My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 705 – Changshou Is Worried

Chapter 705: Changshou Is Worried

Perfected Yu Ding said, “My master, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning.”

The old Daoist priest who called himself Ti Deng snorted coldly and did not say anything. He went straight into the tent and was led to the main seat by Guang Chengzi. Jiang Shang stood up and gave up his seat.

Tsk, this lantern that came from nowhere did not steal the limelight.

At that moment, Ji Fa thought to himself,

‘Previously, these immortals were still bragging that Chan School is already a huge sect in the Three Realms. Why are they so respectful when they see Daoist Yiye?’

‘Forget it, forget it. If not for them, my Zhou Nation would be in danger. Even if you make me give up my seat, I can’t hesitate today.’

‘Yes, I’ll find a topic to add later and let this Daoist know that I’m the one in charge of this place.’

Ji Fa heard it again…

Outside the five continents, in a Minor Chiliocosm that focused on the power of fire and earth, Li Changshou sat on the gray volcanic rock and smiled as he watched Truth Listener explain with all its might. At that moment, the Zhou army and the Shang army were in a state of chaos.

“Alright, stop prying into the hearts of mortals.”

Li Changshou waved his hand and smiled. “This Daoist Ti Deng has already appeared. I should go back.”

Truth Listener immediately trembled. It, who had been beaming with joy just now, was now extremely nervous.

“Lord Taibai Jinxing, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. This time, I really did not manage to find out any rumors about Maitreya.”

Li Changshou smiled and nodded. He rode a white cloud and carried Truth Listener into the sky.

He said, “It’s fine. I should be able to meet him on the way back.”

“Huh?”

Truth Listener could not help but be stunned. After careful thought, it immediately understood something and looked at Li Changshou in fear.

If he wanted to compete with this person, his master and Maitreya would not be enough…

As a divine beast, although it did not have the great mystical ability of the best of the Auspicious Beast World, Bai Ze, to avoid danger, it could barely be considered “smart” because it could hear the thoughts of living beings.

If this trip was not to find Maitreya’s whereabouts and he had arrived in such a remote dimension, then…

Deceive the dog and kill it?

Truth Listener trembled a few times. Its eyes were misty.

It knew that a divine beast like itself was the most feared by experienced schemers like the Lord Taibai Jinxing who liked to devise schemes.

However, it rarely heard Lord Taibai Jinxing’s thoughts!

Moreover, as Lord Taibai Jinxing’s cultivation level increased, it could not hear anything even if it listened with all its might!

Truth Listener had obtained some information through various channels and methods. It was understood that the righteous god of the human race was playing chess with the Dao Ancestor…

How ruthless would a big shot who could compete with the Dao Ancestor be!?!

It’s over, it’s over. The more it thought about it, the more it felt that Lord Taibai Jinxing had tricked it to take care of his master’s senses and not let him be too sad.

What should I do?

I can’t defeat him nor escape.

Even if he wanted to shout for help, who in the Three Realms could stop Lord Taibai Jinxing’s butcher knife?

“Yes?”

Li Changshou turned to look at Truth Listener and said calmly, “Why are you hiding behind?”

Truth Listener trembled as it leaned forward. It wanted to ask, but it was afraid that it would be its death warrant. It could only keep thinking about its survival plan.

Li Changshou rode a cloud and flew out of the sky. At that moment, he was proficient in opening the door and escaping. He was naturally confident and calm.

The galaxy in the void was rather brilliant. The miniature worlds looked like spiral galaxies from afar.

He said, “Truth Listener, when were you born? In ancient times?”

“In the ancient times, to be specific, at the beginning of the ancient times,” Truth Listener hurriedly answered.

Li Changshou nodded slowly and smiled. “As I understand the Heavenly Dao more, I have some interesting deductions. The Heavenly Dao has deduced the three thousand Great Dao that constituted those at the bottom of the Primordial World. It has grasped all the rules of the world, but it was not omniscient and omnipotent. It has always been lacking. For example, the heart of a living being. The Heavenly Dao cannot deduce the heart of living beings, is that so?”

With a gulp, Truth Listener whispered, “Can we change the topic?”

“No.”

“This, this.” Truth Listener was about to cry from anxiety. “The Heavenly Dao is not a small living being. You escaped. I’m just a small mount. I can’t afford to be watched by the Dao Ancestor.”

Li Changshou could not help but laugh. “You’re indeed well-informed.”

Truth Listener raised its claw and silently hit itself twice. It lowered its head and sighed softly. “Lord Taibai Jinxing, if you want to kill me, can you give me a chance to explain?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Guess what I wanted to say just now.”

Truth Listener smiled bitterly and said, “If I’m right, you will naturally think that I can hear your thoughts and kill him with one palm…”

“Just guess,” Li Changshou said seriously. “If I want to kill you, I actually have thousands of ways. I don’t have to come here with you to kill you. I came here just to be far enough from the five continents.”

“Are you trying to use this method to lure Maitreya out?”

“I have to try eventually,” Li Changshou said. “Maitreya is now working for the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao does not want me to participate in the next God-Conferment matter. It will naturally stop me from returning to the five continents. If Maitreya wants to hide, it will be difficult for me to find him with the protection of the Heavenly Dao. However, when the Heavenly Dao wants to use Dharma treasures, it will naturally think of Maitreya.”

Truth Listener was silent…

Then why did you bring me out?!

Of course, he did not dare to ask that. Although Lord Taibai Jinxing claimed that he was not an evil god, the actual situation was.

He understood everything.

Li Changshou said, “I want to take this opportunity to ask you something. If you don’t answer truthfully, there’s no need to return to the Reincarnation Pagoda.”

Truth Listener immediately perked up. Every strand of hair was listening to Li Changshou.

Li Changshou asked, “Where did the divine beasts come from? Why did they appear?”

Truth Listener was stunned.

H-how does he know why I was born?

The auspicious cloud that it was born from was not a living being. It was just a mass of dense spiritual energy.

“As expected of Lord Taibai Jinxing.” Truth Listener raised its front claws and gave him a thumbs-up. “This question has shed light on the true essence of living beings and the essence of divine beasts! Well… Alright!”

Li Changshou glanced at it. “Cut the crap. I still remember the enmity between us.”

Truth Listener was about to cry. “We really can’t answer that. You should ask Senior Bai Ze about this. Senior Bai Ze was a Connate mighty figure who later became an auspicious beast. He was also called a divine beast.”

Li Changshou said, “Since ancient times, everything related to gods is related to the Heavenly Dao sequence. Even the Ancestral Magi were no exception. The Water God Gonggong and the Fire God Zhurong had once left imprints in the Heavenly Dao because they had grasped the power of laws. You seem to have been known as a divine beast since ancient times, right?”

Truth Listener hurriedly said, “Could it be that you suspect that I’m related to the Heavenly Dao?”

“Otherwise,” Li Changshou said calmly, “How can your mystical ability be realized by listening to the hearts of all living beings?”

Truth Listener was silent…

This was the second time it was stunned.

Truth Listener suddenly had a feeling that the person who understood it the most was not itself, but the young human in front of it who had clearly reached an extremely profound Dao realm.

“Lord Taibai Jinxing, I really don’t know about this matter.” Truth Listener sighed and said, “I… really don’t know what to do with your question.

At the beginning of my memories, I was in a cloud and slowly floating in a Chiliocosm. The spiritual energy in the world gathered towards me. From then on, I could already hear the voices of living beings in a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers.

When I left the clouds, I saw a foot-long little beast wandering in the world.

The problem is that I can’t close my mystical abilities. It seems to be a part of me. I have to listen to these thoughts.

If I hear any malicious remarks about me, I will leave on my own. I gradually understand the evil of the human heart and the complexity of living beings. When I return to my senses, I have already reached the edge of the trichiliocosm.

I want to go to the Chaos Sea. I don’t like to hear the thoughts of all living beings.

There are too many dark, sinful, and muddy things inside…

However, the Chaos aura makes me chicken out. We rely on the living beings of the Primordial World. Even if we can resist the Chaos aura, if we don’t have Kong Xuan’s Five-colored Divine Light, which is like a heaven-defying mystical ability, we will be exiled in the Chaos Sea.

I’m afraid of death. I stopped in a small world and distanced myself from living beings. I slept coldly.

When I woke up, I met my master…”

Li Changshou listened to Truth Listener’s explanation slowly and analyzed the possible logical loopholes.

Truth Listener was attracted by Ksitigarbha’s Stainless Dao heart and obtained a rare peace beside him.

At first, Ksitigarbha did not think about how to get a mount. He felt the pain of Truth Listener listening to the minds of all living beings. He used all his wisdom to help Truth Listener refine the method to close its mystical abilities.

As the local Tibetans wanted to continue training, Truth Listener jumped up and followed. It bit the hem of Ksitigarbha’s trousers and took the initiative to offer an immortal contract.

“From then on, I persuaded Master not to return. There are not many good people in the Western Sect.

However, Master didn’t listen…”

Truth Listener sighed slowly, its eyes filled with memories.

“I’m sorry, Lord Taibai Jinxing. I’ve said too much to you, but I really don’t know what you want to ask.”

Li Changshou nodded and said, “I previously felt that you might be the complementary mechanism of the Heavenly Dao, which is to monitor the hearts of all living beings. At this moment, I can determine that although you are related to the Heavenly Dao, you should not be a hidden pawn.”

Truth Listener was puzzled. “Why do you believe it so easily?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

“You can choose not to believe me.”

As he spoke, Li Changshou silently drew a long sword from his sleeve. Truth Listener did not even need to say anything. It smacked its mouth with its claws.

Li Changshou said, “Continue to listen to the thoughts of the ministers of the Zhou Nation. Let’s see what they are doing. I’ll fish for Maitreya again.”

“Yes.” Truth Listener hurriedly agreed.

Truth Listener felt puzzled.

He had keenly sensed the killing intent in Li Changshou’s eyes previously and felt that he was dead today.

Unexpectedly…

Lord Taibai Jinxing was surprisingly easy to talk to. He did not seem to be an evil god.

“Lord Taibai Jinxing, should I carry you back?”

“There’s no need.” Li Changshou shook his head. “You still have to give your master respect.”

“Hey, you’re flattering me! He’s just immature. He hasn’t been beaten up many times.” Truth Listener smiled and continued to monitor the situation in the five continents. Soon, he said something that sounded like a monologue.

“That Daoist Ti Deng is so impressive. At this moment, he has already given us the method to resolve the Ten Absolute Chain Arrays. He wants Chan School to choose ten immortals to enter the array and use their lives to fulfill the killing intent of the array. It is called a feeding array. Then, he could choose ten experts to enter the array and break the array. Daoist Ti Deng would directly cut off the connection between the array and the great array, allowing the ten experts to kill the ten Heavenly Lords.”

He inhaled sharply…

“Daoist Ti Deng is so sinister. He actually let Chan School choose ten scapegoats to enter the calamity and block the calamity for the ten experts!”

Li Changshou nodded slowly and said, “That’s what the Sixth Saint is like. He’s unscrupulous and will do anything.”

“What is this? Is this the Saint? Burp!”

Li Changshou did not even look at Truth Listener’s stunned expression. He held the Cosmic Ruler with his left hand. The white cloud began to accelerate, and the Cosmic Void rapidly retreated.

Truth Listener was stunned for a while and continued talking.

That was the correct way to use the Truth Listener mystical ability. Although it could not detect experts like the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School, it could detect any mortal in the camp without any pressure.

Daoist Ti Deng, who was also Saint Zhun Ti, wanted to attack the Ten Absolute Arrays.

This is really…

Li Changshou was surprised.

However, it was still in Li Changshou’s plan.

Next was the opening of the show. Li Changshou could only control one direction and try his best to lead the outcome in that direction.

Everything was for the sake of winning when the table was flipped in the end.

“Truth Listener.”

“I’m here!”

“Stay by your master’s side in peace from now on. If you hear anything that you shouldn’t hear at some point in the future…”

“I’m deaf. I didn’t hear anything! Don’t worry!”

“Okay.”

Li Changshou nodded slowly and thought about the plan in the deepest part of his Dao heart again.

When he finally revealed his cards to the Dao Ancestor, Truth Listener was a Dharma treasure that had to exist. It was not appropriate to kill it directly. However, there was a risk of leaving Truth Listener behind.

Therefore, Li Changshou chose to bring Truth Listener out once. Subconsciously, he left a shadow in Truth Listener’s Dao heart.

Moreover, he was worried about Truth Listener. It was part of the “just in case” part of the plan. It was dispensable.

He just had to be steady.

“Go back,” Li Changshou said slowly. “I reckon that Maitreya won’t dare to appear.”

Just as Truth Listener was about to answer, it felt the world around it rapidly move backward.

Li Changshou held the Cosmic Ruler and walked freely in the void without any obstacles.

His deep understanding of the Cosmic Great Dao made Truth Listener glare at him and secretly warn him.

They knew that they couldn’t afford to offend him.

Now, he had to hurry back and guard his master. It was good to bicker and daydream every day.

…

Moreover, when Daoist Ti Deng arrived at the Zhou Army Camp, the soldiers perked up while Guang Chengzi and the other immortals became confident.

Daoist Ti Deng seemed to be a little anxious. He said the method to break the array formation and asked Chan School to choose ten cannon fodder to “block the calamity” in the array formation. Then, he directly broke the array formation.

The twelve Golden Immortals’ reactions to choosing cannon fodder were different.

Yu Ding and Taiyi immediately expressed that they did not participate in the subsequent battle.

However, Guang Chengzi had called out Yang Jian and appointed him to be one of the ten experts who had broken the array formation to deal with the weaker Golden Light Goddess.

Yang Jian looked at his master and Uncle-Master Taiyi. Finally, he cupped his hands and agreed.

After all, he was a disciple of Chan School. He did not want his master to be in trouble.

Then, they were the candidates for cannon fodder.

Perfected Taiyi wanted to say something sarcastic, but he was secretly stopped by Perfected Yu Ding.

Daoist Huang Long only frowned and said, “Isn’t it a little inappropriate to do that?” He was persuaded by Chi Jingzi’s voice transmission.

Wen Shu said, “If we can break the Ten Absolute Chain Arrays, there will be sacrifices.”

“That shouldn’t be said so bluntly.” Ci Hang said gently, “How should we tell our fellow disciples about this?”

The old Daoist priest smiled and did not say anything. He only waited quietly for the immortals of Chan School to make their own decisions.

That feeling was not bad.

Soon, Guang Chengzi retreated with hesitation in his eyes. He said calmly, “Let’s go to the camp and ask, be it Immortal Yu Xu or the itinerant cultivators from the Zhou Camp. If anyone dares to enter the Ten Absolute Arrays, Chan School will naturally give them good treatment.”

The immortals were silent.

Chi Jingzi sighed and stood up. He walked out of the tent with his hands behind his back and sent a voice transmission to the dozens of immortals in the camp.

The ten cannon fodder that blocked the calamity quickly settled down.

The ten experts who were breaking the array formation also decided.

Among the twelve Golden Immortals, Ju Liusun was not around. Yu Ding and Taiyi did not attack. Yang Jian added, and ten experts entered the array to break through.

Guang Chengzi looked at Daoist Ti Deng and asked softly with a smile in his eyes “Senior, are you 100% confident in stabilizing the Chain Array?”

“Of course.” Daoist Tiandeng smiled and said, “On the other hand, if an outsider interferes in this matter, are you prepared?”

Guang Chengzi said, “Chan School should still have that kind of face.”

“Then the matter of breaking the array today is naturally not a problem.”

Guang Chengzi cupped his hands at Daoist Ti Deng and said, “Thank you, Senior.”

Daoist Ti Deng remained silent with his eyes closed. His Dao charm was clear and peaceful.

An hour later…

Zhou Jun put away the battle-exemption token. The drums soared into the sky, and ten streams of light flew out of the Zhou Camp!

Their eyes were filled with nervousness and determination. They pounced towards the Ten Absolute Arrays at the same time.

In the Ten Absolute Arrays, Qin Wan shouted softly. The ten Heavenly Lords were fully prepared!

When the ten streams of light stopped at the array door, the ten Heavenly Lords were slightly stunned. They saw that the ten immortals were not famous and their cultivation levels were not considered powerful.

Why would the array be needed to deal with such an opponent?

They could personally appear to fight and kill on the spot.

“Don’t be careless,” Qin Wan reminded. “They should be here to test us. Just stay. We only need to hold back against the twelve Golden Immortals.”

The ten Heavenly Lords agreed. When the ten immortals reported their names and entered the array, they activated the array formation with all their might.

After a while, screams rose and fell. Ten lonely souls rushed to the God-Conferment Platform.

In the Zhou Army camp, ten figures rode a cloud forward and rushed to the array door that they had chosen previously.

The old Daoist priest with the lantern revealed a smile. He stood in front of the Yuan Gate and waved his sleeve. The muffled sounds of thunder in the Ten Absolute Arrays were endless. The spiritual energy exchange inside was suddenly frozen.

The ten Heavenly Lords were shocked. The chain array that could not be cracked previously had lost its effect!

Just as they were about to discuss a countermeasure, the nine Golden Immortals of Chan School, as well as Yang Jian, the outstanding third-generation disciple, had already rushed into the array door!

“Don’t be afraid!”

Qin Wan gritted his teeth and shouted, “Respond to the enemy and take care of each other!”

The Dao hearts of the other nine immortals of the ten Heavenly Lords sank.
