Chapter 884 Issues of Principle
The destructive power caused by the melee between several Golden Immortals was extremely exaggerated.

The Yao Chi Fairy Palace was built with all kinds of precious natural treasures, and countless formations and prohibitions were engraved on it, but it was still destroyed by their battle.

Now only a small platform is left of the Yao Chi Fairy Palace.

Other places were filled with broken walls, rubble and tiles floating in the void.

The small platform was protected by the shield erected by Taishang Laojun, otherwise it would have been destroyed by the terrifying shock wave.

The tables and chairs of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother are still preserved above the platform, and beside them stand the fairy Chang'e and Taibai Jinxing respectively.

The clone Long Teng had already separated from the platform where the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother were, and was pushed several hundred meters away by the powerful impact.

Although the Yao Chi Fairy Palace was destroyed and everyone was trapped in the void, everyone present had cultivation and treated the void as a flat ground.

The battle will naturally not stop just because the Yao Chi Fairy Palace is destroyed.

But it can be stopped due to the intervention of a more powerful third party force.

Buddhism intervened!
Although there were also heroes like the Fighting Buddha Sun Wukong, the Altar Purifier Zhu Bajie, and the Good Fortune Boy Red Boy who participated in the battle before.

However, in some aspects, these three do not completely belong to Buddhism. Their identities are between Buddhism and Taoism.

Often when they went to war with Yang Jian, everyone would think it was a civil war within Taoism itself.

But at this time, the core figure of Buddhism appeared.

Guanyin Bodhisattva is here!

With the appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, everyone stopped fighting.

The power of Buddhism is not achieved by kindness and mercy. Guanyin Bodhisattva came personally to ask everyone to stop fighting. The consequences of not giving face will be serious.

"How about I make a bet with you?" said Guanyin Bodhisattva

The Jade Emperor asked, "Oh? What bet?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "If your majesty and your majesty win, I will help the Heavenly Court to withdraw the troops, but if unfortunately they win, please ask the Heavenly Court to pardon the Three Holy Mothers."

When the Jade Emperor heard about this bet, he immediately became interested and said to the Queen Mother: "Winning or losing is good for both of us!"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she lowered her voice in a bad mood and said, "What's the good of losing!"

The Queen Mother saw this matter very clearly. Although losing seemed to have no impact, the impact was actually extremely bad. As long as Chenxiang successfully rescued the Three Holy Mothers through resistance, the majesty of the Heavenly Court, the authority of the Heavenly Laws, and their rule would all be greatly impacted.

The Jade Emperor was unwilling to listen to the Queen Mother's opinion and made the decision directly: "Bodhisattva, let's bet! We can bet on anything."

When Queen Mother heard this, she felt very nervous and was really unsure about this bet.

Guanyin Bodhisattva said slowly: "Let's bet on Chenxiang saving his mother!"

When these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked, surprised and puzzled.

Guanyin Bodhisattva continued, "I will sit and watch with you all as Chenxiang saves his mother. If Chenxiang can rescue the Three Holy Mothers from Huashuo, I will win."

However, when Queen Mother heard that the bet was about this, her uneasy look disappeared. However, she was still a little worried, so she gave Yang Jian a look.

"Besides you and me, does anyone else know the spell?"

"No more!" Yang Jian answered affirmatively.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she said confidently, "With your spell and the bowl, even if the Buddha from the West comes, it won't work."

in fact,

The Queen Mother had already changed Yang Jian's spell, and she also knew that Mount Hua contained the five-colored stones left by Nuwa.

She was now very confident about the bet and said with a smile, "Let's make the bet."

Next, we continued with the original plan and headed to Huashan to rescue the Three Holy Mothers.

Chenxiang, Dingxiang and Ao Chun left the heaven and went to look for the Axe of Creation mentioned by Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Everyone else started watching the video of Chenxiang and his group in the Heavenly Palace.

Long Teng suddenly flew to the platform where Queen Mother Wang and the others were, and said, "Queen Mother! The content of our deal is to help you resist Chen Xiang once. Now that Chen Xiang has left the Heavenly Palace, our deal is complete. In addition, I also helped fight Zhu Bajie, Bull Demon King, and Nezha, which is considered to be exceeding the task.

Please fulfill the transaction and give me the reward!"

All the immortals and gods present were stunned when these words were spoken. At first they thought that Long Teng was a diehard member of the Heavenly Court, but it turned out that he was a hired thug.

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother naturally did not want Long Teng to leave at this time. With this almost invincible Taiyi Golden Immortal protecting him, the sense of security was naturally needless to say.

Moreover, when the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother heard that Long Teng was planning to make a deal, they saw the way his eyes rolled around, and they knew at a glance that the guy was up to no good.

Then the Queen Mother said, "Long Teng, if you are willing to continue to stay in the Heavenly Palace to help resist the foreign enemies, I can later make you the Dragon God of the Four Seas, in charge of the four sea dragon tribes. Your status will be equal to that of the Four Imperial Gods."

The gods and immortals present were also stunned when they heard this. Sihai saw that there were not many strong people in the open, but there were many powerful old guys in secret. However, every time those old guys took action, they were burning up their remaining lifespan.

Moreover, the dragon tribes of the four seas are very wealthy.

Long Teng obtained the ownership of the four seas dragon clan. For him who was a dragon himself, the harm was almost zero, and the rest were all benefits.

The most important thing is to be on par with the Four Imperial Gods.

The highest person in heaven and earth is the Jade Emperor. Besides him, there are four other celestial emperors, known as the Four Imperial Emperors, also known as the Four Assistants.

They are: the Qinghua Emperor of Miaoyan Palace in the East, Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun, the Changsheng Emperor of the South, Yuqing Zhenwang, the Taiji Gou Chen Tianhuang Shangdi of the West, and the Zhongtian Ziwei Emperor of the North.

This status is extremely high.

Long Teng thought for a moment and shook his head to refuse, saying: "The Four Seas Dragon King gave me the opportunity to enter the Dragon Tomb to gain enlightenment, how could I do something like taking away the ancestral property of the Four Seas Dragon Clan Ao Family.

At this time, the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara of the South China Sea came out to mediate, and it would be difficult for the fight to break out again. And wasn’t the Goddess of Gambling already sure of victory?
Your Majesty, please give me the reward so that I can continue my retreat."

Sun Wukong was far away at this time, and deliberately said in a sarcastic tone: "My queen, are you going to default on your debt now?"

He had no good intention in saying this.

If the Queen Mother gives Long Teng a reward, he will leave. If she doesn't give him a reward, Long Teng will directly counterattack the Heavenly Palace.

The Queen Mother was wise enough to see through Sun Wukong's sinister intentions. She gritted her teeth and looked at Sun Wukong with hatred, then waved her hand and something wrapped in a golden light fell into Long Teng's hands.

When Long Teng took a look, he found that there was indeed a sapling in his hand. Moreover, seeing the strange light flowing on the sapling and the innate mysterious Taoist patterns on the bark, even though he had never seen a peach tree, Long Teng judged that this sapling was definitely a spiritual root of heaven and earth.

The reason why Long Teng chose to leave at this time was because the Queen Mother agreed to the bet.

When she agreed to the bet, Queen Mother was already doomed to lose.

That was before the bet.
Before becoming a god,

In the distant past, the saints had already arranged this overall situation.

Seeing through the wall of time, in the distant future, the Three Holy Mothers Chenxiang and his men set up a banner against the Jade Emperor. Originally, with the supreme status of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, plus Long Teng's full efforts to hold Chenxiang and others back, it would not take long for Chenxiang and his men to fail and retreat.

In name, the Jade Emperor can even command and instruct saints.

The other four great emperors can deliberately delay rescue for a period of time, but there is a limit to the time they can delay.

and,

This time, the plan set up by the saint was just to divide the power of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, not to really kill them and take away their positions.

Killing the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother would definitely be a violation of the Heavenly Dao Hongjun's taboo.

So as long as they hold on, Chenxiang and his friends will be the ones who fail in the end.

If the Queen Mother and the others agreed to the bet, they would fall into their rhythm and trap, and failure was inevitable.

The Queen Mother believes that only she and Yang Jian know the spell that seals Huashan, but Yang Jian is Wu Jiedao.

Although the Queen Mother herself changed the sealing spell, and there was the magic weapon Qiankun Bowl covering Huashan, even the Buddha could not break the magic weapon.

But I don’t know what those saints were thinking. They combined the fragments of the Axe of Creation, which had already been separated into several innate treasures, into one Axe of Creation.

With that thing, it would not be difficult for Chenxiang to split the Qiankun Bowl.

Five-colored sky-repairing stone!
The new Heavenly Law needs the Five-Colored Sky-Mending Stone to support it. If one wants to be more bound by the Heavenly Law, the Five-Colored Sky-Mending Stone cannot be destroyed. Saving the Three Holy Mothers and not destroying the Five-Colored Sky-Mending Stone conflict with each other.

As a result, the Queen Mother didn't know that the Five-Colored Heaven-Burners were not on his side at all, but were just waiting for Chenxiang to split open.

As long as Chenxiang can infect the minds of most of the powerful beings in the Three Realms and make them tend to favor Chenxiang.

It can further affect the way of heaven, and if it affects the way of heaven, Hongjun's intention to stand up for the Jade Emperor will be insufficient.

Then, with the emergence of new Heavenly Laws, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother will lose the right to change and formulate Heavenly Laws.

From now on, the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother will be nothing more than tools.

To put it more vividly, they will be like human stamps in the future, unable to make any decisions on their own and can only act according to the framework of the Heavenly Laws.

Wang Ming has never been a good person nor a bad person.

Wang Ming is willing to help others and save the world when it is within his ability and will not cost him a great deal.

But the price to pay is enough to hurt his foundation, so Wang Ming will not do it.

Even if all the people in the world died, Wang Ming would not choose to take action.

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother refused to agree to the bet, so Wang Ming stepped in to help, but he had to face only Taiyi Golden Immortals like Yang Jian.

If the clone Long Teng can’t be stopped, the worst that can happen is that he can send another one.

but,

Problems at the saint level are something that the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother have to deal with themselves.

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother agreed to the bet, but then they lost and refused to admit their loss, so Wang Ming had no choice.

Not to mention saints, even Guanyin Bodhisattva himself is not his match.

So Wang Ming planned to evacuate his clone.

After receiving the benefits, Long Teng turned around and left without any reluctance.

Perhaps it was because that turn was too decisive and too impatient.

This made the Queen Mother feel a little uneasy and panicked. The Queen Mother was one of the few people in the Three Realms with a very high IQ. The Queen Mother stood up, grabbed Long Teng and asked in a low voice: "Did you see anything? Or do you know something?"

Long Teng turned around and looked at Queen Mother in surprise, then said, "I didn't see anything."

The Queen Mother transmitted the message: "Tell me what you know, and I will give you a thousand-year-old peach tree."

When Long Teng heard this, his eyes lit up inexplicably, but then dimmed again and said, "I know nothing."

Having said that, he wanted to leave again.

The Queen Mother then brought out Long Teng and raised the stakes, saying, "Three thousand ripe peach trees."

Long Teng's heart twitched when he heard this, and he subconsciously glanced in the direction of Taishang Laojun, and then said: "I really don't know anything."

The Queen Mother seemed to be extremely certain of the feeling deep in her heart, and she raised the stakes again, saying, "The peach tree matures once every nine thousand years."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ming's consciousness was shaken. The temptation was really too great.

If there is any principle that cannot be changed, it must be that the temptation is not big enough.

Now the price offered by Queen Mother is enough to make Wang Ming change his principles.

The peach tree, which matures once every nine thousand years, is an extremely precious resource.

According to the cultivation system and rules of this world, as long as one becomes an immortal, both body and spirit can live as long as the heavens.

However, immortality is also accompanied by three disasters and eight difficulties, and it is extremely difficult to overcome them.

The peaches grown on the peach tree are magical treasures that can help offset calamities.

How could Wang Ming not be tempted?
then,

Wang Ming finally made up his mind and said seriously, "Give me the things first."

When Queen Mother Wang saw Long Teng's expression at this moment, she immediately knew that there was really a problem.

As for whether Long Teng would deceive him?
Having deceived her, where could Long Teng go?
In the eyes of Queen Mother Queen Mother, all three realms belong to her. She is not afraid of being deceived at all. She is only afraid that the uneasy feeling in her heart will become a reality.

The Queen Mother waved her hand and summoned a peach tree from the Peach Garden and threw it to Long Teng.

Long Teng took the things and then transmitted the message: "Three Holy Mothers, Precious Lotus Lantern, Agarwood, and Five-Colored Stone."

When the Queen Mother heard these words, she was very confused. She paid such a huge price and only got these few words in return. It was really a big loss.

But the Queen Mother did not think that Long Teng was really deceiving her.

Queen Mother Wang thought to herself, "Third Holy Mother Yang Chan? The Precious Lotus Lantern is a magic weapon, Chenxiang is Yang Chan's son, and the Five-Colored Stone is the Heaven-Repairing Stone left by Nuwa. What's the connection between them?"

suddenly,

The Queen Mother recalled an ancient message and said in surprise, "The Lotus Lantern was left by the Nuwa. The Lotus Lantern chose Yang Chan as its master. Chenxiang is Yang Chan's son. The Five-Colored Stone and the Lotus Lantern both belong to the Nuwa."

In an instant, the Queen Mother felt cold all over.

She knew she had been tricked.
