Shuzhou.
The murderous and bloody aura that had filled the wilderness was swept away in a single day. In its place, there was the light of Buddha and the ghosts.
All those who were immersed in killing and fighting, and all the anxious commoners, were baptized by the Buddha’s light and fell into a deep sleep.
It was after they had awakened that the strange thing happened. All those who woke up from their slumber were as if they had been transformed, their faces full of frenzy and filled with a disturbing madness.
The Buddha’s light, which should have been peaceful, brought the most supreme of hauntings.
Apart from some True Dan realm martial artists, the rest, even Divine Origin realm martial artists who had already practised their spiritual power, were not spared.
Everywhere the scripture block pa*sed, believers were everywhere.
“It’s about time.”
High in the sky, Brahma’s ears heard the sound of all the scriptures being chanted and his face took on a wry look, “Destroy the heavens, release the heavens.”
Two figures appeared beside Brahma, the pale grey Extinguisher of Heaven and the suffused Divine Thunder of Sakyamuni. The two also sat down on their knees, their true qi condensing into black and silver-blue lotus platforms, opposite Brahma’s back, looking all over the place.
“The three phases stand side by side.”
In an instant, the heavenly Brahma light shone in the sky, just like the Buddhist legend of the Brahma Pure Land descending into the world. In the midst of the Buddha’s light that shone in all directions, there was a monk, sitting cross-legged under the Bodhi tree, with thirty-two faces and eighty followings, preaching and proving the sutra.
“All sentient beings – if egg, if foetus, if wet, if incarnate, if coloured, if colourless, if thoughtful, if thoughtless, if non-thoughtful, if non-thoughtful, if non-thoughtful – I will cause them to enter the nirvana of non-remainder and be destroyed. ————”
“Rudra?”
At the border of Shu, a sturdy figure stepped into the territory, looking at this extraordinary vision from afar, his sword Qi rushing to the sky.
“This trip is not in vain.” The Sword God took a step of ten feet, his sword intent awe-inspiring.
He had thought that he would only be avenging the death of Yan Tian in pa*sing, but he had never expected to come across such a big surprise. That vision of the Buddha becoming a Taoist was already an indication of the extraordinary nature of the person who was cooped up in Shuzhou at this time.
The Blade God pa*sed through the air like a supreme heavenly sword in transit, leaving a long shadow of a blade wherever his figure pa*sed, using him as the blade body and the Blade God in action as the tip, with his blade pointing directly at the monk under the Bodhi tree.
As the blade god advanced, the monk’s chanting of the sutra grew louder and louder, sounding like a celestial voice that resonated endlessly. At this point, the sutra was recited exactly ——
“—— I shall exterminate an infinite number of sentient beings.”
The monk raised his head, and all thirty-two faces returned to one, revealing a solemn, pure – and eerie – face.
I only heard him reveal a wry smile as he said, “At the end of the Dharma, my son and my grandson will be monks, wearing your robes and corrupting your Dharma, having the name of monk and practicing the way of the devil!”
“Boom…”
The Buddha’s light turned to demonic light, the Bodhi tree withered and fell, and on the black lotus platform sat not the ancestor of the Buddha’s school, the supreme virtue, but the actual enemy of the Buddha.
“Rulai…”
The monk’s face slowly splits open as if it were molting, revealing the three-faced, six-armed, unimaginable demon within, a threefold voice that is difficult to mix, with an indescribable strangeness and a supreme majesty, “We have returned. The three phases have become devils, and I am Bo Xuan.”
“No sound or colour is difficult, the boundary mind is profitable, the bowyer’s breath is released, and the answer is lost body sorrow.”
As this enemy of the Buddha appeared, all those who were baptized by the Buddha’s light chanted the sutra mantra in succession, boundless fervour and rebellion imbuing their bodies.
“Boksha —–”
It was also at this time that the sword, arrived.
The Broken Sword Blade was like a pillar of heavenly peaks, pouring down, and the sword diaphragm that straddled the heavens opened up the sky and struck the demon Buddha who had just appeared.
“Haha —— and receive a slash from me.” The God of Swords held his sword, his battle intent blazing.
It was a great surprise that such a powerful force still existed among the peaC*ck remnants lingering in the western lands. The unity of the three most powerful men had forged the unearthly demon before them.
“Dang…”
The invulnerable sword diaphragm and the dark golden palm met with a crisp and pleasing sound.
The golden body of Bo Xuan was unharmed as he took the blade of the Blade God head-on.
What caused this demon Buddha to appear was the three days of Nalanda Temple, but it was the Three Phase God, who could compete with the Buddha at the time, that really established his strength.
The Three Phase God, who forced the Heavenly Dao to open the back door for the Buddha to become a Taoist, would never be inferior to the Blade God in strength, or even, even more so.
Now, even though it is only a remnant of its power, after three days of nurturing over the years, it can recreate the power of the Three Phase God that it once had.
“Sword, I take it,” Bo Xuan’s head twisted slightly and the face of Shi Tian spoke, “you take my blow too.”
Raging demonic thunder twisted in the palm of his hand, full of paradox and uncertainty, forming countless balls of thunder that swirled above his head, “The thunder of Buddha’s execution.”
The devilish thunder, which was completely contrary to the Buddha’s teachings, came blasting forth, and in each black ball of thunder was the most violent devilish aura, and the twisting lightning had a disgustingly unsettling aura.
“Carved insects.”
The Blade God crossed his sword, still a plain, unadorned slash, but the violent blade intent caused the Demon Buddha’s eyelids to jump.
Chop.
All the devilish thunder was obliterated by the sword qi, and the arrogant and wild devilish intent could hardly leave a trace.
The Blade God rushed out from the blade qi, and a black blade mark came in his face.
“Dang… dang…”
In close combat, there was no flying sword qi, but there was the most terrifying danger. Each slash of the Sword God had an extreme sharpness and an overwhelming slash intent, while Bo Xuan’s kung fu was in his body, and his Demon Buddha Golden Body was at its peak, shaking off this supreme slash.
The two battled in the air, their straightforward and tough fighting style and their powerful attacks caused the entire sky to stir.
It was as if the Blade God never knew how to turn the tables, he just attacked head on, never intending to strike from the sidelines. Faced with such a tough attack, the other two sides of Bo Xun’s four arms were not able to play well, facing the attack with a sense of restraint.
Finally, after a few hundred strokes in a row, the frontal arms showed knife marks and could not take it anymore.
“Switch.”
The face turned and the body shifted in a flash, a pair of pale grey slender palms clamping down on the chopping blade astral.
At this moment, the face of the Destroyer of the Heavens revealed a demonic smile, and the Eye of Shiva opened wide on his brow, the Flame of Destruction, rushing out.
The God of Swords raised his sword and blocked it, forming a shield of sword qi, blocking the flames of destruction from three feet away. But the flames were like maggots on the bone, encircling the shield, and no matter how much sword qi was extinguished, there was still a follow-up force to support it, making the flames burn even more fiercely.
From a distance, it looked like a ball of flame.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bo Xuan’s six arms were raised high in a heavenly gesture, with Extinguishing Heaven as the main focus, a pure black wheel of light took shape between the six arms, “Extinguishing Holy Heavenly Wheel.”
The wheel of light blasted in, cleaving through the sword qi shield and striking against the straight slashing Broken Sword Blade.
“Bzzzzzzzzzzzz–”
The destructive wheel of light kept spinning and rubbing with an ear-splitting sound before, violently, exploding.
“Boom–“
