Chapter 986: Nuwa Visits and Learns Something About the Way of Heaven
"You really don't know what happened to Uncle Cao Guo and Yang Jian in Hezhou, Xiniu?" Nuwa had flown to Ao Changsheng's cave at some point.
Ao Changsheng was indifferent: "There is a destiny somewhere."
Nuwa frowned: "It seems that Daozu, you really don't take the way of heaven seriously!"
She originally came here to explore Ao Changsheng's words, but she didn't expect that Ao Changsheng was so tight-lipped and refused to reveal any secrets about the way of heaven.
"The way of heaven? I have never believed in the way of heaven. In my eyes, the way of heaven is nothing." Ao Changsheng smiled lightly, as if he didn't care about anything in the world.
"In that case, you'd better quickly put the chess piece in your hand into the way of heaven!"
"I don't want to do anything against God's will now." Ao Changsheng remained calm: "You should just stay out of this matter."
After hearing Ao Changsheng's words, her face immediately turned ugly. She didn't expect that Ao Changsheng would refuse such a good opportunity.
Nuwa was about to say something when she suddenly heard a sound.
Suddenly his expression changed drastically, and he turned around quickly, only to see a person walking in from outside the cave.
The person who came was a man wearing a black robe. His face was cold and his eyes were shining with coldness.
Seeing the man in black, Nuwa saluted quickly: "I have seen Master Taiyi!"
This man is none other than Taiyi Zhenren of Heaven, and one of the right-hand men of Heaven.
Ao Changsheng also bowed slightly when he saw the visitor, but his expression was calm, as if he had already guessed the arrival of Master Taiyi.
"It seems that my place is quite lively today." Master Taiyi walked up to Ao Changsheng and said, "What? Brother Ao Changsheng, are you still hesitating?"
"I said I won't devote myself to the way of heaven, and I hope my fellow Taoists won't force it!" Ao Changsheng said indifferently.
"Haha!" Master Taiyi snorted coldly: "It seems that Brother Dao still doesn't trust my words, so how about we make a bet?"
Hearing this, Ao Changsheng was silent for a moment: "I don't think I can win you!"
"That's not necessarily true. Don't forget that I am the most powerful existence under heaven." Master Taiyi was full of arrogance.
"Okay, but before that, I would like to remind fellow Taoists that the way of heaven does not allow anyone to disobey the way of heaven, and those who disobey the way of heaven will disappear in the three realms forever!"
Master Taiyi's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and then returned to normal: "I know what you want to say, but I can't break the rules of heaven."
"It's good that you know, but you should also know that no one dares to disobey the orders of Heaven. You know the consequences of disobeying the orders of Heaven, right?" Ao Changsheng said coldly.
Master Taiyi's expression changed slightly, but he still stiffened his neck: "So what? Heaven will not punish me for just a small disobedience to Heaven. Don't overestimate yourself!"
"Then give it a try!"
"Okay! I'll take my leave now!" Seeing Ao Changsheng being so disrespectful, Master Taiyi became furious.
Ao Changsheng looked at Master Taiyi calmly: "Wait a minute, this matter is not over yet!"
"What? It's not over yet? What else do you want? Don't forget that this is my territory. So what if you are Tianzun, can you still conquer the world?" Master Taiyi sneered.
"I can't guarantee this, but one thing you may not know is that I am the least afraid of trouble. If you are stubborn, I can only use one method to deal with you!" Ao Changsheng's eyes showed a cold light.
Master Taiyi's face changed suddenly when he heard this: "Ao Changsheng, what do you want to do? This is heaven, and this is not a place where you can run wild!"
Ao Changsheng smiled and said: "Then let's wait and see. I hope I can see a good show."
Master Taiyi was so angry that Ao Changsheng was shaking all over, but there was nothing he could do. After all, this was his territory. If he didn't follow Ao Changsheng's instructions, he might not be able to eat and walk around!
Master Taiyi had no choice but to leave Ao Changsheng's cave angrily, giving Ao Changsheng a fierce look when he left.
Ao Changsheng looked at the departing Master Taiyi and snorted coldly: "You don't know how to praise someone!"
After speaking, Ao Changsheng turned around and continued practicing.
In heaven.
After Taiyi Zhenren returned, he began to gather people to discuss a plan to deal with Ao Changsheng.
"Tianzun, what should we do now?"
"What should we do? Of course we have to stand still. Otherwise, I'm afraid His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven will blame us and we won't be able to bear the consequences."
"But doesn't this mean that Ao Changsheng will be advantaged?"
"No matter what, we can't let Ao Changsheng continue to be arrogant, otherwise he may become more and more arrogant. I think there still needs to be someone from heaven to suppress him." Taiyi Zhenren said.
"The Heavenly Lord is wise!"
"Humph, Ao Changsheng is just a dog of the Emperor of Heaven. As long as he dares to take action against my disciples in Heaven, His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven will definitely punish him!" Master Taiyi said.
"Haha, Tianzun is wise!" Everyone heard the words and agreed.
Upon hearing this, Master Taiyi showed a proud smile on his face, and then waved his hand to let everyone disperse.
After everyone dispersed, the smile on Master Taiyi's face instantly froze, replaced by a trace of worry. He was worried about whether his actions just now were too reckless.
Although he is the top Daluo Jinxian under the heaven, he also knows that his strength is only comparable to the Emperor of Heaven. If Ao Changsheng really wants to take action against him, I am afraid that he will not be his opponent.
But Taiyi Zhenren was unwilling to retreat like this.
When Taiyi Zhenren thought of this, his eyes showed a firm look, and he secretly said: "If I don't retreat, the Heavenly Court will definitely not sit idly by."
"Ao Changsheng, I'll see how rampant you are."
"Hmph! Heavenly Court, humph, you are just bluffing." Taiyi Zhenren thought secretly in his heart.
He Xiangu and Lu Dongbin learned the truth about the cave ruins from Tieguai Li and decided to go to Penglai Island to retrieve the lost artifact that sealed the cave.
After all, in the three realms of the prehistoric world, it is conceivable how attractive a relic-level artifact is to those who are determined to prove the truth. Moreover, there is a relic in this cave that can be cultivated to the Daluo Jinxian. How can they bear to give it up?
So the two hit it off and decided to set off immediately and rush to Penglai Island to find the object that sealed the cave.
"Xiangu, Brother Dongbin, do you know how far Penglai Island is from here?" He Xiangu looked at the two and asked.
Lü Dongbin shook his head: "I have been leading you all this way, so I don't know the exact direction."
He Xiangu nodded: "In that case, let's just fly over there! The location of Penglai Island is quite close to here. If nothing goes wrong, we should be able to reach it in a few days."
