Chapter 67: A disagreement leads to action

Chapter 67: Fighting at the drop of a hat

For three thousand years, Guangchengzi had not woken up even once. Except for the first thousand years spent consolidating his foundation, the next two thousand years were spent trying to figure out the mysteries of time and space.

"It's easier said than done. If you really want to see the secret of time and space, you either have to obtain the time and space spiritual treasure, or you can only grind it slowly."

After the three thousand years, Guangchengzi woke up, shook his head slightly, and then turned into a ray of golden light and rushed towards the Bajing Palace. At the same time, he did not forget to take away the Taiqing Talisman, as this was something he had to return to Laozi.

Although he didn't expect to comprehend the true meaning of time and space in just two thousand years, he still felt a little disappointed that he didn't comprehend anything.

Guangchengzi can naturally travel through space and manipulate time. Not to mention when he is in the Daluo realm, he can do it even in the Taiyi realm.

But understanding the secrets of time and space is one thing, and traveling through and manipulating time and space is another.

The latter is equivalent to understanding that one plus one equals two, while the former is equivalent to knowing why one plus one equals two?

Why does one plus one equal two?

Because it is equal to two!
It is equivalent to knowing not only the fact but also the reason. If you want to transcend time and space, you must know what time and space are. If you don’t even know what time and space are, how can you transcend it?
Guangchengzi was stuck at this step and had no way of understanding those things. Even if he had some ideas, they were just ideas and did not count for anything at all.

Although he was depressed, Guangchengzi stopped the golden light when he approached the Bajing Palace, and walked towards the palace. He shouted outside the palace: "Disciple Guangchengzi, I pay my respects to Master Uncle."

After a moment, a calm voice sounded: "Come in."

The meaning is very clear, and it is in line with Lao Tzu's straightforward character.

Guangchengzi had anticipated this, so he pushed the door open calmly and immediately saw the cramped space and an old man sitting on a cushion.

But unlike the doubts he had when he entered the Bajing Palace before, Guangchengzi had already entered the Daluo realm at this time, and naturally he saw the many mysteries contained in the Bajing Palace.

The space here is neither cramped nor too cramped. It seems to be only a few meters in size, but in fact it contains the entire space-time of heaven and earth, the vast universe, and the four directions of the universe. It can accommodate the four seas, take in the East, and hold the West in its hands. It is so big that it is incredible and unimaginable.

It’s just that Guangchengzi thought it was only a few zhang in size, so it is only a few zhang in size. But when you see its real size, you will know how huge it is.

But as long as his state of mind changes, this place will immediately become several meters or even several feet in size. It can be seen that Lao Tzu's cultivation has reached an indescribable state. At least Guangchengzi can't see any flaws. It is simply a perfect state of mind like the way of heaven.

Laozi's face was calm, and he let Guangchengzi look around. Until Guangchengzi came to his senses, he bowed and said, "My disciple was distracted for a moment, please forgive me, Master."

Laozi nodded calmly and said, "It's a good thing that you can break through to the Daluo realm. You will also become one of the only three Daluo Jinxian in Kunlun Mountain."

Only three?

Although Guangchengzi bowed down, his mind was extremely clear.

Laozi did not accept any disciples, not even any boys, and Yuanshi Tianzun only accepted him, so the other two Daluo Jinxians naturally only had Tongtian’s disciples, and the first one to bear the brunt was Duobao.

Guangchengzi was not surprised at all that Duobao could achieve Daluo, and he thought it was a very normal thing.

After all, when he was a Golden Immortal, Duobao was about to break through to Daluo, but he didn't know who the third Daluo Golden Immortal was?
Laozi added: "In addition to Duobao, Wudang also achieved Daluo not long ago, which is a cause for celebration."

It turned out to be her.

Guangchengzi thought of that calm woman, who was also one of the rare moral immortals in the Shangqing lineage. She usually lived in seclusion and was devoted to comprehending the great Dao. Unexpectedly, she also achieved the Daluo realm.

After being surprised, Guang Chengzi returned to normal. He simply held up the Taiqing Divine Talisman with both hands and said, "Disciple has come here specially to return the treasure and thank Master Uncle for giving me the treasure earlier."

Laozi did not make any move, and the Taiqing Divine Talisman disappeared spontaneously. Then a cushion appeared under Guangchengzi, and he said, "Sit down."

Guangchengzi sat down without hesitation. Unlike Yuanshi Tianzun who valued etiquette, Laozi cared more about expressing himself concisely and clearly. Instead of saying countless words of praise and polite gestures, it would be better to sit down quickly and not waste time. This way, Laozi would be happier.

He was very good at judging people. Even if there were disciples in the Shangqing lineage who said that Guangchengzi only knew how to flatter, he had to flatter in the right way.

As expected, Laozi didn't say anything. He just opened his mouth and began to talk about the great Dao: "Inaction is action, action is inaction, movement and stillness are one mind, conquer the disordered mind..."

Although Guangchengzi was somewhat surprised at how fast Laozi moved, he quickly entered a state of enlightenment. An acre-sized auspicious cloud floated out spontaneously, the three flowers of heaven, earth and man swayed slightly, and all kinds of spiritual treasures emitted divine light. Among them, the Wordless Heavenly Book moved the fastest.

I saw that this Taoist book was constantly rustling, with countless famous sayings of the Tao engraved in it, leaving it for Guangchengzi to read in the future.

Laozi talked for a hundred years before he slowly stopped. Guangchengzi slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were indifferent and inaction, obviously affected by too much inaction, but then they returned to their original color. "Okay, go."

Before Guangchengzi could speak, Laozi had already driven him away. Although he was suspicious that Laozi had asked him to come just to preach, he still bowed and saluted, and then left the Bajing Palace.

As soon as Guangchengzi walked out of the gate of Bajing Palace, he found several people waiting outside. One of them was familiar to him, as it was the Holy Mother Wu Dang whom he had met before. As for the others, he did not recognize them.

But he didn't need to recognize her, so he just nodded slightly to the Holy Mother Wu Dang and then prepared to ascend.

Unexpectedly, one of the monks with long ears suddenly said, "Brother Guangchengzi, you walked so fast, don't you want to face us or dare not?"

After hearing what this person said, Guangchengzi's steps that were about to fly to the sky suddenly stopped. He could pretend that he didn't hear the other words, but he couldn't do this anymore.

Guang Chengzi turned his head slightly and looked at the monk with rabbit ears. He looked him up and down and said calmly, "You are a long-eared rabbit, who is lucky enough to be the attendant immortal of Master Tongtian. Instead of going up to Master Tianxin to repay his kindness, you are swaying here and even speaking nonsense. Do you want me to use the authority of Yuqing Senior Disciple to punish you like Jin Guangxian did?"

After hearing Guangchengzi's words, the people here were all filled with indignation. Although they did not go to the extent of cursing or scolding, they did not look happy either.

One of the men, who had a long beard and a black face, wore a black robe and a silk belt around his waist, took out a sword, pointed it at Guang Chengzi and shouted, "Don't be so arrogant here. Even if Junior Brother Jin Guangxian made a mistake, it's not your turn to blame him.

You are so reckless. Today, Master has asked us to take you to the Green Tour Palace. You'd better not resist. Otherwise, please use Master's magic weapon. It will be embarrassing for you and Uncle Yuanshi."

When the silent Wu Dang Shengmu heard Wu Yunxian mention Yuanshi Tianzun, her expression suddenly changed and she immediately said, "Junior Brother Wu Yunxian! It is a great sin to offend Tianzun!"

Then she immediately looked at Guangchengzi and opened her mouth to speak, but Guangchengzi didn't want to talk to her anymore. His face had instantly turned gloomy the moment Wuyunxian offended Yuanshi Tianzun. Even the heaven and earth became lifeless, and an extremely murderous intent was locked on these people.

He has been clearing out those people who have been using the Zhuxian sword energy in the West for thousands of years. Even though he has not caused any killings, there is still a lot of murderous aura on his body.

What other killing force could be more murderous than the sword energy of Zhu Xian?

Just arousing some murderous intent at this moment is enough to make these people change color.

Guang Chengzi snorted coldly, "I was too lazy to argue with you at first, but since Master Tongtian asked me to go, it is only natural for me to go. However, you spoke ill of me and offended my master, which is hard for me to tolerate. Well, it seems that I have not taken action for a long time, so you dare to offend Tianzun here. I must teach you a painful lesson so that you will remember it."

But his words also aroused the anger of these people. After all, he was a disciple favored by Tongtian. Even if he was a murderer, he still had some strength.

This murderous aura alone could not scare them.

However, this is exactly the effect Guangchengzi wanted. Relying solely on the intimidation of murderous intent will not make them remember the pain. They must be hit hard with the stick to make them remember the consequences of being too vicious in their words. Only then can they learn their lesson.

Holy Mother Wu Dang frowned. She had never expected that just because Tong Tian asked them to invite Guang Chengzi to go to Biyou Palace, it would actually evolve into a fight.

There was nothing wrong with Chang'er Dingguangxian and Wuyunxian. After all, they had a very good relationship with Jinguangxian. What was wrong with standing up for their friends?

Guangchengzi was right. No matter how angry Wuyunxian was, he could not offend Yuanshi Tianzun. As Yuanshi Tianzun's eldest disciple, how could he tolerate such humiliation?
It was a pity that they were in different positions, and she could do nothing about it. She could only sigh secretly and get ready, ready to take action at any time.

That’s right, after all, Holy Mother Wu Dang is Tong Tian’s direct disciple, and she cannot join forces with outsiders to deal with her own junior brother under any circumstances.

Guangchengzi is not an outsider, but compared with the disciples of the Shangqing lineage, he is an outsider.

During the confrontation between several people, Chang'er Dingguangxian, who had the weakest cultivation, was the first to lose his patience. He immediately took out a medicine pestle and hit Guangchengzi hard.

Guangchengzi sneered. He was too lazy to even make a move. He just waved his sleeves and a snow-white sika deer jumped out. The deer had black eyes and a pure and powerful aura. It actually had the cultivation of a Golden Immortal, not inferior to the Chang'er Dingguang Immortal. It was exactly the Liangyi.

It makes sense. Thanks to Guangchengzi, Liangyi listened to the great teachings of the two Hunyuan Gods in succession. Even if he didn't understand much, he still gained a lot of benefits and achieved immortality.

The two of them were in tune with each other. As soon as Liang Yi appeared, he crashed into the pestle. He was carrying a jade box on his body. The box opened a gap slightly, and a suction force instantly shone on the pestle.

Chang'er Dingguangxian's face changed, and he immediately used his magic power to try to get the pestle back. However, the pestle only paused slightly and was immediately sucked away by the treasure box.

After sucking away the pestle, the treasure box closed immediately, and then just shook slightly, and the long-eared Dingguangxian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale.

He said in disbelief, "This is a mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure! I collected thousands of spiritual medicines, tens of thousands of spiritual fruits, and a hundred thousand earth veins, and combined them with a ten-million-year-old immortal stone from Kunlun Mountain. I have been refining it for ten thousand years. Even Taiyi Jinxian cannot damage it. How could it be destroyed like this!"
