Chapter 72: Chapter 72, Bai Jin Complains

Primordial raised his cup and took a sip, then heavily placed it on the table, slowly saying, "Among the Tongtian Disciples, only Bai Jin catches my eye."

Tongtian snorted coldly, proudly saying, "Even all your disciples combined are no match for Bai Jin."

"You~" Primordial felt a surge of anger in his heart, really wanting to teach him a lesson!

Taishang helplessly said, "After becoming saints, everyone’s temper seems to have grown, can’t we just sit down properly and discuss the Tao?"

"Discuss the Tao?" Suppressing his anger, Primordial nodded and said, "Fine, then let’s discuss the Tao. Today, we’ll see whose Tao is more correct."

Tongtian arrogantly said, "At the Peak of Immortals lies the saint, the most arrogant of saints is Tongtian. Cutting the heavens to seize the Tao, who can compare?!"

Primordial coldly said, "At the end of the great Tao, who stands at the peak? Once encountered, the Primordial Dao turns to void!"

The two men locked eyes, sparks flying, filled with killing intent.

Taishang opened his mouth, then desolately sat at the side, their realm is so high, what should I say?!

While The Three Pure Ones were discussing the Tao at Taiching Peak, Bai Jin sneaked alone to the valley where Lord Duobao was in seclusion, carefully peering inside, only to see Lord Duobao lying on the ground, his aura even more formidable, with no third person present.

Relieved, Bai Jin set up a defensive perimeter around the valley and then strutted into the valley.

Sensing the presence, Lord Duobao immediately flipped over, staggered, shook his head, his eyes dazed, only feeling his head buzzing.

Bai Jin stood still, watching Lord Duobao with a full smile on his face.

Regaining his composure, Lord Duobao asked, "Bai Jin, what are you here for?"

Bai Jin bowed, grinning as he said, "Elder brother, I am here to challenge you, please enlighten me!"

Lord Duobao’s heart tightened, he became alert, thinking there must be a plot behind the sudden challenge!

Condescendingly smiling, he said, "You think you’re worthy of challenging me? Bai Jin, go back and cultivate for another twenty thousand years!" Immediately, he floated up and sat cross-legged above the Cold Pond under the waterfall.

Bai Jin walked forward, smilingly saying, "Elder brother, you’re not scared, are you?"

"Haha~ Come challenge me when you break through to Daluo! You’re too weak now."

Bai Jin stopped in his tracks, feeling suffocated and agitated, his elder brother had learned to counter rhetorically, and he couldn’t even respond, how frustrating!

Taking a deep breath, Bai Jin consoled himself, don’t be angry, don’t be angry, getting sick from anger benefits no one. He continued walking forward, saying, "Then, would you please give some guidance, elder brother?"

Lord Duobao shook his head, "You should go find Wudang instead! I don’t have time."

Bai Jin walked to the pondside, solemnly bowing, saying, "Elder brother, please."

"Haha~" Lord Duobao snorted coldly, persevering like this, must be scheming, would I, Duobao, be fooled? Such an underestimation of me.

Bai Jin stood straight up, his voice melancholic, "Elder brother, your aura is even more formidable!"

Boom~ A column of water burst from the lake, within which Lord Duobao surged into the sky, roaring, "Bai Jin, don’t flee! Today we settle this."

Then a giant Green Light Big Handprint descended from the sky, covering the sky, the intense pressure causing the valley below to thunderously sink, creating a gigantic handprint a kilometer in diameter, the lake water roared and torrents of water spurted out like dragons crisscrossing.

Bai Jin stood in the middle of the handprint, looking up at the giant green hand in the sky, his face donning a radiant smile, his hair fluttering wildly.

Bang~ A massive handprint smashed Bai Jin into the soil, flinging up hundreds of meters of dirt and rocks.

...

Above Taiching Peak, as the discussion of Tao progressed, various strange phenomena appeared, heavy rain, wild winds, purple energy, Jing Guang, Heaven and Earth twisted into a bundle of light and shadow, a heavy oppressive aura rose from Kunlun Mountain, causing all beings to feel uneasy and alarmed.

In the evening, this bizarre situation suddenly disappeared, Tongtian and Primordial had already vanished on Taiching Peak.

Taishang was drinking alone, laughing loudly while sipping his wine: "Dao conflict~ Dao conflict~ Dao conflict!"

As he laughed, his voice grew lower and lower, filling the entire Taiching Peak with a melancholic air, gradually turning indifferent.

Alone, Tongtian sat in the Shangqing Palace, frowning deeply, silent.

Thump~

Thump~

Thump~

...

A series of urgent knocks sounded, followed by a piercing scream outside: "Master, save me!"

Tongtian woke up startled, waved his hand, and the palace doors burst open with a loud bang. A figure rushed in and fell on a cushion, crying and shouting: "Master, save me! The senior brother wants to kill me!"

"Lift your head." A powerful voice commanded.

Below, Bai Jin raised his head, his face swollen and bruised, with dark circles under his eyes, his Daoist robe tattered, his breath unstable, looking as pitiful as one could be.

The corners of Tongtian’s mouth twitched into a smile, the heavy mood in his heart disappearing greatly, he couldn’t help but chuckle and said, "What happened to you?"

Bai Jin said miserably: "Master! You must stand up for me! The senior brother attacked me harshly as soon as he saw me! He nearly beat me to death!"

"Duobao~" A voice called out from afar.

A Green Light shot from a distance, arriving in front of the palace and transforming into a chubby figure, it was none other than Lord Duobao.

Duobao strode into the palace, seeing Bai Jin kneeling, immediately felt uneasy, quickly knelt on the cushion, and said: "Disciple greets Master!"

Sitting in the principal seat, Tongtian said emotionlessly: "Did you do this to Bai Jin?"

Hesitantly, Duobao said: "I did spar with junior brother indeed, but the injuries are definitely not this severe."

Bai Jin turned his head, crying out in anger: "Senior brother, are you suggesting I inflicted such serious injuries on myself just to frame you?"

With a neutral expression, Duobao said: "It’s not something you couldn’t do."

Bai Jin bowed his head and wailed, "My dear, respected, beloved Master! You must stand up for me! Senior brother mercilessly attacked me and now he even denies it, accusing me of hurting myself; his actions are downright reversing black and white, inverting Yin and Yang, it is an outrage for both gods and demons!"

Duobao felt a rising sense of foreboding, cried out in alarm and anger: "You are talking nonsense!" he quickly added: "Master, it was Bai Jin who insisted on sparring with me, and he deliberately dropped his guard just to frame me."

Bai Jin turned around, pleadingly said: "Senior brother, in all good conscience! I sincerely sought your guidance in cultivation, but who knew you would strike with such ferocity!"

Frustrated, Duobao said: "You... You were clearly cursing me."

"What did I curse you for?"

Duobao opened his mouth, wondering if saying "headstrong" counts as a curse? It seems not really, but he felt it was indeed cursing.

In the principal seat, Tongtian solemnly said: "Duobao, your ruthless action toward your junior brother is unacceptable, you are punished with three months of solitary retreat."

Duobao opened his mouth, reluctantly accepted: "Yes, disciple willingly accepts the punishment."

"Go!"

"Yes!" Duobao stood up and walked outside.
