Honghuang: I am Kuiniu, and I instructed Nuwa to create humans at the beginning.

"It seems that the ninth rank is their limit now. After all, the acquired nature is still the acquired nature. Even if they have the Three Lights Divine Water and the Nine Heavens Xirang, it is useless..."

"Since you are back, bring a Pure World White Lotus with you. After all, this Pure World White Lotus is more suitable for you than the other lotus platforms."

After finishing speaking, Niu Kui waved his hand towards the Three Lights Divine Pond and collected all the nine-grade lotus platforms.

Chang'e naturally didn't hesitate to take the Ninth-Rank Pure World White Lotus. At the same time, she didn't forget to thank Niu Kui.

"By the way, don't you want Jade Rabbit to regain some memories of her past life? Then take her with me to Sanshan Pass to meet the Ten Golden Crows."

Chang'e naturally would not refuse this, and nodded to Niu Kui obediently. Then she left Penglai Island with Niu Kui and headed towards Sanshan Pass.

At this time in Sanshan Pass, Zhao Gongming had a gloomy face and threw the battle report in his hand heavily to the ground.

"How did Zhang Guifang manage his men? He clearly told him not to go into battle lightly. Why didn't the deputy general Feng Lin listen?"

"Not only has he been included in the Conferred God List, but he has also caused Zhang Guifang's army to suffer a crushing defeat and retreat a full hundred miles."

"Senior Sister Jin Ling has been reporting victory after victory. But we have been killed tens of thousands of people in the first battle."

It was no wonder that Zhao Gongming was so angry, as he knew very well that the disciples of the Western Sect were treacherous, so he told Zhang Guifang to set up camp outside the city of Nandu first.

When they have finished their work, they will go to the main camp to join them. It will not be too late to fight against the Western religion then.

At the beginning, Zhang Guifang was very obedient and merely confronted Nandu, and no real fighting took place.

Moreover, Nandu was very quiet and did not send anyone to fight the enemy. It was as if Zhang Guifang and the others did not exist.

This also made Zhang Guifang's general Feng Lin very dissatisfied. After all, only by killing enemies on the battlefield can he achieve success.

So he repeatedly encouraged Zhang Guifang, saying that both of them were people with Taoist skills and that the small Nandu was not worth mentioning.

As long as he was allowed to fight, he would surely capture the southern capital in one fell swoop. He even threatened that he could capture Bo Yikao and Shen Gongbao alive.

Although Zhang Guifang also underestimated the enemy, she did not agree with Feng Lin's opinion. She said that she would wait for Zhao Gongming and others to arrive before starting the battle.

But Feng Lin said that when Zhao Gongming and his men arrived, all the credit would be taken away. Even if Nandu was destroyed, it would have nothing to do with them.

Finally, seeing that it was useless to persuade Zhang Guifang, Feng Lin actually brought his troops directly to the city of Nando to fight the enemy.

The first warrior to go into battle was a general from Nandu, who was killed by the red bead from Feng Lin's mouth. This made Feng Lin even more arrogant, and he thought he had become a god of war.

But before he could be arrogant for long, Bai Tianhao, a disciple of the Western Sect, broke his red bead with a golden needle and eventually sent Feng Lin to the List of Gods.

In the end, Bai Tianhao directly led the army to attack Zhang Guifang's camp.

With his golden needles, he opened the way for the Shang army, and in a short time, the Shang army was defeated and had to retreat a hundred miles.

Even so, the enemy lost tens of thousands of troops, and even Zhang Guifang was seriously injured.

So when the battle report was delivered to Sanshan Pass, Zhao Gongming instantly flew into a rage and almost beheaded the person who delivered the battle report.

When Zhao Gongming was extremely angry, Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao said, "Big Brother, why are you so angry?" "In the next two days, Senior Sister Sanxiao and the others will be able to complete the practice of the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation. Then even if the Western Sect disciples come with us, we won't have anything to worry about."

Upon hearing that his three sisters were about to complete the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, Zhao Gongming's anger subsided a little.

He then said helplessly, "The original Nine Bends Yellow River Formation was already powerful enough. Even a Quasi-Saint would die if he entered the formation, so why bother practicing it again?"

In fact, Zhao Gongming was more anxious than anyone else. If Fairy Yunxiao hadn't stopped him, he would have gone to Nandu City long ago.

So at this time, Zhao Gongming could not help but blame his three sisters for being too cautious. There was no need to improve the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation to deal with the Western Sect disciples.

At the same time when Zhao Gongming was complaining, Niu Kui's voice also rang out, "A dignified middle-stage Hunyuan Golden Immortal was actually plotted against by the Western Cult."

"If the master doesn't come, I'm afraid you, Zhao Gongming, will become a famous person on the List of Gods."

As he was speaking, Niu Kui had already brought Chang'e to the main hall of the Sanshan Pass General's Mansion.

Hearing the voice of his master, Zhao Gongming hurried out to greet him in person, and first performed the master-disciple ceremony to Niu Kui.

Then he asked Niu Kui, "Master, why did you say that to me just now? I think I didn't do anything wrong."

Niu Kui glared at Zhao Gongming fiercely, and then asked Xiao Sheng to call Sanxiao and all the other Penglai disciples to the main hall of the general's mansion.

After sending Xiao Sheng away, Niu Kui waved his hand towards Zhao Gongming, and a ninth-grade Pure World White Lotus flew out.

And let Zhao Gongming step on the ninth-grade pure world white lotus and start to practice the Shangqing Immortal Technique. He could not stop until Niu Kui told him to stop.

Finally, even the Three Sky Fairies and their companions came, but Zhao Gongming was still sitting on the Ninth-Rank Pure World White Lotus, practicing the Shangqing Immortal Technique non-stop.

After everyone paid their respects to Niu Kui, Fairy Yunxiao finally spoke to Niu Kui, "Master, what happened to Big Brother?"

Niu Kui sighed and said, "He was plotted against by the Western Sect disciples, but he was totally unaware of it. It really makes me, the Master, feel ashamed for him."

Hearing Niu Kui's words, everyone present was shocked. After all, Zhao Gongming had been in Sanshan Pass all along, so when had he been plotted against by the Western Sect?

Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Niu Kui said, "Now that the Conferred God Tribulation has begun, the tribulation energy will subtly affect the minds of the cultivators."

"It makes the cultivators develop an unwarranted fire and willingly participate in the Conferred God Tribulation. Until they eventually become famous people on the Conferred God List."

"And once the calamity energy enters the body, both the thinking and the temper will be affected. The most obvious manifestation is that one becomes more arrogant."

Hearing Niu Kui's words, Fairy Yunxiao couldn't help but nodded, "Master, what you said is very consistent with my brother's behavior during this period."

"Because during this period, my eldest brother has been urging me to go to Nandu as soon as possible. He said that the disciples of the Western Sect are not a concern."

"Originally, I thought that Big Brother was worried that our Qinglian lineage would be overshadowed by Senior Sister Jin Ling and the others. I didn't expect that he was actually being invaded by the calamity energy."

"But this can only mean that Big Brother was affected by the Conferred God Tribulation. It seems that it still has nothing to do with the Western religion."

Niu Kui was very satisfied with Fairy Yunxiao's analysis. After all, it was normal for Fairy Yunxiao to not be able to see through some things. (End of this chapter)
