"Fellow Daoist, I have something unclear." Maitreya Body suddenly looked at Abbot Tianyun and asked, "Why did you specifically talk to me before?"

Tianyun Abbot's face changed for a while, and he forced a smile and said, "Why do fellow Daoists say this?"

"Fellow Daoist Tianyun, since you met me, you have been talking about Blissful Incense's bad things, both internally and externally. But after all, this place is under the rule of Thunderclap Temple, but fellow Daoist is almost unscrupulous----"

This abbot Tianyun appeared by chance, and acted and spoke very deliberately. He was even more obviously dissatisfied with Thunderclap Temple.

Maitreya Body Of course you have to be careful.

Abbot Tianyun was silent for a while, then suddenly pointed in the direction of Thunderclap Branch Temple and asked Maitreya Body: "Fellow Daoist, are you willing to be like those mortals?"

Maitreya Body shook his head.

"I don't want to either."

"So?"

"We monks are currently not affected by Blissful Incense, but they need the power of Incense Power - they will always take a fancy to me in the future."

This is not unreasonable.

To put it simply, the power of Incense Power means sharing Divine Soul. The Divine Soul of a monk is far greater than that of a mortal. Four Direction Buddhas will naturally not let go of such a group of good lambs.

Nowadays, the monks are fine. On the one hand, it may be because Blissful Incense technology is not that mature yet. Another more likely reason is that Thunderclap Temple internally is probably very afraid of this thing and does not want to be affected by it.

But this is all temporary. As Four Direction Buddhas, as Golden Immortal, their will cannot be resisted by the monks below.

But what does Tianyun abbot want to do?

Seeing Maitreya Body's expression of approval, Abbot Tianyun said with a smile, "Some fellow Daoists and I, in order to protect ourselves, keep in touch secretly and help each other."

Secret organization?

Maitreya Body was a little surprised.

"What are you going to do?"

"First, we want to find a way to leave Western Continent."

This is understandable, Western Continent is Thunderclap Temple's territory after all, and they are definitely unable to resist.

"What about the Great Vajra Dharma Realm?"

"So, we have a second purpose."

"What?"

"We want to find the real Wheel-Turning Sage King! Wheel-Turning Sage King should be the one who calms the chaos and leads all living beings. Four Direction Buddhas uses evil incense to confuse believers. It is definitely not Wheel-Turning Sage King!"

Seeing the firmness on Abbot Tianyun's face, Maitreya Body became somewhat enlightened. As a Western Continent person, Abbot Tianyun probably had a good impression of Buddhism and even believed in Buddhism.

I'm afraid he also believes in what Wheel-Turning Sage King said.

To a certain extent, he is more religious than Four Direction Buddhas.

It's a pity that the abbot of Tianyun doesn't understand. Judging from Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor's situation, this Buddhist School is fundamentally broken----

"So when you see me, no, when you see a monk, you want to win over me?"

This recruitment is too casual, you are a secret organization after all!

"How could I be so careless?"

"With your fellow Daoist cultivation, you will not be confused by Blissful Incense."

"The identity of fellow Daoist is not that of Thunderclap Temple."

Abbot Tianyun paused, then looked at Maitreya Body and said, "The most important thing is that fellow Daoists have a compassionate heart."

"That's why I took the initiative to find you."

Maitreya Body stopped talking. He looked at Abbot Tianyun's expectant eyes, but he didn't trust him too much in his heart.

First, when the two met for the first time, and their words were unfounded, it was difficult for him to know whether what the other party said was true or false.

The other reason is actually more realistic. The Western Continent monk is not strong enough.

There is not even Dao Fruit monk among them.

If you want to find a new Wheel-Turning Sage King, or even help that person achieve great things and unify Western Continent, they really don't have enough.

Seemingly seeing Maitreya Body's rejection, Abbot Tianyun smiled and took out a rosary, handed it to Maitreya Body and said, "I'm not asking you for anything, fellow Daoist. This is a liaison between us. Even if you don't want to be our comrade, it's good to keep in touch with each other and exchange information."

Maitreya Body heard the word "information", his heart moved slightly, and he put the rosary in his hand.

Abbot Tianyun nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly said something that Maitreya Body didn't expect, "Fellow Daoist, you think it will be difficult for us to succeed, right?"

Maitreya Body The only answer is silence.

"Many fellow Daoists think so, but fellow Daoist, have you ever thought about how we acted under the noses of Thunderclap Temple and concealed it from them?"

Maitreya Body was stunned for a moment, then looked at Abbot Tianyun and saw a mysterious smile on his face.

This abbot Tianyun walked in and out of Thunderclap Branch Temple without fear at all. He even solicited monks on the street and seemed not to be afraid of being reported.

Really a bit overconfident.

Tianyun The abbot said nothing, but gently clasped his hands toward the extreme west with a pious look on his face.

Maitreya Body's eyes narrowed, and just when he was about to speak, he saw this person suddenly disappear in front of him. With his Loose Immortal cultivation, he didn't even see where the other person went!

Maitreya Body looked towards the extreme west, that place is where Thunderclap Temple is----

Tianyun Abbot means that the people behind them are among Thunderclap Temple?

"Western Continent's situation is too complicated."

Zheng Fa has rushed back specially and also held an emergency meeting with Grand Elders' Council, mainly because the situation Maitreya Body saw at the Western Continent was really troublesome.

On Grand Elders' Council, others were also frowning.

"With Blissful Incense, it is almost impossible for Maitreya Body to take the mass line." Zheng Fa continued, "This thing is not to blame the common people, but Thunderclap Temple and Blissful Heavenly Maiden are not human beings."

Everyone nodded slightly.

Everyone who has practiced Dharma Body Method knows that it is difficult for even monks to get rid of the control of the physical body, let alone the ordinary ones.

"On the other hand, Divine Way Method has also decided that it will be difficult for us to hide our actions from Thunderclap Temple."

This is why Maitreya Body is cautious in everything.

Thunderclap Temple is in the Western Continent, and with Divine Way Method, he is almost omniscient.

Uncle-Master Pang frowned and said, "So, that Tianyun is really weird, how did he hide it from Thunderclap Temple, and who is behind it----"

Senior Sister Zhang nodded slightly. "Whether the other party is a friend or an enemy, we can't tell yet, but Maitreya Body really shouldn't be too impulsive, just wait and see what happens."

Uncle-Master Pang frowned and said, "What about the festival?"

Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang looked at each other and could only shake their heads. "There is no way. Maitreya Body has too few people and resources available now, so it is impossible to do anything.

Uncle-Master Pang sighed sadly, "I don't know what Thunderclap Temple is going to do----"

Among Jade Pool, Maitreya Body became a disciple of Jade Snow Mountain, standing in the crowd and looking at the building in front of him.

This is a Buddhist pagoda, one hundred feet high, resplendent with gold and jade, with various runes painted on it.

The pagoda stands in the lush forest of Jade Pool, like an emerald gold hairpin, it looks extremely beautiful.

But in the forest full of life, there are densely packed people kneeling with skinny bones.

They looked up at the pagoda, with no emotion in their numb eyes, as if they were dead.

The disciples of the Blissful Heavenly Maiden line were walking in the forest and said loudly, "The festival is over, you can have Blissful Incense to eat!"

The eyes of those mortals who were listless just now suddenly became brighter. Against the background of the leaves, their eyes were actually a little green, like extremely hungry wolves.

Azure Maiden beside him also changed his appearance and mingled among the disciples. At this time, he whispered softly, "Is this all the fault of Hundred Flowers?"

Maitreya Body said nothing.

"Elixir Sea is gone. Every one of these ordinary people has lost their longevity and their life is not long." Azure Maiden whispered, "Hundred Flowers She fished so hard without thinking about the consequences?"

Maitreya Body shook his head.

He didn't see through what Blissful Heavenly Maiden was thinking.

He did not have the filter of Azure Maiden versus Blissful Heavenly Maiden. To be honest, he did not completely believe that Blissful Heavenly Maiden took out Blissful Incense to protect Jade Pool.

She could even join one force and use more to fight against the smaller ones. With the help of Blissful Incense, Western Continent would soon unify, instead of the current three parties.

Blissful Heavenly Maiden, Four Direction Buddhas, each has his own thoughts, which led to the current chaos of the Western Continent.

"I'm waiting to do nothing?"

Maitreya Body thought for a while, shook his head and said, "We don't know what they want to do, it's not worth the risk."

Azure Maiden nodded slightly and looked under the pagoda. There, Blissful Heavenly Maiden was wearing a white dress with his hands clasped together as if praying.

Following her prayers, the ceremony soon began.

Those mortals slowly followed the disciples in reciting an unknown scripture.

The chanting of thousands of people made the leaves on the treetops rustle, and the pagoda gradually lit up.

Maitreya Body mingled in the crowd, moving his lips but making no sound. He just watched the festival carefully and at the same time, transmitted everything he saw back to the Nine Mountains Realm.

The golden light on the pagoda became brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire sky.

Looking into the distance, I found that there were two similar bright lights in the far distance. Light pillars shot out from the horizon, as if two suns were rising at the same time.

Maitreya Body immediately understood that this was Four Direction Buddhas who was also holding a festival.

The light from the three pagodas merged in the sky, forming a dazzling huge ball of light.

Maitreya Body couldn't help but squint his eyes. It took him a while to get used to it, and he looked carefully inside the light ball.

Except for the three Thunderclap Temple, there is no one else who can allow five Golden Immortal to hold the festival at the same time.

As for the ceremony that allowed these three people to mobilize the entire power of the Western Continent, Maitreya Body was actually very afraid of it, but there was really no way to stop it, so now he could only watch from afar.

Two figures appeared in the ball of light.

One on the left and one on the right, they stand cross-legged in the air, with a holy golden mountain behind them, which is none other than Pure Land.

Lu Mo!

Maitreya Body I immediately recognized the figure on the right!

Lu Mo's aura at this time is even more frightening than before. I'm afraid those previous rumors about his great improvement in strength are not false.

The person sitting on the other side, Maitreya Body, also guessed who it was - the founder of Thunderclap Temple, Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor.

On that day, Zheng Fa came to Thunderclap Temple to participate in Great Luo Dharma Assembly. He had never seen the true face of Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor. Unexpectedly, he suddenly showed up today.

He looked like an old monk, with a skinny face and an ordinary look. At this time, his eyes were slightly closed, not looking at the Western Continent sentient beings.

Maitreya Body carefully observed Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor and Lu Mo.

Speaking of which, I have a very surprising guess about the person behind the abbot Tianyun - maybe it is Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor!

Only in this way can we explain why the other party was able to hide things from Thunderclap Temple:

Founder is rebelling, who can find out?

On the other hand, it is also because I have great trust in his strength - for ordinary True Immortal, it is difficult for Abbot Tianyun to disappear in front of his eyes so easily.

And Thunderclap Temple no longer has Golden Immortal.

After much calculation, both Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang think that Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor is the most likely, followed by Lu Mo.

But now looking at these two people, Maitreya Body found that both of them seemed to be ignorant, as if they were sleeping.

While he was thinking, the situation in heaven suddenly changed.

The light inspired by the three pagodas merged into Jinshan, making it brighter and brighter, and finally became transparent.

At this time, everyone suddenly saw that there seemed to be a vague figure lying flat inside Jinshan.

In the golden light, no one could see clearly what he looked like.

The figure was nourished by the golden light, slowly floated up in the mountain, and landed cross-legged at the bottom of the mountain.

Earth Emperor Corpse?

Maitreya Body is getting more and more nervous. What is the purpose of this festival?

Help Earth Emperor Corpse out of trouble?

He shook his head in his mind. If this was the case, then Wheel-Turning Sage King and Future Buddha would be meaningless.

It was precisely because of this judgment that he chose to stand aside and watch.

Sure enough, Earth Emperor Corpse sat in the air, raised his head, and seemed to look at the surrounding Jinshan Mountains, with no intention of breaking out of the cage.

So what does he want to do by holding this festival?

Maitreya Body also confirmed at this time that this festival was completely inspired by Earth Emperor Corpse.

Earth Emperor Corpse quickly gave Maitreya Body the answer.

He stretched out his right hand, with his arm straight forward and his fingers slightly bent.

The golden light from the three pagodas poured into his hand, making his palm brighter and brighter.

After three full days, Earth Emperor Corpse seemed to have gathered all his strength and suddenly let out a hoarse cry.

Western Continent Most people probably can't understand this call.

But Maitreya Body understood it, but didn't understand it either.

This is the language of High Antiquity Primordial Wilderness, with only one word. "Come!"

What he doesn't understand is, what's coming?

In the Nine Mountains Realm, Zheng Fa, who was closely observing the festival, suddenly changed his face and flew away from the Nine Mountains Realm without even having time to say a word.

Several Taishang elders had never seen him like this before. They were a little panicked and rushed out after him.

Senior Sister Zhang flew in front of everyone, followed closely by Zheng Fa, and saw him flying in a direction that he was somewhat familiar with for a moment, then suddenly stopped, his eyes serious and his face ugly.

"Where is it?"

Senior Sister Zhang asked softly.

Zheng Fa nodded.

Behind them, Uncle-Master Pang and others looked at each other, wondering where they were talking about?

Zheng Fa added, "And Primordial Purple Qi----"

Now everyone understood it, and their scalps were numb.

"Primordial Purple Qi lost it?" Uncle-Master Pang asked anxiously, "Where did it go?"

"Western Continent----" Zheng Fa suddenly turned his head and looked to the west, "This festival is summoning Primordial Purple Qi!"

Everyone's expressions changed drastically. Primordial Purple Qi's most precious treasure was just snatched away by Earth Emperor Corpse?

Senior Sister Zhang looked at Zheng Fa and understood in his heart that the reason why junior brother had never lost his temper just now was not simply because of Primordial Purple Qi.

She guessed right. Just now, Primordial Purple Qi flashed twice, bringing the entire Modern World with it, as if teleporting, and entered Western Continent in the blink of an eye.
