Chapter 382: Killing the Second Cultivator

Faced with Chu Tai's attack from a distance, the two people guarding the base couldn't help but feel despair.

But the two of them are not ordinary people, and they will fight even if they will die.

The old woman put her hand behind her head, and a precious wheel like a blood-red sun slowly rose up. As it turned, a dark red light flew out, mixed with thousands of green fires.

The other man waved his hands and raised a command flag. Arcs of electricity appeared, and hundreds of green flames extended from the collision, blooming as brilliantly as fireworks.

The shapes and qualities of these two magical weapons have undergone at least three changes, and each embodies the magical meaning of being paired with its owner. They should be the products of the two people's cultivation methods and their supernatural powers have reached perfection. They are the treasures that the two have kept in their hands.

Normally, a fifth-rank cultivator would have to retreat when faced with an attack from two people.

But with the blessing of the power of the cave heaven, the power of the Liang Yi Qing Ning Fan became even stronger, and with a turn of the yin and yang energies, the Blood Sun Wheel was shattered and the Jade Fire Flag collapsed. However, the two of them also took advantage of this moment to cut off their arms and escaped in blood.

Shao Siming raised his eyes, the purple bamboo branches shook gently, and two arms decorated with many flowers and vines stretched out from the void and grabbed the two people who had just escaped.

Before the old woman could stand firmly, she saw an arm reaching out. Her face changed instantly and she opened her mouth to spit out a puff of black smoke that swept around like a tidal wave.

There were ghostly shadows floating in the black fog, mixed with bursts of babies crying, which was very creepy.

The other person released a burst of bloody light, within which there were dozens of phantoms of women with their abdomens cut open. They rushed upwards and turned into a bloody mist and dispersed.

Chu Tai was furious. The magic used by these two people were not ordinary sorcery. The former required babies, and the latter required pregnant women. They also needed to be tortured constantly during the practice, making them repeatedly on the edge of collapse. Otherwise, the "materials" needed would require hundreds or thousands of upgrades.

The effect of the magic used by the two people before them would require the blood of at least tens of thousands of people if it were achieved according to the minimum standard of "materials".

"The ghost of a beautiful woman and the blood flame? Is this how the Taoist Wutai manages the sect? With this, can it still be called the orthodox sect of Xuanmen?"

Chu Tai's eyes turned cold, and the dragon-tiger hook flew out, penetrating through the layers of dark clouds and mist, breaking through the blood-colored mist, and directly cutting off the bodies of the two.

Streams of black gas rose up, and two babies emerged from the body, ready to escape into the distance.

But Chu Tai would never give them a chance. Shao Siming raised his arm, and lotus flowers bloomed, trapping the two. Then he opened his mouth and spit out a breath of vital energy, which merged with the black mist and blood mist, and thousands of incomplete souls flew out.

"Go ahead, take revenge if you have a grudge!"

Shao Siming looked at these children and women, and gently shook the purple bamboo branch in his hand. Sweet dew fell, causing the two babies surrounded by black air to scream miserably. A series of broken souls passed through their bodies, taking away the magic power they had cultivated for many years.

The dead soul gained some vitality, and was mostly recovered by the ripples of the purple bamboo branches. It stood in the void in a daze and looked at Shao Siming.

Shao Siming stretched out her hands, and thousands of arms emerged from the void, gently hugging the children and women. The pupils of the souls who were tortured to the point of being left with only pain and despair trembled slightly. Strange lines gradually appeared on Shao Siming's body, and a painful expression appeared on her face.

Chu Tai in the distance also trembled slightly. Shi Huajin beside him saw this and asked with concern: "Master, what happened?"

"Shao Siming shared some of the pain of the dead souls. Although I was separated by a layer, the impact of the memories of the dead souls still made me feel the pain of my body being torn apart."

As he spoke, Chu Tai stretched out his hand and wisps of mist fell, following the connection and wrapping around Shao Siming's arm, covering the children and pregnant women, allowing them to forget the most painful parts of their memories.

Waves of silent crying were heard, and the dead souls shed tears.

The air was filled with gloomy energy, and Shao Siming whispered, "Cry, cry, you will feel better after crying."

Layers of emerald green light gushed out from Chu Tai's body, and the vigorous vitality once again attracted Shi Huajin's attention. Yun Yao, Yu Lisou and others also stared at Chu Tai closely, silently feeling the concepts and meanings contained in the green light: recovery, rebirth, hope and healing.

These concepts not only apply to the physical body, but also to the soul.

The souls held by Shao Siming, under the guidance of the green light, gradually walked out of the haze of the past and were able to respond to Shao Siming with a slight smile.

The women came forward with some young children to express their gratitude to Shao Siming.

Every time someone performs a salute, a very weak power of wish will rise up and fall on Shao Siming's body, forming a tiny layer of thin light.

The light accumulated and gradually turned into a round light hanging behind Shao Siming's head, making him look even more sacred.

"Go ahead. I will let you absorb their true energy and principles and purify the impurities in them. Your next life will be healthier than your current one."

When Shao Siming uttered the last sentence, the circle of light behind his head dissipated and turned into blessings that were fed back to the woman and children.

Feeling the subtle changes in themselves, the women bowed again with their children, no longer resisting the call of the underworld, and gradually disappeared in front of Shao Siming.

"Good! Good! No wonder Senior Brother Tianque thinks so highly of you, your actions are indeed in his style."

"Master Kongtuo, you are overpraising me. I don't have the compassion of Master Tianque. I just couldn't bear to see such evil happening in front of me, and I happened to be able to help the victim, so I did what I could."

Shao Siming's answer made Master Kongtuo even more delighted. He smiled and said, "You have such a heart, which means you have deep roots of goodness. I see that your Buddha nature is also not shallow. I wonder if you are interested in learning some Buddhist teachings from me?"

"I can't even learn my own Dharma, so forget about Buddhism."

Chu Tai could tell that Master Kongtuo's words were not only directed to Shao Siming, but also to himself. He decisively rejected Master Kongtuo's request through Shao Siming's mouth, and instead asked about his battle with Yu Guifang.

"Although the Buddha-transformed Golden Immortal Seal of Wutai Taoist is powerful, our Buddhist sect has also thought of ways to counter it over the years. If Senior Brother Tianque had not been in a hurry to save the souls that remained in the boundless resentment and karma, and had no time to use the protective treasure, the Golden Immortal Seal would not have been able to hurt him at all."

As Zen Master Kongtuo spoke, he opened one hand, from which a white lotus rose, with a jade plaque standing in the center of the layers of petals.

"I have the White Lotus Purity Tablet to protect me, so I am not afraid of the Golden Immortal Seal. But Yu Guifang's celestial form is quite mysterious, and I cannot resist it completely. I had to take a blow from her magic. However, Yu Guifang was worse off than me. I broke her dharma form with my Vajra Heavenly Dragon Zen, and she was also hit by my Great Prajna Zen Light Seal. She cannot use too much true energy and magic power in a short period of time."

Shao Siming nodded and was about to ask another question when the Goddess of Pure Light, covered in colorful light, slowly descended.

Jingguang greeted Master Kongtuo first, and then teased Shao Siming, "I didn't expect that your incarnation is actually a woman. It seems that you have a strong affinity with my Buddhist sect. Are you interested in learning some Guanyin methods from me? I think you are very suitable..."

When the Goddess of Pure Light said this, she looked at the circular light behind Shao Siming's head, where only a little outline was left, and her eyes were filled with emotion.

She didn't expect that the Dharma image that Chu Tai mastered in the past against Buddhism would eventually lead to such a change.

She saw clearly that although the circle of light behind Shao Siming's head had lost 99% of the prayers and gratitude, Shao Siming's action of using his vows to give back to all living beings was in line with some of the concepts of Buddhism and Taoism. Shao Siming's own compassion and power of thought were stimulated, gradually filling in the outline of the circle of light.

According to the current situation, the circle of light will be full again in three days at most, and this time it is completely materialized by Shao Siming's own thoughts. Although its power may not be as strong as the original circle of light, it is better in resisting external evil and protecting oneself. And as long as one's own thoughts do not change, the circle of light will never fade.

Therefore, in Buddhism, the status of those who hold this kind of round light is far better than those who hold the previous kind of round light.
