Chapter 490: Chapter 434, Chaotic Beast
Bai Jin stood up, clasped his hands together, bowed, and said: "Master, your disciple takes his leave."
Primordial advised: "Do not act impulsively without structure, like your master."
"Thank you for your teachings, Master. I understand!"
Bai Jin turned and walked away, his figure vanishing in a flash.
In the empty great hall, Primordial Venerable shook his head slightly, helplessly saying: "Bai Jin is straightforward and values friendship greatly; whether this is good or bad for him, I do not know."
His gaze grew resolute, Jie Sect has already perished, and yet Buddhism dares to scheme against the foolish Tongtian. Do they really think I will not become enraged? If I strike against Buddhism, that would be bullying the younger generation, but Jieyin and Zhunti, that account we must settle.
Primordial Venerable then called out: "Bai He Child!"
Bai He stepped quickly inside from outside, clasped his hands together and respectfully said: "Greetings, my lord!"
Primordial Venerable waved his hand, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi flew to the front of Bai He, saying: "Go to the Pure Land, and cast out the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi!"
Bai He respectfully responded: "Yes!" He took the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi and turned to leave.
Moments later, Bai Jin left Yu Yu Heaven.
Inside Biyou Palace, Tongtian Sect Master squinted his eyes and sneered: "After stealing a disciple from Chan Sect, they come to scheme against the foolish Primordial. Do they really think he’s alone? Water and Fire Child!"
Water and Fire Child ran quickly in from outside, bowed respectfully, and said: "Greetings, my lord!"
With a casual wave of his hand, Tongtian Sect Master made four Immortal Swords appear in front of Water and Fire Child, calmly saying: "Go to the Pure Land, and cast out the Four Immortal Slaying Swords."
Water and Fire Child respectfully responded: "Yes!" He reached for the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, turned, and left.
...
All of this was beyond Bai Jin’s expectations. In his imagination, he would first slander Buddhism, then trap Buddhism, and if Jieyin and Zhunti accused him, he would have the support of his masters and elders, ensuring his safety.
Bai Jin leisurely made his way to Wa Emperor Heaven.
In Wa Emperor Heaven, Nuwa sat inside a pavilion, with a fishing rod next to her, angling.
Bai Jin approached, clasped his hands together, bowed, and smilingly said: "Disciple has come to pay respects to you, wishing you auspiciousness and eternal beauty."
Nuwa smiled slightly, saying: "Rise!"
Bai Jin stood up, walked into the pavilion, leaned on the railing, and looked outside curiously, asking: "Holy Mother, what are you fishing for?"
Nuwa said: "I’ve heard that turtle meat is good for beauty, so I’m fishing for some turtles to eat!"
"Holy Mother, you are already extremely beautiful. Any more beauty, and the entire Chaos will fall for you."
Nuwa couldn’t help but laugh: "Is that truly from the heart?"
Bai Jin immediately became serious and said: "Every word comes from the heart, if you don’t believe me, Holy Mother, your disciple can swear by the Heavenly Dao."
Nuwa glanced at Bai Jin, smiled, and said: "Alright, I believe you."
Bai Jin immediately smiled, then thought for a moment, and curiously asked: "Holy Mother, who told you that turtle meat can beautify?"
"The Xuanwu Venerable Sage said it."
Bai Jin inwardly clicked his tongue, Xuanwu Venerable Sage is really ruthless! Even not sparing his own kind.
At that moment, the fishing rod violently dipped, Nuwa casually lifted it, and whoosh—a shadow emerged from the pond, rising like a mountain.
"Roar~"
"Roar~"
...
An angry roar came from beneath the pond.
Bai Jin’s complexion changed, and she instinctively exclaimed, "Quasi-Saint Xuan Turtle!"
Nuwa exerted herself, lifting a huge Xuan Turtle, as large as a mountain, out of the pond, blocking the sunlight while it roared and struggled in the sky.
The fishing line quivered, and the Xuan Turtle rapidly shrank to a visible speed until it turned into the size of a palm. Following the fall of the fishing rod, it landed in the pavilion with a ’plop.’
The palm-sized Xuan Turtle, standing on its limbs and roaring at Nuwa, had sharp fangs in its mouth and was surrounded by Chaos Qi. Dao patterns were engraved on its turtle shell.
Bai Jin puzzledly asked, "What kind of Xuan Turtle is this? It’s quite strange!"
Nuwa put down her fishing rod and said, "This is a Chaos Alligator Turtle, a fierce beast that roams within the Chaos."
"Chaotic Beast? Are there really such beasts living in the Chaos? Why have I never seen one?" Bai Jin asked, puzzled and confused.
Nuwa explained, "Chaotic beasts differ from the Chaos Demon Gods, they lack spiritual wisdom, cannot communicate, and possess only the instinct to destroy. Devouring worlds and living beings is their favorite thing to do.
As for why you have never seen a Chaotic Beast, it is because the Zixiao Palace has suppressed a part of the Chaos, causing all Chaotic Beasts to avoid it and not dare to come close."
"So you mean to say, Niangniang, you were fishing beyond countless timespaces just now."
Nuwa smiled and nodded lightly.
Bai Jin couldn’t help but raise her thumb and admired, "Niangniang is invincible!"
Nuwa stored away her fishing rod; from the corner of the pavilion, two more Chaos Xuan Turtles crawled out, and the three turtles roared towards Nuwa.
Nuwa ignored them, completely indifferent.
Bai Jin held out her hand, and a plate full of fragrant Golden Zen Meat appeared, she smiled and said, "Niangniang, before eating turtle meat, try the new Golden Zen Meat developed by your disciple." She placed the plate on the table and looked at Nuwa expectantly.
Nuwa picked up chopsticks, tasted a bite, her eyes brightened, and she slightly nodded, "Good! It has a unique flavor."
Bai Jin sat down in front of Nuwa.
Nuwa smiled and said, "Next time, come prepared with more."
Bai Jin nodded and replied, "Yes, Niangniang, it is my disciple’s honor that you like it, and it is my duty to please you."
Nuwa laughed and said, "Well said!"
In Western Heaven Buddhism, a relic sat in the Merit Pond. A Golden Cicada inside the relic suddenly shivered, feeling a malicious intent approaching from nowhere. It couldn’t help but tremble and curl up.
...
Bai Jin said, "Niangniang, you are the Holy Mother of the Human Clan, they scheme against the Human Clan and thus ignore your glory. If Niangniang is insulted, it is your disciple’s failure. I have unresolved issues with Buddhism, I will go back for vengeance on behalf of you, Niangniang."
She stood up, bowed with her fists clenched and said, "Niangniang, your disciple takes his leave!" Then she turned and walked out.
Nuwa’s eyes showed gratification, not having pampered him in vain, and she called out, "Bai Jin!"
Bai Jin paused in his steps, turned around, and said solemnly, "Niangniang, please don’t persuade me, I pledge to defend your honor till death."
Nuwa smiled and said, "As long as you do not foolishly confront Jieyin and Zhunti, you will not die.
Take one of these Chaos Xuan Turtles with you."
Bai Jin immediately joyfully said, "Thank you, Niangniang!" He bent down to pick up a small Xuan Turtle and scurried out joyfully.
Nuwa laughed briefly, her smile then coldened, having not taken action since she became a Saint for a long time, Jieyin and Zhunti, these two junior brothers, dared to ignore my existence, she said aloud, "Qingluan!"
