This is so dishonest!

Chapter 353 Heretical Celestial Venerable, Ambush Plan [Two-in-One, 6k]

The universe encompasses the four directions, and the past and present are called time.

The deities who travel between ancient and modern times crossed the initial node, treading on the light of time, and descended along the long river of time and space.

Under the vast expanse of cosmic light, the three figures crossed the primordial node almost simultaneously.

In this long river of time and space, three figures, bathed in gentle yet majestic cosmic light, are drifting downstream.

They had just crossed the initial point known as the "Age of Creation," a source filled with chaos, destruction, creation, and... terror.

Even for newly ascended Great Luo Golden Immortals like them, their experiences there were enough to be etched into their hearts, becoming eternal topics of conversation and warnings.

"Congratulations, Brother Guangcheng! Congratulations, Brother Chijing! You have both attained the Dao of Taiji and achieved the Great Luo Fruit, from now on you will be free beyond time and space, indestructible for countless eons!"

"Our second-generation disciples of the Chan Sect have finally gained two more pillars of strength. In the future, they will govern the Netherworld Reincarnation, their might will shake the heavens, and the Netherworld will flourish. It is only a matter of time!"

The speaker was a Taoist priest dressed in a light blue robe, with a handsome face and a slightly unconventional and unrestrained demeanor.

He smiled broadly, his tone filled with genuine joy, and bowed to the two Taoist priests beside him, whose auras were even more composed and dignified, to offer his congratulations.

These two were none other than Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi, inner disciples of the Chan Sect.

At this moment, their bodies were filled with Daoist energy, clearly indicating that they had just stabilized their Taiji Luo realm, and their joy was palpable.

Guang Chengzi had an ancient and simple face and calm eyes. Hearing this, he nodded slightly and returned the greeting, saying, "Brother Fuzhu, you are too kind."

"We also congratulate you, fellow Daoist, on your ascension to the heavens and attainment of the Great Luo Free and Unfettered Dao Fruit."

"To be honest, Junior Brother Chi Jing and I were quite surprised. We originally thought that Meng Huai, the most troublesome and unruly member of the outer sect, would be the first to attain enlightenment!"

"I never expected that you, Brother Dao, would come out on top. Congratulations!"

Chi Jingzi, with a face as fair as jade, held the Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand and laughed, "Absolutely right, absolutely right!"

"Although fellow Daoists are usually... well, very active, Junior Brother Meng Huai's tendency to jump around and stir up trouble is truly unique to our Chan Sect."

"We even made a bet in private before, betting on when Junior Brother Meng Huai would cause a huge mess, put on a spectacular show, and then be 'forced' to prove himself as a Great Luo in order to protect himself!"

Before them stood Fuzhu, the chief disciple of the outer sect of the Chan Sect!
He and Meng Huai, the second disciple of the outer sect of the Chan Sect, were known as the "Two Evils of the Chan Sect".

They used to cause a lot of trouble at the Tai Sha Heavenly Palace, deceiving the outer disciples to the point of near death.

Even the establishment of the Netherworld Sect and the Chan Sect was thanks to these two lively characters.

"This time, Meng Huai made a mistake and fell behind you in the process of attaining the Great Luo Dao. Your position as the senior disciple of the outer sect is now as secure as a mountain."

Guang Chengzi looked at Fu Zhu with a smile.

The inner disciples of the Chan Sect were elevated to the status of celestial immortals, who then took charge of the netherworld.

The outer sect of the Chan Sect was converted into the Demonic Sect and transformed into the Demon King.

As the senior disciple of the inner sect, Guang Chengzi usually has to be careful to deal with his mischievous junior brothers and sisters.

As the eldest brother of all the demon kings, Fu Zhu's pressure was immense.

If it weren't for the eldest sister, Qingxiao Shennu, who was in charge of the laws of the Demonic Sect and suppressed those lawless demon kings from time to time, Fuzhu, the eldest brother, would have been overthrown long ago.

"This is all just luck, nothing compared to you two fellow Daoists."

Fu Zhu was very humble.

Chi Jingzi shook his head: "Which one who attains the Great Luo Dao is one who is lucky? Fellow Daoist is too modest."

Guang Chengzi also laughed and said, "That's right, there are no outsiders here. The way you were unrestrained after being certified by the Great God Pangu is quite different from how you are now."

"Cough cough~~"

Fu Zhu blushed and said, "Fellow Daoists, please don't expose my secrets."

Chi Jingzi shook his head and said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken. To attain the Great Luo Dao and transcend time and space, how can it be summarized by the word 'luck'?"

“Every Great Luo Supreme is a powerful being who has experienced endless tribulations, struggled to survive in the Great Dao, and finally comprehended their own path to immortality.”

"The hard work, wisdom, and opportunities behind it are all indispensable."

"Fellow Daoist, your ability to defy the immense pressure of being 'certified' by three great gods of Pangu during the aftermath of this great calamity of creation proves your extraordinary nature."

Guang Chengzi also laughed and said, "That's right, that's right! Brother Fuzhu, there are no outsiders here, only our own fellow disciples."

“We saw clearly what kind of unruly behavior you displayed after you were ‘certified’ by the Great God Pangu at that primordial point!”

"He's completely different from his current gentlemanly demeanor!"

"Cough cough~~ cough cough cough!"

Having his secret exposed, even the thick-skinned Fu Zhu couldn't help but blush: "That...that was...I couldn't control myself for a moment!"

"Fellow Daoists, please don't expose my secrets."

He just let out a couple of loud shouts of joy after he attained enlightenment and transcended worldly desires!

"Alright, alright, I won't laugh at you anymore." Seeing that he was indeed a little embarrassed, Chi Jingzi changed the subject and asked curiously:
"Oh, by the way, fellow Daoists, what rank did you obtain from the [True Realm of the Great Dao] when you attained the Great Luo Dao this time?"

Upon hearing this, Guang Chengzi also showed an interested expression.

The Great Dao Realm is infinitely profound, and for the disciples of the Chan Sect, it is like a huge treasure trove and a cultivation accelerator.

It contains countless "positions" related to the Great Dao.

These positions are not simply titles, but rather the manifestation of the authority of the Great Dao, the embodiment of the laws.

Receiving the blessing of a karmic position not only accelerates the comprehension of the corresponding Great Dao, but also allows one to mobilize some of the power of the laws of heaven and earth. Under certain circumstances, one may even obtain some incredible supernatural powers and protection.

Among them, the most important position is naturally the position of "Three Pure Ones," which symbolizes the source of the Great Dao and the supreme Dao fruit.

Secondly, there are the various demon kings, emperors, supreme saints, and the innate divine positions transformed from the primordial nine energies.

Disciples of the Chan Sect can obtain many benefits from the [True Realm of the Great Dao].

For example, one can infuse a wisp of true spirit into it at any time, listen to the wondrous sounds of the Great Dao, and comprehend the profound mysteries of the laws.

You can also choose the business space you like based on your own needs.

When the time is right, one can even directly receive the karmic position that best suits one's own Dao from the True Realm.

This has immeasurable benefits for consolidating one's foundation, enhancing strength, and even for vying for control of the world in the future.

"Oh dear, I had forgotten if you two hadn't mentioned it." Fu Zhu slapped his forehead, and a wisp of his true spirit flew into the air, causing the [Great Dao True Realm] in the darkness to tremble.

Before long, a sinister, demonic light descended and transformed into a divine tablet.

Guang Chengzi saw it and read the Taoist inscription on it.

"The True Demon King of Danling?"

Guang Chengzi thought for a moment and said, "This seems to be the position of the Great Luo Demon King in the lineage of the Supreme Demon Lord."

Chi Jingzi laughed and said, "Hey, it seems that Grandmaster Uncle has taken a liking to Fellow Daoist Fuzhu!"

Fuzhu accepted the ancestral tablet and said solemnly, "Thank you for your kindness, Grandmaster Uncle!"

Just as Fuzhu was about to put away the divine tablet, the [Great Dao True Realm] trembled again, even more violently than before!

"Eh? There's more?"

Immediately afterwards, another ray of light descended. This ray of light was different from the previous demonic aura. It was full of magnificent grandeur, vast vitality and supreme majesty, as if it contained the primordial Daoist charm of the creation of the world!

"This is?"

The three deities looked at the second divine tablet with puzzled expressions.

It reads in bold letters: The Antarctic Emperor of Immortality!
"???"

Upon seeing it, Fuzhu was first taken aback, then overjoyed. He rushed forward and embraced the divine tablet, so excited that he became incoherent, repeatedly bowing towards the direction of the Jade Void Palace:

"Thank you, Master! Thank you for your kindness, Master!"

"Master, you love me so much! Your disciple kowtows to you! Bang bang bang!"

His acting was excellent; he was so excited that he almost actually kowtowed in the river of time.

No wonder he lost his composure like that.

The title of "Emperor of Longevity in Antarctica" carries immense weight!
This is no ordinary imperial title, but a primordial sacred title derived from the "Longevity Qi," one of the "Nine Primordial Qi"!

Obtaining it means that when Fuzhu practices the Primordial Great Dao, especially the laws related to life, creation, and longevity, he will receive unimaginable blessings.

Guang Chengzi, who knew the inside story of this position, gave a special reminder: "If the deity represented by this position were to perish, then fellow Daoists Fuzhu would definitely be able to get a share of the other party's Great Dao."

It's no coincidence that the cult leader gave out this position.

It should be noted that the Antarctic Longevity Emperor is actually a pseudonym of the Qilin clan.

Chi Jingzi looked at Fuzhu with some envy: "Fellow Daoist, you are blessed with great fortune. Now that the First Qilin is dead, you should strive to live up to his expectations!"

This means that if the leader works hard and Fuzhu himself works even harder, it won't be a problem for Fuzhu to grow into a powerful figure in the future.

Of course, occupying the position of the Antarctic Immortal Emperor also carries some risks.

In the future, if a member of the Qilin clan falls from the Great Luo realm, theoretically there is a certain chance that they can return by using the position of the [Antarctic Longevity Emperor].

However, as long as the Chan Sect exists, the possibility of this happening is zero.

The name of Yuanshi Tianzun is awe-inspiring throughout the heavens; who would dare to seize the position he personally bestowed upon his disciple?
Even if Shi Qilin himself came, it would be difficult.

After the three newly promoted Great Luo Immortals tallied their gains in the creation era, bathed in the baptism of cosmic light, and received the abundant gifts of the Great Dao, they continued to travel along the river of time and space back to their primordial world.

Hua Hua Hua~~
The river of time flows ceaselessly, and the changing light and shadow in the water reflect countless strange scenes.

Halfway there, the three suddenly sensed an indescribable creature passing by.

Guang Chengzi looked over and saw two sticky, messy tentacles, exuding an aura of ignorance, hanging in the air, counting the gold coins one by one.

"Is this [evil] or [evil spirit]?" Chi Jingzi frowned.

The indescribable creature slowly turned its head and looked over curiously.

Upon hearing Chi Jingzi's question, He shook His head and replied, "No... I am neither evil nor a demon..."

His "speech" was slow, as if each syllable needed to be painstakingly pulled out from a viscous chaos, "I am... Fu... Sheng... Xuan... Huang... Tian... Zun..."

"Fusheng Xuanhuang Heavenly Venerable?" The three deities looked at each other, completely bewildered.

This name sounds quite respectable.

It even evokes the feeling of "May the Heavenly Venerable grant boundless blessings".

But this image... it doesn't look like it has anything to do with the character "福" (fortune/blessing) at all!

At that moment, another sound resounded throughout time and space.

"The Supreme God, the Immeasurable, Pure, and Holy Ruler of the Three Realms and Ten Directions, the True Sovereign of All Spirits!"

A real name with twenty characters!

Each word seemed to contain boundless Taoist wisdom and authority, yet they combined to form a terrifying will that made one's heart tremble!
As Guang Chengzi and the others looked, an unimaginably enormous phantom of a deity was slowly emerging.

His image is extremely contradictory and terrifying: his figure is blurry, shrouded in a chaotic halo, and his specific appearance cannot be clearly seen, but one can feel an extreme "emptiness" and "nothingness".

From the edge of the halo, countless arms, like withered tree branches, with sharp, black fingernails, stretched out.

Each hand held a newborn, pink and adorable baby.

Behind Him seemed to lie a boundless "vacuum homeland," both an end and a beginning. Countless spirits, like moths to a flame, plunged into it, instantly dissolving and vanishing into nothingness.

His breath contains both the compassion that nurtures all things and the desolation that brings an end to everything.

The sacred and the evil, creation and destruction, are strangely unified in Him.

Eternal Mother!

When Guang Chengzi and the others "saw" each other, a respectful name naturally came to mind.

Besides these two, in every major tributary of the river of time and space, there are deities of the Great Luo Supreme level proclaiming their existence.

Moreover, each one is stranger and more distorted than the last.

"Good heavens!" Guang Chengzi gasped.

"That tentacle monster counting money just now, and now this hollow mom holding a baby... What kind of monsters and demons are we going to the Creation Era with?!"

The three of them were secretly surprised.

Little did they know that in the eyes of beings such as Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun and Wusheng Laomu, Guangchengzi, Chijingzi, and Fuzhu, the three immortals of the Chan Sect, were also extremely terrifying and worthy of vigilance.

The reason is simple: all the immortals of the Chan Sect, from the leader to his disciples, share one characteristic—their spirituality is ingrained!
It can influence everyone without them even realizing it.

For deities accustomed to polluting other beings, the immortals of the Chan Sect are also highly poisonous.

The chaotic laws and polluted realms that they painstakingly constructed according to their own logic will melt and disintegrate like ice and snow meeting the sun in the face of the "Dao staining" of the Chan Sect immortals.

They were even forcibly "corrected" and incorporated into the order framework of the Chan sect.

They might also be "bent," influenced by unorthodox rules, and led astray.

This is an unacceptable and deadly threat to gods who are accustomed to polluting and distorting other beings!

Therefore, when the illusory image of the Eternal Mother noticed the pure and domineering Jade Purity Immortal Light and Primordial Dao Rhyme on Guang Chengzi and the other two.

His countless arms holding the baby paused slightly, and then the entire phantom quickly faded like ink splashed in water, merging into the background of the river of time and space and disappearing.

The tentacles of the Heavenly Venerable Fusheng Xuanhuang stopped counting money, and a hint of wariness and...disdain seemed to flash in his eyes as he looked at the three deities.
Then, the tentacles silently retreated into nothingness.

A glint of excitement flashed in Fu Zhu's eyes.

These strange "heretical deities" seem...quite interesting?
Just then, from the source of the River of Time and Space came an incomparable, supreme, and terrifying pressure that seemed to redefine the entire river!
Wow~~
The light of the universe surged, and the Great Dao roared!
Three figures, as if walking from the source of mythology, the starting point of all paths, traversing endless time and space in one step.

It is none other than the Three Pure Ones, who have just returned from the era of creation!

Their figures appear clear yet are also blurry and uncertain, as if they exist simultaneously in the past, present, and future, in all dimensions of time and space.

"Ouch~~, my head hurts, my head hurts!"

Yu Chen Daojun rubbed his temples, "I never expected that the Great God Pangu would actually launch a sneak attack!"

"Indeed, we miscalculated." There was a hint of helplessness deep in the Supreme Being's eyes.

"The Great God Pangu really didn't hold back; he cleaved us back in an instant."

Sanqing was somewhat depressed.

Who would have thought that the god Pangu could be so creative?
The mighty creator god actually dared to ambush "himself"!

"However, we also reaped a great harvest this time!"

Xuanqing said, "At least, we killed one Pangu!"

When the ancestral god Pangu was mentioned, the Three Pure Ones all laughed.

They could certainly tell that the Ancestral Witches had received a gift from Pangu, and were even acquiring the identity of Pangu's true lineage.

But they still managed to cut them down!
"We need to make them realize who's in charge!"

The Three Pure Ones, while criticizing Pangu Zhenren, reminisced about the thrill of defeating the Ancestral Witch Pangu, and traveled back along the river of time.

Wherever they went, the Great Way followed them automatically, the light of the universe submitted to them, and all sorts of incredible phenomena accompanied them.

Their presence, like an invisible storm, swept across the entire river of time and space.

The "heretical deities" who were about to leave were alarmed once again.

This time, what they felt was no longer the "tainting of the Dao" by the disciples of the Chan Sect, but the supreme pressure originating from the source of the Great Dao!

Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun's tentacles shrank even deeper, and he didn't even bother to count the gold coins anymore.

Ripples spread across the void of the Eternal Mother's homeland, as if it were preparing to completely "return to nothingness" at any moment.

A crackling noise appeared in the ears of a certain mechanical god.

……

These ancient beings, who are revered and considered ancestors throughout the universe, now felt that their own "Dao" was so shallow, distorted, and vulnerable in front of the Three Pure Ones.

As if sensing these prying gazes, the Three Pure Ones did not stop, but calmly swept their gaze across every corner of the river of time and space.

Those heretical celestial beings, swept over by this glance, were as if being directly swept away by a torrent of the Great Dao, and were filled with horror.

They all quickly reverted to their own timelines.

"Are these all newly promoted Great Luo Immortals?" Jade Emperor Daoist asked curiously.

In the primordial era, when they swung their axes, they killed nothing but chaotic demons.

I never expected to see so many strange and wonderful Supreme Beings after I returned.

It seems that very few of them are from the Primordial True Realm.

"The myriad realms of the heavens have always been diverse and colorful."

Xuanqing thought back to the days when he traveled through countless worlds, and he was still very happy.

The Three Pure Ones went downstream and arrived in front of Guang Chengzi and the others.

"You've done very well." A hint of approval appeared on Xuan Qing's face.

Guang Chengzi and the other two quickly bowed and greeted their master: "Disciples pay respects to our master!"

Upon seeing the three Celestial Venerables, they instantly realized the truth.

No wonder! No wonder the creation era saw one ancient being transform into three!
It turns out it was all thanks to the three cult leaders!

"That's right! With three cult leaders around, it would be strange if the Creation Era could function normally!" the three disciples thought to themselves.

They are incredibly grateful now.

Passing the certification under one's own master is no small matter.

Just then, Fuzhu, who had been acting rather carefree, suddenly mustered his courage, his eyes gleaming with excitement, and stepped forward, bowing to Xuanqing to ask for permission:
“Reporting to Master! This disciple has just attained enlightenment and feels that my foundation in the Dao is still shallow and my knowledge and experience are insufficient.”

"On my way back just now, I happened to meet a few... well, fellow Daoists with rather peculiar paths of cultivation. I am quite curious about them."

"Therefore, I humbly request Master's permission to travel to their world or time and space to take a look and see for myself. Perhaps... it might also help my Chan (Demon) Sect to develop some new businesses?"

"Oh? You want to go to those worlds?" Xuan Qing glanced again in the direction where those heretical celestial beings had left, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"Exactly!" Fuzhu nodded quickly, his eyes filled with anticipation, looking eager to try.

"This disciple promises that I'll just go and take a look, and I absolutely won't cause any trouble! Uh... I'll try my best not to cause any major trouble!"

Xuan Qing looked at his eldest outer disciple, who had just attained enlightenment and wanted to go out and work on his own, and laughed, "Go ahead. You don't even need to report to me. If a Grand Luo Supreme wants to expand his business, do you think I can stop you?"

"Of course, I also have a request."

The monks said, "Master, please speak."

"Remember to bring Meng Huai with you."

"Huh?" Fuzhu was taken aback.

Xuanqing asked with a smile, "What, you don't want to?"

"Yes, disciple is willing!" Fuzhu's expression was a mixture of joy and worry.

The thought of Meng Huai, that scourge, gave him a headache.

Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi listened from the side, their lips twitching slightly.

In their hearts, they silently lit a candle for those heretical worlds and deities.

But then I thought, these two aren't exactly peaceful even if they stay in the prehistoric world. It's better to let them out and cause trouble for others than for their own people.

"Alright, we'll head back now. You can do as you please."

Xuanqing did not impose many restrictions on his disciples.

After giving a few instructions to their disciples, the Three Pure Ones returned to the Primordial World.

Hua Hua Hua~~~
On a tributary of the river of time, thirteen figures stood side by side, silently watching the Three Pure Ones depart.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Luo, didn't you say you were going to ambush them? Why did you give up just now?" Zhu Rong looked at Wu Luo in confusion.

Wu Luo glared at Zhu Rong: "Didn't you say that you wanted to rush up and kill the Three Pure Ones as soon as you saw them? Why don't you go up there?"

Zhu Rong smiled sheepishly and turned to rebuke Gong Gong.

"Gonggong, what's wrong with you? Didn't you say you were going to control the Water of Time and teach the Three Pure Ones a lesson?"

Gonggong kicked Zhujiuyin: "Speak."

Zhu Jiuyin remained silent and spoke the truth directly: "What's there to say? What's there to say if you can't beat them?"

The ancestral witches present all fell silent.

They were killed by the Three Pure Ones first, so they returned ahead of time.

I was so angry when I got back that I decided to confront Sanqing again.

Therefore, they did not even bother to publicize their existence throughout the ages.

When the Three Pure Ones actually returned, the Ancestral Witches all hesitated to proceed.

"We are all descendants of Pangu, and it is really not a good thing for us to fight among ourselves. Let's let them go this time!"

In the end, the ancestral witches were magnanimous and chose to forgive the Three Pure Ones.

~~~
"They actually held back."

The three Qing masters turned around at the same time, their expressions showing some regret.

They were just waiting for the Ancestral Witch to come up and reason with them after being ambushed by Pangu.

Unfortunately, the ancestral witch did not fall for it.

"It seems we need to settle this score with Hongjun!"

Yujing Mountain.

Hongjun touched his neck: "Why does it feel a little chilly?"

He took out the Jade Disc of Creation, calculated for a moment, and then devoted himself to perfecting the Corpse-Severing Technique.
