The modifier 'Founded by.........century B.C." modifies Zoroastrianism.
The verb-ing modifier " containing............features" again modifies Zoroastrianism.
But the plural verb "were influencing" for singular subject is incorrect.
(A) were influencing
(B) which influencing (use of which is incorrect. Also this option will make the sentence a fragment i.e. no main verb)
(C) influenced (correct)
(D) which had influenced (no two or more events to show sequencing)
(E) had influenced (Same as choice D)
