The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation could destroy heaven and earth. The murderous aura of the four great swords was rampant. Once the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was activated, even a Sage would not be able to escape for a while. It had the ferocious power to destroy heaven and earth.
During the Investiture of the Gods War, Tongtian relied on the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation to fight against the four Sages. Although the formation was destroyed and he left the Aquamarine Palace in the end, it was a glorious defeat. It also made Tongtian's name resound between heaven and earth.
Rumble!
When the heavens released murderous aura, the stars changed. When the earth released murderous aura, dragons and snakes rose from the land. When the man released murderous aura, heaven and earth were turned upside down!
The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was the number one killing weapon of the Way of Heaven. When the four swords were activated together, they could destroy both the past and the present. This was not just a saying. It had a terrifying power that could frighten even gods and ghosts.
Nüwa and Yuanshi looked solemn. The various forces had already stopped fighting. Everyone looked at Tongtian with horror in their eyes.
It was because if the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was really activated, no one present could escape. The only outcome was death. How could this not make them feel terrified?
"Junior Brother, are you really going to disregard everything for this evil creature?" Yuanshi Tianzun rebuked in a cold voice.
"No one can kill the person that I, Tongtian, want to protect."
This simple sentence clearly stated Tongtian's intention. The Immortal Slaying Sword Formation rumbled and rotated in the firmament. The murderous intent of the Heavenly Dao that poured down was simply shocking, further proving that Tongtian was not just saying it for fun.
"Junior Sister, why don't we …!"
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned. Obviously, he had the intention to retreat. If a battle between Sages really started for Ye Xuan, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Senior Brother Yuanshi, if this boy doesn't die, he will become a great threat to us in the future." Nüwa didn't hesitate at all, and decisively rejected Yuanshi Tianzun's proposal.
The senses of a Sage were too sensitive. Ye Xuan had always been in a desperate situation and had even reached the Sage-to-be Realm. If this continued for a long time, it was not impossible for him to become a Sage. Moreover, Ye Xuan had long become a knot in Nüwa's heart. If she did not kill him, how could Nüwa be at ease?
"Tongtian, since you are not afraid of provoking Master Hongjun, I will fight you to the death today." Nüwa had already thrown caution to the wind. Ye Xuan must die today. Even if the Tongtian activated the Immortal Slaying Sword Array, she would not retreat in the slightest.
"Then I will grant you your wish." Tongtian was indifferent and emotionless. His robe exploded, and the killing holy light of Tongtian spread out. The Immortal Slaying Sword Array rumbled and rotated. The Four Great Killing Swords emitted sword radiance that could destroy the world.
Heaven and earth stagnated, and time froze. Spatial cracks appeared between heaven and earth. The rotation of the Immortal Slaying Sword Array became more and more terrifying, and gradually distorted the heaven and earth of the Three Realms, as if the world was about to collapse.
"Daoist Tongtian, please wait a moment."
Suddenly, at this critical moment, two figures strolled over from the west. The sky was filled with golden lotuses blooming in the void, and an extremely grand chanting of sutras could be heard.
The holy light of heaven and earth rippled. A bamboo pole quietly lay between heaven and earth, and also stopped the Immortal Slaying Sword Array from pouring out the Heavenly Dao's killing intent.
The Wonderful Tree of Seven Treasures, the most sacred object of Buddhism, could wipe out all things in the world. When this object appeared between heaven and earth, Tongtian's expression changed, while Nüwa and Yuanshi were extremely surprised.
"Zhunti's guidance!"
Tongtian enunciated each word clearly. His eyes were extremely gloomy, and his brows were tightly knitted together.
The Two Sages of the West floated over without a trace of dust or killing intent. Although the two Sages were dressed in Daoist attire, they were the founders of Western Buddhism.
"Ye Xuan, when I activate the Immortal Slaying Sword Array to trap the four of them, you should quickly escape to the Lower Realm."
"Remember, before you become a Sage, you must never reveal your true body."
Tongtian stood proudly in the sky, but he was secretly transmitting his voice to Ye Xuan. This was because Tongtian did not need to ask the Two Sages of the West's intentions. They were definitely on Nüwa and Yuanshi's side.
"Greetings, Senior Brothers and Sisters." Zhunti smiled and nodded, giving off a feeling of a spring breeze.
The Two Sages of the West had listened to Dao in the Purple Cloud Palace in the past and were accepted as nominal disciples by Ancestor Hong Jun. In terms of seniority, they were naturally inferior to Three Pure Ones and Nüwa. This was also the reason why they addressed the three Sages as Senior Brothers and Sisters.
"Junior Brothers, please help me break this Immortal Slaying Sword Array." Nüwa expressed her thoughts directly without any nonsense. This was because she knew that Ye Xuan had almost destroyed Spirited Mountain and had a great grudge against Western Buddhism.
"Senior Sister, please calm down."
Zhunti put his palms together and smiled. Then he looked at Tongtian and said, "Senior Brother Tongtian, the catastrophe of heaven and earth was born because of Ye Xuan. Senior Brother Tongtian, please understand right and wrong. Let the two of us return to the Bodhi Tree and reflect on our mistakes until the hostility in his chest is worn out. This is a great merit and great fortune."
"Zhunti, you …?"
Hearing Zhunti's words, Nüwa's expression changed. She did not expect that the Two Sages of the West had not come here to kill Ye Xuan, but to take Ye Xuan back to the Western Paradise.
The words of the Sages were not false. Since Zhunti said to reflect on his mistakes, Ye Xuan's life would not be in danger. However, it was clear that the Two Sages of the West had other plans. It was definitely not that simple.
"You want to take Ye Xuan away?"
Tongtian's expression froze and then instantly became gloomy. He did not believe that the Two Sages of the West would be so kind. There must be some conspiracy behind this.
"If Senior Brother Tongtian does not allow it, then the two of us can only stand on Senior Sister Nüwa's side." Zhunti let out a long sigh.
Taking advantage of a crisis, brazenly taking advantage of a crisis. It was almost the same trick as the Apotheosized War of the past!
The Apotheosized War of the Apotheosized War of the past was a battle between the Chan School and the Jie School, but the biggest beneficiaries were the Two Sages of the West. If Yuanshi Tianzun had not invited the Two Sages of the West to break the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation together, Western Buddhism would not have been able to prosper after the Apotheosized War.
How similar was the scene today to that of the past?
The Two Sages of the West were once again taking advantage of a crisis, but the only difference was that their purpose this time was to take Ye Xuan away.
"Zhunti, are you threatening me?" Tongtian's aura was cold and sharp, and wisps of Heaven Way's killing intent filled the air.
"Senior Brother Tongtian, don't be angry!"
The Taoist priest smiled and looked at Ye Xuan. He nodded kindly at him and said, "Little Friend Ye Xuan, you saw what happened today. Senior Brother Tongtian fought two fellow disciples for you, but you killed too many people. Do you really want to see Senior Brother Tongtian fight to the death with us?"
Looking at the kind smile on Zhunti's face, Ye Xuan was expressionless. No one knew what he was thinking, but Ye Xuan's lips curved into a self-mocking smile.
Ye Xuan was not a three-year-old child. He understood everything in front of him.
Tongtian was indeed very strong. With the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation in his hands, even if Yuanshi Tianzun and Nüwa joined forces, they would not be able to do anything to Tongtian.
However, with the arrival of the Two Sages of the West, everything had changed. If the Two Sages of the West joined forces with Yuanshi and Nüwa, even the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation could be broken. At that time, he would definitely die. Even if Tongtian wanted to protect him, it would be useless.
