Chapter 539: The Means of the Buddhist Sect

Maitreya Buddha had no reason to refuse at this moment. After all, once he could control and complete the Journey to the West plan, then when the Journey to the West Great Calamity ended, he, Maitreya Buddha, would be able to replace Ancient Buddha Dipankara and become the new Buddha of the Western Buddhist sect.

Facing such temptation, even if there was a trap in front of him, Maitreya Buddha would not refuse, not to mention that Maitreya Buddha did not see Ancient Buddha Dipankara's trap at all now.

Yuan Tiangang, combining the strength of all the personnel of the Astronomical Bureau, and with the support of the Great Tang's national strength, could also use the blessing of the dynasty fortune.

It could be said that the soul of the Jinghe Dragon King had no way to break through this ghost-repelling array at all.

"Li Shimin, damn it, really damn it." The Jinghe Dragon King now, feeling the restraint of the ghost-repelling array on himself, and looking at the 'enemy' Tang Emperor Li Shimin in front of him, was also in a dilemma.

Guided by hatred, the Jinghe Dragon King very much hoped to kill Tang Emperor Li Shimin, even at the cost of his own life. ===== CHAPTER 977 =====

And under the control of his self-consciousness, the Jinghe Dragon King knew that once he forcibly broke through this ghost-repelling array set up by Yuan Tiangang, it would inevitably lead to his soul flying away and scattering.

So facing such a situation, the Jinghe Dragon King could neither advance nor retreat.

It was also at this time that Ancient Buddha Dipankara and Maitreya Buddha joined forces to attack.

"Look at the trash you chose, you can't even handle this situation!"

Even though they had joined forces to attack, Maitreya Buddha still did not forget to mock Ancient Buddha Dipankara.

The ghost-repelling array, against the Jinghe Dragon King who only had a soul left, could be said to be invincible, but facing the two Western Quasi-Saints.

Such an array, in front of the two Quasi-Saints, was as fragile as thin paper.

"If it weren't for you intervening, how could it have come to this point!" Ancient Buddha Dipankara also replied indignantly.

"Ridiculous! Even without my secret intervention, could the Great Tang not have set up this ghost-repelling array?"

Maitreya Buddha's words directly broke Ancient Buddha Dipankara's defense, so much so that Ancient Buddha Dipankara could not speak to refute for a long time.

After all, Ancient Buddha Dipankara really did not expect that the Great Tang had so many capable people and strangers, so much so that even a Jinghe Dragon King could not threaten Tang Emperor Li Shimin, who was a mortal.

"Alright, now is not the time to talk about this. Now we still need the Jinghe Dragon King to force Tang Emperor Li Shimin a bit more, let him know that the Daoist sect's means cannot solve the Jinghe Dragon King. In this way, he will change his mind and remember the means of my Buddhist sect."

Ancient Buddha Dipankara changed the subject directly at this moment.

Maitreya Buddha saw this and did not hold onto this topic and pursue it relentlessly.

After all, Maitreya Buddha was already the controller of the Western Buddhist sect's Journey to the West plan, and the verbal disputes in front of him were no longer important to Maitreya Buddha.

And on the other side, with Ancient Buddha Dipankara and Maitreya Buddha joining forces, the originally very stable ghost-repelling array was now beginning to totter under the magic power of the two Quasi-Saints.

"Next, it depends on the Jinghe Dragon King."

Ancient Buddha Dipankara and Maitreya Buddha only broke the ghost-repelling array set up by Yuan Tiangang and did not intervene in it anymore.

After all, the backlash from the dynasty fortune, and even the human fortune, was not easy for even Ancient Buddha Dipankara and Maitreya Buddha, who were Quasi-Saints, to bear.

Fortunately, now the two of them were acting together, so even if there was a backlash, it was shared together.

Consequently, the backlash from the Great Tang’s dynastic fortune and the fortune of humanity was something the Ancient Buddha Dipankara and the Maitreya Buddha could still withstand.

"What is going on?! How could the Ghost-Repelling Array be broken so suddenly?"

The moment the Ancient Buddha Dipankara and the Maitreya Buddha made their move, Yuan Tiangang sensed that the Ghost-Repelling Array, which had been holding back the Jinghe Dragon King, had been shattered in an instant.

Yuan Tiangang was, after all, a mere mortal. Even though he had learned some Daoist methods, he could not perceive the slightest trace of a Quasi-Saint’s actions.

Therefore, no matter how hard Yuan Tiangang racked his brain, he could not understand why the Ghost-Repelling Array he had set up had been broken.

However, although Yuan Tiangang could not figure out the reason at the moment, his feet were running rapidly.

It was not that Yuan Tiangang was afraid of death, but he understood that with the Ghost-Repelling Array broken, the Jinghe Dragon King would be able to search for the Tang Emperor Li Shimin without obstruction.

The Ghost-Repelling Array had been utilizing the Great Tang’s dynastic fortune, which was why the Jinghe Dragon King had been unable to harm the Tang Emperor Li Shimin in front of Yuchi Gong and Qin Shubao previously.

But now, the Great Tang’s dynastic fortune had also been affected because the Ghost-Repelling Array was broken. As a result, the Jinghe Dragon King was no longer suppressed by the dynastic fortune.

Facing Yuchi Gong and Qin Shubao, he could now defeat them and thereby threaten the life of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Yuan Tiangang quickly ran toward the location of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, aiming to block the Jinghe Dragon King and prevent the Tang Emperor Li Shimin’s life from being threatened.

"Roar!"

The dragon roar of the Jinghe Dragon King now echoed throughout the entire Great Tang imperial palace.

And over here, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, who had already prepared to sleep, was once again enraged by the Jinghe Dragon King’s roar.

"Yuan Tiangang, my Great Tang has already used the strength of the entire nation to support you in setting up the Ghost-Repelling Array, and even the dynastic fortune of my Great Tang was lent to you."

"And now, this is the answer you give me? Damn it, what kind of Daoist expert, you are simply a piece of trash!"

At this moment, looking at the Jinghe Dragon King who had broken through the Ghost-Repelling Array, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin was furious to the extreme.

"Tang Emperor Li Shimin! I want you to be buried with me!"

The Jinghe Dragon King did not need to wait for the Tang Emperor Li Shimin to fall asleep and strike in a dream this time.

Because now, without the suppression of the dynastic fortune, the Jinghe Dragon King’s strength could be fully unleashed.

So, under these circumstances, even if the Jinghe Dragon King was only a soul, it was not something the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, a mere mortal, could resist.

"Jinghe Dragon King, if you want to harm His Majesty’s life, you must first get past me!"

Just as the Jinghe Dragon King arrived at the door of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin’s bedchamber, he was met with an attack from Yuchi Gong.

Yuchi Gong immediately unleashed his weapon, blocking the Jinghe Dragon King before the Tang Emperor Li Shimin’s bedchamber.

"And the current Jinghe Dragon King is no longer the Jinghe Dragon King of last night who was suppressed by the dynastic fortune."

Consequently, although Yuchi Gong attacked with all his might, he was defeated instantly with a wave of the Jinghe Dragon King’s hand.

It was not that Yuchi Gong had underestimated his enemy, but rather that Yuchi Gong had not expected the Jinghe Dragon King’s strength to be so powerful.

The Jinghe Dragon King’s only goal was the life of the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, so even for Yuchi Gong, who had attacked him directly, he merely rendered him unable to fight, without taking his life.
