The Confucian Sage looked at the direction in which the Taoist Sage left, and said in a calm tone: "What do you two think?"
Buddha asked: "Who are the Confucian sages?"
The Confucian sage smiled and said, "Why should Buddha ask questions when he knows clearly?"
Master Tongtian Sword listened to the conversation between the two, frowned slightly and said: "There is no one else here except you and me. Can't you two say it clearly? Don't you feel tired of having to say some specious words to make people speculate?"
The Confucian sage said naturally: "The sword master is right. By the way, the sword master went to the Dao Palace to test Master Li. What is the result?"
The master of the Tongtian Sword thought for a while and replied: "This time I failed to test the depth of Brother Li Erdao's cultivation, but there was an unexpected surprise. The green bull that Brother Li Erdao had raised for tens of thousands of years used its horns
Breaking through Pindao's Immortal-killing Sword Formation."
"Although Brother Li Erdao had withstood most of the power of the Zhuxian Sword Formation at that time, ordinary third-level celestial beings, even as powerful as Zhuang Zhou, could not break the Zhuxian Sword Formation created by Pindao."
"It can be deduced from this that Qingniu is close to the realm of a saint. In the future, when you and Brother Li Erdao sit down to discuss Taoism, you must pay more attention to avoid being attacked by Qingniu."
The Buddha heard this with a look of disbelief: "Could the sword master be joking? That green ox is just a livestock. Even though it has been raised by Taoist saints for tens of thousands of years and can show some supernatural powers, it can be said that the green ox is in the realm of saints comparable to us.
,How can it be?"
"Although the sword master failed to test the depth of the Taoist Saint this time, and the Zhuxian Sword Formation was broken by a green bull, and he is embarrassed, he is not exaggerating or alarmist."
The Master of the Tongtian Sword said angrily: "How powerful the Immortal-Zhuan Sword Formation is. The Buddha has experienced it many times himself. He should be very clear that the Green Ox can break through the Immortal-Zhuxiang Sword Formation, and it can also break through the nine-foot-long golden body and the Buddha's kingdom in the palm of his hand."
"If Buddha doesn't believe it, he can go to the Taoist Palace and give it a try, lest he be defeated at the hands of Taoist Brother Li Er and not even know how he died."
Seeing that the Buddha and the Master of the Tongtian Sword were about to quarrel, the Confucian Sage quickly smoothed things over and said, "Don't be impatient, you two. We have something to say."
"Buddha, if I am not the one telling you, the sword master will tell you the results of the test with all sincerity. You can question whether the results are true or false, but you cannot doubt the sword master's character."
"Sword Master, it's not because Buddha refuses to believe you. Anyone who suddenly hears that a green bull is comparable to a saint will find it too unbelievable. I hope Sword Master will not think too much about it."
The Confucian sage said kind words to both sides, which barely made the anger in the hearts of Buddha and Tongtian Sword Master subside a little.
The master of the Tongtian Sword snorted coldly and said: "The Confucian sage should know that there is no need for me to deceive you. Although we have not been in contact for a short time, I am sure that in terms of cultivation, that green bull is far inferior to us. In terms of realm,
It’s indeed comparable to us.”
The Buddha no longer questioned the master of the Tongtian Sword, but sighed and said: "No matter how different our cultivation levels are, we are still in the realm of saints. There are two saints in one Tao Palace. If we don't work together, we will be defeated but not victorious."
The Confucian sage chuckled and said: "Buddha, why should you belittle yourself? The results of the sword master's test this time are not necessarily bad."
Buddha asked attentively: "Why did the Confucian sage say this?"
The Confucian Sage looked calm and said: "As the sword master said, he used the Immortal Killing Sword Formation to block the Dao Palace at first. Master Li and the sword master were at loggerheads and did not take action to break the formation. After learning that Lin Ze was in danger, he let Qing Niu
Break the formation and take the opportunity to save Lin Ze."
"It can be inferred that it is either difficult for Master Li to break through the Zhuxian Sword Formation in a short time, or that breaking the formation in a short time requires a huge price. It can be inferred that although Master Li's cultivation level is higher than that of the sword master, it will not be too high."
"If my inference is correct, wouldn't it be good news? It's just that we can't tell whether Master Li intentionally hides his clumsiness. What does the sword master think?"
As the Confucian Sage spoke, he looked at the Tongtian Sword Master, waiting for his answer.
The master of the Tongtian Sword looked thoughtful, slowly shook his head and said: "I don't know. I started in the Tao Palace. I was worried and didn't dare to do it with all my strength, so I don't know how much strength Dao Brother Li Er contributed."
Hearing this, the Confucian Sage smiled bitterly and said, "It's difficult for the sword master. If the Dao Palace is just one sect and two sages, we can still suppress one or two of them together. Once Zhuang Zhou or Lin Ze, the destined one, is promoted to the saint realm, we will gain transcendence."
There is little hope of chance."
Buddha also realized the seriousness of the situation and said in a cold tone: "With the Taoist saint pressing down on him, it will not be easy for Zhuang Zhou to advance to the saint realm."
"What I am worried about is that Lin Ze has reached the third level of heaven at such a young age. If he does not fall halfway, with the help of destiny, there is a high chance that he will be promoted to a saint."
"We must break Lin Ze's destiny as soon as possible and interrupt his soaring momentum, otherwise the consequences will be endless. I wonder if you two have any clever ideas?"
The Master of Tongtian Sword said calmly: "If you want to deal with someone with a destiny, you must first damage his destiny, then destroy his destiny, and then cut off his path."
"There is no way to deal with Lin Ze, a person with destiny in the third realm of heaven and man. The only way is to send more disciples of the third realm of heaven and man to discuss the truth with him, and to use the method of counterfeiting to eliminate his destiny."
The Confucian sage shook his head: "This method is too slow and can easily backfire. If one encounters a vigorous eruption of heaven's luck, instead of harming him, it will help him consolidate his luck."
The master of the Tongtian Sword said indifferently: "Too slow? There are also quick ones, letting innocent people die in Lin Ze's hands, or 350 million mortals, or 3500 first-level celestial beings, or 2 or 3
The third realm of heaven and humanity.”
"Whenever a situation occurs and the way of heaven bites back, Lin Ze's remaining luck will definitely be difficult to maintain his destiny."
"Three to fifty million mortals and three to five hundred celestial beings are difficult to deal with. There are still two or three celestial beings in the third realm who are under two disciples. Think about it?"
The Buddha looked thoughtful, as if he was considering the feasibility of the proposal proposed by the Tongtian Sword Master.
The Confucian sage's face turned dark and he said angrily: "If we take the lives of our disciples to do such a thing, how are we any different from the beasts dressed in clothes?"
The master of the Tongtian Sword chuckled lightly: "If the Confucian saint feels that this strategy is inappropriate, the poor Taoist has one last resort to remove the fuel from the cauldron, that is, we risk falling into the realm of saints and forcibly cut off Lin Ze's avenue."
"The reason why you two find Lin Ze troublesome is not because he is a destined person, but because he is in the third realm of heaven and man, and no one can control him under the saint."
"Once Linze's avenue is cut off and his cultivation level falls from the third level of heaven to the first level, he only needs to randomly arrange a few heavenly beings to destroy his luck and dissipate his destiny."
"But, are you two willing to make sacrifices?"
The Confucian Sage sighed again, and just when he was about to speak, the Buddha suddenly said: "I think the sword master's second strategy is good. The third level of three heavenly beings is still possible if you put it together."
The Confucian sage heard this and objected: "Buddha was pure in heart and had few desires. He could calmly let his disciples die, but I can't do that."
"Confucian disciples can die, but they cannot die under my calculations. I would rather give up dealing with Lin Ze than sacrifice Meng Ke and others."
"If Buddha insists on using the second strategy, forgive me for not being able to help him."
The Buddha smiled and said: "Confucian sages, please don't get excited. I didn't say that I have to let the disciples of the third realm of heaven and human beings in Buddhism and Confucianism die."
The Confucian sage looked hesitant: "Buddha said..."
The Buddha looked calm and said: "That's right, apart from the three religions of Taoism, Buddhism and Confucianism, there are also a few who are in the third realm of heaven and earth."
"The military strategist Jiang Shang, the farmer Xu Xing, the doctor Bian Que, and the Mohist Mo Zhai. In addition, in the third realm of heavenly beings, there are Taishan Mountain Monarch, Dongting Shuijun, Nanzhao Fire God and other Shinto powers."
"Now Jiang Shang is working for the Confucian family, the Nanzhao Fire God has close contacts with Buddhism, and the Dongting Shuijun and the sword master are flirting with each other..."
Having said this, the Buddha suddenly paused and said with an indifferent expression: "Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters. What do you two think?"
