Hesitating repeatedly, he seed to see Nezha sitting opposite him with a cheeky smile, saying: "I see your glabella is darkening, disaster is imminent in the coming days."
The fire in Nanji Immortal's heart erupted instantly, "Your glabella is darkening, your whole family's glabella is darkening!"
He decisively ford a very complex hand seal with both hands and struck it onto the Eternal Life Token. The token emitted a soft cyan light that penetrated the surrounding space, connecting to another world at an unknown distance, slowly forming a passage. Through the passage, Nanji Immortal saw the other side filled with spiritual energy and countless rare immortal herbs, even better than Kunlun.
He felt as if the world on the other side was calling him. Yes, the Path of Fortune and Longevity in this world was no longer passable, so he might as well change to another world.
He felt all the beautiful things in the new world were beckoning him. Was this the great opportunity his teacher left him?
Nanji Immortal gazed intoxicatedly at everything on the opposite side, unable to stop himself from slowly approaching. Just as he was about to step inside the passage, the Pangu Banner deep in Yuxu Palace, which had been silent, moved without wind. The gray sword light on it followed the Qi Fortune connection and directly struck beside Nanji Immortal, slicing onto the passageway.
The passageway was empty, yet emitted strange, eerie howls. Nanji Immortal's previously muddled gaze suddenly cleared up. A sudden burst of innurable fleshy tentacles erupted from the passage, binding him tightly. The bizarre suction cups on the tentacles embedded themselves into his body, injecting so unknown substance that rendered all his mana silent.
"Help... Ugh!"
The Pangu Banner in Yuxu Palace seed thoroughly enraged by this, sending out a Creation Sword Qi three tis larger than before, directly blasting into Nanji Immortal's palace. Under the sword energy, both the tentacles and passage were annihilated, and Nanji Immortal's whereabouts were unknown.
Outside, Bai He, who was still dealing with Yuxu Palace's routine affairs, was dumbfounded when he heard the loud noise. Who? Who dared cause trouble in my Yuxu Palace?
Halfway towards the source of the sound, he saw that his teacher Nanji Immortal's palace was completely devastated, and the remaining aura was that of the Creation Sword Qi from the Pangu Banner, familiar to all the inner sect Immortals of the Chan Sect.
Huh?
Did the Pangu Banner split his teacher in half?
Bai He instinctively slapped himself twice. Am I not dreaming?
Did his teacher betray the Chan Sect and join the Demon Dao?
Child Bai He, while activating all the arrays in Yuxu Palace, shouted: "Teacher? Teacher! Are you still there?"
"Teacher, are you still alive?"
"Teacher, if you're alive, please make a sound?"
"Teacher, did you fall into demonic ways?"
Standing within the array, he shouted for a long ti but dared not approach the ruins. There was no one else to manage things in Yuxu Palace besides him, and if sothing happened to him too, who would notify the other senior brothers?
After shouting for half a day with no response, he continued, "Teacher, hold on. I'll call the other senior uncles to co!"
With that said, he ran off, heading to the Golden Light Cave on Qianyuan Mountain to find Master Taoyi and the Yuzhu Cave on Zhongnan Mountain, finally deciding to head to the starry sky to fetch Jiang Ziya and Master Huang Long.
As of now, the present second-generation disciples of the Chan Sect were all gathered, and Bai He succinctly recounted what had happened, leaving everyone present dumbfounded.
What?
The Pangu Banner cut Senior Brother Nanji in two?
They looked at each other, a bit confused about the situation. None of them usually had the chance to control the Pangu Banner; the one who used it most was Guang Chengzi, but now he was bedridden and couldn't get up.
Master Taoyi, who was sowhat considered the leader, seeing that his fellow disciples had no solutions, suggested, "Nephew, first take us to the scene to have a look."
With four senior uncles around for courage, Child Bai He agreed decisively. A group of people, fully ard, entered Nanji Immortal's palace. They each used their own thods to investigate but found nothing unusual, nor did they find any trace of Nanji Immortal.
They all frowned one by one, unable to determine whether Nanji Immortal had run away or died, but since there was no apparent danger on-site, Yun Zhongzi and Master Taoyi instructed the others to wait in the distance while they searched for clues.
After half a quarter of an hour, the five gathered back at the original palace, sitting cross-legged together. In the middle was a fractured jade talisman barely pieced together, faintly bearing the words "Eternal Life."
The most skilled in artifact refinent and imitation, Yun Zhongzi, stroked his beard and explained, "Through my investigation, it was indeed the work of the Pangu Banner in that palace. However, what exactly happened we do not know, and this jade talisman seems to be left by the teacher, containing a faint space power. I am unsure about the exact location it points to.
Senior Brother Nanji seems to be stranded in another world, and places that the Pangu Banner would disdain are unlikely to be good destinations. Senior Brother Nanji might be in grave peril."
This left everyone silent. Triggering the Pangu Banner definitely wasn't a good destination, so should we attempt a rescue now? Going in and perishing would leave the Chan Sect with no one.
Even the usually enthusiastic Huang Long hesitated at the mont. He wanted to save the friendly elder brother, who always looked kind with a smiling face, but saving soone is different from sending oneself to death.
Not to ntion daring to go, right now they couldn't even pass with just a broken jade talisman.
But then again, they couldn't not save him. Their teacher, Yuanshi Tianzun, had personally gone into Chaos to capture a Demon God to save. Now that your elder brother is lost in another world, are you just gonna stand there with your eyes wide open? What would Yuanshi Tianzun think when he returns and finds out?
Master Taoyi and Yun Zhongzi had been diligently recovering their cultivation during this ti, while Master Huang Long remained the sa. As for Jiang Ziya, he was there just to make up numbers; the four of them looked around but had no good solutions.
Eventually, Master Taoyi ca up with an idea: "Currently, we need to first locate the world where he's stranded. We should find a Great Expert who is proficient in the Space Dao to fix the coordinates and then investigate the situation inside before seeking a rescue thod."
To save soone, you first need to find out where they went. Once you find out, assess the situation. If it isn't dangerous, we'll all go in and bring him back. If we can't handle it, we'll have to wait for our teacher to return, at least showing that we were trying.
Actually, everyone understood the first scenario was unlikely. Taking Nanji Immortal from Yuxu Palace and alarming the Pangu Banner wasn't sothing they could handle.
The group nodded, agreeing with Master Taoyi's proposal, simultaneously pondering who could still be invited among those proficient in the Space Dao. Eventually, they all thought of Nezha.
There's no other way; practitioners of the Space Dao were truly scarce in the Primordial World.
"How about inviting Junior Brother Nezha?"
"I think that's a good idea."
"Junior Brother Nezha is reliable."
"Let's go invite Junior Brother Nezha."
Child Bai He was a bit dumbfounded since the four senior uncles' arrival. Wait, we just had this person leave and now we're inviting him back?
Moreover, even if he wasn't sure about the specifics, Nezha ca around once, and his teacher's palace exploded, with the person missing. Bai He absolutely didn't believe there was no connection; after all, wasn't his teacher fine before?
But he couldn't say anything now, let alone offer any opinion. He just got four scapegoats, and he didn't want to stand up and grab the seat back.
Forget it, it doesn't matter, if you say invite, then invite.
To show the seriousness of this matter, Child Bai He personally went to the Ziwei Star Palace and formally invited Nezha, who received Bai He with a confused look.
Isn't this contrary, bro? How long has it really been since we t, and you're already thinking of ?
Bai He explained with a bitter expression the events that happened after Nezha left, finally stating his purpose there.
"Junior Master, Master Taoyi wants to invite you to use the residual space power to help locate where my teacher was lost, and also to ask Junior Master to overlook my teacher's previous mishaps."
Upon hearing this, Nezha was genuinely amused. Nanji Immortal went missing?
Indeed, the Heavenly Dao has its cycles, and who was ever forgiven under Cangwu? He saw Nanji Immortal's darkened glabella earlier, and he didn't believe it. And now, trouble has arisen, hasn't it?
Nezha didn't hesitate or put up a front and readily agreed to Enjoin Bai He. Since Master Taoyi and Yun Zhongzi had quite a pleasant rapport with him and sent soone to invite him, he had to help.
By chance, he could watch and enjoy the joke about Nanji Immortal. That was pretty great.
