Primordial World: Big shots are all my friends-Chapter 316 - 275, Master Inquires
Chapter 316: Chapter 275, Master Inquires
Taiyi True Man eagerly inquired, "Master, has the Feathered Immortal of the Jie Sect Law Enforcement Team fallen and been put on the list?"
Ran Deng shook his head and responded, "No, he has simply been sealed."
All the Jie Sect Golden Immortals felt aggrieved, yet they had no solution and could only sigh in their hearts about their own lack of strength.
Wenshu Guangfa Venerable suddenly remembered something and hastily asked, "Ziya junior brother, my Dragon Escape Pillar was knocked away during the great battle, have you seen it?"
Jiang Ziya’s eyes flickered with guilt as he said, "Wenshu elder brother, in order to suppress that Golden Peng and save all of you, my elder brothers, I had to trade away the Dragon Escape Pillar."
Wenshu Guangfa Venerable exclaimed in shock, "Traded away!"
Jiang Ziya, feeling sheepish, nodded and quickly signaled Ran Deng and Guang Chengzi with his eyes - Elders, you both tacitly agreed to this.
Ran Deng looked up at the sky, as if to say the sky is so high!
Guang Chengzi looked down at the ground, as if to say the earth is so thick!
Wenshu Guangfa Venerable grabbed Jiang Ziya’s arm, his voice laden with anger, "To whom did you trade it? Why trade my Magic Treasure? Get it back for me now."
"It was traded to the Ancient Great Power Demon Lord," Jiang Ziya rationalized. "I did it to save you all! Elder brother, we as cultivators should cultivate ourselves and not overly rely on external things. Otherwise, how can we even speak of following the path of Tao?
Elder brother, do you think I’m right?"
Wenshu Guangfa Venerable clenched Jiang Ziya’s hand, his eyes filled with fury, "If you don’t care about possessions, why didn’t you trade your own Magic Treasure?"
Jiang Ziya spread his hands and said, "I have already traded away my own Magic Treasure!"
Wenshu was taken aback, then shouted furiously, "Jiang Ziya, return my Magic Treasure!"
Jiang Ziya hurriedly called out, "Master, elder brother, please save me."
Ran Deng coughed, bringing his gaze back from gazing into the sky, and admonished, "Wenshu, do not be rude."
Wenshu reluctantly let go but persisted, "Master, but that is the Supreme Treasure given to me by Master."
Ran Deng explained, "Desperate times call for desperate measures. This was a necessary choice. After the Calamity, I will help you retrieve it, alright?"
Guang Chengzi also tried to soothe him, "Junior brother! Ziya did it to save you all, don’t make it difficult for him now."
Wenshu could only reluctantly respond, "Yes."
Ran Deng announced, "Alright, let us depart."
Chan Sect Immortals, Western Sect’s Mile, and others all mounted their auspicious clouds and hastily left. They arrived with clouds stretching for thousands of miles and abundant auspiciousness, but their departure was especially in disarray, without a trace.
Ji Fa took the lead with a bow and respectfully said, "Farewell, Immortal Masters!"
Jiang Ziya, Nezha, Huang Feihu, and others also bowed in salute.
The auspicious clouds quickly vanished into the horizon.
Jiang Ziya stood up solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, we can begin preparation for the attack."
Ji Fa nodded in agreement, "Good!"
Both armies were instantly mobilized; a great battle was about to commence.
...
On the East Sea Three Lights Immortal Island, Bai Jin played with a Golden Pillar in his hands.
Innate Spiritual Treasure Escaping Dragon Pillar, what a fine item! It could be kept as a collectible, with a flip of the hand the Escaping Dragon Pillar disappeared.
"Bai Jin, come to see me at the Biyou Palace." A commanding voice resonated in Bai Jin’s ears.
Bai Jin immediately rose and headed towards the Biyou Palace, thinking of an excuse to give.
Stepping onto Golden Turtle Island, Bai Jin entered the Biyou Palace and bowed respectfully on the mat, saying, "Disciple pays respects to Master!"
Sitting high on the main seat, Tongtian looked down at the respectfully bowing Bai Jin, and calmly said, "Why did Golden Peng go to participate in the Sealing God Battle?"
Bai Jin honestly replied, "It was the disciple who asked him to go."
Tongtian spoke displeasedly, "I have long said to keep the cave gate closed, to quietly recite a few scrolls of Yellow Court. Why do you still interfere? Do you not understand what I mean?"
Bai Jin stood straight, sadly saying, "Disciple understands, Senior Master Taishang instructed me to enter seclusion for Enlightenment, Master Yuan Shi asked me to attend the teaching, both implying that they did not wish for me to meddle in the affairs of the Divine Enthronement."
"Then why did you still take action? Aren’t you usually the one who most opposes me taking disciples?"
Bai Jin said with emotion, "The disciple understands the hardships of Master."
My hardships? Tongtian fell silent for a moment, then said with a laugh, "What nonsense are you talking about? What hardships could I possibly have?"
"Master, you had us enter seclusion to avoid conflict with the Chan Sect, out of consideration for the feelings of The Three Pure Ones, the disciple understands."
"Some disciples lack in virtue, yet it might be necessary for them to walk through the killing tribulation; being listed in the Divine Enthronement might not be a kind of Creation."
"Master, they go to meet the tribulation, and the disciple does not and cannot intervene.
But the dignity of Master must not be tarnished; the name of our Jie Sect must not be insulted.
Since I have become your disciple, Master, you have always been kind to me, and for that I am deeply grateful.
In the eyes of the disciple, Master is Heaven itself, that supreme and precious existence above Heaven and Earth.
The attack on the Shang Dynasty by Chan Sect and Western Sect, leading to continuous tribulations for the disciples of our Jie Sect, humiliating the Jie Sect’s reputation, the disciple cannot simply turn a blind eye."
Bai Jin respectfully bowed and said, "Master wishes not to contend with Master Taishang, to avoid damaging the bond of The Three Pure Ones, but in recent years, the Master’s depression is something I see and feel as though I were in your shoes, which is why I took action indignantly this time.
If Master wishes to place blame, the disciple is willing to accept punishment."
Tongtian’s expression softened, and he said, "Bai Jin, come here!"
"Yes!" Bai Jin stood up, his figure flashed and appeared above, sitting down on the step beside.
Tongtian spoke leisurely, "When the Sealing God Tribulation began, I already had a premonition that my Jie Sect disciples were destined to meet the tribulation and be enthroned as gods, this is the mandate of Heaven. Hence, I said to keep the cave gate closed, and quietly recite a few scrolls of Yellow Court. Entering the West Land, the Sealing God Platform has a place for you. This is giving you a sliver of a chance to survive; if you do not leave the East Sea, do not step onto the Sealing God Battlefield, you could escape the calamity.
This, Duobao knows, Wudang knows, Jin Ling, Gui Ling, they all know."
Bai Jin solemnly said, "The disciple also knows, but in the heart of the disciple, Master is Heaven; the disciple does not believe in any so-called mandate of heaven, what the disciple knows is that Master must not be slighted, my fate is in my hands, not heaven’s!"
"Haha~" Tongtian laughed heartily twice, and said with joy, "That’s why you entered the tribulation, to stand up for your teacher."
Bai Jin nodded earnestly and said, "Exactly! The disciples of our Jie Sect continuously being enlisted, in the eyes of others, wouldn’t it appear our Jie Sect is inferior to Chan Sect and Western Sect?
I want to show the Primordial Immortals the might of our Jie Sect, let them see the strength of Master’s disciples, the Jie Sect Master stands proud above the world, and the disciples of our Jie Sect are unrivaled among their peers, capable of annihilating the Chan Sect and Western Sect alone, towering over the Primordial World."
Tongtian clapped his hands once, speaking with gratification, "It’s rare for you to have such sentiments."
Although he had prepared himself for the sacrifice of some disciples, with his painstakingly gathered disciples continuously being listed, Tongtian felt depressed and weighed down these past few days.
Bai Jin suddenly ordered Golden Peng to take action, and his first move was earth-shattering, nearly wiping out both the Chan Sect and Western Sect, shaking countless Primordial Immortals, indeed venting a bit of anger for Tongtian. Although Tongtian scolded on the surface, deep down he felt extremely satisfied and his regard for Bai Jin greatly improved.
