The Sixty-Ninth Day: The Mysterious Woman Descends to the Mundane World
Yuanshi Tianzun said, "As for Kunpeng, it's tolerable. After all, he is the Holy Master of the Human Tribe and has a say in the affairs of the Human Emperor. However, Haotian is just a child, yet he dares to intervene in this matter of the Human Emperor. It's clear that he doesn't put us Saints in his eyes."
The Supreme Elder said, "Although it is so, at present, unless the Heavenly Master allows his disciples to take action, there is no way for Huang Tian to assist, and whether Xuanyuan can defeat Chiyou is still uncertain. Although Xuanyuan is the human emperor recognized by us saints, the Great Way has fifty chapters, Heaven has forty-nine transformations, and all things have a thread of life. If Chiyou defeats Xuanyuan, then the position of human emperor can also be transferred, so for now it's not the time to calculate gains and losses with Huang Tian."
Yuanshi Tianzun said with a pretended tone: "We are the Three Pure Ones, and we can benefit Tongtian Junior Brother, but we cannot take advantage of Haotian."
Yuanshi Tianzun would not allow Tongtian Jiao to interfere with the affairs of Ren Huang, he said this on one hand to show his friendliness in front of Taishang Laojun, and on the other hand to see what attitude Taishang Laojun had towards Tongtian Jiao.
The Supreme Elder naturally understood the meaning of Yuanshi Tianzun's words, and he looked at Yuanshi Tianzun deeply, saying: "Tongtian Shidi has many disciples under his door, with a reputation for attracting ten thousand immortals. Among the Three Purities, his power is the greatest. If we let him intervene in the affairs of the Human Emperor, then the world of Honghuang will be dominated by his sect alone."
After understanding the meaning of Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but put down the big stone in his heart. He was afraid that Taishang Laojun would join forces with Jie Teaching because his own disciples were not competitive enough to stabilize the struggle of the human tribe. Upon hearing Taishang Laojun's words, he also understood that although Taishang Laojun appeared calm and serene on the surface, in reality, he was actually wary of Tongtian Teachings' master.
With the support of Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun finally breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily didn't have to worry about the affairs of the Human Emperor. However, he was extremely dissatisfied with Haotian's opportunistic behavior and planned to let Guangchengzi and others give Jiutian Xuannu a warning, letting Haotian know whose world this is now.
But what he never expected was that just as he was preparing to take revenge on Hu Tian, his disciples gave him a big 'surprise'. Guang Chengzi and other immortals were thinking about how to deal with Chi You's 'Xuanyin Great Array' when the Nine Heavens Goddess descended to assist Huangdi under the order of Hu Tian, telling Guang Chengzi the method to deal with the 'Xuanyin Great Array'. Guang Chengzi was also desperate and did not consider why the Nine Heavens Goddess would come to his aid, so he hastily went to Liubo Mountain to kill the Kui Niu beast and take its skin to make a war drum.
After seeing the actions of Guang Chengzi, Yuanshi Tianzun was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. However, things had come to this point and he couldn't change them. The power of the Heavenly Court had already penetrated deep into Xuanyuan's mind, and the human race had also changed its original views, generating a bit of goodwill towards the Heavenly Court.
The Supreme Elder Lord sighed deeply upon learning of Guang Chengzi's actions, and was also extremely disappointed in the disciples under Yuan Shi Tian Zun, who couldn't even see through the calculations of the Heavenly Court, and foolishly made a wedding dress for someone else.
The Kui Cow Beast of Liubo Mountain, although its cultivation was not great, was also a member of the demon tribe. Guang Chengzi's behavior made Nuwa extremely angry. After the Great War between the Wizards and Demons, the demon tribe suffered heavy losses, and many powerful demons fell. Although the Kui Cow Beast's cultivation was not high, its talent was excellent, and with proper training, it would definitely become a top-notch expert. However, before Nuwa could take action, the Kui Cow Beast was killed by Guang Chengzi. This made Nuwa, who had originally wanted to help Xuan Yuan, no longer care about the survival of Xuan Yuan or the Xian Teachings.
Kunpeng returned to the North Ming Sea and did not retreat to cultivate, but continued to pay attention to the movements of the Xuanjiao immortals. Several of his disciples also gathered together with Kunpeng to watch the actions of the Xuanjiao.
Kun Peng saw Guang Chengzi being induced by the Nine Heavens Xuan Nü to kill the Kui Niu beast, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that Guang Chengzi has been oppressed by Chi You to the point of being somewhat mentally disordered. He didn't even understand the intentions of the Nine Heavens Xuan Nü before taking reckless action. It seems that he will be able to obtain very little merit from Ren Huang Xuanyuan, and he has completely lost face for the Tian Jiao."
The disciples under Kunpeng Gate were mostly honest and kind-hearted people, and they didn't think that Guang Chengzi's behavior was inappropriate. Only the girl asked: "Teacher, this move of teaching the immortals seems to be quite reasonable. If we have the war drum made of Kui cowhide, then the great army of Huangdi Xianyuan won't be affected by Chiyou's 'Xuanyin Great Formation', which would be very beneficial for them."
"Girl, you're still young and inexperienced, only seeing the surface of things without noticing the hidden schemes behind them. The Nine Heavens Xuan Nü seemed to be teaching Guang Chengzi how to deal with Chi You's 'Xuan Yin Great Array', but in reality, she didn't have good intentions. After the great war between the witches and demons, both sides suffered heavy losses, and many lives were lost. Although Qiu Niu Shou was a talented beast, it wasn't considered much among the demon tribe before, but now things are different. Many powerful demons fell in the great war, and beasts like Qiu Niu Shou are now the hope of the demon tribe. Guang Chengzi killed Qiu Niu Shou, eliminating Chi You's threat, but also offended the demon tribe's sacred being, Nü Wa Niang Niang. Can Chi You be more powerful than a saint? Although Guang Chengzi has Yuanshi Tianzun backing him up, Nü Wa Niang Niang can't do much to him for now, but offending a saint is no small matter. Originally, Nü Wa Niang Niang had some support for the Xuan teachings, but from now on, it's unlikely that will continue."
The girl said: "Teacher, if the Xuan Yuan army can't break through Chi You's 'Mysterious Yin Array' even with the support of Nüwa, then they are not a match for Chi You and there is no future to speak of."
Gonggong smiled and said, "Chiyou's 'Xuanyin Great Formation' is indeed a rare formation, but in the eyes of the Sage, it's nothing special. Breaking this formation isn't particularly difficult either. In fact, when Guangchengzi and others came down from the mountain to assist Emperor Huangdi Xianyuan, Yuanshi Tianzun had already prepared a way for them to deal with everything. It's just that Guangchengzi and others were too narrow-minded and didn't understand Yuanshi Tianzun's intention, which gave Chiyou the opportunity to defeat them."
"However, I watched the entire battle between Xuan Yuan and Chi You, and couldn't help but ask: 'Master, in the several battles between Xuan Yuan and Chi You, it seems that there's nothing particularly noteworthy about the teachings of the various deities?'"
Kun Peng said, "That's because you don't understand the Yuanshi Tianzun, so you think that way. The Yuanshi Tianzun is the most face-loving among the Three Purities, and he can make the Xuanxian teachings support Xuanyuan, which means he must have given them the ability to decide the outcome of the battle. It's just that the Xuanxian teachings are too low in their state of mind, and when faced with a sudden attack, they don't have any resistance at all, which is why they lost three times. Chiyou was able to resist the Xuanxian teachings only because of the 'Xuanyin Great Array' revised from the 'Twelve Heaven God Killing Great Array'. This 'Xuanyin Great Array' seems powerful, but in fact it doesn't even have a fraction of the power of the 'Twelve Heaven God Killing Great Array', and now Chiyou's 'Xuanyin Great Array' is only at its initial stage, so its power is pitifully small. The Xuanxian teachings all have the cultivation of Golden Immortals, and as long as they pay a little attention, they can completely break through Chiyou's 'Xuanyin Great Array' with their own spiritual treasures."
Hou Yi had experienced the Great War of Witchcraft and had also learned from Zu Wu the 'Twelve Heavenly Gods' Killing Array'. He naturally knew how powerful this array was. Chi You's 'Mysterious Yin Array' was far inferior to the 'Twelve Heavenly Gods' Killing Array', but it was not something that a Golden Immortal could decipher either. Just then, he asked: "Master, since Chi You's 'Mysterious Yin Array' is derived from the 'Twelve Heavenly Gods' Killing Array', can the cultivation of the Xuanmen sect's immortals really break through it?"
Kun Peng smiled and said, "Chi You's 'Xuanyin Great Array' is just a small trick from the side door, it didn't even learn the core of the 'Twelve Du Tian Shen Sha Great Array', so there are huge flaws. As long as it's a pure Yang or Town Soul spirit treasure, it can restrain it. This is also why Jiutian Xuan Nu let Guang Chengzi kill Kui Niu Shou and use its skin to make war drums."
Wu Dao said: "The two spiritual treasures mentioned by the teacher are very rare in the vast wilderness. If Guang Chengzi doesn't kill the Kui Niu beast, it's likely that he won't be able to find these two types of spiritual treasures in a short period of time."
Kunpeng said: "Yuanshi Tianzun, as one of the Three Pure Ones, is far superior to Lingbao. Before the Xuanmen deities descended the mountain, Yuanshi Tianzun had already bestowed some of his collected treasures upon them. As I know, among these treasures was a Pre-Heavenly Spirit Treasure called 'Zhenhun Zhong' that can counter Achiyou's 'Xuanyin Great Array'. Even if Guangchengzi and others were unable to break through the array, they could have asked Yuanshi Tianzun for another plan. As Yuanshi Tianzun is a man who loves face-saving, he would have bestowed his Pre-Heavenly Treasure upon Guangchengzi if needed. The 'Pangu Fan' in his possession is the most powerful attacking treasure among all Pre-Heavenly Treasures. How could Achiyou's small 'Xuanyin Great Array' possibly withstand the attack of such a Pre-Heavenly Treasure? That's why I said Guangchengzi was too careless and completely lost face for Xuanmen, causing Yuanshi Tianzun to lose face in front of all the saints."
Wu Dao listened to Kun Peng's words and said in surprise: "Master, Yuan Shi Tian Zun is a saint, he won't give away his pre-heavenly spiritual treasure that suppresses his aura just for Chi You's 'Mysterious Yin Great Formation', will he?"
Kunpeng looked at Wudao and said, "Wudao, you have also been a disciple of the master for some years and have experienced the Great War of Witchery. You should know that saints will do whatever it takes to protect their own Dao. The reason why the war was so brutal is because there were saints involved who wanted to force both tribes out of the Hongyuan, so they could pass on their Dao. Although 'Pangu Fan' is very important, Yuanshi Tianzun attaches great importance to the Dao in the human tribe. Moreover, since 'Pangu Fan' was bestowed by Daozu Hongjun, no one dares to covet it. What's wrong with giving it to a disciple to break the 'Xuanyin Great Array'?"
Wu Dao thought for a moment and realized that he had underestimated the importance of the Saints' attention to the Taoist sect. At the same time, he also understood why his teacher, as the Human Saint Master, had begun to keep a low profile among humans after the Great War against the Witch Demons, no longer interfering with human affairs. It was all because of the existence of the Saints, which forced his teacher to do so.
