CHAPTER 513: CHAPTER 456, SEVEN SAINTS DETERMINE WESTWARD JOURNEY

Ping Xin Niangniang gently asked, "What do you mean by stepping back?"

Zhunti Saint said, "Obtaining the scriptures in Western Heaven!"

Taishang’s expression changed, asking, "What do you mean?"

Jieyin Saint looked worriedly at Zhunti, thinking: Could my junior brother have gone too far?

Zhunti seemed not to notice Jieyin’s gaze and said with a smile, "In the far West in the Western Continent, the supreme Buddhist Law is propagated to enlighten the West, while in the East, a Great Sage learned that there are scriptures in the West that could enlighten all beings and reported this to the Human King.

Then, acting on the command of the Human King, he embarked on a westward journey, traversing mountains and rivers, encountering demons and ferocious ghosts along the way, and after going through eighty-one difficulties, he arrived at the Great Leiyin Temple in the West. With a heart devoted to Buddha, he sought the True Scriptures to bring back and propagate the Buddhist Law in the East, from then on Buddhism flourished greatly in the East.

Brothers and sisters, how do you like this story?"

Saint Tongtian slapped the table with a palm, bang—the entire table instantly shattered, and he stood up in anger and shouted, "Zhunti, how dare you insult my Xuanmen?"

Jieyin Saint’s eyelids twitched twice, relieved that he had changed the precious table in time.

Zhunti Saint, shocked, said, "Brother, I am willing to step back, surely you don’t just want to reap the benefits? Reciprocity is the way of peace."

Taishang calmly said, "Tongtian, sit down!"

Tongtian glanced at Taishang, huffily sat down, and looked at Zhunti Saint with an unfriendly gaze.

Taishang asked, "What do you two Niangniangs think?"

Nuwa Niangniang slowly said, "These two junior brothers are really pushing their advantage!"

Ping Xin Niangniang calmly said, "That’s your human affair, it has nothing to do with me."

Taishang Saint nodded and said, "Agreed!"

Jieyin Saint quickly said joyfully, "Thank you, brother, for understanding the greater good."

Zhunti Saint suddenly realized and said, "Right, there’s another thing that I need help with from my brothers and sisters, I hope none of you will delay." He looked at All Saints with a smile.

All the Saints looked towards Zhunti, now it was clear that Zhunti wanted to use the great trend of the Primordial World to suppress All Saints and let the Buddha Sect rise above Xuanmen.

But to avoid heavy losses for the Eastern Mystic Sect, the Eastern Saints had no choice but to agree, an unprecedented humiliation for All Saints.

Zhunti Saint said with a smile, "I recently took a disciple who will make a name for himself, cause a disturbance, then be suppressed by the Buddha of Buddhism, and finally protect the Sutra Taker on his journey to the West to obtain the scriptures, conquer demons, endure trials and ultimately attain True Fruit under the nurturing of Buddhist Law."

Primordial Venerable asked coldly, "How will he cause trouble?"

"Create havoc in the Dragon Palace to fetch the Ocean Stabilizing Divine Iron, in the Underworld to alter the Life and Death Registers, in Heavenly Court to disrupt the Peach Banquet; none from the Heavenly Court and Hell could control him, until, finally, the Buddha of Buddhism intervened to subdue him. Brothers and sisters, how is my storytelling ability?"

Primordial Venerable’s face immediately turned red, veins throbbing on his forehead. Heavenly Court is the facade of the Eastern Mystic Sect. If Heavenly Court was disrupted and ultimately Buddhists had to intervene to restore order, Heavenly Court’s and hence Eastern Mystic Sect’s dignity would be lost. Primordial Venerable, who always valued face, was instantly furious.

Boom~

Boom~

...

Two vast forces of pressure rose, sweeping through the endless Chaos Space, affecting the Primordial Great World, causing all Quasi-Saint Great Powers within Primordial to look towards the Chaos, wondering if a fight had started again.

Inside the Hall of Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, Primordial Venerable and Tongtian Sect Hierarch both stood up, their murderous aura pressing down on Jieyin and Zhunti.

Tongtian Sect Hierarch shouted angrily, "Jieyin and Zhunti, we had a clash in the Chaos before, today you shall be utterly disgraced."

Jieyin Saint helplessly said, "Brothers, calm your anger, this is the mandate of Heavenly Dao."

Zhunti Saint also hurriedly said with a smile, "Brothers and sisters, we are still in the discussion phase, if you are unwilling, the Westward Journey can be canceled, and we could just start the Buddha’s Ascension Calamity to let Buddhism fight Xuanmen."

Primordial Venerable’s aura intensified.

Tongtian Sect Master’s eyes turned cold, and suddenly he laughed heartily, exclaiming, "Good! Zhunti, well done! If you have the ability, then come. The Heavenly Dao resides in Buddha, but the Eastern will not be humiliated. I’d rather fight until the Heavenly Court is destroyed than bow down. Let us show you the supreme elegance of the Eastern Mystic Sect."

Jieyin Saint persuaded, "As such a calamity ensues, countless beings will be enveloped. The Eastern Mystic Sect is destined to lose!"

In the hands of Tongtian Sect Master, the Qingping Sword appeared as he coldly shouted, "Enough nonsense, let’s battle it out amidst the Chaos first."

Primordial Venerable suddenly grabbed Tongtian’s arm and said indifferently, "We have agreed!"

Saint Tongtian suddenly turned his head to look at Primordial Venerable, his eyes filled with anger. How can you endure such humiliation?

Primordial Venerable stated calmly, "Tongtian, it’s crucial to consider the bigger picture! The trend cannot be defied."

Tongtian roared, "Primordial, as disciples of the Xuanmen, our heads can be severed, our blood can flow, but our integrity must never be compromised."

Taishang also said, "Proceed with the Westward Journey."

Tongtian Sect Master’s face immediately stiffened again, even the elder brother agreed.

Nuwa gently brushed her hair behind her ear, speaking softly, "My junior brother, you might as well join the novelists."

Saint Zhunti laughed merrily, "Thank you for your praise, senior sister. I will consider it."

Nuwa said, "I agree as well."

"Thank you, senior sister!" Zhunti exclaimed joyfully.

Ping Xin calmly said, "If he wants to cause trouble in the Underworld, let him! Just don’t disturb me."

Saint Zhunti laughed heartily, "Junior sister jests, how could he ever approach you?"

Jieyin raised his hand, and a dreamlike sphere appeared in his palm, saying, "Let us report to the Heavenly Dao."

Saint Zhunti raised his hand, and the Tao of Karma appeared.

Nuwa’s hand manifested the Creation Dao.

Ping Xin’s hand manifested the Reincarnation Dao.

Taishang Saint brought forth the Taiji Dao.

Primordial Saint revealed the Tao of Force.

Tongtian Sect Master snorted contemptuously, proudly declaring, "Such humiliation will never be tolerated by me. I adhere to the Heavenly Cutting Dao, choosing brokenness over submission."

To his left, Taishang Saint, and to his right, Primordial Venerable, both struck simultaneously, hitting Tongtian Sect Master’s shoulders, guided by the essence of Taiqing and Yuqing.

Tongtian Sect Master cried out in shock as a stream of the Heavenly Cutting Dao burst forth from within him.

The seven Saintly Dao converged in mid-air and then vanished into the void.

Tongtian shouted in fury, "Taishang, Primordial, you..."

"Ahem~" Taishang slowly withdrew his hand, bent over coughing, his frail appearance as if a gust of wind could knock him over, eliciting pity.

Primordial Venerable glanced at Taishang and also coughed a few times, not showing weakness but instead, adding to his dignity.

Tongtian Sect Master glared furiously at Primordial, his teeth clacking angrily.

Primordial looked impassively to the side.

After a moment, a tremendous presence of the Dao emerged in the hall.

Jieyin and Zhunti’s faces beamed with ecstasy, it was a success, the Heavenly Dao has approved.

Zhunti laughed heartily, "Thank you to all the brothers, sisters, junior brother, and junior sister. The Buddha Ascension Calamity has been dissipated into nothingness, a fortune for both East and West!"
