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

Chapter 228 You Must Become the Pillar of My Jade Spring Lineage
Just as the story of Longji's great defeat of the Heavenly Court was spreading like wildfire throughout the prehistoric world.

Beiju Luzhou, Didu Mountain!

A streak of azure light, swift as a shooting star, swept down from the sky toward the Imperial Capital Mountain, finally landing at the Sun Temple atop the mountain, where it transformed into a figure in azure robes.

Inside the main hall, besides the sixth prince at the top, there were several other powerful figures sitting cross-legged in the air, radiating light like the sun.

"Greetings, my lord! Greetings to all the great demon gods!" The man in green clasped his hands in greeting.

Before the ceremony was even over, a figure urgently asked, "Qingyuzi, have you found out any news? Is now the time to fight back to the Heavenly Court?"

When the Golden Mother was in seclusion during Haotian's tribulation, the Heavenly Court was at its weakest after losing those two quasi-saint level experts.

Furthermore, after being ravaged two or three times before, the Heavenly Court's prestige in the prehistoric world plummeted to its lowest point.

Apart from a few exceptional experts who deserve our attention, attacking the Heavenly Court nowadays would be an incredibly easy task.

Qing Yuzi said cautiously, "I was just about to report to Your Highness and all the other officials that, based on the results of my investigation, now is indeed not the time to invade the Heavenly Court."

"This time, another major incident has occurred in the Heavenly Court. Someone broke in and wreaked havoc, even Immortal Fu Yuan was severely injured..."

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, even those terrifying figures couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Fu Yuan is one of the few top-tier Grand Luo warriors in the Heavenly Court today. They are paying special attention to Fu Yuan when they want to enter the Heavenly Realm.

Hearing that a Great Luo Golden Immortal had been severely injured, they could not help but be surprised, for there must have been a major change in the matter.

"Oh, who did it?" the Sixth Prince asked, his eyes gleaming.

Qing Yuzi hesitated for a moment and then smiled wryly, "The Heavenly Emperor's daughter... Long Ji!"

"What, Longji?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"I've always heard that Haotian's daughter is a useless piece of trash. She can defeat Fu Yuan? Are you kidding me?"

Upon hearing this, the group of demon gods immediately erupted in chaos.

Firstly, the news was indeed explosive, and secondly, their cultivation level was only about the same as Fu Yuan's.

If Longji loses to Fu Yuan, wouldn't that mean that the fate of these seniors when facing that little girl won't be much better?
If this is true, where will those old guys put their face?

"It's true, my lords. You may not know this, but Longji has actually become a disciple of the Jade Cauldron Immortal of the Chan Sect..." Qingyuzi recounted the whole story.

"Hiss, he advanced from True Immortal to Golden Immortal in just half a day?"

"Was the sword that defeated Fu Yuan passed down by Yu Ding?"

After hearing this, the entire Sun Palace fell silent, and the demon gods also used silence to hide their shock.

From True Immortal to Golden Immortal, a Golden Immortal can defeat a Grand Luo Golden Immortal...

They wouldn't have believed either of these two pieces of news before, because they sounded more and more outrageous than the last, and simply impossible.

Leaving aside the several demon gods who were causing a stir, the Golden Crow Prince, sitting in the center, grew increasingly gloomy, his body trembling slightly as he looked down at his wrist.

My arm has regenerated, but just hearing the name "Yu Ding" makes it seem to ache again...

"Jade Cauldron!" The Golden Crow Prince gritted his teeth, a deep sense of dread appearing in the depths of his golden pupils.

An unpleasant memory resurfaced...

After learning that the Heavenly Emperor's daughter was being punished in the mortal realm, he sent Bifang to kidnap Longji, the daughter of Haotian, as a backup plan for attacking the Heavenly Court.

Unexpectedly, the operation went awry. Yu Ding suddenly appeared and not only defeated Bi Fang, but also had his hand cut off by Yu Ding with a shocking sword aura during the rescue.

He lost both hands that time.

One was cut off, and the other was his capable assistant, Bifang.

Judging from the sword energy that Yu Ding unleashed, it was not surprising that Immortal Fu Yuan was defeated.

At this moment, a demon god stared at Qing Yuzi and slowly said, "Is this news... guaranteed to be true?"

Qing Yuzi's expression hardened, and she felt a chill run down her spine. She could only brace herself and say, "That's what people outside are saying."

"But isn't everything over now?"

Another demon god suddenly said, "The Heavenly Court is currently undergoing a great battle, and the Heavenly Soldiers' morale is waning, while our morale is at its peak. If we attack the Heavenly Court now, how can we not conquer it?"

Qing Yuzi said cautiously, "I heard that afterwards, in order to give the Heavenly Court an explanation, True Man Yu Ding is still repairing the destroyed Heavenly Court."

"Master Yu Ding..."

When the topic turned to Yu Ding again, the demon gods fell silent once more.

"No, I don't understand. Aren't there rumors that the Twelve Golden Immortals haven't severed their three corpses and are about to face a calamity?"

A demon god said, "But Yu Ding has taught such a powerful disciple and passed on such a powerful sword technique. Just how strong is this guy?"
Could it be that he, the Taoist priest, has already secretly broken through and achieved the status of a Great Luo?

"The last time, Bifang was defeated by him..."

At this moment, the Golden Crow Prince looked grim, and the words of Bifang shouting "Quasi-Saint" still echoed in his ears.

"Then... will the Heavenly Court still fight?" Several demon gods exchanged glances, and it seemed that they could all see the hesitation in each other's eyes.

"hold on!"

"How long?"

"We'll wait until Yu Ding and the others leave the Heavenly Court."

The Golden Crow Prince's eyes flashed, and he made a decision: "With the Heavenly Court's current strength, it might not even take an hour to take it down."

"We'll act swiftly and decisively, before anyone can react, and complete the change of dynasty in Heaven..."

……

The news of the Heavenly Court caused a huge sensation in the prehistoric world.

At this time, after three days, Yu Ding's team for repairing the Heavenly Court had finally restored the damaged Heavenly Court to about 70-80% capacity.

Among them, the Old Man of the South Pole contributed the most, undertaking more than half of the work. "Alright, there's not much left, so leave it to me. You can all go back now!"

The Antarctic Immortal said, "The great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods is imminent. The other junior brothers have all sought disciples to teach in order to prepare for this calamity. Yu... you can forget about it. Taiyi, have you taken care of your disciple?"

When the topic of the Jade Cauldron came up, Antarctica skipped over it and looked at Taiyi.

What do you mean I can just let it go...? Yu Ding's face darkened, indicating that he was offended.

Taiyi suppressed a laugh and said, "Keep it safe!"

"Yes, you must teach him to be well-behaved and obedient..." the Antarctic Immortal instructed.

Yang Jian, standing nearby, lowered his head in shame.

"Ahem, senior brother, I can tolerate whatever you say about me, but if you talk about my disciple... I'll have to say something in response."

Yu Ding retorted indignantly, "All the disciples I've taken in are obedient, filial, and sensible. Nobody wanted this to happen..."

Antarctica glanced at him: "Why don't you fix it yourself?"

Yu Ding remained expressionless and said, "Ahem, Junior Brother will definitely pay more attention to strengthening the moral education of our disciples in the future..."

Nanji nodded slightly and looked at Taiyi, saying, "If Junior Brother feels that one disciple is too few, then you may choose other talented young men to join your sect..."

Yu Ding raised an eyebrow: "Senior brother, do you need me...?"

“You don’t need it!” the Antarctic Immortal interrupted impatiently.

He usually has a very good temper, but as the Heavenly Court is being repaired... why is he getting so angry!

A short while later, Yu Ding and his disciples, along with Tai Yi, arrived outside the Heavenly Court.

"Yang Jian, you've worked hard these past few days too."

As they parted, Yu Ding said solemnly, "Remember what I told you: you must become a pillar of my Yuquan lineage, understand?"

Yang Jian's expression turned solemn: "Disciple understands!"

The pillar of Jade Spring Mountain... After seeing Yang Jian's reaction, Taiyi secretly remembered these words, intending to tell Lingzhuzi about them later.

The Jade Cauldron Cult has its good and bad aspects, but he can take the essence and discard the dross...

"Alright, you can come to Yuquan Mountain to find your master if you need anything in the future."

After giving his instructions, Yu Ding and Tai Yi rode on a cloud and headed straight for the Eastern Continent Dojo.

……

At this time, in the Kunlun Mountains.

On the long ancient road, a staggering figure was climbing uphill, already panting heavily from exhaustion.

High above, Shen Gongbao stood quietly, gazing at the figure. A gentle breeze blew through his clothes, making him appear ethereal and otherworldly.

This ancient road is also a test for those who wish to join the Chan Sect...

The most amazing thing is that the difficulty of the test will change depending on the cultivation level of the person seeking to become a disciple.

"Senior brother, now your junior brother is going to be a senior brother!"

Shen Gongbao gazed at the mountain and thought happily... "My junior brother will surely learn from his senior brother, showing more care for the disciples of our sect and fulfilling his responsibilities as a senior brother."

Thinking of this, Shen Gongbao turned his body slightly to the side, so that when the wind blew his hair and robes, he would resemble his senior brother even more.

……

Yu Ding and Tai Yi rode the escape light and in the blink of an eye, they crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to reach the Eastern Continent.

"How about it, junior brother, how about coming to visit my Qianyuan Mountain?"

Qianyuan Mountain is located in the southwest of Dongzhou, at the border with Nanzhou, so it was the first place we arrived at.

"I've been away for too long this time, I don't know if anything happened, maybe next time, next time!"

Taiyi had made many trips to his Jade Spring Mountain, and Yuding still wanted to go and see it, but unfortunately, he had been away from the Daoist temple for quite some time this time.

Let's hope nothing else goes wrong...

……

Yuquan Mountain, halfway up the mountain.

"Lingzhuzi, come out here, you son of a bitch, come out now..."

Kneeling before the mountain gate, Li Jing greeted Ling Zhuzi with a clear and earnest voice: "I'm going to kill you. Where is your martial uncle?"

"What are you yelling about! I'm right here with you."

Lingzhuzi, who had transformed into a squirrel and was sleeping on the mountain gate, climbed down and complained, then muttered guiltily, "Yeah, where did my uncle go? He hasn't come back for so long."

"Three years, another three years, plus the previous two years... it's been five years!"

Li Jing looked up, tears welling in his eyes: "Do you know what I've been through these past five years..."

"Wait, Qingyun is here!" Lingzhuzi scurried up the mountain gate.

Qingyun, carrying a bowl of water, slowly approached and looked at Li Jing kneeling on the ground, saying with admiration, "You really have perseverance, lad. Five years have passed, and you haven't left..."

Actually, it wasn't all about perseverance... Li Jing coughed and said, "You flatter me, Immortal Master. As the saying goes, 'Where there's a will, there's a way!'"

As he spoke, he looked down at his kneeling legs.

The main problem is that he's been kneeling for so long that he can't stand up anymore.

If he could stand up, he wouldn't be here; he would have run away long ago...

"Hmm, Master is back?"

Suddenly, Qingyun seemed to sense something and looked up in surprise.
