Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 348 The Buddhist's Eloquent Debate (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The Five Elements True Man was thinking about Li Yunjing, his gaze shifting between the Holy Sound Fairy and the Flying Cloud True Man.

He said casually, "Fellow Daoists, now that we have reached a consensus, why don't we discuss the action plan in detail?"

"Alright! Since that's the case, I'll start, and everyone can give me feedback and see if my plan is sound!"

The Holy Sound Fairy nodded slightly, and with a light tap of her jade finger, a ray of spiritual light transformed into a map of the East Sea in the air.

She pointed to the locations of the "Soul Control Sect" and the "Ascetic Sect" and said, "Although both of these sects have fourth-order spiritual veins, the 'Soul Control Sect' excels in soul techniques, while the 'Ascetic Sect' is known for its body refinement. If we want to attack them, we will probably need different strategies."

Master Feiyun was also a local strongman in the East Sea and had his own ideas about the two sects. A glint flashed in his eyes: "Sacred Sound Fairy is right! However, I think that although the 'Soul Control Sect' is troublesome, the fellow Daoists of the 'Divine Firmament Dao Sect' can restrain them. That's just right, and we can crush them in one fell swoop!"

Seeing that no one spoke, Master Feiyun paused for a moment, then said, "As for the 'Ascetic Sect,' those bald monks' physical training techniques are truly formidable; they are not easy to deal with."

"You two need not worry! Since my 'Shenxiao Dao Sect' has stepped in, we will naturally provide corresponding methods to break the formation and techniques to counter it."

The Five Elements Master chuckled and took out two jade slips from his sleeve, saying, "Whether it's the 'Soul Control Sect' or the 'Ascetic Sect,' they must be destroyed! There is no other choice! This is a method I secretly researched based on the protective formations of the two sects, specifically designed to break their formations. Please take a look."

Saintly Sound Fairy and Flying Cloud True Man exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

They hadn't expected the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" to be so well-prepared, even having a method to break the formation.

Just then, the communication jade talisman of the Five Elements Immortal suddenly lit up.

He scanned the area with his divine sense and a meaningful smile appeared on his face: "Interesting. Elder Fazheng of Mingxin Temple is on his way, saying he wants to discuss the peace of the East China Sea with us."

"what?"

Master Feiyun suddenly stood up, exclaimed in surprise, and said, "How did that old bald monk know that we were having an alliance meeting here?"

Fairy Shengyin's expression also changed slightly: "It seems our plan has been leaked."

Other local Golden Core cultivators in the East China Sea were all discussing it animatedly.

They were clearly somewhat panicked, fearing that the people from Mingxin Temple, along with the armies of Yuhun Sect and Kuxing Sect, would come here and put them in great danger.

"No problem! Let's take this opportunity to have a match with them! No matter how many of them come, how can they possibly defeat so many experts here?"

Seeing the panicked expressions of the crowd, the Five Elements Master remained calm and spoke softly.

His voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly, and those who heard it immediately calmed down.

With the words of this great master from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," the entire audience calmed down, and all eyes turned to the Five Elements True Man.

The Five Elements Master smiled slightly, said nothing, and turned to the disciple serving beside him, saying, "Go and invite Li Yunjing over."

"Yes!"

The disciple was taken aback. He hadn't expected that at this time, the people from Mingxin Temple had arrived at a nearby place, and the patriarch was still looking for Li Yunjing.

However, the ancestor's order could not be refused.

The disciple quickly left the main hall and prepared to go find Li Yunjing.

The Nascent Soul and Golden Core realm experts from these forces in the East China Sea showed expressions of surprise.

Li Yunjing?
Who is this?

Is he a hidden master of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect"?

At this moment, only the two immortals of Bibo knew Li Yunjing's name. The two were quite surprised. Why would a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator be summoned by the Five Elements True Man at this time? Did he have some purpose?

What help can Li Yunjing offer in the current situation?
After searching around, the fellow disciple learned that Li Yunjing was staying at the "Star Moon Trading Company" and quickly sent him a message, asking him to come over.

Shortly after, Li Yunjing received the message.

"Is the Ancestor looking for me?"

Li Yunjing was startled. After giving Shi Huilan a few words of advice, he flew away from the market and headed towards the Shenxiao Temple branch.

At the entrance of the Shenxiao Temple branch, I happened to see my senior brother Wang waiting for me.

"What's the matter? So urgent?"

Li Yunjing asked immediately.

"Let's go in quickly! Here's what happened..."

Senior Brother Wang didn't dare to waste any time, and in a few words, he told Li Yunjing everything he had just heard.

"Does Mingxin Temple still dare to attack?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing's expression changed.

I wasn't afraid, but extremely angry!
The East Sea is the territory of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect". They haven't even launched an attack yet, but the enemy has come knocking on their door first!

How unreasonable!
Li Yunjing, his face grim, strode into the main hall. Looking around, seeing fifty or sixty Golden Core cultivators gathered there, Li Yunjing had no time to think. He quickly bowed to the Five Elements True Man, the Holy Sound Fairy, and the Flying Cloud True Man, then stood in the hall, awaiting instructions from the Five Elements True Man.

"Yun Jing!"

The Five Elements True Man looked at this outstanding true disciple of the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect" and laughed, "Tell me, what is the 'Mingxin Temple' planning to do at this time?"

Senior Brother Wang had already explained the situation, so Li Yunjing was not completely unaware of it.

Li Yunjing pondered for a moment and said, "This disciple believes that the people from Mingxin Temple have come not to engage in a decisive battle with us!"

"Oh?"

The Five Elements Master raised an eyebrow and asked calmly, "How do you know?"

"The East Sea is blocked by my 'Shenxiao Dao Sect'! It will be much more difficult for 'Mingxin Temple' to mobilize its forces to the East Sea than for us!"
Li Yunjing paused for a moment, then analyzed, "The 'Soul Control Sect' and the 'Ascetic Sect' each have at most two Nascent Soul Realm experts! Even if you include the three neutral forces, there are only five!"

"Even if I've taken the maximum estimate of the 'Mingxin Temple' alliance's strength! Seven Nascent Soul Realm experts!"

"Can seven of you defeat us?"

"Senior Saintly Sound and Senior Flying Cloud, they can both hold their own against one of them!"

"The Two Immortals of the Azure Waves possess boundless magical power. Even if the two seniors join forces, they can hold off one person!"

"Ancestor, with your cultivation level, I think you could easily take on five people at once! How could the remaining three possibly be a match for us?"

"My analysis still suggests that they have the greatest strength! In reality, with the outcome still undecided, it's impossible for the three neutral forces to participate in our great battle against 'Mingxin Temple'!"

"Since the opponent doesn't have the will to win, they naturally won't choose to fight a decisive battle!"

"My thinking is that they still want to fight us! To test our strength and prepare for the final battle!"

Li Yunjing thought for a moment and then shared his analysis.

"Hahaha!"

After listening to Li Yunjing's analysis, the Five Elements Master was very pleased. "Very good! You have a great idea!"

The Five Elements Immortal then looked at everyone present and said, "Yun Jing's analysis may not be the truth! However, with me, Fairy Shengyin, Immortal Feiyun, and Immortal Bibo here, I believe the other side cannot do anything to us!"

Seeing the Five Elements True Man's calm and composed demeanor, the others were reassured and began to flatter the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect" and the Five Elements True Man.

At the same time, all these important figures memorized Li Yunjing's appearance.

It seems that this true disciple of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" has an extremely prominent status and cannot be treated as an ordinary true disciple!
After a while of discussion, a Buddhist chant suddenly rang out from outside "Shenxiao Island": "Amitabha! This humble monk, Fazheng, has come to pay my respects to all fellow practitioners!"

Upon hearing that the other party had arrived, the Five Elements Master laughed and stood up: "Perfect timing! Fellow Daoists, let's go out and take a look together!"

The Five Elements Immortal led everyone out of the main hall, soared into the air, and condensed into a cloud of auspicious five colors.

All the Nascent Soul Realm and Golden Core Realm experts, along with some Foundation Establishment Realm experts, arrived above the sea to confront the people from Mingxin Temple.

Li Yunjing stood at the back of the crowd. Looking ahead, he saw an old monk wearing a golden robe standing on a cloud of auspicious gold.

The old monk had a kind face, deep eyes, and a faint Buddhist light flowing around him.

This person must be the Nascent Soul Realm Elder, Zen Master Fazheng, from Mingxin Temple.

Behind him were some gray-clad men, yellow-robed monks, and black-clad demonic cultivators.

Clearly, the reason Mingxin Temple gathered so many people this time was not for a decisive battle.

These people are all experts from "Mingxin Temple", "Yuhun Sect" and "Ascetic Sect", and they came here to give "Shenxiao Dao Sect" a warning.

“Master Fazheng, why are you causing trouble in my East China Sea instead of receiving blessings at Mingxin Temple?”

The Five Elements Immortal bowed respectfully, but his words were anything but polite.

Buddhism and Taoism cannot coexist!
The consistent practice of the "Shenxiao Daozong" towards Buddhist disciples is to kill them without mercy and execute them immediately!

However, since everyone here is a highly skilled cultivator, we should still maintain a certain level of decorum. We can't just start a fight with our enemies without saying a word the moment we meet, can we?

Master Fazheng seemed oblivious to the hostility in the words of the Five Elements True Man, maintaining his kind and benevolent demeanor. He clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect and said, “Fellow Daoist Five Elements, you are mistaken! The East Sea does not belong to the ‘Shenxiao Dao Sect,’ but to all people under heaven! I have come here because I have heard that the ‘Shenxiao Dao Sect’ intends to slaughter cultivators from all sides in the East Sea! This act is contrary to the harmony of heaven and earth. Out of compassion, Buddha has come to negotiate, hoping that the ‘Shenxiao Dao Sect’ can take a step back and that we can live in peace. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?”

"hehe!"

Hearing the old bald thief's words, Li Yunjing sneered inwardly. The Buddhist sect is still so shameless, letting them play the good guys!

If he weren't unqualified, he would have wanted to yell at the old bald thief and vent his anger.

"Heh heh! You old bald thief, you're always so eloquent and persuasive! Unfortunately, the cultivation world values ​​strength above all else! If you're not strong enough, what good is your silver tongue?"

The Five Elements Master sneered, showing utter disdain for the other party's words.
