Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

Chapter 112 A Beauty's Heart, Clouds Emerge from the Mountain

"If the phoenix sings on Mount Qi, and the Western Zhou Dynasty prospers, then the two of you can proceed as you see fit regarding the eastward transmission of Buddhism!"

Yuanshi Tianzun gritted his teeth and finally uttered the words that the two sages of the Western Sect had been waiting for.

The meaning is very clear: the fate of the Western Zhou Dynasty was intertwined with that of the Chan sect. The great prosperity of the Western Zhou Dynasty meant that the Chan sect had achieved its final victory. Only when this condition was met would the Chan sect open the door to the eastward transmission of Buddhism!

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian is relying on his supernatural powers to act against the will of Heaven and disregard the will of Heaven. We are sages and cannot sit idly by. My senior brother and I will send disciples to Xiqi to assist in the battle."

Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other and smiled. Zhunti calmed down before slowly speaking.

"In that case, I shall take my leave!"

Having achieved his wish, but at a great cost, Yuanshi Tianzun was displeased and unwilling to watch Jieyin and Zhunti's smug expressions. He uttered a few words, and his figure slowly dissipated, returning to the "Jade Void Palace".

At this time, Li Yunjing had already returned to the Yin Shang camp.

"Junior Brother Chaos, what did our Senior Uncle say?"

Immediately, the Holy Mother Jinling asked a question, and the other disciples of the Jie Sect also looked at Li Yunjing, wanting to know the Holy Mother's attitude.

"Everything's alright now, everyone can rest assured!"

Looking around and seeing the tense expressions of his fellow disciples, Li Yunjing smiled and said, "This time, I will personally come down from the mountain. That Lu Ya dared to use evil arts to harm my Jie Sect disciples, and I will settle the karmic debt with him against Junior Brother Gongming."

"With Fifth Senior Brother taking action, that brat Lu Ya will naturally not escape his clutches!"

Seeing that Chaos Daojun was about to make a move to avenge Zhao Gongming, the others beamed with joy. They had fought several large-scale battles with the Chan Sect, and both sides had suffered losses. Even the Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Jie Sect were somewhat terrified, fearing that they would be listed on the Investiture of the Gods.

Now that he has powerful backing, who in the entire Chan Sect can stand up to Brother Chaos?

"Wen Zhong, arrange for someone to inform the Xiqi side that the two sides will fight again tomorrow."

"Yes! This disciple will obey my master's orders!"

Wen Zhong was overjoyed, finally able to completely defeat the immortals of the Chan Sect.

As the Grand Tutor of three dynasties and a pillar of the Shang Dynasty, Wen Zhong's feelings for the Shang Dynasty were absolutely the strongest, even stronger than those for the Jie Sect. This was the core of his life's work, and when he saw the emergence of rebels like Xiqi, he was more anxious than anyone else.

Now that Fifth Uncle Chaos Daoist has made his move, as long as he defeats the immortals of the Chan Sect, this matter will end here.

"Alas! Fellow disciples, you are still too optimistic. As a Quasi-Saint, I have disrupted the balance of Xiqi, and naturally a Saint will come to suppress me. However, the Chan Sect and the Western Sect have gone too far. Before suppressing them, I must vent my anger thoroughly. Those who deserve to be listed will be listed, and those who deserve to be beaten to a pulp will be beaten to a pulp!"

Li Yunjing listened to the compliments from his fellow disciples with a smile. No one knew that he had already hardened his heart and was preparing to unleash a massacre!

"Oh dear! What brings them here?"

Suddenly, Li Yunjing frowned, looking into the distant void. Looking at the familiar figure, he revealed a trace of helplessness. He had prepared everything to prevent them from entering the calamity, but they still came.

"Huh? Who's here?"

Seeing Chaos Daojun lost in thought, Golden Spirit Mother asked a question. Then, she scanned the horizon with her divine sense and saw Yunxiao riding a blue phoenix, Qiongxiao riding a swan, and Bixiao riding a flower-feathered bird, accompanied by Hanzhi Fairy and Caiyun Fairy.

Five fairies, some riding mounts and others riding auspicious clouds, flew towards them.

"Let's go! Let's go greet Yunxiao and the others."

Despite feeling helpless, Li Yunjing couldn't show it, otherwise it would be very unfair to his fellow disciples in the other sects. He forced a smile and took the lead in walking out of the main tent and arriving at the reed hut to wait for the arrival of the five fairies from the Jie Sect.

"Junior Sister Yunxiao is here! This time we're in luck!"

The others didn't understand Li Yunjing's thoughts; they were all still overjoyed at the arrival of the Three Immortals, Hanzhi Fairy, and Caiyun Fairy.

It is said that Zhao Gongming had previously fled to "Three Immortal Islands", which immediately shocked the three Yunxiao sisters. They never expected that their brother would end up like this. A Great Luo Golden Immortal almost perished, and even now he has not yet recovered his strength and is in a state of decline.

They invited Zhao Gongming into the palace.

"My three sisters, I almost died this time. Now I need to take refuge here for a while to recover my cultivation."

Upon entering the "Sanxiao Palace", Zhao Gongming explained his purpose.

"Brother, what happened to you? Who hurt you?"

Qiongxiao immediately asked, her eyes burning with rage. Whoever hurt her elder brother must pay the price!

"Yes! Who is it?!"

Bixiao and Yunxiao also asked anxiously.

"Sigh! Here's what happened."

Zhao Gongming sighed and recounted everything that had happened since he was invited down the mountain by the Golden Spirit Mother and arrived in Xiqi. He also mentioned that his fifth senior brother had personally intervened for him and was preparing for a decisive battle with the Chan Sect.

Hearing what had happened and learning that their eldest brother was unharmed, the three women breathed a sigh of relief. However, thinking that their senior brother Chaos had been caught up in the great calamity again, Yunxiao frowned and muttered to herself, "Senior Brother Chaos was originally a quasi-saint, and this Investiture of the Gods calamity had nothing to do with him. Now that he's involved, what will happen if something happens to him!"

Yunxiao felt some fear about the Investiture of the Gods.

After seeing the couplet at the entrance of "Biyou Palace" and recalling the tragic scene of the last great calamity and the war between the witch and demon races, she couldn't help but feel terrified.

After his last trip to Beihai, he has been strictly guarding the mountain gate as instructed by the Tongtian Sect Leader and has not left the mountain.

But she never expected so many things to happen recently. Many of her fellow disciples died tragically, and her own brother almost made it onto the Investiture of the Gods list, which terrified her. But when she thought of Chaos Daojun going to Xiqi, she couldn't help but worry about her senior brother.

Bixiao, however, looked disdainful and said dismissively, "Eldest sister is indeed cowardly. With Fifth Senior Brother's cultivation, what is there to fear? At this moment, the only people in this world who can defeat Fifth Senior Brother are some old fogies. Where are there any experts like him in the Chan Sect and the Western Sect?"

"Third Sister, you also experienced the last great calamity, so you should know. Great calamities are extremely dangerous, and it's not certain what powerful figures will appear. You also witnessed the last trip to the North Sea, where the Western Sect's saint disregarded his saintly dignity and bullied the weak."

Although Yunxiao agreed with Bixiao's statement, she was still very worried.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao recalled their last trip to the North Sea, where the Sage Zhunti shamelessly attacked them, and they felt a chill in their hearts. They nodded in agreement.

"Big sister, Fifth Senior Brother has boundless magical power, there won't be any problems. The best we can do for him is to stay in the cave obediently."

Having survived a near-death experience, even the once unruly and powerful Great Luo Golden Immortal Zhao Gongming was somewhat terrified and no longer wanted to easily get involved in another tribulation.

"Qiongxiao, Bixiao, you stay home to take care of our elder brother. I'm going to Xiqi, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

After thinking for a while, Yunxiao couldn't help but speak out his inner thoughts.

"this"

Zhao Gongming didn't know how to persuade her. His eldest sister said that it was the right thing to do to help her fifth senior brother, who had saved her life. However, the calamity was dangerous, and he, as her brother, couldn't bear to see his sister in danger.

"It's settled then! Don't worry, I have my own methods, I'm no weaker than a Golden Immortal from the Chan Sect, and besides, we have Senior Brother Chaos with us!"

Having expressed his innermost thoughts, Yunxiao seemed much more relaxed, and his fear of the great calamity lessened.

"Big sister, if you go, of course we'll go with you."

Bixiao said with a smile, "How could the two of them not know their eldest sister's feelings?"

"Yes! Let's go together! The three of us sisters all have top-tier spiritual treasures protecting us, so going together will provide mutual support!"

Qiongxiao quickly added.

"Yes! Since my eldest sister is going out of the mountains, she should take my second and third sisters with her. That way, I can rest assured!"

Zhao Gongming nodded. He had sensed his sister's feelings and was very happy about it. Since he couldn't stop his eldest sister from leaving the mountain, it would be safer for the other sisters to go out with their innate spiritual treasures.

In the end, the three immortals rode their respective mounts and flew away from the Three Immortal Islands. Zhao Gongming shook his head, closed the mountain gate, and immediately went into seclusion to cultivate, hoping to recover his cultivation as soon as possible so that he could help his senior brother Chaos and his three sisters at the critical moment.

On the way, the Three Immortals encountered Fairy Hanzhi and Fairy Caiyun. Upon hearing about the matter in Xiqi and knowing that their senior brother Chaos was in trouble, the two fairy maidens from the Jie Sect joined in without hesitation.

That's how the five fairies came to visit the Yin Shang camp in Xiqi.

Yunxiao and his group of five entered the reed hut and saw Chaos Daojun. Their eyes lit up and they all came to his side to greet him.

"Yunxiao, I'll handle things here. Why are you all here?"

Li Yunjing looked at Yunxiao and the others and couldn't help but scold them.

"My two sisters and I have come here with Fairy Hanzhi and Fairy Caiyun. First, to avenge our eldest brother's assassination attempt; second, having heard that our senior brother is here, we naturally came to support him."

Yunxiao said calmly, since she had already entered the tribulation, it was too late for her senior brother Chaos to chase her away.

"Brother Chaos! As soon as my eldest sister heard you came to Xiqi, she brought us here to help!"

Bixiao teased with a grin.

"Exactly! You have no idea how worried my older sister was!"

Qiongxiao also teased.

"You two!"

Li Yunjing couldn't help but shake his head and nod to Yunxiao. Since becoming disciples of the Three Immortals of Kunlun Mountain, he had lived in his own Chaos Palace, and the relationship between the two had always been close.

Whether it was "Jin'ao Island", "Sanxian Island", or "Wuyi Mountain", the two sides maintained close ties, and Sanxiao, Zhao Gongming, Yuyi Xian and others were his most trusted followers.

Chaos Daojun is the number one expert among the second generation of the three religions. He is usually very warm to his fellow disciples. In the entire Jie Sect, who did not receive Li Yunjing's "Enlightenment Spirit Tea" from "Wuyi Mountain"?

Those who were close to each other had even tasted the "Five Elements Spiritual Fruit," using this innate spiritual root to complete their own five elements and lay a solid foundation.

Li Yunjing was highly skilled and had a warm and generous personality. Over time, Yunxiao developed a great admiration for his fifth senior brother, but never showed it. The two had a mutual understanding, but they never discussed matters of love between men and women.

However, when the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods arrived, Senior Brother Chaos actually took the initiative to enter the calamity. This made Yunxiao very worried, which led to Yunxiao suppressing his fear and personally coming out of the mountain.

"Hahaha! Let's all go now! Fifth Junior Brother and Junior Sister Yunxiao still have things to discuss!"

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit laughed heartily, and the entire reed hut was filled with laughter. The immortals understood what was going on and followed the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit away, disappearing without a trace.

"Oh! Why are you doing this to yourself?"

Looking at the beauty with her slightly flushed face, Li Yunjing couldn't help but sigh. He had originally saved Zhao Gongming and put an end to the Three Immortals' idea of ​​leaving the mountain, but unexpectedly, he had dragged the three of them into it again because of him.

"When I heard from my elder brother that my senior brother had come to Xiqi, I couldn't help but worry. I had to go down the mountain to help my senior brother."

Seeing the resolute expression on Yunxiao's pretty face, Li Yunjing's heart trembled, and that long-lost feeling of excitement reappeared. After thinking for a moment, he slowly walked towards Yunxiao. To the beauty's surprise, Li Yunjing's strong hand took Yunxiao's jade hand in his, and their fingers intertwined tightly.

"Yunxiao, let's go for a walk!"

With their fingers intertwined, Li Yunjing and Yunxiao walked side by side. The power of the Quasi-Saint's laws floated around them for three zhang. Without the cultivation of a Quasi-Saint, no one could see their presence.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, countless wisps of smoke rose from the Yin Shang camp, as many soldiers busied themselves with their evening meal. Amidst the bustling world, a mix of emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness—formed a palpable aura of menace on the battlefield.

They walked aimlessly, passing through one tent after another, until they emerged from the Yin Shang camp.

"Yunxiao, even if I were to suffer a calamity this time, my life would not be in danger. You shouldn't have come out."

Li Yunjing stopped in his tracks, embraced Yunxiao, and looked at the red glow on the horizon, speaking softly.

"Senior brother, I know, but I still can't help wanting to come down from the mountain to help you!"

Leaning tightly against Li Yunjing's strong shoulder, Yunxiao spoke softly, with an indescribable composure. At this moment, it seemed that the great calamity was no longer on her mind.

"Silly junior sister, no matter what, you must not defy the sage in this battle, and do not worry about me. Neither Second Uncle nor the two leaders of the Western Sect can kill me. At most, they can suppress me for ten thousand or eight thousand years. You and I can pass through this period of time in a seclusion."

Sensing Yunxiao's feelings, Li Yunjing tightened his embrace around the beauty, his fingers twirling her long black hair, and spoke softly of the fate he might have to endure.

Will we fail?

Yunxiao was a smart person, and she sensed her senior brother's helplessness.

"I am a quasi-saint, yet I can only protect those around me. Do not betray my heart."

Li Yunjing's irrelevant answer made Yunxiao's heart sink. His senior brother's meaning was already very clear, but with the teacher here, why didn't he go to seek the teacher's help?

"Don't bother the teacher. The teacher is suffering more than we are. You'll find out sooner or later."

Seeing Yunxiao's confusion, Li Yunjing explained calmly.
