Chapter 322: Chapter 319: The Beginning of the Conspiracy, Slandered Reputation

At the same time, beyond the high heavens of Yaochi Fairyland.

Rustle...

Accompanied by a burst of golden radiance, a vast Heavenly River that had no beginning or end suddenly smashed out from the void.

However, what flowed within was not water, but a milky white, thick liquid.

It was only when the rich fragrance of milk spread out that one realized in shock that this was a river full of milk.

More accurately, it was another form of Heavenly Spirit Qi under the control of the West Queen Holy Mother—the Heavenly Mother’s Primordial Qi!

Immediately afterward, a gracefully full-bodied goddess in a long green dress that trailed along the ground, exuding maternal brilliance, stepped out of the Heavenly River, parting it with a golden hairpin in her hand.

Whoosh—!

At that moment, the drifting clouds, the howling winds, and even the sunlight casting upon Her, were all instinctively given life, twirling around Her gracefully.

She bore a resemblance to the West King Holy Mother that Wang Yuan had seen in the White Jade Scroll, at least in appearance.

Yet, despite outwardly resembling a beauty, to others, She lacked even the slightest trace of "humanity."

When one looked upon Her, there was nothing but an uncontrollable bone-chilling coldness rising wave after wave within one’s heart.

It was as though She was something akin to an entity from "Horror Valley," where things that looked human but were not truly human were the most terrifying existence in the world!

Perhaps because ancestors had been preyed upon by such beings for years on end.

It seemed that the fear had been deeply etched into every person’s bones and would continue to be passed down through their bloodline forever.

The Six-Eared Macaque, holding a Thousand Catties Talisman Giant Rod and standing on a golden cloud, was not at all deceived by Her appearance.

The Corpse Dissection Immortals knew all too well the details of these weird entities.

The image displayed by the Heavenly Officials originated from the corruption of the Heavenly Department Divine Position, after peeling away the skin of the gods of the Human Dao and burrowing in themselves.

Such imagery could only fool the ignorant mortals; no matter what, the weirdness could not deceive those who pursued cultivation.

In the golden pupils shining with divine light of the Six-Eared Macaque,

The upper half of this West King Holy Mother was a pale woman’s body, which suddenly swelled from the abdomen down, turning into a massive mass of flesh that resembled black clouds, constantly rolling and festering.

The black clouds sometimes gathered and sometimes dispersed, occasionally forming terrifying reproductive organs, sticky black tentacles, or giant mouths dripping with mucus...

Or perhaps what might be peaches, or other flesh lumps used for breastfeeding...

Or twisted, malformed short legs, with hooves at their ends that could be barely called sheep’s feet...

And the rolling river of milk that surrounded Her had turned into a flowing grey-white pus, originating from the festering sores and malformed organs on the West King Holy Mother’s body.

This Heavenly Official’s body was so enormous that just by lying across the path, she firmly blocked the route of escape for the Victorious Fighting King.

It seemed like misfortunes never came singly.

Behind the Six-Eared Macaque, the space was also filled with a vast and substantial Buddha light.

Within the Buddha light, three Old Buddhas were faintly visible.

One Old Buddha had a hunched figure like an elder, wearing a green kasaya, sitting on a triple-layered Lotus Platform, with a Green Sun appearing behind his head;

another Old Buddha had a robust figure like a man in his prime, wearing a red kasaya, sitting on a six-layered Lotus Platform, with a Red Sun appearing behind his head;

the last Old Buddha had a slender figure like a youth, wearing a white kasaya, sitting on a nine-tiered Lotus Platform, with a White Sun appearing behind his head.

Strangely, the heads of these three Buddhas were not human heads, but they corresponded to the giant sundials of dusk, noon, and morning.

And a liquid that was unclear whether it was blood or magma flowed gently from the cracks in the Lotus Platform, entering the sea of Buddha light around their bodies.

The heat was overwhelming, as if it could scorch the heavens and boil the seas.

This was the Green Sun, Red Sun, and White Sun avatars of the No-Life Buddha, representing the past, present, and future, respectively.

Both Heavenly Officials cornered the Victorious Fighting King, trapping the golden monkey shadow firmly in the middle.

Though they remained silent,

The whole world began to recite verses from the recorded scriptures of the "West Queen Holy Mother Divine Transformation Scripture" and the "Right Faith Deliverance from Doubt Non-effort Self Nature Precious Volume."

They naturally spread the knowledge of the two Heavenly Officials.

It was like a demonic sound pouring into one’s ears, making the Six-Eared Macaque feel a headache coming on.

"Stop it! So annoying!"

With a roar, he shattered the drifting clouds, and the raging aura forcefully burst through the atmosphere, also shattering the chanting voices around him.

Following that, a golden monkey shadow swung the rod in its hand that grew with the wind, crashing down towards Them like a collapsing Taishan.

Boom!!!

The dazzling light caused everyone in both Heavenly Realms to be nearly blinded for a moment.

Great Dao Simplicity.

The battle at the Corpse Dissection Immortal level seemed to revert to a mortal era, returning to simplicity, without ostentation.

Only now they wielded not fists and feet, but their own Dao and principles.

Every move bore the might of heaven, and each spark from the collision of "principles" seemed capable of splitting mountains and destroying peaks, easily crushing an invincible Martial Saint of the mortal world.

The three Corpse Dissection Immortals entangled with each other, fighting from the easternmost edge of the sky to the westernmost edge, and then from the west back to the east, with the world collapsing in their wake.

Even the Six-Eared Macaque, who was a protector war god and especially adept at fighting, could not withstand the combined onslaught of two Heavenly Officials.

His body gradually grew more flesh, his buttocks became more reddened with seven or eight red ears, four or five red eyes sprouting, and half of his fur scalded black.

And to catch the turtle in the urn and prevent the Nine Soldiers from rescuing,

The first day’s "Residence of Good Law Hall Heaven" and the second day’s "Great Bright Jade Complete Heaven" also moved, firmly blocking the Heavenly Gate.

This was clearly a deadly trap set for the notorious thief, Six-Eared Macaque, using three Green Peaches as bait.

Even at the risk of damaging the Heavenly Realm’s Daoist halls, they were determined to kill that audacious and particularly troublesome monkey right here!

The "Corpse Dissection Immortals" were temporarily blocked beneath the "Heavenly Gate" by the Heavenly Realm.

By the time they had breached the first and second heavens, enough time had passed for the "West King Holy Mother" and the "No-Life Buddha" to have done away with the macaque.

As time went on.

Seeing the contamination on the body of the "Victorious Fighting King" getting increasingly severe, two "Heavenly Officials" were about to put forth more effort, striving to inflict a heavy blow on him.

From the hazy void beneath the "No-Life Buddha", suddenly there came a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering blast of thunder.

All was darkened in heaven and earth.

A line of magnificent lightning, long in the making, struck like the Heavenly Opening Sword of the Ancient Thunder God, with the swiftness and force of thunder that does not allow one to cover one’s ears.

Carrying billions of thunders, it hit the "Red Sun Buddha" hard, smashing half of the lotus platform and lower body beneath Him.

Then, unabated, it ripped a large hole in the Milky Way.

So fast! So fierce!

Before the two "Heavenly Officials" could react, it whisked away the Six-Eared Macaque out of the heavenly gate.

Ignoring the horrific roars of those two "monsters" behind him, the macaque vanished from sight in an instant.

After a long while.

"Phew! Caught off guard, half of my avatar was shattered by the lightning.

Now, ’No-Life Buddha’, even if he wants to resist the sweet bait of a blood sacrifice to the Yunjing City dynasty, he can’t, can he?

When it’s time to reap the benefits, you two had better not forget to share a portion with me!"

The Six-Eared Macaque circulated his mana, completely cleansing the proliferating contamination from his body, before slowly opening his eyes to look at the man and woman beside him.

It was none other than "Cloud Lord" and "Great Fate".

And beneath them, with lightning still flashing and roaring continuously, was one of the mightiest "Taoist Inheritance Artifacts" from the "Taiyin Xuanbing Dao"—the "Five Thunders Car"!

One needed only to look at the lineup of these three people to know they were up to no good.

And indeed, they were.

After employing the strategy of "I anticipated your anticipation," they set the habitual "Thief" Victorious Fighting King up as bait, had the master of the Dou Department "Great Fate" personally obscure Heaven’s secrets, and relied on the Thunder Department head "Cloud Lord" to strike with all his might in a surprise attack.

Their counter-ambush on "No-Life Buddha" was a success.

Wisdom and unity were indeed the two indispensable magic treasures that had upheld the "Nine Soldiers" up to now.

Their purpose was simple: to find the most perfect power source for the "perpetual motion machine", the "Jade Mansion Thunder Pivot"—a "Heavenly Official" (Chapter 287)!

Reviewing all the "Heavenly Officials", there was none more suitable than the "No-Life Buddha" with his head bearing three large suns to stoke the furnace.

One side bearing a damaged avatar, the other presenting an unprecedented sweet temptation.

They did not believe the "No-Life Buddha" could withstand such a situation!

Hearing Six-Ear’s words, Ruan Hongxiao, clad in a flaming red dress with snow-white skin, exuding a faint aroma of wine, cast a sidelong glance at the macaque with an annoyed look.

"You, Old Six, still have the audacity to ask for a share? A hundred years ago, you ate a Green Peach, and now you’ve accumulated three, just happening to come across the divine skill ’Blood Rebirth.’

This is indeed a supreme divine skill for the path of ’Magic and Martial Unity.’

You’ve made such a great gain, yet you still covet what’s in our pot? Stop acting so smug with me!"

Cloud Lord also chimed in on the side.

"Great Fate is right.

How about you bring out that Green Peach, we each take one, and naturally, we can share a portion with you then."

Scratching itchily, the Six-Eared Macaque couldn’t help but feel complacent.

"Hahaha, the ’Blood Rebirth’ divine skill is mine to claim.

If I hadn’t chanced upon Star Lord Taibai swapping bodies with his divine partner and, disguised as the Seventh Fairy, snuck into the ’Immortal Peach Orchard,’ angering that land mouse’s Flat Peach Tree.

These three Green Peaches wouldn’t have been so easy to come by.

How could I bear to part with them for you?

I’m not interested in that ’Jade Mansion Thunder Pivot’ anyway."

As he spoke, he suddenly noticed the wide, surprised eyes of the two people opposite him, and immediately realized what he’d said, clamping his hand over his mouth.

Then he started waving his hands frantically as if trying to remedy his slip.

"No, no, no, I didn’t say anything, and you haven’t heard any secrets about Taibai.

We should drop the matter here, and you mustn’t tell anyone else! Otherwise, the high reputation of my predecessor would be completely ruined.

I had promised Gold Star Taibai that I would keep his secret!"

Great Fate and Cloud Lord exchanged looks, both seeing a playful tease in each other’s eyes, yet said aloud:

"Understood, understood, you know our integrity and moral fiber, don’t you? We absolutely won’t tell anyone else, rest assured!"

"That’s good, that’s good."

But the macaque couldn’t help scratching the back of his head, feeling that their words sounded uncomfortably familiar.

And integrity and moral fiber?

Did the "Nine Soldiers" really ever possess such high-end stuff?

Obviously.

The moment a secret is shared with a second person, it’s no longer a secret, and now that three were in the know?

It was clear that Star Lord Taibai’s reputation had been compromised! A real pity indeed!

The fate was sealed!
