Journey to the West: The Demon Emperor

Chapter 298 Selecting the Target
After returning to the "Star Realm", Li Yang ordered Bai Ze to keep an eye on the actions of several saint sects, then dispersed his incarnation and returned to his original body.

After receiving Li Yang's order, Bai Ze did not dare to delay and started to act immediately.

It has to be said that the demon race really has a unique advantage in some things.

After all, sometimes an intelligent little bug in the soil, or an ordinary grass, can become a channel for the demons to collect information.

Although no important confidential information can be obtained through this method, the general trends of various saint sects can be understood.

Just like before, whenever Bai Ze got any information, he would immediately report it to Li Yang.

What surprised Li Yang was that neither the Chan Sect nor the Buddhist Sect had taken any major action.

Even the Jiejiao Sect is only constantly guiding its reincarnated disciples back to the "Jin'ao Island".

As for other major operations, there were none either.

The Human Religion currently has only two big bosses, Taishang Laozi and Xuandu Grand Master, neither of whom can be monitored through these means.

Therefore, the demon clan did not find any information about human religion.

However, according to Li Yang's guess, Taishang Laozi should not have made a choice yet.

Otherwise, the Chan sect would not be as peaceful as it is now.

Not to mention that Lao Tzu practiced the "Tao of Non-action", advocated governing by inaction and letting nature take its course, and would never be the first to act.

Now, the Six Saints are not only worried about the attitude of Hongjun Daozu after his return, but they are also wary of each other. They dare not be the first to stand out, for fear of being jointly targeted.

However, Li Yang knew that this situation could not last long.

After all, they always have to make a choice, Hongjun and "Heavenly Way", they always have to make a choice.

And this period of their hesitation was also Li Yang's last chance to pull them into his camp.

Li Yang, who knew this very well, immediately began to think about the target he should contact first.

After pondering for a while, Li Yang chose "Yuanshi Tianzun" as his first target to contact.

The reason why Li Yang chose Yuanshi Tianzun instead of Nuwa, who seemed to have the closest relationship with him, or Tongtian Jiaozhu, who obviously had the most strained relationship with Hongjun Daozu, was entirely based on the "Tao" practiced by the Six Saints as the main deciding factor.

Among the Six Saints, the most unfathomable and the one that Li Yang fears the most is, of course, Taishang Laozi.

As the "chief of the Three Pure Ones" and "first disciple of Taoism", Taishang adheres to the principle of governing by inaction and makes his moves without leaving any trace.

Li Yang was not sure about persuading Tai Shang, so he naturally would not contact him first.

As for the two saints of Buddhism, given the grudges between Liyang and Buddhism and the treasures in their hands, I am afraid that they will directly "bully the weak with the strong".

This kind of thing is something that the two saints of Buddhism can do.

Master Tongtian is now concentrating on gathering his former disciples, and the waters around "Jin'ao Island" have already been blocked.

Except for the disciples of Jiejiao, it is difficult for others to approach him.

As for the goddess Nuwa, the last time I saw her in the "Wuhuang Palace", it was obvious that she had not made up her mind completely.

If Li Yang came to the door at this time, it would be difficult to gain anything.

However, although everyone has their own reasons for not looking for them, the reason for deciding to let Li Yang find Yuanshi Tianzun first is actually the "Tao" that Yuanshi Tianzun follows.

Tai Shang’s way is “non-action”, and Tong Tian Jiao Zhu’s way is “cutting the sky”.

The way of Nuwa is "creation", and the way of the two Western saints is to promote "Buddhism".

The Tao of Yuanshi Tianzun is "obeying Heaven".

This can be seen from the name of the sect he founded, "Chan" - explaining the Way of Heaven.

This is also the fundamental reason why the "Chanjiao" and the "Jiejiao" are so confrontational, and they are willing to fight each other regardless of the brotherhood between Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu. The "Battle of the Gods" is not mainly a battle of wills or interests, but a battle of beliefs.

It is a battle between "believing in the Way of Heaven" and "the Way of Cutting off Heaven".

When one reaches the level of a saint, persistence in one's own "Tao" has become more important than anything else.

Therefore, even though Yuanshi Tianzun was the second disciple of Hongjun Daozu, he not only received teachings from Hongjun, but also the innate treasure "Pangu Banner".

But what Hongjun did was in direct opposition to the "Tao" followed by Yuanshi Tianzun.

It is for this reason that Li Yang decided to try to contact Yuanshi Tianzun first.

If unsuccessful, Li Yang will immediately go to the West to look for the Two Saints of the West.

After all, for the two saints in the West, promoting Buddhism is extremely important.

And if the world was refined and devoured by Hongjun, Buddhism would have no place to survive, and naturally there would be no such thing as a glorious Buddhism.

Compared with several other saints, the two saints of the West obviously attach more importance to the sects they passed down.

Therefore, the Two Saints of the West were Li Yang's second choice.

………………

"Uh-huh!!!"

After making the decision, Li Yang began to think about how he should go to meet Yuanshi Tianzun.

Before confirming Yuanshi Tianzun's true thoughts, Li Yang would certainly not choose to contact him in his true form.

As for ordinary incarnations, if there were no fragments of the "Jade Disc of Creation" to cover them up, Yuanshi Tianzun would certainly discover the clues.

The "Jade Butterfly of Creation" is so important that Li Yang will certainly not let it escape from his control easily.

Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Li Yang decided to condense a special "mirror body" and go to meet Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Boom!!!"

In the mysterious universe, as Li Yang's mind moved, a female demon was released from suppression by Li Yang.

This female demon was sent by the Demon Ancestor Rāhu to deliver a message to Li Yang.

After receiving the news from Luohou, Li Yang has been running around and has no time to deal with her.

Now, Li Yang just had an idea and prepared to use it as the "raw material" to refine a special "mirror body".

"Sir, have mercy!!!"

As the female demon was released by Li Yang, after meeting Li Yang's extremely cold eyes, a sense of foreboding suddenly emerged in her heart.

The female demon was one of the rare "Daluo-level" strongmen in the demon clan. She had devoured countless practitioners and of course knew what this look meant.

Without any hesitation, the female demon immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, constantly showing Li Yang her extremely charming and perfect body without a single flaw.

The Heavenly Demon is a special creature specially created by the Demon Ancestor Rāhu to tempt sentient beings and prevent them from practicing.

In the concept of the devil, there is no concept of shame at all.

As long as she can survive, she is willing to give everything to Li Yang at any time.

The female demon was well aware of the gap between herself and Li Yang.

Therefore, she had no intention of resisting at all.

Unfortunately, Li Yang would never be obsessed with the "illusion" before him.
