My Senior Brother is Too Steady

When the paper effigy stepped into the hall, it was as if he had walked into the largest treasure vault near the Heavenly Courts’ Lingxiao Treasure Hall.

Piles of precious materials that Li Changshou could name and could not name were randomly piled up everywhere. In a herb garden wrapped in a few Dharma Arrays, more than ten sealed Spirit Roots were planted using the Mustard Seed Cosmic Shackles method.

The four stone walls were filled with complicated patterns. The jade stone beneath his feet seemed to have been nurtured over countless years. It had a unique texture.

Li Changshou could not find a single Spirit Stone there…

Is this really one ten-thousandth of Senior Lang’s heritage back then?

What attracted Li Changshou’s attention the most was the bookshelf in the corner. There were three to four thick books in the bookshelf, similar to the “yearbook” that he had seen previously.

That should be Senior Lang’s true legacy.

The structure of the hall was extremely simple. It was like a paper box. Although the treasure light around it was rich, it gave people a sense of oppression.

Is the stone tablet surrounded by fog the user manual for Kun Peng?

This…

Fortunately, Kun Peng was a male. Otherwise, Senior Lang would have been nailed to the pillar of shame and criticized for leaving such words.

At the door of the hall, Li Changshou gestured for Fairy Yun Xiao to retreat with him. At the same time, he added two more restrictions on Kun Peng’s essence soul.

In the hall, the paper effigy slowly walked forward. He continued walking for hundreds of feet and arrived in front of the stone tablet.

Li Changshou carefully raised an immortal power and blew it towards the stone tablet. The layer of fog quietly dissipated, revealing the stone tablet that was as tall as an abbot and the dense and neat work on the front of the stone tablet…

“Scram!”

Li Changshou almost spat out a mouthful of saliva. The paper effigy stood in front of the stone tablet in a daze. His main body silently raised his hand and made a smoking gesture. He had the urge to squat down and sigh.

On the stone tablet in front of him…

“Go…”

It was engraved with the word ‘righteous’.

What kind of evil interest does Senior Lang have!?!

“What’s wrong?”

Yun Xiao asked gently, “Is there anything wrong? This place is a little strange. Be careful.”

“It’s fine.” Li Changshou slowly sighed. “This senior of mine… loves to joke.”

After saying that, he slowly pushed his palm forward. The stone tablet slowly rotated, revealing the true inscriptions on the back.

He immediately said…

“Is your first reaction when you saw the words’ righteous’ just now useless? You are indeed a kindred spirit of mine.”

“Don’t misunderstand. The meaning of these words is that I have stayed here for hundreds of years and put in a lot of effort to transform Kun Peng.”

“The content below is recorded in a way that only you and I can understand. Don’t spread it.”

Li Changshou frowned and looked over. Indeed, he saw the pinyin again. There was even a ‘note’ label.

However, Li Changshou could not recover from the shock after reading the contents.

From the books in the Goddess Nuwa’s Book Collection Room to the things recorded there, Li Changshou concluded that Senior Lang should like some wuxia stories.

The “Wedding Robe Divine Art” was a kind of internal energy cultivation technique in the martial arts novels of the blue planet. After the cultivator’s cultivation level increased, he would feel more and more pain. From then on, he would transfer his cultivation level to others to ease his pain. Re-cultivating this cultivation technique could produce twice the results with half the effort. It could really be completed and be used by others.

He did not know how Senior Lang had brainwashed Kun Peng back then and made it cultivate the so-called “Second Essence Soul” technique.

How is this a second essence soul?

This is Senior Lang’s version of the “Wedding Dress Divine Art”!

Kun Peng had spent a lot of effort and did not hesitate to steal the essence of the Primordial Phoenix that had helped him. It was in order to refine a second essence soul and prepare for the final Transcendence.

Kun Peng had nurtured a second Essence Soul in the Primordial Spirit and allowed it to absorb everything that he originally had.

However, what was laughable was that the second essence soul had a huge flaw. It could be controlled by Senior Lang instantly.

To be precise, it should be similar to hypnosis.

Kun Peng did not know anything.

Every time Senior Lang had a thought, Kun Peng would lose its original self and fall into a deep sleep.

In reality, Kun Peng had become a puppet and was casually ordered by Senior Lang.

What a terrifying technique.

What made Li Changshou feel the most emotional was…

Kun Peng cultivated the Second Essence Soul technique not because it was in a desperate situation and was forced to enter the Chaos Sea. Instead, it had started to cultivate this technique when the Demon Court was at its peak.

This demon master had worked hard for hundreds of thousands of years to transform into an even more “perfect” second Essence Soul. Indeed, he possessed stronger mystical abilities and Dharma powers. His Dao realm advanced rapidly.

However, in reality, Kun Peng had given up on itself and become Senior Lang’s puppet.

Those Dao Realm and Dharma powers were secretly given by Senior Lang.

Kun Peng’s original essence soul was actually Kun Peng that had a true self. It was the so-called “old molting” that Li Changshou, Yun Xiao, Bai Ze, and the Golden Roc had sniped.

That was not an old molting, but a true essence soul!

The second essence soul that Kun Peng was most satisfied with was only designed by Senior Lang, Kun Peng Ark…

The main controller.

After Senior Lang died, Kun Peng’s second essence soul obtained some benefits from Senior Lang. For example, the array formations that could transform the Chaos aura into Connate Spirit Qi.

Those should be Lang’s legacy.

According to the records on the stone tablet, Li Changshou only needed to take out the token buried under the stone tablet and recite a “mantra” with it. Kun Peng essence soul would enter another state.

The paper effigy lowered his head and searched the array formation. He successfully touched a circular jade token and carefully weighed it in his hand.

Could it be a scheme?

To be cautious, Li Changshou pondered for a while and left with Yun Xiao and Kun Peng Essence Soul. The paper effigy guarded the place.

A moment later, in front of the Immortal Palace that Fairy Yun Xiao had fainted in previously.

Li Changshou gestured for Yun Xiao to retreat. He activated the Eight-Nine Arcane Art and activated the Great Dao of Equalization. Water-blue light shone around him, and he was naturally on guard.

Senior Lang could not be underestimated.

He could not overestimate Senior Lang’s bottom line.

Li Changshou would not be surprised if Senior Lang played some “big game” and disguised himself as Kun Peng’s second essence soul to ambush him.

As for why the other party wanted to ambush him?

That was the same reason why the other party wanted to leave benefits for him.

The two of them had common characteristics that many living beings of the Primordial World did not have!

For example, he had received nine years of compulsory education.

At that moment, Li Changshou raised the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and summoned the Floating Flame Flag. In his heart, he reminded the Pagoda Master to buck up. He held the two pills in his left palm and held the jade token that he had checked dozens of times to confirm that there was no danger.

Fairy Yun Xiao took two steps forward and stood beside Li Changshou.

The two of them looked at each other. The latter’s eyes were filled with worry. The former’s eyes were filled with joy and suffering.

Li Changshou recalled the contents recorded on the stone tablet. Although Senior Lang’s words were mysterious and full of praise, he could only summarize them in three steps.

Firstly, he had to knock Kun Peng unconscious.

The God-Slaying Spear trembled slightly. Kun Peng essence soul, which had been weakened. interrogated by Li Changshou, and had been heavily sealed, instantly lost consciousness and fainted.

Secondly, he could awaken the mark in Kun Peng’s body.

It was the mark of the promise that Kun Peng had previously taken.

Li Changshou raised his right hand and pointed his sword. He drew a complicated talisman and slowly pushed it towards Kun Peng. Kun Peng’s essence soul quickly returned to the shape of a huge fish. A faint blue stream of light appeared on the surface of the essence soul, as if it contained a small universe.

Putting everything else aside, Senior Lang’s aesthetic standards were quite good. Just Kun Peng essence soul that had been successfully modified had an indescribable beauty.

Art was not about sending stars.

Li Changshou took the opportunity to overcome the discomfort in his heart. He raised the disc in his hand and aimed it at the fish’s forehead. He began the third step.

“Shout loudly at Kun Peng’s second essence soul!”

“Kun Peng’s super evolution! Void Kun!”

Silence followed…

The hall was silent. Fairy Yun Xiao frowned and looked at Li Changshou. Although she did not understand what was going on, she could feel the shame in his heart.

“Aiya!”

Li Changshou felt his entire body go numb. He could not help but stomp his feet. He looked at Kun Peng essence soul in front of him that had not changed at all and almost threw the jade token in his hand out!

Is this really not a self-imposed challenge?

How could he, Taibai Jinxing, do such a thing in front of Fairy Yun Xiao!?!

Senior Lang was the second person in the Primordial World who could break his mental state!

He seemed to have already seen that when he returned, a new line of words appeared on the stone tablet—”When fellow villagers meet fellow villagers, they have to act like hooligans.”

Bastard!

Boom!

The array formation that covered the secret land suddenly trembled. Fairy Yun Xiao pulled Li Changshou with her slender hand and said, “Kun fish.”

Li Changshou looked over and saw the body of the Kun Fish lying quietly in the Chaos Sea suddenly emitting colorful light.

The huge body emitted streams of interweaving immortal light. The immortal light condensed into pitch-black scales that covered every part of the fish’s body…

The fin disappeared and a pair of roc wings appeared.

The fish head shrank slightly. A golden drill that was 50 kilometers long appeared above its head. It contained murderous, bloodthirsty, and ferocious Dao runes.

In fact, the Kun Fish’s mouth was sealed by scales. Then, terrifying shark teeth formed outside the black scales!

On the black armor on the back of the huge fish, eighty-one killing arrays were activated. They could condense the power of the five elements at any time!

In the belly of the huge fish, vortexes were absorbing the aura of Chaos. Most of the Dharma powers that the Kun Fish had consumed in the previous battle were slowly recovering.

This!

The huge fish essence soul of Kun Peng struggled gently, but at that moment, the essence soul seemed to have lost all vitality and was lying quietly.

When the Kun Fish’s huge body completed its “evolution”, a beam of light shone from the forehead of the fish’s essence soul and landed on the jade token in Li Changshou’s palm. A small square frame appeared on the jade token.

“Do you want to start certifying?”

“The certification is completed. You will become the new owner of Kun Peng Ark and obtain all authority.”

Li Changshou took two steps back and floated the jade token in front of him. His eyes flickered as he asked, “What do I have to pay?”

The jade token vibrated slightly. At that moment, the jade token and the essence soul of the huge fish seemed to be one. There was another line of small words in the square frame.

“This command has no prerequisites. If you find the jade token and activate Kun Peng’s super evolution, you can become the new owner of the Ark.”

“Who are you?”

“Unable to complete the search, there is no me.”

Li Changshou frowned and focused. He stood in front of the jade token and fell into deep thought.

Yun Xiao looked at the Kun Fish that had changed drastically outside and then at the scene in front of her. She recalled what she had seen previously and fell into deep thought.

She was…

What did she see?

…

Half a day later, on the back of the Kun Fish.

Li Changshou sat quietly on the meditation cushion and looked at the scenery of the Chaos Sea. He could not help but look at the Primordial Beast under his feet.

It felt… very unreal.

He originally felt that Senior Lang was a very unrestrained senior. He had ended the battle in a sorry state.

He knew that Kun Peng and Senior Lang had a close relationship. He always felt that Kun Peng was Senior Lang’s subordinate. At most, it was Senior Lang’s mount.

Who knew that Senior Lang was so ruthless?

Such a huge Kun Peng and such a ferocious ancient demon master had been tricked to death by Senior Lang’s Thousand-Layered Trick. They had given up on themselves and placed their hopes on their second Essence Soul.

In the end, his second essence soul was transformed into an unconscious “control system” by Senior Lang. Kun Peng itself became the “ark” that Senior Lang mentioned and left it to him.

Li Changshou could not accept the huge amount of information.

However, Senior Lang did not embarrass the people of the blue star. He did not mention anything about avenging his hometown, nor did he label the prices of the gifts.

At that moment, paper effigies were searching outside Kun Peng’s body. Fairy Yun Xiao was searching in the secret place at the side.

Li Changshou sat there quietly. Most of his attention was focused on controlling the paper effigies everywhere.

Li Changshou suddenly felt that he could not understand the game in the Primordial World.

Since the ancient times, layers of schemes, major events, and mighty figures were all involved.

Ordinary living beings were ignorant and only knew to live according to their own desires.

Mortals did not understand the true meaning. They respected the heavens and understood etiquette. They were busy and passed away for dozens of years.

The Qi Refinement cultivators had experienced dangers and struggled bitterly. They wanted to transcend, live forever, and be carefree.

The mighty figures who had crawled to the shore in the river of time looked at the chaotic scene in the river coldly. However, they were lost and could not advance.

Only the Dao Ancestor.

There were only six Saints.

They stood at the peak of living beings and comprehended the Great Dao.

Li Changshou was really confused.

At that moment, he could not be completely sure what Senior Lang was resisting and why he was going against the Heavenly Dao and Dao Ancestor Hong Jun.

Why am I confused?

Li Changshou actually knew very well.

Apart from the dispute between the six Saints, was it the Great God-Conferment Tribulation and the Burning Incense Divine Kingdom of the Western Sect? Had the Saints oppressed ordinary living beings?

No.

They did not care and could not see. Mortals were just a small foundation of destiny.

Had the Heavenly Dao oppressed mortals?

However, the Heavenly Dao was protecting mortals and suppressing Qi Refinement cultivators. The Heavenly Courts adhered to the will of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Emperor had the bottom line to protect the weak.

Then, what was the reason for rebellion?

Was it because there was no place at the highest point in the world, and he had to go against the heavens and squeeze in?

Wouldn’t that be the case? Wouldn’t it cause chaos in the world for his own selfish desires?

What would that become?

Li Changshou stared at the Chaos Sea. He wanted to see some justice in Senior Lang’s actions back then. However, Senior Lang had erased everything and did not give him any reminders.

From that point of view, Senior Lang was a man.

Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore. I still have something to deal with.

Kun Peng’s second essence soul, which was the Ark’s main control ‘system’, had merged with the eighth wisp of Primordial Violet Vapor. Li Changshou did not know what would happen next.

He had to prepare for the worst. At most, he would destroy the ark.

…

At the same time, outside Xuandu City.

“Can’t you find it?”

“The Kun Fish swam too quickly and disappeared from afar. Changgeng and Yun Xiao can’t sense the jade talismans on their bodies.”

A few figures gathered in front of the city wall and discussed worriedly.

Bai Ze whispered, “I sense luck…”

“Mr. Bai.” The Goddess of Golden Spirit frowned and said, “Apart from the great auspicious and ominous events, the Chaos Sea is boundless. If Changgeng and Junior Sister Yun Xiao get lost in it, it will really be troublesome.”

Daoist Duobao, who had just returned to take a look at the situation, persuaded, “Junior Sister, don’t be anxious. Senior Brother Xuan Du has already thought of other ways. The Heavenly Fiend Supremacy is closely related to Kun Peng. As long as Senior Brother Xuan Du captures it, he should be able to find Kun Peng’s hiding place.”

The few of them looked at each other and sighed.

At that moment, the Golden Roc, Zhao Gongming, and the other experts were searching for traces of the Kun Fish in the Chaos Sea.

It would be a lie to say that they were not worried. Li Changshou was devoured, and Yun Xiao used the Qingping Sword to chase after him. It was very easy for them to fall into a predicament.

Daoist Duobao said, “After we finish fighting on Master’s side, we should be able to find the Qingping Sword. It’s useless for us to worry.”

Jin Ling said worriedly, “Master is fighting one against two. I wonder if there will be trouble.”

“Don’t worry…”

“Trouble?”

With a chuckle, the three balls of Chaos aura beside him rippled slightly. A young Daoist walked over with his hands behind his back. Four immortal swords surrounded him, and he was stepping on a square array diagram.

At the same time, two old Daoists appeared on the other side of the Xuandu City.

The three Great Dao expanded, but they were still secretly competing. Among the few experts who were guarding the place, Bai Ze and the Goddess of Turtle Spirit, who had weaker cultivation levels, were pale and felt suffocated.

Although there was no Heavenly Dao support here, the three Heavenly Dao Saints’ Great Dao faced each other. Their power was terrifying!

The three Saints appeared at the same time!

The old Daoist priest, who was sitting cross-legged on the cloud, smiled. It was like a spring breeze, and it was filled with benevolence.

He said, “Fellow Daoist Tongtian, the Immortal Vanquishing Sword Array is really powerful. Junior Brother and I have experienced it this time. I was just passing by with my junior brother. I did not want to harm him. I’ll take my leave for now.”

The Grandmaster of Heaven sneered and said calmly, “It’s a pity that I can’t put you in the array.”

The Daoist guide smiled and shook his head. He turned around with Zhun Ti, who had been smiling, and his figure turned faint.

Suddenly, a breeze blew in Xuandu City without any warning. The power of the three Great Dao of Saints suddenly disappeared.

Daoist Jie Yin, whose figure had already faded, suddenly seemed to be stuck. Two shallow Yin-Yang Twin Fish appeared around him.

The Dao arose from Yin and Yang. It was natural and condensed from virtue. It was the true meaning of morality.

An old Daoist priest had appeared in the sky above the Xuandu City at some point in time. The meditation cushion under him was surrounded by the flames of war. There was no immortal light around him, but the entire Xuandu City had become natural and peaceful. There was no longer any murderous aura.

There were no more waves in the Chaos Sea. The Primordial World was silent.

The incomplete Dao laws returned to themselves, and the Yin and Yang turned invisible.

The six Saints of the Primordial World, I, the Grand Pure One.

The Daoist priest’s smile froze. He said, “Senior Brother Taiqing is actually here…”

Buzz…

A gray light wave surged out from the Grand Pure One’s body and instantly engulfed the entire Xuandu City, covering the words of receiving him.

Then, the Grand Pure One gently flicked his left hand. The black and white Yin-Yang fish bloomed in his palm. As he slowly pushed his palm forward, cyclones suddenly appeared beside Zhun Ti.

The universe became extremely stable, as stable as a cage.

After a while, everything was calm.

The Great Dao intersected. Duobao and the other immortals could not understand what had happened. What kind of technique had Uncle-Master Taiqing used?

Jie Yin smiled and sat quietly in the cyclone. Zhun Ti’s back was covered in cold sweat. The image of the Wonderful Seven Treasures Tree appeared behind him.

The Wonderful Seven Treasures Tree swayed gently and two branches fell off.

If they could observe carefully, they could see that a drop of cold sweat had appeared on the Daoist priest’s forehead…

He looked at the city again. There was no sign of the Grand Pure One.

A wisp of Dao runes flashed in the hearts of the immortals, condensing into two words. They looked at the spiritual platform and carefully thought about it. They thought that it was Li Changshou’s whereabouts. However, they realized that the two words were…

“Passing by.”
