Peach Garden of Jade Void Palace.
Jiang Ziya, with his white hair and beard, had just finished tending to the immortal peach trees in the peach orchard.
He was sitting cross-legged in the shade of a tree, practicing meditation.
When the White Crane Boy arrived, he told Jiang Ziya that Yuanshi Tianzun had summoned him.
Jiang Ziya was overjoyed.
He has been practicing asceticism on Mount Kunlun for thirty-eight years.
Although nominally, he was a direct disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun.
In reality, he mostly cultivated in this peach garden, more like a servant summoned by the Primordial Celestial Venerable to manage the peach garden.
He had met Yuanshi Tianzun once when he joined the Chan Sect.
After that, he never saw Yuanshi Tianzun again.
Jiang Ziya is seventy years old this year. For him, thirty-eight years is a very long time.
After such a long time, it's easy to imagine how excited Jiang Ziya was to finally see his sage master again!
......
"Very good!"
"It seems that Master has finished testing me and is about to impart his true skills to me!"
Jiang Ziya once heard a saying that the Dao should not be lightly passed on.
In his view, the thirty-eight years he spent in the Peach Garden after entering the sect were actually tests from the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
Now, through my own efforts, I have finally passed the test of the Primordial Celestial Venerable!
Jiang Ziya beamed with joy, carefully tidied his appearance, and followed the White Crane Boy to meet the Primordial Heavenly Lord.
At this moment.
Jade Void Palace.
Disciples of the Chan Sect, including the Daoist Burning Lamp, the Immortal of the South Pole, the Master of Clouds, the True Man of Red Essence, the True Man of Taiyi, and the True Man of Jade Cauldron, gathered together.
Looking at Yuanshi Tianzun, who sat high on his cloud chariot, replenishing the destroyed Heavenly Dao origin in Zixiao Palace, whose hands, feet, hair, nose, and lips that had been cut off by Di Xin not long ago had all been restored, whose appearance had returned to normal, and who once again displayed the majesty of a sage, it seemed that everything was under his control.
The panic in the hearts of the disciples of the Chan Sect immediately dissipated considerably.
Immediately.
As the vice leader of the Chan Sect, Daoist Ran Deng spoke on behalf of everyone to Yuanshi Tianzun:
"Master, seeing that you are in good health, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief..."
"May I ask, Master, did you find a way to deal with the Great Shang Demon Dynasty from the Dao Ancestor during your trip to Zixiao Palace?"
......
Before Yuanshi Tianzun returned.
During their discussion, Daoist Ran Deng, Immortal Antarctic, Yun Zhongzi, and others unanimously referred to the Great Shang Holy Dynasty as the Great Shang Demon Dynasty.
In their view.
The fact that the Great Shang Dynasty, a mere human kingdom, could suddenly become so powerful, even to the point of suppressing saints, is extremely strange. There must be evil forces at play behind it all. It is a so-called holy dynasty, but in reality, it is a demonic dynasty.
Moreover, the Four Sages of the Supreme Being represent the Way of Heaven.
Di Xin dared to suppress, and even attempted to kill, the Four Supreme Saints. This was going against the will of Heaven and was an act of evil!
Therefore, they all believed that the Shang Dynasty was a demonic dynasty!
Not long ago, Randeng and others witnessed the tragic fate of the Four Sages of the Shang Dynasty, and their hearts were filled with fear of the Shang Dynasty.
They all desperately hoped that Yuanshi Tianzun's return from Zixiao Palace would bring them good news!
......
After the Daoist Ran Deng asked his question, the eyes of the Antarctic Immortal, Yun Zhongzi, Taiyi, and others all turned to the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, awaiting his answer.
Yuanshi Tianzun stroked his long, carved beard, glanced at Randeng and the others who seemed to be waiting for their college entrance exam results, and said confidently:
"That's right, I already know the best way to deal with the Great Shang Demon Dynasty from the Dao Ancestor..."
"Soon, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods will officially begin. In this great calamity, the Great Shang Demon Dynasty will be reduced to ashes, and the demonic Emperor Xin will die without a burial place, suffering endless torment and pain, paying a terrible price for daring to desecrate the majesty of the sage!"
"As for the specifics of how to proceed, you need not know. What you must do is follow my instructions and successfully navigate this great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, understand?"
Yuanshi Tianzun did not tell Randeng and the others about the plan he had discussed with Taishang and others.
After all, this matter was too important, and he had to treat it with caution.
......
Upon hearing Yuanshi Tianzun's confident reply, Daoist Ran Deng, the Old Man of the South Pole, Yun Zhongzi, and others all breathed a sigh of relief.
They then answered seriously:
"Master, rest assured, we will definitely follow your orders and will never act without authorization!"
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded.
He looked up and saw that Jiang Ziya, the son of the Great Calamity, was about to arrive.
Then, the Primordial Celestial Venerable addressed the crowd:
"Nanji Zi, stay here. The rest of you, return to your caves and prepare for the Investiture of the Gods."
The Taoist Ran Deng, Yun Zhongzi, and others wanted to ask more questions.
But Yuanshi Tianzun was a man of his word, and since he had said so, no one dared to disobey.
Immediately, Daoist Ran Deng, Yun Zhongzi, and others bowed and left the main hall of Yuxu Palace.
In the vast hall, only Yuanshi Tianzun and Nanji Xianweng remained.
......
Not long after Randeng and the others left.
Led by the White Crane Boy, Jiang Ziya arrived at the main hall of the Jade Void Palace.
Looking at the magnificent hall radiating divine light, and the awe-inspiring, holy figure within, Yuanshi Tianzun seemed to be the embodiment of the Dao.
Jiang Ziya, his face filled with excitement, bowed and said:
"Disciple Jiang Shang greets Master!"
At that moment, Jiang Ziya was so excited that he almost cried.
It hasn't been easy. After 38 years on the mountain, he's finally about to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Jiang Ziya, whose hair and beard were all white and who looked old, and there was a hint of disgust and aversion in his eyes.
