Looking at Gu Pu, Han Feiyu narrowed his eyes.
Gu Pu's swordsmanship had indeed improved.
If not for the fact that Gu Pu's old injuries had not healed, he would have already reached a higher level.
Han Feiyu's heart sank slightly.
The memories of being suppressed by the other party in the Shushan Sect resurfaced in his mind.
Han Feiyu controlled his mind and removed all distracting thoughts. His heart calmed down, leaving only the opponents in front of him and their respective swords.
Streaks of sword Qi swept across the world, forming another move of Shu Mountain's three major sword moves.
Sword Seeks the Universe!
The soaring sword Qi seemed to be able to split heaven and earth as it targeted Gu Pu in front of him.
Gu Pu's eyes seemed to be filled with regret.
Then, he used the exact same Sword Seeks the Universe to meet Han Feiyu's sword.
The two top experts of Shu Mountain were going to fight it out today.
Apart from Han Feiyu, the others suddenly realized that there were strong enemies blocking their way.
The abbot of Lingguang Temple, Reverend Zhi Deng, and the abbot of Zhongyue Temple, Reverend Kong Yuan, looked at the people blocking their way. They both put their palms together and chanted, "My Buddha is merciful. My Senior Martial Brother is with Reverend Cheng Yang.
The people blocking their way were a monk and a Daoist.
The monk was Abbot Xin He of the Bodhi Temple, another of the three major Buddhist sacred grounds of the Central Plains.
The Daoist was Immortal Cheng Yang of the Righteous Sect in the Central Plains' Taoist sacred ground, Immortal Cheng Yang.
Usually, Abbot Xin He and Immortal Cheng Yang only nodded at each other and did not have a deep relationship.
But today, they stood side by side in front of Abbot Kong Yuan and Abbot Zhi Deng.
"One should repay the kindness of others."
Immortal Cheng Yang said indifferently, "Although I did not know about Chang 'an's background before that, I have some understanding of Chang' an. The Twelve Kings of Hell may have killed many people in the past, but now that they have turned over a new leaf and are kind to the common people, it is a blessing for the common people. I have no qualms about helping them."
Abbot Zhi Deng of the Lingguang Temple glanced at him.
The Righteous Sect had no qualms about helping the Twelve Kings of Hell.
In the past, they had always kept a low profile, and they had always minded their own business with the twelve Yama-Kings. There had never been any conflicts between them, so it was naturally easier for them to negotiate with them now.
If it had to be said that the Twelve Kings of Hell had brought trouble to the Righteous Faction, it was that they had breached the Pure Yang Palace.
Losing the check and balance of the Pure Yang Palace, the Tai Qing Palace no longer kept a low profile and began to take over the world's dao sects. Gradually, it became a dominant force, and the righteous faction also became their first target to suppress.
Since then, the Righteous Faction was no longer peaceful. Previously, the Supreme Purity Palace's Sect Master, Peng Ziling, had blocked their mountain gate.
However, Daoist Cheng Yang obviously wouldn't blame the Twelve Yama Kings for this.
Abbot Kong Yuan and Abbot Zhi Deng were completely different.
The Thunderclap Temple had been breached by the Twelve Yama Kings.
The former's master had fallen in the battle of Leiyin Temple.
The latter's mentor had perished in the battle against the Twelve Kings of Hell during the Immortals Incident.
"Senior apprentice-brother Xin He, our three temples are one family. If we trace back to our roots, you are also from the Thunder Temple."
Abbot Kong Yuan didn't look at Daoist Cheng Yang at all. He only looked at Abbot Xin He of the Bodhi Temple.
Abbot Xin He's expression was calm. "The Buddha saves all living beings from the sea of bitterness. Now that there is someone who treats the common people well, we should help.
The destruction of the Thunder Temple in the past was indeed the work of the Twelve Yama Kings. However, only by letting go of hatred and obsession can one save others and oneself.
I have no intention of being enemies with you two senior apprentice-brothers. I just hope that you two can stay out of this and not participate in the battle of the Nine Peaks Academy. "
Slowly, Abbot Kong Yuan said, "It's easy to let go of hatred, but it's difficult to stop the evil and heretical path from harming living beings and creating new hatred. It seems that the Chang 'an is fake and has blinded senior apprentice-brother Xin He's eyes, and …"
He looked at the other. "Senior apprentice-brother Kong Ru's visit has blinded senior apprentice-brother's ears!"
As he spoke, he glanced around. "Why don't I see senior apprentice-brother Kong Ru?"
"Senior apprentice-brother Kong Ru has other places to go. I came with Daoist Cheng Yang, hoping to persuade the two of you to stop."
Abbot Xin He said, "As for what Chang 'an is like, time will give us an answer."
Abbot Kong Yuan shook his head. "Forgive me for not being able to comply."
After saying that, he put his palms together. Then, a boundless Buddhist light radiated from his body and enveloped the surroundings, forming a Dharmakaya pure land with him as the center.
Wherever the pure land went, Daoist Cheng Yang, Xin He, and the abbot felt as if there was an invisible force suppressing everything.
Language, sight, hearing, thinking, action …
All existence, including everything, seemed to be shackled and difficult to stretch.
Abbot Xin He sighed. "Senior apprentice-brothers, sorry to offend you."
Similarly, Buddhist light surged on his body and formed a Dharmakaya pure land that belonged only to him.
As soon as Xin He's Dharmakaya appeared, the negative effects of Abbot Kong Yuan's Dharmakaya pure land immediately disappeared.
The two of them were both at the thirteenth realm of Buddhist cultivation, also known as the fourth realm of Buddhist Body, Li Gou.
When the precepts are complete, the three karmas are pure, and one is far away from the filth of violating the precepts, the pure land can be called the Land of Li Gou.
Living in this pure land, the Dharmakaya master is far away from all the filth and troubles, but at the same time, he can bless the opponent with precepts.
When ordinary people fall into the pure land of a Li Gou realm Dharmakaya master, they would be restrained everywhere, unable to use their cultivation strength.
However, Xin He and Abbot Kong Yuan were both Dharmakaya masters at the fourth realm of Buddhist Body, so the effects of each other's pure land were mutually neutralized.
The two's cultivation strength were basically on par, so no one could suppress the other.
However, on the other side, Spiritual Light Temple's Abbot Zhi Deng also released his Li Gou realm pure land and joined forces with Abbot Kong Yuan to suppress the enemy.
Seeing that they were two against one, causing Xin He and the abbot to gradually fall into a disadvantage, Daoist Cheng Yang waved the horsetail whisk in his hand.
Suddenly, the sunlight in the sky seemed to darken.
It was as if all the sunlight in the world was extracted by someone and then condensed into thousands of talismans in the air.
As these talismans rotated, it was as if there were thousands of soldiers and horses. Then, the talismans suddenly shone brightly.
Each talisman was like a sun descending from the sky, close to the ground.
Thousands of "suns" shone together, like a storm formed by sunlight.
The storm fell on the pure land of the two Buddhist masters, without any fierce collision.
However, this radiance was like rain, continuously soaking the pure land.
Although it was radiance, it caused the pure land of the two Buddhist masters to no longer be clean and dusty.
The pure land of the two Li Gou realm was no longer as miraculous as before.
On the contrary, Xin He and the abbot who were fighting one against two, the Buddhist light of the pure land of Dharmakaya started to become stronger again.
Abbot Kong Yuan put his palms together and chanted Buddhist mantras. Then, his palms formed two seals.
Immovable Fundamental Seal.
Great Vajra Wheel Seal.
Then, the Meru Mountain formed by the Buddhist light enveloped him and Spiritual Light Temple's Abbot Zhi Deng.
It was the Immovable Vajra Meru Mountain Realm.
Abbot Zhi Deng formed the Lion Seal and Solar Karma at the same time.
Then, it was the Amitabha Palm that combined martial arts and endless light and power.
At this moment, the two Buddhist monks, one attacking and one defending, cooperated with great tacit understanding.
Abbot Kong Yuan used the Immovable Vajra Meru Mountain Realm to protect him and Abbot Zhi Deng.
On the other hand, Abbot Zhi Deng did not care about his own safety at all, only using his full strength to attack Zhenren Cheng Yang, Xin He and the abbot.
When a Buddhist master of this realm attacked with full strength, Zhenren Cheng Yang, Xin He and the abbot felt threatened, almost suffocating them.
Zhenren Cheng Yang could not help but sigh in his heart, they were indeed from the same family a few decades ago.
Thunder Sound Temple had only been destroyed for a few decades, but Kong Yuan and Zhi Deng were already the abbot of the two Buddhist holy lands. However, back then, they studied together in Thunder Sound Temple, and were true brothers.
Of course, this included Xin He and the abbot.
Xin He and the abbot were lamenting in their hearts facing Kong Yuan and Zhi Deng's combined attack.
However, although they were lamenting, their actions did not slow down at all.
Similar to Kong Yuan and Zhi Deng, Xin He and Fang Zheng formed a seal with each hand.
The Wisdom Fist Seal and Outer Binding Seal, which were passed down by Thunder Sound Temple in the past and now in the hands of Bodhi Temple, appeared at the same time and combined.
On the pure land of Xin and the abbot, a tall Bodhi tree suddenly grew.
After the Bodhi tree appeared, it immediately blocked Abbot Zhi Deng's Amitabha Palm.
Zhi Deng's Amitabha Palm contained boundless light and power, but Xin He and the abbot also had the Bodhi Dharma World, which contained this boundless light and power.
Zhenren Cheng Yang looked at the three Buddhist experts fighting and could not help but sigh in admiration.
As he praised, he waved his horsetail whisk again.
Therefore, the 'golden rainwater' that was soaking the opponent's pure land suddenly changed, turning into talisman after talisman that was stuck on the opponent's pure land.
With the strength of a Buddhist thirteenth realm expert, under the suppression of the pure land, Daoist talisman would not be effective.
Initially, Zhenren Cheng Yang was a thirteenth realm expert like them.
The fourth realm of the Daoist primordial spirit was known as the Unity God.
Using the primordial spirit to fuse with the heavens and earth.
Once Zhenren Cheng Yang's talisman was formed, countless Thunder exploded on Abbot Kong Yuan and Abbot Zhi Deng's pure land.
Following that, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and countless lightning snakes shuttled through the clouds.
Then, all of them gathered here, and struck down consecutively.
The two Buddhist experts seemed to be completely trapped in the sea of Thunder, and were continuously attacked by the Thunder.
Fortunately, Abbot Kong Yuan's Unmovable Vajra Meru Mountain World was indeed extraordinary.
Under his dedicated defense, Zhenren Cheng Yang's Tian Fu Xuan Du Lightning Talisman could not break through it.
However, Abbot Zhi Deng's Amitabha Palm could not do anything to Xin He's Bodhi Dharma World.
For a moment, both sides were in a situation where one attacked and one defended, and neither could do anything to the other.
Then, the three Buddhas and the four experts fought in pairs, and the Middle Earth switched opponents.
However, the final result was a stalemate.
Abbot Kong Yuan and Abbot Zhi Deng wanted to force their way out of the encirclement, but Zhenren Cheng Yang, Xin He and the abbot were constantly on guard.
Neither side could do anything to the other.
"Benefactor Kong of the Sacred Evolving Manor and Sect Master Peng of the Tai Qing Palace will take action this time. It is futile for you to stop us," Abbot Kong Yuan said.
"We are only doing what is within our power," Zhenren Cheng Yang said.
Kong Yuan, Zhi Deng, and even Shen Tianxian of the Nine Peaks Academy had high hopes for Peng Ziling of the Tai Qing Palace and Kong Shengzhen of the Sacred Evolving Manor.
Unfortunately, someone appeared in front of Peng Ziling of the Tai Qing Palace, who was on his way to the Nine Peaks Academy.
