Chapter 481 War and Unification

In February of the fourth year of Chanwu, the entire Buddhist country suddenly began to operate.

The issuance of political and military orders soon broke the tranquility of the entire people and the idea of ​​peaceful development of those clans.

A large number of battle formations, elixirs, and refining workshops were compulsorily collected by the state, and began to be uniformly produced, supplied, and allocated.

Zhao Yuanxin established military departments such as "Wuyuanwei" and "Wubingwei", and began to recruit a large number of cultivators of the fourth realm and above to join them.

"Wuyuanwei" focuses on recruiting warriors.

"Wubingwei" simply looks at the realm and fighting strength.

This change made all the cultivators have a premonition that the Buddhist country seems to be taking action!

It's just that I don't know who the target is, is it the Wheel of the Way? Or the Chengping Way?

Apart from these two families, the other forces are not worth the Buddhist country's big fight.

However, due to the extremely generous compensation conditions of the Buddhist country, many people chose to join the army within half a month.

Zhao Yuan planned to send one faction to the east and the other to the west, attacking the Wheel and the Chengping Dao respectively.

Therefore, there were naturally some requirements for the strength of the recruited monks, at least they had to have experienced blood and fire.

If they were talented, even new monks could naturally join and be trained.

If only hard power was considered, then in the current era when the Dharma King did not take action and the Dao Master did not show up, Xie Que could indeed crush the two Daos with his personal strength.

However, the Buddha Kingdom was just born, and its foundation was not comparable to that of the other party.

Therefore, Xie Que did not think that he could destroy the Chengping Dao in one wave.

On the contrary, he planned to fight to support the war, and only the tempering of blood and fire could make the Buddha Kingdom grow rapidly.

Now, although the Buddha Kingdom has only been established for four years, with the help of the spiritual energy released from the Buddha world, it is not an empty statement that the Buddha Kingdom will surpass the two Daos within a thousand years.

This is exactly the advantage of the Buddha Kingdom, and it is also the reason why Zhao Yuan dared to propose such a plan.

He believed that as long as the Buddha Kingdom was given enough time and opportunities,

it would definitely be above the two Daos, and even surpass the existence of the Wheel of the Past.

For those monks who chose to join the army, they also saw this opportunity.

They knew that as long as they could stand out in the Buddhist country, they would be able to obtain unprecedented opportunities and resources.

Therefore, they all joined the army in the hope of showing their talents and achieving great achievements on the road to the rise of the Buddhist country.

However, Xie Que knew clearly in his heart that time never waits for anyone, nor would it stop because of anyone's wishes.

Xiushan Zhenjun used his listening ability to obtain intelligence that those who had summoned the Tianwei Palace to descend within Chengping Dao had tasted the huge benefits brought by summoning visitors from the depths of the void.

The temptation of this benefit made them unable to resist.

They planned to continue to arrange the summoning ceremony and constantly attract those aggressive and destructive guys from the depths of the void.

In this situation, the Buddhist country also quickly launched a series of military merit exchange policies.

These policies were subdivided into A, B, C, D, etc., according to the number of heavenly stems, and the ten levels of military merit.

The rewards that can be exchanged for each level of military merit are also different, but without exception, these rewards are extremely precious and rare.

For those casual cultivators, many of these rewards are treasures they have never heard of or seen.

Zhao Yuan knows that such a reward system can not only motivate the cultivators of the Buddha Kingdom to be more brave in the war, but also attract more casual cultivators to join the Buddha Kingdom, providing a steady stream of new forces for the strength of the Buddha Kingdom.

By relying on the method of fighting to support fighting, the strength of the Buddha Kingdom will continue to increase, and their chances of winning against Cheng Pingdao will also increase accordingly.

For example, when the military merit reaches the fifth level of Wu Gong, it can be exchanged for a precious Yang Shen Dan.

The effect of this Yang Shen Dan is extraordinary. It can completely transform the cultivator's soul into a pure Yang body, and at the same time it can greatly accelerate the progress of the cultivator's mind realm Dharma body.

For those cultivators who have been stuck in the fourth realm of the soul for a long time, this Yang Shen Dan is undoubtedly a very tempting treasure. It may be the key for them to break through the bottleneck and move to a higher realm.

You know, there are countless cultivators who have reached the level of Jiujie Zhenren, but among them, there are less than a few who can become Yang Shen Zhenjun.

In the whole world, the True Lords are considered the top, so the preciousness of the Yangshen Pill can be seen.

After all, transforming the Yin soul into pure Yang is an extremely dangerous process. Once failed, it is almost death, so there are very few Nine Tribulations cultivators who can successfully break through.

Most of them also chose the more peaceful and safe worship of God.

Not only the Yangshen Pill, but also the items that can be exchanged for these military merits are almost all items that are of great help to cultivators of all realms.

From basic pills, talismans, formations, to high-end magic weapons, and even the righteous law and martial arts secrets, they can all be exchanged for military merits.

This undoubtedly provides great convenience for the cultivators, allowing them to quickly improve their cultivation and strength.

Even the super military merits above the first-class military merits can be exchanged for a time when the Buddha Emperor personally takes action to tailor a martial art for them!

This makes countless people feel crazy and rush to it.

They all know that the two Buddhas of heaven and earth and many top masters in the Buddha Kingdom are all martial arts tailored for them by the Buddha Emperor himself.

But it is difficult to achieve super military merit.

You need to kill a top-level venerable who can rival the gods to achieve it!

Such a requirement is undoubtedly very harsh, but many sects are also planning that if they can join forces or use some strategies, it may not be impossible.

Taking this opportunity to create a powerful person is not a bad idea!

Moreover, Xie Que is not stingy, and even dares to put the Bodhi Heart Certificate, which is known as "the world's first righteous way", into the military merit exchange list.

Of course, this also requires super military merit to be exchanged.

Only when rewards and punishments are appropriate can the various clans be motivated to perform in the war.

In order to ensure that each clan can go all out, the Buddhist country has formulated a complete reward and punishment mechanism.

Under such circumstances, each sect needs to send people to participate in the war and the army. All over the country, whether clans or civilians, have begun to prepare for war.

The entire Buddhist country has fallen into a special period of military control for a while, and no one can stay out of it.

If there are enough strong people in a sect who join the army, the Buddhist country can also give the relevant sects a policy of tax reduction and exemption. Such a reward is undoubtedly huge for the clan.

The burden of taxation is often a major problem for clan operations, but now, as long as you actively join the army, you can get the opportunity to reduce financial pressure.

This can not only help the clan develop better, but also make the distribution of clan resources more generous.

Even if the contribution is enough, the huge taxes on the clan can be exempted for thousands of years, which is a tempting reward.

Who doesn't want to fight for such long-term benefits for the clan, so that the clan can get rid of economic troubles and focus on cultivation and development?

Not only that, in the military merit exchange list, there is also an option to upgrade the clan's cave heaven and blessed land, which is undoubtedly an opportunity to greatly enhance the strength of the clan.

By accumulating military merits, the clan can obtain the qualification to upgrade the level of the cave heaven and blessed land, so that the environment within the clan can reach the concentration of spiritual energy that can only be found in the real secret realm of gods and Buddhas.

Such an improvement is a qualitative leap for the cultivation environment of the clan, which will greatly accelerate the cultivation speed and improve the cultivation of clan members.

It is for this reason that many clans that were not optimistic about this war have also joined the army.

They realized that participating in the war was not only a show of loyalty to the Buddha Kingdom, but also a golden opportunity for the development of the clan.

Various advance teams were also sent out to gather intelligence.

Due to the tacit approval of the three Dharma Kings, the Wheel of Rotation has basically become an empty shell.

In the past few years, the Zen Sect, which was originally extremely weak, has also begun to take the opportunity to develop.

The old Zen monks who have been hiding for many years have also appeared one after another, wanting to revive the glory of Zen.

Therefore, the most difficult thing on the entire Western Continent is the Zen force.

Chengping Dao is different. Basically, only the Taoist temples selected by Tai Su Dao Zun have entered the Buddha Kingdom.

The rest of the small groups continue to operate, but it is also because of the loss of contact with the other two Dao Zun, coupled with the support of the two forces outside the void, the Xinghe Palace and the Tianwei Palace, that the power of the Advent Sect has begun to grow wildly.

In order to better integrate into those void forces, the Advent Sect has already fully revealed the basic situation and situation of the entire world.

It is for this reason that the "Wu Yuan Guard" established for the Wheel of Revolving Dao has integrated and practiced a martial formation specifically for countering the Zen method.

The martial formation formed by the vast blood and energy not only enables the soldiers to ignore the Buddhist method of salvation, but also can kill the enemy's powerful in a joint attack across a large realm!

The practice of the "Wu Bing Wei" focuses on countering those guys from the void.

The fifth year of Chan Wu, the first month.

The Tianfei Temple from Chengping Dao, supported by Zhao Yuan, built thirty-six void tower ships and more than three thousand small warships with the ancient Tianyuan wood that is thousands of miles high.

These void warships built with the ancient Tianyuan wood are expensive and the materials are rare and hard to find.

If Xie Que had not mastered the method of void creation and left the precious materials needed in the Buddha Kingdom in advance, I am afraid that it would be difficult for a good cook to cook without rice.

And with the blessing of the formation diagram, coupled with the characteristics of the ancient Tianyuan wood, this fleet can also shuttle through the void at will.

It also relies on the jump space between the void layers to carry out ultra-long-distance navigation.

In almost an hour, this huge void fleet can cross the entire Qiongyu Sea.

Moreover, there are more than ten venerables in each void building ship.

There are also three or more true monarchs in the other small warships.

As for the number of real martial saints, it is countless!

Under this, Xie Que separated a trace of thought in the Zen Martial Hall and held a grand military parade.

Countless monks all wore golden armor with the characteristics of the times, knelt on one knee to the Buddha Emperor to show their departure.

The demon kings and demons who surrendered to the Buddha Kingdom also formed a demon army. Among them, the aura was chaotic and they were of different races, but their strength should not be underestimated.

The treatment given to these demon soldiers by the Buddha Kingdom was the same as that of human monks.

The demons were also tempted by the elixirs exchanged for military merits, and they could not help but join the army.

In the first month of the fifth year of Chanwu, Wu Yuanwei drove a void ship and 800 void warships to the west.

Zhao Yuan did not want to be attacked from both sides, so he delayed the day of the war against Chengping Dao in the east.

The remaining forces of the Lunzhuan Dao in the Western Continent, seeing that the Buddha Kingdom seemed to be coming in full force, also moved to the vicinity of Maha City.

They knew that this was an agreement between the Buddha Kingdom and the Lunzhuan Dao.

Those among them who wanted to join the Buddha Kingdom had already gone there,

Those who remain now are just unwilling to be governed anymore.

After all, the former Wheel of Rebirth had a very loose control over its subordinate forces. For example, the Secret Sect and the Perfect Teaching all had a high degree of autonomy.

But the Zen forces were different. They firmly believed that the Buddha Kingdom was another Wheel of Rebirth.

The heresy about the faith of the Wheel of Rebirth Saint King is still circulating among them.

From this point of view alone, the Zen sect would never abandon its own faith and join the Buddha Kingdom.

After all, in the past hundreds of thousands of years, they had not shown any signs of extinction despite being constantly suppressed by the Wheel of Rebirth.

Now that the Wheel of Rebirth is declining, they certainly will not submit to the new Buddha Kingdom.

Therefore, those Zen sects have begun to unite, just like hundreds of thousands of years ago, forming a coalition to resist the invasion of the Buddha Kingdom.

In the eyes of Xiushan Zhenjun, the remaining forces of the Zen sect are just some products of the old times.

There is no point in their stubborn resistance.

Some of the powerful ones who can be shown off are just a few big cats and small cats in front of the current Buddha Kingdom.

It is difficult to find even one who can resist the three totem gods.

And their masters, the gods and Buddhas, have also entered the depths of the void to seek opportunities.

Faith can't get any response, so what's the point of faith?

Against this background, Wu Yuanwei drove nearly half of the void warships and rushed straight to the Zen base camp.

It took only fifteen days to conquer the sixteen sects in the Zen Alliance.

And it caused the death of more than ten venerables and more than three hundred true monarchs on the Zen side, and countless real people.

But the Buddha Kingdom, relying on rich resources and formations and magic weapons, only sacrificed two or three hundred real people and three real monarchs.

Upon hearing this battle, the Zen Sect quickly tightened the loose alliance and prepared for the final decisive battle in a small world "Western Buddha Realm".

But what they didn't expect was that three of the sects had already been instigated by the Buddha Kingdom.

Xiushan Zhenjun gave them an offer that they couldn't refuse, that is, if they entered the Buddha Kingdom, they would be given an island with the same concentration of spiritual energy as Maha City.

Under such temptation, the three Zen sects used formation diagrams to deceive the heavens, opened the gate of the Western Buddha Realm, and directly welcomed a void building ship and more than 300 void warships into it.

The Zen resistance alliance collapsed in an instant, leaving only the last spark escaping.

However, Xiushan Zhenjun, the commander-in-chief of this war, didn't expect that among the Zen masters who escaped,

there was actually one who, because of the destruction of his sect, had fallen from Buddha nature to demon nature, sneaked into the Buddha Kingdom and began to massacre, causing the deaths of nearly 300,000 people.

Fortunately, Zhao Yuan's eyes of the emperor discovered it in time and killed the master who fell into the devil's way.

After this battle, the entire West, except for Maha City and the Western Desert, was almost all under the rule of the Buddha Kingdom. (End of this chapter)
