Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Is Chapter 877 finished?

Ji An recalled a night on Rotten Peach Mountain when the Netherworld True Lord released his Nascent Soul Dharma Form.

At that time, the sandstorm obscured the moonlight, forming a distorted human face. A chilling wind swept over him, and his body trembled instinctively.

At that time, he was a cultivator in the Chaoyuan stage. He traveled to the Southern Continent to obtain Qi. Not long after, he obtained the gourd stone from a cultivator of the Disha Sect.

He was very surprised by Shi Xiu's appearance, and the thought flashed through his mind: 'Something's happened in Nanzhou!'

The cultivators of the Earthly Fiend Sect have always preferred to stay in the sect's underground caves to raise and refine corpses. They will not go out unless necessary, and even when they do go out, it is to find better materials for raising corpses.

The strongest member of the Earthly Fiend Sect is now being chased by two Buddhist cultivators. There are countless possibilities behind this, but every possibility indicates that the situation is not good.

If the Netherworld True Lord was ambushed and pursued outside the sect, it indicates that the Buddhist cultivators' infiltration of the Southern Continent is very serious.

But the most worrying situation is that the gate of the Earthly Fiend Sect is besieged by the Buddhist monks, while the Netherworld True Lord is desperately trying to break out.

Soon, the three of them, one chasing and the other fleeing, arrived at a place more than twenty miles away. Ji An immediately rode a cloud to meet them.

He didn't have a good impression of the Netherworld True Lord, but he was a natural ally of Shi Xiu and the others, so he had to at least find out what had happened.

His hands, concealed within his sleeves, formed hand seals, preparing to unleash the Taibai Extinction Sword, while simultaneously shouting:

"True Lord, I am Xuanqing True Lord of the Golden Spirit Sect of the Western Continent, and I have come here to assist you!"

First, announce your identity to let the other party know that you are "one of us".

He could tell that the Netherworld True Lord was not in good condition, and that rushing forward would only lead to misunderstandings.

Upon encountering an unexpected enemy, the two pursuing Buddhist monks abandoned their previous leisurely pace and accelerated their pursuit by activating their Buddhist light. At the same time, they both unleashed their Buddhist treasures to launch a fierce attack.

The reason they were in such a hurry to attack was that they didn't want to put too much pressure on their opponent. That zombie was incredibly powerful, and Buddhist techniques were supposed to be the most effective against such zombies, but for some reason they couldn't defeat it.

Another very important point is that the enemy's heart has been pierced by the golden hoe, and his magical power, flesh and blood are in violent conflict with the Buddha's light.

The longer time passes, the weaker the enemy becomes. Unless a disruptor appears, they will continue to use the bleeding tactic.

Liao Chen shouted in a low voice:
"Junior brother, don't hold back, finish this quickly."

An enemy willing to step forward at such a moment must be confident in their own strength; otherwise, why would they bother with such trivial matters and would rather flee far away?

They still had their trump card to use. Using that Buddhist treasure would consume precious resources, but they couldn't care less about that now.

The light emanating from the two Buddhist monks surged, and their speed more than doubled.

Liao Chen activated the Vajra Pestle, and a bronze lamp appeared behind him, radiating a peaceful, milky-white Buddhist light. Taiyin Yue Shi, whose face was covered in frost as she turned to face the enemy, looked bewildered and remained motionless.

This Buddhist artifact can suppress the souls of beings who do not practice Buddhism. If their soul power is not strong enough, they will immediately fall into a Buddhist illusion.

However, burning Buddhist treasures requires extremely precious lamp oil, which needs to be refined from Bodhi tree spiritual fruits and leaves of level four or above, and at the same time, the petals of the Golden Lotus of Merit are added, and it is then refined with Buddhist teachings for eighty-one days.

The spiritual liquid extracted from Bodhi fruit and leaves is not particularly precious, but the Golden Lotus of Merit is like a precious spiritual root of heaven and earth to Buddhist practitioners. Its survival conditions are harsh, and it can only be transformed into a true Golden Lotus by being watered with the Xuanhuang merit energy.

The Netherworld True Lord never expected that the corpse he had entrusted with his life would turn out to be so unpredictable. This corpse had saved his life countless times and brought him countless glories; it was no exaggeration to say that he had entrusted his life to it.

He was also affected by the light emitted by the bronze lamp, but his nascent soul immediately released bursts of black yin energy, which dispersed the Buddhist light that had entered his Niwan Palace.

However, this change also caused him to lose the initiative, and by the time he realized that the enemy's attack was about to hit him, it was too late to react.

The heart injury wasn't fatal for him, but it severely hampered his reaction time, making it impossible for him to dodge.

He was not lacking in decisiveness. With a determined heart, the nascent soul, shrouded in yin energy, escaped from the Niwan Palace. The black energy dissolved in the light emitted by the Buddhist treasure, but the nascent soul was incredibly fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Almost at the same moment, the Vajra Pestle struck the head of the Netherworld True Lord, while Liao Chen's junior brother's Vajra Raft struck his chest again, widening the original wound.

Ji An's forward flight slowed down; too many things had happened in the blink of an eye, and the situation had taken a sharp turn for the worse.

He originally thought that the Netherworld God could hold on, but unexpectedly he was unable to withstand a round of concentrated fire from the enemy. The fact that the Taiyin Moon Corpse remained motionless at the critical moment made him even more worried.

The monks used methods beyond his comprehension to make him decide against close-quarters combat.

At this moment, he saw the Buddhist monks put away the Buddhist treasures, and the Taiyin Moon Corpse fell straight down from the sky.

Liao Chen shrank the vajra and hid it in his sleeve. "I will attract the opponent's attention from the front, and my junior brother will wait for the opportunity to act."

For example, the Sea Monk King led many other monk kings and more than 10,000 low-level disciples to besiege the Earthly Fiend Sect. They built more than a dozen Buddhist array nodes outside the mountain gate, which could interfere with the flow of spiritual energy in the spiritual veins.

In this way, the protective mountain formation would be slowed down during the fierce siege. The Buddhist formation was specifically designed to attack the tortoise shell-like protective mountain formation. After half a year of relentless siege, the Earthly Fiend Sect's protective mountain formation experienced a vacuum of about one second. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Sea Monk King led five Reincarnation Realm Monk Kings and Dharma Protectors into the formation. Those cultivators who were refining corpses and desecrating corpses were reduced to ashes under the illumination of the Buddhist light.

The Liao Chen brothers were not originally involved in the attack on the Di Sha Sect's mountain gate. Instead, they were ordered to lead their disciples to capture passing cultivators on the outskirts and block their access.

For some unknown reason, no cultivators passed by within a hundred miles of the Earthly Fiend Sect's mountain gate.

They were unaware that because the Earthly Fiend Sect was known for its domineering nature, cultivators near its gates would mysteriously disappear, so no other cultivators would ever pass by the Earthly Fiend Sect.

Not only the Earthly Fiend Sect, but also the Shadowless Sect is in a similar situation. The mountain gates of these two Nascent Soul sects, the only two in the Southern Continent, are forbidden zones in the eyes of other forces.

When Liao Chen and his fellow disciples were bored, they encountered the Netherworld True Lord who had broken through the encirclement. The Buddhist cultivators' techniques and Buddhist light had a powerful restraining effect on corpses and yin spirits.

The two cultivators, whose cultivation levels were equivalent to the fourth level of the Nascent Soul stage, joined forces to defeat the Netherworld True Monarch, who had broken through to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage, and forced him to flee in terror.

The two monks and Ji An stopped advancing at the same time, and the three of them hovered in the air, only about two miles apart.

Liao Chen placed one hand vertically in front of him and said, "Greetings, benefactor."

His speech was in a Middle-earth accent, making it impossible to tell that he came from another land.

Because Ji An had concealed the fluctuations of his spiritual energy, he had no idea how powerful the person opposite him was. According to intelligence, there were no cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage in the Southern Continent and the Western Continent, which gave him confidence.

Ji An narrowed his eyes slightly, then suddenly activated several Five Directions Banners and launched an attack.

The Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner remained beside him, while the other four spiritual treasures suddenly took flight, circling around and surrounding the two Buddhist cultivators.

Liao Chen sneered, "Benefactor, the nameless karmic fire rises three thousand feet high; be careful not to get burned."

As he spoke, he and his junior brother activated their Buddhist light and charged towards Ji An.

With the protection of the Buddhist bronze lamp, he believed that even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator would perish.

However, lamp oil was precious, and he thought it best not to use bronze lamps if possible.

Ji An multitasked, simultaneously activating all five of the Five Elements Spiritual Treasures. In an instant, different colors of the Five Elements spiritual energy surged out from the spiritual treasures, plunging the sky and earth into darkness, and obscuring the sun and moon.

This is his exploration of the use of the Five Banners, releasing the power of the spiritual treasure to create a domain under his control, much like a weakened Nascent Soul Dharma Image.

He only decided to do this on a whim after sensing the cultivation levels of the two Buddhist monks. When his cultivation level was high enough to overwhelm them, he felt confident enough to test out his new methods. The only thing he needed to be careful about was preventing the enemy from getting close.

With a thought, the nascent soul Dharma form was instantly summoned, the vast ocean's blue waves surged, and the bright full moon rose.

Having broken through to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, his Dharma form is different from before.

Previously, no matter how real the Dharma form appeared, it was essentially just an illusion. Now, after the Dharma form manifested, one could feel the surge of water-elemental spiritual energy, as if a water-elemental spiritual vein had appeared out of thin air.

The air was filled with the salty dampness of the sea breeze, and the sound of the waves grew louder and louder.

At the same time, a five-colored mountain appeared in the sky, its size rapidly increasing, and then a ball of five-colored spiritual light shone on the advancing monk.

Liao Chen felt as if the air was filled with lead, and his speed immediately came to a complete stop, as if space had been frozen by an invisible force.

The surging waves engulfed him, and he discovered that these things, which should have been illusory, were like real flowing water, and the protective Buddha light was slowly dissolving within the Dharma image.

He was filled with utter shock, knowing that he had encountered an existence he could not contend with.

Although his body was unable to move, his mind remained unaffected. He used all his strength to activate the Buddha's light and the bronze lamp, which was his last hope.

The Buddha statue emitted a warm light, pushing aside the waves manifested by its form. He found he could move his body slightly and silently chanted, 'May the Buddha have mercy!'

The next moment, the moonlight suddenly shone brightly, and then the Buddhist light emanating from the brothers Liao Chen and the bronze lamp suddenly went out, and a huge shadow fell.

"Oh!"

The Five Elements Divine Mountain landed steadily on the ground with a deep, resonant sound, as if a giant peak had truly fallen, causing the earth to tremble.

"That's it?"

Ji An frowned slightly. Just now, when he activated his Dharma form, he saw the enemy's protective Buddhist light melt away like ice and snow under the scorching sun in an instant. Then, he was knocked down from the void by the Five Elements Divine Mountain and smashed into the ground.

He felt that all of this was too easy, and he hadn't even had time to test whether the domain formed by the Five Banners was useful, nor had he had time to release the Taibai Extinction Sword that he had been holding back.

As the Five Elements Divine Mountain slowly rose into the sky, Ji An saw two slabs of meat and scattered fragments of bronze lamps on the ground. Several Buddhist cultivators who had fought against him had met the same fate.
