The Possibility of a Sage's Disciple: Primordial Lord of Heaven Confronts the Two Sages of the West
Kunlun.
In Jade Void Palace.
When Zhunti and Jieyin were proclaiming the Sage's edict in the Fengyan Tribe.
Primordial Lord awoke from his cultivation.
There was no other reason than the system notification ringing loudly in his mind.
[ding! Zhunti and Jieyin have been detected pressuring Human Emperor Fuxi to go to Fire Cloud Cave. Please choose.] [1. Go with the flow and order Fuxi to go to Fire Cloud Cave. Reward: 1x acquired treasure.] [2. Refuse the Dao Ancestor's edict, assist Fuxi, and protect the Human Emperor. Reward: Chaos Spiritual Root: Chaos Shore Flower.]
Primordial Lord looked at the options given by the system, his gaze deep and profound.
He did not choose immediately. Instead, he first performed a deduction.
After all, this was the Dao Ancestor's edict.
The Three Sects had yet to unite. Directly refusing the Dao Ancestor's edict would clearly mean standing against Hongjun. Even if he protected Fuxi now,
Hongjun would certainly not permit it. When the time came, the overall situation would remain unchanged, so he had to understand the circumstances first.
As the deduction continued, he immediately sensed what was happening in the Fengyan Tribe. Then, an expression of fury appeared on his face.
Zhunti and Jieyin were actually threatening his disciple—Guangchengzi.
Primordial Lord flew into a rage.
You two—Zhunti and Jieyin—actually dared to threaten my disciple!
If Hongjun's Daoist attendants had come to proclaim the edict, he would have found it difficult to make a decision.
But now, it was Zhunti and Jieyin.
Moreover, they had even threatened his disciple.
That gave him a reason!
Primordial Lord made his choice at once.
Jieyin, Zhunti, since you dared to target my disciple, you shall bear my wrath!
At the same time.
Fengyan Tribe.
Guangchengzi stood in front of Fuxi with his hands behind his back, his expression resolute.
Even with a Sage standing before him, he remained tall and straight without the slightest fear, like a divine spear standing between heaven and earth, carrying an unstoppable momentum!
In the sky, Zhunti and Jieyin were also stunned, anger appearing on their faces.
As Heavenly Dao Sages, they were revered wherever they went. Who would dare defy a Sage's words?
Yet Guangchengzi was merely a Grand Luo Golden Immortal.
His identity was only that of one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect and a disciple of Primordial Lord.
Meanwhile, they were of the same generation as Primordial Lord.
Even setting cultivation level aside, merely by seniority, Guangchengzi should address them as martial uncles.
Yet Guangchengzi had not only shown them no respect, he had even dared to defy them!
How could the two of them not be furious?!
Zhunti and Jieyin exchanged a glance, and a decision immediately formed in their hearts.
We can't defeat Primordial Lord, but can't we deal with a mere junior disciple of his?
Even if Primordial Lord came to question them, it would still be Guangchengzi who had disrespected a Sage first. He deserved to be punished!
Zhunti immediately stepped forward. The immense pressure of a Sage descended, and his voice turned icy.
"Guangchengzi, considering that your master Primordial Lord is my senior brother and that, by seniority, I am also your martial uncle, I will ask you one more time today. Do you truly intend to defy the Dao Ancestor's edict?!"
His vast voice contained the mighty laws of a Heavenly Dao Sage and resounded with tremendous authority.
Guangchengzi felt as if an ancient divine mountain were bearing down on him. The bones throughout his body creaked, as though he could be crushed into minced flesh at any moment.
This was the might of a Sage, something that could not be defied!
With a mere thought, a Sage could crush every existence below Sainthood!
If one could not become a Sage, then even if one came infinitely close to Sainthood, one would ultimately remain an ant. To a Sage, exterminating such a being required no effort at all.
Yet even under such circumstances, Guangchengzi remained tall and straight, without bending in the slightest.
He raised his head and looked at Zhunti and Jieyin. His gaze was exceedingly firm, as if he were bearing an ancient divine mountain on his back. Then he spoke directly: "Fuxi is my disciple, and therefore he is a disciple of the Chan Sect!"
"I absolutely will not agree to Fuxi going to Fire Cloud Cave!"
"If I do not agree, the Chan Sect will not agree either!!!"
Each word burst from his mouth, his voice heavy.
As the Sage Teacher of Humanity, his duties involved more than teaching the Human Emperor cultivation and the ways of governing the world. He also bore the responsibility of being a master.
Now that he was in the Fengyan Tribe, how could he simply stand by and watch his disciple fall into danger?
I will not agree!
The Chan Sect will not agree either!
"Master, you have already done enough for your disciple. You do not need to do this for me anymore. Perhaps this is simply my destiny."
Fuxi spoke softly, his face filled with reluctance.
As a Quasi-Sage, he naturally knew what kind of pressure Guangchengzi was enduring.
And all of that pressure was being borne because of him.
As a disciple, he could not shield his master from wind and rain. Instead, he was making his master suffer because of him.
That was not right!
He looked at Zhunti and Jieyin, having already made his choice.
Since this was the Dao Ancestor's edict, perhaps this was his destiny. Perhaps Fire Cloud Cave was his only destination.
"You are not only the Human Emperor. You are also my disciple. If I say I do not agree, then I do not agree!"
Guangchengzi blocked Fuxi, his steps heavy. Every footfall seemed to bear a burden weighing a thousand jun.
"Since you insist on going your own way, today I will stand in for Senior Brother Primordial Lord and teach his disciple a lesson!"
Zhunti's fury surged within him.
What a Guangchengzi! He actually dared to obstruct the Dao Ancestor's edict again and again. He truly does not take the two of us seriously!
We can't discipline Primordial Lord, but can't we beat a mere junior like you?!
At that moment, he did not hesitate in the slightest and struck down with one palm.
Vast Sage laws swept across heaven and earth. Endless void twisted and boomed, unable to withstand the force, before suddenly exploding apart.
Countless lifeforms knelt prostrate on the ground, unable to endure the immense power of a Sage.
Even a casual palm strike was a calamity of annihilation to every existence below Sainthood!
Yet before his palm could descend, a streak of divine light suddenly appeared, coming from the east at incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it had already arrived before them.
The Sage laws that had filled the void moments before were directly severed.
Zhunti felt as if he had suffered a heavy blow. He hurriedly withdrew his palm and retreated again and again.
Before he could open his mouth to demand an explanation,
a voice even more immense than before rang out across heaven and earth.
"When did it become someone else's turn to reprimand my disciple?!"
As the voice fell, nine five-clawed golden dragons, each ten thousand miles long and at the level of Grand Luo Golden Immortals, appeared in the endless void, pulling a simple and ancient Nine Dragon Agarwood Chariot.
Boundless immortal light cascaded down. In a daze, one could see a dignified, middle-aged Daoist seated atop the Nine Dragon Agarwood Chariot, with center-parted white hair, a Jade Purity Lotus Crown on his head, and a Jade Thread Golden Silk Rainbow Robe over his body.
Three hundred thousand zhang of celebratory clouds gathered above his head, while multicolored clouds and radiant mists swirled around him.
Before him floated a nine-foot-long banner surrounded by endless Chaos qi.
Although it displayed no power, its faintly discernible sharp aura was enough to tear apart the heavens.
It was none other than the Pangu Banner!
It possessed the might to tear apart the primordial chaos, the power to shatter the spacetime of the heavens, the boundless Dao of creation, the ability to command the profundities of all laws, and the power to open up heaven, earth, and the universe!
The identity of this middle-aged Daoist was self-evident.
He was none other than the Jade Void Primordial Lord of Heaven!
He moved extremely quickly. In only an instant, he had already arrived above the Fengyan Tribe, standing in front of Guangchengzi and confronting the Two Sages of the West.
"Not bad. You know to protect a disciple of our sect." He glanced back at Guangchengzi and slowly said, "Your master is here now. If the heavens collapse, your master will hold them up!"
