Chapter 1 The Beginning

Da Luo Holy Land.

Midnight.

The sky was not yet bright!

But the entire Da Luo Holy Land appeared extremely solemn.

One hundred thousand disciples stood ready in full battle array.

From outside the Da Luo Holy Land, all the way to the Da Luo Dao Discussion Hall.

Every disciple's face showed seriousness.

Today, Dharma Master Xuanxin was arriving, an event watched by the whole world.

All the major forces of Central Continent had already arrived at the Da Luo Holy Land.

At such a moment, no one was allowed to be presumptuous.

Every link, every detail, could not go wrong, otherwise, it would be a loss of face for the Holy Land.

Dao Discussion Hall.

The surroundings were already a sea of people. The Ten Great Holy Lands of Central Continent had all sent high-level figures to watch this Dao discussion, with a portion of young talents among them.

Today's Dao discussion would have a great impact. Even the various Holy Lands had sent Deputy Holy Lords or Grand Elders to this place.

Because if they really lost, they would directly discuss countermeasures. Their arrival meant that they possessed absolute power.

It could be said that everyone in the world knew that the Daoist sects of Central Continent would never allow Buddhism to come to Central Continent to promote the Dharma.

So everyone in the world also knew that this battle could only be won and not lost. If they lost, it would lead to a great disaster.

Demons and foreign races were eyeing them covetously. When Buddhism and Daoism fought, they would definitely interfere.

To put it more broadly, this Dharma debate would have a huge impact. An invisible storm of blood was already quietly spreading throughout Central Continent.

"Do you think the Da Luo Senior Brother will win?"

Around the Dao Discussion Hall, a young generation of talents couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe, but at least it's the last hope."

A refined man said this.

"Xuanxin is too strong. Whether in Dharma debate or fighting, he can be called the number one of his generation. Buddhism may really prosper."

A young man wearing golden armor said calmly.

"Yes, Buddhism has produced a remarkable person, but Da Luo Senior Brother is by no means an ordinary person. He was judged by the Heavenly Mystery Sect Master as the number one immortal cultivator throughout the ages. Naturally, he has his confidence."

A young cultivator surrounded by yin and yang energy said.

"Imperial Preceptor will surely win."

A man wearing a python robe spoke. This was a young prince of the Da Qian Dynasty. His tone was extremely firm.

"Holy Teacher will surely win."

A young man from the Righteous Sect also followed suit, establishing an invincible heart.

People were talking.

Inside the Da Luo Palace, Headmaster Qingyun sat in the main seat, while on the left and right were the high-level figures of the major forces of Central Continent. Everyone's face was very calm, and the palace was extremely quiet.

No one wanted to break this silence.

But the more serious it was, the more terrifying this Dao-Buddhism debate was.

If the Daoist sects won, then Buddhism would decline.

If the Daoist sects lost, then Buddhism would prosper.

The impact was great, even mixed with the struggle for the fortune of the two major religions. It was a major matter that could affect the entire immortal cultivation world.

A moment of carelessness could lead to a great disaster. At that time, it would definitely not be as simple as the devastation of the people.

Time passed little by little.

Chou hour.

Yin hour.

Mao hour.

Chen hour.

Finally, Dharma Master Xuanxin arrived.

"He's here!"

"Dharma Master Xuanxin is here."

"He's here, he's here."

"Look, Xuanxin is here."

"Has he finally arrived?"

"I'm so excited, I'm so excited now."

"Stop talking, I was fine, but when you said that, I got excited too."

"The ultimate collision between the number one genius of the Central Continent Daoist sects and the number one genius of Buddhism. Whether the Daoist sects are strong or Buddhism is strong depends on today."

"The younger generation cannot represent anything, but it can represent the future."

"I'm nervous, I'm nervous, I'm so nervous now."

"Where's Senior Brother? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

With the arrival of Dharma Master Xuanxin, the entire Da Luo Holy Land was in an uproar.

"Silence!"

Just then, a loud voice rang out. It was the voice of the Head of the Punishment Hall.

One sentence silenced everyone.

At this moment, everyone realized that they had lost their composure.

Outside the Da Luo Holy Land.

Xuanxin held a wooden staff in his hand and wore a very simple white robe. His face was weathered, his feet were covered in mud, and his face wore a faint smile.

"Da Luo!"

Xuanxin spoke slowly. He stared ahead. The Da Luo disciples were already standing on both sides, their faces solemn, showing the demeanor of Da Luo.

"This poor monk is Xuanxin, here today at the Da Luo Holy Land to debate the Buddhist Dharma with Lu Changsheng."

Xuanxin spoke, his voice not loud, but as if it had divine power, allowing everyone in the Da Luo Holy Land to hear it.

"Please!"

At this time, a voice rang out, but it was not Lu Changsheng's voice, but the voice of a Da Luo high-level figure.

When a guest comes, one naturally cannot refuse.

"Thank you."

Dharma Master Xuanxin thanked him, and then walked step by step towards the Dao Discussion Hall.

Half an hour later.

Dharma Master Xuanxin had arrived at the center of the Dao Discussion Hall.

The so-called Dao Discussion Hall was a huge circular yin-yang disk. Dharma Master Xuanxin sat down at the black side. He was wearing white, and seen from above, it seemed to have an indescribable transcendence.

Countless eyes were focused on Dharma Master Xuanxin.

Everyone was silent, and countless young talents showed surprised expressions.

Because Xuanxin was too ordinary, so ordinary that he didn't look like a venerable monk at all, but rather like a small novice.

It was different from what they had imagined.

Theoretically speaking, Xuanxin, who could defeat the Nine Great Holy Lands in debate and was known as the reincarnation of the Buddha, should not be like this.

But it was precisely because of this ordinariness that it made people feel extraordinary.

In the center of the Dao Discussion Hall, Xuanxin appeared very quiet.

He didn't say a word, quietly waiting for everything.

"We respectfully invite Senior Brother!"

And just then, as a voice rang out, in an instant, the Da Luo Holy Land, one hundred thousand disciples, at this moment, said in unison.

"We respectfully invite Senior Brother."

"We respectfully invite Senior Brother."

"We respectfully invite Senior Brother."

The sound was deafening.

Tens of thousands of Central Continent's young talents focused their eyes on the main peak.

Everyone showed a look of incomparable anticipation.

This world-shaking battle was about to begin.

However, at this moment.

From the main peak.

A voice rang out.

"The Dao that can be told."

"Is not the eternal Dao."

"The name that can be named."

"Is not the eternal name."

"Nameless, the origin of heaven and earth; name, the mother of all things."

The voice rang out, and like Dharma Master Xuanxin, the sound was not loud, but it seemed to have divine power, falling into everyone's ears.

But what was different was.

After this voice rang out.

Taking the Da Luo Holy Land as the center, terrifying mana spread out.

Streams of purple energy came from the east, spreading for thirty thousand miles.

In the sky.

The stars trembled.

Ancient statues, at this moment, instantly burst out with immeasurable light.

Inside the Da Luo Palace.

At this moment, everyone who had been extremely calm.

In an instant, they opened their eyes, revealing a look of shock.

"The Great Dao Truth!"

Someone cried out in shock, the shock in his eyes could not be suppressed.
