Chapter 437: The foundation of Buddhism: The power of incense

Mount Zhongnan, Quanzhen Sect.

"The Great Sui?! Perfect!"

"I had originally wanted to find an opportunity to go to the Great Sui!"

"Now... it's just on the way!"

Li Li Zhangsheng stood up, looked toward the direction of the Great Sui, his heart stirred, and he said slowly, "Jingnian Zen Temple! Cihang Jingzhai! I am coming!"

"I am coming... to settle the score with you!"

Jingnian Zen Temple.

Master Liaokong, because of Li Li Zhangsheng's order, had returned to the temple.

Because he had Li Li Zhangsheng's instructions, and coupled with the fact that the Heavenly Monk Patriarch still existed, Liaokong did not act immediately, but chose to lurk silently, waiting for Li Li Zhangsheng's arrival.

In the main hall, the Heavenly Monk, the Monk King Faming, Master Xuxuan, Master Liaokong, Master Liaojin, Master Liaowu, and other powerhouses of the Jingnian Zen Temple sat divided.

"Liaokong! You went to the Great Ming to offer birthday wishes to Zhang Zhang Sanfeng! Why did you use the endless incense energy of the Zen Temple?!"

The Heavenly Monk, his gaze calm, looked indifferently at Master Liaokong and asked slowly.

"That's right! Senior Brother Liaokong! Because of this action of yours, my Jingnian Zen Temple has consumed a full hundred years of incense energy!"

The Monk King Faming gave a light laugh and asked with great emotion.

"Amitabha! With the Master above, you should know about the Buddhist alliance at Mount Wutai!"

"At the time, it was Senior Brother Faming who went to Mount Wutai!"

Master Liaokong spoke without haste.

"The Buddhist alliance at Mount Wutai?!"

"Many Buddhist sects agreed to the alliance to join forces to deal with Li Li Zhangsheng! My Jingnian Zen Temple is also a major Buddhist sect, how could we fall behind others?!"

The Monk King Faming's expression did not change, and he spoke unhurriedly.

"Senior Brother Faming's words are very true!"

Master Liaokong nodded and continued, "It is precisely because Senior Brother Faming agreed to the alliance that when I was offering birthday wishes to True Person Zhang, Master Fazhao of the Southern Shaolin, Master Guangren of Mount Wutai, Master Zhu Falan of the White Horse Temple, and Abbess Master Jing Yi of Cihang Jingzhai, using the alliance as a reason, consumed incense energy to invite powerhouses from the Upper World to act..."

Thus, Master Liaokong slowly recounted the matter of going to Mount Wudang.

Once these words were spoken, the Monk King Faming's expression stiffened; he glared at Liaokong and did not speak again.

When it came down to it, it was also because he had agreed to the alliance at Mount Wutai and agreed to consume the foundation of each sect that Master Liaokong had the move to consume a hundred years of the Jingnian Zen Temple's incense energy.

"Powerhouses from the Upper World... acted?!"

Just then, the Heavenly Monk asked suddenly.

"They acted!"

Master Liaokong nodded.

"But... they failed?!"

The Heavenly Monk's voice was inexplicable, his aura lofty.

"The Buddhist powerhouses from the Upper World... failed!"

Master Liaokong said with emotion.

"That Li Li Zhangsheng... is truly that powerful?! Even powerhouses from the Upper World could not convert him?!"

The Heavenly Monk's voice was elusive, as if he were standing above the long sky, with a sense of emptiness and clarity.

"Amitabha!"

"That Li Li Zhangsheng... is incomparably powerful!"

Master Liaokong pressed his palms together, his face changing slightly, his expression incomparably shocked, "I and several others, standing thousands of miles away, were still able to perceive Li Li Zhangsheng's aura, like a god or a sage, transcendent and refined!"

Although many people had seen the matter above the Great Ming Imperial City, they had only seen the fluctuations of Li Li Zhangsheng and the monk Shenxiu fighting; as for what truly happened, few knew.

Coupled with the fact that the Ming Emperor Zhu Zhu Yuanzhang had issued a gag order, very few truly knew what had happened inside.

They only knew that Li Li Zhangsheng had helped the Ming Emperor Zhu Zhu Yuanzhang establish the Immortal Martial Ming; that was all.

"Heh! What like a god or a sage, transcendent and refined?!"

"I don't believe it! It must be because the cultivation base of those Buddhist powerhouses from the Upper World was too low!"

The Monk King Faming gave a cold laugh and said slowly.

Although he had not shattered the void, he knew somewhat that in the Upper World, wanting to come to the Martial World was not that easy.

More importantly, no matter who it was, upon coming to the Martial World, their realm would be suppressed to the Shattered Void Realm, although their true combat power was far beyond the Shattered Void Realm!

Master Liaokong pressed his palms together and did not say more.

He knew that the Monk King Faming only dared to spout such hot air; if he were truly made to face Li Li Zhangsheng, or the Buddhist powerhouses from the Upper World, he probably wouldn't dare to let out a single fart.

Cihang Jingzhai.

Abbess Master Jing Yi, after returning to Dita Peak, just like Master Liaokong, recounted everything that had happened when she went to Wudang.

Apart from the fact that she had been converted by Li Li Zhangsheng, everything else was basically nine parts true and one part false.

"Amitabha!"

"Five sects, five hundred years of incense energy, and the Buddhist powerhouses from the Upper World invited out could not do anything to that Li Li Zhangsheng?!"

"Could it be... that we must use a thousand years of incense energy?! Or perhaps unseal supreme combat power that exceeds the Shattered Void Realm cultivation base?!"

Dini pondered, her expression constantly changing, her heart filled with unwillingness.

At this very moment, in the Great Sui, it was a time of great contention; Cihang Jingzhai had already selected the True Son of Heaven, not just the True Son of Heaven to replace the Great Sui, but even more so the True Son of Heaven who might unify the Martial World and establish the fourth truly eternal divine dynasty.

But who would have thought that the Ming Emperor Zhu Zhu Yuanzhang had actually established the Immortal Martial Ming; although he had not unified the Martial World and could not be called a true eternal divine dynasty, it clearly had already beaten the various countries of the world by one step and even possessed a trace of the charm of an eternal divine dynasty.

And the True Son of Heaven selected by Cihang Jingzhai had not even replaced the Great Sui yet.

The Great Sui was tottering; moreover, judging from the news that had just arrived, the Sui Emperor Yang Guang seemed to have regained his ambition.

And regardless of whether it was the establishment of the Immortal Martial Ming or the ambition of the Sui Emperor Yang Guang, they all pointed to one person, and that was Quanzhen... Li Li Zhangsheng!

For Cihang Jingzhai, Li Li Zhangsheng was a huge variable, an unfathomable variable!

"Li Li Zhangsheng! He cannot be left alive!"

"Absolutely... cannot be left alive!"

"The fourth truly eternal divine dynasty must be our Buddhist Buddha Land!"

Dini's eyes flashed, and she had made a decision in her heart.

The Buddhist Buddha Land was not just Dini's own idea, but also the idea of the Buddhists of the world, and even more so the idea of the two sect masters of Buddhism in the Upper World.

Great Sui, Yangzhou City.

"This is... the Great Sui's Yangzhou City?!"

"Although the Great Sui world is already in chaos, this Yangzhou City is still incomparably prosperous!"

Huang Rong's clothes were ragged, looking like a beggar, and looking at the flourishing Yangzhou City, she could not help but sigh endlessly.

In her impression, there were very few cities that could compare to Yangzhou City, only the Great Song's Lin'an, Liyang's Wudicheng, and so on!

Dong! Dong! Dong!

Just then, the sound of neat footsteps came, like thunder, shaking the long sky.

"By order of the Garrison Commander: Seal the city gates! Capture thieves, ruffians, beggars, and other suspicious persons! Better to capture wrongly than to let one slip through!"

As the voice fell, a group of soldiers scattered in all directions to seize people.

"Hurry! Hurry! There's a beggar here! Seize her quickly!"

A soldier saw Huang Rong and shouted loudly.

Following that, two soldiers moved out and grabbed toward Huang Rong.

They're even capturing beggars?!

Seeing this, Huang Rong's eyes widened, and she was directly dumbfounded.

One must know that she had disguised herself as a beggar precisely for the sake of safety.

Who would have thought that just after arriving in Yangzhou City, not even half a day had passed, and she was about to be captured?! ===== CHAPTER 439 =====
