Disciples of the Three Teachings Descend the Mountain, the Diary Speaks of Kong Xuan and Six-Ears!

Li Yuan came back to his senses and thought to himself.

It seems Master and the others have returned from their meeting at the Purple Cloud Palace.

My clone can stay in the cave dwelling and keep writing the diary. I need to hurry to the Eight Scenery Palace.

The moment he stepped outside, he ran into Xuandu.

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

"Junior Brother, you... Huh? You broke through to the late Mystic Immortal stage?"

"Yes, Senior Brother. I merely got lucky. Let's hurry to the Eight Scenery Palace so we do not delay."

"By the way, Master left earlier, then summoned the disciples to the Eight Scenery Palace as soon as he returned. What could this be about?"

"It must be about the Witch-Demon Calamity. Things beyond Kunlun Mountain are so chaotic. I just hope we are not sent down the mountain."

Before long, Li Yuan and Xuandu arrived at the Eight Scenery Palace and took their seats.

Li Yuan cast a fleeting glance back, making Ju Liusun and the other three tremble all over.

That aura of authority from their senior brother had them completely cowed.

Ju Liusun, Manjushri, Cihang, and Puxian exchanged glances, communicating through divine sense.

"Senior Brother Li's gaze just now was truly terrifying."

"Fortunately, Senior Brother's guidance kept us from going astray, and we even turned misfortune into fortune."

"Exactly, exactly. Master even gave us private instruction. This is wonderful."

"Once we get the chance, we should perform well before Senior Brother Li and let him see that we have sincerely reformed."

"Agreed x3!"

Before long, the disciples of the Three Teachings had all gathered in the Eight Scenery Palace.

Laozi sat in the seat of honor and spoke calmly.

"Beyond Kunlun Mountain, the Witches and Demons are fighting for supremacy over the Primordial World, seeking to recreate the tragedy of the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation."

"After much deliberation, we have decided to send you down the mountain to resolve the conflict between the Witches and Demons. It will also serve as training."

"You need not worry for your safety. We will secretly assist you, but ultimately, you must rely on yourselves."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Yuan sighing with a face full of despair.

Resolve the conflict between the Witches and Demons?

Even a Sage would have a hard time doing that!

At the same time, the diary had already begun complaining.

Laozi's clone in a side hall of the Eight Scenery Palace held the diary without putting it down.

It felt like sending Benbo'erba to deal with Tang Sanzang and his disciples. The Demon Court is overbearing, the Witch Race is brainless, and neither side listens to reason. How are they supposed to reconcile?

Laozi also furrowed his brow slightly. He had initially believed the Witch-Demon conflict still had room for mediation.

Yet after seeing Li Yuan's diary, he suddenly felt it would be extremely difficult.

"Could it be that the Witches and Demons are destined to throw the Primordial World into chaos and leave all living beings suffering?"

There is a way to reconcile the conflict between the Witches and Demons, but the time is not yet ripe. We will take it one step at a time.

A gratified smile instantly appeared on Laozi's face.

"This daoist knew Li Yuan would have a solution. He always comes up with something new."

Back in the Eight Scenery Palace, Yuanshi and Tongtian casually added a few more remarks.

"You disciples of the Three Teachings must support one another. Do not allow discord to arise among you."

"If anyone attacks a fellow disciple, do not blame this daoist for personally purging the sect!"

Tongtian's words carried a sharpness like sword intent.

The disciples of the Three Teachings all shrank their necks and hurriedly voiced their agreement.

In the end, Laozi continued speaking calmly.

"After descending the mountain, avoid needless killing whenever possible. Those among you who know each other well may descend together to reduce danger and strengthen your bonds. Go."

Li Yuan sighed gloomily and thought to himself.

So they really are free-range chickens. They are just sending us down the mountain like this.

Smack—

Someone suddenly patted his shoulder. Li Yuan turned around and saw Xuandu, Guangchengzi, and Duobao approaching.

Xuandu's hand was still resting on his shoulder.

"Junior Brother, how about the four of us descend the mountain together?"

Guangchengzi and Duobao said nothing, though they were somewhat puzzled.

Why had their masters insisted that they accompany Li Yuan?

If you think this book is good, please remember to add it to your bookshelf so you do not lose it next time.

Still, they had an excellent relationship with Li Yuan, so they could not be bothered to think too much about it.

Li Yuan's eyes immediately lit up, and he agreed.

"Let's go, let's go down the mountain."

With this lineup, what else was there to say? The Chief Disciples of the Three Teachings were all here. The lineup was absolutely stacked.

Li Yuan and the Chief Disciples of the Three Teachings directly descended Kunlun Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, the four of them stared at one another, somewhat lost.

Guangchengzi looked around and sucked in a breath.

"Say... where are we going?"

Duobao said, "I have no idea. You said we were going down the mountain, so I followed."

We descended the mountain to travel, but now we are completely lost. We do not know where to go. Everyone says this is when we should look for Six-Ears and Kong Xuan.

Tongtian's clone in the Biyou Palace frowned deeply.

"Who are Six-Ears and Kong Xuan?"

"Could they be hidden great powers even this daoist does not know about?"

Kong Xuan has probably only just been born and is still at the Southern Blazing Undying Volcano. In the future, he will reach the peak of the Quasi-Sage realm, the strongest beneath the Sages. What a pity that he did not enter a Sage's lineage and instead became accomplished through self-study.

After Yuanshi's clone in the Jade Void Palace saw the words in the diary,

A brilliant light instantly flashed through his eyes.

Peak Quasi-Sage, strongest beneath the Sages, accomplished through self-study.

Damn it!

How could those words possibly form a complete sentence?

Yuanshi's face was full of smiles as he sighed endlessly.

"A peerless genius. This is a peerless genius! He ought to join my Exposition Sect."

Kong Xuan is the eldest legitimate son of First Phoenix of the Phoenix Race and commands the Innate Five Elements Qi. Logically, the Exposition Sect suits him best, but Second Martial Uncle does not like him.

Smack—!!!

Yuanshi slapped the diary onto the table and roared inwardly.

"Who says this daoist does not like him? This daoist likes him immensely. I absolutely love disciples like this."

"No, I cannot let other disciples get there first."

He raised a hand and sent out a jade slip, which landed before Li Yuan and the others.

"Since you have no destination, let me point out a path for you. The Witch-Demon conflict will not be easy to resolve."

"Why not seek a breakthrough from another angle? The Phoenix Race at the Southern Blazing Undying Volcano is one option. You may give it a try."

"Go..."

Li Yuan nodded slightly in complete agreement, thinking to himself.

Not bad, not bad. I can finally meet the strongest beneath the Sages, the one who will stir up the winds and clouds of the Primordial World.

The other three naturally had no objections, and they headed together for the Southern Blazing Undying Volcano.

Meanwhile, in the Biyou Palace, Tongtian kept pounding the table with loud bangs and wailing endlessly.

"I was only a tiny bit late! How did Second Brother get there first?"

"He was so lucky. He just happened to think of sending Li Yuan and the others to the Southern Blazing Undying Volcano."

Tongtian rose to his feet, determination flashing in his eyes.

"Since this Six-Ears was mentioned alongside Kong Xuan, he must not be some ordinary figure."

"This daoist is determined to get Six-Ears!"

At the same time, the true bodies of the Three Pure Ones were all in the Eight Scenery Palace, though the atmosphere was rather awkward.

Tongtian turned his head aside and sulked, unable to let the other two know.

Otherwise, the matter of the diary would be exposed.

Laozi suddenly asked.

"Southern Blazing Undying Volcano? How did Second Brother think of that place?"

Yuanshi sighed and answered with a solemn expression.

"On our way back from the Purple Cloud Palace, I saw the Phoenix Race clash with the Demon Race."

"I thought it would be a good opening, so I sent Li Yuan and the others to give it a try."

In the Biyou Palace, Tongtian continued pounding the table with loud bangs.

"Damn it, why did I not check the situation between the Witches and Demons in the Primordial World?"

"..."
