Chapter 414 Finding Trouble

"Demon Lord?!"

"Has a Demon Lord appeared?!"

"Don't panic! Huangzhou is still more than 2,000 miles away from here!"

...

For a moment, as everyone heard the content of the flying sword's voice transmission, they began to discuss in surprise.

After all, the Demon Lord is equivalent to the existence of the super-innate cultivator of the human race, much rarer and more powerful than the so-called Demon General.

"Huangzhou is the territory of Buddhism. I believe that Buddhism will send a monk to deal with it. We can just avoid it according to the master's instructions."

Xuanzhen Taoist then raised his hand and touched his goatee and judged that they should just listen to Qingyangzi's arrangements and don't have to think about challenging the limits of life.

But Wang Zhifan's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he immediately wanted to ask others about the specific location of Huangzhou and prepared to rush over to see the situation.

This is not that he wants to die, but the strength of the previous few Demon Generals has disappointed him too much. He wants to understand the specific level of the stronger Demon Lord, and then adjust his personal positioning in this copy according to the actual situation and modify the clearance plan.

But before Wang Zhifan asked for directions, the masked tall dragon girl beside him suddenly flew up, and her figure flew to the east like a sharp arrow, without the slightest hesitation.

"This woman... must be heading to Huangzhou!"

Wang Zhifan immediately made this judgment in his heart, knowing that he didn't need to ask for directions now, there was a ready-made local to lead the way, so he also activated the Wind and Thunder Stepping Heaven Art, took off from the ground and followed.

In an instant, Xuanzhen Taoist and other Qingyang Palace disciples who stayed in place looked at the direction where the two masters were leaving, their mouths twitched slightly but they had nothing to say.

The main reason was that Wang Zhifan and Mieyue Dragon Blade did not belong to their group, but were only temporary foreign aid. No one else could control what they wanted to do, and Qingyangzi's words could not completely restrain them.

At the same time, in the high-altitude rush state, the Mieyue Dragon Blade flying in front also discovered Wang Zhifan who was following closely behind.

This situation seemed to concern her a little. She quickly slowed down her flying speed and let Wang Zhifan behind her catch up quickly.

When Wang Zhifan flew to a position almost level with her, she continued to fly and turned to Wang Zhifan and said:

"Master Fanyun, you can't compete with me this time."

Her voice was still clear and cold as usual, with a unique oppressive force, but not too annoying.

"Don't worry, sir, I'll go over and take a look."

Wang Zhifan smiled and replied immediately after hearing it, no longer with the resolute attitude he had earlier in competing with this woman for the priority to kill the demon general.

This is not because he is afraid of this woman, but because he is a reasonable person. Since this woman took the initiative to give in once in the previous conflict between the two, he can't keep going against her, otherwise it will give people the impression of being too arrogant and overbearing, which is easy to cause unnecessary internal friction.

From another perspective, the most important purpose of his search for the Demon Lord is to understand the combat power information. Someone fighting in the front does not affect his acquisition of information, so it doesn't matter if he gives in once.

"Thank you, Taoist priest."

The dragon girl responded politely. It can be seen that after some of the previous events, she has learned a little about Wang Zhifan's strength and has become more respectful to him.

Wang Zhifan nodded and took the opportunity to talk to the dragon girl, such as asking her how far away from Huangzhou she was and how much she knew about the Demon Lord, so as to obtain some information.

The dragon girl was willing to answer such questions that did not involve her personal matters. She gave Wang Zhifan a brief explanation and soon returned to the state of rushing on the road seriously.

Wang Zhifan also did not bother her too much. Seeing that she did not want to say more, he summoned the red deer horse and also concentrated on riding and galloping.

In fact, with his current skills and physique, he can rely on Qinggong all the way to Huangzhou, but he has always been the kind of person who is careful with money. If he can save some skills and physical strength, he will not deliberately waste it. Anyway, the speed of the red deer horse is fast enough and there will be no delay.

So about half an hour later, Wang Zhifan and Mieyue Dragon Blade, riding on the back of Pegasus, arrived at the border of Huangzhou at the same time. This speed of travel is considered quite fast even among cultivators, but Mieyue Dragon Blade was in a relaxed and calm state throughout the flight, which shows that the dragon girl's physique is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary human beings. No wonder Qingyangzi values ​​her more.

After that, the two searched for about an incense stick in the border of Huangzhou. They found several traces of demons on the way and solved them casually. Finally, they found the location where the demon king appeared as Qingyangzi said.

It was on a vast plain. The two sensed the extremely strong breath of demons from a long distance, as obvious as a lighthouse on the sea in the dark night. They knew they had found the target without further exploration.

When they got closer, they saw that the existence suspected to be the Demon Lord was a terrifying demon as huge as a hill. It had three heads and six arms. The three heads could vaguely show the faces of a human female child, a young man, and an old woman. The blue-black demon flames covering its body were extremely terrifying. Only three Buddhist monks with extremely powerful auras dared to fight against it on the entire plain, trying to contain this terrifying existence.

At the same time, in the surrounding area several miles away from this huge demon, there were tens of thousands of other demons. Most of the ordinary demons had been eliminated by the bald army gathered here, but there were still dozens of demon generals who were still fighting with the monks. The overall scene was quite chaotic, and demons or human monks could fall at any time.

"What a big scene... Those demons wanted to attack the nearby town, but were stopped here by the Buddhist masters?"

Wang Zhifan did not rush into the battle to help. He stayed in the outer area and observed the overall situation from high altitude. He noticed that there was a town about 20 miles away. A huge demon suspected to be the Demon Lord was leading many other demons to move there under pressure. The purpose was obvious.

"We are late... The Buddhist sect has always been unwilling to let others interfere in their affairs, otherwise it will cause trouble."

The Dragon Girl Mieyue Dragon Blade came to Wang Zhifan at this time. She had a much better relationship with Wang Zhifan along the way and took the initiative to remind him not to interfere easily.

"You can't even help voluntarily?"

Wang Zhifan was a little unconvinced when he heard it. He didn't quite understand why someone would refuse others' enthusiastic help. Is it just to maintain his face?

"You can see it over there. People from the Confucian sect are rushing over."

The Moon-Destroying Dragon Blade then raised his hand and pointed Wang Zhifan in a direction.

There were more than a dozen dots appearing on the horizon. They were easily seen as flying birds at a distance, but if you look closely for a second, you can find that they were a group of people flying fast. They were all dressed in high hats and wide belts, which was indeed the style of Confucian people.

"You have a good eye. I didn't notice it if you didn't tell me."

Wang Zhifan narrowed his eyes and looked at the group of Confucian visitors. He realized that the woman next to him was indeed not a mortal body and had extraordinary observation ability.

This situation made him feel that the battlefield situation in front of him was becoming more and more complicated. He might see a precious scene of conflict between Confucianism and Buddhism.

At the same time, in the direction they were observing, there were indeed some bad signs.

A total of seventeen Confucian masters suddenly flew from the horizon and broke into the battle dominated by Buddhism. They were intercepted by several Xiantian monks who were guarding the periphery.

"Stop! No outsiders are allowed to enter this place!"

Three Xiantian monks were bathed in golden Buddha light and flew into the sky. Behind each of them, a majestic Dharma image appeared faintly. They blocked the Confucian visitors who suddenly broke in with a strong momentum.

The Confucian leader was a handsome young man with a high hat and long robe, sword eyebrows and star eyes. He was about 23 or 24 years old. Although he was relatively young, his aura was extremely strong, as if he had surpassed the level of ordinary Xiantian.

This handsome Confucian monk, who was a dragon among men, raised his sleeves and waved gently in front of the three monks. The luxurious folding fan with a white background and gold edges in his hand bloomed with countless mysterious "trapped" characters like flowers scattered by a fairy. These ink-like characters bound the three Buddhist monks tightly in the blink of an eye, making them fall to the ground involuntarily like chains, and even the Buddhist Dharma bodies condensed behind them dissipated because of the characters.

"Want to stop me, Qingfeng Layman? How can you do it without sending a few Buddhist disciples?"

After dealing with the monk who intercepted him, the elegant Confucian scholar chuckled and led the other Confucian scholars behind him to continue flying through the battle formation, approaching the existence of the suspected Demon Lord on the ground.

The actions of these people undoubtedly angered many monks around them, but most monks were still fighting with demons and had no time to pay attention to them. Moreover, the monks knew that they could not deal with this powerful Confucian master with their strength, so they might as well pretend not to see it and concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of them, so as not to humiliate themselves.

At this time, in the center of the battlefield, the battle between three Buddhist monks and the existence of the suspected Demon Lord also entered a white-hot stage.

Two of the monks transformed into huge Buddhist Vajra, whose size was not much less than that of the Demon Lord, as if two giant gods were flanking and besieging the terrifying Demon Lord with three heads and six arms.

Another monk sat cross-legged in the sky, holding a rosary in his hand and chanting Buddhist mantras. Every time his lips opened and closed, a swastika larger than a house would fall from the sky and hit the body of the Demon Lord, causing the blue-black demon flames on his body to vibrate violently, as if they would be extinguished in the next second.

But even though the three Buddhist monks fought with all their might, the three-headed and six-armed Demon Lord showed no signs of falling. He steadily withstood the attacks of the two Vajra incarnations and the Fallen Buddha Mantra, as if he had taken root under his feet. Even the Buddhist Dharma Image, which was famous for its great strength, could not shake him, and could only continue to bombard his six stone pillar-like demon arms, fighting a war of attrition.

This scene was seen by the Confucian Qingfeng Layman who had just led his people closer. He immediately laughed and mocked:

"You use your numbers to bully the few, but you can't win after a long battle... If you Buddhists don't have the strength to kill the demon, please give way to me, Qingfeng Layman! I can kill this demon in just a moment!"

His voice was not very loud, but it was affected by a special power, so that it could be heard clearly within a radius of ten miles. It was obvious that he wanted to put pressure on the Buddhist masters.

"Why do Confucianism and Buddhism get along so badly?"

Wang Zhifan, who was far away from the central area, couldn't help but ask the Moon-Destroying Dragon Sword beside him, because he didn't understand why Qingfeng Layman, who was obviously a Confucian master, wanted to provoke Buddhism at this critical moment. Scholars shouldn't be so violent.

"Well, there are many territorial conflicts between Confucianism and Buddhism. They will look for every opportunity to suppress the other side and show their strength so that more people will join them."

The dragon girl, who was already quite familiar with Wang Zhifan, immediately explained, which made Wang Zhifan understand.

"Oh... So that's what happened... No wonder I heard people in a place called Shuqiu City say that Confucianism and Taoism are more friendly."

Wang Zhifan remembered that when he was talking to the Confucian scholar named Zhang Siqian, the other party said that the relationship between Confucianism and Taoism was OK, but the relationship with Buddhism was worse, but he did not pay attention to this aspect at that time.

Curious, Wang Zhifan immediately asked Longnv more about this aspect, such as the relationship between Taoism and Buddhism, why Taoism's external relations seemed better, and to what extent Buddhism and Confucianism were fighting.

Mieyue Longdao, who had nothing to do for a while, patiently explained to him and told him the key.

For example, the reason why Taoism has a good relationship with Buddhism and Confucianism is that people in Taoism pay attention to tranquility and inaction, and basically do not deliberately open up new territories, so there are naturally few conflicts of interest with the other two.

Even if someone in Taoism's own territory joins Buddhism or Confucianism, Taoism is too lazy to care, and the main idea is to follow fate. You can take whichever path you like, as long as you don't interfere with my cultivation.

On the other hand, Buddhism and Confucianism are different. They are both more proactive and utilitarian. It is difficult for other practitioners to stay in the sphere of influence of Buddhism. Confucianism is also actively promoting Confucianism. Confucian scholars often conflict with Buddhist disciples who like to preach everywhere, and many people have died.

But decades ago, the three great saints paid attention to this aspect and set up constraints to prohibit the three disciples from fighting to the death. After all, the three saints are said to have a good relationship with each other. They stand at a higher level and do not want to see the internal consumption of human cultivators in vain, allowing the hostile demon world to take advantage.

However, the constraints from above cannot really solve all conflicts. Even if the three human forces in the disaster realm seem to be much more peaceful on the surface, there will be no less open and secret struggles in private.

Especially Buddhism and Confucianism, each side will seize the opportunity to disgust the other side. Since the saints do not allow physical life and death, they will find opportunities to attack the other side spiritually, especially to find the righteousness, so that the other side can only endure the humiliation.

It is such a perfect opportunity for the Confucian layman Qingfeng to find trouble with the Buddhist sect, because destroying the invaders from the Demon Realm is the righteous cause of all the human race in the Disaster Realm. You Buddhist sect has tried so hard to deal with a suspected Demon Lord, but if my Confucian sect can handle it in just a few moves, then you Buddhist sect are not as good as my Confucian sect, and there is no reason to refute.
