Even if the Demon Race couldn't defeat Tongtian Cult Master, Tongtian Cult Master could use force to directly snatch the Heavenly Emperor's throne!

But what about Empress Nuwa?

Don't forget, Empress Nuwa is behind the Demon Race!

Empress Nuwa is the Wa Empress of the Demon Race!

If he truly snatched the Heavenly Emperor's throne by force, Empress Nuwa would likely show up in an instant...

Thinking of this, Tongtian Cult Master felt a headache coming on.

"Teacher, your words seem a bit too bold, don't you think?" Yunxiao looked at Tongtian Cult Master with a helpless expression and a bitter smile.

Ever since she became Tongtian Cult Master's disciple, she had never seen him in such a predicament!

Calming himself, Tongtian Cult Master looked at Yunxiao and asked, "Then what about the rest?"

"Teacher, you need to take it easy and stay calm..." Yunxiao looked at Tongtian Cult Master and said with a bitter smile, "Teacher, the materials needed to refine the Human Path require... require Empress Nuwa's Human Creation Whip..."

"Human Creation Whip? This..."

Tongtian Cult Master almost choked on his own saliva upon hearing this. His old face turned red with anger, and he exclaimed in exasperation, "Hmph, that rebellious disciple truly dares to think! How am I supposed to find these things? This, this, this..."

"They didn't ask you to find them yourself..."

Yunxiao muttered inwardly.

Tongtian Cult Master took a deep breath, trying hard to calm his emotions. He looked at Yunxiao and continued to ask, "What else?"

"Teacher, for the next Hell Path, you need to be careful..." Yunxiao looked at Tongtian Cult Master with a bitter smile and said, "Teacher, that Hell Path, the Hell Path..."

"What about the Hell Path? What materials are needed?"

Tongtian Cult Master pressed.

"Teacher, I don't dare to say, I'm afraid your heart can't take it..." Yunxiao took a deep breath and looked at Tongtian Cult Master with pity. "Teacher, Senior Brother Li Xiao said... said that the Hell Path corresponds to the Earthly Dao, and it needs to be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao. As for the Heavenly Dao, it naturally belongs to our Grandmaster. It requires something from our Grandmaster..."

Pfft...

Tongtian Cult Master almost spat out a mouthful of blood upon hearing this.

Damn it!

Empress Nuwa was one thing, Tongtian Cult Master could always exchange something with her!

But what about the Dao Ancestor?

Was he going to steal from the Dao Ancestor? And more importantly, could he even defeat the Dao Ancestor?

This is difficult...

Tongtian Cult Master finally managed to calm himself down. He stared at Yunxiao with wide eyes, shocked and angry. "The Dao Ancestor, this, this... What else does this rebellious disciple want? This, this, this... What am I supposed to do? This, this, this..."

At this moment, Tongtian Cult Master was so shocked that he was speaking incoherently, his tongue twisted, and he couldn't even speak properly!

Yunxiao looked at Tongtian Cult Master helplessly and muttered, "Teacher, you asked me to say it..."

Tongtian Cult Master was speechless. He sat on the cloud bed, his chest heaving violently, almost exploding with anger. "Rebellious disciple, rebellious disciple! How is he going to mess around with these things? Even if other things can be obtained, how can we get the Dao Ancestor's things? This method of his won't work, it won't work..."

"Teacher, calm down, calm down..."

Yunxiao said helplessly with a bitter smile.

Tongtian Cult Master took a deep breath, smoothed his chest, and looked at Yunxiao with annoyance. "What else? For the remaining Hungry Ghost Path, Asura Path, and Beast Path, what materials are needed?"

"The Hungry Ghost Path requires Buddhism's Eight Treasures Merit Pool. Oh, right, Senior Brother Li Xiao said that the Western Sect is the future Buddhism..."

Yunxiao quickly added.

"The Western Sect is the future Buddhism?"

Tongtian Cult Master's old face twitched fiercely. His eyes flickered, and he muttered, "Hmph, I didn't expect Duobao to have joined the Western Sect. This truly makes me..."

He paused, then looked up at Yunxiao again and asked, "The Asura Path, does it require something from Ancestor Minghe?"

Although Tongtian Cult Master didn't mention the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, Yunxiao could imagine how difficult it would be to obtain the water from it!

Legend had it that the Eight Treasures Merit Pool was a rare treasure refined by the two Saints of the Western Sect with millions of years of their savings, and it could suppress the destiny of the Western Sect.

If Tongtian Cult Master were to take such a thing, the two leaders of the Western Sect would likely fight him to the death!

Yunxiao nodded and looked at Tongtian Cult Master. "That's right, it requires the Asura Stele from Ancestor Minghe's Nether River Palace!"

Tongtian Cult Master nodded, his eyes gleaming. He muttered, "This one isn't too difficult..."

The reason it wasn't difficult!

At worst, Tongtian Cult Master could directly go and snatch Ancestor Minghe's item!

After all, Ancestor Minghe had always stayed hidden in the Sea of Blood and hadn't gotten involved with other forces. Even if Tongtian Cult Master snatched his item, Ancestor Minghe would probably just have to endure it and curse Tongtian Cult Master behind his back!

Yunxiao looked at Tongtian Cult Master and said with a bitter smile, "Then the final Beast Path corresponds to the Demon Race, and it requires the Demon Master Kunpeng's Demon Mark Golden Pillar!"

"Demon Mark Golden Pillar? This..."

Tongtian Cult Master rubbed his temples, feeling quite troubled.

The Demon Mark Golden Pillar is a treasured item of Demon Master Kunpeng. If Tongtian Cult Master were to acquire it, given Demon Master Kunpeng's temperament, he would undoubtedly lodge a complaint at Empress Nuwa's palace. By then, Empress Nuwa might not be able to avoid intervening.

This is troublesome!

The materials for the Six Paths of Reincarnation are each more demanding and difficult to obtain than the last, even stumping Tongtian Cult Master, a great Saint!

"Teacher, if there's nothing else, this disciple will take his leave!"

Yunxiao said, bowing to Tongtian Cult Master after he remained silent for a long while.

"Go ahead!"

Tongtian Cult Master said faintly.

Yunxiao bowed to Tongtian Cult Master again, then turned and walked out of Biyou Palace.

After leaving the palace, Yunxiao heard Tongtian Cult Master muttering.

"This brat is always giving this humble Taoist difficult tasks. These six items, each harder than the last, how am I supposed to get them? This humble Taoist certainly doesn't have the ability. If that brat has the ability, then this humble Taoist will call him Teacher..."

Teacher, don't speak too soon. What if Senior Brother Li Xiao really brings back these six supreme treasures? After all, Teacher, you thought obtaining the Jade Purity Artifact Refining Manual was as difficult as ascending to heaven before, but Senior Brother Li Xiao still managed to get it... Yunxiao gave a wry smile, left Biyou Palace, and returned to Three Immortal Island.

Meanwhile, on Mount Kunlun.

The Immortals of the Heavenly Origin Sect were gathered.

It was another day for Primordial Heavenly Venerate to give his sermon, and all the immortals had assembled.

The immortals arrived at Jade Void Palace and took their seats.

After a moment, the figure of Primordial Heavenly Venerate slowly appeared, reclining on a cloud bed. Profound light emanated from his body, and auspicious clouds flickered. Melodious Daoist sounds arose, making Primordial Heavenly Venerate appear ethereal and lofty.

"Greetings, Teacher!"

The Immortals of the Heavenly Origin Sect hastily bowed.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate lightly raised his hands, gesturing for them to rise, and said, "You may rise!"

The immortals got up.

Just as Primordial Heavenly Venerate was about to begin his sermon, he suddenly noticed that Immortal Elder Nanji and Yunzhongzi had unusual expressions. Upon closer inspection, he saw that both were seriously injured, and his brow furrowed. "Nanji, Yunzhongzi, why are you two injured?"

Immortal Elder Nanji and Yunzhongzi quickly stood up.

They exchanged a glance, not daring to hide anything from Primordial Heavenly Venerate, and recounted their bet with Li Xiao.

Upon hearing this, Primordial Heavenly Venerate's old face immediately darkened. He was secretly shocked, How did that scoundrel Li Xiao know which individuals I would appoint as the Twelve Golden Immortals? How could he be so certain that Immortal Elder Nanji and Yunzhongzi would not be selected?

Could he possibly divine my intentions?

This is impossible!

Primordial Heavenly Venerate was both shocked and enraged. He looked up at Immortal Elder Nanji and Yunzhongzi, gritting his teeth, "You two scoundrels! The secret teachings of my Jade Void Palace were leaked by you like this! You... you've angered this humble Taoist to death!"

As he spoke, Primordial Heavenly Venerate waved his sleeve, and two streams of light shot out, striking Immortal Elder Nanji and Yunzhongzi.

"Ugh..."

The two staggered and vomited a mouthful of old blood.

Ignoring their injuries, they hastily prostrated themselves on the ground, begging for mercy, "Teacher, please calm your anger, Teacher, please calm your anger..."

"Calm my anger? How can this humble Taoist calm his anger?"

Primordial Heavenly Venerate trembled with rage. He glared fiercely at Immortal Elder Nanji and Yunzhongzi, then his figure flickered and he vanished.

Clearly, Primordial Heavenly Venerate was going to seek revenge on Li Xiao!

Someone like Primordial Heavenly Venerate, who could not tolerate even the slightest offense, would naturally not allow his disciples to be humiliated!

In the later Investiture of the Gods War, Primordial Heavenly Venerate repeatedly attacked younger disciples, so this was not an unusual occurrence!

The next moment, Primordial Heavenly Venerate appeared above Penglai Immortal Island.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate saw that Penglai Immortal Island was enveloped in auspicious energy, radiating colorful light, and the spiritual energy was so dense it was outrageous. There was even a legendary spiritual spring.

"This Chaos Three Immortal Island truly lives up to its reputation. It is indeed a rare immortal blessed land..."

Even Primordial Heavenly Venerate could not help but praise it.

But the more it was like this, the angrier Primordial Heavenly Venerate became!

Why does that brat Li Xiao occupy such a prime location?

Primordial Heavenly Venerate's anger surged to his head. He shouted in a deep voice, "You little beast, get out here and face this humble Taoist!"

Who is this 'little beast' calling me? Li Xiao was teasing Dragon Girl Ao Li when he heard Primordial Heavenly Venerate's voice. He felt indignant but didn't dare to confront Primordial Heavenly Venerate directly.

Tongtian Cult Master hasn't arrived yet!

If I enrage Primordial Heavenly Venerate, I might be slapped to death by him?

Li Xiao trotted out of Penglai Immortal Island and saw Primordial Heavenly Venerate. He grinned and cupped his hands in greeting, "Oh my, it's Second Martial Uncle gracing us with your presence! This disciple is truly remiss in not welcoming you properly. Please forgive my oversight, Second Martial Uncle!"

"Hmph, you scoundrel! How did you cheat my Jade Void Palace's supreme treasure?"
