The monk looked carefree, but he was still very meticulous.
However, when Zen Master Xuan Bei reached the entrance of the Sect Master’s Hall, he realized that other than Zhao Tianyi, there were two other people inside. Moreover, they were people he did not know.
What was going on?!
“Cough, cough!” Zen Master Xuan Bei
coughed lightly when he saw this. Then, he pressed his palms together and said, “Amitabha, this poor monk, Xuan Bei, has come to pay my respects to Benefactor Zhao Tianyi.”
“Damn monk, get in. There’s no need to pretend in front of Immortal Venerable.” Zhao Tianyi’s voice sounded very casual. “…Immortal Venerable?” Zen Master Xuan Bei was stunned for a moment before he seemed to understand.
After walking into the Sect Master’s Hall, he looked at Hui Shi and then at Cui Heng. In the end, he bowed very respectfully to Cui Heng and said, “Xuan Bei, the Abbot of the Pure Land Buddhist Hall, greets the Immortal Venerable.”
“Why are you so sure it’s me?” Cui Heng chuckled.
“The person beside you only has a respectful attitude towards you, and Zhao Tianyi doesn’t dare to look straight at you,” Xuan Bei said respectfully. “I believe you’re the real person behind that invitation.”
“You can say that.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and smiled.
“May I ask, Immortal Venerable, why did you gather all of us?” Zen Master Xuan Bei’s temperament was very straightforward. He had always been direct and would ask bluntly if he had any questions. It was the same now.
“To let you see through some people clearly.” Cui Heng smiled faintly and said, “Zen Master should have some feelings about certain matters, right?”
“You mean…” Zen Master Xuan Bei’s eyes widened when he heard this. He looked at Zhao Tianyi beside him and saw him nod. He said in extreme shock, “Have you investigated those traitors who secretly colluded with the Outer World?!”
Clearly, he had long interacted with Zhao Tianyi and knew that many Mystic Palaces and Buddhist monasteries had already sided with the Outer World.
“That’s right.” Zhao Tianyi nodded and smiled. “With Immortal Venerable around, you and I can just watch the show from the side. They’ll jump out soon.”
“Amitabha!” Zen Master Xuan Bei chanted a Buddhist proclamation and bowed very
respectfully to Cui Heng again. “Thank you, Immortal Venerable, for returning Taihong Star to a peaceful world.”
“It’s just a simple task.” Cui Heng smiled. “A simple task…” Zen Master Xuan Bei opened his mouth, not knowing how to
answer.
Actually, from the moment Taihong Star was repeatedly attacked a hundred years ago, they had already known about the existence of the Outer World, and they also knew that some people on Taihong Star had sided with the Outer World.
However, who these people were and how to find them had always been the biggest
problem for them.
Now, the Immortal Venerable actually said that it was a simple task.
The danger seemed too exaggerated.
“This time, we gathered all the forces because we wanted these traitors to be exposed in
front of everyone,” Zhao Tianyi said in a low voice. “We wanted to give them no chance to quibble and no room to turn the tables.”
“That’s good, that’s good.” Zen Master Xuan Bei nodded and said with a smile, “Right. As
the saying goes, one should kill a tiger thoroughly. There can’t be any future trouble.”
“That group of people are all here.” At this moment, Cui Heng looked outside and smiled. “We should go out.”
“Yes, Immortal Venerable!”
“Yes, Immortal Venerable!”
Zhao Tianyi and Zen Master Xuan Bei said in unison.
…
At this moment, the meeting hall of the Heaven Chapter Mystic Palace was
unprecedentedly lively.
This should be the first time in thousands of years that all the leaders of the top factions on Taihong Star had gathered. The 21
Immortal Sects, the three Buddhist monasteries, and the two Mystic Palaces were all here.
Only the Sect Master of the Heaven Chapter Mystic Palace, Zhao Tianyi, and the Abbot of the Pure Land Buddhist Hall, Zen Master
Xuan Bei, had yet to arrive.
The Sages of the Heaven Chapter Mystic Palace stood in the corner nervously. They had never seen such a scene. More than 20 Sage Kings were gathered, and there were three Creators.
This was unprecedented!
Seats were placed in the meeting hall. Zen Master Shantong, Yue Canghai, and another Creator sat at the front with unfriendly
expressions.
“This Zhao Tianyi is really arrogant. He actually wants us to wait for him.” Yue Canghai suddenly spoke and sneered. “Could it be that he thinks that he can firmly
suppress us just because he has hooked up with an expert?”
“Amitabha. Benefactor Yue, don’t say that. I don’t think Benefactor Zhao is that kind of person.” Zen Master Shantong pressed his palms together and chanted a Buddhist proclamation. He smiled and said, “However, I’ve indeed heard that Benefactor Zhao has befriended an expert and has some connections with everyone here.”
As soon as these words were spoken, immediately attracted the attention of many
people.
The powerful laws contained in the invitation shocked even the Creators, and the Sage Kings felt incomparable fear. Without thinking, they knew that this was definitely not something Zhao Tianyi could do. There was definitely an expert behind the scenes.
Those who had not defected to the other side and had not discussed this matter in the Imperial Sky Divine Palace were very curious about this expert’s identity.
“I’ve heard about this too,” Ye Zhuo said at the right time. He smiled and said, “It’s said that this expert was Hongwu’s teacher back then. He might be a Lord of the Heavens.”
“What, a Lord of the Heavens?!” “How is that possible? The Heaven Realm has long disappeared, and no one has been given the authority of the Heavens. Where did this Lord of the Heavens come from?!” “Impossible, it’s impossible for a Lord of the Heavens to suddenly appear!”
A stone stirred up a thousand waves. The meeting hall immediately became noisy, and
many people did not believe it. Of course, there were also a few people who panicked.
Although these people did not side with the Outer World, they had once targeted Hongwu.
Now that they heard that Hongwu’s teacher had appeared and was a Lord of the Heavens, they naturally had mixed feelings and fear. “That’s right. I’m indeed his teacher.”
At this moment, Cui Heng’s voice came from outside, immediately causing the noisy meeting hall to fall silent. Everyone shut their mouths and looked at the door in unison.
Then, Cui Heng walked at the front with Hui Shi beside him. Zhao Tianyi and Zen Master Xuan Bei followed behind him.
This order immediately made the gazes of
everyone present turn solemn. It was obvious that Zhao Tianyi and Zen Master Xuan Bei tacitly agreed that the two people in front were stronger than them.
Could it really be a Lord of the Heavens?! This was too terrifying and unbelievable! The moment Cui Heng appeared, Zen Master Shantong made a very hidden gesture at Yue
Canghai. Moreover, only the two of them knew what it meant.
He gestured for the other party to prepare to
begin the sacrifice.
“The group of people in the meeting hall have already been thrown into chaos by my words just now. Now that they’ve seen this person
personally appear, it’s the point where their hearts are the weakest, and it’s also the best
opportunity to offer the sacrifices!”
Zen Master Shantong’s eyes suddenly lit up with a ferocious light. He gritted his teeth and roared, “Begin!!”
This sudden roar suddenly broke the dead silence in the meeting hall.
Immediately after, two extremely dense scarlet lights burst out from Zen Master Shantong and Yue Canghai.
At the same time, Ye Zhuo and the other 15 people from the Immortal sects, as well as the people from the Pagoda Buddhist Hall and the Great Bright Buddhist Hall, emitted a scarlet
light.
Rumble!
The void suddenly trembled, emitting deafening thunder. The outline of an illusory palace actually appeared out of thin air in the sky of the meeting hall, as if it was wrapped in endless power and was about to crush
down!
“What is this?!”
“Stop, what are you doing!”
“Not good, I can’t move!”
Many people exclaimed that they could not
move.
They were incomparably shocked to discover that at some point, they had already been tightly bound by balls of scarlet light and
could not move at all.
“Sacrifice! This is a sacrifice. They want to
sacrifice us!”
The Creator realm expert was the first to discover that something was wrong. He
looked at Zen Master Shantong, Yue Canghai, and the others in shock and anger and roared, “What are you trying to do!” However, at this moment, Zen Master
Shantong and Yue Canghai ignored him. Their gazes were focused on Cui Heng and Zhao Tianyi.
“Zhao Tianyi, and Hongwu’s teacher, you’re too arrogant. Everyone in the meeting hall
