Many children, many blessings; the twelve ancestral witches forced marriages throughout the primordi

The gaze travels through the endless void to Kunlun Mountain, to the Jade Void Palace.

Today, the atmosphere in Yuxu Palace is as oppressive as an ice cellar.

Yuanshi Tianzun sat on the Eight Treasures Cloud Throne in the very center of the main hall, his face so gloomy it seemed to drip water.

His days have been unbearable lately. Ever since Lin Xuan, that unpredictable figure, appeared, his Chan Sect hasn't encountered a single smooth-sailing event.

First, the Twelve Golden Immortals were utterly defeated by Lin Xuan and his bunch of brats in the battle for the Human Emperor. Not only were all their magical treasures stolen, but they also suffered severe psychological trauma. Taiyi Zhenren was even shaved bald and returned wearing only a pair of shorts, utterly humiliated.

Then, he sent his eldest disciple, the Antarctic Immortal, to the Pangu Palace to demand the person back. However, the Antarctic Immortal not only failed to get the person back, but was also shattered into charcoal by the barrier and kicked back to Kunlun Mountain by five little brats like a ball.

What broke his spirits the most was that a few days ago he sent Daoist Ran Deng to ambush the Golden Light Mother. He thought he had it in the bag, but Ran Deng was blinded by Lin Xuan with thirty-six genuine Dinghai Divine Pearls. He came back crying with two purplish-black panda eyes.

"A bunch of useless trash! All of you are useless trash!" Yuanshi Tianzun closed his eyes, trying to circulate the Jade Purity Immortal Technique to calm the surging anger within him.

Below the main hall, Guang Chengzi, Taiyi Zhenren, and several other disciples without disabilities knelt on the ground, heads bowed, not daring to breathe. They were truly terrified, afraid that their master might take his anger out on them if he became displeased.

Just as Yuanshi Tianzun had managed to straighten out his qi a little...

Suddenly, an extremely vast and pure aura of compassion descended upon the world without warning. This aura was so powerful that it even penetrated the protective array of Jade Void Palace, condensing into several golden phantom lotus flowers above Kunlun Mountain.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with shock.

"This is... someone attaining enlightenment? No, this isn't the aura of enlightenment; this is the birth of an unparalleled genius!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable immediately began to calculate with his fingers, frantically deducing the secrets of heaven. Although the secrets of heaven were currently chaotic during the Great Tribulation, the birth of a physique of this level could not be concealed by the Heavenly Dao.

After calculating for a few seconds, Yuanshi Tianzun's fingers suddenly froze.

His face went from gloomy to deathly pale in an instant, and then to a purplish-red, as if someone had forced a mouthful of bitter herbs into his mouth, which he could neither swallow nor spit out.

"Cihang..." Yuanshi Tianzun gritted his teeth and spat out these two words, his voice trembling.

He figured it out. The source of this strange phenomenon of golden lotuses falling from the sky was none other than his disciple, Cihang Daoren, who had been kidnapped by Lin Xuan and then completely betrayed him!

What he found even more unacceptable was that the divine revelation revealed that the baby girl born to Cihang was actually the legendary "Innate Pure Water Compassionate Body"!

This physique, naturally compatible with water and the laws of creation, is practically tailor-made for his Chan Sect's Jade Purity Immortal Technique. If this child were born in Kunlun Mountain, he would definitely take him in as a personal disciple immediately and groom him as the next successor of the Chan Sect.

But now, this child's surname is Lin! He is of the Wu clan!

"Lin Xuan...you stole my disciple and also robbed my Chan Sect of its opportunities!" Yuanshi Tianzun's chest heaved violently, and his breathing became as heavy as a bellows.

But that's not the most fatal thing.

Yuanshi Tianzun continued his calculations, wanting to see what innate supernatural abilities this child possessed. When he saw the information relayed by the heavenly secrets, he was completely dumbfounded.

"Saliva...is that the Three Lights Divine Water?"

Yuanshi Tianzun stiffly turned his head and looked at an exquisite eight-treasure glass bottle enshrined on the jade table beside him.

That bottle contained half a bottle of the Three Lights Divine Water, which he had painstakingly collected from every corner of the primordial world since the beginning of time. This was his last resort for saving his life and others; he wouldn't even use a single drop under normal circumstances.

Now, the secret is telling him that the newborn baby can spit out this kind of water from his bottle! And it's an unlimited supply!

What is this? Is Heaven pointing its finger at him and mocking him for being a poor wretch?

"This is outrageous... utterly outrageous!"

The string of "reason" in Yuanshi Tianzun's mind snapped completely.

He thought of himself, the dignified true descendant of Pangu, the supreme sage, now reduced to a bunch of defeated soldiers, barely able to afford decent healing medicine. Meanwhile, Lin Xuan, that shameless scoundrel obsessed with women, not only had a harem of wives and children each more extraordinary than the last, but now even drank the Three Lights Divine Water like water!

Extreme jealousy, anger, resentment, and unwillingness—all sorts of negative emotions instantly broke through the Daoist defenses of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.

"puff--!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable raised his head, and a mouthful of golden, holy blood suddenly gushed out without warning.

The blood spurted extremely high, splashing directly onto the roof of Jade Void Palace, and then fell like rain.

"Sizzle—"

The essence of the saint contained extremely terrifying energy. When it landed on the floor of the Jade Void Palace, which was paved with ten-thousand-year-old white jade, it directly corroded a bottomless pit in the floor, from which puffs of white smoke rose.

"Master!"

Guang Chengzi and Taiyi Zhenren, kneeling below, were terrified. When had they ever seen their revered master so enraged? He had even vomited up the essence of a saint!

Guang Chengzi quickly crawled over, wanting to help Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Get out of the way!" Yuanshi Tianzun kicked Guang Chengzi away, sending him flying into a pillar.

He wiped the gold blood from the corner of his mouth, his hair disheveled, his eyes bloodshot. He no longer possessed the dignity of a saint; he looked like a gambler who had lost all his wealth.

"Lin Xuan... I swear I will not rest until I kill you!"

Yuanshi Tianzun bit his finger and drew an extremely complex blood-red rune in mid-air.

"Go and bring me the Investiture of the Gods!" Yuanshi Tianzun roared at Taiyi Zhenren. "Since the demons of Xiqi are useless, then I will personally intervene! I will forcibly initiate the Investiture of the Gods calamity and send the entire Wu Clan and Jie Sect onto the list!"

Taiyi Zhenren was so frightened that he scrambled to the back hall to retrieve the Investiture of the Gods.

Guang Chengzi clutched his chest and lay on the ground, inwardly groaning. He felt as if the ship of the Chan Sect, under his master's guidance, was hurtling towards an iceberg called "Lin Xuan" at full speed.
