The Purple-Robed Celestial Master has turned into a zombie?! Who can stand that?!

Chapter 209 Shake people
Even Buddha himself didn't expect that the celestial masters in the lower realms would be so audacious.

Zhang Daoling's grandson challenged him today.

The Buddha originally thought that by personally coming here today, taking Maudgalyayana away would be a piece of cake.

After all, he is the supreme Buddha of the West, and who in the Three Realms wouldn't give him face?
But then they ran into Zhang Tianlu.

Zhang Tianlu is going to fight Buddha to the death today; he can't take any of the manpower with him.

Trying to scare me? It won't scare me at all!
Moreover, Zhang Tianlu possessed two Heavenly Master Swords, a pair of male and female swords bestowed upon him by Laozi himself.

There are also two Celestial Master Seals given to him by Laozi on his head.

With these things laid out here, if the Buddha dared to take action, it would be disrespectful to Laozi, and the issues involved would be very serious.

After all, the Celestial Master's Sword Seal was bestowed upon Zhang Daoling by Laozi to enforce the law and vanquish demons in the mortal realm.

It belongs to the legacy left by Laozi in the mortal world. How can you, the Western Buddhist sect, destroy it?
So you've removed Laozi's representative in the mortal realm?
Offending the Three Pure Ones will not end well.

Therefore, Buddha's expression froze.

The atmosphere at the scene was also very tense.

It seemed like a major battle was about to break out, but Zhang Tianlu remained completely calm.

Because if he knew he had to take action, he would have done it long ago; he wouldn't have waited until now. The fact that he hasn't taken action shows that he won't change.

The Buddha asked, "Young man, are you determined not to give my Buddhist sect any face today? Fine, we've now formed a grudge."

This old monk is taking him away today. What can you do about it?

The Buddha certainly dared not shatter the Celestial Master's Sword Seal.

However, when he swept a beam of Buddhist light over, he was still able to deflect the Celestial Master's Sword Seal.

Then Buddha swept up Maudgalyayana from the ground and was about to take him back to the upper realm.

However, at the very moment that Buddha made his move...

Zhang Tianlu also made his move.

"You've violated three rules, you're not leaving today!"

Zhang Tianlu grabbed one of the Celestial Master Seals and then held the Celestial Master Sword in his other hand.

The next second, he gripped the Celestial Master's Seal, held the magic sword, and chanted Taoist incantations.

Chanting incantations and casting spells, they can move people throughout the three realms.

Longhu Mountain, as the ancestral home of Taoism, could not have survived for over 2000 years in the mortal realm without a background, nor could it have stood out among the various Taoist sects to achieve its current status.

If Maoshan is said to have powerful connections below, then Longhushan is said to have powerful connections above.

Moreover, Zhang Tianlu's background is much stronger than that of ordinary Dragon Tiger Celestial Masters.

Ordinary Dragon and Tiger Celestial Masters are just descendants of Zhang Daoling, and their relationship is the same as that of ordinary people. After many generations, the relationship is not so close.

But Zhang Tianlu is different; Zhang Tianlu is Zhang Daoling's grandson!
The closest blood relatives, and within three generations.

There has been a saying about the special bond between grandparents and grandchildren since ancient times.

The saying "a son is not as good as a grandson" perfectly describes this kind of relationship.

Grandchildren and grandfathers are usually the closest to each other, so you can understand how powerful Zhang Tianlu's background is.

It's like a grandson asking his grandfather for a favor—it's only natural!

Zhang Tianlu originally intended to have a proper discussion with Buddha, since he couldn't take Maudgalyayana with him. However, Buddha was furious and tried to snatch the man away right in front of him, so Zhang Tianlu decided to be ruthless.

It's fine if you don't respect me, but you can't disregard the entire Daoist sect.

If the law were to be unrestrained, the entire Three Realms would be overturned.

Even the emperor is subject to the same laws as commoners. You Buddhists think you can transcend these three laws? Dream on!
Zhang Tianlu immediately used his magic sword to summon reinforcements.

The next second, the Celestial Master Sword pointed directly at the sky, and instantly the world changed color as a divine incantation was cast into the sky.

They headed straight for the Heavenly Court in the Upper Realm.

Above the Upper Realm, in the Nine Heavens.

A divine incantation was cast into the Lingxiao Palace.

Inside the magnificent and imposing Lingxiao Divine Palace, all the immortals and gods gathered.

The Heavenly Court, also known as the Lingxiao Palace, is the palace of heaven, or the Heavenly Palace, the Ziwei Palace, or the Purple Palace.

The highest ruling center in the upper realm.

Located at the highest position among the thirty-six heavens, the Great Luo Heaven, the highest point in the Mi Luo Palace is the Huangji Lingxiao Palace (Lingxiao Treasure Hall), where the Jade Emperor commands all the gods and immortals of the heavens.

The Jade Emperor reigns supreme above, governing the Three Realms. Since the end of the Journey to the West, the Three Realms and the Four Seas have been at peace for a long time.

There had been no major disturbances inside the Lingxiao Palace for a long time, but today a divine curse was cast directly from the lower realm.

This alarmed the Heavenly Court.

As soon as the divine incantation was uttered, even the Jade Emperor looked over.

Someone in the lower realm is invoking a god.

The four celestial masters standing beside the Jade Emperor looked at the divine incantation.

Three of the Celestial Masters looked toward Zhang Daoling, the Dragon and Tiger Celestial Master, who was standing on the far right.

This divine incantation came from the lower realm, passed down from Longhu Mountain.

Zhang Daoling's descendants are invoking the gods.

And they were very anxious.

Zhang Daoling said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to examine it."

After he finished speaking, he swept the whisk in his hand.

The Heavenly Mirror above the Lingxiao Palace opened in the next second.
This Heavenly Mirror is a supreme treasure in the Lingxiao Palace, capable of seeing through any place in the Three Realms and monitoring all the heavens.

Zhang Daoling activated the Heavenly Mirror, drawing the divine incantation into it and directly connecting it to the location of Zhang Tianlu.

The next second, a scene appeared on the celestial mirror, showing the Leiyin Temple in the lower realm.

At this moment, Leiyin Temple is a complete ruin.

Zhang Tianlu stood among them.

Zhang Daoling opened the Heavenly Mirror and saw Zhang Tianlu in the lower realm.

Facing his grandson, Zhang Daoling seemed somewhat dazed.

They are grandfather and grandson, so their relationship is quite deep.

Having not seen each other for over two thousand years, seeing each other again now does indeed feel like a lifetime ago.

Zhang Daoling then realized that Zhang Tianlu had already turned into a zombie.

He knew that Zhang Tianlu had failed his tribulation, and now that he had embarked on the path of turning into a zombie, Zhang Daoling was somewhat surprised, but he didn't have much to say.

Although this path is unconventional, it is not entirely without opportunity.

Moreover, the point of today's matter is not that.

Because Zhang Daoling quickly discovered that there were other people present besides Zhang Tianlu.

And that person is the focus today.

Because he discovered that the person present was none other than the Buddha of the West.

Although it was just a projection of the Buddha.

However, it also caused the immortals and gods in the Lingxiao Palace to hesitate.

Why didn't the Buddha stay in the Western Paradise? What was he doing in the mortal world?

Such a high-level immortal is rarely seen in the upper realm. He usually stays in the Great Thunderclap Temple in the West, secluded and devoted to cultivation, hoping to break through to the Boundless Primordial Realm as soon as possible.

Today, this old bald monk went straight to the lower realm.

The Taoist immortals and deities present could all see something fishy going on.

If there was nothing wrong, why would Buddha go to the lower realm?
The fact that the Buddha was drawn to the lower realm must mean that something major had happened in the West.

There's some juicy gossip to be had today.

Zhang Daoling's projection appeared at Leiyin Temple. Tathagata originally intended to take Maudgalyayana directly.

He didn't expect Zhang Tianlu to be so decisive.

They immediately called for backup.

And they even shook Zhang Daoling down.

Looking at Zhang Daoling's back, he was currently inside the Lingxiao Palace.

All the gods and immortals were watching, and Tathagata secretly thought that something was wrong.

Things had gotten out of his control.
