#809 - Evil beast Buddha, dare to disturb our Tang Dynasty, you should be beheaded
The soldiers of the Great Tang Dynasty were enduring a very arduous assault from the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu.
On the city tower, Emperor Tang watched the ten million strong army, and couldn't help but furrow his brow.
"This Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu has borrowed troops from other countries again, hmph!"
"And they've mixed in so many reincarnated powerhouses, do they really think We can't see it?"
Thinking of these reincarnated powerhouses mixed within the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu, Emperor Tang felt a headache.
Although they claimed to have attained enlightenment, it was obvious at a glance that they weren't ordinary people; their words and actions were not those of common men.
Besides, the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu hadn't had many instances of enlightenment in a thousand years, but now, whenever they were at a disadvantage, they suddenly had waves of enlightenment. How could there be so many coincidences?
In fact, the Heavenly Court had asked if he wanted to use some soul-seizing powerhouses, and they could arrange for a batch of criminals from the Ninth Layer of the Heavenly Prison to atone for their crimes.
However, knowing the cruelty of soul-seizing, Emperor Tang refused.
Emperor Tang wasn't being soft-hearted either; he naturally had his own considerations.
Just as Chu Hao had said before, the human race should strive for self-improvement. If the Great Tang were to imitate the barbarian Buddhist Kingdom, disregarding life and destroying souls to achieve victory, what would happen after this one battle?
At this moment, on the battlefield outside Fengxue City, a formation led by a group of soul-seized Buddhist soldiers was advancing towards Fengxue City.
Even though there were many powerhouses in the Great Tang, they couldn't withstand the onslaught of the soul-seized Buddhist soldiers, each of whom was delivering a dimensional strike, often at the Golden Core stage, and even including a large number of Great Ascension stage powerhouses!
If it weren't for the fact that mortal bodies couldn't be improved too much at once, Fengxue City would probably be facing piles of celestials today.
Driven forward by the group of soul-seized Buddhist soldiers, who also formed a large formation with great coordination, absorbing all stray arrows,
the soldiers of the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu only needed to hide behind them and follow.
They couldn't be more pleased at this moment.
"With the blessings of the Buddha and Bodhisattvas, Fengxue City is bound to lose today. Once Fengxue City falls, the gates of the Great Tang will be breached!"
"Hahahaha, the Great Tang is destined to fall into the hands of our Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu, no one can stop us!"
"Only believers in Buddhism deserve to live. According to the Buddhist scriptures, the faithless Great Tang are all empty-hearted walking corpses. Charge! Kill these human scarecrows!"
The army of the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu had already engaged in close combat with the soldiers of the Great Tang.
To deal with the group of soul-seized Buddhist soldiers, many powerhouses from the Great Tang also came to the front line without any hesitation.
Teachers, farmers practicing martial arts, women wielding kitchen knives, butchers wielding butcher knives...
Yuchi Gong, resurrected from the dead, Li Jing, the military god of the Great Tang, Qin Shubao, the iron-blooded general...
The soldiers and civilians of the Great Tang were originally one, and on the battlefield, there was no distinction between them.
For the sake of their homes behind them, no one ever chose to retreat, and no one was afraid.
In the close combat, the soldiers of the Great Tang also felt enormous pressure.
A Chinese Taoist at the ninety-ninth level of tribulation looked at the dozens of tribulation powerhouses among the soul-seized Buddhist soldiers, who had been promoted at some unknown time and hadn't even undergone tribulation, and couldn't help but twitch his mouth and curse:
"These Western Heavens really don't treat people as people, actually using so many powerhouses to seize bodies! Beasts!"
"Those dozens of original bodies were at least at the Golden Core realm, right? They probably spent their entire lives cultivating Buddhist techniques that accommodate soul-seizing."
"On one side are beasts who don't treat people as people, and on the other are people who treat themselves as beasts. How rotten is this Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu?"
However, even though the Chinese Taoist was cursing, he didn't dare to relax at all when dealing with them.
At this moment, he was fighting with the dozens of Buddhist soldiers who were already at the tribulation stage after being soul-seized. Obviously, the Chinese Taoist wasn't having an easy time.
If these were dozens of tribulation powerhouses from the human world, the Chinese Taoist could pin them to the ground and beat them mercilessly,
but these dozens of tribulation powerhouses were all Buddhas from the Western Heavens who had been soul-seized. They possessed Buddhist secret techniques that didn't belong to the mortal world,
and also had Buddhist artifacts such as fleshly bodies of Buddhas and relics, truly demonstrating a good ability to play with corpses.
Even though the Chinese Taoist was at the ninety-ninth level of tribulation, it wasn't easy for him to fight against these powerhouses whose original bodies were all at the level of gods, and he soon fell into a disadvantage.
He even suffered several painful blows from Buddhist bone relics, causing the Chinese Taoist to retreat repeatedly, his face pale.
Not only was the Chinese Taoist at a disadvantage, but the entire Great Tang camp was also in a disadvantageous position.
Although Yuchi Gong was resurrected from the dead, he fought fearlessly, single-handedly holding off several soul-seized Buddhist soldiers of equal cultivation.
Even so, Yuchi Gong was beaten black and blue, with hardly any good flesh left.
"Damn it, these beasts, shameless bastards, if you have the ability, don't use such despicable methods as soul-seizing!"
"When I enter the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu, the first thing I'll do is smash your temples, damn it, it's everyone's responsibility to eliminate feudal superstition!"
The group of soul-seized powerhouses from the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu didn't feel any shame for bullying the weak; instead, they coldly mocked.
"How is it? Our Western Heavens are well-disciplined. How can your Great Tang learn this? Believers are meant to be controlled, not worshipped. Only we can be worshipped, understand?"
"These good men and women all know to take the Buddha as the foundation and promote Buddhism. They voluntarily sacrifice their lives to exchange for peace in the world. Excellent, excellent, this is the true Dharma."
"Amitabha, although their bodies and souls are destroyed, it is their honor to be able to contribute to the Western Heavens."
"These mortal believers are naturally replaced batch after batch. Why bother with your Great Tang's womanly kindness to protect a group of useless people?"
"The Bodhisattva gave a dream to the King last night, and the King ordered that once Fengxue City is breached, the city will be slaughtered, so that you who don't believe in Buddhism can all go to hell to repent!"
"Kill them all!"
The group of soul-seized powerhouses all went crazy, charging and killing the soldiers of the Great Tang.
At this moment, the soldiers of the Great Tang began to retreat steadily.
Especially the many powerhouses who were charging at the front line, each of them was injured and looked very painful.
They had already shown a huge disadvantage, and even entered a countdown to death.
Everyone looked back at Fengxue City.
It seemed that the homeland behind them could no longer be protected...
But at this moment, suddenly a voice rang in everyone's ears,
"Evil beast Buddhas, daring to disturb my Great Tang, you deserve to be killed!"
Just as everyone was retreating steadily, a simple and unadorned giant sword suddenly fell from the sky!
The group of soul-seized powerhouses were extremely terrified, but they couldn't escape at all!
With one sword strike,
a dozen tribulation powerhouses from the Buddhist Kingdom of Tianzhu who were charging at the front were instantly reduced to ashes!
The scene instantly fell into dead silence.
