Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful

Chapter 68 The Supreme Being's Schemes

After observing Taishang quietly for a while, Tongtian Jiaozhu asked, "Elder brother!"

Why did you ask me to give Lingbao just now?

That's...

The rest was left unsaid, but the meaning was already very clear.

Upon hearing this, Taishang glanced at Tongtian Jiaozhu.

"It's fine if you don't want to give it to me."

Either you go and find a cultivator to succeed the Heavenly Emperor.

Either you bear the consequences of disrupting the primordial order.

Otherwise, do you think Jieyin and Zhunti could give Lingbao?

Those two don't possess many top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

This time, Haotian extorted two items from them, which has already severely damaged their reputation.

If it weren't for the current Western religion, there would only be a few disciples.

He was able to take care of the two saints, Jieyin and Zhunti.

Otherwise, Western religions are bound to cause a major upheaval.

What Western religions can't withstand, your Jie religion can?

Until a suitable successor to Haotian is found, we should not attempt to force him to abdicate.

Otherwise, the cost will only be greater.

Let's go back!

Your sect has many followers, and among them, quite a few have deep karmic burdens.

Go back and think about how to resolve this matter.

Don't take Haotian's words to heart.

If you wait until he takes it seriously, you'll be the one who suffers.

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Lord immediately became somewhat unconvinced.

"no!

Brother!

I am the saint!

"Then what gives Haotian the right?"

Upon hearing this, Taishang glanced at Tongtian Jiaozhu.

"right!

You are the saint!

But what can you do to Haotian?

Kill him?

Is your little bit of merit enough to offset your karma?

They couldn't even force him to abdicate.

Haotian is neither Dongwanggong, nor Dijun, nor Taiyi.

Those few are like rootless duckweed, easily manipulated by us.

If the Heavenly Emperor Haotian himself is not capable enough...

If they don't display the aura of ruling the primordial world, then it doesn't matter if we try to manipulate them.

But now Haotian has already shown his ambition.

How could that person in Zixiao Palace allow us to do as we please?

We gained face by manipulating Haotian.

But is it Haotian who will be hurt?

Do not!

We've hurt that person from Zixiao Palace!

This time, Yuanshi also miscalculated, forcing Haotian to abdicate without prior consultation.

Otherwise, why would we be in such a passive position?

Haotian has already laid down the rules; if you don't want to be passive...

The old Taoist priest advises you to take the initiative.

Clean up all the karma and causes of those under your tutelage.

Despite the previous agreement, Haotian would not attack the Sage's Dojo.

But what if that guy is unhappy and blocks your Jin'ao Island?

How do you break this deadlock?

Are we to leave our disciples to remain in the East Sea forever?

After the Supreme Lord finished speaking, the Tongtian Sect Leader was momentarily speechless.

Got it!

This saint of mine is a waste!

He's actually doing worse than Haotian.

After a moment of silence.

The Tongtian Sect Leader asked unwillingly, "Elder brother!"

Are we just supposed to watch Haotian show off his power?

If we let him continue like this, what dignity will we saints have left to speak of?

"If we can't even protect our own disciples then, our reputation as a sage will truly be ruined."

Upon hearing this, Taishang frowned and said, "Look at you, you're in such a hurry again!"

Don't rush!

Do you think that in this incident, your second brother only contributed the Kowloon Agarwood Chariot?

Although that thing looked quite nice, it was nothing more than a rare treasure.

In his hands, it would be considered a top-grade item.

We all paid the price of using top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Do you think he can get away with this so easily?

If you're in a hurry, don't go to the old Taoist priest next time.

"This old Taoist priest doesn't have that many magical treasures to throw away."

At this point, the Supreme Lord looked at the Master of Heaven and said, "Just wait and see!"

We, as saints, are immortal and have endless lifespans.

There will always be opportunities in the future.

So what if we miscalculate for a moment?

We can find it again later.

Don't worry about temporary gains or losses.

Dealing with your own people's affairs is the most important thing right now.

Hearing the words of the Supreme Lord, the Tongtian Sect Leader had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Fortunately, Haotian didn't want his Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation this time.

Otherwise, things will become really difficult.

It's certain that things will turn ugly.

Then the Tongtian Sect Leader sighed.

"Why!

That's it!

Let's leave it at that for now!

How do I begin to work on eroding the karma of my disciples?

And then there's the cause and effect.

Upon hearing the question posed by the Tongtian Sect Leader, Taishang was speechless.

What are the karmic consequences and causes of the disciples of the Jie Sect?

hiss!

That's really something.

The Jie Sect is said to have ten thousand immortals paying homage.

The actual number is close to 100,000.

Whether it's using the Tongtian Sect Leader's own merits to cleanse his disciples of their karma.

Even with the intervention of the Tongtian Sect Leader, resolving their karmic entanglements was no easy task.

After pondering for a moment, Taishang said quietly, "This is the only solution I can think of now."

The only option is to abandon those burdened with heavy karma.

Leave behind those with shallow karma.

Then those with shallow karma will go to the underworld to accumulate merit.

Or send them to Heaven.

This way, Haotian can avoid giving him an excuse.

If you're unwilling, then you'll just have to leave it to fate.

Upon hearing this idea, the Master of the Heavens immediately showed a troubled expression.

Send your disciples to the underworld and the heavenly court?

If they were willing, why would they have waited until now?

Moreover, even if the disciples are willing now.

They no longer have a place in Heaven.

After pondering for a while, the Tongtian Sect Leader had no choice but to speak up: "Elder brother!"

Haotian now has many cultivators under his command.

Where is there any place for us disciples of the Great Sect?

"We can't expect our great sect's disciples to guard the gates for Haotian, can we?"

As the Tongtian Sect Leader finished speaking, Taishang said softly, "As long as you agree, we will always find an opportunity."

No seats available?

If there are no seats available, let Haotian mark out a space.

Once the grand scheme of things is established, even if the Heavenly Emperor is unwilling, he has no choice.

However, their location is probably not very good.

We can only do so much by scheming to send our disciples to the Heavenly Court.

If we ask for a higher position again, Haotian has plenty of excuses to fob us off.

In that case, you might not achieve your goal.

Are you willing?

After pondering for a moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader said, "Forget it!"

Compared to being killed by Haotian, giving them a decent but not too high or low position in the Heavenly Court is not bad.

"good!

"Then we'll make arrangements when the time is right."

The Supreme Lord and the Master of Heaven were pondering on Shouyang Mountain how to help the disciples of the Jie Sect escape the crisis.

At this moment, Mount Sumeru was eerily quiet.

After the two Western Saints returned, they sat in their cave without saying a word.

A long silence followed.

Zhunti then spoke in a sinister tone, "Senior Brother!"

We suffered huge losses this time.

I just can't figure it out.

How did things turn out this way?

We were clearly just fueling the flames.

In the end, they suffered the greatest losses.

Upon hearing this, Jieyin replied, "Junior Brother!"

Do you think it's possible?

Of course, this is just my assumption.

Do you think it's possible that those four from the East...

Are they conspiring with Haotian to scheme against us?

Upon hearing Jieyin's words, Zhunti's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.

Yes!

Otherwise, how could the Three Pure Ones have agreed so readily?

Especially the Tongtian Sect Leader.

They can even recall the spiritual treasures that have been bestowed upon them.
