Daoism Revival System: Start with fighting against Debunker Streamer

Chapter 682 - 681: The Final Battle Between the Buddhist Dao and Daoism May Have Already Begun (Second Update)

"Let’s hope so," said the Candle Dragon, surveying the Qingqiu Heaven and Earth, "It’s a pity for this world. Who knows when it might face impending doom..."

The Celestial Dao Hongjun has already discovered this place, the land of resurrection created by the ’One’.

It certainly will not allow this world to exist.

"Let’s go."

"To preserve the worlds of the heavens, it depends on that final battleground."

After the Fox Ancestor spoke, ripples emerged before him, revealing the river of time and space.

The Candle Dragon moved alongside, disappearing into the long river of time and space.

...

...

Grand Thousand Upper Realm.

Eastern Immortal Realm.

A month ago, Yang Jian faced the Celestial Tribulation, reopened the Destiny Dynasty, and elevated the Daoist Court back to Celestial Court Level.

There was no doubt it was a cause for celebration.

Yet at that time in the Palace of Discussion, the gods’ expressions were grim.

"So, the two saints who once founded the Western Sect, Zhunti and Jieyin, have truly returned to this realm?"

The Queen of Ten Thousand Beasts inquired, a hint of disbelief in her alluring eyes.

"It has been confirmed without a doubt."

Tianpeng stated solemnly, "According to the information from all sides, the whole Buddha Country is now worshiping the statues of Zhunti and Jieyin. Rumor has it they’ve appeared in the Great Leiyin Temple."

"So, Shen Gongbao’s earlier divination was indeed accurate."

Tianpeng’s words cast a heavy atmosphere over the Immortal Palace.

Actually, over half a month ago, State Preceptor Shen Gongbao mentioned this matter, saying that during a divination, he unexpectedly detected the presence of Zhunti and Jieyin.

Initially, everyone found it unbelievable.

Because Zhunti and Jieyin had vanished without a trace since the Divine Enthronement battle.

Later, the Western Sect held a grand mourning, claiming Zhunti and Jieyin had perished.

Initially, the people dared not believe it, but as vacancies appeared in the Mortal World, the Past Buddha Luminous and the Present Buddha Tathagata successively attained enlightenment and ascended to Zhunti and Jieyin’s positions.

Only then did everyone realize that the two saints who had founded the Western Sect had truly become part of ancient history.

Therefore, when Shen Gongbao proposed that the presence of Zhunti and Jieyin had reappeared in the world,

everyone was skeptical, thinking Shen Gongbao’s divination was incorrect.

However, as predictions and news spread from all directions,

everyone realized something earth-shattering seemed to have happened in the Buddha Country.

And now, the latest news has confirmed that Zhunti and Jieyin have revealed their true forms in the Buddha Country, causing numerous Buddhist disciples to worship them en masse.

This news completely solidified the rumor.

While it is shocking, it also brings deep concerns.

"Zhunti and Jieyin are among the oldest saints in the world. Regardless of how awe-inspiring the Past Buddha Luminous Saint and Present Buddha Tathagata are now, they had to bow respectfully before Zhunti and Jieyin back then."

"The return of such two great deities to the Buddha Country is terribly bad news for our Daoist Court..."

"The most critical issue is, what is the current situation with the Celestial Venerable?"

"There’s a rumor that Zhunti and Jieyin returned because, not long ago, three Buddhas of the Buddha Country fell, and they specifically went to Qingqiu Land to invite them back."

"And that time coincides precisely with when the Celestial Venerable went to Qingqiu. If the Celestial Venerable didn’t encounter the Western Two Saints, it would be fine."

"But if there was an encounter, does the return of the Western Two Saints mean that the Celestial Venerable..."

The Black Bear Spirit interrupted the crowd’s speculation: "Don’t worry. As long as I’m alive, the boss is definitely alive. Safely returning is not a problem; the issue is how long it’ll take for the boss to return!"

"Exactly," Shen Gongbao said solemnly, "Zhunti and Jieyin’s return must be aimed at our Daoism."

"You know how terrifying their strength is, Daoist Lord."

He reminded Yang Jian, "Even if they are no longer saints and their strength may have diminished compared to the Gods Sealing Era, if they join forces, they will still pose a significant threat!"

During the Gods Sealing Era,

all sides competed. Although it was primarily Daoism’s infighting, it also affected the future prosperity of the Western Sect.

Thus, back then, Zhunti and Jieyin personally entered the fray.

Both he and Yang Jian were among the key figures affected during the Divine Enthronement Tribulation; although they weren’t then qualified to contend with the saints, they had witnessed the battles of saints.

The power of Zhunti and Jieyin was unquestionable, definitely among the finest of the saints!

That is why Shen Gongbao is so worried.

However, Yang Jian said, "They are certainly troublesome, but after all, they are no longer contemporary saints. Even if they join forces and come, I should be able to withstand them for a while."

"What truly worries me is the Great Ming King Peacock!"

Upon hearing this, the gods of the Immortal Palace couldn’t help but exchange worried glances.

The last Celestial Dao Gate, because all competitors with Supreme Yang Qi were slaughtered by Lin Heng,

resulted in that position remaining vacant, with the Celestial Dao Gate lingering over Jambudvipa Continent.

During this time, Quasi-Saints attempted to seize the opportunity to attain enlightenment.

But lacking Supreme Yang Qi, they naturally faced death and soul obliteration during the Saint Tribulation.

Initially, everyone thought this seat would remain vacant until the Celestial Dao Gate vanished on its own.

Who would have thought that a month ago, Great Ming King Peacock appeared and ascended the Celestial Dao Gate!

Strong figures from all sides initially thought this was another act of courting death.

But to everyone’s surprise, Great Ming King Peacock has withstood the Saint Tribulation until now...

Evidently.

This is yet another instance of special treatment from the Heavenly Dao!

Yang Jian said, "Her becoming a saint is almost certain."

"Zhunti and Jieyin coming together already pose enough of a problem."

"Adding a contemporary saint, even if he returns, resisting them might be profoundly difficult..."

The crowd fell silent; this crisis was unprecedented.

One contemporary saint, plus two former saints.

This was likely more troublesome than when Tathagata came personally.

"Thus, the final battle between Buddhist Dao may have already begun."

"Now, we can only hope for the Celestial Venerable’s swift return..."

Shen Gongbao spoke, his tone heavy with gravity.

...

...

On the other side.

Great Leiyin Temple.

All the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas gathered here.

And at the peak of the sea of clouds, sat two sage ancestors of the Buddha Country, vanished for a million years.

"For this battle, Brother Zhunti and I will first proceed to deal with that Daoist Erlang."

"The main army will set off thereafter, hastening the journey to invade the Eastern Immortal Realm as soon as possible."

"This battle must utterly annihilate Daoism, leaving no trace of its legacy!"

Jieyin’s voice was like thunderbolt, resonating throughout Lingshan.

He said solemnly, "What Luminous and Tathagata couldn’t finish, Brother Zhunti and I will lead you to accomplish."

"This battle will determine the fate of all!"

Boom!

A startling thunder tore across the sky in Buddha Country; the killing intent of the saints surged fiercely.

Zhunti and Jieyin, the two saints left Lingshan, the path of Buddha Light spanned the universe, from the Western World straight to the Eastern Immortal Realm.
