Chapter 1282: I Have A Daoist Core, Illuminating All Gods And Buddhas, The Final Trial
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“If a mere Immortal’s Core has such energy, just how powerful is he?!”
The Buddhist sky-pride looked at Chu Kuangren in disbelief.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren ignored the rest and walked toward the statue at the end of the grotto.
When he stepped into the range within the Demon Trial, multiple scenes transformed before him, and countless strange things whizzed toward him as if to pull him into the endless darkness.
“Is this the Demon Trial?” murmured Chu Kuangren.
!!
Then, he waved his sleeves, and those countless strange things collapsed before him.
Those strange things that the Demon Trial’s power transformed into did not affect him at all.
With that, he walked toward the statue. As he got closer, the Demon Trial’s power became stronger, and the requirement for his Daoist core got higher.
He saw countless frightening monsters, the tragic death of his loved ones, and the demise of the empire he created…
The Demon Trial was creating all kinds of illusions in an attempt to destroy his Daoist core.
However, in the face of those scenes, Chu Kuangren did not react to them and walked briskly with his firm Daoist core. Nothing could affect him!
To the outside world’s cultivators, Chu Kuangren’s performance was even more impressive than that of the Buddhist Disciple Huijue.
“What a powerful Daoist core.”
“As expected of Chu Kuangren.”
“He’s a hundred steps away from the Sarira.”
Within a hundred steps from the statue, Chu Kuangren had to deal with the Perilous Brahmic Chime besides the increasing Demon Trial’s power. Even the Buddhist Disciple Huijue would be affected under such circumstances.
However, everyone was surprised that Chu Kuangren did not slow down after stepping into the hundred-step range of the statue.
The Perilous Brahmic Chime reverberated in his ears, impacting his mind and trying to trap him into an endless illusion.
Unfortunately, those were useless to Chu Kuangren. Soon, he caught up with the Buddhist Disciple Huijue.
“How could his Daoist core be so powerful? Even the Buddhist Disciple Huijue had to use his Boddhi Heart to approach the statue merely, yet all that guy is using is his strength!”
The Buddhist sky-pride’s voice was trembling.
In his opinion, Chu Kuangren’s DaoistcCore was more shocking than his cultivation level.
His Daoist core was on par with the Buddhist Boddi Heart, and it might even be much more powerful!
Within ten steps of the Sarira at the end of the grotto, the Buddhist Disciple Huijue was having a hard time taking a step even though he had the help of the Boddhi Heart.
Suddenly, he noticed footsteps behind him.
He then saw Chu Kuangren passing him and walking toward the Sarira at a leisurely pace.
“He’s… Chu Kuangren?!”
Huijue’s pupils shrank in horror.
One would only know how terrifying the Demon Trial was when they experienced it!
However, it was as if Chu Kuangren was blind to all those!
His Daoist core was simply unattainable!
“How on earth did he resist those gods and Buddhas?!” Huijue mumbled.
The invisible Demon Trial’s power enveloped the surroundings while the Perilous Brahmic Chime reverberated in the air.
Vaguely, the countless murals around the grotto seemed to have come alive, filled with infinite divine might, as they stared coldly at Chu Kuangren.
Among them were the Buddhist Four Great King Kongs, Eight Division Holy Dragons, Eighteen Arhats, and Eight Hundred Bhikkhunis…
Countless gods and Buddhas crossed the river of time and walked out of those murals to come to Chu Kuangren.
“How dare you challenge all of us, Chu Kuangren?”
At that moment, the Buddhist Four Great King Kongs glared at Chu Kuangren, and their majestic voices echoed in the void.
Ordinary cultivators would have been frightened to death by the confrontation, but it did not bother Chu Kuangren at all.
He said indifferently, “Is it time for all these gods and Buddhas to transform into illusions now? Interesting.”
“How audacious!”
“We’re the Buddhist King Kongs, the Eighteen Arhats, and the Eight Division Holy Dragons. How dare you say we’re illusions?! Ridiculous!”
“Lunatic! Kneel before us, the Buddhist gods, now!”
The King Kongs were furious, and Bodhisattvas frowned while the Arhats confronted Chu Kuangren in a cold voice.
Countless gods and Buddhas were staring at Chu Kuangren at that moment. Their boundless pressure could almost crush the world!
Even a Prodigy would have to kneel under such pressure!
“Heh…”
Then, a chuckle sounded.
Chu Kuangren stood with hands behind his back and his robe as white as snow. Facing the gods and Buddhas’ confrontation, he appeared calm.
At that, the gods and Buddhas were even more furious, and their domineering aura was even more terrifying!
However, an unparalleled transcendental intent erupted from Chu Kuangren’s body!
“I’ll neither kneel to the sky nor earth. Even heaven and earth can’t make me surrender. How dare you think you can make me kneel?!”
“So what if you’re gods and Buddhas?!”
“Whoever stands in my way, be it gods, Buddhas, or demons, I’ll kill them all!”
“All ghouls, gods, Buddhas, and demons must make way for me!”
Chu Kuangren’s voice resounded in the clouds away and echoed in the illusory world.
His aura was so powerful that even the gods and Buddhas were shocked.
Following that, Chu Kuangren stepped forward, and his Supreme Daoist core radiated brightly. Wherever the brilliance traveled, the gods and Buddhas perished!
‘I have a Supreme Daoist core that’ll shine through all the gods and Buddhas!’
“What a lunatic!”
“A lunatic wreaking havoc in this world!”
All the gods and Buddhas stared at Chu Kuangren. Even at the moment of their deaths, there was still shock in their eyes.
However, Chu Kuangren could not care less.
He continued to walk forward. Even then, the Perilous Brahmic Chime and the Demon Trial could not stop him at all.
Eventually, he came to the statue, and there was a zafu in front of the statue.
Chu Kuangren sensed there were countless restrictions around the Sarira that even a True Immortal would not be able to destroy.
Despite that, there was no restriction on the zafu, which was spotless and placed on the ground.
“Oh, is it inviting me to sit down?”
Chu Kuangren smiled and did not refuse.
The moment he sat on it, the statue shone with boundless Buddhist Light.
Suddenly, a solemn, divine intent permeated the entire grotto.
Bathed in the boundless Buddhist Light, a faint smile curved up on the corner of the statue’s mouth.
The statue was… alive!
The crowd was stunned upon seeing that scene.
“What happened?!”
“This statue was transformed by a wisp of Immortal Consciousness from the Buddhist Great One here, and he’s the final trial!”
A sky-pride immediately realized everything.
The previous Demon Trial, with the Perilous Brahmic Chime, was already extremely difficult, so how difficult would the final trial be?!
No one could imagine.
“Greetings, Daoist Brother.”
The monk, who transformed from the statue, held the Sarira in his hands and nodded at Chu Kuangren.
Upon hearing him, Chu Kuangren nodded as well. “Greetings, Buddhist Brother.”
“Daoist Brother, I guess you’re here for the Sarira.”
“Yes.”
“To pass the Demon Trial and the Perilous Brahmic Chime’s trial with such a strong Daoist core, I’m impressed.”
“What is your trial, Buddhist Brother?”
“It’s not a trial but merely a chat with you about Buddhism,” the monk said with a smile.
Sparring about Buddhism was the monk’s last trial for Chu Kuangren, and only by getting the monk’s approval could he obtain the Sarira.
Further away, all cultivators were amazed when they heard the monk’s statement.
“Is he joking?”
“Chatting about Buddhism? Chu Kuangren isn’t a Buddhist cultivator. What is there to chat about?”
“Indeed. It’s clear that the Buddhist Great One doesn’t want to give the Sarira to Chu Kuangren but Huijue.”
“That’s right. I didn’t expect the Buddhist Great One to be so biased.”
