"They certainly wouldn't dare!"

The girl continued indignantly, "But now rumors are spreading all over the mountain, saying Senior Brother Duobao is the strongest prodigy in the Great Desolation, having comprehended three Saintly Daos at once. They also say that once Master and Martial Uncle attain their Dao, Senior Brother Duobao will be the foremost person under the Saints in the Great Desolation, comparable to the Demon Emperor and Ancestor Witches."

Bai Jin nodded and said, "If Master and Martial Uncle can successfully attain their Dao, then what they're saying isn't wrong." He then asked, "What else are they saying?"

"They've said a lot, a lot. They keep showing off in front of us, and they also say that once Master and Martial Uncle attain their Dao, Senior Brother Duobao will be a great contributor. You, Senior Brother, just tried to stop Master from attaining his Dao, so you're the great sinner. They say you'll definitely grovel to Senior Brother Duobao for forgiveness."

Bai Jin chuckled, "Me grovel to him?"

"Oh, and they also say Senior Brother Duobao has the potential to be a Saint. If he can obtain the Primordial Violet Qi, Senior Brother Duobao can also attain his Dao."

The girl looked at Bai Jin worriedly and said, "Senior Disciple Brother, do you think what they're saying might be true? What if Master and the two Martial Uncles really become Saints under Senior Brother Duobao's influence? Will Senior Brother Duobao suppress us?!"

Bai Jin asked, "What? Worried?"

The girl pouted, "Of course! Qiu Shou Xian and Ling Ya Xian are so bad, especially Ling Ya Xian, I really dislike him."

Bai Jin laughed heartily, "Don't worry! Elephants don't eat mushrooms."

The girl's eyes widened, and she looked at him in disbelief, "Senior Brother, how did you know my origins?"

Bai Jin couldn't help but reach out and touch the little bun on the girl's head that resembled a mushroom, smiling, "It's quite obvious already!"

The girl also reached up and touched the little bun on her head, suddenly realizing. She immediately vowed, "I'll change my hairstyle when I get back."

"No need to change, I think it's quite cute."

The girl giggled twice, then propped her chin on her hand and looked at Bai Jin, "Senior Brother, you don't seem nervous at all."

"What's there to be nervous about?"

"Aren't you afraid Master and Martial Uncle will really attain their Dao?"

"That's a good thing!"

The girl looked confused, "Senior Brother, I really don't understand you~ We're all very worried outside, but you seem completely unconcerned."

Bai Jin laughed heartily, "Tell them to stop worrying needlessly. Cultivating properly and comprehending the Dao with a calm mind is the true path."

"That same old line again!" The girl stood up and said, "Then I'm leaving!"

"No need to see me off~"

The girl skipped outwards, the little bun on her head bouncing along, very cute.

Bai Jin waved his hand, and the palace doors boomed shut. He floated up, sat on the bed, and continued to meditate with his eyes closed to heal his injuries.

Seven years later, a sudden anomaly occurred in heaven and earth. All immortals vaguely sensed three colossal energies rising simultaneously from three directions in the Great Desolation. The three Daos connected heaven and earth, as if three supreme beings were awakening.

On Mount Kunlun, Bai Jin, Holy Mother Wudang, Duobao, and others were immediately alarmed. They quickly left their palaces and soared into the sky, standing in the clouds and gazing towards the directions from which the three Daos were rising.

Duobao's eyes held a hint of excitement. Master and Martial Uncle were finally going to attain their Dao. My glorious immortal path was about to begin.

Holy Mother Wudang also looked expectantly in one direction. Could Master truly attain his Dao?

Bai Jin's heart skipped a beat. No way! Could it be that my arrival caused this anomaly? This situation looks so similar to before Empress Nuwa attained her Dao!

In the Western Pure Land world, Jieyin and Zhunti stood beneath the Bodhi Tree, their expressions grave. Connecting the Great Dao with the Heavenly Dao, did the Three Pure Ones have the confidence to become Saints?

Within the Thirty-three Heavens' Demon Court, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Dijun stood in the divine hall, looking solemnly at the three strands of Dao rhythm rising from the Great Desolation below. The Three Pure Ones are about to become Saints? They've come so quickly.

The Twelve Ancestor Witches also emerged from Pangu Hall, sensing the changes in heaven and earth. The Three Pure Ones are about to become Saints, and the era of Saints is about to begin.

Within the chaotic Wa Huang Heaven, Empress Nuwa sat on a cloud bed, looking down at the Great Desolation world. She shook her head slightly. Not enough~ This attempt to attain the Dao is destined to fail.

In the East Sea, Buzhou Mountain, and Mingqiong Snow Mountain, the three locations where the Daos rose, three dark clouds suddenly appeared. Within the dark clouds, three bolts of lightning struck simultaneously, purple lightning connecting heaven and earth.

All the mighty beings in the Great Desolation who were paying attention to this were greatly shocked. Purple Heaven Divine Thunder? Why would Purple Heaven Divine Thunder descend during the attainment of Dao?

Boom~ Three mushroom clouds rose from the Great Desolation.

The East Sea churned with monstrous waves. Countless sea demons and rogue immortals turned pale with terror and fled in panic.

The mountains around Buzhou Mountain trembled, and several surrounding peaks were reduced to ruins.

The Western lands rumbled incessantly.

On the summit of Mount Kunlun, Duobao stared blankly. How could this happen? What about the promised attainment of Dao? How did it turn into the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder?

Bai Jin covered his face with his sleeve, as if unable to bear watching. My poor Master and Martial Uncle~ His eyes rolled as he wiped away nonexistent tears and cried out sadly, "My Master! My Martial Uncle! Why did you fail to attain your Dao? Who is harming you? My disciple's heart aches so much..."

Duobao looked at Bai Jin, took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and turned to fly downwards. His heart was filled with unease and anxiety. How could it have become like this? He wished he could slap himself twice. Serves you right for speaking out of turn, serves you right.

Before, he had only seen Bai Jin effortlessly help Empress Nuwa attain her Dao. Not only did he gain Empress Nuwa's merit, but he also formed a great karma and successfully latched onto Empress Nuwa's thigh. It could be said that he instantly became a winner in life. He felt envious and had the idea of guiding Master and Martial Uncle, but he never expected the consequences of failed guidance. It looked so simple for Bai Jin! Wuwuwu~ He now wished he were dead.

In the Demon Court, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Dijun subconsciously relaxed, a smile appearing on their faces. Fortunately, the Three Pure Ones failed to become Saints, so we still have time.

The Twelve Ancestor Witches also felt a sense of relief. The appearance of one Saint, Nuwa, was already a major event. If the Three Pure Ones also became Saints, then we wouldn't have any standing.

Houtu spoke, "Brothers, I want to go out for a walk!"

Dijiang asked curiously, "Where to?"

"To the Human Race!"

Gonggong exclaimed in surprise, "The Human Race? The race created by Nuwa?"

Houtu nodded, "I want to see the Human Race. If possible, I hope the Wu Clan and the Human Race can form an alliance in the future."

Gonggong said dismissively, "That newborn, weak race, what qualifications do they have to ally with us?"

Houtu said seriously, "It's true that the Human Race is weak, but Empress Nuwa is above them. Currently, the Wu and Demon races are evenly matched. Whoever can gain Empress Nuwa's help will be able to unify the world."

Dijiang asked doubtfully, "Didn't Empress Nuwa already choose the Demon Race?"

"That's why we must strive to win over the Human Race now, and even protect them. As long as the Human Race is on our side, Empress Nuwa might change her mind."
