When Chen Yuan understood the rules, all parties in the world also had new reactions.
Under the preparations of Jishi Bodhisattva, Buddhism, which was originally preparing to mobilize more troops to occupy the Central Plains, suddenly stopped attacking and focused on defense.
Because the Western Region is the basic foundation of Buddhism.
Buddhism wants to expand its power, spread Buddhist teachings throughout the world, and turn the Buddhist orthodoxy into the strongest orthodoxy in the world, but the first prerequisite is to stabilize the Western Region.
Thousands of years ago, when human war began, Buddhism took over the Western Region and began to develop. After thousands of years of careful education, all thirty-six countries recognized the existence of Buddhism above them.
Lingshan is the highest.
Buddha is supreme.
Such a huge area and population gave Buddhism a steady stream of development potential. With everyone working together, Buddhism, which was located on the border, became the first of the top ten immortal sects, and even the leader in the entire human world.
Both the Buddha and others in Lingshan knew the importance of the Western Region. Now, a force calling itself Mahayana Buddhism wants to subvert Buddhism and shatter their foundation.
How can it be tolerated?
Even if we give up the Central Plains, we still have to keep the Western Regions!
However, Mahayana Buddhism is another path that Mara and Jishi Bodhisattva have studied tirelessly for hundreds of years. Many Buddhist dharma are contrary to Lingshan orthodox Buddhism and are better than it.
I hope to create a truly supreme Buddhist kingdom, where believers are carefree, free from all diseases, enjoy eternal life, and are free from the oppression of nobles.
There is no pressure from Buddhism to create a truly equal world for everyone.
In the Western Region, people are already being squeezed to the extreme. It's not that many people don't want to resist, but they have to bow their heads because of the huge Lingshan Mountain.
When the anger builds up to a certain level, the reaction begins to burn almost at the speed of a prairie fire.
The followers of Mahayana Buddhism have been developing for many years and have spread almost throughout the Western Region. Now, once it broke out, it quickly caused great turmoil in the Western Region, and countless low-level people responded.
Lingshan was furious, and the Buddha was furious. He directly issued a decree to suppress the heretics and eliminate these people as quickly as possible. The entire Lingshan even came out in full force.
Scattered to thirty-six countries in the Western Region, trying to clean up the heretics.
But even if Lingshan is powerful, it cannot be completely eradicated. Often after suppressing some people, another group of people will stand up and promote Mahayana Buddhism.
In a very short period of time, the foundation of Buddhism was severely damaged.
Although Lingshan has the strength to put down the rebellion, it is currently unable to mobilize more forces to attack the Central Plains. When the news reached the Central Plains, it caused a huge shock.
It even caused Chen Yuan's momentum to rise out of thin air, because now the only people in the entire Central Plains who have the ability to compete with Chen Yuan are the Buddhists in the Western Regions. Now that Buddhism is in turmoil, who can resist Chen Yuan?
Dongfang Sheng, the master of the Heavenly Demon Palace, breathed a sigh of relief. If he continues to fight like Buddhism, the losses to the Heavenly Demon Palace will be very great. It is really not worth paying such a high price for a promise.
Now, I can finally take a break.
Therefore, when Buddhism did not start another war, the entire Lanzhou fell into a strange calm, as if the dispute between Buddha and Demon suddenly came to a stalemate.
But the calm in the west made the turmoil in the east and north more obvious.
There are rumors that the Japanese Japanese slaves have officially launched a large-scale attack on the Central Plains. Hundreds of thousands of Japanese warriors and warriors from overseas countries are fighting against the strong men of Emperor Wu City almost every day.
During this period, a fairy war also occurred!
Regardless of the difference between immortals and mortals, the immortals of the Japanese Yagyu family wanted to use the big to bully the small and destroy the fighting spirit of Wu Emperor City from the top, but the results were not satisfactory.
Ye Xiangnan suddenly showed great power and used the peak power of the Five Realms to resist the Immortal of the Sixth Realm and forced him back. Suddenly, his reputation soared and he was approaching Xiang Qianqiu.
However, there is also news that Ye Xiangnan was almost dying that day. The reason why he forced the immortals from Japan to retreat was because some immortals from the Central Plains who were living in seclusion overseas did not want to see the Central Plains devastated, so they came to help.
The news was all over the place. No matter it was Emperor Wu City or Japan, there was no response. It also caused huge heated discussions everywhere. It was also said that Ye Xiangnan's strength was indeed terrifying.
】
Xiang Qianqiu can fight an immortal, why can't he?
But some people say that Ye Xiangnan was forced into a desperate situation by Xiang Qianqiu in just a quarter of an hour during the battle in the Goddess Palace. If Chen Yuan hadn't taken action, he might even have died.
Obviously not as good as Xiang Qianqiu. By analogy, it was definitely because of the help of strong people that Wudi City survived this disaster.
After this battle, the Yan army under Chen Yuan divided into 100,000 troops, led by Jiang He, and directly entered the territory of Emperor Wu's city. Just when someone was shameless and took advantage of Chen Yuan's danger to attack.
Unexpectedly, there was no major battle between the two sides. They directly opened their defense lines and allowed the Yan army to enter and exit. They behaved very peacefully.
After that, Yan Jun raised his banner.
Drive out the Japanese slaves and protect the Middle Kingdom.
Only then did many people understand the grandeur of Chen Yuan's structure and the broad-mindedness of Ye Xiangnan. When the overseas enemy invaded, the two directly abandoned their grudges and united as one to fight against the Japanese slaves.
It attracted praise from countless people, and even ambitious warriors from the Central Plains rushed to the battlefield in the East China Sea without saying a word, swearing not to destroy the Japanese slaves and never return home.
But there are also some rumors saying that Chen Yuan has actually taken Ye Xiangnan under his command a long time ago, and what he is doing now is just for the world to see and to win people's hearts.
Otherwise, how to explain that Ye Xiangnan came to help during the battle at the Goddess Palace?
Many remarks constitute the chaotic scene in the Central Plains today.
In the north, the same is true.
The influence of the Liangman War has never been weak, but it has been obscured because the storm that Chen Yuan has stirred up in the Central Plains in recent months has been too great.
Nowadays, the Central Plains has fallen into silence, and the war in the north has naturally entered the eyes of the public.
The battle between the Northern Barbarians and Liangzhou was tense at first, but with the gradual increase in troops and the gathering of more and more strong men, it was naturally difficult for Wei Jinfeng, a top Yangshen, to resist alone.
Even at the most critical moment, the old heavenly master from Wudang Mountain appeared, holding a Zhenwu sword, and led the northern barbarian gods to start a fairy battle on the grassland.
The ground cracked and the sky collapsed, mountains and rivers turned upside down, and countless people died in the aftermath.
In the end, it ended in a tie.
The Northern Barbarians were still attacking, and Wei Jinfeng could only resist with all his strength.
Such huge pressure also gave Wei Jinfeng other thoughts, that is, thinking that Chen Yuan could help Liangzhou tide over the difficulties.
But the problem is that Chen Yuan's sphere of influence has not reached this point, and it is almost impossible to send troops. After thinking for a long time, he finally gave up.
I decided to take it one step at a time. If nothing could be done, I could only shed the last drop of blood for Zhongyuan and leave the mess to Chen Yuan to clean up.
At this time, Zhongzhou.
Jianye Emperor Sima Ke sat high on the dragon throne and stared blankly at the empty Jinluan Palace.
Since the coup, the civil and military officials in the Jinluan Palace have been somewhat inadequate. Sometimes, some low-level officials are even allowed to come to the palace as a foil.
Now, he has retired.
However, the courtiers left, and the eunuchs and maids around him also left. He was the only one left here, looking very lonely. Until now, Sima Ke also understood something.
Why did the emperor sometimes call himself a widower? Because when the situation was over, he was really just a lonely man. Even though he had already accepted all this, he would still have some daydreams in the dead of night when no one was around.
"rustle...."
The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty Jinluan Palace. Sima Ke raised his head and looked at the source of the sound. The trace of sadness on his face quickly disappeared and turned into a harmless smile.
"Why does the imperial sister have time to come here?"
As an emperor who is almost a decoration, the power of the entire capital and even the entire Zhongzhou is in the hands of the eldest princess Pingyang. It can be said that she is busier than him as the emperor.
She has to deal with political affairs every day, and she enjoys it.
As for him, the emperor, most of the time he just pretends to go to court. In fact, the backbone of those ministers in the court is Pingyang, and it has already been decided that they can be used to pretend to discuss matters.
"There is a letter from King Yan."
Pingyang walked up the steps step by step.
Sima Ke stood up quickly, made way for Princess Pingyang, and asked:
"What do you want from your father?"
Princess Pingyang sat in the seat that belonged to the emperor very familiarly and took a deep breath. This wasn't the first time she sat on it. At first, it was Sima Ke's humility, but in the process of humility, she once thought of giving it a try. After that... She quite liked this hard dragon chair. Whenever she had free time, she would sit on it. Will come here.
"The war in Yunzhou has ended, the Goddess Palace has surrendered, the ancestors of the Gu family have fallen, and the Yan army has taken advantage of the chaos in the Western Region to capture most of Yangzhou. A message has been sent over there asking you to open all lines of defense.
The Yan army may take control of Shenjing City at any time. "
"Afu is finally here, haha... It seems that Afu still cares about our feelings and asked us to take the initiative to open the defense line instead of taking action directly."
Sima Ke let out a long breath, seemingly letting go of the last trace of uneasiness in his heart.
With Chen Yuan's current power, even if the Yan army marches straight into Zhongzhou, the Sima family will have no resistance, and the defense line is just a decoration.
It's just that the other forces are worried about the influence. Otherwise, the center of the Jin Dynasty would have been destroyed long ago.
Therefore, Sima Ke was really afraid sometimes, fearing that one day Chen Yuan would not fulfill his previous agreement and destroy the Jin Dynasty, calling him a faint king and destroying him.
For him, this is just a piece of cake.
Now, by sending a message asking him to open his defenses, he was basically acknowledging his previous agreement, giving him a wealthy life and a worry-free life.
"Just be prepared. Maybe within a few months, the Yan army will come to the city."
"Don't worry, Sister Huang, I have asked the people below to make dragon robes based on Ya's father's dragon flag and Heping's usual preferences, and wait for them to arrive in Shenjing City.
Absolutely satisfied. "
Sima Ke laughed. He did not control many rights, and he could only try to gain as much hope for himself within these limited rights as possible.
"You do have a good heart. Don't worry. You and I both know what kind of person King Yan is. He will not kill people in the future. Even if he is just pretending, he will give us peace."
"I'm naturally relieved about this. Let's not talk about the relationship between father and son, just relying on the mother's side..." Sima Ke nodded repeatedly, indicating that his position was always on Chen Yuan's side.
He knew that the imperial sister had completely accepted her fate a long time ago. Her previous insinuations did not get the answer he hoped for, so naturally she would not say anything stupid.
"That's good."
"To be honest, we are both unfortunate and lucky to meet someone like Yafu. These days, when I have nothing to do, I read some books that are banned in the clan.
It is discovered that Yafu has the same style as his ancestors. How is the current situation similar to that of thousands of years ago? The Central Plains is in chaos, surrounded by four enemies, each with their own agenda and killing each other.
How similar is Yafu to Chu Taizu? They are all the kind of heroic figures who emerge once a thousand years to turn the tide, pacify the barbarians, unify the Central Plains, and possess great fortune.
To go against such a person, let alone us, even if it is the sleeping Taizu, I'm afraid..." Sima Ke paused, said no more, and just smiled.
"Just understand... I am only your younger brother. I really don't want you to do anything stupid. If you go against such a person, the only bloodline of our Sima clan will die."
Princess Pingyang said, looking at Sima Ke with a half-smile.
But Sima Ke's heart skipped a beat, and he softly called out with some guilt:
"Sister Royal..."
"Just put those little thoughts aside. Next time, I won't say any more."
After saying that, Princess Pingyang dragged her long skirt and left slowly, leaving behind a silhouette.
Sima Ke was about to cry but had no tears, so he shouted quickly:
"Sister Huang, I really have no second thoughts. I just asked people to go to the imperial mausoleum to offer incense according to the ancestral rules...Sister Huang... please don't misunderstand me..."
I am loyal to King Yan. "
...
Chen Yuan seemed to have sunk into a silent world. There was no sound here, which was more terrifying than falling into the abyss. At first, he was even a little frightened and wanted to escape.
But soon, he thought of what he was doing, quickly calmed down, and completely calmed down his heart.
Chen Yuan, who had practiced for many years and was so calm, even forgot about the passage of time. He felt that he just had a very comfortable and deep sleep.
Since the breakthrough, he has never slept like this. He has forgotten all his worries and abandoned all hatred. He is the only one in the whole world.
Loneliness, silence....
When Chen Yuan opened his eyes subconsciously, the dark world finally changed, and a faint light appeared in front of him, like a thread, lighting up the whole world.
He stretched out his hand and touched it slowly, but the thread penetrated through his body, like nothingness. Gradually... there were more and more threads, covering him.
The scenery in front of him was the restoration of the top of the Tangshan Buddha before the retreat.
His eyes were calm.
The world is still the same world, the human world is still the human world, the heaven and earth are still the same heaven and earth, but... he discovered some differences...

Rest early, good night!
