Zhou Qi spoke with great logic and reason, which not only reflected his own wisdom but also his deduction of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect.
Although his cultivation level stopped at the Great Luo Perfection stage, his journey in the Path of Cause and Effect had already exceeded the Great Luo realm and entered the Quasi-Saint level.
If it weren't for the tight schedule and heavy workload, he might have been able to break through the barriers and reach the Quasi-Saint level if he had secluded himself for tens of thousands of years.
This is why he respects Meng Fan so much.
These were all given to him by Meng Fan. Although he didn't give him anything to save his life, he gave him the means to make a living, which is something that no amount of treasures can buy.
As a top-tier Dao, the Dao of Cause and Effect is the most difficult to comprehend among the three thousand Daos. Zhou Qi's success in comprehending it already demonstrates his talent.
After all, he wasn't like those elders of the Cloud Palace, who only practiced the difficult laws and disdained the simple ones.
Everything in the world is subject to the law of cause and effect. With his understanding of the law of cause and effect, even the likes of the stele cannot escape his deduction, let alone Lord Lingshan.
Just as he had imagined, this world of the extreme mountains gradually began to descend into chaos.
What started as minor skirmishes gradually escalated out of control.
In the end, as many as ten Taiyi Golden Immortals died in the battle.
The world of Jishan is shattered, the world is in turmoil, space is in chaos, and the very foundation of the primordial energy of heaven and earth is affected.
This is the Great Thousand World, a very stable space. Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would find it difficult to shatter space, which shows how fierce the battle between the two sides was!
This situation lasted for a thousand years. Seeing that it was about time, Wu Dong made a strong move and stopped the three of them.
Over the years, although Wu Dong and Yang San were in the same camp, Wu Dong only helped him to prevent him from being defeated. He also advised Yang San to plan for the long term and not to cause trouble among himself. The three of them sat down and had a good talk.
Unfortunately, Yang San ignored Wu Dong's advice and was determined to kill Yang Yi or at least beat him into submission.
This internal strife lasted for a thousand years.
Now that Wu Dong felt the time was right, he made a powerful entrance, unleashing his full strength and holding his own against three opponents, thus forcibly halting the war.
The four of them were sitting on a mountaintop. With Wu Dong there, they didn't dare to act recklessly. They had no choice but to lower their stance since they were weaker than him.
Wu Dong, dressed in a plain black outfit with the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth gathered on his cloak, sat atop the mountain, exuding an imposing aura.
Yang San, dressed in green robes and adorned with jade, appeared to be a young man, always clutching a celestial sword in his hand, ready to fight at the slightest provocation.
Yang Er, dressed in white, looked like an old man with an air of otherworldly elegance. He held his whisk tightly in his hand, wary of Yang San's sudden attack.
Yang Yi was a burly man who was very composed and had an air of superiority, always glancing at Yang San with disdain.
Yang San looked at Wu Dong and said coldly, "Wu Dong, if you had helped me with all your might, they would have died long ago. How could the Extreme Mountain World have fallen into a thousand-year war?"
Wu Dong bowed and said, "Brother Dao, my original intention was to stop your fighting, so why would I help you with all my might? I originally wanted to make the two of them back down, but you two have become addicted to fighting and insist on destroying the Extreme Mountain World."
Upon hearing this, Yang Yi looked indignant: "Wu Dong, don't think we're afraid of you. If my treasure vault hadn't been stolen by that scoundrel Yang San, and I had a primordial treasure to help me, you might not be my match."
Upon hearing this, Yang San immediately retorted, "Bullshit! Don't make baseless accusations! I don't even know the location of your treasure vault, so how could I possibly rob it? You're blaming me for being robbed yourself, so why don't you blame me for your wife running off with someone else too!"
As Yang San finished speaking, Yang Yi's expression grew increasingly grim, and he coldly said, "I think you're courting death!"
He was about to make a move after saying that, but how could Wu Dong let them fight here?
He immediately said, "Brothers, please hold your fire. I have already found out who moved Brother Yangyi's treasure vault."
"Oh? Who is it?" Yang asked immediately, seeing that Wu Dong didn't seem to be joking.
Before Wu Dong could answer, Yang San interjected, "What about my treasure vault? Has it been discovered?"
Wu Dong shrugged: "I only found out who stole Yang Yi's treasure vault, but I have no clue about the treasure vaults of the three of us."
Yang San was somewhat disheartened upon hearing this: "What's the use? His treasure vault was stolen, and that's that. We can't make up for our losses."
Wu Dong laughed and said, "Brother Dao, Yang Yi's treasure trove has indeed been found, but it will be extremely difficult for him to take it back."
Yang clenched his fist and said, "No matter who did such a despicable thing, I will make them wish they were dead!"
Wu Dong stared intently into Yang Yi's eyes and slowly said, "Your treasure vault is in Zhou Er's hands in the world of evil gods. Are you sure you want to take it back?"
Yang Yi and the other two were taken aback, saying in disbelief, "Tuesday? Impossible, why would they come here to steal my treasure vault? Are you sure?"
Wu Dong asked in surprise, "Don't you have any trusted confidants in the Evil God World? It's no secret that Zhou Er is showing off the treasures from your treasury everywhere without any attempt to hide it; everyone in the Evil God World knows this."
Yang Yi's face instantly turned black, and he roared, "Zhou Er! I'll eat your flesh and sleep on your skin!"
Yang San then came to his senses and said, "Of course we also have spies in the Evil God World, but they only send and receive messages once every ten thousand years. So, according to you, our treasure vault was also entirely created by the Evil God World?"
"I don't know about that. There's a reason why we asked you to come and mediate. I suspect that the internal strife in our Extreme Mountain World is part of the evil god's plan, aimed at depleting our world's power."
Yang Er, who had an air of otherworldly wisdom and seemed indifferent to everything, was startled upon hearing this. A world war was no small matter, and he quickly said, "Wu Dong, you mustn't speak recklessly. This matter is of utmost importance and cannot be discussed lightly."
Wu Dong flashed and reappeared carrying several figures in his hands. They were the same people that Zhou Er and Zhou Qi had coerced and bribed.
"You can ask them."
Yang Yi pointed at them angrily and said, "Speak! Tell me everything you know!"
Knowing they were doomed, the group blurted out everything they knew.
Upon hearing this, the three were enraged, and Yang Yi smashed them into dust with a single palm strike.
Seeing this, Wu Dong said with a serious expression, "The world of evil gods is on the verge of starting a war with us. You are still fighting amongst yourselves. Sooner or later, the foundation of the Holy Lord will be destroyed in your hands."
Although Yang Yi has a fiery temper, he is not stupid. The three of them were tricked and fought to the death by the evil god world. If Ling Shan Jun knew about this, wouldn't it prove their incompetence?
The three of them felt a sense of dread upon thinking about this.
Seeing this, Wu Dong said, "In urgent situations, we should act expediently. I suggest we shake hands and make peace, guard our positions strictly, and wait for the Holy Lord to emerge from seclusion."
All three nodded upon hearing this.
"I have already emerged from seclusion. Come quickly to the main hall to discuss matters."
At this moment, a vast and ancient voice came, and everyone was shocked, realizing that the Holy Lord of the Extreme Mountain World, Lord Lingshan, had emerged from seclusion.
