Chapter 222 Could this be a calamity?!
Tongtian's starting point was good.
However, the doctrine of the Jie Sect is, after all, "education for all."
The disciples of the Tongtian Sect, and the disciples' disciples combined...
More than ten thousand!
Moreover, there are simply too many different kinds of these disciples.
He naturally enjoys traveling and making friends.
At the same time, there are also many disciples outside who manage various affairs such as settling karmic debts.
The quantity is enormous.
This is also one of the reasons why Laozi and Yun Shi set their sights on the Jie Sect!
Even now, with the power of a sage, urgently sending a message to his disciples,
It's also very difficult to reach every corner instantly!
In addition, some disciples are in special circumstances such as being in secret realms, dangerous places, or engaged in combat with others, or at a critical juncture in their seclusion.
Message reception became significantly slower!
Thus, in all the primordial wilderness,
A series of images, filled with bewilderment and gradually tinged with terror,
One after another, they unfolded.
In the southern continent of Jambudvipa, deep within the Yunmeng Great Marsh.
Qiu Shou Xian was transformed from a green-haired lion.
I am currently exploring the ruins of an ancient water palace with a fellow Daoist practitioner I've known for many years.
Just broke through a restriction.
They obtained two magical treasures that allowed them to escape the clutches of the witch clan.
I was having a great time!
Suddenly, a communication jade talisman in his bosom, engraved with the seal of the Jie Sect, vibrated violently.
It exuded the unique killing intent of the Tongtian Sect Master.
Qiu Shou Xian was suddenly startled and probed into it with his divine sense.
"The great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods has begun, and all immortals are in danger!"
All disciples of the Jie Sect, upon receiving this order, must immediately drop everything they are doing.
Return to Jin'ao Island at full speed! No mistakes allowed!
—A decree of the teacher's authority!
"A great calamity is about to begin? Ten thousand immortals will suffer?"
Qiu Shou Xian's enormous lion head shook, its copper bell-like eyes filled with confusion!
"Did Master make a mistake?"
Isn't the primordial world now a three-way power struggle between the underworld, Buddhism, and the heavenly court?
What kind of calamity is this? And why would ten thousand immortals suffer a calamity?
The rogue cultivators beside him also looked on curiously.
However, the undeniable sage's sword intent and the two words "strict order" on the jade talisman cannot be faked.
Qiu Shou Xian hesitated for a moment, then looked at the spiritual treasure he had just acquired.
He then looked into the depths of the secluded water mansion, where even greater opportunities might lie.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Fellow Daoist, the sect urgently summoned you, and there is also the sword intent of your master. It seems there is indeed something important."
I will not participate in any further exploration of this area for the time being!
We hope to meet again someday!
Having said that, he ignored the astonished look of the rogue cultivator.
It stirred up a gust of demonic wind and hurriedly fled towards the East Sea.
However, some doubts remained in his mind, so he did not push the speed to its limit.
Beiju Luzhou
An ancient, desolate mountain range shrouded in poisonous miasma and malevolent energy year-round.
Lady Shiji is currently in seclusion in her White Bone Cave on Skull Mountain.
Refine your own magical artifact.
Suddenly, the cave's protective barriers were forcefully pierced by a sharp sword intent.
The content of the sword intent immediately shook her to her core.
The hand seals became disordered.
The magic weapon I was refining was almost completely destroyed!
"The Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods?"
A look of surprise and doubt flashed across Lady Shiji's beautiful but pale face.
"I live a quiet life here, rarely venturing out to be tainted by karma."
How could he be the one destined for this calamity?
"Sending me a message seems a bit redundant!"
It was already difficult for her to transform into human form.
This led her to cultivate a cautious mindset, even though she felt that Tongtian's message was somewhat abrupt and unreasonable.
But she dared not disobey the imperial decree.
Immediately stop practicing and prepare to leave the seclusion.
However, this place is hundreds of millions of miles away from Jin'ao Island.
Although her cultivation level had already reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, she was still at that moment.
However, due to her footwork, flying is not her strong suit.
He then began to calculate the return journey time in his mind.
A sense of anxiety arose involuntarily.
......
Like the two of them, there are many others with lower cultivation levels or who live in remote areas.
Or something urgent is happening.
For example, when alchemy reaches a crucial moment, when weapon forging is halfway through, or when outer disciples or nominal disciples are confronting enemies or exploring the depths of a secret realm.
Upon receiving this sudden and frightening order to return,
The reactions varied greatly.
Some people didn't hesitate and immediately gave up everything they had.
Even if the losses were heavy, they rushed back as fast as they could.
Some people were skeptical and slow to act, intending to wait and see.
Some people did not receive the message in time at all.
Unaware of what was happening, they continued to do their insignificant tasks.
However, the aura of calamity had already been stirred.
Misfortune will not linger because of confusion and hesitation.
What's meant to happen will happen!
......
In the past, the sacred ground of the Jie Sect was bustling with activity, attracting countless immortals to pay homage.
It is now shrouded in a suffocatingly heavy atmosphere of oppression.
The island-protecting formation is now operating at full power.
The colorful sunset glow mixed with the chilling sword energy,
Enveloping the entire fairy island like an iron barrel,
They were terrified that outsiders would break in and harm their disciples!
On the island, the scenes of discussions, rituals, and playful activities that used to be commonplace have vanished without a trace.
Instead, there were squads of Jiejiao disciples patrolling with solemn expressions.
The air was no longer filled with a carefree, ethereal atmosphere.
Instead, it was an overwhelming, pungent smell of blood and an aura of impending doom.
Duobao and the others kept in touch using secret methods, urging the disciples who were away to return quickly!
The Tongtian Sect Leader sat high in the main seat, his face ashen.
Several blood-stained communication jade talismans floated in front of him.
Each one represents the life of a disciple of the Jie Sect.
In such a short time, it quietly perished outside.
Among these blood-stained jade pendants,
There was a disciple who was a fire spirit incarnation, sourcing alchemy materials from outside.
On their return journey, they encountered "heavenly fire" in the East China Sea, resulting in the complete destruction of their body and soul.
Only a wisp of true spirit remained, drifting aimlessly toward the direction of the Thirty-Three Heavens.
A disciple who was a manifestation of a strange stone and was in seclusion in a cave suddenly found his cave inexplicably collapsing.
He was buried alive by a mysterious "earthquake," his body turning to mud.
When the true spirit dissipated, it was guided away by a beam of clear light.
......
Furthermore, there are dozens of outer disciples scattered throughout the prehistoric world, protecting their respective regions.
One after another, various far-fetched and even absurd reasons were cited, such as "ineffective demon-slaying," "violation of heavenly rules," and "being entangled in karmic consequences."
Whether they were annihilated by "heavenly lightning" or attacked and killed by "mysterious masters," their true spirits, without exception, all drifted towards the newly established Heavenly Court!
After figuring out how these disciples perished,
A voice that seemed to reach the heavens echoed within Biyou Palace.
It was icy cold, yet contained a raging inferno.
I'm so angry I could grind my teeth!
At the same time, there is an indescribable heartache.
"Is this... an inevitable calamity?"
"To hell with my bad luck!"
Could this be a calamity?!
"Whose sea creatures can drown in the sea?!"
"My goodness!"
"My poor disciples of the Jie Sect!"
He really didn't expect it.
The calamity that befell these disciples of the Jie Sect came so quickly...
So bizarre, so ruthless!
Moreover, the goal is clear.
Anyone can see that.
This is clearly aimed at his disciples who are alone outside the sect!
