Too much fruit

Chapter 718

On the flying island, on the top of a mountain where a waterfall was cascading, Jiang Li activated the Eight Scenes. One after another, hexagrams surrounded the big red star, forming layers of formations that concealed the faintly emanating fierce power.

Then, Jiang Li clasped his hands together again, and the formation closed, covering the big star, which gradually disappeared from his sight.

This is a powerful weapon for this trip and cannot be exposed easily.

As Chiyou's flag disappeared, Gongsun Qingyue and Yu Shi Yuanjun both breathed a sigh of relief.

One of them practiced the Drought God Palm, and the other practiced the Yinglong Transformation. The source of their skills and the master of their weapons were their great enemies, so much so that they couldn't help but feel wary when facing the flag of Chiyou.

Especially Master Yu, who is carrying the Yinglong Dao Fruit with her at this moment, so she needs to be extra careful.

Now that Jiang Li cast a spell to cover the big star, Rain Master was no longer as cautious and restrained as before. He relaxed and looked around and said, "We are almost in Yongzhou, why haven't the people arrived yet?"

Generally speaking, Jiang Li prefers to sneak into the village without firing a gun. This time he drove directly to Yongzhou with great fanfare, and there was naturally a reason.

First, I want to send a signal to some people so that they don’t have to wait any longer;

The second is to show the traces and let the allies come.

Tan Wuwei betrayed the Mo Sect and secretly joined the Buddhist Kingdom. He even used the last war to convert hundreds of thousands of souls and was promoted to the third rank in one fell swoop. His actions and intentions were not tolerated by the Mo Sect. If Mo Sect's Juzi had not been severely injured by Huang Tian first, Tan Wuwei would definitely not have left so easily even if he was promoted to the third rank.

The Mo Sect will certainly not tolerate such traitors and will do its best to clean up the sect.

If other forces had their own people defect and be promoted to the third rank, they would definitely consider it. After all, it was the third rank, the highest rank in the world today, and it was not so easy to clear it. If you were not careful, it might cause great losses to yourself.

But Mo Men is obviously not among them.

This force inherited Mohism, and apart from anything else, they are really iron-headed.

The Mo Sect will definitely participate in this war with the Buddhist Kingdom.

Jiang Li is now waiting for someone from Mo Sect to come.

But before the people from Mo Men arrived, two different auras came towards the flying island at the same time.

One was upright and sharp, and the fierce sword energy made Jiang Li raise his eyebrows; the other was mysterious and unpredictable, deep and distant, making it hard to grasp.

The two energies were very different, going in opposite directions, but they came together and landed on the island, revealing the figures of a man and a woman.

The man was dressed in a simple green shirt, with a long sword on his waist and a sharp sword between his eyebrows. It was Li Qinglian, whom he had not seen for a long time. Since the Liangzhou incident, Jiang Li had not seen him for a long time, and usually contacted him through Niutou.

Because of this, Niu Tou felt that he had lost the favor of God and could no longer compete with Xiaotian, the dog.

As for the other one, she was a very strange woman.

A golden hairpin with a carved snake head is inserted into her long black hair. Her hair hangs down to the side of her face, contrasting with her jade-white face. Her jade-like skin and scarlet eyes give people a strong sense of inhumanity, yet she exudes a demonic charm.

She was wearing a royal blue dress with the top loosely opened and draped over her arms, revealing her shoulders and a blue tube top. The bottom of her dress was high-slit, and her snow-white skin and a pair of bare feet could be seen as she walked.

"Heavenly charm..." Yu Shi Yuanjun showed a rare serious expression.

"Oh?"

The woman looked over when she heard the voice. She held the jade pipe lightly in her left hand and took a puff, exhaling the light blue smoke. She looked at Master Yu with interest, "It seems that Sister Yuanjun also has a status in my sect. She recognized me at first sight. I have been cultivating in Wushan for decades, and not many people know me."

"The fourth rank of the Demon God Cult, the Heavenly Charm Demon God." Jiang Li matched the image of this woman with the information he knew.

He was one of the few people who came from the Demon God Cult. He joined the Demon God Cult when he was at a low level. Unlike those undercover agents, he could be said to be of good origin. He acted recklessly decades ago and caused countless hatreds. Later, he practiced in seclusion on Wushan Mountain. He did not re-enter the world until Wushan Mountain was unsealed more than a year ago.

By the way, from the eldest princess's diary, we know that she accidentally met Feng Manlou while chasing the Sky Demon God, and thus became the Dragon King's son-in-law.

That is to say...
"A direct descendant of the Great Master?"

Given Jiang Li's impression of the Great Master, it was hard not to wonder whether the meeting between the Princess and Feng Manlou was a coincidence.

If this was really an intentional arrangement, the demon god being hunted by the princess must be a direct descendant of the Great Lord.

"The reputation of the Heavenly Demon God was quite great in the past. Even after decades, it has not faded in the slightest in my memory." Yu Shi Yuanjun said lightly and easily accepted the test.

"Let's just take it as it is. After all, there are many people of high status in the sect."

The woman laughed crisply, and as she spoke, she leaned forward slightly and saluted Jiang Li. Her blue bra trembled with her movements, showing her strong elasticity. "I am Tianmei of the Wild God Sect, and I am honored to meet Jiang Sikong. I am here at the order of the Great Master to do my best for Sikong."

In response to this, Jiang Li said it was average, not as big as his senior sister's.

He was a gentleman and just glanced at the charming woman lightly without any emotion in his heart.

However, the Heavenly Demon God let out a cry and suddenly pressed his swollen pectoral muscles, as if he was stimulated by something.

"Sikong's gaze is so sharp that it stimulates me and makes me tremble. I even have small bumps on my body." The demon god Tianmei covered her breasts with her hands, looking surprised.

There were actually some small bumps on the half-exposed peaks.

"The demon god has self-respect."

Gongsun Qingyue couldn't help but snorted coldly and said.

It's fine that she's bullied by the old witch on weekdays, but now a bitch from outside dares to tease her, she's simply courting death. Gongsun Qingyue's eyes were grim, and there was a flash of light in her sleeves. She was secretly using the wordless heavenly book to predict the fate of this charming woman.

If the bitch is really shameless, then get rid of her.

Since I, a fifth-rank rank cultivator, can't do it, then I'll just call that old bitch over here and see if I can survive.

"Sister, you misunderstood."

The Sky Charm Demon God covered his mouth and chuckled, "I am amazed at Sikong's powerful strength. In this world, there has never been a fourth-grade person who can make me tremble. It is said that Jiang Sikong is the strongest of the fourth-grade, and his strength has transcended his grade and is comparable to the third-grade. After seeing it today, it is true that the rumors are true."

As she spoke, the woman blinked her eyes and looked at Jiang Li with her watery eyes.

Unfortunately, Jiang Li remained unmoved and just said modestly: "It's just a rumor. The Demon God is exaggerating."

He spoke modestly, and his tone did not change because of the words and actions of the Heavenly Demon God, but the word "Demon God" still made Gongsun Qingyue's face warm up.

"Demon" is a derogatory term, so the Wild God Sect became the Demon God Sect, and the fourth-grade who was called "True God" by the people in the sect also became the Demon God. Jiang Li's address naturally showed a hint of alienation, indicating that he was not moved by the beauty of women. Tian Mei saw that Jiang Li was not moved by her beauty at all, and thought that this young Sikong was really extraordinary and completely ignored her charm.

However, she still somewhat agreed with what Jiang Li said.

The transcendent level can still be seen in the lower fourth level, but it is difficult to reach the fifth level, especially since this fourth level is comparable to the third level, and it is not like Tianxuan's external Taoist fruit, which is even more unrealistic. Tianmei agrees that the fourth level is the strongest, but she has reservations about it being comparable to the third level.

And this Jiang Sikong is indeed ambitious, not at all arrogant because of the rumors, and has no impatience of a young man...

This thought was still circling in his mind when Jiang Li suddenly let out a light exclamation and his eyes fell to a place not far ahead.

There, a figure with no sense of presence walked out, looked at Jiang Li, and said: "The rumors are true."

The man was wearing a black robe and a wide hat with the brim pulled down to cover his face. He looked ordinary, but no one dared to look down on him.

Just because he is a third-grade strongman.

He is - Mo Xuankong, the master of Mo Sect! The best assassin in the world!
However, even such a powerful person was discovered by Jiang Li.

"You are really modest."

The idea that the Heavenly Charm Demon God had just made up was immediately overturned, and she almost couldn't keep the smile that had always been there.

Jiang Li continued to be modest, "You are too kind. I only detected your whereabouts by relying on my magical powers."

At the same time, Jiang Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was really not given a single chance to play the pig and eat the tiger.

First, he was labeled as a scheming person. Now, anyone with a bit of scheming would brainstorm when seeing Jiang, thinking whether there is a trap, and even doubt whether the Jiang Li they saw is the real person.

Now add on a label of being as powerful as a third-grade rank. If you want to play the pig and eat the tiger, forget it.

Even the strongest would not underestimate any third-grade person. In other words, at their level, their vision was far-reaching, surpassing 99% of the people in the world, and contempt was caused by narrow vision, which basically would not appear in their minds.

Jiang Li was secretly regretting that he couldn't pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, but Mo Men Juzi who had just arrived was quite happy.

The stronger our side is, the higher our chances of winning will be, and it will be easier to eliminate the traitor Tan Wuwei.

This time, the Buddha Kingdom has produced three third-grade masters. In terms of the number of third-grade masters, no one in the world can match it. A single force can never stop the Buddha Kingdom. But if multiple forces unite, the weaker one will become the Buddha Kingdom.

More than a hundred years ago, the Buddhist nation traveled eastward mainly because of the powerful Awakener. Otherwise, given that Manjusri had only recently been promoted and Avalokitesvara had not yet been promoted, they would not have been qualified to compete with the Great Zhou.

However, the enemy would definitely know about this situation.

Mo Men Ju Zi's mind was full of thoughts, and he said, "Mo Men also has some secret connections in the Buddhist country. According to the news from the secret connections, a new belief appeared in the Buddhist country a year ago, and it is now spreading quite widely."

Momen Juzi's voice was low and steady, but without any distinctive features. It sounded very consistent with his style of doing things, making it convenient for assassination.

And what he said also caught the attention of Jiang Li and others.

Almost all practitioners in the Buddhist kingdom practice the method of attracting and collecting faiths, but low-level practitioners cannot erect Buddha statues to collect incense. At most, they can do good deeds everywhere to collect faiths in the most efficient way.

Any belief that can be spread on a large scale is powerful, and the stronger it is, the more believers it has, and it can even make fifth-level practitioners such as Arhats offer their faith.

Mo Men Ju Zi said that the large-scale spread of new beliefs undoubtedly represented the emergence of new powerful people.

"Is it the Mother of No Birth?" Jiang Li asked.

"It is the Great Sun Tathagata," Mo Men Ju Zi shook his head and said, "The preacher said that the Great Sun Tathagata once returned to the world and was reborn as the Yan Emperor, who unified the country. Now that the Tathagata is about to appear, it is a sign that the world will be unified."

Before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Li's face froze.

Even if he himself has no reverence for his ancestors, he still has basic respect for them. This act of making up stories about his own ancestors is undoubtedly a crazy act that is in Jiang Sikong's minefield.

As for the belief in Vairocana Tathagata, it would be impossible without the secret promotion of the Jiang family and the approval of Manjusri, a great figure in the Buddhist world.

"As I recall, the third rank in the Buddhist kingdom is the Buddha and some great bodhisattvas, and the Daoguo, known as Tathagata, is the second rank," Jiang Li said with a gloomy face, "Who is trying to be promoted to the second rank?"

"I don't know, but there is a clue."

Momen Juzi replied: "The preacher of the Great Sun Tathagata said that the Flame Emperor will return from the catastrophe and restore the body of the Tathagata. The Great Sun Tathagata is most likely related to the Jiang family."

"Manjusri? Or does the Jiang family have other three grades?" Jiang Li frowned.

At this time, the Heavenly Charm Demon God interrupted and said, "Well, I do have some news. The Great Venerable said that the Jiang family may have the Dao Fruit of the Three-legged Golden Crow, but I don't know if there is anyone who can bear this Dao Fruit."

Three-legged Golden Crow, Vairocana Tathagata...

Jiang Li thought of the golden crow's corpse in the Shennong Ding.

If the Golden Crow left behind any Taoist fruit when it died, it must have fallen into the hands of the Jiang family's ancestor or even Emperor Yan.

After the Jiang family moved overseas, they gave birth to a third-rank official?

Regardless of whether it is true or false, we must pay attention to the belief in the Three-legged Golden Crow Dao Fruit and Vairocana Tathagata.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li increased the speed of the island and made it fly towards the Jiang family's ancestral land immediately after entering the territory of Yongzhou.

······
······
At the same time as Jiang Li entered Yongzhou, Buddha's light came from the west, passing through the Kunxu Mountains. A golden wheel was suspended in the air, protecting the monks and soldiers as they marched. In the wheel, there was a Bodhisattva's Dharma body sitting cross-legged, looking far away in the direction of Yuxu Temple, facing the two auras on both sides.

"Manjushri."

Shen Hou rode a tiger into the air, bowed to the golden wheel, and said, "I have found the whereabouts of the Bodhisattva of the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons, and I am going to ask him to return."

In the battle between the Eight Heavenly Dragons and Bodhisattva Guangli, he was severely injured by Jiang Li and lost an arm. He has disappeared since then, and even Manjusri did not know where he went.

Now, after hearing the report from Lord Shen, his expression slightly changed, and he said, "Go ahead. If Bodhisattva Guangli doesn't want to, you can use your magical powers."

It is very possible that Bodhisattva Guangli is planning to practice temporarily because of the injury he suffered, but now that a great war is imminent, he cannot be without important combat forces.

Even if Shen Hou uses his supernatural powers, he must ask Bodhisattva Guangli to take action.
