Chapter 621: Attacking the Chaos Bell!

It was not difficult to find a reason to conceal his true purpose in going to the Chaos Sea.

Li Changshou had always kept a secret plan. He was waiting to fulfill his promise to the Grandmaster of Heaven and use the Kun Peng Ark to surround the Chaos Bell.

He was the master of stability. He could not fight a battle that he was unprepared for.

However, it would take at most fifty years before he could return…

Li Changshou was a little worried.

Now, the start of the God-Conferment Tribulation was just around the corner. If he left the Primordial World for too long and the situation changed again, he would not be able to deal with it in time. Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?

To Li Changshou, catching the Chaos Bell was indeed a small matter.

It was not that he looked down on the Chaos Bell. After all, it was the three-piece suit for splitting open the sky. If he looked down on it, Boss Tu would teach him a lesson in an instant.

It was purely because Li Changshou was not optimistic about this trip. He estimated that the Grandmaster of Heaven and himself only had a 30% chance of catching the Chaos Bell.

There was a 70% chance of failure. Wouldn’t it be a waste of effort if he went in all directions?

The more he communicated with the boss of the Taiji Painting, the more Li Changshou knew about the mystical nature of the three-piece Heaven-Opening Set. He also knew that the Heaven-Opening Axe that had once followed Pangu was extraordinary.

The Pangu Banner could cut through the sharpness of the Chaos Sea.

The Taiji Painting determined the universe, Yin-Yang, and the Rules of Righteousness.

Only the Chaos Bell was once controlled by the East Emperor of the East during the ancient times. However, no one could accurately say what was so magical about it. It was only rumored that the Chaos Bell could travel through the long river of time.

If the rumors were true, it would indeed be a little scary.

Back then, the East Emperor Tai Yi seemed to only treat the Chaos Bell as a defensive treasure.

As for the Chaos Bell and the Grandmaster of Heaven, they were constantly fighting with their wits and courage. They shouted, “Hahahahaha, you can’t catch up to me, right?” They slipped away from the Saint in the Chaos Sea for a few Yuanhui…

Li Changshou reckoned that the treasure was not just a demon. Even with the Kun Peng Ark, it would not be optimistic.

How should I deal with this matter?

Previously, when he agreed to the Grandmaster of Heaven’s request, he did not expect him to delay the matter until today.

“What’s wrong, Changgeng? Do you have any difficulties?”

“No, I don’t have any difficulties.” Li Changshou quickly made up his mind and smiled. “I’ve already made preparations for this. I’m waiting for you to summon me, Uncle-Master. Although it was a little late now, he did not rush out when the killing tribulation arrived. However, Uncle-Master, I have two requests. One is to set a deadline. I have to return within many years. I’m worried that the Heavenly Courts will lose control. Secondly, try not to make this matter public. I’m worried that if the Western Sect finds out that I left the Primordial World, they will target the Heavenly Courts again.”

The Grandmaster of Heaven smiled and said, “Alright. Changgeng, you are reliable. You can make the arrangements.”

“Thank you, Uncle-Master.”

The water in the pool rumbled. Li Changshou sat at the edge and cupped his hands. In his heart, he had already secretly mobilized the paper effigy to be busy.

Half a day later, Li Changshou left the Green Touring Palace and chatted with Daoist Duobao, who had sent him off. Then, he turned around and headed towards the Heaven Gate in the sky. Nothing seemed to have happened.

In the Green Touring Palace, the Grandmaster of Heaven disappeared again.

However, before he left, he summoned the Goddess of Golden Spirit. No one knew what the Grandmaster of Heaven had told the Goddess of Golden Spirit.

A medium-level scene quietly played out on the Primordial World stage.

Half a month later, in the Grand White Palace.

The Golden Roc returned from the trichiliocosm in a hurry. It said that there had been otherworldly demons causing trouble in the trichiliocosm recently. From the edge of the trichiliocosm to the inner region of the trichiliocosm, hundreds of otherworldly demons had attacked the Qi Refinement cultivators recently.

Hence, Li Changshou drafted a memorial and brought it to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall to report the matter in front of the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Courts.

The Jade Emperor had long received Li Changshou’s secret report. He turned a blind eye to the Grandmaster of Heaven’s desire to create the Chaos Bell and allowed Li Changshou to go on stage.

To suppress the otherworldly demons.

That sounded like what the Heavenly Courts would do.

This crusade was not ordinary. They did not send the Heavenly Soldiers to the Chaos Sea to fight. Those who were not Golden Immortals could not withstand the suppression of the Chaos aura.

To resist the Chaos aura, one had to have a complete Dao of their own. A third-stage Golden Immortal was the threshold for entry into the Chaos Sea.

The Jade Emperor used the Golden-Winged Roc as the Marshal. The Deputy Commander of the Heavenly River, Ao Yi, was the Deputy Commander. He ordered Mei Wenhua, Mei Dixian, Mei Liubing, and Mei Xinqing as the Generals who went out of the Chaos Sea in the Xuandu City to search for the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy.

In front of everyone, Li Changshou gave the Golden Roc a stack of paper effigies and a few treasure pouches. He also instructed the Golden Roc to make more preparations when he went out of the Chaos Sea. He did not want to be greedy and advance rashly.

The Heavenly Fiend Supremacy was a Connate Godfiend. He was a fish that had escaped the net under the Pangu Divine Ax back then. Just from his qualifications, he was quite difficult to deal with.

Soon, such a huge matter spread throughout the Primordial World.

The otherworldly demons were the nemesis of most Primordial Dao cultivators. Many cultivators praised the actions of the Heavenly Courts.

He swaggered and made noise.

The Golden Roc and Ao Yi led the Four Mei Generals and the 30,000 elite Heavenly Courts’ Heavenly Soldiers towards the Xuandu City.

Another month later, the Heavenly Courts’ team arrived at the entrance of the Xuandu City. The 30,000 Heavenly Soldiers stationed there to guard the entrance.

Ao Yi stopped in Xuandu City to provide support.

However, the Golden Roc brought the four generals into the Chaos Sea and quickly disappeared.

“Little Junior Brother, what are you doing?”

The Great Daoist Master looked in the direction where the Golden Roc disappeared. He stood on the city wall and was slightly puzzled.

Beside him, Kong Xuan, who was dressed in a light blue dress and looked charming and gentle, pondered for a while and smiled. “Why didn’t you ask him directly just now?”

“Ahem.” The Great Daoist Master puffed out his chest and raised his head. He said calmly, “At the end of the day, you have to have some dignity as the Eldest Senior Brother. Moreover, he only sent a voice transmission to me and instructed me. He did not appear directly and rushed into the Chaos Sea. He probably had something urgent to attend to.”

“Your Eldest Senior Brother is really comfortable with that.”

Kong Xuan said softly, “You can sleep here and cultivate all day. You don’t have to worry about the three sects.”

“The capable do more work.”

The Great Daoist Master stretched and replaced the reclining chair behind him with a soft couch. He lay down comfortably.

Kong Xuan walked up gently and tapped the Great Daoist Master’s leg with his slender fingers. The Great Daoist Master’s cloth shoes fell off on their own.

Then, she meditated in the corner of the soft couch.

The Great Daoist Master yawned and said, “The Primordial World is so huge. Why don’t you walk around and take a look? There’s no need to guard here.”

Kong Xuan pursed his lips slightly. “I won’t hinder you in any way. Just sleep with me.”

“I’m afraid you’ll be bored.”

The Great Daoist Master squinted and smiled. Soon, he closed his eyes and began to snore.

Kong Xuan lowered his head and stared at the Great Daoist Master’s face. He moved a slender finger over. His fingertip was not even an inch away from the Great Daoist Master. However, he did not really touch it. Instead, he slowly slid it across his face.

If only I could enter your dream.

She muttered softly, her eyes filled with gentleness. She leaned against the armrest of the soft couch and fell into a daze.

Ao Yi, who was under the city wall, was speechless.

What kind of immortal couple is this!?!

Is Ren School really not prosperous?

Any one of them can challenge anyone below the Saint of the Western Sect!

Although he was the Brother Sect Master’s most trusted younger brother, Ao Yi felt that he should not have such thoughts.

However, when he saw the interaction between Big Sister Kong Xuan and the Great Daoist Master, Ao Yi felt… aggrieved for the Western Sect!

He felt aggrieved.

Shaking his head, Ao Yi looked at the Yin-Yang Array on the ground beside him. He also perked up and was prepared to defend against any attacks.

Brother Sect Master had told him that this ugly array was no small matter.

Ao Yi did not know the exact function of the array formation. It was not for protection, killing, teleportation, or searching. It contained the Great Dao of Yin and Yang. The Dao runes were obscure and difficult to understand…

To be safe, Ao Yi did not comprehend the array formation. He sat cross-legged at the side and set up a simple concealment barrier outside.

Seven to eight days passed in the Primordial World.

In the Chaos Sea, a black shadow spread its wings and glided over. As the Dao in the Chaos Sea was chaotic, it could not be described how huge its body was or how fast it was.

In short, it was huge.

If the experts of the Primordial World, who had fought for the Primordial Violet Qi in the Xuandu City back then, saw his figure, they would naturally be extremely shocked. Why did Kun Peng return to its original state?

The Kun Fish turned into Kun Peng again.

In Kun Peng’s body, in an ancient stone hall near the heart meridian, the Golden Roc stood quietly. The four Mei Generals knelt on both sides.

Li Changshou, who should not have appeared there, sat on a meditation cushion and frowned at the slowly spinning Taiji Painting in front of him.

The Yin-Yang Qi slowly rotated, and a blurry image began to appear in the Taiji Painting. Then, the image gradually became clear, and the situation of the Little Qiong Peak appeared.

With a thought, Li Changshou enlarged the image a little. He could see Ling’e sitting by the pool, hugging the stone slab, and chuckling.

Half of the stone slab was engraved with the Steadiness Sutra, while the rest was engraved with Li Changshou’s figure.

This girl…

Forget it. I’ll just punish her more when I get back.

With another thought, the Yin-Yang Qi pulled, and a 2,000-feet-tall jade statue of a fairy appeared in the Taiji Painting. It was the situation on the Three-Immortal Island.

Of course, Yun Xiao agreed.

As he thought about it again, the image in the Taiji Painting quickly changed, like a stream of light.

From the residence of the Sea God Sect’s demonic soldiers in the South Ocean to the few tribes of the Magi in the North Continent, from the front of the Heavenly Courts’ Lingxiao Hall to the Eighteen Levels of Hell in the Netherworld.

The wisps of Yin and Yang Qi that remained in the world became Li Changshou’s eyes.

In order to fulfill his promise to the Grandmaster of Heaven, Li Changshou specially borrowed the Taiji Painting from the Grand Pure One. He wanted to use the power of the Taiji Painting to monitor the Primordial World at any time.

That was not all.

The Taiji Painting controlled the Yin-Yang Great Dao. There were also fragments of the Yin-Yang Great Dao and the Cosmic Great Dao scattered in the Chaos Sea.

Li Changshou would collect the fragments along the way and place them in various places along the way. He would wrap them in a Chaos Spirit Array that Senior Lang had created.

In that case, as long as anything happened in the Primordial World, Li Changshou could ride the Taiji Painting and hold the Cosmic Ruler to return to the Primordial World as quickly as possible.

Apart from that, Li Changshou had also prepared some trinkets. The most important of them was a time-keeping Dharma artifact.

In Kun Peng’s body, it was not affected by the Lawless Dao. These Dharma artifacts could also be used normally.

Ring…

A copper bell suddenly swayed beside him. Li Changshou raised his eyebrows and made Kun Peng slow down. He said to the Golden Roc, “Help me fetch the senior brothers and sisters of Jie School.”

“Yes, Teacher!”

The Golden Roc cupped his fists and agreed. He turned around and transformed into a golden light to escape the hall. He flew out of Kun Peng’s body and onto its back.

Not long after, the Golden Roc transformed into its main body and returned. There were three figures on its back. They were Zhao Gongming, the Goddess of Golden Spirit, and the Goddess of Turtle Spirit.

The three experts of Jie School looked around. After confirming that it was the Demon Master Kun Peng, their jaws almost dropped.

After they met up with Li Changshou, they could not help but ask non-stop.

Li Changshou naturally would not mention Senior Lang. He only explained simply that Kun Peng had been subdued by him. At that moment, it had lost its normal mind and was like a Dharma treasure ship.

The Goddess of Turtle Spirit praised, “Even a ruthless person like Kun Peng was defeated by Junior Brother Changgeng. I really… don’t know how to evaluate it.”

Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and smiled. “This place is not bad. You guys talk about serious matters first. I’ll find a corner to cultivate for a while. Recently, I’ve been thinking about the treasure that Changgeng gave me. I’m starting to have some ideas.”

“Brother, don’t be anxious. Is the Qingping Sword here?”

“It’s with me.” The Goddess of Golden Spirit flipped her hand, and green light surrounded it. The Qingping Sword appeared in her palm.

Li Changshou cupped his hands at the Qingping Sword and said, “Please point in a direction. We’ll go after the Grandmaster of Heaven now and try to return as soon as possible.”

The Qingping Sword trembled slightly and floated up on its own. The tip of the sword was pointed upwards.

Li Changshou took out the jade token that controlled Kun Peng and tapped it a few times. The stone hall trembled slightly. Kun Peng flapped its wings and rushed deeper into the Chaos Sea.

Li Changshou said, “When we return, don’t forget to catch the Heavenly Fiend Supremacy. We have to put on a show.”

The Golden Roc lowered his head and accepted the order. The Four Mei Generals did not dare to move. He only knelt there and emitted a holy light.

In the corner of the stone hall, Zhao Gongming had already fallen into a state of Dao enlightenment. The weak Cosmic Ruler was slowly spinning around him.

The Goddess of Golden Spirit smiled and said, “It’s rare to see him so diligent.”

“Where the opportunity is.” Li Changshou smiled and muttered softly, “I thought that Yun Xiao would come.”

“Master specially instructed me not to let Junior Sister Yun Xiao move this time.”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit’s eyes were filled with mischief. She teased him and said, “We’re going to do something serious this time. Master was afraid that you guys would be too focused on your romantic conversation and let go of the treasure.”

After saying that, the Goddess of Golden Spirit blinked at him and led the Goddess of Turtle Spirit to Zhao Gongming’s side. They also meditated and cultivated.

Li Changshou smiled and shook his head.

Do you really not know the logic of ‘when a man and a woman work together, their work will be doubled’?

Li Changshou sat back on his meditation cushion. Half of his attention was focused on the Primordial Violet Qi in Kun Peng’s essence soul, while the other half was focused on the Taiji Painting and observing the various parts of the Primordial World.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he could carry out the next stage of “heart training”.

Now, the improvement of his Dao realm was relatively slow. He could not make a small breakthrough in a few months. It was time to dig out his potential in various aspects.

The Chaos Sea was endless. He did not know where the Chaos Bell was hiding.

Previously, the Grandmaster of Heaven had run in the Chaos Sea for so long in order to find the Chaos Bell. He reckoned that the journey this time would not be short.

According to his previous plan, Li Changshou kept leaving behind “buoys” made of Dao Law fragments to let the “legacy array” left behind by Senior Lang showcase more light and heat.

Hence, 23 years later.

Buzz! Buzz!

The Qingping Sword, which was floating in the middle of the hall, suddenly flickered with a resplendent sword beam, waking the experts in the hall.

Li Changshou stood up and followed the guidance of the Qingping Sword. He began to make Kun Peng change its direction.

Stop the Chaos Bell!

…

An unfamiliar sky, an unfamiliar land, and a strange mountain.

“Where is this?”

The breeze blew and blew the old Daoist priest’s figure, making him a little dazed.

Images appeared in his heart. They seemed to be his memories, but they were incomplete.

It seemed that his memories had shattered into pieces, and only a small portion of them had been glued back.

Qi Yuan?

That seemed to be his Dao name.

The old Daoist priest pondered quietly. His listless eyes reflected the golden ball floating in the treasure pool in front of him. He lowered his head and looked at his faint body.

Soul? Essence Soul?

He seemed to have been engulfed by a ball of flames and lost consciousness.

“Master!”

“Master ~”

“Changshou… Ling’e…”

The old Daoist priest muttered softly. A few images appeared in his heart. They were a man and a woman who had been growing up.

At that moment, a gentle golden light floated over from the side and wrapped around the old Daoist priest’s shadow. His frown gradually relaxed. The images in his heart were like a dream. They were arranged and revealed.

“I’m not dead?”

Qi Yuan fell into deep self-doubt. He had clearly been burned by the Golden Crow. His Turbid Immortal Dao Body and essence soul were as weak as paper.

No, it was not as good as the thin paper that his eldest disciple used to create paper effigies.

He sighed in his heart. He still lacked most of his memories, but most of them were still intact…

“Fellow Daoist, you’re already dead.”

Qi Yuan was stunned when he suddenly heard such a gentle voice. He turned around and hurriedly stood up. He bowed to the female immortal standing on the hill in the distance.

“I, Qi Yuan, a Qi Refinement cultivator of the Immortal Du Sect, greets you, Senior. Thank you for saving my life!”

“Fellow Daoist, you’re welcome.” Hou Tu said warmly, “You don’t have to thank me. I’m just returning Fellow Daoist Changshou’s favor.”

“Senior, you are…”

“The Magi, Lady of Earth.”

“Lady of Earth! Burp!”

Qi Yuan widened his eyes. His legs turned weak and he knelt down.

However, there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

After experiencing life, death, soul dissipation, resurrection, and the reunion of remnant souls, his Dao heart had undergone quite a change.

The Lady of Earth raised her hand and helped Qi Yuan up from afar.

“Fellow Daoist, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. This is the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Although your soul is fine, you can still stay here for a few more days and accumulate some good fortune to absorb the merit that Fellow Daoist Changshou has given you. Fellow Daoist Changshou has been worried about your situation. That way, he can be more at ease.”

“Ah, yes.” Qi Yuan agreed obediently and hurriedly asked, “Senior, are Changshou and Ling’e alright?”

The Lady of Earth said, “Of course. Fellow Daoist Changshou is now ranked tenth on the Heavenly Dao sequence. His position in the Heavenly Courts is only second to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. Fellow Daoist Ling’e seemed to have gone to the Heavenly Courts to cultivate in Fellow Daoist Changgeng’s Grand White Palace. She rarely appeared. However, I have something to ask you to consider.”

“Go ahead, go ahead.”

“Now, Changshou is in charge of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. You are the master who raised him. The Heavenly Dao has appeared. After you reincarnate, you will enter the Great Tribulation and become an important member of the God-Conferment Tribulation…”

Qi Yuan was stunned. He could not digest the information.

After hearing the Lady of Earth’s explanation, Qi Yuan simply said, “Senior, why don’t you tell me what to do to be best for Changshou?”

“Drink more of Meng Po’s soup before you reincarnate and forget your previous life.”

Qi Yuan hurriedly agreed. “Senior, don’t worry. I don’t mind drinking a few more bowls.”

“Fellow Daoist, rest.” Goddess Houtu, the Lady of Earth said warmly, “When he comes next time, you can reincarnate.”

“Thank you, Lady of Earth, for your guidance.”

“Yes.”

The Lady of Earth answered gently. Her figure dissipated with the wind and disappeared.
