Chapter 623 - 622: East Buddha’s Invincible Path, Lin Heng’s Furious Return to the Heavens [Second Update]
At the same time, divine light descended from the heavens.
The aura of an extreme sacred weapon fell with a roar, forcing the Nine Nether Ao to retreat.
Hmm?
The whole audience was startled, their gazes converging towards the sky.
There, with vast righteous qi surging, a scholar in a long robe gracefully descended, standing between the Nine Nether Ao and Xiao Qing.
The Nine Nether Ao’s eyes were dark and grim as it shouted, "Meng Ke, you want to stop me? Do you still desire this seat?"
The newcomer was none other than.
The Sub-Saint of the Confucian School who participated in the last two seat contentions, Master Meng, Meng Ke!
"Miss Bai, you just ascend the platform, I will protect Miss Xiao Qing." Master Meng said to Bai Suzhen on the steps, then calmly looked towards the Nine Nether Ao.
"I have preached the Confucian doctrine in the Daoist Celestial Court for a hundred years, and I am not unrelated to Daoism."
"Now that Miss Xiao Qing is in such danger, if I sit by and do nothing, it would be unbecoming of a gentleman."
He was composed, stating his intent.
He was not here for the Saint’s seat.
He simply did not want to see the Cyan Snake perish here.
"Hmph, I want to see how you can withstand the heroes of the world."
"Everyone!"
The Nine Nether Ao’s aura soared as it arrogantly shouted: "I will deal with this Sub-Saint of the Confucian School. Whether the White Snake ascends the platform is up to you."
As his words ended.
The Phoenix Blood Dragon Pattern Cauldron rumbled up, with dragon and phoenix apparitions blossoming, and as the Immortal Light surged, it shattered vast starry skies, causing countless stars to explode.
Boom!
The terrifying force to suppress the world instantly targeted Meng Ke.
Meng Ke remained calm, murmuring, "I read the books of sages, now to be the one who turns the pages."
As his words fell, the Saint’s Book he held opened wide, countless principles unfolded like lotus flowers, and the world vibrated with their meaning, causing the classics to quake and the Dao to roar.
The power of the two sacred weapons intertwined in an instant, colliding and tearing each other apart.
Meanwhile, the Nine Nether Ao also deployed its tactics, with nine massive heads spitting celestial thunder and earthly fire, burning away vast expanses of void, trying to engulf Meng Ke.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."
Meng Ke’s words and laws follow, not only disappearing himself from the spot but also avoiding the overwhelming onslaught with Xiao Qing.
The battle here was in a deadlock, and the quasi-saints over there did not dare to delay, someone shouted: "Don’t hold back any longer, if we don’t unite, there will be no room for maneuver regarding the Saint’s seat."
After speaking, he took the lead in launching a deadly move, using the breath of a saint to gather heaven and earth’s primordial qi, condensing a world-ending great sun.
The great sun roared down, directly suppressing Bai Suzhen, who had already reached the Eighth Layer of the steps.
"Borrow the sword from heaven and earth, to cut through the Netherworld!"
The others no longer hesitated, and they all took action, unleashing deadly moves like a vast ocean crashing down towards Bai Suzhen.
Bai Suzhen was about to be overwhelmed.
Meng Ke wanted to disengage to support, but was firmly intercepted by the nine-headed form of the Nine Nether Ao.
At the critical moment.
It was actually Xiao Qing, already at the edge of exhaustion, who let out a fierce cry, burning the last of her vital blood, strenuously shaking the Nether Lord Banner.
Boom!
The black mist covering the sky, like a breached celestial river, surged towards that side, completely blocking these assaults with the Nether Lord Banner.
"Xiao Qing..."
Bai Suzhen seemed to feel Cyan Snake had reached the end of her life, her eyes filled with tears, her heart being torn to shreds.
Completely powerless, Xiao Qing only could raise her eyelids with difficulty, her voice faint as a mosquitoes’: "Go up..."
Bai Suzhen’s tears poured like a spring, amidst anguish and despair, her qi and blood surged like a vast ocean, sweeping across the star realm.
She heavily stepped forward, shattering all resistance, heading towards the final step of the Celestial Ladder.
"It’s over..."
All the quasi-saints present felt a jolt in their hearts.
Who would have thought.
Just as Bai Suzhen was about to successfully step onto the Celestial Dao Gate.
A Buddha’s chant echoed from the void.
A seven-colored Miao Guang swept through the star realm, piercing through Bai Suzhen’s body.
Seeing Bai Suzhen’s last step about to be taken.
Yet with this strike, it turned into a fleeting dream.
Her whole body was sent flying, like a kite with a broken string, her arms hanging limp, blood like sunset dyeing the void.
"Sister!!"
The sudden change stunned everyone.
The already breathless Cyan Snake watched powerlessly as her sister fell toward the deep sea, her pupils slowly dilating, tears involuntarily welling up, leaving only despair and grief in her heart.
Meng Ke also widened his eyes, angrily glancing at the figure on the temporal river, then hastily reached out, saving Bai Suzhen from the sea area across thousands of miles.
Everyone else’s eyes were all focused on the Celestial Dao Steps.
Beside that, the great river roared, shining Buddha Light illuminating the world.
East Buddha stood at the head of the tide, smiling, as the Seven Treasures Exquisite Tower beside him exuded an aura of suppressing all, floating in the void.
"Amitabha." He softly recited a Buddha’s name, smiling kindly: "This time, the seat of the Saint has a connection with me, everyone, please do not contend."
All the quasi-saints were enraged, gritting their teeth, saying: "Western Heaven, Future Buddha..."
"Do you think saying ’do not contend’ makes it so? I want to see, who truly has a connection with this seat!"
The Nine Nether Ao roared, rising up, holding the Phoenix Blood Dragon Pattern Cauldron, directly smashing it towards East Buddha.
East Buddha gave a faint smile, not even using the Seven Treasures Exquisite Tower, casually striking with Buddha’s Palm!
With a boom!
The whole scene was stupefied.
The Phoenix Blood Dragon Pattern Cauldron was blocked by East Buddha with Buddha’s Palm!
"Oh my god..."
"Hard resistance against extreme sacred weapon, he... has also walked his own path..."
All the quasi-saints were stunned.
The pupils of the Nine Nether Ao contracted violently.
No one expected that East Buddha had also reached this point.
This couldn’t help but remind the present quasi-saints of that person from back then...
"Physically withstanding extreme sacred weapon, plus the Seven Treasures Exquisite Tower, who can block him? Who dares to block him?"
All the quasi-saints felt a sense of despair, knowing very well how terrifying a quasi-saint who walked his own path could be...
"The great mountain from back then has fallen, and now, another great mountain is going to lay across the world..."
Everyone’s hearts were full of mixed emotions, especially the Nine Nether Ao, who thought he had reached the pinnacle of quasi-saints, plus the blessing of sacred weapons, he would be the strongest in this contention for the seat.
But who could have imagined, that East Buddha had reached this stage...
"Since you have walked your own path, why do you still contend for the Saint’s seat?" The Nine Nether Ao was anguished and filled with unwillingness.
"I said already, this time the seat has a connection with me." East Buddha said with a smile, calm as ever.
"Instead of contending for this seat, everyone might as well go after the Nether Lord Banner, obtaining an extreme sacred weapon is not a wasted trip."
East Buddha said with a smile, then proceeded to ascend the Celestial Ladder under everyone’s eyes.
No one dared to stop him.
No one dared to be the first to make a move.
The crowd could only watch in resentment as East Buddha ascended to the heights step by step.
"Perhaps, he is right, rather than coming for nothing, it might be better to strive for an extreme sacred weapon..."
Many quasi-saints cast cold glances towards the Cyan Snake.
Meng Ke frowned, the Saint’s Book suspended in front of him, on guard in all directions.
The Nine Nether Ao’s eyes were cold: "If I can’t contend for the Saint’s seat, I will at least kill every Daoist!"
It was the first to strike, the Phoenix Blood Dragon Pattern Cauldron thunderously descending.
At this moment, a figure appeared above the Celestial Domain, it was Lin Heng who finally returned.
Upon returning to this world, Lin Heng saw over thirty quasi-saints encircling Meng Ke.
And behind Meng Ke was a sight that made Lin Heng’s eyes tear up with rage.
