Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful

Chapter 117 The Deal is Made in Secret

Seeing that Randeng remained silent, Zhunti didn't pay any attention.

To speak ill of sages?

I doubt Ran Deng would dare to do that.

After all, not every cultivator is named Haotian.

They all have solid backing and enormous merits.

After a moment's consideration, Zhunti gradually steered the conversation toward the main topic.

"If you have any difficulties, fellow Daoist, you can tell me!"

"We've both listened to the Dao together at Zixiao Palace. If it's not too difficult, I can certainly lend you a hand."

Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Randeng understood his intention.

They're here to recruit me!

But now that they've sided with the West, how will they explain this to Yuanshi Tianzun?

What about the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl that I planned?

Without the identity of a disciple of the Chan Sect, how will I plan to obtain the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl?

Whether as a wandering monk or as a follower of a Western religion.

If he dared to lay a hand on Zhao Gongming, the Tongtian Sect Leader would never let him off.

Only by recognizing oneself as a member of the Chan Sect can one have a chance to obtain the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl.

However, his status as a disciple of the Chan Sect prevented him from going any further.

What should I do?

Should we agree to Zhunti's request?

Zhunti watched as Randeng's expression kept changing.

I am certain that I will achieve the purpose of this trip.

Now that he was certain that he could achieve his goal, Zhunti was not in a hurry.

What needs to be done now is very simple.

We just need to address the concerns of the lamp-lighter and gradually resolve them.

Then the lamp will surely be converted to his Western religion.

Thinking of this, Zhunti didn't urge Randeng to speak, but just sat there waiting for Randeng to speak.

After a moment, Ran Deng had also organized his thoughts.

"I appreciate the sage's good intentions."

However, even a sage cannot help with this matter.

Upon hearing this, Zhunti replied, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry!"

If you don't tell me about your predicament, how will I know that I can't help you?

"Speak boldly, and I will know whether you can do it or not after hearing it."

Seeing what Zhunti said, Randeng was also somewhat tempted.

What if this person can solve it?

If the terms are agreed upon reasonably, then I'll have a way out.

Although the Sage Zhunti appears to be inferior to the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

But the West has two saints, so if things really come to blows...

Even the Primordial Celestial Venerable could not monopolize the two saints.

Then Ran Deng said, "To be honest, Your Majesty, I have not yet achieved the status of a Quasi-Saint."

There are many reasons.

Firstly, I do not possess the secret method for dismembering a corpse.

Secondly, I am also waiting for an opportunity.

Thirdly, it was due to the influence of the disciples of the Chan Sect.

Upon hearing Randeng's reply, Zhunti feigned surprise and asked, "How could this be?"

Yuanshi was a sage; he possessed the secret technique of severing corpses...

At this point, Zhunti deliberately stopped talking.

He then changed the subject and said, "I am unaware of Fellow Daoist Yuanshi's plans."

This is indeed a difficult matter.

I naturally possess the secret technique for severing corpses, and I am willing to share it with you, fellow Daoist.

However, once this secret method is given, it will be difficult for you to explain it to Fellow Daoist Yuanshi.

Moreover, you are not a member of my Western Sect, yet I have given you this secret technique..."

At this point, Zhunti showed a look of weighing his options.

Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Randeng's eyes immediately darkened.

really!

Even the sage Zhunti is unwilling to take this risk?

Zhunti, observing Randeng's expression, waited a moment and saw that the timing was just right.

Only then did he speak, "Fellow Daoist Ran Deng!"

It's not that I'm unwilling to help you.

However, the risks involved are quite significant.

Don't get lost while following the story; bookmark it and read "Primordial Era: This Heavenly Emperor is Too Powerful" anytime.

Now that you are a disciple of the Chan Sect, giving you this secret technique would only harm you.

However, if you, fellow Daoist, could join my Western Sect, I might be able to devise a plan for you in this matter.

Upon hearing this, Ran Deng was overjoyed.

The opportunity was regained, and Ran Deng almost failed.

Fortunately, being a cultivator who had experienced many trials and tribulations, Randeng immediately suppressed his elation.

He then said, "This... I am willing to accept the sage's suggestion."

However, this matter involves the sage of the Chan sect.

This humble Taoist priest is truly somewhat uncertain.

Burning Lamp's meaning was clear: the Corpse-Slaying Secret Technique alone was not enough to make him take this risk.

Saints are not so easy to betray.

If anything goes wrong, he will be reduced to ashes when he lights the lamp.

Upon hearing Ran Deng's words, Zhun Ti immediately understood the situation.

He had clearly been persuaded.

Then all that's needed is to soothe his anxiety, and the matter will be settled.

However, some things still need to be discussed and agreed upon now.

Otherwise, if something unexpected happens in the future, this person who can have the idea of ​​abandoning the Chan Sect today will surely be able to abandon the Western Sect again if he encounters the same thing in the future.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhunti said, "I am naturally aware of your concerns, fellow Daoist."

Yes.

I have not asked you, fellow Daoist, to join my Western Sect now.

Let's wait a bit.

Waiting for the right opportunity.

When the time comes, I will discuss this with Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, and your concerns will no longer be a problem.

As for you joining my Western Religion, I hope you can take charge of the religion for a period of time.

of course.

I will not let you work in vain.

I am willing to offer a primordial spiritual treasure as a reward for your work.

What do you think, my friend?

Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Randeng also began to ponder them silently.

From this perspective, the deal appears to be clear and transparent.

The Western religion resolved the potential danger of abandoning the Chan religion, while simultaneously developing a secret method for severing one's own corpse.

The price he would have to pay was to betray the Chan Sect.

This sage intended to first take charge of the Western religion for a period of time, as an example for Maitreya and his followers to take charge of the great religion.

The reward is a primordial spiritual treasure.

The deal was explained very clearly, and things seemed to be going well.

After a moment of contemplation, Randeng replied, "Since the Sage has extended such a generous invitation, it would seem rather ungrateful of me to refuse."

As the sage said, we should wait until the time is right.

I then devoted myself to the Western religion.

I would like to express my gratitude to the Sage in advance!

Upon receiving an affirmative answer from Randeng, Zhunti could no longer hide the smile on his face.

Become!

After that, Western religions began by having a quasi-saint.

Moreover, managing a large number of schools becomes much easier.

With Randeng setting an example for Maitreya and his followers, it's believed that Maitreya and his group won't do something like what Guangchengzi did.

From then on, Western religion had a stable foundation.

Immediately, Zhunti spoke up, "I am happy to see this happen so that you can relieve my worries, fellow Daoist."

It's settled then.

When the time is right, I will inform my friends to join my Western religion.

Upon hearing this, Ran Deng nodded and said, "Good!"

We will obey the sage's command!

"In that case, fellow Daoist, please focus on your cultivation for now."

We must also be careful that the Chan sect doesn't secretly cause trouble, which could lead to us getting entangled in problems.

I take my leave!

After saying this, Zhunti turned back to Mount Sumeru.

After Zhunti left, Randeng began to ponder.

Upon reflection, Ran Deng discovered the strangeness of the matter.

Then why did Zhunti come to visit?

It was clear that they had already made up their minds to try and recruit me into the Western religion.
