordinary wise beings
think on the fifth. I should be competing with him
on those higher levels, but I choose to stay on the fifth. Only by thinking outside the box
can I find the safest place. Changshou. Is this the Demon General Bai Ze? What a stroke of luck. You are… Great Mage, please finish him. I suppose he’d rather die than yield
as one of the rare noble beings. Why not kill him and grant his wish
to die with the Demon Court? That’s not appropriate. He carries no sins and is known as an auspicious beast. Great Mage, let’s hear
what he has to say. Maybe he is willing
to atone for his actions. Who said I would rather die than yield? I wanted to reveal myself to surrender. Then, why did you meddle
in the Demon Court’s affairs? Water God seeks to eliminate
any threats to the Heavenly Court, so he won’t show mercy
to a Demon Court member like me. I have no such grand ambitions. If you had no ambitions,
why would you align with Jie Taoism? It was an accident. Then why did you
establish the Sea God Sect and befriend Ao Yi,
the East Sea’s second prince? That was also an accident. What about Demon Ascension Mountain?
You destroyed 100,000 demon soldiers. Another accident. I was actually saving the Witch. You… What is your true goal? In such a dangerous world, isn’t just surviving hard enough? What more ambition do I need? Demon Monarch Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi
used to rule the Demon Court together. Don’t you want to reach
the heights they achieved? [No grand ambitions] I wasted my efforts setting up this bet. I intended to assist a wise ruler. But I never expected you to be so unambitious. My friend, times have changed. His primordial spirit is already sealed. I’ll leave his body to you. [Big Brother] Changshou, how did you find him? And why did you end up taking my advice? I’m curious too. It’s simple. Luck. Bai Ze had been setting this up
for a long time. No matter what choices I made, he had already anticipated them. So, I left the final decision
to you and the Great Mage. The Great Mage didn’t think much
and was just playing around. So, I put his choice
as the second option. You’re smart but not thorough. Your answer had a 30% chance
of leading to Bai Ze’s hiding place. Thirty percent? That’s not like you. So, it was all about luck this time. [Luck] Luck. Water God’s wisdom
is beyond ordinary comprehension. A confrontation with me
can’t rely on luck alone. How did he find me after all? Changshou, Mr. Bai Ze,
please enjoy your meal. Changshou, we’ve placed Bai Ze
on Hechi Peak. Isn’t that too close to Xiaoqiong Peak? The Great Mage spared
his life on purpose. I can’t kill him,
but I can’t release him either. Faced with such a dangerous being, we’d better keep him
neither too close nor too far away and seize the chance to win him over. Sir, please. The dishes lack
flavor and visual appeal, and the aroma is overwhelming. [Flavor. Visual appeal. Aroma] Yet, this all reflects the girl’s
genuine devotion to her senior. Bai Ze truly lives up to his reputation
as a gourmet. Why waste time as a Demon General? He should be a food critic. You seem to enjoy assisting wise rulers. If I could assist another wise ruler
and achieve great things, then retire in glory, leaving my name renowned in the world,
it would be… Now, it’s just wishful thinking. Now that the Heavenly Court
is newly established, there is much to be done. Though the Demon Court stirred chaos,
it remains under our control. Sir, your grand plans will inevitably lead to bloodshed. The path to power is always like this. But that’s not what I desire. A peaceful Heavenly Court
and a war-free primordial world are my grand plans. If you are willing to assist me, your name will also be remembered. This fish would taste even better
if it were a bit more charred. Changshou, you really tricked Bai Ze. He’s starting to hesitate. Tricked? It’s the first step to win Bai Ze over,
painting a rosy picture. Who says reaching the pinnacle of power
is the only grand plan? Hoping for world peace can also be one. What’s the second step then? The second step to win Bai Ze over
is to build a connection. Since he likes gourmet food,
we should start with that. High-quality ingredients
often require only simple cooking. This Grilled Fish from Bai Ze
is a renowned dish of the Demon Court. Since we’re discussing the Demon,
let’s talk about the Demon Court. Sir, do you think
it could have been saved back then? It could have been. I think it was beyond saving. Sir, please. The problem back then was disunity. To save it, we needed… That’s not it. The Witch only enjoyed hunting
and didn’t see the Demon as enemies. The union of many clans
formed today’s Demon. There was no shared kinship. How can I be accused of betrayal? As a gardener,
you enjoy cultivating flowers and watching them bloom. You must also endure the sorrow
when they wither and fall. Absolutely splendid! Water God, you truly understand me. I’m getting curious. With your wisdom, did you really find me
by luck back then? Sir, what other methods
do you think I could have used? Changshou, what’s the third step
in winning over Bai Ze? There isn’t one. Or rather, it is a test, a challenge Bai Ze must face himself. Sir, you… Well done. You claimed it was luck
that led you to me. Only now do I understand that my instinct to seek fortune
and avoid calamity is closely tied to the Tao of Heaven. You thought if you didn’t find me, you’d kill me in our next encounter. The Tao of Heaven
deemed this encounter fortunate because I could live, and the next, a calamity,
because I would be doomed to die. Thus, it guided me
to the place you chose. You called it luck to save
my last shred of dignity. I yield, truly. Water God,
I offer you my deepest respect. Henceforth, I will serve you faithfully
without hesitation. Mr. Bai, please rise. [Bai Ze, beast form] Li Changshou of Xiaoqiong Peak,
you have a visitor. This is the Sect Master’s Token. This will allow you to bring your visitors to the sect
as you please. Thanks for your kindness, Sect Master. Sorry for dropping by unannounced. Not at all. The impending catastrophe makes every action critical. I’m worried. That’s why I came to see you. Are you concerned Bai Ze’s surrender to me is actually a plot by the Demon Court? Bai Ze, once the ancient Demon General who even fought
against the Demon Master Peng, has formidable abilities
to foresee calamities. He wouldn’t come to you
without a reason. We share the same concerns. That’s why the Great Mage
has restrained his primordial spirit. After conversations, Bai Ze ccme to see me as a confidant. With Senior Xuandu’s help, you must have had a plan. I don’t need to worry. I didn’t realize
you cared so much about me. I should’ve known you’d joke around. I’ll be on my way then. It was my mistake. Please wait. Let me apologize. I was just joking. Since I’m here,
I should meet your master to show proper respect. Master, Immortal Yunxiao is my close friend. She came to visit us. Right. Immortal Yunxiao, Changshou has mentioned you many times. Please. Why has Immortal Yunxiao
suddenly arrived? And why did Changshou
take her to see the Master? Am I going to lose everything so soon? Though She’s a renowned master
of the Three Sects of Taoism and one of the most powerful beings
in the world, I can’t just hand over Changshou. Besides, I have been his loyal companion
for so many years. When it comes to the place
I hold in Changshou’s heart, I don’t think I would lose
to Immortal Yunxiao. Is this your junior sister? Ling’e, mind your manners. Greetings, Ms. Yunxiao. No need for formalities. Though I seem to be much older than you, you can just call me Yunxiao,
just like my sisters Qiongxiao and Bixiao from Three Immortals Island. Seriously? Are we really that close? That feels rather presumptuous. Although I know Immortal Yunxiao
meant no offense, I still feel this can’t go any further. May I have a word with Ling’e alone? Well… Why are you so confident about leaving Ling’e alone
with Immortal Yunxiao? Aren’t you worried
something might go wrong? The papermen system
and defense formations are fully set up. They should be safe. Probably. Oh no, Immortal Yunxiao has severed
my connection with the paperman. Immortal Yunxiao brought me alone for a boat ride, cloaking us in a thick fog
to ensure privacy. What could she possibly want? With her strength, if she ended me here, Changshou wouldn’t be able to save me. She also cut off Changshou’s connection
to the paperman. Am I really doomed? [Danger] Are you afraid, Ling’e? I mean no harm. I came today just to see you. You wished to see me? My sisters on Three Immortals Island
often say that human men
are the most affectionate, but few are trustworthy. So, I came to the mortal realm seeking answers about love and fate, but perhaps I was mistaken. This conversation has taken
an unexpected turn. Shouldn’t she first assert herself, and then make me back off? Why this sudden self-reflection? What did you do wrong? Master Tongtian warned that I would face a great catastrophe. I can’t bear to drag Changshou into it. After our last meeting, I realized Generals, I’ll leave the battlefield to you. Changshou’s rapid progress
in cultivation is truly astonishing. Lightning Escape.
Heaven and Earth Ruler’s strike. True Flames of the Sun. This ruler is upgraded in Taiqing’s
Purple Gold Eight Trigrams Furnace. I also infused the essence
of the virtue of water in it. The results seem pretty good. That’s Abyss Sword, the weapon
of the Shuras! Be careful, Water God! What a familiar aura of the Blood Sea. To wield the Abyss Sword at this level, the wielder must be
the descendant of Shura, the Raksasi. Shuras again. [Raksasi of the Shuras] Ms. Wen, I’ve rescued Lu Ya. I told you many times not to call me like that. Call me Your Lady. Got it, Ms. Wen. The Twin Sages of Xifang have foreseen Lu Ya’s connection to the Catastrophe and instructed me to save him. Water God, do not pursue him, or you’ll risk alarming the Sages. They predicted Lu Ya
had a connection to the Catastrophe. How much do they know, and what are they plotting through him? Prince Lu Ya, I sent Wenjing and Raksasi to save you from Water God’s
Heaven and Earth Ruler. This shows the sincerity
of Xifang Taoism. Why don’t you consider our offer? Sincerity? Wenjing slaughtered countless demons, forcing me to issue a kill order
against her. Taoist Bailian,
should you eliminate Wenjing, your sincerity will be proven. Prince Lu Ya,
bite the hand that saves you, huh? Elder Bailian, Lu Ya holds deep grudges
against our sect. What should we do? The once-proud Prince of the Demons
is now nothing more than a stray dog. Water God, are you injured? Lu Ya has fled in defeat. Anyone unwilling to die should surrender immediately. Or the Heavenly Court
won’t show any mercy! Mercy, please! When war breaks out,
countless lives are lost. We are grateful to you for coming here to mediate. We’re actually descendants
of ancient demons. We came with a personal motive. Sadly, we failed to persuade Lu Ya. Forget it. Now that this is settled, we’ll return
to the Mother Goddess Palace. Water God, do you have something
for the Mother Goddess? Well… Is Mother Nyuwa
waiting for the update? I’ve been busy dealing with
Northern Continent affairs. Once everything is in order, I’ll visit the palace in person. Mother Goddess truly favors
the Water God. The Tao of Heaven gives us merits. With this one, my merit golden effigy
is nearly complete. [Thank you for your efforts
in upholding the Tao of Heaven] [Total merit income of this month] [Merit income receivable]
[Actual merit income] [Keep this IOU] Unbelievable. [An empty promise] Recently, I’ve sensed ominous signs. I found dark clouds
shrouding the primordial world. It seems the catastrophe
is truly upon us. Name List Catastrophe… Wasn’t it triggered
when the Jade Emperor was humiliated by the disciples
of the Three Sects and went to Zixiao Palace to complain? Why is Bai Ze sensing it already? Is it coming early? Changshou, I’m heading to the Heavenly Court
to report. Why now? Master, why go personally? I can handle it for you. That’s not how it works. Matters of the Heavenly Court
should follow proper protocol. Am I not even allowed
to leave the mountain gate anymore? The Heavenly Court
is overwhelmed right now. Why not wait a bit? You’re an officer of the Heavenly Court, and as your master,
I should set a good example too. Changshou. Yes. I’ve broken through
to the Real Immortal Realm. You and Ling’e have grown up. I finally have some time to relax and explore the primordial world. After reporting, I plan
to visit the Southern Continent. I brought three papermen of yours. The return won’t take
more than half a day. [Big Brother] Changshou, the last time I went down
the mountain to practice, I sought out Wuzhuang Temple, owned by Immortal Zhenyuan,
the ancestor of earth immortals. Unfortunately,
I wasn’t yet an immortal and couldn’t enter. Wuzhuang Temple? [Wuzhuang Temple]
The one where Great Sage Sun stole the ginseng fruit? Are you trying to get one for Master? It’s said a single fruit can add 47,000 years of life
to a cultivator. I just want to help Master and our Xiaoqiong Peak. Fine, just go ahead. But it’s a dangerous time. Take two Golden Immortal Realm
papermen with you for protection. Mr. Bai, can you check
for signs of the Catastrophe? I can’t sense anything. This has never happened before. Even Bai Ze can’t detect it? Great Mage, I need to ask
about the catastrophe. Great Mage? Hello? Why can’t I reach him? [Xuandu City is facing upheaval.
I may return in a century.] Xuandu City lies
far beyond the Five Continents. If the primordial world is in turmoil, the Great Mage might not
return in time. Why did he have to go there
at this critical moment? It seems I’ll have to
strengthen defenses by myself. Master has entered
the Southern Heavenly Gates. [Wuzhuang Temple]
Ling’e also entered Wuzhuang Temple. All is well. I’ll use my papermen
to survey the primordial world. Sacred Bird, please bless us. The Shang Kingdom is steadily rising
as planned. Where exactly
will the Catastrophe strike? With the catastrophe approaching, I’ve warned my brother and sisters
to avoid going out. Under the Catastrophe,
everything is unpredictable. You may use this paperman
to consult me anytime. You seem troubled. Has something happened? Nothing has happened,
and that’s why I’m more anxious. Elder Bailian, news just arrived. Xuandu is in turmoil, and the Great Mage
has gone to stabilize it. What a perfect opportunity. With him gone, the Water God
will be much easier to deal with. After all, he’s merely a third-rank god. The real support for Long Ji
in managing the Heavenly Court is that second-rank god. If we subdue Dong Mugong and use him
to threaten the Heavenly Court, Xifang Taoism will gain the upper hand. We’ll have nothing to fear. Bad news! Lu Ya just slipped out
from the back of the cave. No need to pursue him. This time, Lu Ya will be the instrument of the Heavenly Court’s humbling. Mugong, since you’re busy,
I’ll return on my own. We’re all close friends
with the Water God. There’s no need for formality,
Taoist Qi Yuan. Something’s happened to Master! The heavens are in chaos. When the heavens are in chaos,
the catastrophe looms. Things prosper then decline.
This is the law of the heavens. This catastrophe
is destined for the Taoism sects. [Yuanshi Tianzun, Chan Taoism] You shall follow
the will of the heavens. – Yes, Master.
– Yes, Master. [Tongtian Master, Jie Taoism]
The rise and fall of Taoism’s fortunes will mostly weigh upon us Jie Taoism. All great catastrophes begin with slaughter. Master is in trouble. How did this happen? Paperman No. 2,
evacuate Master and Mugong. Water Escape. Why can’t I use the escape techniques? This red light can seal
Heaven and Earth. Unexpectedly, the Water God
has an incarnation here. What a pleasant surprise. Enhanced Speed Talisman. Activate. Without escape techniques, the Speed Talisman alone
won’t get us far. There’s a great demon. They’re gone. The Water God’s unusual anxiety has driven him
to the Northern Continent personally. The heavens are in chaos,
and Lu Ya has the Demon Emperor’s Seal. He is going to be in trouble. I suppose his incarnation should be kneeling
before Sage Taiqing’s portrait. However, even though Sage Taiqing
favors the Water God, and he just needs kneel
at Taiqing Temple to become the Sage’s direct disciple, he couldn’t abandon
his master who raised him. If today’s calamity
is Qi Yuan’s destiny, Sage Taiqing will not intervene. Lu Ya is targeting Mugong, probably to coerce
the Heavenly Court into submission. But Master is just a Turbid Immortal. What to do? There’s no time to summon
troops from the Dragon Palaces. Great Mage. Sage Taiqing hasn’t responded. Yunxiao. The Catastrophe is upon us. Should I let her get involved now? Stay calm. Stay calm. Lu Ya wants to use Mugong
as leverage, so he won’t kill him. Paperman No. 2 can’t move,
but there’s still an aura left. Following it, I’ll find Master. Tiger Demon, thank you for your help today. Your Highness, you’re too kind. But since we’ve captured Dong Mugong, shouldn’t we return to our base? Returning now would expose us. It’s better to sneak
into the Northern Continent. The Demon Emperor’s Seal? Even though the great demons
of Northern Continent have been separated
from the Demon Court for years, with this seal, they will obey me. They’re in the Northern Continent. Illusory are all phenomena.
Let the cosmos open the way. Master. Another Water God incarnation. Northern Continent demons, listen up. By the Demon Emperor’s Seal,
I command you, stop this person at any cost. With the Seal activated, these great demons
are charging forward furiously. Mr. Tower, please help me out. Coming! Oh no. Water God, watch out. That is… Even the Tao of Heaven
is getting involved. [Big Brother] No, something’s off. Wasn’t I supposed to save Master? Why am I being held back
by these demons? What memory is this from? Why have I never seen it before? The Great Tao encompasses all, yet Heaven leaves one part undefined. He is dead. The Tao of Heaven
has erased his existence. Presenting my Tao here today, I pray that the heavens will descend
the Golden Immortal Calamity. Karma has its own way. Seal. Has the Tao of Heaven
acted against me long ago? It’s targeting me, influencing my thoughts and emotions. As I suspected. If so… [Xiaoqiong Peak] Let my mind and spirit unite. Leaving only myself, focused within. The Tao endures forever. Serene and clear. Here’s my trump card. Clear and Serene Taoist Heart. Heaven and Earth Shift. The Water God sensed the change,
but a Duxian Sect disciple arrived. And this ruler. The Duxian Sect disciple, the Water God,
and the Junior Mage of Xuandu turn out to be the same person. I can only tell you his cultivation
hasn’t exceeded 500 years. I, the mighty Crown Prince
of the Demon Court, have been reduced to this state
by you, a mere human disciple. Since the fall of the Demon Court,
I’ve already lost everything. Even if I die today,
I’ll take you down with me! Demon Emperor’s Seal, heed my command. With the essence of the Golden Crow,
illuminate the heavens. Rend the skies
and break the cycles of dawn and dusk! Lu Ya, stop! Master! Changshou, danger! Don’t come over! ♪Legends say he is
one of stars in the Milky Way♪ ♪Even after transcending time,
he chose to stay♪ ♪In the dark, he’s gentle♪ ♪Guarding his regrets♪ ♪The old rocking chair
never stops creaking♪ ♪As wind sweeps away leaves and flowers♪ ♪The neighbor’s child

for tens of thousands of years, until the day he reunites
with Martial Aunt Wan’s reincarnation. ♪Deep or hoarse♪ ♪He’s expressing his longing♪ I, Jiu Yushi, greet the Sect Master. [Jiu Yushi from Duxian Sect] Even after countless cycles, destiny cannot be changed. ♪Considering how much

How about “Free Spirit”? Or maybe “Crane in the Clouds.” The white crane among the clouds. Haven’t you always dreamed
of riding a crane and flying away? Changshou, today, you’re one of members
of the Duxian Sect. I hope you practice diligently, strive for eternal life… and achieve the essence of the Tao. You killed him! So what? You killed him! You killed him! How are they related? Lu Ya. Our past unrelenting conflicts were aroused by clashing positions, competing interests, and my desire
to prevent potential threats. But today, I am… your catastrophe! Master, I haven’t told you what I’ve been cultivating. Let everything maintain balance. My cultivation is fading. He balanced it out. Not just my cultivation,
but my emotions too. The sage’s pressure? You meddled with fate, undermining our chances
for great prosperity. Perish. Get lost. Senior Taiqing, forgive me. Senior Taiqing. Don’t bother to plead for him. Lu Ya’s fate is tied to the catastrophe. It can’t be changed. Master. Aren’t you always seeking stability? You should know that defying fate will only drag you and everyone involved into future consequences. Then I’ll take
Lu Ya’s calamity upon myself and face it for him. In exchange, the Tao of Heaven shouldn’t
interfere with his life or death. Clear and Serene Taoist Heart, shatter! No, I can’t just give up. I can figure out a way to save him. The True Flames of the Sun were fierce, but they only burned for a moment. Perhaps master’s soul fragments remain. No, I need something more. Merit. Nezha rebuilt his body with merit
after cutting his bones and flesh. I’ll give all my merit if it brings Master back. No! Don’t! Master! Master! Do you need help? I specialize in refining human essence and bestowing extraordinary talent. Five hundred. Your master is dead. The reborn spirit
is none of your concern. Is that OK? Yes. Send it to the Reincarnation Disk
for nourishment. I hardly ever go out. But why do I still have to work? So miserable. Condolences on your loss. That always means there’s less of me. I’m so pathetic. I appreciate it. [Big Brother] Mr. Zhao Gongming
dropped him off and left. Is Mugong okay? Did you ask the Water God to come over? I tried many times but couldn’t see him. I heard Mugong
was ambushed by the demons. Could the Water God be… Father and mother haven’t returned
from their ordeal, Mugong is severely injured
and unconscious, and Master is missing. But the Heavenly Court
must maintain order. Send out the order. The five Heavenly Gates are to be placed
under heavy guard. Any demons who attack will be killed. – Understood.
– Understood. This is not a long-term solution. Can General Ao Yi find Master? The divine statue hasn’t responded. Changshou must be in trouble. Maybe Taoist Ling’e knows something. He’s not here. When Mr. Bai brought me back, he said Changshou entrusted him
with this to protect Xiaoqiong Peak. Sage Taiqing’s essence. This is one of the innate flags
that can reverse the five elements. The Banner of Groundless Flame. With Sage Taiqing’s treasure
as evidence, I think Changshou should be safe. That’s good. Changshou’s absence is fueling rumors and potential unrest in the Heavenly Court. Your Highness, the demons have attacked
and killed Heavenly Court officials. We must send troops
to maintain our authority. Mugong’s injuries are still unexplained. Sending troops now could be counterproductive. In the battle of the Northern Continent, the demons suffered heavy losses. His disappearance
might be related to this. Your Highness, sending troops against the demons
upholds our authority and pressures them to reveal the Water God’s whereabouts. Without masters in the Heavenly Court, a great war could have
unpredictable consequences. But if, as Immortal Fuyuan said… The Water God is fine.
There’s no need to worry. Bian Zhuang, Bai Ze is a remnant
of the Demon Court. How could you let him in? He’s the Water God’s mount and holds his artifact. I dared not stop him. Where is the Water God? He entered an ancient ruin and was trapped inside,
comprehending divine powers. He gave me the Six-turn Golden Pill
to help Mugong recover. He also left a message, please don’t rashly wage war
against the demons, just stand guard. Understood. Mugong’s location leak
remains undiscovered. We need to stabilize the Heavenly Court and complete Sage Taiqing’s mission. What divine powers? This is just an excuse to prevent chaos
in the Heavenly Court. Before I fainted, I saw the Water God fighting dozens of demons to save me. He finally fell from the sky. Your Highness,
he must be severely injured and hiding to heal. Master… How dare the demons insult us like this! I… Your Highness, the Water God hopes
for stability in the Heavenly Court. We must honor his wishes. All causes and effects were set at the beginning
of the Catastrophe. Can Master be reincarnated? That’s good. It doesn’t matter
if he becomes a genius. The flying bear? Isn’t that Jiang Ziya? Qiyuan, the source of the Qi state. married and withdrew from the world
and finally found fulfillment. Now, it’s time to return
to the Heavenly Court. Why is it only you here?
Where’s Minister Changgeng? Your Majesty, I called upon
the Tao of Heaven to awaken you because the demons have gone too far,
attempting to kill me. The Water God, trying to save me,
was surrounded by ancient demons, gravely wounded, and near died. He has been missing for twelve years. That was why I… Twelve years? Why did you wait until now? Gather the heavenly soldiers. If anything happens to Changgeng, I swear I will take down
every last ancient demon. Immortal Yunxiao has depleted
too much spirit energy and is now in seclusion to recuperate. Rest assured, Water God. If you choose to retreat now, I can ensure
you’ll survive the catastrophe. That would be too risky. Let’s proceed according to the plan. Hurry, His Majesty is about to deploy.
We’ll be too late if we wait. By His Majesty’s order, all divisions
of the Heavenly Court, heed the command. Assemble and head to the Heavenly Gates. Taishang Laojun left a message
before his travels? Laojun mentioned that the Water God
was severely wounded back then, with his cultivation nearly collapsing. He is now recovering
on Three Immortals Island. With Immortal Yunxiao
and other treasures protecting him, his life is secure. Your Majesty need not worry. He’s safe. Any other words? If Your Majesty insists on waging war
against the demons, please remember the Heavenly Court’s
fragile state. With Mugong being mistreated, how can I turn a blind eye? – Your Majesty, please think it over.
– Your Majesty, please think it over. Fine, I will follow Laojun’s advice and summon the officials to discuss
and plan before taking action. Does this count as causing trouble? Don’t worry. Before he left, Laojun said
that the Water God’s words were final. We just need to follow orders. The Northern Continent demons’ plot
will not be forgiven. I’m launching the attack today.
Any suggestions? Your Majesty,
the Heavenly Court is still developing. We have enough troops, but we’re short
on experienced warriors. The Northern Continent
is filled with ancient demons, and without skilled reinforcements, victory will be hard to come by. Minister Fuyuan’s strategy is to restate
what is already well-known, huh? Your Majesty, I propose summoning
Taoist experts for assistance in the name of the Heavenly Court. I am willing to go to Chan Taoism
for their aid. This communication jade
is from the Water God for you. The matters mentioned in the jade
will unfold today, and will surely impact
the entire primordial world. Please proceed with caution. Just as he predicted in the letter. Even the one who offered the advice
and the content are exactly the same. But the pressing matter is… I am also willing to seek assistance
from Jie Taoism. Very well. Deliver my order. The army shall move out at once
to encircle the Northern Continent. Once the Taoist experts arrive, we will strike and wipe out the demons,
asserting the Heavenly Court’s power. – Yes, Your Majesty.
– Yes, Your Majesty. March out. [Big Brother] Please wait.
We are disciples of Jie Taoism. We heard the Heavenly Court sent someone
to Golden Turtle Island for support, so we came to meet. Are you here to offer support? Ever since the last calamity struck, Master has foreseen
a catastrophe looming, and now, under Senior Duobao’s orders,
we’re forbidden to leave. So, unfortunately, we can’t assist. Please return. As he expected. Before entering Golden Turtle Island, Mugong will be stopped by those
claiming to be Jie Taoism immortals. Meanwhile, the immortal
seeking aid at Yuxu Palace will act arrogantly and boss around the Sage’s disciples. I’m an officer of the Heavenly Court. By the Jade Emperor’s command, you’re to slay demons
in the Northern Continent. Follow me now. Listen to that tone. Sounds like
we’re the ones asking for help. Guess nothing’s surprising
when you’ve seen it all. If you’re so confident,
why come here for help? Leave. Since you knew the Heavenly Court’s plea
would be rejected, why not… The catastrophe was inevitable, and nothing could stop it. Though my heart is with Taoism
and the Heavenly Court, I must make choices. Only then can I alter fate
before the catastrophe arrives. Elder Bailian, Dong Mugong
is at Ling Mountain’s base. Neither Chan Taoism nor Jie Taoism
aided the Heavenly Court. What do we do with him? He… Why did he leave? Elder Bailian, should we chase him? – I’ve failed you, Your Majesty.
– I’ve failed you, Your Majesty. Chan Taoism, Jie Taoism, Xifang Taoism.
All of them have…? I can’t believe this. Do we have to sacrifice the soldiers to those ancient demons? Retreat. The Jade Emperor has gone
to the Highest Heaven, where Zixiao Palace is located. He’s meeting the Taoist Ancestor. Did you plan this too? Though the Tao of Heaven used me
to appoint Jiang Ziya as the one to confer deities, Lu Ya’s death proved
its plan isn’t unchangeable. Since Mugong bowed before Cloud Palace, everything has been
under the Tao of Heaven’s control. His Majesty was enraged
and raised an army to vanquish demons. Immortal Fuyuan, who suggested
seeking help from the Taoism sects, was exposed by Bai Ze as the one
who leaked Mugong’s whereabouts. His visit to Chan Taoism
would surely stir up trouble. And whoever visited Jie Taoism
would face obstacles. Not only did I fail to bring back
the Sage’s disciples from Chan Taoism, but I was mocked and driven out of Yuxu Palace. The disciples of Jie Taoism
were ordered not to leave. As for Xifang Taoism, they… I couldn’t even get past
the gates of Ling Mountain. The Tao of Heaven intends
to drag Taoism into the catastrophe, [Name List Catastrophe]
sacrificing enough disciples to assert its power. Under this catastrophe, Chan and Jie Taoism suffer the most, making them the most deeply entangled. Human Taoism, though involved,
has no casualties and is least entangled. Their situation mirrors Xifang Taoism,
which remains outside the catastrophe. This shows
Chan and Jie Taoism are already doomed. Rather than resist,
we may as well draw them in, turning the tide to create
an opportunity for change. If Mugong goes to Ling Mountain
but doesn’t enter, it will redirect the Jade Emperor’s fury
toward Xifang Taoism, dragging them into the catastrophe
while leaving Human Taoism untouched. To the Tao of Heaven, Human Taoism
becomes a variable in the catastrophe, but Xifang Taoism fills the void. Everything shifts, yet stays unchanged. Taoist Ancestor, you established
the Heavenly Court to bring stability to the world
and protect all beings. Yet now, I can’t even command
the Sages’ disciples. How can I claim to protect anyone? I hereby tender my resignation
as Jade Emperor. I beg for your approval. The catastrophe is meant to strengthen
the Heavenly Court and fill the deity vacancies. The casualties under its course
are predetermined, and I won’t interfere. Since the Tao of Heaven
has watched long enough, surely it’s seen the changes I’ve made. I’ve simply replaced Human Taoism
with Xifang Taoism in the catastrophe. This shift in roles keeps
the flow undisturbed. This is what true balance is about. Since the Tao of Heaven
allows balance in the world, it must also approve of my Tao. Tao of Heaven, are you satisfied now? [Incarnation of the Tao of Heaven] The Heavenly Court upholds heaven’s will
and governs the primordial world. Yet now, disciples of Chan, Jie,
and Xifang Taoism disrespect the Heavenly Court
and defy fate, and are deserving of consequences. How have you been? Thank you for taking care of me over the past 12 years. The catastrophe is set.
It is called Name List Catastrophe. Master has already left to search
for a treasure to counter it. He told us to act cautiously. I failed to help Jie Taoism
escape the Name List Catastrophe. Everyone in our sect knows that Jie Taoism cannot
avoid this calamity. This is not something
you can finish alone. In the catastrophe, maybe we still have chances
to turn things around. Do you trust me? This disaster concerns
the Heavenly Court, and you are the Water God
of the Heavenly Court. I only worry that you will be caught
in a dilemma. If that day truly comes, I will risk my life to help you. Where are you heading towards? My junior sister still doesn’t know
about our master’s situation. Besides, it’s been twelve years. I should go back. I also had a brief encounter
with Taoist Qi Yuan, I wish to pay my respects to him. [The tomb of Master Qi Yuan] Changshou, you’ve made progress
in your cultivation, and Ling’e has grown up. Wan Jiangyu was reincarnated
as Jiu Yushi and joined Duxian Sect. She has great potential, so I took her as my disciple. Knowing all this would’ve brought him comfort. Don’t be too upset. From now on… Master, I will never let this slide. This time, I will fight
the Tao of Heaven to the end. Changshou, for us Qi cultivators, as long as our soul is still around,
we are not truly dead. Even though Master is no longer
the same person after his reincarnation, he still exists. He has just forgotten us and taken on a new identity. Maybe… Maybe after reincarnation, Master will no longer walk the path
of Turbid Immortality. His cultivation will surely go much smoother. Water God, are you really ready? Lu Ya is dead, but remnants
of the Demon Court still remain. Xifang Taoism’s schemes
are still in motion, and the Name List Catastrophe
is drawing closer. I can’t allow Xiaoqiong Peak
to wither away any longer. Mr. Bai, thank you. Greetings, Your Majesty. I’m Mu Qinghua. Good, you even dare
to act as my teacher. Li Changgeng, do you realize your crime? Oops, the Jade Emperor has found out
about everything, even my real surname. Xifang Taoism
was secretly stirring trouble. To ensure your safety, I had no choice but
to take desperate measures. I’ll settle this account with you later. Regarding the matter
of the Northern Continent, I sent envoys to request aid from
the three Taoisms, but they all refused. So I went to Zixiao Palace to seek
an audience with the Taoist Ancestor. But afterward, I felt something was off. I understand Xifang Taoism’s refusal, but why would
Chan and Jie Taoisms also decline? You have longstanding ties
with Immortal Huanglong and Immortal Yuding from Chan Taoism, and you’re even close
with Immortal Yunxiao from Jie Taoism. How could they…? Here’s the thing, Your Majesty. After I killed Lu Ya, I’ve been watched
by the Tao of Heaven’s incarnation. If I tried to hinder the catastrophe, my life would be at risk. I cannot stop the catastrophe
from descending, but I also care about both Taoism
and the Heavenly Court. So, I made my choice. Let’s hear it. Water God, come out. Let’s have a good talk. Immortal Taiyi is terrifying… That day, Immortal Fuyuan
came to Yuxu Palace, which was clearly to stir trouble. The Jade Emperor got furious after
hearing him and went to Zixiao Palace. Now Chan Taoism
has been caught in this mess. The Heavenly Court should
set higher standards for immortals. The Heavenly Court
is still in its early days. It’s inevitable that some
with ulterior motives have slipped in. Junior Taiyi, Master just instructed us to follow the natural course of the catastrophe. Why are you defending
the Heavenly Court? I think that Chan and Jie Taoisms
are destined to enter the catastrophe. [Big Brother] Could you elaborate? I’m not a good talker. As everyone knows, every era’s most prosperous race
will eventually face the catastrophe. In ancient times, it fell upon
the Dragons, Phoenixes, and Qilins. In the recent past,
it was the witches and demons. Now, it is the age of humans. The Three Sects of Taoism established
their teachings by guiding humans. The more they borrowed human fortune, the more they must repay
in the catastrophe. All three sects are the same. Jie Taoism has taken too much
human fortune to support other races. I fear they can’t escape this disaster. Jie Taoism is well aware of this. Chan and Jie Taoisms
entering the catastrophe is inevitable. Even without Immortal Fuyuan,
it’ll eventually come in another form. However, as little fortune
as Human Taoism borrowed, how did they escape unscathed? Xifang Taoism took none at all, but why did they get caught
in the catastrophe? That’s truly strange. Who are you to impersonate
my junior brother Yuding? Since when did Yuding have such insight? It’s just some thoughts. You spend all day figuring out
how to insult people and delay your own cultivation. Really? So the seemingly simple-minded Yuding
is actually sensible. My plan to sacrifice Xifang Taoism
in exchange for Human Taoism nearly got exposed by him. I’m still not steady enough. So, you pulled
Chan and Jie Taoisms into it, and dragged Xifang Taoism in through me to remove Human Taoism
from the catastrophe. It’s a brilliant plan. But what if the two Taoisms
hold you accountable for this? Your Majesty, Chan and Jie Taoisms know they are
too deep into the catastrophe. There is no escape. That’s why I dared to take this risk. Well done, Changgeng. This catastrophe is called Name List. Naturally, the Tao of Heaven seeks
to expand the Heavenly Court. When the Heavenly Court
prospers in the future, as long as I remain the leader, you shall have the second seat. Besides, once the catastrophe begins, I grant you the authority of oversight. Thank you, Your Majesty. There will be a meeting
at Zixiao Palace in 100 years. Will you accompany me
to meet the Taoist Ancestor? Of course, I shall follow. Those meant
to enter the catastrophe did not. Those who were not supposed to did. Sage Zhunti, it was my fault not
to handle the Heavenly Court’s visit to Ling Mountain properly. Please… Xu Puti, come in. [Xu Puti, Xifang Taoism]
Greetings, Master. You’ve been traveling for years and have made some progress. Now, there is an important task that concerns the great rise
of our Taoism. You mean travel to the West? Dizang, hand over your current task to Xu Puti. Sage Zhunti,
I have been planning this for years. How can I just… You’ve made no progress at all. Tell me the reason. Junior Dizang,
you’ve always been soft-hearted. If you can’t do it,
why not let me handle it? The life and death of the creatures of the myriad worlds
don’t even matter. After the Jade Emperor’s descension, he’s more human now. His words and actions
have gained some warmth. [Don’t panic]
It seems experiencing the mortal realm [Be steady]
deepens his understanding of suffering. Congratulations, Master Water God. Why? Mugong just received an imperial decree. Because you interfered with
His Majesty’s mortal tribulation, he was furious, so he ordered you to Moon Palace as
the instructor for 300 Chang’e fairies. What the heck? Teaching those Chang’e fairies
how to dance? They are all female. If words get out, what will Immortal Yunxiao think of me? Well played, Jade Emperor. First, you grant me
the authority of oversight, then assign me as a dance instructor. You’re clearly afraid I’ll favor
Jie Taoism during the catastrophe and are trying
to drive a wedge between us. Calling it “a convenient way
to save people in the catastrophe”? It’s just sweetening the deal
before smacking me down. Water God! If you’re heading to Moon Palace, take me with you! I’m your most loyal subordinate! Shut up, you pervert! – Congrats, Water God.
– Congrats, Water God. Mugong, why did you
blurt out everything? Now everyone knows
I’m going to Moon Palace. Forget uniting Chan and Jie Taoisms, I won’t even explain this
to Immortal Yunxiao! Kneel. Your Majesty,
please withdraw the decree! To march against the demons? Your Majesty,
the Heavenly Court’s lost prestige must be reclaimed with our own hands. I prepared three strategies
to crush the remnants of the Demon Court
with overwhelming force. Please don’t send me to Moon Palace. Very well. Hear my decree. Though Water God holds the rank
of a third-tier deity, from this day forward, he shall enjoy
the merits of a second-tier deity. He shall oversee all military affairs
of the Heavenly Court. The campaign against the demons
will be led by Minister Changgeng. This is
the Divine Sword of the Tao of Heaven. Take this sword, slay the demons, and protect all beings. Now I, Water God of the Heavenly Court, by order of the Jade Emperor,
have risen against you. If you are free of karmic hindrances,
then put down your weapons and leave. The Heavenly Court will not stop you. Don’t listen to his nonsense. He will kill us all. How could he just let us off? – Kill.- Kill. Is that so? – Mr. Bai Ze,
– Mr. Bai Ze. Greetings, Water God. The former Marshal of the Demon Court
is now my mount. Aren’t you all surrendering yet? I never thought
that Marshal Bai Ze would surrender. Why don’t we…? So what? Don’t forget that we still have fortune on our side. Fortune? How can there be His Highness’s scent? This is what you referred to? – Seal of the Demon Emperor!
– Seal of the Demon Emperor! Your Highness. Water God, how dare you! Do you think you can challenge
the Heavenly Court with what’s left of your fortune? Naive! If that’s the case, I will use the power
of the Tao of Heaven to strengthen our army. Today, I will exterminate
the demon race here. Kill! Balance of All Things. Minister Changgeng is so impressive. He is the best at scolding people scheming, and fighting, making me feel completely useless. The next incarnation
should be on the agenda. Mr. Bai, thank you for today. You’re welcome. But your way of balancing everything
is really powerful. It can equalize
the speed of a flying demon and the injuries of a dying demon
with those of others. What I used today
was only the first version. I still have one more card to use. Would you mind revealing it? If I risk everything
to ignite the spiritual power and prepare the Nine-turn Golden Pill, I’ll be able to equalize the age with the Great Powers. Then, will you..? It won’t increase my cultivation. But it will bring him to the stage
I was at when I was his age. But this move is no different
from dying together. Even with the Nine-turn Golden Pill,
I may not be able to save my spirit. It’s too much to risk. Impracticable. Shameless. This battle is a great success
and all soldiers should be rewarded. Minister Changgeng will be rewarded
with merits for his leading role. [Merits] Thank you, Your Majesty. This move defeated
the Demon Court remnants and distracted the Jade Emperor. Instructor of 300 Chang’e?
Not my business now. Don’t forget to take your place in Moon Palace
as soon as possible. Your Majesty. I’ve been slightly injured
in the battle. Can you allow me
to go there six months later? Since it’s a minor injury,
go there in a month. Three months? Two months. No more discussion. My arms hurt, and my legs can’t walk. If you don’t stop talking,
you’ll go tomorrow. Let’s return. [Big Brother] Mr. Bai, is there really no way
to change His Majesty’s mind? He is determined to sow discord
between you and Immortal Yunxiao. You better give up. Is there a possibility I am captured by the remnants
of the Demon Court on my way to Moon Palace? No. Heavenly Court is suddenly attacked
by Xifang Taoism? Even more impossible. Water God, perhaps you should consider how you’ll explain this
to Immortal Yunxiao. [Love Defense Program] Sage Taiqing’s essence. He’s given new instructions. Great Mage. [Entrance to Xuandu City]
Is this Xuandu City? Reversing yin and yang,
destroying the universe. [Go] I will do as I’m told. It’s not that I don’t want
to go to Moon Palace. It’s just
that I have other vital missions. Your Majesty. There’s trouble in Xuandu City,
and I was ordered to support them. But in that case, I’m afraid I won’t be able
to make it to Moon Palace in a month. Xuandu City is the only gateway between the primordial world
and the Chaos Sea. If anything happens here,
it will jeopardize the primordial world. Go there and leave the matter
of Moon Palace behind for now. Yes, Your Majesty. [Xundu City Exit] Water God. Immortal Yunxiao, Gongming, Mr. Duobao. You’re here! It’s a matter of the safety
of the primordial world. The Jie Taoism can’t just stand and see. This demon will possess you. Be careful. It seems that she hasn’t known
about the matter about Chang’e now. Great. That’s strange. Wasn’t there only one demon
that invaded the primordial world? Why are there so many? So lively. Those from Chan Taoism are here too. The demons are coming in force,
we need to fight against them together. You’re right. Chan and Jie Taoism are harmonious
when it counts! Mr. Kong Xuan? There’s a change in Xuandu City.
I’m here to help. Although Kong Xuan’s memory
has been altered by the Tao of Heaven. But it doesn’t seem
to have changed much. The corrected part should only be
about the Youqin Kingdom. Get over there. It’s fine Xu Puti has stolen the job
concerning Xifang Taoism’s revival. Master, why did you take the job
of killing the demons from beyond the boundaries? Master, why don’t you go there yourself? If I go there,
Water God will tear me apart. Look. They’ve brought out a pot. That’s the Vessel of Chaos,
even a Daluo Golden Immortal will be turned into a Golden Immortal
if he falls into it. Get over there! Otherwise,
Immortal Yunxiao will kill us both. The Three Sects are more than capable
of dealing with the demons. I didn’t realize that the marital uncles
of Xifang Taoism were so kind to send you two. Greetings, senior brothers and sisters. Just call us “Fellow Taoist”. We wouldn’t dare be called like that. Or you will say we have ties
with Xifang Taoism someday. [Xuandu City] [At the top
of the entire primordial world,] If we can’t kill the demons in time, to prevent the primordial world
from being infiltrated by the demons, Taoist Ancestor will probably raze
this place to the ground and destroy both the mortals and the outer-world demon. It’s you? Why? Can’t I come? Xuandu City is in danger. Who in the primordial world
can turn a blind eye? Can you repair the formation? Teach me, and I’ll learn it. Runes and treasures, activate. Suppress everything
and forever guard the city. They were drained
of their spiritual soul and energy. This place is close to Xuandu City, filled with mortals
and low-level Qi cultivators. They can’t resist
the outer-world demons. Corpses are everywhere,
but the demons are nowhere to be found. Water God, greetings. Do you have any insights? We stand on opposite sides. After several confrontations from afar, I hold you in high regard. Why don’t we compare and see who does better? What do you think? With Diting’s help, you are sure to win. My old injury has flared up.
I can barely move now. Master, take care. I’m afraid I can’t help with your battle against Water God. Are you planning
to borrow Diting’s power? Exactly. Water God, feel free to arrange it. I’m best at probing the hearts
of all beings. Come over here. They appeared in the woods
five li to the north. Wait, there are also some in the south. They’re in all directions. So many? It seems this outer-world demon
can split into many. How about we split up? I’ll go south. Let’s go north. We’ll go together. I’ll follow Senior Duobao to the south. See? Only Water God has a girl by his side. Ding, let’s go east. Ride your own cloud. Ding, you’re so aloof. By Taoist Ancestor’s command, we’ve come
to eliminate the outer-world demons. We won’t hurt the innocent,
so don’t worry. Everyone, stay silent. Meditate quietly while Master verifies their identities. As long as we hide
inside the mortals today, these Saint’s disciples
can’t do anything to us. Madam, the humans possessed by a demon
have a certain characteristic. What is it? Those possessed have dark circles under their eyes. Well, I just made it up. It wouldn’t be so troublesome
if I don’t care about the human’s body. Let me do it today. They often stirred trouble at the edge
of the primordial world before. I’ve fought them dozens of times, so I know them somewhat. Be careful. This one is their leader. Little guy, can you handle this? If you argue with Yunxiao in the future, I won’t help you
block her Vessel of Chaos. Where am I? The demons
have been expelled from your bodies. This elixir
will help restore your energy. Thank you, sir. [Big Brother] Oh, no. We cornered the outer-world demons with no way out. They are going all out now. They’ve devoured a large amount
of human spirit souls and energy, making them stronger than before. They want to use humans
as nourishment to grow stronger. Mr. Chengzi, Mr. Duobao, Mr. Huanglong, Mr. Yuding, please guard the town at four directions
to protect the humans here. Junior Yuding, you’re so far away. I feel uneasy. Fire to burn, dragons return. So, this is
the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Shield used to burn Goddess Shiji
and break the Blood Formation during the Name List Catastrophe? Immortal Taiyi not only
has a sharp tongue, but his treasures
are formidable as well. Endless sky, calm the tide. Changshou, it’s dangerous. Don’t come over. Entrust your body and mind to me. I can bring him back to life. How is that possible? Have you ever tried to recall every moment of the nightmare for an entire 12 years? Get out of here! It’s really challenging
to kill the outer-world demon. Then let’s keep slashing
until it can’t form again. Immortal, I have a way to kill it in one strike. Please turn around, treasure. If the outer-world demon
can constantly regenerate, why leave this part behind? This is its true body. Finally. Be careful. Little guy, you didn’t subdue the small gourd? I’m really embarrassing myself
in front of the Vessel of Chaos. What a useless treasure. Let me teach it a lesson for you. Gongming, don’t rush. I still need it. For now, let’s deal
with the outer-world demon. Hurry, its true form is… Master, the Water God
has handled the demon. You are one step too late. So this little thing is its true form. How cunning. Thankfully, there’s someone
even more cunning. [Stability]
No, more stable. Now, it should be completely dead. Water God, you’re always trustworthy. The Taoist Ancestor has finally removed
the world-destroying lightning. This time, I was caught off guard
by a lack of information. I’ll punish myself by copying
the Art of Stability a thousand times. The excellent Qi cultivators
in the primordial world are not as good as I expected. Don’t let your guard down. Luckily, Mei Wenti drew their attention,
or else… Guys, you can laugh if you want. Water God, your foresight
is truly impressive. I’ve thought of that. It’s just that he acted more quickly. You’re always a step later. Master, you clearly can’t defeat him.
There’s no point in forcing it. Master, stay calm. Are you doubting my loyalty to you? I’m the most loyal symbol
among the primordial world’s spirits. Are you? Then stay put. Put down your staff first. Without our outstanding performance,
would the Water God have spared us? Master, you can’t just
turn your back on me. These outer-world demons have always
wanted to invade the primordial world. Where is exactly their stronghold? Why don’t we interrogate them? Interrogate the outer-world demons? This is unheard of. What’s your plan? Can outer-world demons
not be interrogated? Great, once again I’ve fallen short
due to a lack of information. It might not be interrogation. It could be… Roasting. Well, you know what, it’s quite interesting. You look a bit like the octopus. Let me try roasting you
with some true fire. OK. Let’s add some lightning. – It’s so hard to stay alive.
– It’s so hard to stay alive. Try it. Fellow juniors, are you all okay? Senior Xuandu, thank you
for your concern. We are fine. As for the outer-world demon… It should be gone by now. Can’t say for sure. Nothing is absolute. You still want
to retry refining this place? We’ve already tried so many methods.
What could have gone wrong? The path of stability
should have no limits. [Stability] Great Mage, how is the situation
in Xuandu City? I want to thank Kong Xuan. But in the future, it’s better not to intrude
on Xuandu City. I wouldn’t dare
enter your territory again. That’s not what I meant. The outer-world demon confuses the mind.
They’re tricky and unpredictable. If you act rashly,
they might take advantage. But I would never ruin your efforts. Was Kong Xuan always this stubborn? When we dealt with the tenfold Demon
in Quezhou City, he was swift and decisive. Even when beating Randeng… Nothing. You can’t leave. You just can’t. Father, look. This fell from him. The flame. Our ancestor is still alive. They are descendants
of the Human devil soldiers. In ancient times, many humans have volunteered
to stay near Xuandu City to protect the peace
of the primordial world. Most here are descendants
of those ancient Humans. Who would have thought they were
connected to the Human devil soldiers? Hey, do not be rude. It’s our ancestor who fought demons. But they have long been driven away. Why hasn’t the ancestor come home? The devil soldiers fought
to protect Humans. Now that Humans have risen, they are forever stuck in the past. The devil soldiers
have abandoned seven emotions. Even if they meet their closest kin,
they cannot recognize them. Father, look! I can fly now! Ancestor? I wonder
if our ancestor is still around. We… We survived. [Big Brother] Great Mage, I want to help the devil soldiers
regain their senses. These Bean Soldiers are immune to the outer-world demon,
like the devil soldiers. They can guard Xuandu City
instead of the devil soldiers. The devil soldiers have been through
for millions of years. Their loved ones and comrades
are long gone. Many things have changed. They may no longer have anything
to cling to. It may be too cruel
to restore their senses now. But how would we know
what they want if we don’t ask? These seniors are all Human heroes. They protected Humans to this day. We can’t expect them
to keep fighting for Humans now. That’s unreasonable. But the devil soldiers’ fate
should not be decided by us. Great Mage, thank you for your guidance. I will go to the Huoyun Cave now. In the battle at the Youqin Kingdom,
you saw the enemies Humans faced. Changgeng, have you considered the consequences
of aiding the devil soldiers? As humans, some karma is ours to bear. Humans must be proud of you. You must want to see how magnificent the world
you fought for has become. Let him go. Senior, should I go greet Senior Suiren? No need. Suiren has fallen
too deep in his world. Before you leave,
just bow to the marshland. Human disciples greet Senior Suiren. May you recover soon. May Humans prosper and the world be at peace. Senior Suiren probably wants
to see his fellows. I will surely help all seniors
regain your emotions. Mr. Bai, do you know the origin
of Lu Ya’s gourd? It comes from Innate Gourd Vine
on Buzhou Mountain. It shares the same origin
as the purple-gold gourd that holds the Nine-turn Golden Pill
in the Tushita Palace. Innate Gourd Vine produced seven gourds. My eldest martial uncle Sage Taiqing,
my second martial uncle Yuanshi Tianzun, and my master Tongtian Master
each took one. The remaining four were taken
by some powerhouses. This one was likely taken
by Donghuang Taiyi. It then stayed in the Demon Court. This gourd contains
incredibly sharp innate sword energy that can sever the primordial spirit
of all things. But the gourd itself
is difficult to control. No wonder I was hurt by its sword energy
when I tried to use the blade. Let’s try again today
and see if we can subdue it. Please, turn around. Not loud enough? Please, turn around. Could you please turn around? I don’t believe we can’t tame it. Taoist Gongming, could you stabilize
that cloud through Sea-Calming Pearls? There seems to be something strange
inside the gourd. There are some fine marks
inside its spout. The Immortal-slashing Flying Blade
was forged later, yet it still hurts so much. It has been reforged. falling into a demon means turning their obsessions
into devil energy. This method easily causes the true form
to lose control. But they don’t seem
to have that problem. After they turned, they lost all awareness
of the outside world. But to keep their sense of self, they’ve sealed away their emotions, enduring the torment
of their devil energy. You don’t want them to be trapped
in their obsessions forever. So you want me
to help them regain their emotions? Senior, your power over emotions
can influence everything, maybe even stir theirs and help them break free
from their chains. What should I do? During
the Great War of Witches and Demons, demons ruled the sky, and witches ruled the land. To survive, humans endured hunger and cold,
hiding underground, only to become sacrifices in the strife. The witches and demons
are fighting again! Run! Quick, let’s hide underground! The demons wanted to wipe us out to forge their Witch-slaying Sword. There was no future for us. Father, wake up! How long do we have to live like this? Mother! For the day when humans
no longer live in fear. For the day we stand tall on this land. For humans! For our future! Charge! Run! Danger! Where’s the danger? It’s just fireworks. Aren’t they pretty? No danger here? Mother always said the Southern Continent is peaceful now. No more demon invasions
like in ancient times. That’s so great! You’re such a worrywart. Good thing we have
the ancestral beast-tooth necklace to protect our descendants forever. When they recalled
the suffering of their ancestors, their devil energy
almost spiraled out of control, but they chose to hurt themselves
rather than let it loose. That’s when I realized
how to set them free. Now I understand. They never lost their kindness. They’re just trapped
by their obsessions. To bring back their emotions, we must resolve the obsessions
in their hearts. All they ever wanted was for humans to survive. Now, the demons are no longer a threat. Humans live alongside all beings. Seniors, you don’t have to
keep fighting anymore. You can finally choose your own path. If you wish to reincarnate, Senior Houtu can arrange it. But personally, I hope you’ll stay
and see the world as it is now. Now that our descendants are safe
and humanity is thriving, our wish has been fulfilled. We have no regrets. Let it end here. We’ve lived through storms of war. Now, we fade like petals
on a spring wind. As a wisp of lingering soul, I’d better find my rest. Master Changgeng,
please take care of those who remain. We’re leaving now. Not one of them chose reincarnation. They’ve suffered enough since ancient times. I understand. But it breaks my heart
to see heroes just wither away. Do none of you wish to stay? Our comrades are gone.
We should’ve followed. But even now, something still tethers us here, though we don’t know why. Sir, do you still need us? If I say no, will they disappear? Humans don’t need you
to shed more blood. You have the right
to choose your future. But if you need a reason to stay, I can give you one. Stay and fight for me. We’re at your command. Do you remember your names? Then here’s your first mission. Give yourselves, or each other, a name. [Big Brother] Let’s try again today to see if we can finally tame it. Wait. There seems to be something inside. It looks like a person? The ancient witch, Yi? Didn’t he die long ago
in the Great War of Witches and Demons? This might be his spirit soul. It’s likely that after Yi
shot down the nine golden crows, the Demon Court held a grudge and imprisoned his spirit soul
to refine the gourd. The cycle of revenge never ends. And judging by his condition, he must’ve suffered endlessly. Senior Yi was once a hero who stood against the Demon Court. It’s heartbreaking to see him end up like this. Water God, [The Ancient witch, Yi]
what’s your plan? The Immortal-slashing Flying Blade
is a legendary weapon. If I want to control it, I must first awaken his spirit soul. That way, you can save him too. To awaken his spirit soul, we’ll need to find someone
connected to him. Right. Didn’t Senior Yi have a wife? Ao Yi, notify the Moon Palace. Tell them I’m taking up
the instructor for 300 Chang’e fairies. Minister Changgeng has taken up
his post at the Moon Palace? Congratulations, Your Majesty,
you’ve achieved your wish. What wish? The Catastrophe is approaching. Didn’t you deliberately assign
the Water God to the Moon Palace to prevent him from getting too close
to Yunxiao of the Jie Taoism? You’ve seen through me, Minister Mugong. Jie Taoism is doomed. If Minister Changgeng gets too involved, he’ll be dragged down with them. Better to let Heng’e discipline him a bit. His Majesty is really something. According to ancient records, Heng’e, the daughter of Emperor Ku, fell in love with Yi of Witch
and became his wife. But during the Great War, the Demon Queen Xihe,
seeking revenge for Yi killing her sons, tricked Heng’e into taking an elixir, causing her to fly to the Moon Palace
on the Lunar Star, trapped there ever since. Then she and Yi were parted forever. After the Heavenly Court
was established, Heng’e remained in the Moon Palace, titled the Lunar Deity, just below me in rank. The remaining devil soldiers
refused to reincarnate. So I settled them in the towns
near the Sea God Temple. They can experience mortal life there and figure out their future paths. They sacrificed everything for humans. They’re all heroes. They deserve a place to belong. But seeing everything
they’ve been through stirs something deep inside me. It’s hard to shake it off just yet. Back then, Bixiao was stuck at a bottleneck for countless years. She was anxious and restless. I calmed her down like this. You want to give it a try? Oh, by the way, there’s something else
I need to tell you. Just take some good rest. You sneaky Water God, now you’re even taking a post
at the Moon Palace? Everyone knows
it’s full of beautiful immortals. Humph! I’ll make him pay for this! [Zhao Gongming’s sword] [Wu Gang] there is a way. Come and see! It’s the newly built
Cat Immortal Divination Barrel. Drop in a spirit stone,
and it will answer your questions. Cat Immortal Divination? Cat Immortal, I know a friend who has fallen in love
with his senior sister. [Immortal’s guide] You’ve chosen the path to immortality,
why fear the unclear future? That makes so much sense! Cat Immortal, I know a friend who has met a bottleneck in cultivation. Why do they all talk
about their friends? Everyone knows
they are talking themselves. Changshou’s idea is quite impressive. He doesn’t waste his brightness. Martial Uncle, I can hear you. I have other matters to attend to. I’m just here on behalf of Baifan Hall. Cat Immortal’s divination
is truly impressive. Many thanks, Cat Immortal. Is it really that accurate? Martial Aunt Jiu Jiu really comes. Cat Immortal, I know a friend who’s been unable to break through. Do you have a way to help me? I mean, help her. I came from the mortal world,
seeking for immortality. Mortal world? This is the place the Cat Immortal said? What could possibly be here? Not even a ghost. Why does this feel so familiar? Demon attack! Run! Mother! Mother! Run! Are you okay? It’s… Are you alright? Jiu. Thank goodness. Mother? The Southern Continent
is plagued by demons. We can’t ensure her safety. Since she has talent for cultivation, please take her with you. If so, you will have few chances to see her. As long as she lives, that’s enough. Oh my. I’ve stayed in Duxian Sect for so long. I almost forgot I was once a mortal. I walked on the immortal path
in pursuit of longevity. I only ever wanted
to protect others like her. That’s all. I came from the mortal world, seeking for immortality. [Celestial Immortal Realm]
Martial Aunt Jiu Jiu has broken through! [Big Brother] Moon Palace, located on Lunar Star. What they call Lunar Star
is the moon mortals see, the crescent in poets’ verses, and the radiant glow in lovers’ eyes. This is Laurel Tree, one
of the ten great innate spiritual roots. It has the power of self-healing. Unexpectedly, it can even
support Lunar Star. He uses an ordinary axe
to wound this tree. He is… Greetings, Senior Wu Gang. Ignore me? [Moon Palace Mission by Li Changshou]
Step one [Starring: Li Changshou, Heng’e,]
of the Moon Palace mission: [Starring: Wu Gang, Jade Rabbit]
Build rapport. Learn more about Yi and Heng’e’s past. Senior, when you swing your axe, it seems to resonate with the Great Tao, much like Emperor Yu. You’ve been to Huoyun Cave? Who are you?
How can you enter here freely? Ancient records say Wu Gang was the chief guard
of the ancient Human Emperor Ku. It seems to be true. Just an ordinary
Heavenly Court immortal. I was ordered by Human Emperor Ku
to guard Princess Heng’e here. If you want to hurt her, I would not spare you
no matter who you are. Rest assured, Senior.
I was also a human. I’m merely curious about the past. Why did you and Lunar Deity come to this cold and desolate place? I’ve read many ancient books… but the details are vague. In an era
where it was kill or be killed, there’s nothing more to say. I only wish to cut down this tree
and end the oath the lady made. Sounds like there’s more to the story. Could it be related to Yi? As for you… We never leave our names
when we fight to protect our land. You guys must strive to defend the world our predecessors fought for. We will not fail you, Senior. General Wu. [Jade Rabbit, Lunar Star] Jade Rabbit? We have a guest? General Wu, have you seen Water God? My sisters asked me to greet him. Water God? They say he’s a powerful god
from the Heavenly Court, a disciple favored
by the Human Taoism sages, and the husband of Jie Taoism’s Yunxiao. He should just be on good terms
with Immortal Yunxiao, not her husband. Who cares. Male immortals all have dirty minds. [Dirty Lecher]
Water God must be a lecher. Or why would His Majesty appoint him
as Chang’e faries’ instructor? That probably… wasn’t his choice either. It’s all the same. [Hear wisely, share responsibly] General Wu, since he hasn’t arrived yet,
I’m leaving. Water God, the welcoming ceremony for you has been arranged in Laurel Hall. So, it’s you. Yes. I won’t disturb you, Senior.
I’ll be leaving. Jade Rabbit, be smart. Here comes Water God. The dirty lecher! It’s actually him? Step two of the Moon Palace Mission:
Show authority. Show them the imposing manner
of a Heavenly Court immortal. – Greetings, Water God.
– Greetings, Water God. No need for formalities. I have little knowledge
of music and dance. Please continue your training as usual. – Yes!
– Yes! [A Hundred Ways to Cook Rabbit Meat] Rabbit meat is best roasted for flavor. Rabbit… Rabbit meat? I’m doomed! Step three of the Moon Palace Mission:
Make enemies. Why isn’t Heng’e here? Do I not even deserve this much respect? Isn’t the Water God meeting Lunar Deity? What’s this about? Make way, people. [Wholesome streaming is encouraged.] [No inducing minors to gift.] [No fraud, gambling, or misconduct.] [Violators will be suspended.] Can you hear me? Water God? I am Changgeng,
Water God of the Heavenly Court. Today, I’ll livestream my meeting with the Lunar Deity. Double-click the heart icon
if you want to see it. He is a genius! [The Twelve Remonstrances
of the Heavenly Court] Minister Changgeng,
you never fail to surprise us. Father. Mother requests your presence
at the Jade Lake for a meal. She is indeed well-informed. The Lunar Deity has granted this event. To avoid noise here, your voices won’t reach her. But feel free
to post bullet screen comments. Now, follow me to behold the grace of the Lunar Deity. My apologies for the wait. [Heng’e, Lunar Deity] Is this the famed Lunar Deity? Though her veil hides her face, I feel myself falling in love. I must become worthy of her. Water God, they say you’re resourceful, a pillar of the Heavenly Court. So I have a matter to entrust to you. We’ve never met. I’m afraid… What benefit do you seek? As long as I have it, I can fulfill you. Her gaze, her tone, her words. All too flirtatious. I’ve never had any dealings with Heng’e. Why is she acting this way…? Lunar Deity, no joke, please. If it’s a simple favor, I will lend a hand. But if not, I must beg your pardon and decline. Water God, are you truly so cold? She is determined to stir up trouble. I even started a livestream
to avert suspicion. Why is she still…? Wait. She’s acting this way. Is it another scheme by the Jade Emperor? Her spirit energy seems faint. Is the one speaking to me also an incarnation? Why waste time with the incarnation? I’ll find her true form. Heavenly Court official, my foot. Still becomes my servant, working for me. I am the most beautiful immortal
in the primordial world. Has she been secluded for so long that she’s developed schizophrenia? Poor mental state. What is there to discuss? Farewell. It’s better if we never meet again. Who is it? [Ouch] Good, my face is unharmed. My beauty is no less than hers. Since this Moon Palace is so desolate, why do you persist in staying,
Lunar Deity? Why has Master suddenly fallen silent? [Big Brother] So many have been fooled
by this fragile facade. Stereotypes deceive. Water God, if you want to see me, why bother…? Still using her charm to deflect? Truly a veteran actress
of the primordial world. Impressive skills, Lunar Deity. Water God, you quickly
saw through my incarnation too. Now facing my true form, why avert your gaze? Please, make yourself presentable first. I’m only here
to speak with you honestly. Neither of us desires
entanglement between us, do we? You’re as perceptive
as expected, Water God. Before we begin, could you promise me that whatever you saw or heard just now will not be revealed? Of course. I apologize for intruding. Water God, have a seat. Deity, maybe you could dismiss
the incarnation. Or this will become a streaming mishap. Water God, how are you speaking
to me simultaneously? Do you have two primordial spirits
within you? No, it’s because I’m full of wits. Let me get you some fresh brew and delicacies, so our conversation won’t be too dull. Nothing to see here now. Let’s leave. Water God, I guess you came not just to avoid scandal. What else do you seek? Why do you ask that, Lunar Deity? His Majesty has urged you repeatedly, yet you always declined. But now, you’ve made an exception. You used the punishment of the rabbit to spread rumors of discord between us, but you still came when I invited you. So, Water God… you must have your own agenda. Otherwise, with your wits, you’d find any excuse to refuse. She’s such a clever woman. But even so, you don’t control this situation. I do want you to meet
an old acquaintance. Whether you help after that is your choice. An old acquaintance? Who is it? Yi? The cage contains innate sword energy. Though it’s now sealed
by the Taiji Diagram, it’s best not to get too close. Yi. Why… Why doesn’t he recognize me? This is Senior Yi’s spirit soul. Demons have imprisoned him
in this treasure for millennia and now his mind is lost. Demons? They still delight in tormenting life. Deity, do you have a way
to awaken Senior Yi? Or he’ll continue suffering within it. Yi loved watching the prayer dances of the Witch. Let me try. Never thought I’d witness the dance of Heng’e. An immortal maiden performing a sacred ritual dance? Not working. The harder she tries, the more pitiful it feels. Water God, please don’t tell anyone what just happened. Deity, rest assured. I swear to the Tao of Heaven, I will keep this to myself. Not my fault, anyway. The dances of the Witch are mostly bold and vigorous. If we had a witch perform this… It’s really working. [Mystic arts]
The universe truly is governed by mystic arts. Is it you, Tiechui? [Episode 82] Is it you, Tiechui? Who is Tiechui? Things seem a bit complicated. Lunar Deity, are you okay? What’s with that look in your eyes? What you heard was merely
the later generations’ version. Yi and I are not as the rumors say,
but we are close friends. Tiechui was an ancient warrior
of the Witch, also Yi’s beloved. They met during the Witch’s ritual. They fell in love
through the blessing dance. But not long after, Tiechui died in the Great War
of Witches and Demons. Later, as the Demon Court’s power grew, the Human and the Witch had to
join forces against the Demon. But neither side trusted the other. They both feared for betrayal. To stabilize morale, my father and the ancient witches agreed that I would marry the most respected
Grand Witch of the time. See? Truth isn’t as beautiful as rumors. No, it was not Tiechui. You’re a witch. Has the bloodline
of the Witch extinguished? Witch-origin power? You don’t need to worry, Senior Yi. The Demon Court has fallen. Senior Houtu’s lineage still survives, and the Witch of Beijulu Continent
continues to thrive. Though the Witch
is no longer at their peak, their bloodline has not died out. What he said is true. Yi, it’s me, Heng. Look at me. I’m Heng. Heng… Heng? It’s really you. We met again. It’s been several millennia of years since our last meeting. After I left, did they give you trouble? And now, have you found the one you deserve? I’m doing well. Life is long. I’ll find that person eventually. That’s good. I fought countless battles
for the Witch in my life. I should’ve died on the battlefield, but I ended up enslaved
by the Demon after death, wandering in a daze
for tens of thousands of years. I don’t know
if I ever harmed my own kind. Now the nightmare is over. It’s time for me to leave. Tiechui must have waited
for me a long time. Young man, I’ve left you a gift as repayment for saving me. The peace of the primordial world today
is built upon your effort. It’s only right I do this. Farewell, Senior Yi. Thanks again for your help, Lunar Deity. Without your efforts,
we couldn’t have awakened Yi. It seems only you can help me find that person. It’s a pity I never saw
Immortal Heng’e in person. After the fall of the Demon Court, the Human and the Witch
turned on each other. By then, Yi had long been dead, and Heng’e, as the Grand Witch’s wife, was caught in a difficult position. She was possibly even targeted
by both sides. Perhaps that’s why she vowed never
to leave Moon Palace. Please turn around, treasure. To repay Water God’s favor, Yi left behind Witch-origin power to help Water God control
the Immortal-slashing Flying Blade. With a new weapon capable of slaying
someone at Daluo Immortal Realm, isn’t that something worth celebrating? Why the sigh, Water God? My karmic ties with Senior Yi
are settled, but I’m destined to owe Heng’e karma. Lunar Deity, what do you want? I want you to help me find someone. But I don’t know who… who the person is. Why not? It feels like a piece of me is missing. I don’t know what I lost, nor why I lost it. This feels like the Tao of Heaven
corrected her. But why did it correct Heng’e? All I remember
is that person once told me… If you don’t want to be locked away
in the cold palace, spending countless years in solitude, then fight, break your destiny, and become a carefree immortal. And then? He’s gone. Everything vanished. My father said I had been asleep
for ten thousand years, but I could clearly feel that person was my master. Only one could foresee Heng’e’s fate and be corrected by the Tao of Heaven. Taiqing. Is it hinting that I should
visit Taiqing Temple? Why now, just after hearing
about Senior Bold? Was my meeting with Heng’e simply a coincidence, or is the Tao of Heaven
subtly manipulating me again? [Big Brother] This is the first time
I’ve seen you dress up so properly. Since Sage Taiqing summoned me
to Taiqing Temple. I can’t be too rude. Taiqing Temple? That’s the domain of Sage Taiqing. I heard no one has been there
except for the Great Mage of Xuandu. This trip to Taiqing Temple
is a rare opportunity. I can also take the chance
to inquire with Sage Taiqing about the forces behind the meeting
with Heng’e at Moon Palace to see if anyone else was involved
besides the Jade Emperor. Master, I need to leave for a while. Don’t worry, I’ve asked Mr. Bai
to look after Xiaoqiong Peak. [The Tomb of Master Qi Yuan] Changshou, come back soon. Taiqing Temple is
in the void beyond the sky. Just focus on flying into the clouds. I’m almost at the end of the void. It’s said when the world appeared,
the pure qi rose and formed the sky, protecting the primordial world. Beyond the sky lies the Chaotic Sea where demons dwell. Can humans survive there? Are you that excited
to see Taiqing Temple? I used to wonder
what Taiqing Temple would look like, but now that I see it, I feel like it should be just like this. Don’t make things too awkward later,
but don’t be too cocky. The Sage doesn’t like nagging people.
Just express yourself properly. Come in. That should be Great Mage’s position. I, Li Changshou, pay my respects to Sage… Master Taiqing. Rise. I called him Master, and he responded. So he has officially taken me
as his disciple? We’re talking through
telepathic voices even now. This is truly the tradition
of Human Taoism. Sit. Why doesn’t he speak? Is he testing my patience? [Three days later] [Half a month later] [Abnormal network connection] [Typing] He moved! Master finally moved! As expected of the strongest Sage,
casually tearing Heaven and Earth. This object has boundless Taoist wisdom. Looks like the test is over,
and he’s teaching me skills. [Tips for conversing with disciples] So Master wasn’t speaking
because he didn’t know what to say? Do you like Yunxiao? Immortal Yunxiao is profound
in Taoism and upright. Every time I speak with her,
I feel enlightened. If Wenjing can destroy the Golden Lotus,
she may join Human Taoism. If you can wrest Kong Que
from the west, he can also join Human Taoism. Seems Master has already
seen through the catastrophe. But to subdue Kong Xuan… Master, I still need Senior Xuandu’s help, though he’s not interested
in these matters. I worry that… Go ahead and do it. I shall contribute all I can
to the prosperity of Human Taoism. Has he run out of topics again and is figuring out what to say? When the investiture of the Gods
is discussed at Zixiao Palace, you shall come with me. Got it. I’ve received some information, and I wonder if it’s a warning
from Taoist Ancestor. Correct. He was indeed warning you. You know too much. So Master is telling me Taoist Ancestor used Senior Bold
to warn me. If I interfere too much
with the catastrophe, then being erased by the Tao of Heaven
will be my end. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. But from Master’s tone, he, like me, wishes to alter the course
of the catastrophe. You led the rise of the Heavenly Court. Find balance in the Great Tao
and use it well. I won’t blindly go
against the Tao of Heaven. I just feel there must be a balance between
Heaven’s will and the lives beneath it. I want to follow my own path and do what should be done
for Taoism and the Human. I have one more question. Xifang Taoism constantly drives wedges
between the Three Sects of Taoism, hindering the rise
of the Heavenly Court. I don’t know to what extent I can do to them. [Sages cannot die] I’m finally back. Changshou. You must’ve gained a lot
from Sage Taiqing’s teachings. I gave him three bows,
and he taught me the Way of Non-Action. Three bows… You’ve been formally accepted
as Sage Taiqing’s disciple? With this connection, I will be more secure in the future. He also accepted you as a named disciple and bestowed upon you
the Jade Purity Vase. If you ever face a powerful foe,
just point the vase at them. If they speak, they’ll be drawn in. Li Changshou, do you dare respond? I am here. Lan Ling’e! don’t forget to bow
before Master’s portrait. Look, Mr. Bai. This was given by Sage Taiqing, no, Master Taiqing. [An easy victory] Well, I’m really jealous. [Episode 83] Mr. Bai, any disturbances in the primordial world
these three years? No real disturbances, but… Now, White Dragon in the Waves
for you guys. Hope you enjoy it. ♪Nine-Toothed Rake burns in flame♪ ♪I had an armor by my side♪ ♪Leading the way by the Celestial River♪ ♪I beat up this white dragon♪ Ao Yi, take this. The Senzu Bean test field
is still under development. Please stay tuned. Look, this man is Shuai, and this woman is Mei. Now that live stream is trending
in the Heavenly Court, Water God’s plan is at the perfect stage for execution. As Minister Changgeng said, initiate
the Super Heavenly Soldier Program, establish a symbol of justice
for the Heavenly Court, and expand Heavenly Court’s influence
in the primordial world. The key to the plan [Heavenly Soldier]
is to find a soldier as the spokesperson, and this person… Must walk it to the end. Xuanya, on this journey, you’ll become the symbol
of the Heavenly Court to the outside world. You will also face
more attention and doubt. You must use your sword
to show the world that if we don’t uphold justice, you are indulging evil. Are you ready? Please, Mr. Bai. The female immortal
whom the Water God was seeking, the one who slays demons
and protects the people, has been brought here. Li Changshou, you have a visitor. The news of you taking
Martial Uncle Taiqing as master has already spread
across the primordial world. Changgeng, you should call us seniors. But first, tell us about meeting the No. 1 beauty
of the primordial world. If you dare hide anything, you’re done. My visit to the Moon Palace was mainly to resolve the issue
of Yi’s spirit soul. You can investigate it. The Truth Orb hasn’t changed color. Seems he’s telling the truth. We’ll let you go this time. But if it happens again… Father, I know I was wrong. What did you do wrong? Aunt went down to the mortal world
without permission while you were undergoing tribulation. I shouldn’t have kept it from you. Anything else? You haven’t seen Aunt for days. I shouldn’t have told you she was sick. Father, I was really wrong. Yunhua already caused trouble, but you followed along
and made it worse. Go back and reflect on yourself. Father. Yunhua? Jade Emperor’s younger sister. While the Jade Emperor
was undergoing tribulation, she secretly went to the mortal world,
married a mortal man and gave birth to three children. That mortal’s name is… Yang… Yang Tianyou? Hua, let me do it. [Yunhua, Heavenly Court] Don’t catch a cold. Yang Tianyou… What a familiar name. Back then in my class, there were a few other students. This one? Or this one? Right, it was him. To escape pursuit by the Heavenly Court, Yunhua and Yang Tianyou hid deep
in the mountains and set up a concealment barrier. She thought she had hidden well, but Jade Emperor had known everything. [Yang Tianyou, Quezhou City]
Have you ever thought about our future? I have no talent for cultivation, and at most, I’ll live a hundred years. Compared to the long lifespan
of immortals, that’s but a fleeting moment. The thought that I’ll eventually leave, that you’ll grieve for me tears my heart apart. Yang Tianyou, listen. [Yang Dalang, Quezhou City]
With one day left, I’ll stay with you. If you live 100 years,
I’ll stay 100 years. Anyway, however long you live, I will stay with you that long. He’s born. Congratulations. You have another son. Erlang, be good. From now on, I’ll protect you. In the folk legends of Blue Star, Yang Jian’s father and brother
were both killed by the Heavenly Court. His mother was imprisoned
beneath Peach Mountain. Because of this, Yang Jian
split open the mountain in rage and caused a scene
at the Heavenly Court. Later, he became one
of the Court’s generals. But he left behind one line,
“Obey orders, not administration.” It could be said that Yang Jian’s rapid growth was fueled by vengeance. Your Majesty, though Princess Yunhua
went to the mortal world without permission
and violated the Rules of Heaven, it was her first offense… I’m not thinking
of how to punish Yunhua. I’m worried that having spent
so long in the Heavenly Court, she knows little of the mortal world. Being both Yunhua’s elder brother and the ruler of the Heavenly Court, this must weigh heavily
on Jade Emperor’s heart. [Big Brother] During this time, Wenjing reported the latest movements
of Xifang Taoism to me. As expected, they’ve traced
the karmic ties involving Yunhua. Since she is Jade Emperor’s sister, this is considered their family affair. We might as well make use of it. Have you heard? Immortal Yunhua secretly descended
to the mortal world, and even had children with a mortal man. Is that true? Such rumors will surely
turn the gods and immortals of the Heavenly Court
against Yunhua’s entire family. Relax, Your Majesty. I’ve already come up with a way to neutralize the negative sentiment. What does Yang Tianyou have
to deserve the favor of Princess Yunhua? Princess Yunhua was too naive. Bro, I tell you what. Yang Tianyou is actually
the reincarnation of a golden boy. He and Princess Yunhua are bound
by a love spanning three lifetimes. Look, this is their first lifetime… What a tale of golden boy and jade girl. Master, rest assured. Our people are already in position
for tomorrow’s court session. What’s more, you know, we have a backup plan. Tianyou, you should get some rest. You’ve got writing to do
at the market tomorrow. [Yang Sanniang, Quezhou City]
Father, hug. Jian! Hua, you… Yunhua, the road you chose
is destined to be difficult. Your Majesty, Yunhua is a member
of the Heavenly Court, yet she violated Rules of Heaven
and descended to the mortal world. This is her first sin. She neglects duties
despite holding a divine position, making no effort to fulfill her role.
It’s her second sin. As a princess,
she married a mortal in secret, and stained the reputation
of the Heavenly Court. This is her third sin. Your Majesty, every sin Yunhua committed is a grave violation
of the Heavenly Court. If you don’t punish her severely, how will we retain the dignity
to rule the primordial world? I second this. Your Majesty, Immortal Fuyuan
makes a point. However, any judgment
should be fair and impartial. Whether there is more
to Princess Yunhua’s descent must be investigated. I am willing to make the trip
on Your Majesty’s behalf to bring Princess Yunhua back. Your Majesty,
I wish to go with Water God. A concealment barrier? Your… Your Majesty, what do you mean? I said this matter needs not trouble you guys. Your Majesty, though I countered the rumors, Xifang Taoism will not let it rest. I’ve already kept records
of all those with ill intent. These people have close ties
with Immortal Fuyuan over the years. It’s him again. If I’m not mistaken, in tomorrow’s court session, some disloyal ministers
will offer counsel and pressure you into bringing
Princess Yunhua back for punishment. Then they will intervene and complete their scheme. Makes sense. I will observe them closely tomorrow and root out
all those disloyal ministers. Also, although Yunhua
has broken Rules of Heaven, she is still my younger sister. At the right time,
I will send troops to bring her back. A light punishment will suffice. Did he resolve it? I’ll lend you the power
of the Seven Treasures Tree. Xu Puti, go ahead and do it. [Episode 84] Princess Yunhua, for your safety, His Majesty ordered us to bring you back to the Heavenly Court. Let me go. I won’t leave. I won’t! [Yang Jian, Quezhou City]
Mother! Where are you taking my mother,
you villains? Oh no. This is bad. Who are you? Treasure, please turn around. Who sent you here? Father! Tianyou. It’s okay. You’ll be fine. I won’t let you die. We promised a hundred years together, but now… only twelve have passed. Hua… I… failed… you. Tianyou. Father. – Father!
– Tianyou! Stay back! You killed my father and my brother. You are bad people! Ao Yi, take Princess Yunhua back. What about these two children? Go back. Mother! Changshou, the kid is so pitiful. Who could manipulate these heavenly soldiers like this? The only one with the means and motive is that person. Water God. You’ve gone too far, Martial Uncle. What… What is this? Who are you to cause chaos
in the Heavenly Court? Master personally intervened, yet Water God, a mere disciple of a Sage,
saw through it. If Master hadn’t destroyed
the evidence in time, Water God might’ve obtained proof
against our sect, giving the Taoism sects
and Heavenly Court a reason to attack. How impressive he is. Master, calm down. The result of the catastrophe
is now set. Let’s maneuver things later to ensure the key figure becomes a formidable enemy
of the Heavenly Court. Your Majesty, I failed you. Princess Yunhua’s family was ambushed
by demons. Yang Tianyou and his eldest son
were killed. Princess Yunhua has been taken back, awaiting judgment. Judgment? His Majesty and Water God
never intended this. Bring her in. Yunhua, you descended without permission,
lived with a mortal for years, and even tried to deceive
His Majesty and Her Majesty. Do you admit your guilt? Is this why you killed my family? Your Highness, His Majesty only ordered
to take you back. He didn’t… Mugong, step back. I’ll have Minister Changgeng
handle this. Do you admit your guilt? This is the so-called
kind-hearted Water God. This is the so-called Jade Emperor. This is the so-called Heavenly Court. If you want to kill someone, kill me! Why did you kill my husband and son? If you confess, I can spare your other son and daughter. I admit my guilt. Yunhua has confessed. Your Majesty, please imprison Yunhua in Jade Lake
for a thousand years. Granted. [Big Brother] Sit down. Drink with me. I’m so pissed. Changgeng, think of a way for me. They have to pay the price. Right now. How could a mighty sage kill mortals? That’s outrageous. Look at the other five sages. The Three Seniors Qing are noble. Senior Nyuwa embodies
great virtue and compassion. Senior Jieyin, though shrewd, never acts so recklessly. But look at Zhunti. He abuses his status as a sage
to do as he pleases! Changgeng, why don’t you speak? I… have nothing to say. Did you hear those accusations? Don’t worry. I’ll investigate who’s behind… Your Majesty, I’m just a bit sentimental today. I wanted to spare the Yang family, to guide Yang Jian’s growth smoothly without disrupting
the Heavenly Court’s rise. Yet in the end… It reminds me of the past. Back then, Lu Ya tried to kill Mugong
when you went to the mortal world to undergo tribulation. However, he accidentally killed
an immortal of the Heavenly Court. You must have heard that. That immortal was none other than my late master. Just like today, I exhausted every means, yet I still couldn’t change
my master’s fate. Today, watching Yang Jian, I see a shadow of my younger self. Changgeng, why did you convict Yunhua then? The Yang family’s tragedy is irreversible. Since nothing can be changed, then I can only go with the flow. I’ll let Yang Jian grow swiftly
through hatred. It’s the only way. As Deputy Sect Leader Randeng said,
he is extraordinary. With proper guidance,
he’ll achieve greatness. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. Then I’ll take him in. Actually, I can do that too. Junior, are you sure? It’s fine. I trust Changgeng. Are you an immortal? Taoist Randeng has deep ties
to Xifang Taoism. He led Chan Taoism to notice Yang Jian, likely to incite conflict between Chan Taoism
and the Heavenly Court. Did you have your friend
Immortal Yuding take a disciple to ease tensions between Yang Jian
and the Heavenly Court? He bears the hatred for his family
and seeks to rescue his mother. With Senior Yuding’s guidance, he will surely possess the power to tear apart Golden Immortals
within a century. When it comes to bringing Yang Jian
under control, Your Majesty can give him this to resolve your grievances. Investiture of the Gods will happen
at Zixiao Palace 90 years later. We hold proof
of a Xifang Taoism sage’s misconduct, the Heavenly Court can seize the chance
to take control of the catastrophe. Changgeng, you’re carrying
too much within you. Senior Yuding, how is Yang Jian doing? I’ve passed the Eight-Nine Arcane Skill
gifted by Great Houtu to Yang Jian. It fits him perfectly. He trains day and night, making astonishing progress. I know you want him
to cultivate through obsession. As per your instructions,
I haven’t told him the truth. But… It’s hard on you. He will surely become a mighty general
of the Heavenly Court. Before that happens,
someone has to play the villain. Then, let me be the villain. Xu Puti has been
running around a lot lately. Sage Zhunti discusses only with him. Master, you’ve fallen out of favor. Just focus on my own tasks. You don’t even have tasks. You only do chores
and drink tea with Elder Bailian. I’m waiting for the right time. Water God is a rare opponent. Next time, I swear I will defeat him. Master, you are still against him? Water God and I
are sworn enemies forever! [To Li Changshou, Yunxiao] Lately, much turmoil has brewed
within the Heavenly Court. I know you volunteered to suppress
Immortal Yunhua to protect her. You convicted her to take the blame on her behalf. You don’t care about public accusations, but I must offer you my support. With the catastrophe approaching,
everything is chaotic. Thankfully, Immortal Yunxiao remains
considerate and supportive. [98 Methods to Change
the Name List Catastrophe] The Investiture of the Gods is near. I don’t have much time left
to change the catastrophe. I must engage more
with people like Yang Jian. Changshou, our sect has taken new disciples.
Care to take a look? I’ll skip the crowd. What a powerful aura. [Episode 85] Today, we come to Duxian Sect together
to seek a master. Perhaps we’ll be fellow disciples
in the future. There are many demons
and beasts along the way. We might run into something
we can’t defeat. Why don’t we travel together? If I can defeat all these
demons and beasts, it means fate still favors me. I genuinely mean well. That guy is so ungrateful. Forget it. I know him. Years ago, his hometown was attacked
by demons and beasts. His family and friends were all killed. Ever since then, he has changed a lot and chosen to live in solitude. Later, he was rejected by many sects and became even more withdrawn. When he joined the sect, he said he wanted revenge
for his people. His background is truly tragic. If he is assigned to Potian Peak, we should pay extra attention to him. You guys have passed the entry trial and now become disciples of Duxian Sect. Next, you will be assigned
to different peaks. [Lu Ren]
Lu Ren goes to Potian Peak. Long Tao goes to Xianlin Peak. Bu Zhongyao goes to Danding Peak. Xi Fenshao goes to Xiaoling Peak. – Greetings, Master.
– Greetings, Master. – Greetings, Grandmaster.
– Greetings, Grandmaster. Our founder is doing
the lucky draw again? This disciple has an extraordinary aura. I’ll take him in. [Winner] What’s your name? [Li Jing, Duxian Sect]
I’m Li Jing. Li Jing? Changshou, are you alright? His name is Li Jing, and he drew the attention
of Immortal Du’e. Could he be the future father of Nezha and the Pagoda-bearing Heavenly King? Master, you’re leaving? What about Li Jing? He carries great fortune. Staying in the sect may lead to more opportunities. Master. This is a sword manual
I’ve treasured for years. Li Jing, in my absence, you must train hard. Master took me in but doesn’t take me along. Does he think I’m too weak? Yes, Master. Li Jing, don’t overthink it. Master surely has his reasons
for leaving you here. Got it, Sect Master. In Investiture of the Gods, due to Li Jing’s poor parenting, Nezha, already a disciple
of Chan Taoism’s Immortal Taiyi, killed the boy follower
of Jie Taoism’s Shiji. Shiji came for an explanation, [Shiji]
but she was slain by Immortal Taiyi. Shiji’s death became one of the sparks
that ignited the two Taoisms’ conflict. To prevent the tragedy, we must resolve the root cause, which is to change Li Jing’s nature and help him become a better father. Li Jing, stop training. Come out and play. I haven’t mastered the sword manual yet.
I can’t play now. Let’s go. That kid acts too cautiously. I call him Li Jing, but he calls me Sect Master. That’s weird. Please don’t mind him. Li Jing went through too much
at a young age. He’s become overly reserved. If this goes on, it will affect his future. Changshou, do you have any ideas? If we get a harmonious Taoist couple
to raise him and let him truly feel care and warmth, and then things will naturally improve. Jing, from today on, we’ll take care of you. Come here, let me teach you a move to help regulate your qi. I know I have mediocre talent. You take extra care of me only because Immortal Du’e took me
as a named follower. But still, I appreciate it. I know you’ve suffered much in the past. But now, you have a family. When trouble comes, you don’t need to bear it alone. Family… Li Jing, you’ve trained for so long. How about having a spar with me? Go ahead. I’m coming. With the care of Jiu Wu and Jiu Shi, Li Jing has learned
to handle relationships well. But… he hit a bottleneck in cultivation. Let me help you unblock your meridians. Who’s there? This masked man
is unblocking my meridians? It feels kind of cool
to play the role of a reclusive master. [Three months later] [Meridian Unblocking Construction Plan
Progress: 100%] You don’t have to come tomorrow night. Senior, thank you for your guidance. My cultivation has improved greatly. But I still don’t know
why you chose to teach me. I am… Water God from the Heavenly Court. The disciple of a Human Taoism sage,
the high minister of the Heavenly Court, Immortal Yunxiao’s Taoist partner-to-be,
and destroyer of the Demons? Greetings, Water God. I taught you because I want you
to serve the Heavenly Court and Human Taoism in the future. Do you understand? I will never let you down, Water God. In Investiture of the Gods,
Li Jing had two masters. [Human]
One was Human Taoism’s Du’e, [Chan]
the other was Chan Taoism’s Randeng. Later, as Li Jing reconciled with Nezha, both of them were likely brought
under Randeng’s wings. Li Jing’s favor toward Heavenly Court
and Human Taoism has grown immensely. Randeng, let’s see how you plan
to sway him later. Here are some books I’ve compiled. Be sure to read them well. Senior Sect Master, why did Water God give me these books? [How To Be a Successful Father] [Fatherly Love as Steady as a Mountain] [Prenatal Education] I see. Water God is hinting that he’s already qualified
to be a great father, and is capable of writing such books. In other words, Li Jing, you’ve met your opportunity. O…Opportunity? Next time when you see Water God,
just call him “Father”. Everything will make sense. Come on, was that my intention? I was clearly trying to help him
become a good father one day. Master Ji, what’s wrong with you? [Big Brother] A karmic tie of our Taoism was recently altered. With the catastrophe approaching, we must do whatever needs to be done. Yes, Sage Zhunti. Master, relax. The tasks you assigned to me are all done. Junior Dizang has also completed
the arrangements in Blood Sea. By then, you’ll only need to… Li Jing’s karma tie has been altered. The sages of Xifang Taoism
surely won’t miss this. I must meet more key figures involved in the catastrophe
before they take action. It’s said that a family fights together,
stays together. Though Nezha hasn’t been born yet, in his past life, he was
Immortal Taiyi’s disciple, Lingzhuzi. I should go meet this
fearless little troublemaker who spears his own father, [My fate is mine]
mixes the Eastern Sea [to command]
with Red Armillary Sash, [I’ll kill you all!]
and beats the Dragon King with the Universe Ring. Lingzhuzi. [Lingzhuzi, Chan Taoism]
Today, I’ll teach you how immortals have fun. Yin-Yang Finger, one, two, three! Master, you’re so annoying! What did Senior Taiyi just call him? Lingzhuzi. Oh my! The future Heavenly Court general and Great Marshal
of the Three Altars Sea is actually this soft little kid? Junior Changgeng, I told you if you want to learn
how to teach juniors, discussing Yang Jian’s case
with me is enough. Yet you insisted on coming
to Qianyuan Mountain to watch how Senior Taiyi
trains Lingzhuzi. Look, how is this the right way
to train disciples? How will we explain this to Master? Taiyi’s disciple was a spirit pearl,
nurtured in the Kunlun Mountain’s pool. It absorbed the essence of sun and moon
since ancient times and gradually gained sentience. Master said the pearl had a pure origin, and asked Senior Taiyi
to help it take form and accept him as a disciple. Who knew Lingzhuzi would be
so soft and clingy by nature? What karmic debt am I repaying here? Junior Changgeng, you’re known for your clever ideas. Help me out. Er… In Investiture of the Gods, Immortal Taiyi burning Shiji marked the first major clash
between Chan and Jie Taoisms. If I can get Taiyi to owe me a favor, it’ll be easier for me to mediate later. Feels like you’re less interested
in helping Lingzhuzi, and more in ripping me off. Am I so mean? But if you insist on giving me
something in return, it’d be rude for me to refuse. That would be disrespectful, right? Fine, it’s no big deal. I owe you one. I’ll leave this to you,
Junior Changgeng. Junior Changgeng, make him braver. A little recklessness won’t hurt. That kid doesn’t even know
how to cause trouble. So this is how you teach your disciples? No wonder he dares to make a scene
in the Heavenly Court. Martial Uncle Changgeng, am I really that bad? Being gentle isn’t a flaw. But being timid, crying easily,
and avoiding problems are what you need to improve. As for the rest, every being is unique. You don’t need to be too sharp, nor too smooth, and never change yourself
just to fit in. What does smooth mean? Lingzhuzi doesn’t understand it. That’s something
only us old folks worry about. But first, change your habit. Refer to yourself as “I”.
Don’t expose your origin. Lingzhuzi… I mean, I got it. Step one of Lingzhuzi’s
courage-building plan, muscle training
in the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Water God, don’t worry. We’ll make Lingzhuzi tougher. This is so terrifying! [One month later] Great Dragon of Might! If that narrow-minded Taiyi saw this, he’d be so satisfied. But… is he being overly tough now? Who’s the next? Step two of Lingzhuzi’s
courage-building plan, haunted house
in the Six Paths of Reincarnation. It must be connected, creating pressure and tension. The ghosts appear suddenly, but don’t overdo the horror. Pay attention to lighting and shadows. Lighting is key. Details determine the price. [Be prepared before entering the place] Done. Why don’t we try it? Is it really that scary? I don’t buy it. No. It’s too scary. [Ah] Water God’s ideas are truly good. The Courage-testing Hall
is a huge success. What happened? It shook the Earth’s Veins. Great Tao’s Thunderous Echo? Blood Sea. [Episode 86] Master. The Blood Sea is in turmoil,
and chaos may erupt. Judge, please dispatch troops now
and heighten vigilance. Master Water God. A great catastrophe
is around the corner. Avoid visits unless it’s urgent. Wenjing, you should know your place. You are our trump card
against Xifang Taoism. Though I now lead
Xifang Taoism’s beasts, I promise to you my loyalty lies with the Human Taoism. Our spy is now inside
the enemy’s senior leadership? I know that. It’s just a reminder. Let’s come down to our business. Xifang Taoism started to lay low and purge the once-housed demons
with great karmic. I’m asked to take care of that. It is inevitable that the west will
be involved in the catastrophe. To survive it unscathed, they must lighten the burden
on the Level-12 Merit Golden Lotus. They’d rather to damage themselves to preserve their whole aura
from collapsing. That’s ruthless indeed. I’ve also learned that Xifang Taoism covets
the Six Paths for Reincarnation. [Human Realm]
They intend to meddle in reincarnation. They want to fight
for the rights of incarnation? If they succeed, they can use it in the catastrophe
to fortify their foundation. So the west will remain flooded
with celestial soldiers and masters. Then the Heavenly Court
and the Taoism sects will be imperiled. Could Blood Sea’s turmoil be related to this? My master sends some treasures. Where is the diagram? Rare treasures nearly all appear. Master must want me… Act recklessly and be steady. [Duel & Feast Group @All]
Something’s wrong. I need backup. Your senior is guarding Xuandu City
beyond the heavens. Since you asked for help, I’ll stand up for you. But with all those treasures, aren’t you invincible among the sages? Invincible doesn’t mean fearless. The Courage-testing Hall
is exhilarating. I haven’t felt such fear in years. Lingzhuzi’s reform shows promise. But my disciple incurs debt,
and as his master, I must repay. Changgeng, I can’t take advantage
of you at all. Senior Taiyi, no complaining. How many people
did Junior Changgeng ask for help? [New message] [Immortal Yunxiao]
You don’t want me involved, but the catastrophe is destined. Surviving it is on us and hiding won’t work. What are we going to do next? Strike all the way there? Lady Jinling? [Lady Jinling’s Moments]
One of Jie Taoism’s four inner disciples. She single-handedly fought three of
Chan Taoism’s Twelve Golden Immortals. These two are unexpectedly in harmony. Gongming, how has your relationship
with Senior Jinguang developed? When Huoling set us up, I hoped to try
a Taoist partnership with her, but later, I realized we weren’t a good match. So I told her my thoughts. Now, we remain as senior and junior. In a short time,
you’ve gone through so many twists? Quite impressive. Thank you all. The situation in Blood Sea is unclear. We better not alert the enemy. Blood Sea is indeed different
from the Four Seas. Can’t believe so many powerful demons
and beasts are hiding here. Blood Sea existed
since the beginning of the world. It gathers the world’s turbid energy, so the creatures within
are all formidable. Wind transmission. Master Dizang sent messages. Blood Sea’s turmoil must
be known to Water God. Everyone, stay vigilant. The Princess says Water God is scheming, with a mind dirtier than Blood Sea’s
and plots wilder than the ancestor’s. Can we defeat him? We must defend this place, anyway. Better to kill the wrong people
than let anyone go. If this works,
it’ll be our Shuras’ best chance. Xifang Taoism sent
the Shura to guard here. What is their true goal? The array outside the island
blocks my spiritual sense. Senior Diagram,
can you inspect the island? No, I failed. It’s heavily guarded
with a sage’s array. Such a large setup means something crucial is stored here. [Lady Jinling, Jie Taoism] Let’s attack over
and see what Xifang Taoism is scheming. Senior Jinling, I’ll go with you. Reincarnation involves the fate
of the taoisms. It must be a long-term plot
of Xifang Taoism. It’s not that simple. Let’s be steady. Taiji Diagram, Marvelous Tower,
and the Banner of Groundless Flame. That’s steady enough. No, not enough. I have a plan called the Trojan Horse, but first, you must endure
being sealed in the bottle and wait. This isn’t just steady.
It’s overly cautious. I think you’re just afraid of dying. Treasure? Chief, while patrolling,
I discovered a treasure. No matter how we struggle,
we are merely used by Xifang Taoism. Where does our future lie? Since the world rejects us,
our clan will seek extinction. As long as the Shura survives,
Blood Sea will never drain. We must avenge our ancestors. We will never again
be Xifang Taoism’s pawns. Do you crave the power to take revenge? Then break through this array. [Big Brother] Changgeng is truly impressive. Without a single soldier lost, he drove the Shura into madness
with the power of the Seven Emotions. The Shura attains the Taoism
through killing and rarely cultivate the Taoist heart. So they have no resistance
to the power of the Seven Emotions. But, Huanglong, take care of oneself. Stop running, your scoundrel.
I remember you. It was you who provoked me
at Six Paths for Reincarnation. You’re lying. I didn’t! I’m really pathetic. I’m finally out for once, only to be used as a treasure. Don’t you think you’re going too far? I knew no one could escape
the grip of desire. Except you monsters. It’s a killing array. The array’s power is directed inward,
not outward. They meant to annihilate all beings
who enter the island with the array. Thankfully, we listened to Changgeng
and didn’t get too close. Otherwise, it would’ve been dire. Oh no, the array’s power
is now spilling outward. There may be other deadly traps
set by the sage here. We must leave quickly. No, it’s not that simple. Let’s wait longer. This place is undoubtedly a trap,
but why…? It concerns the fate of Xifang Taoism.
Their sage must be guarding personally. But along this path, I only sense
the sage’s Taoist wisdom here. So it’s likely that a Cosmos Restriction
is set near the island. This place feels weird.
It’s perhaps a portal. Senior Diagram. Er… Changgeng is impressive. He even found such a subtle setup. Human spirit souls. Such a large quantity
will surely alarm Great Houtu. But why hasn’t
Six Paths for Reincarnation noticed? Water God, since you’ve arrived,
why not talk with me? We don’t wish to go to war
with Taoism sects or Heavenly Court. We can sit down and discuss. Answer me. Oops, got exposed. With the Taiji Diagram’s covering,
how did Dizang find him? No rush. Be steady. Water God, since you’ve arrived,
why not talk with me? We don’t wish to go to war
with Taoism sects or Heavenly Court. We can sit down and discuss. Answer me. Water God, since you’ve arrived,
why not talk with me? We don’t wish to go to war
with Taoism sects or Heavenly Court. The essence of all beings
is indeed like a broken record. So it’s just a trick. Well, just another one with countless schemes. Water God, since you’ve arrived,
why not talk with me? Master, stop shouting. Though chaos is happening outside,
no enemy has shown up. Water God might not even
find this place. Don’t underestimate him. Ordinary schemes will be seen through, but psychological tactics
are the best way to expose someone. Master, do you think
this plan will work? I fear that their sage will intervene
at a critical moment. As long as the sage doesn’t perish,
it’s just a game of strategy. Also, the Second Reincarnation Tower
is only one step left. – The Second Reincarnation Tower?
– The Second Reincarnation Tower? [Episode 87] The sage made a move. The Tao of Reincarnation has been taken. They hoarded spirit souls,
tampered with the Great Tao, and established
the Second Reincarnation Tower. If this succeeds, Heavenly Court
and Taoism sects will be in danger. We must not allow the Tower
to be linked to the Tao of Heaven. Everyone, I’m afraid this time, we must confront the sage. I’d like to see who is causing trouble. If we wish to approach
the Reincarnation Tower, we must first break
the sage’s Dharma-laksana. He actually defeated
Sage Zhunti’s Dharma-laksana. That’s so cool. Good job. How did you become so decisive
all of a sudden? [Here’s what actually happened just now] Kid, you’ve been hesitating for so long. Finally ready to strike, huh? I have made 98 plans. Let me try them… What? You’re not ready to move yet? Well, sorry, I acted too quickly. Mr. Tower, you tricked me. There’s no turning back. I can only… [Help me!]
Master, help! [Help me!]
Help, please! [Dangerous behavior, do not imitate!] Sage Taiqing must have lent his strength
to Water God. Water God, are these the so-called 98 plans
you brought up? You just mean rely
on Martial Uncle Taiqing, huh? Can’t say it like that. Kid, since the Dharma-laksana has vanished
and the sage hasn’t appeared yet, act right now. Enough. It seems playing cool
is indeed dangerous. Master asked me to learn to use
the Taiji Diagram for teleporting, but how did I end up here
in the blink of an eye? Apologies for the interruption. I’m just passing by. Water God, you still want to leave? Oh, it’s Dizang. It’s been a while. I’ve really missed you. Trying to sow discord? Don’t play such dirty tricks. Changgeng, weren’t you going to take me
to somewhere nice for a drink? Martial Uncle Zhunti? Greetings, Martial Uncle. Guys, come out
and greet Martial Uncle Zhunti. [Big Brother] How dare you cause trouble
on our territory? I didn’t know the Blood Sea
now belongs to Ling Mountain. My apology. But Martial Uncle Zhunti, we are the younger generation. You have a broad mind, and I’m sure you wouldn’t want
to make an issue of it with us, especially ignoring
the Three Taoist Sages. Earlier, Junior Changgeng
wouldn’t let us act, fearing it would provoke conflict between the Three Sects of Taoism
and Xifang Taoism. However, Junior Changgeng is so rude
to Martial Uncle Zhunti. Is that really fine? The words that Changgeng
and Gongming put is quite meaningful. Whatever Xifang Taoism or we do today, or who’s sage acts first, they’ve already lost most of the game. As long as we stop
Martial Uncle Zhunti from striking to act without being able
to take us down immediately, then he loses this round. In other words, Xifang Taoism loses. That’s it? [Disrespecting the sage] [Reasonable rage] Who made this support tank setting? Taunting recklessly, speaking rudely to offend the sage. You made no gear at all. [Attack power, transformation, defense]
The only skill is mutant evolution. And you even put buffs on the enemy. Oh, I did it. Never mind, then. Martial Uncle Zhunti,
please don’t get us wrong. Senior Taiyi mistakenly thought
I invited him here for drinks, so he asked that. He never meant disrespect. Yes, exactly. Human Taoism disciple Changgeng, you deliberately ruin our plans. On behalf of Senior Taiqing,
I will teach you a lesson. You’ll be suppressed under Ling Mountain
for a thousand years. – Greetings, Master.
– Greetings, Master. – Greetings, Martial Uncle Tongtian.
– Greetings, Martial Uncle Tongtian. That title is not for you guys to call. When did our sect take in
such vile people? With Master Taiqing’s strength, I barely managed to break Sage Zhunti’s
Dharma-laksana with Taiji Diagram. But now, Master Tongtian easily broke Sage Zhunti’s ultimate move
with a single strike. So this is the real powerhouse. Changgeng, you and Taiyi
should continue to scold. If you can keep it up for six hours, I’ll approve your marriage to Yunxiao. What do you think? Tongtian Master is so unpredictable. Master, you always tell me to act with integrity, not to suppress others with powers, not to oppress the weak with force. Can’t we resolve it ourselves? I didn’t think twice before speaking. Well, I will give Changgeng a treasure. Thank you, Martial Uncle Tongtian. Today, with two sages as witnesses, allow me to ask something. The Blood Sea stirs,
so I came to check it out. Guys, what is the meaning of this? The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk
barely manages to handle the spirit souls
of the five continents. Our sect always upholds kindness
as our principle. We couldn’t bear to see spirit souls
unable to reincarnate, so we built this tower. Water God, what ill intent
could we possibly have? Indeed, while I traveled
the Three Thousand Worlds, I saw they were far
from the five continents. Countless of them dissipated
before reaching the Six Paths for Reincarnation. Our sect built the Reincarnation Tower for the sake of all living beings. No wonder Great Houtu knew nothing
of the spirit souls here. It turns out they come from
the Three Thousand Worlds. The Six Paths for Reincarnation
bears the will of the Tao of Heaven, governing rebirth
in the primordial world. Not long ago, Great Houtu’s Tao was tampered with. After arriving, I discovered
your sect’s Reincarnation Tower was connecting to the Tao of Heaven
through the Tao of Reincarnation. Is Xifang Taoism coveting
Great Houtu’s Great Tao to gain merit
via the Reincarnation Tower, or plotting to replace
the Six Paths for Reincarnation, undermine the Heavenly Court,
and defy the Tao of Heaven? Water God, don’t falsely accuse us. If you never meant that,
then swear upon the Great Tao. If the Tao of Heaven finds you innocent, I will kneel and apologize right away. Water God, is swearing
upon the Great Tao the only trick you have? I have no tricks. I just have absolute trust
in the Tao of Heaven. Even when it owes me merit, I never hesitate. Nonsense! How could the Tao of Heaven
owe anyone merit? Not owe. It’s just delayed. The world-destroying lightning that even terrifies Quasi-Sage
is like this… Could the Tao of Heaven
be backing Water God too? Let’s call it a day. After all Changgeng just said, you want to simply call it off? Senior Tongtian,
do you truly want to spar with me? Don’t just talk. Let’s fight. [Episode 88] Senior Tongtian,
do you truly want to spar with me? Don’t just talk. Let’s fight. Since you call me senior, I won’t use any treasure. If you refuse,
then let your senior Jieyin face me. Since you asked, let’s get it started. Even the mere pressure of the battle has already been so overwhelming. Destroy the tower. Guard the tower. Those of poor conduct and
shallow cultivation deserve to be beaten. Jie Taoism accepts all students
without bias. My master values karmic destiny
when choosing disciples. But you Xifang Taoism takes in anyone except picky eaters, and that’s all. That enlightenment is indeed impressive. Perhaps it’s the influence of calamity. Today, my tongue is even faster
than my thoughts. Junior Taiyi, better hold your tongue. Kill Taiyi and prove my Taoist heart. Senior Taiyi, you obsess over this and even neglect your cultivation. You should train more diligently
from now on. Not at all. When truths can’t be spoken outright,
sarcasm becomes the only way. With time, it became a skill. Threefold Path, Azure Lotus. It’s the Banner of Azure Lotus,
one of the Innate Five Banners. Five-element treasure,
blazing flame from the earth. You want to reverse the Five Elements? Don’t even think about it. Stop him! I’ll assist you. Enough! Use Metal to counterbalance Wood? You… The connection between the Tower and
the Tao of Heaven has been established. What did you do? Water God, show me what else you’ve got. Water God, bad news. A lot of spirit souls have just rushed
into the Six Paths for Reincarnation. The Reincarnation Disk is ruined. Now, spirit souls unable to reincarnate
are spilling out. They paralyzed the place
by flooding it with spirit souls. After this, soul spirits can only reincarnate
through the Reincarnation Tower. How could a disciple like you
possess such power? Unless… Spirit souls assault on the Six Paths? I don’t know what you’re talking about. You hypocrite, prepare to die! Gongming, I’ll help you. Gongming, stay calm. Junior Jinling. Step back! My Sea-Calming Pearls. Greetings, Sage Jieyin. Martial Uncle Jieyin. That’s Martial Uncle Jieyin’s treasure,
Sacred Pagoda. It’s commonly used by Xifang Taoism
to guide spirit souls. Since the Sacred Pagoda appears, we can hardly
seize the Reincarnation Tower today unless we openly defy
Martial Uncle Jieyin. [Big Brother] Changgeng of Human Taoism, On behalf of our sect leader,
I want to ask you something. This pagoda belongs to our sect. You show up and try to take it
without even asking. What do you actually want? Who are you? I am Shi Lezhi,
the discipline elder of Xifang Taoism. [Shi Lezhi, Xifang Taoism] Oh, so you’re the discipline elder. [Out of mind]
Mr. Out-of-mind.[*In Chinese, “Shi Le Zhi” can also refer to out of mind.] You… My master is Yuanshi Tianzun. Elder Shi, your Xifang Taoism
binds human spirit souls and turns them into puppets
for gathering merit. Is it true or not? What’s wrong with earning merit? Didn’t you also found the Sea God Sect? My sect has never used followers
to control anyone. [Sea God Sect Doctrine]
Worshiping us brings only peace of mind. Take our doctrine and read it carefully. If you don’t understand, I’ll teach you
Don’t twist the truth. You… Changgeng, the West is barren. We merely gather more merit
through this. It also helps keep the world in stability. Don’t you agree? What a smooth talker. You even use the stability as an excuse. You’re really shameless. Martial Uncle Jieyin, you expand
the Western lands for stability. That is a noble cause. I deeply admire it. But your disciples secretly confined the human spirit souls
of the Three Thousand Worlds and used them to assault the
Six Paths for Reincarnation. Such deception and disobedience only tarnish your reputation. You’ve always acted with great virtue. I couldn’t bear to see you
blamed for this, so I resorted to this desperate measure. Martial Uncle Jieyin,
I beg for your forgiveness. Well said. Junior Changgeng surely knows
how to speak properly. No, master.
You’re no match for Water God. You claim the disaster
was caused by us in secret. Do you have any proof? Jieyin’s arrival actually triggered
Dizang’s hidden trait. Where can I find the proof now? Proof, huh? Then if I stew your mount today and dispose of its corpse, leaving no evidence, I can just deny it ever happened, right? So you mean if Diting dies here today,
it must be by your hand. I have no proof, but that’s only because
you destroyed the proof. How can you prove
that Junior Taiyi killed Diting? What proof do any of you have that we used spirit souls to assault
the Six Paths for Reincarnation? So he means they are innocent? Dizang’s sense of logic
is really ahead of its time. Who says we don’t have proof? Before I came, I marked
every spirit soul your sect controlled. Now, those marked spirit souls
are the very ones causing trouble. This memory orb has recorded everything. Water God, your proof… So what if we did it? Helping these spirit souls reincarnate
is a good thing. If you don’t let them
enter the Reincarnation Tower, they will collapse in seven days and never return to the cycle again. Dizang. He’s bluffing. Water God is bluffing you. How could he mark all the souls
in such a short time? It’s over. It’s all over. [Let Xifang Taoism fly!] I really want to see
how they plan to clean up this mess. Well done, Junior Changgeng. [Thanks] Changgeng, I’ve long heard
of your cleverness. I’ve finally seen it for myself. No wonder Senior Taiqing favored you. Even I can’t help but admire you so much. Well, I’m in a good mood today. Let me offer some guidance to you guys. Protect yourselves
with your spirit energy. I hope you all cultivate properly
from now on and safely pass the catastrophe. Changgeng, be careful. Thank you, Martial Uncle Jieyin. Such overwhelming force. I can barely hold on. Guys, lend me some strength. He is even stronger than Zhunti
by several times. Er… So is this the Fifth Sage
of the current era? Senior Yuanshi. Junior Jieyin, why make things difficult
for the younger generation? – Martial Uncle Yuanshi.
– Master. Martial Uncle Yuanshi. [Episode 89] Senior Yuanshi. I’m listening. Explain things to me. You know what, Master, Junior Changgeng bluffed them
into telling the truth just now. Even the sages in Xifang Taoism
denied their evildoing. How arrogant! You better keep quiet. Taiyi, you’re so humorous. I was merely offering guidance just now. Then in your opinion, who should be in charge of the Second Reincarnation Tower? My disciples were reckless and even caused such a commotion. All affairs in the Primordial World should be run by the Heavenly Court. However… Martial Uncle Jieyin, don’t worry. The Heavenly Court will offer
equivalent merit to exchange this tower. I promise it will fully match the tower’s value. If so, that could not be better. I got a precious banner by accident. – Sage Jieyin.
– Sage Jieyin. Master. I wish to trade it
for the Sea-Calming Pearl in your hand. Changgeng, you did a great job. Do visit Yuxu Palace
more often, alright? I surely will visit Yuxu Palace
to pay my respects. Sage Jieyin, it’s my fault. Please give me one more chance. Let them handle things here. Sage Jieyin. Senior Yuanshi, why don’t we try to persuade
Senior Tongtian and Junior Zhunti? Good idea. Today’s matter is resolved. [Celebration Contract]
Heavenly Court and Xifang Taoism sign a contract on the usage rights
of the Second Reincarnation Tower. Having received merit,
Xifang Taoism has no further say [Merit]
in this matter. Even if I destroy the tower, I’ll never let you have it so easily. I dare you! It’s the tribulation! He’s been controlled
by the Tao of Heaven. Why is the Tao of Heaven doing this? Someone, save me! Mother, I’m scared! My boy, where are you? I don’t want to die. When all living beings
reach the end of life, they become lonely spirit souls. They long for rebirth. And reincarnation is their only path. It is the continuation of life. But now, this path is blocked, and their hope is lost. What awaits them is true death and oblivion. Once these spirit souls scatter, they will be devoured
by the Blood Sea beasts with no chance of reincarnation. No matter what, we cannot let these spirit souls
perish like this. Senior Duobao, Senior Huanglong,
please go to the Chaotic Sea and seek Martial Uncle Tongtian
and Martial Uncle Yuanshi for aid. I’ve heard Chan Taoism’s Yun Zhongzi
excels at treasure refining. Senior Taiyi, Senior Yuding, please invite him
to repair the Reincarnation Tower. Guys, please follow me to guard
the Blood Sea and slay the beasts. We must win a sliver of hope
for these spirit souls. – OK.
– OK. On behalf of the Human, I thank you all. We’re cleaning up the mess
caused by Xifang Taoism, yet those guys actually fled. We should’ve massacred them back then. Let’s try to salvage things first. Senior, how is the Reincarnation Disk? Can it hold the spirit souls here? I need to gather
the power of the Seven Emotions to activate it at full strength. In two days, it can have more space, but it can only
send off 10% of them at most. Can it take in the spirit souls
for a while before reincarnation? No, they’ve been bound too long. Even the gentlest merit power
would crush them. Seems when Xifang Taoism schemed this, they left reincarnation
as the only path. The tower holds 326,000 restrictions. Just deciphering them will take months. The matter of the Reincarnation Tower
was orchestrated by the Tao of Heaven. I guess the masters are unwilling
to confront the Tao of Heaven directly. Xifang Taoism getting involved
in the catastrophe was a variable. The Tao of Heaven still seeks
to rise the West. Why… We have only seven days. To force Xifang Taoism
into the catastrophe, they stand by and watch
these spirit souls vanish. Is the Tao of Heaven truly so heartless? Can’t I really change this so-called predestined fate? [Big Brother] Senior Duobao, Senior Jinling,
please go with my brother to suppress the evil souls
at the Six Paths for Reincarnation and free up the Reincarnation Disk
as soon as possible. Everyone else,
please stay and guard the Blood Sea. Don’t let the beasts
harm the spirit souls. Changgeng, I know you can’t bear this, but this is a variable, and there’s no perfect answer. Don’t force yourself. You’ve done your best.
Now, even if you do nothing, no one will blame you. But it’s still better
than doing nothing at all. Changgeng is from the Human. He’s never seen the misery
under the great catastrophe. He may not be able to bear it. Stay with him. Did you think of something? Just some immature ideas. I’m not sure if they will work. Don’t let your Taoist heart
carry regrets. I want to build a river. The river has upper, middle,
and lower layers. The upper layer flows fastest, connected to
the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk. The middle layer is slower, linked to the Judgment Hall. The lower layer is slowest, leading to the Nether Prison. Based on merit level, spirit souls flow into different layers. The virtuous
can be reincarnated earlier. How can Changgeng get all these ideas? This is the concept of an assembly line
and automated sorting. Gongming, please follow Immortal Yunxiao
to meet His Majesty. Tell him I need
one million heavenly soldiers. They’ve already arrived. By His Majesty’s order, a million heavenly soldiers
are dispatched to assist Water God
in protecting the spirit souls. Senior Yu? The Human is in trouble. How can we stand by? Besides, who’s more suited to build rivers than me? We’re helping Xifang Taoism
resolve their mess. Are you sure you will join us? Consider it repayment
that we can scold them openly. Xifang Taoism’s debt will be paid back in time. But the conflicts among immortals
shouldn’t affect the mortals. Let’s begin. [Day One] Senior Yu, please survey the river path. Senior Duobao and Senior Yuding
will assist. Ensure the river is long enough to properly sort the spirit souls. Senior Yun Zhongzi will forge the tool to distinguish sin and merit. Ordinary water can’t maintain
stable stratification of spirit souls. We must draw water
from the Celestial River. It’s not pure enough and flows too fast. I’ll purify the river water. But we still need to control
the flow speed of each layer. Whoever solves this will be directly promoted upon returning
to the Heavenly Court. Use divine authority
to separate pure from impure. [Day Three
Progress in main channel: 100%] [Progress in each layer: 100%] Step one of the assembly line, material preparation. Release the water.
Guide the spirit souls into the river. Step two, automated sorting. [Merit value] Step three, package and dispatch. Open the Six Paths for Reincarnation to receive the spirit souls. We request permission
from the Tao of Heaven to temporarily relax restrictions
on the Book of Life and Death. It’s done. At the current flow rate, how many spirit souls can we save
in the remaining four days? 40%. Only 40%? For the rest, we’ll have to watch them vanish. Our power has its limits. Don’t push yourself too hard. Is there truly no other way? I have a method
that can save the spirit souls here. [Episode 90] No sages showed up. The Reincarnation Tower
is beyond repair. The Reincarnation Disk is overburdened. What more can I do? How did it come to this? I only wanted
to save those homeless souls. Step aside. The Tower was destroyed
because of people from our sect. If these spirit souls vanish,
it would turn into our sect’s sins. Now, we can only try to save more souls. But what’s the point? These spirit souls can last
no more than seven days. If they can’t reincarnate in time,
they will vanish. The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk
is still down. The Reincarnation Tower is destroyed. Their path to reincarnation
is completely blocked. The Taoism sects’ efforts are futile. We should return to the mountain
and discuss future plans. Wasting our spirit energy here
isn’t wise. Diting, how many spirit souls
are affected this time? These spirit souls have accumulated
over countless years. They’re roughly equivalent to sixty times the current number of Humans
of Nanshanbu Continent. What? Sixty times? Master, stop worrying. You’re protected by merit. Just focus on your cultivation. Even if the catastrophe truly comes, you’ll survive. Shi Lezhi should just die. With the Reincarnation Tower destroyed,
the spirit souls are doomed. We will bear the weight of their sins. The Reincarnation Tower was founded
upon my pure Taoist heart. As long as Master teaches me
how to repair it, the crisis in the West can be resolved. But why hasn’t Master agreed to meet me? Master, everyone else is trying
to clear themselves of blame. Don’t throw yourself into the mess. Why must the Taoism sects
be the center of the world, while our Xifang Taoism
remains a mere side role? Master, I will surely make the West flourish. Since the Taoist sects disdain running
the Three Thousand Worlds, we shall take root and develop there. It will gather merit and guide Humans. Sage Zhunti, Xu Puti controls spirit souls to force
the Six Paths of Reincarnation. This goes against the Tao of Heaven. What can I do? Master, this is
Xifang Taoism’s calamity. Don’t get involved. Whether it’s a calamity
or an opportunity, it all depends on my choice. Master, the Tower’s destruction
is clearly done by the Tao of Heaven. If the Twin Sages interfere directly,
it means opposing the Tao of Heaven. Even sages can’t resolve this.
Why should you…? Master, please teach me
how to repair the Tower. Do you know that once you go, you may hardly return to Ling Mountain? I know. If that weren’t the case,
why would you delay giving the order? To repair this tower, I must have a pure Taoist heart and use myself as the medium. Is that right? You are supposed
to take over my position. If I don’t do this,
countless lives will be in disaster. How can Xifang Taoism
stand in the world? How can we ever see our rise? Master, you brought me
back to Ling Mountain. I’m willing to do this. Now that I’ve achieved my cultivation, it’s time to leave. Everything can’t defy the will
of the Tao of Heaven. Dizang, what are you trying to do now? Do you know how to repair
the Reincarnation Tower? Yes. Our Immortal Contract is fulfilled. Today, I set you free. Go. What a hypocrite. This tragedy here
was all caused by Xifang Taoism. You really think I won’t kill you? I’m different from them. But to some degree,
I’m the same as them. Dizang, the disciple of Sage Jieyin, settled the karmic ties
for our sect today. Water God, for the sake
of the innocent spirit souls, please allow me to restore the Tower. How certain are you? How long will it take? Completely certain. In mere moments. Swear it. The Reincarnation Tower shall merge
with the Six Paths for Reincarnation, free from all interference, obeying only the order of Great Houtu. I, Dizang of Xifang Taoism, hereby swear upon the Great Tao. [Big Brother] Is this acceptable? Dizang. I finally received a bow from you. If they see this,
I’ll have no way to explain myself. Burn this body,
forge the primordial spirit. Fuse the golden lotus,
form the Pearl of Rebirth. If I don’t descend to the netherworld,
then who will? To prove this path,
I must endure for really long. To free all beings bound in pain, I make my vows. May I aid all who suffer for their ways through boundless days. I’ll bring them peace until none remains in pain. Master, I shall never fail the West. [Four days later] After the Reincarnation Tower merged
with the Six Paths for Reincarnation, both processes advanced in sync. Ninety-eight percent
of backlogged spirit souls are properly reincarnated. The river shall remain in the Blood Sea as a connection of Reincarnation Disk
and Reincarnation Tower to aid in the reincarnation
of spirit souls. But the river has yet to be named. General Qin, please name it. The river draws from the Celestial River
and splits into three branches, guiding spirit souls
toward their destined paths. In that case, let’s call it the River of Three Paths. What do you think? [River of Three Paths] River of Three Paths? So that’s how
the River of Three Paths came. It seems many things
are destined by fate. Dizang is truly remarkable. He willingly used his mortal body
to repair the Reincarnation Tower. He only did it to save the West. That’s true, but not completely true. He did help Lu Ya
refine the evil sword many times, intervene in
Jade Emperor’s tribulations, fuel rumors to escalate
Chan-Jie Taoism’s conflict, and lead troops
against multiple Human sects. But what happened today
crossed his bottom line. He sacrificed himself for Xifang Taoism, but what made him do that
without hesitation was the compassion in his heart. You sound moved. It seems you repeatedly claim to be his confidant not just to turn him
against Xifang Taoism. So you saw through it. Xifang Taoism harbors corruption. I simply couldn’t bear to see Dizang
stay with those bad guys. But this time,
with such a great disciple lost, the West is left with nothing
but fools and gluttons. They’ve truly lost. Even so, Xifang Taoism
must not be underestimated. Though the Second Reincarnation Tower
is now under Great Houtu’s command, the Tao of Heaven will still
grant Xifang Taoism its share of fate. Heaven’s fate is to guide all life toward the balance
of Heaven and Earth. When the Name List Catastrophe happens, Xifang Taoism
will gain more say in the matter. Understanding that made me realize that Xifang Taoism’s pursuit
of a second reincarnation path and reckless killing must be punished. However, to prosper the West, the Tao of Heaven should naturally
leave them a way out. And that is Dizang. Unfortunately, my mortal body is gone. I can no longer leave
the Reincarnation Tower in this life. Water God promised
to come and have tea with me. Why hasn’t he shown up yet? Feeling lonely, huh? Do you want me to entertain you? Let’s be clear.
I’m not here to be your mount again. We no longer have an Immortal Contract. If I find a better master,
I’ll just leave. But if you beg me to stay, I might keep you company for a while. Get lost. Go talk to the Jie Taoism immortal. Come on. Why get so worked up? You’re working
for the Lord of Heaven now. Show some patience
and generosity, alright? Hey, why sharpen that blade? I’m serious. I’ll leave. Believe it or not,
I’ll be Water God’s mount. I was wrong. Don’t hit me, Master. Let me tell you a great story, okay? [Ah!] [Vessel of Chaos, Yunxiao’s treasure,
said to exist since creation.] [Contains Heaven and Earth,
connects Four Seas.] [Forward: restores energy;
