Hearing Chen Luoyang's order, the people of the Devil Religion said, "We will follow the Hierarch's order."
Jingang laughed, "They are too unlucky to have met the Hierarch returning to the main altar. They are doomed to not return."
Chen Luoyang's expression was calm.
But he did not let his guard down.
Today, the top four forces in the Divine Land were undoubtedly the Devil Religion, the Sword Pavilion, the Xia Dynasty, and the Mutated Race.
But further down the list, the two holy lands of Taoism and Buddhism were the Taiyi Daoist Sect and the Qing Liang Temple.
Both had many masters.
In recent years, they had lost the masters of Emperor Wu, and their power seemed to have begun to be inferior to the Wang family of Donghai, where the Sword Emperor was born.
But if the Wang family's master was not included, the Wang family could not compete with the Taoism and Buddhism at all.
After the death of Qingyun Zi, the previous leader of the Taiyi Daoist Sect, the master of Emperor Wu's realm, the Taiyi Daoist Sect still had many talents, but they lacked Emperor Wu.
If someone from the Taoism ascended to the realm of Emperor Wu, the Taiyi Daoist Sect would immediately regain its former glory.
The reason why there were three Buddhist temples in the Divine Land and only one Taoism was because the Taiyi Daoist Sect was too powerful in the past few years. To seek balance, Emperor Xia respected Buddhism and suppressed Taoism to a certain extent.
But after the death of Qingyun Zi four years ago, the Taoism's power weakened a little, and the Xia Dynasty began to readjust the balance between the two sides. In recent years, there were signs of respecting Taoism and suppressing Buddhism.
And the Qing Liang Temple, which was far away from the Taiyi Daoist Sect, was the head of the three holy lands of Buddhism. Its power was far superior to the Hua Yan Temple in Shuzhou and the Dizang Monastery in Huizhou.
Like the Taiyi Daoist Sect, the Qing Liang Temple was also full of masters.
Not to mention others, there were people like Elder Mingjing and Demon Monk Mingfa who had betrayed the sect.
The current leader of the Taiyi Daoist Sect and the current abbot of the Qing Liang Temple were both at the twelfth realm of Martial Arts. They were at the peak of King Wu's realm and were only one step away from Emperor Wu.
In Chen Luoyang's current state, it would not be easy to deal with them.
The difference between King Wu and King Wu could be huge.
The tenth level, the Mind Condensation Realm, King Wu and the twelfth level, the Nourishing Realm, King Wu were two completely different concepts.
Emperor Wu's roar could kill the tenth realm King Wu.
But the realm twelve King Wu, while not a match for Emperor Wu, was not so weak that he could not withstand a single blow.
Against such an opponent, it would be very difficult for Chen Luoyang to kill a child with one punch like before.
And right now, he only had three chances to unleash Emperor Wu's level of battle prowess.
Chen Luoyang had to think carefully about how to use it to subdue the enemy and achieve victory without exposing his flaws.
What would he do if he had to face such an opponent consecutively?
What if he had to face more than one such opponent at the same time?
Chen Luoyang pondered.
At this time, he suddenly heard someone ask, "May I ask Elder Mingjing, how is Sickly Maha?"
The person who spoke had a head of red hair and eyebrows like snow.
It was the former red-haired Human Devil He Tianxiang, now a servant of the Devil religion's Hierarch, Red-Crowned Crane Elder Shou.
Usually, he did not speak in front of others, but at this time, his expression and tone were rare and serious.
Elder Mingjing's expression was equally serious. "Senior Apprentice Brother Mingjue has been injured for many years, and the roots of his illness are hard to remove. He has been recuperating in seclusion in recent years."
Sickly Maha?
Mingjue?
Who was this?
Chen Luoyang inwardly rolled his eyes.
Fortunately, there was someone as ignorant as he was, and asked the question for him.
"Oh, the name 'Sickly Maha' sounds familiar, but I can't remember where …" Jingang said, rubbing his hands.
Xiao Yuntian was shrouded in the flowing wind, his voice slightly erratic. "Elder Mingjue is of the same generation as the Sword Pavilion Master and our sect's Great Elder, but ever since he was injured by the Outsiders' master blade, he has not left Qing Liang Temple for nearly twenty years."
Jingang suddenly understood. "That's right, I remember now. Qing Liang Temple's previous abbot, I thought he was seriously injured and couldn't be treated."
Elder Mingjing did not feel offended. "Senior Apprentice Brother Mingjue's injuries are serious and hard to recover, but there is no danger to his life."
Chen Luoyang's expression was indifferent.
In fact, he was quietly pricking up his ears and listening carefully.
He gradually had an idea in his heart.
This Elder Mingjue should not be young anymore.
Among the experts that were still alive, he should be of the same generation as the Sword Pavilion Master, the Devil religion's Great Elder, and the Pill Empress.
Then the Outsiders' master, the Black Emperor, Emperor Xia, and the Sword Emperor could barely be considered of the same generation.
Chen Luoyang madly cursed in his heart.
What about the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors?
Why was there such a person hidden in Qing Liang Temple?
"What I am more concerned about is, how much strength does this Qing Liang Temple's number one expert, Buddhist Emperor Wu, have left?" Zhang Tianheng asked.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Mingjue can no longer return to the realm of Emperor Wu. He can only maintain the level of the twelfth realm. At the same time, he can't fight for a long time." Elder Mingjing answered. "However, even so, he is still the number one expert of Qing Liang Temple, and also the number one expert of Buddhism in China."
Chen Luoyang pondered in his heart. If Elder Mingjue fell to the twelfth realm, it would indeed be a different concept.
But for the current him, he still needed to be vigilant.
Moreover, who knew if the other party also had a secret technique similar to the All or Nothing Technique?
"I am not sure if Senior Apprentice Brother Mingjue went south this time." Elder Mingjing shook his head.
"There isn't much difference." Chen Luoyang said lightly, "Continue to search for the other party's tracks."
The people of Devil Religion immediately responded in unison.
After everyone retreated, Chen Luoyang took a deep breath and once again focused on figuring out his own martial arts cultivation.
The Six Dragons Emperor Carriage moved toward the Ancient God Peak.
As it approached the main altar, the activity of Devil Religion believers increased.
When they encountered the Hierarch's carriage, the believers naturally rejoiced and their morale was greatly boosted.
Those believers with status and weight had to go forward to greet him.
Chen Luoyang looked at the youth in front of him and asked lightly, "What task have you taken up now?"
This serious-looking youth, with a scar on his face that seemed to be carved, knelt and answered, "Reporting to the Hierarch, I came out with you."
"Hmm?" Chen Luoyang's eyes narrowed slightly.
Although he did not know him before, when he passed on the message just now, the youth had already introduced himself.
Li Heishui.
The Ninth Realm of Martial Arts, the Emptiness Realm, Wu Zong.
The Devil Religion's Basaltic Temple was the second of the Seven Constellations of Black Tortoise, also known as the Second Black Tortoise.
The Hierarch that he mentioned was naturally the Basaltic Temple's Hierarch.
However, as far as Chen Luoyang knew, among the four temples of Devil Religion, the Basaltic Temple was mainly responsible for daily affairs, economic revenue, and some internal security work.
The Basaltic Temple's Hierarch was sometimes jokingly called the "Devil Religion's God of Wealth".
Now that the situation was tense and dangerous, why did this fellow not stay at the Ancient God Peak?
As if feeling the Hierarch's doubt, Li Heishui hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Please forgive us, Hierarch. The Hierarch and I did not leave our post without permission. We left the Ancient God Peak because of the enemy of the Devil Religion."
Chen Luoyang looked at him in Silence and did not speak.
The Second Black Tortoise, Li Heishui said softly, "Reporting to the Hierarch, the First Brother has gone somewhere. The Hierarch and I have come out to look for him."
