Chapter 2445: Murderous Intent
Boom! Drowned by the attacks of the Sonic Waves, the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor was knocked back a few steps, somewhat shaken.
Watching what was happening gave Lord Initial Zen a cold satisfaction inside. These two were using their spiritual souls to control the divine body; therefore, the spiritual souls were an obvious weak point. As soon as their spiritual souls were eliminated, this battle would be over.
Lord Initial Zen’s eyes closed as the Light of Buddha burned fervently. The Great Path Sound of Buddha lingered, resounding through heaven and earth. The power of the Sonic Waves continued to sweep towards the divine body.
But at this moment, Shenjia the Great Emperor managed to stabilize himself, and an even more dazzling divine light bloomed from the divine body. Infinite runes swept across this space, accompanied by the release of countless radiance. Even the power of that invisible Sonic Waves was being weakened.
The Sonic Waves attack was invisible and left no trace, but it was definitely weakening under the divine light. It was gradually being suppressed and destroyed bit by bit.
The Sonic Waves continued getting weaker. The vast world was full of divine light radiated from the divine body.
“Path Obliteration can obliterate all Great Paths. In its domain, no other powers of the Great Path are allowed.” Lord Ye and Lord Liberty had sensed the true meaning hidden within this destructive attack, and their hearts palpitated as they watched.
Furthermore, the power that erupted from the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor was clearly becoming stronger. If this were to continue, Lord Initial Zen was very likely to…
As soon as Lord Initial Zen thought he had discovered his opponent’s weak point, his Great Path Sonic Waves attack disintegrated. He couldn’t help but began to worry. The power that was erupting from the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor was nearly invincible because it could annihilate any Great Paths.
According to rumors, Shenjia the Great Emperor sought to contend with the heavenly path in ancient times.
If the attacking power of Shenjia the Great Emperor was a kind of Great Path, then it could be a power much higher than theirs, so it was daring enough to compete with the heavenly path.
This kind of power was nearly incomprehensible by the likes of them.
Obviously, Ye Futian and Lord Six Desires’ control over the divine body was getting stronger.
Buzz! At this moment, a string of golden Buddhist beads appeared in Lord Initial Zen’s hands. A horrific aura bloomed above the beads. There were 108 beads altogether, and each of the beads released a different kind of powerful aura. All of which stemmed from Buddhism.
The power of the Great Path madly poured into the Buddhist beads. Then, Lord Initial Zen wave his hand, and beads flew out, only to reappear in the sky above the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor. It was expanding continuously, turning into a massive halo, emitting the Light of Buddha as far as the eye could see.
An extremely holy Buddhist divine glory sprinkled down from the void. Lord Initial Zen clasped his hands together in utmost piety. The power of the Great Path above the divine body rushed into the Buddhist beads with madness, and suddenly all 108 Buddhist beads burst open, turning into 108 sets of Buddhas.
All 108 Buddhas then united into one body. Above the firmament, the Sound of Buddha lingered as a horrific aura diffused from each and every Buddha. The auras of all 108 Buddhas descended at the same time. Its collective might was enough to overpower the heavens.
Clang! Voices came out as all 108 Buddhas moved in unison. The giant handprints blasted down, crushing the void, and suddenly, countless Symbols of Wan appeared. They slammed down on the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor at the same time as frightening rumbling could be heard. The entire space seemed on the verge of collapse.
Shenjia the Great Emperor raised his head slightly and looked at the Buddhas in the sky. From within the divine body, even more branches and leaves now bloomed. There was a divine light surrounding the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor, as a massive golden lotus could be seen faintly. Branches and leaves seemed to grow out of the golden lotus.
This golden lotus first opened up with six petals, then six turned into 36 petals, and continued like so in repetition, going round and round, moving towards the giant handprints that slammed down from the void in attack.
The dreadful handprints and the Symbols of Wan had all been blocked as if they were being swallowed by the golden lotus. What’s more terrifying was that every golden lotus was conceived by the destructive light of catastrophe.
The lotus was born between heaven and earth, intending to envelop the boundless space and swallow up all 108 Buddhas.
“Six Desire Lotus!” Lord Ye’s heart was trembling when he saw the scene before him. This was Lord Six Desires’ life spirit, hidden within his spiritual soul. And at this moment, it was blooming, carrying the Path Obliteration power inside Shenjia the Great Emperor. There was no telling how frightening it would be.
The Six Desires Lotus was known for its ability to swallow the Paths of all things and produce the catastrophe of destruction. The endless desires gave rise to endless lotuses.
“It seems that Lord Six Desires is really controlling the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor. He is maneuvering it with more proficiency. Initial Zen is going to be in trouble,” Lord Liberty said to Lord Ye via voice transmission. But the two could only watch on the sidelines. Both of them had been grievously injured and had no way to participate in the battle at the moment. All they could do was wait to die.
More importantly, Lord Initial Zen was the one who set them up, so there was no way they would be participating in this battle. They were content to watch from the side, but a bit of worry troubled them both.
Now, they probably wouldn’t be able to get away even if they wanted to.
The legend had it that the Six Desires Lotus contained endless desires. At this moment, endless lotus flowers were born, intending to swallow that 108 Buddhas. All 108 shadows of Buddha release a boundless and splendid Light of Buddha. An even more majestic shadow of Buddha now appeared above the firmament, as if its head was pushing against the heavens as the feet were planted firmly on the ground. The feet stomped down without warning, wanting to smash the golden lotus.
The golden lotus blossoms shattered and pulverized one by one, but the Six Desires Lotus seemed to be born out of endless desires. Thus as it died, it was reborn endlessly and forever until it shrouded all 108 Buddhas. Then it turned toward that enormous and incomparable shadow of Buddha to swallow it up next.
In an instant, the Six Desire Lotus that was born continuously submerged the entire sky. Then, a light of destruction bloomed from every golden lotus so that all 108 Buddhas proceeded to explode and pulverize. Even that boundless gigantic shadow of the Buddha was being eaten up little by little, then collapsed in total destruction.
“Puh…” Lord Initial Zen groaned as he spat out a mouthful of blood. The Light of Buddha on his body dimmed considerably. His eyes looked towards the body of Shenjia the Great Emperor. “My friend, I was never malicious to you. Why should it be like this between us? Stop now, and you can name any conditions you want,” he pleaded.
Lord Initial Zen wanted to negotiate a truce.
Ye Futian laughed coldly inside when he heard the other’s plead. Lord Initial Zen had a scheming heart. He had set up Lord Ye and Lord Liberty, wanting to kill Lord Six Desires to avoid future trouble. It was still an unknown whether he would move against the other two lords…
As for himself, if Lord Six Desires died and he fell into the hands of Lord Initial Zen, his fate would be thousands of times worse. Lord Initial Zen would definitely keep him under tighter control than Lord Six Desires ever had.
Therefore, Ye Futian had planned accordingly and executed the plan as expected. He was lucky. He was right that Lord Six Desires didn’t hesitate when he was forced to face that impossible situation.
“Elder had misunderstood. It’s not me who was doing all this,” said a calm voice from Shenjia the Great Emperor. It was light as a feather and carefree; it sounded as if nothing had anything to do with him, as if it were Lord Six Desires who wanted to continue this fatal exchange.
“Surely, my young friend is joking. How could he continue to control the divine body of the Great Emperor if you stopped?” Lord Initial Zen continued. He knew very well that Lord Six Desires could no longer turn back as his body no longer existed. No matter what, Six Desires would want to kill him anyway. The only chance he had was to talk to Ye Futian.
This time, Ye Futian didn’t pay any attention to him. The divine light sparkled on Shenjia the Great Emperor as countless golden lotus flowers swallowed toward Lord Initial Zen!
