Crown Prince Li Chengqian frowned: "Is this true?"
Taoist Zijin smiled and said, "Prince, do you still remember the dragon you first fought against when you used the Zhurong Dharma?"
Li Chengqian nodded: "That dragon caused the loss of about several thousand of the 120,000 soldiers in my formation! It is extremely powerful."
Taoist Zijin said: "This dragon escaped from Baoxiang Kingdom. Over the long years, the monster's strength has not been reduced much! It is all because the Buddhist sect intentionally raised it, and it has been kept alive until now with the lives of Baoxiang Kingdom's slaves."
Crown Prince Li Chengqian was shocked, his eyes filled with shock.
Niu Qing at the side also took a breath of cold air: "This... is this true?"
Taoist Zijin nodded indifferently: "Not only that, the favorite thing of many royal villages and nobles in Baoxiang Country is to make people fight with beasts! There is also a custom of raising ferocious beasts and raising extremely vicious monsters! And this is allowed by Buddhism and highly respected."
Having said this, Taoist Zijin exhaled: "I told you this, whether it is true or not can be judged by yourself! After all, there are many practitioners in the Three Realms who travel to the Tang Dynasty now! If you don't believe it, you can go and ask."
At this point, Taoist Zijin took a step back and said, "Today, I have told you everything that should and should not be said! How you choose has nothing to do with me. Prince, as a fellow Taoist who is in the same boat, I advise you to act with caution. Farewell!"
Taoist Zi Jin shook his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, and strode out of the study!
Niu Qing stared at his back, gritting his teeth and shrinking his neck. He didn't kick over the stool and curse until Taoist Zi Jin left.
"What a Buddhist sect that aided the tyrant. That dragon...ran all over the Tang territory, killing countless ordinary people. And this...is actually a pet kept by the Buddhist sect?"
Li Chengqian was shocked: "What do you mean?"
Niu Qing stared at Li Chengqian. "Your Highness, due to his status, Taoist Zijin cannot make some things clear! But his words have already explained the Buddhist elements. The prince is so indecisive! It really puzzles me."
"You mean, the dragon was not raised by the king of Baoxiang Kingdom, but by the Buddhist sect..."
"Of course it is. If it was raised by the King of Baoxiang Country, it would have been worshipped as a sacred beast long ago! It would have spread far and wide throughout the Three Realms... Why did we only know about this today? It's because they concealed the news and formed an impenetrable wall!"
Li Chengqian suddenly realized that if the king of Baoxiang State could raise such a powerful beast, it must have been known to everyone long ago. Moreover, this beast was so ferocious that even with the power of Zhurong Dharma Image bestowed by the Lord of Heaven and Earth Pawnshop, it would be difficult to contend with it.
Baoxiang Country suppressed this monster with only the power of mortals. Few people would believe it if they told others about it!
"Your Highness, don't wait any longer... Now, we can only find a way out for ourselves. No matter whether you want to promote the Hundred Schools of Thought or not, you must go to this Earthly Book Realm." Niu Qing pulled Crown Prince Li Chengqian's clothes and walked out!
"Niu Qing, this matter is not urgent... I need to report it to my father first!" Li Chengqian was a little worried.
"Prince, aren't you in a hurry? Some of the souls of the ancestors of the human race in the Earth Book Realm are also the ancestors of many powerful people in the Three Realms. Now that our human race has a slight fluctuation in luck, they will definitely come to invite them one by one! If we are a step slower, we will give the opportunity to others."
Crown Prince Li Chengqian thought about it carefully and realized that this was indeed the truth!
He immediately called the military officer on duty in the city, borrowed a piece of paper from a scholar in the house, and wrote a short letter! After handing it to the military officer, he entrusted it to the inner court!
He then stood up on his sword, and took Niu Qing with him. The two of them rode their flying swords and headed straight for the Earth Book Realm!
The night is dark and the moonlight is hazy!
In the Xifan Pool in Chang'an City, although there is no noise here, there are constant sounds of footsteps!
Taoist Zi Jin stood outside the hazy golden light shield, his eyes swept across the pool, and sat cross-legged there, comprehending the various methods of cultivation of the human race.
A breeze blew by, and the Purple Gold Taoist tilted his head. A pleasant bell sound came from beside him! A woman wearing a gorgeous palace robe and barefoot stopped ten meters to the right of the Purple Gold Taoist.
"The Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth has actually done such a big thing! They have opened up a real paradise in the human territory. In this way, I'm afraid that Buddhism will hardly gain any benefit in this battle between the three realms."
Taoist Zijin bowed his head slightly, turned sideways and respectfully clasped his hands together: "I am a servant of the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop, paying my respects to the Moon Star Lord!"
The woman in gorgeous robes glanced at the very respectful Taoist Zi Jin and spoke with a slightly teasing tone.
"Master Zijin, I am very curious about you. You have an extraordinary origin and possess a bloodline that is no less than that of the ancient demon race! Even in the prehistoric times, you must be a child of destiny! Why don't you leave the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth and seek your own practice in the Three Realms? Could it be that... because your companion is controlled by the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, so... you have to be loyal to Zhang Fan?"
Taoist Zijin shuddered, and his face became more respectful: "Xingjun is really good at joking. I am just a purple-gold mouse. If it weren't for the master's mercy, I would have died in the chaotic and brutal misty land. How could I have the good fortune today? As for the companion body that Xingjun mentioned, I don't know anything about it! If Xingjun has time, he can explain it to me."
The curiosity on Taiyin Star Lord's face disappeared, replaced by indifference.
"It seems that you are determined to work for the Heaven and Earth Pawnshop. Do you know that you have become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of many people? You planned to save the human race from suffering, but you didn't know that you were already in danger of saving yourself."
"The Star Lord's teachings are very true, but... in life, there are things you should do and things you shouldn't do! I'm just a fairy, but I unexpectedly have human emotions! Therefore, I really yearn for the words of the sages of the human race. As for the outcome, that's not what I consider."
Taiyin Xingjun shook his head gently: "The spread of Buddhism to the East is an undisputed matter! No matter how powerful your methods are, as long as you are still in the Three Realms, you cannot stop this. Everything you have done is just useless, but seeing that you are so stubborn, I would like to know, if you really gather all the masters of the hundred schools! What will you do?"
Taoist Zi Jin never expected that the insignificant Taoist secret he entrusted to Li Chengqian would actually attract the attention of the Lord of the Moon.
But when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized!
This Taiyin Star Lord is the Queen Jiang of the Shang Dynasty who ascended to heaven and was listed among the immortals.
At the beginning, perhaps this queen also wanted to use the help of various schools of thought to help the human race reach the top of all realms and races!
