Chapter 587: The Real Purple Qi!
Behind the composite array in Xuandu City.
Li Changshou stood quietly on the city wall and looked at the endless Chaos aura. He was in a daze.
Behind him, several figures were busy.
Zhao Gongming, Perfected Huang Long, and the other experts of the two sects had arrived a few years ago. Quan Dong had brought a large number of precious materials and Spirit Stones to personally express the Heavenly Courts’ support for this matter.
Outside the city, a five-colored flower quietly bloomed and swam in the Chaos aura.
Two figures stood side by side on the flower. They were naturally the Great Daoist Master and Kong Xuan. The two of them were very close to each other. They were chatting and laughing as they set up some special array foundations.
The progress was quite smooth, but...
When he had just arrived, the Great Daoist Master had sent a voice transmission to complain that he had not slept for a long time after Kong Xuan arrived.
He felt that the Great Daoist Master was showing off.
With a thought, the flowers bloomed and he comprehended.
Li Changshou chuckled and began to think about the entire plan.
How could there be any problems? How could the arrangements not be stable?
He had already considered every step, the temperament, and abilities of every participant. He had also given his senior brothers and sisters, as well as the predecessors of the Fire Cloud Cave, ample room for “performance”.
Li Changshou had just sensed a wisp of Dao runes from the Grandmaster of Heaven. He was extremely touched.
A Saint, an existence at the peak of the Primordial World!
He could actually set up defenses in the Xuandu City ten years in advance under the suggestion of his little disciple!
What kind of spirit is that?
This was the Primordial Sacred Daoism of the Saint who selflessly cared for his disciple!
He was indeed 98% confident this time.
If Kun Peng could escape from such a trap... he could not spout nonsense. He could not assume.
Even if he had made such preparations this time, he would not be too quick to judge.
He would do his best!
Buzz ~
Suddenly, he felt a familiar voice in his heart.
Although his perception of the South Ocean was slightly weak, his connection with the paper effigy had not been severed.
When the paper effigy emerged from the ground, a Blood Mosquito landed on his shoulder. It muttered softly and quickly turned into a wisp of blood fog and dissipated.
Li Changshou squinted and looked a little cold.
Maitreya had indeed attacked.
He would take note of this matter for now and settle it later. The most important thing now was to quickly make arrangements in Xuandu City while everyone was not paying attention to it.
Li Changshou did not expect that he could leave Kun Peng behind with the array.
The main purpose of the array formation was to stabilize the chaotic situation in Xuandu City the moment the group of experts attacked.
It would be best if he could stop Kun Peng for a few seconds.
“Changgeng, how do we set up the array formation here?”
Zhao Gongming shouted. Li Changshou jumped down from the city wall, rolled up the sleeves of his robe, and lifted the hem of his Daoist robe. He focused on the construction of the array formation in the Xuandu City.
Li Changshou could not determine the exact situation in the Chaos Sea. He did not dare to investigate rashly, for fear of alerting the enemy.
The cunning Kun Peng was famous in the Primordial World. Li Changshou did not dare to be careless.
Violet QiYes, I’ll go and deal with the black leopard later. I’ll see if the black leopard can say that the Heavenly Courts will always lose and Taibai will definitely lose.
It was indirectly fatal.
...
There were seven years left until the battle in Xuandu City.
The rumors revolving around the Fire Cloud Cave and the Primordial Violet Qi in the Primordial World intensified.
Some organizations with ulterior motives sent out news that this was all a scheme of the Heavenly Courts. In front of this trend, they were completely destroyed.
Of course, that faction was actually the Western Sect.
The Western Sect spread the news on the surface and denied the authenticity of the ninth wisp of Primordial Violet Qi. They also secretly sent experts to the vicinity of the Fire Cloud Cave.
When this matter was dug out, it added fuel to the fire of the rumors.
Just as Li Changshou had said, because the Western Sect had overdrawn their credibility and reputation, their positive schemes would instead help.
There were also the two major factions of the Immortal Alliance and the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom in the trichiliocosm who had stopped fighting. A large number of experts rushed to the five continents.
In the Primordial World, the conflict between the Qi Refinement cultivators kept rising. There was frequent taunting.
Of course, there were more conflicts...
“Wait for me. I’ll call my friends now.”
“Am I afraid of you? I have many friends!”
Not long after, the two groups of people met. Both parties looked at each other. When they met someone familiar, they immediately went up.
“Grandmaster has a spirit. Isn’t this Brother Ox, whom I met when I was picking herbs in the North Continent?”
“Hey, isn’t this that person? Stop fighting, it’s an acquaintance!”
Hence, they discussed the Dao happily.
In the same year, the Heavenly Courts, which had been hiding and had not responded to the matter, suddenly increased their troops in the Fire Cloud Cave.
However, the hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals did not dare to approach the Fire Cloud Cave without sufficient experts to protect them. They only stood in the sky as punishment.
In the Fire Cloud Cave, the troops of Emperor Xuanyuan were all out and guarding the entrance of the Fire Cloud Cave.
Most of the Golden Immortals in this group had heroic spirits. They were the ancient human souls. Their combat strength was very astonishing, and the itinerant cultivators did not dare to approach them.
In that year, Zhen Yuanzi and more than ten legitimate mighty figures of the Primordial World visited the Fire Cloud Cave together and took the initiative to spread the news that causing trouble in the Fire Cloud Cave was equivalent to becoming enemies with more than ten old Daoists who were idling around.
The Fire Cloud Cave faction had officially ascended to the Primordial World. However, that faction had long retired and did not have much influence on the Primordial World.
It was just a small backer of the human race.
Six years left.
After the second stage of the array formation in the Xuandu City was completed, the experts of the Dao Sect retreated quietly. Li Changshou’s main body used the transformation technique and hid in a corner of the Xuandu City with the Jade Emperor’s incarnation, Quan Dong.
He himself was the trump card of this plan.
As for the Jade Emperor’s incarnation... it was naturally a backup. The trump card was definitely not a passerby!
Although he did not do much.
The various phenomena in the world were fake. All the arrangements would point to that place.
When Zhao Gongming, Perfected Huang Long, and the other experts who were setting up array formations in the Xuandu City went to the Fire Cloud Cave to show their faces, Li Changshou controlled the paper effigies who were guarding the Heavenly Courts to send out two jade talismans and organize two voice transmissions to activate the follow-up plan!
Firstly, in the Heavenly Courts’ Lingxiao Treasure Hall, General Dongmu, the head of the Heavenly Courts’ officials, had reported to the Jade Emperor about the rumors regarding the Primordial Violet Qi.
In front of the immortals and gods, the Jade Emperor sensed the Heavenly Dao and deduced for a while. He said that he did not discover any abnormalities in the Heavenly Dao. The ninth wisp of purple gas had yet to appear.
Following that, General Dongmu, the head of the officials of the Heavenly Courts, requested the Jade Emperor to request the Heavenly Dao to bestow the ninth wisp of Primordial Violet Qi to the leader of the Heavenly Courts, Lord Taibai Xing.
The Jade Emperor smiled and did not say anything. He did not agree to it and only said a sentence.
“That is something that I cannot decide.”
Those were naturally part of the scripts. This story was also spread from rumors.
However, the Heavenly Courts denied it at that moment. It did not have any effect of cooling down. Instead, it allowed the Qi Refinement cultivators to fully express their “reverse psychology” and feel that the Heavenly Courts were deliberately spreading rumors.
The truth was often the opposite of what the Heavenly Courts had announced.
In the Primordial World, everyone was a “smart and elegant ruffian”. In the end, it was because of the wishful thinking that a pie would fall from the sky and into his hands.
Li Changshou only smiled at that and steadily advanced his various plans.
There were five years to go.
Human Emperor Fuxi’s “slip of the tongue after drinking” made the Xuandu City the center of attention.
“I have deduced for a long time. Through the layers of concealment of the Great Tribulation, I saw the wisp of Primordial Violet Qi.”
“The ninth wisp of Primordial Violet Qi might take advantage of the Great Tribulation’s counterattack against the Heavenly Dao within ten years to escape from the Heavenly Dao.”
“This wisp of Primordial Violet Qi is a variable. The Heavenly Dao does not allow it to exist. It would drive it out of the Primordial World and dissipate in the Chaos Sea the moment it appears.”
That is the principle of the 50th Great Dao and the 49th Heavenly Evolution.
In an instant, many Qi Refinement cultivators who felt that they had no hope in the Fire Cloud Cave shouted and headed towards the Xuandu City. However, before they could approach the entrance of Xuandu City, they were blocked by the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder.
The Xuandu City was an important place in the outer world. Demons often caused trouble and could not be approached.
At that moment, a large number of otherworldly demons gathered in the outer realm. Great Daoist Master Xuan Du followed Li Changshou’s suggestion and started a long live broadcast using the copper mirror.
He revealed how he usually fought with the otherworldly demons to protect the safety of the Primordial World to the Qi Refinement cultivators who were rushing to the Xuandu City to observe.
Sometimes, credit had to be shown like that.
At that moment, word about the Great Daoist Master’s bravery spread throughout the Primordial World.
The live broadcast lasted for months until the Qi Refinement cultivators retreated...
The Great Daoist Master had directly shown them the true strength of a quasi-saint. The endless number of otherworldly demons made ordinary Zenith Heaven Immortals stop in their tracks and not dare to approach them easily.
Li Changshou secretly controlled the situation in the Primordial World. He kept adjusting the details and spreading various news.
He had carefully considered the time when he had set up the plan ten years in advance.
Li Changshou carefully grasped the timing of every rumor.
He did not choose to suppress the ordinary Qi Refinement cultivators’ interest in the Primordial Violet Qi from the beginning.
Although there was no story of “defying the heavens and changing fate” in the Primordial World, and there had never been a group of old monsters fighting for a certain heaven-defying opportunity, and the opportunity ended up in the hands of a certain small shrimp, the Qi Refinement cultivators had a “what if” in their hearts.
What if destiny arrived?
The past decade was for the Qi Refinement cultivators to calm down.
It made them realize that the risks they had to take were not comparable to the benefits they could obtain.
It made them realize that even if they really obtained that wisp of Primordial Violet Qi, they would end up like Ancestor Hong Yun in the blink of an eye. Moreover, they would be even more miserable than Ancestor Hong Yun. They might not even be able to reincarnate.
Most of the Qi Refinement cultivators began to leave the Fire Cloud Cave.
There were four years to go.
The situation was stabilized. There was only a group of Golden Immortal realm experts and old Zenith Heaven monsters left near the Fire Cloud Cave.
Someone had secretly set up various array formations. After careful calculation, there were thousands of them, completely locking the periphery of the Fire Cloud Cave.
In the hidden conflict, one or more factions appeared in various directions of the Fire Cloud Cave. They were treated as the ones with the highest chance of obtaining the Primordial Violet Qi.
At the same time, they did not give up on the Xuandu City.
An expert escaped into the Chaos Sea from another direction and circled around the world. He arrived outside the Xuandu City to observe.
They naturally could not see the changes in Xuandu City. The otherworldly demons kept attacking the array formation in the Xuandu City. The Great Daoist Master and Kong Xuan stood outside the battle in the Xuandu City. Their exceptional charm left a deep impression on everyone.
There were three years to go.
Kun Peng was anxious.
Li Changshou could clearly sense that Kun Peng was starting to panic.
The meaningless charge of the otherworldly demons was stopped. However, countless otherworldly demons were set up outside Xuandu City. They were vast and boundless, causing the Chaos aura in the area to turn black.
Black clouds loomed over the city.
That fellow wanted to rush to the Fire Cloud Cave to ambush, but he could not appear in the Primordial World. He placed all the bets on the opening of the Xuandu City.
However, Kun Peng knew that his chances were extremely slim.
Even if the Primordial Violet Qi successfully escaped from the Primordial World, it would be harder for him to snatch it from the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du.
Well, unless the Great Daoist Master was not interested in fulfilling the wishes of the Half-Saint.
However, Kun Peng was also an old and ruthless character in the Primordial World. With the principle of not giving up, he continued to guard in the Chaos Sea outside Xuandu City.
The opportunity was left for the prepared fish. That was Kun Peng’s creed and also...
Li Changshou had come to a conclusion after thinking about the history of Kun Peng.
“Kun Peng is afraid of death and greedy, but as long as there is a one in ten thousand chance, he will not give up.”
“What is contradictory is that he is a madman who dares to take risks and gamble his life at the crucial moment.”
Sometimes, Li Changshou could not help but think that if he was born in the ancient times and was a strategist of the human race, the battle with Kun Peng would probably be the hardest and most difficult battle.
Counting down, the last eighteen months!
Li Changshou’s various arrangements had been completed. The ordinary Qi Refinement cultivators of the Primordial World no longer had the enthusiasm to participate. The topic of the Primordial Violet Qi began to fade.
On the other hand, the Western Sect began to set up layers of arrangements and occupied half of the territory near the Fire Cloud Cave.
The experts of the Dao Sect were also excited. Nine of the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School had appeared. Half of the eight disciples of Jie School had visited the Fire Cloud Cave.
A mighty figure asked the ancestors of the human race in the Fire Cloud Cave about how to deal with the ninth wisp of Primordial Violet Qi.
The ancestors only had one answer.
“It’s decided by the heavens.”
That was quite intriguing.
It was the last six months.
The experts around the Fire Cloud Cave were very patient. However, there were not many phenomena around the Fire Cloud Cave.
The Heavenly Courts refuted the rumors again. They said that they did not monitor any fluctuations in the Heavenly Dao and had planted enough foreshadowing after capturing Kun Peng.
Li Changshou would naturally not aim for just one target.
At the same time, he could also achieve a few minor goals. That was a perfect plan.
As time passed, Li Changshou began to feel nervous.
The power of his mind was fully activated. His main body hid in Xuandu City. His incarnation hid in the Heavenly Courts’ Great White Palace and secretly observed the movements of the Primordial World.
There was no need to care about how lively the Fire Cloud Cave was. At that moment, there were no less than twenty Primordial mighty figures moving around near Xuandu City.
That was something he could “passively” sense.
There were not many ancient and ferocious people hiding in the Chaos Sea. It was not that they had let go of such an opportunity. There was really no source of information.
As long as Kun Peng did not look for them, they would only be lonely living beings in the Chaos Sea.
Clearly, Kun Peng did not want to have more potential competitors.
Those terrifying eyes stared at Xuandu City.
Li Changshou looked back at the huge scheme that he had plotted for twenty years and felt a little emotional.
However, he also knew that it was far from the time to celebrate. He had only created the fishing rod, hook, and fishing line...
Later, half of the experts from the Dao Sect that he had arranged to meet would rush to the Xuandu City in advance, while the other half would lie in ambush in the Chaos Sea. Senior Brother Duobao’s Void Cave was about to unleash the effects of the explosion.
The Grandmaster of Heaven had long hidden in the Chaos Sea.
The Heavenly Courts’ role in this matter was very obvious. They had been persuading everyone that it was not true.
Besides him and the Jade Emperor’s incarnation, the members of the Heavenly Courts did not participate in this matter. Of course, they could not participate.
Teacher had already tacitly agreed to his operation. He had also given Li Changshou the Floating Flame Flag to increase his defensive abilities.
The toxic black leopard was already in place.
He did not insert any flags.
Yun Xiao, Qiong Xiao, and a few experts of Jie School moved together. They were in charge of attacking from the side and were relatively less risky.
Everything was progressing towards that day.
Half a month passed. The experts of the Dao Sect landed.
Counting down...
A moment later!
...
“Changgeng, why are you sweating?”
In the quiet Xuandu City, in a corner, two mischievous stones were communicating with each other weakly.
“Is it that obvious?”
Li Changshou smiled bitterly and replied, “This is dew.”
“Don’t be nervous.” Quan Dong smiled and said, “It’s not a big deal if you fail. At the very least, you have tried your best to get rid of such a calamity for the world. Counting the time, the Fire Cloud Cave should have begun.”
“Yes, it will start at this hour. However, there should still be a while.”
“Don’t be too nervous. Let’s talk about how to promote General Youqin. If she’s a talent, we have to put her in an important position. We can’t use her to avoid relatives, right?”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
He felt that it was a rational but wrong choice to bring His Majesty to be an inspector.
The tense atmosphere that he had painstakingly created dissipated by two sentences!
Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, “There are a few difficulties. I’ll sort them out. Your Majesty, help me see if there are any mistakes.”
“Alright! Speak!”
He muttered under his breath.
Quan Dong’s stone was silent for a while. Then, he asked a crucial question.
“How can I move the wisp of Primordial Violet Qi from the Fire Cloud Cave to the vicinity of the Xuandu City? Putting aside the fact that there are now many experts in the Fire Cloud Cave, just the distance from the five continents to the Xuandu City is too far. If we want to cross the Primordial Violet Qi in a short period of time, we can only use the Cosmic Teleportation Array. Even the Golden Roc cannot achieve such speed. However, as long as we use the array formation, we will not be seen through at a glance. How can we ensure that there are no mighty figures in the world who can act as spies?”
“Your Majesty, your question is very accurate,” Li Changshou said seriously. “It’s actually very simple...”
At the same time!
The Fire Cloud Cave of the five continents!
Thunder suddenly rumbled in the originally clear world. Purple-red divine lightning fell from the sky. Rich Heavenly Dao power came from the Fire Cloud Cave.
The lightning came from the Heaven Punishment Hall.
The power of the Heavenly Dao came from the array formation that suppressed Suiren Clan at the bottom of the Fire Cloud Cave.
However, inside and outside the Fire Cloud Cave, the numerous pairs of eyes could not distinguish the source of the Heavenly Lightning and the power of the Heavenly Dao. Everything was very similar to the abnormality of the Heavenly Dao!
The world suddenly darkened, and dozens of huge stars appeared in the sky.
The power of the Great Tribulation against the Heavenly Dao!
It had come true. All the wonders that Emperor Fuxi had predicted had come true!
Outside the Fire Cloud Cave, boundless rays of light surged out from the lake, illuminating the world. A thousand-feet-wide vortex appeared on the surface of the lake.
The universe trembled and the Dao laws intertwined!
Figures rushed out of the entrance of the Fire Cloud Cave. Seven out of the Three Emperors and Five Kings had been alarmed!
The experts from various sects moved when they heard the news. Countless figures pounced towards the place where the Great Swamp was abnormal.
However, everyone was slower...
A golden beam of light suddenly flew out of the swamp. When the golden beam of light appeared, the world seemed to freeze. The mighty figures focused their gazes and could barely see that it was a blurry golden ball of light.
Inside the ball of light, a wisp of purple gas was intertwined and coiled. It emitted boundless profundity and contained the rhythm of the Great Dao.
It was as if a key could open the treasure of the world.
It was like a door. After pushing it open, it would be a bright path!
“Primordial Violet Qi!”
“Come out!”
Crack!
An expert had only shouted halfway when the ball of light that was about to rush out of the vortex suddenly exploded, causing the eminences to be stunned.
The Primordial Violet Qi... shattered just like that?
Is the Heavenly Dao really not tolerating it, or is heaven and earth not allowing it?
Violet QiThis...
“Why is there no remnant?”
“Look southeast! Southeast!”
A divine powerhouse shouted anxiously. Many gazes looked towards the southeast and saw a faint purple light under the endless dark clouds.
“The Primordial Violet Qi has escaped!”
“The direction of the Xuandu City is indeed in the direction of the Xuandu City! We have guarded the wrong place. How can the Heavenly Dao allow us to intercept the Primordial Violet Qi in the world? There is only a chance of survival in the outer world!”
An old Daoist priest stomped his feet and shouted in pain.
However, compared to such shouts, there were more experts who were in action. Streams of light almost tore the universe apart, and waves of pressure shocked the living beings of the world. They chased after him in a mighty manner.
Unfortunately, they were destined to miss...
In a corner of Xuandu City.
Li Changshou smiled and finished the second half of his sentence. “We prepared two fake Primordial Violet Qi. One exploded and led the purple stream of light towards the Xuandu City. One was released by the Golden Roc at the designated location. Your Majesty, please take a look. Have the otherworldly demons moved again? Clearly, they have completed the crucial steps and Kun Peng received the news in time. He feels that hope is here.”
Quan Dong’s eyes lit up. He could not help but laugh loudly. He said, “The Heavenly Dao has sensed that Kun Peng is rapidly approaching the Primordial World! It’s coming ferociously! Hahahaha!”
“It’s indeed here. Your Majesty, please take a look.”
Li Changshou projected a blurry image into Quan Dong’s heart.
Beside a Major Chiliocosm, a crack appeared in the void. A ball of light mixed with purple in gold seeped out and circled around before flying towards the Xuandu City.
The Golden Roc, who had secretly finished doing that, followed from afar and chased after him.
There was no obstruction on this path. It was only a few hundred thousand kilometers away from Xuandu City.
Several figures immediately flew out of the Chiliocosm beside him. They were Zhao Gongming, the Goddess of Golden Spirit, and Goddess Wudang.
Zhao Gongming shouted, “Master, you’re right. It’s indeed here. Chase!”
The three experts quickly chased after him and openly protected the Primordial Violet Qi in case they were intercepted halfway and the big fish escaped.
This plan was almost perfect.
There were too many details and arrangements. Every step was carefully considered. Every participant’s ability and personality were calculated in detail.
Li Changshou had put in a lot of effort. In order to deceive Kun Peng, he did not hesitate to alarm more than half of the Primordial World.
Although there were no perfect schemes in the world and the Heavenly Dao could not reach true perfection, if Kun Peng did not have any heaven-defying methods, it would definitely not be able to turn the tables!
However, there was one thing that Li Changshou had considered every time he took the initiative to plot against him. However, he could not take any measures.
There was no other possibility.
This time, Li Changshou’s constant worry turned into reality...
When the Golden Roc released the fake Primordial Violet Qi, Zhao Gongming, and the others chased after it, in the quiet void at the same distance as the Xuandu City,
Layers of ripples appeared in the universe. A golden ball of light that was the same as the fake Primordial Violet Qi overflowed from the ripples.
It turned into a stream of light and rushed to the entrance of Xuandu City at a speed that was slightly faster than the fake Primordial Violet Qi.
There was no need to protect it along the way. It could avoid the detection of everything in the world and avoid all dangers...
The moment it appeared...
In the secret place of the spiritual mountain, the two old Daoists suddenly opened their eyes. They frowned and pinched their fingers to deduce. Their bodies dissipated at the same time.
At the Nine Heavens Grand Pure One Temple, the thin old Daoist priest suddenly woke up from the Realm of the Void. He frowned and looked in the direction of Xuandu City. After some thought, his body turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
The small courtyard of the Three Pure Ones at Kunlun Mountain was empty.
In Nuwa’s Dao Palace, the Goddess at the side of the pool swayed her elegant snake tail. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly. She continued to flip through the little book in her hand and sighed sadly.
In the Chaos Sea, a certain big shot was stunned in the direction of Xuandu City after leaving the Heavenly Dao.
“Ha, ha... Ah...”
Why hasn’t Little Changgeng started yet? My Immortal Vanquishing Sword Array is already eager.
It is more comfortable to take baths and watch shows as a Saint.
