Even though the various Buddhas had their own pure lands, they were still considered as one family and were of the same breath and branch.
Chang 'an City was so powerful that even Ananda Bodhisattva felt pressured.
Saint Lu was negotiating peace with Chang 'an City and was no longer an enemy of Chang' an. Taiyi Sect's Patriarch Hong Qing was not here, so Ananda Bodhisattva could not help but feel lonely.
Considering the importance of Manjushri Sarira and Chang 'an's rapid expansion, Ananda Bodhisattva finally decided to seek help from his fellow Buddhists outside the Eastern Firmament.
If a seventeenth-realm Buddha could come to help, their strength would increase greatly.
"Our sect has also sent someone out to find a good friend. I hope he can return to the Eastern Firmament as soon as possible," Zhenren Xue said.
Although it took time for top masters to travel the void, it was not difficult. Taiyi Sect's higher-ups often went out to travel and made friends with other sects in the Eastern Firmament or other star regions.
Taiyi Sect was not only facing Chang 'an City, but also the Great Song Dynasty.
When the Four Symbols Formation of Creation was lost, Taiyi Sect's higher-ups had already sent people to the Eastern Firmament to find help while sealing the news.
Unfortunately, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming came one step earlier and kicked down Taiyi Sect's mountain gate.
Now that they were facing two powerful enemies, the Great Song Dynasty and Chang 'an City, they naturally needed help.
While Buddhists were contacting reinforcements, Taiyi Sect was not idle either.
Ananda Bodhisattva looked at Zhenren Xue and said, "To be honest, I also sent disciples to the Great Song Dynasty, Doushi Academy, and the ancestral land of the Kui Cow Tribe."
Zhenren Xue did not answer immediately, but he nodded slightly.
Without a doubt, Ananda Bodhisattva wanted to unite all the masters in the Eastern Firmament to fight Chang 'an together.
The current strength that Chang 'an City had shown was undoubtedly enough to qualify for this.
Immortal Xiang Yuan was captured and forced to send fake news. Arhat Ding Lin and Arhat Kongshan did not send back any news, which meant that they would end up like Immortal Xiang Yuan, or even worse.
The three of them went to see Daoist Shangqing. In the worst case, even Daoist Shangqing was killed.
The lineup formed by these four experts was already extremely powerful, but they were still completely annihilated.
Coupled with the fact that Immortal Xiangyuan was forced to pass on fake news, Bodhisattva Ananda's speculation was most likely correct.
His opponent wasn't just a seventeenth-level cultivator. Even among the seventeenth-level cultivators, he might be a leading figure.
Or perhaps, the other party had mastered a formation that was even more powerful than the Four Symbols Creation Formation and Four Symbols Immortal Slaying Formation.
Judging from the fact that they didn't directly attack the Ananda Pure Land, the Doushi Academy, or the Taiyi School, it could be seen that they didn't underestimate their opponents. At the same time, they didn't need to scare themselves.
However, this was an extremely powerful enemy. The current strength of the Taiyi Sect and the Ananda Pure Land was definitely not enough to fight against him.
While they were searching for reinforcements outside the Eastern Heaven, they naturally wouldn't neglect the Eastern Heaven itself.
The reason why he contacted the One-legged Ox Tribe was that he hoped that their tribe leader, who was at the peak of the Demon Sage, could unite with the Buddhist and Taoist sects to fight against Chang 'an.
He contacted the Doushi Academy in hopes that Saint Lu would change his mind.
However, that didn't mean that he hoped that the other party would let the Blood Unicorn Demon Sovereign go.
They also didn't plan to ally with the Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable.
Firstly, it would mean that they would become mortal enemies with Saint Lu and force the Doushi Academy into the arms of Chang 'an.
Secondly, Ananda Bodhisattva and Zhenren Xue couldn't stand what the Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable did.
The Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable couldn't establish a sect in the Eastern Heaven because of the pressure from many forces. However, Saint Lu was especially determined.
Besides the Blood Unicorn Demon Venerable, the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming, the number one martial arts master in the Eastern Heaven, was also a potential target.
Although the Taiyi Sect and the Great Song Dynasty had a grudge, Ananda Bodhisattva had to try his best to win over the Song Emperor since Dao Ancestor Hong Qing wasn't here.
He made it clear to Zhenren Xue today that he didn't want to betray the Taiyi Sect to the Great Song Dynasty.
However, it was also a reminder to Zhenren Xue that the Taiyi Sect had to bow down to the Great Song Dynasty for the time being and make some concessions.
It should be said that Zhenren Xue and the other higher-ups of the Taiyi Sect had a premonition about this.
Now that they were faced with a choice, the Taiyi Sect had basically reached a consensus. As long as the Great Song Dynasty didn't go too far, they would pinch their noses and accept it.
Old and new grudges, everything would wait until the sect's founder, Dao Ancestor Hong Qing, returned to the Eastern Heaven.
Now, not only were they facing a strong enemy, the City of Chang 'an, but they also had to be careful. The City of Chang' an had allied with the Great Song Dynasty.
They didn't fight for the Great Song Dynasty, but it didn't mean that the City of Chang 'an wouldn't fight for it.
To a certain extent, this possibility was still very high.
Their only hope was the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming. He was used to being arrogant and the Great Song Dynasty had been working hard to expand.
There was also a problem between them and the City of Chang 'an. Because of the Song Emperor Zhao Kuangming's personality, the conflict might be very sharp.
The Song Emperor had already broken through the Taiyi Sect's mountain gate. The Song Emperor had the upper hand in the previous grudge. Now, there was a possibility that he would let the Taiyi Sect go temporarily and deal with the City of Chang 'an first.
Even so, the Great Song Dynasty wouldn't let the Taiyi Sect go so easily. It was expected that they would give the Taiyi Sect another blow.
As the price, the Taiyi Sect had to suffer some grievances for the time being.
At such a critical moment, it was really like the old saying that a little impatience would spoil a great plan.
"Thank you, Bodhisattva, for running around to mediate." Immortal Xue bowed sincerely to Bodhisattva Ananda.
Bodhisattva Ananda shook his head. "It's Immortal Xue and the Taoists of the Taiyi Sect who have worked hard."
"You flatter me," Immortal Xue said.
Bodhisattva Ananda said, "Then I'll go first. If the City of Chang 'an attacks, you can give up this land. But please take care of my disciples."
Immortal Xue said, "Of course."
Then, Bodhisattva Ananda bid farewell to Immortal Xue and left the Ananda Pure Land.
Immortal Xue watched him leave with a solemn expression. He didn't relax at all.
…
While the Buddhists and Taoists were shocked, other places in the Eastern Cang Heaven were also shocked.
The Great Song Dynasty, which was targeted by Bodhisattva Ananda and Immortal Xue, was not calm at the moment.
The imperial capital of the dynasty was located in a world called the Hongyang Realm.
The world was huge and vast. It was densely populated with countless cities. It was thriving and prosperous.
Here, there was no secular dynasty in the ordinary sense.
Hundreds of millions of people, including countless cultivation holy lands and sects, worshipped a supreme monarch as the only master of this world, this starry sky, and the vast universe.
The Song Emperor, Zhao Kuangming.
His title was also different from the titles of the Martial Emperors of other dynasties in other worlds.
This was the Human Emperor.
