Chapter 520: Destroying the Supreme Golden Body again! The unspoken rules between Saints!
Saint Jieyin’s Supreme Golden Body, along with the Vajra armor, was easily slashed in two by the gray Great Dao Sword.
Sharp sword Qi overflowed, and the other parts of the Supreme Golden Body, especially the thirty-six heads, were all riddled with holes by the sword Qi.
Having destroyed the Supreme Golden Body and released a large amount of sword Qi to disrupt the other parts of the body, the gray Great Dao Sword also consumed a vast amount of energy and slowly began to dissipate.
After destroying the Supreme Golden Bodies of Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin respectively, Luo Fu did not continue to strike, but locked his gaze onto them, a trace of solemnity rising in his eyes.
The previous battle was just a warm-up; what followed would be the true battle, as the strength of a Saint is not as simple as what was just displayed.
It was not just Luo Fu; Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin, besides being shocked, were also filled with unprecedented gravity.
They never expected that Luo Fu would have the means to elevate his Great Dao realm to the Hunyuan level.
Possessing a Great Dao realm at the Hunyuan level meant that Luo Fu could potentially become a Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal at any time.
Even if Luo Fu’s Great Dao realm was forcibly elevated through certain means, it indicated that he was not far from being a Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal.
A Great Dao realm is different from magic power; to forcibly elevate it, one must also have a certain degree of comprehension oneself.
If one had not touched the Hunyuan level oneself, even with many means, it would be impossible for Luo Fu to elevate his Great Dao realm to the Hunyuan level.
Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin exchanged a glance, and a trace of regret flashed through their hearts.
If they had known Luo Fu’s strength was so formidable, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin would absolutely not have moved against him.
Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin did not want to offend a powerhouse who had one foot in the Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal realm to the death unless necessary.
But now, regret was too late; since they had already moved against Luo Fu, there could be no peaceful resolution between them and him today.
Even if they did not want to fight, Luo Fu would not allow it.
Therefore, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had only one choice left: to unleash their full strength and continue to strike at Luo Fu.
Even if they could not suppress Luo Fu, they had to teach him a lesson.
Deterrence is fought out, not spoken out.
From the moment Luo Fu appeared in the Primordial World, he had been actively provoking Buddhism. Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had also long harbored much dissatisfaction toward him.
As long as Luo Fu remained in the Primordial World, he and Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin would sooner or later have to have a showdown.
Since they would have to fight sooner or later, they might as well continue fighting now.
Luo Fu was still only half a step into the Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal realm; he was not yet a true Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal.
Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin still held an advantage in realm over Luo Fu.
Taking advantage of this moment, it was still possible for Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin to join forces and teach Luo Fu a lesson. Once Luo Fu became a Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal, it would be hard to say.
Given the many means Luo Fu had displayed, if he truly became a Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal, none of the six Saints of the Westward Journey could claim they could suppress him.
Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin exchanged a glance, and both had made their decision.
Fight, continue to fight at all costs.
If possible, it would be best to take advantage of this moment to completely suppress Luo Fu.
Right now, Luo Fu had not yet become a Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal and still had weaknesses in his strength; there was a possibility that the two of them joining forces could suppress him.
"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Luo Fu would already be on par with us. It is truly a joyous and congratulatory event that a Hunyuan powerhouse has been born in the Three Realms again."
Saint Jieyin did not strike immediately, but looked at Luo Fu and praised him.
His praise was not mere politeness, but came from the heart.
If calculated seriously, Luo Fu could be considered the first powerhouse in the Primordial World to rely on his own strength to attain the Hunyuan Dao.
And the Hunyuan realm was also the realm that Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had always craved.
"Hehe, Saint Jieyin is too polite. I have merely relied on some minor means to temporarily elevate my strength to the Hunyuan level; I still have a long way to go before becoming a true Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal."
Luo Fu smiled faintly and responded calmly.
Even now, Luo Fu did not intend to fully expose his true strength.
His true opponent was not Saint Zhunti or Saint Jieyin, but Feng.
Compared to Feng, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin were not worth mentioning.
If it were not for the need to hide his strength, even if Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin joined forces, he could suppress them with a flip of his palm.
"Regarding the matter of the Westward Journey, our Buddhism is willing to accept the loss. However, we cannot simply swallow this loss. Therefore, there must eventually be a showdown between us and you."
Having witnessed Luo Fu’s strength, Saint Jieyin finally admitted that they had lost the Westward Journey bet.
Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had come to the Chaos to block Luo Fu this time, not only to seize the Nine-Rank World-Destroying Black Lotus from him but also to renege on the Westward Journey bet by suppressing him.
Yes, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had not intended to acknowledge the Westward Journey bet from the beginning.
In the eyes of many great supernatural beings in the Three Realms, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin were already accustomed to being shameless and had long become synonymous with having no face.
Since that was the case, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin did not mind being a little more shameless.
Although the advantage of Buddhism in the Westward Journey Great Calamity had been weakened a lot because of the bet, the momentum of Buddhism’s rise had at least been reduced by half.
But as long as they suppressed Luo Fu and removed his interference, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had plenty of means to set things right and pull the Westward Journey Great Calamity back onto its original track.
Although the fortune and merit Buddhism harvested was not as much as originally expected due to Luo Fu’s interference, it would still be much more than it was now.
Now that they had witnessed Luo Fu’s strength and confirmed that he could be considered half a Hunyuan Da Luo Golden Immortal, Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin had to acknowledge the bet; this was an unspoken rule among Saints.
"Hmm, there must be a showdown. I have also long wanted to witness the means of the two Saints. Please, two Saints, continue to strike and let me have a good look."
Hearing Saint Jieyin still being polite, Luo Fu could not help but feel a bit impatient.
He had come here to kill Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin; he had long grown tired of Saint Jieyin’s polite words.
Hum!
Following Luo Fu’s words, the Great Dao Sword Array began to tremble, and strands of sword Qi rose in the Chaos, the surrounding chaotic air currents being directly shredded by these sword Qi.
"Then I will let you witness the true power of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array."
