Just as Yuanshi was reading the Great Dao Diary.

On the other side.

It is at least tens of millions of miles away from Jin'ao Island, the site of the Interception Sect.

There were two people dressed in simple, plain Daoist robes.

Slightly disheveled, he charged off from east to west!

Although its body was surrounded by a captivating Hunyuan Qi.

But that aura seemed somewhat strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

It even shows a trend of weakening.

Even if it doesn't lower one's cultivation level.

But it has almost hit rock bottom!

These two people are none other than...

These are the Two Sages of the West, after their battle with Tongtian, fled regardless of the consequences!

Jieyin and Zhunti!

Now.

Beneath their feet.

There was a golden lotus that emitted a dazzling golden light.

It is constantly emanating waves of merit.

While protecting them, they also began to repair the wounds on their bodies and souls.

However, even so, there are still some limitations, and it is not possible to recover to the original state quickly!

After a while...

Jieyin, who was at the forefront, noticed that there was no fluctuation of Tongtian's aura behind him.

His speed gradually decreased, and his face was already filled with a gloomy expression.

When Zhunti was not far behind, flew to his side.

Jieyin couldn't help but Zhunti.

Damn it!

"I never expected that Tongtian would actually dare to attack us!"

"Wasn't he the one who respected the Dao Ancestor the most before? When the Great Calamity broke out, Tongtian immediately went into seclusion and left the Interception Sect. Even when the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chan Sect came to attack, Tongtian told his disciples to handle it themselves."

"Why did your attitude change so quickly this time?"

"Not only have they become so aggressive, but they've even attacked the Chan Sect and us one after another! They show absolutely no mercy! They don't give us any face at all!"

Upon hearing Jieyin's angry shout, Zhunti's face turned bitter.

A hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes!

"Yes! Those Four Immortal-Slaying Swords are incredibly powerful!"

"But if Senior Brother had used the Merit Golden Lotus for protection, he shouldn't have been injured so quickly, right?"

Upon hearing Zhunti's question, Jieyin sighed and said, "That's because I deliberately created a gap, which is why I was injured by that sword."

"There's no other way. Even if we get injured, we can't go head-to-head with Tongtian."

"Even with our strength, we are no match for Tongtian."

"That's still the territory of the Interception Sect."

"Moreover, this would put Tongtian in a position of being in the wrong, and no matter what, he wouldn't be able to justify himself to the Dao Ancestor!"

Zhunti helplessly.

"Senior brother's consideration is sound, but isn't the price we're paying too high?"

Jieyin glanced at him and said indifferently, "Does Junior Brother have any other way to safely escape from Tongtian's clutches?"

"..."

Upon hearing Jieyin's words, Zhunti was speechless.

If it were a head-on clash, even the two of them combined wouldn't be a match for the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords!

The act of Jieyin is equivalent to exchanging minimal losses for a clean getaway.

That's probably the best solution.

Seeing Zhunti's helpless expression, Jieyin comforted him, "Junior brother, don't worry."

"Let's rest for a bit, then head straight to the Purple Cloud Palace to lodge a complaint with Tongtian! We're injured! That would be terrible..."

Only.

The instructions to Jieyin had not yet faded.

Suddenly, a terrifying voice rang out from within his and Zhunti spirits.

It carries a strong Power of the Heavenly Dao and releases waves of astonishing Law of Hunyuan.

It came in.

"Tongtian, come immediately to the Purple Cloud Palace to see me!"

A majestic and domineering voice slowly descended.

Jieyin and Zhunti then turned around and looked at each other.

They both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes!

Immediately, a mocking expression crept onto his face.

"Hahaha!"

"Junior brother, we don't need to rush to pay our respects to the Dao Ancestor."

"The Dao Ancestor has summoned Tongtian! It's likely to demand an explanation!"

Jieyin burst out laughing. Upon hearing the Dao Ancestor's voice, even the anger in his heart subsided somewhat.

Zhunti, who was standing to one side, gradually relaxed his Zhunti furrowed brows.

"How could the Dao Ancestor, who is omniscient and omnipotent, not know about Tongtian's heinous acts?"

"I believe that the Dao Ancestor will give us an explanation!"

Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Jieyin his hands together, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and said.

"Junior brother, since Tongtian has already left the sect and met with the Dao Ancestor, why don't we invite Yuanshi and Taishang to go and investigate that small courtyard in the south of the Interception Sect?"

"After all, your Six Roots Pure Bamboo is still there."

"Let's seize this opportunity and take it; who knows, we might even stumble upon a great opportunity!"

Upon hearing Jieyin said, a glint flashed in Zhunti's eyes.

He Jieyin his hands together in prayer and said.

"Senior brother is so kind!"

"Wait a moment!"

"Since Tongtian was summoned by the Dao Ancestor, he probably wouldn't dare to delay for long, and he has likely already left the sect."

"Just now, during my battle with Tongtian, my Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree was knocked down by Tongtian."

"In our haste to leave the territory of the Interception Sect and deal with Tongtian's attack, we didn't have time to retrieve the treasure."

"Let's take this opportunity to summon him, and then we can set off again."

Upon hearing this...

The Jieyin nodded.

He didn't care much about this matter.

The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree is of extremely high grade and possesses immense offensive power.

But Tongtian was using the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords after all, so it's normal that he wasn't his match!

Moreover, Zhunti's realm is far inferior to Tongtian's.

It would also be difficult to defend against an enemy.

Only.

Jieyin awaits the time when Zhunti summons the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree.

But Zhunti's expression grew increasingly solemn, his brows furrowed, and a look of worry crept onto his face.

Seeing this.

A sense of Jieyin washed over Jieyin, and an ominous premonition spread through his heart.

He couldn't help but ask with concern.

"Junior brother, what happened?"

"Something went wrong with the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree?"

Upon hearing the Jieyin's question, Zhunti abruptly opened his eyes, a look of fear flashing in them, and exclaimed...

"Oh no."

"I can't sense the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree's aura at all..."

"It's as if it has vanished..."

Seeing the slightly frightened look on Zhunti, Jieyin taken aback and quickly said.

"Junior brother, don't be anxious. Wasn't this item crafted by your own body? Why can't you sense it?"

"Try sensing it again, but this time more carefully."

Zhunti nodded, and his primordial spirit power, along with the Hunyuan Qi, surged outwards!

It seems they are determined to find the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree!

But even after his divine sense probed for countless miles, it returned empty-handed once again!

There was absolutely no trace of the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree.

It was as if they had vanished into thin air in the Primordial World!

This time, Zhunti panicked.

Without the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, his combat power decreased by one level.

Now the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree is gone too.

That was his magic weapon for achieving enlightenment.

Without that magical artifact, he wouldn't even be able to unleash seventy percent of his Sage strength!

"Senior brother, if we can't find the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, that would be terrible!"

Seeing that Zhunti looked completely lost and bewildered.

He was in a hurry to escape and never imagined that the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree would disappear.

This treasure is intimately connected to his true form; such a situation is impossible!

So I didn't pay any attention.

As always, even if the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree were far away, Zhunti could summon it in an instant.

But now...

He couldn't sense the presence of the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree at all!

How could he not panic?

Seeing that Zhunti had lost his composure.

Jieyin was also extremely anxious.

During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, they had a grand scheme.

As Zhunti of equal strength, Zhunti must not be allowed to have any mishaps!

"Junior brother, don't panic!"

"The aura of the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree should be isolated, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Tongtian will certainly not take your magic weapon. Now that the Dao Ancestor has summoned you, if he senses the aura of your magic weapon, wouldn't he be admitting defeat without being asked?"

"Not only will you not get any benefits, but you'll also be severely reprimanded by the Dao Ancestor and have the treasure returned to you."

"Tongtian wouldn't be that stupid."

"Excluding that factor, it means that this item fell into a place where its aura could be suppressed."

"It has blocked your Sage aura, preventing you from detecting it."

"And the only place where the Interception Sect could block the aura of Sage, besides their Interception Sect, is that courtyard!"

Hearing the analysis from the Jieyin.

Zhunti was taken aback, his face full of worry. "But what if Tongtian hides him at the Interception Sect ground?"

Jieyin shook his head and said, "It's unlikely. If the Dao Ancestor summoned him, and he were hiding in the Interception Sect's dojo, the Dao Ancestor would surely know."

How about this?

"Junior brother, let's split up. I'll go to the Yuanshi Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain of the Chan Sect to meet with Yuanshi Tianzun and persuade him. Then I'll bring him and Taishang to join you!"

"Go and search for the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree around the Interception Sect."

"We should go and take a look at that courtyard. If it's there, that would be even better. If not, we'll go to the Purple Cloud Palace and file a complaint with Tongtian!"

Upon hearing this...

Zhunti emphatically.

The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree is not as important to him as the Six Roots Pure Bamboo; it is the very tool for him to attain enlightenment!

We absolutely cannot just throw it away like that.

"Senior brother, I'll be going now."

Jieyin his hands together, watching Zhunti leave in a hurry.

A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

"When did the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree become so weak?"

"Logically speaking, the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree shouldn't be gone, right?"

"Could it be that the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, Tongtian, are more powerful than previously thought, suppressing the aura of the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree?"

"That's quite possible. I wonder what the Interception Sect has been through these past few days."

"Since the progress has been so significant, we should pay even more attention to it."

"Now that all plans are in disarray, it's time to keep our promise to Taishang and Yuanshi."

I don't know what this agreement is.

But Jieyin the gloom on the guide's face, one can deduce that this agreement is not a good thing.
