Awakening from the Devouring Starry Sky

Chapter 699: The Three Pure Ones
A small world full of birdsong and flowers is not conspicuous in the Three Realms. However, some truly well-informed powerful people know that this is the secluded place of Lu Zu Lu Dongbin who is wandering in the Three Realms. The whole small world is relatively peaceful and there are no powerful people. Lu Dongbin has set up powerful formations and restrictions to make it like his own back garden.

After Lu Dongbin left the Daxia world with Di Ke and Yu Wei, he first came here and asked the incarnation who stayed here to settle and teach Yu Wei, while his original body took Di Ke to the Taoist temple of Sanqing Taoist.
"Where is this?" Dico originally thought that Lu Dongbin would take him to the Taoist Palace in the east of the heaven. However, after Lu Dongbin performed the Great Teleport, Dico found that they had come to a vast world. With Dico's keen perception, he was able to judge that this was a big world, where the power of heaven and earth was much richer than those small worlds, and even richer and more abundant than the power of heaven and earth in the Daxia world.

"This is Sanqingtian, a big world opened up by our master. It is much more vast than the Daxia world and can almost rival the heaven. Most of our disciples and many gods and immortals of our Taoist sect live in seclusion and practice meditation here. There are fewer people staying in the Taoist Palace in heaven," said Lu Dongbin as he took Di Ke to fly away.

From afar, Dicko saw a towering and steep mountain floating above the sky. From the middle of the mountain to the top, there was mist and clouds. On the top of the mountain above the clouds, there was a huge and ancient palace with dazzling light. There were also a large number of palace buildings scattered around it.

"Ahead is the Yuxu Palace on Kunlun Mountain, which is also the Taoist temple of our master and the holy place of our Taoist palace." Lu Dongbin took Di Ke through the layers of clouds, bathed in the dazzling aurora, and flew straight to the ancient palace on the top of the mountain.

Amid the cry of a crane, a fairy crane swooped down from mid-air and landed outside the Yuxu Palace. It transformed into a boy in white and greeted us: "Greetings to Master Uncle Donghua, greetings to Junior Master Uncle, our Grandmaster is waiting in the hall, please follow me."

"This is Brother Nan Ji's beloved disciple, Bai He Tong, who usually stays by Master's side," Lu Dongbin introduced Di Ke through voice transmission, and then took Di Ke and the white-clothed boy to Yuxu Palace.

Senior Brother Nanji? Dick was moved when he heard this. Nanji Immortal? This White Crane Boy is a true immortal, so what level of power should his master Nanji Immortal be? Daozu? The Three Pure Ones Taoists have many disciples, and there are several true gods and Daozus? There should be no fewer than the Daozus under Bodhi Patriarch, right?
"This Yuxu Palace... such a strong aura, is it an innate treasure?" As soon as he approached the Yuxu Palace, feeling the vast and powerful aura of the entire Yuxu Palace, and comparing it with those pure Yang-grade magic weapons he obtained in the prison of the stone tablet world, Dicko was naturally able to roughly judge the grade of this Yuxu Palace.

After Dicko stepped into the Yuxu Palace, he felt the invisible and mysterious life force. He couldn't help but look up subconsciously with an moved expression. In the hall of the Yuxu Palace, which was even more magnificent than the main hall of the Tianmang Palace, there were dozens of figures sitting cross-legged in front of the coiled dragon pillars with their bottoms and tops hidden in the fairy mist. They were looking at him curiously.

"They are at least at the level of celestial gods or true immortals. Even the first few have such ethereal and powerful auras, they must be Taoist ancestors. Are they all disciples of the Three Pure Ones? The foundation of this Taoist Palace is too strong." Even though he was mentally prepared, facing the gazes of so many powerful Taoist masters at once, Di Ke couldn't help but feel a little shocked and nervous.

The Sanqing Taoist priest in a green robe sat high up above. He had a restrained aura, a cold and stern face, and a pair of eyes as sharp as swords, giving people the horrible illusion that the three realms were being destroyed.

"Master!" Lü Dongbin was the first to step forward and bowed, and Di Ke, who was following closely beside him, followed suit and bowed: "Greetings, Master!"

The White Crane Boy who quietly walked to the left of the Taoist Sanqing saw this scene and looked at Di Ke in astonishment. The Taoist ancestors who were sitting in the front rows on both sides of the hall and the Yuxu disciples with different looks and temperaments in the back also looked at Di Ke in surprise. They obviously didn't expect that this little brother who met his master for the first time would be so rude. The Taoist Sanqing was also stunned, but he rarely smiled: "Okay! No need to be polite! Di Ke, from today on, you are my 113th direct disciple. I have accepted more than a hundred disciples, except for some who died in the middle, now you are exactly the number of ninety-nine. Among these eighty-one disciples, except for you, the weakest one is at the level of a god or immortal. I hope you can become a god or immortal soon, don't let me down."

"Dico will definitely live up to Master's expectations," Dico replied calmly, and the Three Pure Ones Taoist nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, your heart of Taoism is indeed good. Dico, let me introduce you to your eldest senior brother, Nan Ji Xian Weng. He became Master's disciple before I was the Three Pure Ones Taoist and before I founded the Taoist sect, and he also became a True God Taoist Patriarch very early. He is not well-known and does not like to fight, but he is already at the top Taoist Patriarch level."

The first person on the left below, an old man with white hair and beard, a big forehead, and a white Taoist robe, nodded slightly to Di Ke with a gentle smile, just like the warm sunshine that makes people feel good about him. The natural and invisible appeal also made Di Ke believe that the other party had a great heart of Taoism. I am afraid that he has a lot of insights into the illusory mental power. This eldest disciple of the Three Pure Ones Taoist is obviously not simple!

"Your third senior brother Chi Jingzi is also a great Taoist," said the Taoist Sanqing, pointing at the thin and inconspicuous old man in a black Taoist robe who was attacked by the Immortal of the South Pole.

Third Senior Brother? Di Ke, who had already bowed to Nan Ji Xian Weng, immediately bowed to Chi Jing Zi who also smiled and nodded at him and called him "Third Senior Brother". However, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. Where was the Second Senior Brother? If Di Ke guessed correctly, the Second Senior Brother should be the famous Guang Cheng Zi. Why wasn't he here? Did he not come, or did he die?
Then, under the introduction of Taoist Sanqing, Di Ke also got to know his seventh senior brother Yu Ding Zhenren, who was also wearing a moon-white Taoist robe, carrying a fairy sword, and had a sharp aura; Turtle Spirit Mother, who was wearing a purple Taoist robe; and his twelfth senior brother Qingxu Tianzun, who was holding a whisk and looked very elegant. They were all powerful beings at the level of True Gods and Taoist Ancestors.

Apart from these five brothers and sisters who have reached the level of True Gods and Taoist Ancestors, the remaining brothers and sisters who have reached the level of Heavenly Gods and True Immortals, except for a few who are ranked in the top thirty, the rest are actually ranked in the dozens or even outside the top one hundred. The brothers and sisters who Di Ke met today who are ranked in the top thirty are less than half, and even Lu Dongbin is only the nineteenth brother.

"Could it be that those senior brothers and sisters who were ranked in the top thirty but were not seen today have all died?" Today in the Yuxu Palace, Di Ke had seen fifty or sixty senior brothers and sisters. Most of them were here, which meant that among the living senior brothers and sisters who did not come today, there were only more than twenty.

The reason why Di Ke guessed that most of the top-ranked senior brothers and sisters had died was because he knew the cruelty of the ancient war of destruction. Whether it was Taoism, Buddhism, the human race, or some idle true gods and Taoist ancestors in the Nuwa camp, many of them had died!

If it weren't for that battle, Patriarch Bodhi and his disciples almost all stayed out of the battle. It's likely that he wouldn't have four True Gods and Taoists under his tutelage today.

"Okay, Baihe Tong'er, take your junior uncle to find a cave to settle down first!" After introducing Di Ke and a group of senior brothers and sisters to the Three Pure Ones Taoist, he gave instructions to Baihe Tong'er.
