The Great Shang Dynasty, border region.
There is a canyon mountain range covered with lush vegetation here.
The mountains rise and fall, shaded by lush trees, with crystal-clear streams flowing gently by, and every now and then you can see two or three mythical beasts leisurely strolling among them.
They might be colorful foxes, gliding lightly through the grass; or mighty white tigers, lying on boulders, dozing and resting; or agile cranes, gracefully flapping their wings and soaring through the sky.
These mythical beasts blend seamlessly with their surrounding natural environment, creating a serene and harmonious scene.
suddenly!
A sudden and strange change occurred within the once peaceful and tranquil canyon—
The space within the canyon distorted violently like ripples on water, as if being kneaded by an invisible giant hand.
The next second.
Two figures appeared out of thin air in the very center of the canyon.
Upon closer inspection.
These two were none other than Gu Xuan and his apprentice Qi Jingchun.
Gu Xuan was dressed in a white robe, his posture was as upright as a pine tree, his temperament was extraordinary and refined, and every move he made exuded an awe-inspiring aura.
Standing next to him was Qi Jingchun, who was relatively younger, but equally handsome with bright, piercing eyes and an air of intelligence and wit.
At this moment, Gu Xuan frowned as he looked around at the completely unfamiliar surroundings. Shouldn't this be Medicine King Valley?!
Damn it!
What use is this teleportation technique to them?!
It should be noted that the Great Teleportation Technique he possesses ranks first in speed among the Three Thousand Great Daos.
When cultivated to the highest level, one can move three thousand great worlds.
Such a powerful supernatural spell was forcibly interrupted during spatial teleportation. With Gu Xuan's knowledge and experience, he would not be foolish enough to think that his Great Teleportation Technique had malfunctioned or made a mistake.
After all, this supernatural ability has been tested in countless real battles and has never failed.
This unexpected situation can only mean one thing—someone is sabotaging us in the dark!
Moreover, this person's strength must be unfathomable, and he is by no means an ordinary person.
Based on the current situation, it can be inferred that the opponent's cultivation level is at least above the fourth level of the Heavenly Fate Realm, and it is even very likely that they have already stepped into the legendary Dao Realm.
Thinking of this.
A mocking expression involuntarily appeared on Gu Xuan's face.
It seems that from the moment they arrived at Yuelu Academy, they may have been set up by someone on the way and ambushed here.
They patiently waited for Gu Xuan to use the Great Teleportation Technique to teleport.
Interrupted suddenly.
In the vast Primordial Immortal Realm, there are very few forces that dare to openly target Gu Xuan.
Upon closer reflection, it seems that only the Western Religion and the Chan Religion are capable of such a thing.
Three days have passed, and the other party has remained patient and has not made a move.
In retrospect, the previous calm was merely the calm before the storm.
Gu Xuan was surprised that this group of people could endure for so long, to the point that he once mistakenly thought they were all cowards hiding their true colors.
Are you finally unable to hold back any longer?
......
Immediately, Gu Xuan withdrew his probing gaze.
A slight upturn at the corners of his mouth revealed a mocking sneer.
Immediately afterwards, he raised his voice and shouted loudly into the empty space in all directions: "Now that we're here, why hide in the shadows like a cowardly thief?"
"Are you guys particularly fond of this kind of sneaky, shady behavior?"
The words had barely left his mouth.
The void above the canyon resembled the surface of a lake where a pebble had been thrown in.
Suddenly, tiny ripples spread out...
In an instant, two figures slowly emerged from the ripples!
They were two middle-aged monks dressed in bright red robes, looking adorned with jewels.
The only difference between these two middle-aged monks and the others was that they had hair, not shiny bald heads.
Furthermore, what's even more peculiar is that the objects held by these two are not the traditional monk's staff.
Instead, he held a whisk with the elegance of a Taoist priest.
Such a bizarre combination gives one a sense of incongruity at first glance.
In fact, the hair on the heads of the two middle-aged monks was not ordinary hair, but fleshy protuberances, which are natural protuberances formed by the bulge of flesh.
Also known as the "ushnisha," this is a noble feature, one of the thirty-two marks of a Buddha, and a symbol of a saint.
As for the whisk, it is a ritual implement called "Bingfu," which is almost identical to that used by Taoist priests.
However, in Zen Buddhism, it symbolizes "impermanence" and "non-self".
By holding a whisk, monks can remind themselves to detach themselves from worldly distractions and maintain inner peace and purity.
The two of them are dressed like this.
Only the high-ranking members of Western religions have such an image.
After all, someone who could interrupt Gu Xuan's Great Shift Technique of the Three Thousand Great Daos was no ordinary person!
“Amitabha! Please do not misunderstand, benefactor. This humble monk is the Vice Leader of the Western Sect, Jieyin, and this is my junior brother, Zhunti. I have taken the liberty of blocking your path today because I believe you have a karmic connection with the Western Sect!”
"Therefore, I have no choice but to do this. Please, benefactor, stay for a moment."
The guide, dressed in a golden kasaya, clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to Gu Xuan below.
His face was full of compassion, as if he could pity and embrace all the suffering in the world.
"hehe……"
After hearing the words of the guide.
Gu Xuan couldn't help but chuckle, a hint of mockery in his voice: "Oh? So, does that mean I should be grateful to you two?"
As he spoke, Gu Xuan's gaze swept back and forth between Jieyin and Zhunti.
He thought it was someone else, but it turned out to be the two vice leaders of the Western Sect, Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist.
Its power is second only to the leader of the Western religion.
An immortal emperor whose strength is comparable to that of the Jade Emperor, and who carries twelve destiny!
Furthermore, he belongs to the old-established Immortal Emperors, unlike the newly promoted Heavenly Mandate Immortal Emperor Haotian, so they cannot be compared.
It is precisely because of this that the three major sects—Western Sect, Chan Sect, and Jie Sect—were able to firmly stand above the Heavenly Court and become the true ruling forces of the Primordial Immortal Realm.
As for why the Heavenly Court was able to become the dominant force in this immortal realm, it was ultimately only because of the influence of the God Realm's Ancestor Hongjun.
After all, if it weren't for the sake of Hongjun Laozu's feelings...
How could the Three Teachings allow the Heavenly Court to become the dominant force on the surface of the Primordial Immortal Realm, ruling over the Nine Realms and Eight Desolations!
So, in secret, the three religions still dominate the Primordial Immortal Realm.
This also shows that the Haotian Immortal Emperor was unwilling to be a mere puppet and wanted to completely seize control of the Primordial Immortal Realm.
At that time, he will be able to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm and become a Dao Realm expert!
