"Primordial Lord, what do you mean by this?!"
Zhunti couldn't hold back and glared at Primordial Lord of Heaven.
He immediately unleashed the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree.
Its seven-colored divine light illuminated the mountains and rivers.
This was originally one of the Ten Innate Spiritual Roots, later refined into a magic treasure by Daoist Zhunti. Nurtured by Saintly laws for ten thousand years, its power was terrifying, an Innate Supreme Treasure!
"Primordial Lord, for you Three Pure Ones to try and swallow the Sage Teacher positions for yourselves is simply too much!"
Jieyin also couldn't sit still.
The Demon-Quelling Pestle materialized in his hand, confronting Primordial Lord.
Eight Sage Teacher positions.
Even if all their schemes failed and the West couldn't gain much, they still deserved two Sage Teacher positions.
But now, this Primordial Lord was directly taking all eight Sage Teacher positions. This was too much!
How could they accept this?
It was practically bullying the West too much!
In this case, how could they back down?
Primordial Lord of Heaven's expression was indifferent. His icy gaze swept over Zhunti and Jieyin, paying them no mind.
Currently, the only thing on his mind was the System!
As expected, after he had berated the two Saints of the West.
The System's prompt sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Choice successful.]
[Reward: Chaos Supreme Treasure: Chaos Pearl!]
Primordial Lord's heart surged with excitement.
This was a Chaos Supreme Treasure!
On par with the Sky-Opening Axe, Chaos Green Lotus, and Jade Disk of Creation!
Born from chaos, it contained a chaotic world within, with forty-nine layers of restrictions.
Its origins were immense.
For now, Primordial Lord didn't pay it much attention and directly stored the reward into the System Space.
After all, he was still in Empress Nuwa's Palace, not the time to examine rewards.
Before he could even open his mouth to retort to the two Saints of the West.
He heard Tongtian's voice first.
"Are you two trying to bully us Three Pure Ones?!"
As his words fell.
Buzzzzzzzzz!!!!
Four sword cries echoed through heaven and earth, shaking the entire Palace of Empress Nuwa.
Immediately after, four immortal swords were seen circling Tongtian.
Even though they were not activated, faint sword cries could be clearly heard, and terrifying sword energy flowed. Even as he stood still, the void seemed to be exploding under the pressure.
These were none other than the Four Immortal Slaying Swords!
Tongtian glared at Zhunti and Jieyin, "Do you perhaps think my elder brother is wrong?!"
Although he didn't know why Primordial Lord of Heaven was being so biased.
He had long been fed up with the two Saints of the West, who had repeatedly insulted his Intercepting Sect disciples and provoked him.
Since Primordial Lord had stepped forward to protect the Three Pure Ones' lineage, there was no reason for him not to help.
"The Human Emperor Sage Teacher position was meant to follow the will of Heaven, allowing us to discuss it here. Now, are your actions, the two of you, looking down on us Three Pure Ones?"
Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality's aged voice echoed through the Palace of Empress Nuwa.
He immediately unleashed the Taiji Diagram.
Myriad rays of light, streams of auspicious colors, five-colored divine light illuminated the mountains and rivers. Nine-colored auspicious energy shocked the heavens and the universe...
Its mystery was boundless, its creation infinite, capable of dissolving all attacks and ignoring any defense!
He felt extremely gratified. He never expected that one day, the Three Pure Ones would have a chance to join forces.
After all, in the past, let alone joining forces, with Primordial Lord's prejudice against the Intercepting Sect, he would have wanted to fight Tongtian the moment they met.
Furthermore, these Zhunti and Jieyin were simply despicable.
Initially, they wanted to seize half of the Sage Teacher positions while they were not yet in the Palace of Empress Nuwa.
Later, they even tried to sow discord between Primordial Lord and Tongtian.
How could he, as the eldest brother, tolerate this?
Non-action is merely following nature's course, not doing nothing at all!
For a moment, in the Palace of Empress Nuwa, five Saints confronted each other, their Saintly laws clashing.
Among them, Nuwa was the most shocked.
The Three Pure Ones joining forces – how long had it been since this was seen?
It had been countless eons since the Three Pure Ones went their separate ways.
To think there would still be such an opportunity.
"Damn it!"
Zhunti cursed inwardly, his expression extremely grim, feeling utterly stifled.
The Three Pure Ones joining forces.
He knew he couldn't win without even fighting.
Let alone the Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality, who was the most profound in cultivation among the Six Sages of the Heavens.
Just the Primordial Lord of Heaven alone made him feel immense pressure.
It was nothing else; the aura radiating from the Primordial Lord of Heaven now was too profound, already differing from the Heavenly Dao, like a more powerful Great Dao aura!
This shocked him immensely.
When did this Primordial become so strong?
Not to mention Tongtian's Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
This was the foremost killing treasure in the Great Wilderness.
Once unleashed, it could only be broken by the combined efforts of four Saints.
How the hell was he supposed to fight this?!
Jieyin also wore a look of frustration. He exchanged a glance with Zhunti and understood his meaning.
He immediately snorted coldly and glared at the Three Pure Ones, "My junior brother and I will remember today's events!"
He said no more and slunk away from the Palace of Empress Nuwa.
It was simply because he truly couldn't win.
Given the current attitude of the Three Pure Ones, if they stayed in the Palace of Empress Nuwa, let alone the position of Sage Teacher, they would likely end up getting beaten.
In that case, it was better to conserve their energy and plan for the future!
The position of Sage Teacher was not so easily decided!
With the departure of the two Western Saints, the tense atmosphere in the Palace of Empress Nuwa immediately dissipated.
The Three Pure Ones also put away their respective magical treasures.
Now, all that remained before the Three Pure Ones was the matter of how to allocate the position of Sage Teacher.
Before the Primordial could speak.
Tongtian stepped forward first, looking at the Primordial, his expression softening slightly, "Brother, my Intercepting Sect does not want this Sage Teacher position either, we only ask for two Venerables."
He was returning a favor.
After all, the two Western Saints had constantly targeted the Intercepting Sect before, and it was the Primordial who had helped them out.
Furthermore, it was the Primordial who first made a move to force the Western Saints away.
"I am the same,"
the Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality said with a smile.
His Human Sect only had Xuandu and one registered disciple: Du'e. Even if this Sage Teacher position was given to him, it would be of no use.
The Primordial did not refuse and spoke directly, "Since that is the case, I will not decline. I shall take the remaining four positions of Human Race Sage Teacher."
Nuwa looked at the harmonious scene of the Three Pure Ones, her heart filled with even more surprise.
Of course, she also understood why the Three Pure Ones were in such a state.
It all stemmed from the Primordial's change.
She looked at the Primordial Lord of Heaven and asked with confusion, "Senior Brother Primordial, Junior Sister has something she doesn't understand."
"Seeing Senior Brother today, I clearly feel that your conduct and style are vastly different from before, so I wish to ask, why has Senior Brother suddenly undergone such a change?"
The Primordial glanced at Tongtian and the Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality, his expression indifferent, his face devoid of joy or sorrow, and spoke directly, "Blood is thicker than water. How we Three Pure Ones are is not for others to provoke!"
Buzz--
The moment his voice fell.
Tongtian felt as if heavenly thunder had struck his mind, causing immense shock.
What a profound statement, "Blood is thicker than water!"
Although his second brother had prejudices against my Intercepting Sect in the past, he still hadn't forgotten that they, the Three Pure Ones, were blood brothers!
He looked at Primordial Lord and said solemnly, "Thank you, elder brother, for today's matter."
Primordial Lord didn't speak, just nodded slightly before leaving the Palace of Empress Nuwa.
Although the Three Pure Ones appeared harmonious, Primordial Lord understood clearly in his heart that the Heavenly Origin Sect and Intercepting Sect had clashed too fiercely before. To restore their relationship, they would need to take things slowly. Otherwise, proposing the Unification of the Three Teachings now would have a low success rate.
After Primordial Lord left, Tongtian and Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality didn't linger either, departing the Palace of Empress Nuwa.
"What exactly happened to Primordial Lord?"
Nuwa watched Primordial Lord's departing back, her gaze complicated.
Primordial Lord's transformation was too great, making her extremely curious.
Furthermore, the matter of the Three Pure Ones joining forces at the Palace of Empress Nuwa today to force out the Two Sages of the West had already revealed clues. The Three Pure Ones in the future might very well reconcile!
And if the Three Pure Ones were to unite, the West would likely suffer!
