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

Chapter 255 If you can't afford to offend them, you might as well avoid them?
Yu Ding knew that Bai Ze was not only one of the Ten Great Demon Saints of the Ancient Demon Court, but also the strategist and advisor of the Ancient Heavenly Court. He was resourceful and cunning, and had killed countless experts of the Witch Clan.

He's definitely a cunning old fox, yet he's saying he's not one... Yu Ding smiled meaningfully and said, "Haha, fellow Daoist, you are of noble character and upright conduct. Who in the world doesn't know you?"

"By the way, fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. I didn't mean to do anything wrong; it's just that I've been overdoing it with my cultivation lately. My sword energy is too bloated and difficult to control. I need to release some sword energy from time to time to feel better."

Do you think you're just bored? Your sword energy is a little bloated, can't you come up with a more convincing reason...? Bai Ze's eyelids trembled, and he smiled nonchalantly, "It's nothing, I understand!"

To be honest, he was quite wary of the jade cauldron.

Last time, Longji wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Court, severely injuring the veteran Grand Luo Golden Immortal Fu Yuan with a single sword strike, making him famous throughout the prehistoric world.

However, anyone with a modicum of common sense knows that a mere Golden Immortal is no match for a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

At that time, Yu Ding was also in the Heavenly Court, so it was obvious without much thought that Yu Ding Zhenren was behind Long Ji's severe injury to Fu Yuan Xianweng.

To be honest, once you're in the realm of the Great Luo, the battles between you involve not only the laws but also the clash of the Dao.

Determining a winner between the two is both easy and difficult.

However, it is by no means easy to decide the outcome of a battle with a single, decisive sword strike, just like Longji did.

But... as Bai Ze gazed at the jade cauldron, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes as if he had suddenly remembered something.

He remembered that it was a bright and sunny day when he first met Yu Ding on the East China Sea.

At that time, for some unknown reason, Yu Ding's cultivation level plummeted, even falling below the level of an immortal. Come to think of it, he had been focusing on Yu Ding's disciples all these years, but now he suddenly noticed Yu Ding... who seemed to have already reached the Heavenly Immortal realm.

Of course, that's not the point. The point is... how could Yu Ding, with such a low level of cultivation, unleash such terrifying sword energy?

Bai Ze habitually fell into deep thought. From the sword energy revealed by Yu Ding's fingertips just now, he was absolutely certain that Long Ji's victory over Fu Yuan Xianweng was due to Yu Ding's skill.

But now the question is, how could Yu Ding, who is only at the Celestial Immortal level, unleash such terrifying sword energy?

Did Yu Ding abandon his cultivation to cultivate this sword path, or... was this sword energy passed down by a master?
Bai Ze was very uncertain because he had never personally experienced Yu Ding's sword energy, so he couldn't tell the difference; otherwise, the answer would have been obvious.

But it was absolutely impossible for him to personally experience the sword intent.

"Master, the cracks in the earth have been repaired."

At this moment, Chi Yang finished repairing the ground and came to the jade cauldron to report back. At the same time, he glanced at the man in white with some surprise.

He was rather curious about the kind of people who associated with this Master Taixu.

"Well done, keep up the good work!"

Yu Ding looked at Bai Ze and casually praised him, saying, "So, fellow Daoist, is your visit here truly only to congratulate my disciple on completing his apprenticeship?"

At this moment, he was even more curious about Bai Ze's intention in taking the initiative to find him.

He also discovered that after the remnants of the Demon Court retreated to the Northern Continent, Bai Ze, the Demon Saint, broke with the remnants of the Demon Court for some unknown reason, and they went their separate ways.

Today I took the initiative to meet with him. Whether he is an enemy or a friend, good or evil, remains to be seen.

After all, the Chan Sect had little to no contact with the demon race before.

Bai Ze looked up and smiled, "If I said it was... would you believe me, fellow Daoist?"

"why?"

Yu Ding stared at Bai Ze and smiled, "What is it about my little disciple that makes you... so concerned?"

You… Bai Ze keenly noticed the change in Yu Ding’s address and quickly smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I am not your enemy, and I have no ill intentions towards your disciple.”

"That depends on your answer," Yu Ding said, his smile undiminished. "Whether you are friend or foe, this humble Taoist... will decide for himself!"

He can allow his apprentices to be beaten, make mistakes, and cause trouble, as long as they bear the consequences in the end. However, he cannot tolerate his apprentices being plotted against or schemed against.

"This..." Bai Ze's lips twitched slightly. Even though he was eloquent, he was still a little flustered under Yu Ding's gaze.

He can't exactly say, "I pay attention to your apprentices because I'm hoping they'll cause trouble and bring me amusement; I'm just enjoying the drama, right?"
"Fellow Daoist... I reiterate, I truly have absolutely no ill intentions towards you or your disciples..." Bai Ze said with a dry laugh.

"We?"

Yu Ding raised an eyebrow, noticing the key words. So this guy was following more than one of his disciples?
"I... take my leave!" Bai Ze's lips twitched as he vanished into the world, but his voice still lingered: "But I swear on my integrity that not a single word I said was a lie..."

You, a demon, are telling me to guarantee it with your personal integrity… Yu Ding’s gaze suddenly sharpened, his words clearly lacking any sincerity!

The mountain breeze from all around dispersed the echoing sounds, and also made Yu Ding's expression slightly somber.

It seems we'll have to form another team next time and invite this demon saint to have a chat.

To be honest, if Bai Ze were to fight him, he wouldn't be afraid of anything. However, if the other party wanted to leave, he lacked a powerful magic weapon to keep them there.

At this moment, Yu Ding stood up. Chi Yang cautiously probed, "Master, that person just now..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Ding slammed down another punch, coldly snorting, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

Even with his formidable physical body, Chi Yang was still reeling from the impact, feeling as if he'd been smashed by a mountain. He could only obediently reply, "Yes, yes, yes..."

At that moment, he suddenly felt a little envious of that fool, Fire Crow.

At this moment, Yu Ding calmly stepped forward.

Chi Yang asked in surprise, "Where is Master going?"

Yu Ding turned around and smiled meaningfully: "Let me inspect your repair work. If there are any mistakes... you know what I mean!"

What? You think I know everything? You didn't mention any inspection before... Chi Yang suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. The next moment, he transformed into a gust of wind and swept past the jade cauldron to check it himself.

"Ah……"

Yu Ding smiled sinisterly. Taming a mount still requires some effort.

also……

Yu Ding's eyes flashed. Now that Li Jing had completed his apprenticeship, he could once again use Yu Ding's special account.

With the Investiture of the Gods imminent, which of these disciples—Yuan Hong, Yang Jian, Long Ji, Li Jing—wasn't an important figure?
The East cultivates the Dao body, the West cultivates the golden body. He needs to repair his profound skills and advance to the next level. Staying on Jade Spring Mountain will not lead to anything; he must go to the mortal world to try his luck.

But isn't it a bit of a waste to lose the identity of Master Taixu?

"If only I could learn the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones technique from my master..." Yu Ding sighed. The next moment, a ray of spiritual light flew out from the top of his head and landed, transforming into the Taixu Daoist.

He then returned to his original form, marking the return of Master Yu Ding.

"If you encounter a spiritual being in the future, you can cultivate the Taoist Taixu into another incarnation!"

Yu Ding thought to himself, "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" can transform into three Dao bodies of the same level within a certain period of time, allowing for a four-on-one fight anytime, anywhere.

During the Investiture of the Gods, his senior uncle, Daode, used this supernatural power to enter the Zhuxian Sword Formation, thus gaining fame. Yu Ding even speculated that if the duration had been longer, it might have been possible for his senior uncle, Daode, to single-handedly defeat the Zhuxian Sword Formation!
Rumble…

Before long, a huge shadow covered the sky and the sun. Yu Ding used his supernatural power to move mountains and fill seas, moving a large mountain to fill the original site of Flying Fish Mountain.

He erected a monument and renamed the mountain Feiyu Mountain, leaving a avatar of Taixu to guard it!

Soon after, Yu Ding went to meet with Long Ji, wanting to see how Long Ji's treasure hunting was progressing.

"Ah..."

Just then, outside a mountain stronghold, a boy who was sleeping in a tree suddenly sneezed and rubbed his nose, asking, "What's going on?"

Suddenly, a boy in another tree exclaimed in alarm, "Bai Ren, something terrible has happened! Your wife is here!"

The third person exclaimed in surprise, "How did she find our place? Was it the one you told me, Bai Ren?"

"Bullshit, this is my sacred ground, would I be crazy to tell her that?"

The boy named Bai Ren snorted unhappily, "Also, what 'wife'? As long as we're not married, you can't call me that, understand?"

As she spoke, she stood up and saw a girl with a fierce expression pinching the ear of another boy with a snotty nose, walking over angrily and shouting, "Zhang Bairen, you get out here!"

With a roar, all around fell silent. The surrounding boys stared at each other, terrified.

Where is Zhang Bairen?

The girl scanned the group of boys one by one.

"That!"

Before Zhang Bairen could say anything, all the teenagers pointed at him.

"These disloyal bastards!"

Zhang Bairen sighed and stood up awkwardly.

The last sacred site is gone; we can't stay here any longer...

If you can't afford to mess with them, you might as well avoid them, right?

Looks like I'll have to move up my plans to run away from home!

P.S.: Ugh, I didn't complete the goal, I'll post it tomorrow at noon, damn it!
