Chapter 419 - Young Master Yun’s Visit



Chapter 419 Young Master Yun’s Visit

He was only one step away from the Golden Body of Merit.

In the north of the North Continent, Li Changshou stood quietly above the Demonic Beast Corpse Mountain, feeling the sorrow of the living beings that circulated in the world.

There were still sporadic pursuit battles in the sky. The Heavenly Soldiers there had already begun to save the injured and collect the corpses of the Heavenly Soldiers who had died on their side. The ghostly servants in the Netherworld had completed the mission to stop the demons’ ambush. At that moment, they turned around and started their duty. They put away all the souls that had not been destroyed.

Li Changshou sighed slightly and descended from the sky. He sat cross-legged in front of the corpses of a few Heavenly Soldiers and recited the Dao Sect’s Human Sutra.

Wisps of light flew out of the corpses of the Heavenly Soldiers and condensed into a few faint shadows. They cupped their hands and bowed to Li Changshou before flying towards the Ghost Tribesman not far away.

Life and death were no small matter. When they fought, their flesh and blood condensed.

Li Changshou kept chanting. A water-blue flag appeared behind him. Many demon souls that had been scattered by the demons were also condensed. They were chained by the Netherworld servants and pulled far away. The chanting of sutras gradually increased. Many Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals stopped in various places and chanted sutras. Outside the black mountain, the Magi who were celebrating their harvest also quietened down. The four Grand Magi softly chanted the ancient prayer. An hour later, Li Changshou’s main body met up with Bai Ze. He cupped his hands at Bai Ze and left on a cloud. Soon, they disappeared into the depths of the North Ocean.

Li Changshou “returned”. The one who returned was naturally his incarnation. He rode a cloud and flew into the sky. He bowed to the four maidservants of Goddess Nuwa’s Palace who had complicated expressions. “Greetings, fairies.” “Water God, don’t kill us.”

The four fairies immediately bowed and returned the greeting. The leading fox-eared fairy in the middle said softly, “I often heard from the sisters in the palace that the Water God is good at devising strategies and is resourceful. Today, I saw the Water God break through the enemy’s array and he is actually so brave.” “Fairy, you flatter me.” Li Changshou sighed and said, “Today’s battle was fought by the Heavenly Courts’ soldiers. I’m just doing the deployment and array formation. It’s not significant. I have to thank the fairies for being righteous and coming to persuade the demons. When the battle started, the living beings were plunged into misery and suffering. Fortunately, this is the desolate land of the North Continent. The Magi were already prepared and did not affect too many living beings.” The four fairies looked at each other and smiled.

A woman said, “Water God, your words are really nice. The four of us actually originated from ancient demons. We came here today with selfish motives. We don’t dare to receive your praise.” “After this battle, we will be returning to Goddess Nuwa’s Palace.” The vixen taking the lead smiled and said, “Is there anything that the Water God needs us to bring back to the palace?” Is the Saint rushing me?

“I’ve been busy dealing with the matters in the North Continent recently,” Li Changshou said. “When I’m done with official matters, I must find an opportunity to go to the Goddess’s Palace to visit her.”

“Okay.”

The four fairies bowed and started driving the cloud boat. As they chatted, they headed towards the sky.

Li Changshou pondered for a while. He could sense an aura similar to that of Xiao Lan from the vixen.

Could it be that this is the ancestor of the Qing Qiu Clan who is serving Goddess Nuwa in the palace? She looked younger than Xiao Lan, although her cultivation level was indeed unfathomable. Is there any deeper meaning behind the four maids that Goddess Nuwa sent?

Li Changshou stood in the air with his hands behind his back and pondered carefully. A series of dragon roars sounded from afar. The dragons that were chasing the Primordial Beasts returned and killed seven to eight ferocious beasts at the cost of losing dozens of azure dragons...

The elders of the dragon race walked forward and cupped their fists at Li Changshou.

“Water God, the generals of the Dragon Palace have completed the order to reinforce the battle in the North Continent! Please continue to give the orders!”

“How are the losses?”

“Thank you for your concern, Water God.” An elder of the dragon race sighed and said, “Please forgive us, Water God. We could have left more demon experts behind, but when we saw the enemies of the Sea-Shattering Eye, we lost our minds...” “That’s reasonable. If the Dragon Palace did not help today, the Heavenly Courts would not have the ability to fight the demons directly.” Li Changshou said slowly, “The soul of the dragon that died in battle today can be nurtured in the Merit Pool of the Heavenly Courts for ten years. Then, it will reincarnate and become a member of the Four Seas Dragon Palace. Those who are unable to gather dragon souls should set up a memorial tablet to pay respects. Those who are injured should also recuperate well.” “Thank you, Water God!”

“Everyone, report this matter to General Dongmu later before leaving.”

Li Changshou reminded the four elders of the dragon race in unison. They waited in the sky with many experts of the dragon race.

In this battle, the Heavenly Courts had lost more than 30,000 troops. Dozens of Heavenly Generals and 1200 Magi had died, and more than half of them were seriously injured. As the saying went, beasts would fight to the death. The experts of the demon race who did not manage to escape successfully ended up fighting wildly, causing the Heavenly Courts to suffer considerable damage. In a head-on battle, the Heavenly Soldiers attacked and defended well. They vividly displayed the beauty of distance, making the demon soldiers almost unable to retaliate.

The large number of gaps in the high-end combat power of the Heavenly Courts gave Li Changshou a headache.

For some reason, Li Changshou was looking forward to the Heavenly Courts after the Great God-Conferment Tribulation...

The paper effigy that had transformed into a paper effigy was busy in the North Continent, handling many matters after the battle. Li Changshou’s main body had already escaped with Bai Ze in the sky. He had circled around the Primordial World and rushed back to the Immortal Du Sect to hide.

Later, he still had to remind the Sect Leader to guard Bai Ze’s seclusion in the Immortal Du Sect. Along the way, Bai Ze and Li Changshou did not talk to each other. When they arrived at the Black Pool Peak, Bai Ze lay beside the pool and looked at the clear water. The entire beast was a little dejected.

“Mr. Bai seems to be a little disappointed.”

Li Changshou asked warmly, “Is it because the land pressure is still going against the Heavenly Courts?” “Ah.” Bai Ze slowly exhaled. “It’s not because of that. I already know his temperament. He just felt a little helpless. What’s the point of knowing more? I just saw the ending of some people and things in advance, but I can’t change anything. No matter how much he nags at Lu Ya, he will only look at the benefits in front of him. He will always feel that fate is in his hands. At the end of the day, the arrogance in his heart has buried everything. It is similar to his father’s temperament.”

Li Changshou thought for a while and said, “Now that the Western Sect is involved in the demons again, how do you think the Heavenly Courts should deal with it?”

“Water God, you are testing me again.” Bai Ze perked up and pondered for a while. He maintained his original appearance and said, “Ignore him.” “Oh? Why should I ignore it?” Bai Ze said, “The Western Sect’s attack this time is cautious and ingenious. They did not participate in the battle head-on but helped those demon experts escape. That way, he could obtain the gratitude of the experts of the demon race, but he did not offend the Heavenly Courts too deeply. According to the Western Sect’s train of thought, it would be difficult for the Heavenly Courts to criticize them even if they wanted to. It was better to ignore them and first find out what the Western Sect was plotting before dealing with the problem. As long as we stop them from getting what they want, we will have won this round.” Li Changshou nodded slowly. He carefully compared Bai Ze’s words with his own thoughts. They were the same.

Bai Ze sighed again. “I’m just afraid that Lu Ya will walk onto the path of no return and completely turn to the Western Sect.”

Li Changshou asked, “What does Lu Ya’s transfer to the Western Sect have to do with him?”

Bai Ze said, “There’s nothing wrong with him. Today, he has already lost the protection of Goddess Nuwa. If he can obtain the protection of the Western Saints, his life will naturally be safe. However, if Lu Ya were to join the Western Sect, the demons’ destiny would be sucked dry by the Western Sect. The demons would also become puppets of the Western Sect. If this batch of demons died, I would be more at ease. However, in the future, all the new spirits in the world would be classified as demons by the Western Sect and be exploited and enslaved by them... It’s really the misfortune of all living beings.”

“What you said is something I did not consider previously.” Li Changshou returned to his original appearance and lowered his head to think. Bai Ze smiled and said, “It’s understandable that the Water God values the human race more than the myriad spirits. However, the Water God can now affect the various matters of the Heavenly Courts. He can also affect the Jade Emperor’s decision. He should be more fair.”

Li Changshou nodded slowly and looked at Bai Ze playfully. He smiled and said, “Mr. Bai, did you come here to persuade me?” “Water God, don’t think too much.” Bai Ze lay there dejectedly. “I’m here to improve the food of Ren School.”

“I believe you, Mr. Bai.” Li Changshou cupped his hands and said, “Mr. Bai, please rest for a while. After I settle the matters in the North Continent, I’ll come to drink and chat with you.” Bai Ze sighed in disappointment and continued lying there depressed.

In the northern region of the North Continent, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals left in an orderly manner on a cloud and flew back to the sky.

The troops of the Netherworld also retreated and rode the cold wind back to the Netherworld.

General Dongmu and Li Changshou patrolled the area together. On behalf of the Heavenly Courts, they visited the Magi of the North Continent and sent a warm greeting to the Heavenly Courts. Ox-head and Horse-face led a group of Magi from the Netherworld, who had not had a chance to appear previously, to the front of Li Changshou and General Dongmu. They cupped their fists and bowed obediently. “Lord Water God, we did not get to fight! Moo! We agreed to fight the toughest battle...”

Li Changshou was speechless. These guys even asked for a refill after drinking the medicine. Are they trying to be brave? “Those Primordial Beasts did not participate in the battle directly. That was a mistake in my previous plan.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “However, it was precisely because of your calm ambush that gave the other party a great deterrence. It also gave me more confidence to deal with the battle today. Although you did not participate in the battle directly, your role is not less than that of fighting head-on. On the contrary, it is more important.” Ox-head and Horse-face looked at each other.

Horse-face said, “Lord Water God, don’t say that. This is not in line with the concept of the Magi.”

General Dongmu smiled and forcefully made his presence known. He said, “In today’s battle, all participants will be rewarded based on their contributions. Everyone has contributed greatly.” Ox-head and Horse-face blinked. The former could not help but mutter, “Lord General Dongmu is also here.”

Horse-face said seriously, “Lord General Dongmu, don’t do such an insult to our soul! We did not participate in the battle. What credit do we have?” Ox-head swung his hooves and rubbed his hands. He chuckled at Li Changshou. “Of course, if the Heavenly Courts insist on rewarding us, we can’t go against them, right? You can just give us 100-year-old seasonings. Don’t give too much. If you give too much, we brothers... Will reluctantly accept it. After all, we can’t go against the will of the heavens.”

“Spices?” General Dongmu looked at Li Changshou in confusion. The latter smiled and sent a voice transmission. General Dongmu could not help but laugh. General Dongmu smiled and said, “Since the Magi like to eat, it’s not difficult to do that. Later, let the Water God take the formula. I’ll order the female immortals in the Heavenly Palace to make it and send it to the Netherworld. How about that?”

Ox-head hurriedly nodded. “Thank you, Water God! Thank you, General Dongmu!”

Horse-face was so angry that he rolled his eyes. He did not take the initiative to expose him. After sending away Ox-head and Horse-face, Li Changshou and General Dongmu returned to the Heavenly Courts on a cloud with dozens of Heavenly Generals.

The immortals and gods of the Heavenly Courts gathered at the North Heavenly Gate. After the two officials returned, they congratulated them again.

After struggling for half a day, Li Changshou finally returned to his Water God Residence. He did not have time to rest. He continued to monitor the movements of the demons at the border of the North Continent. This time, the demons had suffered heavy losses in the north of the North Continent.

When the demons suffered a crushing defeat in front of the Magi, the demons guarding the southern border of the North Continent acted as if they were about to attack and provide support. However, it would take at least fourteen to eighteen hours for the remaining demons to pass through the thick miasma.

Secondly, in the north of the Middle Continent, immortal light lingered above the many immortal sects. Countless human Qi Refinement cultivators seemed to have received some orders and had arranged battle formations above the sect.

The demons’ “base camp” immediately felt the pressure. Soon, they made the decision to abandon the demon soldiers in the north of the North Continent.

That was naturally a small trump card that Li Changshou had previously arranged.

He was only using his connections to send an invitation to a small number of immortal sects to help and pressure the demons. Those immortal sects were also willing to do him a favor.

The North Continent was defeated, and the experts fled in a sorry state. Most of the demon soldiers that they had sent were destroyed. The demons were naturally enraged.

However, after listening carefully for a while, Li Changshou realized that there were very few demons who scolded him as the Water God. Most of them scolded the dragon race for currying favor with the Heavenly Courts and scolded the Heavenly Soldiers for using Dao weapons as shields. There were also many who hid behind Dao weapons and did not dare to fight.

When the two words ‘Water God ‘were mentioned, most of the demons felt a little emotional. There were even many demons who praised the Water God’s bravery. They said that their ancestors were also related to the Dao of Water...

The culture of the demons was really unpredictable. Unfortunately, he could not find where Lu Ya was hiding. He did not know how badly he was injured. If the Cosmic Ruler seriously injured Lu Ya, he could arrange for a sneak attack and take his life while he was sick.

The demons at the border of the North Continent did not continue to attack, nor did they show any signs of attacking. Li Changshou felt at ease.

In the next few decades, the demons would probably settle down.

The focus of his and General Dongmu’s work had to be placed on expanding the strength of the Heavenly Courts. He had to wait for the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother to return to the Heavenly Courts. That would be the time to truly eliminate the demons.

The battle today was just to make the demons behave.

Primordial Massacre Sword...

The silver-haired girl... Li Changshou could not help but complain about the habit of the Western Saints.

However, the Saint had already acted shamelessly. What could they, insignificant ants, do? They could only endure it. In the secret chamber of the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou placed the Cosmic Ruler and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda in front of his portrait. He bowed three times to the Grand Pure One, and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and the Cosmic Ruler disappeared from the table.

A familiar Dao rune slowly spread out in Li Changshou’s heart, condensing into two words before dissipating. “Don’t be anxious.” Li Changshou was stunned. Then, he bowed to the portrait of the Saint before leaving the secret chamber.

After returning to the Pill Chamber to meditate, Li Changshou began to summarize the battle in the North Continent. He reflected on the shortcomings and inconsistencies he had made and pondered over the subsequent developments. If his cultivation level was comparable to Daoist Lu Ya’s, he would really have a chance to kill him today.

“Ah....”

He needed a long period of accumulation to improve his cultivation level. He could not rush it. After all, after attaining longevity, the speed at which he comprehended the Dao had clearly slowed down. Most of his original thoughts and unrestrained thoughts had been exhausted. The matters of cultivation had returned to accumulating and comprehension.

I’ll go to the Tushita Palace later and report this matter to the Great Daoist Master.

In addition, during the battle in the North Continent, Li Changshou had asked a few Heavenly Generals to make a comprehensive record of the Shadow-Retaining Ball. He could bring those to the ancient Demonic Armaments of the human race and let them see the combat power of the Heavenly Courts. He could also let the elders feel more at ease.

As he thought about that, Li Changshou was about to move his attention to the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Residence. However, his heart suddenly moved. The immortal senses that filled the entire sect gathered towards the sect.

There, a graceful young master rode a cloud over. He opened the fan in his hand gently and revealed the word ‘cloud’. When the “young master” arrived in front of the mountain gate, he cupped his hands at the few old guards and smiled with a gentle voice. “I, Xiao Yun, am here to visit a good friend. I wonder if you can call him on my behalf.” The old man asked amiably, “Fellow Daoist, why are you looking for your friend’s Dao name?”

“Li Changshou of the Little Qiong Peak... Everyone, don’t worry. He’s already here.”
