Eighty years later, in the world of the living, the High Heaven! In the Heavenly Fate Pavilion.
A group of important officials of the Daikon State stood on both sides.
"Holy King, fifty years ago, the Southern, Western, and Northern Expeditionary Armies completed their missions. The surrounding twelve territories have been completely stabilized in the past fifty years. We can continue to send out troops at any time!" Yi Yan said in a low voice.
Zhong Shan tapped his fingers on the table lightly and said, "Now is not the time!"
"Father, our army actually had enough strength to continue the expedition to the North Continent thirty years ago. Why did we delay it until now?" Zhong Tian asked in confusion.
"Soon!" Zhong Shan shook his head and did not explain.
Everyone could only keep quiet.
"Has the location of Zhuangzi's next lecture been decided?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Yes, it has been decided. The Jiabei Territory is next to the Daikon State's territory. Now, the remaining ten Holy Halls and five Taoist temples in the North Continent have formed an alliance to resist the Daikon State's alliance. Zhuangzi has been elected as the leader of the alliance. In the past few lectures, Zhuangzi has become more and more aggressive. Now, the lecture venue is close to our territory. This is obviously a provocation! "Zhong Tian frowned.
"Is Zhuangzi's prestige getting higher and higher?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Yes, at least in the ten territories, his prestige is getting higher and higher. Even during this lecture, Marquis Cheng will also give a lecture. This time, the momentum of the alliance against the Daikon State is unprecedentedly high! This time, are we still going to back down? "Zhong Tian frowned and said.
"The higher you climb, the harder you fall. It's time!" Zhong Shan said in a low voice.
"Huh?" Zhong Tian was slightly surprised.
"The Holy King is going to make a move?" Yi Yan's eyes lit up.
"That's right. This time, Tian 'er and he will give a lecture at the same time. The location will be set in the Jiabei Territory opposite the Jiabei Territory. They will be separated by an ocean!" Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"Huh?" Zhong Tian didn't understand.
"Yi Yan, send a message to Xiao Wang in the Northernmost Land. After Zhuangzi's lecture, we're ready to send troops!" Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"The Holy King is going …?" Yi Yan frowned.
"That's right. This time, I'm going to cripple Zhuangzi so that the alliance they've formed will be leaderless. In their panic, they'll be like a sheet of loose sand. Furthermore, Tian 'er, when you preach the Dao, you'll have to change your language. Every ten years, a territory will join the Daikon State!" Zhong Shan smiled.
"Alright. All these years, I've been predicting the future, but Zhuangzi has constantly refuted my predictions during sermons. Countless experts in the North Continent are wavering. This time, if Zhuangzi is crippled, then it will be an irresistible trend!" Zhong Tian said with a smile.
"But this time, besides Zhuangzi, there's also Cheng Hou. How will the Holy King fight them?" Liu Wushuang asked doubtfully.
"Holy King, are you going to the Dreamlore Weave?" Yi Yan raised an eyebrow.
Everyone fell silent.
With a slight frown, Zhong Shan said in a deep voice, "After a hundred years, I've successfully lured Zhuangzi away from the Dreamlore Weave. Last time, I was in a hurry and didn't pay much attention to it. There must be a great secret in the Dreamlore Weave."
"What great secret? I've been there a few times, but I didn't feel anything special about it. "Zhong Tian was puzzled.
"No, if there's no secret in the Dreamlore Weave, then it's impossible for Zhuangzi to suddenly change his temperament. He's opposing the Daikon State because he's afraid that I'll unify the Northern Continent and expose his secret. Therefore, I must go!" Zhong Shan shook his head.
"But …!" Zhong Tian was still worried.
"There's no need to worry. I'll give you ten Zu Xian. Your mission is to stop Cheng Hou for me when the time comes!" Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.
"Mm!" Zhong Tian nodded.
"In three years, Zhuangzi will give a sermon. Yi Yan, you can arrange the battle. Once Zhuangzi is defeated, immediately spread the news to the world. The army of the Daikon State will gather the remaining territories of the Northern Continent as quickly as possible!" Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Zhuangzi's training hall in the Dreamlore Weave.
"Giving a sermon across the sea? Zhong Shan will accompany him? We've finally lured Zhong Shan out of the High Heaven! "Cheng Hou said with a smile.
"But I keep feeling that something isn't right!" Zhuangzi said in a deep voice.
"Something isn't right? Isn't this what you've been waiting for? "Cheng Hou asked.
"It's just that it's all too easy. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble you to help me keep an eye on Zhong Shan. As long as Zhong Shan is within our sights, my worries will be unfounded! "Zhuangzi said with a frown.
"Are you worried about the Dreamlore Weave?" Cheng Hou asked.
"I've already invited ten good friends of Zu Xian to oversee the Dreamlore Weave. There's also two disciples of Zu Xian. There's no need to worry!" Zhuangzi said indifferently.
"Alright!" Cheng Hou said.
"I'll pass on the divine ability 'Collapse' to you now! After this sermon, I'll have the other Weave Lords attack with me. When the time comes, you'll attack as well. It'll be best if you can destroy Zhong Shan. Even if you can't, you'll be able to severely injure him! You'll cause the Daikon State to lose all of its prestige! The Weave Lords have already gathered their forces. Once Zhong Shan dies or Zhong Shan is injured, they'll immediately attack the Daikon State, "Zhuangzi said coldly.
"Alright!"
Zhuangzi and Sage Cheng Hou's sermon was in the Northern Weave, while Sage Zhong Tian's sermon was in the Southern Weave. They were separated by an ocean, but at the same time?
When the news spread, the entire Northern Continent was in an uproar.
In the past hundred years, Sage Zhong Tian and Zhuangzi had each given five sermons, and each of them had shown their favor to the world. Sage Zhong Tian had even said that the Daikon State had unified the Northern Continent, but Zhuangzi had said that the Daikon State was going against the flow.
After five sermons, everyone could see that Zhuangzi and Zhong Tian were competing against each other.
However, this had greatly benefited countless powerhouses in the Northern Continent. As long as there was a sermon, powerhouses would flock over.
Sermon? It had already become the most sensitive topic in the Northern Continent.
However, the sixth sermon was even more amazing. Northern Weave and Southern Weave? Sermons at the same time? Zhuangzi had even invited Sage Cheng Hou?
The moment they received the news, countless powerhouses rushed over, all for this unprecedented event.
Not only did they listen to the sermon, but some of the smarter powerhouses also felt a different atmosphere. Perhaps something big would happen during the sermon.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
Southern Weave, a place near the sea. There were countless golden lotuses in the void, and Sanskrit chants could be heard everywhere. Countless powerhouses sat cross-legged respectfully, facing a vast lotus platform on a mountain in the center. That lotus platform was where Sage Zhong Tian would give his sermon.
However, Sage Zhong Tian did not go to the lotus platform. Instead, he stood at the entrance of a large hall in an inconspicuous valley.
A group of important members of the Daikon State stood at the entrance of the hall. Of course, everyone was gathered around one person, Zhong Shan!
"I will use the Heavenly Heart and Heavenly Path to suppress Zhuangzi and Cheng Hou across the ocean!" Zhong Tian said.
Zhong Shan looked at Cheng Hou and nodded, "With you in charge, I can rest assured!"
"Thank you, Father!"
"Go!" Zhong Shan said.
Zhong Tian nodded and disappeared from the spot. He instantly appeared on the lotus platform on the mountain peak, ready to give his sermon.
"Greetings, Immortal Buddha Zhong Tian!" Everyone who heard the sermon said respectfully.
"Mm!" Zhong Tian nodded and sat cross-legged.
At the entrance of the hall, Zhong Shan sat on the Dragon Throne. The two empresses of the Daikon State sat on the Dragon Throne, Wei Kui 'er and Gan Bao' er. Zhong Shan's hand gently circled around their shoulders and rested on the armrests of the Dragon Throne. It was as if they were sitting in Zhong Shan's embrace. As they chatted, they looked at Zhong Tian and gave his sermon.
On the other side of the Ocean, there was also a grand sermon.
Countless powerhouses sat cross-legged around a tall mountain. The peak of the mountain was where Zhuangzi would appear.
Not far away, in a large hall.
Cheng Hou and Zhuangzi were looking at a screen. On the screen was the scene where Zhong Shan was.
"Zhong Shan really is here!" Zhuangzi said in a low voice.
"It's Zhong Shan, not a trick. More importantly, Zhong Shan's two empresses are in his embrace? Hehe, what a romantic emperor. Zhong Shan values these two empresses. Don't worry, Zhong Shan won't let anyone else pretend to be him hugging his women! "Cheng Hou said.
"Then I'll start my sermon. It's your turn later. First, you have to suppress the opposing Zhong Tian in terms of momentum! "Zhuang Zi said solemnly.
"Mm!" Cheng Hou nodded.
In the sea outside the Dreamlore Weave.
Two figures flew over in the air, both dressed in black robes. If Zhuangzi and Cheng Hou were here, their eyes would have popped out of their sockets. Zhong Shan? How could it be Zhong Shan?
Zhong Shan and Mr. Shi!
"Holy King, can the empress' transformation technique really deceive a Saint?" Mr. Shi frowned.
"Don't worry, Youyou's transformation technique sometimes makes it difficult for even me to distinguish her from the outside. Moreover, Youyou sees my temperament and style every day, so it's natural for her to imitate me more realistically. Tian 'er is a Saint, so she can't see through him from the outside. Besides, Kui 'er and Bao' er can prove that she's the real deal! "Zhong Shan said with certainty.
"Mm, since that's the case, I have nothing to worry about. However, it might not be easy to enter Zhuangzi's dojo. If Zhuangzi dares to go out, there must be some arrangements. Unless we use force, otherwise …! "Mr. Shi said in a low voice.
"Use force? Hehe, there's no need. Zhuangzi's dojo doesn't have a Sea of Clouds of Merit or Clouds of Providence. We can walk in openly! "Zhong Shan laughed.
"Oh?" Mr. Shi was surprised.
"Whoosh!"
Bajiji Tenao suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
"Hehe, I almost forgot!" Mr. Shi laughed.
Bajiji Tenao's figure changed slightly, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a man with a natural Dao aura.
Zhuangzi? Bajiji Tenao turned into Zhuangzi. It was exactly the same!
"Put on your hats. Zhuangzi will take us into Zhuangzi's dojo and understand everything inside!" Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"Yes!" Mr. Shi smiled and pulled up his hat.
"Please follow me!" Zhuangzi smiled faintly.
"Whoosh!" The three of them flew into the Daybreak Weave.
