Chapter 456: 454. The Battle Between Buddhism and Taoism

The moment the purple qi appeared, the city guarding formation of Zheng Yang City immediately reacted.

The huge magic formation once again enveloped the entire city and collided with the purple qi in the sky above.

However, when the array radiance came into contact with the purple qi, the vast purple qi was like an endless abyss, absorbing the power of the array attack.

As the Taiji Diagram spun, it did not counterattack the Zheng Yang City formation below.

The West Qin Crown Prince, Li Yuanbang, who was in charge of the city defense formation, was controlling the formation. It temporarily calmed down, but he was still wary of the sky that had been dyed purple.

Li Yuanbang and the other high-level Western Qin experts sighed softly as they looked at the Green Bull Monastery Head and the other two Sect Masters on the Taiji Diagram.

Looking at the situation before him, it was needless to say that the Green Bull Abbey Dean had successfully convinced the sect masters of Kunwu Mountain and Red City Mountain to advance and retreat together.

The reputation of the Green Bull Temple as the leader of the world’s Taoist sects was not empty talk.

Before this, Western Qin suppressed the buddha path and helped the three famed mountains of the Dao Sect to gain a firm foothold, suppressing the buddha holy land, the western paradise. They had already predicted the situation today.

If the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce, was still here, this scene might not have appeared.

However, the West Qin Great Emperor wasn’t here, and the Green Bull Monastery Head had personally come from the east. The current situation wasn’t surprising.

However, Western Qin still hoped to save and stop it.

Unfortunately, it seemed that there was no need to struggle anymore.

Taoist Shou Que, the Sect Leader of Taiyi Mountain, looked at the Sect Leader of Kunwu Mountain on the left of Green Bull Abbey Dean and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

He had a good relationship with the other party.

Hence, Li Yuanbang and the people of the western paradise hoped that he would make a trip to the Kunwu Mountain and convince the sect master of the Kunwu Mountain, Daoist Green Cauldron, to stand on the side of Western Qin.

But now that Perfected Green Cauldron had come with Abbey Dean Green Bull, his decision was clear.

“Senior Martial Brother Shou Que is coming to Kunwu Mountain as a guest. Why don’t we go together later?” Daoist Qing Ding said.

Daoist Shou Que was silent for a moment.

The West Qin Crown Prince Li Yuanbang looked at the Green Bull Monastery Head and asked, ‘”‘Perfected One, what can I do for you?”

“I was in seclusion before. Now that I’ve come out, I’m just here to visit a few old friends. I have no intention of offending Western Qin.” The Abbey Dean said casually, ” The demons have come back. Your father fought to the end. He is a role model of the righteous path. I also hope that he will have a long life and return safely. We can catch up then. ‘

“Thank you for praying for my father.” Li Yuanbang said calmly.

“Senior Martial Brother Shou Que, please.” The Abbey Dean spoke, ” Abbot Pu Hui of the western paradise is unwell. Let’s go visit him together.

When the head of the Arhat Hall of the western paradise, Grandmaster Shan Ming, heard this, he pressed his palms together and chanted a Buddhist chant, “Thank you for thinking about my abbot.”

Then, he shut his mouth and did not say anything else.

No one in Zhengyang City could stop Monastery Head Green Bull from doing anything.

Whether they could defend Zhengyang City or how long they could defend it was a question.

Monastery Master Green Bull naturally came and went as he pleased.

Reverend Shan Ming and the other monks of the western paradise could only hope that their abbot could rely on the mountain guarding formation to block this number one expert of the dao path before them.

The abbot’s injuries had yet to recover. Today, to the western paradise, it would surely be a huge test or even a calamity.

No one was guarding Taoist Master Que.

They knew that Taoist Priest Shou Que had no choice.

Or rather, there was no point for him to stay here.

It was obvious that Mount Taiyi couldn’t avoid the lightning strike of Green Bull Temple.

Regardless of whether it was the Western Qin Empire or the western paradise, they could only protect themselves now. It was difficult for them to take the initiative to seek justice for Taiyi Mountain.

Previously, he had thought that with everyone working together, he could ask

for the help of experts to block the footsteps of Green Bull Temple outside of

Western Qin.

However, the Abbey Dean had taken action personally, and the alliance in the Western Qin territory no longer existed. Now, it was time to break them one by one.

It was inhumane to ask Taoist Priest Shou Que to stay under such circumstances.

Daoist Priest Shou Que sighed. He speechlessly bowed to Li Yuanbang and the other Western Qin experts as well as Grandmaster Shan Ming of the western paradise. After that, he exited the grand hall and soared into the air.

Li Yuanbang and the others didn’t stop him. They watched silently as Taoist Priest Shou Que’s figure rose into the purple qi in the sky.

The old Taoist priest stood side by side with the sect masters of Kunwu Mountain and Red City Mountain on the Taiji Diagram.

The Abbey Dean, who looked like a young Taoist priest in a simple gray robe, smiled and nodded at him. Then, he turned around and looked at Zhengyang City again.”Sorry for disturbing you today. When I have free time later, I will pay you a formal visit.”

After saying that, the purple qi rolled up the Taiji Diagram and disappeared from the sky.

The sky above Zhengyang City turned from purple to green again.

In the palace hall, the remaining people looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.

This time, even the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Heavenly River might not be able to help.

On the one hand, after the battle with the Blood River, the old sword immortal’s injuries had become more serious and he could no longer fight. The Empress also needed to devote more energy to looking after her own Dongzhou and the Heavenly River to prevent others from trying to take advantage of them.

On the other hand, during the battle between the Heavenly River and the Blood River, Monastery Master Green Bull had helped the Heavenly River. This was a genuine favor. If they didn’t completely fall out with each other, they would have to give face to Monastery Master Green Bull elsewhere.

Of course, Monastery Master Green Bull knew his limits.

This time, he came here to fight between Buddhism and Taoism, and he didn’t want to touch West Qin at all.

However, everything was happening on the ground of West Qin.

Right now, he had no intention of shaking the authority and prestige of Western Qin. He wanted to sweep through the area like lightning, removing the influence of the western paradise and Buddhist League.

He would replace it with his own Dao Sect.

The abbot of the western paradise, Puhui, was also injured because he fought against Ye Tianmo.

The Abbey Dean didn’t mean to kill them all.

Zheng Yang City soon received the news that the Abbey Dean didn’t make a move at the western paradise.

He quietly guarded outside the Buddhist Holy Land.

He had no intention of attacking.

On the other hand, Abbot Puhui and many Buddhist experts in the temple naturally did not have to think about leaving.

Hence, just like how the hegemonic powers of the western paradise faced off in the airspace above Zhengyang City, it was the same as sealing the Western Qin experts within the city, preventing them from leaving. Right now, the western paradise was in the same situation.

As for Green Bull Temple, Taiyi, Kunwu, and Chicheng, they could sweep away all the Buddhist factions on the ground of Western Qin.

Among them, there were the side branches of the western paradise and there were also the other powers that respected the western paradise.

Now that they had lost the western paradise’s guidance, it was truly difficult for them to resist against the experts of the Dao Sect.

“Right now, we can only endure for the time being.” Li Yuanbang looked at Master Shan Ming and sighed.

“This old monk and my fellow disciples will go out and lend a hand.” Grandmaster Shan Ming said.

“Monastery Master Green Bull should have arranged for experts to wait for you.” Li Yuanbang said.

“We can only do our best.” Grandmaster Shan Ming nodded.

After saying that, the old monk left a portion of the monks to stay in Zhengyang City just in case. Then, he brought the rest of the people out of the city to help.

Li Yuanbang calmly watched the other party leave, then quietly instructed,

“”Hurry up and find the whereabouts of Imperial Father and Vice General Leng.”

Everyone from West Qin agreed.

Chen Luoyang left the Ancient Gods Clan’s headquarters to investigate Zheng Chi’s whereabouts.

This time, Xie Buxiu was not the only one who came out with him.

The entire Red Dust Ancient Gods Clan had a large amount of manpower and resources that he could use now.

It seemed like his foundation was still shallow, but those in the sect who were well-informed had a rough understanding of the three major events in West Qin, Xian Tian Palace, and Heavenly River. This young looking Deputy Sect Leader was not to be underestimated.

The other party had caused quite a commotion in the Divine Lands, and it had already caught Red Dust’s attention.

In the end, when he really came to the Mortal Dust World, the commotion seemed to be even bigger.

No matter how much energy he possessed, it would be magnified at an even more exaggerated ratio.

Right now, it was still far from convincing the experts of the cult.

But now, no one believed that Vice Patriarch Chen’s authority came from Patriarch Jiang.

The majority of the people’s attitude toward Chen Luoyang was more of a wait-and-see attitude.

Now that Chen Luoyang was giving out orders, as long as it wasn’t a difficult problem, everyone would mostly follow his orders and slowly observe.

Even without Jiang Yi’s orders, it would be the same.

Now that Jiang Yi had announced that he would hand over Zheng Chi’s problem to Chen Luoyang, the Ancient Gods Clan would be able to operate without any hindrance.

“The Wilderness?” Chen Luoyang played with a jade talisman in his hand as he read the information contained within.

Xie Buxiu stood behind him, his eyes looking down, his nose looking down, his heart looking down, not saying a word.

However, Little Xie couldn’t help but be curious about the person in front of

Chen Luoyang.

The current Azure Dragon Hall Chief, Lian Buyi.

“That’s right, there’s something strange going on in the Wilderness.” Lian Bu Yi replied calmly, ” It’s very likely that it has something to do with Master.

However, we still need further confirmation. I’ve already made arrangements. ‘

The relationship between the Hundred Wild Clans and the Ancient Gods Clan wasn’t as bad as that of the South Chu Kingdom.

To be precise, the two families had always been eyeing the vast territory of South Chu.

However, it was also because of this reason that they were more likely to become the external aid that Elder Zheng Chi sought.

“Report immediately if you have any news.” Chen Luoyang looked at Lian Buyi.

Lian Buyi’s expression didn’t change as he nodded.

It was as if she had nothing to do with Zheng Chi.

What was even more bizarre was that Sect Leader Jiang Yi seemed to really think that Lian Buyi had nothing to do with her master, Zheng Chi.

Zheng Chi was faintly suspected of betraying the sect.

Lian Buyi was still sitting firmly in the seat of the Azure Dragon Hall’s Chief.

This caused many people in the sect to secretly mutter and be extremely curious.

Chen Luoyang seemed to be like Jiang Yi and was filled with trust in the woman before him. “Other than that, what about other aspects?”

‘ Green Bull Monastery Master entered Western Qin and gathered all the top cultivators of the Taoist Faction to destroy Buddha in Western Qin. ” Lian Bu Yi replied, ” Esteemed Green Bull personally blocked the entrance of the western paradise. Abbot Puhui and the experts of the western paradise are not allowed to go out. They can only watch as the Dao Sect runs amok. ‘

“However, a large number of Buddhist experts from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty have come from the west to help the Buddhist cultivators in the Western Qin territory. The two sides are currently engaged in a fierce battle.” Lian Buyi added.

Chen Luoyang nodded when he heard this.

There was no change on his face, but he was muttering in his heart..
