Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 44 It's a bit hot here

Don't be fooled by Yu Ding's calm and collected expression at this moment.

But he was still a little flustered.

He felt that Ju Liusun was somewhat incompatible with him.

His master had already said he was going to preach, but then Ju Liusun added that he had mentioned the Antarctic Immortal.

Then, the Old Man of the South Pole led to Yuan Hong's havoc in the Heavenly Palace.

At this point, Ju Liusun shifted the topic from the havoc in Heaven to the discussion of Yuan Hong's lineage.

Although this is one of the unsolved mysteries of the primordial era, and many people want to know about it, but...

Conflict!

He must be incompatible with Ju Liusun by fate.

So here's the question: Yu Ding secretly glanced at the enormous figure within the chaotic energy.

Did his master, with his supernatural powers, know about this?

then……

Although the area was shrouded in chaotic energy, Yu Ding seemed to sense a pair of profound eyes looking over from within.

Yu Ding quickly lowered his head, his heart pounding, and sweat poured down his body.

That deep gaze seemed to see through everything...

So, does Master know this?
"Senior Brother Yu Ding, you're sweating so much?" Qingxu Daode Zhenjun asked with concern.

Yu Ding chuckled dryly, "It's a bit hot here, a bit hot..."

"hot?!"

Cihang, Daode Zhenjun, and Daoxing Tianzun, who were standing next to the jade cauldron, looked over with strange expressions.

"Master, what happened next?"

Master Taiyi interrupted the discussion.

Yu Ding was overjoyed.

After looking at it all, Senior Brother Taiyi is definitely the best!
"The Heavenly Court sent people to Yuxu and Biyou Palaces to demand that people come to the Heavenly Court to serve as their subjects."

Yuanshi said, "Biyou was not given to anyone. When we came to Kunlun, I sent your eldest brother to go."

"How could this be?" Everyone was shocked.

Taiyi frowned and said, "Why should my senior brother have to go and submit to Biyou Palace just because no one from Biyou Palace leaves my Yuxu Palace?"

At this moment, Yu Ding, who had kept his presence to a minimum and dared not utter a sound, felt a gaze cast upon him from ahead.

Master really knows... Yu Ding felt a chill in his heart.

He felt like a frightened bird.

"When the Heavenly Court was first established, your grandmaster asked me to take good care of the Jade Void and Azure Wandering lineages."

"Such a thing has happened in Heaven, and Biyou has not sent anyone; my Yuxu lineage cannot do the same."

Yuanshi said, "Besides, when the Heavenly Court came to demand people this time, they didn't specifically name your Antarctic Senior Brother; he was sent to take the blame for someone else..."

"The Heavenly Court can simply send them whoever they want."

Master Huanglong said, "How can we let Senior Brother Antarctica go to the Heavenly Court and bow down to the people!"

These words resonated with everyone, who nodded in agreement: "That's right!"

Yu Ding neither nodded nor spoke, but instead gave Huang Long a deep look. He suddenly had a guess about the Heavenly Court's request for someone.

But this straightforward guy doesn't seem to realize the seriousness of the situation!

"Cough cough!"

At this moment, the White Crane Boy said, "The Heavenly Court intends for the twelve senior uncles to... submit to Heaven."

Everyone: "???"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere became awkward once again.

The Twelve Golden Immortals were initially embarrassed, and then their reactions varied.

Since he was indignant and condemning the Heavenly Court for being too much of a bully, especially targeting honest people;

Some remained silent;
There are also those who quickly switch from awkwardness to a blank expression.

really……

Yu Ding, standing in the crowd, began to sweat profusely again.

He remembered that in the original Investiture of the Gods, it was mentioned that because the Twelve Golden Immortals had failed to sever their Three Corpses for a long time, they were about to face a calamity, so the Jade Emperor ordered them to submit to him.

Yuanshi refused, and thus, this matter became one of the triggers for the later Investiture of the Gods.

But he never expected that this time it would be because of his "filial" disciple who caused such a ruckus in Heaven...

"Alright, let's leave it at that," the white-clad figure in the chaotic energy said.

Everyone then stopped.

"Well then, Master, let's get back to the point."

Taiyi gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Do you know who exactly taught the demonic ape to cause the havoc in the Heavenly Palace?"

Originally, it was fine if the Heavenly Court was disturbed.

Those who weren't involved simply watched the spectacle as a show, and the discussion about the demon ape's lineage was just something to gossip about.

But when it comes to their own affairs, it's no longer a lively affair.

Jade tripod:o((⊙﹏⊙))o
"Yes, Master, who exactly is it?" On this matter, the other eleven people reached a rare consensus, and were very angry and indignant.

Good heavens, this time we almost sent them to Heaven to be bossed around and serve others.

Jade tripod: ∑(°口°)
Please have mercy on me, Master!
“You don’t need to worry about this matter. Now let’s talk about your own situation. You’ve been in the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm for too long, and your tribulation is about to befall you…” Yuanshi said.

Yu Ding: ヾ(￣▽￣) May Master live a long and peaceful life.

"May I ask, Master, what is the tribulation we are facing this time...?"

The Taoist priest in the purple robe at the front of the right row asked a question.

"A calamity of gods and immortals!" Yuanshi said.

"A divine calamity?!"

Upon hearing these words, everyone's faces turned pale with shock.

The so-called ways for immortals to overcome tribulations are nothing more than two: either you kill someone, or you are killed...

If it is a calamity, then it must be extremely dangerous.

Heaven's justice is impartial; no matter who you are, you must be prepared to die before you undergo tribulation.

"Alright, your teacher will now begin the sermon."

Yuanshi said, extending a hand surrounded by holy light and pointing forward. Immediately, twelve futons appeared on the ground.

The twelve Golden Immortals sat on the prayer mats, ready to listen attentively.

Yuanshi Tianzun then began to speak.

As the voice of the Great Dao resonated, everyone gradually became immersed in enlightenment, their faces showing expressions of rapture and intoxication.

But they soon opened their eyes in surprise.

At this moment, Yu Ding also discovered something.

How could he, with only an elementary school education, understand the "high school" lessons taught by Yuanshi's father?!
Or perhaps it could be said that the Primordial Beginning's sermon this time started from scratch...

The others looked puzzled.

Shouldn't they be talking about the Dao Fruit of the Taiyi Realm and then the secrets of severing the Three Corpses?

After listening for a while, they realized that what Yuanshi was saying was something they had heard and learned before, so gradually, some of them began to relax.

They had heard Master's lectures many times and had memorized these things, so it was not too late to listen to the lectures when they reached the crucial point of Taiyi Daoguo.

Yu Ding had never heard Yuanshi Tianzun preach before, and he had to find his own method of cultivation and figure it out on his own.

This time, starting from scratch and listening to Yuanshi's teachings, he was definitely the most attentive and focused student in class. At this moment, he was like a sponge, frantically absorbing what Yuanshi's father was saying.

Then he discovered that, following the Daoist voice of the Primordial Beginning, luminous flowers drifted down from the void, and golden lotuses bloomed on the ground...

"There really was a shower of flowers from the sky and golden lotuses springing from the ground!"

Yu Ding was surprised; this wave effect was incredibly powerful.

Gradually, Yu Ding became engrossed in what the Primordial Celestial Venerable had said.

Manjushri snorted softly upon seeing this.

Even though these are things that everyone has heard many times before, and it's not like it's the first time they've heard them, Yu Ding pretends that he's hearing them for the first time. No wonder he's favored by his master.

Hmph, bootlicker!
I am ashamed to associate with you from now on!
Ju Liusun looked at the jade cauldron with a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

Taiyi nodded slightly. Their foundation, built over countless years, was already solid, like a seven-story building that had already been constructed. Even if someone explained the construction method from the beginning, they couldn't change it.

However, Yu Ding is different. He has just broken through and rebuilt, and his foundation is not yet fixed. There is still room for improvement. What Master said this time may allow Yu Ding to understand something new.

So the reason why Master started explaining from the beginning this time...

Taiyi Zhenren seemed to understand something.

It is unknown how much time passed before the content of the Primordial Celestial Venerable's sermon reached the Taiyi Realm.

This realm cultivates the Three Flowers on the Top of the Head and the Five Qi in the Chest. When cultivating the Five Qi, one is called a Taiyi Scattered Immortal, and when cultivating the Three Flowers, one becomes a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Finally, the Three Flowers Gather at the Top and the Five Qi Converge at the Origin will reach perfection. As long as the Three Corpses are severed, one can advance from the Taiyi Realm to the Daluo Realm.

If Yu Ding were to describe the current situation, it would be like this: the college entrance examination is just around the corner, but these top students haven't fully grasped the knowledge points. So, Teacher Yuanshi has no choice but to cram at the last minute, explaining the knowledge points and must-know questions...

Gradually,
Everyone was also immersed in the Dao that Yuanshi had spoken of.

After a while, everyone opened their eyes, their faces showing joy.

They had no idea how to advance to the Great Luo realm.

But after listening to their master's sermon, they suddenly felt like they were capable again...

"Huh!" At this moment, Taiyi Zhenren's eyes lit up.

Yu Ding was still sitting there with his eyes closed, completely absorbed in his own world.

"division……"

Huang Long looked at the jade cauldron and spoke in surprise.

He had only uttered one word when the figure in the chaotic energy raised his hand.

Eleven disciples disappeared from the main hall.

Everyone: "???"

PS: I saw a reader comment that the part about slaying the three corpses is written incorrectly, emm... I feel it's necessary to explain that in the original Investiture of the Gods, it was indeed the Twelve Golden Immortals who didn't slay the three corpses and trigger the calamity.

Taiyi Zhenren and others have said many times: "Because we have not severed the three corpses for 1,500 years, we have broken the precept against killing..." Since Boluo wrote it this way, he must have consulted the original work. So this is in accordance with the original work. I hope everyone will take Boluo's writing as the standard!
