My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 559: Mental Demons In The Dream, The Jade Emperor Knows Everything

In the Minor Chiliocosm that was enveloped by the power of the Taiji Painting, a few figures were observing a three-foot-wide ball.

Daoist Duobao was there, so he naturally would not lack Dharma treasures. Such illusionary Dharma treasures were perfect for breaking the defense of the Void Bodhi.

Of course, knee-protecting Dharma treasures were purely accidental.

Yun Zhongzi was there. He observed from the side. He placed his hands behind his back and tiptoed to let me...

“Yes, I’ve learned it. Next.”

In the ball, Li Changshou stood with his hands behind his back. His body had shrunk several times.

In front of Li Changshou, there was an old Daoist priest who was barely breathing. The transparent hole on the old Daoist priest’s body had been blocked by immortal power.

At that moment, with the help of the spherical illusion treasure, Li Changshou successfully invaded the old Daoist priest’s spiritual platform... just like when the old Daoist priest invaded Yang Jian’s spiritual platform.

The Void Bodhi was really miserable.

Li Changshou had planted a mental demon in his Dao heart, and his Dao Body had been imprisoned. His essence soul had been engraved with an ancient talisman that could explode at any time. He had yet to recover any consciousness...

Five figures stood quietly outside the ball. They were all male immortals.

Yun Xiao, Bi Xiao, and Jin Ling, the three fairies of Jie School, and the eldest sister of the phoenix race, Kong Xuan, were gathered beside a pool not far away. They spread a cushion and sat down to chat. There were faint clouds around them, making the male immortals not dare to look at them.

It was obvious that the topic had deviated from what happened today.

Kong Xuan, who originally did not want to have too much interaction with the immortals of the three sects, could not reject Yun Xiao’s invitation to chat.

After all, they had another relationship—sisters-in-law-to-be.

Zhao Gongming looked at the pool and then looked at the ball Dharma treasure in front of him. He looked at the two figures standing and lying in the ball and muttered, “What will they talk about?”

“Why don’t we go over and ask?”

Duobao replied unhappily. There was still a hint of depression on his slightly plump face.

He had been waiting for nothing for a long time. In the end, he started to take action. He did not feel any excitement...

The ones who attacked directly were Jin Ling and Kong Xuan. Yun Xiao and Zhao Gongming were the ones who opened the Cosmic rift and set up various array formations. The ones guarding the several transit arrays were also the incarnations of Bi Xiao, Yun Zhongzi, Perfected Taiyi, and even the Jade Emperor!

He was the first disciple of Jie School and the favorite disciple of the Grandmaster of Heaven. He had been sitting on the cold, remote, and uninhabited broken world for a few days!

He even put it nicely by saying that he was guarding the most crucial place.

In fact, he was just there to watch the show!

If not for the fact that Daoist Duobao had many treasures and casually took out an illusion Dharma treasure, he, the Eldest Senior Brother of Jie School, would have been embarrassed this time...

Duobao asked, “Why didn’t Changgeng kill this person directly? Didn’t this Void Bodhi go against Changgeng and the Heavenly Courts several times previously?”

The Jade Emperor’s incarnation, Quan Tong, smiled and said, “Changgeng... Ahem, Lord Taibai Jinxing has explained to me that the Void Bodhi is more useful than being killed.”

The four male immortals from the Dao Sect looked at him kindly.

They thought that it was better not to expose him.

It was not easy for the Jade Emperor to go out once. Exposing his identity would not only make the Jade Emperor awkward. The few of them had to lower their heads and call him Aunt-Master and His Majesty.

“I know a little about that.”

Perfected Taiyi folded his arms and explained, “This time, it was mainly because the Void Bodhi bumped into the sword. There is a junior in Chan School who Changgeng values. He was bewitched by the Void Bodhi’s spiritual will technique and happened to meet me and Changgeng. That was only twenty days ago. Previously, although the Void Bodhi had gone against the Heavenly Courts and schemed against them a few times, the Heavenly Courts have taken revenge on him. He was in a sorry state, and the two sides were even. Changgeng attacked purely because of that junior.”

Zhao Gongming asked curiously, “Which junior?”

Yun Zhongzi thought of something and asked, “Are you the Jade Emperor’s nephew?”

Quan Dong blinked in surprise.

“Yes.” Perfected Taiyi smiled calmly.

However, he could not help but feel uneasy. After all, Changgeng did not say if he could tell others about it.

If he said too much and ruined Changgeng’s arrangements and affected Yang Jian’s opportunity, it would be bad.

He was not afraid of Changgeng. At most, he would say, “Yu Ding, save me.”

Perfected Taiyi looked at Quan Dong and smiled.

“In order to nurture Yang Jian to become the Heavenly Courts’ Divine General, Changgeng has been suffering from scoldings that he should not have. It also made Yang Jian hate him. This obsession urged Yang Jian to cultivate desperately. Do you know how long it took for Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian to enter the Heaven Immortal realm? Less than a hundred years. Furthermore, he has broken through realms one after another. Without the ascension of the Essence Soul Dao, Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian has been refining his body every day without slacking.”

Quan Dong’s gaze was filled with emotions.

Daoist Duobao’s eyes lit up. He smiled and said, “This Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian’s personality must be very tenacious.”

“This child is indeed very outstanding. However, everyone, please keep this matter a secret. Don’t ruin Junior Brother Changgeng’s arrangements.”

Perfected Taiyi was serious for once and continued, “This Void Bodhi is aiming for the identity of the Jade Emperor’s nephew, Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian. It’s not the first time it has been secretly bewitched. It thought that it was done flawlessly, but it’s actually all under our watch. Changgeng was in a hurry to attack the Void Bodhi because he was afraid that Yang Jian would be angered by the Void Bodhi and end his Obsession Cultivation too early.”

Daoist Duobao asked, “Then why don’t we just kill the Void Bodhi?”

“I’m not Changgeng. How can I understand Changgeng’s thoughts?”

Perfected Taiyi shook his head. “One thing is certain. Changgeng wants to use the Void Bodhi identity. Or rather, he could use the Void Bodhi to continue agitating Yang Jian. He turned the variable that was originally not under his control into a trump card in his hand... This is probably the plan of the first level of Lord Taibai Jinxing.”

“Ss...”

Quan Dong rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought. He muttered, “How many levels did Lord Star Lord plan this time?”

The immortals of the Dao Sect looked at each other and smiled.

Daoist Duobao raised his eyebrows at Perfected Taiyi, who smiled awkwardly.

He was purely trying to gain more benefits for Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian in the future. He was not praising this heartless Li Changgeng!

Lord Taibai Jinxing was vicious!

...

Laughter, laughter, the voices of people in the distance, everything seemed like a dream that he had yet to cultivate.

As soon as the Void Bodhi regained consciousness, his heart skipped a beat. His immortal senses were imprisoned, his six senses were sealed, and his essence soul was engraved with blood-colored patterns...

‘Am I being held hostage?’

This ridiculous thought surged in his heart. The Void Bodhi wanted to laugh coldly. He felt that the other party really did not take the two teachers seriously. He was different from the disciples of the Saints beside the treasure pool on the spiritual mountain. He had too much dirt from the Western Sect.

However, the Void Bodhi fell into deep thought again.

He seemed to have been captured by the other party for a long time. His teacher did not save him...

Who is the other party? Why did he capture me and not kill me?

The Void Bodhi tried to create some commotion. The feeling of having his six senses sealed was not good.

Suddenly, he heard a cold laughter. The Void Bodhi felt the shadows and sounds around him surge over at the same time. Light spots appeared in front of his eyes. His essence soul barely opened his eyes.

She immediately saw that he was lying on a mirror-like lake. The surface of the lake reflected the stars.

Illusion.

The Void Bodhi was knowledgeable. He saw through the layout of the place at a glance. However, when he saw the figure sitting cross-legged not far away, his body suddenly tensed up.

Eldest Senior Brother?!

Isn’t the slightly plump figure sitting hundreds of feet away from the Maitreya?

The Void Bodhi was confused. He did not know why Maitreya had attacked him. However, if that was the case, it could explain why his teacher did not protect him.

Or is this Teacher’s intention?

Maitreya smiled faintly and said, “Junior Brother, are you awake?”

That terrifying smile...

It was indeed his Eldest Senior Brother.

“Senior Brother, what do you mean?”

The Void Bodhi’s essence soul sat up in the illusion and continued to distinguish the truth of the Maitreya in front of him. His Dao heart was completely tense.

“Maitreya” only smiled and did not say anything. His figure gradually dissipated, leaving behind a sentence.

“Think about it yourself. Why should I attack you?”

The Void Bodhi’s essence soul trembled slightly. He wanted to say something but hesitated. When Maitreya’s figure dissipated, he could not help but look down at his “hands”.

What did he do wrong?

The starlight above his head flickered, and the illusion quickly collapsed. Finally, it turned into a cage that was dozens of feet wide.

Outside the illusion, the spherical numinous treasure flickered. Li Changshou emerged from it and heaved a sigh of relief.

Did I make any mistakes when I pretended to be the Buddha?

The characteristics and expressions of the Maitreya were obtained by the Golden Roc from Truth Listener. From the Void Bodhi’s first reaction, there should be no mistakes.

Back then, the Golden Roc had used the Divine Slaughtering Spear to press against Truth Listener’s forehead. According to Truth Listener’s nature, what it said should not be a lie.

After all, the only thing that could go wrong with its lies was its own scheme.

What he could do was a mythical beast banquet.

Daoist Duobao hurriedly asked, “Changgeng, how is it?”

“The first step has been taken steadily.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “The next step is to destroy his Dao heart step by step and cover the growth of his mental demons. Thank you, Senior Brothers, for helping out.”

Perfected Taiyi pursed his lips. “This verbal commendation is the old Heavenly Courts’ authority.”

Quan Dong, who was at the side, was about to speak when Li Changshou took the opportunity to say, “We still have to wait for a few days. Why don’t we drink and compose songs here and talk about the Great Tribulation?”

The immortals agreed. Perfected Taiyi smiled awkwardly and was arranged by Li Changshou to set up the venue.

Hence, the handsome male immortal in a red robe threw the meditation cushion on the ground, piled the wine bottles and glass cups, and rolled his eyes as he went to cut the tree and made a round table made of raw wood.

He was not good at creating objects.

Li Changshou invited Qiong Xiao to help. He took out the ingredients, wine, and immortal fruits that he had prepared in advance and held a banquet.

It was as if Perfected Taiyi had guessed correctly. Creating a Void Bodhi was just a coincidence. Today, the three sects’ representatives were gathering for a meal.

Not long after, the banquet was filled with fragrance and laughter.

The five male immortals gathered together, and the four female immortals gathered together. Li Changshou’s paper effigy, was running around in the form of the “number one family cook” in the Primordial World.

Quan Dong ate the dishes meticulously prepared by his beloved. Although it was not the first time he tasted them, his eyes still lit up and he kept praising them.

Fairy Yun Xiao smiled and tasted most of the dishes. She only cared about chatting with Kong Xuan and tried her best not to let him feel that he was being neglected by the immortals of the Dao Sect.

It was more natural for Ling’e to do that.

After Qiong Xiao helped cook most of the food, she slacked off and ran over to play with the Goddess of Golden Spirit. From time to time, she would give her brother a look, causing Zhao Gongming to squint and laugh. From time to time, his face would turn red.

Duobao smiled and said, “Changgeng, don’t be busy. Come and drink.”

Only then did Li Changshou stop working. He carried the last two dishes and sat beside Fairy Yun Xiao.

Naturally, his immortal senses were focused on the Void Bodhi.

“Come, Changgeng toasts to all Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters and General Quan Dong. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to help me capture this thief.”

The immortals raised their cups to welcome him and drank their wine.

Zhao Gongming leaned forward and asked softly, “Changgeng, how many levels have you schemed this time?”

“This time...” Li Changshou carefully calculated and deliberately omitted the few levels with a lower chance of success. “It’s just three or four levels. It’s mainly for Yang Jian. Senior Brother Taiyi probably could not hold it in just now and told everyone the reason. That way, I can speak less.”

Perfected Taiyi was speechless. He cursed, “Am I really that easy to guess?”

The immortals could not help but smile.

Yun Zhongzi asked, “Changgeng, the Great Tribulation is still confusing. What can we pay attention to?”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit also said, “The flames of war have already spread across the trichiliocosm. The living beings have suffered heavy casualties. The undercurrents in the Middle Continent and the friction between the immortal sects are endless... Does the Heavenly Courts allow this matter to develop, or have they already thought of a way to stop it?”

Li Changshou said, “The two of you are actually talking about the same thing. However, I can only tell you regretfully that I don’t know about this matter. The Heavenly Courts also don’t know.”

“Ahem.” Quan Dong stood up in time and supported his beloved subject. He smiled and said, “Lord Star Lord, I heard from an old man in the Heavenly Courts that this Great Tribulation is most likely divided into three stages. It corresponds to the three Great Magi-Demon Wars in the ancient times.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

He had taken the initiative to play dumb with his family!

Forget it. If the Jade Emperor wants to say that, let him be. There are no outsiders here.

The incarnation number that the Jade Emperor had racked his brains to come up with was really accurate.

Quan Dong understood everything and the Heavenly Emperor.

The Jade Emperor’s incarnation smiled and said, “With the discussion in the Purple Cloud Palace as the dividing point, it was the initial stage of the Great Tribulation. After that, it will be the current period. It is the stage where the Great Tribulation accumulates the casualties of living beings and slows down the burden of the world. The final stage is the true descent of the tribulation.”

“Doesn’t the Heavenly Courts care about the expedition of these immortal sects?” the Goddess of Golden Spirit asked with a frown.

Quan Dong pondered for a while and said, “The Heavenly Courts can’t go against the Heavenly Dao and interfere with the operation of the Great Tribulation. There are too many Qi Refinement cultivators in the world. In the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, Qi Refinement cultivators are no different from mortals. They occupy too much spiritual energy and vitality in the world. Therefore, during the Great Tribulation, the Heavenly Courts focused on protecting mortals. At the same time, they will recruit people with good morals and benevolence into the Heavenly Courts. However, they will interfere more with the Great Tribulation.”

The immortals nodded slowly.

Perfected Taiyi held his wine glass and shook his head. He could not help but put it down.

“Let me interrupt. The Heavenly Courts’ intention is to just sit this one out and reap the spoils later, right? Don’t they care that the Heavenly Courts was the one who started this calamity?”

“I can’t say that I’m taking advantage of the situation,” Quan Dong said. “Although the Great Tribulation was triggered by the Heavenly Courts, the root of it is not the Heavenly Courts. Perfected One, don’t forget that there was a calamity in the world first. The calamity schemed against the demons and the Heavenly Courts. It also destroyed Changgeng’s master and forced him to enter the calamity and kill the last Golden Crow. Only after that did the Heavenly Courts attack the demons. During that process, there was the intervention of the calamity, which resulted in a series of subsequent calamities. In other words, the Heavenly Courts is just a catalyst for the Great Tribulation to descend. The root of the Great Tribulation is the reproduction of the descendants in the ancient war. The Dao Sect is everywhere, and the number of Qi Refinement cultivators is rapidly increasing. Now, the total power of living beings has exceeded the burden of the world.”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit asked, “I’ve always been puzzled about this matter. Why does the power of living beings affect the stability of the world? Although we always talk about the Nine Pollution Spring, why have we never heard of such a thing in ancient times? I believe that the total power of living beings in the ancient world far exceeds that of today... Could it be that it’s just because the Heavenly Dao thinks so?”

Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Senior Sister, be careful with your words.”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit pursed her lips and did not express her dissatisfaction.

Yun Zhongzi said, “I feel that the so-called power of living beings is difficult to endure in the world. I mean that once the power of living beings loses control and the ancient battle erupts, the world will be completely shattered.”

“No.” Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and shook his head. “With six Saints around, how can the world be shattered? Saints can refine wind, fire, water, and earth. This is a level that not even a hundred mighty figures can achieve.”

However, Quan Dong smiled and said, “Just as Perfected Taiyi once said, Saints are also divided into strong and weak. This matter cannot be discussed in general. However, I can tell you more here. The danger of the Nine Polluted Spring did exist. It was related to the death of the Fiend Ancestor in the past. The Fiend Ancestor’s Dao has not completely shattered, causing the world to become unstable. The Fiend Ancestor’s Dao is to pursue the destruction of the world and return living beings to the True Spirit River. The Dao of the Dao Ancestor is the opposite.”

Daoist Duobao said seriously, “Then, is there a fixed number of ways to carry out the final killing tribulation?”

“There’s no fixed number for now. We can only wait for the tide to subside before the truth is revealed.”

Quan Dong said seriously, “However, it must have been launched among the three sects in response to the tribulation. Therefore, if we can quickly wipe out the Western Sect when the killing tribulation arrives, the Dao Sect should have fewer casualties.”

Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and sighed. “The Western Sect also has two Saints protecting it, especially Second Uncle-Master... It’s easier said than done.”

Perfected Taiyi frowned and said, “It’s just a joke. Don’t joke with Teacher.”

Li Changshou immediately tried to smooth things over.

“We’re just chatting today. Don’t involve the Saints. There’s no need to take our stand in the future.The Great Tribulation is the Great Tribulation. You and I are still the same. Now that the Great Tribulation has yet to end, there might still be some leeway for everything. Brother Gongming, can I play with your Sea-Calming Divine Pearls?”

“Take it!”

Zhao Gongming waved his hand and the twenty-four pearls flew in front of Li Changshou. They immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

Zhao Gongming smiled and said, “Don’t talk about playing with it. Brother, what’s wrong with using it?”

“Brother, you can’t lend me your treasure casually,” Li Changshou specially reminded him. Then, he sized up the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl.

He was thinking about how to remind Zhao Gongming that thing could evolve into the twenty-four heavens.

Qiong Xiao wiped the corners of her mouth and smiled. “It’s just a treasure. What can I comprehend?”

“It’s not about comprehending anything.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “The Sea-Calming Divine Pearl is in fact, not just a water-type Dharma treasure. Every pearl seems to contain an endless world. By the way, is there anything else missing from this set of pearls?”

Zhao Gongming pondered for a while and muttered, “I’ve always felt that there might be twelve of them missing. If there are thirty-six Sea-Calming Divine Pearls, their power can’t be estimated.”

“Can you let me take a look?”

Quan Dong said. Li Changshou was slightly stunned. Zhao Gongming had already agreed with a smile.

He was truly righteous. He was not afraid of others tampering with his intrinsic Dharma treasure.

Quan Dong received a pearl and carefully sensed it. He closed his eyes again and a wisp of rich Heavenly Dao power shone from his palm. Soon, he exclaimed softly and muttered.

That sentence frightened Zhao Gongming so much that his hand trembled slightly. Daoist Duobao frowned, but Li Changshou smiled. The others looked over.

The Jade Emperor muttered a famous sentence in the Primordial World.

“This treasure is actually fated with my Heavenly Courts.”
