Chapter 346 Unparalleled! Unparalleled! Unparalleled! (1.05 million views, please vote!)
Jade Palace Immortal Venerable merely raised his rear end, and his good master immediately discerned the stench of the fart the Immortal Venerable was about to unleash.

Lao Mang guessed that he might become the price to pay!
why?
No matter how Lao Mang answers the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's question, it doesn't have to be correct.
To steer the blame onto the elephant is to steer the blame onto the Bifang.

Before, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable addressed Bifang as His Majesty, or at the very least, as an Immortal King.

Now, calling Bifang by its name will not affect Bifang, because it is not in the Four Spirits Realm.

Therefore, isn't it the elephant itself that bears the consequences?
Many reasons need not be investigated in detail, and many logics do not even need to be considered. The situation is complex, but the core contradiction is simple. Mangxiang is very certain that he may be used as a price by the traitor.

"Yu Lou, I absolutely did not let Huan Pei go on purpose!" Old Mang argued.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable did not respond to Mang Xiang's explanation; he did not want to bear the consequences and could only shift the blame to Mang Xiang.

But now, the more important thing is to immediately connect with Lan Jin regarding the situation in the Four Spirit Realms. Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has lost the initiative in the next round of the Four Spirit Realms, but if he can obtain the support of more top-tier Golden Core cultivators from the Great Heaven and Earth, future defeats will not be so difficult.

While communicating with the Blue Forbidden Dragon God, the Water Venerable's voice also rang in the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's ears.

It turns out that the Taihe Water Venerable can communicate with the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.
This is actually normal. The Water Venerable is a top-level Golden Core cultivator who cultivates water magic. The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has mastered seven water-related Great Daos, and these seven naturally overlap with those of the Water Venerable.

"The situation is rather complicated. You want to kick Bifang out, but you can't kick out our Immortal Alliance."

Bi Fang made a scene at the winnowing basket fair, so we've brought Tianlongtang along to support you.

The key lies in the situation within the Four Spirit Realms. How confident are you of victory? What support do you need? What can you offer us?

The Jade Palace Immortal was not in a good mood.

Within the Four Spirit Realms, without Lao Deng as his backer, he faced considerable difficulties in his early years.

Later, after regaining his cultivation, without the constraints of his superiors, life became incredibly enjoyable.

Now, under the pressure of the situation, it is gradually connecting with the vast universe.
Having someone to support you will certainly make things much easier, but the top Golden Core cultivators of the Immortal Alliance and the Dragon Gods of the Heavenly Dragon Hall are not charitable organizations.

They not only want a return, but they want a lot of it.
The desire to devour the Four Spirit Realms seems to have become nothing more than a mirage, a dream unrealized.

'I understand that the current situation in the Four Spirit Realms is that the Heavenly Outer Heaven's henchmen and immortals are secretly watching and have the advantage of being able to act at will.'

I was most likely tricked by Mangxiang or Bifang this time, and lost my advantage in cooperating with the native Golden Core cultivators.

In the future, as the confrontation deepens, my disadvantages will become increasingly greater.

Water Lord, could you send a few weaker Golden Core cultivators over to help me out?

The Four Spirit Realms are lacking water, and I am replenishing water for this realm.

Please send a few more of your capable subordinates to help me replenish the water.

The day the hydration is complete, I will become the fifth venerable one in the Immortal Alliance, and I can support you in becoming the true leader of the Immortal Alliance.

The Jade Palace Immortal has truly attained enlightenment.

To Mu Fan—the four spirit realms are evenly matched, I will introduce you to the vast world on the table, and guide you through the myriad realms.

I'll give Wuji and Huanpei a 30/70 split in the Four Spirit Realms, or even 50/50 if necessary. I only care about development and won't fight for supremacy for now. I guarantee you won't lose, or at least you'll win a small victory.

To Water Venerable—Old Water, send a few disciples with profound water magic skills to help me replenish water. Then I will support you to become the true leader of the Immortal Alliance.

There's practically no action; all that's left is empty promises.

It's not that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has a big face and is naively trying to gain face.

It's not that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was too incompetent; he promised one cake to three different families.

The very nature of 'unresolved', 'possibility', and 'change' emerges step by step in an unpredictable and dynamic development.

Therefore, "drawing a pie in the sky" is not just drawing a pie in the sky; it corresponds to different possibilities.

Whether this possibility can be realized is a complex process, but the future is bright.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is confident, and he still is.

'No. You just said you were tricked by Bifang and Mangxiang?'

Water Venerable was indeed taken aback by the situation in the Four Spirit Realms conveyed by Jade Palace Immortal Venerable—providing Jade Palace Immortal Venerable with some people was not a big deal in itself, but Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's most crucial confrontation was not about this.

Instead, it characterizes the behavior of Bifang and Mangxiang.

'Yes, the Lord of Limitless Dao and the Venerable of Limitless Dharma are very likely the same person, I...'
He suppressed the elephant from making a move, then suddenly let it, and then deliberately let the man go.

So, this matter is much more complicated than you think.

Bi Fang was putting on a show, but Mang Xiang messed it up and gave himself away.

What if things go wrong?
Shaking the pot?

Shifting blame is acceptable, but for an existence of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's stature, even a slight shift of blame could crush someone of insufficient size.

However, due to the need to shift blame, they cannot target someone lacking in substance.

Even a wild elephant won't do; it's just an extra!

However, if the blame is shifted to those who are powerful enough to withstand the pressure from the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, then the blame will be turned against them.

Therefore, it is not a reliable and efficient strategy.

So the question then returns to whether or not to amputate a leg to save one's life.

Is it worthwhile to transfer most of the costs and bear the rest ourselves?

The Jade Palace Immortal's answer was yes.

First, survive.

He can't afford to lose too badly!
The Blue Forbidden Dragon God only allowed the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable to communicate with its forbidden magic, the Extinction of Spirits, so that he could enter the Basket Gathering's Dao Discussion Platform with his thoughts, without explaining the situation at the Basket Gathering.

The message conveyed by the water vessel in secret is quite clear.

Bi Fang tried to put pressure on the Immortal Alliance, unwilling to let Wang Yulou get out of control.

However, Wang Yulou has already failed due to losing control, so the losses and gains in this round can only be made up for from other sources.

Of course, one could wait for time to pass and for new opportunities to emerge, but the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable prefers to seize the present opportunity.

"You can't fool anyone else with what you're saying. Jade Pavilion, is the situation in the Four Spirit Realms very bad?" Water Venerable asked.

It turns out that the Taihe Water Vessel had discerned that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable had truly left alone.

Is the situation in the Four Spirit Realms not good?
No, the Water God is asking—are you exhausted from losing?
Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's approach, with its shifting of costs, misrepresentation, and distortion of truth, has a distinctly desperate and reckless feel to it.

After fooling Lan Jinlong, Wang Yulou began to fool Mu Fan and Gong Shande, while also having to contend with Taihe Shuizun in his heart.

Fortunately, the Golden Core realm transformed his life level, and his Divine Illumination Technique further enhanced his foundation, preventing him from being overwhelmed.

It's all about multi-threading, so what if you lose?
Qingrui lost, but she didn't pay the price.

Why is it that it doesn't work for me, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable?

You say Qingrui is strong?
I'm sorry, but I am unique within the Four Spirit Realms, and the Winnowing Basket Society will never abandon me!
'It's not a lie, Bi Fang just let the cat out of the bag.'

As for the situation in the Four Spirit Realms, it's not much better.

However, we need to invest more resources to prevent Bifang and the Wuji Dao Master from reaping the benefits.

Water Venerable remained silent for a long time; Jade Palace Immortal Venerable had completely dropped his pretense.

'Okay, I support you.'

Taihe Water Vessel replied.

Profit, profit, is the eternal pursuit of those who follow the path.

Efficiency is a false proposition because it is an evaluation dimension under a relative scale.

Different people have different levels of success and failure; it's impossible to calculate them all.

Only with endless resources, and with the conversion rate of Golden Immortals and top-tier Golden Core cultivators, can one achieve an absolute boost in strength as long as resources are fully utilized.

In the end, the more resources you have, the easier it is to win.

'I won't go to the Basket Gathering immediately. The Immortal Pendant has disappeared; I need to ensure my safety within the Four Spirit Realms first.'

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable also has to deal with the aftermath of the failed team-building event.

This is all just a bunch of trivial matters.

"Understood, understood. Tianlong Hall and we all support you, Yulou. Just do your job with peace of mind."

support?

backing?

No, they're hungry wolves coming to collect debts.
In the world of cultivation, there is never love without a reason among great cultivators.
No matter how much support you receive or how much reliance you take, you have to pay it all back.

However, for the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable at present, this is not the main contradiction.
-
The team-building activity failed.

This was the first time in the history of the Four Spirit Realms that such a large-scale team building event had taken place, with more than two hundred Golden Core Dao Ancestors participating alone.

Back when Jade Palace Immortal Venerable first entered the Four Spirit Realms, there were only two hundred Dao Ancestors in the Four Spirit Realms.

The 1,200-year period of stability directly led to a 40% increase in this number.

Nearly three hundred Taoist masters and more than two hundred people supported the water replenishment event.

The victory was objective; Jade Palace Immortal Venerable achieved great success in turning the initiative he had seized into concrete victories.

However, the more people an agenda and vision encompass, the greater the inherent contradictions among them will be. Therefore, more interests are needed to smooth out the internal friction.

Therefore, we must keep running.

Because of the unique nature of the Four Spirit Realms and the unique contradictions and conflicts that Jade Palace Immortal Venerable himself was in, the direction he should run became a problem.

Often, meat-eaters may seem to have many choices, but they may only have a few that offer the least resistance.

Therefore, when the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable realized that the stable era built by the Water Replenishment Conference in the Four Spirit Realms was being undermined from the bottom up, he immediately took the initiative to intervene and guided the Water Replenishment Conference to start a large-scale team building activity.

If the large-scale team building activity is successful, it will naturally mark a new chapter in the history of the times.

But now, at this crucial moment, the breath from the team-building activity hasn't been fully exhaled.

The outcome was far from what Jade Palace Immortal Venerable had expected.

Unfortunately, even after things have progressed to this point, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable still needs to maintain the status quo and ensure that his influence does not diminish.

This is a case of trying to win in a situation that is actually unfavorable, so it is naturally difficult to continue.

but
That's how it is in the world of cultivation; this isn't the first or second time that Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has been in a losing situation.

Although it is said that 'experiencing too many hardships will definitely prevent one from attaining enlightenment,' every single one of the old Dengs who truly stand at the pinnacle of the endless realms is an existence that defies the heavens.

Having experienced the most difficult situation and faced the most formidable enemy, one must achieve victory under such circumstances, and further, cultivate quickly enough to ensure the continuation of the advantage, rapidly advancing step by step towards the Dao Fruit position.

After seizing the Dao Fruit position, one must face the situation of "entering the Golden Core stage means facing the contradictory order constructed by top-tier Golden Core cultivators," and maintain one's own cultivation and existence under such circumstances.

Therefore, the path that Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is currently walking is the path that countless geniuses throughout the ages have walked.

It's the hardest, the most disgusting, the most ridiculous, and the most uncontrollable. And then, hey, you still have to win.

Can't win?
Then you're out.

One after another, the greatest talents of different eras embarked on the path of cultivation. However, the number of Golden Immortals who could break through the limits of cultivation and construct their own path, and the top-level Golden Core cultivators who stood at the threshold of supremacy, was pitifully small.

Elimination occurs quietly, all the time.

Therefore, the teachings that Di Shui imparted to Immortal Venerable Yu Que back then truly benefited Immortal Venerable Yu Que greatly.

It requires confidence, because even the slightest shift in the situation can cause those pursuing the Dao to become so troubled that their expressions contort and their resolve wavers.

This difficulty not only exists objectively, but is also constrained by the adversarial nature of the 'ignorant wilderness,' making it always uncontrollable.

Therefore, without self-confidence and the unwavering belief that one will surely succeed, it is truly impossible to move forward.

"Fellow Daoists, let's go to the Murong Dao Court to discuss the situation first." Mu Fan's emotions were quite stable. The Dao Ancestors who organized the Water Replenishment Conference went to the Murong Dao Court next to the Hundred Hands Dao Court for a detailed discussion.

In fact, this is simply a difference in stance. Different stances lead to different demands. Mu Fan and Jade Palace Immortal Venerable have completely different views and perspectives on many things.

In Mu Fan's view, Huan Pei's actions and escape fully demonstrate that there are higher levels on the path of cultivation, and that there is still room for improvement in his future.

Other realms exist beyond the Four Spirit Realms.
Therefore, Mu Fan was even somewhat pleased.

It's finally confirmed: there's still a road ahead of me!
As for Huanpei running away, it was unexpected, but not entirely unexpected.

If the enemies from other realms are so weak that they cannot resist in front of everyone, it means that Mu Fan's potential for advancement is limited.
Failure, astonishment and worry about Huanpei's formidable strength, fear of an uncertain future, and wariness of the unfamiliar "friends" beside him.

The numerous Dao Ancestors flew swiftly toward the Murong Dao Court in silence.

Most Golden Core cultivators still cannot easily gain transcendent knowledge by going through the process of practice. The huge failures and the 'accidents' that are like magical stories put a lot of pressure on everyone.

Gong Shande went directly to Jade Palace Immortal Venerable. It wasn't that he was going to cause trouble, but even the Heavenly Emperor Shande was losing control of the situation after Huanpei's explosive escape.

"Fellow Daoist Jing Shui, Mu Fan has chosen that sand ox as the punishment for 'not being proactive in replenishing water'."

Did you know about this beforehand, or did you find out later?

The fog of information is so terrifying; it's rife with conspiracies and shady deals.

Now, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has also become the kind of old man who stands in the shadows.

Considering he has cultivated for 1,500 years, making him a young but still powerful Golden Core cultivator from the old era, calling him a 'Great Old One' wouldn't be out of place. (Link to online novel, a reference; it's not that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is called that.)

"It's hard to say, this matter is very complicated, Fellow Daoist Shande, I've misunderstood you before."

Huanpei has begun to hide in the shadows, and Mu Fan has become the de facto number one in the Four Spirit Realms. Jade Palace Immortal Venerable must keep Gong Shande in check.

As long as he can keep Gong Shande in check, he can keep Mu Fan in check, and the situation in the entire Four Spirit Realms can be revitalized.

Ultimately, the Heavenly Emperor of Good Virtue was only the second-in-command.

Being the second child is never easy, no matter where you are.

Take the elderly man with the winnowing basket as an example; he often feels terribly helpless.

'Misunderstanding me?' Gong Shande never expected that such a scoundrel as Jing Shui would take the initiative to apologize.

It was so anthropomorphic that even the Heavenly Emperor of Good Virtue felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Yes, before, I shared similar thoughts with many other like-minded people.

For a long time, everyone thought that it was you, Brother Shande, who killed Brother Zhishui.

Mu Fan was also a master of leveraging circumstances, using Lu Zhishui's death to trap Empress Seondeok.

At that time, Mu Fan ostensibly helped to get out of trouble, but in reality, he used the threat from outsiders and the opinions of outsiders to keep Shan De under control.

'Mu Fan. Mu Fan is a despicable person. If he had known that Sha Niu had problems earlier, why would he only take action now?'

Ultimately, it's just playing both sides; it's deceiving and oppressing me on one hand, and fooling all the other hydration enthusiasts at the hydration conference.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable felt a slight sense of relief; the cooperation from Empress Shande was much greater than he had anticipated.

why?
With the wisdom of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, he quickly grasped the key point after a moment's thought.

It's still because it's the 'first time'.

The Water Replenishment Conference was a team-building event, marking the first time that all the Dao Ancestors of the Four Spirit Realms had participated in such a large-scale team-building activity.

The Water Replenishment Conference was the first large-scale gathering of the Dao Ancestors within the Four Spirit Realms to form an alliance under a single agenda.

For Gong Shande, this was the first time she had faced such an extreme situation: the struggle between first and second place for dominance and development rights.

Previously, Mu Fan always avoided Empress Seondeok, and even often pretended to be stupid and weak.

Empress Seondeok won every single time and became the 'Heavenly Emperor'.

But now, there are extraterrestrial visitors, a hydration event, a failed team building activity, years of being suppressed by Mu Fan, and a challenge to Mu Fan.

These things were equally difficult for Empress Seondeok to handle.

Mufan was confident in its strength, so it was quite satisfied that it could simply confirm the existence of a higher path.

Empress Seondeok's strength was not strong enough, so she was more worried about the situation, the future, and the unprecedented intensity of the confrontation.

Those who can cultivate in the unfortunate Four Spirit Realms have noses more intelligent than dogs, and Shan De must have definitely felt that immense intensity.

Mu Fan's scheming, Huan Pei's sudden burst of power, her own mystery—what does Gong Shande possess?
Emperor of Heaven?

Stop fooling around. After being made a clown by Mu Fan for so many years, Empress Seondeok's heart has been tormented enough.

It's not that she needs a warm embrace, but she certainly needs more support and allies.

"Fellow Daoist Mu Fan, sometimes you are a bit rough around the edges. It sees things from a higher perspective and doesn't understand the troubles of us ordinary people."

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable extended a further invitation.

Actually, we just had a small misunderstanding at the beginning of the hydration event; there was absolutely no conflict.

"Yes, it's all a misunderstanding, Fellow Daoist Pure Water. As you know, I've always been a strong supporter of hydration."

How could we not support it? The one in the Four Spirit Realms who most desires water is Mu Fan, followed by Gong Shande.

With everyone working together, in the end, the two of them will inevitably receive one of the highest rewards.

This is similar to a stock market boom. The process of replenishing water in the Four Spirit Realms is like a flood reaching its limit. Gong Shande and Mu Fan's resources are like the largest water basin, so they naturally receive more.

'Then let's communicate more. These are turbulent times, alas.' Jade Palace Immortal Venerable took a step back at this moment, because he hoped to see Gong Shande take the initiative.

It's not a romantic relationship, but it's even better than a romantic relationship.

After all, being too proactive at any time can be problematic.

"Our encirclement and suppression of Sha Niu has failed. Fellow Daoist Jing Shui, what do you think we should do next?" Empress Shan De smoothly pressed forward.

This is the survival instinct of a Golden Immortal in the Four Spirit Realms; she knows what she should do at any given moment.

Moreover, what's most ingenious is that, up to this point, Empress Seondeok has been quite tacit, completely avoiding pointing out the sensitive issue of 'you, Jeongsoo, are also one of the Four Spirits' traitors.'

Value is never based on stance. Actions that are constrained by rules and stances are things that even Dao Ancestors and Golden Core cultivators would never do.

First, let's clarify the matter of Zhi Shui Dao You being harmed by Sha Niu!

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable gave an unexpected answer, and immediately, Empress Shande's eyes lit up.

It seems that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable intends to use his status as the Pure Water to assist Gong Shande in regaining his position.

Otherwise, she could still be suppressed and kidnapped by Mu Fan.

"Alright! Goodness, thank you, Fellow Daoist Pure Water!"

Thus, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's defeat in the next round officially began to be salvaged little by little.
-
"Time was too short, and my disciples were not very capable. I apologize for the poor hospitality, fellow Daoists."

In his Daoist court, Daoist Murong received the Daoist ancestors who had failed in their grand reunion.

However, few people paid any attention to it.

The failure was undeniable, and everyone was in a somber mood. "Mu Fan, did you know beforehand that Sha Niu was problematic, which is why you brought so many of us to attack it?"

The old man from the Nine Netherworlds couldn't help but break the silence.

Mu Fan tricked people into going to the battlefield, saying he would punch Nanshan Kindergarten, but in reality, he punched Godzilla.

Hong Xuanji of Sanxian Prefecture died instantly, her eyes wide open even in death – she died with her eyes open in disbelief.

What comes after a major failure?
Garlic sprouts!
No one wants to admit their incompetence, and incompetence in cultivation and strength cannot be changed overnight.

Therefore, it must be that bastard Mu Fan who is inhuman and plots recklessly.

In fact, it was indeed Mu Fan who led everyone there.
Furthermore, many intelligent people have realized that Lu Zhishui may not have been killed by Shan De. Therefore, the 'handle' that Mu Fan used to suppress Shan De and alienate the people from Shan De is gone.

With Gong Shande's assistance, some of the Daoist masters thought that the blame could be placed on Mu Fan.

Even if we can't kill Mu Fan, we can still manage to get something out of Mu Fan's Daoist temple.

In reality, the mastermind behind the Nine Netherworld Elder is the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

If I can't deal with Huanpei, I'll drag Gong Shande along and deal with you, Mu Fan!

The threat from Huanpei is not a concern; you, Mu Fan, are my greatest enemy right now.

Of course, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable wouldn't just jump out and act recklessly, so he nudged the Nine Nether Old Man, making the Nine Nether rush to the front.

"I don't know, I'm just thinking about finding a good target to start with."

Mu Fan glanced at the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable and reluctantly accepted the blame.

The jade pendant disappeared into the darkness. In this new round, the Dao Ancestors of the Four Spirit Realms need to unite even more closely.

Mu Fan knew that this defeat was something he had to overcome.

How did it go?

Let this unlucky guy who took the initiative to cause trouble for Sha Niu take the blame!

Settling the current conflicts and costs is an inevitable process of development, one that Mu Fan cannot escape, and he is psychologically prepared for.

However, judging from his initiative to communicate with Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, Mu Fan seems unaware that the one who truly lost was Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

Therefore, he probably didn't expect that the Old Man of the Nine Netherworlds was sent by his good ally, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, to stir up trouble.

However, there's no need to lament Mu Fan's misfortune, because it's really no good. If Gong Shande were even slightly weaker, Mu Fan would have taken advantage of the situation and killed him long ago.

"There is one more thing. Fellow Daoist Xuanji died instantly from that attack by Sha Niu, just like the death of Fellow Daoist Zhi Shui many years ago."

The Green Garlic Conference slowly began, and Mu Fan, the number one figure in the Four Spirit Realms, listlessly dealt with the disgusting situation.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's true 'failure in the future round' is being slowly repaired by his friends.

However, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable himself had already settled down and was wandering in the heavens.
-
A young man arrived at the winnowing basket fair.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's form was incredibly illusory, but Blue Forbidden Dragon God used the 'Forbidden Law Extinction Spirit Path' to create a 'transmission channel' for him, which ultimately allowed Jade Palace Immortal Venerable to 'see' the situation inside the Basket Gathering for Dao Discussion.

The "seeing" here does not refer to what the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable saw with his own eyes.

No matter how powerful a cultivator is, they are not this powerful—the endless void is not just for show.

The Blue Forbidden Dragon God could only let the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable know the situation, but could not relay messages for the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

So, the situation is actually quite interesting.

The Jade Palace Immortal arrived at the place where the Dao was discussed at the Bamboo Grove Gathering, but he could not communicate with anyone. He could only rely on his own judgment, courage, and wisdom to win support for himself and avoid being suppressed.

However, just as Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was about to greet the old beasts, he was shocked by Qingrui and Lao Luo's appearance.

Suppressing the sense of absurdity in his heart, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable felt that he admired Qingrui even more.

This older woman is really ruthless.

I'd rather be fucked by a dog than not win (Rakshasa's true form is a white dog).

The ceiling of having an iron will is...

"Wang Yulou, Lan Jin should have roughly told you about the situation."

Fellow Daoist Bifang said, "You have betrayed our Great Heaven and Earth, betrayed the Immortal Alliance, the Boluo Society, and all of us present here."

Do you have anything to explain?

The old man with the winnowing basket was asking complete nonsense—he wasn't helping Bifang at all.

Zhi Zhi Long Shen – a descendant of the Zi Ji Sword Sect – Dong Ji Yu Que Immortal Venerable – Lan Jin Long Shen sent a message.

Correspondingly, the Immortal Alliance and the Heavenly Dragon Hall have likely reached a tacit agreement to jointly support Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's endeavors in the Four Spirit Realms.

Therefore, the old man with the winnowing basket would definitely help the winning side.

It's important to understand that the principle of "whoever wins, helps whom" isn't some cliché, but a golden rule.

You can laugh at this behavior for not being heroic enough, but what does heroism even matter?
It's hard to say.

"Absolutely not! I, Wang Yuque, have never betrayed the Great Heaven and Earth, I, Wang Yuque, have never..."

With an indignant expression, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable righteously and solemnly revealed his true feelings.

Bi Fang felt a little nauseous.

The old man with the winnowing basket made it sound so exaggerated, as if he were letting the Jade Palace Immortal pass through the trial.

If the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable had any sense, he would never betray the Immortal Alliance and the Great Heaven and Earth.

What disgusted Bi Fang the most was Wang Yulou's arrogant attitude of "I swear my loyalty with my blood".

What are you pretending for?

You've already told me directly that you're the master of the Seven Seas Palace in the Outer Heavens. How shameless!
In other words, at the meeting, you have so many powerful backers that you can't count them on one hand.

Because those people are still around, your participation in this lottery is to help you win even more.

How could I possibly treat you like a pig with a green onion stuck in its nose, pretending to be an elephant!
"Alright, alright, Yulou, everyone knows you are the most loyal."

"Well then, tell me why we didn't follow Fellow Daoist Bifang's advice and deal with that immortal pendant promptly?" said the Rakshasa Demon Emperor.

At this point, the matter has been settled—the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable did not leave alone, did not betray, and remained loyal, the most loyal of all.

The care is genuine, but the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has already enjoyed the freedom of the Four Spirit Realms.

Like a caged bird that has experienced the freedom of the sky, it no longer enjoys the feeling of being cared for.

We still have to keep climbing, we still have to keep growing.

When you grow to the point where you can remain calm and collected in the face of any unexpected situation on your own, you no longer need to be at the mercy of Old Deng.

In fact, if we take the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's entry into the Western Sea and his formal involvement in the 'Bifang-Qingrui Alliance Reform Grand Chess Game' as the prelude, then...

At that time, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was just a typical caged bird, a caged bird controlled and manipulated by a great cultivator.

Now, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has flown out of the Great World, but his cultivation level is stuck between the Golden Immortal and the Golden Immortal realm, unable to forge his own path.

So he enjoyed a little bit of freedom, but was soon pushed back into a situation where he was influenced by others by reality.

If you want freedom, you still have to rely on yourself, forge your own unique path of cultivation, and reach the realm of a Golden Immortal.

When things reach that point, they will definitely be different from today.

"I have launched an offensive against the Immortal Pendant in the shortest possible time."

The Water Replenishment Ceremony within the Four Spirit Realms was attended by more than two hundred Dao Ancestors.

Just now, I gathered more than two hundred people and surrounded the cultivation grounds of Xianpei.

Therefore, I have always kept the matter of dealing with the fairy pendant in mind.

only"

I just didn't want to deal with her immediately. I only intended to exclude her to the point that she couldn't touch the Four Spirit Realms and could only passively wait for my assignment.

My purpose in initiating this large-scale team building activity is to carve out a new era of stability, and then, over time, catch up with you old guys.

That's why I refused Mangxiang's kind suggestion three times that I could use Bifang's Feather, and in the end, I accidentally let Huanpei escape in the out-of-control situation.

"But, fellow Daoists and seniors, have you ever considered that Senior Bifang and Dao Master Wuji are the same person?"

Suddenly, Qingrui felt the Rakshasa black hand on her buttocks tighten.

That's why people say Xiao Wang is a scoundrel, not even human.

He had known all along that Bifang and Wuji Daozhu were not the same person, and he had even confessed this to Luosha.

But at this moment, Wang Yulou used this as an excuse to absolve himself.

Fortunately, Rakshasa and Jade Palace Immortal Venerable were similar in that they kept their mouths shut about information. Therefore, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's plan was fortunate enough to avoid any unexpected events—such as someone suddenly jumping out and saying, "I've heard you say that Wuji Dao Master and Bifang are not the same person."

"Hahaha, continue, continue, Wang Yulou." Bi Fang laughed.

I was so angry at Wang Yulou that I laughed.

Bifang has already tasted what kind of shit the Donkey King wants to take!

You messed up, and now you're blaming the elephant, and me instead?
Very thoughtful.

Very courageous.

Very imaginative.

"This"

The old man with the winnowing basket, unaware of the collusion between the Jade Palace Immortal and the Water Venerable, immediately wanted to remind Wang Yulou not to go too far.

However, without the old man with the winnowing basket reminding him, the third person in the Great Heaven and Earth, the Immortal Ancestor of the Wutian Sect, spoke up.

“Yu Lou, you probably have some misunderstanding about Fellow Daoist Bi Fang. I know Fellow Daoist Bi Fang; he and Daoist Wuji simply share the name Wuji.”

Among the True Persons and Dao Ancestors in the Great Heaven and Earth, there are three others with the name Wuji.

Ultimately, it's nothing special; it's just a name. If it's the same as another name, so be it.

The moment the great cultivator made a move and spoke, he was immediately stared at and studied.

Since Jade Palace Immortal Venerable couldn't communicate with others, he could only keep guessing about the purpose of the Immortal Ancestor, the leader of the Wutian Sect.

However, after expending a lot of effort, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable gave up on this guessing game—if he couldn't figure it out, then let Water Venerable, Rakshasa, and the others have a headache.

His immediate priority is to execute his tactical maneuvers effectively.

"Fellow Daoists, Yu Lou has always suspected that the Immortal King Bi Fang and the Dao Lord Wuji have a special kind of avatar relationship."

One of them is a clone of the other.

Based on this suspicion, I was quite cautious in my activities within the Four Spirit Realms.

On the surface, that immortal pendant might belong to the Lord of Wuji, but in reality, it belongs to Bifang.

Under such circumstances, Bifang's act of having the monstrous elephant use its feathers to unleash its supernatural powers to attack the immortal pendant was like a performance.

That's why I didn't let the elephant do it.

The Limitless, the Lord of Bifang Dao is originally one person.

Mangxiang and Huanpei might be putting on an act. I, Wang Yulou, am very cautious, and of course I wouldn't dare let Mangxiang act recklessly.

The meeting was eerily quiet.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, this little Deng, is indeed bold in his words and deeds, making it seem as if he's about to dismantle the 'Bi Bo Alliance' on the spot.

"In my heart, there is the vast world, the Immortal Alliance, Water Venerable, Cangshan, Qingrui, Rakshasa, and all my fellow Daoists, who have been kind to me in my path to enlightenment."

Therefore, I waited until the most crucial moment, until the celestial pendant was in danger, before letting the monstrous elephant make its move.

But the mad elephant failed to achieve anything!
The feathers of the Immortal King Bifang were never activated, from beginning to end.

Therefore, I am even more certain that Bi Fang and the Wuji Dao Master are the same person.

My sudden arrangement disrupted Mangxiang and Xianpei's plan to perform, which led to this situation.

"Wang Yulou, are you perhaps possessed by some evil spirit?" Bi Fang finally spoke up.

That's outrageous, outrageous, outrageous.

This is truly a case of calling a deer a horse, fabricating something out of nothing, framing someone, and randomly labeling them.

"Immortal King Bifang, why did you tell me about 'going alone' to so many fellow Daoists at the Basket Gathering?"
Because you realized the situation was wrong, and I interrupted your performance!

Wang Yulou said loudly.

The young immortal venerable argued loudly, while the immortal king, feared and revered by all, had a gloomy face.

The wondrous Dharma of Wuji is hard to explain, and the small ascent of a thousand years can suppress Bifang?
Do not!
It's like 'the donkey's butt is directly connected to its big stomach, making Bifang cry out that it's too full!'
There won't be any brain-damaged people at the winnowing basket meeting who would doubt something just because the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable said it.

Everyone knows that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is talking nonsense.

I, Wang Yulou, am determined to pin the blame on you, Bifang.

I called a deer a horse, I wanted to frame someone, I fabricated a story, but it was all for the benefit of my fellow Daoists!

But I am utterly loyal!
Use the biggest black pot to drive Bifang's forces out of the Four Spirit Realms and smash Bifang's outstretched hand into the Four Spirit Realms.

Then, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable led the top Golden Core cultivators of the Basket Society to feast on the Four Spirit Realms.

You, Bifang, can't get a single bite—this is the core of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's statement, a core that has never been mentioned but truly exists.

Wang Yulou and Bifang stared at each other calmly; Wang Yulou could even see the chaotic light in Bifang's eyes.

Immortal King, if you are angry because I humiliated you, and instead of seeking supremacy, choose to join forces with the Wuji Dao Master to deal with me and create a mess, then I will accept it.

However.
Does Bifang want to be the only one to reign supreme?
miss you!
The kind of desire that makes you want to die!
The kind of thinking that lasts for tens of thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years!
Should Bifang join forces with the Boluo Society?
Yes!
We must join forces to ensure that our disadvantages are not so great!

Only by defeating the Wuji Dao Master and overturning this mountain can one pave the way to future supremacy.

So, how should Bifang deal with the mess that Donkey King has put on his head?

Bi Fang, the strongest cultivator in the Great Heaven and Earth, should just laugh it off, like Mu Fan, the strongest in the Four Spirit Realms!

Just laugh it off.

Yes, he was so humiliated and labeled by Wang Yulou, a mere thousand-year-old minor official.

Bi Fang possesses the strongest power, the highest status, and a position almost one of supreme authority, yet he can only laugh it off.

Give the opportunity to the top-tier Golden Core cultivators of the Bo Luo Sect, to Wang Yulou, so that he can maintain his supremacy and fight against his allies.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's ultimate move of feeding excrement was truly both extravagant and generous.

Bifang ate until his mouth and stomach were almost full, to the point that even with his 100,000-year-old Dao heart, he was starting to feel the strain.
"Yu Lou, you still don't trust me, but I won't hold it against you. As long as the Four Spirit Realms can win, it will be a good thing for us."

Bifang Immortal King spoke calmly, but its heaving chest seemed to be brewing endless thunderous fury.

Bifang, but with a rising and falling chest.

I am full.

Then, you have to express your approval to the opponent who fed you shit.

To make its stance clear, it had to add another sentence.

"Fellow Daoist Yuque's doubts are correct. We will share the Four Spirit Realms together. This is my sincerity."

What is the ultimate tortoise grandson?
Who is the strongest on the path to supremacy?
Is it Bifang?

No, it was the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable who unleashed the "Ultimate Great Tortoise Grandson Divine Power" of Bifang!

Wang Yulou knew what Bifang needed and was able to determine where Bifang's main contradiction lay.

He was able to adapt this to his own needs and predicaments, and forge a path out of his predicament.

The Jade Palace Immortal's performance at the Basket Gathering, calling a deer a horse, was truly unparalleled!
A prodigy who engages in internal strife, how can he not be a prodigy?

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable knows many things, and internal strife is just one of them.

He was the fastest Golden Elixir cultivator to attain enlightenment during the most stagnant and dangerous window of opportunity in the world.

How could his unparalleled brilliance be obscured by mere setbacks and minor humiliations?
So what if we fail?

Shift the cost!
A wild elephant can't carry it?
Let Bifang take the blame!
What will be used to cover the transfer costs?

Expected benefits from the Four Spirit Realms!
Why don't you eat alone and enjoy your meal by yourself?
The key is to get support from the wider world first, overcoming the current difficulties!

“This Fellow Daoist Bifang, it’s not that bad, it’s not that bad, Yulou is just being ignorant.”

Wang Yulou and Bifang went too far, and Luosha was unwilling to let her good pawns be shared by others.

Although he was able to accept Qingrui as an ally, seemingly unafraid of being cuckolded, his alliance with Qingrui was purely for the sake of profit.

However, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable can bring benefits to the Rakshasa in the Four Spirit Realms.

If Jade Palace Immortal Venerable becomes a shared pawn, then Lao Luo will get less—poor Lao Luo, he was the one who sent Jade Palace Immortal Venerable to the Four Spirit Realms.

"It's nothing, just a small matter, it's what I should do," Bi Fang replied, sounding slightly tired.

When the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable first started calling a deer a horse and making baseless accusations, no one at the Winnowing Basket Meeting spoke up for Bi Fang.

Bifang knew what this meant.

Regarding the matter of being driven away and everyone sharing the Four Spirit Realms, the group generally had a similar expectation.

Therefore, it's better to bring it up yourself. This will make you appear more open and honest, and you won't be surrounded and belittled by everyone.

The old men of the Ba Luo Society wouldn't believe Wang Yulou's nonsense about shifting blame, but that didn't stop them from using the story Wang Yulou fabricated to pressure Bi Fang.
“Fellow Daoist Rakshasa, you should accept Fellow Daoist Bifang’s kindness,” said the old man with the winnowing basket.

Rakshasa thought to himself that he might as well not accept this kindness, but in the end he didn't continue rambling.

Otherwise, he'd be the one getting shit fed to his butt.
Seeing that Rakshasa had no objections, the old man with the winnowing basket looked at Wang Yulou and continued to ask.

"However, there is still a problem now."

The magic pendant was difficult to deal with, and then it ran away and hid in the shadows again.

It would be troublesome if it attacked from time to time.

If a Golden Immortal is sent to the Four Spirit Realms to guard against it, they may be intercepted and killed by the Lord of Wuji.

Therefore, the current situation is indeed not easy.

"Yu Lou, you've spent quite some time in the Four Spirit Realms and are familiar with the situation there. Do you have any good strategies?"
