As the discussion progressed, a somber and oppressive silence fell over the magnificent hall.
In fact, everyone present understood this in their hearts.
Even their master was defeated by the Shang dynasty.
With their strength, they simply cannot stop the might of the Shang Dynasty!
If they had stayed here and continued to fight against the Shang army when it arrived.
That's practically like throwing an egg against a rock!
At that time, only death awaits them!
...
After a period of silence.
The highest-ranking monk present, Grand Master Xuandu, sighed heavily and said:
"Alas, fellow Daoists, we are now facing a very bad and critical situation!"
"The brutal Shang army is getting closer and closer to us. Whether we like it or not, we must face a harsh reality: the Shang are far stronger than we are now!"
"We absolutely cannot stay here and wait to die. We need to leave temporarily and find more allies to deal with the brutal and ruthless Shang Dynasty!"
"In my opinion, our best option right now is to go to the Heavenly Court, join forces with Haotian, and deal with the Great Shang together!"
...
Grand Master Xuandu shared his thoughts with everyone.
As soon as he spoke, many people in the room frowned.
To be honest, although Haotian was once Hongjun Laozu's attendant, and the three sects of Renjiao, Chanjiao, and Xifangjiao are all of the same lineage as Hongjun, they can be said to be one of their own.
But even people within the same group have their own conflicts!
For example, Haotian was supported by Hongjun Laozu to become the ruler of the Heavenly Court. In theory, he became the ruler of the entire prehistoric world.
All living beings in the world, including disciples of the three religions of Humanity, Chan, and the Western Paradise, shall be subject to the rule of the Jade Emperor.
but.
Master Xuandu, the Antarctic Immortal, the Jade Cauldron Immortal, Ksitigarbha, and others, as disciples of sages, considered themselves to have an incomparably noble status.
Why would they be willing to accept the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court?
Thus, the conflict arose.
Haotian wanted the disciples of the three religions to obey him, but the disciples of the three religions repeatedly disrespected the Heavenly Court.
Faced with this situation, Haotian himself could not do anything about the saintly sects such as the Human Sect, the Chan Sect, and the Western Sect, so he went to Hongjun Laozu to complain.
It was Haotian's lament that triggered the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods!
...
There was already a conflict between the disciples of the three religions and Haotian.
Currently, the three religions, which were once high and mighty, have fallen into such a terrible situation as the Investiture of the Gods calamity unfolds.
The disciples of the three religions couldn't help but wonder if their master would not have died if Haotian hadn't brought about the Investiture of the Gods.
Would the People's Teachings, the Chan Teachings, and the Western Teachings not be in their current predicament?
This is undoubtedly a very likely scenario.
This possibility only intensified the hatred that the disciples of the three religions harbored towards Haotian!
Therefore, when Grand Master Xuandu proposed the idea of going to the Heavenly Court and joining forces with Haotian...
Many disciples from the three religions present frowned.
...
only.
Although many disciples of the three religions harbored hatred towards Haotian, they were reluctant to go to the Heavenly Court and join forces with him.
However.
Analyze the current situation carefully.
One by one, the disciples of the three religions had to admit that Grand Master Xuandu's suggestion was indeed the best solution at the moment!
With the Shang army about to arrive, they are now powerless to resist.
In the vast primordial world, apart from the Heavenly Court, no matter where they went, they were not safe.
thus.
Although he didn't like Haotian and wasn't too willing to cooperate with him.
But in the end, the disciples of the three religions all agreed to the suggestion made by Grand Master Xuandu to go to the Heavenly Court and cooperate with it!
