The Great Emperor Ziwei, born in the Sky Mechanism Pavilion, knows the nature of the Buddhist Sect better than anyone else. He is clear that those bald monks have no good intentions, and they will never sincerely help themselves and the others. Joining forces with them is like seeking skins from tigers, which will definitely not end well.
After all, they haven't reached the point of desperation yet. Sometimes, teaming up with the Buddhist Sect might end up trapping themselves.
Even though the Buddhist Sect is powerful, they have many enemies. Otherwise, why would the Taoist School and the Demonic Gate join forces to drive out the Buddhist Sect in the past?
The conflicts between Buddha, Demon, and Tao are extremely intense. In some cases, the struggle for orthodox lineage surpasses the struggle for interests. If the power among the three sides were balanced, it would be fine, but unfortunately, the powers among the three are not balanced.
