Taiyi Dao Fruit

Chapter 143: Drawing the Ground into a Prison Soldiers Deployed from a Sack_2


Daoist Guang Cheng looked at Tan Wuwei.

Although Jiang Li is pursued by the Immortal Queen and Taibai True Monarch seems to have joined in, he and Tianxuan still have a decent chance of escaping their pursuit.

After all, one is notoriously cunning and deceitful, while the other has already proven his enemies-defying tactics with his battle record. With their abilities, even if Taibai True Monarch and the Immortal Queen take action, they may not be able to intercept them.

They could return at any moment.

Once Jiang Li returns, just by the fact of today's stalemate with Buddha Country, it's enough to stabilize the hearts of people, making those within Great Zhou too cautious to act recklessly. Additionally, Jiang Li got a second-grade Dao Artifact from the Immortal Queen, which boosts his prestige even more.

Perhaps the Eldest Prince and Second Prince, upon knowing this, will retreat again.

Therefore, even if another battle occurs, Jiang Li must be intercepted at Kunxu Mountain so that he doesn't return with both might and the second-grade Dao Artifact, which would profoundly affect the battle situation.

Although Jiang Li and his companion went west from here, it doesn't mean they will return to Great Zhou from here.

The Kunxu Mountain Range alone stretches thousands of miles, giving Jiang Li a vast selection space, not to mention other options. To accurately guard against Jiang Li, it still depends on Tan Wuwei's divine skills.

But this means Tan Wuwei must stay at the border between Great Zhou and Buddha Country. If she stays, the other two must stay too.

Not that Daoist Guang Cheng is unwilling to let the three third-grade army return, but because of concern for Tan Wuwei's safety, the two Great Masters must remain. If they leave, what happens if the opponents gang up on Tan Wuwei without martial virtue?

No matter how strong the survival skills of the third grade are, facing three opponents at once leaves little chance of victory, while the likelihood of sudden death is quite high.

"We stay here, just like Daoist Master Guang Cheng does," Manjusri said faintly.

Three third-grade individuals may need three third-grade guards; if even one person is missing, the Buddha Country will seize the opportunity.

Thus, it's a situation of mutual imprisonment, delaying tactics.

'However, besides the three of us third-grade, Buddha Country still has a bunch of fourth-grade, and Monk Soldiers already advancing towards the state mansion, while Jiang Li's subordinates can't possibly reach Yong Province in a short time.'

Manjusri pondered within, arriving at a conclusion: "The advantage is mine."

Unfortunately, before Manjusri could voice his opinion on this advantage, Tan Wuwei suddenly uttered a soft "huh."

This one turned her gaze toward the still-floating flying island, fixating on Gongsun Qingyue who was spectating on the island as if having discovered something.

Under her gaze, the Qi Mechanism on Gongsun Qingyue gradually appeared, and vaguely, her figure seemed to be changing, becoming indistinct.

"Pity it got discovered,"

Gongsun Qingyue also lowered her head to look at her body, then chuckled lightly, "After all, being apart for so long makes transmission difficult."

Accompanied by these inexplicable words, "Gongsun Qingyue" transformed, from a graceful woman into a familiar man, increasingly blurred, revealing a smile—who else could it be but Jiang Li?

Seeing this situation, "Gongsun Qingyue" has always been a form created by Jiang Li's strand of Primordial Qi. Because Jiang Li himself was far away from this place, the strand of Primordial Qi gradually had difficulty maintaining and was exposed under Tan Wuwei's insight.

"So the question is, where is the real Gongsun Qingyue, my senior sister, now?" Jiang Li asked with a mysterious smile, looking at Tan Wuwei, "Mr. Wuwei, can you see her whereabouts?"

An increasing number of futures entered Tan Wuwei's vision, making her expression grave.

Before the future is revealed, even those who foresee the future cannot see the truth; Tan Wuwei was limited by the futures she saw.

Because her ability to foresee the future inherently has a range, and within this foreseen range, the futures seen only represent that these events will happen, not that these events are valid.

For example, if a lie is not seen as being revealed in the foreseen future but only seen before the lie is revealed, it can be deceptive.

"The court's soldiers have already arrived..." Tan Wuwei said slowly.

In theory, even if full of cultivators containing at least ninth-grade Dao Fruit, the court's soldiers should not reach so quickly. At minimum, at least, it should take over a month to enter Yong Province.

However, in this world of cultivation, there is nothing impossible.

"Indeed," Jiang Li responded to Tan Wuwei's comment.

As the words fell, his figure completely dissipated into a group of Primordial Qi, gradually drifting away, with the flying island now maintained floating by Primordial Lord Rain Master.

This time, he truly left, leaving behind a tense atmosphere and somewhat somber faces of the opponents.

At the same time, outside Da Xing City in Yong Province's capital, Gongsun Qingyue's figure quietly appeared on a high slope.

She looked westward, using Qi Observation Skill to see the surge of blood energy far away, transforming into red light, mingling with Buddha's energy.

The monk soldiers of Buddha Country were about to besiege the state mansion.

In the past year and even earlier, after Yong Province's severe drought followed by military disaster, when Mo Sect arrived for relief, Tan Wuwei had already begun preparing for today. At that time, the Mo Sect's leader responsible for relief was Tan Wuwei, and she had been laying out plans in Yong Province for a long time.

Therefore, as the Buddha Country monks came all the way, though not greeted with joy by the people holding food and drink, they could also progress unhindered, with towns and villages being absorbed quickly. Even some places had already embraced Buddhism before the monks' arrival.

This enabled the Buddha Country monk soldiers to approach the state mansion quickly, and the state mansion was utterly powerless to resist.

Even with an Earth Deity possessing a Divine Domain, they were powerless against the Buddha Country monks, the disparity in strength was too great.

The reason Great Zhou's control over Yong Province is weak is not just historical but also because Yong Province's territory, even with an Earth Deity present, provides little assistance to the Earth Deity.

An Earth Deity's strength depends on the support of the people's hearts, incense, and the crucial local environment.

In regions with stable and strong earth veins, excellent environment, and large populations, the Earth Deity naturally grows stronger. Conversely, in places like Yong Province, plagued with barren soil, desolate lands, and the hardship of people's lives, it cannot benefit the Earth Deity much.

With a weak foundation, the Earth Deity's power is insufficient, thus lacking control over the governed land.

If no accidents occur, the capital of Yong Province won't be able to resist for long; within a day, it will be seized by Buddha Country.

The premise is, no accidents.

Gongsun Qingyue gazed at the increasingly approaching red light and Buddha's energy, lightly raising her right hand, and a bulging tattered cloth bag appeared in her hand, which she tossed upwards.

The bag automatically opened, suspended mid-air, with countless streams of light flying from it.

These streams of light landed on the ground, transforming into armored soldiers, though some staggered but clearly emanating evil qi, all elite soldiers.

They were the soldiers brought by Tianxuan from Divine Capital.

Everyone thought Tianxuan had arrived first by herself, unaware that she brought the soldiers along, arriving in Yong Province together.

Using this Precelestial Human Species Bag.

When others saw Tianxuan arrive at Kunxu Immortal Palace alone before meeting with Jiang Li and others, they subconsciously assumed Tianxuan had just arrived, unaware Tianxuan had met with Jiang Li and Gongsun Qingyue beforehand.

She handed the Human Species Bag containing soldiers to Gongsun Qingyue, having Jiang Li split off a form to disguise as Gongsun Qingyue, traveling together.

Gongsun Qingyue's ability couldn't participate in battles of fourth-grade or even third-grade; using Wordless Heavenly Scripture to command soldiers was the main purpose of her trip to Yong Province.

"Two quarters of an hour to recover,"

Standing atop the high slope, Gongsun Qingyue raised the Treasure Lotus Lamp, using Pure Light to accelerate the soldiers' recovery and commanded: "In two quarters, follow me to fight Buddha Country."
