Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 264: The Yellow Bird Behind, Entering the Western Religion

Zhao Gongming turned into golden light and flew away. Guangchengzi and Maitreya stood in the void, their breath not yet calmed down. They looked at each other and their eyes fell on Shen Gongbao who was still standing there.

Shen Gongbao was confused at this time. He didn't know Guangchengzi and Maitreya, but he knew that Zhao Gongming was the direct disciple of the Shangqing Saint, and Zhao Gongming had defeated the two of them before.

It was not until one of them took out the banner surrounded by chaotic energy that Zhao Gongming was forced to retreat.

A banner has such terrifying power, could it be the Pangu Banner, one of the three legendary treasures of creation?

The more Shen Gongbao thought about it, the more he felt that the banner was the Pangu Banner. One of the two people in front of him must be a disciple of the Chan Sect. What about the other one?

While Shen Gongbao was daydreaming, the atmosphere between Guangchengzi and Maitreya had become tense.

About nine years ago, the disciples of the Chan sect who went down the mountain to look for the Flying Bear received a piece of news that Zhao Gongming of the Jie sect had found the son of destiny for the Conferred God Tribulation in Chaoge and brought him with him.

This news soon reached Guangchengzi's ears. After repeated investigations, Guangchengzi confirmed that the news was true.

So Guangchengzi sent people to keep an eye on Chaoge City, and report to him immediately if Zhao Gongming was about to leave.

The situation is similar in Western religions.

So when Zhao Gongming took Shen Gongbao out of the city, Guangchengzi and Maitreya met them first.

After some discussion, the two decided to join forces to take down Zhao Gongming first, and then discuss the distribution of the child of destiny. This led to the situation where the two of them joined forces to fight the enemy just now.

Now that Zhao Gongming has been forced to retreat, it is natural to distribute the "spoils". Both the Chan Sect and the Western Sect are unwilling to let go of Shen Gongbao, the son of destiny who was destined to be a deity.

At the beginning, the Taoist Ancestor said it clearly that whoever can control the Son of Destiny during the Tribulation of the Conferred Gods will have the opportunity to control the Conferred God List and strike the Divine Whip.

So Guangchengzi spoke first: "Maitreya, Zhao Gongming has retreated, and he was forced back by my master's spiritual treasure Pangu Banner. This Shen Gongbao should be brought back by my Chanjiao to report to my master."

There was unquestionable majesty in Guangchengzi's tone, and the Fantian Seal in his hand glowed slightly, and it was obvious that he was ready to take action.

Maitreya smiled slightly, clasped his hands together, and said in a calm tone but with a hidden edge: "Daoyou, you are wrong! This Shen Gongbao is a demon! Don't you, the Chan Sect, look down on those who are covered with fur and horns and are born from eggs? If that's the case, don't force it.

It just so happens that Shen Gongbao has a connection with my Western Religion. This is destiny. I will take him westwards on the orders of the two leaders of the Religion."

After saying this, the shadow of Buddha appeared and disappeared behind Maitreya. Although the demon-subduing pearl had been broken, the golden light of "Amitabha Pure Light Cover" condensed again, and it was obvious that he was unwilling to give in.

"Humph! Miroku, do you want to have a fight with me?"

"No, you should know that the disciples of my Western Sect are all kind-hearted and hate fighting. It is really because Shen Gongbao and my Western Sect have a connection. Otherwise, I would not have fought with you. Please help me."

The two refused to give in to each other and the atmosphere became tense.

Shen Gongbao stood aside, his eyes flickering, as if he was thinking something in his mind, but he never uttered a word.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a gleam of light flashed in Maitreya's eyes, and then he took action with lightning speed.

Maitreya shouted in a low voice, and a whisk appeared in his hand.

With a wave of the whisk, thousands of silver threads shot out like spirit snakes, carrying the Buddha's light, and rushed straight towards Guangchengzi.

This whisk is named "Pingshi Whisk". It is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure that Zhunti got from the Fenbao Cliff. Later, this spiritual treasure was soaked in the Eight Treasures Merit Pool for several kalpas. Every silver thread was soaked and refined by the holy water in the Eight Treasures Merit Pool. It is soft yet hard, can wrap and pierce, and has infinite power.

Guangchengzi reacted extremely quickly to Maitreya's sneak attack. He swung the Red Flame Sword in his hand against the wind, and the hot sword energy was like a rainbow, colliding with the silver threads of Jingshifu. Immediately, flames splashed everywhere, and the silver threads broke into pieces.

However, Maitreya was well prepared. When Guangchengzi swung his sword, he flashed and blasted out with his Buddha's palm, emitting a bright golden light that went straight to Guangchengzi's chest.

Guangchengzi hurriedly used the Fantian Seal to resist, but there was a loud "bang". Although the Fantian Seal blocked the Buddha's palm, it shocked his breath and made his injuries even more serious.

Both of them had been severely injured by Zhao Gongming before. When they fought again at this moment, their magic power was not flowing smoothly. Although their moves were still fierce, they could no longer regain their peak power.

Guangchengzi waved the Red Flame Sword, and the sword energy was everywhere, trying to force Maitreya back; Maitreya fought with the Pure World Brush, and with the Buddha's light protecting his body, he pressed forward step by step. For a moment, magic weapons clashed in the void, and the power of Buddhism collided violently, shaking the heaven and earth.

However, after a short while, both of them felt powerless, their movements gradually became slower, and their breathing became more disordered.

Seeing that things were not going well, Guangchengzi gritted his teeth and took out the Pangu Banner, intending to use the power of the innate treasure to intimidate Maitreya and end the fight.

Guangchengzi held a banner in his hand, chaotic energy surged, and the pressure between heaven and earth reappeared. When he was about to wave it, something strange happened. A ray of golden light shot out from a distance, as fast as thunder, and went straight to the back of Guangchengzi.

Guangchengzi was caught off guard and only had time to dodge to the side, but the golden light still hit his shoulder. Blood spurted out immediately, his body staggered, and the Pangu Banner almost slipped out of his hand.

"Golden Lotus Seed!" Guangchengzi gritted his teeth and growled. He turned his head and saw a figure emerging from the clouds. It was the Golden Lotus Seed of the Western Religion.

Jin Lianzi's cultivation has reached the peak of the Daluo Golden Immortal. He is holding a ninth-grade golden lotus in his hand. As the lotus blooms, the Buddha's light shines brightly, containing infinite magical powers.

This ninth-grade golden lotus is obviously the true form of the Golden Lotus Seed. One should know that the Golden Lotus Seed was enlightened by the Heavenly Dao, and each lotus leaf is condensed by the merits of the Heavenly Dao, making it capable of both offense and defense. The sneak attack on Guangchengzi just now was caused by the Golden Lotus Seed using the merits of the Heavenly Dao to cover up Guangchengzi and catch him off guard.

When Maitreya saw the Golden Lotus Seed appear, he smiled slightly. It was obvious that he knew that reinforcements were nearby. In fact, the reason he suddenly took action just now was because he received the message from the Golden Lotus Seed.

Maitreya took advantage of the situation and swung the Purifying Whisk, and the silver threads were like a net, entangling Guangchengzi.

Golden Lotus Seed flashed and came to the side of Shen Gongbao. The ninth-grade golden lotus shone brightly, enveloping Shen Gongbao. Then it turned into a golden light and flew into the air with Shen Gongbao.

"Want to leave?!" Guangchengzi shouted angrily and took a deep breath, trying to activate the Pangu Banner to chase after him. However, due to his severe injuries, his magic power was limited and the chaotic energy only surged for a moment before dissipating.

He could only watch as Jin Lianzi fled away and disappeared into the horizon with Shen Gongbao.

Maitreya saw that his goal had been achieved, so he did not want to fight any more. He put his hands together and said loudly: "Daoyou, this Shen Gongbao has a destiny with my Western Religion, so I will take him away. Goodbye."

After saying this, Maitreya's figure flashed and turned into golden light and fled away. Guangchengzi stood alone in the void, blood dripping from his shoulder, his breath disordered, looking at the golden light going away, his face gloomy, his anger was hard to calm down, but he could only put away the Pangu Banner and turned away helplessly.

Although the battle ended in an indecisive manner, Shen Gongbao eventually fell into the hands of the Western Sect, and the Chan Sect lost all face. Guangchengzi knew that he would have to face the accusation of his master after returning.

On the other side, Zhao Gongming, who was hiding in the void and blending with the surrounding strong winds, watched the rest of the show.

Zhao Gongming practiced the "Nine-Turn Hunyuan Art" created by Bai Jing for him. After mastering this art, he could transform his own roots into the Void Wind. Now that Zhao Gongming has reached the middle stage of the eighth turn, his body is comparable to the middle stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal, and his roots have also completed part of the transformation. Not to mention merging with the Gangfeng, even the space storm is under Zhao Gongming's control.

In this state, as long as Zhao Gongming does not reveal his own aura, even if a saint himself comes, he will not be able to find him without a careful search. If the saint's spiritual perception is fully open, it will be difficult for him to hide.

"I really don't know what Master and Teacher are thinking. Why do they want to push this child of destiny out? Isn't it a good thing to be in charge of the List of Gods?" Zhao Gongming muttered softly, and then showed up.

He hesitated for a moment, and did not chase Maitreya and Jin Lianzi anymore, but flew directly back to Chaoge City.

Guangchengzi dragged his tired and wounded body and flew all the way back to Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountain.

Guangchengzi walked into the main hall, where Yuanshi Tianzun sat on a nine-tiered throne, surrounded by a chaotic aura and looking unfathomable in majesty. He bowed his head and kowtowed to his master, then reported his entire trip in a serious tone.

After listening to Guangchengzi's narration, Yuanshi Tianzun's face darkened, and there seemed to be lightning flashing in his eyes. The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became depressing.

Guangchengzi lowered his head and said nothing, with cold sweat on his forehead. He knew in his heart that he would not be able to escape the punishment of his master after this failure.

"Guangchengzi! You are the first disciple of my Chan sect, yet you couldn't even protect a mere Shen Gongbao, and let him fall into the hands of the Western sect. This is a disgrace to my Yuxu Palace!" Yuanshi Tianzun's voice was like a loud bell, spreading in the hall with boundless pressure.

This terrifying pressure that only belonged to a saint caused a layer of cold sweat to seep out of Guang Chengzi's forehead. Guang Chengzi kowtowed and apologized: "I am incompetent, I am willing to be punished, please calm down, Master!"

Yuanshi Tianzun originally wanted to scold Guangchengzi a few more times, but when his eyes fell on Guangchengzi, he saw that the blood on his shoulder had not dried yet, his breathing was disordered, his robe was torn, and he looked in a miserable state. The anger in his heart couldn't help but subside a little.

Guangchengzi was the disciple he valued most. Even the Nan Ji Xian Weng, who had been with him for many years, could not compare to Guangchengzi's position in his heart.

Seeing Guangchengzi in such an awkward situation, Yuanshi Tianzun was angry, but he couldn't bear to scold him any more. He snorted coldly, and although his tone was still stern, he was no longer aggressive: "Forget it, Zhao Gongming has the Dinghai Divine Pearl and the Dragon Binding Rope, his body is strong, and his strength is not bad. It's enough for you to use Pangu Banner to force him back.

Your mistake is that you look down on the disciples of the Western religion too much. The Western religion is extremely shameless. Jie Yin and Zhunti used to act like this, and now their disciples also behave like this. They are truly of the same lineage. "

"Thank you for your generosity, Master. However, after this defeat, Shen Gongbao fell into the hands of the Western Sect, which may be detrimental to our great plan for the Chan Sect."

Yuanshi Tianzun narrowed his eyes and said with a serious face: "The Western Sect's move is clearly a provocation to the majesty of our Chan Sect. Maitreya, Jin Lianzi, humph, and Zhunti and Jieyin hiding behind, are they bullying me, Yuxu, as there is no one there?"

Having said this, Yuanshi Tianzun suddenly paused, as if thinking about something.

After a moment, Yuanshi Tianzun had returned to his usual calm demeanor: "We cannot let this matter rest. I will hold this account against the Western Master, and we will settle the accounts in the future."

Guang Chengzi heard the deep meaning in his master's tone and knew that Yuanshi Tianzun did not completely blame him. He felt relieved and said respectfully: "I feel ashamed of the master's teachings. I am willing to make meritorious contributions to redeem myself from this humiliation."

Yuanshi Tianzun waved his hand and said calmly: "You go down and heal your wounds. I have my own ideas on this matter. Since the Western Sect dares to take action, don't blame me for being merciless."

Guangchengzi bowed his head and retreated. Although he still felt a little guilty, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that with Yuanshi Tianzun's temperament, he would never swallow this humiliation easily, and this time the feud with the Western Church was completely established.

Inside the Yuxu Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun sat alone with a cold gaze, while outside the Kunlun Mountains, the sea of clouds rolled, and a hint of solemn and murderous aura could be seen between heaven and earth, foreshadowing that greater disputes were about to come.

Our attention turns to Western religion.

Maitreya and Jin Lianzi brought back Shen Gongbao, and the two saints from the West were naturally very happy.

The Son of Destiny of the Conferred God Tribulation has fallen into the hands of their Western religion, and the subsequent Conferred God List and the Divine Whip will naturally also be under the control of their Western religion.

At that time, their Western disciples would not have to participate in the Conferred God Tribulation, and they could use the Conferred God List and the Divine Whip to seek the position of God in Heaven. This would be a great thing for their Western religion.

“Brother, what are you going to do with the son of destiny in this calamity of the gods?” Zhunti asked.

"Since he is the son of destiny, then accept him as my Western Religion's personal disciple! With the good fortune of the Heavenly Dao, his cultivation speed will certainly not be slow. After the subsequent Conferred God Tribulation is over, my Western Religion may be able to add another Quasi-Saint."

"Brother, please be merciful. It is a blessing for Shen Gongbao to be able to join our Western Sect. Otherwise, with his spirit body, if he had joined the Chan Sect, Yuanshi Tianzun would definitely not have taught him any profound Taoist methods.

With his background, Yuanshi Tianzun's style of doing things is likely to use him and then arrange a position for him in heaven."

Jie Yin smiled and didn't say much. Some things can be understood by everyone tacitly and there is no need to explain them too clearly.

Then Jie Yin asked Maitreya and Jin Lianzi to bring Shen Gongbao in.

Shen Gongbao had no objection to becoming Jie Yin's disciple. He had previously wanted to become a disciple of Tong Tian Jiao Zhu, but wasn't he snatched away from Zhao Gongming before he even arrived at Jie Jiao?
Now it seems not bad to be able to have Jie Yin as my teacher.

Although Jie Yin is not one of the Three Pure Ones, nor is he a member of the orthodox Xuanmen sect, there is still a huge gap between the Taoist's registered disciples and his direct disciples.

But no matter what, Jie Yin is a saint! If he becomes Jie Yin's disciple, he will have a saint as his backer, which is definitely a sure win for Shen Gongbao.

Thinking of this, Shen Gongbao no longer hesitated and bowed down.

Jie Yin nodded with satisfaction, let Shen Gongbao get up, and then taught him some skills of their Western religion.

Shen Gongbao was extremely excited after receiving the Dharma taught by the saint himself. He immediately found a cave and began to practice in seclusion.

When he met Shen Gongbao, he became more and more satisfied with this son of destiny.
