Chapter 392: Capturing Lin Dong and the Sorceress! Self-Sacrificing Buddha! (Part 2)
Currently, due to his young age, Shi Hao was indeed not as powerful as Long Aojiao, but Long Aojiao was also quite wary of Shi Hao. Moreover, this brat's actions were truly 'unbearably mischievous,' causing Long Aojiao a great deal of headache.
"Then let's go ahead."
Xiao Ling Er nodded and said, "Shi Hao may have some childlike qualities, but his character is impeccable. His experiences from childhood to now have made him far more measured than his peers. We can trust him."
YaYa nodded, "Indeed, Junior Brother might be more measured than all of us."
In YaYa's view...
After all, he would become the future Wasteland Sky Emperor! His life has been harder and more bitter than anyone else's.
But...
He is also more 'magnificent' than anyone else! If they couldn't trust Shi Hao, who could they trust?
Thus, they continued on, but slowed their pace slightly, waiting for Shi Hao to catch up.
Before long, Shi Hao indeed caught up.
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But as he approached, their faces instantly twitched violently, their eyelids fluttered, and their lips quivered.
Shi Hao was actually carrying someone!!!
A woman, even without a clear view of her face, it was evident that she was of 'super-first-rank' caliber, with a perfect figure and appearance.
But the question was:
Didn't he go to relieve himself? Why was he carrying a woman back?!
"..."
"Don't you think she looks familiar?" Xu Fenglai, a former playboy, was a master of women, able to identify them by scent, which was quite impressive.
At this moment, he immediately recognized the woman and confirmed her identity.
But it was better not to be sure; once he was certain, Xu Fenglai was stunned.
"She does look familiar!"
They stopped and examined her closely.
At that moment, Shi Hao, carrying the beauty on his shoulder, caught up and asked curiously, "Seniors, why have you all stopped?"
Everyone: "..."
You're asking us?!
And at such close range, everyone recognized the woman Shi Hao was carrying.
The Sorceress of the Heaven-Splitting Sect!
"You..."
"How did you bring her back?"
Xiao Ling Er was dumbfounded, completely bewildered.
What was going on?
"Her?"
"Cough, it's like this." Shi Hao's eyes darted around, "Well... I had a stomachache and diarrhea, and she was peeping on me!"
"Absolutely outrageous, I'm still a virgin!"
"So, I knocked her out."
"Then I thought, if I can tie one, I can tie two, so I tied her up and thought I might as well bring her back to the Stone Village to bear me some chubby babies."
Everyone: "..."
"6!"
For a moment, everyone was speechless.
They truly didn't know what to say, and only the word "6" could express their current feelings.
After all, this kid was really 'six'!
Without a sound, he had defeated and knocked out the Sorceress, and in such a short time. Clearly, Shi Hao had made significant progress after the Heavenly Talent Festival!
But compared to his strength, his actions were even more 'six'.
What a joke, tying two is the same as tying one, and he did it so casually.
Is this a casual thing?
Xiao Ling Er supported her forehead, feeling powerless, "I take back what I said earlier."
Shi Hao, who has experienced a lot since childhood, is measured in his actions?
He has no bloody measure!
Indeed, a brat cannot be relied upon.
YaYa nodded, speechless.
She was completely silenced!
But upon reflection, the future Wasteland Sky Emperor was indeed a brat in his youth, a terror to 'enemies' and even passersby.
Thinking about it, it wasn't surprising that he could pull off such a stunt.
But...
It was still so speechless!
Just a slight move from the brat, and both the Flame Emperor and the Ruthless Empress were silenced.
"Alright, since you've tied her up..."
Xiao Ling Er's words were hesitant.
What does it mean to tie her up?
This isn't a sightseeing trip where you can say, "Since we're here."
But to be honest, she was already tied up, and they couldn't just leave her behind. If they did, it would be even harder for the Moon Holding Sect to explain if something went wrong.
Alright, as Shi Hao said, tying one is the same as tying two. They would take her back to the sect and deal with it later.
It's like inviting the Sorceress for a visit.
Xiao Ling Er waved her hand.
The group instantly accelerated, hurrying home...
...
The battlefield became even more intense and heated.
But Lin Fan did not act; he was waiting for the right moment.
Even if he went all out now, he couldn't change the overall situation.
He could only wait!
Wait for an opportunity!
"Failure to endure small things leads to the ruin of great plans."
"But..."
Lin Fan, hidden in the shadows, observed YaYa's numerous fairy-like avatars.
At this moment, their auras were much stronger than before, and the Great Dao Vessels in their hands were trembling. The large black aura had been reduced to a fraction of its original size!
"As a Holy Land, and the stronghold of a Holy Land."
Lin Fan muttered to himself, "The reserves of Great Vehicle Buddhism should not be limited to this."
"Perhaps..."
Boom!
At that moment, a group of cultivators arrived in a bustling crowd!
Their auras were fully unleashed, with various special effects, giving the impression of a 'disorganized mob.'
But they were all Eighth Stage or higher powerhouses!
Even Ninth Stage cultivators numbered in the dozens.
"All first-rank and super-first-rank forces of the Southwest Domain, following the order of the MyriadFlowers Holy Land, have come to punish the rebels!"
Someone shouted loudly.
The moment they arrived, they joined the battle.
However, the Eighth Stage practitioners were not strong enough to fight alone, so they formed an array led by Ninth Stage experts, combining their strength to engage in the fight.
Lin Fan recognized many familiar faces.
Among them were Ling Jianzong's Sect Master Rao Zhi Rou, Taihe Palace's Qian Yinyang, Beast Taming Sect's Qu Shifei, Five Elements School's Zhou Kai, and Yuzhuo's Zhang Dao Yi...
Even the Chaos Heaven Pig had joined the battle!
However, the Eighth and Ninth Stage Elders from the Moon Holding Sect, who had been holding back, didn't show up.
Apparently, after Lin Fan agreed to stay and fight, the Myriad Flowers Holy Mother didn't ask the Moon Holding Sect to send more people.
This made Lin Fan breathe a sigh of relief.
"I should take extra care, after all, there are so many old acquaintances here, and they might become my Moon Holding Sect members in the future. I can't let anything happen to them," Lin Fan thought, focusing intently on the battle.
With the addition of various sects and powers from the Southwest Domain, they formed a formidable force. In a short time, they helped the nine major Holy Lands, which were initially at a disadvantage, regain their footing and launch a counterattack.
However...
The remaining eight Holy Lands were not pleased.
The eight Supreme Sovereigns and the Holy Mother communicated with Gu Xinglian through telepathy, arguing.
"Gu Holy Mother, you've gone too far," they said.
"Regardless of whether it's too much or not, why didn't you inform us before acting on your own?"
"Hmph, even if we don't interfere, if they want a share of the benefits, they should take it from your Myriad Flowers Holy Land's portion," Gu Xinglian retorted without changing her expression.
"Then there's no need for you to worry, esteemed elders," Gu Xinglian said. "This battle is constantly changing, and it's no longer completely under our control."
"Instead of prolonging it, we should swiftly resolve everything and prevent further complications," she added.
"You're concerned about your image and immediate gains, but I can't be so narrow-minded," Gu Xinglian said.
"Since you won't call for help, I will."
"As long as we can resolve this apocalyptic crisis as quickly as possible, everything will be worth it!"
"You!"
The crowd frowned.
However, deep down, they all seemed to be deep in thought.
They began to calculate their own plans.
But...
Ultimately, this battle was for the entire Immortal Martial Continent and for themselves.
If they failed in the end...
"!"
"Good! If we're calling for help, let's call everyone!"
"Hmph, if we don't call for help, it will make us look petty and unwilling to share the benefits with other powers," Gu Xinglian said.
"Call everyone!"
"We must act swiftly and annihilate the Buddhist Sect, Cloud Peak Palace, and the Sitting Forgetfulness Path, resolving this apocalyptic crisis before discussing anything else!"
"..."
They had no choice.
Gu Xinglian had already made the decision, and even though Li Canghai, Duanmu, and the others weren't entirely willing, they had to temporarily set aside their dissatisfaction and 'call for reinforcements'!
"Not only do we need to call for help..."
Duanmu added, "We should also send reinforcements from our own Holy Lands."
"Since we're doing this, let's do it to the best of our abilities."
"If we want speed, we can be as fast as possible."
"We must resolve everything swiftly and decisively, and we can't give the Buddhist Sect any chance to turn the tables."
"Good!"
They quickly reached a consensus and immediately 'called for reinforcements'.
In their respective 'regions', they also had unique control, and with a single command, the powerful experts from various sects set off, and reinforcements from the Holy Lands were already on their way.
However, this all required time.
"Meat Grinder."
"A true meat grinder, and they're all Eighth and Ninth Stage..."
Lin Fan's heart sank slightly. "Is this the scene that the Black Lotus has been dreaming of?"
He felt anxious.
The Black Lotus wanted to absorb these blood and flesh, as well as the essence of their souls.
In this battle, the number of Eighth and Ninth Stage experts who died and were increasing, and to the Black Lotus, this was the best supplement.
YaYa could absorb them, but at that moment, she was busy absorbing the 'black energy', and the Apocalyptic Black Lotus was resisting. As the black energy gradually diminished, it suddenly released a large amount, continuing to hide itself.
Therefore, YaYa couldn't spare any time.
"Then..."
"There's no other way."
Lin Fan sighed, and beside him, golden lotuses bloomed in mid-air, and from within them, illusionary figures emerged.
"Earth Penetrating Technique!"
These illusionary figures of Lin Fan simultaneously used the Earth Penetrating Technique, quietly sinking into the depths of the earth and swiftly moving through it.
"I didn't want to resort to this, but... since things have come to this point, there's no need for hesitation."
The numerous illusionary figures of Lin Fan hid in various places beneath the battlefield and began to connect.
Soon, above their heads, Great Dao Vessels appeared.
At the same time, a sea of blood gathered...
"If YaYa can't swallow it all, then I'll add another me."
"Anyway..."
"I can't let you, Apocalyptic Black Lotus, swallow me."
If it's about absorbing 'essence power', let's see who can absorb faster! Lin Fan could sense that, even deeper than where he was, there was another force of absorption constantly devouring blood, flesh, and essence power.
But from now on...
He would intercept it!
"Moreover, there are more than one or two demonic cultivators making a fortune from this war."
Lin Fan also discovered that other 'demon cultivators' were frantically 'blood sucking'.
However, their strength wasn't too strong, so they didn't get much.
"Wait, that's not right."
"It's impossible that no one noticed them."
"The Apocalyptic Black Lotus must have discovered them a long time ago, but why hasn't it taken action or exposed them?"
With this thought, Lin Fan began to ponder.
Instantly, he understood.
"It's clear now that everyone knows the Apocalyptic Black Lotus is deliberately causing slaughter, although we don't know its specific methods, what it wants must be related to slaughter and essence power."
"So..."
"For the people of the Nine Great Holy Lands, it's actually beneficial for them to be consumed by these Demon Cultivators."
"Although Demon Cultivators are considered demons, they are still Cultivators and 'people' of the Immortal Martial Continent. At least they won't go insane and think about destroying the entire continent, nor do they have the strength to do so."
"Therefore, it's perfectly fine for them to be consumed, and we even hope they devour more."
"As for the Apocalyptic Black Lotus..."
"In its eyes, these guys are probably all dead men. No matter how many it devours now, they are stored within their bodies, and when it needs them, it can directly kill and extract their power."
"So, in the eyes of these Demon Cultivators, they are like 'Human Purification Storage Vessels'?"
"..."
"Speaking of which, I'm probably no different in its eyes at this moment."
Lin Fan suddenly realized, and his face gradually turned cold. "Since it's like this..."
"Then let's give it a try."
"Will this holiday become your nourishment and storage vessel!"
Lin Fan's numerous Immortal Flowers simultaneously exerted their holy power and simultaneously displayed the Great Dao Vessel and Blood Sea Indestructible Body!
The blood sea gathered, merging into one, frantically absorbing the powerful Cultivators' essence blood, growing at an astonishing rate.
The Great Dao Vessel devoured the power of origin, continuously infusing each Immortal Flower incarnation, and then merging into one, constantly supplying Lin Fan's main body...
"Comfortable."
Lin Fan's main body felt so comfortable that he narrowed his eyes, "This speed of improvement is indeed... terrifyingly fast. No wonder so many people can't turn back once they're tainted by 'Demonic Arts'."
"This feeling is addictive."
"After cultivating Demonic Arts, going back to practicing orthodox techniques feels like a huge drop in quality."
It's like those 'gamblers'...
After experiencing the thrill of winning thousands or even tens of thousands in a single bet, then asking them to work in a factory and tighten screws for a month, earning a few thousand with great difficulty?
It's a wonder they can even persist!
That's why gamblers... are mostly beyond saving.
"But..."
"I... hope I can stay true to myself."
Lin Fan secretly smiled bitterly.
He couldn't be sure if he could withstand the temptation either.
......
Reinforcements, reinforcements, more reinforcements!
Time passed.
The battle intensified, but with the reinforcements from the Nine Great Holy Lands and the involvement of numerous top-tier and super-first-rank forces, the Buddhist Sect, Cloud Peak Palace, and the Forgetzen Path were ultimately overwhelmed.
They began to retreat step by step.
They were almost forced into the last area covered in black aura, the Bodhimanda Forest.
"..."
"I wonder how our master is doing."
Empty Wisdom, the master of the Forgetzen Path, the master of Cloud Peak Palace, and the master of Hinayana Buddhism gathered together, standing at the forefront, holding off the enemy.
According to the Black Lotus's instructions, they had been slaughtering relentlessly.
Killing enemies and 'using the enemy's hands to kill their own people'.
Blood didn't flow like a river, but those present were all top-notch Eighth and Ninth Stage Cultivators. Their essence blood and power of origin, each one could rival ten thousand ordinary people!
So much power of origin...
Could their master absorb it all?
They truly didn't know.
But...
As long as their master hadn't spoken up, they had to keep killing!
"We can't hold them back!"
The master of Hinayana Buddhism's face turned grim.
His current condition was terrible, his lower body had been blasted apart several times, and he was barely holding on with his strong will and powerful cultivation.
If this battle continued, he would undoubtedly be killed by Li Canghai!
"Empty Wisdom, are you still holding back the last of Great Vehicle Buddhism's reserves?"
"If we all die, relying on them alone is like a lone tree in a storm!"
"..."
Empty Wisdom and Duanmu exchanged a palm strike, coughing up blood and their faces turning ashen.
"It's useless now, we can't hide anymore."
"But in the end, it's all that traitorous Bodhisattva, Gatlin, who ate from both sides. If not for him, would we be in such a passive position?"
Seven top-notch cultivators! And the master of Hinayana Buddhism's Imperial Divine Armament, the Demon Subduing Staff, and other treasures of the Little Western Heaven.
If not for Gatlin's meddling, would they be so passive now?
At the very least, they wouldn't have been forced into a dead end so quickly, having to use their last trump card.
"Talking about this is useless now."
The master of Hinayana Buddhism screamed, "Hurry!"
"..."
Empty Wisdom suddenly turned around and bowed towards the black aura.
He knocked his head repeatedly, "Please, Self-Sacrificing Buddhas, strengthen me and protect our master!"
Boom!
Several powerful auras soared into the sky, quickly spreading out from the black aura.
Gu Xinglian, Duanmu, and the others' faces slightly changed, all feeling a sense of danger.
Thankfully, they had listened to Lin Fan's suggestion and didn't recklessly charge in; otherwise...
"Great Vehicle Buddhism still has a backup?"
......
"Self-Sacrificing Buddha... what is that?"
Lin Fan's main body also felt his heartbeat quicken, "Such a powerful aura."
"And..."
"Any one of them is above Hong Wu!"
"Self-Sacrificing Buddha... Loose Immortal?!"
Lin Fan stared, suddenly realizing, "So that's it!"
