Chapter 139 The Lessons of the Great Daoist Master

“Hahahaha... That works too? The village of the Magihumans forcibly established you as the Sea God? The Magihumans even relied on the power of their bloodline to become as strong as bulls, and become Divine Envoys to accumulate wealth... In the end, the dragon race joined in too? Amazing, the things in this world are truly wonderful!”

In the valley, beside the stream, Xuan Du was holding onto a grilled fish and laughing.

Li Changshou tried his best to maintain his smile while standing at the side. He took out two pieces of grilled fish that he had originally planned to give to the elders in the sect and continued roasting them.

The first element required for cozying up to someone was sincerity.

Then, he would sincerely... do what the other party liked and wanted.

Xuan Du laughed for a while before asking, “How’s the rest? Continue telling me. I won’t listen to your story for nothing. Later, you can choose a mystical ability of the sect. If I know it, you can learn it. I will teach it to you.”

Li Changshou was not too happy when he heard that. He sighed softly and mentioned how he dealt with the South Ocean Sea God Sect.

He also answered the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du and told him why he was related to the dragon race.

When Xuan Du heard that Li Changshou had no expert backing him up and had deliberately tried to confuse the dragon race to let them think about it... the Great Daoist Master could not help but laugh. He even complimented Li Changshou’s “intelligent plan” and praised him.

“You sure are clever. No wonder Teacher would help you conceal the heavenly secret!”

Li Changshou’s expression changed when he heard that.

Has the Saint really... remembered me?

Li Changshou immediately figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

The Dragon race’s entry into the Heavenly Courts should be a key step in strengthening the Heavenly Court’s prestige and power.

It was obvious that the Saint wanted to support the Heavenly Courts. Even the good corpses had turned into Grand Supreme Elders and stood on behalf of the Jade Emperor.

When the Grand Pure One discovered that the dragon race’s entry to Heaven could be expedited through the South Ocean Sea God Sect, he decided to take action to cover up for him, preventing the dragon race and Western Sect from investigating and finding out about it...

That made sense.

Li Changshou had a thought in his mind. He felt that the time that the Saint had helped him conceal the heavenly secret, was most likely the time that he had met the Jade Emperor...

However, he could not come to a conclusion. He did not dare to guess the thoughts of the Saint.

He did not burn those incense for nothing!

“Changshou,” said Xuan Du with a smile. “Teacher has given me a mission now. He wants us to bring the dragon race to the Heavenly Courts. What do you think?”

Li Changshou said seriously, “I will listen to your arrangements, Great Daoist Master.”

“I heard from you just now that the elder has something he needs. I’ll do my best.”

Xuan Du squinted and smiled. “Since you’ve already taken action, let’s continue. However, the dragon race had always been arrogant and looked down on the Heavenly Courts. When the Demon Emperor established the Demon Court and the demons were at their prime, they could only make the dragons their ‘guests’. Although the dragon race lacks merit and opportunities, and their power is gradually weakening now, I’m afraid it will be difficult to destroy their pride if there are no calamities.”

The meaning behind his words was that he wanted Li Changshou to think of ways to train the dragon race.

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

As a disciple of the Immortal Du Sect, his shoulders were too weak to shoulder such a huge responsibility!

The Great Daoist Master did not even blink when he ordered his juniors around.

“Great Daoist Master...”

Li Changshou looked troubled and said, “I used the power of the dragon race to protect the Sea God Sect in the South Ocean. That has already made me feel uneasy. Now, if you make me plot against the dragon race again...”

“Wait for a while. Let me deduce.”

Xuan Du pinched his fingers to calculate. It was rare for him to stop smiling and reveal a serious expression.

“This matter is not that simple. Now, the two Saints of the Western Sect are about to take the dragon race under their wing. They have already started to attack. It seems that they are secretly pressuring the dragon race to submit... Tsk, it’s been so many years, but they’re still resorting to the same trick.”

Li Changshou said softly, “Great Daoist Master, is it inappropriate for us to discuss this matter like this?”

“Don’t worry,” Xuan Du said. “You can say whatever you want when you’re 100 feet away from me.”

Li Changshou praised him in his heart.

Xuan Du was already seated with a grilled fish in hand. He picked out the fish and placed it into his mouth while thinking about how to make arrangements for the matter.

However, Li Changshou had already started to think about which mystical ability he could ask for later.

It would be best if he could learn an escape technique or a technique that could hide his Qi. Or perhaps, like the Great Daoist Master, he could make it impossible for others to use their immortal senses to investigate...

Huh? Li Changshou suddenly reacted and hurriedly asked, “Great Daoist Master, are you referring to the two old masters from the west who have already attacked the dragon race?”

Xuan Du said, “That’s right. The heavenly secrets have been revealed. There are some disasters that struck the dragon race today, but I’m not worried for now.”

Li Changshou could not help but laugh and shake his head.

Xuan Du felt that his little disciple was really interesting. Not only was he interesting, but his temper was interesting as well. There seemed to be many interesting things about him.

Xuan Du asked, “Is there anything else?”

“I sensed that the South Ocean Sea God Sect is in danger...”

Li Changshou then told the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du about the battle that happened in the Southwest part of the South Continent.

“It turns out that the lie I told to the dragon race has exposed the truth. It’s no wonder the dragon race is so confident.”

“Hahahaha...”

Xuan Du laughed again. The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du seemed to be optimistic in Li Changshou’s opinion...

He was joyous.

Soon, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du patted Li Changshou’s shoulder and said, “Well done! I have already understood what Teacher meant. You will be in charge of the matter regarding the dragon race entering Heaven. If you encounter any trouble that you cannot resolve, you will stay in the Immortal Du Sect... That’s not right, you’re here. How could you have planned so many things?”

“I have a shallow technique called the Man-Forming Paper Cutouts.”

Li Changshou did not dare to hide anything. He immediately took out a paper effigy from his sleeve. “I modified him and turned him into an incarnation technique.”

Xuan Du stared at the paper effigy and Li Changshou before shaking his head.

He had only cultivated for less than two hundred years, but his body and incarnation technique... “If it wasn’t for the fact that Teacher does not allow me to take you in as a disciple, I would really want to drag you back to the Tushita Palace. However, Changshou, there are a few things that I have to remind you about.”

Li Changshou’s expression immediately turned serious. He sat on the rock and listened carefully.

Xuan Du’s eyes were filled with memories as he slowly spoke. “The Primordial World is not as peaceful as it seems to you.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

He thought that the big shot was going to say something. He naturally understood that fact.

Li Changshou put on a serious expression and cooperated with the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du.

Xuan Du said, “I have yet to be born during the ancient times. Let’s not talk about it for now. In the ancient times, there had been many geniuses and mighty figures who had amazed the world. In the end, they all turned into ashes.

In the Primordial World, the most common thing is scheming against others...”

Li Changshou thought, Why does this sound so familiar?

“Do you know why Teacher taught me not to get involved in karma?”

Xuan Du sighed and said, “It’s because karma can’t be severed. Perhaps, you might think that it’s a small matter, but you might attract a fatal calamity after a long time. Looking at everything that happened ever since the ancient times, I can give you the best words of truth. That is... there are too many dangers in the Primordial World.”

Li Changshou nodded solemnly. At that moment, he felt touched. He had finally found the organization’s gratitude!

Xuan Du continued, “Look at the Demon Master Kun Peng, who had spread his wings and soared beyond the Nine Heavens. In the end, he was crippled and had to flee the chaotic sea. Look at the two Demon Emperors, who were high-spirited and stood at the peak of Mount Buzhou. In the end, they died and were left with nothing. Then there is the Battle Magi, the ten Great Demon Saints, the Blood Sea Asura, and the mighty figures with mystical abilities that were whizzing through the world... There are countless of them. Changshou, there is no winner in this world. Only the living and the dead.”

Li Changshou nodded in agreement and said, “Great Daoist Master, why don’t you teach me this principle?”

“This is just a warning. Who can really not be affected by karma?”

Xuan Du smiled and said, “I’m just trying to remind you.

Golden Immortals who enjoy longevity are nothing. So what if some are in the Zenith Heaven realm? Don’t be complacent just because you have ascended. It’s only right for you to focus on cultivation.”

Li Changshou stood up and bowed. He felt that the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was personable and affectionate.

Li Changshou really wanted to have a chat with Xuan Du because he suddenly felt like the hard work that he had done for hundreds of years had finally been recognized.

However, he could not.

He had to stay alert all the time.

Even though he felt grateful towards the Great Mage who was very concerned about him, he could not rely on him or trust him completely.

It was impossible for the Great Daoist Master to keep staring at him.

Moreover, if someone were to attack him, the Great Daoist Master would at most be able to help collect his corpse. If his body was still warm, he could stuff him a Nine Revolution Golden Pill or something...

He was thinking too much.

“Then, you can handle the matters of the dragon race as you deem fit.”

The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du patted his knees. Seeing that the fire was almost burning out, he slowly stood up.

“Let’s end the conversation here today. Which mystical ability do you want to learn? I can’t go back on my words.”

Li Changshou pondered for a while. After some thought, he said, “Escape technique.”

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was stunned for a moment. Then, he clapped his hands and laughed. He took out two jade tokens from his sleeve.

“I originally planned to give it to you on two occasions as a reward. I’ll give it all to you at once. I have an escape technique but your cultivation level is too low to cultivate it. This is a technique that allows you to transform your body. You can comprehend it and perfect the mystical abilities of your paper effigies. There is also a sutra written by Teacher. It can give you some insight into the Dao. Just remember not to show off this sutra. Just figure it out yourself.”

Li Changshou held two jade tokens and revealed a somewhat joyous expression. “Thank you, Great Daoist Master.”

“After so many years, there’s finally a disciple from one of the various factions, whom Teacher values. I will take good care of you since you are a disciple that is valued by Teacher.”

Xuan Du patted Li Changshou’s shoulder. “Do you need me to show up in the Sea God Sect when I come down this time?

There was no one behind you in the past.

Now, you do.

However, it’s best if you don’t cause trouble everywhere. I like disciples who are more stable and reliable. If you cause too much karma, I might kill you myself.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Did he just give me a harsh remark after showing me some kindness?

“Don’t worry, Great Daoist Master, I will be extra careful when I do things in the future.”

Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, “The South Ocean is where the experts of the dragon race are gathered. I want to invite you to reveal your whereabouts, Great Daoist Master.

However, since the Ancestral Master has arranged for the dragon race to enter Heaven, I feel that there’s no need to alarm the Western Sect...”

“Oh?” Xuan Du squinted slightly. “What good plan do you have? Just say it. What I dislike the most is thinking about these things.”

“Yes... I’m spouting nonsense. If there’s anything wrong with my words, please don’t blame me.”

Li Changshou whispered a few words.

Xuan Du quickly smiled and nodded. “It’s similar to what I think.”

“I racked my brains to come up with this idea. I must have received your guidance, Great Daoist Master.”

“Yes, yes, not bad. If you can speak well, say a few more words.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

The experts are indeed all so unique.

Seeing that the Great Daoist Master was about to leave, Li Changshou hesitated for a moment before saying, “Great Daoist Master, I have something to say. I wonder if I should say it...”

“Just say it.”

“I understand that you implemented the system of Dao companions for the sake of helping the human race prosper... but...”

Xuan Du smiled. “Why? Is this plan not

good?”

“It’s naturally wonderful,” Li Changshou said in a low voice. “But the problem is that they... are not going to give birth...”

Xuan Du frowned. “Why is that so? Logically speaking, when Yin and Yang intersect, there should be a spirit born.”

Li Changshou immediately understood something.

It turned out that you have been meddling with the Dao companion system for so many years, yet you...

“Could it be that they can still control that matter themselves?” asked the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du who was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

“I’m 80% sure. I don’t know much about it... This is really too complicated.”

Li Changshou could only give that reply.

In the wilderness where the dragon race had ambushed in the Southwest of the South Continent, Ao Yi stood in the dust that filled the sky at the mountainside. He sighed in his heart.

If not for the schemes that the expert behind Brother Changshou had given him, the number of casualties we would suffer would definitely increase, even though the dragon race would still win.

I really owe Brother Changshou a big favor.

After returning to Golden Ao Island, Ao Yi decided to sum up the ‘Twenty-six Steps To Make The Enemy Retreat’ into a set of battle techniques. If Brother Changshou agreed, he would offer those techniques to his father...

At that moment, a few old dragons from the dragon race walked over worriedly.

An old dragon said, “Your Highness, the enemy we discovered this time is an ancient ferocious beast, a Blood-Winged Black Mosquito. It’s very ferocious... Can we invite experts from Ren School to appear so that we can resolve this situation where we are isolated and helpless?”

Ao Yi thought for a while after hearing that. Then, he nodded slowly. “I have to discuss this with Brother Sect Master before I can decide...”

“Oh?”

Suddenly, he heard a chuckle in the air.

Ao Yi paused in his speech. The dragons looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy. They looked at the spot that was thousands of feet high in the sky.

Over there, a figure in a black robe stood with his hands behind his back. It was unclear where he had come from and when he appeared. The person looked below and said, “Don’t hurt mortals.”

With that, the figure left behind a wisp of Dao runes and disappeared in a flash.

The dragons below looked at each other.

“That is...”

“The Great Daoist Master! This Dao rune is from the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du from the Dao Sect, Ren School!”

At that moment, Daoist Wen Jing, who was paying attention to the situation, suddenly shivered and her pique dissipated...
