Chapter 131: Chapter 94: Yu Xuan Heavenly Elder, Ninth Stage Huge Heavenly Venerate!_3
However, now that it had happened, he could not help but feel puzzled.
Is it possible that I was mistaken?
After a long period of thought, Old Man Jade Xuan fell into doubt.
Theoretically, the higher the cultivation level, the less likely one would sense things without cause.
However, in reality, one cannot definitively conclude, as even humans make mistakes.
Even a Great Cultivator at the Ninth Stage could not always avoid it.
Forget it, no more thinking.
It must be because of the anxiety these past few days.
Having thought this far, Old Man Jade Xuan decided to stop thinking.
Seeing that most people had arrived, he turned his gaze to the crowd and said:
"Alright, fellow Daoists."
"Since most of us have arrived, let us proceed directly to the main topic."
"We are all ears, venerable one." As soon as they heard these words, everyone ceremoniously bowed to Old Man Jade Xuan.
No one would disrespect a powerful person, let alone a figure like Old Man Jade Xuan who had achieved masterful accomplishment through seclusion.
"Thank you, fellow Daoists. Let’s cut to the chase."
Seeing the audience had no objection, Old Man Jade Xuan immediately nodded his head and then said:
"Fellow Daoists, as you must all be aware, a few days ago..."
"In one of the four halls of Rebirth Hall, the Emperor Song Hall, a new True King was added."
"The power of Rebirth Hall has once again expanded slightly, which has brought about some unfavorable influences on us."
"Do any of you fellow Daoists have any good ideas to counter this?"
Ambiguity lay in Old Man Jade Xuan’s question, nevertheless, it was undeniably about the matter of ’Earth Bodhisattva’ in Rebirth Hall.
At these words, the audience fell into silence.
They had all heard of the three great Dharma Aspects that had arisen in Immortal Mountain not long ago accompanied by the appearance of the real phoenix.
But they really didn’t know what to make of it.
Everyone knew that this was not the issue Old Man Jade Xuan was concerned about.
Rather, he was primarily focused on the current battlefield against Demon Gate.
On the battlefield against Rebirth Hall, the Righteous Path held only a slight advantage.
This was especially true for elite forces.
On the surface, the Righteous Path had two Heavenly Venerates of the Ninth Stage from Taiyi Sect, which was one more than Rebirth Hall.
However, the reality was that ...
Even if the two Heavenly Venerates of this side joined forces, they still couldn’t do anything to Demon Master Yin Tianzi on the enemy side!
Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been this lengthy stalemate between Dao and Demon!
Although, it is true that most people didn’t know what to say.
But among the nearly ten thousand people present, there were always those who dared to express their opinions.
Before the crowd had fallen silent for a few seconds, someone had already stood up.
It was a man dressed in a Daoist robe and without a mask.
Next moment, the man deposited his fist in his palm and said to Old Man Jade Xuan:
"Venerable One, in my opinion, the addition of the ’True King’ just boosted their power."
"It will not cause us much damage, after all, to make a difference, the ’True King’ needs time."
"I believe, in our battle with Demon Master Yin Tianzi..."
"The most crucial individuals are still those high-ranking four Hall Masters of Rebirth Hall."
"Among them, we have witnessed the strength and depth of Yanluo, Meng Po, and Reincarnation King."
"However, we have no idea about the powers of the former Earth Bodhisattva, now Emperor Song, the current Hall Master of Emperor Song Hall."
"I think, if we want to win this battle with the Demon Path, it is crucially important to understand the abilities of Emperor Song."
"Hmm, good point, thank you young Daoist."
Upon hearing the man’s words, Old Man Jade Xuan nodded. What the man had said was actually what he really wanted to know.
Following this, Old Man Jade Xuan turned his gaze to the Daoist Master of Fire, Li Huo, and asked:
"Li Huo, I heard that you met Emperor Song at the Hundred Sects Conference. What’s your opinion of him?"
Seeing Old Man Jade Xuan pose the question to him, Daoist Master Li Huo hastily rose to his feet, gave a salute, then said:
"To answer the Grand Elder..."
"At the Hundred Sects Conference, I did indeed catch a glimpse of Emperor Song."
"If you ask what impression he made upon me, all I can say is..."
"He was as magnificent as the legends made him out to be."
"If I were to face him in combat, I would undoubtedly perish."
The sentence spoken by Daoist Master Li Huo was full of despair.
However, this was also something he couldn’t avoid.
Up to now, he still vividly remembers his desperate condition right before the Great Buddha, Fa San, of Buddhism breathed his last.
That was even after he managed to respond slightly faster.
If the Great Buddha Fa San had been slower by a fraction, most likely, Fa San would be non-existent by now!
Daoist Master Li Huo couldn’t help but give a bitter smile at this.
It could be said that the person he least wished to confront right now was Emperor Song of Rebirth Hall.
Even so, the Daoist Master Li Huo knew the truth.
As long as he remained in Taiyi Sect, he would inevitably have to face Emperor Song.
Taiyi Sect and Rebirth Hall had always been mortal enemies!
Furthermore, the two factions were currently fiercely battling on the Endless Sea battlefield.
If two people did meet, they would undoubtedly find themselves on the battlefield, clashing weapons!
Beyond this, there was no other possibility!
"Emperor Song is very strong?"
"That’s indeed a problem."
Hearing Daoist Master Li Huo’s words, Old Man Jade Xuan was first taken aback, then nodded in agreement.
