Others follow advice and imitate celebrities, but you start by pretending to be a god?

Just as they passed through the outer formation, Di Yong, the junior sister who had been anxiously waiting in Ling Mountain, hurriedly poked her head out.

This is a little girl who looks to be only ten years old, with two cute buns in her hair and bright, sparkling eyes.

She looked around to make sure no one was there, then hurriedly pulled the four of them away.

"Senior brothers and sisters, and the Celestial Hound, hurry up! This way!" Junior Sister Di Yong exclaimed excitedly. "You've finally arrived! I've found where Junior Sister is being held! While the other senior brothers and sisters are distracting everyone outside, let's quickly rescue Junior Sister! Then we'll tear down this Buddhist sect!"

Meanwhile, in the ancient foothills of Xiniu Hezhou, shrouded in eerie black mist, stood a tall and magnificent palace. Inside, numerous figures gathered—disciples of various sects—were discussing important matters around a massive map of Xiniu Hezhou.

"That's about enough. The entire Xiniu Hezhou is now in chaos." Li Chengqian stood at the forefront of the map and earnestly instructed, "Just keep it like this. Next, you can shrink it a little, but be careful not to get caught by the Buddhist sect. If there's even the slightest disturbance, leave immediately."

"It's not enough to just destroy the temple ourselves. We need to learn from Senior Brother Xiong and incite the many native humans of Xiniu Hezhou to demolish the temple..." Li Chengqian continued, "The next target..."

The many powerful demons listened attentively, nodding in agreement from time to time. They knew that this operation against Buddhism had entered a crucial stage, and every step had to be taken with extreme caution, leaving no room for carelessness.

"Senior Sister and the others have already infiltrated!" Just then, a disciple from the Daoist temple rushed excitedly into the meeting hall, clutching a golden feather. "Senior Sister and the others have entered the core area of ​​Mount Ling and are heading to rescue Junior Sister!"

"what?!"

"real?!"

"Hahaha! Great!"

Upon hearing this news, the disciples of the various sects were extremely excited! Before witnessing the earth surge, the Golden-Winged Roc King had already sent out a message informing the many disciples outside that they had successfully entered Mount Ling.

"In that case, we can begin in earnest!" A glint of excitement flashed in Li Chengqian's eyes. "This little bit of chaos isn't enough! We must let Buddhism know the consequences of offending our monastery!"

Upon hearing this, even the powerful demons couldn't help but feel excited! They knew that it would be dangerous for Queen Xiliang and her entourage to enter Mount Ling. Therefore, they needed to attract more attention from the Buddhist sects outside, creating more opportunities for Queen Xiliang and her group!

Not only Li Chengqian, but other disciples in various parts of the temple also received this news.

Their eyes gleamed, their excitement palpable.

"Hurry up!"

"Chaos is coming! Utter chaos is coming!"

"Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon! All monks must die!"

"Haha! Watch me, Monk Bear, go and demolish all the temples in Xiniu Hezhou!"

Upon receiving the news, the disciples of the Daoist temple in Xiniu Hezhou became even more arrogant and reckless.

They no longer held back, revealing their trump cards and desperately creating chaos in Xiniu Hezhou in order to attract all of Buddhism's attention.

Sure enough, the Lingshan Buddhist sect was truly enraged by the increasingly arrogant disciples of the monastery.

They once again dispatched multiple groups of Buddhas from Mount Ling, scattering them in all directions, vowing to suppress all chaos.

However, these disciples of the Daoist temple are different from ordinary demons.

They had cultivated at Lin Nan's Taoist temple, read a great many books, and mastered many supernatural abilities.

These supernatural powers came from other worlds. After entering the primordial land, they combined with this world and brought about new changes.

Not only has its power increased significantly, but it is also completely unfamiliar to Buddhist disciples.

Upon suddenly encountering so many supernatural powers they had never seen before, the Buddhist monks were unable to capture these disciples of the temple for the time being.

How is this going?

How could these ordinary demons possess such exquisite supernatural powers?
With such low cultivation level, why are you always able to escape from the Buddhist sect's inescapable net?

At first, things were fine, but when the many Buddhist monks discovered that not only could they not catch their opponents, but they were also being played around by these demons with strange supernatural powers, they were furious.

"what on earth is it?!"

"Why can't I find it?"

"There must be a mastermind behind this!"

"They're so cunning! Where did they learn so many ways to escape?"

Faced with this situation, the Buddhas on Mount Ling were furious and sent out wave after wave of Buddhist disciples.

However, it was still to no avail.

When facing the disciples of the monastery, these Buddhas couldn't even touch their shadows.

Before they could even get close, the demons had already made their escape.

Even when traps are set, they seem to know all along and don't fall for them at all.

This infuriated the Buddhist disciples.

"What exactly is going on with these demons?"

"Where did they come from?!"

"Could it be that a spy has infiltrated our Buddhist sect?"

On Mount Ling, many Buddhas were so angry they felt like their lungs were about to explode, and they vowed to suppress these disciples.

Meanwhile, in the remote foothills, the disciples of the Taoist temple continued to create chaos, helping the Queen of Xiliang and others to divert the attention of the Buddhist sect.

"Brother Heishan, the remaining Buddhist temples need to be dealt with as soon as possible. There's nothing important there."

"White Snake and Green Snake, you must be careful. There should be several Buddhas from Mount Ling who have gone to your area."

"Hundred-Eyed Demon Lord, Hundred-Eyed Senior Brother! If you have time now, please visit this Buddhist Kingdom."

“With your strength, Senior Brother should be able to easily eliminate this temple,” Li Chengqian said, pointing to a temple on the map in the palace.

Below, a tall, six-eyed young man stepped out laughing: "Haha! Don't worry, Junior Brother Chengqian, leave it to me!"

"Senior Sister White Bone, I'll leave this to you." Li Chengqian pointed to another place on the map.

"Okay!" A skeletal monster nodded gently.

"Senior Brother Huang Feng, please inform Senior Brother Fahai and Senior Brother Xiong to go and destroy this Buddhist temple together!"

"it is good!"

"."

One order after another was issued from the palace.

Nestled at the foot of the mountain, Li Chengqian oversaw the entire operation from the central command.

He single-handedly planned the overall strategy, confronted the Buddhist sect, and restrained their movements, all in an orderly and efficient manner.

Hundreds of plans were delivered to every disciple in the dojo.

His eyes were bright and his spirits were high.

Li Chengqian only had time to breathe a sigh of relief after the last plan was issued.

"call"

"I never thought that the military strategy books I read in the dojo would come in handy here."

"Originally intended to help the Tang Dynasty, but unexpectedly it has come in handy here in Xiniu Hezhou."

Li Chengqian pinched the bridge of his nose and gave a wry smile.

"Master is truly learned and talented. The Hongmeng Library is truly all-encompassing, covering everything in the world."

"I once thought I had learned at least one percent of my master's knowledge, but now it seems like a joke. I haven't even learned one ten-millionth of it!"

Sighing silently, Li Chengqian gazed into the distance, his eyes filled with longing.

"I wonder what Master is doing these days."

Did they smile because of our performance?

"The saplings that once stood in the dojo are gradually growing up."

In Xiniu Hezhou, the disciples of the Taoist temple are causing chaos and destruction, helping the Queen of Xiliang and others to attract the attention of the Buddhist sect, which infuriates the Buddhist sect, while the Xuanmen sect is overjoyed.

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Dojo, Lin Nan sat on the beach, sporting dark circles under his eyes and a forehead covered in black lines. [Heavenly Dojo, Disciple No. 25, beginning to show his prowess in the Three Realms, Reputation +1, Status +1.]

[Host, your strength has increased by 1111.]

[Reward: One 'Longevity Pill'.]

[Disciple No. 261 of the Heavenly Dojo, has begun to show his prowess in the Three Realms. Reputation +2, Status +2.]

[Host, your strength has increased by 2222.]

[Reward: One 'Nine-Flower Lotus of Blazing Fire'.]

[Disciple No. 105 of the Heavenly Dojo, has begun to show his prowess in the Three Realms. Reputation +1, Status +1.]

[Host, your strength has increased by 1111.]

[Reward: One 'Immaculate Spirit Body Pill'.]

These notification sounds started about ten days ago.

At first, Lin Nan was a little confused when she heard these mental prompts, but she was still very happy.

"Oh ho? My disciples have made something of themselves out there, they've even received rewards?"

But as Lin Nan listened, she began to feel a little annoyed.

Because these notification sounds kept echoing.

A young monk, seemingly a follower of Ksitigarbha, had just arrived. After Lin Nan gave him a good talking-to, he was sitting on the beach meditating.

Lin Nan was just about to relax and get a good night's sleep after helping others achieve enlightenment, when these notification sounds kept going off!
This made it impossible for Lin Nan to get a proper rest!

Especially in the last few days, these notification sounds have been bombarding his mind almost frantically!
They bombed every ten minutes or so!
Lin Nan sat cross-legged on the beach, resting his head on his hand. After listening to the notification sounds for several days in a row, he finally couldn't take it anymore!

"What the hell is this?"

"These little brats."

"What exactly did you do outside?"

"Are you trying to get some sleep?!"

"Can't you just do one big thing at a time and give me a notification once? Can't you stop giving me +1 every time?" In Xiniu Hezhou, Li Chengqian had no idea that Lin Nan was exasperated by their notification sounds.

He's here, strategizing and full of confidence.

"How can a mere Buddhist disciple be compared to the disciples of my monastery?"

"Indeed, the number of disciples in my temple is far less than that of your Buddhist sect, but don't forget, how long has my temple been established? Your Buddhist sect, on the other hand, has accumulated tens of thousands of years of experience."

"You should wait patiently for a hundred or a thousand years, and then see the result!"

Thanks to the vast collection of books they had read in the Hongmeng Library, Li Chengqian's disciples were always able to skillfully defuse crises when surrounded by enemies, thanks to the exquisite sword energy he had taught them.

This infuriated many Buddhist monks.

Every time he was about to succeed, he always fell short at the last minute, failing time and time again!
It's true that a small mistake can lead to a huge error!
At this time, the journey to the West was already fraught with chaos, and the fortunes of Buddhism were declining instead of rising, urgently requiring a solution.

Now, troubles are frequently occurring near Xiniu Hezhou, making the already overwhelmed Buddhist monks even more anxious and uneasy.

At this critical juncture, the Heavenly Court was overjoyed.

While closely monitoring the movements of the disciples in the Buddhist temple, trying to find out who was behind it all, they also sent people to Mount Ling to mock Buddhism.

"Fellow Buddhists of Lingshan."

"It's been more than ten days since we last met. I hope you've been well. The Heavenly Peach Banquet is about to begin."

"This grand event aims to celebrate the prosperity of heaven and earth and the peace of the three realms."

"We hope that fellow Buddhists will grace us with their presence and join us in this grand event."

Yang Jian, dressed in a moon-white robe, stood proudly atop Mount Ling, his robes fluttering, a smile on his face, and spoke slowly.

After he finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly remember something, slapped his forehead, and added with a smile.

"Oh, right, I almost forgot, you must all be too busy to attend the Peach Banquet right now."

"It's alright. If the Buddhist disciples want to eat peaches, I can send them over."

"After all, the peaches of immortality from my Heavenly Court are sacred items for healing."

Upon hearing this, the Buddhist disciples all turned ashen-faced and were filled with uncontrollable rage.

"Amitabha!!"

In an instant, Buddhist scriptures surged forth like a tidal wave!

Endless light soared into the sky, and the golden-red Buddhist principles surged like a mighty river, transforming into a gigantic palm that pressed down on Yang Jian with earth-shattering power!

However, Yang Jian only retreated slightly before turning around and disappearing into the South Heavenly Gate, leaving behind only a string of hearty laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Laughter echoed over the Great Thunder Temple.

The entire Ling Mountain fell into a deathly silence.

Anger blazed in the eyes of all the Buddhist disciples.

'Clang~'

After an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly appeared above the Great Thunderclap Temple.

The moment he appeared, the world seemed to soften.

The sound of Buddhist chants filled the air, and a sense of Zen permeated the atmosphere.

A pale golden light enveloped the surroundings, like melting ice and snow, and all the originally angry Buddhist disciples gradually became peaceful.

They took a deep breath, clasped their hands together, turned their heads to look in the direction of the Great Thunder Temple, and bowed deeply.

"Amitabha."

"Greetings, Buddha."

Buddhist chants and Zen hymns filled the air, and shimmering light swirled in all directions.

Countless Buddhist texts flow between heaven and earth.

The Buddha sat serenely atop Mount Sumeru, his tone calm and peaceful.

Where is Guanyin?

Guanyin Bodhisattva stepped forward, put her hands together in prayer, and said respectfully, "Amitabha, Guanyin is here."

"Let's send the Eighteen Arhats to help."

Guanyin Bodhisattva was taken aback, and looked up to ask, "Buddha, it's just some demons causing trouble. The intervention of many Buddhas is more than enough."

"The Eighteen Arhats are the symbol of Mount Ling, the Buddhist holy mountain. Since the mountain was built, there has never been a precedent for them to take action."

What about this time?

Not only Guanyin Bodhisattva, but other Buddhas were also surprised.

Although the Eighteen Arhats are not the most powerful in Buddhism, they are definitely the most famous group of figures in Buddhism.

Their mission was to guard the Great Thunder Temple year-round and they rarely left Mount Ling.

"Xiniu Hezhou was originally a Buddhist land," the Buddha Tathagata calmly replied. "Heaven has ordained the prosperity of Buddhism; how can we sacrifice the greater good for the sake of the lesser?"

"The decline of the Xuanmen sect is the will of Heaven; how can we allow ourselves to become a laughing stock? The journey to the West is now the primary goal of our Buddhist sect."

"Dispatch the eighteen Arhats to drive away the demons."

"To ensure the journey to the West is unimpeded." (End of Chapter)
