As the almighty experts arrived, the clan members had already hastily retreated.
Since Zhao Guang told them to be careful, they simply withdrew far away, leaving this place to the experts.
Li Wei floated in the air.
In the cloudy sky, over a hundred people from the three factions could be seen.
The three Body Integration realm cultivators exchanged a glance in the clouds, all showing some vigilance in their eyes.
Immediately after, Zhao Guang made the first move.
He merely extended a single finger, and the Spiritual power of heaven and earth gathered.
The unadorned Spiritual power coalesced into a thread, blasting from afar toward the white lotus of the Dusheng Nunnery.
But despite this method of channeling Spiritual power being so simple that even Foundation Establishment cultivators could use it, Li Wei wouldn't dare to take this almighty expert's single finger strike head-on.
"As expected, upon reaching their realm, not only must they guard against the enemy, but they must also guard against each other.
Having lived for so long and possessing numerous methods, they all fear that malicious intent might arise among them, leading them to 'eat' each other."
In truth, the clan was the same now; the experts among the clansmen rarely made a move.
Li Xinnian, the new clan head, had hidden his strength for hundreds of years and still didn't reveal his true depths.
Li Yunlin, even on the battlefield, only fought casually.
At their realm, when it truly came time to get serious, it would definitely be a killing blow.
No wonder people in the world always said that anyone who had seen an almighty expert use their trump card was dead.
Whether they died or not was unknown, but if one side survived and broadcasted the opponent's abilities to the world, that would also be quite a disgusting matter.
Following Zhao Guang's move, the other two followed suit.
The Dusheng Nunnery's Grotto-Heaven activated its grand array, and a Bodhisattva statue appeared on the lotus to block the three from breaking the array.
Li Wei could tell that Nun Dairou was relying on the Spiritual power of the Dusheng Nunnery's nuns and the profound foundations accumulated by the Dusheng Nunnery since ancient times to engage in a battle with the three Body Integration experts.
Perfected Qinghe of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion was a man dressed in a white robe and wearing a smiling mask. His long hair was flowing, and his figure was slender and tall.
The hand he extended had fair skin and long, slender fingers, showing that he looked young and paid attention to his appearance.
Although his technique was direct, it faintly harbored the conceptual intent of the Array Dao and carried the pill fragrance of Li Yaoqing when she refined pills.
It was evident that he was an expert in both the Array Formation Dao and the Pill Dao.
As for Wenren Jiuyue of the Wenren Immortal Clan, he was a beautiful man, even a few fractions more handsome than Li Chang'an.
This person dressed luxuriously; even the black robe on his body emanated the aura of a supreme-grade Dharma Treasure, and even the hairpin on his head was a supreme-grade Dharma Treasure.
His Spiritual power was scorching hot, and among the three present, he was the only expert to reveal a hint of "fire" attribute Dao intent.
"Where has my Dusheng Nunnery offended you three Daoist friends? Why must you press us so relentlessly?"
Above the Bodhisattva statue, Nun Dairou's voice remained calm, yet her words were extremely cold.
"Could it be that you truly want to force me to abandon the Dusheng Nunnery? Who in this world doesn't have something they care about?"
This was a threat. No one wanted to enrage a Body Integration expert hiding in the shadows, not even a Mahayana realm expert!
"Hahaha!"
Zhao Guang laughed loudly.
"I, Zhao Guang, have killed more than just one or two Body Integration experts. If I want to deal with you, I will deal with you.
If you have the capability, escape! Let me see how you plan to deal with our three factions!"
"..." Perfected Qinghe didn't say a word, merely turning his head to stare fixedly at Zhao Guang.
"Under the hands of the three of us, you still think you can escape?"
Wenren Jiuyue expended even more Spiritual power and shot a faint glare at Zhao Guang.
Observing this, Li Wei rested his forehead against his hand. "I didn't expect that even at your realm, you guys would be so... plain and simple."
Zhao Guang was truly despicable; he might actually want Nun Dairou to escape. Regardless, he had no attachments or cares.
If Wu Neng died, he would probably be thrilled that he could take the top position.
Perfected Qinghe's thoughts were unknown, looking as if he didn't care either way.
Wenren Jiuyue was different. Not all clans were as ruthless and unfeeling as the Yun Clan.
.......
"Vile spawn!"
In the Dusheng Nunnery, Nun Dairou sat cross-legged in the Buddhist pagoda.
Her usual gentle demeanor, which remained unchanged even if a mountain collapsed before her when facing Li Kuanghua, had morphed into a face full of anger.
At this moment, throughout the entire Dusheng Nunnery, nuns chanted Buddhist mantras, all Buddha statues emitted Buddhist light, and Buddhist runes floated like tadpoles in the sky above the Grotto-Heaven.
This was the faith and Spiritual power accumulated by generations of monks since the Dusheng Nunnery's existence.
Otherwise, with three Body Integration almighty experts taking action, no matter how many eras the Grotto-Heaven had existed, it would be destroyed by them.
"How could so many Body Integration experts come? How could this be?"
The nun muttered. Yun Hongcai's warning had only just passed, and she had long prepared a countermeasure.
A single Body Integration cultivator could do nothing to her.
As for Mahayana realm experts, they were either hiding out of fear of being plotted against by others, or waiting to drag the Great Emperor off his throne; they wouldn't come looking for trouble with her at all.
With the underlying foundation of the Dusheng Nunnery's Grotto-Heaven, she was confident she could repel even a Dao Integration realm expert.
But despite all her calculations, she never anticipated that so many Body Integration cultivators would arrive!
"Shadowfell Prefecture is a fiercely contested land between the Wu tribe and the dynasty.
I had chosen this location ingeniously. With three Body Integration experts coming, the Wu tribe will definitely be on high alert.
How does the Azure Cloud Li Clan have the capability to make these three come?"
Confusion crawled all over her heart. But despite all her calculations, she probably never calculated that the Li Clan had an Ancestral Space, and an elusive Ancestor who could appear right beside his descendants.
The Azure Cloud Li Clan had also employed an open scheme, forcing the dynasty to attach importance to Fei Heng.
But at this moment, it was too late for Nun Dairou to think too much.
Footsteps sounded outside the Buddhist pagoda, and the two Dharma Masters arrived.
Nun Dairou said in a deep voice, "With three Body Integration experts here, our Dusheng Nunnery won't be able to hold out for long.
I have already warned you two. I expect that the ones who managed to bring them here are none other than the Li Clan playing tricks."
"We hold Crown Prince Fei Heng and Li Kuanghua of the Li family in our hands."
Bargaining chips!
Dharma Master Hongzhen and Dharma Master Hongdan exchanged a glance. They hadn't expected things to escalate to this point.
However, the two were fearless. Even in this situation, they had sufficient countermeasures.
Whether they handed over Fei Heng and Li Kuanghua or used their lives as threats, they could secure a path of survival.
Dharma Master Hongzhen stepped forward, still wearing a gentle expression, and smiled.
"Nun, do not worry. Our Buddha anticipated this long ago and has a foolproof plan.
Crown Prince Fei Heng has converted to Buddhism and is immersed in Buddhist Dharma.
Dharma Master Hongkuang has long borrowed our Buddhist Spiritual power to cast Bodhisattva statues all around.
Now that she has transformed into a Bodhisattva, the moment she breaks through, she will be our junior sister."
"Even if we send the two of them out, they are still people of our Buddhist sect."
