My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 708 - Scattering Ashes Is A Ritual

Chapter 708: Scattering Ashes Is A Ritual

The sky was covered in a layer of blood-red smoke.

In the narrow area of the Ten Absolute Array Ruins, the ground had melted into a bronze mirror. The Heavenly Dao power that protected the ground had temporarily retreated.

Only the bare trunk of the Bodhi Tree was left. The Wonderful Seven Treasures Tree, which was used as a foundation, was destroyed, leaving only spiritual energy.

On the tree trunk, the G.o.d-Slaying Spear’s body was slightly bent. The tip of the spear pierced through a piece of rotten flesh. Zhun Ti’s corpse was rather terrifying. It made people feel disgusted at a glance.

The disgust that living beings would feel came from deep within their hearts.

Li Changshou frowned and walked forward. The flames on his forehead retreated, and he suddenly fell to the ground.

Zhao Gongming, who was originally standing on the top of the tree trunk, hurriedly jumped off the tree and ran two steps towards Li Changshou. He also staggered and fell to the ground.

Then, the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

The laughter was very happy!

How heroic!

There seemed to be only laughter left in the world.

Most of the people from Chan School were ashen. After all, their opponents…

He had killed a Saint.

On the side of Jie School, there were many female immortals who had tears in their eyes. A few male immortals clenched their fists and waved them around. All of them were filled with pride, but they did not know how to disperse them!

In the sky, Jie Yin’s Dao runes trembled violently. His eyes seemed to have lost focus as he stared at the dead tree on the ground.

However, he looked even more stunned now. He did not look sad.

He was just stunned that a Saint could really die…

The ancient legend of the six Saints being immortal and indestructible was already in the past today.

The foundation of the Heavenly Dao and the six Saints was officially replaced by the Heavenly Dao and the Heavenly Courts!

They were just “mighty figures” with stronger Dharma powers. They had lost the most mysterious and superior veil.

A little light flashed in the sky. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning appeared above the immortals of Chan School and stared at Zhun Ti’s corpse as usual.

The Grandmaster of Heaven appeared above the immortals of Jie School. At that moment, he could not help but raise his head and laugh. He put away the Qingping Sword and Four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords while swaying in the air.

The Grand Pure One frowned and looked at his third junior brother. The Grandmaster of Heaven’s laughter stopped. He immediately stood up and bowed to the Grand Pure One.

“Eldest Senior Brother.”

The Grand Pure One nodded slowly and said slowly, “Be careful.”

“Ah, alright.” The Grandmaster of Heaven agreed with a smile. Then, he put the Qingping Sword at his waist and hugged his arm as he looked at Zhun Ti’s corpse.

The twenty-four heavens had already transformed into twenty-four illusory stars and were waiting for Zhao Gongming to send them to the Heavenly Courts.

Li Changshou and Zhao Gongming laughed in front of the corpse at the Bodhi Tree. Li Changshou was the first to recover. He raised his hand and stuffed two Nine Revolutions Golden Pills into his mouth before pulling Zhao Gongming up.

Li Changshou looked up at the guide in the sky and asked, “Brother, do you still have strength?”

“Yes!”

Zhao Gongming was shocked. He gritted his teeth and looked at Jie Yin. “Get him!”

“This,” Li Changshou sent a voice transmission. “The Little G.o.d-Slaying Spear has been half destroyed. Even if I burn my essence soul, I won’t be able to balance him. We might… not be able to break his defense.”

Zhao Gongming immediately put away his ferocious expression and stared at Jie Yin with hatred. He sent a voice transmission. “What should we do? You said aggressively that you wanted to kill the two Saints just now.”

“It can also be explained that he’s the Second Saint of the Western Sect.”

Li Changshou sent a voice transmission and said softly, “There’s no hurry. Let’s scare him first. Zhun Ti can’t kill him for nothing. The effect of intimidation has to be maximized.”

As he spoke, Li Changshou threw out a green light from his sleeve and turned into a green-furred dog.

Truth Listener.

Previously, he had discovered that the G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit had entered the calamity and was about to rush over. However, he was stopped by a few gray-robed old Daoists and delayed his journey. Truth Listener was pulled into his sleeve and brought here.

It was just nice. He could also give Truth Listener a lecture that was filled with emotions and made him shut up when he should not speak.

Truth Listener felt the Saint Dao runes dissipating around it and was stunned.

He did not feel anything in Li Changshou’s sleeve just now. He only felt a little b.u.mpy. Why did he receive gazes when he was thrown out?

The tree beside… the Connate Spirit Root Bodhi Tree!

On the tree.

Truth Listener’s legs turned weak as it lay on the ground. Its expression was extremely rich.

Although the Sixth Saint had always been criticized as the weakest Saint and cut twice by the Grand Pure One, he could not just kill him, right?

What’s wrong with this world?

From the looks of it, Zhao Gongming and Lord Taibai Jinxing had joined forces to kill him.

What’s going on?

Lord Taibai Jinxing did not catch Maitreya. He turned around and killed Maitreya’s master to vent his dissatisfaction with Maitreya not appearing?

Master, who can stand this!?!

Then, Truth Listener saw Li Changshou and Zhao Gongming, who were covered in blood, changing their clothes and walking to the Saint’s corpse. The two Saints were still muttering…

Zhao Gongming asked, “Can you refine something good from this Saint’s corpse?”

“It’s similar to the corpse of a quasi-saint,” Li Changshou said. “His Dao has returned to the sea of Dao laws. His Dao runes are gone, and his essence soul has been evaporated by the power of the twenty-four heavens. The blood of a saint is good but I feel that his blood is too mottled. It’s not useful for refining pills.”

Then, the two of them looked up at the Daoist priest.

In the sky, Daoist Jie Yin was restrained by the incarnation of the Grand Pure One’s Three Pure Ones. At that moment, he did not struggle. Instead, he closed his eyes.

He seemed to be very confident and did not panic.

At most, he would shake it a few times.

Zhao Gongming pondered for a while. “Saints… don’t have storage Dharma treasures?”

Truth Listener almost went crazy.

Is it inappropriate to focus on that!?!

“There should be.” Li Changshou raised his hand and shot out two immortal powers. The Saint’s corpse instantly split into two. A few ruined treasures slid out. They were all items that could no longer be used.

Li Changshou looked regretful. Zhao Gongming’s eyes lit up. He wrapped the treasures with immortal power and turned around to shout, “The Saint’s treasure fragment is Saint Zhun Ti’s commemorative edition! Do you want to collect it?”

The immortals of Jie School agreed. If they were not blocked outside, they would probably rush forward to s.n.a.t.c.h it.

Zhao Gongming smiled calmly. “The highest bidder wins!”

The immortals of Jie School were instantly more interested.

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

He was probably the G.o.d of Fortune.

The two of them squatted beside the corpse and fiddled with it for a while. Soon, they realized that there was nothing valuable. At most, they had gotten some refining materials.

“How should we deal with this corpse?”

“Of course, I’ll burn it. I’ll keep it to study how the Saints transform.”

Li Changshou smiled and began a series of… ancient operations.

Paper effigies flew out of his sleeve. They rolled on the ground and quickly turned into old Daoists and old women.

The six old Daoists sat cross-legged beside the corpse of the Saint and began to recite the sutra. They read the Dao Sect’ Sutra that was about expiation, sending souls away, and the Rebirth Sutra of the Western Sect.

The scene became lively.

Four middle-aged paper effigies stood on the positions of the four symbols around the Saint’s corpse. They picked up four trumpets of different colors at the same time. They exerted strength in their cheeks and played a cheerful tune.

Some other paper effigies turned into a few old women and women. They cried and burned paper in the brazier.

Li Changshou summoned a ball of flames.

The fire was white and gray in color. As soon as it appeared, it burned the universe until it distorted slightly. A cold feeling arose in the hearts of all living beings.

Li Changshou raised his hand and pushed gently. The flames adhered to the already tattered corpse. The corpse quickly shriveled, but there seemed to be something supporting it. It could not be completely burned after burning for a while.

Zhao Gongming was about to say that he wanted to borrow his master’s Four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords when Li Changshou waved his right hand gently. Five different True Flames bloomed from his fingertips and landed on the remnant body.

After a while, the Saint’s corpse turned into a layer of charred ground and two golden b.a.l.l.s the size of bowls.

Li Changshou groaned softly and summoned the curved G.o.d-Slaying Spear. He smashed it at the ball. The ball that could resist burning was shattered and turned into powder without much effort.

Finally, when the Saint’s corpse was only left with a ball of black and gray dust, Li Changshou took out dozens of Soul-Bewitching Pearls and waved them at the side. Only then did he complete the last step.

He raised his hand and puffed out a wisp of wind from his sleeve. The ashes rose with the wind and slowly scattered under the bald bodhi tree.

Ah, I’m comfortable.

Li Changshou closed his eyes and felt himself sublimating.

He had waited for too long for the ashes this time.

The Primordial World needed the ashes of this Saint to fill the resentment of some living beings!

At the same time, a quarter of the power of the Great Tribulation dissipated.

If he could kill three Saints, he would not even need to undergo the Great G.o.d-Conferment Tribulation. The power of living beings would definitely fall past the “lowest point”.

Unfortunately, he could not kill him.

The Heavenly Courts and the Heavenly Dao had been reinforced by the twenty-four heavens. Later, they would merge the nine heavens into the 33 heavens. The power of the Great Tribulation could also offset a portion.

In that case, there was no need for either sect to be completely destroyed. Half of them would be enough to fill the Great Tribulation.

Where did Zhun Ti’s Primordial Violet Qi go?

Li Changshou did not deliberately look for it. When he was about to kill Zhun Ti, he carefully observed it for a while.

The Primordial Violet Qi had already been melted into a Saint’s Dao Fruit by the Great Merit. Like Zhun Ti, a Saint who relied heavily on merit to become a Saint, the Primordial Violet Qi could no longer be separated. It evaporated and died with Zhun Ti.

“Truth Listener,” Li Changshou said. “Help me sense if there are any living beings fluctuating from the Bodhi Tree.”

Truth Listener hurriedly nodded and immediately shook its head. It did not dare to say anything. It could only pa.s.sively carry out the Lord Taibai Jinxing’s orders in a daze. The entire beast was stunned.

Li Changshou said in a mellow voice, “Go back and tell your master. It’s not that I’m out to go against him. The reason why I killed his Uncle-Master is because his Uncle-Master is too much. Ren School values peace and quiet. If we are not forced to the bottom line, we do not like to fight. As a civil minister of the Heavenly Courts, I do not like to fight and kill. I hope that your master and I can still drink tea and discuss the Dao together and be good friends.”

Truth Listener almost cried.

You have already killed the Western Sect’s Saint. Don’t mess with his master’s relations.h.i.+p with the Western Sect!

Then, b.a.l.l.s of True Fire were thrown to the remains of the Bodhi Tree by Li Changshou. He rode a cloud and brought Zhao Gongming into the sky.

Jie Yin’s face was ashen. He opened his eyes and looked at Li Changshou with a complicated gaze.

The Grandmaster of Heaven suddenly said, “Zhun Ti lost his morals and harmed living beings. Now, he has been executed. He was killed by my Eldest Senior Brother’s disciple, Changgeng, and my disciple, Zhao Gongming. Fellow Daoist, are you dissatisfied?”

Jie Yin looked at the Grandmaster of Heaven and smiled bitterly. He sighed and said, “The Primordial World is endless now. It has finally trapped me. My Junior Brother has killed someone who is not a Saint. My Dharma is inferior to that of humans and my Dao is not holy. I have nothing to say.”

The Grandmaster of Heaven said, “In that case, why don’t you make a promise in front of the three of us and not take revenge?”

Jie Yin was silent. Then, he said,

“If I take revenge for what happened today, I will kill him for Fellow Daoist Three Pure Ones.”

The Grand Pure One looked at Li Changshou and said slowly, “Kill…”

Li Changshou’s heart skipped a beat. He did not expect his teacher to have more killing intent than him.

Although if he killed Jie Yin now, the Heavenly Dao would probably become the biggest winner and severely affect the future of his Great Disc Plan, his teacher had given the order that he could not disobey as a disciple.

It seemed that he had to reveal his last dozen trump cards!

“Really?”

Li Changshou, who was about to move forward, hurriedly braked and bowed.

“Teacher, Second Uncle-Master, Third Uncle-Master, and Senior Jie Yin. Today, I killed Saint Zhun Ti. Zhun Ti killed living beings indiscriminately. I don’t care about the Heavenly Courts, the Heavenly Dao, or the Daoless Sect! The entire Three Realms know about Zhun Ti’s lack of morals. He had relied on his powerful Dharma powers to go back on his words countless times and trample on the Saint’s prestige. Now, he had even made the word Saint laugh in front of living beings. It was a sin that could not be forgiven! Although Saint Jie Yin had given in to Saint Zhun Ti, they were all Saints. It’s not appropriate for them to interfere with each other. I understand Senior Jie Yin’s rationale. As for whether Senior Jie Yin will find an opportunity to seek revenge on me and Brother Gongming because of Junior Brother’s death…”

Li Changshou paused and looked up at Jie Yin. He smiled and said, “After today, Brother Gongming will complete the Heavenly Courts and become an important minister of the Heavenly Courts. He will not partic.i.p.ate in the Great G.o.d-Conferment Tribulation. I’m not afraid.”

“Okay.”

The Grand Pure One smiled. His three incarnations fiddled with it casually and allowed Jie Yin to face him.

With just a glance, he understood the Grand Pure One’s words.

It was a pure threat.

The Grand Pure One closed his eyes and did not say anything. The Grand Pure One put away the mystical ability of the Three Pures and casually pointed at Li Changshou. A jade token condensed in Li Changshou’s palm and a portion of enlightenment surged in his spiritual platform.

Divine Power: Three Pure Ones.

No installation!

That was actually a deterrent to Daoist Jie Yin. It also maximized the effect of Li Changshou and Zhao Gongming killing Saints.

When Saint Taiqing stopped, he sighed softly and turned into clouds to dissipate.

On Chan School’s side, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning said to the Grand Pure One, “Senior Brother, I’m going back too.”

The Grand Pure One nodded and gestured. The Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning swept his sleeve and took away all the disciples of Chan School apart from Yang Jian. His figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Streams of light flashed and surged towards the immortals of Jie School.

Li Changshou frowned slightly and looked at Zhao Gongming. The latter immediately understood something.

Bang ~

The Chaos Bell flew to Zhao Gongming’s side. The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit flew out.

The bell rang again. A gray wave mark slowly spread out, but it stopped the immortals from Jie School a thousand feet away.

Zhao Gongming pulled the pale G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit and transcended the wisps of spiritual energy. The couple looked at each other and knelt down to the Grandmaster of Heaven, who was behind the immortals of the sect.

The Grandmaster of Heaven placed his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky.

Zhao Gongming and the G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit kowtowed three times at the same time. Jin Ling lowered her head and did not say anything. Her face was filled with guilt. Zhao Gongming chuckled and said loudly,

“Master! I have transcended the tribulation with Jin Ling! The child in the womb is fine. You will be able to carry a grandson in a few years! We will go to the G.o.d-Conferment Platform to recuperate!”

As he spoke, Zhao Gongming’s eyes turned red and he knelt down again.

“I, Zhao Gongming, thank you, Master! Master had accepted disciples from ancient times. He had imparted the Dao and given them supreme spiritual treasures. In the end, I could not perform filial piety and could not serve Master in the future. You always say that you don’t appear old and tell us not to call you Master. Master is so domineering. Today, I want to call you Master. Master, I, Zhao Gongming, bow. When I go to the G.o.d-Conferment Platform in the future, I can no longer take care of my junior brothers and junior sisters in the sect. I can no longer share Master’s worries. I…”

The Grandmaster of Heaven chuckled and said calmly, “Alright, go. Look, Jin Ling is not as good as your mother-in-law. She’s a little manly.”

Jin Ling looked up at the Grandmaster of Heaven. The mighty figure of Jie School who had fought half of the twelve Golden Immortals was crying.

“I… don’t know what to say…”

Many immortals of Jie School cried and laughed.

Yun Xiao walked forward and said gently, “Brother, take care.”

“Yes!” Zhao Gongming nodded forcefully and bowed to Yun Xiao. “Remember to listen to Changgeng. Don’t cause trouble for Changgeng. And the two of you… Hey, where’s Fourth Sister?”

Qiong Xiao wiped the corners of her eyes and whispered, “I’m watching the house.”

“Hey! Hahaha!”

Zhao Gongming laughed and said warmly, “We’ll meet again after the Great Tribulation. We’ll meet again after the Great Tribulation. It’s my blessing to have three foster sisters! Of course, it’s my fortune to be able to become Dao companions with you.”

The immortals of the Jie School laughed.

Even the Grand Pure One, who had disappeared at some point in time, squeezed out a smile in the Grand Pure One Temple.

However, the Grand Pure One was still extraordinary. At that moment, he had already cast his gaze towards the Outer World’s Xuandu City.

The first batch of pills had already been produced in the Tus.h.i.+ta Palace.

Something big could happen.

In the ruins of the Ten Absolute Arrays, Yang Jian stood beside the corpse that had been sealed in the ground and sighed softly.

Seeing that a large number of Jie School immortals had rushed over, Yang Jian lowered his head and bowed. He did not do anything and turned to leave.

Hence, an hour later.

My mistake… it is my mistake…

In a corner at the edge of the G.o.d-Conferment Platform, the young girl in a short skirt hugged her knees and curled up in the darkness. She kept sobbing.

I’m the one who harmed Senior Sister Jin Ling. I’m the one who dragged everyone into the calamity.

Why didn’t I die earlier? Why…

“Jin Guang, Junior Sister Jin Guang?”

A familiar voice sounded from the side. The young girl’s body trembled slightly. She looked up at the source of the shout and her pupils constricted.

Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Sister Jin Ling, my brothers…

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’ve harmed you. I should have… I’m sorry…”

Zhao Gongming laughed loudly. “Hahaha, silly girl! Come and pinch me and your senior sister. I’m safe and sound with your senior sister. I survived! Why did you commit suicide in a hurry back then? Isn’t that turning misfortune into luck?”

Qin Wan smiled and said, “Little Sister, come over quickly. Senior Brother Gongming and Junior Brother Changgeng have just killed Saint Zhun Ti!”

The tenth Heavenly Lord said, “What Saint? Daoist Zhun Ti!”

“Then we still earn a lot.”

“Right? It can also be considered as an emotional foundation for getting rid of the Saint.”

“It’s worth it.”

The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit had already walked forward and supported the G.o.ddess of Golden Light that had been repaired by the Heavenly Dao. She gently hugged her and slowly comforted her.

“Senior Sister is fine. Her body came, and the child is fine.”

“Senior Sister!”

Jin Guang could not help but cry in her arms.

Zhao Gongming and Qin Wan looked at each other and smiled. When the G.o.ddess of Golden Light was almost done crying, Zhao Gongming was about to say that he wanted to find a place to drink tea and chat when Bai Jian rushed over.

“Lord Gongming! Lord Gongming!”

Zhao Gongming placed his hands behind his back and said unhappily, “Marshal Bai Jian, don’t call me Lord! Although I’m currently at the tenth place of the Heavenly Dao Sequence, I don’t have an official t.i.tle yet, right? If you shout like that, it will easily make others think that I’m abusing my authority here. Then, the effect will be very bad, right? Ahem, what’s wrong?”

Bai Jian hurriedly said, “The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother sent someone to deliver ten tables of immortal wine and a hundred jars of immortal wine to the hall in front.”

“Let’s go!”

Zhao Gongming waved his hand and said, “Call everyone from Chan School here! If we can’t get close to the Dao Sect outside, we will be good brothers in the future!

I won’t go home until I’m drunk today!”

He would lead the Heavenly Courts astray, starting from the reserve immortals on the G.o.d-Conferment Platform.
