Chapter 265 The West Makes Concessions! The Power of the Underworld is in Hand!
The Supreme Sage here is one of non-action and non-contention.
But now, these Jieyin and Zhunti have actually bullied his eldest disciple. If he doesn't step in, wouldn't he be disgracing the reputation of the head of the Three Pure Ones?
Not far away, Jieyin and Zhunti's expressions turned grim when they saw the Three Pure Ones descend.
"hateful!"
"Why are these Three Pure Ones everywhere?"
"This Niu Ben is merely a disciple of the Supreme Lord; is such a grand display necessary?"
Zhunti was secretly indignant.
Unexpectedly, the three holy beings of the Three Pure Ones would descend upon this place at the same time.
Jieyin frowned, his expression somber.
This is a rare opportunity, and the benefits of letting the Western Church take control of the underworld are self-evident.
Who would have thought that all three Qing masters would come, clearly there to support Niu Ben.
The Styx Ancestor was completely dumbfounded upon seeing this.
Just a moment ago, he was very worried about this.
After all, if the Western Religion were to seize control of the Underworld, he would likely gain nothing from it.
Just when they were wondering what to do, the Three Pure Ones all appeared.
Meanwhile, in the outer heavens, at the Nuwa Palace.
"Um?"
"The Three Pure Ones... have they all gone to the Blood Sea?"
The sage Nuwa exclaimed in surprise, her face filled with astonishment.
With such a commotion erupting from the sea of blood, she was naturally keeping a close eye on it.
"It seems that Niu Ben holds a very important place in their hearts!"
With that, Nuwa let out a long sigh.
Looking back, because of Xihe and Changxi's affair, the demon race and the bull race were confronted in the Ten Thousand Mountains.
In the end, she had no choice but to leave the stage.
At the critical moment, the Three Pure Ones descended together, forcing the demon race to yield and retreat.
Even she, a saint, was "extorted" by Niu Ben on the spot by a primordial spiritual treasure as compensation.
Now, seeing the Three Pure Ones descend upon the Blood Sea to support Niu Ben, Nuwa felt a sense of déjà vu.
At this juncture, powerful figures from all sides are also paying close attention to the situation in the Blood Sea.
Everyone was shocked to see the five great sages gathered together.
"this?"
"What's going on?"
"All five sages have descended upon the Netherworld Blood Sea?"
"The ancestral witch Houtu transformed into a being of reincarnation and opened up the underworld, yet she attracted such attention from a sage?"
"Could it be that they're vying for control of the underworld's cycle of reincarnation?"
"..."
Many powerful figures had their doubts.
At this moment, the sea of blood is located.
After a brief silence, the guide forced a smile and said:
"My three senior brothers."
"You're all here!"
"The affairs of the underworld are of great importance and are not the concern of any one family or faction."
"Moreover, this underworld was newly opened and was an unclaimed land."
"How about... we discuss it together and split it 30/70?"
"We in the West only need 30% of the power to aid in education, and the rest..."
Before Jieyin could finish speaking, Tongtian Shengren interrupted him, saying:
"Pooh!"
"Who do you think you are, to presume to share the profits with me?"
"If you know what's good for you, go back to your Western alley!"
"If you dare utter another word, I'll show you the power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation today!"
As he spoke, four phantom images of divine swords suddenly appeared behind the Sage of Heaven.
The mere fluctuation of energy caused the space itself to distort and deform.
When Jieyin was so abruptly interrupted by Tongtian, his anger was ignited, but he dared not retaliate.
After all, his and Zhunti's strength alone was not enough to contend with the Three Pure Ones.
Just then, Zhunti, unable to swallow his anger, took a step forward and glared furiously at Tongtian:
"Reaching for the heavens!"
"You...you're going too far!"
Upon hearing what Zhunti said, Tongtian sneered:
"Ha ha!"
"So what if I bully you?"
"If you're not satisfied, how about we have a fight?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an overwhelming fighting spirit erupted from Tongtian's body.
The phantom images of the Four Immortal Swords hovering behind him shook the void, exuding a chilling aura.
Their posture suggested that they might start a fight at the slightest provocation.
Of the three Pure Ones, Tongtian is known for his fiery temper and formidable fighting prowess.
Once the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is unleashed, it cannot be broken without the power of the Four Sages!
He didn't take the two great saints of the Western religion seriously.
"you……"
Seeing Tongtian's posture, Zhunti's face turned ashen with anger, but he dared not provoke Tongtian any further.
After all, Tongtian is the kind of person who will act without hesitation!
Seeing that Zhunti was being overwhelmed by Tongtian's imposing aura, Jieyin took a deep breath, stepped forward, and fixed his gaze directly on the Supreme Sage, saying with a smile:
"Senior Brother Taishang."
"Since the ancestral witch Houtu has already left his will regarding the ownership of the authority over the underworld, and young friend Niu Ben has also gained the approval of his three senior brothers, we in the West will no longer insist on it."
"only……"
At this point, Jieyin paused briefly, then added:
"However, with the establishment of reincarnation, the underworld came into being."
"This is an unparalleled act of merit that benefits all living beings in the primordial world."
"The purpose of my Western religion is to save all sentient beings and relieve them from suffering."
"I wonder if, in consideration of our past relationship, my senior brother could reserve a place for me in the Western Paradise within the Underworld?"
"It's also so that we can do our part in this cycle of reincarnation."
As he spoke, Jieyin glanced at Niu Ben, seemingly casually, and then continued:
"Back then, my senior brother personally came to my Western Paradise to ask for one of the Five Elements Flags."
"Although I knew that the flag was connected to the West, I did not make things too difficult for it. I only asked for a promise to help in the future."
"Today, I do not ask my senior brother to repay the karmic debts, but only hope that you will do me a favor."
Upon hearing this from the Sage of Guidance, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the Supreme Sage.
Earlier, Niu Ben approached him, wanting him to exchange the Azure Lotus Banner, one of the Five Primordial Banners, from the Western Sect.
The Supreme Lord readily agreed and accompanied Niu Ben to the Western Realm.
Finally, Jieyin gave the Azure Lotus Banner to Taishang, but did not ask Taishang to exchange it for any treasure. Instead, he asked Taishang to make a move in the future.
What the Supreme Lord did not expect was...
It's surprising that Jieyin would bring up this matter at this time.
After a moment's thought, the Supreme Sage turned his gaze to Niu Ben.
The meaning was clear: let Niu Ben make the decision.
If Niu Ben does not agree, Taishang will naturally not pay attention to Jieyin and will find an opportunity to repay this karmic debt in the future.
Receiving the gaze of the Supreme Sage, Niu Ben understood its meaning and thought to himself:
"They really know how to pick their timing for this 'guidance'!"
"To think that the Five Banners of the Primordial Heaven would be brought up at this time."
After a moment's thought, a resolute glint flashed in Niu Ben's eyes, and he said:
"The Sage who guides us is compassionate and cares for all living beings; Niu Ben admires him greatly."
"Since the Sage is willing to assist the Underworld, and I am the future Lord of the Underworld, how can I refuse?"
At this point, Niu Ben paused briefly, then added:
"That's fine."
"Within the structure of the underworld, I intend to set up eighteen levels of hell to punish evil and promote good, and to settle karmic debts."
"I am willing to give up the last level of the eighteenth level of hell to the West."
"Let the Western religion govern it, and let it perform the duties of converting the most evil souls within it, eliminating their karmic obstacles, and thus completing the work of reincarnation."
"What is the Sage's opinion?"
