Now, Saint Taiqing had actually put up such spiritual treasures as prizes.
Gu Changsheng was quite eager to compete for them.
"No matter what, I will win this debate on the Dao."
Whether it was the Jade Void Glazed Lamp, the Earth-Leaving Flame Light Banner, or the Purple Lightning Hammer, all of them were immensely important to Gu Changsheng.
He was determined to obtain these spiritual treasures.
At the peak of the Sky Dome, the Saint's Voice rang out.
"Disciples of the Three Sects, heed my command. Yuanshi, Tongtian, and I have discussed this. Each of the Three Sects will send three people to debate the Dao at the Jade Void Palace dojo."
"The victors will receive these spiritual treasures as rewards."
The disciples at the Jade Void Palace dojo were all greatly excited.
"This disciple obeys the decree!"
The disciples of the Three Sects were exceptionally thrilled. Who would not covet these spiritual treasures? Who would not want them?
At once, the disciples dispersed to the rear.
The Jade Void Palace dojo was cleared out.
Gu Changsheng saw that Daoist Duobao, who had already reached Great Perfection Golden Immortal, had a gaze as bright as torches and an exceedingly resolute expression.
Duo Bao also swept his gaze over Gu Changsheng.
"Hmph, who in your Chan Sect can compare to me?"
Daoist Duobao looked rather arrogant.
Juliusun, True Person Puxian, and the other disciples all glared at Daoist Duobao.
After all, if not for Daoist Duobao, they would have broken through long ago.
Guang Chengzi, Chijingzi, and the others had also felt their primordial spirits tremble from Daoist Duobao's breakthrough.
They bore quite a bit of hostility toward the Interception Sect.
Gu Changsheng remained calm and showed no panic whatsoever.
At his side, Xuan Du could not help looking toward the field.
"Honestly speaking, the Chan Sect is at a disadvantage."
Xuan Du could see that Daoist Duobao had already reached Great Perfection Golden Immortal.
Gu Changsheng's cultivation, meanwhile, was only at the late Golden Immortal stage.
There was still some gap between him and Daoist Duobao.
Even if Gu Changsheng's comprehension was heaven-defying.
Among the disciples of the Three Sects, however, who was not a person of heaven-defying comprehension?
Thus, Xuan Du was quite worried inwardly.
And precisely because Gu Changsheng was human, he was somewhat inclined toward him.
After all, the human race and the demon race had karmic ties.
Among the Interception Sect disciples, quite a few were demons.
Xuan Du held them in considerable disdain.
Daoist Randeng looked toward Gu Changsheng.
This brat was still so calm?
Could it be that he had some plan to win?
Daoist Randeng lightly shook his head, a chill in his expression.
As the Three Pure Ones looked at the disciples, Sect Leader Tongtian smiled faintly.
"Daoist Brother Yuanshi, Elder Brother Taiqing, my Chief Disciple's cultivation is slightly superior."
Primordial Heavenly Venerate frowned slightly, but said, "That may be so, but my disciples are not weak either."
"As for Gu Changsheng, he is indeed somewhat powerful, but compared with my Duobao, he falls a little short."
Primordial Heavenly Venerate was about to speak again.
Saint Taiqing stepped in to smooth things over. "Enough, do not mention it further. Let these disciples debate the Dao."
"Agreed!"
Primordial Heavenly Venerate and Sect Leader Tongtian exchanged a glance and answered in unison.
At the Jade Void Palace dojo, Turtle Spirit Holy Mother and the other disciples also raised their eyes toward the Chan Sect disciples.
"With Senior Brother Duobao holding the fort this time, we will surely win and obtain those treasures."
Holy Mother Wudang said softly, "Indeed. Even Gu Changsheng among the Chan Sect disciples cannot compare to Senior Brother Duobao."
"Taking them down will be as easy as turning over our hands."
Golden Spirit Holy Mother beside them, however, frowned tightly.
"In my view, we must not let down our guard."
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother said quietly, "Could it be that we are afraid of them?"
Zhao Gongming smiled. "These prizes are ours for the taking."
Daoist Duobao stared at Gu Changsheng without saying a word.
Among the Chan Sect disciples, Guang Chengzi and Chijingzi swept their icy gazes across them like lightning.
The Blazing Sun and the Chilly Bright Moon!
At the Jade Void Palace dojo, spiritual winds stirred on their own.
Among the Chan Sect, Juliusun stepped forward.
"Senior brothers, how about I debate the Dao this time?"
He was short and stocky, with an ordinary appearance.
Yet the fact that he could become one of the Chan Sect Twelve Golden Immortals showed that his comprehension was not low.
Gu Changsheng knew that Juliusun was skilled in the Earth-Traveling Technique.
He would likely be unable to gain the upper hand in this debate on the Dao.
Among the Interception Sect disciples, Turtle Spirit Holy Mother, wearing a jade crown and holding the Sun Moon Pearl, stepped forward with an air of overflowing clear radiance.
"Juliusun, I shall debate the Dao with you!"
Her voice was like ice, carrying a distinctly cold and aloof tone.
"Juliusun of the Chan Sect!"
"Turtle Spirit Holy Mother of the Interception Sect."
After the two exchanged salutes, terrifying mana erupted from them in an instant, shaking the entire dojo.
Streams of spiritual light surged forth at once, as if blanketing heaven and earth.
Gu Changsheng knew that Turtle Spirit Holy Mother's original form had been a ten-thousand-year spirit turtle.
When the Cangjie Clan created writing and turtle script took on the shape of wings, she transformed into human form.
Later, she entered the Interception Sect.
The object in her hand was a precious pearl containing the spiritual essence of the sun and moon.
At this moment, Juliusun held a treasured sword that bloomed with cold spiritual radiance.
Spiritual winds rose again across the dojo, whipping up their Daoist robes.
The Interception Sect and Chan Sect disciples all watched intently.
Just then, Juliusun wielded his treasured sword, transforming it into streams of heaven-destroying spiritual light that blasted toward Turtle Spirit Holy Mother.
The power of that spiritual light was incomparably sharp, instantly spreading across all heaven and earth.
"Hehe, such spiritual light dares contend with the sun and moon?"
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother unleashed the Sun Moon Pearl.
In an instant, it was like a blazing sun and a chilly bright moon.
The moonlight transformed into endless frost.
The might of the sun blanketed the Sky Dome.
The dazzling radiance caused heaven and earth to freeze.
The Jade Void Palace dojo seemed to be shrouded beneath the blazing sun.
Juliusun's sword radiance was shattered in an instant.
His expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly used the Earth-Traveling Technique to burrow underground.
"Haha!"
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother laughed loudly. In an instant, she caused the sun and moon to shine together, as heaven and earth collapsed.
Endless radiance blanketed every inch of land.
Whenever Juliusun dared show his head, the light of the sun and moon transformed into towering waves and blasted toward him.
Juliusun's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly used the Earth-Traveling Technique again.
The entire dojo had been covered.
Even the spiritual mist was dispersed.
Guang Chengzi, Chijingzi, and the other disciples looked toward the dojo.
