Chapter 50 What? You can't figure it out either?
The exasperation at Yuxu Palace did nothing to dampen the bright sunshine at Biyou Palace.
"That felt great, truly great!"
The Master of Heaven slapped the Jade Bed, his eyes crinkling with laughter.
Since the three religions jointly signed the Investiture of the Gods, his Jie Sect disciples have been numerous and were destined to be the main force on the list.
Yuanshi Tianzun kept belittling the Jie Sect with the excuse of "impure origins," which fueled Tongtian Jiaozhu's anger.
Today, this "wild" disciple of the Jie Sect, who appeared out of nowhere, has finally vented his anger.
"This young man not only has a deep understanding of my Shangqing teachings, but also possesses great fortune. To be able to pull off such a deception right under Yuanshi Tianzun's nose is truly a genius beyond compare!"
"No, such a peerless treasure, bearing the banner of our Jie Sect, cannot be allowed to remain unclaimed."
"If that old scoundrel Yuanshi finds us in secret and kills us, wouldn't that be a huge loss for our Jie Sect?"
The Master of Heaven stopped smiling and his expression became serious.
He immediately snapped his fingers.
One after another, the Shangqing Jade Talismans transformed into streams of light and flew out of Biyou Palace.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
On Jin'ao Island, the purple-gold bronze bell that summons all immortals rang three times.
The ringing of the bell signifies that the Grand Master has issued an important decree.
In just a short while.
Outside Biyou Palace, an ethereal mist hangs in the air.
Several figures, exuding an aura that seemed to dominate the heavens, entered the main hall together.
The leader was a stout man with a smiling face. His body was surrounded by the faint glow of countless spiritual treasures. He was none other than Duobao Daoren, the chief disciple of the Jie Sect!
Beside him stood Zhao Gongming, exuding heroic spirit and stroking his long beard.
Next come the three ethereal and beautiful goddesses of Sanxiao: Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao.
And the most core disciples of the Jie Sect, such as the Holy Mother of Wudang and the Holy Mother of Guiling.
"Disciples pay respects to our Master!"
All the immortals bowed in unison.
At this moment, they were all completely baffled, looking at each other in bewilderment.
The myriad precious lights above Duobao Daoist's head swayed slightly. He stepped forward, clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, and said with a wry smile.
"Master rang the bell to summon us, and he is so joyful. What momentous event has befallen our Jie Sect?"
The Master of the Heavens swept his gaze over his trusted disciples, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
"Tell me, which disciple from the outer sect of my Jie Sect has recently secretly gone down the mountain to travel to the coast of the East Sea?"
The disciples were taken aback.
The Tongtian Sect Leader leaned forward slightly, his tone tinged with pride, and recounted the events that had occurred at Chentang Pass with embellishments.
"This person's cultivation is superb, and he has deeply grasped the true meaning of my Shangqing Immortal Light."
"What's even more remarkable is that he actually possessed an ancient treasure capable of freezing time and space. At Chen Tang Pass, right in front of the Taiyi of the Chan Sect, he forcefully intercepted the true spirit of that spirit pearl."
"Not only did we inflict a tremendous loss on that person from Jade Void Palace, but we also angered your Master Yuanshi so much that he abandoned his saintly status and personally sent a telepathic message to confront me and demand an explanation!"
boom!
These words were like a thunderclap from the heavens within Biyou Palace.
Daoist Duobao gasped.
Zhao Gongming's eyes widened, and he grabbed his long beard from under his chin, exclaiming in surprise.
"Freeze time and space? Steal the karma from Taiyi Zhenren? And even angered Master Yuanshi to the point of jumping up and down?!"
The Lady of the Azure Clouds was very charming and lively. Upon hearing this, she immediately giggled, her voice as sweet as silver bells.
"Such a feat is truly exhilarating to hear about."
"Master, when did our outer sect produce such a ruthless and peerless figure? This has truly brought honor to our Jie Sect and severely damaged the prestige of the Chan Sect!"
Lady Yunxiao has the most calm and elegant temperament.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a thoughtful look flashed in her eyes.
"A treasure capable of freezing time and space... such a thing is extremely rare in the entire prehistoric world. If he were truly an outer disciple of my Jie Sect, how could he possess such a heaven-defying opportunity?"
"And to be able to deceive even a Golden Immortal like Taiyi and escape unscathed, such character and methods are by no means ordinary."
Seeing his disciples' enthusiastic response, the Tongtian Sect Leader was greatly pleased and nodded repeatedly.
"That's why I've asked you all here."
"You all manage all the affairs of the sect on your behalf, but do you know who this disciple who has performed such an extraordinary feat is?"
"Is it those few from Kowloon Island, or some wandering immortal from the outskirts of Golden Turtle Island?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader looked down with anticipation in his eyes.
however.
Take a breath.
Two breaths.
The entire hall suddenly fell into a deathly silence.
The smile on Duobao Daoist's face froze, and he turned to look at Zhao Gongming.
Zhao Gongming shook his head blankly and looked at the Holy Mother of Wudang.
The Holy Mother of Wudang also looked completely innocent as she turned to look at the Three Immortals of Sanxiao.
Eyes wide open.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
After a long while, Daoist Duobao finally mustered up the courage to cough twice, step forward, and bow deeply.
"Reporting to Master..."
"This... Although my Jie Sect has tens of thousands of outer disciples, and is known as the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Paying Homage'..."
"But if there really is such a peerless genius who possesses a great treasure and can make Master Taiyi suffer a setback, as the senior disciple in charge of all sect affairs, there is absolutely no way I wouldn't have heard a word about it."
Zhao Gongming also echoed this sentiment.
"Yes, Master!"
"Although we disciples of the Jie Sect are known for our forthright nature and willingness to fight injustice, if we truly possessed such a means of freezing time and space, we would have long been famous throughout the world and renowned throughout the primordial era. How could we possibly keep it hidden forever?"
"This disciple dares to swear on his own head that none of my familiar disciples were involved in the recent disturbance at Chentang Pass!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader was stunned.
The smile on his face gradually froze, and his brows furrowed little by little.
"You knew nothing about it?"
"There's no file on this person anywhere on the entire Golden Turtle Island, or even among the wandering immortals overseas?!"
The Master of Heaven was somewhat skeptical of superstition.
"Think it over carefully, lest you overlook any promising talents who are diligently cultivating themselves abroad!"
"The light flowing around this person is absolutely the purest and most flawless Shangqing Immortal Light. Your Master Yuanshi's eyes would never be wrong about this."
"Since you have cultivated my Shangqing Immortal Light, you must be a member of my Jie Sect!"
Seeing their master's incredibly confident expression, Daoist Duobao and the other core disciples were all dumbfounded.
This is truly unbelievable!
A peerless ruthless figure who can use the orthodox immortal techniques of the Jie Sect, possesses a heaven-defying treasure that is suspected to be the Eastern Emperor Bell, and can even make the Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect run wild.
Even the highest-ranking members of the Jie Sect were completely unaware of his existence?
Is this person some kind of innate deity who sprang from a crack in a rock?!
"Master, is it really not true..."
Daoist Duobao looked miserable, almost in tears.
The Master of Heaven took a deep breath and sat up straight.
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"Good, very good."
"Since none of you know, then I will calculate it myself!"
"I'd like to see which of my Jie Sect's sole heirs has hidden so deeply during this Investiture of the Gods calamity!"
With a wave of his sleeve, the Tongtian Sect Leader unleashed the overwhelming pressure of a saint.
Inside Biyou Palace, the chanting of Buddhist hymns resounded from nowhere.
With eyes slightly closed, he gently tapped the air with his fingertips.
A vast and boundless sage's will directly broke through the barriers of the Great Thousand Worlds and plunged headlong into the rolling river of Heavenly Destiny.
He is going backwards in time.
To cut through the heavy fog of time and capture the cause and effect of that brief, stagnant moment above Chentang Pass.
Inside the main hall, all the disciples held their breath and dared not even breathe loudly.
The sage personally deduced the secrets of heaven; there is absolutely no living being in this world who can escape his presence!
however.
The time it takes for an incense stick to burn has passed.
The Tongtian Sect Leader suddenly opened his eyes.
Those eyes, which seemed to contain the universe and stars, were now filled with astonishment.
"How is that possible?!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader cried out in alarm.
He had just mobilized the power of Heaven to deduce the cause and effect of the disciple who had unleashed the Shangqing Immortal Light.
But what he saw was nothingness!
There is no past, and there is no future.
It's as if there's an invisible, intangible barrier that seals all of that person's secrets and destiny in an unknown dimension.
His saintly divine sense collided with that barrier and actually calculated a chaotic jumble of gibberish!
"You can even block my deductions?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader's expression became extremely solemn.
He finally understood why the Primordial Celestial Venerable's tone had been so probing and angry when he transmitted his voice earlier.
Because even the Primordial Beginning couldn't calculate it!
"What a terrifying cover-up..."
The Master of the Heavenly Sect was secretly alarmed.
This is definitely not some innate treasure that conceals the secrets of heaven.
No matter how powerful a supreme innate treasure is, it will always leave a trace in front of a sage.
This absolute erasure, this pristine cleanliness untouched by the slightest trace of cause and effect in the primordial world.
It's almost like... a variable outside the laws of nature!
"Master, have you... figured it out?"
Looking at the ever-changing expression on the face of the Tongtian Sect Leader, Zhao Gongming asked cautiously.
The Tongtian Sect Leader blushed slightly and coughed to cover his embarrassment.
"This person... has extraordinary opportunities, and the karma surrounding him is shrouded in mystery. Even I, as his master, cannot fully understand him in a short time."
The disciples felt a chill run down their spines, and their reverence for the mysterious fellow disciple they had never met deepened.
Even the Master couldn't figure it out?
Who on earth is this person?!
