Chapter 797 Candidates for the Battle
After some controversy, it was decided to introduce the four or five declining earth immortals, the heavenly immortals competed, and then the human immortal realm competition.
The battle of Yuan Shen naturally cannot be carried out in Kunlun Mountain. Even if the space of the earthly immortal world is stable and the world's membrane is thick, Kunlun Mountain is the ancestor of thousands of mountains and has deep roots.
But with the full force of the True Immortal Yuanshen, even if it is not like the great God Gonggong who crashed into Buzhou Mountain in the past, it will definitely turn this place into a mess and completely rotten.
Not to mention that the person who took action this time was an earthly immortal, a powerful person of the heavenly immortal level.
After the duel, Yu Qingzong had to start preparing for the move.
Generally speaking, most battles between true immortals take place in the void or in the sky.
Just like the last time Tang Yuan and Qi Shanfu fought in Lianxiaotian, this time the battlefield was also chosen in Lianxiaotian.
Lianxiao is the seventh heaven. Except for the true immortals of the Yuan Shen who have declined three times or above, those with lower cultivation levels cannot even get close.
Last time, several true immortals protected the gap, but this time, a black and yellow exquisite pagoda of heaven and earth stood across the two days, preventing the gap from closing.
And all the primordial spirits were protecting their disciples and watching the battle in Zixiao.
As for the other casual cultivators, they naturally have no chance to watch this battle between true immortals. You must know that if there is no one to protect you, and those with low cultivation levels rashly look directly at the true immortal, they may even be in danger of turning away.
Let’s talk about the people who participated in this fight.
The two Five Decline Souls on the Taoist side are naturally the unknown Taoist from the Shangqing Sect and Xuan Zhenzi from the Taiqing Sect.
These two powerful immortals did not watch the evolution of the Supreme Virtue World with the other immortals just now. Instead, they were summoned by Taoist Master Fu Ming.
At this Jiuzhou Dharma Conference, only two Dao Lords were present, so it would be a bit monotonous for the two of them to drink together.
Therefore, Taoist Fu Ming found two immortals, Wuming Taoist and Xuan Zhenzi, to accompany Zhuzhao old ghost.
The Earthly Immortal Realm has reached its end, and the number of people who have become Heavenly Immortals is almost as rare as that of Tao Lords.
After searching the entire world, there were only a few dozen people. Therefore, after the unknown Taoist experienced the decline of Taoism in the past, the Demon Sect's plans were repeatedly frustrated because it was difficult to find matching combat power.
Because at that time, Sang Chan and Lotus Terrace had not yet awakened, and the ancestor of all insects would not easily leave Shiwan Mountain and only walk around the world with his body.
Or is it because many major events that can change the fate of the immortal world have happened one after another, making the end of the world one step closer.
In this way, under the change of calamity, those old and immortal things that fell into deep sleep and awaited the great calamity gradually woke up.
As for the four declining earthly immortals, there are many more than the five declining heavenly immortals.
Except for the host, Yun Zhenzi, who naturally took up one of the other spots.
The competition for another spot is quite fierce, and there are many people who meet the requirements, such as Fang Xisheng of Shangqing Sect, Zhang Daoji of Longhu Dao, Yi Mengzi of Nanhua Sect, Wang Yang of Shenxiao Sect, etc.
But in the end, the spot still fell on Zhang Daoji. In terms of strength, realm, magical powers, and spiritual treasures, he was close to the limit of the Earth Immortal.
If it weren’t for the decline of Taoism and the mystery, no one knows when he would suddenly have enlightenment. This old heavenly master would also have achieved the status of heavenly immortal.
Looking at the Demon Sect, the Five Great Heavenly Demons are naturally the Sea of Blood, and each of the Jiuyou Path comes from one of them. Sang Chan and Jiu Yuan are also the people in charge of the two paths in recent years.
It has to be said that although Jiuyuan was played many times by Tang Yuan, he still penetrated the gate of Taoist heart and became the only five-depleted power in the past ten thousand years.
Tang Yuan suspected that maybe his chaos in the world of four spirits caused some changes in the two inheritances of Qinglong and White Tiger obtained by Jiuyuan. It is impossible to say that there is also the plan of Emperor Ziwei.
You must know that Jiuyuan in his previous life did not break through the five declines until he became Tang Laomo's Blood God Puppet. After being hit one after another in this life, he has achieved something, which is strange no matter how you look at it.
The Shangqing lineage can take Tang Yuan as its son, and other great Luo people and even those with great supernatural powers can naturally make their son with others. After resurrecting his life and encountering many incidents, Tang Yuan would not be like in his previous life, thinking that Taoist Da Luo could not make any nonsense before he reached the end of his calamity.
Even if the real body is sleeping, or active in the past, the future or even chaos, it will not delay them from controlling everything.
As for the two four declining true immortals of the Demonic Way, they are not from Blood Sea and Jiuyou. But the Great Joy Bodhisattva of the Great Joy Temple and the Evil Sword Ancestor of Mount Wutai.
However, the strength of the two people is outstanding among the earthly immortals. If we really talk about it, they are stronger than Fang Xisheng and Wang Yang.
As for Buddhism, the five most powerful ones are naturally Zen Master Huiji, and the old monk of Jialan Temple who appeared in the secret realm of Chiki in the past and later escaped from the realm of Tang Yuan with the help of Tianzu.
Tang Yuan didn't know much about this person. In his previous life, when the old demon Tang was conquering the immortal world, there was no trace of this old monk. He didn't know whether he passed away or went to another world.
But according to the clues that Tang Yuan found, this old monk is probably really a monk who served the true Buddha and Bodhisattva in the past. He is incredibly old.
If it is as Tang Yuan guessed, then this one may be the most noteworthy among the many Five Declined Immortals this time.
As for the four declining earth immortals, Buddhism is also called Anagami Arhat. One of them comes from the Pure Land of Whirlpool, and his Dharma name is in the sky. One person comes from the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, and his dharma name is Huineng.
The structure of Buddhism is not like that of Taoism. Each sect has its own lineage. Even if it is inherited from one Taoist ancestor, each one does its own thing. There is no direct lineage of the Three Pure Ones to speak of as the superior sect.
However, all Buddhist temples actually belong to the five pure lands, the Pure Land of Utmost Bliss, the Pure Land of Maitreya, the Pure Land of Lazuli, Akho Buddha and the Pure Land of Whirlpool.
Of course, there are actually only four pure lands in Buddhism, namely the Pure Land of Amitabha in the West, the Pure Land of Maitreya Buddha, the Pure Land of Wonderful Joy in the East of Akho Buddha, and the Pure Land of Pure Glaze World in the East of Medicine Buddha.
The world of Whirlpool is the world taught by Sakyamuni, and can also be understood as the world of heavens and worlds.
In the words of Buddhism, because of the deep evil power of all living beings, it is called the Five Turbid Evil World, also known as the Dirty Land and the Pure Land opposite.
However, the place where Sakyamuni became a Buddhist should be regarded as a pure land, so it is called the Pure Land of Whirlpool.
The four pure lands and the whirling pure land are actually two concepts. However, when they spread to all heavens and all realms, they were collectively called the five pure lands, each representing the inheritance of the five manifest Buddhas.
As for the Brahma Pure Land of the ancient Buddha Deng Deng, it is not a Sutra of All Realms and has no inheritance, so it is not included in the five pure lands.
Nowadays, there are only two major inheritances in the earthly immortal world: the Pure Land of Whirlpool and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.
For example, the Pure Land Sect, the Vajra Temple, and the Dharma-Xiang Consciousness-only Sect all belong to these two pure lands. There may be distinctions within the West Desert, but when it comes to the outside world, they are only divided into certain pure lands.
I’ve talked about Buddhism, let’s talk about demons again.
The demon clan has only one of the five most powerful powers, and that is Qiongqi, the current master of the Great Wilderness Demon Court. This demon cannot be underestimated. At the very least, it is an existence on the same level as the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects and the Ghost Emperor of Yinshan. Moreover, Qiongqi is the bloodline of the ancient god. When it comes to dignity, he is even better than the pure-blooded true dragon.
Over the years, the blood of the true dragon has been diluted a lot. It is really doubtful how much of it is still passed down from the ancestral dragon.
But Qiongqi may have only had three or five in hundreds of thousands of years. Because only pure blood that is bred from close relatives can be called Qiongqi.
As for the origins of the Four Declined Great Demons, they are also quite extraordinary. One is the Qingxian, and the other is the Husband. Their bloodlines can be traced back to the ancient times, the gods and kings of the Taiyi Divine Court!
Of course, after the human race defeated the Taiyi Divine Court, they first called them strange beasts, and then called them monsters.
Compared with the three religions and the demon clan, the dragon clan and the side sect of the casual cultivators do not have five declining heavenly immortals, only four declining earthly immortals.
The dragon clan is the two dragon kings of the East and West Seas, and their strength can be called the touchstone among the earthly immortals.
On the other side of the casual cultivator are Qingping Zhenjun of Luofu, and Yunhu Sanren, who is now known as the number one casual cultivator in the immortal world.
This title belonged to the unknown Taoist before, but after he returned to the Shangqing Dynasty, it fell on the Sanren of Yunhu.
