The two sages fought for a long time, using all their skills, but they could not determine a winner.
"Brother Dao, please lend me a hand."
Seeing that he could not defeat Tongtian Jiaozhu, Zhunti Daoren knew that continuing the fight would also make it difficult to subdue the other party, so he could only call on Jieyin Daoren to take action.
Upon hearing this, the Guide pointed to the ground beneath his feet, and a golden lotus of merit rose up from there before drifting into the chaos.
"Fellow Daoist! I'm sorry to offend you!"
The guide greeted the Tongtian Sect Leader, then produced a whisk and swung it at the leader.
"Come on then! What am I afraid of?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader sneered, his figure blurred as he dodged the attack with his whisk, and retaliated with a sword strike.
In an instant, the three of them were tumbling and rolling around, fighting each other.
Even though the Tongtian Sect Leader was the Pangu Saint, he ultimately lost the Four Swords of Zhuxian and could not fight two opponents at once.
After all, even if they're at their worst, these two are still Primordial Saints.
Especially the Guide Daoist, whose strength and realm were no less than that of the Tongtian Sect Master. Although he was not good at fighting, he had the assistance of the Zhunti Daoist by his side. The Tongtian Sect Master resisted for a while, but was accidentally brushed onto the back by the Seven Treasures Tree.
The Tongtian Sect Leader grunted, and his body involuntarily staggered.
Seeing this, the Guide Daoist swiftly approached the Tongtian Sect Leader, flicked his whisk, and took the opportunity to send him tumbling.
"Fellow Daoist Tongtian! Admitting defeat now will at least save face!"
The Guide was ultimately compassionate, and seeing that victory was within his grasp, he still gave the Master of Heaven a chance.
However, the Tongtian Sect Leader not only did not appreciate it, but seemed to feel greatly humiliated.
"You insolent fools! Today, I, this humble Taoist priest, will fight you all for the sake of a perfectly round moon!"
As he spoke, he steadied himself and raised his hand to unleash two beams of divine lightning that struck the two of them.
"Boom!"
Divine lightning exploded above their heads, and boundless thunder crashed down.
With a wave of his Azure Lotus Banner, Daoist Zhunti instantly absorbed all the descending lightning.
The guide suddenly produced a bowl in his left hand, which he gently tossed up, thus also stopping the thunder from the sky.
"Since that's the case, then don't blame us for being impolite!"
Zhunti Daoist stepped forward, carrying the Seven Treasures Tree, and once again closed in on Tongtian Jiaozhu. With a flick of the Seven Treasures Tree, he swept towards Tongtian's face.
Upon seeing this, the Guide Daoist sighed inwardly, took his whisk and stepped forward to continue his joint attack with the Zhunti Daoist against the Tongtian Sect Leader.
Despite his refusal to admit defeat, Tongtian Jiaozhu was ultimately unable to fight two opponents at once. He managed to hold out for a few more rounds before being struck on the shoulder by the Guide Daoist with a blessed pestle.
Tongtian Jiaozhu staggered and almost fell, then Zhunti Daoist handed him the Seven Treasures Tree and stuck it between his legs.
The Tongtian Sect Leader was suddenly sent flying out involuntarily.
The Taoist priest caught up and swept his whisk down from the air.
At the critical moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader hurriedly raised the Qingping Sword horizontally, barely managing to block the sword strike.
With a bang.
The Qingping Sword shattered instantly, leaving only a bare hilt in the hands of the Tongtian Sect Leader.
Before he could restore the sword, a golden dharma image with many arms and hands suddenly descended from mid-air, its arms waving in unison to envelop the Tongtian Sect Leader.
"ah……"
Accompanied by a series of ping-pong sounds, the Tongtian Sect Leader's cry of pain also rang out.
A moment later, the Tongtian Sect Leader staggered and broke free from the entanglement of the golden body's dharma image.
By this time, he had been beaten so badly that his head was covered in bumps and his face was covered in bruises.
Even when he was besieged by the Four Saints last time, he had never lost face so badly.
"Ah! Zhunti! Jieyin! You have gone too far in bullying me! Today I will fight you to the death!"
At this moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader's eyes were bloodshot, and he no longer cared about maintaining any saintly demeanor.
"You?! Anyone can talk big, but they have to be able to do it!"
Zhunti Daoist sneered and continued to attack Tongtian Jiaozhu.
"Alas! Why did it have to come to this!"
The Guide Daoist sighed again, stepped forward to stand before the Tongtian Sect Leader, and though he uttered a sigh, he showed no mercy in his attack.
After another dozen or so breaths, the Tongtian Sect Leader finally couldn't take it anymore. He endured a few more blows, broke free from the two's entanglement, and turned to fly away into the depths of chaos.
The two religious leaders exchanged a glance, "Chase!"
Clearly, they would not let the other side off until the Tongtian Sect Leader personally admitted defeat and guaranteed that he would not interfere with the eastward spread of Buddhism.
The three fled, while the other two pursued them, and they entered the depths of chaos.
Seeing this, Laozi sighed and walked up to Hu Le.
"Greetings, fellow Daoist!" He first bowed to Hu Le.
Hu Le returned the greeting.
"This matter must eventually come to a conclusion. I humbly request that you, fellow Daoist, lend a hand in mediating between them," said Laozi.
The Three Pure Ones were, after all, fellow disciples and fellow Pangu, and he did not want to see the Tongtian Sect Leader being humiliated too much by these two from the West.
Of course, he could also save Tongtian by taking action himself.
But he knew very well that even if he helped the Tongtian Sect Leader, the third brother would not appreciate it.
Moreover, he couldn't very well force the Tongtian Sect Leader to admit defeat.
At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun also walked to the side. Hearing that Taishang Laojun had asked Hu Le to take action, he was not too surprised.
As a direct descendant of Pangu, it was one thing for him to bully Tongtian himself, but he also didn't want to see Tongtian being bullied too badly by those two...
"Well... fine. Since you've invited me, I'll make an exception and help you this once."
He was also Pangu, and he didn't want to see Tongtian, who was also Pangu, being humiliated.
Moreover, the Tongtian Sect Leader had a fairly good relationship with him in the past, so it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to lend him a hand today.
Having said that, he picked up his bamboo staff and headed into the depths of the chaos. With a few flashes, he caught up with the three of them.
At this time, the two cult leaders were still ganging up on Tongtian Cult Leader.
"Alright! Fellow Daoists, please stop."
Hu Le was surrounded by immortal light, which dissipated the surging energy ripples. He walked up to the three of them and called for them to stop.
Upon hearing this, Daoist Zhunti and Daoist Jieyin gave him face and immediately withdrew to the side.
Although they stopped, the Tongtian Sect Leader was no longer so obedient.
He had never suffered such a great loss in his life.
He immediately pounced on the two of them like a mad tiger, relentlessly attacking them.
"Enough!"
Hu Le stretched out his bamboo cane and blocked Tongtian Jiaozhu's way.
The Tongtian Sect Leader suddenly turned his head, his crimson eyes fixed on Hu Le.
"Brother Dao! Are you also here to make things difficult for me?!"
Hu Le frowned slightly and said indifferently, "Fellow Daoist! You should know that if you are not as skilled as others, you should accept the consequences of your bet. You and I are ultimately Primordial Saints. If we make too much of a mess, how will we have the face to continue to lead our great sect in the future!"
"call……"
The Tongtian Sect Leader, being of the Hunyuan Wuji realm, quickly suppressed his anger, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and a flash of clear light appeared on his body, instantly erasing the wounds on his face.
He finally regained the composure befitting a saint.
"Brother Dao! What teachings do you have?" Tongtian Jiaozhu asked in a deep voice.
Hu Le said calmly, "Now that you have lost this time, you should honestly admit defeat. You should not interfere with the eastward spread of Buddhism."
The Tongtian Sect Leader gritted his teeth, coldly glanced at Jieyin and Zhunti, and finally nodded heavily...
