Chapter 540: Chapter 458: Demon Clan Invades the Underworld

Having seen Ksitigarbha King, Wu Tian had realized that if he indulged in self-satisfaction due to his current cultivation level,

he would eventually end up dead, body destroyed.

With the emergence of a Saint and several evil spirits capable of slaughtering Quasi-Saints, the current situation had become increasingly serious.

As for the calamity instigated by the Demon Clan across the Three Realms, Wu Tian, speaking on behalf of the Dark Demon Realm, found himself somewhat distracted at this moment.

"Cultivate, cultivate..."

Ghost Car saw that his boss had gone back to cultivate and had arranged his affairs, so he also went to cultivate.

The entire Mount Meru was now effectively managed by Buddha of Bright Virtue and Ocean, as everyone else had gone to cultivate.

...

"Ksitigarbha King walked out of Mount Meru safely!"

On Golden Turtle Island, as they were discussing something, the Leader of the Tongtian Sect suddenly spoke up.

Wang Yang was startled. At this time, he had thought that once Ksitigarbha King entered, it would be nearly impossible for him to come out, yet Ksitigarbha King managed to exit safely.

What did this imply?

Wang Yang couldn’t see through it at the moment.

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect could barely foresee what was happening outside Mount Meru; naturally, he couldn’t see what was happening inside.

For the Three Realms, Buddhism was already in decline.

Jieyin, Zhun Ti, and Guanyin had defected to the Expounding Teachings Sect with no Great Luo Taiyi Golden Immortals remaining.

Additionally, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and Ran Deng, three Quasi-Saints, had been captured by Wu Tian, and Buddha of Bright Virtue and Ocean had defected to the Demon Clan.

It could be said that the only ones left were Tathagata, having reincarnated, and Ksitigarbha Pusa, who directly guarded the Underworld.

However, Ksitigarbha Pusa had just entered Mount Meru.

Yet Ksitigarbha King managed to leave, and Wang Yang didn’t think Wu Tian had simply shown mercy and released the other.

"Does Celestial Venerate know the whereabouts of Ksitigarbha Pusa? Did he return to the Underworld or went to Dongsheng Divine Continent?"

Wang Yang looked toward the Leader of the Tongtian Sect, vaguely feeling that this matter must be related to the great calamity of the Three Realms.

Not only did Wang Yang look toward the Leader of the Tongtian Sect, Houtu also looked at him. Ksitigarbha King was related to the Underworld, and as its ruler, she naturally paid great attention to the affairs of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

"That might be difficult. Ksitigarbha Pusa is a Quasi-Saint, monitoring his movements is not easy, and now with the Heavenly Calamity of the Three Realms upon us, all is obscured and unclear."

"I have already telepathically contacted Wa Huang Palace to check if there is any movement from the Expounding Teachings Sect and Buddhism. They have already sequestered themselves in one corner; it’s natural for them to feel some unrest."

"Furthermore, if you are really worried about this Ksitigarbha King, you could directly go to Mount Meru and inquire!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect looked at Wang Yang with slight disdain, "You have met him before, and if it weren’t for you, Wu Tian wouldn’t have succeeded in securing Mount Meru so smoothly."

"In that case, it’s not impossible, but my fallout with Wu Tian over Qiao Ling’er has severed our ties; now, visiting Mount Meru seems inappropriate."

"Besides, given this calamity was mainly caused by the Demon Clan and Wu Tian is the lord of the Dark Demon Realm, visiting now might be risky..."

Wang Yang frowned and said, if it weren’t for the issue with Qiao Ling’er, he surely would have gone.

Houtu, smiling, said, "I think it’s feasible to pay a visit; even if it does alert them, it might also delay their plans, making the Demon Clan cautious!"

Although Houtu was originally from the Shamanic Tribe, the many years in the Underworld had broadened her considerations.

Tongtian also looked at Wang Yang.

"That might indeed be feasible!"

Wang Yang nodded.

At that moment, Tongtian’s expression changed.

He frowned deeply.

"What’s wrong, Celestial Venerate?"

Wang Yang looked at the frowning Leader of the Tongtian Sect.

Houtu also looked toward the Leader of the Tongtian Sect.

"Just now, Nuwa reported that the Expounding Teachings Sect and Buddhism have both disappeared. All disciples of the Expounding Teachings Sect are missing, and they can’t be found anywhere in Dongsheng Divine Continent!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect said, his eyebrows deeply furrowed.

"What?"

Upon hearing this, both Wang Yang and Houtu showed shocked expressions.

"Demon Clan members have now appeared south of the Southern Continent Jambudvipa; clearly, the Demon Clan is ready and could seize the entire Three Realms at any moment!"

"Now with the Expounding Teachings Sect and Buddhism retreating, we inevitably fall into a passive position!"

Wang Yang said with a frown.

"The Expounding Teachings Sect and Buddhism truly look out for themselves, just to preserve themselves, they actually just left the Four Great Continents. They are indeed schemers!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect couldn’t help but feel immense anger.

After all, the battle in Beiju Luzhou was ultimately about their various sects.

Yet now, as the Demon Clan descended, it was a matter requiring the attention of the entire Three Realms, but their departure showed they hadn’t considered them at all.

Of course, perhaps they still had Saints among them, but in the entire Three Realms, what of the countless innocents?

"The situation south of the Southern Continent Jambudvipa, I will inform Haotian, and he will naturally handle it, it should be of no concern for now. However, the Underworld is already in grave peril, and we need to properly discuss this!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect, being a Saint, soon recovered.

"Houtu, it seems you must temporarily close the Six Paths of Reincarnation to prevent the situation from becoming uncontrollable. Also, return to the Underworld to preside over the situation as soon as possible!"

Although Houtu was also a Quasi-Saint, being only a step away from becoming a Saint, especially in the Underworld, because of her reincarnation into the cycle, she gained merit that brought her infinitely close to Saint status in the Underworld.
