Chapter 306 Angst Pagoda Master Is Here

　　What plan should he use to plot against the Golden Cicada?

　　Of course, he would first lure the cicada out of the mountain, lure it into the array, restrict the cicada’s mystical abilities, and then show the cicada’s weakness, and attack the cicada when it was unprepared. Then, he would kill the cicada and scatter its ashes.

　　Li Changshou understood that it was a crucial battle for him to advance towards the Tushita Palace!

　　However, one thing was for sure. If Li Changshou were to “coincidentally” meet Jin Chanzi, Li Changshou would not be his match in a head-on battle. There was no other reason. Their accumulation of various aspects of cultivation was too different.

　　There was a huge difference between Li Changshou and Jin Chanzi in terms of combat mystical abilities and speed. However, Li Changshou understood very well, the importance of being flexible. He would not force himself to be thick-skinned and really fight with the Six-Winged Golden Cicada. If he did not have enough combat power, he could come up with a plan to gather some. He could set up some array formations and add some schemes.

　　The Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Sect was escorting Li Changshou, while the Connate treasure was protecting him. Li Changshou was actually in an invincible position. What he needed to think about was how to ‘trap the cicada’ and ‘break the defense’. The Great Daoist Master was also worried that Li Changshou would be accidentally killed by the Golden Cicada. This time, he was not stingy. When they went to the West Ocean to set up an ambush, the Great Daoist Master’s mystical ability against Jin Chanzi had given Li Changshou three types of support in defeating the enemy. The Water-Fire Origin Array was used to seal the universe.

　　The Nine-Spirit Mystic Energy Array was used to trap Jin Chanzi and slow him down. There were also two Nine Revolutions Golden Pills.

　　The Great Daoist Master did not have any numinous treasures. After all, he could borrow the Taiji Painting, the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, the Wind-Fire meditation cushion, the Earth-Fire Flag, and many other treasures of Ren School at any time… There was no choice. Li Changshou was not an official member for now. He could only take advantage of the trial card given by an official member…

　　When the Great Daoist Master waved his sleeve in the air and personally set up two array formations, he hid the two array formations in a desolate forest where the West Ocean and the Aparagodānīya Continent intersected… “Changshou, receive the pagoda!” The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du shouted softly. He held the exquisite Heaven And Earth Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and pushed it gently, sending it to the top of Li Changshou’s head.

　　The mysterious aura around the three-inch-tall pagoda scattered and emitted colorful rays of light that enveloped Li Changshou.

　　It was a supreme-grade defensive numinous treasure, one of the strongest treasures in the world, the Heaven Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Pagoda!

　　Just like that, it landed on his head! At that moment! Li Changshou felt a sense of warmth, peace, and… indescribable gratitude! I, Changshou, am willing to work hard for Ren School and shed my blood to a certain extent! The pagoda vibrated gently. Li Changshou felt a little enlightened. It was as if the pagoda was talking to him, encouraging and comforting him. It made him straighten his chest and face the future bravely… “What are you thinking about? Hurry up! Let go of your mind and let me protect your essence soul.” Huh? Who’s talking? Li Changshou glared at the small pagoda above him.

　　The light around the pagoda seemed to be flickering rhythmically. Wisps of warm aura flowed through Li Changshou’s body, making his immortal power become clearer.

　　The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du stood at the side with his hands behind his back and smiled without saying anything. Li Changshou heard the rough voice, which was not of a specific gender, continue to ring in his heart. It was a voice that Li Changshou was familiar with in his previous life.

　　Why is my mind in turmoil? “I was given to you by Master for temporary use. Don’t think that you can control me with just this bit of Dao Attainment.” “As a disciple of Ren School, you should have some background as a disciple of Ren School. What’s with the fluctuations in your mental state? Where did you come from?” “Today, I, the Pagoda, will protect you. What else can happen?”. “If the Immortal Vanquishing Sword Array does not come, the Pangu Banner will not be activated. If anyone can hurt you, I will write my name backward. Do you believe me?” “You have already been taken care of by the Saint and you are about to become his disciple. Why don’t you have the demeanor of an expert from Ren School? You have completely embarrassed Ren School!”

　　“Look at yourself, can you buck up?”

　　1111

　　Li Changshou felt helpless and turned to look at the Great Daoist Master.

　　The Great Daoist Master turned around and shrugged. However, he did not laugh. The Great Daoist Master said, “Changshou, you have to respect Senior.” “Yes,” Li Changshou answered respectfully. He bowed deeply towards the Heaven Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Pagoda above his head and then relaxed. The small pagoda slowly sank into Li Changshou’s Dao Body. At that moment, the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda was still attacking wildly.

　　“That’s right. I am a numinous treasure. Do you know what a numinous treasure is? Do you know what a mysterious yellow aura is?”

　　“You don’t understand, right? Come, let me tell you slowly.” “I have to start from before the creation of the world…”

　　Li Changshou was rendered speechless. The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “If the numinous treasure has sufficient spirituality, it can naturally communicate with the wielder. Teacher’s treasures have always been by Teacher’s side for a long time. Teacher has also rejected all the communication with them, so they seem to be rather talkative

　　now.”

　　“Great Daoist Master.” Li Changshou was a little flustered. “Why did I hear… a strange accent?”

　　Li Changshou had an answer to that question.

　　“What strange accent? Do you really think that I can speak? Do I have a mouth or something? “This is the voice that I sent to your essence soul through spiritual communication. Your essence soul will understand and condense it on its own. If you don’t even know this, how did you become a Golden Immortal? How old are you? You’re still so naive… Uh, why aren’t you 300 years old yet? That’s fine. You’re just a kid. Don’t worry. I’ll protect you so you can do whatever you want!” His voice was filled with love and concern. It was much gentler than before. Li Changshou pursed his lips and frowned. He had learned something today. “Great Daoist Master,” Li Changshou said, “Why don’t we act out a few retreating scenes?”

　　The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “Hasn’t your plan been completed?”

　　“No matter how much is written on the paper, it’s better to test it out a few more times.” Li Changshou bowed and said, “Great Daoist Master, please grant me my wish.”

　　“Alright.” The Great Daoist Master shook his sleeve. “Tell me, how should we rehearse?”

　　Li Changshou took out a few paper effigies from his sleeve…

　　Two days later…

　　At noon, the warm rays of sunlight shone on the blue sea.

　　In the sky above the West Ocean near the Aparagodānīya Continent, several figures rode a cloud over. The first person had white hair and was wearing a white robe with a smile on his face. He held a horsetail whisk in his hand, and his immortal body emitted a faint Golden Immortal pressure. He was Li Changshou’s Sea God paper effigy. Behind him, there were three silver-armored Heavenly Generals. The three of them had similar auras and were connected. They seemed to be in the Golden Immortal realm. The four figures flew above the West Ocean Dragon Palace on a cloud and headed straight for the Dragon Palace. As soon as they entered the ocean, they heard the dragons roaring. Azure dragons and flood dragons surged out of the magnificent crystal palace and formed a human shape in front of Li Changshou and the others. They bowed to Li Changshou from afar.

　　An old dragon-headed man led the group out and shouted, “Greetings, Sea God. Sea God, please enter!”

　　Li Changshou knew that the dragon-headed elder was the younger brother of the West Ocean Dragon King. He also had a lot of authority in the West Ocean Dragon Palace. After exchanging some pleasantries, Li Changshou and the three Heavenly Generals were led into the West Ocean Dragon Palace.

　　“The Dragon King is already waiting in the hall. Sea God, please head there.”

　　“Okay.”

　　Li Changshou put his hands in his sleeves and laid his horsetail whisk in his arms. He smiled and followed the dragon-headed elder to the main hall of the West Sea Dragon King. The three Heavenly Generals did not enter the Dragon Palace. When he saw the West Sea Dragon King, Li Changshou immediately explained his intentions.

　　“Dragon King, I’m here to ask about something. Have you found any traces of the Primordial Beast that tried to harm the dragon sons and even attacked my incarnation?”

　　That was the first step of the plan to destroy the cicadas — luring the cicada with the Dragon Palace.

　　When the Dragon King of the West Ocean heard that question, he sighed. “I won’t hide it from you, Sea God. I gained nothing.” “Oh?”

　　Li Changshou frowned slightly. “At the very least, we should find out when he sneaked into the Dragon Palace and how he got to know the few of you.”

　　“This…”

　　The West Ocean Dragon King stroked his beard and said, “I have indeed sent someone to investigate this matter. I have also personally asked my son about it. I have indeed found nothing. I only know that the ferocious beast is a Six-Winged Golden Cicada. This ferocious beast is of the metal and water elements. It is good at the mystical abilities of the universe. It had once caused trouble in ancient times and was chased out of the Chaotic Sea. Moreover, there is someone behind this Six-Winged Golden Cicada to conceal the heavenly secrets for him…”

　　What he meant was that he had already pointed out the fact that Jin Chanzi was from the Western Sect. Li Changshou asked again, “Are there really no clues about the whereabouts of the Golden Cicada?”

　　The West Sea Dragon King shook his head slowly and said, “I’ll order my people to search with all their might.”

　　“Forget it. There’s no need to trouble you.”

　　Li Changshou stood up and cupped his hands at the Sea Dragon King. He looked displeased and turned to leave the hall. The West Ocean Dragon King stood up and wanted to persuade him to stay, but he could not say anything… How could the Dragon King not know about the situation in the West Ocean? He was just helpless. If he did not move, he could still maintain his original state and secretly compete. If he moved, the West Ocean Dragon Palace would not be able to recover…

　　Li Changshou walked out of the hall and seemed to have calmed down. He turned around and bowed to the West Ocean Dragon

　　King.

　　He said calmly, “Dragon King, I will settle the scores of Golden Cicada injuring my incarnation. Please forgive me for disturbing you today, Dragon King. I’ll take my leave.” Then, he turned around and left, writing the word ‘dissatisfied’ on his face.

　　“Well….”

　　The West Ocean Dragon King could only sit on the throne and sigh softly. However, he could not do anything.

　　At the same time, in a corner of the West Ocean Dragon Palace, an Immortal Flood Dragon soldier stared at Li Changshou’s back as he left. A ferocious glint flashed in his eyes… After leaving the Crystal Palace, Li Changshou met up with the three Heavenly Generals. One of the Heavenly Generals asked, “Sea God, have you found any traces of that ferocious beast?” “The West Ocean Dragon Palace did not manage to find anything.” Li Changshou sighed. “I’ve troubled the three of you to make a trip. I thought that the Dragon Palace would take this matter seriously. I didn’t expect it to be just this.”

　　Another general said, “Sea God, the Marshal injured that ferocious beast that day. Now is the best time to find him and bring him bad luck!”

　　“What’s so good about bullying the incarnation of the Sea God? The Marshal of that day severely injured him with just a glance. Today, the three of us are here. We must let this ferocious beast die!” “That’s right. This ferocious beast is cunning. It bullies the weak and fears the strong. It should really be killed!” “Alright,” Li Changshou said. “Why don’t the three of you follow me to the place where I met the ferocious beast and see if you can find any clues?”

　　The three days passed peacefully. The four of them left the West Ocean Dragon Palace and rode a cloud towards the distance.

　　Had he taken the bait?

　　In a dark corner, Li Changshou muttered to himself and used his immortal senses to observe his surroundings. The pagoda master’s voice suddenly sounded in his heart.

　　“Little fellow, you’ve been targeted. Is that the ferocious beast you’re looking for?” “He has three pairs of wings and dyed himself golden. He is following behind. After transforming, he is quite handsome.” Li Changshou was shocked. Although he could not detect any traces of Jin Chanzi, the words of the Saint’s numinous treasure could not be faked. This Golden Cicada was really fearless. Moreover, its immunity to the “provocative method” was almost zero… Li Changshou was not in a hurry. He followed the plan.

　　He and the three Heavenly Generals quickly arrived at the sea area where he had encountered Jin Chanzi previously. They searched carefully there…

　　The search was fruitless.

　　Just as Li Changshou had expected, Jin Chanzi did not appear directly. Instead, he continued to hide in the dark and seemed to be hesitating. Then, he would add two more fires. Li Changshou said, “The three of you, if you continue searching like this, it will be like finding a needle in a haystack. He had vomited a lot of blood here previously, but now, it’s hard to find his aura.” A Heavenly General asked, “Sea God, what should we do?” “I plan to go to the spiritual mountain of the Aparagodānīya Continent and ask the Western Sect about this matter,” Li Changshou said. “The Western Sect is competing with the Heavenly Courts for the dragon race. This Golden Cicada actually attacked me directly. It’s too overbearing. At the end of the day, I still am a disciple of Ren School. I really want to ask the people of the Western Sect if the ferocious beast that they raised has any manners!” A ferocious beast they raised?

　　At the bottom of the sea, in a certain crack in the universe, the veins on the back of the delicate-looking young Daoist’s hand bulged. The corners of his mouth twitched continuously, and the ferocious glint in his eyes became even sharper! On the surface of the sea, Li Changshou and the three Heavenly Generals rode a cloud and headed towards the Aparagodānīya Continent.

　　In the spatial rift, Jin Chanzi’s expression changed several times. Although he was angry, he was still weighing the pros and cons.

　　If he let the Sea God and the others go to the spiritual mountain to cause trouble, what would happen to him?

　　However, while Jin Chanzi was thinking, he subconsciously followed them secretly. He was not worried that he would be exposed.

　　Jin Chanzi could naturally tell that the Sea God he was seeing now was still an incarnation and not the Sea God’s main body. Otherwise, he would not have hesitated and would have already killed the other party… Jin Chanzi did not care about the three Heavenly Generals at all. Not long after, Jin Chanzi made a decision. I can’t let them go to the spiritual mountain. Even if it doesn’t affect me, I’m afraid that the Deputy Sect Masters will blame me for being incompetent and affect the matter of me becoming a disciple. A ferocious ray of light shone in Jin Chanzi’s eyes. At the same time, Li Changshou felt a headache…

　　At that moment, the pagoda master, who was hiding in his Dao Body, was using the traditional skills of Ren School’s numinous

　　treasures…

　　He was nagging “Why are you hiding? Turn around and fight. With me around, what are you afraid of?” “This is just a ferocious beast in the Zenith Heaven realm. It can’t even be considered a quasi-saint. How can he hurt you?” “Think about it. In the past, the Demon Emperor was considered a top-notch figure. I protected the Great Daoist Master, but didn’t I also provoke the Demon Emperor a few times to the extent that he could not retaliate?” “You are from Ren School, do you understand?”

　　Then…

　　In the darkness, Li Changshou tried his best to maintain his smile and try his best not to be affected by the pagoda. After all, being scolded by the pagoda in such a manner was something that others could not envy…

　　Li Changshou could not help but imagine that scene.

　　During the ancient battle, the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda was on top of the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du’s head and he also had the Taiji Painting to back him up. He wielded the Heaven and Earth Ruler and stepped on the Wind-Fire meditation cushion. He fought with the emperor of the demons and caused the world to tremble.

　　In reality, in the Great Daoist Master’s heart… The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda said, “Kill him! Do it! Yin-Yang Reincarnation! Open up! Open up! Eldest Disciple, can you do it?!” The Taiji Painting said, “Don’t save him any face! Hit his East Emperor Bell! If this little bell doesn’t follow his elder brother and second brother, how can it be impressive just by assisting a Demon Emperor?”

　　The Heaven and Earth Ruler said, “I’m not a treasure but I can still move him.”

　　Wind-Fire meditation cushion said, “He’s following a few big brothers. It’s very suitable.” Li Changshou’s Adam’s apple bobbed. For a moment, he could not bear to look at it. He quickly erased the images in his head to prevent himself from being possessed.

　　He suddenly heard the Pagoda Master shout again. “He’s coming. He’s about to attack. Turn around and attack him!”
