Taiyi tried to deduce the secrets of heaven for a while, but failed to capture any useful information. He had no choice but to give up and shook his head helplessly.
Seeing Taiyi's expression, everyone knew that he had gained nothing.
Indra secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He truly hadn't expected that even Teacher Taiyi could be kept in the dark by the main body.
It should be noted that even as Taiyi's disciple, he had never been able to figure out the limits of Taiyi's cultivation.
In any case, every time I stand in front of Taiyi, I feel immense pressure and the profound and boundless aura of the Great Dao.
Regardless of what others were thinking, the Styx Ancestor's feelings were quite complicated at this moment.
While secretly enjoying mocking Taiichi for making mistakes, he also felt extremely uncomfortable, as Taiichi's failure made it even harder for him to prove his innocence.
"Alas! I am powerless to help you, and I'm afraid the cause and effect between you two will be difficult to untangle in a short time..." Taiyi shrugged, his face expressionless, showing no sign of defeat despite his failure.
Little did he know that he had experienced countless failures in his life, and this small one was nothing more than losing face in front of others.
He didn't take it to heart.
Just because of this one mishap, would anyone dare to underestimate him?
"...However, considering the methods that person just used, they should not be underestimated...This also indirectly proves that the thief was not Fellow Daoist Styx; he was here just now and did not make any unusual moves..."
Taiyi then looked at Houtu and asked, "Fellow Daoist Houtu, what do you think?"
Houtu nodded slightly after hearing this, "What my royal brother said is correct. It seems that I misunderstood Fellow Daoist Styx before."
"But that's not right! We clearly saw it with our own eyes before, it was the Styx Ancestor!" Kuafu argued loudly.
Others simply couldn't be bothered with such a simplistic question.
Only his friend Hou Yi said helplessly, "This is easy to explain. Perhaps someone used some kind of magical power to deceive us."
"this……"
Upon hearing this, Kuafu immediately feigned sudden realization...
On the other side, the Styx Ancestor revealed his ferocious nature and said viciously, "Hmph! If I catch that bastard who impersonates the Ancestor, the Ancestor will definitely make him taste the punishment of my Blood Sea, and let him know what it means to wish for death but not to live."
Upon hearing this, Indra, who was not far away, quickly lowered his head.
fail!
What a failure!
This attempt to shift the blame was a complete failure!
The original poster's idea was good, but their attempt to shift blame was too slick, and they were exposed so easily.
Hopefully, he'll learn from this experience and be more careful next time he takes action...
...
Hundreds of millions of miles away from the sea of blood, the Xuanhuang fire in Hu Leqing's cloud finally slowly went out, and the ball of merit Xuanhuang energy also burned away.
He put away the Qingyun Three Flowers and sighed inwardly, wondering whether he had made a loss or a gain this time.
On the surface, he exchanged a future merit-based spiritual treasure for a primordial spiritual treasure.
It seems like we're breaking even.
But if you add to all the effort he put in before, and the fact that he almost had his soul scattered by the Chaos Bell, then he really suffered a huge loss.
However, the reality cannot be calculated in this way.
The main reason is that the Reincarnation Disc is too special. It is not an ordinary innate spiritual treasure. Regardless of its quality, it is related to the mystery of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
If he can use this treasure to gain the upper hand in the cycle of reincarnation and seize all or even the greatest share of merit in the future.
So this loss is nothing to him; in fact, it can be considered a huge profit.
However, this is ultimately a matter for the future. Whether he succeeds or not depends half on his own efforts and the other half on fate.
Everything can only be left to the future, to time to unfold as it will...
Hu Le put away Qingyun, took out a cup of Three Lights Divine Water, poured out a healing pill he had refined himself from the gourd, dissolved it in the Three Lights Divine Water, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Next, he silently circulated his magical power and began to heal his previous injuries...
Several years passed in the blink of an eye. The gods had almost traversed the entire Netherworld. Wherever they went, they wiped out almost all the powerful and bloodthirsty ghosts.
Taiyi then summoned the gods back.
After the gods reunited, Houtu invited them into her palace in the underworld and thanked them profusely before personally sending them out of the underworld.
The gods returned to the primordial world, and Taiyi waved his hand, ordering them to disperse and return to their respective dojos.
Hu Le mingled among the gods, remaining inconspicuous and seemingly unrelated to everything that had happened in the Blood Sea.
After all the gods had left, he stepped forward to bid farewell to Taiyi and his wife, and then greeted Ziwei and his brothers before leisurely riding on auspicious clouds back to Penglai Immortal Island.
After watching their disciple's figure disappear into the horizon, the couple flew hand in hand toward the Heavenly Court, with Ziwei and the others obediently following behind them.
"Your Majesty, have you noticed? Our eldest disciple seems to have changed a bit!" Empress Jin Detian suddenly said.
"Oh? What change? I didn't notice it," Tai replied calmly.
Upon hearing this, Queen Jin paused for a moment, seemingly organizing her thoughts.
After a long pause, she finally spoke: "It's not a change in cultivation level or luck, but rather... how should I put it, I remember he was always a bit timid and hesitant in front of you before, as if he was afraid of you."
But when he said goodbye to us just now, he seemed much more at ease, and the fear that had been ingrained in him before was gone.
Taiyi thought for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded.
"That's right, I wouldn't have noticed that if you hadn't pointed it out. You're so observant as my master's wife!" Taiyi exclaimed, then continued, "So, where do you think this change in him came from? Is it good or bad for him?"
Jin Detian shook her head, then nodded.
"I don't know where the change came from, but as for whether it's good or bad... hehe, it's definitely a good thing."
Taiyi nodded slightly upon hearing this, "That's right. If one's heart is filled with fear and cowardice, it will be extremely difficult to perfect one's Dao heart. If one's Dao heart is not satisfied, how can one attain enlightenment?"
With this change, our disciple's chances of becoming a Grandmaster are now very high, and neither you nor I need to worry about him anymore.
"Oh, since you knew all along that our disciple's Dao heart was flawed, why didn't you remind him before?" Empress Jin De asked with a reproachful smile.
"All transformations should originate from one's own heart. It would be best if he could change on his own like this. But if he doesn't realize it himself, I will remind him and lend him a helping hand before he experiences the decline of his Dao heart."
"But at that time, I will be very disappointed in him," Taiichi explained.
"Hehe... Now that things have come to this, you can say whatever you want..." Queen Jin couldn't help but roll her eyes at Taiyi...
