Chapter 721: Ascension (8600 Supplement)

The Spirit Treasure Qiankun Cauldron transformed into a canopy, shrouding a radius of one hundred thousand li!

Even if the sun turned into the moon at this moment, it would be impossible for the light of the Blood Moon to descend upon Zhengqi Peak again!

"The Blood Sea does not dry, the Blood Demon does not die; in reality, it is that the Blood Moon does not wane, and the Blood Demon does not die!"

"To destroy the Blood Demon, one must first isolate the Blood Moon!"

Dongfang Jie gazed at the gray radiance in the sky, a trace of a smile appearing on his face, and then he formed seals with both hands: "Go!"

Situ Yin, who was looking up at the sky, had his expression change; patterns of bronze chains appeared on the surface of his body, like moving tattoos!

"Old Ghost Dongfang... when you were heavily injured and fled last time, you actually planted something on the Blood Demon in secret, didn't you? This 'Heart-Locking Divine Restriction', even in the Upper Realm, is not something an ordinary cultivator can obtain..."

The scholar surnamed Nie swept a glance at Dongfang Jie, his expression shifting slightly: "You actually thought of today's situation back then and specifically laid out a backup plan?"

"Hehe... this old man truly couldn't beat that Blood Demon, and even after exhausting all my strength, I was left heavily injured myself, so I could only resort to some crooked ways... If you want to talk about what is truly formidable, it is still the Original Demon Sect; that 'Transformation Demon Pill' can make a Spirit Severing mid-stage Demon Cultivator's cultivation skyrocket in a short time, comparable to the Spirit Severing late-stage... If it didn't have the terrifying effect of shortening one's lifespan, we would have taken one each, and perhaps with our combined efforts, we could have long since slaughtered this Blood Demon!"

"One Thought Flower Blooms, rise!" The old monk formed seals solemnly.

The Blood Sea seemed to suffer corrosion, and one after another, the Blood Drops and Blood Demon Children all screamed and turned into corpses.

Affected by this, the surrounding void was constantly shattering, and Thunder exploded; it seemed as if this world itself was rejecting this demon!

"It is now!"

Nirvana of Divine Sense!

In the center of its palm, countless swastika symbols emerged, like golden quicksand, suddenly converging toward the center!

Originally, this Buddhist secret technique was designed to assist cultivators in gaining enlightenment and breaking through barriers.

If one could recover from this state of Nirvana, there would be immense benefits.

A massive Buddha statue, incomparably tall and engraved on its surface with sealing methods from the four schools of Buddha, Demon, Taoism, and Monster, stood proudly between heaven and earth.

In the very center of the Buddha statue's palm was the Blood Sea, condensed to the extreme, and at the core of the Blood Sea was the Blood Demon Situ Yin!

An old monk with white hair and beard pressed his palms together: "The Blood Demon is rampant and possesses the ability to be reborn from a drop of blood; as long as the Blood Sea in the world does not dry, the Blood Demon does not die... Therefore, to deal with it, one can only seal it... By using the Buddhist Nine Consciousness Secret Technique to seal its various demonic consciousnesses... so as to force it to passively reach the Nirvana realm of no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, or mind, and no color, sound, smell, taste, touch, or phenomena!"

When the corpses fell into the Blood Sea, they were rapidly converted into pus and blood, replenishing the consumption of the Blood Sea.

"Not so, this is also because the materials are good... and one must seal a Spirit Severing Perfection cultivator as the core to achieve it..."

Petal after petal of the lotus fell, and seated within was no longer the previous giant Buddha, but an image of a ferocious-looking Demon God with four faces and eight arms!

This Demon God stepped on countless skulls, each arm clutching a demonic Artifact, its face displaying the four expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, its appearance vaguely similar to Situ Yin's, yet not entirely the same.

"It can only be this way..."

An old demon sneered several times, then continuously formed Dharma seals.

Being in the midst of Big Extinction and Great Bliss... even with means to break restrictions, one would not wish to use them!

As Spirit Severing cultivators, there is still a limit to their lifespan.

After the Array was fully set up, Dongfang Jie's eyes burned with heat, and he shouted loudly.

The giant Buddha statue showed a compassionate expression and suddenly pressed its palms together.

"Roar roar!"

Clatter!

The massive flower bud suddenly split open a gap, and a strange fragrance drifted out...

But this Buddhist Spirit Severing old monk did the opposite, turning this kind of benefit into an even more powerful seal!

Dongfang Jie was overjoyed and looked at a Spirit Severing old demon.

Before the words had faded, a giant lotus throne formed at the base of the Buddha statue, opening its petals and wrapping the Buddha statue inside, like a giant flower bud.

Pale golden light converged, solidifying into the figure of a giant Sumeru Buddha that stood between heaven and earth.

But at this moment, their presence was even stronger than the ferocious Garuda war beasts!

"Amitabha!"

Chirp chirp!

The Blood Demon Situ Yin at this moment was undoubtedly in this state!

"Then... let us begin!"

After an earth-shattering long cry, a giant strange bird descended from the sky, heading straight for the Blood Demon!

Garuda war beast!

On the back of the Garuda war beast stood several cultivators, small as sesame seeds.

Accompanied by a Buddhist chant, Array patterns appeared between heaven and earth.

"We use this person as a lure, and we will surely attract the Boundary Breaking Power... to communicate with the Upper Realm..."

Bang!

Finally, the giant Buddha hand firmly imprisoned the Blood Sea and Situ Yin, and several Spirit Severing cultivators appeared all around, throwing various Talismans, Dharma Treasures, and Array Formations onto the Buddha hand as if they cost nothing.

Dongfang Jie said indifferently.

And as for all the Spirit Severing cultivators in this realm, trapped by their cultivation and the shackles of heaven and earth, unable to ascend to the Upper Realm for their entire lives to extend their lifespans, how desperate must that be?

When an opportunity appears, one must naturally grasp it firmly!

On this point, even the Evil Path can join forces with the righteous path!

"Drink!"

Looking at the style and patterns of the Array, it was at least a Tier 5 Great Array!

Except for the fact that it could not produce an Array spirit due to the short setup time, it seemed to be no less than the Supreme Big Dipper Edict Array of Beidou Hall and the Myriad Transformation Spirit Gathering Array of Zhengqi Sect!

"Begin!"

Just as they were communicating rapidly through divine sense, these several Spirit Severing cultivators had already continuously taken out materials, surrounding the giant flower bud to set up one ancient Array after another.

And at this moment, Situ Yin seemed to still be entangled with the 'Heart-Locking Divine Restriction' that Dongfang Jie had secretly planted earlier, and both his reactions and everything else were a beat slow.

At this moment, three Spirit Severing Demon Cultivators, their bodies exuding such chilling demonic energy that the void itself trembled, suddenly appeared, raising their hands to release blood flames, black mist, and water from the Yellow Springs...

Roar! Roar!

"This is... complete."

Around the flower bud, nearly ten Spirit Severing cultivators from the Taoism, Demon, Monster, and Buddha factions had gathered; yet, instead of the joy that follows a great tribulation, they were filled with a certain... excitement?

"The strength of this Blood Demon Situ Yin is absolutely comparable to Spirit Transformation Perfection!"

"The Demon Puppet technique of your Demonic Dao has truly reached the Peak of Perfection!"

"For this goal, the destruction of Shushan Sword Pavilion and Black Demon Sect was not unjust... and it was worth us raising the Blood Demon to be so fat..."

Dongfang Jie and the scholar surnamed Nie appeared simultaneously, looking at this towering Buddha statue that was almost taller than Zhengqi Peak, and each let out a sigh.

Hiss! Hiss!

That four-faced, eight-armed Demon God roared at the sky, and a ripple of Dharma Power far exceeding that of an ordinary late-stage Spirit Severing cultivator, reaching the level of Spirit Transformation Perfection, surged outward.

The eyes of the Spirit Severing cultivators from every faction lit up, and they successively took out Array Disks, Incense, Tokens, and other such tokens, casting them into the void before them.

Using the passage opened when this Demon God breaks through the boundary for Ascension, and attempting to contact the upper realm or even smuggle themselves through directly, was the ultimate goal of these Spirit Severing cultivators!

Since Situ Yin would not voluntarily ascend, then they would turn him into a puppet! Let the puppet attempt to break through the limits and ascend!

Even if it fails, at least... the Demon God has ascended! It can also be considered removing a hidden danger for this world!

As for where it ascends to, does that matter?
