If I still had my old temperament, I would have suppressed you for several epochs and made you drift through reincarnation forever!
Didn't Western Teachings preach cultivating this life in pursuit of the next?
Believe it or not, I can make it so you'll never attain what you seek for all eternity!
The Two Sages of the West truly felt the killing intent in Pingxin's words!
Jieyin and Zhunti's primordial spirits trembled as they thought, The Reincarnation Saint truly possesses such power!
Their terror was beyond words!
Pingxin smiled faintly, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation seemed to welcome spring upon the earth, radiating brilliant light.
You caused trouble here. If I do not punish you, the other Saints may look down on me!
Before the two could beg for mercy, she threw a punch.
The laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos scattered into nothing beneath the force of her fist!
Bang!
That punch sent the two Saints flying straight out of the Six Paths of Reincarnation!
With a thunderous boom, the Netherworld Realm shook.
The corner of Pingxin's lips curled upward, thoroughly satisfied.
It was only right that these two unlucky fools had come to help her establish her authority!
This way, the Netherworld Realm would no longer need her to personally intervene.
Excellent!
Pingxin nodded and returned to her seat atop the platform.
Her thoughts were no longer on those two unlucky fools in the Netherworld Realm.
I owe Fellow Daoist Tongtian a favor. After all, he personally passed along Great God Lin Dong's request.
I owe Great God Lin Dong even more Karma. Without him, I likely would not have what I have today!
Pingxin silently considered:
I must find an opportunity to visit Fellow Daoist Tongtian and ask him to introduce me to Great God Lin Dong.
So be it. I will wait until this Immeasurable Calamity ends!
She stared absently at the gleaming golden Vajra Bracelet in her hand.
A Chaos Spirit Treasure truly was extraordinary!
Without this treasure, even if she were eight minor realms higher, she would have struggled to suppress two Saints.
Pingxin chuckled soundlessly.
She did not care what those two unlucky fools did outside.
She had deliberately reinforced the Netherworld Realm's defenses.
Those two Saints could forget about damaging even the slightest bit of it!
The Reincarnation Saint's methods stunned the Four Saints of the Mystic Gate.
Within Wa Imperial Palace on Buzhou Mountain, Nuwa covered her face and laughed.
She had never seen Jieyin and Zhunti in such a sorry state!
Dignified Western Saints, yet they had been tossed out like scraps of trash!
It was simply ridiculous!
Saint Pingxin, well done!
Nuwa was moved and wished to find an opportunity to meet with the Reincarnation Saint and seek her guidance on difficult matters of the Dao.
It was settled, then!
Within Biyou Palace, the Three Pure Ones shook their heads and laughed.
Tongtian said softly, "This is the first time I've seen those two fellow Daoists humiliate themselves without doing it voluntarily."
Taishang was speechless.
Yuanshi shook his head. "Have you forgotten? During the discussions over the Investiture of the Gods, one sweep of your sword left Zhunti utterly humiliated."
Tongtian was unconcerned. "That was different!"
Only Zhunti had lost face that time.
Now, both Sages of the West had made fools of themselves!
The Three Pure Ones burst into laughter together!
Yuanshi laughed especially heartily.
If Tongtian had not stopped him, he would have long since descended upon the Six Paths of Reincarnation to teach the Two Sages of the West a lesson!
How sacred were the Six Paths of Reincarnation?
How could Western heretics be allowed to lay their hands upon them?
Yuanshi still held a grudge over it.
Not being able to deal with the Two Sages of the West personally still displeased him!
Still, the outcome was acceptable!
Yuanshi laughed. "Those two probably have no options left now... Hm?"
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, having lost so much face, the Two Sages of the West would return to Mount Sumeru.
But with a sweep of their Dharma Eyes, the Three Pure Ones fell silent.
Before Jieyin and Zhunti, a mighty cultivator was actually kneeling!
Looking closely, it was none other than Minghe, the current Demon Sect Leader!
What exactly was going on?
When Pingxin's punch sent the Two Sages of the West flying,
even Jieyin and Zhunti, whose skins were as thick as city walls, felt utterly humiliated!
It was too embarrassing!
They were indeed known throughout the Primordial Era for their shamelessness.
But all their shamelessness was for the sake of profit.
Without immense returns, they naturally maintained lofty airs!
Yet just now, did Pingxin give them any choice?
One punch had sent two Saints flying!
What was terrifying was that they had been unable even to dodge!
Even more terrifyingly, Pingxin's single punch had left marks on their faces!
No matter what spell they used, they could not erase them!
This was troublesome!
The two were about to leave and return to Mount Sumeru.
Yet the place where they landed was actually the Boundless Sea of Blood!
Though the commotion had been enormous, it had not damaged the Sea of Blood in the slightest...
Ancestor Minghe had been curious and poked his head out for a look.
That single look brought disaster upon him!
He had actually seen two Saints!
Under normal circumstances, this would have been an unparalleled opportunity.
But unfortunately...
Minghe suddenly discovered that the two Saints' faces were covered in bruises!
It was like a bolt from the blue!
Minghe immediately dropped to his knees!
Not only Minghe—even the Two Sages of the West were dumbfounded!
An outsider had actually witnessed their disgraceful state!
Where was a Saint's dignity now?
Where was their honor?
It was all gone!
They could even sense the gazes of the Four Saints of the Mystic Gate!
They had utterly disgraced themselves!
How could they ever face the other Saints again?
Their reputation was completely ruined!
Minghe knelt on the ground. The dignified Demon Sect Leader had panicked!
He had never imagined that he would encounter the beaten Two Sages of the West in the Netherworld Realm!
He had seen their disgraceful appearance!
The Two Sages of the West's reputation in the Primordial Era was known to everyone!
Minghe's mind buzzed!
He was afraid!
Terrified to death!
Thought-forms surged through his Primordial Spirit Sea of Consciousness:
Would the two Saints slap me to death with a single palm strike?
I only wanted to inspect the Sea of Blood!
This was far too unlucky!
Could I really be about to perish completely?
Minghe's thoughts ran wild.
The Two Sages of the West were equally uncertain.
The two exchanged a glance, their thoughts instantly aligning.
Zhunti spoke gently. "Fellow Daoist, you are fated with the West!"
Minghe froze, instinctively wanting to refuse.
Was this a joke?
Who would want to go to that palm-sized Mount Sumeru?
It was not even comparable to his own Boundless Sea of Blood!
He was doing perfectly well as sect leader. Why should he join Western Teachings and gain two extra mothers-in-law for no reason?
Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Before the words of refusal could leave his mouth, Minghe caught sight of Zhunti's gaze.
His heart immediately turned cold!
That gaze was indifferent, icy, and merciless.
Minghe understood that if he dared refuse, only complete death awaited him!
There was no other path!
Who told him to witness the Two Sages of the West's disgraceful state?
Profaning Saints was an unforgivable crime!
Minghe made his decision at once and gritted his teeth. "This disciple is willing to convert to the West! Minghe pays respects to the two Saints!"
Zhunti laughed loudly. "From this day onward, you shall be the third most important figure in Western Teachings, beneath my senior brother and me!"
Minghe forced a smile, inwardly on the verge of tears.
Just as the Two Sages of the West were feeling pleased with themselves, a voice rang out:
"If you dare plant spies among the Asura, I'll smash Mount Sumeru!"
Pingxin's warning abruptly cut off the two Saints' laughter!
In the past, they certainly would not have taken it seriously.
But now...
After glancing at the bruises on each other's faces, how could they not take it seriously?
She was a Heavenly Dao Realm Saint whose cultivation far surpassed theirs!
She was also a supreme existence who had crushed them by herself until they could not fight back at all!
Jieyin and Zhunti were not afraid of Pingxin.
They were both Heavenly Dao Saints, so what if they lost face?
But Pingxin was different!
Western Teachings emphasized Karma and reincarnation.
Yet the Six Paths of Reincarnation were controlled by Pingxin!
If they offended her, could Western Teachings still prosper?
Moreover, with the calamity of the Investiture of the Gods approaching, how could the two dare accumulate more Karma?
Yet this was not the main point.
Being sent flying by Pingxin and losing face before the Saints was still bearable.
Being seen by Minghe was the real problem!
With Saintly wisdom, they instantly thought of a solution—bring Minghe into Western Teachings!
Minghe was not alone!
He was the Demon Sect Leader, with countless demonic followers beneath him.
Western Teachings did not need to annex the entire Demon Sect—that would invite disaster, for the Primordial Era could not exist without demons.
But if Minghe selected a portion of them, it would become an unparalleled force in the Primordial Era!
He governed the Asura clan, which was precisely one of the Six Paths!
Thus, Western Teachings could indirectly control part of the authority over reincarnation!
It was perfect!
Moreover, Minghe was a Peak Quasi-Saint.
Although Western Teachings had taken in many new disciples, it lacked a leader.
Minghe was the best candidate!
That was why Zhunti had recruited Minghe.
Otherwise, he would have slapped him to death long ago!
It achieved multiple goals at once—simply wonderful!
But before the Two Sages could rejoice, Empress Pingxin exposed their scheme with a single remark and warned them!
It was like cold water poured over their heads!
Under Minghe's astonished gaze, Zhunti said respectfully, "I shall obey Empress's decree!"
Minghe nearly broke down!
What was going on?
Empress?
Could that have been Empress Pingxin of the Six Paths of Reincarnation?
Minghe could not help asking, "Sage... that was...?"
He pointed in the direction of reincarnation.
Zhunti nodded solemnly. "Fellow Daoist Minghe, you must address her with proper respect!"
Minghe sucked in a sharp breath!
Regret surged through him 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 figures of the West, Saints of the Primordial Era!
Had he known earlier...
He should have built a good relationship with Empress Pingxin!
After all, the Asura clan was one of the Six Paths!
But what was the use of saying any of this now?
There was no medicine for regret in this world!
