Chapter 456: The End of the Idle Man

The cave door opened, and a beautiful woman in a silver-white robe walked in. She bowed to Jing Yu and said:

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Jing, it's been a year since we last met."

"Fellow Daoist Xu, what's this?"

Jing Yu looked Xu Baiwei up and down, and suddenly said, "Daoyou, you have a body full of Dharma light, and your cultivation has reached the perfection of the Golden Core. I think Xiyue Peak is not short of the resources to form an infant. Isn't it time for you to retreat and form an infant?"

“Just in the last few years.”

Xu Baiwei smiled slightly and said, "It's just that Dongxuan Tianjun is away right now. If he really has formed a Nascent Soul, it would be more convenient for him to move around than a Golden Core..."

"Originally, there was no need for Bai Wei to come this time. In the past, it would have been a matter of a moment for my master to travel through the void. But now it has become a hassle."

Jing Yu smiled and said, "It is said that Tianjun Dongxuan has already gone south and is no longer in Zhongzhou. Zhenjun Qi is being too cautious."

"Better safe than sorry," Xu Baiwei said softly. "Planning and laying out your plans is more important than conquering cities and territories; it's more important to hold onto your existing territory. Master, with his worth a million dollars, naturally can't stand under a precarious wall."

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Jing has a close relationship with Master Xiao from Nanyue Peak. We should persuade Master Xiao to stop wandering around Penglai Immortal Continent these days."

Jing Yu nodded. "I wonder what instructions Master Qi sent you to give me?"

Xu Baiwei pursed her lips and said, "I heard that fellow Daoist might be going to Yunchuan Territory in the next few years?"

Jing Yu was speechless: "As expected of the master of chess, he is so well-informed about the news on Xiyue Peak..."

The silver-robed woman took out a round jade pendant engraved with a rootless lotus from her bosom and placed it in front of Jing Yu.

"This is?"

But Xu Baiwei slowly said, "Do you remember the Three Demons of the Tang Family, Fellow Daoist Xuan Jing?"

"Of course I remember." Jing Yu raised an eyebrow. "Among them, the [Devil of Devil] died at my hands."

"It seems that fellow Daoist also knows that these three demons are actually just the vessels for the greed, anger, and delusion of Tang Wei, the True Lord of the Three Poisons."

"Yes, I've heard several adults mention this." Jing Yu pondered, "If we can kill the two devils of greed and anger, Tang Wei may even have a chance to reach the state of incarnation."

Xu Baiwei smiled and said, "That's right. Fellow Daoist has already killed the Devil of Delusion. In fact, you have already taken on the great karma of helping Tang Wei to eliminate delusion and rectify his mind. When you travel to the Yunchuan Region this time, you will most likely encounter the two demons of greed and anger. This is karma, and it may not be intentional by the Three Poisons True Lord..."

"After all, cutting off delusion and rectifying the mind is to let nature take its course. If you deliberately arrange it, your attachment to it is also a delusion."

Jing Yu suddenly realized, "So that's why... Is this why Tang Wei couldn't ask anyone to slay the Three Demons? Because if he did, he would become obsessed, and slaying his delusion and rectifying his mind would become a luxury."

"This strange blend of Buddhist and demonic techniques always has its own restrictions. Otherwise, everyone would have been practicing it long ago. Wouldn't everyone have the opportunity to become a god?" Xu Baiwei shook her head. "After all, it's not the right path."

She pushed the jade pendant in front of Jing Yu and said, "If you encounter a greedy demon on this trip, you can kill it directly without holding back."

"If you encounter the [Angry Demon]... remember to crush this jade pendant in front of it first."

"What's the logic behind this?" Jing Yu frowned.

"This is a step that my master left behind hundreds of years ago, and now it's time to finish it."

Xu Baiwei said vaguely: "Once you do as I say, you will naturally understand everything."

Jing Yu shook his head: "If Fellow Daoist Xu doesn't explain it more clearly, I'm sorry that Xuan Jing can't obey your orders."

"This will not harm you, fellow Taoist." Xu Baiwei said helplessly.

"But it's of no benefit to me." Jing Yu spread his hands.

"That's not the way to say it. Buddhism and Taoism emphasize karma the most. The karma between you and Tang Wei was forged the moment you killed the Devil of Delusion. Regardless of whether this jade pendant is given to you or not, the two demons of Greed and Anger will most likely die at your hands."

"When Tang Wei kills Wang Zhengxin, fellow Daoist will be his greatest benefactor in his ascension to the God Transformation stage."

"But great kindness can also be a great vengeance. Isn't the thought of severing false thoughts just another kind of delusion? The [Three Poisons Delusion Technique], shared by both Buddha and demon, is already strangely powerful... Who knows if Tang Wei will attack fellow Daoist?"

"Now fellow Daoist is a highly regarded prodigy in the Penglai righteous path, and Tang Wei is only a Yuanying Zhenjun, so he dares not act rashly."

"If he ascends to the divine realm and becomes a Heavenly Monarch, who will be able to protect you, fellow Taoist?"

Xu Baiwei's exposition of the pros and cons made Jing Yu look even more dissatisfied. He frowned and said, "Friend Xu, I'm not stupid. I know the pros and cons clearly. Why are you wasting your breath? What I mean is..."

He tapped the tea table in front of him with his fingers and went straight to the point:

"You have to pay more."

----

After tying the bulging storage bag given by Xu Baiwei around his waist, Jing Yu did not disturb anyone and quietly escaped from Xuan Ce Gate. He changed his appearance and sneaked into a Taixu Tower ship. After two full months, he finally arrived at the [Baihua Domain] north of Yunchuan.

Now that the Yunchuan Region has been occupied by the Demonic Path, the trade route with Zhongzhou has naturally been cut off, and it is impossible to arrive directly by taking the Taixu Tower ship. Jing Yu went to such great lengths because he did not want to attract the attention of the Tiannan Demonic Path.

Fortunately, [Ku Du Xuan Guang] was the best at concealing his breath, and he was also proficient in earth escape. Even the Yuanying Zhenjun could not catch his trace. He finally arrived at Xiaoyao Xiancheng without any danger along the way.

"This……"

As he walked along, Jing Yu became more and more frightened.

He originally thought that the Yunchuan region had been occupied by the Tiannan Demon Sect, and that now it must be a land of devastation and hell on earth, with all the righteous cultivators being controlled by restrictions and poisonous insects, unable to control their own destiny.

But he secretly observed the towns and fairies along the way, and found that the vast majority of righteous cultivators were just as usual, no different from when they were under the rule of the Free and Easy Alliance.

The demonic monks patrolling the streets were somewhat arrogant and domineering, but they were also well-behaved and did not do anything to oppress others. The demonic aura they exuded was not even as strong as that of the monks from the Six Paths of Zhongzhou.

As for the low-level cultivators under the jurisdiction of the Yunchuan Domain, many of them felt that the Demonic Path had fewer rules and was not as rigid as the Orthodox Path. Many quick-witted cultivators gained a lot of benefits by breaking the rules first and found another way.

He even spared no effort to help the Tiannan Demonic Sect hunt down the fugitive high-level monks of the Xiaoyao League, and seemed to have completely surrendered to the Demonic Sect.

As for the mortal world, it was no different from before. Although there were sporadic demon cultivators secretly slaughtering people in the mortal world, most of them were low-level demon cultivators in the Qi training period. The Tiannan Demon Sect even set up a large number of patrol teams to maintain stability in the mortal world, which made Jing Yu doubt his life.

"It is said that the Tiannan Demon Sect's invasion of the three regions was driven solely by [True Lord Suying] Xiao Guanying. I'm sure this scenario was also within Xiao Guanying's imagination..."

Seeing this, Jing Yu was puzzled. "What exactly is Xiao Guanying planning? Is he really planning to abandon the debate between good and evil, rule the world, and establish a new immortal dynasty?"
