Chapter 1915 - 1860–1861 Taoist Monarch About to Fall_2
The fact that even a Taoist Monarch could fall indicates that this great battle is far more terrifying than they had imagined.
Even though both of them are at the True Immortal Sixth Layer Heaven, just one step away from becoming Taoist Monarchs, they also understand how powerful a Taoist Monarch truly is.
Initially, they thought this battle, despite being a contest among Taoist Monarchs where they might personally take action, would be limited, with mutual restraint, since even if a Taoist Monarch lost, they would still retain a fundamental base of interests. Thus, the real fierce battles would involve those below the True Immortal Sixth Layer Heaven.
Given their strength, as long as they don’t face a powerful Taoist Monarch directly, it’s not particularly difficult to save their lives against any True Immortal or God, even if they’re at a disadvantage.
However, Pei Xuanjing’s words clearly suggested a different concept, implying that even they, as True Immortal Sixth Layer Heaven experts, face a significant risk of losing their lives in this battle.
The two of them fell into a moment of silence, needing to reassess the upcoming situation.
"Master, which Taoist Monarchs took action that day?" Pang Hong asked, curious about a question that had been troubling him for a long time.
Zhao Baiyang’s actions this time were indeed remarkable, but besides his own abilities and courage, it’s undeniable that the mysterious Taoist Monarch who intervened greatly helped their group.
Indeed, there are rules that a Taoist Monarch should not easily attack a True Immortal, as it would break the rules.
Yet in that situation, since the Buddhist Taoist Monarch Bodhisattva had already descended, without anyone stopping them, they would definitely have dealt with Zhao Baiyang and the other two decisively, not giving them a chance to attain Taoist Monarch status.
In such circumstances, even if this Buddhist Tao Monarch Bodhisattva’s action disrupted the rules and later faced questions or even joint punishment from other Taoist Monarchs afterward.
But these are things for later; at least for Zhao Baiyang and the two Demon Monarchs at that time, it was a doomsday scenario. They would have lost their lives, and the opportunity to certify as Taoist Monarchs would have been gone. No matter the cost to Buddhism, it would have been meaningless to them.
