The Great Way to Truth, Starting from Jiazi Laodao

Chapter 155: The Toad and the Rabbit Fight for the Moon, Mountains and Rivers Overturn and the Dragon Ball Shattered

The sound was plain and entered into the void, but it was as loud as the sound of a Huang Zhong or a Da Lu, awakening the deaf.

A majestic aura of war and murder condensed, the three spiritual lamps of heaven, earth and man were shattered, the mysteries of the three talents within them poured out, a large amount of starlight flowed out of the 720 acupoints in the body, and arcs of lightning swirled and flowed out from the back.

A large amount of energy formed a light cocoon behind Xuanming. It appeared in an instant and shattered in an instant. The Gouchen Dharma was broken and then re-established. It was born in war, died in war, and transformed in war.

Golden armor, magic sword, red cape, nine-color divine light, Gou Chen reappeared, but this time it was not a Dharma image, but a Shinto Dharma body. Compared with the thousand-foot Dharma image, the Dharma body was condensed to five hundred feet, but its power was doubled:

The three talents are divided into yin and yang, and the five elements are distributed in different ways. Follow the example of the spirits and the virtues of the gods, guard against the dark and praise the emperor.

Where the Dharma body stood, there was the sound of horses neighing like thousands of troops. The shadows of the heavenly soldiers and generals around him became clearer, and their blurred facial features revealed their true appearance, which was 90% similar to Xuanming. Within three meters around Gou Chen's body, it seemed as if another world was isolated. Wind, rain, thunder and lightning were excluded. The pressure of the Great Dao on Xuanming was greatly reduced.

He bowed slightly: "Thank you, True Dragon, for your help."

Then his mind moved, and the Tai Chi Dao domain turned into Dao fruit. Xuanming and the map of mountains and rivers under his feet turned into points of light and poured into the Gou Chen Xuanguan. The Shinto Dharma body gained more vitality, his eyes became more lively, and a Shinto pressure suddenly rose.

Killing people and killing people's hearts is nothing more than this!

The real dragon was furious, with a lot of white air coming out of its nostrils. At the same time, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and he looked at the dragon's eyes of Gou Chen's Dharma body with an undisguised fear.

The pressure from his status became even stronger, causing him to feel uneasy and his scales tightened suddenly.

hold head high!
With a shocking dragon roar, the real dragon took the initiative and rushed towards the Dharma body of Gou Chen, bringing with it wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and the pressure of the Great Dao.

The divine light was brilliant, the divine way was majestic, and the Dharmakaya of Gou Chen was awe-inspiring without anger. He raised his hand and swung the sword. The movement seemed slow, but it was within reach in the blink of an eye.

Amid the magnificent sword light there is the sound of golden weapons and iron horses, as if swallowing a thousand miles like a tiger. Thousands of troops roar along with the sword light, forming a cruel battlefield with raging flames, flashing swords and shadows, and forests of spears and halberds.

In this head-on confrontation, relying on innate suppression and divine control, Gou Chen's Dharma body was able to fight against the real dragon and not lose the upper hand.

The moment the Gou Chen Dharma Image was shattered, under the relentless siege of numerous monsters and great demons, cracks appeared in the Bagua Four Symbols Array. The demons were in high spirits, roaring with excitement and determined to make further efforts, while Qiu Zhen Guan was horrified and tightened his sword-holding hands.

"Disciples of Qiuzhen Temple, prepare and draw your swords!"

Xuanxu acted promptly and issued orders.

The breaking of the formation was inevitable and was also expected: firstly, the number of people in Qiuzhen Temple was limited and their cultivation was limited. Although the Eight Trigrams Four Symbols formation was exquisite, it was difficult for them alone to unleash its full power.

Secondly, two fists cannot beat four hands, and even a tiger is afraid of a pack of wolves. Even the strongest fortress cannot withstand the continuous attack of tens of thousands. It is not easy for Qiuzhen Temple to fight against the enemy with a small number of people and persist for several hours to achieve such results.

While the formation has not yet collapsed, Qiuzhen Guandao gave up defense and focused all his energy on attack, because attack is the best defense.

Before dying in battle, they must try their best to expand the results of the battle, kill more demons, and reduce the pressure on the human cultivators at the foot of Floating Cloud Mountain as much as possible. Only when the human race is stable and the people are safe, can they seek truth and see the way of the Tao and die a worthy death and their souls rest in peace. Otherwise, they will die with their eyes open.

"Disciple of Qiuzhen Temple, draw your sword again!"

"Draw the sword! Draw the sword! Draw the sword!"

Xuanxu's orders were endless and loud, and his firmness carried a hint of sadness that he himself was not aware of. More than a hundred Taoists gritted their teeth and persisted, fighting hard. Their movements were in unison, following the trajectory of the Eight Trigrams and Four Symbols, and they struck out with swords from all angles.

The sword energy is sharp, the sword sounds whistling, the sword intent soars into the sky, the majestic sword light may turn into wind and thunder, or change into mountains and swamps, or become rain and snow, or evolve into the four sacred beasts.

The Bagua Four Symbols formation diagram shrank, the Bagua mirror and the Four Symbols spiritual weapon shone brightly, and the truth-seeking audience attacked more concentratedly, and the killing intent became more terrifying. The sword rain fell, hundreds of birds fell, thousands of beasts were injured or killed, and the blood rain drifted. No matter how many corpses there were, the battlefield had long been stained black with blood, and the stench was pungent.

Several Jindan demons joined forces, some sacrificed feathers, some swung star hammers, and some brandished bone sticks. They displayed their magical powers, either attacking or defending, dissipating sword intent, resisting the rain of swords, and creating a world for the little demon.

The Zhoutian or innate big monsters would gather in groups of three or five, huddling together for warmth and resisting the rain of swords, and taking the nearby small monsters into their shelter. Having fought for so long, they knew the power of the formation. Even the innate big monsters below the Jindan level were in danger of falling. These were all bloody lessons. They learned from the past and served as a guide for the future. They never made the same mistake.

The two holy fetus demons led some of the demon tribe and attacked the formation frantically. They were the descendants of true dragons and all had the bodies of Chilongs. They could control the wind and rain and attract thunder and lightning.

With every impact, the Bagua Four Symbols Formation would roar and a crack would appear. The formation would shrink by a hundred feet, and a crack would appear on the Bagua Mirror, and the light of the Four Symbols spiritual weapon would dim.

Victory is in sight, the demons are excited, their blood is boiling, and they charge forward one after another; the formation is about to be broken, and the Taoist priest Qiuzhen fights like a trapped beast, regardless of the consequences, fighting madly and making a desperate attempt.

In Fengyang County City, the worldly atmosphere and the scholarly atmosphere are incompatible, the worldly cloth and the sage's demon-slaying map obliterate each other and end up completely destroying each other, a red line and a painting of ink collide in the void, the eight-tailed demon fox fights against the Confucian sage, the great ways compete, and the laws suppress.

They were all masters of the second stage of spiritual cultivation, with superb control over power. They each deployed their own Dao domain and fought in the sky. The remaining power was confined within the Dao domain, and no innocent people were harmed.

On Cuiping Mountain, Lord Chaoguang turned into the sun, while the Lord of the Underworld turned into the underworld. Light and darkness competed for glory in the laws, and rebirth and death rose and fell in the avenue. The battle between the two great cultivators entered a white-hot stage. The Lord of the Underworld won because he had practiced spirit for a longer time and had a deep accumulation; Lord Chaoguang won because of his long inheritance and the blessing of magic weapons from his master. They each had their own advantages, and it was difficult to determine the winner in a short time.

On Qingya Mountain, two bright moons shine together, one round like a jade plate, the other curved like a jade hook. The movement and stillness fight each other. Lord Xianyue transforms into a jade rabbit, and the fighting toad monster king reveals his true form. The two moons merge into one, and the toad and the rabbit start the most primitive fight in the moon, a close combat.

The first battle to decide the outcome was the Floating Cloud Mountain battlefield. In the True Dragon Dao domain, the Gou Chen Dharmakaya and the True Dragon were evenly matched. With the help of the Taiyi Rescuer of Sufferings Dharmakaya, Xuanming took advantage of every opportunity to shake the True Dragon's soul, making it dazed from time to time. In this battle, Xuanming finally gained the upper hand.

But that’s not enough!
Because the real dragon was suppressed, Xuanming was able to break through the blockade of the avenue and glimpse the external battlefield. He saw that the Eight Trigrams Four Symbols formation was crumbling, and the Taoists in the formation fell one after another. Even Xuanxu and other Qigong masters had blood rushing up their cheeks and blood oozing from the corners of their mouths.

Feeling that his own magic power was about to run out, he became ruthless and made a silent decision in his heart.

The Dharmakaya of Gou Chen swung the sword, and boundless starlight, violent thunder and the aura of war merged together. A battlefield was created with one sword. Thousands of horses galloped, and the entire army charged towards the True Dragon Realm. A majestic river of swords surged, tearing through the void and washing away the laws.

The Dharma body of Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun followed closely behind and threw the willow branch in his hand directly at the real dragon. The branch turned into a big tree, flashing with nine-color light and emitting mysterious fluctuations, ignoring the physical body and directly shaking the soul.

The real dragon fought back and spit out the dragon ball. A big sun and the vast ocean pressed down, and the waves were surging and white waves were surging.

The sword river collided with the vast ocean, the sun and the sword intent faded away, the real dragon was prepared for the magical powers of Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun's Dharma body, and let out bursts of dragon roars to offset the attacks of the soul.

Just when this round was about to end in a draw, a stream of light suddenly rushed out from the Sword River and unfolded in a flash. Mountains, rivers, lakes and seas emerged and supported the sun.

The real dragon suddenly felt something was wrong and wanted to take back the dragon ball, but it was too late. At the critical moment, Gou Chen's Dharma body made the first sound since his birth:
"burst!"

One word, with powerful force.

In a word, deafening.

One word, shaking the world.

His tone was sonorous, revealing a determination to fight to the bitter end.

In an instant, mountains collapsed, rivers dried up, plains collapsed, valleys sank, and half of the laws within them exploded, returning to heaven and earth.

The sun is dim, like the setting sun, and its setting sun is as red as blood.
