Laozi looked pale.
He looked at Tongtian, looking at that clear but crazy face.
A bone-chilling chill surged through my heart.
Tongtian is crazy.
This Tongtian is betting on itself.
He not only wants to put Jie Sect Disciples on the list, but also Chan Sect Disciple, he also wants to put Human Sect disciples on the list, and he also wants to put Western Sect disciples on the list.
Even... we have to put them Sage on the list.
Is this Tongtian's counterattack?
Is this Interception Sect's trump card?
Laozi took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions in his heart.
He turned his head and looked at Hongjun.
The Grey Clad Figure stood among Chaos with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless.
It was as if Tongtian's astonishing words were just a breeze blowing in my face.
Laozi spoke with a hoarse voice, "Dao Ancestor, Tongtian, what do you think?"
Hongjun didn't look at him.
Just looking at Tongtian.
A very faint light was flashing in the depths of those eyes that had been indifferent for endless years.
The light was very faint.
So faint that it is almost unnoticeable.
But if someone was watching, he would definitely be able to see it.
That's... appreciation.
It is an appreciation that is suppressed to the extreme.
"Tongtian."
Hongjun spoke in a calm voice:
"You want Sage to be on the list?"
Tongtian nodded.
"Yes."
"Since calamity is measured, it should be fair."
"Since it is a given, it should be treated equally."
"The lives of the disciples are lives, and the lives of Sages are also lives."
"Disciples are on the list, Sage should also be on the list."
"Otherwise, this Investiture of the Gods List is just a tool for the strong to oppress the weak."
"This Heavenly Dao's Predetermined Number is just an excuse for Sage to control the ants."
"Disciple is not convinced."
The two words fell like thunder.
Laozi was shocked all over.
Yuanshi's face turned pale.
Jieyin Zhunti looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Nuwa lowered his head and clenched his hands.
Hongjun looked at Tongtian and was silent for a long time.
"What do you want?"
Tongtian raised his eyes and spoke word by word:
"Three Sects Signing, Investiture of the Gods List out."
"The people on the list are not divided into Sage, Quasi-Saint, and Golden Immortal."
"Only talk about Karma, only talk about luck, only talk about fixed numbers."
"Whoever deserves to be on the list will be on the list."
"Sage should be on the list, Sage will be on the list."
"The disciple should be on the list, the disciple should be on the list."
"Fair and just, treat everyone equally."
"In this way, the disciple signed the pledge."
The sound fell, and Purple Heaven Palace was filled with solemn silence.
Laozi Close your eyes and stop talking.
Yuanshi grits his teeth, Jade Purity Immortal Light is uncertain.
Jieyin has a low Xuanfo number, Zhunti looks pale.
Nuwa raised his head and looked at Tongtian.
In those eyes, there was hatred, fear, and even an inexplicable hint of... despair.
Tongtian.
This move of yours is too cruel.
You bet yourself on it.
Bet Interception Sect.
Bet Chan Sect.
Bet Human Sect.
Bet Western Sect.
Put everyone on the line.
If Dao Ancestor agrees, Sage will also be on the list.
How many of us can survive?
How many are left?
Nuwa dare not think about it.
She just looked at the Grey Clad Figure.
Looking at the supreme being who controls Heavenly Dao.
Wait for his reply.
Hongjun stands among Chaos, his eyes as deep as an abyss.
He looked at Tongtian.
Looking at that clear and stubborn face.
Looking into those Sword Light eyes that are flowing but unwavering.
Silence.
A long time.
He spoke slowly:
"Sage is on the list, it's a must."
"It's just that Sage True Spirit Entrust to Heavenly Dao can be resurrected even after death."
"Whether it's on the list or not, it doesn't mean much."
Tongtian Hearing this, the sneer at the corner of his mouth deepened.
"Dao Ancestor That's wrong."
"Sage True Spirit Entrust to Heavenly Dao, even if the body dies, it can be resurrected."
"But what about after resurrection?"
"Is the cultivation still there? Is the foundation still there? Is Dao Path still there?"
"Senior brother Nuwa is a lesson learned from the past."
"She has been resurrected, but her cultivation has been greatly damaged and her foundation has been shaken."
"If Dao Ancestor hadn't used Heavenly Dao's origin to help her, she would still be Quasi-Saint."
"This is the price for Sage to be on the list."
"It means the body dies and the Tao disappears, it means the cultivation level plummets, it means that hundreds of millions of dollars spent in hard work will turn into nothing in one day."
"Dao Ancestor said it doesn't make much sense?"
"Disciple begs to differ."
The voice fell, and Nuwa looked pale.
She looked at Tongtian, with hatred in her eyes.
But beneath that hatred, there was even more fear.
Tongtian is right.
She is resurrected.
But she lost too much.
Saint Foundation is damaged, cultivation level has dropped, and the source of hundreds of millions of dollars accumulated, there is not even one out of ten.
If Dao Ancestor hadn't helped her with Heavenly Dao's origin, she would still be Quasi-Saint.
This is the price for Sage to be on the list.
That is when the body dies and the Tao disappears.
That is the plummeting level of cultivation.
It means that hundreds of millions of dollars will be spent in hard work, but all of a sudden it will be reduced to nothing.
If she is on the list again...
Nuwa dare not think about it.
Hongjun looked at Tongtian, silent.
A long time.
He nodded slowly:
"You're right."
"Sage is on the list, the price is not small."
"But if you want Sage to be on the list, you want to be Heavenly Dao's enemy."
"You just want to be my enemy."
"Tongtian, have you thought clearly?"
Tongtian looked at him, his eyes as calm as water.
"Disciple thinks very clearly."
"Investiture of the Gods Tribulation is the disaster set by Dao Ancestor for the Interception Sect."
"Disciple admits."
"But if the disciple doesn't recognize it, it's unfair."
"Why is Jie Sect Disciples the only one on the list?"
"Why can Chan Sect, Human Sect, and Western Sect stay out of the matter?"
"Why are Sages so high up and just sit back and watch their disciples die?"
"This is unfair."
"Disciple is not convinced."
"So disciples have to fight."
"Strive for fairness."
"Fight for one and treat everyone equally."
"I want Investiture of the Gods List to be on the list even if Sage is."
The sound fell, and Purple Heaven Palace fell into dead silence.
Laozi opened his eyes and looked at Tongtian.
The depths of those once Pure and Non-Action eyes are now full of complexity.
Yuanshi closes eyes, Jade Purity Immortal Light flickers on and off.
Jieyin Zhunti looked at each other and saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.
Nuwa lowered his head and said nothing.
Hongjun looked at Tongtian, silent.
A long time.
He spoke slowly:
"Okay."
"It's up to you."
"Sage also wants to be on the list."
"Treat everyone equally, be fair and just."
The four words fell, like an edict from heaven and earth.
Laozi was shocked all over.
Yuanshi opened his eyes suddenly.
Jieyin Zhunti looked pale.
Nuwa looked up, his eyes full of despair.
Dao Ancestor... Agreed?
Sage also wants to be on the list?
This...
Yuanshi spoke with a hoarse voice, "Dao Ancestor!"
Hongjun raised his hand to interrupt him.
"No need to say any more."
"Tongtian is right."
"In the midst of calamities, everyone depends on his ability."
"Sage is no exception."
"On Investiture of the Gods List, Sage also needs to be signed."
"Whoever deserves to be on the list will be on the list."
"No one can stay out of it."
The sound fell, and Purple Heaven Palace fell into dead silence.
Laozi slowly closed his eyes, and the gray and defeated look on his withered face became even thicker.
Yuanshi gritted his teeth, Jade Purity Immortal Light surged like a tide, but he did not dare to say any more.
Jieyin chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice with a sad voice.
Zhunti lowered his head and his hands trembled.
Nuwa fell to the ground, his face as pale as paper.
Tongtian looked at Five Saints, looking at the pale faces.
A smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The smile was very light, but it carried an unabashed cheerfulness.
"Senior brothers and junior fellow apprentices."
"Since Dao Ancestor has agreed, let's just deposit it."
"Sage also wants to be on the list."
"Treat everyone equally, be fair and just."
"Whoever deserves to be on the list will be on the list."
"No one can stay out of it."
In the Purple Heaven Palace, there was dead silence.
Laozi closed his eyes and said nothing.
Yuanshi's face turned pale.
Jieyin Zhunti lowered his head and lowered his eyes.
Nuwa fell to the ground.
Five Saints, no one dares to sign.
Tongtian looked at them with calm eyes.
"What? Weren't you still talking plausibly just now?"
"Now that Dao Ancestor agreed, you didn't sign it?"
