The God Deification Ceremony War had lasted several years ever since its explosion. It was getting extremely tricky nowadays, which ignited the hatred between the Tribe of Severity and the three religions. With both having disciples sustaining deaths and being listed on the Investiture of the Gods, the two sides' hostility was increasingly amassed. The climax came when Immortal Tai Yi of the Clan of Enlightenment killed disciple Shi Ji of the Tribe of Severity.
During the Investiture of the Gods, Nezha killed Shi Ji's maidservant, and Shi Ji was killed by Immortal Tai Yi when she came to condemn it. Whereas at present, though Nezha had become Liu Er's disciple, Shi Ji's fate of being killed by Immortal Tai Yi's Nine Dragon Fire Cage had not changed. It seemed that there was a destiny. Though Minghe, the most variable one, turned up, something was still unavoidable.
Shi Ji, being an outer disciple of the Tribe of Severity, boasted a profound cultivation and was a rare Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal among the outer disciples. Furthermore, the Tribe of Severity, with a large number of disciples, did not have many female disciples. Thus, its female disciples all maintained close relationships. Shi Ji got along well with the Ladies of the Three Stars. Therefore, the Ladies of the Three Stars were furious after knowing that Shi Ji was dead and listed on the Investiture of the Gods.
Then, in the main hall of Jadeite Palace, Yun Xiao took her sisters, Qiong Xiao and Jade Heaven, to find their master, Sect Leader Tongtian, and she said, ”Master, the number of our disciples who were killed by the Tribe of Humanity, Clan of Enlightenment, and Western Religious Sect has even amounted to hundreds. And now Shi Ji was burned to death by the Clan of Enlightenment's Immortal Tai Yi's Nine Dragon Fire Cage. Since we and Shi Ji were sisters, we'd like to leave the mountain and get revenge for her.”
Tongtian was a little bit shocked since he did not yet know that he had already lost so many disciples. Though the Tribe of Severity boasted a fame of having thousands of immortals come to worship, Tongtian only had hundreds of self-imparting and outer disciples in total. Most others were just nominal disciples, or third or fourth generation disciples.
The dead disciples that Yun Xiao mentioned were the real ones, while there were 300 to 400 nominal disciples who had also died, most of which filled the vacancy of the 2,000 Demigods in the Investiture of the Gods. That was a huge loss for the Tribe of Severity. Though the three religions also suffered a great loss, Tongtian would not care about the death of his enemy anyway.
Noticing that Tongtian was lost in thought, Yun Xiao continued to say, ”Master, now that the three religions boast a good momentum, we must hit them hard. I and my two sisters comprehend the tactical formation named the Winding Yellow River Formation, which will generate gigantic power with the combination of the Golden Cup of the Origin and bank of the Yellow River. Let's wait and see how the disciples of the three religions break it.”
Tongtian showed a bit of interest while listening to that. Among the Three Pure Ones, Laozi liked refining elixir, Honored Lord of the Origin preferred refining weapons, while he himself favored tactical formations. Thus, many of his disciples were masters of tactical formations. Tongtian was quite interested in the Winding Yellow River Formation that Yun Xiao had mentioned. Therefore, he said, ”Well, explain its details to me.”
Yun Xiao waved her hands, then a treasure appeared in her hand. It was the Primordial Spiritual Treasure, Golden Cup of the Origin, which boasted huge power. It included the three elements and rules of Heaven and Earth, while hiding Karma, Predestined Fate, and Magic Skills. The Ladies of the Three Stars comprehended the Winding Yellow River Formation through the enlightenment of this treasure. Yun Xiao threw it into the sky, then a mini-sized Winding Yellow River Formation appeared in the main hall.
Observing that, Yun Xiao began to introduce it. ”The Winding Yellow River Formation was comprehended by us three through our enlightenment of the Golden Cup of the Origin. It includes the three elements and essences of Heaven and Earth. The Perplexing Magic Elixir and Immortal-sealing Formula in it could deprive immortals' spirits, souls, figures, auras, and origins and hurt their bodies. Once entering it, an immortal will become mortal, while a mortal will die. There is no straight road in the Winding Formation. This formation presents all the greatness of Fate and singles out all the secrets of the immortals.”
