Chapter 347 The Great Account Settlement at the Basket Meeting: What is the True State of the Wuji Dao Master?
Everyone is a Golden Core cultivator, someone who has supposedly proven the Dao, but clearly, the difference between Golden Core cultivators is greater than that between dogs.

Understanding is constantly evolving. In Xiaoyulou's eyes, a mere danri is like two suns in the sky, and the Mangxiang Immortal Venerable has kept Wang Yuque's mind at ease for many years.

But once the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has climbed up step by step, looking back, he realizes that he's really nothing special.

They're just a bunch of unlucky losers who can't climb up.
Jade Palace Immortal Venerable first confronts Dao Lord and then suppresses Bifang. In the Five Domains and Eight Desolations, in the endless world, only Jade Palace is unparalleled!
So what if the situation in the Four Spirit Realms is on the verge of exploding?
Doesn't it still depend on me to keep maneuvering?

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable now understands that his worries about 'failure in future rounds' are nothing to worry about in the eyes of the top Golden Core cultivators at the Basket Gathering.

Come to think of it, Qingrui lost so badly before, but she's doing just fine now, isn't she?

As long as Jade Palace Immortal Venerable dares to put his life on the scales of confrontation and entice the old men of the Great Heaven and Earth to make Wuji Daozhu take action, the old men are willing to support Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

The fit and regression of so many dimensions, such as interests, the confrontation of change, the habit of dealing with predicaments, the irreplaceable individual status of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable in the Four Spirit Realms, and the opportunity of the water replenishment agenda to kidnap the Dao Ancestors of the Four Spirit Realms, can easily counteract the failure of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable in individual aspects—especially since that failure is a future, possible failure.

Ultimately, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is simply too unparalleled. The depth of his thinking and the dimensions of his perspective on development are on par with top-tier Golden Core cultivators, which is why he worries about things so far in the future.

However, the situation in the Four Spirit Realms is indeed quite difficult to maintain (but in the eyes of the Golden Immortals and above in the Great Heaven and Earth, this difficulty is actually an inevitable loss of control in the process of development).

Otherwise, the old man with the winnowing basket wouldn't have expected Wang Yulou to provide any solutions.

"Fellow Daoists, I have a question that I must ask clearly."

Wang Yulou first exchanged glances with the old man with the winnowing basket, then looked at Bifang, and finally turned his gaze to the water vessel, asking in a low voice.

"What exactly is the current state of the Boundless Dao Lord of the Outer Heavens?"

Bi Fang clenched his fist.

You might say Wang Yulou is a scoundrel, since he doesn't even act, but in reality, he's giving Bi Fang the ultimate endorsement.

Old Bi, I, Wang Yulou, acknowledge you as a top contender and won't hold my petty thoughts against you.

But Wang Yulou was truly a scoundrel.

Just now, they were using the excuse that "Bi Fang and Wuji Daozhu are the same person, so..." to pressure Bi Fang into voluntarily sharing the Four Spirit Realms with the other elders at the Winnowing Basket Meeting.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Yulou dropped all pretense and openly revealed that he knew from the beginning that the Wuji Dao Master and Bifang were not the same person.

What a scoundrel!
But Bi Fang ultimately held back.

Because it truly has spirit.

The cattle and horses around him have died many times, allies and opponents have changed constantly, and even a bunch of old acquaintances have been rearranged. The road has become more and more difficult to walk, but Bi Fang has still made it to where he is now.

Bifang truly possesses the ambition to strive for supremacy.

However, Wang Yulou's question is really difficult to answer.

“It’s hard to say what the Daoist Master Wuji is going to do. It’s very hard to say. Fellow Daoist Bifang, you’re the most familiar with him, so why don’t you go first?” the old man with the winnowing basket said with a smile.

Bi Fang and the Lord of Wuji were the most familiar with each other?

So, is there really a saying about Wuji (the ultimate void)?
"First of all, what can be confirmed is that the Wuji Dao Lord is definitely not a being of our great world."

It must have come from abroad. Ten thousand years ago, I had already advanced to the Golden Core realm, and at that time I began to collect all kinds of information.

The Lord of Wuji Dao appeared out of nowhere, much like Yulou, but Yulou is something we've witnessed firsthand.

The Dao Master of Wuji is different. In a thousand years, he quickly proved his Dao, entered the game, established his power, and maneuvered in all directions, becoming one of the top dozens of beings in the world.

Its rise can be understood as the rise of Yulou within the Four Spirit Realms; in short, they are quite similar.

Yulou proposed a "water replenishment" agenda, which was aimed at the characteristics of the Four Spirit Realms.

The Wuji Dao Master initially proposed an agenda called "Searching for the Outer Worlds".

As everyone knows, the 'Search for the Heaven Beyond Heaven' initiated by the Wuji Dao Master was basically limited to a small number of top-tier immortals and did not spread due to opposition from the masses—after all, the Great Heaven and Earth was not the Four Spirit Realms.

Later, it disappeared along with the Outer Heaven. Outsiders thought the Outer Heaven was finished, while we thought its lifespan had finally reached the point where it could not be extended any further.

Including the lifespan of the Wuji Dao Master when he passed away, Fellow Daoist Boluo, you also know that, judging from the spiritual energy that dissipated at that time, it was a little over 90,000 years, close to 100,000 years.

Therefore, its state is actually quite complex.

The Lord of Wuji Dao may have found a special way to prolong life, thus avoiding the problem that beings from other worlds cannot prolong their lives through tribulations in the Great World.

This method must be the cave-heaven technique it has passed down!

This is the confrontation between top-tier Golden Core cultivators; this is the confrontation that hinders the number one from reaching the pinnacle of power.

At other times, information is so expensive that it is almost priceless.

Besides bringing profound knowledge and accumulation, another great advantage of longevity is the mastery of past information.

This past information can be transformed into a real advantage at specific crucial moments, helping practitioners overcome the difficulties of confrontation.

Bi Fang, the number one being in the world for over 100,000 years, possesses top-tier information about the entire world, and his understanding of the endless realms is also the strongest.

However, Bi Fang would never easily reveal crucial information, nor would he casually form alliances with others; the case study is Qing Rui.
However, when faced with the Wuji Dao Lord who was about to become the sole ruler, even the most inhuman old beast in the entire world had to unite with his fellow Daoists to deal with it together.

What are the opportunities of our time?
This is the opportunity of our time!

Bi Fang revealed crucial information, which in itself may be more valuable than the twenty-three immortal materials that Mu Fan once gave to the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

However, the threshold for participating in this opportunity is also ridiculously high, even similar to the "search for the heaven beyond the heavens" agenda of the Wuji Dao Master back then, which is limited to only a very small number of top-level beings.

Fortunately, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable caught up.

Moreover, he worked his way up from the bottom step by step, struggling to keep up.

Considering the obstacles encountered in the climb and the disadvantage of insufficient accumulation, once Jade Palace Immortal Venerable catches up with the progress of this top-level Golden Core game that has no threshold setting but has actual thresholds, he will most likely remain in the game for a long time in the future.

At this moment, even the composed and steady Daoist heart of the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was filled with sighs and emotions.

Cultivation, becoming an immortal, attaining enlightenment, and reaching the summit are four different concepts.

Now, he has seen the light at the end of the tunnel.

The first time Jade Palace Immortal Venerable ascended the Boluo Conference's Dao Discussion Platform, he was brought along by his elder sister Qingrui to broaden his horizons.

Now, on his second ascent to the Boluo Assembly Platform, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has already seen part of the rosy glow atop the peaks of the immortals.

I'll go up, right?

Yes, it will! It definitely will!
However, no one cared about the Jade Palace Immortal's small aspirations, and the Knowing-the-Point Dragon God asked.

"Bifang, do you mean that the Wuji Dao Master is hiding in his own cave heaven right now?"

Since it's hiding, why don't we send someone to look for it? That shouldn't be difficult, right?

Shui Zun and the others nodded in deep agreement.

Facts and truth have different dimensions.

Those low-level cultivators are unaware of the mysteries of the Purple Mansion Method, the Cave Heaven Method, and many other ancient methods. They live in a world of lies, being raised by different packs of wolves in sheep's clothing.

Mid-level cultivators can understand the underlying nature of order and rules, but the order and rules at this level are also a kind of falsehood with a higher dimension and a higher degree of reality.

For example, the grotto-heaven techniques they came into contact with were extremely powerful and were the most worthy of cultivation. How pitiful and pathetic.

Going further and further up, to the level of the top Golden Core cultivators of the Winnowing Basket Society, there's nothing left to hide about the truth of the Cave Heaven Technique.

A top-tier Golden Core cultivator cannot become a grape; even with a true transformation using a grotto-heaven technique, complete transformation is not guaranteed—Qingrui and Luosha's grotto-heavens might not even equal their full strength.
Even the methods to counter the Cave Heaven Technique have been almost entirely researched and developed by the top Golden Core cultivators at the Winnowing Basket Gathering over the years—each with their own exclusive version.
This can be understood as follows: those at the bottom, like cattle and horses, cannot see the truth of the world; while those at the middle level, like foremen, begin to come into contact with capital, thinking they are using it but in reality, they are being indiscriminately controlled by it—playing within someone else's order. That's how it is.

Even if countless people win, at least 90% will lose. For an individual, this 'nine to one' expectation is also a loss without distinction.

Only the most outstanding and powerful individuals, the dragons among men, who have discerned and shaped the rules and order, then make peace with capital, master, control, and develop themselves, and even plan to devour capital at any moment.

This is the difference in the levels and dimensions of truth.

What is true and what is false becomes impossible to discern once you reach a higher level.

(Cultivation is not a game of capital. The examples here are only to better highlight the reality of this 'different levels of truth', not to say that the Cave Heaven Technique is capital. This book is a genuine Xianxia book. So-called GC and commercialism are not even a part of it.)

According to Bi Fang, if the Wuji Dao Master is merely hiding in a cave, then finding that cave is sufficient.

More than twenty top-tier Golden Core cultivators, who possess countless Great Daos in the world, form an alliance of the highest strength in the endless realms.

Their creative power allows them to achieve whatever they desire in almost limitless ways.

No matter how hard it is to find, just keep looking!

"I discussed this issue with Fellow Daoist Boluo before. Fellow Daoists, let's be frank and not beat around the bush."

Before discussing how to find the Lord of the Boundless Dao, should we compare the amount of Boundless Relics each person obtained when the Boundless Palace in the Outer Heavens collapsed and the Lord of the Boundless Dao perished?

Bi Fang calmly began to steer the conversation to a dimension that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable had never considered.

"Your Majesty, is there any drawback to the quantity of the Boundless Relics we obtained?" Jade Palace Immortal Venerable asked in surprise.

All are not fools.

From gathering information about the Wuji Dao Lord and seeking opportunities even before the confrontation began, to Bifang raising the question of 'the quantity of the Wuji Dao Lord's relics,' these are all crucial processes for the Immortal Venerables on their path to becoming the sole ruler.

The fact that the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable took the initiative to ask this question is actually a very, very interesting thing.

For the wisest person, if you ask this question, it means that 'you who ask the question are not enlightened,' that you are foolish and incapable of omniscience.

Of course, from a moral perspective, this kind of evaluation and confrontational thinking is almost harsh.

But that's the truth—if you ask, they say they don't know; if you ask, they say they don't understand; if you ask, they say they're stupid.

As for the idea of ​​"diligent thinking and hard work, and humbly seeking advice," it's laughable kindergarten thinking.

Fellow Daoist, you've already attended the Bamboo Grove Gathering, and you still humbly seek instruction?
If you ask once, everyone will label you as the 'number one cost'; if you ask twice, others will start figuring out how to make you the cost immediately.

However, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is different.

He is different.

His question actually corresponds to the kind of cultivation that Cangshan endured for thousands of years in the Immortal Alliance.

I respect the will of the Water Venerable and I acknowledge the interests of Fellow Daoist Qingrui, but there are some things I can participate in—maintaining a sense of presence and participation without harming myself.

Anyway, I, Wang Yulou, am just a nobody, I'm an idiot, I'm stupid, I can't grasp the highest, most thorough, and most crucial Dao—you all know I'm a nobody.

However, I maintained a sense of participation by getting freebies on the fringes.

Is this entering the game?
It's hard to say, really hard to say.

It is a less decisive process, similar to an extremely difficult-to-use bargaining chip, neither a lifeline nor an added bonus.

But this is just a small aspect of Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's cultivation. Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is undoubtedly walking on the greatest path.

Accumulate little by little, and capture tiny possibilities bit by bit.

It seems like a very low ecological niche, and the question seems quite stupid.

But at its core is the principle of 'doing good deeds,' which is the most cautious detail of a climber heading towards supremacy and confrontation.

"It's hard to say, but I have a guess."

More than 50,000 years ago, it was said that the fellow Daoist Bolu obtained the relics of the King of No Destiny.

Later, we gradually learned that Fellow Daoist Boluo received a portion, while the rest was divided among others.

More than 30,000 years ago, when the Outer Heaven collapsed, the treasures left by the Wuji Dao Master were similar, and no one knows how much others obtained.

My guess is that, in reality, none of us received much. The Wuji Dao Master sacrificed a small portion of himself to fool us.

But we were wary of each other and kept things secret, and in the end, we were fooled by the Daoist Master of Wuji.

At the meeting, there was silence.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable knew that Bifang's guess was very likely correct.
Those who were able to participate in the collapse of the Outer Heaven and the taking of the Wuji Dao Master's relics were all extremely powerful, at least at the Golden Immortal level, even back then.

Cultivators at the Golden Immortal level have already reached the pinnacle of the cultivation system, and have broken through the farthest boundaries of the real dimension in terms of self-construction and self-realization. Their core and behavior patterns are almost absolutely rational.

In a world of near-absolute rationality, the confrontations between people often appear exceptionally brutal, and the awareness of protecting one's own information becomes almost instinctive.

Therefore, those who obtained a large amount of the Wuji Dao Master's legacy would not tell others.

Those who obtained only a small portion of the Wuji Dao Master's legacy were unwilling to let others know that they hadn't acquired much.

Or it would be, "Oh? So you unlucky coward and weakling didn't get much of the Dao Lord's legacy? Very well, I'll mark you as a relative waste and weakling for now, and kill you later when the opportunity arises!"

To put it more vividly, it can be understood as the collapse of the Wuji Dao Lord, creating a sky full of water droplets, each drop of which represents some remnant treasure, and everyone frantically uses various methods to seize it.

Finally, Bi Fang guessed that the splash at the beginning was just big, but there was actually not much water. Everyone was scrambling for nothing, thinking that others got more and they got less, but in fact there wasn't much to begin with!
“What Bi Fang said is interesting. To be honest, I didn’t get much back then, just a little bit.”

In the silence, the organizer of the basket gathering, the old man with the basket, took the initiative to take the lead.

The most proactive in resisting the Outer Heavens was Bifang, so proactive that he was able to endure the disgust and cede the Four Spirit Realms to the Winnowing Basket Society.

The second most active one is the Old Man with the Basket. After all, he is one of the people who pose the greatest threat to the Lord of Limitless Dao. No matter what he does, the Lord of Limitless Dao will not let him go.

"I'll do it a little bit too," sighed the Immortal Ancestor of the Wutian Sect.

"A little bit"

"I"

On the Terrace of Immortals, everyone spoke a little.

You're asking how much this little bit is?
Hard to say.

Even now, none of them have revealed their true feelings.

"This way of reconciling accounts won't work; there need to be specific values, otherwise..." Cangshan reminded him.

It thought it was engaging in 'risk-free participation'.

However.
"We can't talk about specific values. There's another possibility: the Wuji Dao Lord isn't actually in a good state, which is why it's in such a hurry to disrupt the world."

Most of the fellow Daoists present want to rebel against the Dao Lord of Wuji, but perhaps some of them already have allies of the Dao Lord of Wuji.

Therefore, if the specific value is something that the Wuji Dao Master is eyeing and uses to replenish his status, then that would become a major problem.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable also participated in the 'risk-free participation value' event.

Cangshan shut its mouth. Everyone was from the Immortal Alliance, and Xiao Wang had a good father and mother backing him up; it couldn't bite him.

“Wang Yulou, what you’re saying is interesting. If you’re worried that the Wuji Dao Lord’s allies can sit on the Boluo Gathering, then why are you talking about seizing the Four Spirit Realms? Didn’t the Wuji Dao Lord already know what we just discussed?”

Cangshan doesn't spew, but Dedingwang does. Old Cangshan's true ally is Dedingwang, not the other three top-tier Golden Core cultivators within the Immortal Alliance.

"Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken. Daoist Wuji knows that His Majesty Bifang's feather exists in the Four Spirit Realms, so he will naturally be cautious."

As for discussing these matters, my very first question was about the state of the Wuji Dao Master, and why I wasn't on guard.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable immediately refuted this.

The opinions of opponents are not important. The opinions of top-level immortals are not even as influential as the thoughts of a Purple Mansion True Person under the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable.

"You just said that Fellow Daoist Bifang and Daoist Wuji are the same person."

"Alright, alright, stop arguing, stop arguing. Bifang, let's just assume that none of us got much of the Wuji Dao Lord's legacy. Let's just calculate it like this."

The old man with the winnowing basket stopped the bickering between Jade Palace Immortal and King Deding, subtly and overtly trying to persuade them while steer the conversation back on track. The Winnowing Basket Gathering is like this: if the old man with the winnowing basket doesn't intervene in time, the participants often argue until the Great Dao is obliterated—none of them will admit they're wrong.

In fact, no one is wrong. Right and wrong are determined by one's position. Those who can attend the Boluo Society, which one of them doesn't have a firm stance on their own position?
"If the Lord of Wuji Dao only sacrificed a small part of himself back then."

Therefore, his current grotto must be larger than all of ours combined.

It might already be comparable to some medium-sized worlds.

Even if we find such a hidden paradise, how should we deal with it?

Bi Fang seemed somewhat hesitant to enter the cave heaven of the Wuji Dao Master, but the Immortal Ancestor was clearly not so afraid.

"How to deal with it? Just charge in."

My idea is simple: with so many of us working together, we'll eventually figure out the method to destroy the cave heaven.

Every era has its own most powerful methods, and each one is different.

But one thing is the same: thousands of years after the strongest method appears, a corresponding countermeasure will gradually appear.

Often, once this countermeasure becomes widely known, the old, most powerful method will be rendered obsolete.

The problem with the Great Heaven and Earth is that the last stable era has passed for thousands of years. Back then, the Cave Heaven Techniques had not yet spread widely, and the corresponding countermeasures were underdeveloped.

The life-extending advantage brought by the Cave Heaven Method is too great, and everyone wants this method to flourish for a longer period of time, thereby eliminating later practitioners.

However, if we accelerate and intensify our efforts, then the Cave Heaven Method can transcend the cycles of the strongest methods throughout history and reach a higher level in the development of methods to counter them.

By then, the Lord of Wuji Dao will not be so terrifying.

I refuse to believe it can instantly switch methods without losing its own strength!

The Immortal Ancestor had many opinions, three of which concerned the current situation.

First, while the Cave Heaven Technique is terrifying, it's certain that a countermeasure can be developed—in fact, everyone has one; even top-tier Golden Core cultivators possess it.

Second, we need to transcend the cycle of 'top-level methods - top-level methods countermeasures - top-level methods elimination' and develop stronger countermeasures.

Third, no matter how strong the Wuji Dao Lord is, his strength still has to follow the basic laws.

What are the fundamental principles?
When you reach the pinnacle of cultivation, it's impossible to have both high efficiency in development and high intensity in bursting power!
Cultivating immortality is not about governing a country. The distinction between Golden Immortals and Celestial Immortals represents the breakthrough of the limits of cultivation, and breaking through the limits of cultivation requires reconstructing one's own existence.

Reconstruction is analogous to rebirth, but it is not about being reborn from the past. Rather, it is about becoming a new self in a better state, which can be simply understood as 'becoming an immortal'.

In this process of reconstruction, the later adopters pursued speeds that surpassed the average—the Immortal Ancestor pointed out the reason for the prosperity of the Cave Heaven Method: that is, it could eliminate later adopters indiscriminately and turn resource advantages into strength advantages.

But for Old Deng, who already has an advantage in strength and accumulated advantages, the purpose of the reconstruction process is to 'make his cultivation keep up with the version changes'.

As times progress, the cultivation world has not experienced any industrial GM, but it has undergone countless iterations of cultivation methods.

Just as Xiaoyu guessed, and just as Jade Palace Immortal Venerable observed, no matter how strong Lao Deng is, he still has to keep up with the times little by little.

In this process, their pursuit of efficiency was even more extreme than that of later entrants; they were afraid of being slow.

The eternal geniuses vied for the Dao Fruit, yet only a little over twenty people participated in the Bamboo Basket Gathering.

What about the rest?

Ultimately, it all boils down to one logic—they were driven to their deaths by running!
Can the Wuji Dao Master escape this confrontational tone?

There's no way to escape.

If the Wuji Dao Master's state is to maintain the ultimate burst of his own strength, then his efficiency will be poor and his adaptability to version updates will be poor.

By gradually updating the version and suppressing the version of Wuji Daozhu, the strategy in this situation is to stall and win.

If the Wuji Dao Lord's state is to maintain the ultimate efficiency of its cultivation, then its strength is not that great.

The process of restructuring from an efficiency-oriented approach to a strength-oriented approach is enough to give the Wuji Dao Master a headache.

The Immortal Ancestor's views are actually quite interesting.

Because Bifang and the old man with the winnowing basket were still seeking the truth, their thinking became confined in the specific implementation.

The Immortal Ancestor transcended specific contradictions and went straight to the underlying logic of confrontation.

This is not hard to understand, and it doesn't mean that Lao Bi and Lao Bo are no longer capable.

Bifang and Boluo are truly resilient, so they need to know the specific situation and crave concrete answers, while the Immortal Ancestor bears less pressure and is naturally not in a hurry.

However, for the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, the Immortal Ancestor's judgment was utterly meaningless.

The old master simply chose "or" in the "yes or no" question, and said that "or" would definitely exist in this question.

He is right, but it does nothing to help Jade Palace Immortal Venerable in his fight against the Limitless Dao Lord in the Four Spirit Realms.

From this perspective, the Immortal Ancestor is also suspected of 'getting free participation points'.

In fact, after all this talk, apart from what Bi Fang revealed at the beginning and his understanding of different top-level Golden Core approaches, it means that no definitive conclusion has been reached on the question of 'what exactly is the state of the Wuji Dao Master'.

But actually, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable wasn't too disappointed.

It's normal to have a strong opponent.

He had reached the pinnacle of the cultivation world in the endless world, standing on the highest and most prestigious stage.

We can't expect to encounter an opponent like Lien Sung-hyun at this time, or someone who is just lucky, right?

That's unrealistic.

An opponent like the Wuji Dao Master, who is deeply hidden, whose cultivation is secretive, whose strength is unpredictable, and whose condition is difficult to determine, is the truly ordinary.

If, in the future, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable and other top-tier Golden Core cultivators at the Basket Gathering enter into a confrontation, they will actually face the same situation as before.

"Let's get back to the specifics of the Jade Pavilion. The matter of the Boundless Dao Master is hard to explain; we'll have to wait."

A true hunter needs to strike at the right moment, and you might be able to create that moment for us.

So, what kind of support do you need?

The old man with the winnowing basket realized that the state of the Wuji Dao Master was impossible to determine, so he put the topic aside for the time being.

But what kind of support does the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable need? That's a difficult question to answer.

The message secretly relayed by the Water Venerable was that several elders of the Immortal Alliance planned to drag the Heavenly Dragon Hall along to devour the Four Spirit Realms.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable promised the other top-tier Golden Core cultivators of the Bamboo Basket Association that they would kick Bifang aside and share the spoils together.

With the support and tacit approval of everyone, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable suppressed the number one person in the Great World. Now Jade Palace Immortal Venerable needs to repay everyone.

It's clearly a conflict to divide everything together with the Immortal Alliance and the Heavenly Dragon Hall. Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's base is the Immortal Alliance, and his quasi-ally is Zhizhi Dragon God, so naturally he has to take care of his base and the Heavenly Dragon Hall.

Therefore, it is difficult to weigh the pros and cons.

However, it is common for one cake to be sold to multiple companies, and Jade Palace Immortal Venerable would certainly not be trapped by the current situation.

"My idea is that we need to stabilize the overall situation in the Four Spirit Realms before we can talk about the future."

In the endless void, if any of you fellow Daoists have subordinates in the worlds surrounding the Four Spirit Realms, please send them here as appropriate.

The Four Spirit Realms are large enough to accommodate even thirty to fifty Golden Core cultivators.

At that time, we should thoroughly muddy the waters of the Four Spirit Realms and ideally create a new power.

I pulled in the Water Replenishment Conference and cooperated with this new force to gradually take control of the overall situation in the Four Spirit Realms.

Then, after replenishing my hydration, I ascended to the Golden Immortal realm, and together with my numerous allies, drained the Four Spirit Realms, forcing out that subordinate of the Limitless Dao Lord!

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's strategy is still to prioritize winning.

How to divide it is a question for the future.

By operating in a manner that replicates the model of how many forces in the Great Heaven and Earth control the world, they gradually gain control of the Four Spirit Realms and monitor all changes.

At that time, Huanpei will naturally not be able to cause any waves.

“Too slow,” said one of the dragon gods at the Bamboo Stalk Gathering.

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable wants to operate the business step by step, aiming to secure victory before dividing the spoils.

Unfortunately, no one is stupid.

Everyone has witnessed the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's loyalty to the Great Heaven and Earth and to the Winnowing Basket Society.

You've already essentially gone through it all alone. If you were given time to develop further, and you truly became a sage, you might just turn against us again.
Jade Palace Immortal Venerable has reached the threshold of Golden Immortal, but the problems he faces are becoming increasingly difficult to solve.

Ultimately, it's because he's too successful. His cultivation level is high, his scale is large, and the 'attention' from allies and adversaries to him is completely different from before.

Why did Jade Palace Immortal Venerable need to confirm the state of the Boundless Dao Lord first? Because he was genuinely afraid of being strangled to death by the Boundless Dao Lord, or even being strangled to death by Huanpei through a life-for-life exchange of injury.

Maneuvering left and right is a good method, but Jade Palace Immortal Venerable can no longer find a usable, easy, cost-free, and simple point of leverage. Those points of leverage still exist, of course, but they cannot support Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's size and ambition.

"Slow is fast. If you only pursue speed, the only result will be that your opponent will take advantage of your weaknesses."

"I was too hasty in my fight against the Immortal Pendant this time. If I hadn't been so hasty, and had waited a few more years, I might have been able to achieve great things in one fell swoop," Jade Palace Immortal Venerable offered as an excuse.

It was Rakshasa who spoke up, relieving the awkward situation for Jade Palace Immortal Venerable of being unable to propose a solution that satisfied everyone.

"Alright, Yulou is in a difficult position too."

Yu Lou, your Daoist partner, Di Shui, is doing quite well in the Immortal Alliance.

Do you think we should send her to help you?

Jade Palace Immortal Venerable fell silent, unsure whether Rakshasa was testing him.

Or does Lao Luo want the Immortal Alliance to take even more?

He and the water droplet, both masters of water magic, would replenish the water in the Four Spirit Realms, essentially settling everything down.
Is this a test to see if I have ulterior motives, or if I genuinely support them?
-
On the Dao discussion platform of the Ba Luo Society, Jade Palace Immortal Venerable and a group of top Golden Core cultivators were debating the final solution.

It was still that familiar, mysterious space, but Xianpei moved very, very slowly.

A black aura enveloped its body, making it almost unable to breathe.

The strength is simply not enough.

Its owner paved the way with golden light, gradually pulling it to his side.

"Master, Xiao Huan is incompetent."

The Wuji Dao Master, whose body was being transmitted through chains, offered words of comfort.

'You're fine. It's my fault for letting you leave so easily; otherwise, we wouldn't be in such a passive position now.'

Not enough half-step Golden Immortals have been killed in the Four Spirit Realms. Theoretically, Huanpei can continue killing from the shadows, but if too many are killed, the remaining ones will unite around Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, Mu Fan, and others.

The top Golden Core cultivators of the Great Heaven and Earth dared not act rashly, but they could still send their subordinates to support Wang Yulou.

Therefore, for the Outer Heavens, their four realms of spirits are actually in a somewhat awkward situation.

For the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable, winning and avoiding defeat are both difficult.

For the Celestial Realm beyond the Heavens, facing an opponent like the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable is equally difficult.

"Did something suddenly happen?" Huanpei asked.

When the Daoist Master Wuji reminded it to leave immediately, it thought something terrible had happened.

I was jolted awake; the little blue dragon was moving around wildly, and I thought they were about to attack.

The Lord of Wuji Dao was actually somewhat helpless.

In the struggle for supremacy, everyone's nerves are on edge.

'So what do we do now? Bai Shou has been imprisoned in the Pure Water Dao Court, and the Murong Dao Court has encroached on Bai Shou's territory.'

The Four Spirit Realms have deteriorated to this extent, and Xiao Huan is truly to blame. Master, why don't you punish me? It would make me feel better.

The most brutal confrontation is somewhat extreme for a tree grown in a greenhouse.

Huanpei's failure was simply a result of the relative loss of control under high-intensity confrontation, and there is no excuse for it.

Especially regarding the falling out with Bai Shou, even if Jade Palace Immortal Venerable were to return to the age of one hundred, he would not do such a foolish thing.

Respect and understanding are essential for dealing with fools; this is a key aspect of spiritual practice.

Only by doing this can you break through from the bottom. It's not that everyone at the bottom is stupid, but you'll always encounter countless idiots on the way up. There are just too many of them.

Huanpei's origins were too high; it started at its peak, so much so that it never had to go through this stage of cultivation.
'Haha, the situation in the Four Spirit Realms is not dangerous.'

Let's go back and rebuild Wuji Palace. This time, we'll use a new model.

With my guidance and your sufficiently high level of cultivation, you can slowly fight back and eventually see the light at the end of the tunnel.

In the worst-case scenario, I can also support Wang Yulou going his own way and turning against the top Golden Elixir Masters at the Boluo Conference and Bifang.

In the end, it's simply a matter of him taking more and us taking less.

If the Wuji Dao Master were to hear this, the top Golden Core cultivators at the Boluo Gathering would probably turn pale.

The words of the Wuji Dao Master are quite terrifying, extremely terrifying.

It's like two armies fighting, with the enemy's intelligence agents directly planted in the other side's general staff.
"Master, is Wang Yulou walking alone?
How can this be?

It's not particularly faithful.

Clearly, Huanpei wasn't quite able to keep up with the Wuji Dao Master's train of thought.

Although she was fighting Jade Palace Immortal Venerable in the Four Spirit Realms, she couldn't fully grasp the predicament Jade Palace Immortal Venerable was facing.

In reality, the Jade Palace Immortal Venerable went alone, and he lost.
Of course, in the eyes of Huanpei and Wuji Daozhu, they had also lost.

After all, they are all players participating in the battle for supremacy, and everyone has very high expectations for the future and high demands on themselves.

'Little Huan, you are loyal, and you seem to be loyal to everyone else too.'

But Wang Yulou is different from you. Not only did he dare to travel alone, he also dared to make Bifang pay the price for him.

The main actors of Wuji Dao didn't even act out the scenes; they directly pointed out Wang Yulou's unparalleled talent in making Bi Fang bear the consequences.

Even the Lord of Wuji Dao wasn't so confident that he could accomplish this easily.

The Jade Palace Immortal Venerable's act of "participating for free on the fringes" actually hits the nail on the head, which makes Wang Yulou seem even more extraordinary.

The Master of Wuji Dao truly has an inside contact within the Winnowing Basket Society!
That's why he revealed his idea of ​​"sharing the Four Spirit Realms with Wang Yulou" when communicating privately with his core subordinates like Huanpei.

Little Wang, you used to win, win, win, and then lose.

Wang Yulou will remember the lesson of turning a winning streak into a losing one for the rest of his life!

Why does winning sometimes lead to losing?

Because his own body, like iron, is not hard enough.

Now that his cultivation and key abilities have improved, the situation is completely different, and it seems that there is a possibility that it will develop to another extreme.

What possibilities?
Lose, lose, lose until you win!
