After listening to Huang Shang's narration, the Supreme Saint fell into a long silence.
Seeing the Supreme Saint fall into silence, Feng and others became increasingly alert, and they would take action directly if they noticed anything was wrong.
"I see... No wonder the three of us always vaguely feel that something is wrong..."
However, after being silent for a long time, the Supreme Saint suddenly let out a long breath, and said solemnly at the same time: "Use the heaven and the earth as the chessboard, the common people as the pawns, and the saints as the generals. Finally, sacrifice all living beings and revive them."
Self...ah, what a big game of chess, what a ruthless heart."
As the pinnacle of this world and the saint closest to the way of heaven, the Supreme Saint had actually faintly noticed something was wrong a long time ago, but after all, he was limited to this world and could not see beyond this world, so although
He vaguely sensed something was wrong, but he was unable to truly break through the situation in this world. This was one of the reasons why he stayed in Taiqing Temple in seclusion all year round.
Especially this year, he obtained part of the remains of the Tree of Destiny, and attempted to use these fragments to help him break through the obstacles of fate and find the truth of the matter.
What I didn't expect was that the truth of the matter would be so cruel.
The so-called Pangu God who sacrificed himself to create a world and was selfless turned out to be an insidious and cunning old monster who refused to die.
And these saints who thought they were transcendent and competing in the world have now become a huge joke.
"If according to what you said, to defeat that guy, someone must first become a saint of heaven, take charge of a world, and let him be reborn...then there is no doubt that I am the best candidate."
The Supreme Saint suddenly smiled freely, then stretched out his hand to stop what Huang Shang was about to say next, and said lightly: "Don't be anxious, wait for me to finish."
Having said this, the Supreme Saint paused slightly, and then continued: "As the saying goes, ants are greedy for life, let alone me. If I have a choice, I naturally don't want to die. But you have to know that there are many people in this world.
Things are more important than your own life and death."
"Life is what I want; righteousness is what I want. You can't have both. You have to sacrifice life for righteousness."
Looking at Huang Shang, who had a complicated expression in front of him, the Supreme Saint smiled softly and said: "Compared with the lives of China and even the people of the world, as well as the inheritance of Taoism, the lives of a few of us seem a bit insignificant. If everything is as you said
As a corollary, if the three of my brothers and I become enlightened, facing that guy's body-stealing control, we will have some resistance to it, and at least we can help you gain a 10% chance of winning."
"Besides, there is another reason."
"That is the Yuanshi Demon."
After thinking about it, the Supreme Saint actually told Huang Shang and others a huge secret: "The three of us and the Yuanshi Demon have actually been friends and enemies from the beginning. Although we sealed it,
That was just part of some plan. We originally wanted to work with the Yuanshi Demon to balance all the forces in the world, and then wait until the critical moment to join forces to deal with the Olympus gods, but we didn't expect that in the end it would be
A combination of circumstances led to the current situation."
"But in the final analysis, the three of us senior brothers and the Yuanshi Demon are all just split from that guy. If that guy wants to regain control of the way of heaven, then he will naturally not let us go. Likewise, conversely,
The Yuanshi Demon now also has a common enemy with us, and with his help, our chances of winning can be improved a bit."
…
At this moment, even Huang Shang and others couldn't help being shocked when they heard the shocking secret told by the Supreme Saint.
They never imagined that the Taoist Sanqing and Yuanshi Tianmo, who had been fighting each other for many years on the surface, were secretly friends and foes.
But if it is true as the Supreme Sage said, then with the help of the Yuanshi Demon, their chances of winning against Pangu will indeed improve a lot!
Just thinking about the price the Supreme Saint had to pay for doing this, Huang Shang's heart was still full of complicated emotions, and he couldn't help but said: "Teacher, I..."
"The teacher knows what you want to say, but it is all the teacher's own choice, and you don't have to feel guilty about it."
The Supreme Sage interrupted Huang Shang's words again and said with a chuckle: "It is said that you can die after hearing the truth in the morning. Compared with being kept in the dark until the last moment and dying in ignorance, the teacher is more willing to do this. At least
This path was chosen by the teacher himself. Speaking of which, the teacher should actually thank you."
Speaking of this, the Supreme Saint gently patted Huang Shang's shoulder and said: "What's more, now our Taoist sect has you as the successor. As long as you are here, the inheritance of our Taoist sect will not be cut off. In this case, then I
Then you can fight with that person with peace of mind."
"...Aren't you afraid that we will deceive you?"
Seeing the irritated look of the Supreme Saint, Depraved on the side finally couldn't help but said: "You are too trusting of people, are you too hasty?"
"I know best the character of my direct disciples. If I don't even have this ability to recognize people, then I deserve to end up in a dismal end."
After hearing the words of the fallen, the Supreme Saint smiled softly and said: "What's more, defeating other saints and claiming the position of heaven is our lifelong wish as saints. Now it's just that you help me to complete this ambition faster."
That’s all. If that’s the case, then why be careless?”
As the Supreme Saint said, even if Huang Shang and others did not reveal the truth for him, sooner or later he would fight with many saints to compete for the position of heaven. Now he is just one step faster with the help of Huang Shang and others
It's just to get to that position. In that case, how can it be rash?
Of course he believed that Huang Shang would not deceive him, but even if Huang Shang and others really deceived him, no matter what he chose, he would not be able to change the outcome.
After all, this is the step he must take.
"teacher……"
After hearing the words of the Supreme Saint, Huang Shang was silent for a long time, and finally took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The disciple is incompetent. If he waits until that day comes, he may not be able to save the teacher's life, but the disciple can guarantee that
, as long as the disciple does not die, the Taoist inheritance will not be cut off. And no matter the outcome, the disciple will definitely make that guy pay a heavy price!"
"Hahahaha, good, good, good!"
Seeing Huang Shang's firm and decisive look, the Supreme Saint also burst out laughing in a rare way: "In that case, let us master and disciples work together to have a good fight with that old and immortal guy. Let's see.
