Journey to the West: The Demon Emperor

Chapter 266 Pangu Banner and Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree
At this moment, Li Yang's eyes penetrated the endless time and space, looking at the "Twenty-Four Heavens" that were rolling towards the "Pangu Palace", and subconsciously narrowed their eyes slightly.

The "Xuan Universe" that he opened up was also based on the twelve "Dinghai Pearls" in its initial form, and then it continued to develop and grow to its current state.

It can be said that if there were no fragments of the "Jade Disc of Creation", the treasure that gave birth to the "Way of Heaven", Li Yang would not be able to open up the "Xuan Universe" at all, and at most it would only be a weakened version of the "Twelve Heavens".

Now, although Li Yang's "Xuan Universe" and the "Twenty-Four Heavens" opened up by the ancient Buddha Dipankara have already had essential differences.

But after all, they can be considered to have the same origin.

If the "Twenty-Four Heavens" could be swallowed and digested, it would bring unimaginable benefits to the "Xuan Universe".

It can even cause a qualitative change in the origin of the "Xuan Universe" to a certain extent.

After all, the "Xuan Universe" opened up by twelve "Dinghai Pearls" and the "Xuan Universe" opened up by collecting thirty-six "Dinghai Pearls" are two completely different concepts.

In fact, Li Yang had had similar thoughts in his mind before.

However, since Randang had the support of the towering Buddhist tree and had been practicing in the sacred place of Lingshan in Xiniu Hezhou, Li Yang had no chance to attack him.

At this moment, in order to seize the "Pangu Temple" of the Witch Clan, Randeng personally took action and directly sacrificed the "Twenty-Four Heavens", giving Li Yang a chance to get what he wanted.

However, although he had some ideas about seizing the "Twenty-Four Heavens", this was obviously not the best time to take action.

Both past and present Buddhas of Buddhism have met their end. It is impossible for the Taoist sect to just sit and watch the "Pangu Temple" fall into the hands of Buddhism.

"Humph!!!"

Sure enough, when he saw that the "Pan Gu Palace" was slowly losing the upper hand and was suppressed by the "Twenty-Four Heavens" summoned by Randang, Guangchengzi on the other side could no longer sit still.

"call out!!!"

The next second, a chaotic sword energy that seemed to split the sky and the earth suddenly penetrated the void and stabbed directly at the "Twenty-Four Heavens" that were entangled with the "Pangu Palace".

Because the "Twenty-Four Heavenly Gods" and the "Pangu Palace" were in a stalemate and could not dodge in time, they could only take the sword head-on.

With just one sword strike, the formation of the "Twenty-Four Heavenly Beings" was broken.

If Randeng had not withdrawn his suppression of the "Pangu Palace" in time and protected himself with all his strength, the heavens would have been shattered by that sword.

Li Yang was not at all surprised that this sword was so powerful.

This is because the source of that chaotic sword energy was the "Pangu Banner", one of the "Three Treasures of Creation" along with the "Chaos Bell".

As the one who controls the "Chaos Bell", Li Yang is of course most aware of the terrifying power of the innate treasure, not to mention that the "Pangu Banner" is the most powerful one among the "Three Treasures of Creation".

The chaotic sword energy it emits is unparalleled in killing power. I am afraid that only the complete "Zhu Xian Sword Formation" can be compared with it.

This treasure was once in the possession of Hongjun Daozu, and played a great role in his battle with the Demon Ancestor Luohou.

Later, when he gave his third sermon in the "Purple Sky Palace", he bestowed the "Pangu Banner" on Yuanshi Tianzun.

Before Yuanshi Tianzun was confined to his homeland and left the primitive world for the chaos, it was bestowed by Yuanshi Tianzun and handed over to Guangchengzi, becoming the foundation of Taoism.

It was precisely because he was in control of the "Pangu Banner" that Guangchengzi was able to hold up the banner of the Chan sect in front of Buddhism and the Heavenly Court.

Similar to this is another of the “Three Treasures of Creation” in the hands of Master Xuandu – the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram.

It is precisely because of these two innate treasures that the Taoist sect can still maintain its transcendent status. Otherwise, relying solely on the two quasi-saints, Guangchengzi and Xuandu the Great Master, they would have been unable to resist the impact of Buddhism and the Heavenly Court and would not have been able to maintain the independence of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

After all, whether in heaven or Buddhism, the number of quasi-saints exceeds that of Taoism.

At this moment, seeing that the Buddhist sect had no martial ethics and wanted to use their numbers to bully the few, Guangchengzi was certainly unwilling to do so and directly took out his most powerful weapon - the Pangu Banner.

Afterwards, Guangchengzi of the Chanjiao sect used the "Pangu Banner" in his hand to emit a series of chaotic sword energy with unparalleled killing power, which directly put the two Buddhas, Sakyamuni and Randang, at a disadvantage.

"Uh-huh!!!"

Faced with such a situation, the Buddhists no longer held back.

"Pangu Palace", as the treasure transformed from Pangu's heart, is not much less powerful than the "Three Treasures of Creation".

Such a precious treasure, in the hands of the Witch Clan, would be a waste of talent.

If it falls into the hands of Buddhism, even if Taoism has two innate treasures, it will no longer be able to suppress Buddhism as it does now.

It is for this reason that the Buddhist sect has tried its best to take possession of the "Pangu Temple" this time.

In an instant, a brilliant golden light emerged from the void and brushed straight towards the chaotic sword energy that was constantly emerging.

Under this dazzling golden light, the chaotic sword energy that was originally incomparable in killing power was actually directly moved in the direction of its advance, colliding with other chaotic sword energies and canceling each other out.

As the golden light continued to sway, the lethality of the chaotic sword energy emitted by the "Pangu Banner" was immediately greatly reduced.

Seeing such a strange situation, Li Yang couldn't help but focus his eyes on the "Eye of Peering" and, regardless of the slight pain in his eyes, looked towards the ball of light shrouded in golden light.

Even though Li Yang was trying his best, he still couldn't see the whole picture, but he could vaguely see that what was surrounded by golden light seemed to be a tree branch.

At this moment, Li Yang had already guessed the origin of the tree branch.

The Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree is a treasure of enlightenment that was refined by the Bodhisattva Cundi using his own body.

As a saint, the power of his essence is naturally beyond doubt.

With the nurturing of the endless years by the Saint Cundi, the "Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree" has already grown to an unknowable realm.

Although it was not being driven by the Saint Zhunti himself at this moment, it was enough to temporarily resist the attack of the "Pangu Banner".

After all, the one who was controlling the "Pangu Banner" at this moment was not Yuanshi Tianzun.

At this time, the one who was controlling the "Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree" to resist the "Pan Gu Banner" in Guangchengzi's hand was none other than Maitreya, the future Buddha among the "Three Buddhas of the Past, Present and Future" in Buddhism.

Compared with Sakyamuni and Dipankara, the two Buddhas who became monks late in life, Maitreya is the most loyal disciple of Buddhism.

Maitreya is the disciple taught by the two Buddhist saints. It is for this reason that the two Buddhist saints handed over the "Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree", the most precious treasure of Buddhism, to him before leaving.

At this moment, for the future of Buddhism and for the precious treasure of "Pangu Temple", Maitreya did not hesitate to bring the "Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree" with him to the scene in person.

Seeing that Guangchengzi and the "Pangu Banner" were blocked by Maitreya with the "Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree", Sakyamuni and Randang did not miss this opportunity. They hurriedly controlled the "Zhuxian Formation Diagram" and the "Twenty-Four Heavens" to press towards the "Pangu Palace", wanting to suppress it together with the witch clan in the palace.
