Chapter 406 Intercepting Guangchengzi
A green light was like lightning, cutting through the sky, and finally landed lightly at the foot of an unknown fairy mountain shrouded in clouds and mist.
Surrounded by towering ancient trees and swaying green bamboos, it seems like the most tranquil pure land in the world.
As the green light gradually dissipated, a young man in a green shirt and with a handsome face slowly appeared. It was Luo Shu who left the Sun Star.
Luo Shu patted his robe lightly, looked around, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but a trace of helplessness flashed between his brows:
"System, I just finished the last task, and you can't wait to send me another one? You really don't want me to rest for even a moment!"
"Tell me, what is the mission this time?"
[Ding! The mission has been issued, please check it as soon as possible! ] A crisp system prompt sounded in Luo Shu's sea of consciousness.
Hearing the system prompt, Luo Shu's mind moved and he probed into the sea of consciousness. He saw the contents of three task options appearing on the system panel.
[{Choice 1}: Return to Yufu Mountain immediately and preach to your disciples for five years! {Reward}: A medium-grade spiritual root - a girl fruit tree! ]
[{Choice 2}: Go to the Golden Spirit Mother's temple and listen to her preaching for three years! {Reward}: A top-grade spiritual root - a silver leaf grass! ]
[{Choice 3}: Intercept Guangchengzi on the way and stop him from going to Shouyang Mountain to report the news! {Reward}: Information about the top-grade innate spiritual root - Five-needle pine! ]
Luo Shu held his breath and carefully browsed the contents on the system panel, secretly comparing the pros and cons of the three tasks in his mind.
His eyes wandered between the lines, sometimes solemn, sometimes flickering, obviously he was thinking deeply.
"Task one, return to Yufu Mountain to preach for five years..." Luo Shu muttered softly, frowning slightly, "Although it can improve the cultivation of my disciples, five years is too long for the current Conferred God Tribulation."
He shook his head, obviously not happy with this option, and then turned his attention to the second task.
"Task 2, go to Master's dojo and listen to His teachings for three years..." Luo Shu pondered for a moment, "Although I benefited from listening to Master's teachings, for me now, the benefits are really minimal."
"Besides, three years is not a short time. Moreover, during the catastrophe, anything is possible. Even if things are developing in a good direction now, there is no telling what will happen next."
At this point, Luo Shu also ruled out Task 2. The only thing left was Task 3.
"As for mission three..." Luo Shu took a deep breath and stared at the option, "Intercept Guang Chengzi halfway and stop him from going to Shouyang Mountain to report the news. The reward for this mission, the information about the top-grade innate spiritual root - five-needle pine, is undoubtedly the most tempting."
Moreover, as long as it is not beneficial to the Chan sect, Luo Shu is willing to try it.
"System, why did Guangchengzi go to Shouyang Mountain to report the news?" Luo Shu asked puzzledly.
After a while, the cold and mechanical voice of the system sounded in Luo Shu's mind.
[Ding! Guangchengzi, Chijingzi, Juliusun, and Cihang Zhenren went down the mountain to help Jiang Ziya attack Shang. Unfortunately, they ran into the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and Sanxiao who were invited down from Jin'ao Island by Wen Zhong.]
[Guang Chengzi fought against the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and was defeated. If Xuandu had not come to his aid, Guang Chengzi would have died long ago! ]
[Next, the three sisters set up the Nine Bends of the Yellow River formation outside the Jiepai Pass, and Chi Jingzi, Ju Liusun, and Cihang Zhenren joined forces to break the formation. However, the three of them were not strong enough, and the three sisters used the Hunyuan Golden Bowl to cut off the three flowers on their heads. ]
[What's even worse is that after Chi Jingzi and his two companions were crippled, they were blasted into thin air by Bi Xiao's attack, and died! ]
Luo Shu felt a little surprised as he listened to the system telling him about what had happened on the Shang Zhou front during this period.
He didn't expect that Chi Jingzi, Juliusun and Cihang Zhenren were actually killed by Bixiao in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation.
You know, in the plot of the previous life, although the Three Sky Fairies used the Hunyuan Golden Bowl to cut off the three flowers on the top of the Twelve Golden Immortals and turned them into mortals, they did not kill them.
Now, the plot has obviously changed dramatically.
"What happened next?" Luo Shu asked impatiently.
[Ding! Next, Guangchengzi was furious and wanted to avenge Chijingzi and the other two. However, he was stopped by Xuandu, who told him to go to Shouyang Mountain and report what happened at Jiepai Pass to Yuanshi Tianzun! ]
"Yuanshi Tianzun is in Shouyang Mountain?" Luoshu confirmed again.
[Ding! Yes, the reason why Xuandu came down the mountain to help the Chan Sect was because Yuanshi Tianzun went to Shouyang Mountain to seek help from Taishang Laozi.]
[In order to support the Chan Sect, the Supreme Laozi specially sent Xuandu down the mountain to help. 】
Hearing this, Luo Shu couldn't help but sneer in his heart: "So that's how it is! Taishang Laozi is really in cahoots with Yuanshi Tianzun. They are going to completely suppress Jiejiao!"
"System, where is Guangchengzi now?" Luo Shu asked.
[Ding! Guangchengzi is rushing to Shouyang Mountain at this time, and it is estimated that he will arrive in half a day! ]
Luo Shu heard this, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. Half a day was enough for him.
He must intercept Guangchengzi halfway during this period of time. If possible, he will give Yuanshi Tianzun another great gift.
"System, select task three!" Luo Shu's voice was firm and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for choosing mission three! Please complete the mission as soon as possible! ]
The system's voice sounded in Luo Shu's sea of consciousness, with a hint of mechanical yet encouraging meaning.
"System, please tell me the exact location of Guang Chengzi."
[Ding! This system has started to search, please wait...]
The system's voice paused for a moment, then continued:
[Ding! Guangchengzi is in the...]
Luo Shu listened to the system's report and already had something in mind.
"Okay, got it." Luo Shu nodded, a sly light flashed in his eyes, "This time, I won't just intercept him."
Before he finished speaking, his figure flashed, turned into a stream of light, and disappeared on the spot.
……
Shouyang Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, and has an ethereal aura.
At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes were fixed on the rolling sea of clouds in the distance, his brows were furrowed, as if a heavy burden was pressing on his heart.
Taishang Laozi was standing on the side of Yuanshi Tianzun, and at this time he also felt something strange about Yuanshi Tianzun.
He turned around gently and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun with the same deep gaze, with a barely perceptible hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
Because he knew that what Yuanshi Tianzun was thinking about must be the uneasiness and premonition that had become increasingly stronger in recent days.
After a while, Yuanshi Tianzun sighed softly, breaking the silence:
"Brother, I'd better go back to Kunlun Mountain first. I've been feeling uneasy these past few days, as if something important is about to happen, but I can't figure out the cause. This feeling really makes me feel uneasy."
Upon hearing this, Taishang Laozi turned around and looked at Yuanshi Tianzun with a deep gaze, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes:
"Well, in that case, you can go back and take a look. If there is any need, you can send someone to inform us."
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded slightly and cast a grateful glance towards Taishang Laozi:
"Thank you, big brother! I will find out the reason as soon as possible. If necessary, I will not hesitate to help."
After saying this, Yuanshi Tianzun’s figure flashed and turned into a stream of light, instantly disappearing at the top of Shouyang Mountain, leaving only a faint fairy air lingering in the air.
Taishang Laozi watched Yuanshi Tianzun leave, but he did not relax in his heart.
He sighed softly, and looked at the rolling sea of clouds again, secretly thinking about the future situation in his heart.
