Terran Guardian - Chapter 3791

Chapter 3767 This Seat of Bodhi

With the fall of top experts like the Qian Yuan Saint Lord and a host of Immortal Emperors,

the remaining cultivators of the four major forces were utterly demoralized and no match for the Fuyao Holy Land.

Although Hao Yang was severely injured, he was still a top expert of the Fuyao Holy Land, and his attack was a devastating blow to the other cultivators.

Meanwhile,

the Fuyao Holy Land’s morale soared.

The situation had instantly reversed.

In less than half a day, most of the cultivators from the four major forces had been killed or wounded, with only a few managing to escape.

When the last enemy cultivator from the Fuyao Holy Land fell, the battle was finally over.

“Elder Feng!”

“What are your orders, Saint Lord?”

“Arrange for the other disciples to clean up the battlefield and tally the casualties. There must be no errors.”

Hao Yang ordered in a deep voice, and Feng Zhuqing nodded in agreement.

Then…

He looked towards another immortal mountain and then said, “No disciple of the Holy Land may set foot there without my permission, or they will be expelled from the Holy Land!”

“This humble Daoist obeys!”

Feng Zhuqing took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.

She naturally understood Haoyang’s meaning.

There was a supreme being living in seclusion on that immortal mountain. If the cultivators of the Holy Land disturbed that being and displeased him, it would be a calamity for the entire Fuyou Holy Land.

Thinking of the hand that had destroyed the Immortal Emperors of the four major powers, a chill ran through Feng Zhuqing’s heart.

That kind of strength

was completely beyond what cultivators like herself could contend with.

The so-called Immortal Emperors were no different from ants in front of that being.

Feng Zhuqing was 100% certain that such a powerful being was at least a half-saint who had reached the pinnacle of immortality, and possibly even stronger.

Without the strength of a half-saint, how could one easily achieve this?

Therefore,

without Haoyang’s orders, Feng Zhuqing would not allow any other cultivators to rashly set foot there.

After all, many powerful individuals have eccentric personalities and unpredictable ways of doing things.

But doing nothing is at least the best course of action.

If such powerful individuals were to be angered, the destruction of the Holy Land’s lineage would be imminent.

Feng Zhuqing was not naive enough to believe that the Fuyou Holy Land could contend with such beings. After

giving a brief explanation, Haoyang headed towards the Immortal Mountain.

Upon entering the Immortal Mountain, he landed and, as if guided by some unseen force, walked deeper into the mountain.

Before long, an Immortal Mansion came into view.

Upon seeing this mansion, Haoyang’s mind was shaken.

The Immortal Mansion was clearly within sight, yet it seemed to completely disappear within his divine sense.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would have even suspected that the Immortal Mansion was merely an illusion.

This scene

filled Haoyang with even greater awe.

Seemingly illusory yet not illusory!

Seemingly real yet not real!

This method wasn’t particularly sophisticated, but for a top-tier Immortal Emperor to be unable to discern any clues was extraordinary.

Half-Saint!

At this moment, Hao Yang became even more certain of his thoughts.

When he arrived before the Immortal Abode, he saw a stone tablet standing to one side, with the two characters “Bodhi” engraved on it. Every stroke was perfectly natural, containing boundless power of the Great Dao. The

instant Hao Yang’s gaze fell on the stone tablet, a terrifying pressure swept over him, as if towering ancient trees were supporting the sky, and an unparalleled torrent of the Great Dao was engulfing everything.

The next moment,

all the Daoist aura suddenly dissipated.

Hao Yang stood there, stunned. When he looked at the stone tablet again, no unusual phenomena appeared. It was as if it were just an ordinary object.

He took a deep breath, cupped his hands towards the Immortal Abode, and said loudly, “This junior, Hao Yang, the Holy Lord of the Fuyou Holy Land, has come to pay my respects to Senior!” As soon as he

finished speaking,

the space of the Immortal Abode before him slightly distorted and rippled. Then he saw towering ancient trees, and beneath them sat a purple-robed Daoist.

Hao Yang’s mind trembled. He took three steps forward in two and bowed deeply to Shen Changqing.

“Many thanks to Senior for your help in rescuing the Fuyou Holy Land from its peril. May I ask your name?”

“Name? I am Bodhi!”

Shen Changqing replied calmly.

Bodhi?

Upon hearing this title, Haoyang immediately searched his memory for any information about such a being.

But alas.

Nothing!

Nothing at all!

Haoyang was not surprised by this result.

There were countless powerful figures in Dongming Immortal Continent; he was not naive enough to believe he knew the existence of all of them.

“So you are Senior Bodhi. This junior was unaware that you were living in seclusion here and was unable to pay my respects immediately. I hope you will forgive me.”

Haoyang suppressed his thoughts, his expression filled with reverence.

Shen Changqing shook his head: “I have been living in seclusion here, and I had no intention of interfering in the conflicts of the outside world. My intervention this time was only because they disturbed my cultivation, and it has little to do with your Fuyao Holy Land.

Therefore, you don’t need to take this matter to heart.”

“That may be true, but Senior’s actions ultimately saved my Fuyao Holy Land from dire straits, how could I not be grateful?”

Haoyang’s expression remained respectful, his words filled with gratitude.

Shen Changqing glanced at him and said indifferently: “If there is nothing else, you may go about your business.”

“Senior, if you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask. I am willing to serve you. In that case, I will not disturb your cultivation any longer. I will visit you again another day. Farewell!”

Seeing that Shen Changqing had given him the order to leave, Haoyang did not continue to shamelessly stay. He said respectfully and then took his leave.

Shen Changqing watched the other’s departing figure, and then withdrew his gaze.

Just as he said.

Killing the Qian Yuan Holy Lord and the others was merely a matter of convenience.

Shen Changqing initially didn’t want to get involved in the conflict between the Fuyou Holy Land, but the battle between the two forces affected him, leaving him no choice but to intervene.

Since he had already intervened, he naturally had to clean things up.

Therefore,

the fall of the Immortal Emperors of the four major powers was a foregone conclusion.

However—

Haoyang’s visit this time gave Shen Changqing some new ideas.

In his mind, living in seclusion in the Fuyou Holy Land and patiently awaiting the Great Tribulation would undoubtedly be the easiest course of action.

However, now that the Fuyou Holy Land was aware of his existence, Shen Changqing had other plans.

Currently,

although there were many Acquired Demon Gods in the Xingdao Alliance within the Star Luo Immortal Realm, these Acquired Demon Gods were too weak. Aside from gathering intelligence, they could do little else.

But this ancient immortal continent’s top immortal realm still had many powerful figures.

To date,

no fewer than several hundred Acquired Demon Gods had perished.

Some of these fallen Acquired Demon Gods had accidentally entered forbidden areas and been suppressed by the Daoist energy there; others had been accidentally killed by passing powerful figures.

Still others had been killed by the aftershocks of battles between other powerful figures.

In short,

they were too weak!

They struggled to survive in this immortal realm.

If he could have a force serving him and secretly gathering cultivation resources, Shen Changqing would certainly find it appealing.

Of course,

ideas are

one thing, but how to actually do it required further observation.

…

On the other side.

When Haoyang left the Bodhi Immortal Mansion and returned to the Holy Land Immortal Palace, the few remaining Immortal Emperors of the Fuyao Holy Land were gathered there.

Originally,

the entire Fuyao Holy Land had nineteen Immortal Emperors, but fifteen perished in the battle with the Qianyuan Holy Land.

Later,

with the attack of the four major forces,

another Immortal Emperor fell.

Therefore,

now, in this vast Holy Land, including Haoyang, only three Immortal Emperors remain.

One is Haoyang, one is Feng Zhuqing, and the remaining one is an Immortal Emperor named Ye Changge.

At the same time ,

the latter is the peak master of the Second Peak and is currently the strongest person in the Fuyao Holy Land, second only to Haoyang.

Upon seeing Haoyang’s return, Ye Changge couldn’t help but ask, “Holy Lord, what is the background of that senior?”

Hearing

this, Feng Zhuqing’s bright eyes also filled with curiosity.

Haoyang said in a deep voice, “That senior calls himself Bodhi. His specific background is unknown to me. However, he prefers quiet cultivation and dislikes being disturbed, so without my order, no one is allowed to disturb him.

Furthermore, the Thousand Mile Immortal Mountain where he resides is a forbidden area of the Holy Land; no cultivator is allowed to enter without permission.”   He paused, his expression serious, “You all clearly see the strength of that senior. Such an existence is far beyond what our Fuyao Holy Land can afford to offend.

On   the contrary, his seclusion within the Holy Land is a valuable opportunity.   If we can gain his favor, the benefits are unimaginable.   However, this matter cannot be rushed; we must proceed gradually. I will personally oversee this matter. If other cultivators interfere, it might backfire!   ”   Both Ye Changge and Hao Yang nodded.   Although they were also curious about that senior, since Hao Yang had spoken, they could only suppress their curiosity and not delve too deeply.   Then,   Ye Changge changed the subject: “Now that the forces like the Qian Yuan Holy Land have all lost their Immortal Emperors, the four major forces have suffered heavy losses. Should we take advantage of this and wipe them all out?”   Hao Yang was clearly tempted, but he quickly shook his head and refused.   ”The four major powers are not as simple as they appear on the surface. Although the loss of many powerful figures has severely weakened them, the Holy Lands have also suffered significant losses. Of   the nineteen Immortal Emperors, only three remain—ourselves. How easy is it to destroy the four major powers now?   Let’s put this matter aside for now. Besides, the four major powers are also deeply entrenched internally. With the loss of so many powerful figures, their internal situation will not be stable.   The Holy Lands only need to observe and wait. Perhaps they will fight each other to the death without our intervention!”   If the Fuyao Holy Land had not suffered such severe losses, Haoyang would certainly not have missed this opportunity.   Whether it’s the Qianyuan Holy Land or the Beidou Immortal Sect, their foundations are both formidable. Destroying and annexing either of them would be a great opportunity for the Fuyao Holy Land.   But the problem is…   the Fuyao Holy Land is not in much better shape now.   With only three of the nineteen Immortal Emperors remaining, it is already in a precarious situation.   If war were to break out again at this time, any mishap would mean that not only would annexing other powers be impossible, but even preserving its own foundation would be a question.   Haoyang naturally wouldn’t take any risks in this regard.
