Primordial Era: Taking the blame to become a saint, proving one's path through eccentricity!

Chapter 163 [Inviting the Defender into the Trap, Allowing for Swift Advance and Retreat] (Please Subscribe)

Before long, Yuanshi Tianzun, Zhunti Daoist, and Jieyin Daoist arrived at Shouyang Mountain, where Taiqing Laozi's Daoist temple was located, with perfect understanding.

Upon hearing the purpose of their visit, Taiqing Laozi frowned: "The influence of the Myriad Realms Trading Platform has already spread throughout the Three Realms and gained the recognition of all living beings in the primordial world. Even if you build a similar platform, how can you compete with it? Blindly imitating will ultimately lead to inferiority!"

He didn't think highly of their ideas.

Upon hearing this, the Guide Daoist immediately replied, "We naturally have some innovations as well! We just need Fellow Daoist Taiqing's support!"

Before he finished speaking, he directly projected the Ganges Dream Realm onto the screen: "In my dream realm, novice beings can not only freely communicate and trade, but also dream of entering the vast universe to experience other cultivation methods, and even attempt to break through realms within the dream, perhaps even cultivating various supernatural powers!"

"The Dao of Dreams encompasses everything. To limit it to mere communication and transactions would be rather narrow-minded. I wish to further expand the Dao of Dreams!"

The Daoist who guides us created the method of attaining enlightenment through dreams. In the primordial world, if he is second to none in the Dao of Dreams, absolutely no being would dare to claim to be number one.

He has the confidence to do so!

Upon hearing this, Laozi of the Taiqing Realm remained unmoved, only his fingertips twitched slightly, and endless light of the Great Dao flowed, also evolving into a magnificent dreamscape: "The Great Dao of Dreams, this old Daoist has also studied. Dreams are the surface, the heart is the essence. Rather than calling it the Great Dao of Dreams, it is more accurate to call it the Great Dao of the Heart!"

"Whether one dreams of entering the vast world or attains enlightenment in a dream, one cannot escape the shackles of one's own mind!"

"But the mind, if unrestrained, is like a raging flood or a ferocious beast. Fellow Daoist, can you guarantee that you won't mix your own desires into your dreams?"

As everyone knows, the two Western Saints are most skilled in the art of salvation. If someone enters the Ganges Dream Realm, even the most vicious person will find it difficult to escape having their consciousness altered, laying down their weapons, and converting to Buddhism.

This is why many practitioners avoid Western teachings like the plague!

Who would want their consciousness altered?

Take Jin Chanzi for example. He was originally a ferocious beast of the primordial era, one of the five great insects of the primordial world. If he had not been forcibly converted by the Daoist Zhunti with Buddhist teachings, how could he have converted to Buddhism and become the Sandalwood Merit Buddha in the Buddhist system?

"this……"

The Guide was speechless for a moment. He and the Zhunti Daoist did indeed have the idea of ​​guiding those with affinity, but they did not expect that Taiqing Laozi would see through their thoughts in one sentence.

In fact, the Ganges Dream Realm is not simply a dream, but a reflection of the Great Dao of the Guide. Even if he does not actively use the method of salvation, as long as living beings enter it, they will develop a heart of conversion.

But that was one of their goals!

If there are no benefits at all, why would they bother building a platform?

Disciples of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect can gather fortune by buying and selling various elixirs and spiritual treasures on the Multiverse Trading Platform, but their Western region is too barren to emulate the Human and Chan Sects.

Not to mention comparing it to the Jie Sect!

It should be understood that the Jie Sect's teachings are inclusive, and the Tongtian Sect Master is infallible in all laws, with his disciples being exceptionally proficient in all cultivation arts.

Perhaps they are slightly inferior to the Renjiao and Chanjiao in alchemy and weapon crafting, but in other acquired Dao techniques, they can crush the disciples of the two sects.

Especially regarding the number of disciples, even if we can't focus on quality, we can focus on quantity!

Were all the acquired spiritual treasures sold by Biyou Tiangong crafted by Duobao Daoren?

of course not!

Only a few high-grade acquired spiritual treasures were made by Daoist Duobao; the lower-grade and middle-grade acquired spiritual treasures were all made by other disciples of the Jie Sect.

Jin Gu Xian Ma Sui, Yan Zhong Xian Luo Xuan, and others are all experts in weapon crafting, which is why Yun Zhongzi could not compete with Biyou Tiangong.

There are too many of them!

Yuanshi Tianzun frowned upon hearing Taiqing Laozi's analysis: "Should I follow Tongtian's example and take on more disciples? Sometimes, having more people can be advantageous!"

Then, he looked at Taiqing Laozi.

He knew that in this era, the other party had taken Du'e Zhenren and Jinchi Dapeng as his personal disciples. Could it be that they were also preparing to strengthen the Human Sect?

"I'll build this platform!"

Yuanshi Tianzun sighed softly, and above his head, amidst the auspicious clouds, the causes and effects of all things shone, instantly weaving together a magnificent web of cause and effect.

The three thousand great paths lead to the same destination. Since the Dream Path can build a spiritual network and a trading platform for all worlds, the Great Path of Cause and Effect can naturally do the same!

[Global Knowledge Space]

This is a platform constructed by the Primordial Celestial Venerable using the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, woven from the Great Dao of Sages, and is no different from the Myriad Realms Trading Platform.

However, he kept in mind Laozi's words and blindly imitated them, which ultimately led to a poor imitation. He then added several new features to it.

For example: Illusory Realm Dao Cultivation, Opportunity Guidance, Spatial Teleportation, and Sage Refining Weapons.

If enough resources are consumed, one can even ask the Primordial Celestial Venerable to personally craft magical treasures for them, or guide them to places of opportunity.

He is prepared to directly endorse the Universal Knowledge Space in the name of a saint.

Yuanshi Tianzun and the two Western Saints ultimately failed to reach an agreement; he could not stand by and watch the two Western Saints undermine Xuanmen.

But the two Western saints did not give up and created the Pure Land of All Heavens.

However, although no consensus was reached on some issues, both sides still pledged to jointly suppress the Multiverse Trading Platform in certain aspects.

[Multiverse Trading Platform]

[Global Knowledge Space]

【The Pure Land of All Gods】

When a sage takes action, it is naturally extraordinary. Within just a few days, the three major platforms of Myriad Realms, Universe, and Heavens have formed a tripartite balance of power.

Of course, this only applies to the Primordial True Realm!

The sages in the Heavenly Realm and the Netherworld have not intervened for the time being, but their actions have still attracted many powerful rogue cultivators to settle in.

Of course, the shops opened on the Multiverse Trading Platform were not closed; they simply increased the prices of pills and spiritual treasures by 30%.

However, in the Universal Knowledge Space and the Pure Land of All Heavens, the original prices are still being used, clearly indicating an attempt to wage a price war against the Multiverse Trading Platform.

"What a brilliant move to strike at the heart of the problem!"

Seeing the actions of these sages, Zhao Gongming couldn't help but sneer, "Now that they see the benefits, these sages can't wait to reap the rewards!"

"We can wage a price war, and compete on the quantity of elixirs and spiritual treasures. Who can rival our Jie Sect?"

Zhao Gongming's understanding of wealth was growing day by day. He knew that although those saints had copied the Myriad Realms Trading Platform, the advantages that the Jie Sect had were still something they could not have.

That's because there are many people and great power!

Even if the Sage Taiqing and Xuandu were highly skilled in alchemy, they could only pursue the high-end route. In contrast, the Jie Sect had at least a thousand disciples capable of refining elixirs.

Even if Yuanshi Tianzun and Yun Zhongzi were highly skilled at crafting weapons and produced the best quality ones, could they match the sheer number of their disciples fighting together?

Their platform can attract many Taiyi and Daluo cultivators, but those at the bottom level are not qualified to join.

"Whether it's fortune or wealth, the number of living beings is the foundation!"

"How much good fortune can they possibly accumulate with their high-end strategy?"

Zhao Gongming remained completely calm, watching as Doushuai Danfang and Yuxu Crafts adjusted their prices, without even making any counterattack.

Seeing this, Xuan Yin couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sages dwell high in the clouds, how could they ever look down upon the common people? They don't even understand the needs of the common people, so how can they compete with us and the Myriad Realms Trading Platform?"

However, seeing so many Daluo and Taiyi masters entering the Universal Knowledge Space and the Pure Land of All Heavens, Xuan Yin looked at Zhao Gongming and changed the subject, saying, "But we can't just do nothing! Healthy competition is the key to the continuous flow of wealth. If these saints don't get involved, I'm actually prepared to create another platform under a different name and compete with myself!"

"Now that those guys have stepped in, it's actually saved me a lot of trouble!"

Fortune can only be called fortune when it circulates. If one entity dominates or controls the entire trading channels of the Primordial True World, the Multiverse Trading Platform will only become stagnant water.

Competition drives progress.

"Since those sages have copied our Multiverse Trading Platform, we can also learn from the architecture of the Universal Knowledge Space and the Pure Land of All Heavens. In addition, we should force those sages to continue competing with us!"

"Only in this way can the wealth of the Primordial True Realm flow like a river!"

Xuan Yin looked at Zhao Gongming and laughed, "Tell me, if I were to list Master's Nine Heavens-Slaying Swords on the Myriad Realms Trading Platform, offering a chance to comprehend them for every 100,000 spirit coins spent, wouldn't all those Great Luo Golden Immortals and Quasi-Saints go crazy trading them?"

"what?"

Zhao Gongming was immediately startled: "Junior brother, aren't you taking too big a step? Will our teacher agree to your idea?"

The Nine Swords of Heaven-Slaying are like the Nine Primordial Seals of the Chan Sect and the Nine Secrets of the Human Sect; they are supreme divine powers containing the core Dao of sages.

Cutting off cause and effect, defying fate and changing destiny, creating heaven and earth, the great Dao of birth and death, encompassing everything.

Although the Tongtian Sect Leader was magnanimous, only disciples of the Jie Sect could comprehend his teachings before.

This far surpasses the Chan Sect!

It should be noted that only direct disciples of the Chan Sect are qualified to cultivate the Nine Seals of the Primordial Beginning, and the situation of the Ren Sect is not much different from that of the Chan Sect.

The law should not be lightly transmitted, and the Dao should not be lightly bestowed; this is one of the most fundamental rules of the Primordial True Realm.

"What are you afraid of?"

Xuan Yin laughed and said, "Since we're going to make a move, let's do something big. If our teacher dares to pass on the Nine Swords of Heaven-Slaying without reservation, would the saints of the Human, Chan, and Western Sects dare to do the same?"

"If you don't dare, you'll naturally be at a disadvantage and will be suppressed by the Multiverse Trading Platform!"

"But if I dare, I'm willing to spend some resources to exchange for the opportunity to comprehend it, and then completely transform the supernatural powers of those sages!"

Xuan Yin's Buzhou Mountain supernatural power is a pirated version of the Yuanshi Nine Seals, specifically the Heaven-Turning Seal. With the blessing of the Buzhou Mountain God's position, its power is even stronger than Guang Chengzi's original Heaven-Turning Seal.

"Piracy is not a crime, borrowing is justified!"

Thinking of this, Xuan Yin couldn't help but laugh and say, "If the supernatural powers of the Human, Chan, and Western sects flow into the Primordial True Realm in this way, wouldn't that be considered a victory for our Jie Sect's principle of teaching without discrimination?"

He was eager for the three religions of the Human, Chan, and Western sects to enter into a competition, so that he and Zhao Gongming could use their existing advantages to continuously wear them down.

Unless the three religions of humanity, doctrinal teachings, and Western religions are willing to open their doors wide and change their fundamental doctrines.

but……

This is also what Xuan Yin wanted to see.

The more disciples the three religions of humanity, divination, and the West have, the more risks they will bear during the Investiture of the Gods, and they can certainly help the Jie Sect share some of the burden.

The 48,000 auxiliary gods and those heavenly soldiers and generals are not worth mentioning, but the 365 righteous gods require sufficient cultivation to take on the role.

These people, if they didn't come from the Jie Sect, then they could only have come from the Human Sect, the Chan Sect, or the Western Sect!

"I'll make you all pay!"

Before establishing the multiverse trading platform, Xuan Yin had already planned everything. No matter what methods those saints would use to deal with it, as long as they entered this scheme, the Jie Sect would benefit.

As for wealth, power, and the fortune they bring, neither Xuan Yin nor Zhao Gongming ever considered taking it all for themselves.

Zhao Gongming's goal was to use this fortune to attain the Great Luo realm and achieve a divine position, rather than to take the fortune back to himself.

If the fortune of the primordial world cannot circulate and is firmly controlled by the lineage of the sages, what difference is there between it and a stagnant pool?

That's not what they want to see!
