Chapter 542 Niu Ben is a Saint
Chapter 542 Niu Ben is a Saint
The human race also participated in the earlier great war against the Devouring Universe Realm.
For this reason, Huangtian personally went to Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain and invited Zhen Yuanzi to join the human race.
Unfortunately, the war achievements that the human race ultimately gained did not earn them the reward of Saint Crystals.
Shocked, Cangjie turned his gaze and looked directly at the heavens:
"Senior brother."
"Should we ask our master for help?"
"Should we ask him to look after our human race during the great war? To help our human race accumulate more war merits?"
As soon as Cangjie finished speaking, the other high-ranking members of the human race nodded in agreement, agreeing that the suggestion was good.
After all, Niu Ben was the first sage.
If he is willing to help the human race, it shouldn't be difficult for them to obtain a Saint Crystal as a reward.
However, to everyone's surprise, Huang Tian smiled bitterly upon hearing this, shook his head, and said:
"No!"
"We've already troubled Master with the matter of the Five Emperors' quota!"
"Furthermore, the Bull Clan will also be involved in this war with the extraterrestrial world."
"Master is the king of the Bull Clan, so naturally he would consider the interests of the Bull Clan."
"Let's... fight for it ourselves!"
As he spoke, Huang Tian turned his gaze and swept it over the crowd.
After hearing what Huangtian said, Cangjie and the others were stunned for a moment, and did not say anything more.
……
Western religion, Mount Sumeru.
Beside the Eight Treasures Merit Golden Pool, Jieyin and Zhunti were discussing something.
Suddenly, a streak of light descended.
Upon closer inspection, the Kunpeng Man had already appeared.
"Um?"
Upon seeing the Kunpeng, Jieyin and Zhunti frowned slightly, but the two saints quickly returned to normal.
He had already guessed the purpose of Kunpeng's visit.
"Greetings to the two saints!"
Kunpeng stepped forward and bowed deeply to the two saints.
Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other.
"Kunpeng, you've come about... the Saint's Crystal, haven't you?"
The guide asked aloud.
Kunpeng nodded and hummed softly:
"That's right!"
"You two sages, this is a rare opportunity."
"If we miss this opportunity, who knows when the next chance to become a saint will come!"
"Kunpeng earnestly requests that the two saints assist me in vying for the Saint's Crystal in this extraterrestrial war."
When he said this, Kunpeng's eyes were full of pleading.
It should be noted that after he renounced the demon race, he joined the Western Sect and was even appointed as the Third Buddha by the two saints of the Western Sect.
Over the years, Kunpeng has been cultivating in seclusion.
Unfortunately, his cultivation level remained stagnant.
Now, a great war with the world outside our region is about to break out.
After this battle, if you win, you will not only receive the rewards of Heavenly Merit, but the outstanding ones will also receive Saint Crystals!
In Kunpeng's view, this was the best opportunity for him to become a saint!
Upon hearing what Kunpeng said, Jieyin and Zhunti did not give an immediate reply.
After a brief silence, the Sage Zhunti smiled and said:
"Kunpeng!"
"You are the third Buddha of the West."
"My senior brother and I will certainly consider your path to sainthood."
"When the great war breaks out, you should do your best to suppress the foreign enemies."
After hearing what Zhunti said, Kunpeng frowned.
Thinking about how Zhunti's words were ambiguous and he hadn't clearly stated that he would fight for the Saint's Crystal for him.
"hateful!"
"Those two old foxes, they wouldn't be eyeing their own disciples, would they?"
Kunpeng muttered to himself, his anger rising, but he dared not make a move.
After a moment's hesitation, he took a deep breath, then came to his senses and replied:
"Yes, sage."
Having said that, Kunpeng didn't linger and immediately departed.
After Kunpeng left, Zhunti narrowed his eyes slightly, a sinister smile appearing on his lips, and muttered softly:
"Senior brother."
"Although this Kunpeng has joined our Western religion."
"But in his heart, it seems he doesn't feel much of a sense of belonging to our Western religion!"
As he spoke, Zhunti turned his gaze to Jieyin beside him.
Jieyin smiled slightly, his face showing deep thought.
After thinking for a moment, he replied:
"When the time is right, we need to purify his soul and make him completely devoted to my Western religion!"
……
Meanwhile, on Penglai Island.
After the Three Pure Ones returned, they immediately summoned the disciples of the three religions to discuss matters.
Upon learning that a great war was about to begin, the disciples of the three religions were naturally shocked.
However, considering that this great battle would bring rewards of heavenly merit and the even more miraculous sacred artifacts and crystals of saints, the disciples of the three religions were naturally excited.
After all, if one could obtain the Saint's Crystal, it would be a chance to rise to the top in one step.
After some discussion, the Three Pure Ones instructed their disciples to prepare as soon as possible.
……
In this way, all the sects and forces in the primordial world mobilized to prepare for the upcoming great war with the Xuanhuang Realm.
At the same time, Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao arrived at the outer edge of the prehistoric world.
With their strength, they easily found the breach.
"This is it!"
The avatar of the Heavenly Dao looked towards the cracked spatial barrier.
Hongjun nodded, his brows furrowing slightly, and he uttered a soft question:
"strangeness."
"The Xuanhuang Realm only blasted a hole in it, and then stopped bombarding the spatial barrier."
"Could this be a scam?"
As he spoke, Hongjun turned his gaze to the young man who was the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao standing to the side.
"Um?"
Upon hearing Hongjun's words, the Heavenly Dao avatar frowned slightly.
After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke:
"We can't worry about that now!"
"Instead of waiting to be killed, we should take the initiative."
"Let's work together and, following this crack, carve out a passage in the opposite direction!"
"At that time, we will harness the power of the primordial world and storm into the Xuanhuang Realm!"
As he spoke, a sense of urgent desire flickered in the eyes of the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao.
Upon seeing this, Hongjun narrowed his eyes slightly, a subtle, almost imperceptible glint of something unusual flashing in the depths of his gaze.
Previously, after helping Niu Ben successfully attain the Great Luo of Hunyuan, he summoned Niu Ben to Zixiao Palace for a secret meeting.
He told Niu Ben that the Heavenly Dao of the primordial world had already awakened its own consciousness.
After the Great War of Devouring Universe, Hongjun and the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao joined forces to defeat the Holy Ancestor and share the Holy Ancestor's primordial power.
This also caused the Heavenly Dao of the primordial world to evolve even faster!
Just as Hongjun was lost in thought, the avatar of the Heavenly Dao frowned slightly and uttered a soft question:
"The Dao Ancestor?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Upon hearing this, Hongjun quickly regained his senses and replied:
"Since you've already decided on the will of Heaven..."
"Then let's begin!"
Next, Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao incarnation did not delay. They immediately used their great magic power to begin constructing a teleportation channel in reverse from the crack.
……
Time flies.
Before we knew it, more than half a year had passed.
Over this period of time, all the forces in the prehistoric world have been making preparations at a frantic pace.
The purpose, of course, is to wage a great war against the Xuanhuang Realm beyond the outer realms!
