As mentioned before, the five holy masters of Xuanjiao were all powerful men who died in battles in ancient times, and they originally had the ability to realize the Taiyi Golden Immortal.
However, because they died in battle, their souls were rescued and resurrected by Taoist Master Juntian of Xuanjiao. After their resurrection, their strength was not fully restored, only the Taoism of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
But after Xuanjiao entered the world, the five holy masters were able to understand the way of heaven in the world, absorb the vitality of heaven and earth in the world, and quickly restore their strength.
Therefore, the current five holy masters have basically restored the strength of the Taiyi Golden Immortal. However, one thing to mention here is that after the death of Patriarch Hongyun, the person who succeeded him as the Holy Master of Huoyuan was also an ancient powerful man named 'Luo Xuan'.
This person is very powerful, especially good at fire magic. He was also a famous figure in ancient times.
But no matter how famous you are, under the power of heaven, it is difficult for him or the five holy masters to control the situation.
At this moment, in the Xuanjiao station of Woyan Mountain, the four holy masters, Jin Yuan Holy Master Xing Tian, Mu Yuan Holy Master Jiu Feng, Huo Yuan Holy Master Luo Xuan, and Tu Yuan Holy Master Jiu Tai Hu, sat speechless.
Di Jiang's body was parked in the big tent next to him, but his soul had been taken away by Jiao Shu, and there was no need to speculate too much about what fate he would face.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the Nine-tailed Fox, Holy Lord Tu Yuan, said: “It’s really a shame that fellow Daoist Dijiang underestimated the enemy and went into battle, causing his body and soul to disappear!”
Holy Lord Jin Yuan Xing Tian said: "Since Taoist Fellow Hongyun, our Xuanjiao has lost another Taiyi Golden Immortal who has attained the Dao."
"Han Jinlong Daoxing was really terrifying that day. I heard that she was resurrected by heaven more than two hundred years ago?" Holy Master Mu Yuan Jiu Feng asked.
The nine-tailed fox nodded and said, "Not bad."
After hearing this, all the Holy Lords were silent for a while. After a while, Jiufeng said: "Heavenly Court is really willing to spend a lot of money."
After these ancient powers were resurrected by Master Juntian, it took them countless billions of years to return to their peak level. It was only after they were introduced into the world by Buddhism that they gradually recovered to the strength of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
But that day, Han Jinlong Jiaoshu had only been resurrected by the Heavenly Court for more than two hundred years, and she had already restored her peak strength. It must be said that the power of the Heavenly Court had far exceeded their imagination.
"Fellow Taoists, we have to admit a reality." Holy Lord Huoyuan Luo Xuan said: "Today's Heaven is no longer the Heaven that everyone could step on in the ancient times."
As mentioned above, the ancient Heaven was dominated by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi. At that time, the Heaven was extremely weak, and none of the great gods of the present Heaven had yet entered the Heaven.
Therefore, the ancient Heavenly Court was simply a small force. As long as you have the Taoism of Taiyi Golden Immortal, you can go against Heavenly Court on anything, and Heavenly Court has nothing to do with you.
Finally, after the death of Donghuang Taiyi, the ancient heaven completely reached its lowest point and almost disappeared in the long river of time.
Until that man appeared, he practiced for a total of 1,750 kalpas, 129,600 years per kalpa, before finally cultivating the Great Way. He selected talents in the name of the 'Haotian Golden Tower and Jade Emperor', worked hard to govern, and finally saved the heaven that was about to collapse.
Now, the heaven in front of them has silenced these ancient powerful men. This is not the heaven in their memories at all.
"If the Heaven in ancient times was the Heaven today, then there would be nothing wrong with anyone else." Jiufeng said in a deep voice.
The Holy Lords were silent again for a while. They had always ignored one thing, that is, the long river of time always moves forward, and everything will gradually develop.
The heaven that anyone could step on in ancient times has now become the true master of the three realms, a great existence that both Taoism and Buddha bow their heads to.
"I wonder how Master will respond." The nine-tailed fox said slowly.
The other three Holy Masters looked at each other and finally shook their heads. If they could guess how True Lord Xuanzhou would react, then their status would have been reversed.
However, they knew three days later that the True Lord of Xuanzhou, Fu Zhao, had arrived and ordered Holy Lord Jinyuan Xingtian and Holy Lord Tuyuan Jiuweihu to defend the army of Marshal Wen Qiong of Heavenly Court, Holy Lord Muyuan Jiufeng and Huoyuan Sheng. Lord Luo Xuan defends Guan Yu and Jiao Shu's army.
In addition, if there is Taiyi Golden Immortal or Zhengdao Taiyi Golden Immortal in the heaven, they should use magical powers and magic weapons to control the enemy. They should not go into battle recklessly, and defense should be the first priority.
Subsequently, the two lines of defense of Xuanjiao each received support from two hundred thousand Buddhist monk soldiers, all of whom were monks from the True Immortal Realm. They were led by the 'Vajra Yaksha Ming King' and the 'Incompetent Victory Ming King', two of the eight great Ming Kings of Buddhism.
With the support of the two Ming Kings of Buddhism and 400,000 monks and soldiers, plus the four holy masters, a total of six Taiyi Golden Immortals who achieved Taoism were stationed in the temple, and the two lines of defense of Xuanjiao were immediately stabilized.
The two armies of Wen Qiong and Guan Yu launched offensive, defensive and attrition wars with Xuanjiao on the lines of Zhiluo Mountain and Woyan Mountain respectively. Xuanjiao focused on defense, while Tianting focused on attacking.
However, after several days of attack, Tianting suffered huge losses but not much gain, so he decisively reported to Erlang Shen and requested to stop the advance.
Erlang Shen immediately issued an edict to stop the advance, and began to mobilize the power of Zhengdao Taiyi Jinxian from Heaven to reinforce Wen Qiong and Guan Yu.
Two days later, the 'Tianpeng Yuan Sheng Zhenjun', who was the auxiliary Tianjun with Erlang Shen, entered the lower realm of Guan Yu's camp. At the same time, the Taoist Zhengdao Taiyi Golden Immortal 'Zixu Yuanjun Wei Huacun' and the 'Nanji Immortal' came with him. Weng', plus Jiao Shu, there are four Taiyi Golden Immortals in total.
The Zhengdao Taiyi Jinxian stationed in Wen Qiong's army are the other two auxiliary Tianzhen Lords, "Tianyouzhenjun Zhenjun" and "Yisheng Baodezhenjun". In addition, there is Zhengdao Taiyijin from the Taoist sect. Immortal 'the true king of Taoism' and 'the true king of pure virtue'.
In addition, there are five thunder emperors who also went down to the realm to participate in the war under the decree of Emperor Gouchen. Because Buddhism has sent a group of Buddhist Bodhisattvas and the Eight Great Ming Kings to participate in the war, heaven will naturally have to respond.
If there is any flaw in Heavenly Court, it is that the combat power of Zhengdao Taiyi Golden Immortal is seriously insufficient, and now that Dao Sect and Heavenly Court merge, it has just made up for this flaw.
So under the decrees of Emperor Nanhua, Emperor Chongxu, Emperor Tongxuan, and Emperor Dongling, all Taoist Taoist Taiyi Golden Immortals were dispatched, and the lower world joined the battle.
In this way, after the situation in Nanzhan Buzhou was overwhelming in Tianting, with Dijiang being beheaded by the formation as the dividing line, the combat power of Taiyi Golden Immortal and Zhengdao Taiyi Golden Immortal from all parties officially began to intervene.
The army of Heaven has occupied nearly two-thirds of the territory of Nanzhan Tribe, while Buddhism and Xuanjiao have concentrated their efforts to defend the remaining one-third of the territory they occupy, and are on a road with Heaven that traverses Nanzhan from west to east. Buzhou's straight battle line came to a stalemate.
With all parties proving the Taiyi Golden Immortal in place, the fighting between the immortals below the Golden Immortal will temporarily stop, and a higher level of fighting will slowly begin.
When the Taoist Taiyi Golden Immortal takes action, it is naturally impossible for him to fight in close combat with magic weapons from the beginning. Instead, he fights with magical powers from a higher level, or even uses the rules of the Tao that he has attained.
Their methods cover all the natural laws of heaven and earth, and they use the natural power of heaven and earth to deal with their enemies.
For a time, the entire Nanzhan continent fell into an extremely chaotic situation. Sometimes the entire continent became dark, sometimes it became bright and sunny, sometimes it became bone-chilling cold, sometimes it became scorching, sometimes the void was torn, sometimes Time intersects,
Sometimes fire turns into water, sometimes water turns into fire, sometimes positive turns into reverse, sometimes reverse turns into positive, sometimes heaven and earth are reversed, and sometimes yin and yang are confused.
If it weren't for the great power of Heavenly Court Daluo and Buddhist Daluo to protect all living beings in Nanzhan Buzhou, there would never be a single living creature left in Nanzhan Buzhou after this battle.
However, it was precisely because of the protection of Da Luo that the creatures in Nanzhan Buzhou were lucky enough to see the real "Fighting of the Immortals", which was really like raising your hands to cover the sky and the sun, and turning your hands over to turn the world upside down.
This level of fighting is no longer just a competition of pure strength, but also a competition of the realm of Taoism and the understanding of the way of heaven.
However, although the mortal creatures are protected by the great power of Daluo, the heavenly soldiers and generals, Buddhist monks, monk soldiers, Xuanjiao monks and Taoist soldiers are in misery.
Because most of the great power of these battles will eventually fall on them.
Fang Jian was not idle when he was looking at Buzhou's "Fighting of Immortals" in the south. He was recruiting a new round of heavenly soldiers.
"The edict has been sent out, but there are very few people who have responded." Qu Daoping handed a jade booklet to Fang Jian, "So far, there are only more than 10,000 loose immortals from the True Immortal Realm in the four major continents who have responded."
Fang Jian picked up the jade book and took a look at it, then sighed and said: "That's normal. It's not easy to practice as a loose immortal. It has always been the purpose of cultivating in seclusion and not paying attention to worldly affairs."
To put it bluntly, even the loose immortals are the "big bosses". It is almost impossible for them to come out to recruit heavenly soldiers to fight against Buddhism and Xuanjiao.
Therefore, Fang Jian's recruitment edict with extremely generous treatment conditions has been issued for many days, but there are only more than 10,000 loose immortals from the four major continents to apply.
"Ten thousand people are just ten thousand people. It's better than no one at all. Let's collect them all first and send them to the Beitianmen Dangmo School Lieutenant Headquarters for training." Fang Jian said, placing the seal on the jade book of names.
"Yes." Qu Daoping bowed and responded.
At this time, Fang Jian asked again: "How many heavenly soldiers can the Taoist sect recruit?"
Qu Daoping was slightly startled and said: "Chief Director, the situation at Dao Sect is very complicated and we don't know yet."
"Huh?" Fang Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "Did all the Taoist sects refuse to apply?"
Qu Daoping shook his head and said: "That's not true, it's just that the Taoist sect has suffered too much and can't squeeze out many people anymore. Some sects have even experienced faults in the True Immortal and Mysterious Immortal monks. Above the Yangshen Realm disciples are directly the Tai Yi Xuan is immortal."
"So serious?" Fang Jian said with a serious look on his face.
Qu Daoping nodded and said: "It's very serious. Now all the sects of the Taoist sects are gathered in Dongsheng Shenzhou. Chief Director, you can personally inspect the lower realms."
"Okay." Fang Jian nodded and said, "Then I will personally go down to the realm and inspect each sect."
Not long after, Fang Jianyi drove the mighty lower realm and went straight into Dongsheng Shenzhou. When he personally visited the mountain gates of the major sects of the Taoist sect, he confirmed that the Taoist sect's losses were really serious.
Decades of tug-of-war with Buddhism and Xuanjiao have created gaps among the Taoist monks in the three realms of True Immortal, Xuanxian and even Taiyi Xuanxian.
Take the four mountain sects of Qingcheng Mountain, Longhu Mountain, Yujing Mountain, and Maoshan as an example. The masters who teach the disciples of the Xiangyang God Realm are directly the Golden Immortal monks. In the past, the highest person who taught the disciples of the Xiangyang God Realm was the Xuanxian. It is common sense. It is the true immortal who is responsible.
"If there are True Immortal and Xuanxian monks among the various sects of the Taoist sect now, they must be the ones who will inherit the Taoist tradition of this sect in the future." Fang Jian came to this conclusion after inspecting all the sects of the Taoist sect.
"It's too miserable." Fang Jian couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.
And he is even worse, because the current situation of the Taoist sect will definitely not be able to support his plan to recruit three million heavenly soldiers.
Fang Jian pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind, slammed the table and said: "We still have to find a solution from Sanxian!"
