Chapter 489: The Struggle of the Great Dao

Clouds and mist all over the mountains, filling the four fields—

At this time, it was just the moment when the red sun was about to rise. Only at the corner of the sky could one see the hazy halo, while the thousands of peaks nearby were still hidden in the rolling clouds and mist, as if they were also swaying with the clouds and mist.

Looking from the cliff, it seemed that beneath his feet was a boundless ocean, and the mountains and ravines were slowly floating and sinking in the seawater, the depth difficult to fathom, making one's heart inexplicably cold.

At this time, following a hearty laugh from the Kongkong Daoist, a young woman wearing a star crown and a neon dress turned out not far away and asked respectfully:

"Does the teacher have any instructions?"

"No matter."

The Kongkong Daoist saw that the auspicious cloud on the woman's head was towering and vast, chaotic, and deep inside, there was faintly a line of green light swaying like a lotus.

He smiled kindly and nodded with satisfaction:

"Your progress in cultivation this time is a good thing for both you and me. No need to guard here. Now go back and polish your cultivation first, and consolidate your realm first."

Three hundred years later, I will allow you to come here again to listen to my lecture on the Pure Yang Great Dao."

"By the way, there is one more thing..."

The Kongkong Daoist thought for a moment and said:

"Your senior brother from Xudu Heaven recently sent his tribulation beast over again, and I don't know what he wants to say. You take that tribulation beast here, and then return to Zhengxu Heaven."

"As for the trivial matters in your clan, don't worry too much, just focus on cultivation."

"After a few days, someone from Douyu Heaven will send you what you need."

The young woman was overjoyed when she heard this, and then showed a thoughtful look.

"Senior brother from Xudu Heaven... Could it be that Demon Master Chen Yuxu?"

Although various thoughts surged into her mind in an instant, since the Kongkong Daoist had given instructions, the woman did not dare to be negligent and soon drove a clear breeze and disappeared in place.

And not long after, a thin old monkey wearing a bright red Daoist robe was brought to the cliff by the woman.

If Chen Hang were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this old monkey was the one he had seen in the Nianyu.

Since Chen Yuxu found the "Huanren Sutra" in that desolate boundary, the old monkey had been following by his side.

And Chen Yuxu was able to take Chen Ziding's life in his early years and successfully escape from Xuhuang Heaven, the old monkey also contributed a lot, which could be said to be truly selling his life.

However, at this time, the expression on the old monkey's face was not as relaxed and calm as usual, only showing caution.

And when his peripheral vision caught the sea of clouds under the cliff, his pupils could not help but shrink slightly, obviously still having lingering fears.

The territory where the old monkey was currently located was called Tianyu Mountain, which was a dojo where the Kongkong Daoist stayed most often in Douyu Heaven.

However, this place was less of a blessed land and more of a dangerous place, with killing formations everywhere, changing constantly. A slight step wrong, and one would face the disaster of form and spirit being destroyed in an instant.

And the thick fog lingering among the mountains was even more terrifying, making the old monkey inexplicably feel a sense of fear of meeting a natural enemy, almost every hair on his body was trembling, frantically warning his brain.

It seemed that as long as he touched those mists, something unspeakable would happen in an instant.

And if it weren't for the young woman splitting a path with a talisman decree just now and leading the way personally, knowing his own abilities, the old monkey would never have dared to come in.

However, the old monkey remembered that when he was sent to Douyu Heaven by Chen Yuxu last time, this thing clearly didn't exist.

But now...

"That person from the Yu clan? This woman is really lucky. Now she can come and go in Tianyu Mountain at will. It seems she has been accepted as a named disciple by the ancestor? I don't know how many lifetimes of blessings this took to cultivate. It really makes people envious!"

The old monkey thought to himself.

At this moment, the young woman bowed to the Kongkong Daoist and then retreated respectfully.

And in her shadow, a long-armed ape with a red face and yellow beard faintly appeared.

After making eye contact with the ape, the old monkey knew that he should be the tribulation beast of this Yu clan woman.

However, before the old monkey could guess what kind of ability this tribulation beast, who had the same origin as him, had, the Kongkong Daoist's voice suddenly rang out:

"How is Yuxu doing recently?"

"Reporting to the ancestor, good, very good!"

The old monkey hurriedly restrained his thoughts, knelt on the ground cautiously, and after kowtowing several times, continued:

"He is now able to control the Qi luck of the six sects freely, and has realized infinite wonders from it. And the Xuanming Wuxian Daoist of the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong personally took action to recast Yuxu's broken sword, which is now sealed in the fetal wall of the Shenyu Sect."

"Just waiting for it to mature, the quality of the sword can be improved and promoted to a true immortal weapon!"

The Kongkong Daoist was not surprised when he heard this and smiled slightly:

"The Dragon Horn Great Killing Sword, the sword that was broken by Chen Xiangxian himself back then? This object fits Yuxu very well. If it can be promoted to an immortal weapon, Yuxu can also have an extra help, which is a good thing."

The old monkey smiled repeatedly, and then when the Kongkong Daoist asked about his intention, the old monkey looked solemn, quickly organized the words he had carefully considered, and then bowed his head to say it.

However, before he finished speaking, the Kongkong Daoist's attention seemed to be attracted by something, and he looked at the void outside the universe, thoughtful.

Seeing this, although the old monkey was a bit confused, even if he were given ten thousand more guts, he would never dare to disturb the Kongkong Daoist's interest.

He could only bite the bullet and finish the rest of the words...

"I understand. Since Yuxu intends to cultivate that 'Yuanchen Ancestral Examination', I will naturally pass it to him. As for the matter of the Dudu Talisman Decree..."

Not long after the old monkey finished speaking, the Kongkong Daoist also shifted his gaze and said lightly:

"Very well, the Kanli Daoist still has some leftovers in his hands. He owed me a big favor before."

"Anyway, the Kanli Daoist is going to the Wenhuang Sect recently, so I will trouble him to go to the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong again and hand the Dudu Talisman Decree to Yuxu."

The old monkey could not hide his joy when he heard this.

The Dudu Talisman Decree was personally refined by the Tribulation Immortal Ancestor, and its preciousness did not need to be mentioned.

At first, the old monkey thought the Kongkong Daoist would shake his head at this. Both Chen Yuxu and he had already prepared in their hearts.

Unexpectedly, coming here today, he got such good news!

"Kanli Daoist, this recognized third-generation head disciple under the Tribulation Immortal, is actually going to the Wenhuang Sect? I don't remember what friendship Kanli Daoist has with the Wenhuang Sect..."

The old monkey was a bit puzzled at this time.

And he waited for a long time, but the Kongkong Daoist had no other instructions.

This made the old monkey really at a loss, and he could only bury his head and wait patiently.

"Have you ever heard of Donggaozi and Jingcang Bianji Buddha?" Suddenly, the Kongkong Daoist asked.

The old monkey opened his mouth in surprise, and before he could suppress the doubt in his heart, he spoke cautiously.

The Kongkong Daoist's voice continued to ring out, meaningfully:

"One is the master of the Thunder Department Tiangang Yinghua Mansion, and the other is an ancient Buddha who opened the Dharma Dao. These two rarely had any intersection in ordinary times. Who would have thought that these two were fighting together? It is also interesting."

"The Jingcang Bianji Buddha actually has some ability. If it weren't for chasing the Six-Winged Cicada in the hands of the Six-Eared Macaque back then, my Lingming Stone Monkey incarnation would not have entered the vast Taixu."

"Then I felt a sense, and happened to encounter the Buddhist country where the two were fighting for life and death, and peeked into an ancient great secret."

The old monkey pondered for a moment and said cautiously:

"Isn't it said that Donggaozi had already passed away in the Return Ruins in ancient times, and perished together with the two great powers of the Shaoyuan remnants? How could he fight against the Jingcang Bianji Buddha again?"

"And the Jingcang Bianji Buddha, Baoya Temple says this ancient Buddha entered the Gate of All Wonders, why..."

"Died in the Return Ruins? Ha, I think this is the cunning of Donggaozi and Great Manifestation."

"These two seemed to have a vague prediction of that unprecedented catastrophe, so they arranged in advance, let Donggaozi fake his death to escape, and then Great Manifestation and Donggaozi were one bright and one dark, to preserve the Yuchen power."

"And when the ancient times collapsed, Yuchen indeed did not suffer much damage."

"Except for Le Quan who sought his own death, although the Yuchen immortals were affected, not one of them completely perished under the tribulation."

The Kongkong Daoist smiled slightly;

"As for the so-called entering the Gate of All Wonders of Baoya Temple, it is just words to deceive the world, not worth mentioning!"

The old monkey also knew at this time that the Kongkong Daoist was not trying to discuss these immortal and Buddhist secrets with him, but was just feeling something in his heart, and was actually talking to himself.

He was also tactful and continued to ask with a smirk:

"Ancestor, since it is said that Donggaozi and Jingcang Bianji Buddha had no enmity, why did these two fight?"

"Naturally because of the struggle of the Great Dao!"

The Kongkong Daoist spoke slowly:

"In my opinion, this struggle of the Great Dao is far better than the so-called hatred of destroying a family or destroying a sect. Once established, it is difficult to reconcile!"

"These two hid it extremely well. Who could have known before that what they really wanted to walk was the 'Virtue' Dao?"

"But now, as that Buddhist country collapses and the Great Vajra Barrier is destroyed, all kinds of ancient doubts will eventually appear before people, and there will be no secrets anymore..."

The Kongkong Daoist's gaze looked through the void of the universe and fell directly on the Baoya Temple in the Boundless Light Heaven.

That was a pure and solemn land, with lecture halls, hermitages, pavilions, and palaces all showing the brilliance of seven treasures.

There were eleven towering and boundless mountains, eleven seas of golden sand, and green lions and white elephants could be seen walking or lying down everywhere in the treasure forests, with wonderful fragrance slowly drifting.

But as the Buddhist country was destroyed, the ten-thousand-foot-tall statue of Jingcang Bianji Buddha in the main hall of Baoya Temple also rumbled and sounded, and the light suddenly extinguished.

The monks in the hall looked in fear as the ancient Buddha statue suddenly added many small cracks. After a few breaths, the cracks became deeper and deeper.

The huge Buddha head broke first, and before it landed, it exploded into countless golden lights in the air, like a rainstorm arriving!

Because the Great Vajra Barrier on the Buddhist country could not only lock the void in all directions, but also had the supreme function of confusing heaven's secrets and divination.

Over the infinite years, it was not that there were no great powers in the universe of the heavens who doubted the true life and death of the Jingcang Bianji Buddha.

But no matter how they used their great supernatural powers or even urged the Destiny Ability, it was difficult to follow the flow of karma to find the truth inside.

Precisely because of this, the abbot of Baoya Temple and several Bodhisattvas dared to release false words to the outside world, saying that the Jingcang Bianji Buddha had entered the Gate of All Wonders to undergo tribulations.

The monks of Baoya Temple wanted to use this to deter enemies and preserve the foundation of the temple as much as possible.

And this was another intention of the Jingcang Bianji Buddha.

The reason why he spent effort to cast a solemn country back then and used his bottom-of-the-box means to apply a Great Vajra Barrier that could be called ultimately firm and deeply obtained the meaning of Vajra Samadhi to the Buddhist country.

This was not only thinking that after defeating Donggaozi, he could have a firm and pure place of cultivation to carefully organize what he had gained.

The Jingcang Bianji Buddha also had the idea that if he were defeated by mistake, he could also stay in the Buddhist country to heal his injuries, making it difficult for outsiders to detect his true situation.

In this way, even if he didn't show up, he could generally preserve the status of Baoya Temple in the Boundless Light Heaven.

Even if other Zen forests wanted to take action against Baoya Temple, they would have to consider his existence and could not be too unscrupulous.

But although such expectations were good, in actual practice, both plans fell through.

The Jingcang Bianji Buddha not only failed to defeat Donggaozi and become the temporary winner of this "Virtue" Great Dao struggle, but even failed to escape.

Donggaozi, who had used all his strength, first broke his Merit Golden Body with one finger, and then hit the top with Divine Thunder. The Jingcang Bianji Buddha thus passed away in his own Buddhist country, and even a thought could not escape the void.

Even the Great Vajra Barrier that the Jingcang Bianji Buddha was proud of was not as wonderful and perfect as he thought...

Less than a thousand years after the end of that Virtue struggle, a strange old Daoist riding a six-tusked white elephant suddenly broke in.

I don't know what method this person used to find the location of the Buddhist country all the way, which made Donggaozi at that time inevitably stunned.

"Heaven's number makes it so, not what supernatural powers can reach. Supernatural powers cannot reach heaven's number?"

Watching the many monks of Baoya Temple panic after the Buddha statue collapsed, almost losing their souls, the Kongkong Daoist smiled with emotion:

"Jingcang Bianji, although your various arrangements were useless, as far as preserving Baoya Temple as much as possible, that Great Vajra Barrier still contributed. As for now..."

He suddenly turned his head to look at the old monkey, waved his hand to signal that the tribulation beast did not need to kneel, and could just stand up.

"You also have some luck. Since you happened to catch up, then accompany me to watch the fun together." The Kongkong Daoist said.

Before the old monkey could bend down to answer, he suddenly saw the white thick fog under the cliff gather together, condensing into white cloud clusters the size of a hundred acres.

And through the cloud clusters, one could faintly see the different scenery of the universe, which gave the old monkey a big shock.

"A Donggaozi who was famous in the ancient Dao Court and most likely to take over the position of the next master of the Thunder Department Immortal Capital Thunder Division from the Great Manifestation Immortal."

"This person not only didn't die back then, but also wanted to walk the 'Virtue' Great Dao, and even the ancient Buddha Jingcang Bianji died at his hands, losing in the struggle of the Great Dao."

"Once such a strange thing is spread out and can no longer be concealed..."

"What kind of reaction will the enemies of Yuchen have?"

"Will that old Heavenly Venerable of Master Shan Jian Temple stand up for Jingcang Bianji?"

"And the immortals and gods who also walk the Virtue Great Dao, and even that old senior who is currently holding the Virtue Great Dao."

"If these 'fellow Daoists' of Donggaozi hear this news, what are their plans in their hearts?"

The Kongkong Daoist clapped his hands and laughed:

"Interesting, truly interesting. Let's watch a good show today!"

Following his words, the Buddhist country in the depths of the universe could no longer support itself and shattered with a boom. The Great Buddha statue of Baoya Temple also turned into powder and dissipated in the void in an instant.

Almost at the same time, because the Great Vajra Barrier no longer existed, the movement of the Jingcang Bianji Buddha passing away could not be concealed.

The Virtue Great Dao had an abnormality, the void had bursts of mourning sounds, and the sky rain fell in colorful ways. Before it landed, it turned into a blood-red piece, which was shocking, covering tens of thousands of miles of void, like a sea of blood floating and sinking!

The immortals, Buddhas, and gods of the universe felt it one after another, and one after another urged their great supernatural powers, cast their eyes on the Buddhist country, and began to calculate.

Not long after, in a desolate universe, a cry of surprise sounded first.

"Donggaozi, was it a fake death back then? You are still alive?!" ===== CHAPTER 490 =====
