The eyes of the old man in the palace flashed slightly, and there were sun, moon and stars in his eyes. The stars and rivers in the universe were moving around him. Around him, various phenomena such as the creation of the world and the evolution of chaos emerged.
This old man is none other than Lao Tzu, the Taiqing sage among the Three Pure Saints, who is also the true deity of Taishang Laojun.
What the clone of Taishang Laojun felt, the main body was also aware of.
"Regardless of whether it's true or not, this is true. Over the years, I have been practicing in seclusion, and my fighting skills have become a bit rusty!"
"I have made little progress through hard training and retreat. If I try my best, I may gain something unexpected."
Taiqing Sage Lao Tzu murmured, and disappeared into the Bajing Palace out of thin air.
After a while, I appeared in front of the floating Yuxu Palace in another location in the chaotic sea.
"Junior Brother Yuanshi, I haven't done anything for many years, and my hands are a little itchy. Come out and compete with me."
Not long after the voice fell, Yuanshi Tianzun, who also had snow-white hair and an immortal air, appeared.
Looking at me speechlessly, Yuan Shi had a headache: "Senior brother, if you don't meditate in seclusion and meditate on your Taiqing Dao, how come you want to learn from it?"
"Something happened to my clone. It seems that the teacher is dissatisfied with the fact that we only know about seclusion and blames us for being content with the status quo and not making progress."
I replied with a slight twinkle in my eyes.
Yuan Shi was stunned, laughed and shook his head: "Senior brother, do you believe it? The teacher is looking for me, why don't you just look for us?"
"How do I know? Who can figure out the meaning of the teacher? Maybe his purpose is to find someone else to pass on a few words. Regardless of whether it is true or not, senior brother, I also feel that we have been a little too comfortable in these years."
Without worrying too much about the authenticity, I took out his crutch and knocked it on Yuan Shi's shoulder.
Yuan Shi, with a dark face, took out his three precious jade Ruyi and held it up.
The two saints started fighting each other in the sea of chaos.
The Sea of Chaos is far more durable than the Three Realms. Not even a saint can destroy it casually.
In the Lotus Cave, Taishang Laojun came back to his senses, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He decided that he would practice hard and gain enlightenment when he returned, and find others to discuss with him. Even if he was a clone, he could not fall behind.
"My friend, please tell me the news. I am very grateful. If the golden horn or the silver horn remain unchanged, please follow me back to heaven."
After bowing politely to Yang Xiao, Taishang Laojun's eyes fell on his two boys.
When Jinjiao and Yinjiao heard this, their bodies flashed and turned into normal human forms. They stood respectfully behind Taishang Laojun.
"Well, where are the treasures you brought down?"
Looking at the two people in confusion, Taishang Laojun asked.
After being stunned, Jinjiao scratched his head: "Yes, where is our treasure?"
"That's weird. I remember it's here, but where did it go?" Yinjiao also looked confused and started rummaging around on his body.
Yang Xiao on the side twitched slightly at the sight, you two fools, your treasure has been stolen long ago!
After a while, Yinjiao remembered first and said, "I remembered, my Seven-Star Sword was thrown outside the cave."
"My banana fan is also outside the cave. King Hanbao's men said it was a fake." Jinjiao also remembered.
With that said, the two of them ran outside the cave and searched for the places in their memory.
Looking at his two boys blankly, Taishang Laojun twitched the corners of his mouth, "You just throw away the treasures given to you by this Taoist ancestor?"
After waiting for a while, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao came back with depressed faces. No need to ask, looking at their faces, Taishang Laojun had already guessed the result.
"You two idiots, how can you throw away treasures? What about the purple, gold and red gourds and jade purification bottles?"
Looking at the two people speechlessly, Taishang Laojun asked.
Jinjiao and Yinjiao were confused again, scratching their heads and unable to remember what was going on.
The little demon Cleverworm in the distance saw it and ran out and said, "Go back to the old king. The king gave the treasure to King Hanbao's men, and they promised to protect the safety of our cave."
The confused Taishang Laojun looked at Smart Insect, what the hell is this old king?
The clone of this Taoist ancestor has a respected position in heaven. What kind of king is he? And who is the Hanbao King? He protects the cave?
The confused Taishang Laojun asked, and with the explanations from Golden Horn and Silver Horn, as well as Smart Worm and Fine Ghost, he finally figured out what was going on.
"With your strength and the treasure I gave you, do you still need someone to protect you? You are so stupid, you have been deceived."
Taishang Laojun, who figured out what was going on, felt very tired. Why did he accept such two stupid boys back then?
He clearly remembered that when they collected it, the two of them didn't seem so stupid. What exactly was the problem?
Could it be that after following him in alchemy for so many years, I was suffocated by the alchemy fire and became stupid?
Although the treasure was deceived, Taishang Laojun was not anxious at all. There were very few people who could erase the tricks he had left on the treasure.
Kneading the secret in his hand, Taishang Laojun closed his eyes to feel it. After a moment, the expression on his face was stunned. How could it be possible that he couldn't feel anything? The traces were completely wiped away.
"I……"
The corners of Taishang Laojun's mouth twitched, and he had the urge to curse. What bastard did it?
After trying several methods but still unable to find it, Taishang Laojun decided to go to Buddhism to find Guanyin and ask them to compensate.
The person was borrowed by Guanyin, and the treasure was also given to her by Guanyin. Now that the treasure is lost, who should I look for if not her?
I just want to make progress according to the teacher's request, but I want to find someone to do it, but I have no excuse.
Taishang Laojun, who had made up his mind, said something to Yang Xiao and others, and then prepared to leave.
"Old King, take us with you. We are loyal to the King. Wherever the King goes, we will go."
At this moment, the two little demons, Clever Worm and Jinggui, rushed over, knelt on the ground one on the left and the other on the right, and hugged Taishang Laojun's legs.
The astonished Taishang Laojun frowned slightly and wondered whether he should take it back. There seemed to be a few people in his Tushita Palace.
"Daozu, take them with you. They will definitely be as smart, obedient and sensible as Yinjiao and I."
After all, they are little demons who have been together for a while, Jinjiao couldn't bear it and advised.
Taishang Laojun, who originally had some ideas, agreed without much thought, and the five of them returned to heaven.
Watching the few people leave, Yang Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect that Taishang Laojun would take those two little demons away as well.
The golden horn and the silver horn are already enough for Laojun to have a headache, but if you bring two little demons who are no better than these two, the Supreme Laojun will cry a lot in the future.
But maybe the Golden Horn and Silver Horn heads are not big enough, but they are more obedient and should be fine in alchemy.
Lao Shang Laojun took the people away, and Yang Xiao and the others sent Tang Sanzang and his disciples out of the Lotus Cave and asked them to continue heading west.
Watching the master and apprentice leave, golden light suddenly fell from the air and penetrated into the bodies of Yang Xiao and others.
In the bookstore, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in Yang Xiao's mind.
"Ding, I have received God-given merit, and my cultivation has improved. My current strength is in the middle stage of human immortality."
Speechless, Yang Xiao rolled his eyes. He thought he had achieved a breakthrough. He had been fussing for a long time, but he was just making progress!
Things at Lotus Cave came to an end. Yang Xiao took back his projection, and the Eight Scenery Palace Lantern appeared in his hand, and he watched it carefully.
