The Primordial Era: Starting with Jingwei Filling the Sea

"It seems that the experience of three thousand lifetimes, plus the incident at Jin'ao Island, has taught Daoist Duobao a lesson. The current Daoist Duobao is not the one from the original timeline who deceived his master and instigated the Great Battle of the Zhuxian Sword Formation, but the Daoist Duobao who has been tempered by failures and setbacks."

Noticing the changes in Duobao Daoist, Fang Yang felt a strong fighting spirit well up in his heart.

Only someone like Duobao Daoren is worthy of being his opponent.

If Daoist Duobao were still the same as before, only capable of spouting empty platitudes while harboring treacherous and immoral intentions, Fang Yang would simply look down on him.

Daoist Duobao saw through the essence of the matter and understood how to use the rules to place himself on the moral high ground. From then on, the struggle between Fang Yang and Daoist Duobao would evolve into a closely contested battle.

Before long, three streaks of light descended from outside the hall.

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit, the Holy Mother of Wudang, and the Holy Mother of Tortoise Spirit slowly walked into the hall. When they saw the two distinct groups of people inside, a knowing look flashed in their eyes.

The three of them didn't say much and chose to sit in the middle.

As long as Daoist Duobao doesn't bring that group of people from Penglai Island to Jin'ao Island, nothing else matters to them.

Their support for Fang Yang is for his elimination of the scourge within the sect, not for his confrontation with Duobao Daoren.

After all the direct disciples had arrived, the Tongtian Sect Leader finally descended.

Even though he was a saint, when he saw the hall full of Great Luo Golden Immortals, especially when he saw the Nine Luminaries Dao Lord and the Heavenly Dao Lord, who were all true and upright Great Luo Immortals of the Jie Sect, the Tongtian Sect Master felt an indescribable sense of pride.

His principle of "education for all" has finally yielded results!

"Master."

Everyone bowed in unison.

After the Tongtian Sect Leader dismissed his disciples from formalities, he turned to Qianyao Daojun and the others, and began calling out their names one by one: "Qianyao, Kanyao, Genyao, Zhenyao, Zhongyao, Xunyao..."

Every time he called out a name, someone behind Fang Yang would stand up. They were already nervous enough about meeting the Tongtian Sect Leader, but being called out one by one made them even more tense.

The Tongtian Sect Leader took in the reactions of the group and nodded inwardly. Compared to Fang Yang, Daoist Qianyao and the others were clearly much more obedient.

Fang Yang wasn't a bad disciple, he was just too "rebellious." Although the Tongtian Sect Leader appreciated Fang Yang's "rebelliousness," he always felt that one day Fang Yang would "rebel" against him.

The Tongtian Sect Leader was very accurate in judging people. Fang Yang and Duobao Daoist were able to play all sorts of tricks, but he didn't care, not because he couldn't see through them.

"You first assisted your senior brother Fang Yang in spreading the Dao, making great contributions to our sect. Later, you attained the Great Luo Dao, greatly enhancing the prestige of our sect. Therefore, I have made an exception and accepted you into the inner sect. From now on, you will be the inner disciples of the Jie Sect and will be able to stay on Jin'ao Island."

The Tongtian Sect Leader had left all his treasures in the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion; he truly had nothing left to offer. Therefore, instead of rewarding Qianyao Daojun and the others with innate spiritual treasures, he promoted them to the inner sect.

When Qian Yao Daojun and the others heard the words "included in the inner sect", they were first stunned, then overjoyed and trembling with excitement.

"Disciple...thanks to my master's great kindness!"

The ten Great Golden Immortals knelt down in unison, their voices choked with emotion, and performed the grand ceremony of three bows and nine kowtows.

Now that they had entered the inner sect, they changed their address for the Tongtian Sect Leader from "teacher" to "mentor".

Calling them "Master" was a bit too much of a stretch, but calling them "Teacher" seemed too distant, so they changed it to "My Beloved Teacher".

Fang Yang was very pleased to see this.

The fact that the Tongtian Sect Leader was willing to make an exception for Qianyao Daojun and others shows that he acknowledges the efforts made by the Qingcheng Mountain lineage. As long as the Tongtian Sect Leader supports them, Fang Yang is full of confidence in changing the future of the Jie Sect.

Daoist Duobao sat on the left, his expression utterly calm, his heart equally undisturbed.

He had long anticipated that the Tongtian Sect Leader would bestow extremely generous rewards upon Daoist Jiuyue and others. This was because he realized that Fang Yang's status in the Tongtian Sect Leader's court was now equal to his own.

Since the Tongtian Sect Leader has agreed to let Hai Chao Daojun and others become outer disciples, he will definitely give the Qingcheng Mountain lineage more benefits.

There is no reward, but promoting the Nine Luminaries Dao Lords and their entourage to the inner sect would better demonstrate the Tongtian Sect Master's high regard for the Qingcheng Mountain lineage.

Moreover, the Tongtian Sect Leader had not yet finished speaking.

"Moreover, the day Cai Wen, Zi Qie, and others are promoted to Great Luo Golden Immortals will be the day they enter the inner sect."

The Tongtian Cult Leader rewarded every member of Fang Yang's team without missing a single one.

I really envy Our Lady of Wudang, Our Lady of Jinling, and Our Lady of Guiling!

The Tongtian Sect Leader was clearly telling the entire Jie Sect that he supported the actions of the Qingcheng Mountain lineage. The Qingcheng Mountain lineage had not harmed their fellow disciples; they were merely reorganizing the internal affairs of the Jie Sect.

With the approval of the Tongtian Sect Leader, the disciples of the Jie Sect could no longer label the Qingcheng Mountain lineage as harming their fellow disciples.

"On behalf of my four junior brothers, I thank Master! If they know this good news, they will surely work hard to attain the Great Luo realm as soon as possible and repay Master's kindness."

Since the four members of the Caiwen Zhenjun lineage were not present, Fang Yang, as the leader of the Qingcheng Mountain lineage, stepped forward to express his gratitude on their behalf.

The Tongtian Sect Leader looked at Fang Yang, in a very good mood: "Originally, I should have given you some time to hold your Dao-attaining celebration. However, the Three Realms are currently in a turbulent period. As disciples of the Jie Sect, you should take the safety of the Three Realms as your own responsibility."

Holding a Dao-attaining celebration is the most glorious moment for a Great Luo Golden Immortal, and also a great opportunity for the Jie Sect to showcase its strength to the outside world. Moreover, among this group of Great Luo Golden Immortals who are attaining Dao is Fang Yang, their personal disciple.

However, matters have priorities, and the Tongtian Sect Leader could only postpone this matter.

Fang Yang bowed deeply and said in a deep voice, "Master is absolutely right. All of us, including your fellow disciples, understand the importance of this matter. As far as I am concerned, the celebration is actually of little importance."

"good!"

The Tongtian Sect Leader nodded slightly, a hint of approval on his holy face. "I can sense your intentions. Now, I have an important matter to entrust to the Qingcheng Mountain lineage."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yang immediately stepped forward: "This disciple is willing to share Master's burdens."

"During the Great Calamity of the Lich King, Fellow Daoist Houtu transformed herself into the cycle of reincarnation and established the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Afterwards, Fellow Daoist Houtu further established the Netherworld based on the Six Paths of Reincarnation, aiming to maintain the order of Yin and Yang and establish the rules of reincarnation."

The fact that Houtu Niangniang transformed into the Six Paths of Reincarnation is one of the greatest merits since the beginning of time. The Netherworld is the foundation of the balance of the Three Realms. This matter involves the balance of Yin and Yang, and no one dares to take it lightly.

"However, although the underworld has been established to this day and has the rudiments of the Ten Kings of Hell, its laws and regulations are incomplete."

The Tongtian Sect Leader spoke solemnly, revealing a hidden worry in the Three Realms: "Furthermore, the desires of the human heart are boundless, and evil thoughts are rampant. The eighteen levels of hell are already filled with vengeful ghosts and resentful spirits. These vengeful ghosts and resentful spirits are so evil that they are obscuring the sun and moon in the underworld, and the underworld is in danger of a great calamity. Fellow Daoist Houtu has asked my Xuanmen for help, requesting that our sect send a great master to help the underworld overcome this crisis."

"You have always been thorough in your work, so our sect will appoint you as our representative to assist Fellow Daoist Houtu in perfecting the Underworld."

The Tongtian Sect Leader dared not send Duobao Daoist to handle this matter. Duobao Daoist's style of doing things meant he was simply incapable of dealing with such a situation.
