Tragedy of Fratricide

The Holy Mother of Wudang remained motionless, her delicate hand sweeping across her waist, and a whisk quietly appeared in her hand. She aimed it at the divine light and gently swept it.

With a flick of this three-foot whisk, three thousand white strands of hair fluttered in the wind, rapidly growing longer and instantly transforming into a colossal net that reached the heavens, trapping the divine light within it.

Within the divine light, some people tried to struggle, but as the white silk brushed past, they instantly froze in place, unable to struggle any longer.

You can faintly hear someone sighing and chanting: "My white hair is three thousand feet long, my sorrow is so long, three thousand strands of troubles, three thousand troubles are so long."

Upon seeing that the Holy Mother Wudang had actually taken out the Three Thousand Afflictions and Fluctuations, the Holy Mother Guiling's expression suddenly changed, and she said, "Senior Sister! How could you use the Afflictions and Fluctuations bestowed by our Master to deal with Wuyun Xian and the others!"

The Holy Mother of Wudang's expression darkened slightly. She did not speak, but instead took the net in her hand. The giant net that could have held up the heavens became extremely small and exquisite in her hands.

Within this giant net, five or six strange beasts of various shapes were struggling, including a golden-bearded turtle, a yellow-tusked elephant, and a blue-maned lion.

Each of them was majestic and imposing, exuding extraordinary aura. Their bodies were surrounded by both immortal and demonic energy. They were once powerful demon kings who dominated their respective regions, but now they could only be captured in a net, their lives hanging in the balance.

Seeing that all seven attendant immortals had been captured, Wudang Holy Mother turned around and looked at the furious Guiling Holy Mother, saying calmly, "Junior Sister Guiling, my willingness to leave the mountain was not at your invitation, but because I was restless and wanted to go out and see the world. In addition, it was also to stop this unnecessary trouble."

I understand my master's previous decision. Since it was his action, it must have had a profound meaning. We don't need to understand it; we only need to obey. Now, I have acted before Senior Brother Guangchengzi, which is already an act of kindness in my heart. I do not want to see my fellow disciples punished. I humbly ask for your forgiveness, Senior Brother.

After speaking, the Holy Mother of Wudang bowed deeply to Guang Chengzi. Guang Chengzi did not avoid it and accepted it openly. His smile remained unchanged, and he nodded and smiled, clearly not taking it to heart.

The expression on the face of the Holy Mother Guiling had already become more unpleasant with the words of the Holy Mother Wudang. When she saw that the Holy Mother Wudang actually bowed to the culprit and apologized, she was even more furious!

"You bastard! How dare you do this?! This man frequently bullies our fellow disciples. You are the head of the Shangqing Female Immortals, yet instead of going in, you apologize to this thief. You have utterly betrayed our master's trust!"

The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit's face was extremely distorted. Her once fair and smooth forehead was now covered with blue veins, clearly indicating that she was filled with endless resentment. Even her spirit was filled with demonic energy, and she was showing signs of going into a demonic state!

You must know that this is Kunlun Mountain, the source of the ancestral vein of the East. If Buzhou Mountain supported the entire prehistoric world, then Kunlun Mountain supported the entire East.

Such a blessed land naturally receives boundless blessings from the heavens, and even the ethereal fortune transforms into reality, forever enveloping Mount Kunlun.

The deities born from this are the pinnacle of the primordial world, the true lineage of Pangu, possessing immeasurable merit and boundless blessings. Even the slightest contact with them can keep one away from endless calamities.

In other places, there might be talk of heavenly demons obstructing the path or inner demons disrupting the path, but on Kunlun Mountain, any demon or devil that dares to come will face certain death.

If the Three Pure Ones dared to join forces to attack Buzhou Mountain, they might as well join forces to attack the Thirty-Three Realms of Extraterrestrial Demon Realm. Even those Demon Ancestors dared not come to Kunlun Mountain, let alone these demons.

Under the double protection, many cultivators born on Kunlun Mountain do not know what it means to go into a demonic state, let alone the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit, who is of the Shangqing lineage and has long been able to live forever without disaster or calamity.

But today, the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit was unusually enraged, and in her anger, a demon was born.

This demon is not an external demon, nor a demon from the demon realm, but a demon within oneself, like the opposite of oneself, another version of oneself.

Kunlun Mountain can resist external demons, but if it comes to internal demons, not only Kunlun Mountain, but even the Three Pure Ones would be powerless to help.

Seeing that the Holy Mother Guiling was about to go mad from her demonic possession, the Holy Mother Wudang was truly enraged.

No one knows how much the Holy Mother of Wudang reveres Tongtian. Although she was the first ape to take human form in the primordial world and was blessed with innate good fortune, all laws on Kunlun Mountain perished. Even though she was blessed with abundant virtue, her intelligence was suppressed, and she was no different from ordinary apes. Although she had some supernatural abilities, she was still not worthy of being discussed.

Fortunately, she seized a glimmer of hope and accidentally stumbled upon Tongtian taking Duobao as his disciple. Although she was afraid of this mysterious person, she still mustered up the courage to become Tongtian's disciple and eventually learned the great law, thus gaining liberation.

Her mind had been suppressed, and she was in the form of a wild beast. This was not Tongtian's fault, and the Holy Mother of Wudang naturally understood that it was Kunlun Mountain's doing. Therefore, she only had infinite reverence for Tongtian and no resentment whatsoever.

Despite her profound reverence for Tongtian, she was furious to hear that a junior sister wanted to kill her master. No one knew how angry she was, but she barely suppressed her anger for fear of disturbing Tongtian, causing a tragedy, and hurting her master.

However, upon seeing the current actions of the Holy Mother Guiling, the Holy Mother Wudang was also enraged by her own ignorance and karmic anger, clearly wanting to act on behalf of Heaven and eliminate this disloyal and unfilial traitor.

Seeing that even the Holy Mother of Wudang was about to incite anger, and a tragedy involving fellow disciples was about to unfold, Guang Chengzi finally made his move.

"Hey!"

Guang Chengzi swayed, blocking the two women like a mountain pressing down on them. The Zhenxian Pagoda emitted countless layers of Shangqing Immortal Light above his head, dazzling and infinitely brilliant. The originally simple bronze pagoda body became dazzling, showing the power of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure!

Even though this top-grade innate spiritual treasure is only specifically designed for immortal cultivators and is helpless against demons, its top-grade status means that even the residual power is enough to shatter the infinite universe.

Guang Chengzi's face was solemn, and at the same time, thousands of divine lights of different colors emanated from his body. Within each layer of divine light, there was a truth about hell. The thousands of divine lights were like thousands of hells expanding.

Being within the divine light is equivalent to being in hell. Thousands of hells converge and fall, and even an immortal golden immortal would have their golden nature shattered, struggling in hell like a mortal!

Even the two extraordinary female immortals, the Holy Mother of Wudang and the Holy Mother of Guiling, felt unbearable pain all over their bodies and couldn't help but scream when suddenly illuminated by these hellish divine lights.

One moment it feels like climbing a mountain of knives, the next it feels like falling into a sea of ​​fire; one moment you're being fried in oil, the next you're rolling in an icy river.

Countless torments befell her. Not only was the Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit writhing on the ground in pain, but even the Holy Mother of Wudang was pale and her face was ashen. She was swaying precariously, and her former ethereal demeanor had vanished. Her calm and collected appearance had become more fragile, revealing a completely different kind of beauty.

These two orthodox Shangqing masters could not withstand such torment. Several female immortals, such as Caiyunxian and Hanzhixian, had already fainted from the pain. They were then awakened by the pain and fainted again. In a short period of time, they woke up and fainted more than ten times.

"Guang Chengzi—Senior Brother, quickly—quickly stop your supernatural powers—Junior Sister—I know I was wrong!"

In the end, even the Holy Mother of Wudang could not bear it any longer. She was covered in sweat, her hair was disheveled, her eyes were lifeless, and she was panting heavily as she begged Guangchengzi to withdraw his supernatural powers.

Seeing that the two had calmed down from their anger, Guang Chengzi put away his Daoist heart and stopped projecting the myriad hellish torments he had suffered onto the hearts of the immortals.

He didn't use any supernatural powers or magic; he simply made these female immortals suffer the same pain he had endured, and it seems the effect was quite remarkable.
