Chapter 403: The Opening of the Netherworld Gate, the Living Buddha's Transformation, and the Eighth
Chapter 403: The Opening of the Netherworld Gate, the Living Buddha's Transformation, and the Eighth Mysterious Door's Positioning (Part 2)
It was indeed your good fortune!"
Bai Bu Yi smiled coldly, clenching his fist within the white river. Suddenly, a white ruler was pulled out, and traces of Dao Essence seemed to swirl around it.
Fang Hanshu's white beard fluttered, and his sage robe's sleeves whipped the air.
His entire person seemed to rush forward like a cannonball, approaching Bai Bu Yi.
And the aura on Fang Hanshu's body continued to rise, rise—
"Rebellious? What about you?"
"You hypocritical scholars, reading the sages' books in vain! The entire Jiangnan Circuit, made filthy and miasmic by you, the people suffer in silence. Despite the Jiangnan Circuit occupying the most fertile lands of Great Jing, the people live in extreme poverty. Various taxes and exploitations... You scholars, playing the game of exploitation, are the worst in the world!"
Fang Hanshu spoke coldly, each word like an insult.
Step by step, he strode through the night sky, his white radiance becoming increasingly dazzling.
Bai Bu Yi was shocked, sensing his Vast River pillar, only to find it struggling to withstand, shaking.
"Vast River..."
"You dare to speak of Vast River?!"
Boom—!!!
Fang Hanshu's arms suddenly spread wide.
The next moment, the sky seemed to split open, like a heavenly river bursting its banks. Countless white breaths fell, gathering and surging, forming an incredibly thick river!
"This is..."
Bai Bu Yi's eyes narrowed.
"The Vast River!"
"You... you've comprehended the Vast River!"
Bai Bu Yi was instantly terrified.
His Vast River pillar collapsed, and Fang Hanshu appeared before him, his face against Bai Bu Yi's, the wind howled, his white beard lashing like a whip, striking Bai Bu Yi's face!
And with the fluttering pages of a book, accompanied by a rustling sound, flew up and hovered, blocking all of Bai Bu Yi's escape routes!
"Die!"
The Vast River behind Fang Hanshu poured down.
A Vast River comparable to the Half-step Divine Tribulation Realm's breath directly crushed Bai Bu Yi's Vast River pillar, washing away his flesh!
It was as if countless teaching rods were striking Bai Bu Yi's body.
In an instant, Bai Bu Yi was covered in blood.
In a few breaths, Bai Bu Yi's clothes turned to dust, his skin exposed and terrifying.
After a few more breaths, Bai Bu Yi's flesh was washed away by the Vast River, revealing white bones.
Finally, even the bones were shattered, exploding into bone powder, scattering in the wind.
Bai Bu Yi, the Vast Sage Academy's grandmaster and a great sect leader, was, at this moment, crushed to death by the Vast River!
And Fang Hanshu stood in the air, the Vast River behind him resembling a white divine dragon. A terrifying and oppressive aura swept through the entire night sky!
Silence!
Shock!
Another top-tier grandmaster had fallen!
Above Qianyuan Dao City, the atmosphere was fervent, cheers rising. The Divine Guard Army soldiers, whose power had been suppressed by the court's powerful army, were now filled with battle intent!
They couldn't wait to charge out of the city, eager to fight.
Because the situation had completely reversed!
Ning Cai Shen, the Seven Treasures Sect leader, Gu Cheng, the Dragon Tiger Sect leader, Zhao Chun Qiu, and others, their faces changed drastically.
How could this be?
Boom!
Gu Changqing and Bai Bu Yi were both dead!
How could this have happened? The plan was to destroy the Fashan Sect, but the situation had taken a drastic turn.
Ji Mo Li, currently engaged in battle with Lu Taibai, furrowed his brows slightly.
"Fang Hanshu... has comprehended the Vast River of Righteousness, reaching the Half-step Divine Tribulation Realm, and has entered the Divine Realm through the Sage Path!"
Ji Mo Li was taken aback, never expecting Fang Hanshu to have concealed his progress so deeply.
No one knew that Fang Hanshu had broken through to the Half-step Divine Tribulation Realm, and the power of the Vast River of Righteousness was no weaker than the Three Calamities Power. It was a different path to enlightenment among mortals!
The Three Calamities Power was a normal cultivation method for refining one's divine nature and breaking into the Divine Tribulation Realm.
However, breaking into the Divine Realm through martial arts, the Sage Path, and other cultivation methods was not limited to the Three Calamities Power!
"The situation... something's not right!"
Ji Mo Li gripped his umbrella spear horizontally and swept it out with great force. The terrifying vital energy wrapped around the power of the Nether Flame, causing the void to distort and burst with intricate cracks!
The Annihilating Wind sword energy sent by Lu Taibai was obliterated!
Ji Mo Li seemed to sense a dangerous aura.
Amidst the clanging of armor, the killing intent intensified, and the assault on Lu Taibai became more ferocious.
...
...
"Fang Hanshu... has indeed concealed his cultivation!"
"This scholar, the number one talent of Jiangnan Circuit, has indeed comprehended the Vast River of Righteousness! He has attained the realm of the Divine Tribulation!"
On the Obsidian Spirit Wood Warship.
Xie Yun Shen's feathers suddenly stiffened, and his eyes fixed on the enormous white river that rushed down from the sky, radiating a brilliant and awe-inspiring righteousness, constantly surging.
The Vast River of Righteousness Academy in Jiangnan Circuit...
It had been nearly a thousand years since anyone had comprehended the Vast River of Righteousness!
The academy dominated Jiangnan Circuit, attracting countless scholars and creating a stifling environment with their scholarly pursuits. Fortunately, it was a gathering of scholars, or else Jiangnan Circuit would have rebelled long ago.
But the ones suffering the most were the common people of Jiangnan Circuit, burdened by heavy corvee labor and taxes, making them poorer than the people of Tongyou Circuit.
"Something's not right."
Xie Yun Shen's gaze intensified.
He turned his attention to the Ink City of Hell, towering in the night sky.
Fang Hanshu's sudden outburst was within Xie Yun Shen's expectations, and he had already arranged for someone to deal with it.
That person was the Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage.
Xie Yun Shen guessed that the Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage had also reached the Half-step Divine Tribulation Realm and mastered the Three Calamities Power, but he had been concealing it all along.
Therefore, in this battle, as long as the Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage revealed his power, the situation could be turned around! However, the King of Hell from the Netherworld had single-handedly restrained the two top combat powers of the imperial army sent to suppress the rebellion!
This was beyond Xie Yun Shen's expectations.
By his side,
The sword-bearing guard, Ning An, was drenched in sweat and fear.
The Hell Horse Face from the Netherworld constantly aimed their mechanisms at them.
They didn't make a move but continued to threaten them.
Xie Yun Shen maintained his composure, but as a sword-bearing guard, Ning An, possessed the power of a Triple Flower Great Master. How could he withstand such a threat? His legs were about to give way!
But...
Why didn't Horse Face shoot?
Why the hesitation?
What was he waiting for?
...
...
The sound of heavy rain filled the air.
Ink City of Hell!
The terrifying downpour washed over the entire city, and within the vast city, the killing intent surged like a raging tide.
Boom!!!
After a dizzying display of power, Tian Can and Di Que were teleported into the city, but the two elders quickly steadied their minds.
The Half-step Divine Warrior Shadow of the two elders rose, and the massive Demon Elephant's hoof stomped down with great force!
The entire Ink City trembled violently, and the countless raindrops seemed to freeze in mid-air due to the overwhelming aura. The intense killing intent ravaged the city.
Buzz!!!
The Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage's figure also appeared.
"Amitabha."
The Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage's long eyebrows drooped, and he glanced at Tian Can and Di Que with a mix of worry and frustration.
However, the two elders, Tian Can and Di Que, scoffed coldly.
"Pretending! Bald donkey, keep pretending!"
Boom!!!
The Demon Elephant's hoof was fiercely swung out, resembling a leg sweep in martial arts, but this leg was akin to a demon god!
Wherever it passed, the void couldn't bear the strain, and even intricate cracks formed like spider webs!
"You two! What are you doing? Why are you attacking your own people?!" The Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage roared in anger.
Tian Can, the elder, sneered, "Our own people? You're the donkey!"
"If you're one of us, I'll cut off my other leg too!"
"The King of Hell's Thunder Prison, we could break it, but a new Divine Heaven Thunder was infused, forcing the prison to restrict us! Was that your doing? Do you think we're fools?"
"And Gu Changqing, he couldn't even use his Tiandan avatar and was killed. Was that your doing too?"
"So vicious and cunning, you bald donkey!"
"Little Spirit Sound Temple has joined forces with Qianyuan Divine Sect!"
Elder Tian Can cursed, "What a sinister bald donkey!"
Boom!!!
In the distance, a colossal black structure rose from the ground, shimmering with the light of countless stars. The black-clad Tian Can and Di Que stood with their arms crossed, their Half-step Divine Warrior Shadows focused on the structure.
Then, the two elders began to unleash a chaotic barrage of attacks on the surroundings.
"Attack! Destroy this city, and we'll kill them! This is like a small divine cave for them!"
The only way to escape this small divine cave was to use overwhelming power to destroy it.
Unless the Netherworld could endure the pain of the small divine cave's destruction, they would have to let them go.
A city after another, all of them black as ink, were shattered into pieces under the terrifying attacks of the Half-step Divine Warrior, turning to dust and scattering in all directions!
Yellow Eyebrow, the Great Mage, coldly observed this scene.
Then, with a clench of his five fingers, a pitch-black staff appeared in his hand, and a large black Buddha suddenly emerged from his back, its eyes wide open in anger, and countless black and golden Buddha lights intertwined like rays!
A Divine Heaven Thunder rumbled in Yellow Eyebrow's eyebrows!
Yellow Eyebrow let out a long howl!
It was as if an enormous gate had appeared, its color deep and dark, enveloped in thick death and corpse energy!
On the gate, two ancient and rustic characters were written.
"Nine Netherworld!"
The Gate of the Nine Netherworlds!
Yellow Eyebrow had long died, and the gate he opened was no longer the Heavenly Gate but the Gate of the Nine Netherworlds!
The Divine Heaven Thunder was hidden behind the Gate of the Nine Netherworlds, and it fell with a boom!
Yellow Eyebrow's aura rose steadily, and he fiercely attacked the two elders, Tian Can and Di Que!
Attacking the two Half-step Divine Warrior shadows!
"You bald donkey! You've betrayed us!"
Elder Tian Can cursed loudly!
However, he soon couldn't continue cursing.
Because Yellow Eyebrow cold shiver down their spines as he swept his eyes over them, and behind him, four Mysterious Door Divine Seeds appeared.
In the terrified gazes of the two elders, one after another, they exploded!
The black Buddha glared, and its palm fiercely struck down.
The Half-step Divine Warrior shadows trembled incessantly, as if about to completely collapse, and the two elders spewed blood, flying out horizontally!
Then, they felt a terrifying gust of wind from behind!
It was the power of a top-tier Forbidden Apex!
It was Yue Huanglong and Han Si Xi, who, in the blink of an eye, had revived and fearlessly attacked!
The two manipulated the Half-step Divine Warrior shadows to turn around, and they fiercely pulled out the Demon Elephant's leg, but this pull was not easy!
"How can it be them?!"
The two elders, Tian Can and Di Que, had their hairs standing on end, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of disbelief!
Weren't they killed? How could they be alive again?!
For the two, who had reached the Half-step Divine Warrior level, the threat was not significant.
But, the fact that they could still be alive after being killed was unbelievable!
Besides...
The two elders, Tian Can and Di Que, looked at the distance in extreme terror. There, a terrifying martial will and pressure raged, intertwining.
They saw a golden ocean of Vital Energy...
A ten-thousand-foot Vital Energy sea!
This was a Martial Sage's Vital Energy sea?!
But beneath the golden Vital Energy sea.
The King of Hell split into two!
Two Kings of Hell appeared!
One was Li Che, and the other was a Sovereign Avatar!
Inside Ink City, I am the Sovereign!
Enter Ink City, and your life is in my hands!
In Li Che's eyes, a golden smoke suddenly erupted, and his aura steadily rose, breaking free from his restraints in an instant, reaching the Half-step Divine Warrior level. His entire body's Vital Energy boiled, and he let out a long howl.
At this moment, he even found the location of the eighth Mysterious Door Divine Seed within his spine!
Inside Ink City, everyone's hearts were as one!
The aura of the citizens gathered and surged towards him!
"Damn it!"
The two elders, Tian Can and Di Que, were terrified beyond measure. What kind of mystic cave was this?!
They knew that falling into Ink City meant nothing good. Yellow Eyebrow, you son of a bitch, you don't have a single hole in your ass!
The two cursed simultaneously!
But then, they saw a white chess piece suddenly appear before their eyes, and it twisted!
The two Kings of Hell appeared in an instant, their fists clenched, and a massive Vital Energy furnace, containing roaring Vital Energy, smashed down!
As the fist struck, it instantly transformed into dazzling sword lights, the sword lights split into six, like a peacock spreading its tail, sweeping past!
Behind Yellow Eyebrow, the black Buddha's eyes widened in anger, and it struck out the Divine Heaven Thunder Buddha Palm!
The gathered attacks intertwined like a storm brewing over the vast sea, about to burst forth!
Instantly smashing into the bodies of the two elders, Tian Can and Di Que!
Boom——!!!
A terrifying explosion rumbled and spread!
The ground shook, and the city crumbled!
A huge mushroom cloud rose, and the powerful explosion seemed to bore a hole through the ground!
Black bricks and stones were annihilated, black mud churned, and it seemed to have evaporated into ink!
A vast expanse of ink-colored dust surged and billowed!
Ten zhang, a hundred zhang, a thousand zhang, and the ground boiled!
The sound of tremors continued, and the entire Ink City almost instantly became a circular wasteland!
Whoosh whoosh——!!
Two figures, broken beyond recognition, shot out from the mushroom cloud.
They landed on the ruined ground, covered in blood, and crawled.
It was the two elders, Tian Can and Di Que.
However.
They could perform the Combined Divine Martial Technique, unleashing the power of the Half-step Divine Warrior, but they were only two top-tier Forbidden Apex experts.
When the two, in despair, raised their heads.
They saw a scorching red furnace hanging in the sky above Ink City!
And in front of the furnace, the King of Hell stood with his arms crossed, towering.
It was as if a person was holding up a scorching sun.
The world fell silent, and the silence was deafening.
There was no excessive pre-death conversation.
The King of Hell threw a punch.
The furnace tilted, and endless Vital Energy, like a sea of fire, pressed down. A ten-thousand-foot Vital Energy sea, a golden pool, appeared, like a dream, and it instantly pressed down!
The two elders, Tian Can and Di Que, who were already severely injured...
Were blasted to pieces!
...
...
Above Qianyuan Dao City!
Ink City violently shook.
The tremors caught the attention of many.
Suddenly.
As the shaking of Ink City stopped, the tightly closed city gates opened with a boom!
The three top-tier powerhouses, Tian Can, Di Que, and Yellow Eyebrow, spat out blood and flew out from the Netherworld base.
Xie Yunshen stood at the bow of the battle ship.
Staring intently at Ink City, he knew that the battle within Ink City would determine the outcome of this Mountain-Breaking Sect-Crushing War.
It would determine whether their army would advance or retreat.
When they saw Tian Can, Di Que, and Yellow Eyebrow, who, despite their injuries, emerged from the Netherworld base unharmed, Xie Yunshen let out a long sigh of relief.
