Chapter 723: 721. Breaking Through the Natural Moat (1)
Translator: 549690339
The Buddhist light of the Heavenly Buddha refined the Dark Netherworld Tower. Although it could not truly make it his own, it had already made some progress and could successfully open it and allow it to enter.
Ming Zun did not interfere with this. Instead, he cooperated with the Heavenly Buddha to suppress the Dark Sky Netherworld Tower.
He would not allow the pagoda to fall into the hands of the Heavenly Buddha, but he would not destroy it so early.
At the very least, he had to first get rid of Chen Luoyang, who had occupied the Dark Mysterious Underworld Pagoda, before it was time for the problem between the two of them.
That young man with the surname Chen had pretended to be a Demon Venerable and planned such a big plan. He could temporarily contend with the Martial God Realm when he was in the Martial Honor Realm. Now, he was even charging directly towards the Martial God Realm.
If he succeeded, with the Dark Netherworld Tower in his hands, things would definitely be chaotic.
Ming Zun would not engage in internal strife before he succeeded.
Of course, he did not completely let down his guard against the Heavenly Buddha.
While staring at the Heavenly Buddha, he helped the other party suppress the resistance of the Dark Netherworld Tower.
When the Heavenly Buddha finally broke through the Dark Netherworld Tower and opened it, a palm suddenly reached out!
The palm seemed to pass through the endless void and arrived in front of the Heavenly Buddha.
The Heavenly Buddha’s Pure Land of the Buddhist Kingdom was used to refine the Dark Netherworld Pagoda, and he was caught off guard. His palm instantly slapped his chest.
The golden alms bowl was blocked by the jade ruyi.
As the five qi circulated, his palm slapped a deep palm print on the Buddha’s golden body!
Even though thousands of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas chanted sutras together and countless heavenly flowers fell to support their defense, they were still blocked by the clear qi, white qi, purple qi, yin and yang qi, and black and yellow qi.
The Heavenly Buddha grunted and took a solid hit.
The Buddha’s golden body that was as pure as glass instantly became blurry and could not recover for a long time.
Ming Zun was also shocked and immediately swung his sword forward.
As the Taiji Diagram spun, a figure walked out of the Dark Netherworld Tower and blocked Ming Zun’s sword.
This was Daolord Qingwei.
The sudden palm strike sent the Heavenly Buddha stumbling back, shocking Ming Zun.
After the Reunion Ceremony, they had a secret plan.
The Dao Lord had used Chen Luoyang’s help to win the Demon Venerable’s trust and then betrayed him today, inflicting heavy injuries on the Demon Venerable.
Everything was going smoothly, as planned, but how could the Heavenly Buddha and Ming Zun trust the Lord of Dao completely?
Seeing that the other party was held back by the Heavenly Phoenix, that was naturally the best outcome.
If Daolords were to join them in the pursuit of the Darksky Netherworld Tower, they would naturally be on guard against each other.
However, they had chased the Dark Netherworld Tower for such a long time and were far away from the battle between the Daolord and the Heavenly Phoenix. Even if the Daolord had rushed over, it would have taken some time for him to do so. Yet, he was unexpectedly in the Dark Netherworld Tower?
Putting aside how she had shaken off the Heavenly Phoenix and how Rulai had rushed here, the key was how she had hidden herself from the two of them and entered the Dark Netherworld Tower first?
Ming Zun’s pupils contracted slightly. He saw that the Dao Lord was holding a black coffin in his other hand. The black coffin slowly turned into ashes in his hand and disappeared.
Ming Zun knew about this black coffin because it originated from the Yellow Spring World and belonged to the previous Yellow Spring Ruler.
After that, it flowed into the mortal world and landed in Chen Luoyang’s hands.
Ming Zun was already secretly suspicious of Chen Luoyang obtaining this black coffin, but he didn’t expect the black coffin to have such a miraculous effect. It actually brought a Dao Lord over and hid it from his and the Heaven Buddha’s senses.
The Heavenly Buddha was caught off guard and suffered a vicious blow.
In a great battle between Supreme Martial Artists, other than being surrounded and attacked by a large number of enemies, such a situation rarely occurred.
In a one-on-one battle, at the very least, they could retreat and not suffer heavy injuries easily.
However, the Heavenly Buddha suffered a huge loss after being tricked by the Dao Lord.
The Daolord had planned this attack for a long time, and he had naturally used all his strength.
The palm print on the Heavenly Buddha’s chest was like a sculpture, showing no signs of recovery.
“Qingwei, what can you get?” The Heavenly Buddha’s voice remained unchanged, but his body remained motionless in the void. The pure land of the Buddhist Kingdom seemed to be broken.”Since you can enter the pagoda, you can directly take it.”
Dao Lord waved his jade scepter to block Ming Zun’s Underworld Sword. “”I can get a lot.”
“Yu Qingniu chose Qingwei and Red Dust.” “But do you believe in Chen Luoyang?” Ming Zun suddenly asked.
“I do,” the Daolord replied calmly.”But it doesn’t matter if he breaks his promise. I still have other gains.”
The light in the Heavenly Buddha’s eyes fluctuated.
“Garrosh, can you feel it? Dao Lord and Ming Zun exchanged another move. He dodged Ming Zun’s sword force and no longer blocked Ming Zun. Instead, he approached the Heavenly Buddha.
The Heavenly Buddha Garrosh finally moved. He raised the golden alms bowl and faced the Daolord.”So you still want the Saha World.”
“Yes, I am.” The Taoist Lord waved the jade Ruyi of tranquility and struck the Heavenly Buddha head-on. The Heavenly Buddha used the golden alms bowl to barely parry it.
Ming Zun stared at the Daolord, his gaze flickering.
The top figures of the Qingwei Realm’s Dao Sect and the three divine monks of the Saha Realm’s Buddhist Sect had come with Daolords and Heavenly Buddhas.
Under normal circumstances, Abbot Xuantong and the others didn’t need to worry about the Saha World. Even if something happened to the Saha World, they could rush back in time.
However, the big shots of the Taoist Faction were obstructing them now.
Without Yu Qingniu, Daoist Miao Sheng, and the other top experts of Dao Sect, the other Martial Honors of Dao Sect in Qingwei Realm would not be able to take down Saha World. There were countless experts in Saha World.
Moreover, even if Daoist Miao Sheng and the others went to the Heavenly Buddha’s residence, they would not be able to break through it.
However, the Daolord had other helpers.
The Heavenly Buddha’s eyes were observing the movements of his Saha World. He could see a young girl walking in the Saha World.
Xu Ruotong, the descendant of the Human Emperor, the top Martial Honor, and the former Empress of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in the Mortal World.
Thanks to Dao Lord’s help, Xu Ruotong had recovered from her injuries in Qingwei Realm and resolved her God Tribulation. She had returned to her former glory and improved further, only a step away from the Martial God Realm.
Now, she was here to return the favor and sweep through the Saha World.
The other experts of Qingwei Realm were naturally relaxed.
With the Human Emperor Token in hand, the higher her cultivation, the more power she could unleash. She began to dispel the influence of the Buddhas and let the people of Saha World get rid of their original beliefs.
Qingwei and Saha Realms often had conflicts and were close to enemies. Since ancient times, they had fought many times.
If all the Buddhist disciples were to immediately convert to the Dao Sect, the resistance would be extremely strong and many would die together.
However, with a Renhuang in the middle, the situation became much better.
The reason why the Dao Lord entrusted Xu Ruotong to come here was because he had taken all these into consideration, and Xu Ruotong herself would benefit from this.
The Heavenly Buddha could clearly see all of this, but he couldn’t go back immediately.
He had been heavily injured by the Daolord, and if he were to flee now, he might be pursued by the Daolord and suffer even more injuries.
Dao Lord’s current stance was clear that he wanted to take down the Heaven Chasing Buddha all the way back to Saha World.
As for leaving Ming Zun and the Dark Sky Netherworld Tower behind, she did not seem to be worried.
As for Ming Zun, he did not immediately try to refine the Dark Netherworld Tower like the Heavenly Buddha did earlier.
He stared at the Daolord expressionlessly.
The Heavenly Buddha did not escape either. Instead, he said to Ming Zun,”Almsgiver Lu, please lend a helping hand.”
Senior Brother Lu, do you want to take a risk? ” “Although this pagoda specializes in restraining the Netherworld God, it seems to be fine, Senior Brother,” the Dao Lord said calmly.
The reason why she took the Heavenly Buddha first was to prevent him from returning to the Saha World. On the other hand, she knew that it was far more difficult for Ming Zun to refine the Dark Nether Pagoda than the other Supremacies.
It was already extremely rare for Mingzun Lu Feng to be able to fight against this pagoda that could unleash greater power against the Netherworld Divine Energy.
Because he was also a Netherworld God.
Netherworld God Kong Ming.
He was the only one who could move openly and was recognized by the Supremes of the other realms.
His strength was only a secondary reason.
The stronger the Netherworld God, the more fearful the other Supremes would be, and the more they would gang up on him.
Only Lu Feng, Kong Ming, was an exception.
Because he had betrayed the other Netherworld Gods.
Because of him, there was more than one Netherworld God who had already become powerful. They had no choice but to be reborn separately and start anew.
As for Ming Zun Lu Feng, or Netherworld God Kong Ming, he was the one who was the strictest to the other Netherworld Gods.
Over the years, Ming Zun had been improving himself, and the results were gratifying. Now, he dared to fight head-on against the Mysterious Dark Netherworld Tower.
However, that was all.
It was much more difficult for him to refine this pagoda than for other Supremes.
And he would not allow this pagoda to fall into the hands of the other Supremes.
It should be said that he wanted to find a way to destroy this pagoda and not let it continue to exist.
But now, he might not have that much time.
Chen Luoyang was currently in the pagoda, trying to break through to the Martial God Realm.
At the same time that the Dao Lord severely injured the Heaven Buddha, the Divine Tribulation in Chen Luoyang’s body finally descended.
The powerful force from the inside seemed to want to turn him into ashes.
This feeling was similar to when he helped Ye Tianmo share the Divine Tribulation in the Battle of Sunset Mountain in the Red Dust World, but it was countless times more intense.
He was far stronger than Ye Tianmo.
And his Divine Tribulation was similarly far stronger than the other party’s.
Even if he had the experience of dispelling Ye Tian’s Demon God Tribulation, it was still a drop in the ocean.
However, Chen Luoyang’s expression was calm and indifferent.
He had accumulated enough, and everything would flow naturally. He only needed some time and a process to truly cross that heavenly chasm.
In the Netherworld Mysterious Sky Pagoda, Chen Luoyang’s entire body was shrouded in a hazy mist. A mysterious radiance emerged from the mist and gradually enveloped his entire body.
Outside the pagoda, Ming Zun’s Underworld Sword slashed down. The pagoda shook, but it was not damaged.
Ming Zun was expressionless. His hand that was holding the sword was steady as he slashed down repeatedly.
He was waiting.
Waiting for Tianfeng.
The Dao Lord had left the Heavenly Phoenix behind and rushed here to help Chen Luoyang out of his predicament while plotting against the Heavenly Buddha. The Heavenly Phoenix definitely wouldn’t let the matter rest and would chase after him.
As the Netherworld God with the highest cultivation level, Ming Zun also had a strong sense of the other Netherworld Gods.
He was certain that the ‘mystic corpse’ was still in the hands of the Daolord and that he hadn’t given it to the Heavenly Phoenix.
Then the Heavenly Phoenix would definitely chase after them.
As expected, the crisp phoenix cry sounded in the void again.
As expected, the Heavenly Phoenix arrived and pounced towards the Daolord.
The Heavenly Buddha was freed.
However, at this moment, the Dark Netherworld Tower suddenly stopped.
A door on the pagoda opened by itself.
Chen Luoyang walked out.
