Chapter 524: Chapter 450 Redefining the Three Realms_2

After all, nobody knew what Wang Yang was capable of; he was an unpredictable factor.

Originally, he could change the fate of the Journey to the West’s Calamity, so today he might also be able to alter the course of the battle of Various Sects.

If someone had told him that there was someone who could break the Minor World with life created by Saint Taiqing, he would not have believed it, but now with Saint Taiqing gone, perhaps it was not impossible.

For this reason, while Yuanshi Celestial Venerable hesitated, he felt that the departure of Saint Taiqing suddenly became the last straw for their Expounding Teachings Sect to lose the final battle.

"Yuanshi Celestial Venerable, if we really fight all out, eighty percent of your Expounding Teachings Sect’s Quasi-Saints will fall, yet I am still confident that not a single one of my Cutting Teachings Sect disciples will die!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect slowly spoke again, each word striking right at Yuanshi Celestial Venerable’s heart.

The eyes of the Expounding Teachings Sect disciples behind Yuanshi Celestial Venerable grew dim; they also felt that some things were impossible,

perhaps just as Tongtian had said, they might all die here, while the Cutting Teachings Sect could survive without losses.

This made Yuanshi Celestial Venerable feel even more desolate inside; his own disciples no longer had the will to fight, and if they continued, only heavy losses awaited their side.

After all, without even the desire to fight, going into battle might only be like fish on the chopping board, completely at the mercy of others.

Really seeing all his disciples dead was not something Yuanshi Celestial Venerable wanted to witness.

"Taiqing, you have failed me!"

Yuanshi Celestial Venerable expressed his grief and anger.

Seeing that his side was already hard-pressed to form a fighting force, in contrast, the Cutting Teachings Sect disciples were eager to try, almost wishing to fight three hundred more rounds.

In such circumstances, even though he was a part of the Saint, he was also out of expedients.

"Yuanshi Celestial Venerable, you know the situation now."

"If you don’t want your Expounding Teachings Sect to end here, then stop here, and I can choose to give you a way out!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect slowly said this in front of many Expounding Teachings Sect disciples, remembering how the Cutting Teachings Sect had once failed, wasn’t it the same for the Expounding Teachings Sect?

Such words naturally aroused anger.

However, no one dared to speak out loud, feeling somewhat disillusioned indeed.

As for victory, it’s always based on a small disparity between both sides.

Now, if you really were to keep all the Quasi-Saints from the Expounding Teachings Sect, the Cutting Teachings Sect would at most suffer a few losses and injuries, but it certainly wouldn’t reach a mutually destructive situation.

Thus, the Cutting Teachings Sect had every right to speak in such a manner.

"My Expounding Teachings Sect is not afraid of battle!"

Although Yuanshi Celestial Venerable knew it was futile, he still spoke very firmly.

Yet behind this firmness, there was no confidence whatsoever.

"Are the two of you also willing to continue? If you keep fighting, your Buddhism will really be gone."

"Just with Tathagata reincarnating, do you think Qiao Ling’er will be able to reincarnate smoothly when you are not around?"

Seeing Yuanshi Celestial Venerable tough as a stone in a dung pit, stinky and hard, Tongtian can no longer bother with Yuanshi Celestial Venerable.

If it weren’t for fear of the Expounding Teachings Sect’s final counterattack, he would have chosen to keep them all here, but not today, he shifted his attention to Zhun Ti and Jieyin.

If it had been before, regardless of what Tongtian said, they would not have chosen to stop.

But now everything was clear, and even Saint Taiqing had left.

Even Wang Yang, who had been silent all this while, seemed to have grown stronger in power.

They felt that a cloud of gloom always enveloped this chess game of the Three Realms.

Not just them, Tongtian also had this feeling at this moment.

It was because of this feeling in his heart that Tongtian chose to preserve the strength of the Cutting Teachings Sect and to stop here.

Actually, by choosing to stop, there were also people in his camp who were dissatisfied, seeing victory within reach yet having to let the tiger return to the mountain.

Each of them felt somewhat uneasy.

But Tongtian’s prestige in the Cutting Teachings Sect was too high, so even if there were dissatisfactions, no one would say anything.

"My Buddhism withdraws from the battle of Various Sects, this battle, my Buddhism admits defeat!"

Jieyin sighed and spoke helplessly.

He did not have the desperation of Yuanshi Celestial Venerable to break the net, because Buddhism was truly at a life or death crossroad.

As for the New Buddhism established by Xuanzang, Zhun Ti and Jieyin were clear that it was no longer their Buddhism.

In such a situation, preserving oneself is certainly good.

No one wants to throw away their life for something they know to be impossible.

Perhaps the bodies Zhun Ti, Jieyin, and the others had were just avatars, and it didn’t matter.

But now, with celestial secrets in chaos and loss of connection to the Three Realms within the Chaos, if this avatar was lost too, they would completely lose their connection to the Three Realms.

Even returning to their real bodies, they would still be just ordinary saints unable to make further progress for the rest of their lives.

"My Human Teachings Sect is withdrawing from the battle among the sects. We admit defeat in this battle."

The Grand Dharma Master Xuandu also came forward and said, along with him stood Shennong, a disciple from the Taiqing Sect.

The Saint Taiqing had already left, so there was no point in the two of them remaining here.

To be able to leave this place was naturally good.

At the words of Grand Dharma Master Xuandu, Tongtian laughed, and the members of the Cutting Teachings Sect laughed as well.

In the field, only Yuanshi Celestial Venerable’s expression grew uglier, not expecting to end up deserted by all in the end.

Yuanshi Celestial Venerable knew very clearly that if he continued to act alone, it wouldn’t just be Buddhism and the Human Teachings Sect leaving, but how many of his own Expounding Teachings Sect disciples would genuinely be willing to battle to the death?

Moreover, how many capable fighters were left among his Expounding Teachings Sect disciples?

Not to mention, Master Yuding and Red Fairy would definitely be the first two to die.

As for Yun Zhongzi and the South Pole Elderly Immortal, they wouldn’t last long under the siege of numerous Quasi-Saints.

Perhaps they had no means to kill Yuanshi Celestial Venerable, but as long as they could engage him, the Quasi-Saints of the Expounding Teachings Sect would also perish in this battle.

Think back to the beginning, there were seven Quasi-Saints from the Expounding Teachings Sect, plus four from the Western Direction, three from the Human Teachings Sect, a total of fourteen Quasi-Saints striding forth confidently, looking down on everyone.

But who could have guessed that Ding Teachings Sect would produce an evil spirit like Wang Yang?

Not only did Four Quasi-Saints from the Cutting Teachings Sect appear, but four from the Shamanic Tribe as well.

Even the always weaker Wa Huang Palace had three Quasi-Saints present.

With the arrival of Wu Tian and three others, as well as the Loose Cultivators from the Southern Immortal Volcano’s Phoenix and Kong Xuan, eighteen Quasi-Saints completely turned the tables, gaining absolute advantage both in quantity and quality.

Now, not one Quasi-Saint from the Cutting Teachings Sect’s side was dead, yet out of fourteen from the Expounding Teachings Sect, only eleven remained; one died, one fled, and one was trapped, leaving the Expounding Teachings Sect chilled to the core.

"In this battle among the sects, my Expounding Teachings Sect admits defeat!"

Yuanshi Celestial Venerable, gritting his teeth, said bitterly.

All along, he believed he could surely beat the Leader of the Tongtian Sect, both in cultivation level and in sect strength.

Especially after cunningly triumphing over the Leader of the Tongtian Sect in the Divine Enthronement battle, making the Expounding Teachings Sect greatly flourish, Yuanshi Celestial Venerable felt that his sect was truly the number one sect in the Three Realms.

This battle among the sects was to plunder fate, and he could have led his disciples to completely erase the Cutting Teachings Sect from existence, thus after absorbing their fate, his sect would have firmly held the position of the number one sect in the Three Realms.

But who knew, it would end up like this.

The Cutting Teachings Sect will definitely prosper, but now his Expounding Teachings Sect can’t even see a single Daluo Golden Immortal and fears it might take tens of thousands of years to produce another Quasi-Saint.

During these tens of thousands of years, if there is any negligence, his Expounding Teachings Sect might even be completely annihilated.

However, after Yuanshi Celestial Venerable announced his defeat, the expressions of Red Fairy and Xuanyuan relaxed considerably.

None of them wanted to continue fighting; although admitting defeat means losing face, it wouldn’t cost them their millennia of cultivation.

"Since that is the case, let’s conclude this battle among the sects!"

Tongtian said loudly.

As he spoke, everyone noticed that the fate belonging to the Expounding Teachings Sect, Buddhism, and Human Teachings Sect suddenly fell, and the excess fate appeared on the Leader of the Tongtian Sect.

With this fate, Tongtian did not keep it all within the Cutting Teachings Sect.

Not to mention the always allied Wa Huang Palace, but also the Shamanic Tribe, the Demon Clan, Wang Yang, and Sun Wukong, Tongtian also distributed fate to them.

Even to casual cultivators like Kong Xuan, Tongtian generously shared the fate.

This move naturally brought him everyone’s goodwill, for after all their efforts if they could gain some benefits, they were very willing.

"Since it is so, we can now discuss the division of the Three Realms!"

After Tongtian distributed the fate, he did not allow Yuanshi Celestial Venerable and the others to leave.

The greatest issue of this great battle among the sects was the redistribution of the Three Realms.
