The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1958: Chapter 1904–1905: The Great Battle Concludes, Heavy Losses

On this day, facing the provocation of the three great immortal sects towards the Buddhism School, the Buddhism School dispatched numerous Arhat Venerates led by Contemplating Arhat, along with countless cultivators, commandeering nearly a hundred ships with a fleet centered on several sixth-generation warships, to attack Smoke and Mist Sacred Land.

This time, the Buddhism School struck with thunderous momentum. All parties believed that the Buddhism School intended to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, to intimidate the restless immortal sects. The immortal sects were also shocked by the Buddhism School’s ability to dispatch such a powerful fleet, believing that Smoke and Mist Sacred Land had no escape this time.

Unexpectedly, the Heterodox Alliance suddenly intervened, uniting with the fleets of the three great immortal sects, forming a fleet of over a hundred warships, hunting with the strong ones of Buddhism in the Chaos Void.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle, causing the void to shake. Just as the Buddhism School appeared to be at a disadvantage, a Buddhist Bodhisattva of Great Momentum appeared, and with a wave of his hand, annihilated the coalition warships and strong ones, breaking the rule of Taoist Monarchs not to bully True Immortals.

One might have thought that the appearance of a Taoist Monarch strongman would determine the outcome, but unexpectedly, a Taoist Monarch of Divine Skill Miaoji appeared, intercepting the Buddhist Bodhisattva of Great Momentum.

Additionally, Lord Chong’en and Daoist Chong Ying obstructed outside the Buddhism School to delay the intervention of the Buddhist Bodhisattvas of Buddhism.

Ultimately, the battle ended with a crushing defeat for the Buddhism Alliance. The Heterodox Alliance and the three great immortal sects jointly destroyed over thirty Buddhist warships, damaged over twenty, and captured over ten, finally retreating with Contemplating Arhat under the protection of the Buddhist Bodhisattva of Great Momentum with the remaining forty-plus warships.

The Buddhism School returned in defeat, suffering heavy losses. Nearly half of the powerful warships were damaged. Fortunately, the Buddhist Bodhisattva of Great Momentum preserved many strong ones in the Buddhism School’s fleet, giving it an opportunity to rebuild.

However, although the Heterodox Alliance and the three great immortal sects were victorious, they also suffered significant losses and retreated respectively, and the internal conflict within the Buddhism School temporarily subsided.

This battle, being the first large-scale chaotic conflict with over two hundred warships, made countless strong individuals and forces realize the terror of these warships and the fearsome power of Taoist Monarchs.

Thus, all parties began to learn from experience, at great expense forging new, more powerful warships, one after another seeking to purchase finished sixth-generation warships and casting technology from the top immortal sects through the Bai Xiaosheng Organization and Sky Mechanism Pavilion.

At the same time, worried about the actions of Taoist Monarchs, they all sought to curry favor with numerous Taoist Monarchs to seek protection if necessary, while also finding ways to enhance their own strength, hoping to promote a Taoist Monarch.

Furthermore, after this battle, the three great immortal sects and the Heterodox Alliance formed an alliance against Buddhism, with Zhao Baiyang, a newly ascended Taoist, and the three Taoist Monarchs behind the three great immortal sects overseeing, various immortal sects grew restless, seemingly with the intention to join.

…

“You’ve worked hard this time.” Tie Qianshan said to the Vajra Sect Leader and Zi Tianxiong.

At this moment, the Vajra Sect Leader and Zi Tianxiong led many strongmen of the Heterodox Alliance, returning to a sub-branch guarded by Xue Wuheng.

Although they suffered considerable losses in the previous battle, not only losing many warships but also many strong ones, overall the Heterodox Alliance did not lose.

Not to mention the plundered resources from those worlds of Buddhism were enough to make up for a significant part of their sub-branch losses, the consecutive battles also truly tempered the cultivators under them.

War is the thing that can temper people the most. Regardless of how they previously trained disciples or what resources and effort they invested, without experiencing real war, these disciples’ growth lacks the baptism of warfare.

This battle allowed these cultivators to truly engage with strong opponents, experience life-and-death trials, and under the waves, they gained unimaginable rewards.

Some who might have reached the limits of becoming Supreme Strong but were unable to ascend to True Immortal by their efforts, and could only choose to climb the path to God known by the Gods, saw hope for a breakthrough after the blood and fire of war.

“It’s nothing. At least for me, the harvest is substantial!” The Vajra Sect Leader shook his head indifferently.

Leaving aside that he is the vice alliance hierarch of the Heterodox Alliance, a member of it, he feels obligated to plunge into danger when faced with it.

Not to mention that during this battle, despite the great risks, the rewards for him were enough. If not for the opportunity to plunder many worlds of Buddhism, where would he have found the resources to advance so quickly to the True Immortal Sixth Layer Heaven?

“Each of us has different roles. At least what you are doing wouldn’t be easy for me.” Zi Tianxiong shared the same attitude.

Appearing as if he and the Vajra Sect Leader led many warriors to roam in the territories of Buddhism, constantly fighting with Buddhism strongmen, embroiled in many risks, both Tie Qianshan and Xue Wuheng have actually also carried numerous tasks.

Xue Wuheng, leading so many people, was able to resist the Heavenly Court Alliance for such a long time, the effort and risks involved are unimaginable.

Although there was some prediction when they made their move, as long as they purely attacked Buddhism, the Jade Emperor’s side, for the sake of bleeding Buddhism dry, would inevitably choose to stand still and exert no effort, facing not much risk.
