The Lord of Ashes

When Ms. Bev arrived at the Beehive Star Region, Rogge and others in the Gintama World had almost finished their negotiations with the Silver Knights.

The smoothness of Rogge and others' actions was somewhat beyond the expectations of the wizard civilization leaders.

However, after gaining the friendship of the Gintama World and completely pulling the Gintama World onto the chariot, the wizard civilization leaders could not help but begin to consider the deeper use of the Gintama World.

It cannot be said to be "use", "mutual benefit" may be a better term.

The Silver Knights of the Gintama World took the initiative to put aside the hatred of the war with the magic tide and chose to accept the gift of magic tide resources at the level of trillions of magic coins. It was not that the Gintama World was generous, but that the situation forced the Gintama World to do so.

The top death civilization Gintama World has just ended a civilization war that lasted for ten thousand years. Since it has always been the Gintama World that has resisted the war of the magic tide in their star field alone, the damage suffered by the Gintama World is really heavy.

Such a huge loss cannot be compensated by the little material assistance that the Wizard Civilization Peace Demon Alliance previously gave to the Gintama World.

The wizard civilization is better. Since it established a stable strategic cooperative relationship with the Gintama world, resources, legions, and dominant powerhouses have been continuously rushing to the Gintama world.

But the top civilizations of the Pingmo Alliance are a bit cunning. Except for the initial support of the Gintama world to the Pingmo Alliance, there was a considerable amount of material resources to the Gintama world.

Later, the material assistance of the Pingmo Alliance gradually became sparse, or even almost equal to nothing.

If the Pingmo Alliance did not also need to pay attention to the battlefield situation of the Gintama world and also want to win over the Gintama world, those guys in the Pingmo Alliance would probably want to cut off their assistance to the Gintama world.

It’s not just because the many plane civilizations of the Pingmo Alliance are petty, but everyone’s life... is not easy.

Except for the wizard civilization, which quickly grabbed a large wave of material wealth from the demon tide after the end of the mother plane defense war, the other world civilizations that have been struggling with the demon tide are currently in a "loss" state.

Including the current Gintama world, after receiving the resource compensation of trillions of magic coins, it is still in a stage of extremely heavy losses.

In the future, the plan made by the Gintama world is to rest for a whole 10,000 to 20,000 years.

Especially those undead masters, they should sleep when they should, and absorb the power of death when they should.

Nearly 90% of the material resources and wealth they demanded from the wizard civilization with magic coins are pure death resources.

These resources were collected and transported from the Minghe star field by the wizard civilization.

But despite this, the death materials of trillions of magic coins are still not enough for the Gintama world to digest.

Ms. Bev estimated that if their wizard civilization and the fairyland jointly invited the Gintama world, the Silver Knights would be very likely to accept such war cooperation.

"The death civilization is strong, and the number of their masters even exceeds the number of local masters of our wizard civilization (excluding the alliance masters)." Ms. Bev said.

"But the lack of a peak level 8 master and a true civilization leader is the biggest shortcoming of this top-level civilization of the death system."

"In our latest intelligence, there are even rumors that several level 8 late masters of this top-level civilization are divided and ruled, and are at odds with each other?" Ms. Bev said with a smile.

Faced with Ms. Bev's words, Tongtian Patriarch nodded solemnly and said, "The news we talked about is indeed true."

"There are indeed many masters of this top-level civilization of the death system, but the overall feeling I get... they don't seem to be perfect."

"It's more like a top-level civilization that has emerged suddenly. It is said that it has only been a mere 100,000 years since their civilization went from a large world to today."

"The rapid expansion of civilization and the large number of masters do not mean that this is an advanced and comprehensive civilization."

"In fact, our immortal realm monks found that they all have shortcomings that are difficult to conceal in the process of fighting with these dead civilization creatures and even dead masters." Tongtian Patriarch pondered.

Tongtian Patriarch's analysis made Ms. Bev look at him more.

Compared to the previous generation of Tongtian Master in Bev's memory, the reincarnation of Tongtian Master, whose real name is Duan Po, seems to be better at analysis than his predecessor, and is no longer a purely impulsive person.

Is it because this generation of Tongtian Master has experienced too much and has a true spirit-level magician as a close friend and brother? Unconsciously, Tongtian Master has also been influenced by Sean a lot.

Bev nodded and said, "If we can go to the mother plane of the dead civilization in the future, we may find out why this death civilization grows so fast, but there are huge shortcomings in the direction of civilization development."

"At present, the power of light, the power of holy light, and the mysteries of Buddhism all have great lethality to these dead civilization creatures."

"In addition to our wizard civilization and the Gintama world, Master, don't you consider the Buddhism in your fairyland?" Ms. Bev smiled.

Tongtian Master frowned and said nothing to Bev's advice.

In fact, Tongtian Sect Master was reluctant to bring Buddhists along before, not only because of some experiences in his past and present lives, but also because he had acquired memories of his two lives and remembered some of the proverbs his master Hongjun had said before leaving the Star Realm.

The "immortal realm catastrophe" mentioned by Daozu Hongjun is probably not just a threat brought by the demon tide crisis.

It may also include some problems that have always existed in the fairyland, such as: the division of the three religions, the discord between humans and demons, the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism, etc.

As for the division of the three religions in Taoism, now that the reincarnation of Tongtian Patriarch has returned, Yuanshi Tianzun of the Chanjiao has been committed to easing the relationship with his junior brother Tongtian Patriarch for nearly 100,000 years. In addition, with the saint Laozi sitting in the human religion, this crisis can be said to be temporarily suppressed.

The discord between humans and demons refers to the years of struggle between humans and demons. However, Tongtian Patriarch himself has many demon disciples. He has always advocated the concept of teaching without distinction. In addition, with Nuwa Niangniang in charge of the Wa Palace, Tongtian Patriarch believes that the crisis of humans and demons can be suppressed, at least in his generation.

Only the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism... Tongtian Patriarch has never let go of Buddhism!

And the strength of Buddhism in recent years has grown at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Moreover, the emergence of many geniuses in Buddhism also made Taoist leaders like Tongtian Jiaozhu feel wary.

I won’t mention the old faces of Buddhism such as Tathagata Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and Burning Lamp Buddha. Among the young strong men, Fahai, who shined during the Demon Tide War, will definitely be a great man in the future.

Moreover, the strongest eighth-level peak master under Laozi in the fairyland, the Destruction Giant Ape Wukong, also holds a position of Fighting Buddha in Buddhism.

This really makes Tongtian Jiaozhu worried.
