The Three Purities seem to have fallen, or perhaps they were annihilated by so entity or force, but these are rely conjectures from Jiang Li and Sun Wukong.
It's like looking at the sky from the bottom of a well, unable to see the full picture; entities at the level of the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Venerate are not sothing Jiang Li and Sun Wukong can discern with just a few words.
While it is all conjecture, it is best not to believe assumptions as truth.
One should treat it with a half-dose of skepticism to avoid becoming like a frog at the bottom of a well.
Therefore, in Jiang Li's view, instead of coveting the Dao Fruits and Dao Artifacts left by the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Venerate, it is better to first deal with the Great Heavenly Venerate and the Drought Demon Ba.
The Great Heavenly Venerate's body was taken from the remains of a Heavenly Monarch, indicating its importance. Without this body, Heaven would likely revert to its original state, and even with an intent to intervene, it could not bypass the restrictions set by the ancestors.
At the very least, it could prevent Heaven from obtaining a First Grade Dao Artifact.
It is unable to enter the realm of the Three Pure Ones; otherwise, if Heaven descends, Jiang Li would indeed be unable to overco the Great Heavenly Venerate.
Moreover, without enemy interference, Jiang Li has ample ti to acquire a First Grade Dao Artifact.
In the midst of contemplation, having already set a plan, Jiang Li quietly sends a trace of Divine Thought to Sun Wukong. One man, one monkey, and the dog hidden in Jiang Li's shadow begin to harbor murderous intent.
On the other side, the Great Heavenly Venerate naturally perceives Jiang Li's intentions.
Although Emperor Jiang is reputed for treating allies well, providing a sense of security, among his enemies, his reputation is sowhat notorious.
When it cos to overcoming adversaries, he uses every trick possible, leaving no stone unturned.
The late King Shu would have had plenty to say about this. When King Shu lost to Jiang Li, who had recently ascended to the fourth-rank, apart from issues of capability, Jiang Li's adeptness at scheming was a significant factor.
King Shu, racking his brains, could never have anticipated that Jiang Li would disguise himself as Gongsun Qingyue, securing victory through deceit.
The Great Heavenly Venerate furrows his brow slightly but does not act imdiately, saying from a distance: "Two esteed ones, the realm of the Three Pure Ones has already undergone changes, and the source of the End of Dharma has also manifested, likely alarming so beings. If you continue to engage with , beware of third-party intervention that may disrupt the situation and leave us all with nothing."
Third party...
"Tathagata and Great Sun Tathagata," Sun Wukong imdiately transmits, "Although I can't speak for others, these two certainly have the ability to sense changes in the realm of the Three Pure Ones. However, now they're like wandering ghosts; otherwise, I'd have urged you to leave long ago."
"Even if they co, so what? We have reinforcents too, nothing to worry about," Jiang Li replies.
He already intends to have Karma Tathagata co over.
With three First Grade Dao Artifacts and potentially more left by the Three Pure Ones, Jiang Li believes that he and Sun Wukong alone might not be enough, reinforcents are necessary.
Furthermore, Sun Monkey is essentially on the Karma Tathagata's side and definitely wants Karma Tathagata to arrive.
The man and the monkey exchange a glance and imdiately have a tacit understanding.
"Your Excellency might have so misunderstandings about ."
Jiang Li straightens his expression, solemnly saying: "The world knows Jiang Li honors his teachers and respects the Dao. Now that I have entered the gates of Yuxu Temple, I am a part of the Yuqing Daoist lineage. I will not allow you to disturb the Primordial Ancestor Master's peace. I hold no covetous intentions for the Three Pure Dao Artifacts, only wishing to protect the Dharma body and Dao Artifacts of the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Venerate."
"Indeed," the monkey also praises, saying, "I, Old Sun, have a long-standing friendship with the Supre Old Man... Lord Lao Zi. He has always treated like family, showing great kindness. I absolutely won't allow you to desecrate his remains."
The man and the monkey speak righteously, their words filled with integrity, truly moving to the heart.
Even the Great Heavenly Venerate, with his cunning mind and deep sches, felt an urge to shout "shaless" when hearing their words.
As for the Drought Demon Ba, unlike the Great Heavenly Venerate who conceals emotions, has been rendered speechless by their words.
Putting aside what teacher Emperor Jiang respects, or what Dao he honors, just consider Sun Monkey, a Buddhist Victorious Battle Buddha now turned nephew to Lord Lao Zi?
Even if there's friendship between Lord Lao Zi and Sun Monkey, it would never reach the point of passing down a Daoist inheritance or treating him like family.
This man and monkey, indeed speak lies with open eyes, caring not for their faces.
"That Drought Demon Ba has shown her card."
Sun Wukong was the first to transmit to Jiang Li, saying: "Who knows the exact relationship between Old Sun and the Supre Old Man in the post-Dharma world? Certainly, it was the Great Heavenly Venerate who disclosed Old Sun's details to the Drought Demon Ba, informing her of pre-Dharma events. I guessed right, the Great Heavenly Venerate is an old acquaintance."
"Now, I rather think the Drought Demon Ba herself is from the ti before the End of Dharma," Jiang Li replied, his gaze profound, his appearance unchanged.
Eight hundred years ago, Princess East Sun went into deviation during a great battle, was sealed, and yet returned to normal several decades later, remaining dormant beneath the Heaven and Earth Furnace until recently erging.
And now, having regained sanity, she seems to possess power at the level of a Supre.
This is abnormal, highly abnormal.
Power might grow from continuously drawing the Earth Fire, given the peculiar nature of the Drought Demon Dao Fruit, but breaking through in state of chaos and sleep is hardly feasible.
