Chapter 570: Destroying Buddha (Base)

Thinking of Jiang Lichen, Li Hao thought of Hearing Hearing Yu Huang. Now, he had been in the Sage Lands for twelve years, and it had been one hundred and twenty years in the human world. He didn't know how Hearing Hearing Yu Huang was doing.

And Qianqian. Since he was assassinated when crossing the Immortal Gate, he heard that the Immortal Gate was blocked and closed. Qianqian and others behind him couldn't come to this place.

More than a hundred years had passed, and he didn't know how much change had happened to the people and things in the human world. He didn't know if many familiar faces would still be familiar.

Li Hao missed them somewhat. Now he had the ability to shuttle back to the human world and could also pick up Hearing Hearing Yu Huang and the others to this place, but he had to wait until the things here were finished.

Thinking of this, Li Hao didn't travel back to the Lesser Thousand Realm with Old Man Feng and the Dao Sage, but went along with the Sword Master to the Canglan Realm.

This time, he planned to solve the Buddhist Sect himself, not involving others.

Feng Feng Bo Ping knew what Li Hao was going to do and wanted to follow, but was rejected by Li Hao. He thought about it and didn't insist anymore. With Li Hao's current strength, even if he encountered any danger, he was enough to protect himself. If Li Hao couldn't get out, he would be the same if he went.

The little guy from back then had now soared ten thousand miles in the blink of an eye. Feng Feng Bo Ping felt happy for Li Hao and couldn't help but sigh.

"This time, solving the Buddhist Sect, the Buddhist Sect among the Sages will be eliminated, the source of faith will be cut off, and in the future, the Canglan Realm will be two major Sacred Lands."

On the way to the Canglan Realm, Li Hao walked side by side with the Sword Master. The Master Jian Sheng also followed, after all, he and the Sword Master had to return to the Sacred Land.

Li Hao also took Lin Qingying along. She said she was willing to follow, so Li Hao was willing to take her.

As for friends like Yaochi and Zhan Tan, they had their own paths, so Li Hao didn't take them along. After all, he was going to slaughter the Buddhist Sect this time, and taking these Half-Sages along would do them no good.

Hearing Li Hao's words, Lin Qingying looked at Li Hao sideways. Now the youth beside her could decide the survival of a Sacred Land in conversation. This was somewhat unbelievable.

In her heart, she was happy for Li Hao and also somewhat inexplicably sad. She missed the time in that courtyard, when he was healing, she was practicing sword, and he was painting.

In her spare time practicing sword, she could catch a glimpse of the youth concentrating on painting, like the sunshine in spring, bright and comfortable, a meeting smile.

And now, although Li Hao had no airs and didn't reveal his Sage majesty in front of her, she had a less casual mentality.

"Do you want to build a Sacred Land? If you come to the Canglan Realm to build a Sacred Land, you will definitely be able to help the Canglan Realm rank among the middle-level Lesser Worlds."

The Sword Master looked at Li Hao and invited Li Hao.

Hearing his words, the Master Jian Sheng beside him flickered his eyes. He also looked at Li Hao. He didn't ask this, but he was worried in his heart. After all, if Li Hao came to build a Sacred Land, the Canglan Realm would inevitably take the Sacred Land where Li Hao was as the leader. The status and gains of the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land wouldn't change, but it was possible that because Li Hao, this mountain, was too towering, attracting more incense, causing the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land and the Literature Ancestor Sacred Land to become increasingly insignificant.

"I don't have the idea of building a Sacred Land for the time being. I'm used to being alone and free."

Li Hao chuckled and said: "When I have more friends in the future, if they need my protection, I will consider it."

Hearing this, the Sword Master nodded and said: "Then we'll talk about it then. We'll be neighbors then."

Li Hao laughed, and the Sword Master also laughed. The Master Jian Sheng was also smiling, but his heart kept sinking. Li Hao's words only meant he wouldn't build it for the time being, but didn't explicitly refuse.

"Haoyue was too heavy-handed earlier, wasting your Dao fetus. Now you have gained from misfortune and cultivated something more powerful. I plan to include you in the core sequence of the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land's Holy Sons, like Haoyue. In the future, if you can become Sages, I will entrust the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land to the best one. I will be an idle person like that Green Lamp Buddha."

The Master Jian Sheng turned to look at Lin Qingying and said warmly.

Hearing this, Lin Qingying frowned slightly. The wasting of the Dao fetus was tacitly approved, and that thorn in her heart had always been there.

But she also knew that the world was like this. If she was devastated by this, this Master Jian Sheng would mostly likely not even look at her more. She was just a stepping stone for his disciple. Being able to help a Holy Son achieve great Dao heart and improve strength was more important than having one more Holy Maiden.

After all, Sacred Lands looked at top-tier power, not quantity.

Regarding this, Lin Qingying had already recognized it. Therefore, at this moment, she also knew that the Master Jian Sheng's words were to let her put down the previous grievances.

If she entered the core Holy Son sequence, with her current strength to defeat the Haoyue Holy Son, she would have hope of defeating him again in the future and managing the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land.

Unless some kind of change occurred.

However, these were not in her consideration, and she was too lazy to think deeply and ponder.

"I have

"I have no interest in serving as the Master Master Jian Sheng. I only like the sword..."

Lin Qingying said calmly, but as she said this, she looked at Li Hao, with half a sentence left unsaid.

I only like the sword, and one other person.

The Master Master Jian Sheng was slightly stunned, not expecting the opponent to refuse. This core Saint Son sequence was something that all the Saint Sons and Saint Daughters of all the Sacred Lands fought for desperately. Once they stood out in the core Saint Son sequence, they could control all the power of life and death in the Sacred Land, allocate the incense of the Sacred Land, and borrow the power of the Sacred Land to increase their combat power when encountered by saintly assassinations.

With all kinds of benefits, in the end, Lin Qingying actually expressed no interest.

Only liking the sword... The Master Master Jian Sheng's eyes were a bit dazed. This scene seemed to reverse time in his eyes.

The same words buzzed and rang in his ears.

"Master, I only like the sword..."

Many years ago, in front of the master, two young men stood there; one chose fame, and one chose the sword.

The one who chose the sword became the Sword Master, and the one who chose fame actually became the Master Master Jian Sheng.

Such is the way of the world; it is inevitably a bit ironic.

The Master Master Jian Sheng was slightly silent and said no more. He knew that the opponent's refusal was not because she didn't want to turn the page on this grievance; after all, no matter how great the grievance, there was no reason to refuse under such temptation, unless she was truly not interested.

Beside him, the Sword Master looked at Lin Qingying. He only found this little girl following Li Hao pleasing to the eye, but didn't pay too much attention to her.

But at this moment, Lin Qingying's words made him unable to help but narrow his eyes, and a trace of a smile slowly appeared on his aged face.

After countless years, he had met a familiar figure again.

That was time reflecting into the past, his own past.

He had taken disciples and seen many Saint Sons, but no matter how stunning and brilliant a sword Dao genius was, when faced with the burden of the name of Master Master Jian Sheng, they were extremely fanatical; no one could refuse such temptation.

He once felt disappointed and regretful, thinking he was lonely.

But recently, while fishing, he met Li Hao, this fishing buddy.

Now in the sword Dao, he met this little girl again.

"Good. As a swordsman, viewing the sword as supreme, in the future, it is not impossible to use the sword in your hand to break through all of this."

The Sword Master smiled lightly and praised Lin Qingying. This was the first time he had set aside Li Hao's relationship and appreciated this little girl.

Seeing the Sword Master's appreciative gaze, Lin Qingying realized it was a bit different from the past, and she smiled, "Senior is right."

The Master Master Jian Sheng remained silent. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and looked at Li Hao, saying, "Your sword Dao is so fierce and terrifying, and you can even comprehend that sword move of 'Immortal Pointing the Way'. In terms of sword Dao, you should be an existence that leaves all the saints behind, but I see you, and it seems you are not specializing in sword Dao."

The specialization he referred to was just a subtle way of saying it; in reality, it was to express that Li Hao did not seem to be like Lin Qingying and the Sword Master, who could sacrifice everything for the sword.

From his words, Li Hao also heard a trace of probing. After all, as the leader of the sword Dao and the recognized Master Master Jian Sheng of the lands of the saints, now that his swordsmanship was below his, it was inevitably a bit ugly and anxious.

"The sword is just a form, not the Dao."

Li Hao only replied with this one sentence.

Hearing this, the Master Master Jian Sheng frowned and pondered, but soon, his pupils shook slightly, and he understood Li Hao's meaning.

At the same time, the sword Dao in his heart also seemed to tremble, with a feeling of cracking.

The Sword Master also narrowed his eyes, looked deeply at Li Hao, and then smiled lightly, "You guy, every time you speak, you make people's Dao hearts tremble."

Li Hao smiled; he was just stating the facts.

During this chat along the way, they soon arrived at the Canglan Realm.

Li Hao sensed the location of the Buddhist Sect and immediately said goodbye to the Sword Master and the Master Master Jian Sheng, incidentally letting Lin Qingying return to the Sword Ancestor Sacred Land with the Sword Master first. In case there was any danger in the Buddhist Sect, he might not be able to look after her.

Lin Qingying also knew what Li Hao was going to do, nodded, and agreed very obediently.

"Be careful."

The Sword Master whispered.

"I'll wait for you."

Lin Qingying looked back and said.

Li Hao nodded. After saying goodbye to them, he stepped directly through the crack in heaven and earth, moving quickly. After crossing more than a hundred thousand miles, he soon arrived before the Buddhist Sacred Land.

Here, just like when he came to participate in the Prodigy Quota Battle, nothing had changed. Outside the Sacred Mountain, the Buddha light shone brightly, and among the peaks within the mountain, monks walked up and down.

On the stone steps of the dangerous peak, monks carried water, moving as fast as flying.

At the high peak, the bell rang, and a monk struck the bell.

By the edge of the cliff were Buddhist disciples sitting cross-legged in meditation, with waterfalls flowing horizontally, facing the ten-thousand-foot abyss at the edge of the cliff, contemplating life, death, and the Buddha Dao.

Compared to slaughtering the Buddha Lord in the human world, this time, Li Hao didn't have such a heavy murderous intent. He only needed to destroy the foundation of the Buddha Dao and wait for the long passage of time. With the various saints contending, the remnants of the Buddhist Sect would naturally be torn apart by the faith of the various saints and gradually dissipate.

After all, without long-term preachers, the Dao would be lost.

In this Buddhist Sacred Land, there was an extremely obscure Law Barrier. If a saint descended, it would block them, unless they obtained the temporary Law Mark on the Buddhist Sect's invitation, which would not trigger the attack of the Law Barrier.

Li Hao didn't want to cause too much of a stir, but he could only break the Law Barrier first.

With a 'bang', he approached the Law Barrier and touched it lightly with his hand. In an instant, the Law Barrier was revealed. Above the entire Sacred Land, the Buddha light shone brilliantly, suddenly as if a sun had risen, turning into ten thousand rays of golden light, and the sky was reflected into a golden color.

The Buddhist disciples and Saint Sons who were cultivating or meditating in the various peaks of the Sacred Land were all alarmed by this vision. They looked up in astonishment, and then someone realized that this was a saint visiting, and an uninvited one at that!

Saints all knew the rules. In such a situation, there was only one possibility: a saint was attacking!

"Who is it? Which saint has actually come to my Buddhist Sacred Land?"

Within the Sacred Land, several Half-Saint elders were all shocked. Some woke up from meditation and stepped out quickly.

They rode on green oxen, white pigs, peacocks, and other demon kings, flying into mid-air, looking at the heaven and earth. They saw that outside the formation, a young figure stood quietly. Although the figure was small, under this golden Buddha light, it was like the only black spot in heaven and earth.

High in the air, the wind whistled. Li Hao's hair flew in disarray. His expression was calm, and from the fingers of his palm, a sword Qi suddenly shot out.

With a 'bang', the 'Immortal Pointing the Way' opened the path, immediately shattering the formation barrier and destroying the saintly patterns on it.

That golden light was as if a gap had been torn in it, and then it faded away like a tide, and the clear sky was restored.

But unlike before, the Law Barrier had disappeared.

"How is this possible?!"

"Which saint is this? A Supreme Sage?"

Seeing this, several Buddhist Half-Saints couldn't help but be horrified.

When they saw the young man's face clearly, they were all stunned, and then their pupils contracted, shocked to the point of being unable to speak.

The young man who had suppressed the Buddha Son on the battle stage back then had actually come to their door to kill today!

They had long known the news that Li Hao had become a saint in the Supreme Prodigy Battle, but they didn't expect that the opponent had just become a new saint and had only crossed the Human Tribulation, yet he dared to kill his way to the Buddhist Sacred Land! "Hao Tian, why have you come here!"

A Half-Saint riding a peacock flew into mid-air and shouted in shock and anger.

"You know it in your heart; why ask such a question?"

Li Hao's figure flew forward slowly, appearing unhurried, and his speech was very calm; he didn't get angry with these people.

In the various peaks, Half-Saints flew out one after another, a full twenty or so, standing in the void, their figures scattered, blocking Li Hao's path.

Li Hao had just returned from the Heaven and Earth Dao arena debate. The news of the Buddha Venerable's fall didn't seem to have reached the Buddhist Sacred Land yet; they didn't know what had happened in the Heaven and Earth Dao arena.

"This is my Buddhist Sacred Land. Even if you had a grievance with my Buddhist Sect before, this move is too offensive. Do you want to fight to the death?"

The Half-Saint riding the lion said in shock and anger. During the quota battle before, he had severely reprimanded Li Hao, but Li Hao's combat power at that time was comparable to a Half-Saint, and he couldn't do anything to him.

"In the past, when I hadn't become a saint, you all joined forces, yet you were suppressed by me. Now, are you qualified to talk to me about life and death?"

Li Hao's eyes were calm as he spoke slowly, giving people a feeling of being unable to refute, both shocked and angry.

He flew straight forward, viewing the many Buddhist Half-Saints before him as nothing.

Seeing Li Hao coming, the many Half-Saints who had been blocking the front retreated one after another. The demon kings they rode also revealed deep wariness in their eyes, growling constantly, but not daring to roar loudly, as if afraid of alarming something.

Among the peaks, many Buddhist disciples with higher cultivation also flew into the air. Seeing this, they were all shocked.

The fierce criminal who had been showing off his power in the Buddhist Sacred Land and suppressing the Buddha Son had come again, and he had already become a saint.

"Where is Master?"

"The Buddha Venerable went to debate the Dao and hasn't returned. Is he afraid to go to the debate and taking the opportunity to sneak attack?"

Many disciples were suspicious, not knowing that the debate in the Qiankun Realm had already ended. After all, Li Hao was a saint, and his speed of travel exceeded the speed of information transmission of intelligence organizations everywhere.

Unless a saint specifically came to the Buddhist Sect to inform them.

Soon, Li Hao arrived above the Sacred Land and saw the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall, which was shining with golden light and was magnificent and majestic.

That was where the Buddha Venerable was located, and Bodhisattvas and Arhats were everywhere.

On weekdays, the Buddha Venerable would preach the Dao here.

Li Hao swept his gaze, looked at it, narrowed his eyes slightly, and raised his hand to strike down with a palm.

"No!"

The many Half-Saints retreated to this point and had nowhere left to retreat. Seeing Li Hao about to destroy the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall, they were all shocked and angry. Seven or eight Half-Saints roared and rushed up. Although they knew the gap between them and a saint, they intended to risk their lives to block him; this was the Dao in their hearts.

Li Hao was not angry at this, just ruthlessly suppressing them.

Different Daos, no common ground.

Boom! Above the heads of the seven or eight Half-Saints, a green light suddenly shone out, blocking Li Hao's palm print.

The Half-Saints who were prepared to die were stunned, and then overjoyed. This was the Green Lamp Buddha! The Green Lamp Buddha had rushed back! They were pleasantly surprised and excitedly looked around, knowing that they could force this Hao Tian to retreat now.

"Are you willing to come out now?"

Seeing this green light, Li Hao was not surprised and smiled lightly, "I thought you would take the opportunity to sneak attack; I didn't expect you to still choose to protect the cassock and the Buddha Hall."

A green light rippled out from the void, and the figure of the Green Lamp Buddha was revealed. He sat on a lotus platform, his aged face full of gloom and coldness.

"It's the Green Lamp Buddha! The Green Lamp Buddha is back!"

"Kill him! Don't let him escape, otherwise he will come to our Sacred Land to cause trouble in the future!"

"As long as we contain him, when the Buddha Venerable and the Two-Faced Buddha return, he will surely die!"

"Attempting to sneak attack the Sacred Land, ridiculous."

Many Buddhist disciples were overjoyed to see the Green Lamp Buddha and became excited. Hatred and murderous intent appeared in their eyes, and the nervous expressions of others immediately relaxed, and they smiled and said 'Amitabha'.

"Everything is fate. If the Buddhist Sect perishes today, in the future, you will also perish."

The Green Lamp Buddha stared at Li Hao and said softly.

Li Hao said indifferently, "All things have an end, but the difference is that I can decide your end."

The Green Lamp Buddha's indifferent expression suddenly turned cold, and he said, "How did you know I would be here?"

He had intended to strike when Li Hao was searching for treasures in the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall. He had buried three Heavenly Treasures in this Buddha Hall, just waiting for Li Hao to take the bait. As a result, Li Hao had no intention of taking the treasure directly, but instead wanted to destroy it directly. This made him realize that he might have already been exposed.

Therefore, he struck to protect the Ten Thousand Buddha Hall.

"If you had fled elsewhere and borrowed that Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon, I might not have had absolute certainty of killing you. But unfortunately, you had murderous intent. Here is the only chance you have left to kill me. You didn't want to miss it, so you will die here!"

Li Hao said calmly.

Within the Buddhist Sacred Land, the Green Lamp Buddha's power would be maximized; this was the only possibility for the opponent to defeat him.

If the opponent intended to keep fleeing, he really might not be able to find him, unless his strength kept improving and he mastered more power.

"I didn't want to kill you, but you forced me to kill you. Otherwise, when you become a Supreme Sage and invite the Supreme Sages to join forces to encircle and suppress me, I will have nowhere to flee!"

Murderous intent appeared in the Green Lamp Buddha's eyes; this was the reason he was forced to come here. If Li Hao's status rose too quickly and he invited Supreme Sages to help, he was not the ancestor of the God Race, and a Dao Tribulation Imperial Weapon could not protect him.

Li Hao raised his eyebrows; the opponent actually worried about this point.

Unfortunately, he didn't intend to invite anyone else. Even for this trip, he didn't even let Old Man Feng come to help. He only intended to solve this little matter himself.

But in the eyes of others, his threat was not just his own combat power, but also the many aids brought by his status. This deterrent was also chilling.

"This grievance should end."

Li Hao didn't stand on ceremony anymore and directly revealed his extreme realm. The Eternal Dao Domain appeared, intending to cover the entire Sacred Peak.

The Green Lamp Buddha didn't evade either, but suddenly whispered, "Form the Ten Thousand Buddha Array! Those who enter my Buddhist Sect, their incense belongs to me!"

Following his whisper, the array eyes in various places in the Sacred Land were activated, and rays of golden light reached the sky. At the same time, the power of much incense surged from all over the Buddhist Sect, all gathering on the Green Lamp Buddha.

Behind him, a majestic Heaven and Earth Dharma Image slowly appeared. That image was over a hundred thousand feet high; the majestic giant peak was not even as long as its thigh, and its upper body entered the clouds, shaking away the clouds and mist on the dome. Such a majestic posture allowed more than a dozen divine dynasties around the Sacred Land to see this scene.

"What is that?"

"Such a big Buddha; that is the saintly Dharma Image of the Buddhist Sect!"

"So big? How terrifying!"

"What happened to the Buddhist Sacred Land? Why did the saint reveal such a big Dharma Image?"

In the divine dynasties, many people were frightened by this scene, shocked and puzzled.

And the existences such as the Si Tian Jian and the Great Emperors in the divine dynasties all stepped onto the Star Observation Platform, looking at the majestic Buddha Dharma Image from the best viewing spot.

Their expressions were solemn, and they immediately realized that the Buddhist Sect was facing a great catastrophe! Within the Buddhist Sacred Land, Li Hao's eyes were solemn. This gathering of the Sacred Land's power was indeed fierce. This was no longer at the level of a Three-Calamity Saint; compared to an ordinary Three-Calamity Saint, it was at least three to five times more powerful! "Die!"

The Green Lamp Buddha's eyes were cold. He suddenly raised his hand, and a green light reaching the sky shone out. A Buddha palm from the Dharma Image slapped down from the sky, as if to flatten the entire Buddhist Sacred Mountain! And this terrifying heaven and earth power was concentrated in the center of that Buddha palm, concentrated on Li Hao alone.

Li Hao's long hair flew. As this palm was about to arrive, he flipped out the pitch-black 'Gongming' in his palm.

Then, he concentrated all the power of his Dao Domain on the sword body.

He raised his hand and slashed out a sword—the 'Only I' Sword Dao, 'Immortal Pointing the Way'! Boom! That giant palm, falling like a burning sun, was burning with golden flames. Under these golden flames, there was a bright silver light that illuminated more than a hundred thousand miles in an instant.

Everyone within this range felt a flash of light before their eyes, as if something had swept past, and countless people were astonished and puzzled.

But this sword light cut the Buddha palm straight open.

A terrifying explosion occurred in heaven and earth, and the void rippled layer by layer. The aftermath of the impact shook the void into ripples.

After this impact swept past, Li Hao's silver hair was revealed. He looked up at the majestic Buddha statue, and then didn't stop, suddenly slashing out a second sword.

This sword used the power of 'Transforming into an Immortal', moving heaven and earth, instantly triggering infinite power, and the sword Qi slashed down violently.

Boom! The Buddha Dharma Image raised its hand to block it. Rays of Buddhist supernatural powers and golden light appeared, and there were also phantoms of demons, which became part of the supernatural powers. But before that sword light, they were all shattered and destroyed.

Then, the sword Qi slashed directly onto the Buddha's body. That majestic body was like being hit in the face with a club; the golden flames dissipated, and sharp cracks appeared in the center of the Dharma Image's body.
