Primordial World: Big shots are all my friends-Chapter 863 - 787: The Sudden Appearance of the Old Taoist
Bai Jin was taken aback. How did it come back to this? He quickly said, "Empress, I have already sought to meet with my master and my martial uncle, and they have no solution either." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Marquis of Wind chuckled and said, "Emperor, the Empress’s words can never be wrong. Since the Empress said that the Three Pure Saints have a way to easily restore the Star Domain, then there must be a way."
Master of Rain also said, "The Three Pure Saints didn’t inform the Emperor, probably because they have their own reasons."
King Yanluo couldn’t help but said, "Or maybe you, the Emperor, didn’t provide enough incentives."
King Qinguang also said, "What incentives? That’s just a tea fee. Tea leaves are very expensive these days."
Empress Ping Xin smiled and said, "Bai Jin, I’ve already pointed out the path for you. I believe with your abilities, solving a mere Illusion Sea shouldn’t be difficult. Go now! I’ll be waiting for you to return at the Underworld."
"Empress~"
The group video call blanked out and was instantly disconnected.
In the Illusion Sea, Bai Jin sat cross-legged within the Blood Lotus and muttered, "Could it be that none of them can solve it?"
This sort of passing the buck is something I’m all too familiar with. It’s a necessary skill for surviving in the bureaucratic world, and I’ve encountered it many times in the Heavenly Court. But I didn’t expect even the Saints to do it really well.
Bai Jin looked up at the vast and boundless Illusion Sea, feeling a wave of despair. It’s over; if my martial uncles and seniors can’t solve it, how could I possibly do it? Is the Demon Ancestor making excuses to deal with me? Does this mean my future is completely dark?
With a heart full of anxiety and complexity, Bai Jin searched the Illusion Sea once more, feeling extremely disappointed in the end, and broke through.
...
At the edge of the Illusion Sea, thousands of Demon Venerables steadfastly held up a barrier, sealing the vast sea’s boundary, forming a solid dyke where thousands of Demon Beasts lay prostrate, as far as the eye could see, vast and sprawling.
A figure in a green robe flew out from the Illusion Sea, hovering on the boundary of the vast sea with hands clasped behind, standing arrogantly.
All the loose cultivators of the Demon Clan at the edge of the Illusion Sea hurriedly bowed and in a respectful chorus called out, "Greetings, Sect Hierarch!"
"All retreat!" Bai Jin said casually, and his profound voice echoed between Heaven and Earth.
All the loose cultivators quickly got up, hurriedly fleeing into the distance. In the Demon Realm, the skilled avoid danger and are experts at escaping.
The thousands of Demon Sect Demon Venerables also ceased their actions, respectfully standing upon descending onto the chariot.
The dyke along the shore remained intact for a long time, as though it was solid.
"You all follow me back to the Demon Sect Headquarters and are not allowed to leave without permission."
Illusion Peach Demon Venerable immediately bent over and respectfully responded, "Sect Hierarch, what shall we do with these three Demon Saints you have subdued?"
"Bring them back to Black Demon Mountain for custody, and do not unlock their chains."
"As you command!"
Illusion Peach Demon Venerable flew down from the chariot, waving a folded fan and shouted, "By decree of the Sect Hierarch, the disciples return!"
"Yes!"
All the Demon Sect disciples respectfully responded in unison, the chariot turned and swiftly flew away into the distance, disappearing in a ripple of space, with the Demon Sect members closely following.
Bai Jin landed lightly by the seaside and walked along the coast. After walking some distance, he suddenly turned and frowned, saying, "Why are you still here?"
Illusion Peach Demon Venerable blinked her peach blossom eyes and coquettishly said, "Sect Hierarch, with your revered status, how can you be left alone here? I stayed behind to serve you."
"Huh~" Bai Jin let out a long breath. After all this time, he still couldn’t get used to her way of speaking. However, having someone to run errands was good, so he said, "We might have to stay here for a long time; go build a residence."
Illusion Peach Demon Venerable replied joyfully, "Yes, I will definitely build a residence to satisfy the Sect Hierarch." Happily, she flew into the distance.
Thus, Bai Jin settled by the seashore, staying for half a year. The dyke had disappeared, and many more from the Demon Clan came to check in.
Bai Jin was determined not to leave. Whether or not the Star Domain could be restored, at least the attitude had to be in place. From now on, I’m eating here, living here; even if I can’t restore the Star Domain, the Demon Ancestor can’t blame me!
...
By the misty seaside, threads of Demonic Qi converged, Bai Jin sat on a piece of rock, murmuring to himself, "Alas~ When will this life end?"
When will the Demon Tribulation start? Bai Jin had never missed that outstanding former Senior Brother Duobao as much as now. Senior Brother Duobao, I miss you!
Suddenly, the sound of battle cries came from afar. Bai Jin had grown accustomed to such events; initially, he intended to intervene, but later, he just gave up. Whether it’s the pursuer or the pursued, none were good demons. Inside every demon clan member was a hidden madness, and slaughter was a daily occurrence here.
"Ren Gao protect me, Ding Chou guard me, Ren He guide me, Ding You preserve, Ren Can control the soul, Ding Si nourish the spirit, Taiyin Huagai, Land and Heavenly Gate, I tread Yu’s Step, Xuan Nu True Man, Mingtang Sitting and Lying, Hidden and Hidden, hurry up as a Taoist decree!!" A resounding voice was heard from afar.
Bai Jin came back to earth, his spirit suddenly lifted, and he sharply turned his head, eyes carrying excitement. It was the Taoist Divine Skill Six Ding Protection Spell. Could there be a Taoist disciple here?
A figure flashed and instantly disappeared from the rock.
In an area with jagged rocks, three demons were besieging an old Taoist.
The old Taoist held the Immortal Sword in one hand and a Thunderbolt in the other, the shadows of the Six Ding Divine Generals protecting him.
During the great battle, gravel flew around, and strange cries rang, the surrounding rocks shattering in the aftermath of the battle.
"Heh heh~ You can’t escape."
"What a delicious taste, quickly give me your heart and liver."
The three demons struck simultaneously, boom~ the shadows of the Six Ding Divine Generals shattered, and the old Taoist was knocked back, thump~ he hit a rock, and spat a mouthful of fresh blood.
A skull head, a dark devil’s hand, and a pitch-black demon pillar fiercely attacked the old Taoist.
The old Taoist showed despair.
In the next moment, a flash of green light, the skull head, dark devil’s hand, pitch-black demon pillar returned as they came.
Boom~ ah~ cack~
Amid the screams, the three demons were all thrown back, miserably crashing onto the ground, carving three trenches on the rocky shore, demon blood seeping into the land.
Bai Jin in green stood before the old Taoist, coldly shouting, "Scram~"
The three demons frantically got up and without asking a word, turned into strands of demonic qi and fled into the distance.
The old Taoist struggled to get up, clutching his chest, coughing joyfully said, "Thank you, elder, for saving my life!"
Bai Jin turned around and looked at him, feeling extremely emotional! It was a tear-jerking moment of reunion with a fellow countryman, finally seeing this familiar attire again.
"Are you a Taoist?"
"Old Taoist Yu Lou pays respect to the elder."
Bai Jin stepped forward, patting the old Taoist’s shoulder, laughing heartily, "Taoists are good, Taoists are good indeed! To be honest with you, I am also a Taoist disciple, it’s good to see you! Truly good."
The old Taoist smiled and said, "In the Demon Realm, it’s hard to find a fellow Daoist! Cough cough~" covering his mouth and coughing twice again.
Bai Jin quickly asked, "Are you alright?"
"I’m fine, just suffered some injuries, a little rest will do." Yu Lou Old Tao’s Longsword in hand turned into a Dead Wood Staff, supporting himself on the ground.
