Watching Nezha, the story of Nezha's suicide in the Investiture of the Gods brought tears to my

Inside the Void Heaven Palace, Han Li stood tall and straight, with traces of the Asura Sacred Flame still remaining on the ground in front of him.

Xuan Gu Zhenren's physical body, along with his nascent soul, was burned to ashes by the backlash of his own Asura Sacred Fire.

He looked up at the sky when he heard Shen Gongbao and Li Jing arguing on the screen.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If you want to cultivate immortality and achieve enlightenment, you still have to control your desires."

Han Li muttered something to himself and then carefully put away the Void Heaven Cauldron.

Back then, not long after he met Master Xuan Gu, the other party gave him a golden silk ball and an array to capture the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng.

If he hadn't restrained his greed and hadn't been so eager to take the golden silk ball and the formation for himself before discovering any problems, he would have been in a different situation.

He was possessed by a ghost cultivator back then, how could he have gotten to where he is today?

Even Xuan Gu Zhenren wanted to kill him because he wanted to monopolize the Void Heaven Cauldron.

Instead, he ended up being devoured by his own Asura Sacred Fire.

Han Li walked out of the inner hall of the Void Heaven Palace without looking to the side, leaving only one sentence in the air.

"If you don't control your desires, you will eventually fall victim to greed. If you do good deeds and accumulate virtue, you can cultivate immortality and attain enlightenment. Immortals are saints."

However, in reality, cultivators are fighting against the heavens and against other people.

Simply doing good deeds and being soft-hearted is not enough to survive in the cruel world of cultivators.

……

The eternal world.

After knocking down the rogue cultivator who had tried to kill him for treasure, Fang Han slowly walked to his side.

Without any hesitation, he activated the Devouring Divine Art within his body, and strands of cultivation energy floated out from the rogue cultivator and were then swallowed into his body.

The rogue cultivator twitched unconsciously, but no matter what he did, he couldn't wake up or move.

Fang Han slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air after absorbing the last bit of the opponent's cultivation.

Before leaving, Fang Han only glanced at the sky indifferently, showing little interest in the two's argument about whether cultivating immortality and achieving enlightenment relied on restraining desires or doing good deeds.

To put it bluntly, this is a cannibalistic world.

If we must talk about cultivating immortality and achieving eternal life, what does it rely on? It's "eating people."

Absorb the opponent's cultivation to strengthen oneself.

……

A sea monster leaped swiftly onto the city wall and rushed in, shouting, "Report! Someone requests an audience with Master Shen!"

Shen Gongbao looked over and saw two people helping Shen Xiaobao in. He was shocked and ran over, half-embracing Shen Xiaobao.

"How did you get injured like this!" Shen Gongbao was both angry and worried, and carefully touched Shen Xiaobao's injury with his palm.

Shen Xiaobao weakly opened his eyes a crack, "A group of Taoist priests surrounded... attacked our family, and Dad's arm was cut off."

Shen Gongbao's eyes widened, and he roared through rage, "Who did this?!"

"That...that person's name is Nezha." After saying this, Shen Xiaobao transformed back into a leopard and lost consciousness.

Shen Gongbao, holding his younger brother, slowly raised his head, tears welling up in his eyes and streaming down his face.

His eyes were wide open, his teeth clenched, filled with grief and hatred.

They were originally enjoying a pleasant time watching the sky, and then they had a minor argument about Shen Gongbao and Li Jing's understanding of cultivation, and who was right and who was wrong.

I was caught off guard and witnessed this scene.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, a bad premonition creeping in.

"Why did Nezha suddenly attack Shen Gongbao's family?"

A disciple of the Chan Sect raised his eyelids and said disdainfully, "It's probably because Shen Gongbao's father used some evil magic to cultivate. Besides, Nezha is a disciple of an immortal, and it is the natural order for him to slay demons and monsters."

"How can you talk like that?"

A slightly overweight member of the Jie Sect rolled up his sleeves and glared at them, clearly displeased.

"So what if I'm a demon? Many of my disciples in the Jie Sect are demons who have cultivated into human form. Are you expressing dissatisfaction with my Jie Sect?"

The disciple of the Chan Sect was about to argue when he turned around and saw who was speaking, so he quickly stopped talking.

The person from the Jie Sect who refuted him was none other than Tianbao Daoren.

This is someone he can't afford to mess with.

The disciple of the Chan Sect quickly replied, "It was a slip of the tongue."

The other disciples from the three religions also began to whisper among themselves.

“But Shen Xiaobao identified Nezha himself, so there’s no reason for him to deliberately frame Nezha.”

"Regardless of whether it's a frame-up or not, Shen Gongbao will definitely believe his brother's words. It's just a matter of who knows what Shen Gongbao will do in his rage."

"Who knows, they might just massacre everyone in Chentang Pass and finish what they didn't do before."

Among the three religions, the disciples of the three sages were mostly silent at this moment.

Taiyi sighed softly, "Nezha wouldn't do such a thing, and Shen Gongbao probably wouldn't go so far as to slaughter Chentang Pass."

However, something big is about to happen.

……

After Nezha and his companions returned to Jade Void Palace after completing the second trial, Deer Boy said, "The third trial is the rocky islet on Skull Mountain."

Just then, a disciple of the Chan Sect rushed in and said urgently, "There is someone outside the hall who urgently requests an audience with Immortal Taiyi!"

[“Huh?” Taiyi and Nezha turned around in confusion.]

Two barrier beasts staggered in, the flat-headed one collapsing to the ground. "Chen, Chen Tang Pass, something's happened!"

[Nezha and the others were so frightened that they hurriedly returned. When they arrived back at Chen Tang Pass, they found only scorched earth with dried lava flowing everywhere.]

All the buildings were reduced to ruins, and a few mummified corpses lay among them; apart from that, there was no one else to be seen.

The entire Chen Tang Pass is now only black and red, with magma rocks and soot left after the lava dried up, resembling a living hell.

Nezha picked up Yin Shiniang's helmet that had fallen to the ground, as if he could see Yin Shiniang as she was being attacked.

He choked back tears and slowly knelt down.

The Immortal Elder, riding on auspicious clouds, rushed over, demanding, "What has happened? Who has committed such a heinous crime?!"

[The deer boy knelt and bowed to the Boundless Immortal, saying, "The barrier beasts said that their barrier was struck by a tremendous force, causing them to fall unconscious. When they awoke, Chen Tang Pass had been massacred."]

"Great! Just now, Master Taiyi said that Shen Gongbao wouldn't do such a thing, but Shen Gongbao actually slaughtered Chen Tang Pass!"

The disciples of the Chan Sect who had just been refuted by Daoist Tianbao immediately spoke up.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Gongbao walked over, and everyone present turned to look at him.

Shen Gongbao stopped, bewildered. "W-what's wrong?"

After asking the question, Shen Gongbao seemed to notice that the disciples of the three religions were all glancing at the sky. He looked over in confusion.

Then I saw Chentang Pass transformed into a hellish landscape on the sky.

Shen Gongbao was completely stunned. He remembered that in the previous scene in the sky, his brother—no, in the scene in the sky, his brother had an accident.

He also said that Nezha had hurt him and his father.

[60] A vain homebody: Lady Shiji! The Holy Lord laughs so hard he peees: Isn't that Demon Bo Gang?! Nezha Legend - Shiji's Fury: You insult me!

Shen Gongbao was immediately terrified.

"Shen Gongbao! Li Jing even covered for you in front of your brother, yet you still slaughtered all the people of Chentang Pass!"

"To commit such a heinous crime as massacring an entire city is an unforgivable sin!"

The disciples of the three religions all glared angrily at Shen Gongbao and cursed him incessantly.

Shen Gongbao, who was just there to deliver a message, was completely bewildered by the insults he received.

……

The world of Fengshen.

Before the valley, the armies of Shang and Zhou stood facing each other, with several cultivators at the front of each formation, holding magical treasures and poised to attack.

However, before they even started fighting, they were already shocked by the hellish Chen Tang Pass in the sky.

Jiang Ziya and the others' expressions changed drastically. Recalling what Shen Xiaobao had said earlier about Nezha besieging him and his father, they all looked at Shen Gongbao.

"Shen Gongbao!"

Jiang Ziya, gripping the God-Slaying Whip, pointed it at Shen Gongbao and angrily rebuked him:

“Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. If it was truly Nezha who did it, you can go and confront him. He actually slaughtered the innocent people of the whole city!”

"This is utterly outrageous! They repay kindness with enmity! It's a waste that Li Jing and his wife were so kind to you!"

"Nezha is even saving your disciple, you ungrateful wretch!"

Shen Gongbao was thoroughly scolded, and even his teammates behind him cast strange glances at him.
