Wu Shattered Star River

Jiang Han's Starry Sacred Armor had thousands of scales, but he had only deduced a thousand Sanskrit characters, so not every scale was engraved with Sanskrit.

Once all the Sanskrit characters were engraved, the Starry Sacred Armor became even more magnificent. Jiang Han didn't hesitate and strode forward.

"Good!"

After taking a few steps, Jiang Han's heart jolted. The Sanskrit characters engraved on the Starry Sacred Armor further weakened the attacks from the Bodhi Tree.

Jiang Han was immediately filled with confidence. With the Sanskrit characters protecting him, he felt that the defensive power of the Starry Sacred Armor had also increased a lot. He was confident that he could at least move forward a few more yards, but whether he could reach the Bodhi Tree was unknown.

Jiang Han strode forward. With each step, the Bodhi Tree would attack once, but as long as the Starry Sacred Armor didn't break, Jiang Han wouldn't be injured.

Fifteen yards, ten yards, six yards.

Jiang Han's progress was very fast this time. In just a few breaths, he reached the previous area. He felt that the Starry Sacred Body showed no signs of breaking, and he was overjoyed. He slowed down and began to slowly move forward.

"Hmm..."

Both the Goddess Clan and the Heavenly Demons revealed surprised expressions, and even Xuan Ji was no longer calm.

Jiang Han had reached the five-yard area three days ago. After only comprehending for three days, he could actually move forward again?

Was it so easy to get close to the Bodhi Tree? Then why were there so few cultivators in history who could approach the Bodhi Tree? Could it be that Jiang Han was truly born with wisdom?

Not only the Goddess Clan and the Heavenly Demons couldn't understand, but even Xuan Ji couldn't understand.

Xuan Ji was the most enlightened disciple of the younger generation in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall, and her combat power was also the highest. She grew up in the Buddhist sect since she was a child and was considered by many high-ranking monks to be a future Bodhisattva.

She often cultivated in seclusion under the Bodhi Tree because this was the place where the Buddha attained enlightenment. She was proficient in Buddhist principles, had strong wisdom roots, and mastered hundreds of Buddhist techniques, but she couldn't enter under the Bodhi Tree.

Now, a young man like Jiang Han casually came to cultivate in seclusion for three days and was about to reach the Bodhi Tree?

This was incomprehensible to Xuan Ji, overturning her understanding and causing a ripple in her calm Buddhist heart, making her question her own learning...

Three yards, two yards, one yard!

Jiang Han had already reached one yard in front of the Bodhi Tree. The Bodhi Tree was within reach, and at this moment, he stopped.

Because he felt that if he continued to move forward, the Starry Sacred Armor wouldn't be able to withstand it.

The attacks here were extremely terrifying. Once the Starry Sacred Armor couldn't withstand it, he would be instantly torn to pieces, and even his soul wouldn't be preserved.

The Bodhi Tree was right in front of him, but he didn't dare to move at all. His heart became melancholy. Could it be that he had to continue to comprehend the patterns on the Bodhi leaves and deduce more Sanskrit characters?

He had already deduced over a thousand Sanskrit characters, and he felt that continuing to deduce would not be very meaningful. The increase in power wasn't much, and in the end, he probably still wouldn't be able to cross this one-yard distance.

"Huff, huff!"

Seeing Jiang Han stop, the Goddess Clan and the Heavenly Demons felt relieved.

If Jiang Han really reached the Bodhi Tree and obtained a Bodhi leaf, it would be a huge blow to them. They would feel extremely depressed, and their Dao hearts would be unstable.

Xuan Ji's eyes were blank. She didn't pay attention to Jiang Han and was still in self-doubt.

Historically, countless predecessors had proven that it was ineffective to rely on opportunism and tricks to approach the Bodhi Tree. Only by comprehending Buddhist teachings and principles could one reach the Bodhi Tree.

But Jiang Han had only comprehended for three days and couldn't have comprehended too many Buddhist teachings and principles. He was obviously taking shortcuts and being opportunistic.

Why was Jiang Han able to do it?

This question deeply troubled Xuan Ji, making her very puzzled.

Jiang Han didn't retreat. He found that as long as he didn't move inside, the Bodhi Tree wouldn't attack. He also didn't release the War God Bloodline and the Rage of the Demon God, so there was no period of weakness.

He looked at the Bodhi Tree, and bold thoughts appeared in his mind.

"Buzz~"

He finally decided to take a risk. Immortal power lit up in his hand, and then he condensed a hand phantom, which flew towards the Bodhi Tree. He wanted to directly grab a few Bodhi leaves back.

He was thinking a bit too much!

As soon as the hand phantom he condensed flew out, the Bodhi Tree fluctuated, and then the phantom was directly shattered and couldn't get close.

"Buzz~"

Jiang Han took out the Heavenly Beast Cauldron and released two Golden Mantis Kings. As soon as they came out, he controlled the Golden Mantis Kings to rush towards the Bodhi Tree.

The Golden Mantis Kings waved their huge blade arms and slashed towards the Bodhi Tree, seemingly wanting to chop down the Bodhi Tree.

"..."

The Goddess Clan and the Heavenly Demons were speechless. Jiang Han's courage was extraordinary. He actually wanted to chop down the Bodhi Tree?

If this tree was chopped down by him, the powerhouses of the entire Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall would be alarmed and would suppress Jiang Han in the Asura Hell for the rest of his life, right?

Xuan Ji didn't react at all. How could the Bodhi Tree be easily chopped down? Not to mention two Golden Mantis Kings, even a Celestial Emperor might not be able to shatter it. This was the Buddhist sect's sacred tree.

"Crack, crack, crack~"

Sure enough, as soon as the Golden Mantis Kings appeared, invisible fluctuations spread out, and then the two Golden Mantis Kings directly turned into dust. Fresh blood sprinkled in the air, quickly sinking into the ground and disappearing.

Having lost two Golden Mantis Kings, Jiang Han didn't care at all. He turned his gaze to Xuan Ji and said, "Master Xuan Ji, the Buddhist saying goes, among all sins, killing is the most serious. Among all merits, releasing life is the first."

"I just want to take a Bodhi leaf, why does the Bodhi Tree kill? What is the reason for this?"

Xuan Ji was still immersed in the matter of why Jiang Han could easily reach one yard in front of the Bodhi Tree. She was stunned when she heard Jiang Han's words.

She pondered for a moment and said, "The Buddhist sect doesn't easily kill living beings, but the Bodhi Tree doesn't have intelligence. Since you released the Divine Sound Golden Mantis to attack it, it will naturally retaliate."

"The Bodhi Tree doesn't have intelligence?"

Jiang Han frowned and asked, "The Buddha asked his heart under the Bodhi Tree for three thousand years before becoming a Buddha. Didn't the Buddha enlighten the Bodhi Tree in three thousand years?"

"If so, why would the Bodhi Tree become the Buddhist sect's sacred tree? What is the meaning of you worshiping a tree without intelligence, a tree that kills at every turn? In my opinion, this is not a sacred tree, but a demon tree!"

Xuan Ji was rendered speechless by Jiang Han's questions. She was silent for a moment and said, "Xuan Ji's comprehension of Buddhist teachings is crude and cannot answer Benefactor Jiang's confusion. However, everything in the world has its own reason. Be it a sacred tree or a demon tree, it all lies in one's own heart."

Jiang Han didn't say anything more. He turned his gaze to the Bodhi Tree. After watching for a while, a look of madness suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He said in a deep voice, "The Buddha once fed himself to a tiger. The Buddhist saying also goes, 'Who will go to hell if I don't?' Then today, I will also learn from the Buddha, sacrificing myself to achieve benevolence and giving up my life to take righteousness. Let's see if this tree is a sacred tree or a demon tree?"

His body suddenly rose into the air and rushed directly towards the Bodhi Tree.

"Ah?"

The Goddess Clan and the Heavenly Demons were all frightened. Was Jiang Han crazy? He actually dared to rush directly towards the Bodhi Tree?

His Starry Sacred Armor was obviously about to be unable to withstand it. Wouldn't he be minced into pieces if he rushed over like this?

Xuan Ji was also frightened. Her delicate body trembled, her expression changed drastically, and she suddenly stood up.

"Buzz~"

The Bodhi Tree trembled violently, and then countless fluctuations spread out, several times more violent than when it attacked the Golden Mantis Kings just now.

The Goddess Clan, the Heavenly Demons, and Xuan Ji widened their eyes and saw Jiang Han being covered by those invisible fluctuations. Then, the Starry Sacred Armor directly exploded, and then his body was twisted into a bloody mist...
