My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 713 - Enemy of the Living Beings!

Chapter 713: Enemy of the Living Beings!

After sending away the mosquitoes and plotting against the golden lotus, Li Changshou’s mood was slightly affected.

He was not too happy. On the contrary, his mood was a little gloomy and heavy. He even felt a little helpless.

“The Great God-Conferment Tribulation. The Buddhist Sect prospers, the Dao Sect weakens, and the Little Tribulation in the Western Sect.”

It was a complete chain of karma.

In short, that was actually a significant matter.

There were the schemes of the Heavenly Dao and the Saints.

However, at the end of the day, it was the Dao Ancestor who had drawn a direction—the Western Sect would definitely prosper. From that, it triggered a competition between Saints. Teacher Taiqing had created a series of battles for the Dao Sect and the Western Sect.

Saints used living beings as pawns, and Dao Ancestors used Saints as pawns.

The Dao Ancestor had always been standing on the highest level. His goal was clear from the beginning.

That was, to reduce the influence of living beings on the world.

If he continued to follow this train of thought, the Dao Ancestor’s plan, or rather, this plan, had been going on for too long. It had penetrated the development path of the entire human race.

That was because there was no conclusive evidence in many parts. There were only some clues, but Li Changshou still made a suitable conspiracy theory.

The Dao Ancestor’s plan regarding the human race should be like this...

Dao Ancestor Hong Jun accepted Goddess Nuwa as his disciple and taught her the Dao of Creation.

After that, Goddess Nuwa created the human race. The human race had a Connate Dao Body and a stronger reproduction ability. They could adapt to various cultivation techniques and even find their own cultivation techniques.

At that moment, the Heavenly Dao predicted that the human race would prosper and become the protagonist of the world. However, that was only a premonition. It was also a part of the Dao Ancestor’s plan.

The Grand Pure One appeared and took in the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du. He established Ren School and taught the human race. As a result, the Heavenly Dao bestowed merit and I became a Saint.

The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning and the Grandmaster of Heaven imitated their Eldest Senior Brother and established Chan School and Jie School with their respective understanding of the Great Dao.

Chan School meant to explain the Heavenly Dao. It was considered a common product of thoughts after the rise of the ancient Heavenly Dao.

The teachings of Jie School intercepted the Heavenly Dao’s chance of survival and opposed the Heavenly Dao controlling all living beings. It was considered a rebellious thought that was common among young people.

The Heavenly Dao bestowed merit. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning and the Grandmaster of Heaven became Saints.

The other two holders of the Primordial Violet Qi wanted to take a share of the loot with Zhun Ti. They were swept out by the Grand Pure One, so Zhun Ti felt a little emotional.

Li Changshou already had sufficient evidence that the original cultivation technique of the human race should have been passed down by the three Saints of the Dao Sect.

The human race welcomed their first great prosperity. They gathered, hunted, and lived like spiritual beasts in the five continents. However, their intelligence was developing rapidly.

Demons valued individuals. The stronger an individual’s potential and comprehension, the higher the upper limit.

As the saying goes, the nine sons of the dragon are all different. The demons also have a “bloodline system”. In essence, they are the same. Those with excellent bloodlines, good aptitude, good comprehension, and good looks are the new stars of the demons.

However, the human race was created by Goddess Nuwa using her mystical abilities. The bloodline of the first generation had nothing to do with Goddess Nuwa. It was just that they had more spiritual energy.

Therefore, the human race began the path of collective cultivation while fighting against nature.

They ascended collectively and comprehended the indestructibility of True Spirits. They were known as Qi Refinement cultivators.

During that period, due to factors like comprehension, cultivation techniques, and aptitude, a large number of Qi Refinement cultivators would be stuck at every bottleneck. The Qi Refinement cultivators would have the structure of a “pyramid”, and there would also be tribes, leaders, and so on.

According to Senior Suiren’s description of the ancient times, the strongest expert of a tribe was the leader. Suiren was one of the strongest leaders of the ancient human race.

After the human race experienced a period of prosperity, the gap between the Great Magi-Demon War passed, and the human race was targeted.

The massacre of the human race was not just to refine the Magi-Slaying Dharma treasure. There were a few deeper factors.

Firstly, the Demon Court did not want to see the rise of a third party other than the Magi.

Secondly, the Dao Ancestor wanted the human race to have enough hatred for the demons so that it would be easier for them to abandon the Demon Court and cleanse the demons.

Thirdly, the Demon Emperor had already seen through the path of the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor. The Demon Court looked powerful, but it was actually on the verge of collapse. It had to forcefully fight against the human race.

Therefore, the Demon Court tried its best to kill the human race.

Then, the human race completely rose. With Senior Suiren as the demon representative, they overturned the Demon Court. In the subsequent Taibai Jinxing Era, Li Changshou destroyed the remnant demons.

The human race became the protagonist of the world and began the process of separation between immortals and mortals.

During that period, the Dao Ancestor secretly made another plan.

He modified the Dao law of reincarnation and used the Six Paths of Reincarnation as a platform to control it. He reduced the fertility rate of immortals and allowed mortals to reproduce quickly.

In the ancient times, everyone could cultivate. The human race could still reproduce in large numbers.

After the ancient times, especially after the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors passed, the Middle Continent where immortals gathered had to rely on the children of the South Continent who were seeking immortals to maintain the legacy of the various sects.

The Immortal Du Sect was a classic example.

At the start of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, the calamity was brewing. The immortal sects of the Middle Continent were in conflict, and large batches of immortal sects collapsed. The middle-class combat power of the human race was greatly reduced, and the Heavenly Courts took advantage of the situation to rise.

The main goal of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation was not to weaken the Dao Sect.

Jie School was known as the court of ten thousand immortals. However, the dense sect “forest” in the Middle Continent was the main body of the living beings in the world.

Of course, the Saint’s Dao field had to be in an otherworldly place to provide a sense of mysteriousness.

However, at that moment, under Li Changshou’s personal control, less than ten of the large sects in the Middle Continent survived. Many “outstanding graduates” from the sects directly accepted the Heavenly Courts’ troops.

That was the Dao Ancestor’s greatest goal.

When that was done, the Heavenly Courts and the Buddhists would be together. The Heavenly Courts would be in charge of supervising the Three Realms. The Buddhists would be in charge of spreading the teachings and teaching the human race to give up the so-called “demonic nature” and focus on being good and enduring.

The main point was to endure.

The most precious thing of the human race was not the legacy of their ancestors, nor was it the empty position of the protagonist of the world. It was not the Torch Flame.

It was the spirit that refused to admit defeat and was not afraid of losing. It kept moving forward and clearing all obstacles.

In the end, Senior Suiren said that it did not matter if the Torch Flame was extinguished. It would ignite again because Senior Suiren was wrapped in that spiritual aura and that thought.

When the heavens had once forced the human race to extinction, the human race had still stood up.

However, if this spirit was extinguished and diluted by the teachings of the Buddhists, no matter how prosperous the mortals and the human population were, they would only be the shell of the True Spirit Rotation, the ideal True Spirit vessel in the eyes of the Dao Ancestor.

At that time, the purpose of the human race’s existence was to give the world meaning to exist. It will not pose any threat to the world.

“Ah...”

Li Changshou stretched and stared at the blue sky above the tree.

That was the main reason why he had to rebel.

To the human race, the Great God-Conferment Tribulation was originally a good thing. The rise of the Heavenly Courts was also a good thing. It was not good for immortals and mortals to separate. It was not bad for mortals to become the main body. Every life has a different meaning.

However, when these good things became the stairs for the Dao Ancestor to fulfill his plan, it

would be difficult to judge.

From this perspective, if one were to judge the God Conferment, they would realize that the Great God-Conferment Tribulation was meaningless. What the human race should have lost was already lost.

The Dao Ancestor’s “monkey show” was really ruthless.

He established the conflict of the world as a conflict between the Saints’ sects and attracted the attention of all living beings. He inadvertently completed the most important step of his plan.

At the same time, the destiny of the human race gathered in the South Continent of the Middle Continent. It was also a game set up by the Dao Ancestor. This caused the human race in the trichiliocosm to be isolated from the rules of the game.

The most terrifying thing was...

The plan of the human race was just a part of the Ancient Dao Ancestor’s plan.

Li Changshou did not know if he was crazy. Facing such an opponent, he was still confident that he could say something.

He was indeed confident, and it was a conservative estimate under normal circumstances.

There was no other reason. The “upright Senior Lang” said that he did not leave him anything good. In fact, he had left him too many legacies that were hidden in the books.

Senior Lang wrote such a sentence in crooked handwriting on the title page of the last book.

“As long as the precious fire of thoughts is not extinguished, it will definitely become a lighthouse that illuminates freedom.”

Li Changshou looked at those words and made a bold deduction.

Senior Lang must have transmigrated from Earth in the era when the Internet was first popularized.

If that was really the case, they would have found the cause of everything.

Boom!

For no reason, the Heavenly Courts suddenly trembled slightly. The Lingxiao Treasure Hall was wrapped in rays of light and slowly rose in the Heavenly Courts to the middle of the 32nd Heaven.

Then, the Jade Pool, the Tushita Palace, and the Grand White Palace were also wrapped in immortal light and rose to the 31st Heaven...

The Hall of Enlightenment belonged to the 28th Heaven. It could reach the Heavenly Courts...

In various parts of the Heavenly Courts, the immortal mountains swayed and the immortal palaces moved. Empty halls slowly condensed and were distributed between the 16th to 28th Heaven according to the number of Heavenly Cycles.

The combat division, the lightning division, the fire division, the water division, and the finance division...

Heavenly King Hall, Hall of Fragrance, Hall of Spirit Official...

After working for half a day, the Heavenly Courts were already prepared. They were waiting for the legitimate gods of the Heavenly Courts to enter at any time.

Li Changshou could sense it and smiled.

It seemed that what he had said in front of the Dragon Mother had worked. The Dao Ancestor began to lose his patience and took action earlier than his original plan.

Was the Dao Ancestor panicking?

Actually, he had already panicked.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many disciples of the Chan School and Jie School to die when Taiyi killed the rock.

Otherwise, he would not have pulled Li Changshou into the dream and threatened him. He even said things like “you were originally my successor”.

There was a rule in the Primordial World. If someone exposed his background, his combat strength would be greatly reduced. He would be flustered.

There was actually a similar rule for his battle with the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao.

He understood the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor, so he targeted the Dao Ancestor’s weakness.

Back then, Suiren had told him that the Dao Ancestor could not be trusted easily.

In fact, Suiren felt that although the Dao Ancestor had broken a portion of his promise back then, he had indeed given the human race a good future.

In Li Changshou’s opinion, the Dao Ancestor was the enemy of living beings. He could not believe anything.

“Let’s continue to rest for a while.”

Li Changshou muttered to himself and continued to relax.

Ever since the small upheavals in the Heavenly Courts began, the opportunity for him to continue increasing his chances of winning would soon arrive.

Hence, half a year later.

...

The South Continent lit up under the starry night. It was the lights of hundreds of families.

Outside Xi Qi City, two layers of military camps were scattered. The four walls were filled with torches, and soldiers were guarding everywhere.

After the Ten Absolute Arrays, the Heavenly Courts suddenly announced in a high-profile manner that they wanted to investigate and punish the immortals who had violated the Heavenly rules and privately interfered with the battle of the Mortal Dynasty. Jie School and Chan School fell silent at the same time.

The Shang army had already defeated Qi Mountain and surrounded Xi Qi City.

However, the immortals of Chan School took out their trump card, the “array formation”. The Zhou army set up a strange array outside the periphery of Xi Qi City and temporarily stopped the Shang army that was coming like a tiger.

In the Zhou Army and Shang Army, the generals of Chan School and Jie School were all trying their best to disguise themselves as mortals, afraid that they would be discovered by the Heavenly Courts.

In fact, the Heavenly Courts were just making a big fuss. They had only announced it and did not do anything.

It was just Li Changshou’s little scheme.

The starlight suddenly flickered. The Black Qilin that the Shang army was already familiar with stepped on black flames. It slowly came from the eastern horizon and landed at the East Gate of the Shang army camp.

Along the way, the soldiers lowered their heads and bowed, their eyes filled with respect.

On the Black Qilin, the white-haired Grand Tutor of the Shang Nation, Wen Zhong, smiled faintly, but it could not hide the fatigue under his face.

“Master!”

In front of the tent, two young generals supported him. Wen Zhong waved his hand and jumped down from the Black Qilin. The Black Qilin slowly rose into the sky and went to rest outside the camp.

“Master, how is it?”

“Let’s go in and talk,” Wen Zhong said and walked into the tent.

The two young generals were Wen Zhong’s disciples. They were considered the fourth generation of Jie School.

Before the Ten Absolute Arrays, Wen Zhong did not know what was wrong with him. He felt an inexplicable sense of age in his heart. He felt that he had been fighting for many years and suddenly felt tired.

Take in a disciple.

Wen Zhong thought that way and accepted the two disciples.

In the blink of an eye, they could be considered independent.

Wen Zhong slowly heaved a sigh of relief and set up a barrier.

The two disciples brought tea and took away the armor that their master had taken off. They both wanted to say something but hesitated. They were concerned about the outcome of the trip.

“Master, can’t you convince Grandmaster Lu Yue?”

“Uncle-Master Lu Yue is unwilling to attack mortals,” said Wen Zhong. “What he said makes sense. If he uses his poisonous pills on mortals, it will not be considered a skill. Uncle-Master Lu Yue also said that if it were a thousand years ago, he might have agreed to this matter. However, now, he is already the Deputy Alliance Leader of the Immortal Alliance. He has to pay attention to his identity. If he directly attacks mortals, even if he uses some laxatives, he will only embarrass Jie School and smear the reputation of the Immortal Alliance and the Heavenly Courts. He can’t be considered Taibai’s brother.”

The two young generals looked at each other and sighed softly.

“Then, Master, are we really going to fight with Chan School?”

“Master, the army has surrounded Xi Qi City. If we don’t fight this battle and retreat now, the morale of the army will be low. If Ji Chang and Ji Fa of the Zhou Nation use the opportunity to raise their voices, Chaoge will be in danger.”

“Alright, alright.” Wen Zhong smiled bitterly and waved his hand. “How can I not know about this? Go down first and let me think about it.”

“Yes.”

“Okay!”

The two disciples lowered their heads and cupped their fists before retreating.

Wen Zhong sighed softly and stared at the map of the surrounding terrain of the Qishan hanging by the side. He collapsed on the chair, his eyes filled with fatigue.

He had not only invited Lu Yue.

However, for some reason, the elders and peers in the sect who were originally quite kind to him were avoiding him.

The few good friends who had agreed to go down the mountain to help, and even his senior brother, Yu Hua, had said that he wanted to enter seclusion to cultivate...

Wen Zhong could not understand, nor could he figure it out. However, he vaguely knew that it was related to the two experts in the Ten Absolute Arrays killing the Saints.

What kind of situation could he see through?

He was just the Grand Tutor of the Shang Nation and a third-generation disciple of Jie School. He was just an insignificant person in the world.

However...

“Your Majesty,” Wen Zhong muttered to himself. “That’s all I can do.”

Wen Zhong slowly took a deep breath and sat up straight. His eyes flickered as he walked to the hanging simple topographic map.

The original plan remained unchanged. Three days later, the Shang army would advance fully. They had to break through Xi Qi City!

Xi Qi City was the core of the Zhou Nation’s people. The talents and nobles of the Zhou Nation were all gathered there.

As long as he could break through this place, even if the Zhou Nation would not be destroyed, it would decline for ten to twenty years!

That was the last hope of the Shang Nation and the period that His Majesty desperately needs!

His Majesty was a mortal with a limited lifespan. After His Majesty dies, it would be difficult for the successor to have such boldness.

The life and death of the Shang Nation depends on this battle!

Grandmaster’s Saint Dao is to obtain a chance of survival for all living beings in the world!

My Dao is only to obtain a chance of survival for the Shang Dynasty.

No, the longer I drag this on, the more worried I will be. Things would change if he delayed.

“Gather the generals of the three armies!”

Wen Zhong shouted outside the tent, “Everyone, kill the deer and sheep tomorrow to strengthen the troops!”

“Yes!”

Responding in unison from outside the tent, the orderly soldiers rushed over and shouted to each camp.

Crying suddenly sounded in Xi Qi City, as if a certain important figure had died.

In the Shang Army camp, they began to mobilize frequently at night. The soldiers were urged to sleep early. Before dawn, there was already a rich meat fragrance.

In the morning, the drums trembled. There were many winding dragons on the ground. The flags of the various troops of the Shang Army danced in the wind. The world was filled with killing intent.

The people of the Zhou Army... held their breaths in the array formation and waited.

In the Shang Army’s tent, Wen Zhong slowly put on his armor and pointed out a water mirror to look at the old face inside.

Face comes from the heart, and appearance comes from the heart.

In today’s battle, the higher-ups wanted to destroy Xi Qi and the subordinates wanted to overthrow the Zhou Army. If the battle began, the living beings would be plunged into misery and suffering. However, they were all loyal and fearless.

“Teacher, I will definitely let the business foundation prosper in my hands again!”

Your Majesty, you are actually fighting against the heavens.

It was actually the Heavenly Dao that wanted the Zhou Dynasty to prosper. Your Majesty...

“Has the Grand Tutor thought about it?”

A soft voice sounded behind him. Wen Zhong was stunned. He saw the young Daoist who appeared behind him silently through the water mirror.

The person did not conceal his appearance, but Wen Zhong was not used to it. He was stunned for a moment before recognizing who it was. He hurriedly turned around and bowed.

“Wen Zhong greets Lord Taibai Jinxing!”
