Jin'ao Island, Biyou Palace.

When Chu Yang arrived here, Master Tongtian was discussing Taoism with Taoist Duobao.

"Disciple Chu Yang, hello to Master!"

Chu Yang bowed respectfully, then raised his head and looked at Master Tongtian and Taoist Duobao on the high platform.

Master Tongtian was dressed in a blue robe, with a face as white as jade. His eyes seemed calm, but they carried a frightening majesty that made people's heart flutter.

He glanced at Chu Yang calmly, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "You, you finally came out of seclusion."

Taoist Duobao smiled and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Junior Brother Xiaolei, I have heard that you have been in seclusion in Yingzhou for 40,000 years, which has made us in Jiejiao wait anxiously. Tell me, are you coming out of seclusion this time to bring honor to our Jiejiao?"

"I have been in seclusion for a long time and have been slack. Today I come to ask Master and Senior Brother for advice."

Chu Yang answered neither humbly nor arrogantly, but there was a hint of sharpness in his tone.

Today, Duobao has also killed Shanshi and possesses the strength of a quasi-saint.

Taoist Duobao raised his eyebrows and was about to make a few more jokes when he was interrupted by Master Tongtian.

I saw Tongtian Patriarch slowly stand up and look down at Chu Yang, his eyes deep as if he saw through all his changes: "Hmm, your aura is strong and your laws are perfect. It seems that your tens of thousands of years of cultivation this time is not just as simple as consolidating your cultivation."

Chu Yang felt a heavy pressure from Tong Tian Sect Master's gaze. Even though he had now entered the realm of Quasi-Saint, that gaze still loomed over him like a towering mountain.

"Master, please understand. By chance, I have gained some understanding of the principles of time and space. I have now come out of seclusion to see you."

Soon after, the Great Tribulation of the Conferred Gods would begin. The Great Tribulation of the Conferred Gods was an important turning point in the prehistoric world and also the greatest crisis for his Jiejiao.

He must improve his strength as quickly as possible in order to protect himself and even the Jie Religion in the coming catastrophe.

"The laws of time and space?" Tong Tian raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled, "Good! Good! Good! You are worthy of being my disciple of Jiejiao. You can actually comprehend such profound laws! It seems that you have gained a lot from your years of retreat!"

Taoist Duobao was also shocked when he heard this. There was a bit more inquiry and joy in his eyes when he looked at Chu Yang.

"Xiao Lei, can you kill the good corpse now?"

Master Tongtian saw that Chu Yang's cultivation was at the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm, so he asked.

Duobao on the side also cast a curious look over, and he had also killed Shan's corpse.

Among the current Jiejiao, he is the only one who has achieved the status of a quasi-saint. The three sisters, including Zhao Gongming and others, are all at the level of Daluo Jinxian.

Chu Yang bowed his head respectfully and replied in a deep voice: "Master, I haven't cut off the corpse yet."

As soon as these words came out, the entire Biyou Palace became silent, and the air seemed to stagnate for a moment. Duobao Taoist was slightly stunned, and was about to make a joke, but he found that Tongtian Sect Master slowly lifted his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and seemed to be in a brief contemplation.

“Has the corpse not been beheaded yet?” Tong Tian Jiaozhu’s face, which looked like ancient jade, showed a hint of interest. His deep gaze fell on Chu Yang, as if he was looking directly into his soul through his skin.

"That's interesting. With your current level of cultivation, you haven't killed any corpses yet. I guess the path you take is different from that of ordinary people."

"Exactly."

Chu Yang raised his head: "Although my disciple is on par with a quasi-saint, he has not yet found the three corpse points that suit him. If he rashly kills the corpses, I am afraid that it will cause great hidden dangers and lose his foundation."

To behead a corpse, one needs a suitable spiritual treasure to support the body. Chu Yang has only had one or two top-grade innate spiritual treasures in his hands over the years, and none of them are suitable for beheading corpses.

It is not impossible to force it to act as a corpse-slaying magic treasure, but it will limit it greatly in the future.

Taoist Duobao also said: "Junior Brother Xiaolei, you have reached the peak of Daluo and have mastered the laws of time and space. Now is the time for the water to be full..."

Chu Yang smiled slightly, but did not respond. He turned to look at Master Tong Tian and said, "Please teach me, Master. I still have some questions in my mind, and I am still confused about the method of beheading the three corpses."

Tongtian Patriarch waved his hand gently and said, "The matter of beheading the three corpses is no child's play. Good, evil, and obsession are not ordinary visible thoughts, but the original obsession hidden deep in the soul. Once cut off, it is necessary to use the supreme magic as a guide and obtain the recognition of the heavenly way, otherwise the thoughts will not flow and will be bound by them."

He paused, raised his hand and gently drew a line in the air. Instantly, the spiritual energy in the Biyou Palace surged, presenting a magnificent Dharma image.

In the picture, a figure is sitting cross-legged in the center, with three rays of light blooming from his head. Some have kind eyes, some are ferocious like a ghost, and some have crazy eyes, each emitting a completely opposite aura.

"Good corpses, evil corpses, and corpses are all three paths. Only by refining them with one's own strong will can one achieve the true spirit of the three corpses."

There was an unfathomable emotion in Master Tongtian's voice, "I hope you can understand that the difficulty of beheading a corpse is not in beheading it, but in not getting lost."

As soon as Master Tongtian finished speaking, the Dharma image disappeared, and peace returned to the Biyou Palace.

Chu Yang stood quietly in the center of the Biyou Palace, with Master Tongtian's previous explanation surging in his mind.

The magnificent image of the Dharma and the explanation of the obsession with the origin were like the morning light that cleared away the fog, illuminating his blurry path a little clearer.

"Beheading the Three Corpses, it turns out... it's so mysterious."

Chu Yang murmured in a low voice, with a bit of awe for the Great Dao in his words.

Master Tongtian seemed to see through his thoughts and smiled faintly: "Although this path is mysterious, since you can reach this level today, you are qualified to explore higher and more wonderful methods. Xiao Lei, remember, you must find your own way. What I teach you is only a guide, not an answer."

After a moment, Chu Yang bowed his head and saluted, then said calmly and sincerely, "Thank you, Master, for clearing up my doubts. My mind was previously filled with fog, but now I have a glimpse of the true meaning. What Master said will be engraved in my heart."

"Haha! It's rare for a kid like you to be modest!" Taoist Duobao laughed loudly, his tone showing surprise and admiration. "Junior Brother Xiaolei, in the thousands of years of our Jiejiao, who has ever seen a master willing to explain so much to a disciple? I envy you for this!"

Chu Yang was not complacent about this. He took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling slightly, as if trying to suppress the agitated emotions in his heart. Then he looked up at Master Tong Tian, ​​his eyes as clear as a mirror, reflecting a firm light: "Brother, you are too kind. Master has shown great love to me. I will never forget it, and I will never slack off. I will do my best to repay you."

Although the voice was not loud, it penetrated the tranquility of the hall, as if every word was filled with a determination as unshakable as rock.

Chu Yang lowered his brows and pondered for a moment, as if he was repeatedly pondering and chewing the teachings in his mind. Then he raised his head, with a hint of confusion and expectation in his eyes, and asked his master again: "Master, may I ask for further guidance? Among the laws of space and time that are intertwined and changing, is there a magic method that can integrate the two and make them work smoothly?"

In the Devouring World, the Law of Space has not been able to be smoothly integrated like the Laws of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth. This is also the problem that Devouring Chu Yang has been exploring recently. Tongtian Patriarch shook his head and said, "The Law of Time and the Law of Space are both independent. Not only in the Primordial World, in fact, in the Chaos, it is difficult for space and time to merge with each other, even for a master, it is impossible!"

Seeing that Saint Tongtian was unable to give any advice, Chu Yang was not disappointed and asked some other questions.

"The difficulty of the way of time lies in its flow of birth and death; the beauty of the way of space lies in its separation and combination, swallowing and spitting. You must remember that the two are safe and secure when they are independent, but once they touch upon the fusion, you must be extremely cautious. If you are not careful, it will backfire on you because of the disorder of the laws." Master Tongtian's words were quite solemn.

Chu Yang nodded repeatedly, carefully memorizing all of this, and continued to ask questions and verify them many times.

Upon seeing this, Master Tongtian showed a rare look of relief in his eyes, but he did not say much, just nodded secretly.

He became more and more convinced in his heart: with Chu Yang's qualifications, he will definitely occupy an unshakable position in the Jiejiao in the future. Even Duobao may not be able to compare with him!

On the other hand, Taoist Duobao's expression became a little subtle.

It is a good thing that his junior fellow apprentice has a high level of comprehension, but as the first disciple of Jiejiao, he does not feel jealous at all.

"Master, this is too biased!" Taoist Duobao coughed and muttered to himself in dismay.

Chu Yang seemed not to hear anything. He looked calm and composed below the stage, even showing a calmness as still as a mountain.

This made Duobao sigh even more, he was worthy of being his junior brother Xiao Lei, he thought he could not have such a mentality!

“Junior Brother Xiao Lei!” Taoist Duobao’s tone was restrained, and his original ease also dissipated a little. “Since you have come out of retreat, you must know that the next great calamity of Conferred Gods is coming. This great calamity is extraordinary. You and I are both direct disciples of Jiejiao. Now there are many disciples in the entire Jiejiao. If you are not careful in dealing with the great calamity, I am afraid you will be in danger of death!”

Chu Yang's eyes narrowed slightly: "Brother, please speak clearly."

The dark cloud of the Conferred God Tribulation had long shrouded the ancient world. As a saint, Master Tongtian naturally had a premonition of it, and therefore did not hide it from his disciples.

When Chu Yang was still in Yingzhou Island, some fellow disciples went to Yingzhou Island and conveyed the teachings of Master Tongtian to Chu Yang.

Taoist Duobao: "I have proposed to Master before that we hold a 'Jiejiao Competition' to test the disciples' cultivation results and to let everyone learn from each other and improve their strength before the great catastrophe comes. What do you think?"

“Brother, what you said is very good,” Chu Yang pondered for a moment, then agreed, “The catastrophe is approaching, and we disciples should learn from each other to prepare for any emergency. But this matter is of great importance, and it still requires the decision of our master.” After that, he turned his gaze to Tongtian Sect Master on the high platform.

Tongtian stroked his beard, as if thinking. After a moment, he nodded slightly and said, "Duobao's words are exactly what I want. This competition should be aimed at promoting the cultivation of disciples, enhancing the friendship among fellow disciples, and consolidating the strength of Jiejiao. Don't foster a competitive spirit that will lead to the killing of fellow disciples."

Taoist Duobao was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately bowed and said, "Disciple will follow Master's instructions! Disciple is willing to host this competition, please allow Master to do so!"

Master Tongtian nodded.

Duobao then turned to Chu Yang, "Junior Brother Xiaolei, I am going to invite Junior Brother Gongming and all the fellow disciples. I will need your help!"

Chu Yang smiled slightly: "Brother, you are too polite. It is my duty to serve Jiejiao."

The competition was thus decided, and Taoist Duobao began to prepare for it vigorously. He was responsible for arranging the competition process, formulating the rules, and coordinating the participation of disciples from various peaks.

Chu Yang took the initiative to undertake another important task - building a competition venue.

He already had a plan in mind. He planned to use his understanding of the laws of time and space, combined with his knowledge of the virtual universe in the Devouring World, to construct a special array space.

Although with his current abilities, he is unable to create a world as grand and complex as the virtual universe, it is more than enough to build a simplified version of the trial field.

Chu Yang informed Master Tong Tian of his idea and proposed: "I want to build a simulated trial field so that the participating disciples can experience various battle situations with disordered laws in person. This way, they can better hone their actual combat abilities."

A trace of appreciation flashed in Tongtian's eyes: "Xiao Lei, your idea is very novel. OK! If necessary, you can use the power of the Zhuxian Sword Formation."

After receiving Master’s approval, Chu Yang felt relieved.

He came to a secluded place on Jin'ao Island, sat cross-legged, and began to construct the formation space.

He made seals with his hands and muttered something. Mysterious runes flew out from his fingertips and intertwined in the air to form a dazzling curtain of light.

As time passed, the light curtain gradually condensed and eventually formed a huge vortex, slowly rotating and emitting heart-pounding spatial fluctuations.

At the same time, Taoist Duobao was also busy arranging various matters for the competition.

The disciples of Jiejiao claimed that tens of thousands of immortals came to pay homage to them, which was actually not an exaggeration at all.

After the news of the competition spread throughout Jiejiao, many disciples were excited.

The disciples of Jiejiao are competitive people. In the ancient times, those who can become disciples of a saint have a certain background or luck. Now such a grand event has undoubtedly become the focus.

We have to admit that Master Tongtian’s broad-minded spirit of teaching without discrimination has created the supreme prosperity of Jiejiao.

It is rumored that whenever Master Tongtian preached on Jin'ao Island, countless creatures came to listen.

Sometimes he would just casually wave his sleeves and utter a few words of Dharma, and countless sea dragons would reveal their true forms, or monsters in the mountains and forests that had not yet transformed would suddenly realize their human bodies - all of these things made these lucky creatures call themselves followers of the Jiejiao.

The most bizarre case was when a huge rock rolled down from a cliff. When the leader was preaching, it emitted layers of light and faintly condensed into the shape of a human head and a snake tail. When the light faded, the rock turned into a young man with delicate features, who knelt down to the leader on the spot and practiced here as a registered disciple of Jiejiao.

But later, the young man was fortunate enough to be given a name by the Master Tongtian, and became a genius with unlimited potential that was the pride of the Jiejiao. Later, he even became a disciple of the Holy Mother Wu Dang.

Chu Yang had heard about this before, and he knew that the transformed boy was just one of many geniuses.

It is rumored that within Jiejiao, there are some creatures who, because of their unique qualifications and extraordinary roots, often display extraordinary talents in their practice of Taoism.

To such a disciple with extraordinary background, Master Tongtian taught him everything he knew without reservation, which led to the emergence of many powerful people in Jiejiao.

However, although this highly inclusive atmosphere of the sect made Jiejiao prosperous for a while, it also posed hidden dangers.

There are many disciples, their cultivation levels are uneven, their backgrounds are also mixed. In addition, those with extraordinary talents often look down on others, so conflicts and frictions are inevitable.

Especially in recent years, rumors of an approaching catastrophe have spread from the outside world. The vague sense of crisis has made many disciples more restless, and competitions for victory can be seen almost every day. (End of this chapter)
