If it were my usual temperament, I would certainly suppress you for several epochs, leaving you to drift eternally within the cycle of reincarnation!

Does the Western Teachings not preach cultivating the present life to seek the next?

Believe it or not, I shall ensure you seek it for all eternity and never attain it!

The Two Sages of the West truly felt the killing intent in the words of Pingxin!

The primordial spirits of Jieyin and Zhunti trembled, thinking: The Reincarnation Saint actually possesses such capability!

They were terrified beyond words!

Pingxin smiled slightly, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation seemed to experience a spring thaw, glowing with renewed light.

If I do not punish you for causing such a ruckus here, I fear the other saints will look down upon me!

Without waiting for the two to beg for mercy, she threw a punch.

Three thousand Great Dao laws vanished into smoke beneath the force of her fist!

Bang!

This punch sent the two saints flying directly out of the Netherworld Realm!

With a thunderous roar, the Netherworld Realm shook.

The corners of Pingxin's mouth curled up, feeling satisfied.

It was only fitting that these two unlucky fellows arrived to help her establish her authority!

With this, she should no longer need to personally intervene in the affairs of the Netherworld Realm.

Very good!

Pingxin nodded and returned to the high platform to sit down.

Her thoughts were no longer on those two unlucky fellows from the Netherworld Realm.

I owe fellow Daoist Tongtian a favor; after all, it was he who personally delivered the entrustment of Great God Lin Dong.

I owe even more Karma to Great God Lin Dong; if not for him, I would hardly be where I am today!

Pingxin calculated to herself:

I must find an opportunity to visit fellow Daoist Tongtian and ask him to introduce me to Great God Lin Dong.

Very well, I shall wait until this Immeasurable Calamity concludes!

She stared at the golden, shimmering Vajra Bracelet in her hand, lost in thought.

A Chaos Spirit Treasure is truly extraordinary!

Without this treasure, even if I were eight minor realms higher, it would be difficult to suppress two saints.

Pingxin chuckled silently.

She did not care how those two unlucky fellows fared outside.

She had specifically reinforced the durability of the Netherworld Realm.

Those two saints would not be able to damage it in the slightest!

The methods of the Reincarnation Saint shocked the Four Saints of the Mystic Gate.

In the Wa Imperial Palace on Buzhou Mountain, Nuwa covered her face and laughed.

She had never seen Jieyin and Zhunti in such a sorry state!

The dignified Western Sages, tossed out like pieces of trash!

It was simply hilarious!

Saint Pingxin, well done!

Nuwa felt moved, wishing to find an opportunity to meet with the Reincarnation Saint and consult her on the difficulties of the Dao.

It is decided!

In Biyou Palace, the Three Pure Ones shook their heads and chuckled.

Tongtian said softly, "This is the first time I have seen these two fellow Daoists lose face without doing it to themselves."

Taishang was speechless.

Yuanshi, however, shook his head: "Has Junior Brother forgotten? During the Investiture of the Gods discussions, you swept your sword, and Zhunti lost all face."

Tongtian disagreed: "That is different!"

That time, only Zhunti lost face.

Now, both of the Western Sages have made a fool of themselves!

The Three Pure Ones laughed in unison!

Yuanshi laughed particularly heartily.

If not for Tongtian holding him back, he would have already descended upon the Six Paths of Reincarnation to teach the Western Sages a lesson!

How sacred is the Six Paths of Reincarnation?

How could the Western heterodox sects ever hope to lay a finger on it?

Yuanshi still held a grudge to this day.

Not being able to personally settle the score with the Two Sages of the West remained a source of displeasure!

However, the outcome was acceptable!

Yuanshi laughed: "Those two, I fear they have no other options left... eh?"

Taishang and Tongtian looked at Yuanshi in confusion.

Yuanshi frowned: "Look, what are the Two Sages of the West doing?"

Taishang and Tongtian were stunned.

They had assumed that after such a loss of face, the Two Sages of the West would have returned to Mount Sumeru.

But with a sweep of their Dharma Eye, the Three Pure Ones were rendered speechless.

Before Jieyin and Zhunti, there was actually a powerful figure kneeling!

Looking closely, it was none other than the current leader of the Demon Sect, Old Ancestor Minghe!

What on earth was going on here?

When Pingxin had sent the Two Sages of the West flying with a single punch.

Even with faces as thick as city walls, Jieyin and Zhunti felt they had lost all dignity!

It was too embarrassing!

They were indeed known throughout the Primordial Era for their shamelessness.

But their shamelessness was always for the sake of profit.

If there was no massive return, they would naturally maintain their lofty status!

But just now, did Pingxin give them any room to choose?

A single punch had sent two Sages flying!

What was terrifying was that they hadn't even been able to dodge!

Even more terrifying was that Pingxin's punch had actually left a mark on their faces!

No matter what spells they used, they could not erase it!

They were in trouble now!

The two were just about to leave and return to Mount Sumeru.

Yet, unexpectedly, the place they landed was the Boundless Sea of Blood!

Because the commotion was so great, yet it hadn't damaged the Sea of Blood in the slightest...

Old Ancestor Minghe, curious, poked his head out to look.

That one look caused a massive disaster!

He had actually seen two Sages!

Under normal circumstances, this would be a supreme opportunity.

But as it happened...

Minghe was shocked to discover that the two Sages' faces were covered in bruises!

A bolt from the blue!

Minghe immediately knelt to the ground!

Never mind Minghe, even the Two Sages of the West were dumbfounded!

Their unsightly state had actually been seen by an outsider!

Where was the face of a Sage?

Where was their dignity?

Gone, completely gone!

They could even feel the gazes of the Four Saints of the Mystic Gate!

They had embarrassed themselves to the extreme!

How could they ever face the other Sages again?

Their reputation was utterly ruined!

Minghe knelt on the ground, the dignified leader of the Demon Sect, panicking!

He never imagined he would run into the beaten Two Sages of the West in the Netherworld Realm!

He had seen their unsightly state!

The reputation of the Two Sages of the West in the Primordial Era was known to everyone!

Minghe's mind was buzzing!

He was afraid!

He was scared to death!

Thoughts surged within his Primordial Spirit Sea of Consciousness:

Would the two Sages strike him dead with a single palm?

He had only wanted to patrol the Sea of Blood!

This was just too unlucky!

Was he truly going to perish and have his soul scattered?

Minghe let his imagination run wild.

The Two Sages of the West were also indecisive.

The two exchanged a glance, their minds instantly aligned.

Zhunti spoke in a gentle tone: "Fellow Daoist, you have an affinity with our West!"

Minghe was stunned, his subconscious reaction to refuse.

Are you kidding me?

Who would want to go to that tiny Mount Sumeru?

It wasn't even as good as his own Boundless Sea of Blood!

He was living perfectly well as a Sect Leader; why would he want to join the Western Teachings and invite two masters to boss him around for no reason?

Wasn't that just asking for trouble?

Before the refusal could leave his lips, Minghe caught a glimpse of Zhunti's gaze.

His heart instantly turned cold!

That gaze was indifferent, icy, and ruthless.

Minghe understood that if he dared to refuse, what awaited him was death and the scattering of his soul!

There was no other way!

Who told him to witness the unsightly state of the Two Sages of the West?

Blaspheming a Sage was an unforgivable crime!

Minghe made a prompt decision, gritting his teeth as he said: "This disciple is willing to convert to the West! Minghe pays respects to the two Sages!"

Zhunti laughed loudly: "From this day forward, you shall be the third-ranking figure in the Western Teachings, right below my junior brother and me!"

Minghe forced a smile, though he felt like crying inside.

Just as the Two Sages of the West were feeling smug, a voice arrived:

"If you dare to plant spies within the Asura clan, I will smash your Mount Sumeru to pieces!"

Pingxin's warning abruptly cut off the Sages' laughter!

In the past, they certainly wouldn't have taken it to heart.

But now...

Glancing at the bruises on each other's faces, how could they not take it seriously?

That was a Sage of the Heavenly Dao Realm whose cultivation far exceeded their own!

She was a supreme existence who had crushed them single-handedly, leaving them with no power to fight back!

Jieyin and Zhunti were not afraid of Pingxin.

As fellow Heavenly Dao Sages, what did a little loss of face matter?

But Pingxin was different!

The Western Teachings emphasized Karma and reincarnation.

Yet, the Six Paths of Reincarnation were controlled by Pingxin!

If they offended her, could the Western Teachings ever fare well?

Furthermore, the Investiture of the Gods calamity was approaching; how could the two of them dare to incur more Karma?

But this was not the main point.

Being beaten by Pingxin and losing face in front of the other Sages was still acceptable.

The real trouble was that Minghe had happened to witness it!

With the wisdom of Sages, they instantly thought of a countermeasure—recruit Minghe into the Western Teachings!

Minghe was not alone!

He was the leader of the Demon Sect, with countless demonic followers under his command.

The Western Teachings didn't need to annex the entire Demon Sect—that would invite disaster, as the Primordial Era could not exist without demons.

But if Minghe carefully selected a portion of them, it would be a supreme force in the Primordial Era!

He governed the Asura race, which perfectly aligned with one of the Six Paths of Reincarnation!

In this way, the Western Teachings could indirectly control a portion of the authority over reincarnation!

It could be called perfect!

Moreover, Minghe was a peak Quasi-Saint.

Although the Western Teachings had recruited many new disciples, they lacked a leader.

Minghe was precisely the best candidate!

That was why Zhunti had tried to recruit Minghe.

Otherwise, he would have slapped him to death long ago!

It was a move that achieved multiple goals; it was simply marvelous!

But before the Two Sages of the West could rejoice, Empress Pingxin pierced through their schemes with a single sentence and even issued a warning!

It was like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads!

Under Minghe's astonished gaze, Zhunti said respectfully, "I shall obey the Empress's decree!"

Minghe nearly fell apart!

What was going on?

Empress?

Could it be Empress Pingxin of the Six Paths of Reincarnation?

Minghe couldn't help but ask for guidance: "Sage... what was that just now..."

He pointed toward the direction of the reincarnation cycle.

Zhunti nodded solemnly: "Fellow Daoist Minghe, you must use an honorific!"

Minghe gasped in shock!

Regret surged into his heart like a tide!

He suddenly realized that the Two Sages of the West had likely been defeated by Empress Pingxin!

Otherwise, why would they be so cautious?

These were the supreme beings of the West, the Sages of the Primordial Era!

If he had known this earlier...

He should have built a good relationship with Sage Pingxin!

After all, the Asura race was one of the Six Paths!

But now, what was the use of saying these things?

There was no medicine for regret in this world!
