The Way of the Immortal Master

Chapter 3861 Visit

Meng Zhang stood outside the Taiyi Realm and watched Guo Tongjinxian leave.

At this time, almost sixty years have passed since Meng Zhang was promoted to Golden Immortal.

In the past sixty years, there have been several powerful people at the Golden Immortal level who have approached Xinyou Border Territory openly or covertly.

Some of them came to visit him openly and tried to make friends with him.

This type of strong people are mainly Taoist Golden Immortals.

Among them, Guo Tongjinxian is a typical representative.

Guo Tong Jinxian is a veteran Jinxian of Taoism. He has always been gentle and likes to support and take care of his younger generations.

At the same time, he also has a strong say in the top management of Dao Sect.

For so many years, he has been running around, trying to eliminate the differences within the Taoist sect, unite the forces of all parties in the Taoist sect, and work together to strengthen the power of the Taoist sect.

He has no enemies within the Taoist sect, but has many friends.

Most of the golden immortals in Taoism are not willing to offend him for no reason, and many times they are still willing to buy him some face.

After learning that Meng Zhang was promoted to Golden Immortal, he took the initiative to visit Meng Zhang.

He was full of goodwill, very happy that the power of Taoism had grown again, and he was very optimistic about the younger golden immortals like Meng Zhang.

Meng Zhang had already heard about famous figures like Guo Tongjinxian.

He felt a little flattered by Fang Yu's condescension and the initiative to visit him.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of cultivation and status within the Taoist sect, Guo Tongjinxian was far above Meng Zhang at this time.

Perhaps Meng Zhang, who has a great future, can one day catch up with or even surpass Guo Tong Jinxian.

But now, as the newly promoted Golden Immortal, he is an out-and-out junior, inferior to his opponent in many aspects.

Meng Zhang received the other party warmly.

Guo Tongjinxian didn't put on any airs of seniority in front of Meng Zhang, and looked approachable.

It is well known that Meng Zhang has a close relationship with Qianyuan Jinxian.

In the past, Meng Zhang was even regarded by many as a vassal of the Qianyuan Golden Immortal.

Now that Meng Zhang has been promoted to Golden Immortal, the relationship between the two parties is naturally very different.

There are differences between strong and weak people at the Golden Immortal level, and there are also differences in status.

But essentially, everyone is at the same level.

It is impossible for one Golden Immortal to be completely dependent on another Golden Immortal.

Everyone can cooperate and form alliances because of interests, and the strong can command the weaker, but the strong must not arbitrarily dominate everything of the weaker.

After Meng Zhang is promoted to Golden Immortal, he can continue to maintain a close relationship with Qianyuan Golden Immortal, and even continue to obey some of the other party's instructions.

However, he has qualified for independence and is no longer completely subordinate.

In the history of Taoism, there are many similar things.

If Qianyuan Jinxian cannot accept these and handle these problems well, there may be more variables in the relationship between him and Meng Zhang.

Guo Tongjinxian took the initiative to visit Meng Zhang this time, not to poach Qianyuan Jinxian and drive a wedge between the two parties.

He is purely a Tao sect senior and works for the interests of the Tao sect.

He hoped that Meng Zhang would be loyal to Taoism and continue to serve Taoism in the future.

Before coming to visit Meng Zhang, he collected a lot of information about Meng Zhang and Taiyi Realm.

He doesn't care about other things. At least Meng Zhang still has a strong sense of identification with Taoist sect and has made many contributions to Taoist sect.

He patiently gave Meng Zhang some advice.

He told Meng Zhang a lot of common sense spread among Golden Immortals, some information about the Golden Immortals of Taoism, and the powerful Golden Immortals among the major cultivation forces in the void...

Although most of what Guo Tongjinxian said was nothing new, Meng Zhang had basically known it for a long time.

Even the information he doesn't know yet is not difficult for him to obtain.

But Guo Tongjinxian's kind approach still made him very grateful.

Guo Tongjinxian stayed in Taiyi Realm for a while. In addition to communicating with Meng Zhang, he also generally observed the situation in Taiyi Realm.

Although there are some other races and other cultivation systems in Taiyi Realm, this cannot change the nature of Taiyi Realm. It is still an out-and-out Taoist cultivation force.

Taiyi Realm stationed in the Xinyou Border Territory and prepared a plan for the development of the unknown land. He also very much agreed and was optimistic about it.

He had a good chat with Meng Zhang, and later he took the initiative to talk to him about their respective cultivation levels.

Although he was far from talking about the core practice, he still talked about many aspects of the practice in the Golden Immortal Realm in a general way.

These things were of great help to Meng Zhang.

Meng Zhang was very grateful to Guo Tongjinxian.

Through this period of contact and communication, Guo Tongjinxian confirmed Meng Zhang’s value to Taoism.

He also personally promised Meng Zhang the status he should have within the Taoist sect.

Since Meng Zhang has a sense of belonging to the Taoist sect and considers himself a member of the Taoist sect, the Taoist sect will not treat him badly.

Soon after, he left Taiyi Realm with satisfaction.

Meng Zhang saw him off personally.

Shortly after Guo Tong Jinxian left, Yuhua Jinxian also took the initiative to visit Taiyi Realm.

It's not like Yuhua Jinxian and Meng Zhang have nothing to do with each other.

The Taoist sects Luo Yu Sect and Tai Yi Jie are allies, and the two sides have a close relationship.

Although Luo Yu Sect does not have a Golden Immortal of its own, it has a close relationship with the Emerged Golden Immortal.

The Luo Yu Sect has been working for the Immortal Golden Immortal for many years and can be regarded as its powerful chess piece.

The Feathering Golden Immortal is an extreme sect within the Taoist sect. It highly advocates the supremacy of the Taoist sect and believes that the Taoist sect should dominate the void and suppress or even attack other cultivation systems.

Not only did Yuhua Jinxian drive Luoyu Sect and other cultivation systems to be enemies many times, he also personally took action many times.

It is worth mentioning that the last time Meng Zhang was besieged by Dao Ze Piaoyun and Dao Xie puppets, he suppressed the Dao Xie puppets, and after spreading the news, it was Luoyu Jinxian who took action from a distance and completely eliminated Dao Ze Piaoyun.

This was just a piece of cake for Luoyu Jinxian at the time, but it helped Meng Zhang a lot.

Luoyu Jinxian disdained to show up in front of a junior like Immortal Master Meng Zhang at that time.

Now that Meng Zhang has been promoted to Jinxian, he took the initiative to visit him.

He is not trying to please Meng Zhang.

With his personality, he also disdained to please other Jinxians.

He just started from the interests of the Taoist sect and hoped that Meng Zhang would support him on some things.

When receiving Guo Tong Jinxian before, Meng Zhang had already expressed his attitude that he would always be a member of the Taoist sect, would put the interests of the Taoist sect first, and would fight for the Taoist sect...

In front of Luoyu Jinxian, he had the same attitude.

Feeling the sincerity in Meng Zhang's tone, Yuhua Jinxian was very satisfied.

Because of the close relationship between Luoyu Sect and Taiyi Realm, although the two met for the first time, there was no estrangement.

Yuhua Jinxian was too extreme in his behavior, and many people in the Taoist sect disliked him.

Some of his actions, in his opinion, were for the sake of the righteousness of the Taoist sect and had great significance.

In the eyes of some people, it was to make enemies for no reason and undermine the overall situation of the Taoist sect.

Yuhua Jinxian was too arrogant and disdained to explain to others.

But many times, he needed the help of other Jinxians.

Many years ago, the Namo Riyue Guang Buddha of the Buddhist sect colluded with the Demonic Path and ambushed Qianyuan Jinxian in Guixu.

If Meng Zhang had not summoned Daolian Jinxian in time, Qianyuan Jinxian might have been in danger of falling.

Yuhua Jinxian had no friendship with Qianyuan Jinxian and Daolian Jinxian, and he did not know the details of that battle. He only knew that the Buddha colluded with the Lord of the Last Law to plot against the Taoist Jinxian.

It was enough for him to know this.

In the Dao Sect, he called for large-scale revenge against the Buddhist Sect and the Demon Sect.

The Demon Sect is the public enemy of the Void, and there is no problem in attacking the Demon Sect. However, as the second largest force in the Void after the Dao Sect, many high-level officials in the Dao Sect do not want to start a full-scale war with the Buddhist Sect because of this matter.

They characterized this matter as a personal grudge between Qianyuan Jinxian and Namo Riyue Guangfo, which has nothing to do with the overall situation between the Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect.

Yuhua Jinxian was very angry about this, but he could do nothing about it.

He ordered Luoyu Sect to take active actions and plan large-scale revenge against Buddhism.

He himself was also actively running around to seek more support.

Unfortunately, most of the high-level officials in the Dao Sect were unwilling to rashly start a full-scale war with Buddhism.

If it was just to retaliate against individual Buddhas in Buddhism, such as Namo Riyue Guangfo, there would be no problem.

Luoyu Jinxian was dissatisfied with the attitude of the high-level officials of the Dao Sect and directly denounced them for being weak.

But he had no supporters in the Dao Sect.

Even the two parties involved, Qianyuan Jinxian and Daolian Jinxian, hated Namo Riyue Guangfo, but they did not want to start a full-scale war with Buddhism.

Without the support of other Jinxians, Yuhua Jinxian could not retaliate against Buddhism on his own.

The large-scale revenge action planned by Luoyu Sect for many years has been delayed due to insufficient strength.

Although Luoyu Sect is a senior and large sect in Taoism, it is impossible to confront the entire Buddhism.

Meng Zhang is very clear about the whole story of this matter.

He also disagrees with rashly starting a full-scale war with Buddhism.

However, in front of Yuhua Jinxian, he still made a promise that if Yuhua Jinxian and Buddhism go to war, he will never sit idly by.

Yuhua Jinxian is very satisfied with Meng Zhang's attitude.

He has long known about the grievances between Taiyi Realm and some sects of Buddhism.

Taiyi Realm has fought large-scale battles with Fahua Sect, Yunmen Sect, etc.

There are many Bodhisattvas who have fallen in Meng Zhang's hands.

As a senior, Yuhua Jinxian gave Meng Zhang, a junior, a lot of advice.

When Yuhua Jinxian left Taiyi Realm, he and Meng Zhang were very satisfied with each other.

Originally, after Meng Zhang was promoted to Jinxian, he should have held a large-scale Dharma Assembly and sent invitations to Jinxian-level powerhouses in the void to invite them to attend the Dharma Assembly.

However, due to the relationship with Taiyi Jinxian, he did not want to deal with too many Jinxian-level powerhouses for the time being.

Especially those mortal enemies of Taiyi Jinxian, who have been tracking down the successor of Taiyi Jinxian.

Although Meng Zhang concealed it very well and was never exposed, if they came to Taiyi Realm in person, they would inevitably see some clues.

But if Meng Zhang deliberately avoided them and did not send them invitations, it would be too deliberate and might arouse their suspicion.

So, Meng Zhang simply did not hold a Dharma Assembly, let alone have a big banquet for the guests.

Jinxian-level powerhouses have different personalities, and Meng Zhang's approach is not out of the ordinary.

Some powerful people at the level of Golden Immortal just don't like to deal with people of the same level, and don't like to interact with the outside world.

Guo Tong Jinxian and Yuhua Jinxian are visiting formally and openly.

There are also some powerful people at the level of Golden Immortal, who just approach the border of Xinyou, or even the Taiyi Realm, to observe secretly.

Some of them are purely curious; some come with a purpose...

Some of them have no position on Meng Zhang; some have malicious intentions...

They secretly observed Meng Zhang and Taiyi Realm, and evaluated all aspects of them.

Meng Zhang was sensitive and had long noticed these guys who were secretly watching.

He identified Xinyou Border as the sphere of influence of Taiyi Realm, and did not allow foreign cultivators to sneak in. All foreign cultivators who entered Xinyou Border had to register with Taiyi Realm...

Such rules can only restrain cultivators below the Golden Immortal level, but not Golden Immortal level cultivators.

He could not rashly go to war with the other party just because the Golden Immortal level cultivator sneaked into Xinyou Border.

Unless the other party showed obvious hostility or invaded Taiyi Realm...

Even if some Golden Immortal-level masters had strong concealment ability and entered Xinyou Border, or even approached Taiyi Realm, he might not be able to detect it in time.

He sat outside Taiyi Realm, monitoring the situation nearby to ensure that foreign Golden Immortal-level masters could not approach recklessly.

These Golden Immortal-level masters were just observing and had no intention of going to war with Meng Zhang for the time being.

After Guo Tong Jinxian visited Meng Zhang, it was considered that the Taoist high-level officials had completely recognized him.

As a Taoist Golden Immortal, Meng Zhang is naturally a member of the Taoist high-level.

As long as he does not openly betray Taoism and violate some taboos within Taoism, he will be protected by Taoism.

If a Golden Immortal-level practitioner outside the Taoist system rashly organizes a siege against him, the Taoist high-level will not sit idly by.

Like the last time when Namo Riyue Guangfo colluded with the Lord of the Last Law to ambush Qianyuan Jinxian and failed, although the Taoist high-level did not carry out a full-scale revenge on Buddhism according to the idea of ​​Yuhua Jinxian, they still solemnly warned Buddhism.

If something similar happens again, the Taoist high-level will settle the old and new accounts together. Not only will they do their best to hunt down Namo Riyue Guangfo, they will also do their best to attack Buddhism.

Until today, there are still some Taoist Golden Immortals hunting down Namo Riyue Guangfo and other parties involved.

It’s just that for various reasons, they have not succeeded for the time being.

The Buddhist high-level dare not ignore the warning of Taoism.

In fact, the action of Namo Riyue Guangfo to ambush Qianyuan Jinxian was not recognized by the top leaders of Buddhism. It was just a private act of a small group of Buddhas within Buddhism.

The top leaders of Taoism are worried that a full-scale war with Buddhism will benefit other cultivation systems.

The top leaders of Buddhism think that they cannot defeat Taoism.

Once a full-scale war breaks out between the two sides, Buddhism will suffer heavy losses and even shake its foundation.

Of course, it does not mean that there can be no struggle between Buddhism and Taoism.

In order to compete for interests, the two sides have openly fought many times, and there will be more secret struggles.

For example, Lingkong Xianjie has fought a large-scale battle with Buddhism and other cultivation systems in Hengling Star Region.

It’s just that Jinxian and Buddha rarely fight head-on.
