Since Master Zhunti was not being polite, then Master Tongtian felt there was even less reason for him to be polite.
"You Western religions want Buddhism to spread eastward? Hahaha... But with me here, that's nothing but wishful thinking!"
Upon hearing this, Daoist Zhunti and Daoist Jieyin exchanged a glance and couldn't help but frown.
With such a cult leader lurking nearby, determined to cause trouble, the two of them were genuinely worried that it would ruin their plans.
Laozi silently chanted "Infinite Heavenly Venerable" in his heart.
Yuanshi Tianzun chuckled to himself, "Tongtian! Well done!"
Come to think of it, if it weren't for the karmic debt he had incurred and the promise he had made, how could he have agreed to this so easily?
It should be noted that among all the religions in the East today, his Chan Sect is the most powerful.
Once Buddhism spread to the East, his teachings would inevitably be the most impacted.
Given this, how could he possibly be willing? He would rather the Tongtian Sect Leader interfere and ruin Jieyin and Zhunti's good deed.
Hu Le remained silent. Since he had decided to stay out of it, he naturally wouldn't interfere in their feud. Did they expect him to persuade the Tongtian Sect Leader?
Even if he did have the ability, why would he take action for the sake of the Western Religion?
"Tongtian! I'm warning you, if you dare to ruin the important affairs of my sect, I will never forgive you!" Zhunti Daoist said angrily.
"Hmph! You won't let me off the hook? Hahaha... I'll be even more unforgiving! We'll see how things unfold in the future, and we'll see if this humble Taoist priest will actually do it!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader uttered a harsh remark, then picked up the Qingping Sword and prepared to leave.
He came here merely to give a notification, lest these individuals feel that he was launching an unannounced attack and bullying the weak when he makes his move in the future.
"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, please wait!"
The guide finally spoke.
The Master of the Heavens immediately turned around and said coldly, "What? What do you have to say now?"
The pained expression on the Guide's face became even clearer. He put his hands together in a gesture of respect and said, "I hope you will show mercy, fellow Daoist, and not ruin the transmission of my teachings."
"Haha... Jieyin, no matter what you say to me today, you will not be able to shake my will."
As long as I remain in this desolate land, you will never have a good life!
The Master of Heaven sneered.
Originally, according to the original timeline, after the Investiture of the Gods ended, with the intervention of Hongjun Daoist, it would have been easy to bring Tongtian Jiaozhu back to Zixiao Palace and imprison him.
At that time, no matter how ruthless the Tongtian Sect Leader was, he would not be able to interfere with the eastward transmission of Buddhism.
Unfortunately, Hongjun Daoren was suppressed by them, which left Tongtian Jiaozhu unrestrained, able to keep a watchful eye on things and act whenever he wanted.
As a result, the saints who had sworn enmity with him could no longer expect to live in peace.
"you……"
“Tongtian! The eastward transmission of Buddhism is the will of Heaven. Do you intend to go against the will of Heaven?” The Guide Daoist frowned deeply.
Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader scoffed disdainfully: "Heavenly Mandate?! Heh... We are beings of Hunyuan Wuji, and this so-called Heavenly Mandate is nothing but a plaything for us. You actually want to use it to suppress me? It's utterly laughable."
If it were Hongjun Daoren in charge of the Heavenly Dao, Tongtian Jiaozhu would never have dared to say such a thing.
But Hongjun is no longer here; these saints once even shattered the Heavenly Dao.
It would be a miracle if the Heavenly Dao could even intimidate the Tongtian Sect Leader...
Upon seeing this, Hu Le couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly.
well!
All the mistakes are Hongjun Daoist's fault!
If he hadn't insisted on bestowing the Crimson Pill, intending to use it to completely control the life and death of the Three Pure Ones, it would have provoked the three to launch an angry attack, joining forces with the other saints to suppress him within the Chaos Purple Cloud Palace.
Otherwise, with him residing high above the Thirty-Three Heavens, in charge of the Heavenly Dao, and suppressing all the saints, the masses would still have to submit to the will of Heaven.
The Heavenly Dao now has little deterrent effect on the saints.
Just now, after several sages discussed the matter, they reached a consensus, and the future has already begun to unfold accordingly.
The group of people secretly agreed on the date without consulting the Tongtian Sect Leader, so how could he possibly accept it...?
Seeing that Tongtian bluntly denigrated the Heavenly Dao as if it were worthless, Zhunti Daoist coldly shouted: "Tongtian! How dare you be so arrogant!"
It seems you still haven't learned from the lessons of the last Investiture of the Gods!
"I hereby warn you, if you dare to ruin my sect's plans in the future, then don't blame us for being ruthless and completely annihilating your Jie Sect, leaving you with no hope of ever being able to rise again."
"Good! Good! Good! If you have the ability, then bring it on. If you dare to destroy my Jie Sect, then your Buddhism need not remain in the world."
The Master of Heaven sneered.
Still trying to threaten him?
It's like a dream.
His Jie Sect has not made any progress to date, and even if it is destroyed again, he will not feel bad.
Buddhism is currently at its zenith, and if it were to be destroyed, these two Western powers would probably be so angry they'd vomit blood.
He simply didn't believe that Buddhism would dare to perish together with his Jie Sect.
Besides, if the other side really dares to destroy his Jie Sect again, then he's ready to go all out. At worst, he can just recreate the earth, fire, water, and wind elements and start another era...
"Tongtian! You are utterly unreasonable! If you continue to act in this way, it won't be long before you fall into the demonic path!"
Zhunti Daoist's face was extremely ugly.
Today, Buddhism is like jade, while the Jie Sect is like tile.
Why would he use his own jade artifacts to clash with the other party's roof tiles?
"Hmph! How dare you hypocritical and cunning people tarnish my reputation? You are simply absurd."
"I am a disciple of Pangu, a member of the orthodox Xuanmen sect. What are you all? You are nothing but a bunch of heretics, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly!"
At this point, he looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun, "Yuanshi! Taishang! You two are simply unworthy of being called Pangu. It's one thing to associate with such heretical sects, but to actually join them in their corrupt practices..."
The Master of Heaven shook his head slightly halfway through his sentence, his face full of disappointment.
Upon hearing this, both Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun showed a hint of displeasure on their faces.
The third brother is getting bolder and bolder; he even started lecturing them.
At the same time, they glanced at Hu Le again.
They have three Pangus on their side, so why did the Tongtian Sect Leader deliberately ignore someone and only criticize the two of them?
Isn't this just what people call "treating someone differently based on their status"?
Could it be that Tongtian is afraid of that Xuanxiang?
Alas, I never imagined that even a man as upright and handsome as the Tongtian Sect Leader would begin to degenerate.
If he had been so astute and sensible earlier, how could he have ended up being besieged by all the saints during the Investiture of the Gods?
They were resentful that the Tongtian Sect Leader had singled Hu Le out, but they completely forgot that Hu Le and the Tongtian Sect Leader didn't have much of a grudge between them.
In the past, during the Investiture of the Gods, he did not collude with the saints to make things difficult for the Tongtian Sect Leader.
The destruction of the Jie Sect had little to do with him.
Hu Le was only invited to be a witness this time, so why is the Tongtian Sect Leader taking his anger out on him...?
