Chapter 119 The Master of the Intercepting Sect, the Master of Heaven
Soon, a group of disciples of the Jie Sect arrived at Biyou Palace under the guidance of Daoist Duobao.
Stepping into the main hall of Biyou Palace felt like entering another universe.
Chen Changsheng looked around and found that the scene around him was not an ordinary palace, but an endless starry sky.
In addition, chaotic air currents hung down like silk ribbons throughout the hall, and earth, water, fire, and wind were created and evolved in the void, just as if they were demonstrating the profound truth of the beginning of heaven and earth.
In the void at the center of that chaos, a figure sat cross-legged.
This person looked extremely young, with a handsome face, and his brows exuded a sharp and unrestrained spirit that seemed to have seized the heavenly way and formed his own path.
It is the Supreme Saint of the Three Pure Ones, representing the vigor of "youth" and the sharp will to "intercept the heavens"—the Master of the Heavens.
Four ancient immortal swords floated behind Tongtian, each emanating a chilling aura of killing intent.
These are the Four Swords of Zhuxian: Zhuxian, Luxian, Xianxian, and Juexian.
These four swords, merely hovering there, were enough to make one's heart pound with tension.
It seems that with just a thought from Tongtian, he could reopen the chaotic universe and reset the earth, water, fire, and wind.
"He...he is the Sage of Heaven?"
"Truly extraordinary!"
Chen Changsheng stared at Tongtian, his mind reeling.
Indeed, the saintly aura emanating from Tongtian was extraordinary.
In particular, the surrounding sword intent of the Four Swords of Zhuxian adds a chilling and murderous aura.
Even now that he has broken through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, he still feels an urge to prostrate himself before Tongtian, this saint.
Just as Chen Changsheng was lost in thought, Duobao and the other disciples of the Jie Sect had already bowed and paid homage to Tongtian.
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Grandmaster!"
"..."
In an instant, everyone knelt down in worship.
After all, the person in front of him was the founder of the Jie Sect and one of the Six Sages of the Heavens.
Upon seeing this, Chen Changsheng quickly snapped out of his daze and knelt down to pay his respects to Tongtian.
"Um."
Upon seeing this, Tongtian, who was seated in the void, gave a soft "hmm" and said indifferently:
"Get up, everyone!"
His voice was very peaceful, but when it reached the ears of many disciples of the Jie Sect, it carried the unique Taoist charm of a sage, like the voice of the Great Tao.
Then, everyone stood up respectfully.
The Sage Tongtian's gaze flickered as he swept his eyes over the group of Jie Sect disciples in front of the hall.
Upon receiving Tongtian's gaze, many disciples of the Jie Sect trembled in their hearts.
It felt to them that with just a glance, Tongtian seemed to have seen through their very souls.
"what?"
Just then, the Sage of Tongtian let out a soft exclamation, his gaze falling directly on a figure.
Upon seeing this, all the disciples of the Jie Sect present followed Tongtian's gaze and looked at Chen Changsheng.
"What happened?"
"Why is Master's gaze lingering on this child?"
"Is that Senior Brother Zhao Gongming's disciple?"
"It seems I've caught the teacher's attention!"
"..."
Seeing the Sage Tongtian scrutinizing Chen Changsheng like this, everyone present hesitated inwardly.
"this?"
Chen Changsheng was taken aback when he saw this.
Unexpectedly, Tongtian actually looked at him specifically.
"What's going on?"
"Could it be that the sage has seen through my secret?"
"That shouldn't be happening!"
"Even a sage couldn't possibly know that I come from another time and space, could he?"
Chen Changsheng muttered to himself, not understanding why Tongtian was suddenly looking at him with such a gaze.
At this moment, Zhao Gongming, who was standing in front of Chen Changsheng, quickly stepped forward and bowed to Tongtian, saying:
"Master."
"This young man is my newly accepted personal disciple, Chen Changsheng!"
"Since Master is giving a sermon, I thought I would bring him here to listen to the Great Dao."
While saying this, Zhao Gongming was actually very nervous inside.
He wondered if Tongtian was displeased because he had taken it upon himself to bring Chen Changsheng to Biyou Palace to listen to the Dao.
After all, this Heavenly Preaching Ceremony is not something that just any disciple of the Jie Sect can come to.
Just after Zhao Gongming finished his introduction, Chen Changsheng stepped forward and bowed to Tongtian.
"Disciple Chen Changsheng greets Grandmaster!"
Upon hearing this, Tongtian nodded slightly, his gaze still fixed on Chen Changsheng.
His expression appeared calm and composed, but deep within his heart, an unusual turmoil was brewing.
"strangeness."
"I cannot even see this child clearly."
Why is its destiny so murky and unclear?
Tongtian hesitated inwardly.
The reason he paid special attention to Chen Changsheng was that, after scanning him just now, he found that he couldn't see through Chen Changsheng.
The feeling that Tongtian had foreseen Chen Changsheng was that he was shrouded in a layer of mist.
Even with his saintly power, he could not see through it.
It should be known that Tongtian is a Heavenly Saint who wields a portion of the Heavenly Dao's authority, and thus can see through the fate of many living beings in the primordial world.
Amidst his surprise and doubt, Tongtian suddenly realized something.
"Could it be that the shift in the fate of the Jie Sect was triggered by this boy?"
Earlier, Tongtian discovered twice that the fortune of the Jie Sect had surged.
He had, of course, deduced this.
Unfortunately, there is no way to calculate it.
Even now, Chen Changsheng is the same; he is not subject to the prying eyes of the sages.
This naturally led Tongtian to connect the two events.
While observing him, Tongtian also discovered that Zhao Gongming's cultivation had already advanced to the Quasi-Saint level.
"If it wasn't him, could it be Zhao Gongming?"
"That shouldn't be happening!"
"Even if Zhao Gongming were to advance to Quasi-Saint, it would be impossible for my Jie Sect's fortune to fluctuate so much, especially twice."
Just as Tongtian was pondering this.
Chen Changsheng became increasingly uneasy, his heart pounding with anxiety.
"Could we have really been seen through?"
He muttered to himself, fearing that Tongtian would discover his identity as a transmigrator or that he possessed a system.
Little did they know, Tongtian hadn't seen through any of that at all.
I just felt that the previous fluctuations in the fortunes of the Jie Sect might be related to Chen Changsheng.
Tongtian was right about this.
Earlier, Chen Changsheng accepted Deng Chanyu as his disciple, and later made an agreement with Li Jing and his wife to accept their third son as his disciple.
He also gave the Quasi-Saint Pill to Zhao Gongming to help him advance to Quasi-Saint status.
The things they did were, in a way, changing the fate of the Jie Sect.
At this moment, everyone in the Jie Sect was also filled with doubt.
He didn't understand why Tongtian was scrutinizing Chen Changsheng like that.
Fortunately, after scrutinizing Chen Changsheng for a moment, Tongtian calmly withdrew his gaze and then said:
"The reason I have summoned you all to Biyou Palace today is to expound the Great Dao of Shangqing and to elucidate the profound mysteries of Hunyuan."
"This sermon will last for three years."
"You must calm your minds and listen carefully."
Upon hearing Tongtian speak, all the disciples of the Jie Sect present snapped out of their daze and responded in unison:
"Yes, Master!"
"Yes, Grandmaster!"
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.
