He searched everywhere and hid.

Li Changshou naturally understood that as long as the Void Bodhi entered the five continents, he should be watched by the Heavenly Dao.

However, there was only a very small chance that the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor would directly kill the Void Bodhi. This originated from the “arrogance” in the Dao Ancestor’s bones that treated all living beings as ants.

The Dao Ancestor had stood at the peak of the Three Realms for too long.

It had been so long that the Dao Ancestor was used to having everything under his control. As a result, he lacked the caution brought about by “fear”.

Li Changshou understood that this caution and thoroughness were the most important trump cards he had to play against the Dao Ancestor.

Trump card: Steadiness.

The Void Bodhi secretly circled to the West Ocean from the South Ocean. After entering the Aparagodānīya Continent, he completely hid and quietly approached the spiritual mountain.

His face always had a few worries that could not be dispersed. Every time, he would feel hesitant. When he looked at the spiritual mountain, which had changed, he would always feel a little helpless and angry.

His acting was very natural.

Li Changshou did not know if his acting skills would be useful. It depended on whether the Heavenly Dao would keep watching him.

Based on the principle that he would rather believe it than not, he still persisted.

After searching for half a day, Li Changshou made the Void Bodhi stop in a valley.

This place was not far from the spiritual mountain. At that moment, he was a little hesitant. He did not know how to enter or if he should.

After all, when the Buddhists seized power back then, the Void Bodhi chose to escape and not firmly support the Saint of Receiving. Now that he had no other choice, he would feel a little guilty when he came to find the Saint of Receiving to undo the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.

In fact, Li Changshou had diverted some of his attention to the other two fake bodies.

The negative karma demon of the second fake body continued to observe the movements of Huaguo Mountain.

The Seven Saints had already violated the taboo with their names. At that moment, they were fighting the Heavenly Courts.

Although he did not shout the words’ Anti-Heaven ‘directly, it was written on his face.

The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals led by Li Jing were finally prepared to fight the demons of Huaguo Mountain. Most of the dark clouds in the sky dissipated, revealing layers of figures.

Li Changshou sensed carefully and sighed in his heart.

There were no Immortal Bean Soldiers.

In the following battle, the Heavenly Soldiers would have to use their lives to fight the demon soldiers.

How can there be no casualties in war?

Li Changshou had always thought of minimizing his losses while ensuring victory.

However, the current Heavenly Courts were no longer as cautious. They had already neglected or forgotten the considerable role of the Immortal Bean Soldiers in large-scale battles.

This should be related to the Dao Ancestor changing the memories of living beings.

Li Changshou felt helpless.

The morale of the demon soldiers on Huaguo Mountain was high.

Due to the continuous arrival of other demon monkey subordinates, there were many more monkey soldiers in Huaguo Mountain than before. However, at that moment, the monkey soldiers could not be considered the main force of the demon soldiers of Huaguo Mountain.

The demonic shadows that filled the entire mountain had almost gathered 60% of the demons’ combat strength.

A million people gathered and ignited the Heaven Shaking Fire!

Although the demons had been arranged by the Heavenly Dao the entire time, they could be considered hot-blooded at that moment. It represented the weak resistance of living beings to the Heavenly Dao.

Li Changshou did not feel much about such a magnificent scene.

The main characters of this world were the human race. The current Heavenly Courts represented the interests of the human race. The human race was a race protected by the Heavenly Dao and also a race that followed the heavens.

It was not because the human race had given up on fighting with the heavens and the earth.

On the contrary,

It was precisely because the human race indeed had the strength to fight against the heavens and the earth that they were recruited by the Heavenly Dao to be a large race protected by the Heavenly Dao. Although the Three Sovereigns of the human race lacked the Fire Emperor, the foundation of the Fire Cloud Cave was still there.

The Heavenly Dao wanted to eliminate the demons. Huaguo Mountain was the final counterattack of the demons.

In fact, the demons had another way out. They could lower their heads to the human race and seek peace in the Fire Cloud Cave. They could say that they had to face the Heavenly Dao.

However, the demons wanted to kill all the humans in the world. They could not do that.

Moreover, most of the demons who had such good eyesight had been killed by Li Changshou previously.

At that moment, what awaited the demons was only a lonely path.

The battle of Huaguo Mountain—the last celebration of the demons.

Compared to the demons, Li Changshou was more concerned about Sun Wukong’s current state.

However, the negative karma demon that he was “driving” could not brazenly come into contact with Sun Wukong. He could only use his immortal senses to look at the unguarded Water Curtain Cave from afar…

Sun Wukong was already drunk and asleep.

He was really ambitious.

“This monkey head.” Li Changshou chuckled in his heart. He left some attention on the upcoming “battle” of Huaguo Mountain and shifted his attention away from No. 3.

No.3 was disguised as the Heaven Immortal realm cultivator of the Middle Continent Immortal Sect.

At that moment, the fake body had already arrived near the north of the North Continent. He released his immortal senses and could see the place where the Magi of the North Continent lived.

This place had become a rare paradise in the Three Realms.

The continuous pine forest blocked the cold wind of the North Ocean. Smoke could be seen rising from the snow-covered land.

In the villages at the edge of the places where the Magi gathered, the young children ran barefoot in the snow. The older old man was handling all kinds of food to replenish his vitality.

The young Magi were hunting and fishing in the sea. Many female Magi were farming in the fields and cultivating some cold-resistant food.

In general, life was stable and rich.

Li Changshou only took a few glances from afar and retreated quietly. He felt much more at ease.

The Magi were a rather special race in the Primordial World.

They were born from the bloodline of the Pangu God. The twelve Magi were born with the authority to control the Dao laws of the world.

The demons were there to fight the Magi. They were secretly guided by the Dao Ancestor and gathered the power of all living beings.

In the ancient times, the Magi at their peak were enemies with the living beings of the Primordial World. They even fought until the latter could not breathe.

Looking at the history of the Magi, he could actually see a hidden path.

One was the path of the Dao Ancestor destroying the Magi.

From the three Great Magi-Demon Tribulations to the battle between Chi You and Emperor Xuanyuan, the Magi declined again and again. In the end, they completely fell off the altar of the number one race in the Primordial World. Before Li Changshou came into contact with them, he was almost schemed against by the demons to the point of extinction.

That was the Dao Ancestor’s ability to plot.

After the ancient battle, the remaining demon factions were actually left behind by the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor to suppress the Magi.

Thinking about that, Li Changshou could only sigh softly in his heart. He used an escape technique and quickly left the vicinity of the North Ocean to go to the east of the North Continent to pick some herbs.

Although No. 3 was an unknown Heaven Immortal Qi Refinement cultivator, he still had to conceal himself.

Li Changshou felt much more at ease when he saw the Magi.

He did not want to use the Magi to fight against the Heavenly Dao. However, before deciding the outcome of the battle with the Dao Ancestor, he came to pay attention to the Magi tribes of the North Continent that had once fought side by side.

After confirming that the bloodline of the Pangu God was still in the world and that there were signs of prosperity and continuous recovery, Li Changshou indeed found a sense of security.

In the next half a month…

The No.1 fake Void Bodhi hid near the spiritual mountain. It seemed to be hesitating and could not find a way to appear.

In fact, Li Changshou was just waiting for a perfect opportunity. He could enter and leave the spiritual mountain freely.

The second fake body negative karma demon was near Huaguo Mountain. He watched the battle between the Heavenly Soldiers and the demon soldiers. The seven Saints of the demon race had defeated the Heavenly Courts’ attacks several times.

At that moment, there were not many casualties on both sides. However, the demons firmly occupied Huaguo Mountain. The seven Saints’ flags stood firmly. They had indeed won this round.

On the Heavenly Courts’ side, Li Jing had just tasted defeat. However, he was still calm and composed. He only deployed troops and kept clashing with the demons of Huaguo Mountain.

Li Changshou reckoned that it should be the fake Taibai Jinxing who was secretly giving orders to Li Jing.

Li Changshou naturally knew how powerful the battle power of the Heavenly Courts’ battle formation was. It would only take an hour to destroy the demons of Huaguo Mountain.

He was just sneaking around the demons.

At that moment, No. 3’s fake body had already left the North Continent with some poisonous wounds and a large number of spiritual herbs. He entered the East Continent and headed towards the Immortal Du Sect.

When he arrived within thousands of kilometers of the Immortal Du Sect, Li Changshou immediately felt… extremely close.

His paper effigies had once covered the depths of the land.

His footsteps filled the various mountains, and he did not leave a single drop of the spiritual roots and spiritual herbs there.

His figure had once appeared in various forests, searching for old trees with abundant spiritual energy, leaving behind countless vengeful spirits.

It was here that he became known as a “paper cutter”.

It was also here that he had become a disciple of Ren School.

Li Changshou controlled No. 3 and hid on a mountain thousands of kilometers away from the Immortal Du Sect. He activated a few layers of array formations and created a few immortal power barriers. He began to heal openly.

2,000 kilometers around the Immortal Sect could be considered a “private place”. However, the arrival of the Heaven Immortal Qi Refinement cultivator did not attract the attention of the Immortal Du Sect.

That familiar vigilance was still as loose as he remembered…

Li Changshou spread his immortal senses and easily penetrated the thin and smooth mountain-protecting array formation of the Immortal Du Sect. He “saw” the situation inside.

The Heaven-Breaking Peak stood tall. There were layers of immortal shadows on it, and there was the aura of the Golden Immortal realm again.

On a closer look, it was actually a Grand Elder who had made a breakthrough and advanced to an ordinary Golden Immortal combat unit. Jiu Yushi was only at the late-stage of the Perfected Immortal realm.

The strength of the newly-advanced Golden Immortal Elder was about 0.9 Ji Wuyou.

There were not many disciples from the various peaks. They were still at the standard when he left.

The original site of the Little Qiong Peak had already become a lake surrounded by mountains on all sides. There were lush forests around it, and it had become the “holy land” for the young Qi Refinement cultivators in the sect to promote their Dao companions.

He wanted to take a look at Pill Tripod Peak and the Immortal Downpour Peak.

He probed the Hundred Mortal Hall and saw the familiar faces of the “elders”.

I won’t expose it. I really won’t.

Li Changshou nodded in satisfaction. He asked No. 3 to recuperate and pay attention to the situation of the Immortal Du Sect, in case the Dao Ancestor got desperate at the last moment.

He had to be wary of that.

He had to wait.

When Sun Wukong wreaked havoc in the Heaven Palace, when the Kun Peng, which had secretly received his orders, approached the Primordial World, when the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao revealed small “buttocks”.

His chances of winning were ninety-seven-five percent.

Just a little more… Jade Emperor.

Hence, three months later…

…

Li Changshou did not expect Li Jing to be so patient.

The Eight Tribes’ Heavenly Soldiers began to take turns to fight. Each of them sent out 200,000 troops. They treated Huaguo Mountain as a place to train their troops. A huge battle would occur every two days.

To the demons and Heavenly Soldiers, the trick of tiring one’s enemies out was almost useless.

The demons became more and more excited. The Heavenly Soldiers were also gradually angry. Both sides were really angry.

Li Changshou felt ashamed.

He did not know how Li Jing did it. Every battle could cause the Heavenly Soldiers to suffer the least casualties and exchange for more casualties. Every time, he could also make the Heavenly Soldiers lose and retreat, stimulating the demons’ desire to fight.

It would be fine if it happened once or twice.

The problem was that Li Jing had been fishing for demons for three months. He had fought dozens of times, big and small, but he still maintained that situation.

That was a little scary.

The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals could not help but feel dissatisfied. However, Li Jing firmly suppressed them.

However, more and more demons on Huaguo Mountain could not help but shout the slogan to attack the South-Heaven Gate and the East Heaven Gate.

He was rather arrogant.

It was as if the ancient Demon Court was about to reestablish itself. Thousands of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals would appear tomorrow.

Emotions had already overwhelmed the demons. Many ancient demons were even wrapped in these emotions and became the solid support of the seven Saints.

The Great Sage of Pingtian, the Bull Demon King, had been dilly-dallying for two months. In the end, he still brought a group of ox demons to help. However, the old ox did not contribute. Every time there was a battle, he would focus on protecting himself and would not kill the Heavenly Soldiers.

Li Changshou observed something interesting. Apart from the monkey demons, no other demons could enter the Water Curtain Cave.

Sun Wukong moved his “throne” to the mountainside. Every day, he would drink, fight, and eat bananas. He would brag to his brothers and meet the old demons of various sects. He was quite happy.

He should have understood many things.

Li Changshou sighed in his heart. He felt that his master was a little unqualified. He could not treat Monkey the way his teacher treated him.

However, he had no choice. The game between him and the Dao Ancestor was already the most important confrontation between living beings and the Heavenly Dao. He could not afford to make any mistakes.

He could only let Sun Wukong suffer temporarily and treat it as a setback for him.

In the Dao Ancestor’s script, Sun Wukong’s life was not in danger. There was no need to worry about his safety.

When should he let the Void Bodhi go to the spiritual mountain?

Li Changshou analyzed it carefully in his heart for a while. He felt that he had to wait for the monkey to be ordered by the Heavenly Courts. Then, he would go to the spiritual mountain and look for an opportunity to become the Golden Cicada.

It was not a big deal to wait for three to five years.

However, just as that thought surfaced in Li Changshou’s heart, he suddenly felt a Dao rune float past his spirit platform. He sighed in his heart and heard the Void Bodhi’s extremely familiar voice.

It was Saint Jie Yin.

“Bodhi, when did you come? Come over.”

Li Changshou’s heart twitched.

He had previously considered that Saint Jie Yin would discover his whereabouts. After all, he had been strolling near the spiritual mountain. He also thought that the Saint who received him might take the initiative to call him over.

However, he did not expect that Jie Yin would take the initiative to such an extent!

Is the Great Sage feeling vexed? Does he want to complain to his disciple?

Li Changshou did not dare to delay. The Void Bodhi appeared from the valley and bowed to the spiritual mountain.

Golden light flickered in front of him as a golden door opened in the universe.

Li Changshou focused his attention and rode the Void Bodhi in. He took a step into the rich Dao runes of the Saint and entered the residence of the Receiving Saint.

His Dao heart returned to peace. There were no more distracting thoughts in his heart.

It was a straw hut. Looking at the scenery outside the window, it was at the back mountain of the spiritual mountain.

Saint Jie Yin was sitting cross-legged on the meditation cushion in a white robe. He was smiling at the Void Bodhi.

The power of the Heavenly Dao?

Li Changshou keenly sensed something, but he did not expose it.

“Greetings, Teacher.”

The Void Bodhi lowered his head and bowed. He sighed softly and did not know what to say.

Saint Jie Yin raised his hand and pointed out a meditation cushion. He placed it in front of Li Changshou and said slowly, “Sit. Don’t worry. Although this place is monitored by the Heavenly Dao, I can still protect you.”

“Yes.”

Li Changshou agreed and grasped the various habits of the Void Bodhi. He sat cross-legged in front of the Saint and lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

Saint Jie Yin chuckled again and asked, “Could it be that you can’t let go of your Dao Realm?”

“Teacher, I have experienced many dangers and finally…”

“Don’t think too much.” Saint Jie Yin said warmly, “The Heavenly Dao is like that, and so is the Dao Ancestor. The higher your Dao realm is, the more dangerous it is. If you cross that line and make them fear you, you will not be far from killing them. Your current situation is actually not bad. At least, it will not arouse their suspicion.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

“But Teacher, sigh, I don’t know what to say.”

Saint Jie Yin slowly closed his eyes. The smile on his lips gradually disappeared. In the end, he only sighed softly.

“Do you really want to undo the Dao Realm?”
