Chapter 2269 The Art of Checks and Balances

Chen Xiaobei: Beware of Taoist ancestors? Master, are you kidding me?

Master Tongtian: Being a teacher is serious! Daozu, above the Supreme Being of the Three Realms, can be said to be the Supreme Emperor of the Three Realms! On the surface, the Taoist ancestor lived in Zixiao Palace in seclusion and didn't care about world affairs! In fact, he's been working on one thing!

Chen Xiaobei: What's the matter?

Master Tongtian: Check and balance!

Chen Xiaobei: Checks and balances? What are the checks and balances?

Master Tongtian: Taoist ancestor has been checking and balancing the power among the six heavenly saints! Daozu didn't want to see any party grow bigger, so as not to threaten his status!

Chen Xiaobei: Disciple doesn't quite understand...

Master Tongtian: Back then, I stopped teaching ten thousand immortals to come to court, and the incense was at its peak! I control the Four Swords of Zhu Xian! There are also pictures of the Zhuxian Sword Formation and the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation" to suppress luck! It can be described as an unprecedented event! But do you know why my teaching suddenly failed?

Chen Xiaobei: The cause of the decline was the destruction of the Jade Immortal Sword Formation and the seizure of the Jade Immortal Four Swords...

Master Tongtian: This is only the superficial reason! Think about it carefully, why can Yuanshi Tianzun please move, Taishang, Zhunti, and guide? Why didn't even Junior Sister Nuwa refuse to help me at a critical moment?

Chen Xiaobei: Could it be... because of Daozu? (Shock)

Master Tongtian: Yes! It was because I had too much power to stop teaching at that time! If, let me continue to develop, sooner or later I can swallow other sects, and even take other heavenly saints under my command!

Master Tongtian: Because of this, I made Daozu feel threatened! He is afraid that I will replace him one day! So, in the last immeasurable calamity, he secretly plotted against me more than once!

Chen Xiaobei: No way... Didn't Daozu always love you the most?

Master Tongtian: Daozu really dotes on me! But the premise is that I won't threaten him! Once he feels threatened, all favors will disappear completely!

Chen Xiaobei: That's what you said, but do you have any evidence to prove that Taoist ancestor plotted against you? After all, I feel that he is an old man with good character...

Master Tongtian: Evidence? Too much! Just give an example! After the Zhuxian sword formation was broken, Chanjiao Guang Chengzi took away the Zhuxian sword, Chi Jingzi took away the Killing fairy sword, Yuding real person took away the trapping fairy sword, and Daoxing Tianzun took the Juxian sword!

Master Tongtian: After that, they used Zhu Xian's four swords instead, smashed the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation" of my sect, and slaughtered many disciples of my sect! In the end, it even got to my head!

Master Tongtian: At this moment, Daozu belatedly came forward to persuade the fight! On the surface, they came to protect me, but why did they come to protect me after the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation" was broken and my disciples were massacred?

Master Tongtian: The point is! After persuading the fight, Daozu didn't let the four juniors of Chanjiao return the Four Swords of Zhuxian to me! After all, I was afraid that I would make a comeback!

Chen Xiaobei: There is such a thing! It seems that my understanding of Taoist ancestors is really superficial! (Shock)

First of all, Daozu put pressure behind his back to make all the sages of Heavenly Dao stand on the side of the original old thief and broke the Zhuxian Sword Formation!

Then, Daozu watched helplessly as the "Great Formation of Ten Thousand Immortals" was broken, and the disciples of the Jiejiao were slaughtered!

In the end, Daozu even acquiesced in explaining the teachings and taking away the Four Swords of Zhu Xian!

Even if you think about it with your toes, you can know that in this series of incidents, Daozu didn't have the slightest favor for Master Tongtian, and some were just calculating and suppressing!

Because of this, the leader of Tongtian Cult ended in a big defeat in the last calamity, and the Jiejiao also completely declined!

And all this is precisely because Daozu felt threatened!

Chen Xiaobei: Master! According to what you said, I chose Luo Hu, Di Jiang, and Tai Yi today. Will Dao Zu feel threatened? Will he come to plot against me? (nervous)

Master Tongtian: Not yet! Because, you are just a mortal, before you go to the fairy world, anything can happen! For example, if you die, the person you choose will switch to other forces!

Chen Xiaobei: That's good! I'm still worried that I will be plotted by Daozu immediately... I don't know how to die...

Master Tongtian: Don't be nervous, you are not qualified to let Daozu personally calculate! However, in order to check and balance you, Daozu will definitely not give you any convenience! Even, he will tacitly allow Yuanshi Tianzun to deal with you in a way that violates the rules of heaven!

Chen Xiaobei: This is what you said, checks and balances?

Master Tongtian: Yes! What Daozu really wanted was not to completely kill a certain party! Instead, I hope that all parties will fight each other, suppress each other, and finally achieve mutual checks and balances! Keep the balance that no one wants to be bigger!

Chen Xiaobei: I understand! Just like the original old thief made many mistakes, if Daozu pursued it seriously, it would not be too much to sentence him to death! However, Daozu didn't intend to severely punish the original old thief. After all, he wanted to let the original old thief retain his strength and check and balance other heavenly saints!

Chen Xiaobei: In the same way, even if Taoist ancestor plots against me in the future, he will not let me die! Instead, let me fight with a certain party, it is best not to lose or win! In this way, I will never be able to grow bigger and threaten Daozu!

Master Tongtian: Smart! That's the reason!

Master Tongtian: I am reminding you to beware of the Taoist ancestor, not to beware of him plotting against you! Because you are too weak to get into his eyes! However, if the original old thief does something against you that violates the rules of heaven, we will sue Daozu, but it will not work!

Chen Xiaobei: Understood! Daozu doesn't care about me, this in itself is a way to check and balance me! From now on, if I encounter unfair things again, I can only bear it by myself! Solve it with your fists! There is no way to reason anymore!

Master Tongtian: It's not rough, it's just like that!

Chen Xiaobei: Can the price of the "Book of Merit" be changed back?

Master Tongtian: Don't worry, after today, the "Book of Merit and Virtue" will no longer be in charge of those who explain the teaching! Moreover, with Shen Gongbao as a good example, I believe no one would dare to secretly change the price again!

Chen Xiaobei: That's good. From now on, I can finally exchange things normally!

Chen Xiaobei: The only thing that is a pity is that Daozu can't lift the ban on group friends sending me private red envelopes!

Master Tongtian: This ban cannot be lifted! Because Yuanshi Tianzun's reason is correct, sending red envelopes from the fairy world to the mortal world will seriously break the balance of the mortal world, causing huge damage or casualties!

Master Tongtian: If you want to receive red envelopes as you like, the only way is to ascend through the tribulation! When you come to the fairy world, that ban will be invalid for you!

Chen Xiaobei: Overcoming Tribulation and Ascension? To fairyland? Master, don't worry! I will definitely take this as my goal and continue to work hard! Try to step through the gate of heaven as soon as possible, and salute you face to face!

Master Tongtian: I am very relieved to be a teacher! With your growth momentum, it is inevitable to cross the tribulation and ascend! Moreover, I won't let me wait too long for my teacher!

Chen Xiaobei: Right! I have one more question!

Master Tongtian: Say it!

Chen Xiaobei: Master decided a long time ago that I can switch to Luohu, Dijiang, and Taiyi. I want to ask Master, how did you know that Taishang Laojun would let Dijiang go?

Master Tongtian: Do you still remember that my teacher once told you what is the biggest characteristic of the Supreme Lord?

Chen Xiaobei: Remember! Be a man and stay on the line!

Master Tongtian: That's right! As a teacher, you can win Rahu! In this way, you are most likely to shine in this immeasurable calamity!

Master Tongtian: Taishang Laojun gave you the second place, just to sell you a huge favor. In case you have the last laugh in this calamity, Taishang Laojun will be able to follow suit!

Chen Xiaobei: So, the Taishang Laojun is very optimistic about me?
