Chapter 2509 Shangqing VS Taiqing

Chapter 2505: Shangqing VS Taiqing

 The old immortal mentioned by Yinglong naturally does not refer to Taoist Yuqing.

The Yuqing sect has all abandoned the secrets and turned to the light, and is preparing to stand on the side of Da Qin. Naturally, Yinglong will not scold his own people, so he can only be a Taiqing Taoist.

“Taoist Taoist Taiqing is coming down the mountain?”

Ying Hao was startled, and then asked: "When?"

“Just three days ago, Taoist Yuqing came out to stop him immediately, but he probably failed,” Yinglong said.

"Oh? Taoist Yuqing came forward to stop it?"

Ying Hao suddenly showed a look of surprise. None of the people he sent had reached Kunlun. If this is true, it means that Yuqing has expressed his stance with practical actions.

"Yes, according to the news, the two people discussed Taoism on the top of Kunlun for a day and a night, but they still failed to prevent Taiqing from going down the mountain."

Hearing what Ying Long said, Ying Hao was overjoyed. Now that Taoist Yuqing was on his side, no one could stop him from unifying the world.

“Taoist Taiqing did not come down the mountain for more than ten years, but he came down after Li Shimin’s death.

It seems that Jiang Shang's guess is correct. Li Shimin is the bottom line of Taiqing Taoist people. Anyone who dares to touch Li Shimin will be killed.

Taoist Taiqing came down the mountain this time. His grandson must have died and he came to seek revenge on me and claim his life. "

Ying Hao sneered. Although he was Taiqing's grandson-in-law, he had no good impression of Taiqing.

If this old guy hadn't escorted Li Shimin, he would have killed Li Shimin eight times.

In this Guanzhong battle, Ying Hao actually didn't expect to kill Li Shimin. After all, Taiqing's half-step Xuanjing's intimidating power was still very high.

With Da Qin’s current background, although he is not afraid of the opponent, he is not absolutely sure to keep the opponent.

 In today's world, four are at the half-step profound realm, two are at the half-step profound realm, and three of them are on the side of Great Qin.

In addition, Taoist Yuqing is also inseparable. Even if he does not take action directly and completely falls out with Taiqing, he will definitely not help Taiqing.

Shangqing and Taiyi are in the half-step profound realm, and Yinglong is in the quasi-half-step profound realm. The three of them can definitely defeat Taiqing together.

 But you must know that both Shangqing, Yuqing and Taiqing are brothers, and the three of them have had a relationship for decades.

Although Shangqing is now on the side of Daqin, if he is allowed to kill Taiqing, Shangqing's character of attaching great importance to love and justice will definitely not be able to do so.

 Similarly, the same goes for Yuqing.

 So, when dealing with Taiqing, Yuqing and Shangqing cannot help.

 Only relying on Taiyi and Yinglong may be able to defeat Taiqing, but they may not be able to keep Taiqing. If this old guy escapes, there will be endless troubles.

 Therefore, Ying Hao did not want to have a head-on conflict with Taiqing before he was sure of victory, that is, before Yinglong broke through the Half-step Profound Realm.

However, due to God's will, Li Shimin died fortunately, and it was too late to say anything, so Ying Hao could only bear Taiqing's wrath head-on.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. As long as the minister is still alive, even if Taiqing comes in person, he will not hurt Your Majesty at all."

Yinglong clasped his fists and said in a deep voice, his words full of determination.

"Just not hurt? Can't we keep this old guy forever?" Ying Hao asked.

Yinglong fell into silence when he heard this. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "If my subordinates break through the Half-step Profound Realm and join forces with Taiyi, they will definitely be able to keep Taiqing, but now..."

Yinglong did not continue speaking, but Ying Hao knew what he meant.

 This is not sure.

 “It is my will that all the great master-level worshipers in the temple go to Huashan.” Ying Hao said with an indifferent expression.

Yinglong was shocked: "Your Majesty, are you trying to..."

　　"The planning is up to man, the fulfillment is up to heaven, everything is mine. There is no need to worry about anything else when making great offerings, just do your best."

Ying Hao put his hands behind his back, with his back facing the dragon, and said calmly: "It is my will that Li Shimin be buried in Huashan with royal honors. I will also go to Huashan in person to worship."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

Yinglong shouted and left with a heavy heart.

He knew that His Majesty was determined this time and must take this opportunity to get rid of Taiqing. Even if it cost the lives of all the great masters in the country, he must get rid of Taiqing.

Yinglong felt a little guilty, thinking that he could not help Ying Hao better. After all, if he could make a breakthrough, he would not have to waste so much effort.

Looking at Ying Long's back, Ying Hao said to himself: "I have laid out the battlefield, Taiqing, do you dare to come?"

Following Ying Hao's order, many powerful men in the Great Qin Consecration Hall rushed to Huashan after hearing the news.

 The whole world was shaken for a while.

The people of the world who didn't know why turned their attention to Huashan one after another, and wanted to know what Ying Hao wanted to do by summoning such powerful people.

Soon they got the answer. It turned out that Taoist Taiqing came down from the mountain to avenge his grandson Li Shimin.

Ying Hao summoned the great masters of the Qin Dynasty just to protect himself and hunt down Taoist Taiqing.

All the princes were naturally very excited about this. There were so many great masters in Da Qin that they could hardly breathe, so they all hoped that Taiqing could be like Ying Long and defeat all the great masters in Da Qin. If they don't, their pressure will naturally be much less.

If this is the case, Taiqing Taoists may also be in trouble, but what does this have to do with them? He could just watch a good show.

Taoist Shangqing, who had already arrived in Guanzhong, learned all this and knew that Ying Hao was determined to kill Taiqing, so he immediately approached Ying Hao.

"Your Majesty, the old man can take action this time, but I hope that your Majesty will spare Taiqing's life and let him live out his old age peacefully."

Taoist Shangqing said with hope, which showed that he did not want Taiqing to die.

Sanqing grew up together, and Shangqing was brought up by Taiqing. After decades of love, how could he bear to watch Taiqing die?

Ying Hao had already guessed Taoist Shangqing's reaction, but he neither agreed nor refused.

"As long as Taiqing is willing to put aside his grudges, return to the mountain to practice Taoism, and promises not to interfere in the world's general affairs, I can let him live out his old age peacefully."

Ying Hao's reasonable appeal left Shangqing speechless. After all, the leading power was not with Ying Hao, but with Taiqing.

Shangqing understands Taiqing well. His senior brother seems to be doing nothing, but in fact he does everything. He seems to be too supreme and forgets his feelings, but in fact he is extremely affectionate.

 Let him give up his grudges voluntarily? This is absolutely impossible.

It's not Ying Hao's fault that Shangqing knew this. He had no reason to stop Ying Hao, so he could only stop Taiqing. Shangqing asked for the Qingping Sword from his apprentice Li Cunxiao, and borrowed the Zhanlu Sword from Ying Hao, and headed for Sanguan with the two divine swords in hand.

After Taiqing went to Kunlun, there was more than one way to enter Guanzhong, but the shortest way was through Sanguan.

Shangqing will persuade Taiqing to go back at Sanguan. If Taiqing doesn't listen to the advice, he will set up a sword formation to kill the immortal and beat him back forcibly.

Yuqing failed to prevent Taiqing from going down the mountain, but it does not mean that he will fail to go up to Qing.

 In any case, Shangqing must prevent Taiqing from going to Huashan. This is not only for the good of Taiqing, but also for the good of Taoism.

Ying Hao was well aware of Shangqing's decision. Instead of stopping it, he was happy to see it come to fruition.

It would be best if Shangqing succeeded in persuading Taiqing to retreat, or even defeated Taiqing.

It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work. At least it will consume a lot of Taiqing. When Taiqing arrives at Huashan, how much strength will he have left?

 So, instead of stopping Ying Hao, he also gave Shangqing two famous swords and asked him to use four famous swords to set up the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

Yunxiao, Jin Ling, Gui Ling, and Wudang, the four great saints, learned that their master was very old but still wanted to stop Master Taiqing alone. They all wanted to go with them to help, but they were rejected by Shangqing Taoist.

Ying Hao didn’t know why Shangqing rejected the kindness of his disciples. Maybe he himself wanted to fight Taiqing with all his strength.

After being sent to the Qing Dynasty, Ying Hao not only sent a message asking Xiang Yu to come to help, but also recalled Sun Lingming from the Liangzhou front line, plus Kong Xuan and Li Cunxiao, as well as more than 20 great masters.

Ying Hao didn't believe that such a lineup would not be able to retain Taiqing Taoist.

 Because of Taiqing's descent from the mountain, the originally tense situation in Hanzhong was relaxed.

Liu Yu struggled for three days and decided to swallow up the three counties of Hanzhong, and he was not prepared to be forceful. After all, this would only make Da Qin easier.

Su Qin proposed a plan to let Liu Yu first alienate the relationship between Li Xiaogong and Li Tang's senior officials, and at the same time instigate rebellion within Li Tang, find opportunities to divide and disintegrate, and capture the three counties of Hanzhong in one fell swoop.

Liu Yu acted according to Su Qin's plan, but he didn't expect that the next step would be full of surprises.

During the Second Guanzhong War, Kong Peng, who was injured by the Qin general, received Liu Yu's invitation to join the Shu camp without any hesitation.

Liu Yu almost effortlessly subdued a strong general who was at the same level as his younger brother Liu Er, and he did not suspect that Kong Peng had any evil intentions. After all, his two sworn brothers died at the hands of Da Qin. Who could let him take revenge? It's normal for him to change who he is.

In addition, many Tang generals such as Shi Jingtang were also extremely tempted by Liu Yu's wooing, and they obviously did not want to stay on Li Tang's broken ship.

The internal affairs of Li Tang were too fragile, and Liu Yu easily completed the separation and division. He was about to annex the three counties of Hanzhong, but he learned that Taoist Taiqing had come down from the mountain and that Ying Hao had buried Li Shimin in Huashan.

These two pieces of news may seem unrelated, but in fact they are inextricably linked.

Taoist Taiqing has not gone down the mountain for more than ten years. Why did he come down now? Obviously he came to avenge his grandson.

By burying Li Shimin in Huashan at this time, Ying Hao was clearly telling Taoist Taoist Taiqing that I was waiting for you in Huashan.

Liu Yu didn't expect Ying Hao to be so stubborn. If it were him, he would have given in. After all, he was a Taoist from Taiqing. He thought like a **** that there was no shame in giving in.

But Ying Hao didn't. Instead, he put aside his position and waited for the other party to come.

Liu Yu admired and envied Ying Hao's methods. If he had the background of Da Qin, he would dare to go head-to-head with Taiqing, but it is a pity that he does not have the capital.

The impact of this incident was so great that Liu Yu did not even think about annexing Hanzhong. Although he did not think that Taiqing could escape from being surrounded by many great masters of Qin, but what if he really escaped?

 When the time comes and Hanzhong is occupied by the Shu Kingdom, will Taoist Taoist Taiqing come back to trouble him again after he recovers from his injuries?

Liu Yu didn't know this, but he had to take it into consideration, so he suspended his plan to annex Hanzhong and instead waited to see what the outcome of Taiqing's descent would be.

“Master Sakyamuni, I haven’t seen you for a long time, but the master’s style remains the same.” Liu Yu said to Sakyamuni with a smile.

 “Amitofu.”

After Shakyamuni bowed, he asked: "His Royal Highness the King of Chengdu has invited poor monks to come here. What do you want to give him?"

“I would like the master to go to Mount Huashan on my behalf.”

After hearing this, Sakyamuni smiled and said: "Even if His Highness doesn't mention it, the poor monk will go."

 “Oh? Why is this?”

"Your Highness may not know something. Before becoming a monk, this poor monk was a disciple of the Shangqing Sect of Taoism."

“I know that the master is still the disciple of Taoist Shangqing.”

“Yes, the poor monk is indeed a disciple of the Shangqing Dynasty, but he also practices the unique learning of the Yuqing and Taiqing schools. The three Taoist Taoists of the Three Qing Dynasties are actually the mentors of the poor monk.”

 “Then Master why…”

Liu Yu stopped before he finished speaking. He originally wanted to ask Sakyamuni why he rebelled against Taoism and became a Buddha, but now the Buddhists are the most supportive of him. It would be too rude for him to ask this question.

Shakyamuni smiled calmly and said: "There is nothing that cannot be said. The poor monk rebelled against the Buddha just to reveal the truth of the world, and the master and the two uncles also acquiesced."

 “The truth of the world?”

Liu Yu murmured to himself and wanted to continue asking, but no matter how he asked, Sakyamuni just said it was not the time yet.

"Master uncle has been very kind to the poor monk. Now that he is trapped by selfishness and wants to defy heaven with his own efforts, the poor monk will naturally give him a ride."

Hearing this, Liu Yu's face suddenly became ugly. Although he didn't want Taiqing to live, he didn't want Taiqing to die. But according to Sakyamuni, Taiqing might be in trouble this time. That’s it.

After Sakyamuni said goodbye to Liu Yu, he went to Huashan alone. Mozi, Shennong, Confucius, Fuxi and other famous people also came to Huashan one after another.

At the same time, five miles away from Sanguan, the Shangqing Taoist who was sitting on the road finally waited for Taiqing who came down the mountain.

“Senior Brother, you shouldn’t have come down the mountain.” Taoist Shangqing said with a complicated look.

"Are you going to stop me like the second junior brother?" Taiqing Taoist said coldly.

“That’s right, if you want to get through, just break my Zhuxian Sword Formation.”

After saying that, Taoist Shangqing didn't waste any words. Four famous swords flew out from behind him, from the southeast to the northwest, covering Taoist Taiqing.

Immediately afterwards, four red, blue, black and white sword energies soared into the sky, piercing even the clouds in the sky.

 Zhuxian Sword Formation, rise.

On the tower of Sanguan City, when Bismarck saw this scene, he was so shocked that he couldn't even open his mouth.

He had seen a similar scene during the Haojing War not long ago, and he didn't want to see it again so soon.
