…
Ever since that day when All Saints retreated to their respective domains, Huaxia Heaven and Earth seed to have beco more bustling.
Saint Disciples were driven out by the Saints. Even Taiching Saint had expelled Xuan Dou, who served by his side, from East Kunlun Mountain.
The Saints demanded that disciples go into the Huaxia Clan’s world to practice cultivation, and they elegantly terd it as refining the heart amidst worldly dust.
Various signs indicate that Huaxia Land is now in a period of rapid developnt. It remains uncertain if all Saint Disciples entering the mortal world will bring fortune or calamity to Huaxia.
Western Great Leiyin Temple.
“Master, have the Eastern Saints beco aware of the matter of the Saint Position?” Jieyin frowned, appearing deeply concerned.
Sitting quietly under the Bodhi Tree, Xuanhu smiled and said, “What if they know? The Saint Position requires a person of great determination and opportunity to obtain! Without finding soone who can break the calamity, all talk is useless!”
Jieyin’s eyes lit up, and he imdiately responded, “Disciple understands. I will arrange it right away!”
Having said that, Jieyin hurriedly left.
Now looking at the Huaxia Clan’s side.
After Xuanyuan retired with the two Saint Emperors to Fire Cloud Cave, Zhuanxu took over the position of Sovereign.
This Zhuanxu possessed so virtues and followed the policies of the Yellow Emperor strictly after his accession. The Inland Human Clan intermarried with the Four Extres Barbarians, gradually integrating the Barbarian lifestyles into the Huaxia Clan.
In less than three years, the Human Clan entered a period of rapid developnt, and the clan experienced peace and stability.
The only flaw was the persistence of so hard-liners within these Barbarian tribes. They held onto their own tribal bloodline heritage, education in runes, and religious beliefs.
Before Xuanyuan’s ascension, his ministers had advised him to completely exterminate these hard-liner Barbarians.
Xuanyuan, unable to bear it, exiled them to the edges of West Niu Hezhou, leaving them to their own devices. This sowed the seeds of a future problem.
With the rapid developnt of the Human Clan, these stubborn Barbarian elents, left on the margins of Huaxia Land, gradually grew in influence. They tad beasts, manipulated spirits, and spread the culture of Witchcraft. They frequently harassed the local Human Clan and often clashed with the stationed military and civilians.
Zhuanxu had sent troops several tis but had never been able to fully eradicate them, which greatly troubled him.
One day, while Zhuanxu was examining the terrain of West Niu Hezhou inside the capital, suddenly, he heard ethereal immortal music outside the hall.
Soon after, a guard entered and reported, “Your Majesty, a Buddha has descended from the sky outside the hall and wishes to see you!”
By now, Buddhism had already spread widely across Huaxia Land, and their teachings were ten tis, even a hundred tis more powerful than the Cultivators of the Sacrificial Pavilion.
Upon hearing this, Zhuanxu hurriedly stood up and said, “Quick, invite the Saint Buddha into the hall, and do not neglect our honored guest!”
“Yes,” the guard imdiately ran out of the great hall to welco the Buddha inside.
The Buddha, dressed in an earthy yellow kasaya, bare-chested and bare-ard, with hands pressed together and a string of ancient, smooth buddha beads on each wrist, and wearing straw sandals, had a handso face and bright, spirited eyes.
The Buddha greeted Zhuanxu with a bow and said, “Amitabha Buddha! The monk has seen the Sovereign!”
Zhuanxu looked at him curiously for a while, then personally went forward to help him up, saying, “Saint Buddha, please rise! May I inquire where has Saint Buddha co from and where is he heading to?”
The Buddha, with a gentle smile on his face, said, “This humble monk is nad Pharmacist, from Western Great Leiyin Temple. My master is the Buddha Sect Hierarch, Saint Zhunti!”
Zhuanxu’s face showed surprise. As the Shared Ruler of the Human Clan, he knew many things unknown to ordinary people. He naturally understood Jieyin’s supre status in Huaxia Land.
Thus, he quickly bowed in respect and said, “I apologize for my ignorance, to think that Saint Buddha is a disciple of the Saint!
“Your Majesty, you flatter !”
“May I know the reason for Saint Buddha’s long journey here?”
Pharmacist laughed heartily and said, “This humble monk heard that on the edges of Huaxia land, the region of the Human Clan is rife with Witchcraft. Therefore, I have co specially to offer Your Majesty a strategy to eradicate Witchcraft!”
Zhuanxu’s face lit up with joy, and he promptly invited Pharmacist to take a seat of honor, eagerly asking, “What good strategy does Saint Buddha have?”
Pharmacist’s expression turned serious and said, “Peace!”
“Peace?” Zhuanxu looked puzzled, “How so?”
Pharmacist replied, “Don’t rush, let this humble monk explain everything in detail!”
Then, Pharmacist Buddha began to explain to Zhuanxu, making him overjoyed and nodding repeatedly.
Unknowingly, the sun had set, and Zhuanxu finally ca to his senses and imdiately ordered a feast to honor Pharmacist.
During the banquet, in front of all the ministers who ca to attend, Zhuanxu openly stated that he would take Pharmacist as his master to study Buddhist secret techniques and ordered the construction of a temple within the capital for Pharmacist to practice.
The next day, Zhuanxu mobilized thousands of artisans at a feng shui treasure spot in the capital to start the construction of the temple. anwhile, the news of Pharmacist as Emperor’s Master quickly spread throughout the Huaxia Divine Land.
As for this, reactions from various forces were mixed.
East Sea Penglai Island.
While playing chess with Yang i, Li Qingming suddenly grinned and said, “Old fellow, that cunning fox has made its move!”
Yang i frowned lightly, pointing at the chessboard in front of him, and said with another aning, “That is truly a terrible move, absolutely foul-slling!”
Li Qingming flew a piece to kill off Yang i’s big dragon, and coldly laughed, “Serves you right!”
East Kunlun Mountain, Hall of The Three Pure Ones.
“This Li Qingming is truly demonic! How did he know that Jieyin would definitely send disciples to persuade the Human Clan’s Shared Ruler?” Tongtian furrowed his brows, desperately calculating, but still without any results.
Primordial smiled broadly and said, “It seems that this ti Elder Xuanhu is going to suffer a big loss!”
In the secluded Hall of Earth in the Nine Nether Earthly Palace, Houtu slightly lifted her red lips revealing a hint of coldness, muttering to herself, “Fine, if Xuanhu wishes to exploit my Witch Tribe, then don’t bla for severing one of your arms!”
It is said that only petty n and won are difficult to raise, and indeed, this saying is not false!
…
In just one month, the majestic Little Leiyin Temple has been built within the capital.
In the ti that followed, Jieyin carried on as usual, walking within the capital and preaching Buddhism. He also visited Zhuanxu’s palace daily on ti, imparting him with Buddhist secret techniques.
Zhuanxu seed to also be introverted, focusing on learning the Tao, consciously forgetting the rampant spread of the Wu Witch Sect in the frontier cities.
After several months of silence, Zhuanxu suddenly dispatched envoys to the frontier lands, aiming to marry the daughter of the Shaman Witch of the Witch Sect.
The leader of the Witch Sect was the Shaman Witch.
It must be said that the Witch is a legendary figure. Before Chi You developed spiritual intelligence in his youth, he learned so of the most basic witchcraft under the Witch. After the defeat of the Jiuli, he took so of his loyal kinsn. They wandered the Huaxia Land, evading Xuanyuan’s pursuit and later founded the Witch Sect, declaring himself Shaman.
The old Witch, now with a daughter, born as beautiful as a flower and naturally possessing two Witch Tribe bloodlines.
After years of careful teaching by her father, her cultivation has reached the realm of the Earth Witch.
West Niu Hezhou, the main temple of the Witch Sect.
The enormous Witch God Hall was already filled with people, each one with a solemn expression, as if a great event was looming.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man seated in the front left broke the silence, saying, “Shaman Sir, are we really going to let Little Yue’er walk into the tiger’s den?”
The stooped old man at the head glanced lifelessly at everyone and said, “This is the best solution! For many years, we have wanted to pass our doctrines to his region, but Zhuanxu has been extrely cautious towards us! If Little Yue’er can beco Zhuanxu’s wife, our Witch Sect will surely flourish!”
“But…” the middle-aged man looked unwilling to partake, wanting to say more.
Suddenly, a beautiful figure appeared at the entrance of the hall, and her voice clear as a thrush interrupted him, “Uncle Sang Shan, stop persuading my father, I am willing to marry Zhuanxu!”
The Witch stepped forward a few paces, his hand as skinny as an old tree rising to gently touch Little Yue’er’s long hair, saying, “Little Yue’er, you have suffered!”
Days later, a lengthy bridal procession began from Jizhou Capital, using the aid of flying Spiritual Treasures, it took two days to escort the Shaman Witch’s daughter back.
Naturally, the daughter’s wedding, the Shaman Witch and many high-ranking mbers of the Wu Witch Sect, all accompanied the bridal procession to attend the wedding in Jizhou Capital.
Returning to the capital, naturally, was a series of complex matrimonial rituals. Everything seed to be proceeding according to Jieyin’s plan, without the slightest deviation.
During the banquet, the Pharmacist and the newlyweds personally accompanied the Witch and several high-ranking mbers of the Witch Sect.
Zhuanxu, holding a small cup filled with wine, said to the Witch, “Shaman Sir, I must thank you for marrying your daughter to ! Zhuanxu will drink first to show respect!”
The Witch usually did not drink, but Zhuanxu was too enthusiastic, forcing him to raise his cup and drink it all, saying, “Your Majesty must never fail my daughter in the future!”
The high-ranking mbers of the Witch Sect seated at the sa table as the Witch, all looking up to him, seeing his action, also picked up their cups and began drinking.
The entire banquet suddenly beca lively, with singing and dancing, perfect harmony—a truly magnificent scene!
…
During this banquet, the mbers of the Witch Sect drank a lot of wine.
As ti passed, it seed that guests at other tables gradually lessened, leaving only those Cultivators from the Sacrificial Pavilion and hosts, Jieyin and Zhuanxu, remaining.
At this mont, Little Yue’er seated beside Zhuanxu suddenly sensed sothing was wrong.
Suddenly, the best drinker, Sang Shan, dizzily slumped from his seat to the ground, snoring loudly.
These high-level mbers of the Witch Sect all possessed the cultivation of Heavenly Witches, in the Cultivation World they were also high-ranked Golden Immortals. Logically, with their cultivation accomplishnts, no amount of alcohol should make them drunk.
At this, Little Yue’er was completely awakened. Looking around, she found that all the mbers of the Witch Sect seed unable to sit properly, slumped on the ground.
“Poison!”
The undrunk Little Yue’er’s mind suddenly flashed with this word.
Thinking of this, she abruptly stood up, glaring at Zhuanxu and Jieyin and exclaid, “Zhuanxu, you and your teacher are utterly despicable!” (To be continued.
