Chapter 413 Such a Spiritual Bead
Li Changshou thought about it carefully for a few days and felt that Bai Ze’s theory was reasonable.
The main point was that Bai Ze was very certain that Li Changshou did not know how powerful Bai Ze’s mystical abilities were. It was not convenient for him to ask about Bai Ze’s background...
However, the debate had to continue. The clash of ideas could not stop.
To be safe, he had to finish the remaining questions.
After another three months, Li Changshou finally felt at ease with Bai Ze... about ten percent.
The debate between him and Bai Ze changed from once every three days to once every half a month. He reduced the frequency of him going to the Black Pool Peak to prevent Ling’e from suspecting something that she should not.
Li Changshou roughly told Bai Ze about Youqin Xuanya. Bai Ze did not hesitate and nodded happily.
According to Bai Ze, since he had already become the carriage driver of Ren School, he naturally had to listen to Li Changshou’s orders. Moreover, this matter could increase his reputation.
Although Bai Ze had been hiding in seclusion, he was very concerned about his reputation. In that case, Li Changshou was at ease and boldly handed the mission to... Ao Yi. The Heavenly Courts and the Dragon Palace had secretly sent people to spread the news in the various townhouses of the five continents. They promoted that the “Auspicious Beast Bai Ze” was a symbol of purity and justice. At the same time, they also offset the inherent impression of the “Ten Great Generals of Demons”.
Li Changshou personally drew the “Bai Ze Water Drinking Painting” and “Bai Ze Treading Painting” for Bai Ze. Bai Ze was quite surprised when he saw them.
“My main body is actually so... pleasing to the
eye?”
At that time, Li Changshou could only maintain a smile. Of course, he could not say that he had the Great Dao of painting.
The important thing was the composition and light effects!
At the same time, Li Changshou and Bai Ze worked together for the first time. They created the image of the female War God of the Heavenly Courts for Youqin Xuanya and designed the details of Youqin Xuanya ascending to the heavens.
Youqin Xuanya, who had been in seclusion recently to break through and consolidate her cultivation level, did not know that the team behind the scenes that had pushed her to become the Primordial World idol had already expanded.
Next, he had to wait for Bai Ze’s reputation to slowly rise...
In order to let Bai Ze appear more on screen, apart from the two portraits that had been circulated, Li Changshou was also thinking about finding a suitable time to let Bai Ze go out for a stroll.
When the arrangements were almost done, Li Changshou took the initiative to ask about Daoist Lu Ya.
Bai Ze hesitated for a while before telling Li Changshou something important.
“Water God, don’t force Lu to a dead end. He has a secret treasure in his hand. It’s called the Seven Arrows Book.”
Li Changshou’s heart skipped a beat. He smiled and said, “Is this treasure more powerful than his’ please turn around ‘treasure?”.
“That’s right.” Bai Ze looked serious and nodded slowly. “Excluding the Saints, there will definitely not be more than ten living beings in the Primordial World who know the origins of this treasure. The Seven Arrows Book can kill the Zenith Heaven in an invisible manner. The price of refining it is very high. It is extremely vicious and could be said to be harmful to oneself. However, as long as a wisp of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal’s essence soul is trapped on the straw man, he can worship it every day and shoot arrows at it. Then, the Zenith Heaven will be powerless to resist and turn into blood...”
Bai Ze paused and looked at the calm smile on Li Changshou’s face. He was stunned at first, but he soon understood.
“The Water God already knows?”
“How can I know such a secret?”
Li Changshou’s smile gradually disappeared. He said calmly, “From the looks of it, we really have to get rid of this Lu Ya first. Mr. Bai, this Seven Arrows Book is so powerful. Is there any way to avoid it?”
“According to what I know, there is no way to avoid it, unless we find the place where the other party casts the curse and destroy the straw doll.”
Bai Ze pondered for a while and said, “However, as long as I activate the Seven Arrows Book, I will need to consume luck and merit. With the accumulation of merit of the Water God, I wonder if the Seven Arrows Book can be used. After all, you have to be careful. Moreover, although I know that I shouldn’t say that, Lu Ya is still my nephew. I want to plead for him.”
Li Changshou pondered for a while and shook his head slowly.
“I can’t make the decision on this matter. If I can destroy the Seven Arrows Book and not do anything extreme in the future, I can plead for mercy for Mr. Bai and give him a way out on behalf of the Jade Emperor. However, if he doesn’t leave...”
“Thank you, Water God.” Bai Ze smiled bitterly. “Lu Ya’s temperament is far inferior to his father’s. He will probably not survive.”
I hope so.
Li Changshou answered in his heart and changed the topic.
No matter how strong Bai Ze was, he could not deduce the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. He could not deduce how active Lu Ya would be in the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.
Li Changshou did not have any confidence in taking Lu Xiong’s life. He could only wait for an opportunity to make a move and wait for Lu Xiong to make a mistake during the “Heavenly Demon Confrontation”.
Every move that the Heavenly Courts made against the demons actually contained a deeper meaning.
“Mr. Bai.” Li Changshou looked at the middle-aged Daoist who was glowing in front of him. “Why don’t you show your culinary skills today? I’ll invite the Sect Leader and an elder who has taken care of me in the sect to come over and drink and chat with me.”
Bai Ze said happily, “Alright! I have to show my skills this time!”
After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the kitchen that was growing in size. The entire auspicious beast was in high spirits.
Li Changshou rode a cloud to Pill Tripod Peak and invited Old Master Wan Linyun to attend the banquet.
Elder Wan Linyun was not far from the Golden Immortal Tribulation now. He should be able to reach the Golden Immortal Tribulation in one to two hundred years. It was also good to be tainted by the auspicious beast aura...
Of course, he could not personally invite the Sect Leader. After all, Li Changshou was only an ordinary disciple of the Immortal Du Sect. One jade token was enough.
An hour later, the few of them gathered on the Black Pool Peak.
Li Changshou and Old Master Wan Linyun discussed the Dao of alchemy and poison during the banquet held by Bai Ze and Ling’e.
Sect Leader Ji Wuyou took the initiative to volunteer. He put on the apron that Li Changshou had given Bai Ze and made a move in the kitchen. Bai Ze even found him clumsy...
If the disciples of the Immortal Du Sect saw that, their jaws would probably drop.
If the experts of the demon race who were searching for Bai Ze saw that scene, they might go crazy...
In a hidden palace in the mountains at the edge of the North Continent, Daoist Lu Ya had his hands behind his back as he paced back and forth in front of the throne on the platform. There were more than ten legendary demons sitting on the platform, and most of them had unfriendly expressions.
Below the platform, a few demon kings knelt in the hall while trembling...
“Trash!”
At the end of the platform, a snake-like male demon raised his sharp and ear-piercing voice and cursed at the young demon kings. “Where did the rumors about Marshal Bai Ze come from? Tens of thousands of little demons were released to search for information but all you have to say is you don’t know? It seems that you are used to slacking. I have to teach you!”
The demon kings hurriedly shouted, “Spare us! Please spare us, Patriarch!”
“There’s no need to ask about the origins of the rumors.” An old demon with a goat head stroked his beard and smiled. “In my opinion, someone must have wanted to lure Marshal Bai Ze out.”
Lu Ya frowned and sat back on his throne. He raised his hand and waved at the demon kings below to send them away.
A few old demons made a move at the same time and isolated the hall from the outside world.
Lu Ya said in a low voice, “Marshal Bai Ze has most likely left the five continents. He has no intention of interfering in this matter. It’s already not easy for him to give us a plan.”
“Your Highness!”
The legendary Elder Lu Gong of the demon race sat in the chair and cupped his hands. He asked, “Previously, you went to look for Marshal Bai Ze. Marshal Bai Ze advised us to take advantage of the Heavenly Courts’ weakness to seek revenge and then use the opportunity to repel the Heavenly Soldiers and bargain with the Heavenly Courts... Did Marshal Bai Ze say how to deal with the current situation? Not only did the Heavenly Courts not send troops, they even used words to destroy our morale. We clenched our fists, but we could not fight back. We suspect that Elder Moon of the Heavenly Courts is also causing trouble!”
A white bear harrumphed and said in a muffled voice, “In the past half a year, there have been three couples among our grandchildren. They have all fallen out because of other demons! I’m puzzled. Why would a male demon from the Fox Clan take a liking to my granddaughter’s ten-feet-tall bear form? He’s still so loyal and devoted...”
“Perhaps they’ve taken a liking to each other.”
“No, no. This matter is quite abnormal. Many young and old couples have fallen out.”
An old demon with a crocodile head finally reacted. “Hahahaha! Ten feet tall and wide!”
“Huh?” The old white bear frowned.
“Ahem, I remember something I’m happy about.”
“You’re clearly laughing at our bear race!”
The white bear stood up. His mountain-like body emitted surging demonic aura!
“Today, I’ll let you know what the power of a bear is!”
“You’re the fish! Your entire family is fish! I’m much more realistic than fish. I’m not afraid of you!”
“Enough!”
Lu Ya shouted in a low voice, and a huge purple gourd appeared in his hand.
The two old demons, who were about to fight, instantly quietened down. They snorted and returned to their seats.
The corners of Lu Ya’s mouth twitched slightly as he said calmly, “Continue to send people to search for the source of the rumors regarding Marshal Bai Ze. Don’t cause trouble. We both know that the Heavenly Courts have the support of the Saint. As long as we don’t take the initiative to attack the Heavenly Gate, it’s fine to kill some Heavenly Soldiers. Everyone, please restrain yourself during this critical period. What we want is for the Heavenly Courts to acknowledge the status of the demons in the Primordial World. If we fight with the Heavenly Courts, we will only die. Also, continue to absorb the peripheral demon kings that have nothing to do with the ancient bloodline. The more the better. When the time comes, we will have to use them to appease the Heavenly Courts.”
The dozen old demons stood up at the same time and bowed to Lu Ya.
“Yes, Lord!”
“Ah.” Lu Ya sighed. At that moment, his handsome face was filled with helplessness.
“If Marshal Bai Ze can help us, why should we worry... Forget it. Marshal Bai Ze has been in seclusion for many years and is living a carefree life. He must be living a carefree life in the clouds.”
Duke Lu hurriedly said, “We will naturally do our best to be at your command!”
“I’m very glad to have you guys.”
Lu Ya smiled and said. He kept the curses in his heart, his eyes still filled with worry.
At the same time, on Little Qiong Peak...
“Mr. Bai, stop adding more dishes! Everyone can’t eat anymore!”
“Hahaha, it’s fine, it’s fine. Fellow Daoists, it’s rare for you to be happy. Watch me show you another move!”
Li Changshou shook his head.
Did Ren School obtain a strategist or a chef?
However, based on the daily life of the Ren School, a chef was indeed more useful than a counselor.
The focus of cultivation in the mountain was naturally peace and quietness. The noise would eventually return to silence, and the banquet would eventually end.
They could only have a reunion after a short separation.
During the night, Ji Wuyou, Elder Wan Linyun, Li Changshou, and Ling’e left the Black Pool Peak respectively. Only Bai Ze hummed a little tune and returned to his residence to read the scripts at night.
Three days later, Li Changshou was studying the Eight-Nine Arcane Art on the Little Qiong Peak when his mind was suddenly disturbed.
Li Changshou pinched his fingers slightly and deduced. His mind immediately returned to the paper effigy of the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Residence. He tidied his hair and robe before walking out of the study with his horsetail whisk.
Outside the door, Bian Zhuang was holding a jade token. He lowered his head and reported, “Lord Water God, a Dao Child from the Qianyuan Mountain sent this communication jade token. He said that the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School, Perfected Taiyi, are inviting you to the Golden Light Cave of the Qianyuan Mountain for a banquet!”
“Oh?”
Li Changshou grabbed the jade token and carefully read the contents. He felt the remaining Dao runes on it.
It was indeed Perfected Taiyi who had made some achievements in the Yin-Yang Great Dao.
Why is he looking for me?
Does he want to argue?
Li Changshou pondered for a while and quickly nodded. He said, “I already know about this. Don’t tell anyone.”
“Yes! I will take my leave!”
Bian Zhuang cupped his fists and agreed. He turned around and was about to leave.
Li Changshou had an idea...
“Wait.”
If I deliberately bring a group of Heavenly Soldiers out of the Heaven Gate and swagger to Qianyuan Mountain, I might be surrounded by the demons. That way, I can successfully list Lu Ya’s crimes and let the experts of Chan School attack the demons.
Just as he had that thought, Li Changshou immediately dismissed it.
Indeed, that was a good plan. However, if that was the case, it would be difficult for the Heavenly Soldiers he brought out to survive.
There was no need for such a sacrifice. There were still many ways to defeat the demons. Moreover, the timing was not too good...
Bian Zhuang cupped his fists and asked, “Lord Water God? I’m here. If there’s anything, just tell me.”
Li Changshou thought about it and said warmly, “Deputy Commander Bian, you have contributed to the Hall of Marriage recently. I have an errand here. I wonder if you are interested, Deputy Commander Bian.”
“Even if I have to die, I will do it!”
“There’s no need for that. There’s no need for that.” Li Changshou squinted and chuckled. “I just need you to reveal your personal charm and put it into practice. Previously, Deputy Commander Bian had told Elder Moon all kinds of theories.”
Eh?
Bian Zhuang blinked and was confused.
The Qianyuan Mountain was in the southwest of Kunlun Mountain. It was not too far away from Kunlun Mountain. It was hidden at the border of a few immortal sects. It felt like it was in the city.
Any Qi Refinement cultivator who was more well-informed would know that the Qianyuan Mountain was Perfected Tai Yi’s Dao venue. The few immortal sects also listed the radius of hundreds of kilometers around the mountain as a forbidden area. No one dared to disturb them usually
Naturally, the protective array formation on the mountain could not be broken by ordinary Golden Immortals.
A white cloud floated down from the sky and flew towards Qianyuan Mountain. The white-haired, white-robed old immortal standing on it was naturally the famous Heavenly Courts’ Water God.
It was actually Li Changshou’s high-quality Golden Immortal paper effigy.
When Perfected Taiyi invited him, he did not emphasize that his main body had to come. Li Changshou’s paper effigy was a spiritual incarnation, so it was not considered rude to use it.
Li Changshou was mainly afraid that his main body would be angered by Perfected Taiyi.
Yes, it’s not because he was afraid of death!
Holding Perfected Taiyi’s jade token, Li Changshou flew 150 kilometers away from the Qianyuan Mountain. The seemingly ordinary mountain suddenly shone with golden light, and the outline of a golden bell appeared in the mountain-protecting array formation!
A crack appeared in the array formation. Two familiar figures flew out of the array formation and stood on the cloud, waiting.
The thin Daoist on the left was Perfected Taiyi.
He had sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and a handsome face with distinct edges. He could be considered one of the top male immortals of the three sects.
Unfortunately, he was not a mute.
Beside Perfected Taiyi, the person with an ordinary face and a decent and honest vibe was Perfected Yu Ding.
Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Perfected Yu Ding.
At the very least, when he fought with Perfected Taiyi, there would still be a big shot of Chan School standing up to stop the fight. Li Changshou bowed from thousands of feet away. Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Yu Ding returned the greeting.
However, Perfected Taiyi’s tone was filled with disdain.
“Hehe, I really can’t compare to the senior sisters and junior sisters of Jie School. The Water God goes to the Three-Immortal Island in his main body but he comes to my Qianyuan Mountain as an incarnation instead. Tsk.”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Now that the demons are causing trouble, the journey is not stable. My cultivation level is low. If there are no experts accompanying me, my main body will not dare to move around.”
“Haha, you’re blaming me for not picking you
up!”
Perfected Taiyi made an inviting gesture. “Water God, please. I have something to ask of you today. Let’s talk inside.”
Li Changshou made some small talk and rode a cloud forward. He stood obediently beside Perfected Yu Ding and entered with the two experts of Chan School.
The mountain-protecting array formation closed and isolated the immortal senses that were investigating the place. As soon as he entered the array formation, Li Changshou’s gaze was attracted by the Cave Abode on the cliff in front of him. In front of the Cave Abode, a few children were lined up, holding fruits and wine.
Beside the boys was a “little fairy” who was dressed in a Daoist robe and had a bun on her head. She was dressed much more exquisitely than the boys and was standing at the front. She should be Perfected Taiyi’s... brother?
Wait a moment!
Isn’t Perfected Taiyi’s disciple the spiritual pearl from Nezha’s previous life?
Although Li Changshou had never heard anyone mention Ling Zhuzi in the Primordial World, how could he not know the story of Nezha?
How could Nezha be a woman? Isn’t he Li Jing’s third son?
Could this handsome little fairy be... the senior sister or junior sister of Ling Zhuzi?
Perfected Taiyi landed on the cloud and said in a gentle tone, “Dear disciple, why aren’t you bowing? This is Immortal Changgeng from Ren School, the Heavenly Courts’ Water God. Today, I invited him over to treat you.”
The “little fairy” immediately held his breath. He pinched the corner of his clothes with his small hands and his large eyes flickered. He pursed his lips to accumulate strength before shouting softly, “Greetings... Changgeng... Uncle-Master...”
Li Changshou was confused. If his hearing was bad, he would not have heard his extremely soft voice.
Then, the “little fairy” whispered, “Master, I’m not sick.”
“If you’re not sick, speak loudly.” Perfected Taiyi said warmly, “Act like a male immortal and let me and your Uncle-Master take a look!”
“Yes.”
The “little fairy” agreed. Then, he took a deep breath and stood up. He clenched his fists and punched forward. Waves of air surged from the tip of his fist!
Then, he added in a childish voice, “Ha!”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Perfected Yu Ding silently raised his hands and patted them gently. He squeezed an ugly smile at the “little fairy” Ling Zhuzi, and said in a low voice, “Alright.”
“Ah”
Ling Zhuzi covered his face with both hands and turned around to run back to the Cave Abode, leaving behind a trail of dust and smoke.
“Uncle-Master Yu Ding, you’re so annoying... Master, I am really fine!”
Li Changshou’s eyes lost focus.
Damn it, the three Sea Gods and the future Heavenly Courts’ generals...
Perfected Taiyi could not help but look up and sigh.
“What sin did I commit!?! Changgeng, help me. Think of a way to make him more masculine. Otherwise, I really don’t know how to report to Teacher.”
