Nuwa stood at the gate of the Chan Sect.
With a single thought, a Saint could know and do everything.
With only a thought, she could already see the transformation of the entire Chan Sect.
The Spiritual Qi was incredibly dense. Just one breath here was a hundred times better than anywhere else!
Moreover, with a single thought, she could feel herself comprehending the Great Dao more quickly.
There was even a tenfold increase!
Though separated by only a mountain gate, it seemed as if they were two different worlds!
The Spiritual Qi and Dao Rhyme were so dense that this place hardly seemed like the Chan Sect.
Such a Chan Sect was even superior to Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Purple Cloud Palace!
Nuwa was deeply shaken.
Yet these were still far from the things that shocked Nuwa the most. What shocked her most were the disciples of the Chan Sect.
There were a thousand Quasi-Saints alone.
One had to understand that the current Great Wilderness had endured the Dragon-Han Initial Tribulation and the Witch-Demon Calamity, causing countless powerful figures to fall.
Of the three thousand guests who had once gathered at the Purple Cloud Palace, how many remained now?
In the current Great Wilderness, let alone Quasi-Saints—even Grand Luo Golden Immortals could already be considered great powers of a region!
Not to mention the thousand Quasi-Saints. There were also more than three thousand Grand Luo Golden Immortals. Such a grand scene was even more prosperous than when Dao Ancestor Hongjun had lectured on the Dao at the Purple Cloud Palace!
And throughout the vast Chan Sect, even the disciples with the lowest cultivation were Grand Unity Golden Immortals!
"Such a Chan Sect could probably smash the entire Great Wilderness to pieces!"
Nuwa stopped dead in her tracks, as if struck by a bolt from the blue.
This Chan Sect was too powerful!
It was simply terrifying!
Before she could head to the Jade Void Palace, Primordial Lord's voice reached her ears.
"Junior Sister Nuwa, what brings you to my Chan Sect today?"
As his voice fell, Primordial Lord's figure appeared reflected from the void.
His white hair was parted down the middle. He wore a Jade Purity Lotus Crown and a Jade Thread Golden Silk Rainbow Robe. His expression was dignified and indifferent, as though he had always been this way, with nothing in the world capable of causing even the slightest ripple in him.
"Hiss!"
When Nuwa looked up at Primordial Lord, she could not help drawing in a sharp breath.
As a Saint, what she could perceive far surpassed that of ordinary people.
She could sense that the aura emanating from Primordial Lord was incredibly profound, ancient, and vast...
Within it, she even sensed the pressure of a Great Dao Chaos Demon God, along with a terrifying aura that seemed almost capable of destroying the world!
It was as if even the Great Dao itself would be ground to dust with a casual gesture!
Primordial Lord's strength had not been weak before, but he had definitely not been this powerful. He had even been somewhat weaker than her.
After all, she had created humanity, repaired the heavens, and severed the limbs of the Northern Sea Black Tortoise to support the heavens. Each of these had been an unparalleled opportunity, allowing her to reach her current realm.
Yet Primordial Lord had surpassed her without her noticing!
What kind of cultivation speed was this?!
Great waves of shock surged through her heart, and she was utterly horrified.
Only after a long while did she recover. Looking at Primordial Lord, she respectfully said, "Senior Brother Primordial Lord, humanity is now flourishing, and the opportunity to establish the Human Dao is drawing near. I came to thank you."
"If not for the letter you secretly sent me back then, Senior Brother Primordial Lord, and the Human Dao Seal you sent, I fear that when the future Human Emperor lost his position, I would have been injured as well."
"So it was for this matter."
A smile appeared on Primordial Lord's face. "There is no need to thank me, Junior Sister Nuwa. I only hope you will not forget our agreement from back then."
Everything was for the future Unification of the Three Teachings and the creation of a better Dao Sect!
After all, if the Three Teachings were unified and the Dao Sect established, Hongjun would certainly refuse to allow it. Once they stood opposed to the Mystic Gate, the Dao Sect would need enough strength to rely on!
Nuwa was an indispensable ally!
"Such a great favor naturally cannot be forgotten."
Nuwa spoke respectfully.
The two of them reminisced for a while.
Only then did Nuwa depart gracefully.
Purple Cloud Palace.
Two beams of divine light shot out from within. They blazed with dazzling radiance, tore through the void, pushed through the chaos, and headed straight toward the Western Teachings.
These two were none other than Zhunti and Jieyin!
The two traveled through the chaos, their faces no longer carrying the slightest trace of their former gloom. They were both radiant and spirited.
Even the bitter aura that Jieyin unconsciously emitted had faded considerably.
"Junior Brother, after listening to our teacher lecture on the Dao beside him for so many years, and thanks to his generosity in bestowing so many spirit roots to aid our cultivation, we have finally broken through to the fifth heaven of Sainthood. We no longer need to fear Primordial Lord and Tongtian!"
Jieyin and Zhunti wore smiles.
In the past, they had been inferior to Primordial Lord and Tongtian. Aside from the issue of treasures, their strength had also been at the bottom.
Now, in the Purple Cloud Palace, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had taught them with all his heart. He had not only lectured on the Dao day and night but had also provided them with countless spirit roots that aided comprehension, without the slightest stinginess.
After cultivating for so many years, although they were inferior to the Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality, they had finally caught up with Tongtian and Primordial Lord's realms.
After all, when they had met the two before, they had only been at the fifth heaven of Sainthood.
Now, the two had gained tremendous confidence!
One had to know how difficult Saint cultivation was.
They had listened to the Dao day and night beside Dao Ancestor Hongjun, received an infusion of laws, and supplemented their cultivation with spirit roots. Only then had they barely broken through two minor realms.
As for Tongtian and Primordial Lord, with no one teaching them and only their own cultivation, they should not have made any breakthroughs. At long last, they could hold their heads high again!
"Indeed, Senior Brother. The two of us suffered too much before, bullied by the Three Pure Ones. Now that our strength has broken through, it is time for the Western Teachings to rise!"
"The evil deeds the Three Pure Ones committed against the West in the past—we will reclaim them one by one!"
Zhunti's gaze shifted slightly, and a ruthless glint flashed through his eyes.
He had cultivated bitterly in the Purple Cloud Palace for no other reason than to one day make the West flourish and take revenge on the Three Pure Ones.
Now that he had successfully broken through, that opportunity had arrived!
"Junior Brother, we cannot rush this matter."
"The Three Pure Ones have reconciled and joined forces against outsiders, which is disadvantageous to the two of us. We should first divide and weaken them, causing conflict to rise between the Interception Sect and the Chan Sect again."
"Once the fortunes of the two sects decline, our Western Teachings can profit from it. We may even plot against the East and make the West flourish without expending the slightest effort!"
Countless schemes had already formed in Jieyin's heart as he laid out his plan.
Zhunti's gaze shifted slightly. "Senior Brother, are you thinking of that Chang'er Dingguang Xian of the Interception Sect?"
"That is correct."
Jieyin nodded. "This person already harbored hatred toward the Chan Sect and once tried to sow discord between Tongtian and Primordial Lord."
"He is also Tongtian's attendant and enjoys Tongtian's deep trust. Such a person can be made useful to our Western Teachings as long as we promise him sufficient benefits!"
They had set their sights on Chang'er Dingguang Xian long ago.
The reason they had not acted rashly the first time was that they wanted to see how determined he was to sow discord between the Chan Sect and the Interception Sect.
After that first incident, the two realized that he could be used by the Western Teachings.
At that time, however, their strength had still been too weak. If they had directly sowed discord, they would inevitably have brought disaster upon themselves, leaving them with no ability to protect themselves.
Things were different now. Their strength had improved, and they felt they were no weaker than Primordial Lord and Tongtian. They now possessed the ability to protect themselves, so it was time to put their previous plan into action!
"Excellent!"
Zhunti looked excited.
The two spoke as they traveled, and they had now returned to the deepest reaches of Western Heaven.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, Zhunti sat cross-legged and directly used the Dream-Entering Fate Technique to scheme against Chang'er Dingguang Xian.
Jieyin sat cross-legged beside him and used Saint laws to obscure the secrets of Heaven, preventing the others from perceiving them.
This matter had to be carried out with the utmost secrecy!
They had to plant the seed of disaster within the Interception Sect!
