Encountering the Three Virtuous Ladies of Sanxiao and the Martial God of Wealth, Triggering a Choice Again
Chapter 004: Chance Encounter with the Three Virtuous Ladies of Sanxiao and the Martial God of Wealth, Triggering Another Choice
Cangyuan was momentarily stunned upon hearing this vast, boundless sacred voice.
He casually calculated with his fingers.
Understanding the current era.
"So that's it. At this point in time, the Six Saints have already taken their places, and the War of the Witches and Demons is about to erupt."
"It seems the Three Pure Ones have officially parted ways as well. I've just come out and happened to run into that Saint of the Sect of Interception establishing his dojo on Jin'ao Island, opening his mountain gates wide to recruit disciples."
Cangyuan murmured.
"Little Pearl, what level of great power is this existence? So formidable."
The World Purifying White Lotus's surprised voice rang out in Cangyuan's mind.
Cangyuan answered without hesitation: "A Saint, Master."
The World Purifying White Lotus asked curiously: "How strong is a Saint?"
Cangyuan replied seriously: "Very, very strong. Strong enough that one slap from them could send the two of us to the scrap heap."
Hearing this, the World Purifying White Lotus was a bit frightened: "Then we'd better stay far away from the Saint, Master."
Cangyuan's eyes flickered with sharp light, his gaze firm: "No! If it were any other Saint, I would definitely hide far away. But this Saint of the Sect of Interception—not only will I not hide, I will stick close to him!"
There were two reasons.
First, Sect Master Tongtian had the other twenty-four Sea Calming Pearls.
If he arrived too late, they would surely be bestowed upon Zhao Gongming by Sect Master Tongtian.
Cangyuan planned to join the Sect of Interception and see if Sect Master Tongtian would grant him those twenty-four Sea Calming Pearls, considering they shared the same origin.
If Sect Master Tongtian refused and continued to follow the original trajectory of destiny by giving the twenty-four Sea Calming Pearls to Zhao Gongming, Cangyuan could still build a good relationship with Zhao Gongming in advance.
To prepare for exchanging for the Sea Calming Pearls in the future.
As for the second reason...
Naturally, it was the choice of destiny.
"Ding! Detected that the Shangqing Saint has established a dojo on Jin'ao Island. Soon, he will preach the Dao to all spirits, widely recruit disciples, and create the grand spectacle of Myriad Immortals Come to Court.
Choice One: Refuse to listen to the Dao, flee far away, and avoid excessive entanglement of Karma with the Sect of Interception. After all, the future fate of the Sect of Interception is well known to all.
Reward: High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Fire Spirit Pearl!
Choice Two: Our path of cultivation is like sailing against the current; we must face difficulties head-on. What are the mere 'setbacks' of the Sect of Interception's future? Use the three-foot azure sword in hand to shatter the shackles! Go listen to the Dao and successfully take the Shangqing Saint as your master.
Reward: High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Water Spirit Pearl!"
Between the two choices, Cangyuan unhesitatingly picked the second!
Are you kidding? The twenty-four Sea Calming Pearls in the hands of the Shangqing Saint were tied to the very foundation of Cangyuan's origins. How could he give up so easily?
Moreover, walking the Prehistoric World was all about identity and background.
Throughout the entire Prehistoric World, aside from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, whose status could surpass the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao?
Among the Six Saints of the Heavenly Dao, the two from the Western Teach were out of the question. Even if Cangyuan starved to death or jumped from the Prehistoric World into the Boundless Chaos, he would never go to the Western Teach.
Nuwa had not established a sect.
She resided high in Wa Huang Heaven, ignoring the affairs of the Prehistoric World.
Not worth considering.
That left only the Three Pure Ones.
Taiqing had only taken one disciple from the Human Race after proving his Sainthood through them.
The chances of joining his sect were very, very slim.
As for Yuqing, the Primordial Lord of Heaven...
Although Cangyuan was not born of dampness or hatched from an egg, Yuqing did not possess the Sea Calming Pearls!
That did not align with his interests.
Finally, there was Shangqing, Sect Master Tongtian.
Moreover, after the fall of the Witches and Demons, the strongest Daoist Tradition in the future would be the Sect of Interception.
Joining the Sect of Interception was not a bad choice.
As for the fate of the Sect of Interception in the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation, Cangyuan could only say he would do his best.
If the Heavenly Mandate could not be defied and the final outcome could not be changed, then Cangyuan would return to Fangzhang Immortal Island and look after himself.
Of course, the most important thing was still the Sea Calming Pearls!
The Sea Calming Pearls!
After making his choice, Cangyuan immediately fled toward Jin'ao Island.
What? A mighty Golden Immortal couldn't tear through space and walk the void?
In the Prehistoric World, that really wasn't possible.
The spatial structure of the Prehistoric World was incredibly stable—how could a mere Golden Immortal like him shake it?
The Prehistoric World was vast, boundless and endless.
The entire Prehistoric World seemed to have no edge to it.
So vast that it made traveling beings despair.
If you can't find the title by searching, try searching by author—maybe it just changed names!
Cangyuan was exactly like that.
"Damn it, I've been flying for a thousand years, and I can't even see a shadow of Jin'ao Island. If the East Sea alone is this big, just how vast must the entire Prehistoric World be?"
By calculating and locking onto Jin'ao Island's position with his fingers, Cangyuan didn't think he had strayed off course.
"Little Pearl, do you like this sea view?"
At that moment, the World Purifying White Lotus spoke up.
Cangyuan was puzzled: "No, why?"
The World Purifying White Lotus said innocently: "If you don't like the sea view, then why are you flying so slowly?"
Cangyuan: Old man on the subway, question marks???
"It's not that I want to fly this slow, it's that I can only fly this fast."
The World Purifying White Lotus: "Then why don't you let me carry you? I'm really fast."
Cangyuan shook his head: "No way. I'm just a Golden Immortal monkey stepping on a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure. Xiao Bai, are you afraid I won't die fast enough? Without the strength to protect myself, I can't show off, understand?"
"This is called being steady."
"Ohhh~"
The World Purifying White Lotus let out two vague ohs.
Whether it truly understood or not was unclear.
Just then, a bloody, sky-shrouding Sha Qi erupted from the sea ahead, surging across millions of miles of ocean, forming terrifying waves of Sha Qi that blasted Cangyuan's robe, making it flap loudly.
"Is someone fighting here?"
"The aura is strong—probably a senior realm expert dueling."
"I'd better keep my distance."
Cangyuan thought to himself.
Before he could detour away, he saw four streaks of light in different colors flying rapidly toward him.
Behind those four streaks, a ten-thousand-zhang flood dragon wreathed in surging Sha Qi was in hot pursuit.
That fierce Sha Qi—one look and you'd explode.
"Damn! These guys have no martial ethics, leading such a troublesome senior realm enemy straight to me!"
Cangyuan cursed.
He wanted to flee, but then he heard a mature, steady woman's voice: "Fellow Daoist, go quickly! This Sha Dragon is a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm powerhouse! Its strength is terrifying—not something we can handle!"
With that, the four streaks of light changed direction.
They no longer flew toward Cangyuan.
And the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm Sha Dragon naturally wouldn't give up the four tasty morsels right in front of it, turning to chase a farther target instead.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, the four streaks of light and the Sha Dragon vanished.
"These... these people are actually pretty nice."
"They know not to drag others into trouble."
Cangyuan looked in that direction and said.
"Whatever. A Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm Sha Dragon—top-tier killing power. No way I can handle that now. Better to cut my losses and run, before that Sha Dragon eats those four Dao friends and turns back to chase me."
Just as Cangyuan was about to leave this place of trouble, the system notification rang in his mind again.
"Ding! Detected host encountering the Three Virtuous Ladies of Sanxiao and the Martial God of Wealth, but their current situation seems unfavorable.
Choice One: Play it safe, stay out of trouble. After all, these four are beings with great fortune—they won't fall easily. Better to slip away.
Reward: Wind Law Fragment*1!
Choice Two: Step forward, kill the Sha Dragon, and build goodwill with the four future outer disciples of the Jie Sect in advance.
Reward: Law of Clouds Fragment*1."
The Choice of Destiny triggered again.
Cangyuan was a bit surprised.
Those four Dao friends just now were actually Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, Bixiao, and Zhao Gongming, the Martial God of Wealth he had believed in most in his past life!
All four of them were Innate Beings.
Born from the womb of heaven and earth.
Among them, the Three Virtuous Ladies of Sanxiao were transformed from the Three Innate Colorful Clouds of the world.
The Martial God of Wealth was formed from a wisp of innate clear wind of heaven and earth.
Their bone roots were extraordinary.
In the future, they would shine brilliantly during the Investiture of the Gods Calamity.
Sending the Chan Teach Twelve Golden Immortals fleeing with their heads in their hands.
Wait!
Legend says the Three Virtuous Ladies of Sanxiao wielded two most famous Spiritual Treasures.
The Primordial Golden Dipper and the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors.
That Sha Dragon carried surging Sha Qi, with Yin Yang intertwined within its body... Could it be that he was the future Golden Flood Dragon Scissors?!
