Chapter 141: The Golden Immortal Enters Tribulation
Below, on the battlefield, the two armies faced each other, their killing intent palpable.
The twelve Golden Immortals, who had just entered the battlefield, all froze, as wisps of black and red aura, barely visible to the naked eye, coiled around them.
In a short while, their once clear eyes were filled with a violent crimson, and the celestial light around them was stained with an ominous hue.
Taibai's divine sense had already enveloped the entire battlefield, allowing him to see every single change within it.
"Following the laws of Heaven and Earth!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Taibai's body suddenly swelled up, manifesting a majestic Dharma form.
At the same time, the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus in his palm was fully activated, its petals bursting open and releasing a pure and immaculate divine light that rushed toward the twelve figures shrouded in calamity.
The pure and immaculate divine light of purification rushed toward the twelve figures shrouded in calamity energy.
At this moment, the Twelve Golden Immortals had almost completely lost their minds, and all they could see was the instinct to kill.
Even when faced with Taibai, it showed no reaction, instead roaring and trying to pounce on him.
With a flick of his giant palm, Taibai threw out the twelve-petaled Pure World White Lotus. The white lotus spun rapidly, hovering above the heads of the twelve Golden Immortals, and the cascading waterfall of light instantly engulfed them completely.
The malevolent aura within the Twelve Golden Immortals gradually dissipated under the cleansing light of the divine light, the crimson in their eyes faded, and their minds began to slowly regain clarity.
The lingering sunlight also greatly reduced the fighting strength of the Jiuli tribe.
"Brothers! God bless our Xuanyuan tribe, follow me in our counterattack!"
Seeing this, Xuanyuan would not miss this golden opportunity and immediately raised his arms and shouted.
Upon hearing this, the soldiers of the Xuanyuan tribe were greatly encouraged. Their previously retreating lines immediately stabilized, and they turned around to launch a fearless charge against Chiyou's army.
Without the baleful aura, Chi You's followers, despite their superior equipment, were no different from ordinary people.
Under the reckless charge of the Xuanyuan army, the battle line was actually pushed back.
Taibai, using the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus, lifted the still-weak twelve Golden Immortals and brought them to Xuanyuan's side, saying in a deep voice:
"Do not pursue further; your army is no match for Chi You."
After saying this, he took the lead and flew back to the safe area where the Xuanyuan camp was located.
Upon landing, Taibai unfolded its white lotus once more, its clear light circulating and completely purifying the remaining malevolent energy, creating a stable and pure land.
He then placed the remaining eleven Golden Immortals flat on the ground, leaving only Guang Chengzi beside them, and attempted to channel his magical power into their bodies to dissolve the stubborn calamity and evil energy.
However, no matter how he tried, he could not dispel the evil energy within the other eleven Golden Immortals, except for Guang Chengzi.
"Strange...why was the tribulation energy within Junior Brother Guang Chengzi easily dispelled, while the others were so difficult to handle?"
As Taibai was pondering to himself, Guangchengzi slowly awoke.
He spotted Taibai at a glance, and his eyes immediately lit up with hope. He hurried forward:
"Senior Brother! We beg you, Senior Brother, to lend Xuanyuan a hand and defeat Chi You!"
Taibai glanced at him, then looked at his fellow disciples who were still unconscious on the ground, and sighed helplessly:
"This place is filled with malevolent energy; anyone with an unstable mind will be corrupted. If you lose control and go on a killing spree, you will commit a calamity of murder. At that time, the merits you gain will probably not outweigh the karma you create."
Upon hearing this, Guang Chengzi clenched his fists and said urgently:
"Senior Brother, if we don't come up with a countermeasure, Xuanyuan will surely be defeated! Then I will suffer the backlash."
"The affairs of the human race must ultimately be decided by the human race itself. External forces should not interfere excessively."
Taibai shook his head, then pointed with his fingers and sent a beam of spiritual light into Guangchengzi's brow.
"This contains several human military formations; you should give them to Xuanyuan to study. As for the baleful aura, I will devise a way to deal with it myself."
Immediately, many exquisite array diagrams, such as the Bagua Formation and the One-Character Long Snake Formation, appeared in Guang Chengzi's sea of consciousness, and he felt somewhat at ease.
Taibai said no more, and with his great magical power, he carried the eleven Golden Immortals and ascended into the sky.
He fully unfurled the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus, its petals spreading out and purifying divine light radiating downwards.
At the same time, he began chanting scriptures, his voice and light mingling, attempting to cleanse the surging malevolent energy across the entire Zhuolu Plain.
However, the malevolent energy here is deeply accumulated and cannot be eliminated in a short time.
As the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs, but misfortunes never come singly.
Just as Taibai was exerting all his strength, the bodies of several Golden Immortals beside him, including Huanglong Zhenren, suddenly trembled and sprang up.
They seemed to transform into ferocious beasts, their crimson eyes fixed on the nearest Taibai, and they pounced on him without any sense of reason.
"Alas... The calamity is so severe, the malevolent energy is so corrosive, it has come to this."
The situation is extremely precarious: the attacks of several Golden Immortals, who have become possessed by demons, must be suppressed immediately, or they will suffer a backlash.
The murderous aura on the battlefield below still needs to be continuously purified, otherwise the Xuanyuan army will not be able to hold out for long.
The root of this vast battlefield's malevolent aura requires time to slowly eradicate.
With a change of his hand seals, the light of the Pure White Lotus above his head dimmed slightly, and a figure identical to his original form stepped out from his side, immediately taking over the important task of purifying the evil energy.
After knocking Huanglong and the others unconscious again, Taibai sped off towards Kunlun Mountain.
Now, the only ones who can resolve the calamity and evil energy within Guang Chengzi and the others are probably saints or quasi-saints.
On the Chiyou tribe's side, as the evil energy continued to dissipate, Chiyou also gradually felt uneasy.
Within a few days, he mobilized his troops and launched a proactive attack, heading straight for Xuanyuan's camp.
Fortunately, the formation previously transmitted by Venus had already been mastered by the Xuanyuan tribe. Although they could not defeat Chiyou's army in one fell swoop, they were enough to hold the line and prevent them from advancing an inch.
The clone of Taibai who stayed behind on the battlefield took extra care of Guangchengzi, protecting his spiritual platform with pure energy to prevent it from being eroded by the calamity energy.
At this moment, Taibai's true form had quietly returned to Kunlun Mountain.
However, at this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun was not in Kunlun Mountain; only Baihe Tongzi and Ran Deng Daoren were quietly guarding the place.
Although Randeng was once a guest of Zixiao Palace and had profound Taoist cultivation, when it came to resolving such a severe calamity, his cultivation was comparable to that of Taibai, and he was also helpless against the strange phenomena of the Eleven Golden Immortals.
The time was of the essence; the battle on the plains was still raging, and Taibai could not linger.
He had no choice but to summon several spiritual treasures, activate the Five Elements Laws he cultivated, and transform them into streams of light and seals, which he then placed one by one on the spiritual platforms of the eleven Golden Immortals.
Although this method cannot eradicate the hidden dangers, it is enough to temporarily suppress the turbulent calamity energy within his body, delaying it until the return of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
"White Crane," Taibai turned and instructed the boy standing beside him, "you stay here and keep a close watch, don't let outsiders disturb us."
The White Crane Boy bowed and replied, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, this disciple will stay by your side at all times."
With everything arranged, Taibai was about to leave when his gaze swept over Randeng, who was quietly observing from the side.
In the blink of an eye, a thought suddenly arose in my mind.
He immediately straightened his appearance and bowed respectfully to the lamp.
"Vice Master, the Chan Sect is currently in dire need of talent. The Eleven Golden Immortals are crucial to the rise and fall of the sect, and the Battle of the Deer will further affect the continuation of our sect's lineage among the human race."
Taibai earnestly requests the Vice Master's assistance to overcome this calamity, which is also to preserve the foundation of our Chan Sect in the human world.
However, upon hearing this, Randeng was extremely unwilling, as the image of the eleven Golden Immortals being tainted by the calamity energy was still vivid in his mind.
