Immortal Father
Chapter 802 - 802 280 Desolate Era Crosstalk Artist

802: Chapter 280: Desolate Era Crosstalk Artist 802: Chapter 280: Desolate Era Crosstalk Artist Xuandu decisively ended the struggles, the Three Teachings gathered at Holy Mother’s Palace.

The four Taoists from the Western Sect, simply froze mid-air, their brows furrowed as they stared at the Great Mage and yet…

dared not utter even a half word in question.

Even the words ‘heretical paths’, they could only bow their heads and swallow down.

For there’s no denying, if there were a list of [the most untouchable experts below the Desolate Era Sect Hierarch], this ordinary-looking, extraordinary-tempered young Taoist before them would certainly be on it.

In ancient times, a song praised this Taoist:

“Nüwa swung her willow branch to create a Dao Body, the true self took refuge and was mentored by Taiqing.

Originally from the Ninth Heaven cultivating purity, when the Human Race faced catastrophe, anger took form.

The Heavenly Emperor’s path was severed by a ruler’s measure, the Tai Chi Diagram covered the demons’ court.

Alone ruling over Xuandu’s triple yuan meeting, even the chaotic gods and demons can’t be named.

The creator must have the spirit of a hero, being nonaction yet inherently true in nature.

Not hindered by wind or fire in advancing Taoist Sect’s cause, once the Mage descends the mountain, The Great Dao is shocked.

Li Ping’an took the initiative to ascend on a cloud, greeting the Xuan Du Da Fa Shi with a bow: “I’ve seen my respected elder.”

His address as ‘respected elder’ was quite fitting, calling by the ‘name’ of the Great Mage while also respecting him as the eldest senior of the Taoist Sect.

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi flipped down from the Green Ox, his tall figure in long robes shaking out wide sleeves, returned the greeting with a Taoist bow to Li Ping’an, his smile gentle and elegant.

“The disciple from Human Teachings greets the new Heavenly Emperor; today, I am specially here by my master’s command to congratulate the Heavenly Court on its recruitment of talents.”

Guang Chengzi and Jin Ling Saint Mother, leading their attendant immortals, rose to greet Xuan Du Da Fa Shi with a Taoist bow.

Guang Chengzi called out: “I have seen brother Xuandu.”

Jin Ling Saint Mother simply called: “Elder brother!”

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi smiled and nodded gently: “My fellow brothers and sisters are too kind; please be seated.”

“Respected elder, please take the seat of honor.”

Li Ping’an invited him, but Xuan Du Da Fa Shi just smiled and shook his head, descending from the cloud first, paying his respects to Nüwa, calling her mother and inquiring after her well-being, then exchanging greetings with Human Emperor Xuanyuan, before casually pointing at a meditation cushion and sitting down beside Ningning Mu.

Ningning Mu proactively stood up to pay her respects, and then stepped down from the White Jade Cloud Platform, inviting the Great Mage and Li Ping’an to sit together.

As the immortals on the platform took their seats, the White Jade Cloud Platform drifted forward again from the West.

Outside the gates of the Holy Mother Palace, the Human Race Qi Cultivators seethed with rage, their eyes aflame as they glared at the immortals of the Western Sect.

Indeed, a decade and a half ago, the reputation of the Western Sect wasn’t so bad.

Though the Western Sect had cut off the ancient Human Race’s fortune, they used the reasoning “we must also leave some living space for the Hundred Clans,” which was somewhat understandable.

But in the recent decade, the Western Sect’s nurturing of Demon Cultivators and the chaos they brought upon the Human Race’s rear became fully exposed;

Around the time the new Heavenly Emperor rose, the Western Sect had a hand in several major events;

How could the Human Race Qi Cultivators not know that the Western Sect was the Human Race’s current great foe?

Above the cloud platform, a wisp of Dao Charm surrounded Xuan Du Da Fa Shi, as his conversation with Li Ping’an reached the ears of every being present.

Including the arrivals from the Western Sect.

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi asked, “Your Highness, the Heavenly Emperor, being close to the Heavenly Dao, do you know the cause of the Dao Immortal Tribulation?”

“There are two reasons,” Li Ping’an said with a smile,

“One is that the Heavenly Dao protects the weak and repels the strong, and the second is that the Heavenly Dao itself needs to perfect and control enough of The Great Dao.

And there are too many Daluo and Taiyi between heaven and earth, each Golden Immortal of Da Luo controls one Great Dao, and Great One Golden Immortals have a deep influence on The Great Dao, all of which can hinder the operation of the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, based on the increasing number of mortals and flourishing, the Heavenly Dao upholding the will of heaven and earth, will brew a great calamity and descend it.”

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi slowly nodded, then asked again, “If that’s the case, could reducing the Golden Immortals of Da Luo and the Great One Golden Immortals outside the Taoist Sect alleviate the Dao Immortal Tribulation?”

“It certainly could,” Li Ping’an’s voice was also quite gentle, his handsome face revealing a friendly smile,

“The Heavenly Dao cannot control all The Great Dao, The Great Dao is eternal while the Heavenly Dao is transient, as long as the number of strong beings among the living is reduced to a certain extent that does not affect the operation of the Heavenly Dao, the calamity’s destiny during the great tribulation will naturally be correspondingly weakened.”

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi slowly nodded, “Then where should we seek out the Daluo and Taiyi outside the Taoist Sect?”

Li Ping’an, Xuan Du Da Fa Shi, Guang Chengzi, Jin Ling Saint Mother, Chanjie Masters, and Human Race Qi Cultivators all turned their heads simultaneously towards the western skies.

The expressions on the faces of the four old men on the White Jade Lotus Dais had become exceedingly stiff.

Right then, they were utterly uncomfortable.

Two of the older men, whose hearts were not firm and whose determination was weak, were already sweating coldly from their foreheads, and were ready to retreat at any moment.

Jin Ling Saint Mother’s lips revealed a faint smile, and her eyes began to sparkle with a golden light.

Guang Chengzi slightly furrowed his brow but did not busy himself further with the Immortal Taiyi and Immortal Yuding who were turning to look toward the envoys from the West.

Li Ping’an intentionally waited a little longer.

It seemed as if a taut string appeared in the air, and it was still tightening, as if it would snap.

Finally, he said with a gentle laugh, “Respected elder, the Dao Immortal Tribulation is still far away, and our Taoist Sect certainly can’t just start indiscriminately slaying others without reason; that would also harm the peace of heaven.”

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi smiled and said, “The Emperor is right, our Taoist Sect is a place for upright cultivation, and we must not tarnish the prestige of The Three Pure Ones.”

The four old Taoists on the White Jade Lotus Dais breathed a sigh of relief.

But Li Ping’an’s tone suddenly changed:

“However, respected elder, I have heard that within the Western Sect, there is a large number of fierce demons harbored, many of whom are experts with myriad karmic obstacles.

If these can be eradicated soon, it would free up much of The Great Dao and significantly alleviate the tribulations destined for our sect.”

“That makes sense!”

Xuan Du Da Fa Shi raised an eyebrow at Li Ping’an:
