"Ding! Quest issued: At Treasure Distribution Rock, block the way and stop Jieyin and Zhunti outright, making them return empty-handed. Reward: the complete Immortal Slaying Sword Formation diagram." The system issued the quest at just the right moment.
Upon hearing this, Xuanxiao ran straight to Tongtian's side, snatched the Immortal-Slaying Four Swords, and said, "Old Father, I'm going to play with the Immortal-Slaying Four Swords for a while." As he spoke, he hugged the swords, transformed into a streak of light, and ran off.
Tongtian helplessly shook his head. Yuanshi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Third Brother, stop shaking your head. He's our own child, and he won't lose your spiritual treasures. What are you afraid of?"
Yuanshi said, "Eldest Brother, guess what he's going to do with the Immortal-Slaying Four Swords?"
Laozi slapped his forehead and said, "Oh no. That kid must be going to set up the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation over Treasure Distribution Rock so he can slowly collect the treasures. That would offend most of the great powers in the Primordial Wilderness."
After Laozi's reminder, everyone in Purple Cloud Palace hurried toward Treasure Distribution Rock. When they arrived, they saw that Xuanxiao had indeed set up the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation along the only route from Purple Cloud Palace to Treasure Distribution Rock. He said, "Want to get past? Sure. Slap Jieyin or Zhunti once and you can pass. Otherwise, force your way through the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation."
As soon as he said this, everyone from Purple Cloud Palace fell silent. Zhunti looked at Tongtian with an aggrieved expression and said, "Senior Brother Tongtian, your son is acting like this. Aren't you going to discipline him?"
Tongtian shook his head and said, "My son is quite talented, and his cultivation isn't low either. I can't control him anyway. If you want to teach him a lesson, do it yourself. I absolutely won't stop you."
Yuanshi transmitted, "Third Brother, are you really going to let them bully Xiao'er?"
Tongtian replied, "How could I? If they really beat Xiao'er, we brothers will attack together. After achieving Sainthood, we won't die. But the two of them haven't achieved Sainthood yet, have they? We'll just beat them to death."
Yuanshi nodded and said, "That's right. How could the direct descendants of the Three Pure Ones be bullied by others?"
Zhunti was so enraged by Tongtian's words that the Three Corpses Gods within him leaped in fury. He immediately took out the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and charged into the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. Jieyin had no choice but to charge in as well.
Seeing the two enter the formation, Xuanxiao was delighted. He said, "Good. Since you've come, stay here." As he spoke, Xuanxiao communicated with the system through his primordial spirit and asked, "How do I use this Immortal Slaying Sword Formation? I only glanced at the diagram and arranged a model according to it. I don't know how to operate it."
In the system space, Luohu said, "Tell him to open his mind completely. When it comes to playing with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, you still have to rely on me."
A certain alluring older woman nodded and said to Xuanxiao, "Just open your mind."
Xuanxiao immediately emptied his Sea of Consciousness. Then Luohu slipped into his Sea of Consciousness and began operating the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation. Before long, Jieyin and Zhunti had been utterly impoverished. Well, they had directly reduced the future leaders of the Western Teachings to leaders of the Beggars' Sect. Their clothes were tattered, and their bodies were covered in sword scars.
Jieyin had no choice but to use the Twelve-grade Golden Lotus of Merit to protect himself, barely escaping the formation. Xuanxiao secretly complained, "That's it? System, you're terrible at operating this sword formation. You even let those two clowns escape."
In the system space, Luohu said, "This place is too close to Purple Cloud Palace. If I unleash the ultimate move of the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation directly, Hongjun will discover me."
Then the alluring older woman waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I'll explain." She then explained to Xuanxiao, "There's no helping it. We can only do this for now. This place is too close to Purple Cloud Palace. It'll be more effective to kill them after Hongjun Merges with the Dao in a few days."
Xuanxiao was speechless and said, "This time, those two won't be crying their eyes out, will they? Old Father is going to have his hands full."
In the system space, the alluring older woman covered her mouth and laughed. "Just kidding. Your father back then... He was always unyielding. Even when beaten, he refused to submit. Every time, your mother had to take matters into her own hands before she could have you. Do you really think Jieyin and Zhunti can control him?"
Zhunti wailed, "Senior Brother Tongtian, your son beat my Senior Brother and me into this state. Aren't you going to do anything?"
Tongtian shook his head and said, "You two are both great powers of the Primordial Wilderness. When you lose a fight, you run to the other party's parents to complain? Is that something a great power would do? Aren't you two being rather petty? You're both at the Quasi-Saint realm, yet you were beaten into this state two against one and still have the nerve to demand an explanation? Come, I'll beat you two up again." As he spoke, he took out the Qingping Sword and looked at the two with a beaming smile.
Zhunti was speechless and said, "Senior Brother, our master said that everyone should go to Treasure Distribution Rock to divide the treasures. Your son has blocked the road and won't let us pass. What do you have to say about that?"
Xuanxiao directly withdrew the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation and said, "Zhunti, don't make false accusations. I never stopped the other immortals from passing. I simply dislike you. Everyone, go to Treasure Distribution Rock and seize the treasures. I'll hold down those two shameless immortals, Jieyin and Zhunti, so they can't strip the land bare. What do you think?"
Among the immortals of Purple Cloud Palace, most didn't dare offend Jieyin and Zhunti. They silently left without daring to express support or opposition. Only Taiyi firmly supported Xuanxiao and said, "They see karmic affinity with everything every single day. They should be made unable to take anything at all. ╭(╯^╰)╮"
Xuanxiao said, "Go and seize more treasures. Better yet, seize my share too. The Western Teachings are impoverished every day, always mooching off others? Today, I'll make sure those two get nothing. With opportunities right in front of them yet out of reach, they'll die of frustration."
