The rift between Yuqing Yuanshi Daoren and Shangqing Tongtian Daoren grew wider due to conflicts between their disciples.
Taiqing Daoist tried to mediate several times, but to no avail, so he simply gave up and let the two argue.
However, he never expected that one day, after arguing, the two would end up fighting.
He could no longer stand by and watch, so he had to intervene. After much persuasion from him, the two finally stopped fighting.
This time, Shangqing Daoist was almost at the point of breaking ties with Yuqing Daoist and no longer wanted to live with him. He decided on the spot to move Biyou Palace away from Kunlun Mountain.
Upon hearing this, Daoist Yuqing frowned, a hint of regret rising in his heart.
To be honest, he disliked the Biyou Palace faction, but he never really intended to force Shangqing Daoist away.
Besides, if this matter gets out and his fellow practitioners find out, what will they think of him?
"Tongtian, don't go too far. I was just saying a few words to you, and you attacked me. Why are you even thinking of leaving?" Yuqing Daoist said coldly.
Although he wanted to keep the man, his expression did not soften at all. Just because Tongtian Daoist dared to fight him before, he believed that Tongtian was being disrespectful and was still angry.
Master Taiqing frowned as well: "Third junior brother, don't act rashly. How can you just leave like that? Don't forget that we have the bond of the Three Pure Ones and the friendship of fellow disciples."
Tongtian Daoren was quite respectful to his senior brother, saying, "Senior brother, it's not that I don't respect you, it's just that Yuanshi is really going too far in bullying people."
"How did I bully you again? I just scolded you a couple of times. What? Can't I, as your senior brother, teach you a lesson?" Yuanshi said angrily.
Tongtian Daoren, however, was unwilling to argue with him any further and said to Taiqing Daoren, "Senior Brother, my move this time is actually to fulfill the friendship between the Three Pure Ones."
In my opinion, if our two families were to force ourselves to live together, it might actually lead to a bloody conflict one day.
At that time, I fear that our friendship with the Three Pure Ones will be difficult to preserve.
Now that I've voluntarily left, I've avoided further conflict. I figure if any future disagreements arise, my second senior brother wouldn't dare come to my door to fight.
Seeing the resolute expression on Tongtian Daoren's face, Taiqing Daoren understood his junior brother well; once he made up his mind, it was difficult for others to persuade him to change his mind.
He stroked his white beard and sighed, "Fine! Since you insist, then so be it."
Upon hearing this, Daoist Yuqing became anxious, "Senior Brother, you..."
Master Taiqing glanced at him indifferently, thinking to himself: Are you in a hurry?
Why didn't you do this sooner?
You're the senior student, after all. If you had been more accommodating to him before, things wouldn't have come to this.
You can't always expect me, as the senior disciple, to clean up your messes.
Then, he glanced at Tongtian Daoren again and sighed inwardly: "Alas! This is no easy task either."
Looking at the two of them, Daoist Taiqing felt utterly exhausted.
However, on second thought, it might be better for the two of them to separate. If they keep arguing like this, even the best of friendships can't withstand prolonged quarrels, or even physical altercations...
Seeing that Taiqing Daoist did not object, Tongtian Daoist immediately snorted coldly at Yuanshi Daoist, left Bajing Palace without looking back, and then came to Shangqing Peak, where he rang the golden bell in Biyou Palace.
As the bell tolled in the Kunlun Mountains, a group of Biyou Palace disciples rushed over.
"I intend to leave Kunlun and seek another place of practice. Are you all willing to leave with me?"
Looking at the group of disciples standing in front of him, Daoist Shangqing asked in a loud voice.
"good!"
"It should have been done a long time ago!"
The disciples of Biyou Palace had long been tired of being neighbors with the disciples of Yuxu Palace. When they saw that Tongtian Daoist was preparing to move away, they all readily agreed.
Next, Tongtian Daoren ordered his disciples to go back and pack up. After they finished packing, he raised his hand and released a Zhuxian Formation Diagram, which enveloped Biyou Palace in one fell swoop.
Only then did he mount the Kui Niu and lead his disciples away from Kunlun Mountain in a grand procession.
Outside the Eight Views Palace, the Taoist Taiqing and the Taoist Yuanshi watched the Taoist Tongtian and his party leave, but did not see them off.
After everyone had gone far away, Taiqing Daoist smiled at Yuanshi Daoist and said, "Since Third Junior Brother has left, I, as your elder brother, do not intend to stay in Kunlun. This place is yours to keep."
Yuanshi Daoist was slightly taken aback, then said anxiously, "Senior Brother, what are you trying to do? Are you still blaming me for sending Third Junior Brother away? But I really didn't mean that!"
Master Taiqing chuckled and said, "Alright! What's the rush? Don't even mention me, even my third junior brother probably never thought of this."
"Then why are you leaving as well?" Yuanshi Daoren asked with dissatisfaction.
He was genuinely annoyed this time.
He had always been extremely respectful to the Taoist Taiqing and obeyed him in everything. He never expected that the Taoist Taiqing would run away without even consulting him.
If outsiders found out, they would think that Yuanshi couldn't tolerate his two brothers and drove them away.
Isn't this putting him in an unjust position?!
He won't take the blame for this...
"Second junior brother, calm down. I'm just moving the temple. It's not like we'll never see each other again."
"If you have free time in the future, you are welcome to come to my place to discuss the Dao. Red flowers, green leaves, white lotus roots—the Three Pure Ones have always been one family, so don't overthink it."
The Taoist Taiqing smiled, reached out and summoned a Taiji diagram. He shook it, and the scroll unfolded, revealing the Eight Views Palace. He then exchanged a few words with the Taoist Yuanshi before riding his green ox down the mountain.
After leaving Kunlun, they headed east and one day arrived at the foot of Shouyang Mountain.
The Taoist Taiqing saw that this mountain was majestic and magnificent, nurturing supreme spiritual energy. Auspicious light surrounded it above, and immortal energy floated below. Phoenixes sang in the clouds, and auspicious beasts walked along the mountainside.
He did some calculations and found that the mountain not only did not conflict with his own fortune, but rather complemented it perfectly.
"Wonderful! This mountain is truly fit to be my sacred site!"
The Taoist Taiqing smiled as he made his way to the top of the mountain. With a wave of his hand, he created a flat plaza.
Then he took out the Tai Chi diagram, shook it, and the Eight Views Palace flew out of the diagram and landed silently on the square.
After establishing the Dao Palace, he was about to enter it when a five-colored ray of light suddenly rose from the mountain. With a thought, the ray of light flew over and landed in his hand.
As the light gradually faded, a primordial spiritual treasure resembling an oil lamp was revealed.
"Purple Mansion Immortal Lamp!"
With a sweep of his divine sense, the Taoist Taiqing immediately understood the origin of this treasure.
It must be said that Daoist Taiqing is indeed blessed with extraordinary fortune and profound luck. He has only just established his Daoist temple when innate spiritual treasures have already come to him on their own...
Although Taiqing Daoren left later than Tongtian Daoren, he found a suitable place to stay and established a Daoist temple before him.
Meanwhile, the Taoist Master Tongtian of Shangqing was still leading his disciples on a journey through the primordial world...
