Things are different now than they used to be

of spirit creatures in the Upper Realm, their hope of advancing to the realm of gods is significantly greater than staying in this lower realm. 。"Well, even if we lose, we can just retreat later." 。...Sonic resonance reverberated, forming circles of ripples in the void. At this moment, Lu Xiaotian's main body sat cross-legged on the ground. Lu Xiaotian placed one hand on his knee, his eyes calmly gazing into the distance, as if trying to encompass the boundless emptiness with a single glance.

Within his sight, the clear and lively air between heaven and earth, like threads of silk, was everywhere. At some point, Lu Xiaitian's eyes changed color. His left eye became pure black, while his right turned pale white, devoid of even a speck of black.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowed slowly, like water, towards Lu Xia Tian's eyes.

Before qi was differentiated, there was only primordial chaos. This primordial qi is the source of all things. Life arises from two, and two gives birth to three. Three things transform into each other, leading to the nine profound mysteries. Nine times nine returns to one, this is the true nature of the Dao...

Around Lu Xia Tian, spiritual energy in the world gradually transformed, centering on his eyes, forming black and white. As time passed, a huge Tai Chi symbol emerged in mid-air.

Above the void, within the Buddhist sect of nothingness, the spiritual birds passing through were gradually being attracted by this enormous Tai Chi pattern. The clouds and mist in the void, the scorching sun, the twilight clouds, and even the moonlight flowed into the huge Tai Chi pattern.

Smoke and clouds swirl, the Taiji seals the city. Heaven and earth are born, returning to the Primordial Chaos.

When Lu Xia Tian ascended to the next level during his body integration, he also manifested this kind of vision. However, compared to the previous visions when he was in the cloud-shrouded small town, at this moment, Lu Xia Tian felt a sense of isolation as if he had become one with heaven and earth.

The Way can cause all things to be born, and it can also cause all things to perish.

As Lu Xia Tian thought, the heavenly winds of the void and the Martian sand converged like a tide towards his location within hundreds of miles.

With the Heavenly Dipper Wind and Mars Sand Tribulation directly scouring their flesh. This celestial phenomenon caused a significant fluctuation in spiritual energy, even under the constraints of the prohibition, impacting Buddhist monks within thousands of miles, affecting their cultivation to varying degrees.

After all, since the relationship had suddenly plummeted to freezing point, Lu Xia Tian's cultivation naturally didn't need to consider the feelings of the Buddhist Sect. Even if he was imprisoned here, without using the Five Absolutes Monk Tiger-Suppressing Array, the Buddhist Sect would have to pay a heavy price to deal with him. Lu Xia Tian himself had a fairly good understanding of the Five Absolutes Monk Tiger-Suppressing Array. This formation, for the Buddhist Sect, was like a sharp sword, but it could only be swung a limited number of times.

Although the Buddhist Sect has many other powerful techniques, Lu Xia Tian's cultivation to his current realm is not something to be underestimated. At least before the Buddhist Sect fully obtains the "Mahavastu Sutra" technique, Lu Xia Tian doesn't need to worry too much about what they might do to him.

As for the person behind Jiantai, while they pose a considerable threat to Lu Xiaoxian at present, they are not necessarily fatal. Outsiders are unaware that he has cultivated a lotus avatar and paid the price of an extra Yuan Shen, causing the Miaobiao Jiantai to be completely severed from his main body. Even if the mastermind behind Jiantai ultimately kills the lotus avatar and devours his Miaobiao Jiantai, Lu Xiaoxian loses a Great Ascension Realm lotus avatar, a significant loss indeed, but it does not threaten his life.

At this time, in Lu Xia Tian's eyes, the one thing that truly made him wary was still the Zhūfó Buddhist Sect. Previously, the sect had acted uprightly, and because he had interacted with many monks like Ming Yi and Ming , he held a certain fondness for them. However, the sect's change in attitude this time made Lu Xia Tian realize that when it truly came to matters of sect interests, the Zhūfó Buddhist Sect, after weighing its options, would make choices beneficial to itself without hesitation.

Since the Buddhist sect can discard him once, there will naturally be a second time.

I am the fish on the chopping board, and Lu Xia Tian is the butcher. While he might believe his strength is formidable now, he's still trapped within the territory of the Tu Zhu Buddha Sect. If they truly wished to, they could pose a significant threat to him at a certain cost.

In a nutshell, the Buddhist sect's sudden change of attitude took Lu Xiaoteng by surprise. However, he had already sent Duan Bi away with his second dantian, and coupled with his lotus avatar, one inside and one outside, the Zhūzhu Buddha Sect would have to consider the consequences of a complete break if they wanted to make any moves against him.

With communication severed, the severed arm controlled by Deputy Avatar and the Lotus Flower avatar are now also alert. The outcome hinges on the ensuing game of wits between them. Ultimately, when it comes to challenging the Buddhist sect, it all boils down to a display of strength.

"How is Lu Danwang doing these days" A wave rippled through the distant barrier, and Kong Ming stepped into the empty space with a compassionate and kind smile.

"Not bad, this place has always been a good place for quiet contemplation." Lu Xia Tian nodded.

Kong Ming and Lu Xia Tian exchanged polite greetings. Lu Xia Tian also responded in a perfunctory manner.

After a while, Kong Ming could no longer contain his thoughts. "Ming Xin, over this period of time, your cultivation foundation has steadily become more solid. Why hasn't Lu Dan Wang imparted the subsequent techniques as promised"

Lu Xia Tian looked at Kong Ming with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and said, "Although I helped Ming Xin find his roots and passed on some of the techniques to him, even with his current cultivation progress, even if he is gifted and the Buddhist sect pours a lot of effort into him, it will take at least two or three hundred years for him to reach the next level. Why rush things"

"Lu Danwang did promise to return the martial arts technique to Buddhism."

Both parties understood that their relationship had cooled down, and Kongming no longer challenged Lu Xiaotien in a playful manner. "Besides, King Lu Dan was in the Leidian within the Demon Corpse Grounds, and it seems he had some dealings with people from my sect, involving the return of a martial art to the Buddha Sect. King Lu Dan is known for keeping his word in the chaotic demon domain, so I assume he won't break his promise this time."

"It seems Ming'e has returned. Back then, I had an agreement with Senior Ya Qingying." Lu Xia Tian nodded, stating it directly.

“Then, please follow my advice, Lu Danwang.” Kong Ming said.

"I only said I would return the martial arts techniques to the Buddhist sect, but I never said when or how."

Lu Xia Tian smiled faintly, "Both of you and I understand that times have changed. Although I keep my promises, it's also based on my own safety. Teaching martial arts has its own considerations. You can't interfere with this. It's impossible to have both fish and bear paws. Master is a high monk in the Buddhist sect, and I believe he understands this simple truth."

“Amitabha Buddha, it seems that King Lu Dan has made up his mind. Well, this poor monk will go back and discuss with the two junior brothers.” Kong Ming looked deeply at Lu Xiaottian, knowing that there was no point in talking any further. He then got up and left.

After Zhung Kongming left, the Buddhist Sect stopped providing Lu Xiaoxiao with large sums of spirit crystals and various spiritual materials. Lu Xiaoxiao wasn't surprised by this; the Buddhist Sect was putting pressure on him. To think that they would use such means to make him submit was a bit naive. Prior to this, Lu Xiaoxiao already had accumulated a large amount of spirit crystals in his possession. Moreover, his second dantian had been transferred to his left arm, significantly reducing the consumption of his previous cultivation. This place could also be considered a blessed land where he could absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth. With the interruption of his spirit crystal supply, Lu Xiaoxiao was hardly threatened.

Moreover, Lu Xia Tian also had to give the other party a reasonable impression. Even if the Buddhist Sect knew that Xiang Hua had some connection with him in the past, when it came to his own safety, Lu Xia Tian would never look at Xiang Hua differently.

>her party had completely locked him and Hehu in. Such a arrogant guy, he actually wanted to take care of both him and Hehu together.These dozens of tiger-headed monsters before me are nothing to fear....
