Weird Cultivation: I am the Yellow-skinned Taoist Master

The Sumeru world is undergoing tremendous changes.

It was not the great change brought about by the battle between Chen Huangpi and the forty-nine Dao Lords.

Because He is not yet capable of destroying the entire Sumeru world!

He is now the Dao Lord, and a very powerful one at that.

But that's not enough to make it truly substantial!
Therefore, the entity that could cause such a massive change in the Sumeru world is another being.

Lord of Sumeru!

This is the strongest Dao Lord of the Sumeru World.

He should have remained asleep, but was awakened by the actions of the Lord of the Underworld.

The loud noise that Chen Huangpi heard before becoming the Dao Lord was the Netherworld Dao Lord trying to detonate the Sumeru World.

This matter was easier than the Lord of the Netherworld had imagined.

He simply destroyed the part of the world he was in, which immediately provoked the Lord of Sumeru.

Clearly, during the years that Sumeru Heavenly Dao remained in the old view.

The slumbering Lord of Sumeru and the Sumeru world are now more closely intertwined.

It was just a fleeting moment.

The Lord of the Netherworld found himself in a completely unfamiliar place.

The Dao Palace was incredibly tall and spacious.

Looking up, the roof of the Taoist palace was shrouded in mist, and the sun, moon, and stars were constantly in motion.

Looking down, the vast landscape stretches out beneath your feet.

Besides himself, the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao also saw a familiar figure.

The Daoist Master of Taixu, who had been tortured beyond recognition by the Demon Lord of Taigu.

The Dao Lord of Taixu was shirtless, his hair was tangled, his blood-red eyes were full of savage bestiality, and his body was in an abnormally contorted posture.

When Chen Huangpi left, he told Him that He could bow down to the Great Bone Demon Lord and no one would blame Him.

But the Daoist Master of Taixu did not.

Therefore, His consciousness collapsed, and He was tormented into a wild beast.

Looking at the Dao Master of Taixu at this moment.

The Lord of the Netherworld was filled with unbearable sorrow and grief.

He did speak well of the Daoist Master of Taixu, and although they weren't exactly close friends, they had been acquaintances for many years.

To put it somewhat inappropriately...

The three of them—the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao, the Lord of the Great Void Dao, and the Azure Emperor—had done many bad things.

But for them, it was only from their own perspective.

While carrying out these tasks, the three of them were essentially living together, looking after each other and offering each other advice.

But the Bone Demon Lord is too ruthless.

Even the Lord of the Netherworld dared not defy His will.

Upon seeing the Dao Lord of Taixu again, the Dao Lord of Youmingtian couldn't help but say, "Taixu, the skeleton... no, that bastard Taigu Demon Lord has defected and joined the Xuanzhen Dao Realm. He is no longer the Dao Lord."

"The cataclysmic change in the heavens and earth will soon be over. When that happens, you and I will be the first to sacrifice him to the heavens!"

"Roar!!!!!!"

The Dao Master of Taixu let out a terrified roar.

He looked around, he huddled in a ball, and he couldn't help but tremble when he heard the name of the Lord of the Bones.

It seemed that the torment had not stopped and was still imprinted in His bones.

Seeing this, the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao quickly reached out and pressed him down, saying with both anger and hatred, "Tai Xu, you don't need to be afraid anymore. The legendary Lord of Sumeru has been awakened by your foolish brother."

“You and I are currently in the palace of the Lord of Sumeru.”

“When He appears, I will ask Him to restore you to your original state and seek justice for you!”

That's why they say true friendship is revealed in times of trouble.

After being betrayed by the Demon Lord of the Great Bone, the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao finally understood a principle.

That is, unequal status cannot foster any affection.

He believed that if it were the Daoist of Taixu who wanted to commit suicide, even if He couldn't tell him or take him along because of the importance of the matter, He would still find a way to leave some clues so that He could also have such an opportunity.

He will definitely help me out.

Just as one might think of seeking justice for Him.

And this time.

Within this incredibly vast Dao Palace.

A transcendent will slowly awakened.

The Dao Lord of the Perfect World is formless, shapeless, and shadowless.

Essentially, it has already reached a state of transcendence.

Anyone who observes this Dao Lord can only see it from their own limited knowledge and perspective.

It's like a complete world, but when it's written on paper, it's just a flat surface. And there's no paper big enough in the world to depict the whole picture of the world.

Therefore, the Lord of the Netherworld Heaven saw the Lord of Sumeru.

But that was only what He saw of the Lord of Sumeru.

The Lord of Sumeru, whom He saw, appeared silently at the very center of the Dao Palace.

This is a middle-aged man with a resolute face.

He had long hair and a beard, and his rough hands looked like the result of long-term labor.

The Lord of Sumeru was wearing a long yellow robe.

Once it appears, it is as if it is the center of the world, and all eyes should be on it, and all things should revolve around it.

Flawless, supreme!
Even the Dao Master of Taixu fell silent at this moment, staring blankly at the Dao Master of Sumeru.

The Lord of the Netherworld could hardly contain his excitement.

Finally, finally, I have someone to rely on.

Finally, I don't have to worry about how to deal with those ruthless people in the Xuanzhen Dao world anymore.

The Lord of Sumeru has awakened; this time, the Sumeru World will be the victor.

Those who are the winners will not be eliminated one by one.

As for what will happen to the Xuanzhen Dao Realm?
To be honest, the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao really doesn't care.

I'm just grateful to be alive.

I am not a member of the Xuanzhen Daoist world.

however.

The Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao had not yet spoken out about his pent-up frustrations, and had recounted the shameful betrayal of the Lord of the Skeleton Dao.

Then the Lord of Sumeru spoke.

His very first words nearly made the Netherworld Heavenly Dao Lord fall to the ground in fright.

"Lord of the Azure Heavens, I have long admired you."

These words resonated deeply within the mind of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao Lord.

Who? The Lord of the Azure Heavens?

Isn't this the Sumeru World?
Why has the Lord of the Azure Heavens arrived?

No, the Lord of Heaven can come, but why does He come? When does He come?
Even the Lord of Sumeru has awakened, how dare He still come!

A person's name, the shadow of a tree.

It is difficult for the Lord of the Netherworld to remain calm.

A few feet away from the Lord of Sumeru.

A figure dressed in a white Taoist robe slowly emerged.

It was none other than the Lord of the Heavenly Dao!
The old Taoist priest in green robes had the Nine-Leaving Bell hanging at his waist and the Tai Sui Killing Sword coiled around his side, or as the more appropriate name would be—Dongzhen!
It was different from the earth-shattering phenomenon of the appearance of the Lord of Sumeru.

The appearance of the old Taoist priest in the green robe was nothing out of the ordinary.

He just stood there, and you couldn't tell his cultivation level or what his purpose was.

But if you look away...

Then one will subconsciously ignore it.

The Lord of the Netherworld swallowed hard, suddenly realizing something.

I must say, I am no match for the Lord of Sumeru.

After all, he was just a Dao Lord of one era in an ordinary world.

The Lord of Sumeru is the Lord of the Perfect World.

This is absolutely a true prodigy.

When the Lord of Sumeru awakens, he naturally has the ability to pinpoint the whereabouts of the Lord of the Azure Heaven.

But what about before that?

Could it be that the Lord of Heaven had already arrived in the Sumeru World and had been watching from the sidelines without my noticing...?

In reality, the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao had misunderstood.

The old Taoist priest in the green robe wouldn't even notice him.

From the very beginning, the old Taoist in green robes had been in this Taoist palace, simply waiting for the Lord of Sumeru to awaken.

"The upheaval in the world is about to end."

The old Taoist in green robes said indifferently, "I thought that guests should be treated with respect, and it is not proper to refuse to see them. However, the Sumeru Heavenly Dao and I see each other all the time, so you, the Sumeru Dao Master, should not be left out."

The Lord of Sumeru nodded: "That makes sense, but in doing so, it seems that I am somewhat lacking in manners."

"For so many long years, I have been sleeping here."

"If I could meet you sooner, things would probably be very different."

He has indeed been asleep all along.

Not only after the Sumeru World came to the Xuanzhen Dao Realm, but even longer ago, long after the Sumeru World became a perfect world, it had been sleeping ever since.

For countless years, He could only instinctively perceive many things happening in the Sumeru world.

There's nothing else we can do.

This situation only improves when the Sumeru Heavenly Path leaves the Sumeru World.

Only then could He gradually make Himself and the Sumeru world more closely connected.

And now, the Lord of the Azure Heavens has arrived.

Although He was neither worried nor afraid of this Lord of the Dao, He still had to treat this critical juncture with caution.

"Fellow Daoist, you must have come here to take Huang Tian away, right?"

The Master of Sumeru thought for a moment and said, "It claims to be your disciple. Although it is difficult for me to associate it with you, my friend, based on the information I have, it should be quite close."

"He is not Huang Tian."

The old Taoist in the green robe corrected him, "He takes my surname and is called Chen Huangpi. He is a child who grew up in the Ten Thousand Mountains."

Master Sumeru nodded: "When do you plan to take him away, fellow Daoist?"

There's one "it" before and one "he".

Different titles, different tones.

The Lord of Sumeru Dao didn't actually have any intention of testing or not testing.

Beings like Him and the Lord of the Azure Heaven, whatever they do or say, are actually pointing directly to their true nature.

Because there is absolutely no need to reveal any hidden meaning.

One Yellow Heaven is not enough to make Him take notice.

After all, it's just the Heavenly Dao within an era.

Being born as a human is very special and unique, after all, it is a world's last-ditch effort to ascend to a perfect world.

But that's all there is to it.

The worlds within the chaos are as numerous as the Milky Way, yet these many worlds are so far apart that they are invisible to each other.

How many worlds failed to ascend to the perfect realm is probably impossible to say for sure.

The fact that Heaven descended to earth to become human is something that even the Lord of Sumeru has only witnessed once, but it is obvious that in the entire Chaos, it is nothing new.

But a truly perfect world...

Before the Sumeru Heavenly Dao left, the Sumeru Dao Lord was able to know through Him exactly how many perfect worlds existed within the chaos.

The answer is half.

This half is the Sumeru World.

The Xuanzhen Dao Realm has indeed reached its peak, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should have no problem advancing to the Perfect World.

However, the Lord of Sumeru did not value the so-called Yellow Heaven descending to earth to become human.

What He values ​​is the identity of being the disciple of the Heavenly Dao Master.

Without the Heavenly Lord, and merely the Yellow Heaven descending to settle all matters, the hope of achieving a perfect world in this final gamble is extremely slim.

The best outcome would be nothing more than another Sumeru world.

As fellow Dao Lords, and even as people who have been through similar experiences, the Sumeru Dao Lord highly respected the Cangtian Dao Lord and admired his actions.

He himself believed that he would never have gone down this path.

The old Taoist in green robes glanced at the Master of Sumeru: "I've already said that all who come are guests. My disciple has only been here a short time, he hasn't even had a chance to sit down properly. What, are you trying to kick him out?"

The Lord of Sumeru said calmly, "If you are willing to keep him, I have no objection. On the contrary, I will treat him as my own son and raise him with care." "You can't raise him well, and you can't raise him properly."

"Why?"

"Because you don't look like someone who can raise a child, and your Sumeru World has nothing. Huangpi'er is a living person, and without food and water, he will starve to death."

"They'll starve to death..."

The Lord of Sumeru nodded noncommittally: "Then it seems that you are not here for him, but for me."

Hearing these words, the Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao felt as if he were seeing another Great Bone Demon Lord.

The Lord of the Azure Heaven has already come to stand before us.

If they weren't after you, who else would they be after?
If you're after that dried yellow peel, why come all the way here?
The old Taoist in the green robe chuckled and said, "Actually, it's not like that. I came here for that good-for-nothing disciple of mine. That child is usually unruly and a born troublemaker."

"See, seeing him courting death and causing trouble, how could I, this humble Taoist priest, sit idly by?"

"I have to cover for him, take him back, and then give him a good beating afterwards."

"I was thinking of hanging him under the tree and whipping him with bamboo sticks for eight hundred years or so, hoping it would teach him a lesson, or at least ensure his safety for ten or eight years. But after looking at it for so long, sigh..."

At this point, the old Taoist in the green robe suddenly laughed: "Although what this child does is a headache, when he fights with those Taoist masters, he still has some of my style."

You should know what Chen Huangpi did in the Sumeru World.

The old Taoist priest in the green robe knew everything immediately after he entered.

Furthermore, when Chen Huangpi attained enlightenment, the old Taoist in the green robe was actually watching silently from the side.

I saw that Chen Huangpi called himself the Master of Huangpi Dao.

The old Taoist priest in the green robe suddenly realized that he was really old, and his only child was gradually catching up with him and no longer needed his support as before.

The unruly disciple recklessly dug around in the Sumeru World, and foolishly dug up the very source of the Sumeru World.

This is simply courting disaster.

Although He Dao was incomplete and became the Dao Master, he was still a Dao Master nonetheless.

They did this because they had the confidence to do it, not just recklessly.

So at that moment, the old Taoist priest in the green robe felt genuinely gratified, and his desire to hang Chen Huangpi up and beat him was extinguished.

But when we see Chen Huangpi become a Dao Lord, the first thing he does is try to fight forty-nine Dao Lords all at once...

The old Taoist priest in the green robe wished he could transform into one of the Taoist masters and personally teach Chen Huangpi what it meant to not underestimate anyone.

Although those forty-nine Dao Lords had no further potential.

They can only live in the past.

But as soon as he became the Dao Lord, he wanted to fight forty-nine people by himself.

With your Yellow Heaven that hasn't even been born yet, plus the Taixu Heavenly Dao that has been devoured?

If one side is in a slightly better situation...

Does achieving enlightenment mean you can crush everything?

Fortunately, the old Taoist priest in the green robe did not personally intervene.

After their first encounter, Chen Huangpi immediately changed his tactics, turning his attention to a Dao Lord and relentlessly attacking and devouring the opponent's epochal world.

From this point, the old Taoist priest in the green robe knew there was no need to watch any further.

I don't need to watch over my silly apprentice anymore.

But his actions...

In particular, instead of following the path he had planned for him and waiting for his descent into the world to merge with the Dao, he went to merge with the Dao in the Sumeru World. Not only did he obtain the origin, but he also devoured the Sumeru World from a certain era in the past.

These are no small matters.

Therefore, the old Taoist in green robes came to the Lord of Sumeru.

He had to cover for his disciple.

The Lord of Sumeru naturally understood the Lord of the Azure Heaven's meaning.

This precisely hit His sore spot.

"The original source of the Sumeru world, aged tangerine peel, cannot be taken away."

The Lord of Sumeru calmly said, "Lord of the Azure Heaven, although this is our first meeting, I think you should know what I am about to do, and I also know what you are about to do."

"These two things are not in conflict right now, and neither of us will have a conflict at this juncture."

He first emphasized his bottom line.

Then he reiterated his own and the Lord of the Azure Heaven's respective situations.

however……

If it were the Grand Master in purple robes who came, perhaps this matter could be discussed.

The purple-robed Grand Master was not particularly bloodthirsty.

Moreover, the origin obtained after the Sumeru World merged with the Dao actually did not help the Xuanzhen Dao Realm in advancing to a perfect world.

If it were the White-Robed Second Abbot...

amount……

The two abbots in white robes will not come to see the Master of Sumeru.

He would only team up with Chen Huangpi, master and disciple, to devour them completely before discussing anything else.

Only the Green-Robed Master of the Three Views, with his extremely bloodthirsty nature and arrogant demeanor, could reason with people, but he didn't say much.

"That origin wasn't given to you."

The old Taoist in the green robe frowned and said, "Huang Pi'er attained the primordial energy in the Sumeru World, and neither the Sumeru World nor the Sumeru Heavenly Dao said anything. Why do you want to take it back?"

"Then let him stay in the Sumeru World."

The voice of the Lord of Sumeru was slightly cold: "When your matter is settled, and when my matter is settled, I will hand it over to you in its entirety. Do you agree to that?"

Why do you disagree?

The old Taoist in green robes sneered, "At worst, I won't leave either. You want to replace the Sumeru Heavenly Dao and use the Xuanzhen Dao Realm to bring this mutated world back on track."

"Therefore, not a single bit of the original essence can be missing."

"But this is your business, not mine. You have concerns, but I have none!"

"What's the point then?"

The Lord of Sumeru said helplessly, "Lord of the Azure Heavens, what you want is for the Xuanzhen Dao Realm to advance to a perfect world, but the Sumeru World is already stronger than the Xuanzhen Dao Realm. Although you and those cultivators have almost closed the gap..."

At this point, the Lord of Sumeru paused for a moment, then added, "Even as your opponent, I admire you."

“But when you suppress the Sumeru Heavenly Dao, you are also affected by it.”

"If you fight me now, although I probably have little chance of winning in my current state, your plan will also fail, and you will not be able to suppress the Sumeru Heavenly Dao."

"You don't have a second chance, and neither do I."

These words were heard by the Lord of the Netherworld, giving Him a sense of sudden enlightenment and profound shock.

No wonder the Lord of Sumeru and the Lord of Cangtian were able to have a very amicable conversation when they first met.

It turns out that neither side wants to fight right now.

They each had their own agenda.

The Lord of Sumeru wants to completely control the Sumeru world, acting as both referee and player. He also wants to resolve the anomalies in the Sumeru world and make it a truly perfect world.

However, it was only after the Lord of the Azure Heaven first tricked the Sumeru Heavenly Dao that this opportunity was created.

At this critical juncture, the Lord of Sumeru has no intention of starting the most brutal war. However, a war is inevitable. Whether the Xuanzhen Dao Realm succeeds or fails in its advancement, it will be a great tonic for the Sumeru World.

Moreover, it's impossible to let go of all those past grudges.

Even if the Lord of Sumeru were willing to let go, He wouldn't dare to presume. With the fierce personalities of those cultivators in the Xuanzhen Dao Realm, all those sacrifices and efforts would become a joke.

As for the Lord of the Azure Heaven Dao.

The Lord of the Netherworld Heavenly Dao held him in even higher esteem.

This Heavenly Dao Lord suppresses the Sumeru Heavenly Dao; he is truly an unparalleled and formidable figure throughout history…

But upon closer examination, it seems quite normal.

Even before he merged with the Dao, the Heavenly Dao Lord was already considered the closest being to the Dao. In other words, he was someone who hadn't merged with the Dao but already possessed the combat power of a Dao Lord, and he was no ordinary Dao Lord.

After achieving Dao, one cannot rely solely on the blessing of the Heavenly Dao for all their combat power, and remain stagnant for an entire era.

Even thinking about it seems impossible.

If they were to come up with some other extraordinary methods, it would seem even more reasonable.

Looking at the Lord of Sumeru, looking at the Lord of the Azure Heaven.

The Netherworld Heavenly Dao Lord's heart was in his throat.

As a fellow Dao Lord, He felt like a novice cultivator who had just embarked on his cultivation journey in front of these two. Even if the matter did not fall on him, any decision made by either of them at this moment would affect his life.

He expects, He reveres.

He hoped that the Lord of the Azure Heaven would agree to the Lord of the Sumeru Dao's request.

Let's leave the original essence behind, and take the aged yellow peel with us!

I beg you, Lord of Heaven!
“If you keep nagging me, I’ll cut your head off.”

The old Taoist in the green robe narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze sweeping over the Netherworld Heavenly Dao Lord, causing the Lord's face to turn deathly pale with fright.

"Yes, yes, yes, this junior wouldn't dare, this junior wouldn't dare!"

The Lord of the Netherworld was flexible and assertive, and immediately addressed the Lord as a junior.

But if you really think about it, He has actually lived for far more eras than the Lord of the Azure Heaven.

However, He dared not bring it up.

They shifted their gaze away from the Lord of the Netherworld.

The old Taoist priest in the green robe sighed and reached out to strike Dongzhen.

Dongzhen emitted a high-pitched sword cry!

Amidst the clanging of the sword, the fighting spirit surged, and the killing intent almost ignited into flames.

This sword has never feared any opponent.

Even the most powerful being, it dares to challenge!

"The reason I came out this time is actually to find a few Dao Lords and kill them."

The old Taoist in green robes said indifferently, "It's just that Huang Pi'er has finally proven himself. He can handle those Dao Lords on his own and has learned how to do so. He has finally gotten his revenge, but I have no work to do."

"When people get old, what they fear most is becoming useless."

"Fortunately, I am still of some use."

"The origin of that Sumeru world is not important to Huangpi'er or the Xuanzhen Dao Realm. Why should I return what I obtained through my own abilities?"

Actually, it's not that it's unimportant. To be precise, what's more important is whether the Lord of Sumeru can reclaim this bit of primordial energy.

What they were fighting for wasn't even this little bit of primordial energy.

It's a battle for the first move, a chance to be one step ahead.

"Does this mean that you and I must fight now, until we are both severely injured?"

The gaze of the Lord of Sumeru turned unusually cold.

If a fight were to break out now, He would essentially have no way out.

Knowing everything, the Heavenly Dao of Sumeru will destroy Him without mercy.

He wouldn't engage in a life-or-death struggle with the Heavenly Dao Lord right away, but instead would relentlessly attack the Xuanzhen Dao Realm.

First, I'll destroy your Xuanzhen Dao Realm and shatter all your hopes.

Anyway, my fate was already sealed.

Thinking of this, the Sumeru Dao Lord gave his final warning: "Heavenly Dao Lord, don't forget that once you and I clash, it will be impossible to subdue you. The Sumeru Heavenly Dao will turn around and suppress you. At that time, you may turn around and devour Chen Huangpi and the Xuanzhen Dao Realm halfway through your fight with me."

"What's there to be afraid of? Huangpi'er has been smart since he was a child."

The old Taoist priest in the green robe said calmly, "Upon seeing this situation, he will immediately end the cataclysmic change in the world, and then his era will begin."

The Lord of Sumeru asked, "Without you, could he have dealt with the Sumeru Heavenly Dao?"

The old Taoist in the green robe replied, "That's something for him to consider. As for what happens after his death, I'm willing to accept the consequences of my bet."

"I just don't know if you dare to gamble?"

"How could I not dare!"

The Lord of Sumeru narrowed his eyes: "However, I have another more suitable way to gamble. If I win, I will leave my origin behind. If I lose, I will not say no to whether you stay or leave."

"What are you gambling?"

"Let's bet on whether Chen Huangpi can withstand the pollution of the Sumeru World!"

"Just like the leader of the Jietian Sect, just like Chen Daoxing, and those other cultivators, they were all corrupted and distorted beyond recognition by the power of the Sumeru World!!!"

As he spoke, the Lord of Sumeru suddenly stomped his foot.

The boundless landscape beneath my feet melted away like winter snow meeting the warm sun, transforming into a completely different scene.

The scene depicts Chen Huangpi, the Yellow-skinned Daoist Master, battling against the forty-nine Daoist Masters.

Receiving the primordial energy of the Sumeru world had no significant impact.

The Sumeru world itself has changed, and this primordial energy has no evil aspects.

What it can influence are the past eras that Chen Huangpi devoured.

The more He swallows.

The more it is affected and distorted, the more severe the distortion will be.

With the activation of the Sumeru Dao Lord, in that instant, the most vicious, evil, and manipulative power that could distort people's minds and amplify all the darkness in their hearts was unleashed.

P.S.: Writing the ending was really difficult, not because I didn't know how, but because my hand inflammation flared up again. (End of Chapter)
