Chapter 341: Tai Bai's Sword Pressures the Six Sects, Lowering Their Eyebrows, as the National Teach
Chapter 341: Tai Bai's Sword Pressures the Six Sects, Lowering Their Eyebrows, as the National Teacher Intends to Expose the Monkey's True Form. (Part 1)
The wailing wind howls, and lead clouds stack upon each other.
Countless snowflakes, meticulously crafted by the Heavenly Artisan, tumble from the sky.
Dense and intertwined, they form a vast net in the sky, only to be torn apart and evaporated by an invisible force, instantly dissipating between Heaven and Earth.
In the Divine Capital, at the Little Spirit Sound Hall.
Countless sword lights clash and intertwine, dense and chaotic, like a raging storm of air currents and waves, wreaking havoc within the courtyard.
It's as if a great tribulation is brewing, sending chills down everyone's spines, an extreme oppression, and a terrifying atmosphere, all culminating in this moment, like a mountain of boulders crashing down from a towering peak, accompanied by a deafening roar!
An unstoppable and unblockable calamity!
"No one is to eat!"
Lu Tai Bai's words are cold and domineering, with a hidden intent and a soaring aura.
The tense atmosphere is instantly stretched to its limit.
His brow ridge seems to split open, and a sword light flashes, like a sudden hum, followed by a swift slash, aimed at Huangmei, the Great Mage, seated elegantly on his luxurious Buddha carriage.
In an instant, the courtyard's light vanishes, and a terrifying sword hum fills the air, like a raging storm in the desert, threatening to extinguish souls.
Everyone seems to smell the Three Calamities' Divine Annihilation Wind!
Lu Tai Bai's sword has merged with the power of the Divine Annihilation Wind!
Madman!
Seated on his extravagant carriage, adorned with Divine Essence Crystals, Huangmei's expression turns to one of pity, his palms pressed together in a gesture of apology.
But Lu Tai Bai lets out a cold laugh.
Indeed, the Little Spirit Sound Temple's bald donkey is skilled in shifting blame, a master of diversion.
He claims that the National Teacher invited them to test the top three Dragonlet Charts of the various sects, a secret known only to them...
Lu Tai Bai doesn't engage in idle chatter, not willing to spar verbally.
He takes a step forward, and the sword light seems to block the river, tearing open the courtyard's ground, cracks spreading like steam rising into the sky.
"Huangmei, no more words!"
"Fight!"
With a dazzling clash, the sword light in his hand trembles and slashes towards Huangmei, seated gracefully on his luxurious Buddha carriage.
In an instant, the courtyard's light vanishes, and a terrifying sword hum fills the air, like a raging storm in the desert, threatening to extinguish souls.

Madman!
Seated on his luxurious carriage, adorned with Divine Essence Crystals, Huangmei's expression shifts to one of resignation, his palms pressed together in a gesture of apology.
But Lu Tai Bai pays no heed, his eyes cold and determined.
In this chapter, the narrative unfolds as Lu Tai Bai, the protagonist, unleashes a powerful attack, creating a golden shield-like barrier with his palms, attempting to block the Tai Bai Sword. However, the clash of sword energy and Buddha light, silver and gold intertwining, resembles countless arrows crisscrossing with bursts of fire, air waves, and explosions.
The atmosphere within the courtyard becomes intense, with the ground cracking and dust rising. The top-tier experts, Gu Chang Qing, Ning Cai Shen, Bai Bu Yi, and Gu Cheng, among others, witness this display, their faces reflecting a mix of emotions. They release their Qi mechanisms and Heaven-Earth souls to contain the aftermath of the explosion within the small courtyard.
Despite their efforts, the annihilating wind power embedded in Lu Tai Bai's sword intent sweeps through, causing them pain as if their Heaven-Earth souls are being sliced. Lu Tai Bai has integrated this annihilating wind into his Dao Essence Sword, forming the Dao Essence Tribulation Sword. He is almost at the threshold of the Heaven's Tribulation Realm.
The powerful and terrifying divine nature rages between heaven and earth, intertwining with wrath. The ground stones are annihilated into powder, and the uncontrollable tremors in the air intensify.
After an unspecified period, the top-tier experts collaborate to suppress the disturbances, gradually restoring peace. Lu Tai Bai stands with his white robes fluttering, silver hair flying, hands crossed over his chest, and the silver-hued Tai Bai Sword floating above his shoulder, its sword light shimmering with intertwining rage.
Huangmei, the Great Mage, maintains a cold expression. A giant fissure appears on the golden bowl, as if tiny wind waves carry sword energy, gnawing at the crack.
This divine armament is ruined! Huangmei's face remains composed.
"Is it your intention, Tai Bai, to initiate a battle between the Divine Sects' leaders?" Huangmei inquires.
"Wouldn't that benefit the Dajing Dynasty, allowing them to rejoice in their success?" Lu Tai Bai replies.
Huangmei joins his palms, and a faint Buddha light emanates from his body, constantly flowing.
Ranked fourth in the Divine Spectrum and fifth at the Heavenly Gate Pass, Huangmei surpasses Lu Tai Bai in terms of status.
However, at this moment, Lu Tai Bai's aura seems to suppress Huangmei, partly due to the Dao Essence Tribulation Sword he wields.
It touches upon the essence of the Heaven's Tribulation Realm.
Lu Tai Bai, with crossed arms and silver brows, exudes intertwining rage from his eyes. He resembles an ancient sword immortal, emerging from a sealed sword tomb, guarded by countless sword energies.
"Do you have the audacity to say that?" Lu Tai Bai retorts. "When you, the National Teachers, blocked my Heavenly Origin Divine Sect's children, did you ever consider this?"
Lu Tai Bai continues with a cold tone, "If you want to initiate a battle, isn't it you? Or do you think that by provoking me, Lu Tai Bai, I should endure and sigh, embracing my children and enduring the same suffering as you?"
Lu Tai Bai's silver hair flies, and his gaze sweeps across the courtyard, observing the gathered experts.
Gu Chang Qing pauses, then turns to Ning Cai Shen, Gu Cheng, Zhao Chun Qiu, and Bai Bu Yi, the top-tier experts.
Finally, he exhales, his sword intent resounding. "I, Lu Tai Bai..."
"He's a sword cultivator!" someone exclaims.
Silence fills the courtyard as the Divine Sects' leaders ponder, their thoughts flashing and breaths heavy.
Gu Chang Qing's expression becomes solemn, and he opens his mouth but remains speechless.
"I am a sword cultivator."
Indeed, it is a direct expression from the heart, overwhelming like a mountain and river.
"Amitabha... This poor monk understands," Huangmei says, joining his palms. He suppresses his aura, unwilling to engage in a fight to the bitter end.
Although Lu Tai Bai has realized the Dao Essence Tribulation Sword and demonstrated its power, Huangmei, being ranked higher in the Divine Spectrum and Heavenly Gate Pass, naturally possesses a profound foundation. Engaging in a battle to expose this realization is unnecessary.
The surrounding Divine Sects' leaders nod slightly.
"This matter is indeed a result of our negligence. Invited by the National Teacher, we've harmed the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect's children. This poor monk is willing to compensate them," Huangmei says, joining his palms and bowing slightly.
As if Lu Tai Bai's sword has forced him to bow, Huangmei continues, "The Eternal Peach Branch has three Divine Essence Crystals. You cultivate the Three Lives Body, and I've severed one past life, leaving the future and present lives. How about compensating with one life?"
The atmosphere in the courtyard changes, and Huangmei abruptly raises his head. His aged face trembles, with drooping flesh.
Behind Lu Tai Bai, Shi Jian and Xuan Jiu reveal helpless expressions.
This is compensation?
One of the top-tier experts with the Three Lives Body is to compensate for the Divine Children's ruined Eternal Peach Branch and its Divine Essence Crystal?
Is this equivalent compensation?
It's like losing a Nine Luminary Divine Essence Crystal and asking for a Three Pures Divine Essence Crystal in return!
Shi Jian, covered by Xuan Jiu's dark armor, flashes his eyes. This Lu Tai Bai... is he really going to fight Huangmei, the old bald donkey? It's like asking for trouble!
The surrounding Divine Sects' leaders share this sentiment. Lu Tai Bai is indeed too aggressive.
However, the various Divine Sect Masters gathered here with the intention of testing Lu Tai Bai.
If Lu Tai Bai were to back down and retreat... then they would be taking advantage of the situation.
But no one expected Lu Tai Bai to be so unyielding.
Huangmei Great Mage stared at Lu Tai Bai, "Is this your true intention, Benefactor Tai Bai?"
Lu Tai Bai's sleeves fluttered, his five fingers spread out, and the tips of his fingers seemed to emit a clanging sword light. He suddenly clenched his fist around the Tai Bai Sword, which was enveloped in a wind of disaster...
"What do you think?!"
"Doesn't Buddhism teach that all lives are equal? How can the lives of the children of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect be less valuable than one of your incarnations, Huangmei?"
Huangmei suddenly burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay..."
"If Benefactor Tai Bai wants a Three Lives Body from me, I can..."
"However, the divine nature of the many children of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect in the peach branch is insufficient."
"How about we compare our Dragonlet Competition and Heroic Preliminary Banquet?"
Huangmei was bathed in Buddha light, his voice deep and solemn.
Lu Tai Bai's gaze intensified, "Oh? How do you propose we compare?"
He didn't think Huangmei would easily accept a Three Lives Body in exchange for the divine nature of the many children of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect. It was completely incomparable, the difference was too vast.
However, since Huangmei suggested a comparison, Lu Tai Bai was willing to listen. If it was too much, he could directly refuse and continue to overturn the table.
"Since everything started with the Preliminary Banquet, let it end with the Preliminary Banquet."
"Your Heavenly Origin Divine Sect should still have an undefeated Dragonlet, your personal disciple, Nian Xi Li. We'll use her victories in the Preliminary Banquet as the wager. If she can win seven consecutive matches and directly enter the main banquet of the Dragonlet Competition, it will count as a victory."
"The same goes for the Heroic Preliminary Banquet. If anyone from your Heavenly Origin Divine Sect can also win seven consecutive matches and enter the main banquet, I, the old monk, will accept the bet and willingly cut off a Three Lives Body. Furthermore, I'll hand over the Three Lives Body of the Sacred Hand Divine Bird to you to do as you please. How does that sound?"
Huangmei's voice seemed to contain the sound of Buddha, becoming vast and grand.
Lu Tai Bai narrowed his eyes, "A good scheme!"
"Do you think my Heavenly Origin Divine Sect can't produce a Dragonlet and a hero with the strength to win the Preliminary Banquet?"
"If we lose, the fighting spirit and temperament of my Heavenly Origin Divine Sect's disciples will suffer a severe blow..."
Lu Tai Bai sensed the malice in Huangmei's words.
"Amitabha... Benefactor Tai Bai, if I lose the bet, I'll cut off a Three Lives Body. Compared to that, what you lose is just a little temperament. Is that too much to ask?"
Huangmei spoke helplessly.
If he lost, he would have to cut off a Three Lives Body, which was a top-tier Three Lives Body!
He needed it to avoid tribulation!
His previous Three Lives Body had just been cut off, and if he were to cut off another one now, he would only have one left. Although it could be recondensed, it would take time...
It might take about five years to recondense a Three Lives Body.
Lu Tai Bai clenched the Tai Bai Sword, lightly dancing it, and countless sword lights and shadows were gathered into his fluttering sleeves.
"That's true..."
"Then let's compare."
Lu Tai Bai said indifferently.
For the Dragonlet Competition, there was Nian Xi Li, and for the Heroic Preliminary Banquet, there was her father, Li Che...
However, the requirement to win consecutively was indeed harsh, but Lu Tai Bai knew Li Che's abilities well. This guy... hid his strength, and now he had even advanced to the Divine Embryo...
Lu Tai Bai thought it was worth a try.
Even if they failed, there would be no loss.
But if they succeeded...
Huangmei would have to cut off a Three Lives Body!
"Swear an oath."
"Monks don't lie."
"I believe in your Amitabha. Let's swear by the Three Disasters Tribulation. If you break your oath, the Three Disasters Tribulation will be triggered early!"
Lu Tai Bai slightly raised his silver eyebrows as he spoke.
Huangmei's two long eyebrows twitched, as if a knot of resentment had formed in his heart!
"Good!"
Huangmei chanted, and the sound of Buddha reverberated, as if the Buddha light in the air had woven a vow, striking his brow ridge.
Lu Tai Bai nodded in satisfaction, then his gaze shifted to Gu Chang Qing, Ning Cai Shen, Gu Cheng, and other Divine Sect Masters.
"Huangmei Great Mage has set the example. What about you?"
Lu Tai Bai's eyebrows moved, and the Dao Essence Cataclysmic Sword began to spew out the God-Annihilating Wind once more...
Several Divine Sect Masters were filled with anger, but they understood...
Lu Tai Bai was indeed extorting them!
