Cihang was preparing for the great calamity, and the Sanqing and the Western Paradise were also preparing.

This calamity broke out very suddenly, and everything became uncontrollable.

It could be said that he gave everyone a slap in the face, leaving them rubbing their hands in suspense.

Like Cihang, they not only had to protect themselves during the great calamity, but also had to seize the opportunity to expand and strengthen themselves.

For low-level cultivators, the Great Tribulation is truly a catastrophe that destroys the world, but for the Sages, it is an opportunity to develop themselves.

With their strength and fortune, even the calamity of the Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods would find it difficult to shake their foundation.

What they need to consider is how to gain greater benefits.

This is especially true for the Jieyin and Zhunti.

Although they monopolized Western Ox Continent, the great calamity of the Dao and Demon realms had caused immense damage to the West.

Even after countless years, it still cannot compare with other regions.

In contrast, there are very few living beings and cultivators in the West.

Even if another great calamity were to break out, its impact on the West would be minimal.

No one wanted to fight for this barren land.

Moreover, there are two sages in the West who oversee things.

They were already shallow in foundation, and had nothing left to lose.

This great calamity was undoubtedly an opportunity for them, a chance to invade the East Victory Divine Continent.

After returning to Mount Sumeru, Jieyin and Zhunti began plotting how to invade the East Victory Divine Continent.

They had been suppressed for far too long, and finally had the opportunity to break through the Sanqing Ones' blockade.

In contrast, the Sanqing Ones were not in such a good mood.

They originally occupied the East Victory Divine Continent, which was the most abundant in Primordial World resources.

Today's East Victory Divine Continent can be considered the center of the Primordial World.

When the great calamity erupted, the East Victory Divine Continent impacted.

This will be the main battlefield of the great calamity.

They were also well aware that, as saints, they were not without worries.

The West, Houtu, Zhenyuanzi, and even Cihang are all potential enemies of theirs.

If the Sanqing Ones had not always been united and faced external threats together, they might not have been able to take sole control of the East Victory Divine Continent.

After returning to the Primordial World, the Sanqing went together to Shouyang Mountain to discuss how to deal with the great calamity!

"Now that the great calamity has begun again, what are your thoughts?"

Taiqing spoke first, asking for the opinions of Yuanshi and Tongtian.

"The current situation is extremely unfavorable for us. East Victory Divine Continent is now the center of the Primordial World and will inevitably suffer a huge impact."

Yuanshi frowned. Although they were saints, their opponents were equally powerful.

The slightest misstep could disrupt the balance they have maintained and the advantage they currently hold.

"Although the teacher did not say who initiated or presided over the great calamity, we cannot sit idly by and wait for our doom."

Otherwise, if many powerful figures were to attack East Victory Divine Continent, we would surely suffer enormous losses!

Tongtian also expressed his opinion.

Yuanshi and Tongtian recognized the seriousness of the problem.

Compared to Taiqing, this great calamity had a much greater impact on them.

Although Taiqing re-established Daoism, the number of Daoist disciples remained pitifully small, with only Xuandu as a disciple.

No matter how perilous the great calamity may be, Taiqing's strength is sufficient to prevent Xuandu from being caught in it and thus avoid its deep involvement.

But they are different. Not only do they have many disciples, but those disciples are also tainted with a lot of karmic Karmic Debt from killing.

This catastrophe was something I couldn't avoid.

Under normal circumstances, they would be able to protect their disciples.

But now that a great calamity has broken out, they are finding it difficult to take care of everyone.

"You're right, we really can't just sit here and wait to die."

Instead of waiting for them to make a move, let's take the initiative and divert the battle from the East Victory Divine Continent!

A glint of wisdom flashed in Taiqing's eyes.

"Senior brother means we should initiate the great tribulation first, limiting it to a certain scope!"

Yuanshi immediately determined the feasibility of the matter.

This would not only stabilize the East Victory Divine Continent, but also expand its own strength.

"This method is indeed feasible. Senior Brother, are you planning to take action against the West?"

Tongtian's eyes lit up, and boundless fighting spirit rose around him.

As sages, the Sanqing and Jieyin and Zhunti have always been rivals, and now they can take this opportunity to settle their differences.

"Although the West has a vast territory, it is divided into barren areas, so what is there to argue about?"

Moreover, the West now has two sages, who are not so easy to deal with!

Yuanshi immediately rejected Tongtian's proposal.

Although the Sanqing Ones are not afraid of Jieyin and Zhunti, if they were to attack them, the gains would clearly be disproportionate to the losses.

"What Yuanshi said is correct."

The West is not the best target for action.

Of the four continents in the Primordial World, the East Victory Divine Continent is under our control.

The West is impoverished and not worth interfering with.

Northern Kuru Continent has just recovered and is a battleground for those rogue cultivators. There is no need for us to push it to the brink of destruction.

Although South Continent is the smallest in area, it is rich in resources!

Taiqing summarized the situation of the Four Great Continents in just a few words.

"Are you planning to attack South Continent?"

Although Cihang was not a saint, his strength was by no means weak!

Moreover, if we were to take action against the South Continent, Jieyin and Zhunti might not necessarily stand idly by!

How could Tongtian not know their plans?

In everyone's perception, Cihang is comparable to a saint, but in the end, she is not a saint.

The choice between Cihang and the two saints is not difficult.

However, Tongtian subconsciously did not want to be Cihang's enemy.

Although he had fought with Cihang, there was no direct enmity between them, nor did he wish to make enemies.

"What my junior brother said makes sense, so we cannot only target Cihang, but also need to guard against the West."

They still covet the East Victory Divine Continent; they're bound to make a move this time!

Yuanshi did not refute this.

As for the South Continent, it was a decision he had made long ago, and he did not intend to share South Continent with Tongtian.

Although the Sanqing Ones jointly East Victory Divine Continent, the Interception Sect developed far faster than the Chan Sect.

Even Yuanshi remained dissatisfied with this.

Even Taiqing strongly agreed with Yuanshi's decision.

Although the Sanqing are closely related, they also have a competitive relationship.

Only when the strength of Yuanshi and Tongtian were equal could Taiqing maintain its transcendent status.

He did not favor one side Yuanshi the Tongtian, and always helped the weaker party.

Or rather, everything he did was for his own benefit.

"Since your two elder brothers have made their decision, then so be it. I will hold off the West!"

Tongtian was naturally aware of Yuanshi's plan, but he still agreed.

This stemmed from consideration for brotherly affection, but also from his own plans.

"Alright, then I'll leave the West to you, junior brother."

As for Senior Brother Taiqing, even if he were from the East Victory Divine Continent, he could lend a helping hand at any time should either side suffer a defeat!

Yuanshi was very satisfied with Tongtian's concession.

A potential conflict was thus averted.

After reaching a preliminary consensus, Yuanshi transformed into a stream of light and headed straight for Mount Luojia.

Although he had decided to target South Continent, this was not a covert operation, but an open conspiracy.

Although Yuanshi and Cihang are adversaries, there are some things they need to reach a consensus on.
