Primordial Era: The Steady Senior Brother, Tongtian is Going Crazy

Fourth, there is the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!

This formation was originally created by the Demon Ancestor Rahu during the conflict between the Dao and the Demons, using the Four Swords of the Immortal Slaughter, which were innate treasures.

He once relied on this to fight against Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the other three patriarchs, and was known as the Four Saints who could not defeat him!

The most glorious moment was undoubtedly the Investiture of the Gods!

Tongtian set up the Zhuxian Sword Formation on Jin'ao Island and fought against the four great sages Laozi, Yuanshi, Zhunti, and Jieyin all by himself!

Unfortunately, the four saints happened to gather together, which led to Tongtian's defeat and the decline of the once-prosperous Jie Sect, which had attracted countless immortals to pay homage.

Although the four formations are not ranked, they can be considered based on their experience against the enemy.

The Zhuxian Sword Formation, which fought against the Four Saints single-handedly, can barely be called the supreme number one formation among the four great killing formations!

Zhang Zhuo wanted to learn a thing or two from the four swords of the Immortal Executioner.

It's not for anything else, but for the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation hidden within!

As everyone knows, the four great killing formations of the primordial world are unparalleled throughout the ages, comparable to those of saints, and everyone desires to obtain them.

He, Zhang Zhuo, was no exception.

However, the first three battles were currently in the hands of the Witch Clan, the Demon Clan, and the Eastern King Duke, respectively.

The only thing beside him was the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, and its wielder was none other than his own master.

After careful consideration, Zhang Zhuo decided to study the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation first.

Unfortunately, it was ultimately a supreme treasure that had been passed down through the ages, and it possessed an unparalleled aura of slaughter.

Fearing that Zhang Zhuo might be accidentally injured, Tongtian hesitated to allow him to observe.

But now, his master is suddenly willing to give it up?

It must be said that Zhang Zhuo was indeed moved in that instant.

But soon he shook his head: "Please explain what it is, Master."

As the saying goes, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Conversely, the greater the reward, the greater the risk!

Although the reward was very tempting, Zhang Zhuo was not the kind of person who would be blinded by a reward.

Upon hearing this...

Tongtian was speechless.

Other disciples, upon hearing that their master had made arrangements, would immediately respond to any call, accept the task without hesitation, and give orders at will.

But his own disciple is the opposite; he's the kind of person who won't act until he gets something in return.

Even if I explain the benefits, I will carefully consider the details before replying.

Tongtian finally understood: it would be too difficult to trick his disciple!

Left with no other choice, Tongtian had to explain the situation: "This is none other than the Three Religions Grand Competition, which will begin in three days!"

"A competition among the three religions?" Zhang Zhuo was taken aback.

But soon, as if sensing Zhang Zhuo's confusion, Tongtian's voice rang out again, explaining on his behalf.

"Didn't I recently have a duel with your two senior uncles... cough cough, we went to discuss the Dao?"

"But after countless eons, no victor has been decided. And now, by a stroke of luck, your two senior uncles and I have decided to have a disciple from within the sect take our place..."

Not long after.

According to Tongtian's explanation.

Zhang Zhuo then understood what the Three Teachings Grand Competition was.

As the name suggests, it is a contest between three sects.

These three teachings are none other than the Jie Sect, founded by my master, Shangqing Tongtian.

The Chan Sect founded by Yuqing Yuanshi and the Ren Sect founded by Taiqing Laozi.

It turns out that not long ago, when Tongtian sent the Three Immortals back, he went to discuss the Dao with Yuanshi Laozi.

As is well known, the Three Pure Ones were originally one entity, but later, due to differing beliefs, they split into three.

Even so, the three of them would meet every now and then to discuss philosophy.

The reason for discussing the Tao is nothing other than this.

The three were determined to prove themselves superior!

however.

Countless ages have passed, and even now, the distinction between superior and inferior remains unresolved.

On the contrary, the relationship between the three of them deteriorated, and they would make sarcastic remarks to each other whenever they met.

During a recent gathering, the three of them finally couldn't resist and made a pact to have a grand competition!

The Three Pure Ones knew that they were already saints, and if a battle were to break out, it would surely cause a tremor in the primordial world.

Even after countless cycles of time, no victor could be determined.

Since that's the case, why not let one of my own disciples fight in my place!

If the disciples win, then the sect has won, implying that the sect leader's doctrine is the most correct and superior to the other two. If they lose, then there is nothing more to say.

Thus, the Three Teachings Competition was held.

After hearing all this, Zhang Zhuo was stunned, and then his heart was filled with lingering fear and relief.

He said that his master had ill intentions!

This is a great opportunity for others to make a name for themselves in the grand competition between the three religions, after all, it's a chance to stand out in front of the three great sages!

But for Zhang Zhuo, it was an abyss!

Why did he spend ten thousand years in the primordial world? It was all to quietly seek immortality and, incidentally, collect the benefits given by the system.

May you live out the rest of your life peacefully and safely.

However, if one participates in the Three Religions Grand Competition and displays any talent, one could easily squander ten thousand years of hard work in a single day!

Besides, what good is winning? What benefits does fame bring? It only hastens one's demise.

Have you not seen any of the famous figures of the prehistoric era, except for the sages, who among them lived a comfortable life?

Just like Hongyun, the kind-hearted man of the prehistoric world. He was a universally acknowledged kind-hearted man in the prehistoric world, and he even gave up the position of saint.

But what was the result? He was still schemed against and died.

For example, Emperor Jun, Taiyi, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches are all very famous.

One could control the heavens and the other the earth, yet their fates remained the same: death and annihilation!

Take Kong Xuan for example. This is a bit less common. He was only converted, but he lost his freedom for life. What difference is there between him and being dead?

In conclusion, Zhang Zhuo learned a lesson from these people's experiences: the nail that sticks out gets hammered down!

"Well? Are you willing to help your master?"

After explaining, Tongtian looked hopeful and continued to ask questions.

Although, based on his opinion of Zhang Zhuo as a disciple, he was overly cautious and should not have participated.

But I still have some expectations.

After all, it was precisely because of his junior brother's personality, coupled with his likely hidden strength, that Tongtian couldn't help but have high hopes!

A disciple who is clearly very strong but overly cautious will obviously defeat his opponent in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong!

In this way, the winning rate will increase significantly!

"By the way, Master, what did you say in your last sentence?"

Zhang Zhuo neither answered nor denied, but instead asked a question that seemed to be puzzling.

Upon hearing this...

Although Tongtian was somewhat confused, he still replied.

"This matter concerns none other than the grand competition among the three religions, which will begin in three days!"

"No, let's look at the previous sentence."

"But you'd better think it over carefully, there will be a reward if you succeed."

"Still not right, add the previous sentence."

"Don't ask yet..."

"The previous sentence."

"Zhang Zhuo, listen to my command!"

"Reporting to Master, your disciple is not here."

"And then I suddenly remembered that there were still spirit fruits at home that had not been picked, medicine that was almost finished, and weapon crafting that was halfway done."

"I haven't visited Master's cave today either. Farewell!"

After a series of three rejections, Zhang Zhuo turned and left without looking back, his head bowed under a dark line.

As he left, he rubbed his eyes and muttered to himself as if he had just woken up.

"Huh? Wasn't I sleeping? How did I end up here?"

"Oh, I see, I must be dreaming."

"But this nightmare felt so real. I even dreamt about my master. It seems there really is something wrong with my cultivation lately."

……

"Zhang Zhuo!"

Upon seeing this, Tongtian's face instantly darkened, and he roared.

There was nothing he could do, even though he knew Zhang Zhuo wouldn't agree.

But how could he not be angry when someone acted so obnoxiously and compared him to a nightmare?
