No matter which dynasty was established, Bright Temple and Cihang Sword Hall were always revered, and historically, neither Bright Temple nor Cihang Sword Hall intervened in court disputes. However, behind every dynastic change, the shadows of Bright Temple and Cihang Sword Hall loomed, so much so that every generation of a dynasty was determined by these two sects of the Buddhist Sect. In terms of Land Immortals, only the Buddhist Sect possessed Fifth Realm cultivators among all Grotto Heaven forces within Great Xia.
Saint Monk Hui Chan slowly said, "Marquis Yun Gu Zhan being the number one under heaven is actually indisputable, as the saying goes, there is no first in literary arts, but there is no second in martial arts. He possesses a place that none of us Grotto Heaven cultivators can overcome."
Ji Yunyang and the others were very startled,
Never expected that Saint Monk Hui Chan, a Fifth Realm Land Immortal, would evaluate Gu Zhan in such a manner, feeling very puzzled and curious.
At this moment, another female voice chimed in:
"Saint Monk Hui Chan refers to the Method of Divine Sight, which is unrestricted by Grotto Heaven, with this, Marquis Yun Gu Zhan is indeed currently the indisputable number one under heaven."
Following the voice, they looked over, and the speaker was a barefoot woman dressed in a white nun’s robe. She appeared very young, with stunning features, her long black hair cascading down to her waist, hugging her alluring figure, as she walked closer, her body slightly hovering half a foot above the ground, not stepping on it.
"Greetings, Divine Nun Ru Shi!"
Ji Yunyang and the others bowed to the female nun.
This woman was Divine Nun Ru Shi from Cihang Sword Hall. Though she appeared young, her age exceeded a century; it was just her extraordinary cultivation reaching Fifth Realm Grotto Heaven that allowed her to maintain such youthful beauty, making her look like a woman of sixteen.
Divine Nun Ru Shi clasped her hands in prayer, returning the greeting to them, and slowly said, "Gu Zhan is indeed exceptionally gifted. Despite the end of the road in martial arts, he was able to break the limits of martial arts, creating the Method of Divine Sight, and his strength is unparalleled, worthy of being called number one under heaven."
Ji Yunyang was somewhat surprised and said, "Daring to claim number one under heaven in front of both Divine Nun Ru Shi and Saint Monk Hui Chan?"
Divine Nun Ru Shi slowly nodded and said, "He can break through Dao Ma Pass with his own strength. Purely discussing this explosive power, even I cannot achieve it. Of course, this is also because he walks the path of direct confrontation.
Although I can maneuver against him, facing the peak Gu Zhan, I can only maneuver and temporarily avoid conflict. However, his method with such massive expenditure of power has another advantage; it is not restricted by Grotto Heaven’s spiritual power. After the burst, if he retreats directly, no Grotto Heaven cultivator can compete with him in terms of endurance."
Saint Monk Hui Chan nodded and said, "Indeed, this is the case; I do have an Unmoving Ming King Body style to confront Marquis Yun directly, but at most three or four rounds, I will fall to a disadvantage. Marquis Yun’s Method of Divine Sight, standing amidst Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, also moves freely, and if I were alone, at most two rounds, I must retreat and distance myself!"
Ji Yunyang’s pupils contracted slightly, feeling somewhat appalled,
Listening to these two high monks from the Buddhist Sect speak like this, he finally understood just how valuable Gu Zhan’s title of number one under heaven truly was, and only now did he comprehend Gu Zhan’s highly revered status in today’s world.
"Well..." Ji Yunyang looked at Ji Fu and Lü Chang and said, "Is there absolute certainty?"
Ji Fu chuckled and said, "Fear not, Crown Prince, with Divine Nun Ru Shi and Saint Monk Hui Chan holding the line, naturally, there is no mistake. Although Gu Zhan is powerful, he is merely a trapped beast fighting back!"
Just then,
Under the moonlight, two groups of people appeared densely packed,
The leaders were Ji Family Ancestor and Lü Family Ancestors.
Ji Family Ancestor was a nearly two hundred-year-old Fourth Realm Grotto Heaven Cultivator, with three Land Immortals and over a dozen Supreme Grandmasters behind him, while Lü Family Ancestors were also Fourth Realm Grotto Heaven Cultivators, bringing four Land Immortals and over a dozen Supreme Grandmasters.
Ji Family Ancestor and Lü Family Ancestors both paid their respects from afar to Saint Monk Hui Chan and Divine Nun Ru Shi.
"For this battle, I must ask the two of you to assist with all your strength!" Ji Family Ancestor clasped his hands together and said, "Gu Zhan is formidable, but he is vengeful; we cannot let him escape, or it will be endless trouble!"
Lü Family Ancestors said, "Once we capture him and obtain the Method of Divine Sight, it will surely be presented to you."
Saint Monk Hui Chan nodded slightly and said, "The Method of Divine Sight is secondary to the Buddhist Sect; the main concern is retrieving the Inheritance Technique lost in Spirit Fox Cave."
Lü Family Ancestors nodded and said, "Rest assured, Saint Monk, we deliberately lured Gu Zhan to Qixia Mountain to have him retrieve the Immortal Sect inheritance from Spirit Fox Cave. However, is Saint Monk certain that Gu Zhan indeed acquired the Spirit Fox Demon Pill?"
Saint Monk Hui Chan nodded and said, "In the battle at Dao Ma Pass, although Marquis Yun covered it up well, he wasn’t aware that all our Buddhist Sect Grotto Heaven cultivators have special prohibitions. We’ve already restored the scene through prohibitions. Master Huai Su and Tai’e Divine Nun both perished by his hands, and Lady of Echigo went missing, certainly destroyed by him. The Spirit Fox Demon Pill was surely taken by him."
Lü Family Ancestors realized and said, "I see, it seems his primary goal in coming to Qixia Mountain was this!"
Qixia Mountain, Hu Ben Battalion.
Gu Zhan and his entourage arrived, but before they approached the barracks, they were stopped by a patrol team of soldiers. However, once Li Anle revealed his identity, they were quickly led into the barracks by that team of soldiers.
Meanwhile, having received news, the Hu Ben Battalion Commander Ji Songlie directly approached them with his men, and from afar, Ji Songlie saw Gu Zhan and his group. Among the crowd, his focus immediately was on Gu Zhan, without paying any heed to others.
