There was no longer any possibility of reconciliation between Lu Xiaotian and the Pearl Buddhist Sect. To Ming Yi, he had destroyed his Sect and killed his Uncle-Master and Junior Brothers. That little bit of friendship had long vanished in the face of such a grudge.
Previously, Lu Xiaotian had always felt that the Buddhist Sect, as the mainstay of the Human Race, had the ability to stabilize the universe. Even now, this idea had not changed. Even if the Buddhist Sect was not as strong as the Jade Pure Immortal Palace and some other sects and did not have many advantages, Lu Xiaotian still felt that the Buddhist Sect would grow again. Sooner or later, it would return to its peak.
This was the inheritance of the Buddhist Sect. It would not completely decline because of the death of one or a few Mahayana cultivators. This inheritance was already engraved in the bones. It was unlike the Crimson Moon Desert. When Lu Xiaotian was around, many forces in the Crimson Moon Desert could gather together. However, once something happened to Lu Xiaotian, there would be internal discord. Even if Xiang Kuo, He Hu, and the Eight-legged Demonic Ox Beast Niu Kun had a good personal relationship in the past, there was no question of who was in command. Even if they did not fight for power, they would eventually go their own ways.
The Human Race, or rather this world, needed an immortal Sect like the Buddhist Sect. This idea was especially strong after Lu Xiaotian met the jade-faced scholar. Lu Xiaotian was dedicated to Dao and did not mind helping those close to him. However, he had no intention of establishing a sect like the Buddhist Sect. He could only let other sects play such a role in the future.
Although Ming Yi had doubts about Lu Xiaotian's current attitude, Lu Xiaotian did not explain the reason to Ming Yi. In any case, with Ming Yi overseeing the Buddhist Sect and the Mahayana monk puppet, the Buddhist Sect was not weak at this time. Even the elite disciples below the Mahayana Sect could still look down on most immortal sects. The Buddhist Sect's future was promising. This was enough.
Lu Xiaotian was not worried about whether the Buddhist Sect would become his enemy. He was not afraid of the Buddhist Sect when they were at their peak, let alone when the Tiger-Taming Formation of the Five Ultimate Monks was gone.
Some thoughts flashed through Lu Xiaotian's mind. Then, he sped up and rushed in the direction of the Chaos Demon Region.
At the same time, Lu Xiaotian's main primordial spirit returned to the Green Fruit Enchantment. This time, Golden Ghost Lord did not keep his mouth shut in front of Lu Xiaotian and answered most of Lu Xiaotian's questions accordingly.
Just as he had guessed, the Phantom Golden Ghost Lord had also come for the passageway to the Immortal Realm. He was basically certain that the rainbow door was the passageway. However, the Eastern Puppet Emperor's Mausoleum was filled with danger, especially the Winged Man puppet that was guarding it, as well as the puppet that had been hiding itself all this time. With their tyrannical strength, even Lu Xiaotian himself would not have an easy time opening the passageway under the interference of these two guys.
However, knowing the specific location of the passageway for the time being was enough. Before rescuing Xiang Qingcheng, Dongfang Yi, and the others, Lu Xiaotian would not put too much thought into this matter.
The Phantom Golden Ghost Lord did not know much about Demon Monarch Jadeface. After all, at Demon Monarch Jadeface's level, how could he let an expert of the Ghost Clan know too much about his background? However, the Phantom Golden Ghost Lord came up with a desperate plan. He spread the news that Jadeface Scholar had been seriously injured by him and did not dare to show up. It was a simple piece of news. For a long time to come, Lu Xiaotian did not have to do it himself. The other devils in the Hegemonic Devil Continent would do it more viciously than Lu Xiaotian.
Since the news was spread, the Hegemonic Devil Continent was still relatively calm. However, there were many who secretly tested Jadeface Scholar's power. Later on, the testing became more and more intense. The forces under Jadeface Scholar's control were no longer enough to suppress the situation. Even the original subordinates of Jadeface Scholar, except for a few who were loyal to him, began to be tempted.
Jadeface Scholar's strength was outstanding. He had already touched the edge of the Dao realm. Lu Xiaotian's Dao realm was the ambition of mountains and rivers.
Jadeface Scholar, on the other hand, walked the path of an overlord and ruled the world. With Jadeface Scholar's strength, he was already one of the top existences in this world. In addition, his methods were domineering. In the past, there were many who were suppressed by Jadeface Scholar's torrential demonic flames for countless years. The dozens of devil heads that the jade-faced scholar had not grown out of nothing. They had been obtained by plundering the life force of countless devils. Apart from using a special sacrificial refining method, each devil head was no less than the gathering of hundreds of thousands of living beings.
In the past, Jadeface Scholar rarely left the Hegemonic Devil Continent. There were few who could match him. Now, it was rumored that Jadeface Scholar had been severely injured by Lu Xiaotian outside the Eastern Puppet Emperor's mausoleum and had fled for his life. If it was rumored that Jadeface Scholar was severely injured by another cultivator, the group of devil lords might not believe it. However, when they heard that the one who attacked was Lu Xiaotian, the devil lords did not doubt the fact that Jadeface Scholar could not win. After all, Lu Xiaotian had firmly held the title of the number one cultivator of the human race after the battle with the Buddhist Sect. Even in private, the Ghost, Devil, and Monster Clans all bowed their heads to Lu Xiaotian's name. It was just that on the surface, they were unwilling to place the human race above the other races. Lu Xiaotian's title of the number one cultivator was limited to the human race.
Under the secret probing of various forces, Jadeface Scholar did not show any signs of showing up. This caused the other hostile forces to become restless.
When Jadeface Scholar's sphere of influence was continuously eroded, not to mention the other hostile forces, even Jadeface Scholar's original subordinates were greedy.
The situation that Jadeface Scholar had painstakingly built in the past was constantly sliding into an uncontrollable abyss, but Jadeface Scholar still did not show up. This also confirmed the rumors in the outside world. Based on the demons' understanding of the jade-faced scholar, if he was safe and sound after being repeatedly offended like this, he would have already caused rivers of blood to flow in the Hegemon Devil Continent.
The news that Lu Xiaotian released only said that Jadeface Scholar had been severely injured and had fled. He did not mention Ghost Lord Jadeface Ghost Lord and Four-Eyed Golden Vast Bird. However, there was no lack of people with extraordinary means who knew that Jadeface Scholar had traveled with Ghost Lord Jadeface Ghost Lord and Four-Eyed Golden Vast Bird to the Eastern Puppet Emperor's mausoleum some time ago. Ghost Lord Jadeface Ghost Lord had also disappeared without a trace.
Therefore, people inquired about the news to Four-Eyed Golden Vast Bird. However, after Four-Eyed Golden Vast Bird returned to his territory, he completely withdrew his forces from the Chaotic Demon Region and went into seclusion. He refused all visitors and did not mention the battle with Lu Xiaotian that day.
At present, there was no news of Jadeface Scholar, which could only mean that Jadeface Scholar had been injured more severely than imagined by Lu Xiaotian. Moreover, the battle that day was probably far more complicated than the rumors.
Although Lu Xiaotian released the news that Jadeface Scholar had been severely injured by him, there was no news of Ghost Lord Jadeface Ghost Lord. Four-Eyed Golden Vast Bird had also become a frightened bird. Naturally, there was no lack of people who speculated about the specific situation of the battle that day. Although there were many versions, there was no lack of people who were the closest to the original. Some said that Ghost Lord Jadeface Scholar was like Jadeface Scholar, who had been seriously injured and hid to treat the injured. There were also some who said that Ghost Lord Jadeface Ghost Lord had already fallen.
