Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree

Chapter 903 330: Burial Sea, Holy Temple Patriarch_3

He quickly made telepathic contact with Bai Bushu, saying only one thing:"Get your ass back here!"

Having been a grandson, it's time to be a grandfather.

...

...

In the Nine States, within the Taiyin Empire, at the Taiyin Divine Palace.

As one of the three pinnacle forces in the Nine States, the Taiyin Divine Palace not only has a True Saint at its command but is also a continuation of the Nether Ruins Lineage from years past.

With good news from the Great Universe frontier repeatedly returning, especially the news of the main branch emerging from the Nether Ruins, the Taiyin Divine Palace urgently convened several council meetings.

The topics and direction of the council evolved again and again, reflecting the shifting attitudes within the Taiyin Divine Palace.

At first—

"Ha! What's so special about He Donghuang's disciple? He's still working for us, isn't he?"

"He's just a low-level Divine Prohibition, useful for now, but when we enter the Great Universe, we'll just grant the Yanhuang Federation some favors and be done with it."

"Hmm, although someone else's disciples are indeed useful, maybe we can send Ji Jingqiu into the Burial Sea to investigate the main branch's situation for us."

"No— I think we should let him fight for the eighth Ascension Platform. That's also territory of the Nether Ruins Lineage!"

"Do you really think that kid is easy to deal with?"

"Heh, we can't handle him at the moment, but we can surely handle the Nine Palaces!"

"We don't have time to go to war with the Nine Palaces—"

"No worries, he's just a minor figure, scaring him will suffice."

And then the tide turned—

"Ahem, it's no wonder the main branch values him. Elder Ji truly has extraordinary strength, crushing those of the same level! His future heights will surely surpass us old timers."

"Though he's a successor, he's a generational one after ten thousand years, how can they be generalized?"

"Indeed, Elder Ji being granted the highest rank of foreign elder from the main branch clearly explains things. How can your vision be more accurate than the main branch's?"

"Tsk tsk, it's heard that Elder Ji captured all territories within a tea's time at the Heaven and Earth Mystic Sect, truly dominating the present era!"

"The situation at the Holy Temple was similar, for Elder Ji, just a matter of convenience."

Sitting in the main seat, Ruishui coldly observed the face-changing skills of this group, but felt helpless inside.

The rank of the highest-level foreign elder of the main branch outweighs everyone present except her, equating to a Supreme Elder.

Although an outsider elder, there's a distinction between close and distant relatives, and no real power, the key lies in their inability to determine Ji Jingqiu's exact relationship with the main branch, so naturally, they wouldn't rashly offend him.

"Ahem, it's heard Elder Ji has a message for Uncle Master Yu? I wonder where Uncle Master Yu is currently?"

Someone looked towards the head seat at Ruishui, who is also the current Palace Master of the Taiyin Divine Palace.

Ruishui said indifferently, "Master is currently in closed training, while the clone is traveling the Great Universe."

Someone frowned and said, "The clone is traveling the Great Universe? Isn't Uncle Master Yu afraid of being pressured by the Great Universe's rules?"

In the current Great Universe environment, even if the Heavenly Venerate Ancestor self-severs his clone, dropping below the Heavenly Person level, he must be careful about being discovered by the Great Universe's Heavenly Will, as a slight mistake could mean permanent expulsion.

"Master has his ways." Ruishui was reluctant to delve further into this topic.

A nearby female Taoist slowly said, "Elder Ji entrusted us with a message for Senior Sister Yu for the first time, it must be delivered promptly to avoid Taiyin Lineage losing manners."

Ruishui replied coldly, "I have it in hand. Besides, don't forget, our lineage doesn't have a mortal feud with South Emperor He Donghuang."

Everyone fell silent, many frowned inwardly, thinking how they overlooked this point, and immediately extinguished the idea of using Ji Jingqiu as a way to attack the Palace Master's lineage.

Although successfully making these old fools clear their minds, Ruishui felt no joy, instead a sense of helplessness.

If the master were here, he certainly wouldn't have allowed her to use such a banner today...

"According to Elder Ji, the main branch has returned and is active within the Great Universe, should we attempt contact?"

"Not advisable, Elder Ji mentioned, the main branch has yet to reach out to us, there must be deeper meaning behind this. We should solidify control over the seventh Ascension Platform first; the Holy Temple and Heaven and Earth Mystic Sect are no more, and there's the Heavenly Tree Dynasty nearby."

"No worries, with Elder Ji overseeing, there's no room for dissident thoughts from the Heavenly Tree Dynasty."

"Hmm… Elder Ji is not currently on Yellow Court Star, but seeking cosmic wonders to hone his Martial Arts."

"Breaking through again?" someone asked in astonishment, first time murmuring without any other factors, "How much time has passed, his breakthrough speed is quite alarming."

After the meeting concluded.

Ruishui left alone, she did not go to the depths of the Tao Palace and disturb the master's true self in retreat.

Instead, she attempted to communicate with the master still traveling through the Great Universe in the form of a clone, cautiously explaining the current situation.

Then came a long silence.

Just as Ruishui was about to smile bitterly and comfort the master with a few words, she heard the gnashing voice from the master's clone:

"Is the main branch blind?"

"Who gave him the identity token?!"

"Where is Ji Jingqiu currently, and when is he returning to the Nine States?!"

...

Ji Jingqiu is currently still on Yellow Court Star.

After dealing with the Holy Temple and Heaven and Earth Mystic Sect.

He set business targets for all the Heavenly Person disciples of the Taiyin Divine Palace, and released them to help him search for resources.
