Mixed in the heavens, merits and virtues become immortals

Chapter 391 Seventy-two Changes
Qianyuan Mountain, Jinguan Cave.

Taiyi Zhenren was reciting scriptures in a seemingly serious manner, but in reality he was watching Gu Qing and Nezha fight. He saw that the two did not use their true energy, but only their fists, feet and weapons clashed. His disciple Nezha tried all kinds of methods, but in front of Gu Qing, there was only one way to lose.

Whether it's the Universe Ring, the Yin-Yang Twin Swords, the Hun Tian Ling, the Fire-Tipped Spear, or even the Wind-Fire Wheels, Gu Qing has a great deal of experience in wielding them. When Nezha fought with Gu Qing, he even had the thought that "it can be used like this." However, seeing his own weapon being used in so many different ways by Gu Qing made Nezha feel uncomfortable.

"do not fight."

Nezha threw down his Fire-Tipped Spear, went to Taiyi Zhenren, tugged at his beard, and prepared to extract something from Taiyi Zhenren.

"Master, I always feel flustered and overwhelmed when I fight him, like my brain isn't working properly!"

Nezha asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Yes, Nezha, yes."

Taiyi Zhenren immediately said, "If the brain and hands aren't enough, then just install two more. Gu Qing's combat experience and proficiency in various moves make him an extremely rare combat-type character in the Three Realms."

Yang Chan sat to one side, quietly memorizing everything. She had been in the Golden Light Cave for quite some time, but Master Taiyi did not teach her anything. Her current breathing techniques and the ability to mobilize true energy were all taught by Gu Qing.

"Master Gu".

Taiyi Zhenren said, "Let's discuss the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover again."

The Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover is the most prized magic weapon of Master Taiyi. However, Gu Qing, as the essence of the sun, is proficient in fire-based supernatural powers and has also gained insight into the Xuanhuo Mirror and the Eight Fiends Xuanhuo Formation in the world of Zhu Xian. During the discussion, he can also give Master Taiyi some refreshing suggestions.

Gu Qing gladly stepped forward and began discussing with Taiyi Zhenren. During their exchange, Gu Qing also secretly crafted a Sun-Shooting Bow for himself using the materials provided by Taiyi Zhenren.

……

"Why are you chasing me?"

Lu Ya was extremely irritable.

Without any clear explanation, the Heavenly Court suddenly dispatched an army of 50,000 to besiege Lu Ya, causing him to flee from Dong Sheng Shen Zhou to Nan Zhan Bu Zhou, and then from Nan Zhan Bu Zhou to Xin Niu He Zhou. The Heavenly Court relentlessly pursued him, and Lu Ya fought back several times along the way, causing the Heavenly Court to suffer heavy losses. However, out of consideration for the Jade Emperor, he mostly avoided the Heavenly Court.

"Don't you understand why we're pursuing you?"

Marshal Tianpeng shouted.

"I really don't understand!"

Lu Ya froze, turned around, and faced Marshal Tianpeng. In this eye contact, Marshal Tianpeng felt extremely unfamiliar with Lu Ya. He thought of his battle with Lu Ya. Although Lu Ya was the essence of the Li Fire, he was very different from the one who had blown up the heavenly soldiers and generals...

This led Marshal Tianpeng to a bizarre speculation.

"Is this you?"

Marshal Tianpeng placed Gu Qing's portrait in front of Lu Ya.

Lu Ya looked at the portrait, nodded, and said, "It's me. I was very handsome back then."

……

Heavenly Court, Jade Pool.

Here, lotus flowers bloom, hidden within the palace. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother sit in the Jade Pool, observing the scene outside. Suddenly, they reach out and say, "Bring Fifth Brother!"

After this fox spirit arrived in Heaven, she wanted to become an immortal. The Jade Emperor thought her heart was impure, so he put her aside and waited until Lu Ya and Nezha were brought to justice before making any plans. However, this person's false information caused such a joke to happen in Heaven.

Fifth Brother silently stepped forward, his face full of smiles, thinking about the wonderful days he would have after attaining immortality, and almost hummed softly.

"Send him to the deepest level of hell!"

The Jade Emperor pointed at Fifth Brother and said angrily.

"Jade Emperor, I've been wronged!"

Although Fifth Brother didn't know what went wrong, it was right for him to cry out that he was innocent. However, the heavenly soldiers were ruthless and immediately took Fifth Brother away without any explanation, leaving him no idea what he had done wrong.

"Withdraw Lu Ya's..."

The Jade Emperor was about to issue an order.

"no!"

The Queen Mother of the West said from the side, "This matter concerns the dignity of the Heavenly Court and cannot be withdrawn." If it is withdrawn, the people of the Three Realms will know that the Jade Emperor misjudged people and was deceived by demons, which will greatly damage his dignity.

"Now that things have happened, right is right and wrong is right, because you are the Jade Emperor, so you are right in everything."

The Queen Mother said, "The one who rescued the child from the Heavenly Court's encirclement must be Lu Ya. As for that other person, we will investigate carefully and it won't be too late to accuse him when we find traces of him!"

To save face for the Jade Emperor, Lu Ya was destined to take the blame.

"But……"

"Let's start with that kid!"

The Queen Mother said, "The Dragon King of the East Sea, Ao Guang, has already reported his name and origin. We will dispatch heavenly soldiers and generals to directly suppress him..."

……

Qianyuan Mountain, Jinguan Cave.

Li An, a servant of Li Jing, the general of Chentang Pass, hurriedly came here and knocked on the door to pay his respects.

With a flick of his whisk, Taiyi Zhenren opened the door. Li An approached and, upon seeing Nezha, burst into tears, saying, "The heavenly soldiers and generals have pressed down on Chentang Pass, saying that if you don't appear soon, they will wipe out every last one of them!"

Gu Qing paused slightly after hearing this.

This indiscriminate killing of mortals is something even the Heavenly Court is capable of. Behind the battle where Erlang Shen captured the Third Holy Mother was a local populace that had angered the Jade Emperor and was about to bring disaster upon them. Between hundreds of thousands of people and Yang Chan, Yang Jian chose the hundreds of thousands of people. By capturing Yang Chan, he secured his own position and then mediated to save the people.

"This day has finally come."

Taiyi Zhenren said helplessly.

Without saying a word, Nezha picked up his Fire-Tipped Spear and Universe Ring, and left the Golden Light Cave on his Wind-Fire Wheels.

"Master, is he in any danger on this trip?"

Yang Chan asked with concern.

Although Yang Chan didn't spend much time in the Golden Light Cave, she came to regard Nezha as a good friend.

Taiyi Zhenren nodded helplessly and said, "Ten deaths without hope of survival!"

This is Nezha's death calamity.

"So how should we rescue him?"

Yang Chan quickly asked.

Taiyi Zhenren shook his head.

Yang Chan didn't believe it and quickly asked about the location of Chen Tang Pass. Although her magical power was weak, she was willing to do her part for Nezha.

"Ugh……"

Taiyi Zhenren pointed out the location to her, and after Yang Chan left, he closed the cave. Looking at Gu Qing, he said, "Actually, you don't need to teach her so many secrets. She possesses the bloodline of Yao Ji. With just a little cultivation, she will be at the peak of the Celestial Immortal realm, which is better than someone like you who ate the Peaches of Immortality and is already at the True Immortal realm..."

As a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, Taiyi Zhenren has been in seclusion under Yuanshi Tianzun's guidance. Recently, Taiyi Zhenren has had a subtle connection with Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Now they're all gone..."

Taiyi Zhenren said, "We should also have a proper discussion on the Dao."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing couldn't help but smile. After spending many days in the Golden Light Cave, it was finally time to talk about what he liked.

"I'd like to start by discussing the seventy-two transformations."

Gu Qing said.

The value of the Seventy-Two Transformations is something everyone who knows understands.

"Good good!"

Master Taiyi nodded repeatedly and said, "First, we must find the flaws in the Heavenly Rules..."
