Chapter 72 On Feilai Peak, the Martial Saints Duel!
Yuwen Piaoxu is dying.
Yuwen Piaoxu's martial arts talent is actually not worse than Zhou Yue's.
If she could be enlightened to martial arts at the age of eight like other martial artists, she should have already broken through to the Martial Saint.
But unfortunately, Yuwen Piaoxu's meridians were blocked since childhood and she could not practice.
It was not until she was in her twenties that Zhao Mu opened up her meridians and she finally started practicing, but she still missed the best age for enlightenment.
One step late, every step late!
Now Yuwen Piaoxu is over eighty years old, her body is very old, and there is no hope of breaking through to the Martial Saint.
Recently, Yuwen Piaoxu can feel that her body is getting older and weaker. I am afraid that in a few years, she will reach the end of her life.
So in order to let Yuwen Piaoxu spend the rest of her life happily, Zhao Mu and Zhou Yue took her and left Daoxin Valley again.
Yuwen Piaoxu's lifelong wish is to travel around the world, so the two of them are going to take her out again to see the places they didn't go to last time.
In a few years, they traveled all over the world again.
When they passed through the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom, they found that the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom no longer existed.
Not long after the East Sea Fairyland incident, many people thought that the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom would start a war with the Great Jin Dynasty again to regain the glory of the Buddhist Kingdom on earth.
After all, Mu Xinzhi and Sima Tongsheng were both geniuses, so how could they surrender easily?
But unexpectedly, just when people were looking forward to the two heroes fighting for hegemony, Mu Xinzhi suddenly led people to the Great Jin Dynasty to meet Sima Tongsheng.
After several negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreement-
In the next ten to twenty years, Mu Xinzhi will lead the Buddhist monks to gradually give up the administrative power of the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom, and the officials sent by the Great Jin Dynasty will take over.
They chose a smooth transition method to try to prevent large-scale turmoil in the government and the people.
Finally, like water moistening all things, the people of the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom were completely integrated into the Great Jin Dynasty.
As a condition, Sima Tongsheng had to formally issue an order to allow Buddhists to build temples in various parts of the Jin Dynasty and spread the Buddhist heritage.
On the surface, Mu Xinzhi's abandonment of the Jinlun Kingdom seemed to be a huge loss.
But only those who can see the situation clearly can truly understand Mu Xinzhi's wisdom.
The Jin Dynasty is too powerful now, and Sima Tongsheng is an extremely capable emperor.
Under his planning and operation, the administrative power of Buddhism over the Jinlun Kingdom will be deprived and eroded step by step, and finally completely destroyed.
In that case, there will be fierce fighting between the two sides, but Buddhism will definitely suffer in the end.
Even if Sima Tongsheng is annoyed and the national policy of destroying Buddhism is directly implemented throughout the country, the Buddhist heritage will probably be reduced to dust.
Since there is no power to fight, it is better to go with the flow, take the initiative to give up the Jinlun Kingdom, and concentrate on developing believers in the world.
Mu Xinzhi's goal is to spread Buddhism and Taoism in the Jin Dynasty, so that Buddhism can take deep roots in the Jin Dynasty and prosper in another way.
The subsequent development of the situation was indeed as Mu Xinzhi expected.
Thirty years later, the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom no longer exists, but Buddhism has already had a larger number of believers in the Great Jin Dynasty.
Even now, Buddhism has long become the first sect in the Great Jin Dynasty, surpassing all other sects.
Zhao Mu and his three friends left the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom and continued to travel eastward. A few months later, they returned to the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty.
They had not set foot in this city for decades.
Now they come back again and find that there have been great changes here.
The layout of the capital seems to have changed a little. Obviously, the court has renovated the streets in the city.
And on Feilai Peak outside the city, a Zen Heart Temple has also been established.
Zen Heart Temple is a temple established by Mu Xinzhi after he left the Great Golden Wheel Kingdom. It is also the first sect of Buddhism today and has the right to lead the Buddhist world.
Mu Xinzhi has also broken through the Martial Saint and become one of the world's top powerhouses.
There are crowds of people under Feilai Peak.
"I heard that Jianchi is going to challenge Mu Xinzhi, the founder of Chanxin Temple, today?"
"Yes, look at these people, they are all going up the mountain to watch the duel between the two top masters."
"Wow, isn't that the imperial guards? Even His Majesty is here. It seems that the duel between Jianchi and Mu Xinzhi is really attracting much attention."
"That's normal. After all, they are the fifth and fourth peerless masters on the Heavenly Ranking. A duel of this level will naturally cause shock to the court and the public."
"Yes, it's a pity that the number one poison doctor and the number two Zhou Yue have been elusive for many years. Otherwise, if the two of them I know, I will definitely come to watch. "
"Who do you think is stronger, Jianchi or Mu Xinzhi?"
"Mu Xinzhi, after all, he ranks fourth on the Heavenly Ranking, which makes sense for him to be better than Jianchi."
"Not necessarily, the rankings of the Heavenly Ranking are determined by the court. In fact, the five martial saints have never really fought each other before. Who dares to say that the ones ranked in the front are definitely stronger than the ones ranked behind?"
"You are right. Except for the poison doctor who ranks first in the world, it is really hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker among the others?"
People are talking about the upcoming top battle.
In the crowd, Zhao Mu and the other two walked up the mountain in a low-key manner.
"It has been thirty years, and the outside world has changed a lot. I didn't expect Sima Tongsheng and Mu Xinzhi to have entered the realm of martial saints, and there is also a sword-crazy martial saint. It is really unpredictable. "
Yuwen Piaoxu sighed softly.
She actually yearned for the realm of the Martial Saint, but unfortunately, she had no hope in this life.
In front, the imperial guards separated the crowd and escorted a dragon sedan forward. The person sitting on the sedan was naturally Sima Tongsheng.
Sima Tongsheng is now over 50 years old.
Compared with the high-spirited youth, Sima Tongsheng has been in power for many years, and his youthful spirit has long been wiped out. He exudes the tyranny of a supreme being.
Especially since he is a Martial Saint, his every move exudes a majesty that people dare not look directly at.
"Yuer, can you beat Sima Tongsheng now?"
Yuwen Piaoxu looked at Zhou Yue.
"It's hard to say without a fight." Zhou Yue shook her head.
Zhao Mu said, "Yuer should be able to win against Sima Tongsheng by a few points. After all, there is a 30-year age difference between the two. Yuer entered the Martial Saint realm earlier than Sima Tongsheng."
"But she can't win by too much. After all, Sima Tongsheng's martial arts talent is much stronger than Yuer's. In this way, the gap between them due to age should be narrowed."
After Zhao Mu finished speaking, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was wrong.
He turned his head quickly and found that Zhou Yue was glaring at him fiercely, while Yuwen Piaoxu next to him was laughing secretly.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Mu was puzzled.
Zhou Yue twisted two fingers towards his waist: "Who are you saying is old?"
"Oh!"
Zhao Mu took a breath and shouted directly, attracting the attention of people around him.
Oh my!
I was so busy evaluating the cultivation that I actually said something wrong.
Age is a woman's Achilles' heel!
How could I forget this?
