Four Saints Ganging Up? Tongtian: Second Brother Isn't That Kind of Person... Right?

Zhou Ming looked at him and slowly shook his head. His calm demeanor, however, made Heavenly Heart uneasy.

"Fellow Daoist, you've got it exactly backwards."

"If your Interception Sect weren't so powerful, perhaps it would have been possible to safely weather this Tribulation."

"But it's precisely because your Jie Interception Sect is so powerful, with so many disciples and such peak strength."

"Therefore, the possibility that your Interception Sect will safely survive this Tribulation is almost zero."

These words surprised not only Tongtian Sect Master, but also Houtu, who had been listening silently to the side.

Strength, ironically, becomes a path to death?

What utterly absurd remarks!

The Tongtian Sect Master almost thought he had misheard, and he couldn't help but let out a sneer.

However, the laughter lacked its usual carefree spirit and instead sounded somewhat stiff.

Why would you say that, fellow Daoist?

"Isn't it a good thing that our Interception Sect is powerful?"

Why would you say... the possibility of surviving this Tribulation is almost zero?

Zhou Ming did not answer directly, but instead asked a question in return.

"Fellow Daoist, once the Tribulation begins, the Clarify Sect and the Interception Sect will inevitably clash; this is something that cannot be avoided no matter what."

Tongtian nodded; he was naturally aware of this.

With Primordial Lord being so aggressive and determined to get his Jie Sect Disciple listed, there was absolutely no way this matter could be resolved peacefully.

Sooner or later, the two religions will have a showdown.

"Then do you think, fellow Daoist, that the Clarify Sect is strong enough to defeat your Interception Sect?" Zhou Ming asked again.

This question brought a hint of pride to the face of the Tongtian Sect Master.

He answered without hesitation.

"We definitely can't win."

"My second brother's disciples, though all possessing profound roots and considerable good fortune, pride themselves on being Orthodox Daoist Sect."

"But in terms of true strength, they are far inferior to my disciples."

"Whether in terms of the number of disciples or top-tier combat power, my Interception Sect far surpasses his Clarify Sect."

"If they truly fight without restraint, the Clarify Sect will undoubtedly be defeated!"

This is the source of his confidence and self-assurance.

The arrival of Ten Thousand Immortals Paying Homage to the Interception Sect is no empty boast!

"Yes," Zhou Ming sighed softly.

"Fellow Daoist, you yourself know that the Clarify Sect is no match for your Interception Sect."

"So, do you think Primordial Lord wouldn't know?"

Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Master's expression suddenly froze.

yes.

He himself knew this, so how could Primordial Lord not know it?

Zhou Ming continued.

"Since he knew his disciples couldn't win, he didn't want them to be Investiture of the Gods on the Investiture of the Gods to face their tribulations."

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think he will do?"

"Fellow Daoist, do you think your disciples can survive the machinations of a Saint?"

The Tongtian Sect Master remained silent for a moment, then Surrounding Body sword intent solidified, revealing the domineering aura of Saint.

"If he dares to disregard the dignity of the Saint, bully the weak, and personally attack my disciples, I will stop him!"

"I'd like to see what he's capable of, to try and outmaneuver my disciple!"

"The conflict between our Interception Sect and his Clarify Sect should be a fair contest, based on the individual abilities of our disciples. This is the only right way!"

In his view, Saint should have the dignity of Saint.

The Saint checked and balanced each other, while their disciples relied on their own opportunities and abilities to face the tribulations.

This is the demeanor that Orthodox Daoist Sect should possess.

Zhou Ming looked at him, with an inexplicable emotion flashing in his eyes, which seemed to be pity and emotion.

"A Saint is certainly not someone you can stop, fellow Daoist."

"But what if it were two people?"

"Or even... four?"

"Fellow Daoist, can you still stop him?"

The Tongtian Sect Master was shocked and looked at Zhou Ming in disbelief.

"Four Saint?"

He instinctively retorted.

"Are you joking, fellow Daoist?"

"This Tribulation is Killing Tribulation for our Mystic Gate, and it mainly affects our Clarify Sect and Interception Sect."

"In the end, it's just a struggle between me and Primordial Lord. How could it involve four Saint?"

"How could there possibly be four Saint attacking my Interception Sect?"

He spoke with absolute certainty, as if he were trying to persuade Zhou Ming, or perhaps he was trying to persuade himself.

When he said those words, he already had some bad feelings about it.

But he was unwilling to believe it, or rather, he dared not believe it.

Would Primordial Lord go to such lengths to win?

Zhou Ming seemed to see right through him, ruthlessly shattering his last illusions.

"The Two Saints of the West have always wanted to greatly promote the West, but they have not had the opportunity."

"Now that the Eastern Xuanmen is in turmoil and Tribulation is approaching, do you think they would let such a good opportunity slip by?"

"Do you think they might take this opportunity to come to the East, try to get a share of the profits, and rob us?"

Zhou Ming's words left the Tongtian Sect Master speechless.

Based on his understanding of those two guys, Jieyin Zhunti, they were absolutely capable of doing such a thing.

Zhou Ming continued.

"Primordial Lord wanted to protect his disciples from the Clarify Sect, but he was no match for your Interception Sect."

"The Two Saints of the West intend to come to the East to guide those with affinity and strengthen the Western Teachings."

"But I'm also afraid of acting without a legitimate reason and incurring public wrath."

"One doesn't want his own disciple to die, the other wants someone else's disciple."

"Fellow Daoist, do you think they might hit it off and get together?"

"To join forces against you, the strongest sect with the most disciples, the Interception Sect?"

"After all, as long as we defeat your Interception Sect, Primordial Lord's Clarify Sect will be safe and sound, and his disciples will be saved."

"And your Interception Sect's disciples, who are known as ' Ten Thousand Immortals Paying Homage,' are perfect for the Western Teachings to convert to their fullest potential!"

Pangu Hall, there was a deathly silence.

The Tongtian Sect Master stood there dumbfounded, unable to utter a single word.

He's not stupid.

The scenario Zhou Ming described was one he had never dared to think about, nor was he willing to.

After all, the Three Pure Ones are one.

They are the transformations of Pangu's Primordial Spirit, the most authentic Xuanmen Mystic Gate in this Primordial Wilderness, brothers connected by blood!

Although they had separated, the affection he felt for his family remained in his heart.

Even though he and Primordial Lord had a major argument over the Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods at the Purple Cloud Palace this time.

But all he could think of was that the disciples of the two sects would compete based on their own abilities during the Tribulation, with the winner going free and the loser being listed on the leaderboard.

He never entertained the idea of joining forces with outsiders to deal with his second brother.

Therefore, he subconsciously believed that Primordial Lord would never do such a thing.

He had considered that his Eldest Brother, Taiqing, might favor Primordial Lord, since the two of them were closer.

But so what?

He possesses the Immortal Execution Sword Formation; unless Four Saints arrive simultaneously, he fears no one!

But now, Zhou Ming is telling him that the Primordial Lord is in league with outsiders.

By uniting with the two Western Teachings who have always coveted the East, and gathering four Saint, we can break his Immortal Execution Sword Formation and destroy his Interception Sect!

How could he possibly accept this!

"Impossible!"

The Tongtian Sect Master shook his head violently, as if trying to convince himself.

"Absolutely impossible!"

"We are the Pangu Orthodox, the Three Pure Ones as one!"

"No matter what kind of Primordial Lord is, there's absolutely no way he would join forces with those two outsiders, Jieyin Zhunti, to deal with me!"

Seeing Tongtian's stubborn and unrepentant attitude, Zhou Ming could only sigh.

This Tongtian is truly laughably naive.

At a time like this, why are you still clinging to that vague and ethereal concept of "the unity of the Three Pure Ones"?

You three brothers have already separated and gone your separate ways, each establishing your own sect and vying for Fortune. What's the point of talking about being one?

Do you really think that the bond between you three brothers can compare to the friendship between the thirteen siblings of my Wu Clan, who have weathered countless storms and shared life and death together?

However, Zhou Ming could understand.

After all, that was the Elder Brother he once respected the most.

Although Zhou Ming scoffed at the brotherhood between the Three Pure Ones that had long since become a mere formality.

But at this moment, he must shatter his Tongtian fantasies and face reality.

Only in this way can Tongtian gain his trust.

Only in this way will Tongtian be the first to seek his help when Tongtian is truly in dire straits.

Only then can he obtain what he wants.

With this in mind, Zhou Ming decided to add fuel to the fire.

"Fellow Daoist, I know it's hard for you to believe."

"Perhaps, it's simply because the Clarify Sect can't Interception Sect."

"This is still not enough to make Primordial Lord completely abandon his Saint dignity and the pride of being the Pangu Orthodox, and join forces with Jieyin and Zhunti."

Upon hearing this, Tongtian breathed a slight sigh of relief and immediately nodded.

"That's right! Although my second brother is protective of his own, he still has his pride!"

"But..."

A mysterious smile appeared on Zhou Ming's face.

"What if there are other reasons besides this?"

"What I am saying to you today is not based on mere speculation."

"But there is a basis for it."

The Tongtian Sect Master's heart jumped instantly, and he almost blurted out the question urgently.

What is the basis for this?
