As the sound arose, Shui Miao and the others suddenly felt their bodies become weightless, and all previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go check it out…”
“Okay!”
Shui Miao and the others quickly flew into the air. With their spiritual senses, they immediately detected Xuan Kong’er’s location.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The four of them immediately flew toward him.
Above the Buddhist pagoda, cymbal sounds echoed continuously. Xuan Kong’er, hiding his presence, had tried several times to approach the pagoda, but each time the loud sounds disrupted his focus, forcing him to reveal himself before launching another assault on the pagoda.
He sensed the old monk was hiding inside the pagoda among the clouds.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above Lingcheng, observing the situation cautiously without rashly joining the battle.
As Xuan Kong’er attacked the pagoda, his “Myriad Evil Primordial Demon Banner” continuously emitted thick black gas. This gas was the essence of all evils—once someone was contaminated by it, their thoughts would warp, giving rise to evil intentions and quickly leading to spiritual corruption.
Additionally, Xuan Kong’er’s “Soul-Confusing Mirror” was flashing in all directions, deflecting talismans and spells.
After unleashing his full power, Xuan Kong’er’s magical abilities indeed proved formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuan Kong’er to become more cautious.
Suddenly, Xuan Kong’er’s body trembled and split into two. One half continued attacking the pagoda, while the other, holding the “Myriad Evil Primordial Demon Banner” and the “Soul-Confusing Mirror,” confronted Shui Miao and the others. “Shui Miao, you’ve got guts! Dare to come out here to seek your death?”
“Xuan Kong’er, you’ve got guts too, daring to cause trouble in the Western Paradise?”
As the sound echoed, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and see…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the sky, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuan Kong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the sound of cymbals rose and fell. Xuan Kong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times but was each time disrupted by the loud noises, causing his soul to tremble. After revealing himself, he once again charged at the pagoda!
It seemed as though the old monk was hiding within the cloud-piercing pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the spiritual city, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or blindly join the battle.
As Xuan Kong’er charged at the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted rolling black smoke—this was the essence of myriad evils. Once tainted by it, one’s thoughts would change, evil would arise, and one would quickly fall into demonic madness.
Moreover, Xuan Kong’er’s Soul-Dazing Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuan Kong’er exerted his full strength, his magical power was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuan Kong’er to hold back.
Suddenly, Xuan Kong’er’s body trembled and split into two. One continued to charge at the pagoda, while the other held the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Dazing Mirror, confronting Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! Still daring to come out and seek death?”
“Xuan Kong’er, you’re not lacking in courage either, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not inferior to Xuan Kong’er in the slightest.
Hearing this, Xuan Kong’er roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I’ve conquered the Three Realms, why should I fear a bald monk? You all think he can save you? Fine, then let me destroy you and show him the might of Xuan Kong’er!”
Xuan Kong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the vast spiritual city split open, revealing a massive chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons appeared, turning the sky above the spiritual city into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of an Immortal Venerable, and countless with the cultivation level of an Immortal Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep in the universe, not in human form, nor were they the demons of the demon realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons invade our spiritual city, let the Buddhas unleash their wrath and restore the city’s former glory!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Ksitigarbha, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra body to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire spiritual city shook, as countless Buddhas rose into the sky, clashing with the demons and monsters, turning the city into a chaotic battlefield, dark and sunless!
“Shui Miao, why aren’t you helping now? What are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you face is merely his avatar, do not fear him. His true body is here with me, quickly act to restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with brilliance, the beads of his rosary glowing, and a thick yellow book appeared in his hand.
“In such a battle, if we still hide, we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush, as long as a spear, entirely green, exuding an overwhelming righteous aura.
Although Shui Miao’s artifact was destroyed, the others’ artifacts were still intact.
These were their life-bound artifacts.
“Everyone, I will enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging to the size of a small hill, then he loudly recited the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder. After the recitation, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had endless energy.
“Truth is not clear without debate, right and wrong are naturally in the hearts of the people. You demons, awaken quickly and restore the clarity of the heavenly will…”
Wenchang Dijun waved his brush in the air, writing magnificent chapters and drawing a green talisman, which he hurled towards the swarming demons. The talisman grew larger as it flew, striking many demons. The demons, tainted by the talisman’s aura, trembled and immediately awakened, their malevolence dissipating, each now with a heart of heavenly clarity, turning their spears to fight alongside the Buddhas, exterminating the demons.
“Incredible!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of Yuancheng, was not to be outdone, immediately activating the city’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain fell over the spiritual city, the holy water causing the demons to writhe in agony as if burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, the spiritual city quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was staring down Xuan Kong’er’s avatar…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but now he was empty-handed, without any artifact, how could he act?
His good artifacts were all destroyed, even the Time-Protecting Bead was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuan Kong’er!?
Xuan Kong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of myriad evils…
His Soul-Dazing Mirror, however, remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao, ready to act the moment Shui Miao moved.
Forging an artifact on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used the Soul-Devouring Power to attack, but after escaping into the sun, the Soul-Devouring Power was annihilated by the intense solar energy.
Now, Shui Miao could only use pure solar energy.
“Shui Miao, act quickly, what you face is merely an avatar, you can seize the opportunity to snatch his acquired spiritual artifact, reforge it, and thus we can stand firm and undefeated.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly responded, “Elder, I have no artifacts, only magical power. His artifacts are formidable, I fear I cannot match him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace, even if I could seize the acquired spiritual artifact, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong, you can use the fire of spiritual will to attack him.”
For the sake of the monks of the spiritual city, the old monk had no choice but to impart the supreme Buddhist method of the fire of spiritual will to Shui Miao. Receiving the information, Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he instantly memorized the method, quickly trying to summon the fire of spiritual will as taught by the old monk…
The fire of spiritual will is an intangible fire, the supreme kind of flame.
The fire of spiritual will depends on spiritual power; the stronger the spiritual power, the more formidable the fire.
Shui Miao, the Saint King of Yin-Yang Forging, possessed immense spiritual power, only slightly less than Xuan Kong’er’s.
Now, Shui Miao was to use his full strength to deal with Xuan Kong’er’s avatar, which was naturally within his capability.
Shui Miao looked at Xuan Kong’er’s avatar, focusing his will, and soon, the avatar suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Dazing Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also caught fire instantly…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The fire of spiritual will thrives on intense concentration.
As Shui Miao summoned the fire of spiritual will, the old monk also launched a counterattack. From the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuan Kong’er, who hastily dodged, unable to tend to his avatar.
“Damn it, damn it!”
With the demon army from the void planet hindered, his avatar attacked by Shui Miao, and himself suppressed by unidentified Buddhas, Xuan Kong’er was furious, never expecting that even with his full strength, he would be forced into such chaos!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good…”
Xuan Kong’er suddenly felt a shock, sensing that Shui Miao’s fire of spiritual will had suddenly increased several times in power. His avatar and artifacts, from the inside out, were all being incinerated, and it wouldn’t be long before the avatar was burned away, and the artifact spirits within were completely annihilated!
It turned out that after Shui Miao mastered the fire of spiritual will, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the realm of consciousness, unleashing a force that increased the fire of spiritual will several times, instantly surpassing Xuan Kong’er!
“Whoosh!”
In desperation, Xuan Kong’er quickly retreated, merging with his avatar to confront Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuan Kong’er retreated, a sudden thunderclap rang out, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chong Yuanzi is here…”
Chong Yuanzi, the Thunder Department’s Dharma Lord, after eliminating all the puppets in the immortal realm and collecting most of their primordial spirits, rushed to the Western Heaven to join the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was like sending charcoal in snowy weather, with everything ready and the east wind blowing.
Caught off guard by the lightning strike, Xuan Kong’er’s body was momentarily numbed.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain blade, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuan Kong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Dazing Mirror. The blade, of unknown quality, after the old monk’s lightning-fast ten slashes, actually shattered Xuan Kong’er’s Time-Protecting Bead (an acquired spiritual artifact)!
Immediately, the old monk transmitted his thoughts, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly focus the fire of spiritual will to incinerate the Soul-Dazing Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately concentrated all the fire of spiritual will on Xuan Kong’er’s Soul-Dazing Mirror, which, under the incineration, suddenly turned into a fluid substance, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this fluid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed, and he quickly moved to seize it…
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was this the conduct of a monk, to seize the material I had incinerated from an acquired spiritual artifact?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the primal fluid of the acquired spiritual artifact, the old monk gave no explanation, directly disappearing in a flash.
Xuan Kong’er, having regained his senses and magical power from the numbness, also flashed away, retreating a hundred meters.
Hearing this, Xuan Kong’er roared furiously, “The Western Paradise is nothing but crap to me! I’ve conquered all Three Realms; how could I fear a bald-headed thief-monk? You guys think that monk can save you? Fine then, let me destroy you all and show you my power!”
Xuan Kong’er had another ultimate move!
Suddenly, the sky above the massive Lingcheng cracked open, revealing a colossal rift tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the rift, stars shimmered, and countless demonic beasts poured through. Even great dragons flew through the rift, turning the skies over Lingcheng into a paradise for demons.
“Roar!”
“Wuwuwu!”
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
A massive horde of demons, each possessing the cultivation level of a Celestial Sovereign, surged forth, with countless others at the level of Celestial Emperor.
They seemed to come from distant planets deep in the cosmos, not humanoid at all, nor even belonging to the Demon Realm.
“Kill!”
“Demonic fiends have invaded our Lingcheng! Let the Buddhas unleash their wrath, restoring the holy light of Lingcheng of old!”
As the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the air, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuan Kong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the clashing of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuan Kong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times but was each time thrown into disarray by the immense noise. After revealing himself, he once again charged at the pagoda!
It seemed as though the old monk was hiding within the cloud-enveloped pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the spiritual city, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or join the battle blindly.
As Xuan Kong’er assaulted the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted rolling black smoke—this was the essence of myriad evils. Once tainted by it, one’s thoughts would change, evil would arise, and one would quickly fall into demonic madness.
Moreover, Xuan Kong’er’s Soul-Dazing Mirror was also flashing around, leaping and dealing with the talismans.
After Xuan Kong’er exerted his full strength, his magical power was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuan Kong’er to hold back somewhat.
Suddenly, Xuan Kong’er’s body shook, and he split into two. One continued to assault the pagoda, while the other, holding the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Dazing Mirror, confronted Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! Still daring to come out and seek death?”
“Xuan Kong’er, you also have quite the nerve, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not at all inferior to Xuan Kong’er’s.
Hearing this, Xuan Kong’er immediately roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I’ve already conquered the Three Realms, why should I fear a bald-headed thief monk? You all think he can save you, very well, then let me destroy you and show him the might of Xuan Kong’er!”
Xuan Kong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the vast sky above the spiritual city split open, revealing a massive chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic monsters flew over, even dragons appeared, turning the sky above the spiritual city into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of an Immortal Venerable, and countless with the cultivation of an Immortal Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep within the universe, not in human form, nor even the demons of the demon realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons invade our spiritual city, let the Buddhas unleash their wrath, restore the former Buddha’s light to our city!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Ksitigarbha, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra body to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire spiritual city was shaken, densely packed, countless Buddhas soared into the sky, clashing with the demonic horde, instantly plunging the city into chaos, darkening the sun and moon!
“Shui Miao, why are you still not helping, what are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you see before you is merely his avatar, do not fear him, his true body is here with me, quickly act to contain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with brilliance, the beads of his Dharma glowed, and in his hand appeared a thick yellow book.
“In such a great battle, if we still hide, then we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush, which resembled a spear, entirely green, exuding an overwhelming righteous aura.
Although Shui Miao’s magical treasures were destroyed, everyone else’s treasures were still intact.
These were their life-bound treasures.
“Everyone, I will help you enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging, turning into a small mountain in an instant, then loudly reciting the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder and louder. After the recitation, Shui Miao and all those with a righteous heart felt their strength increase, as if they had inexhaustible energy.
“Truth is not clear without debate, right and wrong naturally reside in the hearts of people, you demons, quickly awaken, restore the clarity of heaven’s will…”
Wenchang Dijun waved his Wenchang brush in the air, writing magnificent chapters, and drew a green talisman, directly attacking the myriad demons in the sky. The talisman grew larger and larger, striking many demons. The demons, tainted by the talisman’s aura, shook and immediately regained clarity. Once awakened, their malevolence was dispelled, each now possessed a heart clear of heaven’s will, turning their spears to fight alongside the Buddhas, exterminating the demons.
“Impressive!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of Yuancheng, was not to be outdone, immediately activating Yuancheng’s town treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain fell over the spiritual city, these raindrops infinitely pure, causing the demons to feel as if they were burning, in unbearable pain.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, the spiritual city quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was facing Xuan Kong’er’s avatar…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but now he was empty-handed, without any magical treasures, how could he act?
His good treasures were all destroyed, even the Time-Protecting Dharma Beads were gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuan Kong’er!?
Xuan Kong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of myriad evils…
His Soul-Dazing Mirror, however, remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao, ready to act the moment Shui Miao moved.
Forging a magical treasure on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used the Soul-Devouring Power to attack, but because he had fled into the sun, the Soul-Devouring Power had been annihilated by the intense solar spiritual energy.
Now, Shui Miao only had pure solar spiritual power to use.
“Shui Miao, quickly act, what stands before you is merely an avatar, you can seize the opportunity to snatch his acquired spiritual treasure, reforge it, and thus we can firmly stand undefeated.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, quickly responding, “Elder, I have no magical treasures, only spiritual power, his treasures are formidable, I fear I cannot match him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace, even if I could snatch the acquired spiritual treasure, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong, you can completely use the fire of spiritual thought to attack him.”
For the sake of the monks of the spiritual city, the old monk had no choice but to immediately impart the supreme method of using the fire of spiritual thought from Buddhism into Shui Miao’s consciousness. Shui Miao received the information, his heart stirred, instantly memorizing the method, and quickly tried to activate the fire of spiritual thought as taught by the old monk…
The fire of spiritual thought is an intangible fire, also the supreme kind of fire.
The fire of spiritual thought depends on spiritual power; the stronger the spiritual power, the more formidable the fire of spiritual thought.
Shui Miao was a Yin-Yang Forging Sage King, his spiritual power was very strong, only slightly inferior to Xuan Kong’er’s.
Now, Shui Miao was going all out to deal with Xuan Kong’er’s avatar, which was naturally within his capability.
Shui Miao looked at Xuan Kong’er’s avatar, activated his intent, and not long after, Xuan Kong’er’s avatar suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Dazing Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also instantly caught fire…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The fire of spiritual thought is most effective when the spirit is highly concentrated.
The moment Shui Miao activated the fire of spiritual thought, the old monk also suddenly launched a counterattack, from the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuan Kong’er, who hurriedly dodged, unable to care for his avatar.
“Damn it, damn it!”
The demon army from the void planet was hindered, the avatar was attacked by Shui Miao, and he himself was suppressed by unidentified Buddhas, Xuan Kong’er was furious, never expecting that even with full force, he was still being forced into a frantic state!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! Not good…”
Xuan Kong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, sensing that Shui Miao’s fire of spiritual thought had suddenly increased several times in power, the avatar and the treasure, from the inside out, were all being forged, it wouldn’t be long before the avatar was melted, the spirit within the treasure completely annihilated!
Originally, after Shui Miao became proficient with the fire of spiritual thought, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the realm of consciousness, unleashing their power, causing the fire of spiritual thought to surge several times, instantly surpassing Xuan Kong’er!
“Whoosh!”
In a moment of desperation, Xuan Kong’er quickly teleported back, merging with his avatar to deal with Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuan Kong’er teleported back, suddenly, a thunderclap sounded, and his just merged body was enveloped in a large bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chong Yuanzi is here…”
The Thunder Department’s Dharma Venerable Chong Yuanzi, after eliminating all the puppets in the immortal realm, collected most of the puppets’ primordial spirits, and rushed to the Western Heaven to assist in the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was undoubtedly timely, like sending charcoal in snowy weather, everything was ready and the east wind had arrived.
Xuan Kong’er, caught off guard, was struck by the lightning, his body momentarily numbed.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, holding a golden chain sword, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuan Kong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Dazing Mirror. The sword, of unknown quality, after the old monk’s lightning-fast ten slashes, actually shattered Xuan Kong’er’s Time-Protecting Dharma Beads (an acquired spiritual treasure)!
Immediately, the old monk transmitted his thoughts, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly concentrate the fire of spiritual thought to forge the Soul-Dazing Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately focused all the fire of spiritual thought on Xuan Kong’er’s Soul-Dazing Mirror, which, under the forging of the fire of spiritual thought, suddenly turned into a fluid liquid, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this liquid, the old monk’s eyes immediately gleamed, and with a teleportation, he rushed to seize it…
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked, actually seizing the material I forged from the acquired spiritual treasure, is this the virtue of a monk?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the original liquid of the acquired spiritual treasure, the old monk didn’t say a word, directly teleporting away.
Xuan Kong’er, recovering his senses and power from the numbness, also teleported, directly moving a hundred meters away.
The entire Lingcheng trembled as countless Buddhas soared into the sky, clashing with the demons and monsters, turning the city into a battlefield of chaos, darkening the skies and blotting out the sun and moon!
“Shui Miao, if you don’t help now, when will you!?”
From the towering Buddhist pagoda came the old monk’s desperate cry, “What you see before you is merely his clone—fear him not! His true body is here with me. Quickly, engage him and hold him down!”
“Shui Miao, let’s strike together!”
Tianyi Dejun radiated brilliant light, his magical bead glowing, and in his hand appeared a thick yellow book.
“If we keep hiding in a battle like this, we are nothing but cowards,” said Saint Mother Shuitianyi, who summoned her holy artifact, ready to fight.
Wenchang Dijun nodded and summoned a brush, resembling a spear, entirely green in color, exuding an overwhelming aura of righteousness.
As the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the air, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuankong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the sound of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuankong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times but was each time thrown into disarray by the deafening noise. After revealing himself, he once again charged at the pagoda!
It seemed as though the old monk was hiding within the cloud-covered pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the Spirit City, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or blindly join the battle.
As Xuankong’er assaulted the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted rolling black smoke. This smoke was the essence of all evils; once tainted by it, one’s mind would change, and demonic thoughts would arise, leading to a quick descent into madness.
Moreover, Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuankong’er exerted his full power, his magical prowess was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuankong’er to become more cautious.
Suddenly, Xuankong’er’s body trembled and split into two. One continued to attack the pagoda, while the other, holding the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Bewitching Mirror, confronted Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! Daring to come out and seek death?”
“Xuankong’er, you’re no less brave, daring to cause trouble in the Western Paradise?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not at all inferior to Xuankong’er.
Hearing this, Xuankong’er roared in anger, “The Western Paradise is nothing in my eyes! I’ve conquered the Three Realms, and I fear not a bald-headed thief monk! You all think he can save you? Fine, then let me destroy you and show him the might of Xuankong’er!”
Xuankong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the massive Spirit City split open, revealing a chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons appeared, turning the sky above the Spirit City into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of an Immortal Venerable, and countless with the cultivation of an Immortal Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep in the universe, not humanoid life forms, nor even demons from the demon world.
“Kill!”
“Demons invading our Spirit City, all Buddhas may unleash their wrath, restore the former Buddha light to our city!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Earth Store, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra body to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire Spirit City trembled, as countless Buddhas took to the skies, clashing with the demonic horde, turning the city into a chaotic battlefield, where the sun and moon lost their light!
“Shui Miao, why aren’t you helping now? What are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you see before you is merely his clone, do not fear him, his true body is here with me, quickly act to restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with brilliance, his Dharma Pearl glowing, and in his hand appeared a thick yellow book.
“In such a great battle, if we still hide, then we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush, which resembled a spear, entirely green, exuding an overwhelming righteous aura.
Although Shui Miao’s magical treasures were destroyed, the others’ treasures remained.
These were their life-bound treasures.
“Everyone, I will help you enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging, turning into a small mountain, and then he loudly recited the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder. After the recitation, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had inexhaustible energy.
“Truth is not discerned without debate, right and wrong are naturally in the hearts of the people, you demons, awaken quickly, restore the clarity of the heavenly will…”
Wenchang Dijun wielded his Wenchang Brush, writing magnificent chapters in the air, and drew a green talisman, directly striking at the myriad demons. The talisman grew larger as it flew, hitting many demons. The demons, tainted by the talisman’s aura, trembled and suddenly became clear-headed. Once clear, their malevolence vanished, each now possessing a heart of heavenly clarity, turning their spears to fight alongside the Buddhas, exterminating the demons.
“So powerful!”
Seeing the two city lords exert their might, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of the Source City, was not to be outdone, immediately activating the city’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain fell over the Spirit City, the holy water causing unbearable pain to the demons upon contact, as if they were being burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, the Spirit City’s side quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was staring down Xuankong’er’s clone…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but now he was empty-handed, without any magical treasures, how could he act?
All his good treasures were destroyed, even the Time-Protecting Dharma Pearl was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuankong’er!?
Xuankong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of all evils…
His Soul-Bewitching Mirror remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao, ready to act the moment Shui Miao moved.
Forging a treasure on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used his Soul-Devouring Power to attack, but after fleeing into the sun, the Soul-Devouring Power was completely obliterated by the intense yang energy within the sun.
Now, Shui Miao could only use his pure yang energy.
“Shui Miao, act quickly, what stands before you is merely a clone, you can seize the opportunity to snatch his Postnatal Spiritual Treasure, reforge it, and thus we can firmly stand undefeated.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly responded, “Elder, I have no treasures, only my energy, his treasures are formidable, I fear I cannot match him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace, even if I could seize the Postnatal Spiritual Treasure, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong, you can use the Fire of Spiritual Will to attack him.”
For the sake of the Spirit City’s monks, the old monk had no choice but to impart the supreme Buddhist method of using the Fire of Spiritual Will to Shui Miao’s thoughts. Receiving the information, Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he instantly memorized the method, quickly trying to activate the Fire of Spiritual Will as taught by the old monk…
The Fire of Spiritual Will is an invisible flame, the supreme kind of fire.
The Fire of Spiritual Will depends on spiritual power; the stronger the spiritual power, the more potent the Fire of Spiritual Will.
Shui Miao was a Yin-Yang Forging Saint King, with extremely strong spiritual power, only slightly inferior to Xuankong’er.
Now, Shui Miao was to exert his full power to deal with Xuankong’er’s clone, which was naturally within his capabilities.
Shui Miao looked at Xuankong’er’s clone, concentrated his will, and not long after, Xuankong’er’s clone suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Bewitching Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also instantly caught fire…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The Fire of Spiritual Will is most effective when the spirit is highly concentrated.
The moment Shui Miao activated the Fire of Spiritual Will, the old monk also suddenly launched a counterattack, and from the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuankong’er, who hastily dodged, unable to tend to his clone.
“Damn it, damn it!”
The demon army from the void planet was hindered, the clone was attacked by Shui Miao, and he himself was suppressed by an unidentified Buddha. Xuankong’er was furious, never expecting that even with his full power, he would be forced into such a frantic state!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good…”
Xuankong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, sensing that Shui Miao’s Fire of Spiritual Will had suddenly increased several times in power. The clone and the treasure, from the inside out, were all being forged, and it wouldn’t be long before the clone was melted, and the treasure’s spirit was completely annihilated!
It turned out that after Shui Miao became proficient with the Fire of Spiritual Will, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the Realm of Intent, unleashing a force that increased the Fire of Spiritual Will several times over, instantly surpassing Xuankong’er!
“Whoosh!”
In a panic, Xuankong’er quickly teleported back, merging with his clone to confront Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuankong’er teleported back, suddenly, a thunderclap sounded, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, I, Chong Yuanzi, have arrived…”
The Thunder Department’s Dharma Venerable, Chong Yuanzi, after eliminating all the puppets in the immortal realm and collecting most of their primordial spirits, rushed to the Western Paradise to join the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was undoubtedly timely, like adding wings to a tiger.
Xuankong’er, caught off guard by the lightning strike, felt a numbing sensation throughout his body.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain-linked blade, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuankong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The blade, of unknown quality, after the old monk’s lightning-fast ten slashes, actually shattered Xuankong’er’s Time-Protecting Dharma Pearl (a Postnatal Spiritual Treasure)!
Immediately, the old monk sent a telepathic message, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly concentrate the Fire of Spiritual Will to forge the Soul-Bewitching Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately focused all the Fire of Spiritual Will on Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The mirror, forged by the Fire of Spiritual Will, suddenly turned into a fluid substance, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this fluid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed, and he teleported over to seize it…
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was he really going to snatch the material I forged from the Postnatal Spiritual Treasure? Is this the conduct of a monk?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the original fluid of the Postnatal Spiritual Treasure, the old monk didn’t say a word, directly teleporting away.
Xuankong’er, recovering from the numbness, also teleported, directly moving a hundred meters away.
“Everyone, let me empower you!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body rapidly expanding into a small mountain. Then he began reciting the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder and louder. As he chanted, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength surge, as if they had endless energy.
“Truth is clarified through debate; justice resides in the hearts of people. Demons, awaken quickly, and restore the Way of Heaven!”
Wenchang Dijun waved his brush through the air, inscribing brilliant characters and drawing a green talisman. He hurled it toward the swarm of demons. As it flew, the talisman grew larger, striking many demons. Upon contact with the talisman’s energy, the demons shuddered and regained their senses. Their malevolence dissipated, their hearts now aligned with the Way of Heaven. They turned their weapons and fought alongside the Buddhas, slaying evil together.
“Amazing!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Saint Mother Shuitianyi, as the leader of Yuan City, was unwilling to be outdone. She immediately activated the “Life Disc,” Yuan City’s treasure.
Instantly, gentle rain fell from the skies above Lingcheng. The raindrops were pure and holy—contact with them scorched the demons like fire, causing them unbearable pain.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Saint Mother Shuitianyi, the forces of Lingcheng quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil forces.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao faced off against Xuan Kong’er’s clone.
Shui Miao wasn’t unwilling to fight—he was simply weaponless.
As the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the air, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuankong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the sound of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuankong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times but was each time disrupted by the immense noise, causing his soul to tremble. After revealing himself, he once again charged towards the pagoda!
It seemed that the old monk was hiding within the cloud-shrouded pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the spiritual city, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or blindly join the battle.
As Xuankong’er charged at the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted rolling black smoke. This smoke was the essence of all evils; once tainted by it, one’s thoughts would change, evil would arise, and one would quickly fall into demonic possession.
Moreover, Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuankong’er exerted his full strength, his magical power was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuankong’er to hold back.
Suddenly, Xuankong’er’s body trembled, splitting into two. One continued to charge at the pagoda, while the other held the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Bewitching Mirror, confronting Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! Daring to come out and seek death?”
“Xuankong’er, you are also quite bold, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not inferior to Xuankong’er in the slightest.
Hearing this, Xuankong’er immediately roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I have conquered the Three Realms, how could I fear a bald-headed thief monk? You all think he can save you, very well, then let me destroy you and show him the means of Xuankong’er!”
Xuankong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the vast spiritual city split open, revealing a massive chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons appeared, turning the sky above the spiritual city into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of an Immortal Venerable, and countless with the cultivation level of an Immortal Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep in the universe, not in human form, nor even the demons of the demon realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons invading our spiritual city, all Buddhas may unleash their killing intent, restore the former Buddha’s light to our city!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Earth Store, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra body to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire spiritual city was shaken, densely packed, countless Buddhas soared into the sky, clashing with the demons, turning the city into a chaotic battlefield, darkening the sun and moon!
“Shui Miao, why aren’t you helping now, what are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you see before you is merely his clone, do not fear him, his true body is here with me, quickly act to restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with brilliance, the beads of light surged, and a thick yellow book appeared in his hand.
“In such a great battle, if we still hide, then we are cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush, which resembled a spear, entirely green, exuding an overwhelming righteous aura.
Although Shui Miao’s magical treasures were destroyed, everyone else’s treasures were still intact.
These were their life-bound treasures.
“Everyone, I will help you enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging, turning into a small mountain, then loudly recited the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder. After the recitation, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had inexhaustible energy.
“Truth is not clear without debate, right and wrong are naturally in the hearts of the people, you demons, quickly awaken, restore the will of heaven…”
Wenchang Dijun waved the Wenchang Brush, writing magnificent chapters in the air, and drew a green talisman, directly striking at the myriad demons. The talisman grew larger as it flew, hitting many demons. The demons, tainted by the talisman’s aura, trembled and immediately awakened. Once awakened, their malevolence was eliminated, each possessing a heart aligned with the will of heaven, turning their spears to fight alongside the Buddhas, exterminating the demons.
“So powerful!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of Yuancheng, was not to be outdone, immediately activating the city’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a light rain fell over the spiritual city, the holy water causing the demons unbearable pain upon contact, as if burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, the spiritual city quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was staring down Xuankong’er’s clone…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but now he was empty-handed, without any magical treasures, how could he act?
His good treasures were all destroyed, even the Time Protection Pearl was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuankong’er!?
Xuankong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of all evils…
His Soul-Bewitching Mirror remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao, ready to act the moment Shui Miao moved.
Forging a treasure on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used the Soul Devouring Power to attack, but after fleeing into the sun, the Soul Devouring Power was obliterated by the intense solar energy.
Now, Shui Miao only had pure solar energy to utilize.
“Shui Miao, act quickly, what stands before you is merely a clone, you can seize the opportunity to snatch his acquired spiritual treasure, reforge it into a treasure, thus ensuring our invincibility.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, quickly responding, “Elder, I have no treasures, only energy, his treasures are formidable, I fear I cannot match him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace, even if I could seize the acquired spiritual treasure, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong, you can use the fire of spiritual thought to attack him.”
For the sake of the monks of the spiritual city, the old monk had no choice but to impart the supreme method of the Buddhist fire of spiritual thought to Shui Miao. Receiving the information, Shui Miao’s heart stirred, instantly memorizing the method, and quickly began to activate the fire of thought as taught by the old monk…
The fire of thought is an intangible flame, the supreme kind of fire.
The fire of thought depends on spiritual power; the stronger the spiritual power, the more powerful the fire of thought.
Shui Miao, the Saint King of Yin-Yang Forging, possessed immense spiritual power, only slightly less than Xuankong’er.
Now, Shui Miao was to exert his full strength to deal with Xuankong’er’s clone, which was naturally within his capabilities.
Shui Miao looked at Xuankong’er’s clone, focusing his thoughts, and soon, the clone’s body suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Bewitching Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also caught fire instantly…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The fire of thought, valued for its intense concentration.
The moment Shui Miao activated the fire of thought, the old monk also launched a counterattack. From the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuankong’er, forcing him to dodge, unable to attend to his clone.
“Damn it, damn it!”
The demon army from the void planet was hindered, the clone was attacked by Shui Miao, and he himself was suppressed by unidentified Buddhas. Xuankong’er was furious, never expecting that even with his full strength, he would be forced into such chaos!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! Not good…”
Xuankong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, sensing that Shui Miao’s fire of thought had suddenly increased several times in power. The clone and the treasures, from the inside out, were all being burned, unable to hold out much longer. The clone would be incinerated, and the spirit within the treasures would be completely annihilated!
It turned out that after Shui Miao mastered the fire of thought, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the realm of consciousness, causing the fire of thought to surge several times, instantly surpassing Xuankong’er!
“Whoosh!”
In desperation, Xuankong’er quickly retreated, merging with his clone to confront Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuankong’er retreated, a sudden thunderclap rang out, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive lightning strike!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chong Yuanzi is here…”
The Thunder Ministry’s Dharma Lord Chong Yuanzi, after eliminating all the puppets in the immortal realm and collecting most of their souls, rushed to the Western Heaven to aid in the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was like sending charcoal in snowy weather, everything was ready, and the east wind had come.
Xuankong’er, caught off guard by the lightning strike, felt a numbing sensation throughout his body.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain knife, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuankong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The knife, of unknown quality, after the old monk’s lightning-fast ten slashes, actually shattered Xuankong’er’s Time Protection Pearl (an acquired spiritual treasure)!
Immediately, the old monk transmitted his thoughts, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly concentrate the fire of thought to burn the Soul-Bewitching Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately focused all the fire of thought on Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The mirror, burned by the fire of thought, suddenly turned into a lively liquid, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this liquid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed, and with a flash, he rushed to seize it…
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was this the conduct of a monk, to seize the materials of the acquired spiritual treasure I had burned?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the original liquid of the acquired spiritual treasure, the old monk gave no explanation, directly disappearing in a flash.
Xuankong’er, recovering his senses and energy from the numbness, also flashed away, directly retreating a hundred meters.
The “Myriad Evil Primordial Demon Banner” continued to emit evil energy.
His “Soul-Confusing Mirror” remained still, seemingly on guard against Shui Miao. If Shui Miao moved, he would strike.
There was no time to forge a new weapon on the spot.
Shui Miao could have used his Spirit-Devouring Power, but during his escape into the sun, the intense yang energy had completely erased it.
Now, Shui Miao could only rely on his pure yang energy.
“Shui Miao, quickly attack! The one before you is only a clone. Seize the opportunity to take his acquired spiritual treasures and reforging them into weapons. This way, we will ensure victory.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
When the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the air, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuankong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the sound of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuankong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times, but each time he was thrown into disarray by the deafening noise. After revealing himself, he once again charged at the pagoda!
It seemed as though the old monk was hiding within the cloud-shrouded pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the Spirit City, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or join the battle blindly.
As Xuankong’er charged at the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted rolling black smoke. This smoke was the essence of all evil; once tainted by it, one’s mind would change, evil thoughts would arise, and they would soon fall into demonic madness.
Moreover, Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuankong’er exerted his full strength, his magical power was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuankong’er to become more cautious.
Suddenly, Xuankong’er’s body trembled and split into two. One continued to charge at the pagoda, while the other held the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Bewitching Mirror, confronting Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! You still dare to come out and seek death?”
“Xuankong’er, you are also quite bold, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not at all inferior to Xuankong’er.
Hearing this, Xuankong’er immediately roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I have conquered the Three Realms, and I fear not a bald-headed thief monk! You all think he can save you? Fine, fine, fine! Let me destroy you and show him the power of Xuankong’er!”
Xuankong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the massive Spirit City split open, revealing a chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons soared through, turning the sky above the Spirit City into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of a Celestial Venerable, and countless with the cultivation level of a Celestial Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep within the universe; they were not humanoid life forms, nor were they demons from the demonic realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons have entered our Spirit City! All Buddhas, unleash your wrath and restore the Buddha’s light to our city!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World Honored One, Earth Store, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra Body to vanquish the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire Spirit City trembled. Countless Buddhas rose into the sky, clashing with the demons and monsters, plunging the city into chaos, where the sun and moon lost their light!
“Shui Miao, why are you still not helping? What are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you see before you is merely his clone. Do not fear him. His true body is here with me. Quickly, act and restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with radiant light, and the beads in his hand glowed. He then produced a thick yellow book.
“In such a great battle, if we continue to hide, we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush. This brush, resembling a spear, was entirely green, exuding an overwhelming aura of righteousness.
Although Shui Miao’s artifact was destroyed, the others’ artifacts were still intact.
These were their life-bound artifacts.
“Everyone, let me enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging to the size of a small mountain. He then began to chant the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder and louder. After the chant, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had an endless supply of energy.
“Truth is not discerned without debate, and justice lies within the hearts of the people. You demons, awaken quickly and restore the will of heaven…”
Wenchang Dijun wielded his brush, writing magnificent chapters in the air and drawing a green talisman that shot towards the swarming demons. The talisman grew larger and larger, striking many demons. Once tainted by the talisman’s aura, the demons trembled and immediately regained their senses. With their malevolence dispelled, they each harbored a heart aligned with the will of heaven, turning their spears to fight alongside the Buddhas, vanquishing the demons.
“Impressive!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of Yuancheng, was not to be outdone. She immediately activated Yuancheng’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain began to fall over the Spirit City. This holy rain caused the demons unbearable pain upon contact, as if they were being burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Spirit City’s side quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was staring down Xuankong’er’s clone…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but he was empty-handed, without any artifact. How could he fight?
His good artifacts were all destroyed, even the Time-Protecting Bead was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuankong’er!?
Xuankong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of evil…
His Soul-Bewitching Mirror remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao. The moment Shui Miao moved, it would act.
Forging an artifact on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used his Soul-Devouring Power to attack, but after escaping into the sun, the Soul-Devouring Power was obliterated by the sun’s intense yang energy.
Now, Shui Miao could only rely on his pure yang energy.
“Shui Miao, act quickly. What stands before you is merely a clone. Seize the opportunity to take his acquired spiritual artifact and reforge it. This way, we can firmly stand undefeated.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly responded, “Elder, I have no artifacts, only my energy. His artifacts are powerful, and I fear I cannot match him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace. Even if I could seize his acquired spiritual artifact, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong. You can use the Fire of Will to attack him.”
For the sake of the Spirit City’s monks, the old monk had no choice but to impart the Buddha’s supreme method of using the Fire of Will to Shui Miao. Receiving the information, Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he instantly memorized the method. He quickly followed the old monk’s teachings, attempting to summon the Fire of Will…
The Fire of Will is an intangible flame, the supreme kind of fire.
The Fire of Will depends on spiritual power; the stronger the spiritual power, the more potent the Fire of Will.
Shui Miao, the Yin-Yang Forging Sage King, possessed immense spiritual power, only slightly inferior to Xuankong’er.
Now, Shui Miao was to exert his full strength to deal with Xuankong’er’s clone, which was naturally within his capabilities.
Shui Miao stared at Xuankong’er’s clone, focusing his will. Before long, Xuankong’er’s clone suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Bewitching Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils were also instantly set ablaze…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The Fire of Will thrives on intense concentration.
The moment Shui Miao summoned the Fire of Will, the old monk also launched a counterattack. From the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, forcing Xuankong’er to dodge, leaving his clone unattended.
“Damn it, damn it!”
With the demon army from the void planet hindered, his clone attacked by Shui Miao, and himself suppressed by an unknown Buddha, Xuankong’er was furious. He never expected that even with his full strength, he would be thrown into such disarray!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good…”
Xuankong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat as he sensed Shui Miao’s Fire of Will suddenly increase in power severalfold. His clone and artifact were being burned from the inside out, and it wouldn’t be long before the clone was incinerated, and the artifact’s spirit completely destroyed!
It turned out that after mastering the Fire of Will, Shui Miao immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the Realm of Intent, causing the Fire of Will to surge several times, surpassing Xuankong’er in an instant!
“Whoosh!”
In desperation, Xuankong’er quickly retreated, merging with his clone to confront Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuankong’er retreated, a sudden thunderclap rang out, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chongyuanzi is here…”
Chongyuanzi, the Thunder Ministry’s Dharma Lord, after eliminating all the puppets in the celestial realm and collecting most of their souls, rushed to the Western Heaven to aid in the battle.
Chongyuanzi’s arrival at this moment was like sending charcoal in snowy weather, providing the final piece needed for success.
Caught off guard by the lightning strike, Xuankong’er’s body went numb.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain blade, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuankong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The blade’s quality was unknown, but after the old monk swiftly struck ten times, he managed to shatter Xuankong’er’s Time-Protecting Bead (an acquired spiritual artifact)!
Immediately, the old monk transmitted his thoughts, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly focus the Fire of Will to forge the Soul-Bewitching Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately concentrated all his Fire of Will on Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror. As the mirror was forged by the Fire of Will, it suddenly transformed into a fluid substance, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this fluid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed, and he quickly moved to seize it…
“What is this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was this the behavior of a monk, to seize the material of an acquired spiritual artifact that I had forged?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the original fluid of the acquired spiritual artifact, the old monk didn’t say a word and instantly disappeared.
Xuankong’er, recovering from his numbness and regaining his energy, also quickly retreated, disappearing a hundred meters away.
“Fool! Your spiritual power is immense. You can use your Mind Flame to attack him.”
With no other choice, the old monk transmitted the ultimate technique of the Mind Flame to Shui Miao. Shui Miao absorbed the knowledge quickly and began to summon the Mind Flame as instructed.
The Mind Flame was an invisible flame, the most supreme of all.
Its power depended entirely on one’s spiritual strength—the stronger the mind, the more devastating the flame.
As a Saint King of Yin-Yang Forging, Shui Miao’s spiritual power was formidable, only slightly inferior to Xuan Kong’er’s.
Now, summoning his full strength to fight Xuan Kong’er’s clone was certainly within his capabilities.
As Shui Miao focused his thoughts, soon flames erupted from Xuan Kong’er’s clone!
The “Soul-Confusing Mirror” and the “Myriad Evil Primordial Demon Banner” caught fire as well…
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The Mind Flame required intense concentration.
At the moment Shui Miao unleashed his Mind Flame, the old monk also launched a counterattack. From the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing fiercely at Xuan Kong’er, forcing him to dodge and leaving his clone unguarded.
“Cursed! Cursed!”
With his demonic army blocked, his clone under attack by Shui Miao, and an unknown Buddha pressing him hard, Xuan Kong’er was furious. He never expected to be driven into chaos despite his full assault!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good!”
When the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the others quickly soared into the air, and with their divine senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuankong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the sound of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuankong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times, but each time he was disrupted by the deafening noise, forcing him to reveal himself and charge at the pagoda once more!
It seemed that the old monk was hiding within the cloud-shrouded pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the spiritual city, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or join the battle blindly.
As Xuankong’er charged at the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted billowing black smoke. This smoke was the essence of all evils; once tainted by it, one’s mind would change, and evil thoughts would arise, leading to a swift descent into madness.
Moreover, Xuankong’er’s Soul-Distracting Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuankong’er exerted his full power, his magical prowess was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuankong’er to become more cautious.
Suddenly, Xuankong’er’s body trembled and split into two. One continued to charge at the pagoda, while the other held the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Distracting Mirror, confronting Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! You still dare to come out and seek death?”
“Xuankong’er, you are also quite bold, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not at all inferior to Xuankong’er.
Hearing this, Xuankong’er immediately roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I have conquered the Three Realms, how could I fear a bald-headed thief monk? You all think he can save you, very well, then let me destroy you and show him the power of Xuankong’er!”
Xuankong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the vast spiritual city split open, revealing a massive chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons appeared, turning the sky above the spiritual city into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Woo, woo, woo…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of an Immortal Venerable, and even more with the cultivation level of an Immortal Emperor, flew over.
They seemed to come from planets deep within the universe, their forms not human, nor even the demons of the demonic realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons have invaded our spiritual city, all Buddhas may unleash their wrath, restore the former glory of our spiritual city!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Earth Store, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Diamond Body, to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire spiritual city trembled, countless Buddhas soared into the sky, clashing with the demonic horde, turning the city into a chaotic battlefield, where the sun and moon lost their light!
“Shui Miao, why aren’t you helping now? What are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you see before you is merely his clone, do not fear him, his true body is here with me, quickly act to restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with radiance, the beads of light surged, and in his hand appeared a thick yellow book.
“If we continue to hide in such a great battle, we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush, which resembled a spear, entirely green, exuding an overwhelming aura of righteousness.
Although Shui Miao’s magical treasures were destroyed, everyone else’s treasures remained.
These were their life-bound treasures.
“Everyone, I will help you enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging, turning into a small mountain, and then he began to loudly recite the Dao De Jing, his voice growing louder and louder. After the recitation, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had an endless supply of energy.
“Truth is not discerned without debate, right and wrong are naturally in the hearts of the people, you demons, awaken quickly, restore the clarity of heaven’s will…”
Wenchang Dijun waved the Wenchang Brush in the air, writing magnificent chapters, and drew a green talisman, directly striking at the myriad demons. The talisman grew larger and larger, hitting many demons, who, upon being tainted by the talisman’s aura, trembled and immediately awakened. Once awakened, their malevolence dissipated, each now possessing a heart of heaven’s will, turning their spears to fight alongside the Buddhas, exterminating the demons.
“So powerful!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of the Source City, was not to be outdone, immediately activating the city’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain began to fall over the spiritual city, the holy water causing the demons to writhe in agony as if burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, the spiritual city quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was staring down Xuankong’er’s clone…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but now he was empty-handed, without any magical treasures, how could he act?
His good treasures were all destroyed, even the Time-Protecting Bead was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuankong’er!?
Xuankong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of all evils…
His Soul-Distracting Mirror remained still, as if guarding against Shui Miao, ready to act the moment Shui Miao moved.
Forging a new treasure on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used the Soul-Devouring Power to attack, but after fleeing into the sun, the Soul-Devouring Power was destroyed by the intense solar energy.
Now, Shui Miao could only rely on his pure solar energy.
“Shui Miao, act quickly, what stands before you is merely a clone, you can seize the opportunity to snatch his acquired spiritual treasure, reforge it, and thus we can stand firmly in an invincible position.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, quickly responding, “Elder, I have no treasures, only my energy. His treasures are powerful, I fear I cannot defeat him! Moreover, I no longer have a forge, even if I could snatch his acquired spiritual treasure, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong, you can use the Fire of Will to attack him.”
For the sake of the monks of the spiritual city, the old monk had no choice but to impart the supreme Buddhist method of the Fire of Will to Shui Miao. Shui Miao received the information, his heart stirred, and he instantly memorized the method, quickly following the old monk’s teachings, attempting to activate the Fire of Will…
The Fire of Will is an intangible flame, the supreme kind of fire.
The Fire of Will depends on spiritual power; the stronger the spiritual power, the more powerful the Fire of Will.
Shui Miao was a Yin-Yang Forging Saint King, his spiritual power was extremely strong, only slightly weaker than Xuankong’er.
Now, Shui Miao was going all out to deal with Xuankong’er’s clone, which was naturally within his capabilities.
Shui Miao stared at Xuankong’er’s clone, focusing his will, and soon, Xuankong’er’s clone burst into flames!
The Soul-Distracting Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also caught fire instantly…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The Fire of Will is most effective when the spirit is highly concentrated.
The moment Shui Miao activated the Fire of Will, the old monk also launched a counterattack, and from the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuankong’er, forcing him to dodge, unable to care for his clone.
“Damn it, damn it!”
The demonic army from the void planet was blocked, his clone was attacked by Shui Miao, and he himself was suppressed by an unknown Buddha. Xuankong’er was furious, never expecting that even with his full power, he would still be forced into such a chaotic situation!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good…”
Xuankong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, sensing that Shui Miao’s Fire of Will had suddenly increased in power several times over. His clone and treasures were being burned from the inside out, and it wouldn’t be long before the clone was incinerated, and the spirit within the treasures was completely destroyed!
It turned out that after Shui Miao mastered the Fire of Will, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the realm of consciousness, unleashing a force that multiplied the Fire of Will several times over, surpassing Xuankong’er in an instant!
“Whoosh!”
In desperation, Xuankong’er quickly teleported back, merging with his clone to deal with Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
The moment Xuankong’er teleported back, a sudden thunderclap rang out, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chong Yuanzi is here…”
Chong Yuanzi, the Thunder Department’s Dharma Lord, after eliminating all the puppets in the immortal realm, collected most of their souls and rushed to the Western Heaven to join the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was undoubtedly a timely aid, like a favorable wind in a time of need.
Xuankong’er, caught off guard by the lightning strike, felt a numbing sensation throughout his body.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain blade, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuankong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Distracting Mirror. The blade’s quality was unknown, but after the old monk swiftly slashed ten times, he actually shattered Xuankong’er’s Time-Protecting Bead (an acquired spiritual treasure)!
Immediately, the old monk sent a telepathic message, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly focus the Fire of Will to forge the Soul-Distracting Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately concentrated all the Fire of Will on Xuankong’er’s Soul-Distracting Mirror, which, under the forging of the Fire of Will, suddenly turned into a flowing liquid, spilling onto the ground…
Seeing this liquid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed with excitement, and he teleported over to seize it…
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was he really going to snatch the acquired spiritual treasure material I forged? Is this the conduct of a monk?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the original liquid of the acquired spiritual treasure, the old monk didn’t say a word, directly teleporting away.
Xuankong’er, recovering his senses and energy from the numbness, also teleported, directly moving a hundred meters away.
When the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the air, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuankong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the sound of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuankong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times, but each time he was thrown into disarray by the deafening noise. After revealing himself, he once again charged at the pagoda!
It seemed as though the old monk was hiding within the cloud-shrouded pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the Spirit City, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or blindly join the battle.
As Xuankong’er charged at the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted rolling black smoke. This smoke was the essence of all evils; once tainted by it, one’s mind would change, evil thoughts would arise, and they would quickly fall into demonic madness.
Moreover, Xuankong’er’s Soul-Dazing Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuankong’er exerted his full strength, his magical power was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuankong’er to hold back.
Suddenly, Xuankong’er’s body shook, and he split into two. One continued to charge at the pagoda, while the other held the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Dazing Mirror, confronting Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! You still dare to come out and seek death?”
“Xuankong’er, you also have quite the courage, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not at all inferior to Xuankong’er.
Hearing this, Xuankong’er roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I have conquered the Three Realms, why should I fear a bald-headed thief monk? You all think he can save you? Fine, then let me destroy you and show him the might of Xuankong’er!”
Xuankong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the vast Spirit City split open, revealing a massive chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons emerged, turning the sky above the Spirit City into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of a Celestial Venerable, and countless with the cultivation level of a Celestial Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep within the universe; they were not humanoid, nor were they demons from the demon realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons invading our Spirit City, all Buddhas, unleash your wrath and restore the former glory of our Spirit City!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Earth Store, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra Body to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire Spirit City was in turmoil. Countless Buddhas soared into the sky, clashing with the demonic horde, turning the city into a chaotic battlefield, where the sun and moon lost their light.
“Shui Miao, why are you still hesitating? Now is the time to act!”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical scream echoed: “What you face is merely his avatar. Do not fear him. His true body is here with me. Quickly act and restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body flashed with brilliance, his Dharma Pearl glowing, and in his hand appeared a thick yellow book.
“In such a great battle, if we still hide, then we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to act.
Wenchang Dijun nodded, directly summoning a brush. This brush, resembling a spear, was entirely green, exuding an overwhelming aura of righteousness.
Although Shui Miao’s artifact was destroyed, the others’ artifacts were still intact.
These were their life-bound artifacts.
“Everyone, I will enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging, turning into a small mountain. He then loudly recited the Dao De Jing, his voice growing stronger. After the recitation, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had boundless energy.
“Truth is not discerned without debate, right and wrong are naturally clear in the hearts of men. You demons, awaken quickly and return to the path of righteousness…”
Wenchang Dijun wielded his brush in the air, writing magnificent chapters and drawing a green talisman, which he hurled towards the horde of demons. The talisman grew larger as it flew, striking many demons. The demons, tainted by the talisman’s aura, shook and immediately regained clarity. With their malevolence dispelled, they each harbored a heart of righteousness, turning their spears to join the Buddhas in battle, exterminating the demons.
“Incredible!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of Yuancheng, was not to be outdone. She immediately activated Yuancheng’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain fell over the Spirit City. This holy rain caused unbearable pain to the demons, as if they were being burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Spirit City quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was locked in a stare-down with Xuankong’er’s avatar…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but he was empty-handed, without any artifact. How could he fight?
His good artifacts were all destroyed, even the Time Protection Pearl was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuankong’er!?
Xuankong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing the essence of all evils…
His Soul-Dazing Mirror remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao. The moment Shui Miao moved, it would act.
Forging an artifact on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used the Soul Devouring Power to attack, but after fleeing into the sun, the Soul Devouring Power was obliterated by the intense solar energy.
Now, Shui Miao only had pure solar energy to utilize.
“Shui Miao, act quickly. What stands before you is merely an avatar. Seize the opportunity to take his acquired spiritual artifact, reforge it, and thus we can stand invincible.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly responded, “Elder, I have no artifacts, only my energy. His artifacts are powerful; I fear I cannot match him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace. Even if I could seize his acquired spiritual artifact, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong. You can use the Spiritual Fire to attack him.”
For the sake of the Spirit City’s monks, the old monk had no choice but to impart the supreme Buddhist method of Spiritual Fire to Shui Miao. Receiving the information, Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he instantly memorized the method. He quickly followed the old monk’s teachings, attempting to summon the Spiritual Fire…
The Spiritual Fire is an intangible flame, the supreme kind of fire.
The power of the Spiritual Fire depends on one’s spiritual strength; the stronger the spirit, the more potent the fire.
Shui Miao, the Saint King of Yin-Yang Forging, possessed immense spiritual power, only slightly inferior to Xuankong’er.
Now, Shui Miao was to exert his full strength to deal with Xuankong’er’s avatar, which was naturally within his capabilities.
Shui Miao gazed at Xuankong’er’s avatar, focusing his intent. Before long, the avatar suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Dazing Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also caught fire instantly…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The essence of the Spiritual Fire lies in the intense concentration of spirit.
The moment Shui Miao summoned the Spiritual Fire, the old monk also launched a counterattack. From the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuankong’er, forcing him to dodge and neglect his avatar.
“Damn it, damn it!”
With the demon army from the void planet hindered, his avatar attacked by Shui Miao, and himself suppressed by unidentified Buddhas, Xuankong’er was furious. He never expected that even with his full strength, he would be forced into such chaos!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good…”
Xuankong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat as he sensed Shui Miao’s Spiritual Fire suddenly increase several times in power. His avatar and artifacts were being burned from the inside out, and it wouldn’t be long before the avatar was incinerated, and the artifact spirits completely annihilated!
It turned out that after mastering the Spiritual Fire, Shui Miao immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the realm of his consciousness, causing the Spiritual Fire to surge several times, surpassing Xuankong’er in an instant!
“Whoosh!”
In desperation, Xuankong’er quickly retreated, merging with his avatar to confront Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuankong’er merged with his avatar, a thunderous roar erupted, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive lightning bolt!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chongyuanzi is here…”
Chongyuanzi, the Thunder Deity, after eliminating all the puppets in the celestial realm and collecting most of their primordial spirits, rushed to the Western Heaven to aid in the battle.
Chongyuanzi’s arrival at this moment was like timely snow, providing the much-needed assistance.
Caught off guard by the lightning strike, Xuankong’er’s body was momentarily paralyzed.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain blade, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuankong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Dazing Mirror. The blade, of unknown quality, was swung ten times in a flash by the old monk, shattering Xuankong’er’s Time Protection Pearl (an acquired spiritual artifact)!
Immediately, the old monk transmitted his thoughts, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly focus the Spiritual Fire to burn the Soul-Dazing Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately concentrated all his Spiritual Fire on Xuankong’er’s Soul-Dazing Mirror. The mirror, burned by the Spiritual Fire, suddenly turned into a fluid substance, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this fluid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed with excitement, and he quickly moved to seize it…
“What is this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was he really going to seize the material I had forged from the acquired spiritual artifact? Is this the conduct of a monk?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the essence of the acquired spiritual artifact, the old monk didn’t say a word and disappeared in a flash.
Xuankong’er, recovering from his paralysis, also vanished in a flash, reappearing a hundred meters away.
“Whoosh!”
In desperation, Xuan Kong’er quickly returned and merged with his clone to confront Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuan Kong’er recombined, a thunderclap rang out, and his newly merged body was engulfed in a massive bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chong Yuanzi has arrived!”
After eliminating all the puppets in the Immortal Realm and collecting most of their souls, Chong Yuanzi, the Thunder Sect’s Supreme Master, had come to the Western Paradise to join the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was like a timely rain in a drought.
Caught off guard, Xuan Kong’er was struck by the lightning, his body tingling with numbness.
“Whoosh!”
Suddenly, the old monk, wielding a golden linked-blade saber, swooped down from the sky and slashed at Xuan Kong’er’s arm holding the “Soul-Confusing Mirror.” The blade’s material was unknown, but after ten rapid strikes, the old monk shattered Xuan Kong’er’s “Time-Protecting Magic Pearl (acquired treasure).”
Then, the old monk’s voice echoed in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly focus your Mind Flame on the Soul-Confusing Mirror!”
“Okay!”
Shui Miao immediately concentrated his Mind Flame on the “Soul-Confusing Mirror.” The mirror melted into a stream of spiritual liquid, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing the liquid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed with excitement. In an instant, he darted forward to seize it.
“What!?”
When the sound rang out, Shui Miao and the others felt their bodies lighten, and all the previous restraints were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look…”
“Alright!”
Shui Miao and the group quickly soared into the air, and with their spiritual senses, they immediately detected the presence of Xuankong’er.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The four of them swiftly flew towards the source.
On the pagoda, the clashing of cymbals echoed continuously. Xuankong’er, who had been hiding his tracks, attempted to approach the pagoda several times, but each time he was thrown into disarray by the deafening noise. After revealing himself, he once again charged at the pagoda!
It seemed as though the old monk was hiding within the cloud-shrouded pagoda.
Shui Miao and the others hovered above the Spirit City, observing the situation, not daring to act rashly or blindly join the battle.
As Xuankong’er charged at the pagoda, his Banner of Ten Thousand Evils continuously emitted billowing black smoke. This smoke was the essence of all evils; once tainted by it, one’s mind would change, evil thoughts would arise, and they would soon fall into demonic madness.
Moreover, Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror was also flashing and leaping around, countering the talismans.
After Xuankong’er exerted his full strength, his magical power was indeed formidable.
However, the arrival of Shui Miao and the others immediately caused Xuankong’er to hold back.
Suddenly, Xuankong’er’s body shook, and he split into two. One continued to charge at the pagoda, while the other held the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils and the Soul-Bewitching Mirror, confronting Shui Miao and the others: “Shui Miao, you have quite the courage! You dare to come out and seek death?”
“Xuankong’er, you also have quite the courage, daring to cause trouble in the Western Heaven?”
Shui Miao responded loudly, his voice as powerful as a rainbow, not at all inferior to Xuankong’er.
Hearing this, Xuankong’er roared in anger, “The Western Heaven is nothing in my eyes! I’ve conquered the Three Realms, how could I fear a bald-headed thief monk? You all think he can save you, very well, then let me destroy you and show him the power of Xuankong’er!”
Xuankong’er still had a trump card!
Suddenly, the sky above the massive Spirit City split open, revealing a chasm tens of thousands of meters long and hundreds of meters wide. On the other side of the chasm, stars twinkled, and countless demonic creatures flew over, even dragons appeared, turning the sky above the Spirit City into a paradise for demons.
“Roar…”
“Wail…”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
A multitude of demons, each with the cultivation level of a Celestial Venerable, and countless with the cultivation level of a Celestial Emperor.
They seemed to come from planets deep in the universe, not in human form, nor were they demons from the demonic realm.
“Kill!”
“Demons invade our Spirit City, let the Buddhas unleash their wrath and restore the Buddha’s light to our city!”
“Great Flying Dragon, World-Honored Ksitigarbha, all heavenly Buddhas, grant me the Vajra Body to exterminate the evil demons…”
“…”
The entire Spirit City trembled, and countless Buddhas rose into the sky, clashing with the demonic horde, turning the city into a chaotic battlefield, where the sun and moon lost their light!
“Shui Miao, why aren’t you helping now? What are you waiting for?”
From the towering pagoda, the old monk’s hysterical roar echoed: “What you see before you is merely his clone, do not fear him. His true body is here with me, quickly act to restrain him.”
“Shui Miao, let’s act together!”
Tianyi Dejun’s body shone with a brilliant light, and a thick yellow book appeared in his hand.
“If we hide from such a battle, we are nothing but cowards.” Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother, also summoned her sacred artifact, ready to fight.
Wenchang Dijun nodded and directly summoned a brush, as long as a spear, entirely green, exuding an overwhelming righteous aura.
Although Shui Miao’s artifact was destroyed, the others’ artifacts were still intact.
These were their life-bound artifacts.
“Everyone, I will enhance your divine power!” Tianyi Dejun soared into the air, his body suddenly enlarging to the size of a small mountain, and then he loudly recited the Dao De Jing. As the recitation grew louder, Shui Miao and all those with righteous hearts felt their strength increase, as if they had endless energy.
“Truth is not clear without debate, justice naturally resides in the hearts of men. You demons, awaken quickly and restore the will of heaven…”
Wenchang Dijun waved his brush in the air, writing magnificent chapters and drawing a green talisman that flew towards the horde of demons. The talisman grew larger as it flew, striking many demons. The demons, tainted by the talisman’s aura, trembled and suddenly regained their senses. Once awakened, their malevolence vanished, and each one possessed a heart aligned with the will of heaven, turning their weapons to fight alongside the Buddhas, exterminating the demons.
“So powerful!”
Seeing the two city lords unleash their power, Shui Tianyi, the Holy Mother of Yuancheng, was not to be outdone. She immediately activated Yuancheng’s treasure, the Disk of Life.
Instantly, a gentle rain fell over the Spirit City. This holy rain caused the demons unbearable pain, as if they were being burned by fire.
With the participation of Tianyi Dejun, Wenchang Dijun, and Shui Tianyi, the Spirit City quickly gained the upper hand, suppressing the evil demons.
Meanwhile, Shui Miao was facing Xuankong’er’s clone…
Shui Miao was not unwilling to act, but now he was empty-handed, without any artifacts. How could he fight?
His good artifacts were all destroyed, even the Time-Protecting Pearl was gone. In such a situation, what could he use to fight Xuankong’er!?
Xuankong’er’s Banner of Ten Thousand Evils was still releasing demonic energy…
His Soul-Bewitching Mirror remained still, seemingly guarding against Shui Miao. If Shui Miao moved, it would act.
Forging an artifact on the spot was already too late.
Shui Miao could have used his Soul-Devouring Power to attack, but after fleeing into the sun, the Soul-Devouring Power was destroyed by the intense solar energy.
Now, Shui Miao could only rely on his pure solar energy.
“Shui Miao, act quickly. What stands before you is merely a clone. Seize the opportunity to take his acquired spiritual artifact, reforge it, and we can stand firm in an invincible position.”
The old monk’s voice suddenly echoed in Shui Miao’s mind.
Shui Miao’s heart stirred, and he quickly responded, “Elder, I have no artifacts, only my energy. His artifacts are powerful, I fear I cannot defeat him! Moreover, I no longer have a forging furnace. Even if I could seize his acquired spiritual artifact, I cannot reforge it!”
“Fool, your spiritual power is so strong, you can use the fire of your spirit to attack him.”
For the sake of the Spirit City’s monks, the old monk had no choice but to impart the supreme Buddhist method of using the fire of the spirit to Shui Miao. Shui Miao received the information, his heart stirred, and he instantly memorized the method. He quickly followed the old monk’s teachings, attempting to summon the fire of his spirit…
The fire of the spirit is an intangible flame, the supreme kind of fire.
The fire of the spirit depends on one’s spiritual power; the stronger the spirit, the more powerful the fire.
Shui Miao was a Yin-Yang Forging Saint King, with extremely strong spiritual power, only slightly inferior to Xuankong’er.
Now, Shui Miao would exert his full strength to deal with Xuankong’er’s clone, which was naturally within his capabilities.
Shui Miao looked at Xuankong’er’s clone, concentrated his spirit, and soon, the clone’s body suddenly burst into flames!
The Soul-Bewitching Mirror and the Banner of Ten Thousand Evils also caught fire instantly…
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The fire of the spirit relies on intense concentration.
As Shui Miao summoned the fire of the spirit, the old monk also launched a counterattack. From the towering pagoda, several massive Buddha hands descended, grabbing at Xuankong’er, forcing him to dodge and abandon his clone.
“Damn it, damn it!”
The demonic army from the void planet was hindered, the clone was attacked by Shui Miao, and he himself was suppressed by an unknown Buddha. Xuankong’er was furious, never expecting that even with his full strength, he would be forced into such chaos!
“Huh?”
“What’s going on… Ah! No good…”
Xuankong’er’s heart suddenly skipped a beat as he sensed Shui Miao’s fire of the spirit suddenly increase in power several times. The clone and the artifact, from the inside out, were being burned, and it wouldn’t be long before the clone was incinerated, and the artifact’s spirit was completely destroyed!
It turned out that after Shui Miao mastered the fire of the spirit, he immediately mobilized the spiritual power of all the immortals within the realm of his consciousness, causing the fire of the spirit to surge several times, surpassing Xuankong’er in an instant!
“Whoosh!”
In a panic, Xuankong’er quickly retreated, merging with his clone to face Shui Miao.
“Boom!”
Just as Xuankong’er merged with his clone, a sudden thunderclap rang out, and his newly merged body was enveloped in a massive bolt of lightning!
“Brother Shui Miao, Chong Yuanzi is here…”
Chong Yuanzi, the Thunder Ministry’s Dharma Lord, after eliminating all the puppets in the celestial realm and collecting most of their souls, rushed to the Western Heaven to join the battle.
Chong Yuanzi’s arrival at this moment was like timely assistance, everything was ready, and the east wind had arrived.
Xuankong’er, caught off guard by the lightning strike, felt a numbing sensation throughout his body.
“Whoosh!”
The old monk, wielding a golden chain sword, suddenly descended, slashing directly at Xuankong’er’s arm holding the Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The sword, of unknown quality, was swung ten times in a flash by the old monk, shattering Xuankong’er’s Time-Protecting Pearl (an acquired spiritual artifact)!
Immediately, the old monk transmitted his thoughts, shouting in Shui Miao’s mind, “Shui Miao, quickly concentrate the fire of your spirit to burn the Soul-Bewitching Mirror!”
“Alright…”
Shui Miao immediately focused all the fire of his spirit on Xuankong’er’s Soul-Bewitching Mirror. The mirror, burned by the fire of the spirit, suddenly turned into a fluid substance, flowing onto the ground…
Seeing this fluid, the old monk’s eyes gleamed, and he quickly moved to seize it…
“What is this?”
Seeing the old monk so eager, Shui Miao was shocked. Was this the behavior of a monk, to seize the material I had forged from an acquired spiritual artifact?
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the original fluid of the acquired spiritual artifact, the old monk didn’t say a word, instantly disappearing.
Xuankong’er, recovering from the numbing sensation and regaining his energy, also disappeared, reappearing a hundred meters away.
“Whoosh!”
After seizing the liquid essence of the acquired treasure, the old monk didn’t even say a word and vanished in a flash.
Xuan Kong’er, recovering from the numbness, also vanished in a flash, retreating a hundred meters away.
