Chapter 583: Gentle

“Unknowingly, Changgeng’s strength is already so astonishing. He is much more composed than when he faced the demons back then.”

Quan Dong looked at the situation under the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, his eyes filled with emotions.

Daoist Duobao, who was traveling with Quan Dong, naturally knew the background of the Jade Emperor’s incarnation. Although he did not call him Uncle-Master directly, he was very polite.

After all, the fate of the three sects was in the Jade Emperor’s hands.

Daoist Duobao smiled and said, “Junior Brother Changgeng’s comprehension is excellent. His achievements today are the result of his own hard work.”

“That’s right. His comprehension has always been good.”

Quan Dong put his hands behind his back. There was a reminiscing look in his eyes. He said calmly, “When Changgeng first came to the Heavenly Courts, the Jade Emperor was very puzzled. At that time, the Heavenly Courts were poor. Only the lonely king and ministers relied on each other. There were not many people in the Primordial World who knew about the Heavenly Courts. When the Heavenly Courts were mentioned, only the things that the six Saints had done in the past were mentioned. In the past, there was the Demon Court that had been overthrown by the human race. Behind it, there were countless immortal sects of the Middle Continent. The position of the Heavenly Courts was extremely awkward. Changgeng believed in the Heavenly Courts and threw himself into the Heavenly Courts without hesitation. He led the Heavenly Courts to where they are today.”

Daoist Duobao squinted and smiled, although he wanted to say...

If he looked back at Changgeng’s growth trajectory, this fellow should have known that the Heavenly Courts was about to become the activator of the Great Tribulation. He should have sneaked into the Heavenly Courts in advance to avoid calamity.

It should be an illusion.

“Everything is arranged by Uncle-Master.”

“The Three Pure Ones of the Dao Sect are really Saints.”

Then, the Jade Emperor’s incarnation and Daoist Duobao looked at each other and smiled. Everything was silent.

In the area enveloped by the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, several ferocious demons were slashed by Li Changshou’s spear. At that moment, Li Changshou was already covered in blood and had some wounds on his body.

After the armor formed by the immortal power was shattered, it revealed a body that was like the muscles of an old tree. His long hair danced wildly like a demon god.

Yang Jian was speechless.

He finally knew why he had been slapped on the cloud.

He took back what he had said previously. It was too arrogant of him to be able to catch up to Lord Taibai Jinxing after cultivating for hundreds of years. He did not know the immensity of the world.

He had also heard others say that he was the son of the Great Tribulation. He had great luck to protect him and would definitely shine in the future.

I can’t dodge. I don’t have a chance. Don’t think about it.

If he had to ask Yang Jian to say something at this moment, the word that emerged in his heart would be “farewell”.

If Yang Jian were to do anything here, he would silently take out a Shadow-Retaining Ball that he had prepared previously.

As a professional recorder of the Heavenly Courts, it was necessary to have such a Dharma treasure to capture the wonders.

When he returned to Mount Mei, he opened his personal copper mirror and released the scene. He imitated Bian Zhuang’s voice and said, “The members of the Heavenly Courts entertain each other. This is a recorder, Yang Jian. What I’m showing you now is a precious video of a battle. Lord Taibai Jinxing fought fourteen outer demons. That’s right. The person who is wearing a faceplate and fighting with the external demons in the wisps of Mysterious Yellow aura is the leader of the Heavenly Courts’ officials, Lord Taibai Jinxing, Li Changgeng. You don’t believe me? To be honest, I don’t believe it either. I feel like I’m in a dream. The kind-looking old immortal tore his clothes and rushed forward with a roar. The combat power of the Heavenly Courts is ten battles. Lord Taibai Jinxing takes six. The ministers take five. The generals take one...”

“Disciple-Nephew, Disciple-Nephew? Yang Jian?”

“I’m here!”

Yang Jian, who was in a daze, immediately replied. He cupped his fists and bowed to Perfected Taiyi.

Perfected Taiyi smiled and said warmly, “Did Changgeng’s heroic appearance affect your Dao heart?”

Perfected Yu Ding looked over with concern.

Yang Jian smiled bitterly and did not know how to respond.

Yu Ding said, “There’s no need to compare yourself to others. The Dao is only true.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Yang Jian agreed, but he could not recover from the shock.

At that moment, something happened in the area enveloped by the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.

Li Changshou was in the midst of fighting. His Dao Body seemed to be gradually activated. The more he fought, the more valiant he became. He could not resist. The Little God-Slaying Spear seemed to have merged with his arm. It moved forward and did not stop at all.

The pure physical combat technique made his blood boil.

Hence, Li Changshou took out a few Dharma treasures that had been left in a corner for a long time, and began to sacrifice it.

The most eye-catching one was naturally a purple and white gourd—Lu Ya’s Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber.

Li Changshou would not forget the famous treasure of killing in his hometown. He still wanted to create more trouble in the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. The huge gourd was also an important tool.

Over the years, he had been refining the gourd. Although he did not communicate much with the Soul Essence sealed in the gourd, he was more or less clear about the complicated structure of the gourd.

At that moment, he could use it to test its effect.

Therefore, Li Changshou looked at an opening and held the Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber in his left hand. The gourd spat out a white fog that condensed into a pair of sharp eyebrows.

At that moment, the seven to eight black shadows that had been suppressed by Li Changshou jumped and immediately dodged.

Li Changshou activated the Dharma treasure gourd and stared at the humanoid creature with a low cultivation level. He shouted softly, “Treasure, please turn around!”

In the blink of an eye, the eyebrows first glared at the figure. Two red lines shot out from the eyes and locked onto the person’s essence soul, causing the person to sway and almost fall unconscious.

Without any warning, his eyebrows suddenly changed direction. A ray of white light shot out from the mouth of the gourd and went straight for Li Changshou’s forehead!

At that moment, for some reason, Li Changshou, who was hiding 30 feet away from the huge gourd, quickly punched. The tip of his fist met the white light and instantly shattered it.

Blood splattered. Li Changshou’s left fist left a deep wound that could be seen. He frowned and looked at the huge gourd that had suddenly “betrayed”.

At that moment, he wanted to destroy the God-Conferment Treasure.

However, he still stabilized his hand. Two wisps of Yin-Yang Qi surged out of his sleeve and forcefully sealed the Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber. He pulled it back into Li Changshou’s hand.

The immortals of the Dao Sect frowned when they saw that. Fairy Yun Xiao could not help but want to go forward to check on Li Changshou’s injuries. The remaining seven experts who had escaped could not recover.

The demons there were once ferocious people of the Primordial World. They could not stay in the Primordial World any longer and escaped into the Chaos Sea.

They reacted quickly. When they saw that Li Changshou had been thwarted by their Dharma treasures, how could they let go of such an opportunity?

He activated his Dharma treasures and unleashed his mystical abilities. Some even ignited the power of their essence souls and wanted to unleash their strongest attack on Li Changshou. They wanted to fight to the death and find a chance to survive in the desperate situation.

However, Li Changshou’s attention was focused on the Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber. He had already achieved a few of his goals and did not want to waste any more time.

He released the Little God-Slaying Spear with his right hand and raised his palm. Black and white light bloomed quietly. The Connate Cardinal treasure, the Taiji Painting, transformed into a diameter of thousands of feet and enveloped Li Changshou’s head. It pierced through the aura of the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda without any resistance.

Li Changshou swept his gaze over and said calmly, “Seal.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the remaining seven figures stopped at almost the same time.

The mystical ability was disintegrated, and the Dharma treasure lost its spirituality. The burning essence soul was instantly restrained by the Yin and Yang Qi. The figure that was flying forward was immediately stuck in the air.

The power of the Taiji Painting was actually terrifying!

Of course, it was terrifying...

Li Changshou silently took out a bottle of pills from his sleeve and poured it into his mouth. He tried his best to endure the exhaustion in his heart and keep himself calm.

The price of taking the initiative to use the Taiji Painting was that 80% of the immortal power in his body was instantly extracted, and his mind was almost broken by the Yin-Yang of Taiji.

Although it was cool, it was clearly not a treasure that he could use at his current stage.

‘This is the difference in strength between me and the Great Daoist Master.’

He also thought that Senior Brother Xuan Du’s activation of the Taiji Painting was a little troublesome for the Taiji Painting...

The Grand Pure One’s strength is really terrifying.

Li Changshou sighed in his heart and threw all distracting thoughts to the back of his mind. He retracted the Pagoda Master and several figures appeared around him.

...

In the void of the Primordial Heavenly Dao barrier.

The eight human-shaped shadows were trapped by the Yin and Yang Qi and were in a daze.

Before they returned, they carefully searched for a while and discovered a ferocious human who had pretended to be dead and escaped into the Chaos Sea in the ancient times. They also brought him back.

Those corpses were strictly dealt with according to Li Changshou’s standards.

Looking at the ashes scattered into the Chaos Sea, Li Changshou could not help but reminisce about the time when he had lost a dragon.

That was also his lost youth...

At that moment, Li Changshou stood at the side with a sullen face. He looked at the “silent” huge gourd in his hand and used the Yin and Yang Qi to seal two more restrictions before throwing them beside the eight black shadows.

The immortals did not understand. Duobao even asked, “Changgeng, what do you mean?”

“We’ll interrogate it together,” Li Changshou said calmly. “If you don’t give me an explanation for this, we’ll deal with it as traitors today.”

The immortals could not help but smile.

Zhao Gongming shook his hands and smiled.

“Fellow Immortals, please avoid them. Fellow Daoists who can’t bear to see such a ferocious scene, avoid them as well. It’s not easy to obtain some information from them.”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit snorted softly. “Junior Sisters, let’s go over there and wait.”

Fairy Yun Xiao, the Goddess of Wudang, and the Goddess of Turtle Spirit agreed. They went to the void not far away with the Goddess of Golden Spirit and set up a barrier. They chatted and drank tea.

Daoist Huang Long coughed and said, “Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian, don’t look at these. Follow me to the side and wait.”

Yang Jian lowered his head and agreed. Although he wanted to see how the big shots of the Dao Sect and the Heavenly Courts would interrogate the external demons, he could not refute Uncle-Master Huang Long’s good intentions.

As for Uncle-Master Huang Long, he could not bear to see such a ferocious scene...

That was a real joke. Uncle-Master Huang Long had survived from the ancient times. The famous attraction of Kunlun Mountain was not open to outsiders. How could an expert of Chan School who had walked out of the Three Pure Ones’ courtyard not be ferocious?

Quan Dong thought for a while. His identity was considered an undisclosed secret. He could not do such an interrogation. He obediently went to the side alone and hugged his arms to “watch the battle.”

The Golden Roc and the nineteen Demon Soldiers were scattered and on guard. The immortals from Jie School, who had come to join in the fun, went to Daoist Huang Long’s side.

The remaining few were the main force in the interrogation of the demons.

The ordinary minister of the Heavenly Courts, Lord Taibai Xing,

The second mount of the Heavenly Courts’ ordinary officials and Ren School, the ancient demon general Bai Ze.

Chan School was elegant, easy-going, and had Perfected Taiyi.

The Eldest Senior Brother of Jie School, Daoist Duobao, and the half-retired expert conman Zhao Gongming.

The six of them had strength, brains, and various methods. They were all big shots who commanded great authority.

Before putting away the Taiji Painting, Li Changshou walked forward worriedly and severely injured the eight demons. Then, Zhao Gongming activated the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl to suppress the universe. Daoist Duobao took out nine immortal ropes and trapped them.

He even symbolically tied up the Immortal-Slaying Flying Saber.

When Li Changshou retracted the power of the Taiji Painting, the eight demons immediately woke up.

They first glared at Li Changshou before recognizing the situation in front of them.

They had been captured.

Li Changshou asked, “Everyone, who wants to go first?”

Bai Ze smiled and said, “I know someone here. Why don’t you let me come first?”

The immortals praised him. Bai Ze slowly walked forward and stood in front of a black shadow. He flicked his finger and destroyed the illusions around him, revealing his human form.

He was an arrogant person. His eyes were filled with ferociousness. There were nine snakeheads in his long hair, and they were roaring.

Bai Ze cupped his hands and smiled. “We meet again, Marshal Jiu Ying.”

The ancient demon general only sneered and said calmly, “Since you have captured me alive, I don’t want to live. If you are still considered experts of the Primordial World, give me a quick death.”

Another black shadow beside him said, “You don’t have to think too much about what you will ask us. However, I can tell you directly that it was Kun Peng who invited us to gather here previously. He said that he was the one who attracted the attention of the Heavenly Dao. We entered the Primordial World to plunder some vitality to fill our deficiencies. Everything is the same. Do it. There’s no need to humiliate us. Based on the sins we committed in our early years, you will definitely not let us live.”

“Well...”

Bai Ze turned to look at Li Changshou and shook his head. “I’m really not good at interrogating.”

After saying that, he turned around and retreated. He shook his head and sighed.

Perfected Yu Ding said, “If you are not afraid of death, you should be fearless.”

Perfected Taiyi asked via voice transmission, “Can’t we give them some empty promises first and let them have some hope? Tell them everything that we can and cannot say before wiping them out?”

Li Changshou said seriously, “Although such actions can be considered flexible, there are still words and actions that are not worth it. Kill half of them first and interrogate half of them. Let’s see if they are really not afraid of death.”

Duobao asked, “What if important information is killed like that?”

Li Changshou pondered for a while and looked at Yun Xiao. A few thoughts surfaced in his mind, but he temporarily suppressed them.

He had already performed too much today. If he continued to make arrangements, Master Zhao and the others would have made a wasted trip.

He wanted them to work hard first...

The few of them communicated via voice transmission. The main force of the interrogation team was in a dilemma.

Li Changshou mainly wanted to ask about Kun Peng’s power, residence, and how he could find it in the Chaos Sea.

If he could conveniently understand how many demons there were in the Chaos Sea, it would naturally be best.

In the ancient times, ruthless people who had the courage to hide in the Chaos Sea were not simple people.

At that moment, they already knew that they were dead. Due to a subtle sense of loyalty to each other because they had a common enemy, they did not want to say anything related to others. This made them fall into a dilemma before the interrogation could begin.

Zhao Gongming said, “Why don’t I lie down and try?”

Li Changshou smiled helplessly. Master Zhao quickly changed the topic.

Soon, Duobao and the others decided to attack their hearts. They each chose a target and began to reason and talk about the past. They tried to obtain some useful information from these guys.

However, after working for half a day, they still did not obtain anything. Instead, they were mocked by the eight demons.

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

He sighed in his heart and secretly sent a voice transmission to Fairy Yun Xiao and the Goddess of Golden Spirit in the distance.

He went on to explain.

“What’s wrong?”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit frowned and asked in confusion.

Zhao Gongming sighed and said, “All of them are unwilling to speak and are not afraid of death. They have almost no gains.”

“Where’s the brutality you mentioned just now?”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit snorted and gestured behind her. Fairy Yun Xiao, the Goddess of Turtle Spirit, and the Goddess of Wudang flew over together.

Jin Ling asked, “Changgeng, if you can’t get anything out of these guys, will you kill them?”

“Yes.” Li Changshou nodded. “I’m afraid it will be difficult to obtain much today. However, eliminating these demons would mean that there are fewer hidden dangers.”

The Goddess of Turtle Spirit said, “Then let us try.”

“Oh?”

Li Changshou smiled and looked into Fairy Yun Xiao’s eyes. The latter’s eyes were as gentle as water and almost melted Li Changshou.

“So be it.”

Perfected Taiyi put his hands in his sleeves and chuckled. “Perhaps they will be convinced by the charms of the fairies and confess everything.”

Li Changshou gave Yun Xiao an encouraging look and calmly retreated a thousand feet.

Just like that, the interrogation team retreated to the second line and waited calmly for the performance of the four fairies of Jie School.

The four fairies of the Jie School first gathered together to discuss for a while. Then, they took action to expose the illusions of the eight demons and lingered in front of them for a long time.

Jin Ling said, “I’ll choose first. I want this, this, this. Can I?”

The other three fairies did not say anything and allowed the Goddess of Golden Spirit to bring the three demons to the side.

Fairy Yun Xiao made an inviting gesture and said gently, “I can interrogate three at will.”

The Goddess of Turtle Spirit and the Goddess of Wudang walked forward. They each chose a demon and brought it to the right.

The Goddess of Turtle Spirit sighed softly and looked at the demon in front of it.

“I have no feud with you. I’ll send you off this time. Do you like any music? I’m good at playing music, but I’m not good at interrogating.”

Goddess Wudang also said, “I’ll recite a few sutras for you. I can also purify the hatred in your heart.”

The male immortals behind immediately revealed gratified smiles.

It was rare for Perfected Taiyi to not be eccentric. He sighed and said, “The fairies of Jie School are really gentle.”

“Of course.” Daoist Duobao put his hands behind his back and carried the glory of his Eldest Senior Brother. “Junior Sisters, you are cultured and elegant. You are naturally very gentle.”

“Changgeng, what do you think?”

“Senior Brother Duobao is right.”

As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, a golden light flashed. The Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice appeared in Yun Xiao’s hand, and three purple-gold beams of light struck the three demons.

Her face was cold, and her figure was hidden in the fog. There were no fluctuations in her voice as she asked calmly, “Everyone, are you willing to speak?”

He only received three cold snorts and sneers.

Yun Xiao nodded slightly. The golden ball in her hand rotated, and a mysterious Dao rune circulated. The three demons that she was in charge of interrogating suddenly surged with pure spiritual energy.

As the three demons trembled, their Dao skills suddenly disappeared. A sense of weakness spread from the inside out.

Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice, back to the origin!

“You! What do you want?”

“Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice!”

“If you want to kill, just do it. Why destroy our Dao!?!”

“Are you willing to speak?” Yun Xiao remained silent.

The three demons trembled uncontrollably. Before they could respond, the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice turned again.

Several layers of their Dao Realms dissipated!

The three demons lay down weakly. Their Dao Realms dissipated step by step, and their Great Dao slowly collapsed. It was as if their bones were being extracted...

If that process happened in an instant, it would not be so uncomfortable. However, at that moment, Yun Xiao asked and tore their Dao Fruits apart like peeling onions...

They had never thought that there was such a method to make their Dao hearts collapse.

This was worse than killing them!

A sword light suddenly flashed on the other side, causing the immortals to subconsciously look over.

The Goddess of Golden Spirit held her sword in her hand, and the head of a demon beast was slowly thrown away. Beast blood floated in the void.

She raised her sword and approached the two remaining demons. A calm smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes were filled with anticipation. The sword in her hand was wrapped in a sanguine glow, and her golden dress was not stained with any dust.

“Are you really not afraid of death?”

The two demons sneered.

In the dark, a blue light quietly bloomed and enveloped the two demons. Li Changshou secretly aimed his right hand at Perfected Taiyi.

Balance: Fear of death!

Jin Ling said softly, “The one who speaks later will be killed first.”

Without a word, he slashed forward with the sword in his hand!

“I’ll tell you!”

“I...”

Two shouts and a head.

The Goddess of Golden Spirit’s long sword was pressed against a woman’s neck and cut into half an inch.

“Will you tell me everything?”

“I will tell you everything I know.”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit nodded slightly. She turned around and called out, “Old Zhao, come and ask. It’s really tiring for you to do something.”

At the same time, Fairy Yun Xiao turned around. The three Perfected Immortal demons behind her trembled and cried.

Yun Xiao asked gently, “What should we ask them? They agreed to tell us everything.”

Zhao Gongming was speechless.

Li Changshou smiled calmly in his heart and revealed the same expression as Master Zhao.

The void was silent. There was only the sound of the Goddess of Turtle Spirit’s flute and the advice of the Goddess of Mercy.

“The demon is the child of the demon’s mother. All living beings will die. It will be difficult for you to live past today even with your sins. Why don’t you think about how many living beings you have killed and how many sins you have committed...”

The male immortals present trembled. They seemed to have heard Perfected Taiyi’s sigh just now. Their thoughts were... complicated.

The fairies of Jie School are really gentle.
