Chapter 607: 331 Heavenly Master_2

"You!"

Lian Yue’s face was covered with frost as she said coldly, "Such arrogance, aren’t you afraid of twisting your tongue? If you’re capable, let’s have a one-on-one fight!"

"Hahaha!"

Pingyangzi laughed heartily, his words laced with scorn. "I heard that on your way here, you were ambushed by a group of heretical demons and nearly lost your lives, only to be saved by some Buddhist folks."

He clicked his tongue a couple of times, grimacing, "Can’t you be a little more impressive? You’ve lost all face for our Taoism.

"Alas, I might as well beg you, the Five Elements Sect and Taiyi Sect, never to claim you are people of Taoism again. I, Heavenly Master Sect, truly am ashamed to associate with you."

Enraged, Lian Yue flipped her hand and took out seven talismans, arranging them in a row, each lighting up and emitting a seven-colored radiance.

In an instant, the immense Vigorous Force fluctuated through the area, startling everyone.

Dozens of gazes shot over at once.

"Oh, resorting to violence because you can’t win the argument?"

Pingyangzi leaped backward, biting his right index finger and placing it against his forehead.

Immediately, blood stained his forehead.

The bright red blood converged to form a vertical eye with circular pupils, utterly mystical.

"Heavenly Mechanism Eye!"

Pingyangzi’s lips curled up in an eerily sinister smile.

His gaze swept over the seven talismans, instantly seeing through everything. He realized, "So it’s the Seven Star Sword Talisman. Although this set of talismans is remarkable, it is still not enough to trouble me."

With that, he planted his left foot firmly, while his right foot traced a circle in front of him.

"Magic Formation·Drawing the Ground as a Prison!"

The traced circle on the ground suddenly lit up, and Vigorous Force surged, solidifying into a circular cage.

At this sight!

"A thought into formation, impressive!"

An amazed chorus of gasps reverberated around the place.

Lian Yue’s eyes flickered as she suddenly retracted the seven talismans, her lips curling into a mocking sneer.

"You..."

Pingyangzi was momentarily stunned at her response, and then veins throbbed on his forehead.

Lian Yue spoke with calm disdain, "Once the Drawing the Ground as a Prison formation is activated, it can withstand attacks for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, indeed extraordinary. However, this formation has a flaw; it cannot be easily dissolved."

Lian Yue stepped forward mockingly, "You might as well wait obediently in the cage, I have no interest in keeping you company."

"..."

Pingyangzi’s face stiffened, his complexion darkening immensely.

"Hahaha, this is what they call shooting oneself in the foot!"

Lian Quan was incredibly pleased, deliberately swaggering about, breezing past like the wind, striding away.

Fang Zhixing couldn’t help but smile without saying a word, making his way over to her.

Soon, they arrived beneath a pavilion.

"Lord An, please come in." The eunuch said with a smile, pushing open the grand doors.

Fang Zhixing entered the hall with confidence and immediately saw five figures.

Three men and two women, each with a distinct appearance.

There was a white-haired old man, a gracefully-aged woman, and a youthful boy.

But Fang Zhixing instantly sensed that these five people possessed formidable auras, no less than Pingyangzi, all experts of the Hundred Cows Realm.

It seemed that the Heavenly Master Sect placed great importance on this Buddhist event, assigning six powerful individuals to attend.

"I am An Baopu, greetings to all seniors and fellow daoists." Fang Zhixing bowed casually.

"Welcome, Fellow Daoist An."

The white-haired elder stepped forward, introducing himself, "I am Yun Songzi, and these four are Kong Qingzi, Qing Xiazi, Yuan Xuzi, and Chunyangzi."

He said with a smile, "We also have another companion called Pingyangzi, whom you have probably already met. Actually, he’s not a bad person, just a little bit sharp-tongued, and I hope you won’t take it to heart."

Fang Zhixing repeatedly assured, "Not at all, the people of the Taoist world are one family."

All seated themselves.

Yun Songzi broke the silence, "To speak frankly, we invited Fellow Daoist An here to discuss a significant matter."

Fang Zhixing had guessed as much and replied without changing his expression, "Please speak plainly."

Yun Songzi elaborated, "The Ancient Imperial Forbidden Zone is about to open, if nothing unexpected happens, it will be in three days."

Fang Zhixing replied, "You wish to enter the Ancient Imperial Forbidden Zone for exploration?"

Yun Songzi nodded, "Of course, we want to go. However, the Ancient Imperial Forbidden Zone is peculiar; every time it opens, it only allows a small number of people to enter, with limited places."

Fang Zhixing expressed surprise, "No more than how many people?"

Yun Songzi answered, "Based on preliminary estimates, it won’t be more than twelve people."

Fang Zhixing blinked in confusion, "Eh, how do you know this? If I’m not mistaken, the last time the Ancient Imperial Forbidden Zone was opened was five hundred years ago."

Yun Songzi fell silent for a moment, then explained, "During the opening five hundred years ago, twelve people also entered the Ancient Imperial Forbidden Zone, but only one person came out alive.

Afterward, that person was pursued by various factions, and to protect themselves, they gradually disclosed some vague information."

Fang Zhixing frowned and asked, "Who was that person, and are they still alive?"

Yun Songzi said gravely, "That person was none other than the Great Black Buddha Mother!"

Fang Zhixing was taken aback, "I had not expected that such a thorn in the side of Buddhism had such a fortuitous encounter."

Yun Songzi sighed, "The twelve places were precisely what the Great Black Buddha Mother divulged, and we trust that she spoke the truth."

Fang Zhixing nodded in understanding, pondering, "I’ve heard that people from Confucianism have also arrived. If Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism were to share these twelve places, each would only get a maximum of four."

Yun Songzi agreed, "Don’t forget, this is on Buddhist turf, and for us to secure more places is like snatching food from a tiger’s mouth."

Fang Zhixing accepted the point, spreading his hands, "If people like the Great Black Buddha Mother and other heretic demons also want a share, I’m afraid we might not get all of the twelve places."

"Exactly!"

Yun Songzi nodded repeatedly, and then looked intently at Fang Zhixing, inquiring, "May I ask what are your thoughts, Fellow Daoist An?"

After contemplating for a moment, Fang Zhixing firmly said, "I am only representing the Five Elements Sect at this conference, and I do not wish to meddle in many affairs, nor am I interested in setting foot in the Ancient Imperial Forbidden Zone."
