Daily Intelligence: From Water Snake to Jinghe Dragon King

Chapter 318 The Queen Mother of the West Seeks the Buddha at Yaochi; The Two Devise a Plan to Elimin

When Dipankara Buddha learned of what was happening in the mortal realm, he was just as anxious as Tathagata Buddha, wishing he could get rid of Guangchengzi immediately and go down to the mortal realm.

Under no circumstances should we allow Liu Qing to occupy the innate supreme treasure, the Myriad Dragon Palace, and gain the power to command the dragon race of the Three Realms, thus further strengthening our forces.

Don't underestimate the Dragon Clan just because they are merely food for some powerful beings in the Three Realms. They seem insignificant, but that's because after the Dragon-Phoenix Calamity, the Dragon Clan lost their position as the protagonists of heaven and earth. Their fortune backfired, and they were rejected by the Heavenly Dao. After being conferred the title of gods, they were repeatedly suppressed by the Heavenly Court led by Haotian. That's why they have become a small character that can be bullied at will in the eyes of all beings in the Three Realms.

However, the dragon race originated from the ancient times. Although it has declined, it still has a profound foundation. Just by looking at the dragon race's supreme treasure, the Myriad Dragon Palace, which has been born this time, one can get a glimpse of its strength.

In addition, the four Dragon Kings who are currently in power are all powerful beings in the early stage of the Great Luo Realm, as well as the other four River Dragon Kings, the Dragon Gods of the rivers, seas and lakes, and the numerous dragon sons and grandsons and other dragon-related creatures.

Looking across the Three Realms, in terms of sheer numbers, the Dragon Clan is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with.

If Liu Qing were to seize the Myriad Dragons Palace, transform from a dragon into a true dragon, and become the emperor of the dragon race, possessing the right to command all dragons and billions of dragon-related beings under heaven, then Liu Qing would be even more difficult to deal with.

Furthermore, Liu Qing was originally the acting leader of the Jie Sect. With the Dragon Clan and the Jie Sect both under his command, Liu Qing was undoubtedly the most powerful and influential figure in the Three Realms, without exception.

Buddhism and Liu Qing were already at odds, and Buddhism certainly did not want to see Liu Qing's power increase.

Therefore, Dipankara Buddha was extremely anxious and wanted to get rid of Guangchengzi. Since the Qiankun Ruler was stolen, Dipankara Buddha also took out his natal spiritual treasure, the coffin, which rarely appeared in the world.

The coffin was the first coffin in the primordial world, belonging to the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and naturally possessed terrifying power. After its appearance, it instantly boosted the combat power of the Dipankara Buddha.

Unfortunately, Guang Chengzi was not the Holy Mother of Wudang. The Holy Mother of Wudang only had one Wudang sword, while Guang Chengzi had many spiritual treasures, each of which was not to be underestimated.

The Fantian Seal, crafted by Yuanshi Tianzun himself using half of Buzhou Mountain as its material, is only a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure, but its power surpasses that of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure and rivals that of an innate supreme treasure.

In addition, there is the innate top-grade spiritual treasure, the Soul-Snatching Bell. As long as the bell is rung, the sound can protect one's own soul while also attacking the soul of the opponent, seizing their soul and stealing their spirit. It is truly terrifying.

Furthermore, with his defensive magical treasure, the Sweeping Cloud Robe, and the complete set of magical treasures, the male and female twin swords, Guang Chengzi, with so many high-level magical treasures by his side, faced the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp, who was eager to fight to the death, with just a light touch and no pressure whatsoever.

Guang Chengzi stood with the Soul-Slaying Bell above his head, the Heaven-Turning Seal in his hand, and a robe of sweeping clouds around him. On either side of him, the twin swords, male and female, were like menacing dragons, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

The ancient Buddha of the Burning Lamp fell silent instantly, feeling extremely frustrated.

When both parties are at the half-step Hunyuan Dao Fruit realm, whoever has more spiritual treasures and whose spiritual treasures are more powerful will have stronger combat strength.

Dipankara Buddha tragically discovered that he was being overwhelmed by Guang Chengzi. Although at their level, they were not easily injured, he was still embarrassed and it was completely impossible for him to break free from Guang Chengzi's entanglement.

Dipankara Buddha transmitted his voice to Tathagata Buddha, explaining his current situation. Tathagata Buddha had no choice but to go to the mortal world alone.

The reason why the Buddha Tathagata insisted on waiting for Dipankara Buddha to join him was not because of Liu Qing, but because he was very wary of the Taoist Yu Yu.

No matter how strong Liu Qing's combat power was, he was not taken seriously by the Buddha. The only person the Buddha could be wary of in the Three Realms was Yu Yu Dao Ren, a wisp of the Tongtian Sage's soul.

The Buddha believed that Yu Yu Daoist was in Biyou Palace, keeping a close eye on Liu Qing and protecting her. However, he did not know that Yu Yu Daoist was currently in the Heavenly Court, intimidating the Jade Emperor, and was unable to spare any attention for himself.

The Buddha was heading towards the human world with trepidation, but the appearance of one person made his trepidation disappear instantly.

Suddenly, the Queen Mother of the West appeared in the clouds ahead.

The Queen Mother of the West did not ride in the Eight Views Carriage, a primordial treasure representing her status, nor was she accompanied by any fairy maidens. Instead, she came alone, clearly indicating that she had important business to attend to and did not want others to know.

She wore a golden hairpin, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and held a dragon-headed cane, also a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, in her hand. Behind her, the faint phantom of the Ren Water Peach, one of the ten innate spiritual roots, appeared.

Seeing the Queen Mother of the West in such a state, the Buddha was puzzled, but out of courtesy, he did not ask directly. After chanting a Buddhist prayer, he asked, "Queen Mother, may I ask why you have condescended to stop this humble monk?"

The Queen Mother of the Jade Pool was only at the Great Luo Realm Perfection stage, and her cultivation was slightly weaker than that of the Buddha Tathagata. However, because she was the nominal Queen Mother of Heaven in the Three Realms, the Buddha Tathagata was very humble in her presence.

“Buddha, you are the leader of a religion, how can you speak of yourself as a lowly monk?”

"I have come here in secret for no other reason than to come specifically for you, Buddha Tathagata."

The Buddha frowned slightly. The Queen Mother of the West rarely appeared in the Three Realms, but this time she specifically came for him, which made him even more puzzled.

"Your Majesty, please speak frankly. This humble monk has urgent business to attend to and cannot delay."

The Queen Mother of the West smiled faintly: "I know what you're anxious about." She pointed to the Southern Continent in the lower realm and continued: "Buddha, if you were to go to the lower realm to stop Liu Qing from transforming into a dragon and taking over the Hall of Ten Thousand Dragons, wouldn't you be afraid that Daoist Yu Yu would take your sword and kill you?"

Ever since Princess Longji was captured by Liu Qing and the Gathering Immortals Banner, which she had used to protect Princess Longji, the Queen Mother of the West had been keeping a close eye on Liu Qing. Although she was anxious, she wasn't worried, believing that Haotian would intervene to suppress Liu Qing and rescue Princess Longji.

But after waiting for a long time, Haotian did not make a move. Puzzled, he left Yaochi and went to Lingxiao Palace.

Just now, I was shocked to discover that Yu Yu Dao Ren was forcing Hao Tian to drink with him, using this as an excuse to keep Hao Tian from being distracted, and also shielding Hao Tian's senses from the recent events.

The Queen Mother of the West dared not face Yu Yu Dao Ren directly and planned to personally descend to the mortal realm to suppress Liu Qing, but before she could do so, she suddenly awoke.

With Daoist Yu Yu present, if she dared to attack Liu Qing, she would likely be detected by Daoist Yu Yu in an instant and be killed with a single sword strike.

Upon realizing this, the Queen Mother of the West was filled with trepidation and forcibly suppressed her intention to personally suppress Liu Qing.

Then, seeing that Liu Qing had successfully transformed into a dragon, she let out a dragon roar to the sky. At that moment, the Dragon Gathering Drum at the bottom of the East Sea sounded, gathering the blood of ten thousand dragons and summoning the Myriad Dragon Palace, the supreme treasure of the ancient primordial dragon race. It then went towards Liu Qing, intending to baptize him with the Myriad Dragon Palace so that he could evolve into a five-clawed golden dragon and become the emperor of the dragon race.

She almost couldn't resist taking off the gold hairpin and killing Liu Qing.

However, she was still too wary of Yu Yu Dao Ren and forcibly suppressed the urge to attack. When she used the Kunlun Mirror, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, to observe the lower realm, she suddenly discovered that the Buddha Tathagata had suppressed the Holy Mother Wudang and was hurriedly heading down to the lower realm.

Therefore, the Queen Mother of the West used her golden hairpin to tear through space and appeared before the Buddha.

The fact that the Queen Mother of the West once again pointed out the existence of the Taoist Yu Yu calmed the Buddha's anxious heart once more.

Looking across the Three Realms, which powerful being doesn't fear, or rather, dread, Yu Yu Dao Ren?

As a fragment of the soul of the Sage Tongtian, possessing some of the Sage Tongtian's sword dao insights, this sword strike was so powerful that even the Buddha Tathagata, who was at the half-step Hunyuan Dao Fruit level, was not confident that he could withstand it.

It seems like a half-step into the Primordial Dao Fruit, only a hair's breadth away from the Saint's position, but that hair's breadth is a world of difference, an absolute disparity.

"Golden Mother Goddess, I suppose you stopped this humble monk not simply to warn me of the terrifying nature of Daoist Yu Yu?"

"Please tell me clearly, Mother Goddess, there are only you and me here. I have long shielded you from the secrets of heaven. What comes out of your mouth goes into my ears, and no third person will ever know."

Not feeling at ease, the Queen Mother of the West used her golden hairpin to make a few more cuts around them. Instantly, the space outside the two of them was torn open, and the entire space they were in vanished into chaos.

Once inside the chaos, even with some of the saintly power of the Daoist Yu Yu, it was difficult for him to detect it.

The Queen Mother of the West looked deeply at the Buddha and slowly said, "We are all constrained in our actions because of that Yu Yu Daoist. Since that's the case, why don't we join forces to get rid of him?"

The Buddha was immediately alarmed: "Golden Mother, be careful what you say!"

"Don't you know how terrifying that Taoist Yu Yu is?"

"Yu Yu Dao Ren is only at the peak of the Great Luo Realm. The only thing that makes us wary is that he possesses some of the sword dao insights of the Tongtian Saint."

"That's right. Even though it's only a part of the Sword Dao insights of the Sage of Heaven, we can't accept it!"

"Could he kill you with a single sword strike?"

After pondering for a while, the Buddha slowly said, "It shouldn't be possible. My skills are quite good. At most, his sword could only seriously injure me."

A ruthless glint flashed in Yaochi Jinmu's eyes: "Since it won't cost us lives, then let's risk injury and join forces to annihilate it!"

The Buddha shook his head: "Even if we join forces and risk injury to bring down Daoist Yu Yu, have we forgotten the Sage Tongtian behind Daoist Yu Yu?"

"After all, Daoist Yu Yu is our senior uncle. If we attack him, and if the Sage Tongtian returns in the future, he will no longer care about his status and will kill us."

Yaochi Jinmu's face showed impatience: "This won't work, that won't work, Tathagata, you are the leader of a religion, yet you are not decisive in doing things. You are not even as good as this woman. You have disappointed me too much."

"Could the Sage Tongtian have returned from the chaos of the Outer Heavens so easily? If he can return, your two teachers will surely return as well. Why should you fear him?"

"Furthermore, if we don't kill that Yu Yu Daoist, with Yu Yu Daoist protecting him, Liu Qing's strength will definitely increase again. Given his style of doing things, when his strength grows to the point where he is no longer afraid of you and me, it will be the end of us!"

The Queen Mother of the West's voice suddenly rose: "To prevent future troubles, Liu Qing must be eliminated. Before eliminating Liu Qing, the remaining Daoists must first have him removed from the Three Realms!" (End of Chapter)
