Primordial Era: The Holy Maiden Shiji, a woman of exceptional talent and beauty

At this time, a vague pattern emerged on the Pangu Banner, which was the power of the earth veins of the prehistoric world.

Tongtian Jiaozhu's expression instantly became solemn. He did not expect Yuanshi Tianzun to offer up the Pangu Banner so quickly.

"Yuanshi Tianzun, are you serious about this?" asked Tongtian Jiaozhu.

"Stop talking nonsense. You from Jie Sect are bullying my disciples from Chen Sect. If you don't hand over Shiji today, don't blame me for being ruthless." Yuanshi Tianzun shouted coldly.

"Ruthless? What can you do?" Tongtian Sect Master sneered, "You really want to save face but suffer in vain."

"Arrogant!" Yuanshi Tianzun was furious.

"Arrogant?" Tongtian Patriarch sneered, "Then let me show you what true arrogance is."

After saying that, he raised his right hand and grabbed into the air.

Yuanshi Tianzun stared at his movements closely, thinking that he was going to use the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

However, a huge handprint suddenly appeared in the void, and quickly enlarged, crushing towards Yuanshi Tianzun.

Yuanshi Tianzun felt the huge pressure and was shocked. He knew that Tongtian Jiaozhu's strength was no longer what it used to be, and he had reached the peak realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

"Tongtian, don't force me." Yuanshi Tianzun said gritting his teeth.

"So what if I force you? Do you want to kill me?" Tongtian Patriarch laughed loudly, and suddenly opened his left hand and grabbed towards the void.

The next moment, a giant axe appeared in the void, and it seemed as if an ancient ferocious beast was roaring in the axe, making a deafening roar.

This is the Heaven-Slaying Axe! The Heaven-Slaying Axe was originally obtained by Shiji in the system, but it was useless to him, so he gave it to Tongtian Sect Master.

The giant axe flashed in the air and instantly chopped towards Yuanshi Tianzun.

This attack almost shattered the void of Jinao Island, and the terrifying power was suffocating.

If it weren't for Master Tongtian's proper control and the arrangement of a protective barrier for Jin'ao Island in advance, Jin'ao Island would have been reduced to ashes by now.

Yuanshi Tianzun's face changed drastically, and he quickly controlled the Yuanshi Curse to meet the giant axe.

"Boom!" The two collided with each other, causing a loud earth-shaking noise, and the heaven and earth seemed to tremble.

This scene made everyone tremble with fear. The Yuanshi Curse was a saint-level spell, but it couldn't stop the attack of an innate spiritual treasure?

"Hahahaha... Yuanshi Tianzun, now you know how insignificant you are, right?" Tongtian Jiaozhu laughed loudly, and his laughter was so wantonly.

"Tongtian, I want your life!" Yuanshi Tianzun's face turned red, and he was completely enraged by Tongtian's ridicule.

At this time, Shiji and other Jiejiao brothers and sisters were standing on Jin'ao Island, watching the battle outside through the barrier, and couldn't help but admire it.

"It seems that Yuanshi Tianzun is no match for our master." Zhao Gongming said on the side.

Shiji smiled without saying anything. Almost all the saint-level treasures he obtained in the achievement system were given to Tongtian Sect Master.

Therefore, it is natural that Tongtian Jiaozhu can challenge Yuanshi Tianzun.

However, just when everyone thought victory was assured, the barrier of Jin'ao Island was suddenly broken.

A fat monk with a kind face walked in. He looked amiable, but Shiji and others frowned.

This monk was none other than Cundi, one of the two saints of Western religion.

"Amitabha, I hope you are well, benefactor Shiji." The Bodhisattva Cundi bowed slightly to Shiji with an enthusiastic look.

Shiji frowned, secretly wondering about the purpose of the visit by the Bodhisattva Cundi.

Seeing this, the Saint Zhunti continued to smile and said, "Donor Shiji, do you still remember me? We met once in the Tushita Palace outside the Nine Heavens. I wonder if Donor Shiji is willing to make friends with me now? If you can join our Western Religion, I guarantee that you will be successful and enjoy wealth and glory."

After these words were spoken, Shiji and others became even more confused.

The Bodhisattva Cundi is one of the two saints of the Western Religion and holds a high status; whereas Shiji is just a disciple of the Jie Religion, and there is a huge difference between their identities.

How did they know each other? And from what Zhunti Saint said, he seemed to want to win over Shiji to join the Western Religion?

Shiji looked at the Bodhisattva Cundi, with a thoughtful gleam in her eyes.

After a moment, he said, "I wonder what the Saint Zhunti means by this?"

The Saint Zhunti said with a smile: "Donor Shiji should be aware that in the next kalpa, our Western religion will be favored by the Taoist Patriarch and prosper. Donor Shiji, why don't you abandon the dark and join the light?"

"Haha, I killed Manjusri and Cihang who wanted to join your Western Religion. You want me to be your running dog? Are you sure?" Shiji said with a sneer.

Hearing this, the Saint Zhunti was not angry, but laughed even more strangely. He looked at Shiji with a cold look in his eyes...

"Whether you believe it or not, I have come here this time to sincerely invite you to join my Western Religion. If you nod, I will do my best to help you ascend the throne of the leader of Buddhism." The Bodhisattva Cundi spoke slowly, with unquestionable sincerity in his tone.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji sneered and said in a cold voice: "Humph, how could I, Shi Ji, be someone you can easily recruit?"

The Saint Zhunti shook his head gently, his eyes deep: "Donor Shiji, you may not know that the catastrophe is coming, and Buddhism must do something to cope with the coming storm."

As soon as he finished speaking, an abrupt voice suddenly rang out, breaking the silence around him: "Saint Zhunti, you didn't say that before! You said that as long as I join Buddhism, the position of leader will be mine!" The speaker was none other than Duobao Taoist, who had already secretly colluded with Zhunti and was ready to betray Jiejiao.

The sudden appearance of Duobao Daoist caused an uproar among the Jiejiao disciples. They were shocked by the betrayal of their eldest brother and even more angry at the cunning of Zhunti Saint. For a moment, they were so angry that they almost lost their minds.

Saint Zhunti smiled calmly, glanced at Taoist Duobao, and said with disdain: "Duobao, don't be so self-indulgent. In the calamity, you are simply unable to compete for the position of leader. We valued you before only because of your identity."

"Now, as one of the saints, Donor Shiji is far superior to you in terms of background, strength and magic weapons. The position of the leader will naturally be in his pocket." The words of Saint Zhunti were like a sharp knife that pierced deeply into Taoist Duobao's heart.

Taoist Duobao snorted angrily, feeling unwilling. Although he knew that there was a gap between him and Shiji, he could not help but get angry when he heard Zhunti belittle him like this.

Shiji looked at this scene and couldn't help but sneer: "Zhunti, you Western religions are really thick-skinned. I'm afraid that you came to Jin'ao Island for other purposes than to stay in the bar?"

Zhunti Saint admitted frankly, still smiling: "Donor Shiji is really smart. Yes, we came here this time just to recruit you. As long as you join the Western Church, we will do our best to train you. When you become the leader of the church, your status in Buddhism will be unmatched. Moreover, your cultivation speed will far exceed that of your former fellow disciples. We will teach you many Buddhist skills to help you reach a higher level." Upon hearing this, Shiji's smile became more sarcastic: "Zunti Saint, have you forgotten how you, the Western Church, plotted against us in the past?"

The expression of the Saint Zhunti changed slightly, and then returned to normal: "Donor Shiji, let the past be the past. We in the Western Church have reformed and will not make the same mistake again."

Shiji shook her head, her eyes cold: "I, Shiji, am not that easy to fool. Not long ago, you sent people to Jin'ao Island to play hard to get. Do you really think I, Shiji, am a fool? You just want us to consume our internal resources, and then you can reap the benefits."

The look on Zhunti Saint's face was uncertain, and it was obvious that Shiji had hit a sore spot. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Donor Shiji, you are a smart person. I will not beat around the bush. Today, if you are willing to join the Western Religion, I will take you back immediately. If you don't want to, don't blame me for taking action."

Upon hearing this, Shiji suddenly burst into laughter, full of ridicule and disdain.

At this moment, the silent Duobao Taoist suddenly exploded. He could not stand Shiji's arrogance and Zhunti's indifference, so he attacked Shiji directly: "Shiji, take it! I want everyone to know who is the real leader of Buddhism between you and me!"

Taoist Duobao held a Zen staff in his hand and slashed at the rock. The Buddhist beads on the Zen staff flickered, emitting a strong Buddhist energy.

Shiji sneered, showing no fear. He dodged Duobao Taoist's attack easily. At the same time, he taunted, "Brother Duobao, do you think your current Buddhist teachings can beat mine?"

Duobao Taoist's face turned pale. He knew the gap between him and Shiji, but he was unwilling to give in. He muttered something and kept hitting the air with the Zen stick in his hand, making a deafening sound.

As the Zen stick struck, the surrounding space seemed to be shaken, causing ripples to flow towards the stone cliffs.

However, a gleam of light flashed in Shiji's eyes, and a ray of purple lightning burst out instantly, destroying all these ripples.

Then, he swung his fist at Duobao Taoist.

The punch was thrown out, as if the world was created. Duobao Taoist was knocked back several steps by this punch, spitting blood. Seeing this scene, Zhunti Saint, Duobao Taoist and other disciples of the Chan Sect all changed their faces. They never expected that Shiji's strength would be so strong.

The Saint Zhunti gnashed his teeth and said, "Donor Shiji, I have no ill intentions. If you are willing to submit to the Western Religion, we will surely help you to cultivate smoothly. If you are stubborn and refuse to change, don't blame us for being rude."

Shiji sneered: "Western religion? I, Shiji, don't even bother to join."

The expression on the face of the Saint Zhunti became more and more embarrassed.

Taoist Duobao took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, but Shiji was prepared and easily avoided his attack.

At this moment, Shiji's face suddenly darkened. A huge black hole appeared between his palms, with thunder and lightning interweaving in the black hole, and a giant dragon circling and roaring in it. The swallowing power of the black hole was extremely terrifying. Taoist Duobao was horrified when he saw this, and hurriedly urged the five-colored lotus platform beside him to resist.

However, the power of this black hole was too strong. Although the five-colored lotus platform was extremely hard, it was like paper in front of the black hole.

It was swallowed up in an instant. The black hole continued to pounce on Duobao Taoist, and Duobao Taoist wanted to escape but it was too late.

"Boom!" The black hole hit Duobao Taoist hard, and he flew backwards like a leaf blown by the wind.

With a loud "bang", Taoist Duobao fell heavily to the ground, his body twitching continuously and blood gushing out of his mouth.

Although his body was strong, he was completely defenseless against Shiji's attack.

Shiji looked at Taoist Duobao coldly, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

What he hated most were those who betrayed their master and defected to the enemy, and Duobao Taoist was one of the best among them.

"Duobao, I'm going to take your life." Shiji's voice was as cold as ice. He didn't want to waste any more time.

Taoist Duobao's eyes were filled with fear and resentment: "Shiji, I am the last disciple recognized by the Western Religion! If you kill me, the Saint will never forgive you!"

"Humph! What do I, Shiji, have to fear?" Shiji sneered, "Your Western religion is just like this! What can a saint do?"

Upon hearing this, the face of the Saint Zhunti turned as gloomy as water.

He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Shiji again: "Stop talking nonsense! No one from your Western Sect can leave today!"

Taoist Duobao's expression turned extremely ugly.

He looked at Shiji, his eyes full of resentment and despair: "Shiji, the foundation of my Western Church is not as weak as before! I advise you to surrender obediently! Otherwise, you will suffer!"

Shiji snorted coldly. He was too lazy to say anything more. He had to solve the problem of Duobao Taoist as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, he took a step forward and went straight towards Taoist Duobao.

Seeing Shiji rushing towards him, Taoist Duobao quickly took a few steps back.

At the same time, he looked to the Zhunti Saint for help: "Saint, save me!"

However, the Saint Zhunti just stood aside coldly, his eyes full of disgust and hatred. He had no intention of helping.

Taoist Duobao was stunned when he saw this, and his heart was filled with despair.

At this moment, Shiji had already arrived in front of him.

As he swung his arms, two terrifying fist forces burst out from his fists and smashed towards Duobao Taoist with destructive force.

The sage Zhunti raised his eyebrows slightly, and a cold smile appeared on his face. He had already made up his mind. After Duobao Taoist was killed by Shiji, he would design a plan to let Jiejiao drive Shiji out. Then he would help him and give timely help.

"Ah..." Taoist Duobao let out a miserable cry, but was unable to avoid Shiji's fist at all.

The fist hit his chest hard, making his chest dented.

Taoist Duobao's body also exploded at this moment, turning into a blood mist and dissipating.

Taoist Duobao has fallen! This scene made Saint Zhunti frown slightly, with a hint of disappointment flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Although he had anticipated that Duobao Taoist was no match for Shiji, he did not expect him to be so vulnerable.

"Zhunti, you don't even think about surviving!"

At this moment, Shiji's target had already been locked on the Bodhisattva Cundi.

His figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of the Saint Zhunti. (End of this chapter)
