Chapter 154 - People Who Are Good At Using Dharma Treasures… (1/2)
The situation in Tus.h.i.+ta Palace today is rather peaceful, but… why does it smell like roasted cow dung?
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du glanced at the two young boys who were squatting in another courtyard and refining pills. Then, he looked at the old cow that was panting heavily under the tree. He shook his head with a strange expression and said, “Xiao Jin, Xiao Yin, don’t randomly refine pills. You’re disturbing me from resting.”
The two boys quickly stood up and obediently agreed.
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du did not lecture them.
Since he had been woken up, he made a routine calculation by pinching his fingers to see the recent events and if they were related to Ren School.
Since his master had tasked him with teaching, he could only be more concerned.
The first event he calculated was naturally the Three Sects’ Meet that he had predicted several times before.
The Three Sects’ Meet was not bad. However, there were too few disciples from Ren School. During the meet, they would appear weak… The young disciple that was favored by his teacher actually wanted to pretend to be sick so that he could be absent!
How can that do?
The Great Daoist Master knew that the person whom his teacher liked must be close to him. He was an example.
Fortunately, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du discovered it in time. When that little disciple secretly made all kinds of preparations, he had determined that the latter was using a technique to pretend to be injured. Therefore, he secretly made some corresponding arrangements…
It was none other than… pulling moves that were more brilliant than Li Changshou.
“Little Changshou, if you don’t come to Tus.h.i.+ta Palace, how can I be carefree?”
The Great Daoist Master smiled and continued to deduce matters related to the sect.
Soon, the Great Daoist Master obtained something…
Zhao Gongming from Third Uncle-Master’s place has been unusually active in recent years. He has been smas.h.i.+ng the Cave Abodes of others in the AparaG.o.dānīya Continent and chasing after experts from the Western Sect.
However, surprisingly, those matters did not blow up. Those who were beaten up often chose to let the matter rest.
“What does this have to do with my Ren School?”
The Great Daoist Master grabbed the projection of the Taiji Painting and deduced it carefully. However, he did not obtain much.
The secrets of the Saint’s disciples would be concealed by the Saint. Although the Grandmaster of Heaven was ranked last amongst the Three Pure Ones, he was ranked in the top three amongst the Saints, in terms of comprehension of the Heavenly Dao!
All the ones who were in the top three were the Saints of the Dao Sect.
Moreover, although the four Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng Swords and the Qingping Sword could not suppress destiny, they were also good at cutting off the heavenly secrets. Therefore, he could not use the Taiji Painting to deduce anything related to Zhao Gongming.
Therefore…
“What exactly does this have to do with my Ren School?”
The Great Daoist Master was a little puzzled. Thinking about the instructions given by his teacher, he could only stand up.
He had to go take a look.
Zhao Gongming, an expert who became famous at the end of ancient times. He joined the Grandmaster of Heaven together with his three sworn sisters. Before the four of them acknowledged their master, they were already famous. His own Dao had been set, and he was listed as one of the four outer sect disciples. He had obtained the legacy of the Grandmaster of Heaven, but he did not cultivate the Great Pure Dao.”
With the help of the Taiji Painting, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du could not deduce the cause and effect of the array, but he could barely deduce Zhao Gongming’s location…
The heavenly secret was filled with Zhao Gongming’s “Footprint”!
He left the Western Heavenly Gate and pa.s.sed through Kunlun. There was a Daoist at the edge of the continent. In just a short while, the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du arrived at the crime scene. From tens of thousands of kilometers away, he could sense Zhao Gongming’s aura.
However, Zhao Gongming was currently hiding in a few array formations. He did not know what he was doing. The Great Daoist Master quietly approached the array. With the power of the Taiji Painting’s projection, he managed to arrive at the side of the array silently and directly saw through the array formations.
However… at that moment, Zhao Gongming was foaming at the mouth. His Dao body trembled slightly. He pointed at the wounded expert of the Western Sect in front of him and gritted his teeth.
“Today, I was injured by your numinous treasure for no reason. I’m afraid I won’t be able to recover within tens of thousands of years… *coughs* Go to the spiritual mountain with me. I will not let you off today!”
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du frowned and was about to rush into the array to protect the experts of the Dao Sect. However, he soon realized that something was amiss.
Zhao Gongming did not seem to be injured…
After that, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du opened his eyes.
In the array formation, the two of them mocked and scolded each other for an hour. Zhao Gongming skillfully circled around the other party and entered the segment where they would vie to be “in the most terrible state”.
After the other party deprecated himself for a while, Zhao Gongming took out a Shadow Sphere and quickly suppressed the other party…
Although the process was several times more troublesome than the first time, Zhao Gongming still did it smoothly and seamlessly!
There was no other way around it. It was purely because he was skillful.
Zhao Gongming laughed confidently.
“Fellow Daoist, do you think we should settle this privately, or do you think that we should let this spread in the Primordial World?”
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was speechless. He suddenly understood something.
Could it be…
The Great Daoist Master did not appear immediately.
After Zhao Gongming, the Western Sect expert was done with his errands, he made numerous oaths and left…
Great Daoist Master Xuan Du pretended to meet Zhao Gongming by chance.
The two of them chatted for a while before the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du asked the question in his heart.
“Junior Brother Zhao, have you met someone from Ren School recently?”
Zhao Gongming was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that he had been seen by the Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Sect.
Zhao Gongming blushed and explained in embarra.s.sment, “Senior Brother, don’t be confused. That person bullied my good friend before the Six Essences Meet. Today, I’m just looking for him to vent my anger.”
The Six Essences Meet…
Xuan Du nodded with a smile and changed the perspective. “Junior Brother Zhao, have you seen the Sea G.o.d recently?”
“Senior Brother, you’re really smart.”
“That’s a member of Ren School,” Xuan Du said with a sigh.
Thinking about the scene just now and the complicated oath that the member of the Western Sect had made, Xuan Du had already made up his mind…
He had to think of a way to make that disciple become his junior brother!
If he were to enter the orthodox path of Ren School and become someone who followed the Great Daoist Master Xuan Duty, he might become a teacher of Ren School when his cultivation level was high. If that were to happen, he, the Eldest Senior Brother, would not need to do anything anymore.
“Senior Brother…” Zhao Gongming found a topic to talk about. “Senior Brother, are you going to attend the Three Sects’ Meet?”
The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was about to say something.
