Hudi flew swiftly through the air, yelling wildly.

Shudi was initially worried, but then saw that the old fellow was just pretending to be pregnant and shouting. Shudi's lips twitched, and he said angrily, "Huer Wuxing, you don't even have a physical form, you're just gathered primordial Qi. What pregnancy are you talking about?"

"I'll hit you!"

He kicked out with his back foot.

The two old men exchanged blows in the air, punching and kicking.

Finally, they both kicked out, their feet landing on each other. They paused, looked at each other, and Shudi said, "That matter of yours was probably caused by that kid Wei Yuan. After we split up, we'll look for him in two directions."

"No problem."

Shudi looked at his old friend, who was swollen all over, and his lips twitched. "Are you okay?"

"No problem!"

Hudi looked at his own state and added:

"Anyway, that kid shouldn't be able to cause any bigger problems."

"That's good..."

"I'll count to three, and we'll use our strength together."

Shudi was calm, and then said, "One, two, three."

"??!!"

"Damn, were those three words shouted together?"

"You old bastard, you tricked me!"

Hudi was completely unprepared. The two old men exerted their strength together. Accompanied by violent spiritual energy fluctuations, the two combined barely managed to offset the weakening power of Buzhou Mountain, and then flew out to the left and right.

They changed direction.

Both sides were heading towards the Great Wilderness. In any case, as long as they encountered mountains and land veins, they could forcibly brake. Shudi was just worried about whether Hudi's body would explode... Refining illusion to return to reality, what exactly did he create?

..................

"Since you've already guaranteed it, then this old Daoist should at least believe you... and going to the South Sea shouldn't be a problem..." Zhang Ruosu held a teacup with strong liquor mixed with Heavenly King Life-Preserving Pills and Taiyi Rescuing Heart Golden Pills, very health-preserving indeed.

He took a sip of the liquor that tasted like a mixture of powerful medicines.

The old Daoist's heart was as still as water. He suddenly felt that he might be able to give up drinking.

"Then, about the two Emperors, Shudi and Hudi..."

The old Daoist took a deep breath and said, "You can't find these two to bear the Qi Luck center points of the other two seas in the Four Seas. What are you going to do? Now you've killed those two original gods, and the Heavenly Dao of the seas can't connect with the human world."

Wei Yuan said, "I can only find replacements, like Zhenwu."

"Speaking of which, the Human World's talisman Heavenly Court array seems to be incomplete?"

The old Daoist rolled his eyes: "It's already been completed, okay?!"

"Actually, the core is just the idea of the Four Imperials ruling the Heavens, using four nodes to mobilize the talismans of the human world is enough. It's just that the Ancestral Master didn't expect so many changes in later generations, with both the East Sea Heavenly Dao and the West Sea Heavenly Dao. The ability to mobilize has been improved, but the talisman Heavenly Court system itself is a bit unable to keep up."

Zhang Ruosu sighed.

Looking at his wine, he was heartbroken.

The Ancestral Master also didn't expect that there would be a troublemaker like you.

'Four Imperials Ruling the Heavens Array...'

Wei Yuan was thoughtful.

The old man said, "Besides, when this foundation was laid, there weren't that many Daoist scriptures. It was still a very preliminary prototype. Many later Heavenly God positions only had a relatively systematic system after *Journey to the West* and *Investiture of the Gods*."

Wei Yuan touched his chin and said, "Well, how about we follow *Investiture of the Gods*?"

"Shall we modify this Four Imperials Ruling the Heavens?"

The old Daoist shook his head repeatedly, "You might as well follow *Journey to the West*!"

He looked disgusted: "*Investiture of the Gods* and *Journey to the West*, according to today's standards, are both fan fiction of our Daoist Canon. However, the author of *Investiture of the Gods* had too limited imagination, too limited."

"Yang Jian in *Investiture of the Gods* would have a headache because of three thousand mortal soldiers and horses, and even had to feign defeat."

"And the mounts, those who won were because their mounts were faster..."

"Sun Wukong in *Journey to the West* didn't use the Dharma, Appearance of Heaven and Earth, and killed 48,000 demons with one staff without even blinking. In *Investiture of the Gods*, the speed of the sect leader's Vertical Golden Light was written as several thousand *li* a day, while even Zhu Bajie's escape light in *Journey to the West* was more than 200,000 *li* a day."

"Sha Wujing's Liusha River is 800 *li* wide and tens of thousands of *li* long."

"My Daoist Three Pure Ones were actually restricted by a Hongjun that I don't know who made up."

"And the method to restrict them was actually tricking them into going to the Daoist temple and then tricking them into eating a red pill each, saying that if they messed around again, their intestines would break and they would die, and something like 'If you change your mind first, the pill in your belly will burst immediately'."

"What kind of doggerel is this?"

Zhang Ruosu complained outrageously.

When he was young, he was shocked by *Investiture of the Gods*.

The unparalleled Three Pure Ones in the Daoist Canon, the highest existence of Daoism, were actually restricted.

Okay, *Investiture of the Gods* is a fan fiction of the Daoist Canon, so of course it can be whatever.

How were they restricted?

Each was fed a red pill, and if anyone caused trouble, their stomachs would rot and they would die.

So you have to be good.

Are you sure this isn't arsenic?

Are you Hongjun, or is it Song Jiang of Timely Rain?

Moreover, three thousand mortal soldiers and horses, real mortal soldiers and horses, left Yang Jian helpless. According to this statement, this Yang Jian may not be able to defeat the historical version of Chu Bawang. The old Daoist felt that he could carry a sword and kill his way in and start a massacre. You can write fan fiction, but don't demean our Daoist Three Pure Ones so badly.

At least in *Journey to the West*, the Three Pure Ones, Tai Shang, were overturned by the monkey, after all, gods have combat sides and support sides. That old man's position is obviously not for fighting, but the number one arms dealer in the Three Realms. All the famous magical weapons were produced by Tai Shang, and he had particularly good interpersonal relationships.

That guy's house has everything.

It's like a military weapons museum.

By the way, he's also the only one in *Journey to the West* who can pluck the flesh under the monkey's occiput.

He has a ridiculously good relationship with Sun Wukong.

Speaking of which, if traced back from the monkey, can the identity of Tai Shang also be refined into an incarnation with [the person who made the tool for Yu the Great to measure the water level], using legend and reality as anchors? Um, even if there is such a person, he probably died long ago...

The old Daoist didn't care.

Wei Yuan touched his chin and said as if chatting with a friend, "It's not impossible. Speaking of which, the Four Imperials are..."

The old Daoist replied, "As everyone knows, there are usually five Heavenly Kings."

Wei Yuan was surprised: "The current Four Imperials all have five candidates?"

The old man looked at him, and he looked at the old Daoist.

Zhang Ruosu spat out two words: "Six."

"............"

Then what are you doing bringing up the old joke that there are five Heavenly Kings, Wei Yuan's lips twitched:

"Well, who are they?"

The old Daoist said casually: "The core is the Jade Emperor, the Arctic Ziwei Emperor, the Western Gouchen Emperor, the Eastern Taiyi Qing Emperor, the Southern Longevity Emperor. Of course, this Longevity Emperor is not the Antarctic Immortal Weng. His real name should be the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder God Universalization Heavenly Lord."

"And, even the legends of Daoism must respect and revere Houtu, or rather, the Houtu Emperor Earth God."

Houtu Emperor Earth God...

The old Daoist didn't notice the smile on the white-haired Daoist's lips disappear.

Zhang Ruosu sighed and said, "So, which one are you planning to insert? The Four Imperials Ruling the Heavens technique relies on the Four Heavenly Emperors to control the talisman array. While exerting and strengthening the effect of the talisman array, it reversely strengthens the power of the holders of these four array eyes."

"If the original talisman array was okay with just me,"

"If you completely connect the God Era Four Seas, it would be impossible for me to maintain the operation of this array alone... Huh? Wei Yuan, what's wrong with you?"

"Huh? It's nothing..."

The white-haired Daoist shook his head and said:

"That array eye token of the Houtu Emperor Earth God, please leave it to me, Daoist friend..."

"Houtu, the foundation of all things in the world, great virtue carries all things, creation is infinite."

"This array eye is indeed a suitable choice as the foundation of the array."

The old Daoist didn't suspect anything, took out a brown token, and handed it to Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan took the token, his fingers groping for the Daoist patterns remaining on it after being tempered for thousands of years. The old Daoist smiled and said, "Looking at you like this, you should already have someone to take on the position of Houtu?"

"Yes..."

The white-haired Daoist put away the array eye token, his tone rare and gentle, "I think, there will never be anyone else in the world more suitable for this position than her."

"In other words, as long as it is within the range of the array, holding this token will be able to get the blessing of the Heavenly Court Talisman Array, and within the range of the Talisman Array, the deeper the foundation and the more complete the array, the stronger the power that can be mobilized at one time."

"Right?"

The old man took two sips of wine and said, "Yes."

Wei Yuan nodded, thoughtful in his heart.

If the Heavenly Court Talisman Array can be connected to the Four Seas, and then find Hou and hand over the position of array eye to her, then it will be enough to allow Hou to obtain a certain degree of Heavenly Dao blessing. Even if it cannot have too obvious an increase to the top ten levels, this position, even if it is only a slight improvement, is huge.

"The perfection of the array..."

Wei Yuan clenched his five fingers, and rays of light ran through the void, turning into the current foundation of the Heavenly Court Talisman Array, which is basically maintained with the old Daoist's position of [Jade Emperor] as the core. After all, the Heavenly Court Talisman Array didn't have enough family business before, so this is enough.

However, if you want to achieve, not 'gathering the power of the Four Seas Heavenly Dao into the human Heavenly Court Talisman Array, so that the Heavenly Court Talisman Array restores its foundation', but on the contrary, 'spreading the Heavenly Court Talisman Array directly to the God Era Four Seas', just the Four Imperials Ruling the Heavens Array is obviously not enough.

The old Daoist saw the white-haired Daoist in front of him reach out and point repeatedly on the array foundation.

Relying on his understanding of [Heaven] and [Earth].

Wei Yuan was able to clearly grasp the core points of the array, that is, the node positions that could best strengthen the power of the array. Finally, the old Daoist saw rays of light, either strong or weak, lit up on the wine table in front of him. The five elements complemented each other, and the stars were listed, everything was available.

Wei Yuan rubbed his eyebrows: "...I can only do this much."

"To perfect the array, I may need to find A-Liang."

The old Daoist was dumbfounded: "...You, you are..."

Wei Yuan said, "The Four Seas are too big, the array needs to be strengthened a little bit."

Zhang Ruosu said: "...Didn't you say, it's just to restore the foundation of the human world?"

Wei Yuan recalled the current chaos in the Four Seas, his lips twitched, and he sighed: "How should I say it... Daoist friend Zhang, we have no choice, everyone doesn't want to, but, there's no way, the power of those three guys is much stronger than I expected."

Huh?!

Wait, wait for me!

What did you do!

Zhang Ruosu's lips twitched and said, "Then, do you have any ideas for the Qi Luck core of the East Sea and the West Sea..."

Wei Yuan said, "I have a rough idea. It must be water-related; and it must have enough status to serve as a node connecting the human array and the Four Seas Heavenly Dao. After thinking about it, it may be him. I'll go find him later."

"There are some other nodes here that need your help, Daoist friend Zhang."

"This time, we'd better strengthen the talisman array once."

"Huh?!"

Zhang Ruosu blurted out, "What are you going to do?"

The old man saw Wei Yuan get up and reach out his five fingers to clench, so the stars released light together, the array foundation collapsed, leaving only the lit array nodes, the white-haired Daoist picked up the teacup and drank tea, when he lowered his eyes, the starlight constantly intertwined, weaving into a scroll.

One by one, the nodes fell down.

While weaving the scroll, they turned into names and node codes.

Three Pure Ones.

Four Imperials.

Five Elders.

Six Divisions.

Seven Primordials.

Eight Extremes.

Nine Luminaries.

Ten Capitals.

One by one, the names were arranged vertically, densely packed, not as many as the stars in the sky, but only a few simple nodes, the real nodes. Under the moonlight, the scroll woven purely with starlight unfolded and moved, faintly exuding a magnificent aura. The old Daoist stood up abruptly, his pupils constricted.

And the scroll was completed, and finally naturally rolled up and landed in Wei Yuan's hands.

A strand of white hair from the white-haired Daoist fell down and sealed the scroll.

His right hand was raised and fell flat, dividing the scroll into two, and then pushed it slightly to one side, one of which had already appeared in the old Daoist's arms.

"...You, this is."

"You chose it, Daoist friend Zhang. The Heavenly Court system in *Journey to the West* is more systematic than the Heavenly Gods of various departments. It's better to use these names as the array node codes, so that the talisman array can exert enough power, be complete enough, and be effective enough."

The white-haired Daoist put the scroll in his sleeve and said:

"Then, the selection on the human side will be left to you, and I will also look for others."

"In addition."

The white-haired Daoist had a mischievous look.

He stepped forward, leaned slightly, and said in a gentle and playful tone:

"Daoist friend Zhang."

"This poor Daoist did not lie."

The old Daoist slowly lowered his head, looking at the name that slowly appeared below the Three Pure Ones on the scroll.

………………

Hudi looked at the mountain in front of him, preparing to land.

When Wei Yuan decided to slightly strengthen the Heavenly Court Talisman Array, and in order to save Houtu, tried to further spread the Heavenly Court Talisman Array to the Four Seas, the old man's face twitched, and he suddenly screamed, and his eyes went black.

Damn it!

Wei Yuan!!!

The power of Buzhou Mountain seemed to have lost its original huge impact and could no longer allow Hudi to move forward.

The old man crashed to the ground.

Before he fainted, he saw a pair of feet in front of him.

He finally realized why, when the two of them picked up that Wei kid, Old Buzhou stayed far away from his apprentice.

Damn it, this kid...this kid...

Hudi, due to a lack of preparation for breaking through the realm, collapsed!

Am I going to become a laughing stock?

The old man looked up and saw that it was a tall human, struggling to reach out his hand: "Help..."

The person in front was tall and burly, holding a huge Zen staff in his right hand, his hand standing upright in front of his chest:

"Old man, are you okay?"

"Old man..."

The monk who came to the Great Wilderness to find opportunities looked at the old man, trying his best to carry Hudi on his back, his body swaying. Yuangjue's physique felt that this old man was incredibly heavy. If it were ordinary thinking, he should be vigilant at this moment, but the monk in front of him was different from others, his temperament was stubborn, he gritted his teeth and supported himself, and said:

"Amitabha."

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

"Old man, you fell in this place, it is your karma with this poor monk."

"You have karma with this poor monk, so this poor monk will definitely save you."
