Chapter 191: Once, Twice But Not Thrice
Jingjing quickly hid the envious look in her eyes, but she still couldnt help feeling jealous inside. At the same time, she felt glad as well.
Getting close to this girl had turned out to be the right decision. That way, she could go to the Upper World with Shuanger. Just thinking about that made her secretly happy.
Woong! The flying ship suddenly shook.
Shapeless laws of nature suddenly began to gather, and the qi in the air started to form a gigantic whirlpool.
A thin crack in the spacetime looked like a large mouth appeared, and an icy wind blew out of it.
Heaven is on my side! a mildly delighted voice suddenly rang out from the crack. Su Yuqing slowly appeared after those words.
And youre still trying to make a sneak attack on me?
Immediately after that, an earth-shaking roar cut off Su Yuqings laughter. A gleaming spear shot out from the crack and crashed into the flying ship violently after Su Yuqing barely dodged it.
Marahus large and muscular body suddenly squeezed out through the crack. His eyes were as large as temple bells as he kept his gaze on Su Yuqing. An immense wave of demonic qi came crashing down and darkened the flying ships surroundings.
Thats enough! You should know very well that I dont care about these pathetic lower worlds you live in. Who cares if these lowly ants live or die? You do your thing, and Ill do my thing. Stop making trouble for yourself! Su Yuqing glanced at Marahu and snapped, And now, you can go ahead and conquer this lower world of yours if you want. Ive got other things to do, so Im not going to spend any more time on you!
Sure, sure Marahu raised an arm to take his spear back. His laughter sounded like war drums as they thundered loudly. He gave Su Yuqing a long look before appearing next to You Hantian in less than a second.
What a vicious attack! You Hantian looked up and gritted his teeth as he barely managed to dodge Marahus sneaky attack.
He was now the only Nascent Change cultivator around, so it wasnt possible for him to defeat a devil at Divine Soul like Marahu. Thankfully, this fellow had very little understanding of the laws of nature, so that had given him the chance to escape.
Retreat!
After he came to a decision, he yelled that one instruction to the rest, kept away his sword, and made a run for it. The way he ran without hesitating made it clear that this wasnt the first time he was doing something like that.
What the hell?!
Zhan Wuchang and the rest gaped at this instruction, and they all felt like crying now. You Hantian was at Nascent Change, so he could run really quickly. But the other sect leaders were only barely at Peak Origin Core. How could You Hantian just tell them to run without doing anything else? Did he think that Marahu was an idiot?
But since things had come to this, they werent going to sit around and wait to die. They quickly cast several spells to force the devils that kept fighting them to move aside, exchanged glances, and quickly followed You Hantian in the direction of the Seven Kill Sect.
Was this fate? Or was this predestined?
The intense battlefield had fallen apart immediately after Su Yuqing made it clear that he wasnt going to help. All the main characters in this battle had headed toward the Seven Kill Sect instead
Thats the end of the matter, so lets go!
Su Yuqing looked down at the monks who had been abandoned with an icy look on his face and twitched his lips. He formed a dao seal with his hands and thrust it out, causing the flying ship to shake violently. The laws of nature seemed to transform into swords that cut through the sky, and dao runes glowed brightly from the corners of the ship. It rammed a gigantic black hole into the space in front that looked like a void and slowly drove into it.
The Buddhist cultivators left below exchanged bitter glances. By this point, they realized that they had fallen into a trap.
Their original plan was to defend their beliefs and rid the world of the devils in order to accumulate good karma. Who knew so many unforeseen things would happen? Bitterness rose in their hearts as they watched how more and more fang-baring, nasty, muscular devils kept pouring out from the whirlpool.
If not for that cultivator named Gu Suihan, we wouldnt be in this state now. A slightly younger monk had a furious look on his face, and the anger in his voice expressed more than his words.
All of this is a test for us, or the consequences we have to face from our previous lives. We just need to do our best, said the elderly monk with a saddened sight. He suddenly recalled all those blasphemous things Gu Suihan had said about buddha, and his heart trembled. An iciness from deep within his bones hit him, causing his face to look even older and shriveled. His skinny body started to bend a little.
All of you are like the pillars of the Pure Land Temple, and I dont want anything bad to happen to you. In the past, there was a buddha who cut his own flesh to feed an eagle in order to save a sparrow. So, why dont I use my body to feed the devils instead?
A middle-aged monk with a troubled look on his face suddenly kept his prayer beads and levitated in a cross-legged position. A strange glow burst forth from his back, as though buddha had come to save all living things. The golden glow spread everywhere like the sea, such that every devil that had gathered was converted by the chanting of scriptures. Their faces were peaceful as they picked up their weapons and began to hack at their fellow devils.
Junior brother Tears streamed down the elderly monks cheeks. He clutched his prayer beads tightly s he watched his fellow Buddhist monk do his best to fight off the thousands of devils attacking him. He let out a long, frustrated sigh, then raised his hand to shoot the prayer beads in his palm out.
Boom! The scriptures on the beads made an explosive noise, and a giant golden door suddenly appeared.
Junior brother, take care. I will be waiting for you to conduct the morning class at the temple The elderly monk looked up at his junior in mid-air, his golden glow slowly weakening and waning. He gritted his teeth to hold back his tears, then stepped into the golden door without looking back.
Senior brother, Im so sorry, but I wont be able to make it!
The monk watched the golden door slowly disappear with a peaceful smile on his face. The sarira pearl in his consciousness burst forth, and a majestic buddha glow spread across the land. As though he had found his last spurt of energy, he put his palms together with a satisfied smile on his lips as he finished reciting the Pure Land Rebirth mantra.
Once he had finished reciting the mantra, he quietly bowed his head. The Sanskrit on that brilliant sarira pearl in the air disintegrated, and the runes on it fell apart. Everything turned to ash and was blown everywhere.
Crap! Gu Suihan and the Huangquan Evil Ghost looked up at the same time and turned to one another as they said simultaneously, Theyre here!
And who were they referring to?
Great Elder Lu and Zhou Lingfeng, of course.
These two didnt bother to hide their vast, imposing aura that seemed able to shatter the skies at all, so it felt like two gods had just descended upon the earth. They were like two immortals as their presence covered thousands of miles, with a close eye on the Seven Kill Sect.
Choose one of threewhich one should we choose? said the Evil Ghost anxiously. It looked up at the thick layer of dark clouds from time to time and felt a chill rise from its heart to its head, which made it shiver.
Things have already come to this and you still refuse to say it? Gu Suihan suddenly looked straight at the Evil Ghost, his darkened glare so intense, it was as though he could bore a hole right through the Evil Ghost to its heart.
Saysay what?
The Evil Ghosts heart started palpitating in fear. Gu Suihans seemingly indifferent yet mysterious stare made it feel a little uneasy, as though the young man had managed to peek into its thoughts.
In that case, forget it. Well just randomly choose one of them. Gu Suihan sighed quietly and turned to fill each of the three formations with spiritual stones. A thick wave of qi instantly gathered in the meditation room. It looked misty as the sheer amount of qi made it visibly white and caused the Evil Ghosts vision to become a little blurry.
BAM!
You
Youre trapped!
Several noises resounded within the meditation room along with angry sounds from the Evil Ghost. A few moments later, peace returned to the meditation room.
The only sound left was the panting of the Evil Ghost as it struggled weakly. It was in great pain as a saber was used to pin it to the wall.
You already planned to do this a long time ago, didnt you?
The Evil Ghost had a sad smile on its face as it used all its strength to lift its head. It could feel the energy inside its body being sucked out by the saber like a whale taking in water, even though the saber looked more like a toothpick to it. It finally gave up struggling.
Thats right.
Earlier on, I fell for your trap and so I ended up getting caught by You Hantian at the Youthful Clarity Sect. This time, I actually walked into your trap again. I really deserve this The Huangquan Evil Ghost began to shrink in size, which made its ugly head look even scarier than before.
Gu Suihan ignored it and continued to hit the Evil Ghost with seals made from the laws of nature. They hit the Evil Ghost again and again, as though he were forging a piece of iron.
Each time a seal hit the Evil Ghost, the hateful look on its face would intensified. It would also look paler as time went by. Its struggling became weaker and weaker.
Gu Suihan pulled his saber out and looked down at the goblin-like Huangquan Evil Ghost on the floor. It was now only four feet tall. He said in an indifferent tone of voice, You know You Hantians identity and you also know which one of these formations is the safe one. And you also know many more things that I dont. I gave you two chances. I dont mind giving you one or two chances, but not a third one! I will find out what you know sooner or later, so youre not as useful as you imagine yourself to be.
Ha, what a joke. Whether I tell you about these things or not is my business. Why must I tell you? the Evil Ghost retorted as it looked at Gu Suihan with a mocking look.
Gu Suihan glanced at it and spoke in a voice that was chilling as the winds in hell. It was none of my business at first, but what you know happens to overlap with what I want to know, so you have to say it.
His tone of voice was gentle, but it was filled with a dominance that did not allow any room for negotiation as well asa sense of finality.
BOOM! The first peak suddenly began to shake. The courtyard and study outside the meditation room were completely destroyed. The ruins, flying rocks, splintered wood and broken plants gathered to form a huge wave of dust that could make one choke.
Youare finally here.
Gu Suihan wasnt surprised by the commotion outside the door. He picked up the Evil Ghost with one hand and used the other to wave the dust away as he stared at Great Elder Lu and Zhou Lingfeng, who were standing outside the room.
