Chapter 625 - 624: Do You Believe in Light?
In the presence of Menglu and more than twenty colour and lust demons, it was a chaotic spectacle indeed.
The critical point is.
Their target was not merely Prajna.
Demons are inherently greedy.
Not to mention, they are not foolish.
As the most powerful being of the Buddhist Taoist in the upper three realms, it was clear Prajna, at the level of a Sacred Emperor, was an extremely hard bone to chew.
Even with the backing of the will of the Great World, whether they could really take a bite out of him was uncertain.
Attempt it.
They definitely must.
The melody of lust played by Snow Sound was mainly targetted at Prajna.
But at the same time.
In the rear, at the Heaven Dragon Temple, were many bald heads of high cultivation level which Menglu and the others couldn’t ignore.
These bones too were hard.
Especially those few Immortal Kings.
But compared to Prajna.
These baldies seemed easier to chew upon.
Why wouldn’t they seize such an opportunity?
If they can take a bite, there’s no loss.
If not, they wouldn’t lose anything either.
The crux of the matter is.
Having the backing of the will of the Great World, they were in a position where they encountered such an abundance of nutrients - an opportunity which hadn’t in their entire life before.
Without needing to think, they knew.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity...
In perfect harmony, more than twenty colour and lust demons led by Menglu chose to go all out.
As they confronted Prajna directly, their numerous incarnations swiftly multiplied from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.
Each person from the Heaven Dragon Temple was entwined with at least twenty incarnations of the colour and lust demons.
Each of these twenty incarnations were alluring, scantily clad, exuding seductive aura while presenting themselves in coy, modest or fervent manners.
Please tell me.
Who can withstand this?
Let alone the fact that Menglu and their ilk had the backing of the will of the Great World now, their abilities were amplified to the extreme.
Even under normal circumstances.
Facing this kind of pressure is not something a regular person could handle.
Buddhist people, have a clear mind and clean senses.
But practicing Buddhism.
And being a true Buddha are two different things.
They are still human.
Even ones with high cultivation levels like the Sacred Emperor Prajna, are no different.
"Great baldy, come play!"
"Great baldy, stop reciting sutras. Let’s enjoy ourselves~"
"Great baldy, wanna play in the water?"
"Great baldy, Buddhism talks about ultimate bliss, would this humble girl have the honor of discussing it with you?"
Under the soft seductive voices and various forms of allure, the Heaven Dragon Temple had fallen into utter chaos.
Setting up formations for defense?
What’s that?
Those who were slightly lacking in concentration had begun copulating with the air or the ground frantically.
Those with slightly better concentration were also in their own world, having no choice but to sit cross-legged, choosing to hold fast to their heart.
Even the Immortal Kings were not an exception.
If it was normal.
When meeting colour and lust demons of not such high status, the several Buddhist practitioners of the Return to Origin realm could drive them away with a thought.
But now.
They all had the backing of the will of the Great World...
They can’t drive them away.
As for fighting, you simply can’t!
Not to mention these alluring figures tangling with them were incarnations rather than the actual bodies of the colour and lust demons and didn’t feel threatened about dying.
All the incarnations exhibited the powers of the colour and lust demons, you dare to move?
If they touched you.
No problem.
But if you touched them.
If you don’t have some real skills, you would be in trouble immediately!
After that.
It would be a shameful spectacle.
Followed by being ruthlessly squeezed.
Seeing that just over twenty colour, and lust demons almost wiped out the entire regular force of Heaven Dragon Temple, Prajna’s eyes flashed with rage.
Looking back at those with weak cultivation and bad concentration who were discarding their clothes and copulating with the air or the ground, the usually calm Prajna was extremely furious.
However, as he was currently being held up by Menglu and the other colour and lust demons, he could not make a move.
He.
He was the only person who really had the power to kill the colour and lust demons.
But the issue was that these colour and lust demons currently had the support of the will of the Great World and were utterly impossible to kill.
Kill them?
That wouldn’t mean anything.
On the contrary.
He had to be careful about the colour and lust demons’ unrelenting attacks.
Prajna had a high cultivation level.
At the same time, he was also the number one Buddha’s Taoist in the upper three realms.
But because of this, he couldn’t afford to lose.
If his cultivation was compromised, the status of Buddha’s Taoist in the upper three realms would instantly change, and he himself might fall into a precarious situation.
Sacred Emperor.
Was a title and not a realm.
There were only five people with this title throughout the upper three realms.
But there weren’t just five people who had reached the corresponding level.
Although the number still wasn’t high, being there or not made a huge difference.
Just as there were countless Emperor-level beings eyeing the positions of the four great Emperors of the Immortal Realm, there were also many eyeing the positions of the five Sacred Emperors of the upper three realms.
There were more people than just Prajna in the Buddhist practices of the upper three realms who had reached the level of a Sacred Emperor.
Furthermore, there was more than just Heaven Dragon Temple in Buddhism.
On the surface.
They were under the rule of Prajna and Heaven Dragon Temple, true.
But if given the chance to replace the current Sacred Emperor of Buddhism and replace the Heaven Dragon Temple, these people of Buddhism who claimed to live without conflict with the world would definitely seize the opportunity.
Looking coldly at Li Jing in the back, Prajna, who was covered in colour and lust demons, joined his hands in prayer, sat cross-legged, and slowly closed his eyes.
Seeing this, Li Jing silently reached out, giving Snow Sound a thumbs up.
Prajna had been held down.
So now wouldn’t he be like a tiger among sheep?
However, while it was a good idea, reality was different.
Even though Prajna was restricted, and many Buddhist cultivators fell into a state of carelessness which could have them entangled with the colour and lust demons, it doesn’t mean that there were no others in the Heaven Dragon Temple.
Just as.
Just as Li Jing was planning to turn around and reap some benefits, a loud rebuke echoed from the depths of the Heaven Dragon Temple.
"Which demon has disturbed the peace of my Heaven Dragon Temple!?"
Following that.
An endless display of Buddha’s Light is bursting within the Heaven Dragon Temple.
It’s unknown the kind of power this Buddhist light holds, but all color and desire demons it shines upon let out horrifying screams instantly.
Even under the will of the Big World, they are still one-by-one evaporated into wisps of blue smoke, which then promptly dissipate.
Upon witnessing this, Li Jing frowns.
He is about to look into the Heaven Dragon Temple, but his gaze suddenly encounters the manifestation of a Buddha higher above, his form immense and muscles bulging, his face filled with anger.
"Amitabha."
A lofty Buddhist chant rings in his ears.
"Arhat Taoist Wuzhen, please enlighten this pilgrim."
Before the words drop, the Buddha image in the sky transforms into an Angry King Kong, its body filled with Buddha’s light, transforming into the blazing Sun’s Heavenly Fire, it throws a punch that thunders down heavily.
"Tch!"
Seeing this, Li Jing clicks his tongue and rushes up to meet the fist with one of his own.
"Boom!"
A loud sound.
Li Jing is flung back even faster than his previous advancement, his body hitting the ground and creating a crater.
Simultaneously,
The heavy fist of the Angry King Kong Buddha continues its descent, causing the ground to quake as it lands.
The next instant.
Unrivalled Blood Qi and Demon Qi erupt from the ground.
Under the golden Buddha’s light that fills the sky,
The world turns into a mix of red and black.
"Boom!"
The ground shatters,
The Buddha’s heavy fist breaks apart, causing an uproar within the Heaven Dragon Temple.
"Who on earth are you? To break my Arhat’s Tao? Even with the Body Becoming Saintly, you shouldn’t be able to achieve this."
Li Jing stands up and meets these words with a smirk.
"You see only the sky from the bottom of a well, if you think it can’t be done, does it mean it cannot be done? Buddhists should refrain from anger and desire, your cultivation must have gone to the dogs!"
Despite his words, Li Jing transforms into a shadow and decisively retreats.
This unseen Wuzhen,
is very strong.
I fear his actual strength may not be far off from Prajna’s.
At the same time,
From afar, the spot where the Unnamed Taoist Artifact had previously collapsed, suddenly explodes. The Spirit Weapon Wuming, carrying itself, heads directly towards the Heaven Dragon Temple.
Following it, Spirit Weapon Qingfeng also puts their sword away and follows.
These two Spirit Weapons have completely different personalities.
But what is similar is,
they are both rather arrogant and stubborn.
If they could, they would definitely want to challenge Prajna for another three hundred rounds.
But at this moment, Li Jing needs them to stall the suddenly appearing Wuzhen.
Spirit Weapon Wuming and Spirit Weapon Qingfeng go directly into the Heaven Dragon Temple. Of course, Wuzhen can’t continue to trouble Li Jing.
Heaven Dragon Temple is not only people outside.
There are numerous people inside the temple gates.
Their cultivation is relatively weak, they have to hide within the temple for protection.
If a massacre ensues, it would be disastrous.
Meanwhile,
Linglong Tower, that was descending with a boom, finally lands.
The entire Heaven Dragon Temple is enveloped, the Power of Forbidden within the tower starts to work instantly.
But this is not the key point.
Linglong Tower is only a Half-step Taoist Artifact.
Even though it holds the cultivation level of the Return to Origin Realm, and is supported by the will of the Big World, it is limited by its inherent quality.
It cannot control the numerous Buddha Cultivators within the Heaven Dragon Temple in a single moment, less so Prajna and Wuzhen, two top-tier strong ones.
However, within Linglong Tower, it has completely become Li Jing’s domain.
Li Jing, transforming into a shadow, uses his connection with Linglong Tower to freely teleport around and go on a rampage.
In the blink of an eye, many Buddha Cultivators have died on the spot.
And their deaths are very miserable,
every single one of them exploded with a punch.
This event caused the Buddha Cultivators who were only just free from the allure of the music and desire demons, not having had time to form their formations, and having just escaped from the clutches of the Heavenly Demons through Wuzhen’s power, to fall into chaos.
At this moment, some of them haven’t even had time to pull up their trousers.
Of course,
this is not the key point.
The key point is,
they cannot capture Li Jing who is controlling shadow rules and freely teleporting within Linglong Tower.
Even the dozens of Immortal Kings supposed to have the power to restrain Li Jing to a certain extent are at a loss.
Seeing that in the blink of an eye, ten or twenty beings of the Return to Origin Realm have exploded, everyone present cannot help but feel their hearts pounding.
One punch, one kill.
This is not something achievable by Body Becoming Saintly.
Body Becoming Saintly,
mainly brings about the effect of invincible body and unlimited strength.
It’s not possible to freely wield the "special effects" of this unlimited strength.
Its usage,
has an "internal cooldown".
The length of "cooldown" relates to the actual realm of the body becoming saintly.
Li Jing has just entered the Return to Origin, it is impossible for him to use it so frequently.
However, despite this,
he is still able to achieve one punch, one kill.
How could this not make the Buddha Cultivators present panic?
The deaths right now,
are only some powerful beings.
But if Li Jing starts targeting them...
This situation inevitably causes all the Buddha Cultivators present to fall into chaos.
At this moment,
"Amitabha" reverberates between the heaven and the earth, Prajna, sitting in mid-air, opens his eyes.
In that instant.
A desire demon who was unscrupulously reaching into Prajna’s lower half lets out a wail, transforming into a wisp of black fog and rising up, disappearing under a wisp of Buddha’s Light.
Menglu and other desire demons become stunned, they decide to retreat immediately.
However, they are still a bit too slow.
One wisp of Buddha’s Light after another descends, causing them to cry out in pain. They transform into black fog and rise up, disappearing from the scene.
They haven’t died.
Instead, they were forcefully driven back to the Outer Realm Sky.
Outside Linglong Tower, Snow Sound who is still playing her tune is affected. She lets out a groan, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.
Li Jing is simultaneously affected and his movement halts.
After all, Snow Sound isn’t merely his Magical Tool, but also his Lifebound Magic Instrument and one of his Origins.
When Snow Sound gets hurt, naturally, he is injured too.
Just within this moment of him halting, Buddha’s Light from Prajna envelops him, an overwhelming Buddhist power immediately acts upon him, attempting to evaporate him.
Obviously,
It’s utterly impossible to evaporate Li Jing with mere Buddhist power.
Even without the will of the Big World backing him, the one thing he, with his body becoming saintly, found least daunting was this kind of offensive that purely affected the physical plane.
But the situation at this moment was apparently not good.
Prajna had managed to get rid of the Monster of Lust and was now paying attention to him.
Look.
Li Jing, immobilized by Buddha’s Light, lifted his eyes and instantly met the bland gaze of Prajna coming over.
Their gazes met.
Li Jing spoke.
"You, that’s all you’ve got?"
"I don’t need much to deal with you,"
Prajna responded calmly.
"That’s right, after all, I, as a Return to Origin, don’t qualify."
Li Jing shrugged his shoulders, then gave a grin.
"But, I already found you a foe that might be worth your real effort."
?
Prajna showed a question mark.
"You, believe in light?"
Li Jing grinned.
Prajna frowned, not understanding his meaning.
Suddenly.
He felt something and turned his head.
Far away in the sky outside the Linglong Tower.
Next to Spirit Weapon Snow Sound, Spirit Weapon Smoky Eye had somehow put on a sexy and tempting nun’s suit, her expression solemn and her eyes closed as she knelt on one knee on the ground.
"Qingyuan’s Mysterious Skill, Illusory Reflection."
In a soft whisper, Snow Sound opened her eyes, and her red lips gently parted.
"God said, let there be light!"
Before the pleasing female voice had fallen, a "wow" was heard from the high sky as the clouds surged inwards. The fierce and pure white aura, to the extent of being unparalleled, shone down upon the entire space level.
An old and exceptionally majestic figure appeared in the sky, slowly opening his eyes.
Seeing this, Prajna’s face slightly changed, turned around and looked straight on.
"Ancestor God from the Outer Realm".
???
The Ancestor God’s will that responded to the prayer.
He.
Was the Light Ancestor God of the Supreme God System.
Even more superior to the Supreme, he belongs to the "retired" kind.
However, at this moment.
He was pondering three questions.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
Seeing the Prajna in front of him as if facing a great enemy, he was even more bewildered.
What the hell...
Isn’t this the bald guy from the east side?
And an extremely strong one at that.
And looking behind him, there are countless bald figures.
The Light Ancestor God felt somewhat unwell all of a sudden.
East and West.
Have always been at odds.
The most inharmonious are Buddhism and the Faith System.
The reason is simple.
The essence of Buddhism is also the path of faith, but their cultivation path is not limited to this faith approach.
Can two different faiths coexist without fighting?
Putting that aside.
Facing the current situation, the Light Ancestor God immediately realized that he seemed to have come to an extraordinary place.
Subconsciously.
He turned his head.
What caught his eye was Smoky Eye showing a toothy smile.
Qingyuan’s Mysterious Skill.
In the Upper Three Realms, it definitely doesn’t count for much.
However, the word mysterious holds the essence.
The will of the Big World is also overwhelmingly powerful.
The two complement each other, and Smoky Eye, transformed into a believer, managed to do something absolutely impossible, summoning the Light Ancestor God.
Now, facing the summoning of his own will, Smoky Eye, wearing something probably related to a nun but a more sensual and interesting outfit, the Light Ancestor God immediately realized that he had been deceived.
But he couldn’t figure out how.
Why on earth was he summoned over here?
Let alone deception.
There’s no way anyone in the world can directly summon his will...
Even if the current Supreme God of the Supreme God Domain were to offer a wave of devout prayers, it is impossible to achieve this.
While bewildered.
The Light Ancestor God raised a hand.
???
Light Ancestor God.
Seeing this, Prajna down below immediately turned even more serious.
He wasn’t a fool.
He could see that the bewildered appearance of the Light Ancestor God didn’t seem like an aggressor.
But now.
It was clear that the opponent was about to make a move.
As expected.
The bewildered Light Ancestor God pressed down with his hand.
In an instant.
The whole world was left with only light.
At the same time, Prajna shouted out a Buddha’s name.
"Amitabha".
Following that.
The Buddha’s form reappeared, magnifying more than ten times larger than when dealing with Li Jing.
An endless golden light bloomed, protecting the Heaven Dragon Temple behind him.
The fierce white aura clashed with the golden light, and they were evenly matched.
Where the two lights met, the space shattered hundreds of times in the blink of an eye, with the regulation of space no longer effective in restoring the damage, turning into nothingness.
Seeing the stalemate, Prajna snorted coldly.
"Break!"
At that moment.
The golden light immediately pushed the fierce white aura into the high heavens.
His own tactics being broken, the Light Ancestor God couldn’t help but groan.
At that moment he became unwilling.
Although he didn’t understand how he was inexplicably summoned, and why under some sort of intervention he couldn’t control himself and acted, but this made him unhappy.
Who is he?
He is the damn Light Ancestor God!
When it comes to tenure...
Even Prajna’s juniors cannot be considered as such.
After all, as gods...
They do not cultivate.
The years they’ve lived...
And the divine domains they’ve fought in...
That’s what truly represents their strength.
Does a bald man from the Eastern World dare to hurt him?
When has the God of Light, who has conquered countless divine domains, ever suffered this kind of humiliation?
Does he really think that he wouldn’t dare to be ruthless?
With a chilling stare, the God of Light broke the sky full of Buddha’s light with a slap, then pointed out.
"God has said, this world will be filled with divine brilliance."
At that instant...
A white aura brighter than the previous one by ten thousand times illuminated the entire world.
The look on Prajna’s face was so ugly when he saw this.
The God of Light is very strong...
He knew this.
But he didn’t expect him to be so strong.
With a suppressed grit of his teeth, he sat cross-legged in the air.
"All beings, are like all Buddhas."
The next instant...
A separate world appeared behind him.
That...
Was a vast, boundless universe.
All of a sudden...
A dazzling Buddha’s light bloomed deep in the universe.
However, this Buddha’s light was not facing the white aura shining down from the high skies, but was going in the opposite direction.
In the blink of an eye...
All the Buddhist and Taoist cultivators present received the Buddha’s light, and behind them appeared one after another Buddha statues of various majestic forms.
At the same time...
All the Buddhist and Taoist cultivators gained enlightenment, and sat cross-legged to chant Buddhist scriptures.
The power of tens of thousands of Buddhist and Taoist strongmen instantly became one with the Buddha statues, forming a protective shield of golden Buddha’s light to protect the Heaven Dragon Temple.
"Boom!"
A deafening sound swept over.
Two kinds of brilliance intersected, shaking the earth.
The attack of the God of Light was successfully blocked.
However, including Prajna, everyone bleeding from their mouths and noses.
Li Jing, who had already started harvesting and watching the show without Prajna’s restriction, couldn’t help but be astounded at this scene.
This God of Light, how much more than just a little fierce?
His achievement, greatly exceeded his expectations.
He actually managed to hurt Prajna, one of the Five Sacred Emperors of the Upper Three Realms.
But right now...
It seemed like it was about to end here.
Just as he had this speculation...
The color of the world changed.
The God of Light, who wanted to pick a fight, was blocked by the defense. He was about to make another move, but his face changed slightly at the sight of the oddity.
Just then...
A terrifying bolt of black lightning pierced the sky.
A "benefit" that every deceiver of the universe naturally gets.
The Heavenly Punishment from Dao.
The God of Light hadn’t even had a chance to react, and his consciousness was crushed.
Strictly speaking...
The advent of the God of Light is not considered a deception.
On the one hand, he is essentially responding to the Heavenly Dao of the Big World, and on the other hand, the Upper Three Realms is a higher-level space that can fully accommodate his existence.
The problem is...
He just went overboard, threatening the normal operation of this level of space.
If it were native beings, it wouldn’t have amounted to deceiving the heavens.
But he is not.
The intervention of the Will of Heaven, naturally, was a matter of course.
The consciousness of the God of Light was crushed by the Heavenly Dao’s punishment, and Prajna breathed a sigh of relief.
He has no choice...
This enemy was unexpectedly strong.
But now...
None of that was a problem anymore.
Without saying a word, Prajna turned around with a cold gaze towards Li Jing, who was frozen by the Heavenly Dao’s punishment.
Their eyes met, and Li Jing casually threw away a fierce tiger whose neck he had broken, laughed, and clapped his hands.
"It’s about time, I should be going."
Upon hearing this, Prajna responded flatly.
"You... cannot leave."
"Why?"
Li Jing tilted his head and asked.
"Didn’t you encourage me to leave at first? Now you want me to stay?"
"No need for further words, you must stay today."
Prajna coldly replied, he reached out his large hand under the power of the separate world, casting a shadow that blocked out the sun, sealing everything.
Seeing this, Li Jing sighed lightly.
"You forced me into this."
As he spoke, he took out a small stone that Linglong had secretly given him from his pocket.
With a flip of his hand...
The Zhenshi Monument appeared.
In an instant...
Prajna’s separate world was suppressed.
The unreasonable power of the prehistoric treasure was fully displayed.
Prajna’s face changed instantly.
He didn’t expect Li Jing to possess such a divine object.
Down below...
Li Jing pulled up his status bar.
Add points!
Heart Rules the World, maxed out!
After that burst of killing just now, he levelled up exactly 100 levels.
Enough to max out Heart Rules The World.
Adding to the skill, he slowly closed his eyes.
All of a sudden, a strange heat enveloped the whole world.
Prajna, who had just changed color, sensed it and hurriedly shouted.
"Stop!"
"Too late."
As his indifferent voice rang out, in the next moment, endless Phoenix Heavenly Fire exploded.
End of Chapter
