Primordial Era: I rule the great sect and command all immortals.

As soon as this thought arose, the Tongtian Sect Leader recalled the scenes of how Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun had bullied him.

This infuriated the Tongtian Sect Leader!

"Never mind! Let's take a look for now!"

In the end, the Tongtian Sect Leader did not choose to take action, but rather decided to observe the situation.

Perhaps the Human Sect and the Chan Sect are capable of stopping the army of the "Witch-Buddha-Demon Alliance"!

Unbeknownst to him, the Tongtian Sect Leader had developed a bias in his heart, still hoping that the two sects could stabilize the situation.

Within the "Boundless Chaos Heaven," the Chaos Dao Lord no longer had the inclination to comprehend the Great Dao.

How could he not pay attention to such a grand event?

Furthermore, the Chaos Dao Lord intervened, concealing the secrets of the Ming Dynasty and making it impossible for anyone to predict the court's movements.

Inside the "Nuwa Palace," the sage Nuwa breathed a long sigh of relief; it was good news.

As long as they don't attack her demonic sect!

Similarly, several important figures from the "Witch-Buddha-Demon Alliance" were also observing the movements in the Immortal Realm.

The Buddha Mother Zhunti immediately dispatched her good-corpse Bodhi Patriarch to the Eastern Continent to deal with any impulsive actions of the two saints after the failure of the Human Sect and the Chan Sect.

His true form, however, kept a close watch on the Eastern Continent, ensuring the smooth progress and victory of this great battle.

In the Western Paradise, Amitabha Buddha no longer meditates in seclusion. This foremost Buddhist master keeps a close eye on the "Great Crimson Heaven." As soon as Lao Tzu has any intention of descending to the mortal realm, he will immediately intervene and stop him in the chaos.

With the same arrangement, Houtu Niangniang set her sights on Yuanshi Tianzun of "Miluotian".

To prevent the two sages of the Xuanmen sect from becoming desperate and resorting to drastic measures.

All the important figures turned their attention to the Eastern Continent, awaiting the outbreak of this decisive battle.

Mencius also received a telepathic message from the Chaos Dao Lord, indicating that some things could proceed as planned.

Mencius dared not delay and immediately convened a supreme meeting of the Jie Sect, gathering most of the quasi-saints among them.

Apart from those powerful individuals with significant responsibilities who guard the four realms, all those from the Jie Sect who could come were present.

Soon, orders were passed down from the highest council of the Jie Sect.

Layer upon layer, from Grand Luo Golden Immortal to Taiyi Golden Immortal, Golden Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, and Celestial Immortal, it eventually reached the realms below Immortal.

The entire Jie Sect was like a roaring war machine, starting to heat up.

Meanwhile, in the Southern Continent, in the capital of the Great Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang finally received good news.

After the Jie Sect issued its order, Liu Bowen immediately contacted Zhu Yuanzhang and discussed the reorganization of the army in preparation for crossing the sea to attack Xiniu Hezhou.

"real?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed, and even somewhat incredulous.

Over the years, he had tried several times to send troops to conquer the other three continents, but he was always stopped by the Jie Sect.

This made him extremely unhappy.

Becoming a human emperor like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors was Zhu Yuanzhang's lifelong pursuit, as it meant a reputation that would last for eternity and the path to immortality that the Three Sovereigns and Six Emperors had followed!

Now, there's finally news from the Jie Sect.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang not be pleased that he was allowed to conquer the three continents and the four seas?

"Of course! Your Majesty, we didn't act before because we didn't have the right opportunity! Now, a tremendous war has broken out in the Eastern Continent, with countless immortals and gods involved, and most of the Buddhists have also rushed there."

Mentioning this matter, Liu Bowen felt a pang of sympathy. Suppressing his shock, he said, "Currently, Xiniu Hezhou is vulnerable, making it the best time to prepare for a major war."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said "Good!" three times in succession, then looked at Liu Bowen and said with a smile, "This matter will require your full assistance, my dear minister!"

"Your humble servant is a subject of the Great Ming Dynasty, and naturally should serve the Great Ming with utmost loyalty!"

Liu Bowen chuckled.

Just as a major war was about to break out in Dongsheng Shenzhou, the Ming Empire and the Jie Sect began to make preparations.

In the South China Sea and the Western Sea, on some islands belonging to the Jie Sect, more Jie Sect disciples appeared.

On the sea route, absolute safety must be ensured.

Meanwhile, the Jie Sect masters from the Southern Continent had already joined the army of the Ming Empire and were converging on the port closest to the west.

Meanwhile, in the Demon Realm, the Thirty-Three Heavens also mobilized in advance, ready to dispatch a large army at any time to descend upon the Immortal Realm and conquer Xiniu Hezhou.

Apart from the Nine Netherworld, where they are still stabilizing the Netherworld, the Jie Sect has begun preparations for all the forces it can mobilize.

The only difference is the level of mobilization.

In this atmosphere, the preparations for Dongsheng Shenzhou were finally complete.

After a continuous stream of troops set out from Shouyang Mountain, they formed a series of interconnected formations, surrounding Dongkunlun.

"Boom!"

Deep within the eastern Kunlun Mountains, the power of immortality erupted, terrifying and overwhelming, like a vast ocean surging back, enveloping the entire Kunlun Mountains in white and red immortal light.

Outside Kunlun Mountain, within a radius of 100,000 miles, all living beings are under immense pressure. Even for the members of the "Witch-Buddha-Demon Alliance," every step they take in the void is as difficult as ascending to the Chaos World.

Faced with the siege of the "Witch-Buddha-Demon Alliance", both the Human Sect and the Chan Sect are fully prepared.

This sacred mountain is extremely familiar to both the Renjiao and Chanjiao sects.

Especially the elderly.

In recent years, the remaining members of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, along with Jiang Ziya and others from the Kunlun School, have been teaching the Human Sect and various branches of the Chan Sect, familiarizing themselves with every plant and tree on the mountain.

The Chan Sect's formation in the mountains is the "Mysterious Gate Capital Heavenly Nine Palaces Immortal Formation," which contains the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, including the One Yuan, Two Forms, Three Powers, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Six Harmonies, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams, and Nine Palaces.

This formation, combining offense and defense, is the main protective formation of "East Kunlun".

The other formation is naturally the "Two Elements Dust Formation" that Lao Tzu once set up. However, this formation is more powerful than those of the major Taoist temples.

There is a genuine "Primordial Qi Supreme Purity Divine Talisman" suppressing it, which can unleash a portion of the power of a saint!

As for the formation set up by the sage Tongtian Jiaozhu of the Jie Sect?

Excuse me!

After the Three Pure Ones separated, Yuanshi Tianzun dismantled all the formations set up by Tongtian Jiaozhu not long afterward.

He couldn't stand the existence of the Jie Sect on the mountain.

As a result, the defensive strength of Kunlun Mountain has been reduced by one-third.

This secret was naturally unknown to the members of the "Witch-Buddha-Demon Alliance," who continued to prepare to deal with the three heaven-defying formations.

"How magnificent! I never imagined that one day I, a humble Taoist, would have the chance to conquer Mount Kunlun!"

In the void, the Styx Ancestor stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the "Kunlun Mountain" that was unleashing its divine power, and repeatedly praised it.

A terrifying power spread from within the Kunlun Mountains.

A violent storm formed in the void.

Even the void itself was ripped open with cracks—these are spatial rifts!

With the combined forces of 30 million from the Human Sect and the Chan Sect activating the formation, even the void of the Earthly Immortal Realm could not withstand such power and began to crack.

Even the power of the laws of heaven and earth cannot eliminate these cracks.

This power even possesses the terrifying power of primordial chaos energy within the primordial chaos, sweeping across and destroying everything.

The five great masters—Ancestor Styx, Chi You, Xing Tian, ​​Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, and Sandalwood Merit Buddha—stood steadily in the void, facing the storm.

"Yes! Who would have imagined such a day would come?"

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva's expression was complex. This was the place where his dream began, and today, he would personally take action to destroy everything that had once been there.

"Heh heh! What's the use of saying all this? We're going to have to fight eventually! Let's see who among the Witch Clan and the Three Pure Ones is the true descendant of Pangu!"

Chi You sneered, his expression looking down on Mount Kunlun, exuding an air of domineering arrogance.

"Today, we will flatten Mount Kunlun! We will exterminate both the Human and Chan schools of Buddhism!"

Xing Tian was filled with fighting spirit. As the number one war god of the Wu tribe thought about the upcoming war, his huge, powerful body trembled slightly.

This is not fear!

It was excitement, the excitement of longing for a peak battle.

Let's begin!

Chi You looked at "Mount Kunlun" and said coldly.

The voice was deep, yet it resonated throughout the heavens and earth.

At this moment, almost all the great supernatural beings and golden immortals in the Nine Netherworld, the Immortal Realm, the Thirty-Three Heavens, and the Demon Realm turned their gazes toward the direction of "Mount Kunlun".

In terms of numbers, this great battle was far less than the war between the Lich and the Demon races, but in terms of quality, it far surpassed the peak Lich and Demon races.

The two sides have gathered as many as two hundred powerful individuals.

During the "Lich Cataclysm" era, fewer than twenty powerful beings from both sides participated.

The difference in quantity is already tenfold!

Furthermore, it includes top-tier beings such as Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.

Even if Donghuang Taiyi were reborn, he might not be a match for this Bodhisattva, even if Donghuang Taiyi had the "Donghuang Bell" in his hand!

Who could ignore such an epic battle?

"Set up the formation!"

Behind the five powerful figures, Hou Yi's voice resounded.

The entire army of the Wu tribe, numbering in the tens of millions, received the order and moved out in unison.

With a "hum," the void trembled violently, and suddenly, black banners flew out from some of the great shamans.

These black banners emerged from the void and descended, each connected by a black chain of order, like an eternal cage shrouding the outer perimeter of "Kunlun Mountain".

This is the "Soul-Devouring Banner" that the Witch Clan refined back then. Some of the stock was collected by the Witch Clan, changed its form, and rearranged.

Once the formation was complete, the area outside Kunlun Mountain was pitch black, terrifying beyond measure, and impossible to see through.

Only the "Kunlun Divine Mountain" still radiates white and red divine light, permeating the four realms and six paths.

Infinite divine power seemed poised to bring light back to the world.

"Hehe! The Witch Clan seems to be quite well-prepared."

Guang Chengzi's expression was somewhat grave, but he remained fearless and spoke in a hoarse voice.

As far as the eye could see, everything was shrouded in darkness. Even someone like him could not see through the scenery outside the mountain. It seemed that the world was shrouded in endless darkness.

Meanwhile, the other powerful figures from the Human Sect and the Chan Sect wore solemn expressions, remaining silent and wary as they awaited the impending battle.

"Offering sacrifices to countless ghosts and gods!"

Hou Yi's voice rang out once again.

"Boom!"

As Hou Yi finished speaking, the great formation formed by the "Soul-Devouring Banner" suddenly changed, causing the sky to collapse and the earth to crack, with ghosts wailing and gods howling.

Countless enormous demons flew out from the banner, forming a ghostly realm in the void.

Kunlun Mountain is like a place plunged into the apocalypse, where apart from ghosts, there is only darkness, and everything seems to be swallowed up by the darkness.

"Hehehe..."

Countless ghosts and spirits let out sinister laughter, stirring up endless storms that swept towards "Mount Kunlun"!

This is no ordinary storm, but a spatial storm formed by the convergence of spatial laws.

Pieces of emptiness were shattered and torn apart by the wind god.

Even those with great supernatural powers cannot stop this kind of storm.

However, when the storm swept over Kunlun Mountain, the immortal power there erupted completely, forming boundless immortal light that swept everything away.

The terrifying spatial storm could not penetrate into the interior of "Kunlun Mountain".

"Snap!"

Within the black spatial storm, cracking sounds could be heard intermittently, and spatial rifts were widening, even tearing the dimensional space-time deep within them apart.

"What a powerful evil wind!"

At this sight, Guang Chengzi and the others' pupils constricted.

Back then, in the Kunlun Mountains, they witnessed that epic battle through the "Water Mirror Technique".

I vaguely remembered the "Soul-Devouring Banner," but its brilliance was completely overshadowed by the "Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation" and the "Zhou Tian Star Formation," and it was not valued by anyone.

I never expected that today's battle would truly make me realize the power of this banner.

It can indeed be called a powerful weapon.

The celestial light is fighting against the spatial storm!

For a time, it seemed that neither side could do anything about the other.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a tremendous power erupted from the space shrouded by the "Soul-Devouring Banner," crashing towards "Mount Kunlun."

The beams of black light converged to form a massive beam, carrying the power to penetrate everything, and hurtled rapidly toward Kunlun Mountain.

"Activate the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Array!"

The voice of Emperor Donghua, Lü Dongbin, resounded.

At this moment, the Human Teachings Formation, as the first line of defense of "Kunlun Mountain", was preparing to meet the enemy's offensive.

With the "Primordial Qi Supreme Purity Divine Talisman" suppressing it, the "Two Elements Micro Dust Array" immediately unleashed its strongest power.

The six gates of life, death, illusion, and obscurity open.

Entering the gate of life, there may still be a chance of survival.

If one falls into the "death gate," one faces extreme danger and risks death.

The illusionary gate can create various illusory scenes, confusing people and making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

The "Extermination of a Clan" technique possesses immense destructive power and can severely damage those who enter.

The dark and gloomy atmosphere created by the dark gate can affect the mind and judgment of those who enter.

The Mingmen (a type of martial arts school) may present some seemingly clear paths or phenomena, but they may also hide many traps and dangers.

The six gates are interconnected and can be switched and changed at any time, making the internal environment of the formation complex and unpredictable. (End of Chapter)
