Chapter 202 The Truth
After that, whatever happened in the ancient times no longer appeared in the history of the Golden Spirit Mother.
Because the Three Pure Ones came back and became disciples of Hongjun Daozu, and began to regard themselves as Xuanmen.
As she wished, the Golden Spirit Mother became the disciple of Master Tongtian and became his third disciple.
Daozu Hongjun must have told the Three Pure Ones about the catastrophe. After they came back, the Three Pure Ones used the Three Talents Formation to protect the Kunlun Mountains within a million miles in radius, allowing no one to leave but not enter.
Afterwards, the Three Pure Ones began to take turns preaching in the Yuxu Palace on Kunlun Mountain, once every three thousand years.
All living beings within the coverage of the Three Talents Formation are considered to be predestined people and can come and listen to the lectures at will.
This lecture is about 118,800 years.
During this period, the Golden Spirit Mother sat in the Yuxu Palace and practiced meditation by reciting the Huangting Sutra.
Li Anran had no idea what was happening outside, so he calmed down and listened to the Three Pure Ones' sermons with the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and the others.
Although the Three Pure Ones had not yet become saints, they had all reached the quasi-saint realm, and they had just returned from Zixiao Palace. What they were preaching now were all things that Daoist Ancestor Hongjun had said, and they were also sorting out their own insights.
It can be said that the process of preaching is the process of them realizing their true nature and attaining sainthood.
Although there are no specific magic spells or techniques in it, it points directly to the origin of the great Dao and is related to the foundation of becoming a saint!
The value is immeasurable!
After reviewing so many life stories and upgrading so many skills and spells to the maximum level, Li Anran's foundation is completely different from before.
Although what Sanqing said was very profound, he was able to understand most of it.
It is not like in the past, where you need to listen to the teachings over and over again countless times before you can comprehend and absorb them bit by bit.
After listening to the sermon for the first time, Li Anran entered a state of enlightenment.
The [Available Experience Points] on the system panel skyrocketed at an extremely exaggerated rate.
In just half a quarter of an hour in the real world, Li Anran had accumulated enough experience points to break through from the first level of Taiyi Golden Immortal to the second level of Taiyi Golden Immortal!
However, Li Anran no longer had time to care about these things at this time. He was completely immersed in listening to the sermon, intoxicated.
It was not until the Zixiao Palace was reopened and the Three Pure Ones left that Li Anran woke up from his enlightenment. The experience points he had accumulated were enough for him to break through to the fourth level of Taiyi Golden Immortal in one go!
"It's a pity that it only has such a good effect the first time!"
Li Anran was delighted but also a little regretful. He was looking forward to the Three Pure Ones returning from Zixiao Palace to preach again.
Time passed quickly and that was eighteen hundred years.
During this period of time, the life of the Golden Spirit Mother was simple and pure.
Because when the Three Pure Ones left, they solemnly instructed the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and others to stay in the Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountain to meditate and not to go out.
The Golden Spirit Mother spends most of her time in seclusion practicing, sometimes for hundreds or even thousands of years at a time. Her cultivation level is also steadily improving, from the initial stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal to the middle stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
The Three Pure Ones returned from their second visit to Zixiao Palace to preach the Dharma, and as usual, they took turns preaching in Yuxu Palace on Kunlun Mountain.
It was not until the third and last time that Daoist Ancestor Hongjun preached in Zixiao Palace that he stopped.
"Why can't you give a little more strength to break through to the Golden Immortal!"
Li Anran looked at the Golden Spirit Mother with disappointment and felt a little crazy.
This time, the Three Pure Ones did not go to Zixiao Palace alone as before, but brought along Mother Wudang, Taoist Duobao, and Immortal Nan Ji, who had already broken through to the Golden Immortal level, as attendant disciples, leaving only Mother Wudang and Yun Zhongzi to look after the house.
——When returning from the second visit to Zixiao Palace to listen to sermons, Yuanshi Tianzun brought back his second disciple, Yun Zhongzi, the Immortal of Fortune and Blessings.
Li Anran could only watch Sanqing and others leave, and missed the opportunity to listen to the teachings in Zixiao Palace.
This time, Hongjun Daozu's preaching lasted for another 1800 years.
But after it ended, Daozu Hongjun held the Jade Disc of Creation in his hand, and merged his body with the Tao, shocking the entire prehistoric world once again.
Everyone's eyes were also turned to the six disciples of the Taoist Patriarch, namely Sanqing, Nuwa, Jie Yin and Zhunti.
However, the other six people including Sanqing were extremely low-key. They just focused on preaching in their respective places and never participated in anything in the prehistoric world.
Until one day, purple mist covered the world, flowers fell from the sky, golden lotuses emerged from the ground, countless fairy sounds were heard, and auspicious air rose.
Nuwa achieved enlightenment and became a saint!
Immediately following.
The Three Pure Ones founded a religion, and became a saint by beheading the three corpses!
Jie Yin Zhunti made a great vow and became a saint through the power of vows and merits!
The great world is shaken!
As for the Golden Spirit Holy Mother, she just felt that her master had become more and more unfathomable, and at the same time, there were many more junior brothers and sisters.
After Tongtian Jiaozhu and Yuanshi Tianzun established their religions, they selected some sentient beings who had a predestined relationship with them from among those who had listened to their teachings over the years and accepted them as their disciples.
Such as, Guangchengzi, Manjusri, Samantabhadra, Cihang, Sanxiao, Zhao Gongming, the seven immortals and so on.
Taishang Laozi only chose the first person created by Nuwa as his disciple, that is, the Great Master Xuandu.
…
The Golden Spirit Mother was born too early and had too many life experiences.
Even though the flow of time in the Book of Punishments was countless times faster than in reality, it still took Li Anran most of the day to see that Mother Wu Dang, Mother Jin Ling and others found Zhang Jiao, the reincarnation of Jiang Ziya, through Shen Gongbao, and designed Zhang Jiao to break the List of Gods, allowing the disciples of Jiejiao to regain their freedom.
And then...
"Chaos Bell?! Master Tongtian knows the whereabouts of the Chaos Bell? Jiejiao lost the Immortal Execution Formation and wants to use the Chaos Bell to suppress the destiny?"
Li Anran was shocked when he heard what Mother Wu Dang said to Mother Jin Ling Yunxiao Zhao Gongming during her life.
"No wonder only Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao went to Cuiyun Mountain, but there was no sign of Zhao Gongming from Yunxiao! It turns out that they went to look for the Chaos Bell in the Chaos!"
Li Anran took a deep breath and continued reading.
Then, the three of the Golden Spirit Mother used the compass left by the Patriarch Tongtian to go deep into the chaos. In the end, they actually found the Chaos Bell and put it away!
"How did Master Tongtian know the whereabouts of the Chaos Bell and the formula to activate it? Is it the power of a saint?"
"No! It shouldn't be like this! If that were the case, with Jie Yin Zhunti's temper, he would have snatched the Chaos Bell away long ago! How could he have kept it until now!"
"It should be that Master Tongtian himself secretly used some means! He may even have made a deal with Donghuang Taiyi!"
"The Jie Society accepted so many demons as disciples. Could this be related to this?"
During the Lich Calamity, the Golden Spirit Mother stayed in the Yuxu Palace and never came out. There was no such content in her life, so Li Anran could only guess on his own.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that the previous unusual movement of the stars in the sky was related to the Chaos Clock!
"The Golden Spirit Mother is so anxious to bring the Nine Spirits Primordial Saint back, it turns out it's for the Great Zhoutian Star Fighting Formation! No, I have to tell my second brother about this as soon as possible!"
Li Anran did not hesitate. He made a magic gesture and left an incarnation in the sky prison. He then used the invisibility gesture to avoid everyone's sight and flew towards Guanjiangkou.
Not only because according to the Jade Emperor's decree, if Yang Jian wants to return to the position of the god of justice, he must investigate the reasons for the unusual movements of the stars.
More importantly, this Chaos Bell is one of the three great innate treasures. Even if it is not sacrificed and only activated with spells, its power is enough to affect the situation in the entire Three Realms!
He now has a vested interest in Xuanmen and a deep hatred with Jiejiao. He must let Yang Jian and Taiyi Tianzun know about this and make preparations early!
It’s a pity that when Holy Mother Wu Dang passed the spell to Holy Mother Yunxiao Jinling Zhao Gongming, she used her spiritual consciousness.
If he could hear the content of this spell and then find a way to steal the Chaos Bell, he would be able to reach great heights in one step!
With the Chaos Bell protecting him, no one in the Three Realms can hurt him!
Li Anran's escape technique was extremely fast. In just a split second, he was out of the East Heaven Gate and arrived at Erlang Zhenjun's residence at Guanjiangkou.
Yang Jian was sipping tea and reading in the study, looking leisurely and contented.
This is for the Jade Emperor to see!
He had received the decree from Taibai Jinxing, but did not rush to leave. Instead, he refused on the grounds that "he knew he was not capable enough to uphold the dignity of the Heavenly Laws and Regulations."
This was not only to express his dissatisfaction with being dismissed from the post of God of Justice and the Jade Emperor and his abuse of power for personal gain, but also to seek a promise from the Jade Emperor and pave the way for his subsequent actions against Guanyin!
"Brother Anran, what happened?" When Yang Jian saw Li Anran suddenly appear, he realized that something big had happened. He waved his right hand, and a golden light flashed, isolating the study from the outside world.
Li Anran did not hold back
Yang Jian was told everything about the compass left by Tongtian Patriarch to guide the direction of the Chaos Bell and the spell to activate the Chaos Bell, how Yunxiao and the other two followed Mother Wudang to the Chaos to find the Chaos Bell which caused the movement of the stars in the sky, and how the Jiejiao's ritual failed and asked Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming to go find Lu Ya, Mother Jinling, and Saint Jiuling.
Yang Jian's expression suddenly changed and he was also shocked by the news.
He knew that Li Anran had a rare treasure, and he did not doubt the truth of the news, nor did he ask the source of the news. After pondering for a moment, he said, "This matter must be told to Uncle Taiyi so that he can be prepared."
Li Anran nodded in agreement.
The witch clan at that time gathered the power of the twelve ancestor witches, used their own blood to cooperate with the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, and summoned the true body of Pangu who could create the world, and only then broke the defense of the Chaos Bell.
Nowadays, there are no Twelve Ancestral Witches who can summon Pangu’s true body!
If Jiejiao could successfully refine the Chaos Bell, it would be almost invincible!
This is unacceptable to the Xuanmen Chanjiao!
For Yang Jian, this is even more unacceptable!
The Jie Religion is unscrupulous and lawless in its actions and does not take the laws of heaven into consideration.
When he was in the Investiture of the Gods, he was controlled by others and did not take the Jade Emperor seriously. He dealt with things with an extremely perfunctory attitude!
If they had the Chaos Clock, they would jump to the sky!
Yang Jian almost instantly decided to give up his plan to control the Jade Emperor for the time being.
The most important thing now is to tell Taiyi Tianzun about the Chaos Bell. Whether it is to find a way to stop Jiejiao from finding the method of sacrifice or simply find a way to snatch the Chaos Bell, a decision needs to be made as soon as possible!
"Although Lu Ya became famous for his two strange magic weapons, the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife and the Nail-Headed Seven Arrow Book, during the Conferred God Tribulation, his own strength is not weak. Yun Xiao and Zhao Gongming should not be able to do anything to him in a short period of time."
Yang Jian said, "I will return to Heaven as soon as possible and use the excuse of investigating the unusual movement of the stars to tell Uncle Taiyi about the news of the Chaos Bell. You go back to the Heavenly Prison and wait for my news. If there is any news , I will inform you immediately."
Li Anran nodded in agreement, then performed the Rainbow Transformation Technique and returned to the Heavenly Prison.
After watching Li Anran leave, Yang Jian suppressed his anxiety and continued to drink tea and read in the study.
When Taibai Jinxing arrived again with the Jade Emperor's edict, he agreed immediately without saying a word.
The straightforwardness was so impressive that even Taibai Jinxing was stunned.
Yang Jian snorted coldly and said, "Xingjun, do you really think that I am trying to threaten His Majesty by retreating to advance? I just don't want to be a fool god. Since His Majesty has promised me that the affairs of the Three Realms will be governed by the Heavenly Laws and Regulations, I will naturally go back as soon as possible."
"During the time I was away from Heaven, Li Jing has caused so much trouble. If I don't go back, the three realms will be in chaos!"
Taibai Jinxing smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to respond.
He couldn't afford to offend Yang Jian, nor did he want to offend Li Jing.
"Okay, Xingjun, let's go!"
Yang Jian said this just to dispel Taibai Jinxing's doubts and find a reason for himself to return to heaven. Without further ado, he urged Taibai Jinxing to return to heaven with him.
The two men first went to the Lingxiao Palace to pay homage to the Jade Emperor and temporarily restored Yang Jian's position as the god of justice, thus redeeming himself for his crimes.
Yang Jian then led Roaring Sky Dog to "investigate" the unusual movements of the stars.
Once you have the answer, it will be much easier to work backwards to find the causes and processes, and to find or create evidence!
It only took Yang Jian two days to find some evidence pointing to the Jiejiao and the Chaos Bell, and he immediately went to meet the Dongji Qinghua Emperor.
"Chaos Clock?!"
Emperor Qinghua of the East was greatly surprised. He stood up from the lotus platform with a jerk, completely losing his usual dignity and solemnity. He said anxiously, "Yang Jian, this matter is of great importance! Are you sure that it was the Chaos Bell that caused the unusual movement of the stars? And that it has fallen into the hands of the Jiejiao?"
"I'm not sure. But I'm 70% sure."
Yang Jian followed his usual habit and did not finish his words: "Emperor, don't you think that the actions of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother were a little strange? Since the Conferred God, how many disciples of Jiejiao have converted to the Western Religion? Jiuling Yuansheng is just one of them. Why did she lose her composure like this? Why was she so impatient to take Jiuling Yuansheng back?"
The Great Emperor Qinghua of Dongji remained silent.
He took down the Golden Spirit Mother with the intention of intimidating the Jie Religion, but it was also because of the doubt in his heart.
Yang Jian continued, "Jiu Ling Yuan Sheng is the son of the demon clan's Great Saint Bai Ze. If I'm not mistaken, he should know about the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array. The reason why Jin Ling Sheng Mu is so anxious to bring him back is most likely because of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array."
"Go and call Yuan Sheng'er to me." Emperor Qinghua of Dongji immediately ordered the divine officials on his left and right to summon Jiuling Yuan Sheng.
Soon, Jiuling Yuansheng walked in and bowed his head to greet him.
The Eastern Qinghua Emperor didn't waste any time and went straight to the point: "Yuan Sheng'er, do you know the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array?"
Jiuling Yuansheng was stunned, not daring to hide it, and nodded quickly and said: "I know. I once learned from my father..."
The eyes of the Qinghua Emperor of Dongji fixed.
He no longer cared what Jiuling Yuansheng said next .
Just based on the fact that Jiuling Yuansheng knew about the Zhoutian Star Array, Yang Jian’s speculation was most likely true!
