Tongtian Apologizes, the Interception Sect's Predicament
Seeing the surprise and resistance on Cihang's face, Tongtian also gave a wry smile.
He clearly hadn't forgotten his previous targeting of Cihang.
Although it wasn't his intention, he did indeed take action.
At the same time, he also knew that the less he understood the Karma of the past, the less likely Cihang would be to help him.
"Fellow Daoist Cihang, Tongtian apologizes for his previous targeting of you."
"As long as this Karma can be resolved, please feel free to ask for anything, fellow Daoist!"
Tongtian sincerely apologized to Cihang.
Of course, he didn't expect an apology to resolve the Karma.
"Since you are so sincere, Fellow Daoist, Cihang will not hold this matter against you!"
"As long as you can produce any one of the Five Directions Heaven and Earth Flags, the previous Karma will be settled!"
Cihang quickly changed her mind and made her own request.
He was aware of Tongtian's attitude towards him, but he did not refuse to understand the Karma.
"The Five Directions Heaven and Earth Flags? Can they be replaced with other spiritual treasures?"
Upon hearing Tongtian, Tongtian frowned.
He has no shortage of top-tier spiritual treasures, but that does not include the Five Directions Heaven and Earth Flags.
Moreover, he knew who owned the Five Directions Heaven and Earth Flags, which was a very difficult situation even for him.
"Of course not!"
Cihang shook her head and refused.
Although top-tier spiritual treasures are precious, they are not that effective for him.
He wanted to collect the Five Directions Heaven and Earth Flags in preparation for the next advancement of the Creation Green Lotus.
Moreover, the Five Directions Heaven and Earth Flags are already comparable to supreme treasures.
The reason for proposing such conditions is that these spiritual treasures are extremely rare.
"I can agree to your conditions, fellow Daoist."
However, as you know, fellow Daoist, even I need some time to determine the ownership of these Five Directional Banners!
Considering the current predicament of the Interception Sect, Tongtian still agreed.
"Alright, then Cihang will await your spiritual treasure, fellow Daoist!"
Cihang readily agreed to Tongtian.
He knew that even for Tongtian, obtaining the Five Directional Banners would not be easy.
He wasn't worried that Tongtian would break the agreement.
"Please rest assured, fellow Daoist, I will bring back the Five Directional Banners as soon as possible."
However, I have a request, and I hope you can lend me the Myriad Immortals Diagram!
Seeing that Cihang's attitude had softened, Tongtian made his own request this time.
"Although the Myriad Immortals Diagram is a top-tier spiritual treasure, it can be used to deduce the grand formations of heaven and earth."
"Given your achievements in Array Dao formations, even the Myriad Immortals Diagram wouldn't be that powerful!"
Cihang was surprised to learn that Tongtian had come for the Myriad Immortals Diagram.
Although it can assist in deducing the grand formation, its effect on Tongtian is not as great as expected.
"Originally, it was indeed unnecessary, but now that the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation has begun, I have no choice but to do so!"
Tongtian's face showed a bitter and helpless expression.
Seeing the look of doubt on Cihang's face, Tongtian made no attempt to hide it.
He did this for the sake of the Interception Sect and for his lineage.
Among the Three Schools of Xuanmen, the Interception Sect is undoubtedly the strongest, already possessing the momentum of attracting ten thousand immortals to pay homage.
Even if the Human and Chan Sects joined forces, they would still be no match for the Interception Sect.
However, the Interception Sect has always had a huge hidden danger: it lacks a treasure to suppress the flow of fortune.
As a result, the fortunes of the Interception Sect were unstable and unpredictable, like a false prosperity.
Normally, he would not be afraid, but now that a great calamity is imminent, without a treasure array of fortune, the Jie Sect Disciple are facing almost endless tribulations.
The slightest misstep could lead to the destruction of the entire tradition.
When the tide turns against him, even a saint like him will face the consequences.
This was also the main reason why he was unwilling to take the initiative and chose to stay in the East Victory Divine Continent instead.
When the treasures were distributed at the Zixiao Palace, he was proud of obtaining the Four Swords of Execution.
But now he is worried because he doesn't have a magic treasure to suppress the flow of energy.
Thinking of this, Tongtian couldn't help but look at Cihang with envy once again.
Cihang possesses several spiritual treasures for suppressing destiny.
The Chaos Bell, the Creation Green Lotus, the Primordial Heaven Measuring Ruler, and even the All Beings Seal all have the effect of suppressing destiny.
Although he possessed many top-tier spiritual treasures, most of them were for killing and were simply incapable of suppressing the Interception Sect's fortune.
Left with no other choice, he could only resort to suppression, gathering the power of ten thousand immortals to suppress the fortune of the Interception Sect.
His deductions have yielded considerable results.
Given more time, he will surely succeed, and the Jie Interception Sect will no longer need to worry about its fortune.
However, the outbreak of the Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods gave him absolutely no time.
He could only turn to Cihang for help, borrowing the Myriad Immortals Diagram in the hope of perfecting the great formation as soon as possible.
As for Cihang's few treasures for suppressing the world, Tongtian may have had some interest in them before, but he has now completely given up on them.
His combat strength might be slightly stronger than Yuanshi's, but they are not far apart.
Yuanshi could not defeat Cihang, so naturally he could not do it either.
Through Tongtian's explanation, Cihang also came to understand the Karma.
They also understood the hidden Karma of the Great Investiture of the Gods.
In the original timeline, Tongtian kept the mountain gates closed not because he was weak, but because he truly wanted to protect the Jie Sect Disciple.
It was also due to the hidden dangers in their destiny that the Interception Sect, despite being the strongest, ultimately suffered a crushing defeat.
"I see, I understand your predicament, fellow Daoist!"
However, the Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods has now begun, and the Chan Sect is eyeing it covetously, ready to attack my Mount Luojia.
This Myriad Immortals Diagram now holds several important uses for me, but I cannot lend it to you, fellow Daoist.
However, since my fellow Daoist has spoken, Cihang cannot remain inactive.
I have some insights about the Dao of Array Dao here, which I hope will be helpful to you, fellow Daoist!
Cihang formed a hand seal, and countless array patterns gathered in front of her, eventually transforming into a mysterious Jade Pendant.
There is no specific formation on the Jade Pendant, but rather the mysteries of the Dao of Array Dao and Cihang's insights.
Although he felt some sympathy for Tongtian's plight, he would not sacrifice his own interests for Tongtian's sake.
Choosing to help Tongtian was also because they didn't want the Interception Sect to be destroyed in this great calamity.
Regardless of whether Tongtian had ulterior motives, the very existence of the Interception Sect was an opportunity for all living beings in the Primordial World.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist."
Tongtian hereby swears that during this calamity, the Jie Sect Disciple will never take the initiative to attack the Mount Luojia lineage."
Tongtian happily accepted the Array Dao Jade Pendant.
He was not displeased at all by Cihang's refusal.
That previous battle convinced him that Cihang's achievements in Array Dao formations were in no way inferior to his own.
This Jade Pendant was no less helpful to him than the Myriad Immortals Diagram, and perhaps even more so.
That is why he made such a vow.
Of course, he also left himself some room for maneuver.
If the cultivators from the Mount Luojia lineage make a move, he can naturally retaliate.
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be so polite!"
I hope these insights will be of some help to you, fellow Daoist. Now that the great calamity has begun, I will not take up any more of your time!
Cihang was very satisfied with this result.
Even without the assistance of the Interception Sect, the Mount Luojia lineage could still handle the situation on its own with the Chan Sect alone.
Tongtian needs to comprehend the Suppressing Fortune Array, and he also needs to open up battlefield space.
