The Eastern Emperor of all Heavens did not wish to become a Buddha.

Chapter 43 Reversal of Mysterious Power
boom

Before everyone could fully adjust their state, powerful demonic energy surged into the sky, and three powerful demonic clouds swept in, within which stood three demonic beings that had transformed into human form.

One was clad in silver scales and flicked his tongue like a snake; another was burly with a nose like an ox; and the third had a fat head and big ears and held a rake.

'Snake demon, bull demon, pig demon.'

Seeing the three figures within the demonic clouds that were causing changes in the heavens and earth, Meng Qi and the others' expressions changed drastically, and they couldn't help but grip their weapons tightly.

These three outdoor monsters look much stronger than the previous fathead fish.

The strongest cultivator in their group was only at the Nine Apertures level. How could so many powerful cultivators from the Outer Realm appear in the Reincarnation Mission?
This time, the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation is simply not giving them a way out!

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but glance at the white-robed monk in the air.

If it weren't for the addition of the Zen Master Fahai to their team, a heaven-defying being who could slay an outer realm being with his enlightened cultivation, they probably wouldn't have had any power to resist at all.

Is this what makes a death mission so terrifying?

In mid-air, Zhong Xu looked at the three Outer Realm level demons that had appeared, and his expression became more serious.

Now, even with his full combat power, he has barely reached the level of an outer realm cultivator, but he is still no match for these three outer realm monsters.

Moreover, after using the "Ananda Breaking the Precepts Blade," he was greatly exhausted, and before completing that karmic connection, he would try his best not to use this move again.

'This cheap master really thinks highly of me!'

As thoughts raced through his mind, a pale golden light shimmered in his eyes, carrying the power to see through illusions. Finally, his gaze locked onto the demonic creature clad in silver scales.

One hand secretly formed a Buddhist mudra, and a strange demonic intent flowed within Zhong Xu's body.

Meng Qi and the others were startled. They glanced at Zen Master Fahai in mid-air without making a sound, and a look of understanding appeared in their eyes.

On the other side, after the three Outer Realm level demons from the demon clouds arrived, they looked at Benboerba's corpse, glanced at Meng Qi and the others, and finally focused their gaze on the white-robed monk in mid-air.

"Hiss."

The snake demon, its tongue flicking, let out a chilling laugh, a hint of disdain on its face: "That fool Bibo always thought too highly of himself, but I never expected him to die at the hands of a few weaklings like you. He has truly disgraced our demon race."

At this point, he first glanced warily at the two demon kings beside him, subtly creating some distance between them, and then revealed a greedy smile: "Weaklings, hand over the opportunities of the Great Sages, and I may spare your lives!"

As he spoke, the demonic energy within his body slowly circulated, and a faint crimson aura flowed around him, carrying a dizzying poisonous aura.

He naturally wouldn't let this group of humans go, and he even wanted to take the opportunity to kill the two demon kings beside him and seize the opportunity for himself.

Upon hearing the snake demon's words, the burly bull demon and the fat pig demon beside him blinked, revealing greedy glints in their eyes.

Since the Battle of Mount Ling, the Great Sages have disappeared for hundreds of years. Now that news about them has finally surfaced, how could these demon kings not be excited?

Of course, they weren't too concerned about the life or death of these Great Sages; they were more interested in the weapons, treasures, and legacies left behind by these Great Sages.

If they could obtain these, they might very well become the next generation of Great Saints of the demon race.

Upon hearing the snake demon's words, Zhong Xu's heart stirred, and with a wave of his hand, a 'Buddhist treasure' resembling a relic appeared in his palm.

"The opportunity lies here."

Upon seeing this, the snake demon, bull demon, and pig demon were initially taken aback, but sensing the compassionate Buddhist intent contained within the 'Buddha Treasure,' they couldn't help but probe over with their spiritual senses.

Just then, Zhong Xu's eyes lit up, and he put his hands together, placing the 'Buddha Treasure' in his palms.

boom

The 'Buddha Treasure' suddenly emitted a dazzling Buddhist light, which merged with Zhong Xu's aura, causing a golden Buddha to appear behind him.

"That's what I heard."

The grand and solemn Buddhist chant resounded throughout the heavens and earth, like the great bells of a great bell, echoing in the ears of the three demon kings, completely immersing them in it, as if they had realized their own enlightenment and seen the Tathagata.

"Do it!"

A cold shout rang out from Zhong Xu's mouth. He pushed both of his internal cultivation techniques to their limits. The Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram flowed within the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm, and Buddhist light and demonic intent appeared all over his body, forming a Buddhist-demonic Tai Chi diagram.

Almost the instant the Buddhist chanting began, Fu Zhenzhen took out an ancient bronze mirror and pointed it at the snake demon in the air.

The moment the snake demon's image appeared in the mirror, the entire demon froze in place, like a stone statue.

Clang

A clear, melodious sword cry rang out, and a sword light traced a mysterious trajectory, as if it came from beyond the azure sky, transcending all boundaries, transcending the limitations of time and space, and landing directly on the snake demon's brow.

The sword strike, "Sword of Selflessness," is a Dharma Body-level sword move derived from the first move of the Seven Swords of Heaven, "Slaying the Dao to Reveal Myself." At the same time, Ruan Yushu took out the Demon-Slaying Arrow and fired it with force.

A crimson arrow appeared, chasing after the demonic aura and piercing straight through the snake demon.

"what!"

The snake demon let out a shrill scream as a sword pierced its brow and an arrow left a large hole in its chest and abdomen.

However, his body remained sluggish, unable to shake off the effects of the (fake) demon-revealing mirror.

The moment the snake demon was struck, Jiang Zhiwei was also sent flying backward, spitting out blood and suffering severe injuries.

The difference between the outdoor scenery and the underground scenery is too great. Even with the mastery of the Dharma Body level sword techniques, Jiang Zhiwei cannot truly fight against the outdoor scenery monsters.

Just then, Zhong Xu appeared in front of the snake demon, his eyes filled with a mixture of Buddhist and demonic energy, his body half radiating Buddhist aura and half shrouded in demonic energy.

boom

A hand, entangled in the duality of Buddhist and demonic intent, appeared, radiating a strange aura that was both compassionate and malevolent, and descended towards the snake demon's head.

"No"

The snake demon let out a roar of resentment, and with a gulp of crimson blood mist, it spat out a mouthful.

Zhong Xu's eyes were cold and sharp. He made no attempt to avoid the crimson blood mist, but instead used all his strength to strike the snake demon.

boom

A tremendous roar resounded, and the snake demon's head, along with half of its body, exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

However, the snake demon's dying attack also landed on Zhong Xu, sending him flying backward instantly. His muscles and bones cracked and blood splattered everywhere.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Relying on the Demon-Revealing Mirror (fake) and the Demon-Slaying Arrow, two rare items that could restrain the demon race, Zhong Xu and the others quickly killed an outer-scene snake demon.

At this moment, the bull demon and the pig demon not far away also came to their senses from the Buddhist chants and saw the silvery-white snake with only half of its body remaining.

"Damn crawler"

A furious roar rang out, the bull demon's eyes flashed with ferocity, and it manifested a large, several-zhang-tall blue bull image that enveloped its entire body, directly charging at Zhong Xu, who was flying backward, with its horns.

The pig demon also raised its rake, but at that moment, Fu Zhenzhen turned the bronze mirror in her hand, reflecting its image into it, causing it to temporarily stop its movements and freeze in place.

After doing all this, the bronze mirror in her hand shattered into spiritual light and dissipated into the world.

"Bah!"

A loud shout rang out, Meng Qi's muscles bulged, his body glowed with a dark gold color, and the long sword in his hand was wrapped with lightning as he slashed directly at the bull demon.

bang
Thunder rumbled in the sky, and streaks of purple lightning fell, resembling dragons and as majestic as mountains. They merged with Meng Qi's longsword, radiating the power of divine punishment.

This is the Purple Thunder Blade Technique, which incorporates the true meaning of the Thunder God's inheritance, 'Nine Annihilations of the Divine Firmament,' and its raging thunder shakes the nine heavens.

boom

The moment Meng Qi collided with the bull demon, it was as if he had collided with a mountain. An unimaginable force swept over him, and the Undying Seal Technique within his body, which could turn death into life, and the ability to borrow and deflect force, was completely useless.

A dark golden color flowed around him, and a bronze bell vaguely enveloped his entire body. But then a crackling sound rang out, the bronze bell dissipated, and the "Golden Bell Shield" technique was directly broken.

puff

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Meng Qi was instantly sent flying backward, completely losing his fighting ability.

At the moment Meng Qi blocked the bull demon, Zhong Xu also caught his breath.

Having withstood the snake demon's desperate attack before its death, he was not only severely injured but also poisoned by the snake venom.

Seeing the charging blue ox, Zhong Xu's gaze turned unusually cold, and the demonic intent in his eyes completely overwhelmed his Buddhist nature.

Buzz

A strange fluctuation appeared, and the profound power within Zhong Xu's body completely reversed. The compassionate Buddhist intent dissipated, replaced by endless intent to kill and destroy.

A chilling demonic aura swept across the heavens and earth, making the entire world seem even more desolate.

Meng Qi and the others felt a tremor in their hearts and subconsciously turned their gazes to see a white-robed monk surrounded by endless demonic energy.
