Chapter 339 The Strongest Assistant of the Primordial World!

Li Changshou stood on the ruins of the Crystal Palace and looked at the deep sea pit in front of him. He could not help but feel puzzled... Why are you running?

What are all of you running for?

Originally, with Ox-head and Horse-face as the “guest actors”, Li Changshou felt that he could be more reliable this time and not take action. He had a high chance of stalling, breaking through, and escaping However, halfway through the first plan, the Great Daoist Master suddenly gave the order. As his junior brother, he could only passively operate and change his train of thought. He revealed the traditional skills of the disciple of Ren School, the Heavenly Courts’ Civil Official, Little Daoist Master Xuan Du. At that moment, the problem seemed to have become dealing with thousands of experts at once. In fact, the problem is... I have a 98% chance of escaping at any time. When facing thousands of experts who lack great mystical abilities, how can I inadvertently let them know that they can’t break my defense? The reason that Li Changshou could so decisively “change the script” at the last minute was mainly that he had already prepared this backup plan. Before he attacked, he was confident. Secondly, there were no disciples of the Saint.

There were also strong and weak Primordial Beasts. Wen Jing and Jin Chanzi were already considered ruthless figures. The batch of ferocious beasts in the West Ocean Dragon Palace was clearly weaker.

Moreover, the dragons there had been controlled by the Western Sect using a curse. Although the old dragons were very powerful and had been nurtured by the West Ocean Dragon Palace over a long period of time, they were not as powerful as the West Ocean Dragon King, who was a true ancient expert. There were also no ancient battle dragons guarding the Sea Eye.

Otherwise, Li Changshou would not have dared to act rashly!

Look at how he did it... First, he used the paper effigy that was in the form of a gourd spirit child to retaliate. Then, he suffered the attacks of dozens of dragon race elders and created a mental pressure on the other party, creating the image of a “mighty figure”.

During the entire process, he targeted the person in charge of the other party, the Crown Prince, Ao Shi. He threatened him with words, protected himself with a treasure, and used an escape technique to successfully capture Ao Shi... The most difficult part of this plan was not to reach Ao Shi’s side with an escape technique, but how to successfully escape from the siege of dozens of dragon experts. Li Changshou’s method was actually very simple. He would just not go in.

The moment he turned into a stream of water and exploded, his true body had already used the escape technique to hide to the side and used the power of the Taiji Painting to conceal himself.

He used dozens of streams of water to attract the other party’s attention. Then, he secretly used the Cosmic Escape technique and sent a Golden Immortal paper effigy behind Ao Shi.

Li Changshou’s attainment in the Cosmic Escape technique was far inferior to the other escape techniques that he had immersed himself in for many years. When his main body used them, there would be a lot of obstacles and traces.

However, Li Changshou was already familiar with using the Cosmic Escape technique to send the paper effigy to the designated location. When the paper effigy used the Da Yu Hydrology Diagram to cause trouble and trap Ao Shi, Li Changshou immediately used the telekinesis technique to send the treasure map back to his main body. Then, his main body appeared and attracted the other party’s attention. He used that to cover the Earth Emanations Spirit Explosion Array on the paper effigy in the Golden Immortal realm and activate it...

The entire plan was executed smoothly and seamlessly. There were no major mistakes.

From the beginning to the end, Li Changshou only needed to grasp the rhythm to create a feeling of being able to come and go as he pleased. It was dazzling and overwhelming, and it would increase his psychological trauma. “The so-called ‘danger’ during this period is just the illusion of the enemy and the bystanders.” However, what puzzled Li Changshou was that after the spiritual explosion, the enemies... retreated just like that.

The other party retreated very quickly. Before the lingering effects of the spiritual explosion dissipated, the traitors had already turned around and quickly retreated from the Crystal Palace. When they left, many ferocious beasts and traitors cursed and shouted at the officials of the Heavenly Courts. They even said that the generals of the Heavenly Courts were just a pretense and that the real ruthless people were living in retirement among the officials.

He was clearly slandering the amiable image of the Heavenly Courts’ immortals! However, Li Changshou felt a little regretful that the other party retreated quickly. After all, he was prepared to sacrifice three Golden Immortal paper effigies today. There was a limit to the number of Golden Immortal paper effigies that could exist at the same time. However, he could create more after destroying them.

Why did the other party retreat? Aren’t these traitors controlled by the Western Sect? Aren’t they supposed to be fearless of death? The spiritual explosion just now did not cause much damage. It only tore apart more than half of the old dragons in the core of the Cosmic Seal. Half of them were still intact.

However, because of the dense formation of the dragons and the Cosmic Seal, the power of the spiritual explosion was reduced. Only 30% of the thousands of experts were injured, and 70% were fine...

There were many casualties among the rebels outside, but most of them were Perfected Immortal realm Immortal Flood Dragon troops. They fully portrayed the term ‘cannon fodder’ and the accurate definition of the Primordial World.

When the other party retreated, not only did the thousands of experts retreat, but the hundreds of thousands of troops outside also quickly retreated to the Aparagodānīya Continent. They did not care about their formation and fled in a sorry state.

Li Changshou did not have time to chase after him. He could only rely on the Water God Deity Position that had yet to be fully formed to calm the roars of the West Ocean and reduce the casualties of the living beings in the sea. He could not increase his negative karma too much...

Then, he sorted out the subsequent operations of the plan and felt a little regretful.

He could not use it again.

No matter how he thought about it, he could not predict the heart of a living being. This time, he had miscalculated the enemy’s psychological endurance...

At that moment, half of the Crystal Palace in the fan-shaped area behind Li Changshou was safe and sound.

Clearly, during the spiritual explosion, the Pagoda Master had helped to protect the remaining fire seeds of the West Ocean Dragon Palace.

Ao Shi, who had returned to his human form, was lying behind Li Changshou. His body was covered in wounds, and he was barely breathing. He was seriously injured. With a steady hand, Li Changshou released a wisp of immortal power and added a few... ten layers of seals to Ao Shi’s dragon soul.

It was to prevent him from self-destructing.

Li Changshou then scanned his surroundings and activated a portion of the paper effigies to receive the experts of the dragon race who had rushed over from three directions. He wanted them to avoid encountering the main force of the rebel army and increase their casualties. The light membrane of the Five-Element Array slowly retracted. The gourd spirit children put the small gourd back on their heads and turned into paper effigies. They flew towards the calabash vine and entered the cracked gourds. Li Changshou opened his left hand and the calabash vine returned to his sleeve.

He looked at the deep pit in front of him and sighed softly. He turned around and took two steps towards the West Ocean Dragon King. The hundred-odd Immortal Flood Dragon troops subconsciously took half a step back. The experts of the dragon race surrounding the throne had complicated expressions.

Two Battle Magi in headgear were squatting behind the throne. They had their hands in their sleeves and were mumbling softly. “Is this what the Water God meant by stalling time? Neigh...” “Isn’t that so?”

Ox-head chuckled. “Kill all the enemies and buy time for our reinforcements to rush over. This can be considered a delay. Moo...”

“Should we still capture their souls?” “How? Their souls are long gone. The Water God is here. Let’s go!” As he muttered, the two Magi jumped behind Li Changshou. They hugged their arms and dragged a pile of chains to the West Ocean Dragon King. With the help of the dignified and beautiful Dragon Queen beside him, the West Ocean Dragon King stood up shakily and bowed.

“Thank you for saving my life, Water God.”

“There’s no need to be so polite, Dragon King.” Li Changshou hurriedly replied and took out two more bottles of pills. “Dragon King, did you get poisoned?” “That’s right.” The West Ocean Dragon King felt ashamed when he heard that. “Water God, you have clearly warned me previously, but I was still careless and fell into his trap. I never expected that the Western Sect had completely emptied the Dragon Palace.”

Li Changshou shook his left hand gently and placed the outline of Ao Shi in front of the Dragon King’s mother.

The Dragon King’s eyes widened. He struck with his hand, wanting to kill Ao Shi. The generals and elders of the Dragon Palace at the side shouted softly, “Your Majesty...” The Dragon Queen extended her hand and wanted to stop him. However, she raised her hand and only said the word ‘Your’ before stopping. Ao Shi could no longer live. However, Li Changshou stood up and sighed softly. “Dragon King, we can’t kill him now.” The West Ocean Dragon King’s eyes were red as he whispered, “Why bother pleading for my unfilial son, Water God!?!”

“I’m not asking for mercy on his behalf,” Li Changshou said. “Ao Yi committed a crime and wanted to kill his father. He has committed a heinous crime and should be executed. However, Dragon King, you and Ao Shi are both in the Heavenly Courts’ Deity Positions. Would it be safer to bring Ao Shi to the Heavenly Courts and let the Jade Emperor deal with him? When His Majesty gives the order to execute Ao Shi, he would naturally be pushed onto the Dragon Slaying Platform of the Heavenly Courts. The Heavenly Dao guillotine would fall, and a dragon’s head would fall to the ground. The Heavenly Dao would naturally resolve the curse of the mental demon for him. If Ao Shi sincerely repents at that time, perhaps His Majesty will be moved and give him a chance to reincarnate.”

Li Changshou paused. The West Ocean Dragon King, Dragon Queen, and the surrounding elders looked at Li Changshou gratefully. Even if Ao Shi’s mind was controlled, he had to kill Ao Shi. Otherwise, the Dragon King’s prestige would be completely gone. Li Changshou took the initiative to stop them. Firstly, he wanted to avoid the tragedy of his father killing his son. Secondly, he wanted to take into account the dignity of the Heavenly Courts. Thirdly, he could take the opportunity to let the Heavenly Courts and the Netherworld have their first “official contact”. It was just a few words, but there were many considerations behind it. It could be considered a little wisdom of Li Changshou.

Li Changshou asked again, “Dragon King, why did Ao Shi and the others not attack us previously?”

“They were interrogating the ones at the West Ocean’s treasure vault.” A dragon elder sighed softly.

Li Changshou nodded slowly. It was not appropriate to ask too many questions.

He did not want them to take it as a hint from him.

Suddenly, he heard dragon roars. Dozens of azure dragons from the south and north rushed into the seawater and rushed over. At that moment, thunder rumbled above the Dragon Palace. A golden beam shone down and rows of Heavenly Generals flew out... It was the team that Li Changshou had previously arranged to “rescue” and “cover”. They arrived on time.

The scene became awkward...

Not long after, more than a hundred experts from the South Ocean, the North Ocean Dragon Palaces, and the 100,000 Water Army of the Heavenly River surrounded the ruins of the Crystal Palace. They looked at the empty “battle situation” and fell into crazy self-doubt.

Do we still need them?

An hour later, the West Ocean Dragon King led the remaining troops and the experts from the Dragon Palaces of the three oceans to temporarily guard the West Ocean Eye. Li Changshou also ordered the Heavenly River naval troops to return to the Heavenly Courts and rush to the North Heavenly Gate to prepare for the second “landing” Then, Li Changshou looked at the two jars in front of him that contained the Dragon King’s blood, with a smile.

Good stuff...

It was the Dragon King’s blood that had gathered a large amount of poison in the Dragon King’s body when he was treating the West Ocean Dragon King’s injuries!

Poisonous pills! Golden Immortal Poison!

According to Li Changshou’s initial judgment, that poison should have come from a Primordial Beast. It was a Connate Poison, and its toxicity was so strong that even a veteran Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal like the Dragon King could not withstand it. Although he had exposed the trump card of the “gourd spirit child”, his trump card inventory would soon expand! Li Changshou carefully took out three treasure pouches and covered the jars in three layers of pouches. He then put away the two jars of Dragon King’s blood. The conditions here were rather simple. He could not easily touch such a lethal poison. He had to wait for the dragon race’s battle to end before using the paper effigy to find a desolate mountain to deal with it. “Why are you doing this?” The Pagoda Master asked lazily in his heart and lectured earnestly, “Explode! Explode! That’s all! What’s so good about poison!?! It’s not elegant! You are a man who has mastered the mystic technique of Spirit Explosion! How can Fairy Yun Xiao not fall in love with you after a few more explosions?” Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He was already used to the Pagoda Master’s frivolous words.

“Lord Water God,” Ox-head asked weakly. “Where are we going? Both of us have memorized your lines! Moo ~”

Horse-face hurriedly added, “We the Netherworld servants will always be your companions, Lord Water God. Neigh!” Li Changshou nodded with a smile. “Thank you for your help just now. Otherwise, the situation would have gotten out of hand.” “Lord, don’t say that.” Ox-head muttered. “If it weren’t for me and Horse-face insisting on following you here, those Dragon Palace rebels would probably not be able to escape!”

“That’s not true...”

Li Changshou was about to explain the changes in the situation just now when the familiar Taiji Painting appeared in the seawater beside him. Li Changshou and Ox-head and Horse-face immediately swam over and disappeared. After they left, a few figures flew out from all directions and began to get busy in the deep pit at the bottom of the sea. They killed the corpses there one by one and used the Soul-Bewitching Pearls to collect their remnant souls.

Then, he gathered the corpses and ignited the True Samadhi Flames.

He chanted the Expiating Sutra, the Disaster-Repelling Blessing Incantation, and the Grand Pure One’s Soul-Calming Incantation. A paper effigy opened a bubble in the seawater and gathered the ashes. He then blew the trumpet in the bubble and the vibes of a ritual instantly filled up... In the Sea God Temple, the Great Daoist Master, Fairy Yun Xiao, Li Changshou, Ox-head and Horse-face appeared one after another. It was as if they had never gone out before. Li Changshou closed his eyes and focused. Through the paper effigy, he monitored the movements and situations in the four oceans. To the Western Sect, they did not suffer a huge loss although they could not find any dragon treasures in the West Ocean, because they had retreated decisively. They would probably not give up today. At that moment, the South Ocean and East Ocean had already fallen into chaos. The Sea Clan’s rebel army had launched a fierce attack, and the battle line of the dragon race was momentarily tense... The Great Daoist Master saw Li Changshou frown and asked, “Changgeng, how is it?” “It’s chaotic everywhere,” Li Changshou said. “Brother, the paper effigy I arranged has already discovered the West Ocean Dragon Clan’s rebel army. They are heading north and south at the edge of the Aparagodānīya Continent. It seems that they were going to attack the North Ocean and South Ocean. The Western Sect has a clear goal this time. What they want is the accumulation of the Dragon Palace over countless years as the foundation for the Western Sect’s prosperity.” The Great Daoist Master frowned and said, “The Western Sect is going to prosper. Where is our Dao Sect? This! Junior Sister Yun Xiao, you protect Changgeng and go to the South Ocean. I’ll go to the North Ocean to hold the fort. I must destroy the Western Sect’s scheme! The Dao Sect’s destiny is flourishing!”

After saying that, a Taiji Painting appeared behind the Great Daoist Master and he turned around to enter.

Fairy Yun Xiao, who was standing quietly at the side, could not help but blink. She seemed to have been arranged. Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Senior Brother, about that!”

The Taiji Painting disappeared with a flash. Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was gone. Yun Xiao could not help but chuckle and say gently, “What Senior Brother Xuan Du said makes sense. Fighting against the Western Sect is not just a matter of Ren School.” Li Changshou smiled helplessly and said, “I’ve embarrassed myself in the battle just now.” “Fellow Daoist, take action. If you don’t move, it will be fine. If you move, it will be like a mountain collapsing.” Yun Xiao smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, you were born late. If you had started cultivating in the ancient times, you would have long become a mighty figure.” Li Changshou shook his head and smiled. “It’s good that you don’t think I’m unscrupulous.” Yun Xiao tilted her head slightly and pondered for a while. She asked softly, “Fellow Daoist, do you think that I only know how to cultivate and not how dangerous the Primordial World is?” Li Changshou smiled warmly and shook his head slowly. The two of them looked at each other and felt that they understood each other more.

In the corner...

Ox-head whispered, “Horse, we’re quite awkward here. Moo.”

Before Horse-face could even neigh, a Taiji Painting appeared behind the two of them. Two huge hands reached out of thin air and pulled the two brothers into it.

The Great Daoist Master’s voice sounded from the Taiji Painting “Changgeng! Catch!”

A black ray of light flew over and landed in front of Li Changshou. Li Changshou held it with both hands. It was the Cosmic Ruler refined by the Grand Pure One!

The shape of the ruler was like a blunt sword. It had once struck the East Emperor Bell and the Kun Peng’s soul. It was a rare offensive numinous treasure of Ren School!

Of course, it was just like the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. It was only borrowed and not bestowed.

It would be too polite to say that he was borrowing it. It should be considered a unique project of Ren School – a shared numinous treasure! The Cosmic Ruler trembled slightly. A wisp of spirituality sounded in Li Changshou’s heart. It had a crosstalk with the Mystic Yellow Pagoda. “Let’s go to the South Ocean Dragon Palace. Don’t delay the important matters,” said Fairy Yun Xiao. “I implicated you in such karma...” Li Changshou said apologetically. “Don’t be afraid.” Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with starlight. She placed her hands behind her back and said, “You have to spend more effort to make arrangements. Don’t let me have the chance to attack.”
