A Spirit Root or a Calamity?

"True Person, what should we do now?" an elder asked.

"It's simple. We'll pack our things immediately and leave the Heavenly Court. We'll hide from the Heavenly Court first, and then find another way out. I believe that as long as we hide well, the Heavenly Court can't do anything to us," Taishang Laojun said coldly.

"Yes, we are willing to leave with the True Person," everyone answered in unison.

"Very good, let's act immediately. Pack your things right away, and once we're done, we'll set off for the Taiyi Sect," said Taishang Laojun.

"Yes, we'll go pack our things right away," said one of the elders from the Taishang Peak.

In no time, everyone at Taiyi Temple sprang into action, gathering all the treasures and resources of the Taiyi Sect. However, they did not transport them to the Taishang Sect, because these resources had all been sealed away by True Person Taishang. Once True Person Taishang left the Heavenly Court, these resources would naturally explode.

"Taiyi Temple, let's go." Taishang Laojun waved to the crowd, then flew out of Taiyi Temple first, transforming into a purple Sword-Ray and flying into the distance.

Seeing this, everyone else followed suit.

"Boom, boom, boom!!" Palaces were smashed to pieces, and the entire Taiyi Temple was destroyed, leaving behind a scene of utter devastation.

A group of elders, protectors, disciples, law enforcement team, duty team, and high-ranking members of the Taiyi Temple were all injured by the Taiyi Temple, lying on the ground groaning in pain.

At this moment, a Golden Immortal- level figure led dozens of Golden Immortal experts to arrive. As soon as they entered, they surrounded Taiyi Temple and the people of Taishang Temple.

"How dare you! Who are you to cause trouble at Taiyi Temple? Do you know that I am the third disciple of True Person Taiyi? You are courting death!" the Golden Immortal said angrily.

The dozens of Golden Immortal from Taiyi Temple stood behind that Golden Immortal, their faces filled with arrogance.

"Heh, so you're a disciple of Master True Person Taiyi? Have you ever heard of my young master's name? He's True Person Taiyi's only disciple, someone even your True Person Taishang wouldn't dare offend. Do you think we're afraid of you? Get lost! If you don't leave, I'll take you down." The Golden Immortal said arrogantly.

"Hahahaha, True Person Taiyi doesn't dare to provoke him, do you think I'm afraid of you? Today I'll capture you and bring you before True Person Taiyi, and see how True Person Taiyi deals with you." After saying this, the Golden Immortal rushed forward and struck the other Golden Immortal with a palm.

When the Golden Immortal saw that the other Golden Immortal's strength was actually a level below his own, he immediately felt much more at ease.

"Hahaha, True Person Taiyi, today I'll capture your disciple and show you my power!" The Golden Immortal laughed arrogantly.

True Person Taiyi's face was terribly gloomy as he coldly stared at the Golden Immortal.

He never expected that the Taiyi Sect would betray him. Now he can't confirm whether the Taiyi Sect has truly betrayed the Heavenly Court, but that's no longer important.

"Hmph, what a fool! How dare you challenge my disciple's authority! Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of my disciple!" After saying this, the True Person Taishang struck out with his palm, knocking the Golden Immortal to the ground.

The Golden Immortal was sent flying by a single blow, crashing to the ground and spitting blood, his face filled with utter horror.

The Golden Immortal quickly got up from the ground, turned around, and ran away.

The True Person Taishang would not allow the other party to leave so easily, so he slapped him down, sending the Golden Immortal flying backward and crashing heavily to the ground.

Although that Golden Immortal was powerful, he was still as weak as an ant in front of the True Person Taishang.

"True Person Taishang Master, spare my life! True Person Taishang, spare my life!!" The Golden Immortal knelt on the ground, desperately kowtowing and begging for mercy, kowtowing repeatedly.

"What are you doing? Get up right now! Didn't you want to provoke my disciple? If you have the guts, stand up and fight my disciple!" the True Person Taishang said coldly.

The Golden Immortal trembled with fear, scrambled to his feet, and fled in panic, not daring to linger. He was terrified that if he hesitated even slightly, he would be killed by the True Person Taishang.

The True Person Taishang did not pursue them. Instead, he looked at the crowd and shouted, "I do not wish for news of today's events to reach the Heavenly Court. Otherwise, even if I die, I will not allow our Taiyi Temple to enjoy peace."

"Yes, True Person Taishang, we promise we won't leak this out," everyone quickly replied.

"Alright, you may all leave now. We're going." True Person Taishang flew away first.

The others also followed the True Person Taishang and flew away.

After they flew away, the dozens of injured Golden Immortal got up from the ground, staring at Taiyi Temple with livid faces.

"Damn bastard, we'll remember this! One day, we'll raze Taiyi Temple to the ground and tear True Person Taiyi to pieces!"

"Yes, True Person Jindan, rest assured, we will definitely avenge you."

"Hmph, once we regain our strength, we will make True Person Taiyi regret it. How dare they betray the Heavenly Court! We will make them pay for their actions."

"True Person Jindan, what should we do next?"

"Hmph, I've already reported this matter to True Person Taiyi. I'm sure he won't let True Person Taiyi off the hook once he finds out."

"So what should we do now? Are we just going to wait like this?"

"Do you think True Person Taiyi is a fool? If the people of the Taiyi Sect don't know about this kind of thing, then True Person Taiyi is not worthy of Taiyi Temple."

"True Person Taiyi must have foreseen this day coming for the Taiyi Sect, otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to come in person. Those people from the Taiyi Sect are all cunning and treacherous; how could he not have been prepared?"

"So what should we do now?"

"Let's wait and see how True Person Taiyi handles this matter."

"Good."

They all nodded.

"Alright, let's go back and recover. As soon as we get a chance, we'll storm into the Taiyi Sect wipe them out."

"Yes, True Person Jindan," the crowd replied respectfully.

"Alright, all of you may leave. Without my permission, no one is allowed to approach Taiyi Temple even a step," the True Person Taishang said coldly.

"Yes, True Person Taishang, then this subordinate will take his leave." The crowd replied respectfully and then withdrew.

After everyone left, a hint of murderous intent flashed across the True Person Taishang's face.

"Taiyi Sect, you forced me into this situation. If you hadn't coveted the resources of the Heavenly Realm and wanted to seize Heavenly Realm, none of this would have happened."

After the True Person Taishang finished speaking, he flew away.
