Bai Chen's Counterattack!
Ziyishi bowed to Bai Chen Bai Chen, and to be honest, she was a little afraid of being punished by him.
Although it was Taiqing Laozi who exposed the mine, Ziyishi understood that it was normal for Bai Chen to take his anger out on him as the person in charge of the mine.
"No need for formalities!"
While gesturing for Ziyishi to dispense with the formalities, Bai Chen also reassured her:
"What does this have to do with you? This great god is not an unreasonable Innate Divine Beast."
Bai Chen never intended to punish the Ziyishi. After all, it was a battle between himself, Nuwa, and Taiqing Laozi, and what did it have to do with a nobody like the Ziyishi?
"Thank you so much Great God Bai Chen!"
Seeing that Bai Chen had no intention of punishing her, Ziyishi quickly bowed and thanked him.
The tension in my heart finally eased at this moment.
"Ziyishi, go and summon all the miners who have been mining for a long time, who are honest miners, and who have seen Taiqing Laozi during their mining careers."
Bai Chen gave an instruction to Ziyishi, Ziyishi, although not understanding Bai Chen's intention, still complied.
Chapter 448 Bai Chen's Counterattack!
Soon, the Ziyishi brought some miners to Bai Chen. Among these miners were several Daluo Golden Immortal, all of whom had been captured by Bai Chen to mine in their early years.
Upon seeing Bai Chen, the miners immediately bowed and greeted him, saying:
"We have met the Great God Bai Chen!"
These miners were captured by Bai Chen Bai Chen, who was their enemy.
However, this enemy Bai Chen, possessed terrifying cultivation and magical power, causing these miners to dare not harbor any resentment towards Bai Chen in their eyes; all they saw was fear.
They feared that Bai Chen was hungry and wanted to devour them as food.
"You have been mining for me for many years, and your merits have been fulfilled. I have decided to release you."
But when you regain your freedom, you must tell the outside world everything you saw and heard in the mine."
Bai Chen decided to release the miners. Since Taiqing Laozi had already exposed the mine's affairs, Great God Bai Chen, would launch a suicidal attack.
Anyway, Great God Bai Chen's reputation isn't great, so it doesn't matter if it gets any worse.
As for Taiqing Laozi, who claims to be the true Pangu's Orthodox Lineage and the head of the Three Pure Ones Saint Taiqing, it's unclear whether he can withstand it.
Bai Chen used the Monster Summoning Banner to remove the Primordial Spirit Mark from the miners, signaling that they could leave.
But they lingered, bowing and greeting Bai Chen, saying:
"Great God Bai Chen, we are unwilling to leave. We are willing to mine for you on Shouyang Mountain."
Do you really think these miners have been honestly mining for Bai Chen all this time?
Rather, they are shrewd!
The Shouyang Mountain mine is a purgatory, and isn't the vast Primordial World another great purgatory as well?
Mining at the Shouyang Mountain mine is tiring, but generally there's no danger to your life.
After all, this mine belongs to Bai Chen, and it's also connected to Nuwa and Houtu.
Although returning to the Primordial World land would grant freedom, the Primordial World land was also rife with conflict between myriad races and the struggle for supremacy between the witches and demons.
With their strength, they were not qualified to survive in the Primordial World land. They would either be captured and used as cannon fodder, become food for others, or be captured and used to forge weapons.
It's better to just honestly mine for Bai Chen, save my life, and I can even cultivate a bit while mining.
"Ha ha!"
Seeing this, Bai Chen laughed loudly, glanced at the miners, and said with a smile:
"You're not honest, you're some shrewd fellows, and I'm quite pleased about that!"
"This great god grants you a great opportunity: travel to the Primordial World world for a thousand years and truthfully tell the outside world what you encountered in your mines."
A thousand years later, when you return to Shouyang Mountain, you will no longer be miners, but overseers of the mine, and thus receive the protection of this great god."
Bai Chen likes smart people, which is why he gave these guys a chance to get out of trouble.
"Great God Bai Chen. We will do as you instruct."
These seemingly honest fellows were actually incredibly shrewd. Now that they saw an opportunity to get ashore, they quickly bowed and bid farewell to Bai Chen before immediately taking action.
After dealing with the miners' problem, Bai Chen instructed Ziyishi:
"Ziyishi, arrange for some miners to build a temporary Temporary Palace on Shouyang Mountain, so that this great deity and Nuwa can preach to the human race in the future."
Nuwa: Bad Cat, what do you mean by making it convenient for you and me to preach to the human race?
I was clearly preaching the gospel for humanity all by myself, while you were just sleeping right next to me.
"I humbly obey the Imperial Decree of the Great God Bai Chen."
Upon hearing that the Temporary Palace was built to facilitate the spread of Buddhism among the human race, Ziyishi was overjoyed.
Under Bai Chen's arrangement, the matter of the Shouyang Mountain mine was completely exposed to the Primordial World.
All living beings in the Primordial World despised Bai Chen's evil deeds. Seeing that their condemnation had made the evil forces of Bai Chen submit and release a group of miners, the living beings in the Primordial World became very proud.
As expected, when the power of all living beings is gathered together, even the great Primordial World of the primordial world, backed by a sage, must be avoided by Bai Chen.
Bai Chen: Avoid their sharp edge. You ants don't even deserve to be mentioned.
In other words, this great god wants to use you ants to disgust the Supreme Laozi Taiqing, otherwise this great god would definitely let you know how heavy 'reason' is.
The beings of the Primordial World soon discovered a serious problem: according to the released miners, the mines on Shouyang Mountain were established before Laozi of Taiqing moved Shouyang Mountain.
This means Laozi Taiqing knew about the slave mines a long time ago, but he didn't tell anyone.
This is not the most crucial issue. The most crucial issue is that, according to the released miners from Shouyang Mountain, some of them saw Taiqing Laozi descend upon the mine in his early years, or Xuan Du came to the mine to demand the Shouyang Copper.
This led the beings of the Primordial World world to suspect that Taiqing Laozi and Bai Chen were in cahoots, and that Taiqing Laozi was also involved in the mining affair.
Moreover, the timing of Taiqing Laozi's exposure of the Shouyang Mountain mine was inappropriate, leading the beings of the Primordial World to suspect that Taiqing Laozi and Bai Chen's group had fallen out, resulting in an unequal distribution of spoils and a premeditated act of revenge.
It must be said that Bai Chen's suicide attack successfully nailed Taiqing Laozi to the pillar of shame, causing his reputation to plummet.
Bai Chen's counterattack was so powerful that Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian, the two younger brothers of Taiqing Laozi, were both accidentally injured.
This led many among the Primordial World beings to suspect that Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian had also participated in the division of spoils.
Kunlun Ruins Yuxu Palace...
Yuanshi Tianzun was furious because he had been wrongly injured by rumors.
"Brother, you've really put me in a terrible situation!"
"Brother, with the mess you've made, no wonder Master Hongjun had to step down as acting head of the Xuanmen sect. If I were Master Hongjun, I would also step down as acting head of the Xuanmen sect."
Yuanshi Tianzun complained about Taiqing Laozi, knowing that the latter's actions not only tarnished his own reputation, but also the reputation of the entire Three Pure Ones Pangu's Orthodox Lineage.
"Well!"
Yuanshi Tianzun sighed. He was too lazy to concern himself with the matter. It was more important to prove his innocence and save face.
"By the Yuqing Yuanshi, swear a great oath to prove my innocence, that I have no connection whatsoever with the Shouyang Mountain mine..."
The Yuanshi Tianzun directly proclaimed to Primordial World living beings in the primordial world, swearing to prove his innocence.
After all, he had no connection to this matter, which is why he dared to make such a solemn oath.
No sooner had Yuanshi Tianzun sworn an oath to prove his innocence than Sect Master Tongtian also copied his oath and swore an oath to prove his innocence.
Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian both made solemn oaths to prove their innocence, while they chose to ignore their elder brother, Taiqing Laozi.
One sentence isn't enough to control it!
Great Scarlet Heaven Eight Views Palace...
Taiqing Laozi could only react with impotent rage to Bai Chen's counterattack.
He also wanted to swear an oath to prove his innocence, just like Yuanshi Tianzun and Sect Master Tongtian, but he couldn't.
Although he wasn't directly involved in the Shouyang Mountain mine incident, he tacitly approved of it and didn't stop it.
Furthermore, the Eight Views Palace, located on Shouyang Mountain, had previously provided a degree of protection to the mine.
Taiqing Laozi was so angry that he wanted to settle accounts with Bai Chen, but he could sense that a sage was watching him.
The other party is either Nuwa or Houtu.
Bai Chen, whom Taiqing Laozi hated to the bone, was currently in Houtu's Houtu.
When Houtu was grooming Bai Chen, she asked:
"Little White, you've ruined Taiqing Laozi's reputation by getting involved yourself. Aren't you afraid he'll come after you?"
In response to Houtu's question, Bai Chen turned to look at her.
(●?(工)?●)
After a moment of surprise, Bai Chen turned to Houtu and said:
"Houtu, considering how many eons we've known each other, I'll tell you a secret for free."
"..."
Bai Chen then told Houtu about Taiqing Laozi's ability to One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones with a single breath, and the cultivation method for this ability.
After all, Nuwa knew about the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, so Bai Chen naturally couldn't show favoritism and told her about it.
Of course, Bai Chen's actions were also a reminder to Houtu to be wary of Taiqing Laozi's One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.
Of course, Bai Chen estimated that even if Taiqing Laozi used the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, he still wouldn't be able to defeat Houtu, who was the Earthly Dao Spokesperson.
After Houtu learned about the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, she lifted Bai Chen up:
"Little White, you've become so sensible today! You actually told me such a big secret on your own initiative, and you didn't even ask for anything in return!"
