Chapter 73: Asura Manifests in the Mortal World

  All the saints understand all things in heaven, and naturally know the affairs of the vast wilderness. Chi You's actions have given the saints enough reason to take action. As the master of human teachings, Laozi must also take action, so he sends the Grand Master Xuandu with the Taiji diagram and a precious sword to assist Huangdi.

  Jie Yin Zhun Ti also couldn't help but express his concerns, however, Jie Yin was still worried that the disciples would bear too much karma, so he sent Xi Wang Mu to select some disciples from outside the mountain gate to assist Xuan Yuan Huang Di. This is the benefit of having an outer sect; all these menial and laborious tasks were handed over to them.

  The Queen Mother of the West also knew the cause and effect, but why should she be protected by others? Wasn't it just to send someone out at a critical moment? The Queen Mother was also an old hand, so she found one of her own nominal disciples, named Jiutian Xuan Nu, and had her bring the military formation method given by Zhu Ti down the mountain to help Huang Di train his troops. With the help of Jiutian Xuan Nu, the combat effectiveness of Huang Di's army was greatly improved.

  Zhao Gongming, a disciple of the Zhengyi Sect, was sent down the mountain with the Dinghai Divine Pearl to assist the Yellow Emperor. The Primordial also sent the Fu Deng Daoist down the mountain, and for a time, the entire camp of the Yellow Emperor gathered together, discussing how to deal with Chi You and the great witchcraft of the Wu tribe.

  Chi You also understood this, and unexpectedly brought out all the witches from the six reincarnations, ready to make a desperate attempt. Ping Xin watched these witches go to their deaths in the six reincarnations, feeling sad in his heart. However, Ping Xin knew that Chi You had committed atrocities against humanity, and someone had to take responsibility for it. These witches were doomed to die, otherwise it would not be enough to eliminate these karma.

  Hou Yi took some of his clansmen to Mount Youmiao to escape the disaster, and Ping Xin also felt a little comfort in her heart. After all, the bloodline of the Wu tribe would not be completely destroyed this time, and as long as they were alive, there was still hope.

  All the disciples sat in the big tent discussing countermeasures. Among them, the highest was Ran Deng, who was sitting in the main seat and listening to the discussion of the disciples. Ran Deng was very clear about the strength of the Great Witch, although many disciples from the three schools had come, but those who could really fight against the Great Witch were probably only himself, and Ran Deng did not intend to fight to the death either.

  Du E's true identity sparked a heated discussion among everyone, but there was no substantial solution. It took great effort to kill just one Feng Bo, and Chi You had at least ten powerful sorcerers under his command. Chi You himself was also unfathomable. Du E's eyes gleamed as he thought of his mission, knowing that the opportunity had arrived.

  "Have you ever heard of a friend met on a narrow path?"

  The lamp looked down on loose cultivators, but the True Person of Du E was different. He not only had extensive connections, but also personally reached the Great Luo Realm, and could be considered a top expert in his field. Therefore, he was very polite to Du E.

  "Which one is it?"

  "The Carnal Paradise of the Asura Tribe."

  Du E's words shocked Ran Deng as soon as they came out, he didn't expect that Du E was actually acquainted with the Xue Hai's Xiuluo clan, it was truly a case of having connections everywhere. Ran Deng immediately thought of the purpose behind Du E mentioning this person.

  "Isn't Fellow Daoist trying to borrow their power to deal with the true body of the Witch Clan?"

  "Nothing escapes the Taoist friend, indeed it is so. To be honest, I really have no confidence in dealing with the Great Witch."

  The lamp and Du E were discussing, the other Xuanmen disciples also heard, some still didn't know what kind of person this Desire Heaven was, but people like Guang Chengzi had a stir in their hearts. The Tianxiao disciples considered even the Jiejiao to be an alien class, let alone the Shura tribe. However, Guang Chengzi was indeed intimidated by Chi You, the true body of the Great Witch couldn't be harmed by ordinary magic treasures, unless it was hit head-on by a pre-heavenly spirit treasure. If they could use the Shura to deal with the true body of the Witch tribe, that would be fine too, but they had to carefully weigh the pros and cons first.

  "Measure the evil path, tolerate the poor way in discussing one or two." Huo Deng did not dare to agree immediately, would the alliance with Shura bring about the original anger? Huo Deng was also uncertain.

  The next day, Chi You challenged the array here. A group of Xuanmen's second-generation disciples went to battle together under the leadership of Reng Deng. Reng Deng's old eyes scanned Chi You's army formation and was shocked. In the middle, there were more than three million people and horses, which was very different from ordinary human tribes. Reng Deng recognized at a glance that this was the Wu tribe's great army.

  The lamp is also a pre-birth great god, what does this witch tribe army mean, how can he not be clear, this is the former master of Honghuang, I'm afraid it's hard to win for the time being.

  Dai Wu Xiang Liu shouted first, the twelve Golden Immortals all exchanged blows with Xiang Liu, they knew that this Dai Wu's poisonous skills were difficult to match, without a protective treasure one would be at a disadvantage, therefore they did not dare to make a move.

  Laozi's only disciple, Xuandu Dafashi, took the lead and came out first. He held a wind-and-fire fan in his hand, moving slowly and elegantly, standing opposite Xiangliu. As Laozi's only disciple, Xuandu didn't need to take this step, but as a member of the human tribe who had achieved success in his cultivation and coincidentally during Chiyou's massacre of the human tribe, Laozi wanted him to resolve the knot in his heart in the mortal world, making preparations for his next step on the path of cultivation.

  Two men stood facing each other, sizing each other up. After exchanging names, Xiang Liu suddenly opened his mouth and a poisonous arrow shot towards Xuandu. Xuandu smiled slightly and with a light wave of his Wind and Fire fan, he deflected the arrow back. Xiang Liu quickly stepped forward, swinging his fist, which hurtled towards Xuandu.

  If one observes carefully, they will discover that on the surface of Xiang Liu's fist, there is a faint layer of dark black light. This is the condensation of toxic substances, capable of corroding magical artifacts and spiritual energy, extremely formidable.

  Xuandu didn't dodge either, and with a slight flick of his wrist, an object appeared. It was the Li Di Yan Guang flag, the ultimate defensive treasure. Xuandu waved his hand and placed it in mid-air, where bursts of flames protected him. Xiang Liu's poison couldn't get close to Xuandu's body. The two exchanged blows for over a dozen rounds, but Xiang Liu started to get anxious - could he really not take down this insignificant little cultivator?

  Xiang Liu suddenly let out a loud roar, revealing his true form as the Great Witch. He grew to be over a thousand feet tall, with a huge increase in both strength and speed. Despite his increased size, he became even more agile, and his venom became even more potent.

  Xuandu didn't have much combat experience to begin with, but relying on his exceptional magical tools, he was able to hold his own against Xiang Liu. Now, however, things were starting to get a bit tough for him. Guang Chengzi watched anxiously from the sidelines, thinking that Xuandu was his precious treasure and absolutely couldn't be lost. Guang Chengzi gripped the Heaven-Defying Seal tightly in his hand, ready to jump in and assist Xuandu at any moment.

  Ran Deng wasn't worried at all, he was well aware of the thickness of his family's wealth and power. Did Xuan Tu have some kind of magical treasure in his hands? How could he not deal with a mere Da Wu?

  Xuandu found it difficult to deal with Xiang Liu, so he took out another treasure, which was the Taiji Diagram. Xuandu's power was not enough to fully activate this treasure, but he could still exert two or three layers of its power. He shook his hand and cast it out, transforming it into a golden bridge that pinned down Xiang Liu. On top of his left hand appeared an ancient lamp, which was the Eight Scenic Spots Palace Lamp. Xuandu waved his hand to strike the wick, and several sparks flew out, surrounding Xiang Liu tightly. Then he retrieved the treasure, and the Taiji Diagram wrapped up Jiu Ying within it.

  The true fire of the Eight Scenic Palace Lamp combined with the yin-yang power of the Taiji Diagram, instantly turned Xiang Liu into ashes. Originally, using just one Taiji Diagram would have been enough, but Xuandu's skills were not sufficient, so they had to work together in coordination.

  Chi You, seeing that Xiang Liu was about to fall into danger, hastily led his troops to come and rescue him. Guang Chengzi also brought the multitude of immortals to kill their way forward. Xuan Dou continuously used several pre-heavenly spiritual treasures, including the ultimate treasure, which greatly depleted his magical energy, so he retreated behind the formation to rest. The immortals of the Zhuan Jiao sect couldn't help but admire Xuan Dou's magnanimity, being able to effortlessly produce pre-heavenly spiritual treasures at will, fearing that they themselves didn't even have one such treasure. People are just not comparable to each other.

  Chi You led a dozen or so powerful sorcerers to attack, and the Golden Immortals of the Orthodox Church were even more unable to withstand them, and had no choice but to retreat again. Of course, there were also outstanding performances, Zhao Gongming relied on the Dinghai Divine Pearl to wound several powerful sorcerers, and Feng Deng saw this treasure and was secretly making plans. However, relying on Zhao Gongming's bravery alone was not enough to change the situation, and now Chi You had even more newly added Shu tribe army, which was unstoppable.

  Another disastrous defeat, the Yellow Emperor was somewhat used to it. The right to decide victory or defeat did not lie with him, but rather with whether these Golden Immortals could eliminate those Witch Tribes. Fierce Lamp found Guang Chengzi and carefully discussed for half a day before making a decision: inviting Du E True Person to come, and asking Du E True Person to invite Yu Se Tian and other Xiu Luo to come.

  Yu E Zhenren said that the task was half completed, so he hastily got up and went to Xuehai, found Yuse Tian, and invited Chiyou to be born. This led to many troubles in later generations.

  Minghe has become more and more aware of the subtleties of the atmosphere since he established the Youming Sect. He is eager to pass on the orthodox teachings to Hongyuan, but the effect is minimal. The human race is still very simple and cannot accept the teachings of Shura for the time being. Minghe is also worried that when he learns that Du E, the representative of the Church, invites Shura to deal with Chiyou and the Wu tribe, Minghe is extremely excited, knowing that the opportunity he has been waiting for has finally arrived.

  At that time, he ordered Desire Heaven and Great Brahma to lead the elite of Shura to assist in the battle. As soon as Shura came out, Jikko and Zendai on Mount Sumeru in the west were extremely delighted. Jikko prepared two great causes for the disciples of the Tendai sect: one was to exterminate the bloodline of the sorcerer's tribe, and the other was to lure Shura into the world.

  Asura corresponds to the evil thoughts of humans, good and evil are interdependent, and the Tao and demons are born together. Now is indeed an opportunity for Asura to emerge in the world, but after all, the teachings of Asura will eventually corrupt people's hearts and lead them to the mortal world, which requires bearing great karma. For now, the evil deeds of Asura are not apparent, and the Golden Immortals who expound the teachings have no feeling about it yet. They are afraid that before long, they will have to swallow the bitter fruit.

  This matter cannot be hidden from the Original Heavenly Lord, but after careful consideration, he found that this might not be a bad idea. He could use it and then discard Shura afterwards. After all, even with his saintly status, the Original Heavenly Lord couldn't have predicted how depraved human hearts would become in later generations, and Shura's evil intentions were one with those of humans.

  There are people who have survived with the teachings of Asura, and later generations have spoken of countless beasts, generation after generation, without end. The saints' great law cannot be fully explained, but it can be truly felt, and that is why they make such calculations.

  The Tianjiao also had some face-saving estimates, not allowing the Asura army and the human tribe army to act together. Both sides allowed the Du'e Zhenren to cross each other, set up a plan together, and let the Witch tribe's army be completely destroyed.
