"Unfortunately, your cultivation level is still a bit lacking."
Within the vortex of spacetime, the figure of the Demon Child suddenly materialized.
"If I could strike again, I would definitely kill that brat!"
Yuan Mo Tong Zi's words revealed a message: Cui Jue, the Grand Prefect, was injured but not dead!
This also means that he will have one more major enemy in the future.
"It seems I can no longer go to the Netherworld."
Bai Cang silently thought to himself, "Until I have the strength to kill Grand Lord Cui Jue, I must not step into the Netherworld again."
However, Yuan Mo Tong Zi gave a completely opposite conclusion.
"Before you merge with the Great Dao, it would be best if you entered the Netherworld once more, turning the favors others owed you into benefits and resources, and further solidifying your foundation."
Bai Cang looked troubled upon hearing this: "I've already wreaked havoc on Youming, and there are still people who want to owe me a favor?"
Seeing this, Yuan Mo Tong Zi laughed and said, "Who do you think asked me to help? And who secretly helped you, making you suffer on the verge of death, yet no one paid any attention?"
Bai Cang's heart skipped a beat. "You mean: Great Divine Lord Youyuan?"
As for the favor from Emperor You Sheng, Bai Cang dared not hope for it.
If the other party wanted to deal with Grand Prefect Cui Jue, they wouldn't need to resort to so many complicated schemes; they could simply launch a direct attack.
In the Netherworld, there is a clear hierarchy. Those who are primordial spirit incarnations or immortal Dao Lords can be conferred the title of Divine Lord. Those who are primordial spirit dharma bodies or calamity Dao Lords can be conferred the title of Great Divine Lord. Only those who have completed the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations and have a chance to advance to the Dao Integration stage can become Great Lords.
As for the Netherworld Emperor, he is at least a Golden Immortal who has achieved Dao Integration, and it is not impossible for him to be a Pure Yang Great Power.
Yuan Mo Tong Zi said meaningfully, "You Yuan has his eye on Cui Jue's position as Grand Prefect, which is indeed something. Next time we meet, I guess I'll have to call him Grand Prefect."
But compared to the others, Yu-Yuan was at best an extra.
Bai Cang asked in confusion, "Besides the Great Divine Lord Youyuan, who else has such a deep grudge against Cui Jue?"
Moreover, he didn't find any trace of interference from anyone other than the Great God Lord Youyuan.
"Why should there be hatred in the struggle for the Great Way?"
Yuan Mo Tong Zi said calmly, "Since the Dao Ancestor of Life and Death was killed by the Seven Phoenixes in the endless Netherworld 100,000 years ago, the Dao of Life and Death has been without a master. The seventeen Great Lords of the Netherworld have set their sights on this Dao."
The most promising candidate was Cui Jue, who was already regarded as a thorn in the side by the other sixteen Grand Lords.
Cui Jue has failed in his duty this time, and he certainly can't keep his position as Grand Prefect. I've also dealt him another blow, and it will definitely take tens of thousands of years for him to recover.
If others take advantage of this opportunity to kick him while he's down, he will surely suffer an irreparable fate. Not to mention the innate Dao of Life and Death, he might not even be able to save his own life.
You rid them of such a formidable enemy; do you think they owe you a huge favor?
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang was overjoyed, yet somewhat dumbfounded.
Good heavens, I hadn't even realized I'd accomplished something so significant.
He even directly participated in a great struggle involving the entire Netherworld, playing the most important role.
How the hell did I not know I was so awesome?
Bai Cang felt an urge to put his hands on his hips, but he also deeply cared for Bi Shu.
In this struggle, I am mostly just playing the role of a "supporting character".
The person who actually planned and implemented this plan was "Teacher Tianhe".
And his purpose in doing so is not hard to guess.
It was to leave himself with enough connections and favors, and at the same time to experience the struggles of the Great Dao at the Dao Integration level and above in advance.
That's truly a well-intentioned effort!
Although his teacher is usually a terrible person, he really steps up when needed!
This teacher is someone I can get along with; I must treat her well!
Thinking of this, Bai Cang was filled with gratitude and bowed deeply to Yuan Mo Tong Zi with a sincere expression, "Thank you, Master, for your planning for your disciple. Your disciple will remember it and be eternally grateful!"
Yuan Mo Tong Zi waved his sleeve, stopping Bai Cang from bowing down, and said indifferently, "You can't say that to me. I'm just a spell that I conjured up at will."
Furthermore, I think your teacher might not even want your gratitude; he probably'd rather you stay away from him!
Upon hearing this, Bai Cang touched his nose and could only offer an awkward yet polite smile.
Does anyone in the family understand this?
My teacher did this to me simply because his wife "liked" me so much.
What kind of arrogant, master-disciple relationship is this!
But what could he say? That he would definitely stay away from his teacher's wife from now on?
That's like digging your own grave!
Some things can be done but not said.
For example, the "severance payment" given by "Teacher Tianhe".
He could accept it, but he absolutely could not admit it, much less let his master's wife know.
So Bai Cang could only smile and act obediently.
I've already begged for mercy!
Seeing Bai Cang's posture, Yuan Mo Tong Zi also found it very interesting.
He immediately wanted to whisper a few words behind her back, "ruthlessly" banishing his "true self".
But after thinking about it, I still didn't say it.
No one understands the "real person's" petty thoughts better than him.
Cricket fun is great for a moment, but after the crickets die, you're in for a world of hurt!
So he subtly changed the subject, "After merging with the Dao, if you want to go further and attain the Pure Yang Dao Fruit, you must merge with another Dao that is opposite to your own foundation."
Therefore, the struggle for the Great Way is often predetermined when you choose your path.
The enemies of the Great Dao need no grudges; they are destined to fight to the death.
Some Golden Immortals who have reached the Dao even set traps on the corresponding paths and passed down flawed cultivation methods.
Or they might specifically train disciples of the corresponding Dao, eliminating all potential threats, all for the sake of a smooth final harvest.
Your advancement to the Dao Integration stage is inevitable. You should plan ahead in advance to ensure a smoother path on your future journey.
Bai Cang suddenly had a flash of inspiration and bowed deeply, saying, "I humbly request guidance from Master Yuanmo."
He had absolutely no concept of the levels beyond the Dao.
Prior to this experience, I had no experience with "Daoist struggles" and had no idea which Daoist paths were already owned or which ones were already being targeted.
As for which enemies of the Great Dao are easier to deal with, whether there are any gaps to exploit, or any weaknesses to exploit, these are completely unknown "blind spots" to him.
This is why having a good teacher is so important!
A teacher is one who imparts knowledge, teaches skills, and resolves doubts.
Without the guidance of a good teacher, one might unknowingly fall into a big pit without even realizing it.
They might even be "leeks" cultivated by their own teachers.
His methods had already been thoroughly understood.
Their entire life's destiny was also clearly arranged.
That's truly dying without even knowing how you died!
Compared to those people, what "Teacher Tianhe" called a "pitfall" can at most be considered a "fun" between master and disciple.
In this respect alone, Bai Cang has already surpassed 99% of the Nascent Soul Dao Lords in the world!
