Crow in the West, starting to evolve from the plundering entry

Chapter 326 The Lord of the Eastern Emperor
The third day of March.

The whole world mourns.

On this day, the sacred Buddhist mountain collapsed, and countless Buddhists perished.

On this day, the Buddhas of the past, present, and future all suffered a great defeat.

Buddhism
This once-powerful force has finally faced the most terrible calamity in its history.

One wrong move and the entire Buddhist community could fall into decline.

even
However, extinction seems impossible.
After all, there are saints in Buddhism.

A sage is like a pillar that stabilizes the sea.

Not to mention, in Buddhism, there are two saints living in the same heaven.

To put it bluntly, even if the Heavenly Court collapses and the Nine Netherworlds shatter, Buddhism will remain as stable as Mount Tai.

unless
But is that even possible?

Throughout history, sages have always been high above, looking down upon all living beings.

Time passed slowly, and more than half a month had passed since the battle between the Buddha and the demon.

For the past two weeks, everything has returned to calm.

It seems like nothing happened.

But anyone with eyes can see that something seems off about Buddhism.

One Buddhist temple after another closed its doors.

One temple after another closed its doors.

Even the ascetics were all on their way back.

The territory of Buddhism is shrinking rapidly.

However, that's not all.

Or rather, all the gods and immortals in the sky saw it.
The decline of Buddhism is now unstoppable.

after all
The sacred mountain, the most fundamental site of Buddhism, has already collapsed.

This is like the foundation of fortune in Buddhism.

The foundation is damaged.

Now, decline is only a matter of time.

Sooner or later.

But decline is inevitable.

Who could have imagined that the great calamity of the Journey to the West, which was supposed to be a path to the flourishing of Buddhism, would turn out this way?

"The Buddhist sect is truly audacious, daring to plot a great calamity."

"Indeed, Buddhism is reaping what it sowed."

"You really deserve it."

Some sneered, while others rejoiced.
For most people, this is a good thing about Buddhism.

This is a tremendously good thing.

At the same time
The demon race also celebrated.

"Hahaha, I never expected that our demon race would have a demon emperor appear out of nowhere?"

"Demon Emperor?"

"Isn't the Heavenly Crow King, the Emperor of all demons, now the Demon Emperor of the demon race?"

"what?"

"This"

"Indeed, King Sky Crow lives up to the name of 'Demon Emperor'."

One discussion after another caused a stir throughout the entire demon race.

Demon Emperor.

This is the most noble and terrifying title for the demon race.

The entire demon race,

From ancient times to the present.

There are only two demon emperors.

And now, there is a third one.

And that was the Heavenly Crow Demon Emperor.

What's even more terrifying is that it's not just ordinary demons who think this way.

Even some ancient monsters think so.

The reason is quite simple.

"Demon Emperor, this is the return of the Demon Emperor."

The moment Bai Ze sensed the aura of 'Donghuang Taiyi', tears streamed down his face.

He even knelt down on both knees and bowed towards the west.

If it weren't for the fact that a major battle was taking place at that moment, he probably would have rushed over immediately.

However, one thing is certain.

That means he knew the Demon Emperor had returned.

Really back.

That peerless demon emperor has returned once again.

They unleashed earth-shattering combat power.

Sweeping across all directions, looking down upon mountains and rivers.

The Buddha appeared beneath his feet, and punched Kong Xuan.

Sweeping across the world with 'invincible prowess'.

"Was that really the Demon Emperor?"

In a daze, another old monster lost his senses.

Even now, he still can't believe that the Demon Emperor has returned.

Wasn't the Demon Emperor already dead?
Why did you suddenly come back?

Puzzled, confused.

More than anything, I felt excited and delighted.

At the same time, far away in Beihai, a figure stood like a statue for a long time.

It's been half a month.

The figure remained motionless.

He was as if he had frozen in place.

Staring blankly.

"Donghuang."

The demon master Kunpeng murmured aloud.

And in his mind, he couldn't help but recall what had happened about half a month ago. He had sensed it the moment Donghuang Taiyi returned.

Then, he headed straight west.

All for the sake of meeting the Eastern Emperor.

I met with this old friend.

But someone stopped them.

And that was none other than the Eastern Emperor.

A wisp of his divine thought transformed into a firebird, blocking the Kunpeng.

The two met, but remained silent for a long time.

Yet countless words flooded my mind.

After a long silence, Kunpeng finally spoke with a bitter tone:

I've let you down.

A simple sentence, yet it carries an indescribable sense of guilt.

He is a demonic sorcerer, and he has done wrong.

He said it back then
But now

The entire demon race has completely declined.

They never recovered.

He felt guilty.

“I’m not disappointed.”

"Donghuang Taiyi said calmly."

"On the contrary, I am glad that the demon race can continue to exist, and, as you know, I have never cared about the demon race."

Donghuang Taiyi's voice carried a hint of vicissitude, as if he were reminiscing about the past.

That day,
Donghuang Taiyi and Kunpeng talked for a long time.

No one knows what they talked about.

But after Donghuang disappeared, Kunpeng fell into a long silence.

It has stood there ever since.

An old friend has returned.

This should be a cause for joy.

Unfortunately, this parting turned out to be a true farewell forever.

"Donghuang."

With another soft call, the demon master Kunpeng looked towards the distance.

There, a figure sat cross-legged.

And that was none other than Yu Qiye.

Immediately after leaving Lingshan, Yu Qiye headed towards Beihai.

He is very clear,

In the entire Three Realms, only three people can protect him.

One is the Kunpeng of the demon race.

The second is Houtu, the Netherworld Goddess.

Thirdly, there was his mentor, Patriarch Bodhi.

However, Houtu of the Nine Netherworlds may not protect him.

As for my revered teacher, Patriarch Bodhi, he is difficult to find.

He had no choice but to head to Beihai.

Then he asked Kunpeng to protect him.

"boom"

With a sudden roar, ten suns appeared in the sky, circling around Yu Qiye.

Various strange phenomena continued to intertwine.

Even more myriad paths emerged.

That is the Way and the Principle.

It is also the embodiment of various forces.

"Boom"

The gentle tolling of the bell resonates in people's hearts.

Before anyone knew it, a blurred bell shadow had already landed on Yu Qiye's body.

This is a phantom image of the Eastern Emperor Bell.

She actually took the initiative to protect Yu Qiye.

At the same time, deep within Yu Qiye's mind...

"From now on, you will be my master."

A simple sentence, yet it carries an indescribable complexity.

"This"

Yu Qiye fell silent.

He raised his eyes and looked at the beautiful figure shrouded in white mist not far away.

She was tall and slender, with an astonishingly beautiful appearance.

His body was surrounded by numerous orbs of light.

Each ball of light seemed to be a vast world in itself.

Three thousand orbs of light, like three thousand worlds, surrounded him.

Countless gods and demons were bowing in reverence.

And this was none other than the true spirit of the Eastern Emperor Bell.

Yu Qiye originally thought that only after becoming a saint could he possibly become the master of the Eastern Emperor Bell.

It's only a possibility.

But he never expected that the Eastern Emperor Bell would now take the initiative to recognize him as its master.

"actually."

Yu Qiye hesitated.

"You are qualified to be my master."

"The true spirit of the Chaos Bell spoke frankly."

She never rejects having an owner.

For her, the more important question is whether her master can truly control her.
And without a doubt, Yu Qiye now is very likely the person she has been waiting for.
