Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 183 The Great Change Begins
"A draw?!"

Hearing this, Huang Long felt a pang of heartache.

Seeing that Yu Ding had brought the situation outside under control, Yun Zhongzi nodded slightly in relief, but also felt somewhat helpless.

Senior Brother Yu Ding also said that his two disciples know how to control their actions. Is that what you call knowing how to control one's actions?

If they had actually clashed, the outcome would most likely have been a lose-lose situation.

Of course, Longji was urging the Four Seas Bottle to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and in the end she would definitely suffer a great loss. But if the prince were to be injured, how could she explain it to the Heavenly Court?
"This...this is the strength of these two juniors?"

Shen Gongbao looked up at the sky, his eyes twitching. Even though he had mentally prepared himself, his heart was still churning with turmoil.

Is it really that strong? How can it be so strong?

The disciples taught by Senior Brother Yu Ding are all so ridiculously strong, which makes it really difficult for him, a senior uncle in the True Immortal Realm, to save face!

Shen Gongbao sighed inwardly, but then he remembered that their master was Senior Brother Yu Ding…

"So strong... it's not unacceptable," Shen Gongbao thought, feeling much more at ease.

If it were a disciple of Manjushri Bodhisattva who surpassed him...

He might as well find a block of tofu and smash his head against it; not to mention whether others would laugh at him, he himself would lose face.

Of course, he also understood that the path to immortality is like climbing a mountain; the further you go, the more difficult the path becomes, and the harder it is to climb. This is something no one can defy.

Throughout the long course of time, the world has never lacked extraordinary talents favored by heaven and earth, whose cultivation progresses with unstoppable momentum, catching up with and even surpassing these senior figures...

"Master, are you... alright?"

After Yang Jian and Long Ji poured their power into Yu Ding, Yu Ding directly sent them flying to avoid injuring them.

Upon seeing the jade cauldron reappear, the two disciples cautiously inquired.

Actually... they weren't too worried about Yu Ding. With their master's cultivation level, they should worry about themselves rather than their master!

"You two have gone too far this time!"

Yu Ding remained silent, but Taiyi was the first to lose his temper. With a cold face, he sternly rebuked, "Putting everything else aside, you are at least fellow disciples, having studied under the same master. How could you be so reckless this time?"

If the other party is really hurt, who should your master care about, and who should he punish?

Yang Jian and Long Ji looked at each other in bewilderment after being scolded. This was the first time they had ever seen their Uncle Taiyi so angry.

The key is that they can tell the difference; this time, Uncle Taiyi is genuinely angry.

"Look at you two, you're not young anymore. If you were ordinary people, your lives would have ended long ago. Yet you're still so impulsive. What kind of behavior is this?" Taiyi continued to scold, still not satisfied.

"Senior brother, it's alright, it's nothing!"

As Yu Ding harmonized the two forces, he turned his head and smiled.

Yang Jian and Long Ji looked up.

"You two go and copy the rules of my Jade Spring Mountain one hundred times each. You are not allowed to leave the mountain until you have finished copying them," Yu Ding said with a sneer.

"Yuquan Mountain Rules?"

The two were taken aback: "Master, how come we've never heard of this before?"

"The library, second row, volume eight, go see for yourself."

Yu Ding snorted and gave the two men a look. The two men immediately understood and quickly clasped their hands and said, "Then Master, fellow disciples, we will take our leave now."

"Junior brother, are you just going to spoil them like this?"

Taiyi said irritably, "Sooner or later they'll cause you a big disaster, and then we'll see how you clean it up."

"It's not like you're averse to your disciple..." Yu Ding rolled his eyes. "I'm happy to!"
Taiyi probably spoils his disciples rotten. Among the Twelve Golden Immortals, when it comes to protecting their own, Taiyi is second to none.

"What kind of look is that? You don't want to hear it, do you?"

Taiyi's expression shifted slightly as he spoke, and he said leisurely, "Oh, by the way, Yang Jian has already caused trouble."

Yu Ding said proudly, "My disciple's attack on the heavens was for a reason and there were extenuating circumstances."

"This power..."

Taiyi looked at the sun-like energy sphere, now compressed by the jade cauldron and radiating astonishing light and heat: "What do you plan to do with it?"

This fireball is truly like a miniature sun, containing astonishing power; once unleashed, its destructive force would be absolutely terrifying.

"What should we do with it? Of course, we should keep it; after all, it's such a valuable item."

Yu Ding gazed at the fireball in his hand; the power contained within it was terrifying.

At this moment, this thing is like a real sun. Its originally violent power has been calmed down and is now peacefully releasing light and heat, only on a much smaller scale.

Unlike the great sun that the Golden Crow clan transformed into, this sun was created by him using his power...

"Keep it?" Taiyi was taken aback.

Then, he saw the Mountain and River Map be unleashed, sealing the fireball inside.

"It's not a jade cauldron. Are you really planning to keep this thing?" Taiyi frowned and said, "I understand what you mean, but this thing is quite dangerous. If you want to keep it... I advise you to reconsider."

The old guys were so shocked by the fight between those two juniors that even their expressions changed, which showed just how terrifying the power of their attack was.

That would mean it was the Jade Cauldron; otherwise, if any other celestial being had intervened in the conflict...

At this moment, it's questionable whether we can even stand here intact.

It must be admitted that Yu Ding's method of transforming those two originally violent forces into this thing is quite ingenious.

The best option would then be to distribute these powers throughout the world.

But if I keep this thing with me, what if it explodes one day...?

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, there's nothing valuable in the Mountain and River Map, so even if it explodes, it won't be a big problem," Yu Ding said with a smile.

He understood Taiyi's concerns; this thing was essentially a bomb...

Well, actually calling it a bomb isn't quite accurate, because this thing is like the core of the sun, containing power no less than that of the core of a star.

This is only in the primordial world. If it were in the infinite starry river outside the primordial world, the destructive power of a celestial being would be at the level of annihilation.

Once this 'little sun' erupts, its destructive power will be absolutely terrifying. Putting aside everything else, the world within the Mountain and River Map will likely face destruction and rebirth.

But if he stayed behind, he would simply be thrown out if he encountered the enemy...

Thinking of this, Yu Ding raised an eyebrow, and a great sun slowly rose into the sky within the landscape painting.

After a long time, inside Jinxia Cave.

Yu Ding, Yun Zhongzi, Taiyi, Huanglong, and Shen Gongbao sat down.

"Let's make this clear first: you interfered in your apprentices' fight earlier, so that doesn't count!"

Huang Long quickly waved his hand and looked at Taiyi, "Taiyi, aren't you right?"

Taiyi glanced at him without saying a word, but simply used the handle of his whisk to push the gold brick toward the jade cauldron, and then looked at Huanglong.

Yu Ding, Yun Zhongzi, and Shen Gongbao all turned their six eyes toward Huang Long.

Huang Long's smile froze, and his old face flushed red...

You bastard Taiyi, I knew you and Yuding were in cahoots.

"Senior Brother Huanglong, would you like some face?" Taiyi raised an eyebrow.

Noodles? What good are they? Can they be used as magic weapons in battle? Huang Long looked like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.

"Alright, alright, it was just for fun. Senior Brother Taiyi, please take back your magic weapon."

Yu Ding said with righteous indignation, "If I were to use my disciples as a scapegoat, what kind of person would I be?"

Although Huanglong is a powerful expert, he is pure-hearted, straightforward, and loyal. He is the kind of person who would dare to follow along when Yu Ding attacked the Heavenly Court.

We can just tease him casually. We're all so familiar with each other, how could he not know that the treasure is Huanglong's lifeline?
To put it simply, for the sake of a magical treasure, he would rather transform into his true form and let someone pluck a few dragon scales than give away his precious artifact.

It seems that it was Senior Brother who suggested adding a prize just now... Looking at the righteous and awe-inspiring Jade Cauldron, Yun Zhongzi remained silent.

"Come, Longji, Yang Jian, let me introduce you."

Yu Ding beckoned to his disciples: "This is my junior brother, your uncle-master, Shen Gongbao, who is also my good brother. You must not neglect him in the future."

"I've met Uncle Master!"

Yang Jian clasped his hands in a very formal gesture.

"No need for formalities, no need for formalities." Shen Gongbao quickly nodded.

"Greetings, Uncle Shen!"

Longji smiled and took out a crimson-gold metal token engraved with talismans from his treasure bag: "This is the Five Thunder Divine Fire Token. It's a small token of my respect since we've just met. Please accept it, Uncle!"

"Okay, okay... um?"

Shen Gongbao was suddenly stunned, looking at the smiling girl with a somewhat... bewildered expression!
Finally, he looked at the jade cauldron for help, as if something... wasn't right!
This brat really knows how to use her money everywhere she goes... Yu Ding sighed inwardly, and smiled at Shen Gongbao, "As the saying goes... well, it is said: This is a gift from a junior, and it is not easy to refuse. Junior brother, please accept it!"

Next, Yu Ding first sent a clone back to Heaven to oversee the situation.

His true form lay on the ground, displaying fine wines, immortal peaches, and spiritual fruits, thus strengthening his bond with his fellow disciples.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

That night, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and everyone drank and enjoyed themselves under the moon.

"The celestial signs tonight are unusual!"

Yun Zhongzi suddenly looked up at the sky and said.

The others looked up, their expressions changing slightly.
The moon is bright, and the stars should be few, but countless stars twinkle in the sky, as if vying with the moon for brilliance.

That night, a meteor shower fell upon Jambudvipa (the southern continent)...
