Chapter 153 All Saints Gather! Will the Demon Race Rise?
Not long after the arrival of the Sage of Heaven, turmoil arose once again in the void.
"boom!"
A vast and majestic divine power spread out.
Following the sound, they saw the Nine Dragons Incense Carriage breaking through the air.
The Primordial Celestial Venerable sat regally on his chariot, with the Golden Wheel of Merit behind him illuminating all the heavens.
Where the carriage stopped, purple mist filled the air, and a strange fragrance wafted through the air.
Upon seeing this, the celestial official in charge of rites immediately proclaimed:
"The Primordial Sage has arrived!"
Then, many powerful figures present bowed and paid their respects.
"The Primordial Sage has also arrived!"
"Another saint has arrived."
"..."
Everyone secretly marveled, realizing they had never participated in such a grand event before.
Upon seeing this, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi quickly stepped forward and bowed to the Primordial Sage:
"Welcome, Sage!"
Yuanshi Tianzun remained calm and didn't say anything. He simply nodded and walked straight toward Tongtian.
"Second Brother."
Upon seeing Yuanshi, Tongtian nodded with a smile.
Yuanshi smiled and said:
"Third brother, you got here quickly!"
"Now that we have both become saints, when you have time in the future, you should come back to my ancestral land of the Three Pure Ones for a visit."
Tongtian smiled slightly and hummed softly:
"Of course!"
With Niu Ben's help, the Three Pure Ones did not split up, and they lived in harmony with each other.
Earlier, when Taishang and Tongtian left Kunlun Mountain to seek their own Daoist temples, it was because Kunlun Mountain could not bear the fortune of the three great sages!
Even though the three of them have all become saints, they are still one family of the Three Pure Ones.
When Zhunti and Jieyin saw the arrival of the Primordial Sage, they looked up at him and smiled in a gesture of goodwill.
However, the Primordial Sage merely glanced at it twice before turning his gaze away.
The Primordial Sage didn't have much affection for these two Western sages either.
Seeing the indifference of the Primordial Sage, Jieyin and Zhunti immediately looked embarrassed.
If it were anyone else, and they dared to treat them like that, they would have already flew into a rage.
But this person is Yuanshi, and they dare not provoke him.
With the arrival of Yuanshi, two of the Three Pure Ones have been completed.
All the powerful figures present were filled with anticipation.
"Shouldn't the Supreme Sage have arrived by now?"
"The foremost of the Three Pure Ones!"
"The fact that the Sage Nuwa opened a new sacred site this time was a great honor for the demon race, as all the other sages attended in person."
"..."
Everyone sighed inwardly.
At this moment, the demons were all beaming with pride upon seeing such a grand event.
"Our demon race shall rise!"
"I ask you, in this primordial world, what race can compare to my demon race?"
"Right now, before the Supreme Sage arrives..."
"Yuanshi and Tongtian Sheng, two of the Three Pure Ones, have come; Taishang will surely come in person too!"
"..."
Then, everyone eagerly awaited the arrival of the Supreme Sage.
"boom!"
Just then, a violent tremor suddenly arose in the sky.
Seeing this, all eyes outside the South Heavenly Gate converged, and everyone thought that the Supreme Sage was about to descend.
Upon closer inspection, a young man dressed in a black robe stepped out from the tear in the void and proclaimed in a clear voice:
"Niu Ben, a disciple of the Renjiao School, comes to offer his congratulations on behalf of his revered Master Taiqing."
As he spoke, Niu Ben appeared calm and composed, his sleeves fluttering slightly, exuding a natural Taoist charm.
Everyone present was surprised to see that the newcomer was not the Supreme Sage.
After all, they were all prepared to welcome the sage, but who would have thought that the one who showed up would be the Supreme Lord's chief disciple, Niu Ben!
"Um?"
"What's going on?"
"Didn't the Supreme Sage personally come?"
"Only his disciples were sent to attend the ceremony."
"What a pity! I thought I would be able to see the Six Sages of the Heavens gathered together today!"
"..."
Many powerful figures sighed inwardly.
To everyone's surprise, the Supreme Sage did not come to the Demon Clan's Heavenly Court.
At this moment, the demon race's celestial official, recovering from his astonishment, quickly pursed his lips and proclaimed:
"Niu Ben, the chief disciple of the Supreme Sage, has arrived!"
Then, Niu Ben descended from the sky and landed outside the South Heavenly Gate.
Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi exchanged a glance, a hint of displeasure in their hearts.
After all, this is the new sacred site opened by the sage Nuwa.
In their view, all saints should give face to the saint Nuwa and come to witness the ceremony.
But the Supreme Sage did not arrive.
Of course, although they were somewhat displeased, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi still appeared to be welcoming on the surface.
"Welcome, Fellow Daoist Niu Ben!"
Di Jun smiled and looked at Niu Ben as he spoke.
Niu Ben was naturally familiar with Donghuang Taiyi.
They had previously joined forces with Niu Ben to destroy Dong Wang Gong's Purple Mansion Immortal Court.
Niu Ben nodded slightly, exchanged greetings, and then stood up and approached Yuanshi and Tongtian.
Upon approaching, Niu Ben bowed to the two men.
"Second Uncle, Third Uncle!"
Upon hearing this, both Yuanshi and Tongtian showed satisfied smiles.
Both of them highly valued this disciple of the Supreme Lord, regarding him as their own disciple.
Earlier, when the Purple Mansion Celestial Court's army attacked the Bull Clan of the Ten Thousand Mountains, it happened that Niu Ben was traveling through the prehistoric world.
Yuanshi then dispatched his disciples to the Niu tribe to provide assistance.
"You brat, it's been so long, I didn't expect your cultivation to have reached the Quasi-Saint level!"
Yuan Shi said calmly, but his gaze toward Niu Ben was full of admiration.
Before Niu Ben could reply, Tongtian echoed:
"As expected of the eldest brother's disciple!"
As he spoke, Tongtian reached out and patted Niu Ben lightly on the shoulder, his expression full of approval.
It should be noted that among the Three Pure Ones, Tongtian and Yuanshi had many disciples.
On the contrary, Taishang only accepted two disciples, Niu Ben and Xuandu.
Now that they saw that Niu Ben's cultivation had reached the Quasi-Saint level, Yuanshi and Tongtian were naturally surprised!
After all, the strongest of their disciples is only a Great Luo Golden Immortal, and there aren't many of them.
Just then, Zhunti and Jieyin, who were not far away, also turned their gazes to Niu Ben.
Upon this glance, a strange glint flashed in both of their eyes.
"snort!"
"This cow is certainly putting on an innocent act!"
Zhunti harbored resentment inwardly.
Looking back, during the great battle between the demon race and the Purple Mansion Celestial Court, he and Jieyin ravaged a large number of lives in the Purple Mansion Continent.
At the same time, Zhunti also sent his disciple Kasyapa to take advantage of the chaos to go to the treasure vault in the Purple Mansion in mid-air.
In this way, both living beings and treasures were obtained.
It can be said that it has completely emptied out the essence of the Purple Mansion.
Who would have thought that just as Kasyapa began collecting treasures from the Purple Mansion Treasury, Niu Ben caught him red-handed.
After a brief exchange, Kasyapa was no match for Niuben and had no choice but to retreat in defeat!
Others may not know, but Jieyin and Zhunti are well aware that most of the treasures looted by the Purple Mansion Immortal Court have fallen into Niu Ben's hands.
For this reason, the two men naturally harbored resentment towards Niu Ben.
Unfortunately, they cannot reveal this matter.
After all, his betrayal of the Purple Mansion Immortal Court was already criticized by many.
Seeing that Jieyin and Zhunti were looking him over, Niu Ben remained calm and gave them a natural smile.
Just then, Tongtian's gaze shifted and landed on Niu Ben, and he asked probingly:
"Niu Ben" (牛犇).
Why didn't my older brother come?
