Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

Before the attack could stop, another enormous beast appeared before them, its eyes flashing with crimson light, and it let out a deafening roar.

The eleventh day of the Buddha's Twin Body's general, Yitian Jin, made his move. Combined with the evil power of the giant beast, the momentum was so great that it could move mountains and overturn seas, shaking the heavens and splitting the earth.

Luo Hou smiled coldly and summoned Ji Du's sword.

"Kidu Breaks the Sun, go!"

The powerful sword energy shook the heavens, dimmed the sun, and pulverized all the lowly minions. Eleven days later, the Forbidden One appeared, wounded.

The giant beast was cut in half at the waist.

"Ho~ho~"

Unexpectedly, the giant beast rose from the ground, pieced its two severed pieces back together, and charged at Rahu once more.

"Have I been too lenient?"

Luo Hou struck out with a palm.

The Sun-Eating Palm is the nemesis of evil spirits; the giant beast, struck by this attack, instantly vanished.

Such power stunned the evil spirits, and no one moved an inch. Luo Hou looked around: "Are there any more challengers?"

The eleven-day forbidden warriors thought themselves powerful, but upon seeing the god-like Luo Hou, they all silently avoided eye contact, and no one dared to utter a sound.

"Aside from the Buddha's Twin Bodies and the Enemy of Heaven, the evil spirits are truly a disappointing race. Those who have lost, get out!"

Luo Hou swept his palm, and all the thousands of demons inside the Demon Tower were shaken out. The weakest of them exploded and died, and several others in the Eleven Heavens Forbidden Zone were also injured.

"Uh~ I didn't expect that besides the Twin Seats and the Evil Rider, there would be someone with such strength."

"Although Luo Hou is strong, he does not know the secrets. Let the Xuanpin at the top of the Demon World Pagoda take his life."

"Yes."

Eleven days later, Jin silently waited outside the Demon Tower, hoping that Xuanpin would create a miracle.

The Demon Tower was completely wiped out, and no one could stop Luo Hou anymore. He climbed to the top of the Demon World Pagoda, where he saw layers upon layers of green silk threads and filthy saliva flowing everywhere.

"Ah, the Spider Cave, but I am not Tang Sanzang."

Within the green silk threads, a massive cocoon of the mysterious female was wrapped, radiating an eerie glow.

Luo Hou walked over and was about to pick up the Xuanpin.

Suddenly, countless threads shot out, binding Luo Hou's feet, and then climbing and multiplying up his body, quickly wrapping him up like a big dumpling.

At this moment, the silk thread began to absorb the primordial energy within Luo Hou's body and transmit it back to the Xuanpin.

"interesting."

Although the power of the Mysterious Female was absorbed by the Buddha's Twin Bodies, the Mysterious Female Mother Blood in the Demon World Pagoda, under the influence of evil forces for millions of years, has developed intelligence and has begun to actively absorb all the energy that comes near.

Luo Hou's powerful demonic energy became the best supplement for Xuanpin.

The large dumpling was gradually pulled into the center of the Xuanpin's silk net. After a moment, the Xuanpin stirred and emitted an eerie, malevolent light.

The eleven Heavenly Forbidden Guards, waiting outside the Demon Tower, sensed Xuanpin's reaction and burst into loud laughter: "No matter how powerful Luo Hou is, he will become Xuanpin's bait."

"This is what happens when you fight against evil spirits."

"Hehehehe, Luo Hou was eaten by Xuan Pin!"

"Wait, why is this fetal movement so intense?"

A massive evil light enveloped the entire Demon World Pagoda, evil currents surged outwards, the earth trembled, and even the eleven Heavenly Barriers outside could not stand firm and began to shake.

Immediately, a loud shout rang out from the top of the tower: "Break!"

A peerless, mad figure reappeared in the sky; Luo Hou, holding the blood-red Xuanpin, strode away.

Countless evil spirits stared blankly at the sky.

Before the narrow pass, Huang Quan paced anxiously, repeatedly wanting to jump down to find out what was going on, but also worried that if he left, foreign enemies would break in.

Just as he was growing impatient, the earth suddenly trembled, and a golden figure flew out from the depths.

"You finally came out."

"Use your magic to replicate this blood of the Mysterious Female Mother for me."

Luo Hou placed a blood-soaked object into Huang Quan's hand.

Huang Quan was taken aback: "You want to give Su Huanzhen fake goods?"

"good."

"You... you've actually become so cunning, but I like it very much."

"you misunderstood."

Huang Quan didn't care whether it was a misunderstanding or not. He was inexplicably happy at the thought of being able to trick Su Huanzhen, and immediately activated his spell.

"Bright fire, Zhu Yi, worship of the four gods, deceiving the genuine with the fake, huh!"

A flash of red light appeared, and a blood-red object identical to the Xuanpin appeared in Huang Quan's hand.

"What amazing magic! But which part is real and which part is fake?"

It seemed to be the first time Huang Quan had been praised by Luo Hou. He was very pleased with himself and put away the real Xuanpin, handing over the fake one to Luo Hou.

"I really want to keep this as a souvenir."

"Keep this safe, it will be of great use in the future. I'm going to Deer Park to find Su Huanzhen."

"Yes, I'm going back to Tiandu, lest someone overestimate themselves and try to take Haozi away."

The two parted ways, with Rahu heading towards the Buddhist holy site where the Buddha's dual bodies were imprisoned.

The Deer Garden Monastery was built by the Buddha Emperor Yu Zhixiang of the Nine Realms. Its scale was even larger than that of the Ten Thousand Saints Rock, with a total of eight courtyards, four platforms, twin pagodas, and five bright kings.

The Buddha Emperor had joined forces with Yi Ye Shu to defeat the Twin Buddhas of Buddha's Destiny a long time ago, but they were unable to destroy the Twin Buddhas' primordial spirits. Knowing that the Twin Demons would inevitably make a comeback in the future, he went into seclusion to cultivate the Twelve Heavenly Guardians, intending to combine them with Yi Ye Shu's Eight Dragon God Fire to completely annihilate the Twin Buddhas.

Unexpectedly, the Abandoned Emperor suddenly descended upon the Bitter Realm. In order to send the old Abandoned Emperor away, Yi Ye Shu not only used the Eight Dragon God Fires, but also suffered serious injuries himself, and has not yet recovered.

When the Buddha-Dual Body invaded the Realm of Suffering, the Buddha-Emperor chose self-sacrifice, transforming his unparalleled foundation into a hundred lamps to trap the Buddha-Dual Body and buy time for the righteous path in the Realm of Suffering.

Chapter 11 Deer Park, One Vehicle; A Hundred Lamps, Joint Admonition

On a mountain peak dozens of miles from Deer Park, Su Huanzhen waited quietly.

Luo Hou came to him and handed him the fake Xuanpin.

"Thank you, Lord Wu. I will repay this kindness."

"No need."

Standing atop the mountain, gazing into the Deer Park, Rahu saw rows of red lanterns, which were the manifestation of the Buddha's foundation and the power of the holy monk's vow to save people from suffering.

One lantern represents a day, and a hundred lanterns can confine the Buddha's dual body for a hundred days.

How many days are left?

Su Huanzhen, who was always calculating time, immediately replied, "Sixty-five days left."

"It's a pity that this sacred Buddhist site has now become a stronghold for evil spirits."

Su Huanzhen said with shame, "It is my incompetence that I could not stop the evil spirits from invading, and instead caused many high monks of Deer Garden to be injured or killed."

"The suffering is so great that you alone cannot bear it."

"Therefore, I am grateful for Lord Wu's help. If everyone were like Lord Wu, how could the Bitter Realm be humiliated by foreign tribes?"

Luo Hou thought to himself: Helping you comes at the cost of one's life, like Mu Shaoai, Qu Huaishang, Shang Qingyi... which one of them didn't die and disappear?

However, it was precisely because these people stepped forward in times of crisis that the Bitter Realm was able to repel wave after wave of invaders.

Luo Hou was silent for a moment, then asked, "Are you confident in dealing with Wen Tian's enemy?"

"Wen Tiandi is Senior Yi Ye Shu's nemesis. He is the greatest threat to entering the Hundred Lanterns Alliance. I can only join forces with Qianye to fight him to the death. But I am worried that without me and Qianye, the situation of killing the Buddha's dual bodies will become more complicated."

“I still have a battle agreement with Wentian’s enemy. If Su Xianren needs it, I can arrange a battle with him tomorrow.”

Su Huanzhen instantly breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Martial Lord."

"but……"

Su Huanzhen's heart leaped again: "Please speak, Martial Lord."

"Tian Du has been in disrepair for many years and leaks when it rains. I would like to borrow some money from Master Su to renovate Tian Du."

"silver?"

The change in style was too abrupt; the solemn atmosphere from just moments ago vanished instantly.

Su Huanzhen couldn't believe his ears. Was Wu Jun Luo Hou asking him for money?

Su Zhenhuan has plenty of money.

The villains killed in the Bitter Realm over the years all had their wealth transferred to Su Huanzhen under Qin Jiaxian's name; otherwise, where would Su Huanzhen's numerous properties come from?

Money was a huge problem for Luo Hou.

He has to support four people and one child. He neither farms, nor does he do business, nor does he rob or steal. Where does the money come from?

After retiring, the King of Heaven and Earth still had to sell duck heads from Dongshan. Yin Chuan Butterfly Lord also earned his money by working as an assassin. If Luo Hou wanted to live in the Bitter Realm for a long time, he had to solve the problems of food, clothing, shelter and transportation first.

“Of course, I will deliver it to Lord Wu tomorrow.”

The next day.

The breeze was warm and the flowers were fragrant; everyone was in a good mood.

Outside the Deer Garden, Wen Tiandi led a portion of the Eleven Forbidden Days forces to defend the Hundred Lanterns Joint Array.

Suddenly, a letter arrived.

Wen Tiandi accepted the challenge: "A challenge? Hmph, Luo Hou arrived quickly!"

Having just had his Xuanpin essence stolen by Rahu, and now being challenged to a duel, Wentiandi was immediately displeased and tore the challenge letter to shreds.

"Is this a challenge from Rahu?"

"It is only natural to settle old scores and grudges, but the time he has set for the duel is tonight at midnight, which happens to be the first dark day of the ten-day period of the Hundred Lamps Reunion."

"This is Su Huanzhen's conspiracy, a diversionary tactic. Does Xie Cheng still want to go to war?"
