Chapter 749: Chapter 749

"Understood!" Wuzhiqi roared loudly, rising to his feet with his simian face wearing the aura of military slaughter, ripples fanning out across the space around him as he instantly vanished from the great hall.

Boom, boom, boom~ the sound of thunderous war drums echoed throughout Heaven and Earth.

Countless Heavenly Soldiers and Generals mounted golden clouds and ascended into the sky, densely covering the heavens. Formation after formation was set, to suppress, execute, expel demons, with the Four Symbols, Five Elements, and other concepts revolving above the Heavenly Court, amassing a mighty force brimming with the will to combat.

The immense murderous aura had alarmed the entire Three Realms, and the Primordial Great Powers turned their attention towards it, with two tremendous threats colliding above the Heavenly Court, on the verge of erupting.

Spiritual Mountain, atop the main peak of the Great Leiyin Temple, a brand-new palace stood, incomparably smaller and made of inferior materials when compared to the original Great Leiyin Temple, looking like a thatched hut by comparison. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novᴇlfire.net

Inside the palace, on the main seat, The Buddha sat upon a Lotus Platform, flanked by Guanyin Bodhisattva and Manjusri Bodhisattva, while Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy, Vilu Buddha, and other Buddha Bodhisattvas sat below, with Buddha Wheels casting shades of golden light, illuminating Spiritual Mountain.

The Buddha turned his head towards the east with a look of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes, feeling a subconscious prickling pain. This was the work of Ming He Sect Master and the Blood Sea Asura Clan.

The other Buddha Bodhisattvas also turned their gaze towards Heavenly Court, their expressions filled with shock and uncertainty.

Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy exclaimed: "Buddha, this... this is the evil aura of the Blood Sea. Are they planning to attack Heavenly Court after attacking Spiritual Mountain?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva also spoke with shock: "Has the Ming He Sect Master grown so audacious?"

Vilu Buddha immediately looked towards the main seat and said, "Buddha, I propose that our Buddhism temporarily set aside our grievances with Heavenly Court and join forces to deal with the threat of the Blood Sea, paving the way for the great prosper of our faith."

Guanyin Bodhisattva said, "This is unwise~"

"How does Bodhisattva suggest we proceed?" Vilu Buddha looked towards Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Guanyin Bodhisattva pondered briefly before smiling and saying, "In my opinion, Buddhism should sit back and watch the tigers fight, letting Heavenly Court and the Blood Sea battle it out, then intervene at the critical moment to secure victory and weaken both Heavenly Court and the Blood Sea’s forces."

Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy also joyfully agreed, "I too concur with Guanyin Bodhisattva’s view. This is a heavenly opportunity!"

The Buddha’s majestic voice echoed within the great hall: "Let’s follow Guanyin Bodhisattva’s advice. Pass the order for Douzhan Jinkang Buddha in Spiritual Mountain to mobilize the Buddha Soldiers and be ready for deployment."

Vilu Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, all placed their palms together and bowed respectfully, saying: "Our Buddha is merciful!"

Within Spiritual Mountain, all Buddha Bodhisattvas looked expectantly towards the east, their hearts continually praying, "Namo Amitabha Buddha~ let the battle commence, let the Blood Sea engulf Heavenly Court."

All the warriors of Spiritual Mountain gathered, ready to march against Heavenly Court at a moment’s notice.

Inside the great hall, The Buddha said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, send a message to Emperor Ziwei, instructing him to keep a close watch on the conflict between Heavenly Court and the Blood Sea, to discern the cause and effect at play."

Guanyin Bodhisattva promptly responded, "Yes!" and slowly closed her eyes.

Moments later, Guanyin opened her eyes, showing a look of astonishment and disbelief.

Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy anxiously asked, "What’s the situation in Heavenly Court now?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva came back to her senses and turned her head to look at the main seat, asking with some disbelief, "Buddha, what is Bai Jin’s current realm and cultivation level?"

The Buddha’s grand voice sounded, "During the Qin Dynasty of the Earth Immortal Realm, the Demon Clan desired to establish a Human World Demon Country with the help of the Human Clan, and the Hundred Schools crossed the sea to campaign against the Demon Country.

That war had extensive implications, and atop the East Sea, Bai Jin slew the Evil Corpse, achieving the Quasi-Saint Path.

Before the calamity of the Westward Journey, Bai Jin promoted the Three Realms Mall, benefiting all beings of the Primordial World. Too many to count have used it, greatly benefiting the Primordial Beings. Hence, Bai Jin slew the Good Corpse, achieving the Two Corpses Quasi-Saint."

Guanyin Bodhisattva hesitated for a moment, then said, "Emperor Ziwei sent a message, saying that Emperor Gouchen in the Palace of the Polestar is confronting the Ming He Sect Master, his imposing momentum not falling short, causing All Gods to panic and flee."

Vilu Buddha blurted out subconsciously, "Impossible!"

Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy said in shock, "Could it be that Bai Jin has broken through to the strongest?"

Manjusri Bodhisattva also firmly said, "Absolutely impossible. If one becomes a Strongest Quasi-Saint, Heaven and Earth will sense it, and there will be Miracles. It has been dozens of eons since the Primordial World has seen the birth of the strongest."

The Buddha silently gazed eastward, slowly stating, "There is only one possibility, Bai Jin has used his ability to flatter and curry favor, gaining some sort of power from the Saints, enough to confront the strongest."

A wave of bitter helplessness filled his heart. Could there truly be no real fairness in this world? Thousands of Cultivators laboriously practice, only a few rare individuals stepping upon the path of Tao, earnestly seeking truth in their cultivation, yet in the end, they are not equal to a flatterer. How unjust is this world!

The Buddha roared in his heart, making a grand vow: If I become a Saint, I must exterminate all the flatterers in the Primordial World, to prove my way with this act.

Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled and said, "The Ming He Sect Master proves his way through killing, why would he fear mere external forces? From what I see, a battle between the Blood Sea and the Heavenly Court is inevitable.

With the Heavenly Emperor not yet returned, if Bai Jin can barely resist the Ming He Sect Master by borrowing external forces, the Blood Sea will surely suffer heavy losses, and in the future, the Heavenly Court will face the vengeance and hostility of a supreme strong one."

Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy laughed heartily and said, "Not just that, if the great battle begins, the mainstay of the Heavenly Court – the Law Enforcement Team – might all fall in battle. That is the Ming He Sect Master we are talking about!"

All Buddha Bodhisattvas turned their gaze towards the Heavenly Court, with a faint hope in their hearts, let the fight begin, quickly let it begin, let the Blood Sea flood the Heavenly Court, Ming He slaying the Divine.

At this moment, within the Palace of the Polestar.

"Ming He Sect Master, if you wish to battle, I shall accompany you.

But you must think it through, my Heavenly Court is the righteous tradition of the Heavenly Realm. If the Blood Sea assaults the Heavenly Court, the Blood Sea shall be defeated, and from henceforth, its lineage will disappear from the Earth Immortal Realm."

Bai Jin looked directly at the Ming He Sect Master, issuing a war threat without mercy, as a gigantic aura rose from him. In the unseen, Merit Coins burned, and with the Heavenly Dao’s breath bless him, *boom*—above the Heavenly Court, purple qi filled the air, auspicious light shone in thousands, and a heavy suppressive force still lingered over the Ming He Sect Master.

The Ming He Sect Master stood with hands clasped behind his back, inwardly praising, how did Bai Jin achieve this? His aura even contained a hint of the Heavenly Dao’s Power. A thought flickered unintentionally in his mind, could he be the illegitimate child of the Taoist Ancestor?

As the thought passed, Yuan Tu and Avici, two Killing Swords, suddenly appeared beside the Ming He Sect Master. His gaze was indifferent and merciless, and he slowly said, "These two swords, named Yuan Tu and Avici, are my innate Spiritual Treasure, containing the Innate Slaughter Law, corresponding to the slaughter laws of the Primordial World, slaying without attracting karma, would the Emperor like to give them a try?"

Four Immortal Swords appeared beside Bai Jin at the same time. In an instant, heavenly might descended, as divine majesty enveloped like a prison, he gravely said, "Qing Ming, Qingyu, Qing Xiao, Qingyun, the Green Sky Four Swords bestowed by my Master, united as one to summon heavenly might, does the Sect Hierarch wish to give them a try?"

Slaughter Sword Intent and Heavenly Might Sword Intent twined together, probing and colliding. The entire Heavenly Court was shrouded under the clout of the two supreme sword intents, as if Heaven and Earth had solidified.
