PDLP Chapter 53 The 5th Village Audience Members Plot for a Way Out
Chapter 53 The 5th Village Audience Members Plot for a Way Out
Haotian blocked Xingchen Daoist's way.
Inside the Wuzhuang Temple.
The group of veteran experts held a meeting, and the discussion entered a crucial moment.
Two crucial questions were presented to the cultivators.
Who will take the lead?
What purpose will be achieved?
After a period of commotion, the cultivators finally brought the issue to its crux.
Leading the way?
This is not a good matter.
It's not so easy to pull someone's head.
This time, they will be facing the Heavenly Emperor, whose strength is unknown.
They might have to take action on the spot.
Taking action on the spot is considered relatively good.
I'm afraid that Haotian will settle scores with me later.
By then, the other cultivators will have dispersed, and the leader will inevitably have to face the situation alone.
But who has the strength to face Haotian alone?
This is also why all the cultivators came to Wuzhuang Temple.
Originally, Zhen Yuanzi possessed the Earth Book, which allowed him to connect with the earth's veins and set up a grand formation.
He is undoubtedly the best candidate to counter Haotian.
But now that Zhen Yuanzi isn't showing up, it's clear he doesn't want to get involved.
Then they would have no choice but to choose another monk.
After a moment of silence, a cultivator suddenly spoke up: "Why don't we make an election?"
Each person recorded their preferred candidate for the alliance leader in the jade slip.
Whoever receives the most support will become the leader of the alliance.
The moment this cultivator uttered the words "Alliance Leader," the other cultivators immediately had different thoughts.
Alliance Leader?
Is this an attempt to form an organization to fight against the Heavenly Court?
But can this really work?
This is an alliance composed of hundreds of Quasi-Saints and Primordial Golden Immortals.
Such a massive force.
Let alone Haotian.
Even a sage would have to be wary of it.
The key question is, how will the Dao Ancestor view this alliance?
He just established the Heavenly Court, and you guys have already formed an alliance.
It's obvious they're going to do the opposite of what he's doing.
If the Dao Ancestor gets angry, things will get very serious.
At best, they imprison the chaos; at worst, they are reduced to ashes.
By confining chaos, one can also wipe the slate clean.
Aren't you worried that Haotian will turn against you?
Since you are imprisoned in Chaos, Haotian naturally won't harm you.
But is this what they want?
We've only had a few days of good times!
He was then placed in confinement; who could accept that?
Meanwhile, Zhen Yuanzi, who was hiding in the backyard, finally couldn't hold back any longer.
Are you kidding me?
I'm lending you this space so you can figure out how to deal with the current crisis.
What are you trying to do?
This is going to overthrow the Dao Ancestor's plans!
Do you think I'll be able to escape then?
Don't say you weren't involved.
The alliance was formed at the Yuanzi Dojo in my town.
With just this one reason, I, Zhen Yuanzi, cannot escape.
Facing Haotian, I can still open the great formation and barely manage to hold out.
Can one face the Dao Ancestor?
What good is a grand formation!
The old man could sever the earth's veins with a single thought.
Without the support of the earth's veins, the great formation immediately collapsed.
At that time, Zhen Yuanzi will be like a fish on a chopping board.
Thinking of this, Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but curse under his breath, "What a mess!"
This is outrageous! This is unbelievable!
If you want to die, don't drag me down with you.
I'll think about it.
Zhen Yuanzi moved swiftly and went straight to the hall.
After scanning the crowd of cultivators, Zhen Yuanzi spoke up: "Fellow Daoists!"
It is inappropriate for you to discuss opposing the Heavenly Court in my temple.
This humble Taoist priest cannot bear such a heavy karmic burden.
Fellow Daoists, please find another place!
Upon hearing Zhen Yuanzi's words, the cultivators immediately understood.
This is something Zhen Yuanzi didn't want to get involved in, a consequence of opposing the Heavenly Court.
Now that we've reached this point, there are only two key issues to resolve.
More importantly, in the circular mirror.
Haotian has already blocked Xingchen Daoren, and the next victim could appear at any moment.
Leaving Wuzhuang Temple now means that Haotian could come after us at any time.
The cultivators understood what Zhen Yuanzi was worried about.
Immediately, a cultivator spoke up: "Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi, please don't be angry!"
We will not discuss the alliance any further.
Please allow us to reach an agreement on the conditions we need to secure later.
Is that alright?
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi pondered for a moment.
Fellow Daoists!
It's not that I'm unwilling, but I also have my own difficulties.
Please forgive me, fellow Daoists!
Fellow Daoists, please reach an agreement as soon as possible.
Is that alright?
"good!"
Having received the answers from the cultivators, Zhen Yuanzi nodded.
He then disappeared straight from the hall.
After Zhen Yuanzi left, the cultivators fell silent for a while.
One of the cultivators finally spoke up: "Since forming an alliance is not advisable, let's all speak together later."
Let's first agree on the conditions we need to propose.
There can't be too many conditions, otherwise Haotian won't agree.
Therefore, the conditions we propose must address the key points.
This aligns with the interests of most second-generation Daoist practitioners.
In my opinion, it is best to prevent Haotian from coercing us to join the Heavenly Court.
What are your thoughts, fellow Daoists?
As soon as the cultivator finished speaking, another cultivator with a gloomy expression said, "Fellow Daoist's statement is too general."
Moreover, Haotian would probably laugh his head off at that condition.
Which of these captured cultivators was recruited into the Heavenly Court by Haotian?
In my opinion, it would be better to prevent Haotian from tormenting cultivators.
If you're going to kill, kill openly and honestly.
"Don't try to cut flesh with a dull knife if you're not going to kill."
As soon as the cultivator finished speaking, all the cultivators immediately realized what was happening.
It does!
This is the key to solving the problem.
No coercion?
What is coercion?
Did Haotian coerce you?
Obviously not!
They were all cultivators who couldn't bear the pain and were voluntarily submitted to the Heavenly Court.
Therefore, the key issue has never been whether or not coercion is used.
Rather, it is to prevent Haotian from using methods of torture against cultivators.
As for asking Haotian to give up and investigate their karma and cause and effect?
There's no need to even think about it.
Absolutely impossible!
Immediately, another cultivator chimed in, "Fellow Daoist Shenni's words are excellent."
This is the result we seek.
As for the karma and cause and effect we are currently experiencing.
It would be best to get a clear standard from Haotian in this matter.
We can't rely solely on Haotian's words.
After all, we've been cultivating for so long.
Who doesn't have some karma on their hands?
If we don't set standards, we'll surely suffer the wrath of the Heavenly Emperor in the future.
What standards do you all think we should set?
As soon as Ci Xiu finished speaking, Da Congming immediately chimed in, "Why don't we ask Haotian to forgive our past karmic debts?"
This will completely eliminate the possibility of Haotian harming them.
As soon as Ci Xiu finished speaking, the eyes of the group of cultivators immediately froze.
You really dare to dream!
If Haotian could agree to these conditions...
Why did we have to go through this?
Do they really think Haotian is some kind of benevolent believer?
Seeing that all the cultivators were staring at him blankly, this cultivator realized something.
My ideas are a bit outrageous.
He then chuckled awkwardly and said, "I'm doing this for everyone's sake!"
Who among you here is without karma?
If they investigate all of them, none of us will escape.
Only when this matter is completely resolved can we have peace of mind.
However, the other cultivators paid no attention to what this cultivator said.
Thinking of everyone?
Don't you even look at your own karma? How many people here can compare to you?
With all the karma you've accumulated, you'd be in the top ten here!
Is this the time to play those petty tricks?
Even if you want to play tricks, you have to see if the other party approves.
Don't let Haotian find an opening and launch a counterattack, delaying the important matters.
Yu Wanshui's new work is here, updated first across the entire network!
