Chapter 251: Six-Armed Blood Arhat
Chapter 251: Six-Armed Blood Arhat
After Song Bei revealed the function of the Blood Locust Tree Heart from the Blood Crow Meat Locust Tree, everyone changed their strategy.
They decided to first thoroughly deal with this Blood Crow Meat Locust Tree and then head to the Blood Zen Temple.
As for the Blood Locust Tree Heart, Song Bei would have the first choice. If he wanted it, he would have to pay the corresponding difference.
Over the next few days, Song Chi and the other ten people controlled the Flame Torch Warship to concentrate their fire on the rule domain light barrier below. The result was as expected.
The Cobalt Number was equipped with a [Shadow Demon Cannon], a secondary cannon that weakens shield values, and the other nine warships were similarly equipped.
Under the bombardment of various shield-piercing and armor-piercing cannons, combined with the fact that the Blood Crow Meat Locust Tree was only a half-step fourth-rank, even with the Floating Continent Essence's rule enhancement, giving it the combat power of a regular fourth-rank, its understanding of the law could not be faked. The combination of these factors led to the complete destruction of the Blood Crow Meat Locust Tree.
Song Bei naturally claimed the Blood Locust Tree Heart first, compensating with 126 strands of fourth-rank Floating Continent Essence and 900 strands of third-rank Floating Continent Essence.
The other nine people each received 14 strands of fourth-rank + 100 strands of third-rank Floating Continent Essence.
Everyone was relatively satisfied with this outcome. According to the Floating Continent Essence that Song Bei provided, it was equivalent to the price of an Orange Supreme Upgrade Fire Source, which would be around 300 gold achievement points at the family achievement tower, not a small amount.
Additionally, apart from the Blood Locust Tree Heart, there was a half-step fourth-rank life crystal and the entire Blood Locust Tree, but these were not of high value and would be distributed after being handed over to the family.
The biggest gain, however, was the secret realm itself.
Though it was a broken secret realm, whether used as a hidden base for the family on the Demon Buddha Continent or brought back to the Longji Continent as part of the family's foundation, it was a significant contribution, and the family would certainly reward them.
"Alright, we've already informed the family through the Flame Torch Network. We don't need to worry about it. Let's head to the Blood Zen State."
The ten people set off again.
In the main control room of the Cobalt Number, Song Chi felt a bit nostalgic. The reason they could so easily kill this half-step fourth-rank Blood Crow Meat Locust Tree was that they had many intangible advantages.
For example, the enemy could not move, and the countless Blood Crows could not seriously harm the fast Flame Torch Warships, leaving it to passively defend. This was the greatest advantage for the Flame Torch Warships, which were not lacking in long-range firepower.
Additionally, the rules in this damaged secret realm were incomplete, much weaker than those in the Shattered Star Sea. This also weakened the Blood Crow Meat Locust Tree's understanding of the law, significantly reducing its combat power.
Therefore, while Song Chi was happy, he did not underestimate the two half-step fourth-rank Evil Buddha Clan members at the Blood Zen Temple.
Those two were not such weaklings; they had genuine fourth-rank peak combat power under the enhancement of the Floating Continent Essence rules. Although their understanding of the law could not compare to true fourth-rank life, they had the assistance of special Buddhist instruments, which could not be ignored.
In the past, in those immortal and fantasy novels, magical artifacts and treasures were always extremely important.
...
The Blood Zen State is located in the southern part of the Hundred-Arms Domain, and the Blood Zen Temple, the strongest Evil Buddha Clan force in the Blood Zen State, is situated in the center of the Blood Zen State.
On the dark red mountain body, there is an ancient suspended temple carved into the mountain. Only the blue stone temple gate, engraved with ancient Buddhist script, is visible. On the stone gate, the three large characters "Evil Buddha Temple" are inscribed in a faint blood glow, using the unique Buddhist script of the Evil Buddha Clan.
Ten thousand miles away, ten Flame Torch Warships are hidden in the void.
Looking at the image of the Evil Buddha Temple displayed on the screen, the ten Flame Torch Warships are like ten lurking hunters, quietly accumulating the most powerful attack methods for the next move.
The group has been at the periphery of the Evil Buddha Temple for two days, waiting for the search results from Song Gang on the Night Harbor Ship.
The Night Harbor Ship is equipped with a special component called [Curiosity Seeker], which can search for Star Sea rarities from a distance.
However, each activation of this component lasts only a short time, and the area it can search at once is limited.
Moreover, the interior of the Evil Buddha Temple is filled with a dense and strange Buddhist force, which further limits the search range of the [Curiosity Seeker]. Over the two days, they have only managed to search about a third of the temple's interior.
Song Chi and the others were not in a hurry.
If they could locate the position of the Bodhisattva Sarira first, the time spent would be worth it, as it would greatly increase their chances of success in subsequent actions.
Additionally, Song Ze and others needed to make some other preparations.
Five days later, a slightly excited voice came from the Night Harbor Ship.
"Found it. The Bodhisattva Sarira is placed at the left side of the temple, at the XXXX, XXXX coordinates."
With the coordinates, everyone looked at their clan brother Song Wenbo, whose task it was to enter the Evil Buddha Temple and search for it.
Seeing Song Wenbo nod, Song Ze, at the center of the ten warships, wasted no time.
"Since the target location is confirmed, we'll move tomorrow to avoid any unforeseen circumstances."
"Good!"
...
A brilliant beam of light, like a meteor streaking across the sky, created a colorful rainbow against the dark, blood-red sky.
"Hum, ma, ni, bai, mi, hum!"
Deafening Buddhist chants echoed continuously from the thousands-of-meters-tall blue stone temple gate, causing cause and effect to revolve, endlessly.
"Swastika!"
In the main hall of the temple, the thousand-meter-tall Evil Buddha, seated on a human skin mat, suddenly opened its tightly closed eyes. A curse symbol condensed behind it, propelled by the boundless Buddhist force around it, and rushed toward the temple gate.
Outside the blue stone temple gate, the swastika symbol, enhanced by the boundless Buddhist force, rapidly expanded to thousands of meters and met the concentrated fire from the warships.
Terrifying energy continuously poured out, and the intense heat distorted the entire void.
No matter how powerful the swastika symbol was, it could not withstand the concentrated fire from over a hundred cannons, even with the enhancement of the thousands of years of Buddhist force condensed by the Evil Buddha Temple.
In the second second of the stalemate, it collapsed, and the remaining fire power penetrated the blue stone temple gate.
Boom! Debris flew everywhere, followed by countless cries of pain. Even with the majority of the fire power absorbed by the swastika symbol, the remaining fire power was still formidable.
Buddhist light surged, and two thousand-meter-tall Evil Buddha Clan members rushed out of the temple, standing in the air. A large amount of Buddhist force radiated from their bodies, and the eyes that had been indifferent for centuries now burned with anger.
"Blood Sun Devouring Fetus Buddha, disturbing the peace of my temple, shall be eternally imprisoned in the Buddhist Hell!!!"
Cold characters floated, and the sky began to stir, enveloped by the boundless Buddhist force, two half-step fourth-rank Evil Buddha Clan members gathered a blood-red six-armed Evil Buddha phantom around their bodies.
Ten thousand miles away, Song Chi, Song Ze, Song Gang, Song Bei, and the other six people's flagships were gently swaying. The temple had been mysteriously attacked, which seemed to make the two Evil Buddha Clan members feel that their dignity had been trampled upon. They wanted to make Song Chi and the others pay the price, so they directly revealed their Fourth-Rank Peak aura.
Under this astonishing pressure, even from a distance of ten thousand miles, Song Chi and the others' flagships were affected.
"Be careful, everyone. The Six-Armed Blood Arhat Golden Body Phantom seems to be using full strength..."
After speaking, the six warships turned as if they had already agreed, quickly retreating to the rear.
Of course, even while fleeing, the warships did not forget to open fire, continuously bombarding the two Evil Buddha Clan members enveloped in the Arhat golden body phantom.
Inside the Cobalt Number, a hint of joy appeared in Song Chi's eyes. As they had expected, the two Evil Buddha Clan members were unwilling to let them go so easily. Buddha power surged around them, transforming into two afterimages as they pursued.
After the six warships and the two semi-Fourth-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members disappeared from sight, the four people hiding in the shadows, including Song Wenbo, did not rush to appear. They waited for another ten minutes until Song Chi and the others had lured the two semi-Fourth-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members far enough away. Only then did the four warships quickly rush out, heading straight for the Evil Buddha Temple.
Apart from them, six Third-Rank eerie evil spirits and fallen evil beings also emerged from the surrounding mountains and fields. These were the creatures that Song Ze and the others had enslaved in the area over the past few days. They would also join the four warships in dealing with the remaining dozens of Third-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members in the temple.
"Ugh..."
Among the six enslaved creatures, there was a Third-Rank "Wailing Soul Woman" who was now emitting a sharp, mournful wail at the temple's stone gate. This Wailing Soul Woman was a native of the Evil Buddha Continent and naturally had the enhancement of the Floating Land Origin Rule. Under this enhancement, her mournful wail had a soul-seizing power that barely reached the Fourth Rank, affecting most of the Evil Buddha Clan members in the temple despite their infinite Buddha power.
After all, Third-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members were a minority in the temple, with more being First-Rank and Second-Rank.
At the same time, Song Wenbo and the others released the puppet war puppets from their warships. These war puppets were all pseudo-Fourth-Rank. Once they rushed into the Evil Buddha Temple, they immediately began slaughtering the First-Rank and Second-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members.
Finally, the Third-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members could no longer stay. Although they were only slightly affected by the soul-seizing power, they could not ignore the effects on the lower-rank Evil Buddha Clan members below them.
One by one, the Third-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members rushed out of the temple, heading straight for the Wailing Soul Woman. Seeing this, Song Wenbo and the others did not let them have their way. The four warships split into two groups, with three guarding the Wailing Soul Woman and engaging in a fierce battle with the dozens of Third-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members.
On the other side, Song Wenbo activated a special component on his flagship. Soon, the warship disappeared from its original location and reappeared, rushing into the Evil Buddha Temple.
...
Now, let's talk about the battlefield between the Cobalt Number and the other five warships and the two semi-Fourth-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members.
Buddha light shone, and the true doctrines of the Buddha Door appeared in the void. Each attack from the Six-Armed Blood Arhat Golden Body Phantom significantly weakened the energy shields of the Flame Torch Warships in front of them.
Inside the Cobalt Number.
[Warship under attack. Current energy shield value: 52%. Ship hull armor damage: 18%. Please repair as soon as possible!]
Since the Six-Armed Blood Arhat Phantom was also formed from energy, its attacks could not ignore the energy shields of the Flame Torch Warships. This was undoubtedly good news for Song Chi and the others.
However, the enhancement of the Floating Land Origin Rule on the Evil Buddha Continent was even more terrifying than they had imagined. Each Fourth-Rank Peak attack could significantly reduce the shield value.
This was also why Song Chi's Cobalt Number, equipped with the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield of silver quality and the Central Star Nuclear Armor with its regenerative properties, could still maintain 52% of its shield value after two minutes.
Like Song Ze's flagship, which had already activated its repair components thirty seconds ago, its energy shield value was now almost depleted, and he had just called for Song Gang to take over in the communication group chat.
Here, Song Chi, who was multitasking, roughly deduced the two components on Song Ze's flagship.
"It should be an orange energy shield of level 45 or higher + a purple hull armor of level 49..."
Having obtained the answer, his mind quickly returned to focus on controlling the Cobalt Number to continue the entanglement with the semi-Fourth-Rank Evil Buddha Clan.
Although he could have let another clan member take over, he did not do so because the longer he persisted, the greater his contribution would be.
Of course, the key was that the Cobalt Number was still holding up well, with 52% of its shield value and its red hull armor still in almost 80% condition, which could last for some time.
Not far to the side, the Night Harbor took over Song Ze's position. Unlike Song Chi and Song Ze, its bow suddenly turned, and a special ram replaced the main cannon, then fiercely collided with the Evil Buddha Clan member it faced.
This sudden frontal collision left the semi-Fourth-Rank Evil Buddha Clan member somewhat dazed, and it also caused some damage unexpectedly.
Time passed, and soon another two minutes went by. Seeing that the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield had fallen below 10%, Song Chi voluntarily withdrew, replaced by the clan brother who took over.
With the "Central Star Nuclear-Pulse" characteristic, the Cobalt Number could restore 4% of its energy shield value every 20 seconds. Even with just two minutes, it could restore 24%, plus the previous remaining value, easily restoring to over 30%. He naturally would not let it easily overload.
After one and a half minutes, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed. The two semi-Fourth-Rank Evil Buddha Clan members seemed to have received some message from the Evil Zen Temple. They no longer bothered to tangle with the six warships. Buddha power surged around them, and a powerful energy wave pushed the six warships thousands of meters away, while they themselves retreated in the direction they came from.
Seeing this, Song Ze's urgent voice echoed in the communication group chat.
"Clan Brother Song Bei, quickly..."
Without needing his reminder, seeing the two Evil Buddha Clan members about to leave, Song Bei and another clan brother each fired a beam from their warships.
The result was obvious. Although the effect was far less than before due to the influence of the Floating Land Origin Rule on the Evil Buddha Continent, it was still enough to momentarily bind the two Evil Buddha Clan members.
