Chapter 1676: Chapter 768: Rescuing the Heavenly Fox

"Hidden Dragon, Dongliu, have you gained anything these days?"

In the Immortal Court, the Immortal Emperor Supreme asked Hidden Dragon Ancestor and Leng Dongliu with a pleasant expression.

These two are Heavenly Masters of the Immortal Court, the smartest two people, and they too are deciphering the Primordial Talisman spread by Chen Shi.

The Immortal Emperor Supreme has yet to use the Primordial Talisman to replace his own Dao Pattern, while many in the Immortal Court have already cultivated the Primordial Talisman. Some even break through their original realm unprovoked during cultivation, advancing further to achieve a higher level of Dao Realm!

The contents of the Primordial Talisman are extremely extensive.

It was originally created by Hidden Dragon Ancestor with his intelligence, supplemented by sixteen immortals whose wisdom was not inferior to his, then enhanced by Chen Shi, who added the Outer Dao, and finally perfected to eighty percent by Chen Shi and Chen Yindou, Creation Little Five. The Primordial Talisman contains things far beyond Hidden Dragon Ancestor’s original structure, hiding Daoist Skills of Gods, Immortals, Demons, and Outer Daos within!

Any Immortal Gods cultivating the Primordial Talisman will find their insight and foundation suddenly enhanced, with their Daoist Practice rapidly increasing; breakthroughs in their original realm become common occurrences.

The Immortal Emperor Supreme observed this scene, appearing calm on the surface, but he hurriedly sought out Hidden Dragon and Leng Dongliu, evidently less composed internally.

Leng Dongliu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the structure of the Primordial Talisman is extremely intricate, containing unfathomable Daoist Skills, especially those of the Outer Dao, which are profoundly difficult to comprehend. For the time being, we cannot determine if there are any flaws."

Hidden Dragon Ancestor stated categorically, "But there must be flaws!"

Leng Dongliu questioned, "Where are the flaws?"

Hidden Dragon Ancestor shook his head, "I can vaguely sense that there are flaws within the Primordial Talisman, but it’s challenging to pinpoint exactly what the flaws are."

The Immortal Emperor was somewhat disappointed, "If we continuously cannot identify whether there are flaws in the Primordial Talisman, does it mean we will never dare to cultivate it?"

Leng Dongliu hesitated briefly and said, "Your Majesty, there is another method, but it’s somewhat lacking in moral integrity. I do not know whether it’s appropriate to speak..."

The Immortal Emperor declared decisively, "Speak!"

Hidden Dragon Ancestor glanced at Leng Dongliu but said nothing.

Leng Dongliu said, "The Primordial Talisman was spread by Chen Shi; the one who may have left flaws is only him. Which means, as long as Chen Shi is dead, no one will know where the flaws are."

The Immortal Emperor’s gaze turned sharp as he fell silent for a moment and then said softly, "Killing the Dharma Transmission Ancestor would make us public enemies. Pointed at by thousands, dying without an illness. Let alone killing the Dharma Transmission Ancestor? It’s not only lacking moral integrity but also damaging to reputation."

Leng Dongliu smiled and said, "That’s the interesting part. Your Majesty doesn’t kill Chen Shi but propagates that killing Chen Shi would resolve the flaw issue; someone else will act on Your Majesty’s behalf. In this way, it’s others who lack moral integrity, not Your Majesty. Your Majesty can still hold the moral high ground, all Your Majesty needs to do is wait for news of Chen Shi’s death."

The Immortal Emperor nodded lightly upon hearing this, "This task, I’ll leave to you, Dongliu."

He felt relieved, as if a great weight was lifted, and he drifted away with ease.

Leng Dongliu straightened up, about to leave, when Hidden Dragon Ancestor called him back, "Daoist Leng, your strategy is a poisonous scheme, not chosen by the wise."

Leng Dongliu paused, turned back and laughed, "Since you can’t identify the flaws of the Primordial Talisman, you can’t solve the problem, then solve the person who creates the problem. How could this strategy be poisonous?"

Hidden Dragon Ancestor responded, "Chen Shi perfected the Primordial Talisman and preached to the world, he is the Daoist Ancestor. We Immortals, the Divine beings of the Heavenly Court, and countless future cultivators will walk the path he pioneered, becoming his disciples. Using this strategy to kill the Daoist Ancestor isn’t a poisonous scheme?"

Leng Dongliu laughed, "Chen Shi is the Daoist Ancestor? Wrong, Hidden Dragon, you are the Daoist Ancestor! You are the one who created the Primordial Talisman, Chen Shi merely perfected it. He is the one who stole your results, a thief!"

Hidden Dragon Ancestor shook his head, "I may have created the first Primordial Talisman, but I had too many mundane affairs and didn’t continue to labor hard on it. I simply handed this task to my disciples. They spent over ten thousand years and only completed twenty percent of the Primordial Talisman. Chen Shi completed eighty percent.

I got the Primordial Talisman and thought of uniting the Three Pure Ones Realm and Western Heaven to strengthen my power. Chen Shi perfected the Primordial Talisman, preached to the world, sowed seeds across the lands. Such wisdom and generosity, it’s apt to call him the Daoist Ancestor. Using strategy to kill the Daoist Ancestor is a poisonous scheme!"

Leng Dongliu laughed heartily, shaking his head repeatedly, "Dao Brother, you and I are strategists, Heavenly Masters, working for the Immortal Emperor; not for the world’s people. Our master is not Chen Shi, even if he is the Daoist Ancestor, we must kill him if he blocks our path!"

Hidden Dragon Ancestor flared with anger, stepped forward, and shouted, "Leng Dongliu, if the Three Pure Ones are enemies of our Immortal Court, wouldn’t you use this poisonous scheme against the Three Pure Ones Daoist Ancestor too?"

Leng Dongliu replied cheerfully, "As strategists, we certainly should. If the Three Pure Ones block the way, we must exterminate them! Dao Brother Hidden Dragon, you are my senior, with long Life Span, is your vision narrower than mine as a junior? This is the reason I am the Left Heavenly Master and you are the Right Heavenly Master."

He waved his hand as he left.

Hidden Dragon Ancestor did not pursue further discussion.

Though both are Heavenly Masters, the left is greater than the right, the power of the Left Heavenly Master is higher, while the Right Heavenly Master’s power is slightly inferior. His status is indeed slightly lower than Leng Dongliu’s.

"Those who accomplish great things are not constrained by trivial matters. But murdering the Daoist Ancestor isn’t a trivial matter."

He returned to his residence, contemplative, and summoned his Daoist boy, "Go to Heavenly Beauty Garden, find Zuo Gongming, and give him this, saying the master has obtained the Primordial Talisman of his cultivation in the Immortal Dao, and that he should cultivate well and not disappoint the master’s expectations."
