Baize Ascends Mount Kunlun, Three Pure Ones Show No Respect

Regarding the thoughts of his junior brothers and sisters in the Jie Sect, Li Yunjing was naturally well aware. He had many informants within the sect, and figures like Winged Immortal, Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Bixiao, Qiongxiao, and Fairy Caiyun were all subtly aligned with his faction.

Li Yunjing simply smiled and let these rumors pass. How could these people understand the principle of give and take? The newcomers in the Chan Sect were struggling, unable to bear this karmic debt. Primordial Heavenly Venerate had summoned him twice over the years and even bestowed some benefits upon him.

Overall, Li Yunjing had profited!

One must realize that Saints valued face above all else and would naturally not take advantage of a minor figure like Li Yunjing!

Li Yunjing employed a subtle approach. Look, Uncle-Master, aren't I treating your disciples well?

He offered them all sorts of heavenly treasures like "Enlightenment Tea" and "Five Elements Spirit Fruits." Furthermore, if your disciples encountered trouble, I would personally resolve it for them. Wasn't that generous enough?

Since your disciples couldn't repay the karma, naturally, you, their teacher, had to step in!

"Alright, go and attend to your business!"

At this moment, Li Yunjing had stabilized his cultivation at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, fully grasping this power. Every movement he made exuded the majesty of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Having received the instructions from his fifth senior brother, Dingguang Xian quickly acknowledged and hurried into the Upper Pure Palace.

"Di Jun and Xihe's ten future princes are not to be trifled with. There will be plenty of excitement to watch in the future."

Li Yunjing clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping down the mountain, piercing through layers of spiritual energy that had formed a dense mist. He looked towards the foot of the mountain, where the Heavenly Court's top general, the great sage Baize, stood.

"Oh?"

Baize suddenly sensed someone observing him from the mountain and immediately looked up. Two golden beams shot from his eyes, piercing through the layers of mist, revealing a smiling Daoist who was nodding in his direction.

"This is a third-generation Xuanmen disciple? Already a Grand Unity Golden Immortal? The Great Dao of a Saint is truly terrifying!"

Baize nodded at Li Yunjing, acknowledging him. Though his expression was calm, his heart churned with disbelief. How much time had passed? A disciple of the Three Pure Ones had actually risen to prominence!

Half an hour later, Dingguang Xian descended Mount Kunlun once more and invited the great sage Baize up.

"Haha! This humble Daoist, Chaos Child, greets the great sage Baize. Please forgive any prior discourtesy!" Standing outside the Upper Pure Palace, Li Yunjing clasped his fists and bowed.

"Fellow Daoist Chaos Child is too kind. For a third-generation Xuanmen disciple to advance to Grand Unity Golden Immortal so quickly is truly a testament to the Saints' omnipotence. It's enviable to be a disciple of a Saint!" Baize laughed heartily, his words a mixture of sincerity and probing, as he attempted to uncover the secrets of the Xuanmen.

"Chaos Child's current achievements are entirely due to my teacher and my Eldest Senior Brother Taiqing and Second Senior Brother Yuqing. It's a pity my aptitude is dull and I'm not cut out for greatness. I only recently reached Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and I will undoubtedly need more guidance from Great Sage Baize in the future." Li Yunjing's words were impeccable, ensuring that a mere Baize could not extract the secrets of the Three Sects.

"Fellow Daoist Chaos Child, we can chat later! We mustn't keep the Saints waiting. Shall I go in first?" Seeing that Li Yunjing was difficult to deal with, Baize smiled and said.

"Naturally!" Li Yunjing looked at Dingguang Xian beside him and instructed, "Junior Brother Dingguang Xian, please escort Great Sage Baize to see our teacher!"

"Yes, Fifth Senior Brother!"

Dingguang Xian acknowledged and stepped forward to lead Baize. Baize nodded at Li Yunjing before following Dingguang Xian into the Upper Pure Palace with a worried expression.

Fifth Senior Brother?

Fifth Senior Brother is already at the early stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal. Doesn't that mean there are four senior brothers and sisters above him?

The Orthodox Xuanmen truly cannot be underestimated!

Soon, under Dingguang Xian's guidance, Baize entered the Upper Pure Palace and paid his respects to Sect Master Tongtian.

"Baize, what brings you here?" Sect Master Tongtian asked indifferently, his expression unreadable.

Baize bowed his head. "Reporting to the Upper Purity Saint, I am here on behalf of the Heavenly Emperor. In a hundred years, the Heavenly Emperor will be wed to Fairy Xihe of the Moon Star. Our Heavenly Court has specially sent an invitation to the Saint, hoping that if you have the time, you will grace us with your presence!"

After speaking, Baize handed the invitation to Dingguang Xian to pass on to Sect Master Tongtian.

Looking at the invitation in his hand, Sect Master Tongtian remained expressionless and said in a deep voice, "I am already aware of this matter. You may leave."

"Yes!"

Respectfully bowing, Great Sage Baize slowly retreated. Afterward, he proceeded to the Jade Pure Palace and the Grand Pure Palace to meet the other two Saints.

However, the results were not ideal. None of the three Saints explicitly stated whether they would grace the Heavenly Court with their presence in a hundred years. This further deepened Baize's worries. The attitude of the Three Pure Ones towards the Heavenly Court was neither warm nor cold, and no one knew their true intentions, which posed a significant hidden danger to the Heavenly Court.

At this time, Di Jun was using the occasion of the heavenly wedding to prepare a banquet for the great mighty figures of the Primordial Desolation, intending to gauge the attitude of various forces towards the Heavenly Court. Unexpectedly, his initial approach to the Three Pure Ones met with a cold shoulder.

The more he thought about it, the more alarmed he became. He even politely declined Chaos Child's invitation to have tea at the Chaos Palace. With major matters unresolved and the future of the Demon Race uncertain, how could the Heavenly Court's foremost demon saint, the leader of ten armies and a peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal expert, be in the mood for tea?

Watching Baize vanish into the horizon like a rainbow.

Li Yunjing revealed a faint smile and murmured to himself, "Interesting! Interesting! This time, I, this humble Daoist, will personally go to the Heavenly Court to witness it. After this grand event, many great mighty figures will likely be seen no more."

Soon, as various demon saints dispatched invitations far and wide, the news of the Heavenly Emperor Di Jun and Fairy Xihe's impending marriage spread throughout the Primordial Desolation.

Except for the Witch Clan, practically all the prominent and influential mighty figures in the Primordial Desolation received invitations, even Nether River Patriarch from the Sea of Blood was no exception.

In response to the Heavenly Court's actions, the Three Pure Ones and a portion of the mighty figures with profound cultivation deduced the reasons through heavenly secrets. They lamented the fortune of the Demon Race.

A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. The Three Pure Ones gave the Heavenly Court no face, merely dispatching their disciples to attend the heavenly wedding on their behalf.

For the Human Teachings, it was naturally Grand Master Xuandu; for the Chan Sect, it was the Vice Sect Master Daoist Randeng; and for the Jie Sect, the task was assigned to Li Yunjing. Here, Grand Master Xuandu's cultivation progressed extremely rapidly. With a Saint personally guiding him and access to good items like the "Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir" readily available, Grand Master Xuandu's cultivation caught up to Li Yunjing's, and he advanced to Grand Unity Golden Immortal, becoming the sixth Grand Unity Golden Immortal among the second generation of the Three Sects.

On the Chan Sect's side, Guangchengzi and the other Twelve Golden Immortals were still far behind. The highest cultivation among them had only barely reached Grand Unity Golden Immortal, with most remaining at the Golden Immortal realm.

Precisely because the twelve true disciples had shallow cultivation and could not represent the Chan Sect, Primordial Heavenly Venerate had no choice but to have Randeng run errands, sending this Quasi-Saint to demonstrate the majesty of the Xuanmen's Chan Sect.
