Sanqing Halted the Battle, Grudges Temporarily Settled
Although Nuwa resented Jieyin and Zhunti, she also knew that the Western Teachings was recognized by Heaven and Earth.
She could neither harm Jieyin and Zhunti, nor sever the Western Daoist tradition.
If she were to actually do that, it would instantly incur a backlash from the heavens.
Although she intended to transcend the laws of nature, she could not do so at this moment.
From beginning to end, Nuwa never intended to kill the disciples of the Western Teachings; her goal was always Mount Sumeru.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Mount Sumeru, producing a deafening roar.
The already impoverished West was thus dealt another heavy blow.
The cultivators were also greatly shocked.
Even the fiercest battle was brought to a halt as a result.
This was Mount Sumeru, yet it was directly destroyed by Nuwa.
Everyone admired Nuwa's courage and domineering presence.
However, Jieyin and Zhunti will not give up easily.
"Nuwa, you've gone too far!"
The Merit Golden Lotus flashed and absorbed all the disciples into its magical treasure.
Immediately, Jieyin and Zhunti launched an attack on Nuwa together.
"This is the price you pay for plotting against me!"
Nuwa remained undaunted by the combined attack of the two sages.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Protected by the Nuwa Mountain and River Map, and wielding the Human Creation Whip and Red Embroidered Ball, she fought the two sages to a standstill.
Jieyin and Zhunti were already going all out, and now, enraged, their fighting power was even greater.
This time, even the Witch and Demon Clans were unable to intervene.
They could indeed fight a saint with the power of their great formation, but it would be difficult for them to sustain the battle for long.
Seeing the collapsed Mount Sumeru, the group of Ancestral Witch finally felt a sense of relief.
It's not that they don't want to continue their revenge, but with their capabilities, this is the most they can do.
Nuwa was, after all, a saint of the demon race; there was no reason for them to help her.
"The Saint Nuwa actually destroyed Mount Sumeru with a single strike and held two tribes of sages at a disadvantage?"
Zhenyuanzi was once again shocked by Nuwa's powerful combat strength.
"It's not that exaggerated."
Although there are differences in power among sages, they are still extremely weak.
Nuwa couldn't hold onto two sages for long if she did so.
Of course, neither Jieyin and Zhunti could harm Nuwa.
Saints are, to a certain extent, immortal beings.
Cihang saw it very clearly: Nuwa might be stronger than Jieyin, but ultimately her abilities were limited.
Even fighting two sages alone, Nuwa was merely putting on a brave front.
As for the collapse of Mount Sumeru, Nuwa also benefited from a clever trick.
Although Mount Sumeru is not as much of a pillar of heaven and earth as Buzhou Mountain, it is still the Western Ancestral Vein, and even sages cannot easily damage its foundation.
But Mount Sumeru was almost destroyed during the Dao-Devil War.
After Luohu's death, Jieyin and Zhunti moved to the Vulture Peak temple, merged with Mount Sumeru, and took over Mount Sumeru.
What Nuwa destroyed was the half of the sacred mountain that had been incorporated into it.
Mount Sumeru may appear devastated now, but its original essence remains undamaged.
Even this alone was enough to cause Jieyin and Zhunti to lose face.
"Fellow Daoists, do you truly intend to destroy this world?"
Seeing that the three were truly enraged, the Sanqing Ones appeared together and intercepted their attacks.
Nuwa, Nuwa, and Jieyin and Zhunti all looked rather grim upon seeing the Sanqing appear.
Nuwa was well aware that the Sanqing Ones had also intervened in this scheme.
But the reality is that she doesn't have the strength to deal with a sage who has achieved nothing at the same time.
But Jieyin and Zhunti would be even more furious.
They clearly became the targets of Nuwa's attempt to establish her authority.
The Sanqing Ones, on the other hand, reap the benefits without lifting a finger.
Zhunti was about to speak with anger on his face, but Jieyin stopped him.
He wasn't without anger, but he knew that this wasn't the time to openly break ties with the Sanqing Ones.
Moreover, this is the West; if the fighting continues, the losses will only increase.
If they attracted Hongjun's appearance, they would all flee and be reprimanded.
He Jieyin this humiliation.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, it was indeed my junior brother and I who attacked first this time."
However, since you have also destroyed Mount Sumeru, why don't we settle this matter here?
Jieyin suppressed his anger and revived the spirit of compassion and empathy.
"Fine, let's leave it at that. But if there's a next time, I definitely won't let it go so easily!"
Nuwa didn't dwell on the matter; destroying Mount Sumeru was already the limit.
Nuwa gave the group a warning look in her eyes, then rode the Golden Phoenix back to the Chaos Empress Wa's Palace.
Nuwa has achieved her goal for this trip.
Now that things have happened, they should think about the consequences before they try to scheme against themselves.
"Mount Sumeru still needs the two of you to recover, so we won't stay any longer!"
Sanqing also quickly took his leave.
Seeing Jieyin and Zhunti lose face this time is a great gain in itself.
Moreover, the West suffered heavy losses this time, and they do not have the energy to scheme for Eastern resources in the short term.
The Witch and Demon Clans had already left before Nuwa departed.
Without Nuwa's restraint, they would not have the strength to deal with the two sages.
However, like Nuwa, both races achieved their goal of establishing their authority by taking advantage of the West.
The only true loser in this battle was the Western Jieyin and Zhunti.
"Senior brother, let's just leave it at that."
This is the result of millions of years of hard work, and now it's all destroyed!
Watching the Sanqing figures depart, Zhunti hardly conceal the resentment in his heart.
"Of course we won't let it go like this, but the current situation is unfavorable, so we can only continue to endure."
However, the West will not remain like this forever!
Jieyin no less resentment than Zhunti, but he was more rational.
After saying this, Jieyin used his magic to begin reshaping Mount Sumeru.
Although Mount Sumeru was in a state of chaos, fortunately its foundation was not damaged.
It is clear that Nuwa acted with restraint and did not drive them to the brink of despair.
Under the guidance of Jieyin power, the mountain range was continuously reshaped, and the spiritual roots and immortal herbs within it regained their vitality.
Even so, the spiritual energy of Mount Sumeru is much weaker than before.
A full recovery also requires time to develop.
After Mount Sumeru was restored, the Jieyin released a group of disciples.
While he was rearranging the protective array around the mountain, Zhunti, along with his disciples, began to repair the western land.
Although this destruction was not as great as the Dao-Devil War, it still completely destroyed all the efforts he and the Jieyin had made.
The only saving grace is that the West is inherently barren, so naturally there are few living creatures.
This battle did not result in many innocent deaths.
At the Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, Cihang and Zhenyuanzi took the opportunity of this great battle to discuss the Dao.
Zhenyuanzi also found his future path in cultivation.
Since his cultivation level could no longer advance, he could continue to deduce Divine Abilities and Daoist Magic and use laws and divine powers to break through his limits.
Although it is difficult, it is a rare opportunity.
Seeing that Zhenyuanzi had gained some insight, Cihang took his leave immediately.
Not only Zhenyuanzi, but he also had many insights that he needed to transform into real combat power.
As soon as Cihang left Longevity Mountain, she felt an extreme malice.
Cihang stopped her escape.
A deep crimson hue appeared in the once clear sky and continued to spread.
