Brother Kong Xuan

After some bargaining, Yuan agreed to Yangmei's proposal.

They also agreed to attack Hongjun together nine days later.

Ah……

Nine days.

Yuan felt that if everything went well, after nine days, Yangmei and Cang would already be part of this world.

Or, he could transform it into a golden elixir by himself.

However, to be honest, Yang Mei's body, the hollow willow, is a very good material that can be used to refine magic weapons...

……

"Mother, my master has given me billions of miles around the Undying Volcano. You should go and attain the Dao of Hun Yuan now."

Inside Wutong Cave, Jin Ling said this to Yuan Feng.

"it is good."

Yuan Feng naturally would not refuse this. Moreover, as Yuan Feng had devoted a lot of energy to Hongjun's affairs in the past, he also obtained a ray of Hongmeng purple energy.

"When the war breaks out, mother and brother, don't leave my sight. This way, you and I can take care of each other."

After that, Jin Ling continued to speak to Yuan Feng and Kong Xuan.

"Don't worry."

In response to this, Yuan Feng and Kong Xuan spoke to Jin Ling at the same time.

"Don't we need to cooperate with the teacher this time?"

After finishing speaking, Kong Xuan continued to ask Jin Ling.

"I'll go ask."

Hearing this, Jin Ling hesitated slightly, but finally stood up and flew towards Shangqing Realm.

It was a feeling that was hard to describe. Jin Ling felt that the relationship between himself and the Three Pure Ones had become very subtle since they parted at Zixiao Palace.

"At that time, the second brother will hold the Immortal Execution Sword, and the eldest brother will hold the Immortal Slaughter Sword."

In Shangqing, Tongtian handed over the Zhuxian Sword and Luxian Sword to Taishang and Yuanshi respectively.

"What about the Juexian Sword and Xianxian Sword that were given to the disciples?"

The figure quietly appeared in the hall, and Jin Ling looked at Tongtian with a smile.

"Are you here? I was just about to look for you."

His eyes fell on Jin Ling, Tongtian was slightly stunned, and the Juexian Sword and the Xianjian Sword appeared in his hands.

"Why did you come now?"

After finishing his words, Tongtian continued to ask Jin Ling.

In fact, Tongtian did not inform Jin Ling from the beginning...

Tongtian didn't know why, but he felt that the distance between him and Jin Ling seemed to have become much greater since they parted at Zixiao Palace.

Nothing happened obviously.

"I'm going to transfer some spiritual stones to arrange for my mother to attain enlightenment."

Jin Ling stepped forward and took the Juexian Sword and Xianjian Sword from Tongtian's hands and said this to Tongtian.

"When the time comes, I will hold the Jue Xian Sword, and my brother and mother will hold the Xian Jian Sword."

After finishing speaking, Jin Ling continued to speak to Tongtian.

"Where's Xuan?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Yuanshi's expression changed slightly and he asked Jin Ling.

"My brother has accompanied my mother to attain enlightenment. The world is not peaceful right now. I am worried about my mother going to the wilderness alone."

Hearing this, Jin Ling said this to Yuanshi.

"Ah."

In response, Yuanshi did not say anything else, but just nodded slowly.

The atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

"Drink tea."

Seeing this, Tongtian moved his lips and said this to Jin Ling.

"Hey."

His eyes fell on the table where Tongtian was looking, and Jin Ling took two steps forward to pour tea for himself.

"Jin Ling, we will not attack the two saints, not now and not in the future."

Looking at Jin Ling who was drinking tea with his head down, Yuan Shi suddenly said this.

"Not only that, if we win this battle, one day we may be able to merge with the two saints and Nuwa into one."

After saying this, Yuanshi continued to speak to Jin Ling.

No matter what the original intention was, this is the only way to do it now.

Whether he likes it or not, Hongjun has already made his move, and Yuanshi will naturally not sit idly by and wait for death.

Now, there is the Yuan check and balance outside and the saints unite inside.

This is the only chance to transcend.

If the situation stabilizes in the future, there will be no more chance.

The only regret was that Jin Ling was forcibly separated from him.

"Let's win first."

After drinking the tea in the cup, Jin Ling slowly stood up and looked at Tongtian.

"Master, I will take my leave."

Looking at Jin Ling in front of him, who had never been so polite since he became his disciple, there was not a trace of joy in Tongtian's eyes.

"sit down."

Therefore, Tongtian said this to Jin Ling.

"Oh."

Hearing this, Jin Ling was immediately delighted, and without saying anything, he sat directly in front of Tongtian.

"Second brother, eldest brother, I have something I want to talk to Jin Ling about."

After his eyes fell on Yuanshi and Taishang, Tongtian spoke slowly.

After looking at each other, Yuanshi and Taishang's figures quietly disappeared here.

"Master."

After watching Yuanshi and Taishang leave, Jin Ling also looked at Tongtian.

"Ling'er wants to be independent?"

Looking at Jin Ling in front of him, Tongtian's eyes were surprisingly calm.

"Master, why do you say that? It's just that now, I have actually stood beside the Grandmaster."

Looking at Tongtian in front of him, Jin Ling's eyes were a little sad.

To be honest, Jin Ling really didn't want to face such a scene.

What is meant by being in harmony with the Tao?

Jin Ling didn't care that much.

In fact, in Jin Ling's opinion, he is doing well now.

He can live forever and has power. What he said to Hongjun in the past was not just empty talk.

Jin Ling really had that idea.

However, he is not free. Hongjun wants to merge with the Tao, so he not only regards Yuan, Cang, and Yangmei as opponents, but also himself, the Three Pure Ones, the Two Saints and even Nuwa as opponents.

Jin Ling knew very well that Hongjun chose him because he wanted him to be his right-hand man.

Unite the weak and defeat the strong, and those that are neither strong nor weak will naturally pose no threat.

This is a truth that everyone understands.

But there are some things that you cannot refuse even if you know they are wrong.

In the Zixiao Palace in the past, Hongjun could choose Jin Ling or the Two Saints.

But no matter who Hongjun chooses, no one can refuse.

Anyone who refuses will end up dead.

Today, Hongjun has absolute authority, at least in front of all the saints.

"If you win this battle, we'll meet again someday. I, your disciple, may be your opponent."

After finishing speaking, Jin Ling continued to speak to Tongtian.

"Is it really that important to be in harmony with the Great Dao?" Tongtian asked with some confusion, looking at Jin Ling in front of him.

"Master has always believed that all living things have a glimmer of hope, but where is that hope now?"

After finishing his words, Tongtian continued to add.

Where is it?

On Jin Ling, and also on himself.

Now all the saints, including Hongjun, are united in facing the outside world, and the game between them has not yet begun.

"Master, you are good in every way. You are loyal, you value feelings, and you are willing to give all living beings a chance to survive."

Standing up, Jin Ling walked forward to pour tea for Tongtian and spoke in a low voice.

"But the shortcomings are also quite obvious: impulsive, easily irritable, and easily proud."

After filling Tongtian's teacup to 70% full, Jin Ling also poured himself a cup.

"Before I leave, Master, I would like to give you some advice."

Raising the teacup, Jin Ling said this to Tongtian.

In response, Tongtian just slowly raised his head and looked at Jin Ling in front of him.

“There is only one position that is consistent with the Great Dao.”

"Although the Two Saints are weak, please do not look down on them, Master. Although the Three Pure Ones are dear to you, please do not trust them too much."

"When all possibilities have been ruled out, the final conclusion, no matter how bizarre it is, is still a fact."

"I hope that one day, I can have a long talk with my master, drink tea and play chess again."

After drinking the teacup in his hand, Jin Ling placed the teacup on the table in front of Tongtian, turned around and strode out of the hall.

"Deputy Leader!"

As soon as he walked out of Hunyuan Palace on the first day of the new year, Jin Ling saw Zhao Gongming, Duobao and other four inner sects of Jiejiao, four outer sects and the seven immortal attendants standing in a row in front of him.

"It's been a while since we last met, I miss you so much, could we have a drink together?"

Shaking the wine jug in his hand, Zhao Gongming had his signature smile on his face.

"What? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Are you unfamiliar with each other?"

Seeing this, Jin Ling suddenly laughed. With his hands behind his back, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and he asked Zhao Gongming in a pretended angry tone.

"You are now a saint after all. Gongming, please give me some face and call me a quasi-saint, but to put it bluntly, I am just a golden immortal."

"How dare I call you second brother like before?"

Zhao Gongming was not afraid at all. He just smiled and spoke to Jin Ling in a sarcastic tone.

Just now, the smile that Jin Ling showed at the beginning explained everything.

The second brother is still the second brother.

Never changed.

"Is there anything in this world that you, Zhao Gongming, dare not do?"

In response, Jin Ling just chuckled and walked forward.

"I am the one who has dragged you down."

With his arms spread out, he embraced Zhao Gongming on the left and Duobao on the right, and walked forward aimlessly.

"What are you talking about, second brother? There are three saints in one religion. We, as disciples, should be honored to be there."

Hearing this, Zhao Gongming said to Jin Ling without any hesitation.

Looking at Nan Ji, who was not much different from himself in the past, and Xuan Du who became saints one after another, Zhao Gongming would be lying if he said he was not envious.

But Zhao Gongming also knew very well that if the opportunity was concentrated on Jiejiao again, his two uncles might feel uncomfortable.

But it doesn’t matter.

Anyway, he won't die for a while, so becoming a saint is only a matter of time.

"Good brother, when I become rich someday, everyone present here will receive a primordial purple aura!"

With a joyful smile on his face, Jin Ling spoke loudly with great pride.

"Then Gongming wishes Second Brother prosperity as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Zhao Gongming said to Jin Ling without any hesitation.

At present, the disciples of Jiejiao are still unaware of the change in the relationship between Jin Ling and the Three Pure Ones.

"In the past, in Zixiao Palace, our master bestowed upon us the Qiankun Ding. Unfortunately, with the war imminent, it is difficult to arrange it. After the war is over, if we are still alive, all the Chaos Towers in Shangqing Realm will be replaced with Xiantian ones!"

With a noncommittal smile, Jin Ling walked while looking at the Acquired Chaos Tower not far away and smiled to both sides.

"As expected of the second brother, you now have two innate treasures in your hands, right?"

Hearing this, Duobao was stunned for a moment, then asked Jin Ling.

"Two."

Jin Ling just smiled without commenting and didn't say anything more.

The innate treasure is no longer the top treasure.

The Xuan Gu Pagoda in Xuan's hand in the past was far superior to any innate treasure.

After all, the innate treasures Pangu Banner, Tai Chi Diagram and Chaos Bell were just transformations of Pangu Axe.

However, the Xuan Gu Pagoda is on the same level as the Pangu Banner.

"Second brother, just stay here."

Looking at the fairly spacious space in front of him, Zhao Gongming proposed to Jin Ling.

"Okay."

Jin Ling naturally would not refuse this.

"Gongming, pick pine nuts for me."

The efficiency of the quasi-saint was quite high. A large jade table appeared here almost instantly.

After sitting down, Jin Ling handed the five-needle pine in his hand to Zhao Gongming.

"I want to try it, too. Is it true that having someone peel the pine nuts for you can make them more fragrant?"

After saying this, Jin Ling looked between the mountains and rivers and murmured softly.

Before he became Tongtian's disciple, Jin Ling's every word and action had to take into account the thoughts of the Three Pure Ones, the Two Saints, Nuwa, Hongjun and even many of his fellow disciples.

Although he seems to be the number one person under the Saint, Jin Ling has not achieved the absolute freedom under the Saint.

After becoming a saint, he still had to consider the thoughts of the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, the Two Saints and even Hongjun.

It seems that my cultivation has indeed improved, but it seems to be of no use.

In this case, what is the point of simply improving one's cultivation?

Isn’t it because of Hongjun that we have to go against the Three Pure Ones?
If you want to obtain true freedom, there is only one way, and that is to be in harmony with this great way.

In this way, one can achieve absolute freedom within the Tao.

If I had not developed any desires at that time.

I want to be in harmony with the Tao!
"I guess it's not as delicious as what our teacher and grandmaster eat."

Holding the pine nuts in his hand and picking them slowly, Zhao Gongming said this to Jin Ling.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Hearing this, Jin Ling came back to his senses and asked Zhao Gongming.

"Gong Ming is not the first person under the saint."

In response to this, Zhao Gongming said to Jin Ling without any hesitation.

"The number one person under the Saint..."

Laughing in silence, Jin Ling took the wine cup handed to him by Duobao and clinked glasses with Ma Sui.

"What's the point of such an empty reputation?"

Putting the wine glass on the table, Jin Ling continued to ask Zhao Gongming.

"Hmm... my face has become precious."

After hearing this, Zhao Gongming pondered for a moment, then laughed and said this to Jin Ling.

"Wrong, right? I don't care about face. According to Gongming, I was the number one person under the so-called saint in the past. But even so, all the immortals and Buddhas in the sky are my elders."

While clinking glasses with Duobao, Jin Ling continued to speak to Zhao Gongming.

"Speaking of this, Duobao has to say a few words."

Hearing this, Duobao immediately looked at Jin Ling.

"You always call me Uncle Master, and your reputation for being humble and polite has spread throughout the world, but even we, your disciples, have to follow suit and call you Uncle Master..." (End of this chapter)
