Chapter 266: Chapter 265 Nezha: Oh! So that’s how Nanji Immortal is called! The one receiving him was still the familiar Bai He, the Child. "Disciple Li Nezha comes to request an audience with Senior Uncle Yuanshi Tianzun." Bai He had a favorable impression of Nezha. Nominally, Bai He was a disciple of Nanji Immortal, but in fact, had always served alongside Yuanshi Tianzun. "Senior Brother, you’ve come at a less-than-opportune time. Ever since the Sun Star’s unrest, Saint Master Ancestor has been in seclusion, and no one is permitted to disturb him." Nezha, upon hearing this, understood immediately. Yuanshi Tianzun simply didn’t want to involve himself in such matters. "Then who in your esteemed sect currently oversees the internal affairs?" "At present, it is Senior Uncle Guang Chengzi who presides." Nezha nodded and said, "I request Junior Brother to guide me to Senior Brother Guang Chengzi. I have an urgent matter to report!" Since last time, when Nezha saved the Twelve Golden Immortals, and then cultivated within Yuxu Palace for a period, Nezha’s standing here had risen considerably. Seeing his urgency, Bai He directly led Nezha and Gold Star Taibai to a secluded hall — precisely where Guang Chengzi resided within Yuxu Palace. Nezha didn’t even wait for Bai He to knock on the door. He started without hesitation, launching into his accusation, slapping an enormous label onto Nanji Immortal. "Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, something terrible has happened! Senior Brother Nanji has betrayed the Mystic Sect, utilizing an unknown magic to revive Luo Hou, attacking the Heavenly Court with plans to seize the position of Heavenly Emperor and control the Three Realms!" Nezha’s statement stunned both Bai He and Guang Chengzi inside the hall. Bai He began to doubt his reality. Could his master, who spent his days solely focused on health preservation, truly harbor such ambition? Even Guang Chengzi could no longer maintain his composed Immortal demeanor and rushed out anxiously. But someone was even faster. From a nearby grand hall, the doors flung open. An elder with a pronounced brow, leaning on a cane, directly cursed, "Utter nonsense!" It was none other than Nanji Immortal himself, who had been hiding away. Nezha instantly shed his prior urgency, now standing leisurely and smiling at Nanji Immortal. "Senior Brother Nanji, it has been a while." Nanji Immortal, realizing he had lost his composure, immediately regained his calm demeanor. "Junior Brother, after all, your years of cultivation are shallow, and such mischief is forgivable." "I may not have cultivated as long as Senior Brother, but at least I don’t dabble in both Dao and Demon paths with such ease." The sidelined Gold Star Taibai, doing his best to minimize his presence, thought to himself: Nezha truly has guts. As a mere Golden Immortal, he dares confront a Quasi-Saint. If he were a Quasi-Saint himself, would he challenge a Saint next? Nanji Immortal’s composure cracked upon hearing this. Collaborating with Demon Dao was the gravest crime for a Mystic Sect disciple. "Junior Brother engages in jest. I have always resided within Yuxu Palace, cultivating alongside Master. When have I colluded with the Demon Dao? Junior Brother, slander such as this may leave me with no choice but to discipline you on behalf of Lady Nuwa!" Nezha narrowed his eyes at "Old Deng" Nanji Immortal. The audacity—relying on Yuanshi Tianzun’s protection, refusing to admit guilt. And who are you, exactly, to presume to discipline me? "If Senior Brother vows he has no connection to Luo Hou’s resurrection, I will withdraw." Nanji Immortal said nothing. Even Guang Chengzi, watching the scene, was deeply shocked. Wait—so this actually involves you? "Does Senior Brother think that mere denial would leave me powerless?" Nanji Immortal remained silent, retreating back into his grand hall and slamming the doors shut. Guang Chengzi tried to salvage the situation with some diplomatic words, but Nezha immediately stopped him. "Senior Brother, be cautious not to harm your own standing." With that said, Nezha began fully activating the Divine Soul within him, focusing on the Central Ziwei Emperor’s Divine Position. Then he tilted his head back and declared, "Under Heaven’s gaze!" Guang Chengzi was struck silent. Feeling the gathering power of Heaven on Kunlun Mountain, Nezha continued reciting a prepared prayer. "Mystic Sect disciple Nanji Immortal privately forged forbidden materials to strengthen Demon Dao, causing chaos in the Heavenly Court..." Inside the hall, sensing Heaven’s accumulating might, Nanji Immortal became frantic and rushed out in an attempt to interrupt. However, a mysterious force bound him, rendering his mana completely stagnant. Ignoring him, Nezha continued detailing the impacts of the Demon Dao’s attack on the Heavenly Court before closing with: "Heaven is impartial. Today, disciple Li Nezha petitions Heaven to deliver judgment and secure the eternal prosperity of the Mystic Sect!" As Nezha finished his prayer, the black clouds dense over Kunlun began to churn, seemingly deliberating the merits of the case. Soon, a conclusion was reached. From the cloud centers, a bolt of Zixiao Divine Thunder descended decisively, bypassing the formations protecting Kunlun Mountain, Yuxu Palace, and Nanji Immortal’s grand hall, striking directly upon Nanji Immortal’s forehead. Nanji Immortal cried out miserably. The Zixiao Divine Thunder did no harm to his Taoist Body—it targeted not his physical form but his Dao Fruit. The Path of Fortune and Longevity fractured under the lightning, splitting into three: Fortune, Status, and Longevity. Nanji Immortal’s Dao Fruit shattered, his cultivated Great Dao now reduced to merely the Path of Longevity. The immediate effect was a massive downgrade in cultivation! Nezha: Ah, so that’s why they call him Nanji Immortal! The Second Corpse disintegrated completely, his status plummeting from Quasi-Saint to Daluo Golden Immortal, then Taiyi Golden Immortal, and finally stabilizing at Golden Immortal. Old Deng’s face turned dark as he collapsed unconscious. Guang Chengzi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately sighed and said nothing. Bai He, still nominally Nanji Immortal’s disciple, rushed forward to aid him, carrying him back into the hall without turning back. Nezha sighed. Old Deng truly had tenacious luck—despite causing such a massive mess, he managed to preserve his life and retain Golden Immortal cultivation. Clearly, Yuanshi Tianzun, though unseen, had intervened. Nanji Immortal’s creation of the Heaven and Earth Life Span technique had effects too overwhelmingly defiant of cosmic laws. In the Primordial realms, it was essentially a banned substance. Originally, this would have been ignored so long as it was kept private. Heaven turned a blind eye to it within Yuanshi Tianzun’s purview. But this time, things escalated dramatically. Luo Hou, back in the day, once provoked the Daoist Ancestor at the South Heavenly Gate. Never mind that the Daoist Ancestor didn’t respond—it was simply beneath him, as Luo Hou was no longer on his level. Now, Nanji Immortal had made a grave mistake and refused to admit it. Nezha petitioned Heaven for judgment, offering sound reasoning, and thus Heaven responded with Zixiao Divine Thunder. In the end, Nanji Immortal’s arrogance was his downfall. Who in the Primordial realms would dare treat Hong Jun with anything less than utmost reverence? Nezha’s mission was complete. The Immortals of the Chan Sect, remaining silent throughout, clearly had nothing to add. Chan Sect and its ethos center on clarity—open revelation. The measures Yuanshi Tianzun once contemplated taking against his own brother had the same foundation in this principle. Now that Nanji Immortal suffered Heaven’s punishment, the fault lay solely with him and had no connection to Nezha. After all, if Nezha wielded the power to decide who gets struck by divine lightning, wouldn’t people think he’s the Daoist Ancestor’s own grandson? Besides, who would dare voice opposition? If you have objections, take them up with the Daoist Ancestor! Nezha bowed toward the direction of Yuanshi Tianzun’s seclusion and departed alongside Gold Star Taibai. On the way back, Gold Star Taibai, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. "Emperor, you are truly wise and courageous! With the Emperor overseeing affairs, Heaven’s blessings upon the Heavenly Court are immeasurable!" "Emperor, your sharp words made Nanji Immortal speechless! Such a Linglong heart..." "Emperor, you..."
