"Without further ado."
The leader of the ancient immortal was still expressionless: "Everyone of you Da Liang monks practice the 'power of pain', and you even associate with Buddhists, which makes Master Wuwei very unhappy."
"This giant squid will spread pollution to the east, which is exactly what Master Wuwei means."
"When the time comes, all of you will be polluted, and you will naturally serve Lord Wuwei wholeheartedly, and there will be no more heretics."
Li Zhuo calmly moved closer to the leader of the ancient immortal.
His tone was also surprisingly calm: "In other words, there is no room for negotiation between us?"
The ancient immortal was silent.
Shao Qing, only a few words came out of his mouth: "You can only surrender!"
"Okay, I surrender!" Since there was no room for negotiation, Li Zhuo seized the opportunity and decisively launched a sneak attack on the leader of the ancient immortal.
The moment the other party said the word 'surrender', a ball of light gathered in Li Zhuo's hand.
The surface of this light ball exudes extremely rich 'power of pain'.
Not to mention the ancient immortal who was the leader of the team who was face to face with Li Zhuo, even Cheng Huo and others standing on the tower and watching could clearly feel the extremely dangerous and terrifying aura from the light ball.
As soon as the ball of light took shape, Li Zhuo immediately pushed it towards the chest of the leader, the ancient immortal.
When the latter received this blow, he immediately flew dozens of meters away from the air and fell to the ground.
"Well done!"
"pretty!"
Seeing that Li Zhuo's attack was effective, the mid- to late-stage blood elixir monks who were watching on the sidelines, as well as the god-worshipping and embryo-building stage monks who were watching from a distance, all looked happy.
In contrast, the cultivators in the deep submergence stage such as Cheng Huo and others looked at the leader of the ancient immortal who fell on the ground, frowning.
Thunder among them even said: "The ancient immortal was hit by a ball of light, but nothing happened? I don't seem to see any injuries on him!"
"It's more than just not hurt."
Yun Rusong on the side also looked solemn.
He added: "I can clearly feel that after the blow from Brother Li, the aura of the ancient immortal has not even weakened."
"With that ancient immortal's strength, he can obviously avoid Brother Li's attack."
"But he just won't hide."
"He seems to have never taken Brother Li seriously from the beginning to the end!"
It can withstand a blow from a monk in the deep dive stage without being injured, and even ignores the attack of a monk in the deep dive stage at all.
Is this the true strength of the ancient immortal?
Upstairs in the west city of Xia Shan City.
After hearing what Yun Rusong said, all the monks had expressions of helplessness, shock, or fear on their faces for a moment.
Lei Lei couldn't help but asked: "What are the origins of those ancient immortals? Have they really lived for tens of thousands of years and not died?"
"I don't know." Yun Rusong shook his head and said, "But one thing I am sure of is that no monk can live for tens of thousands of years without dying."
"Unless that monk is no longer a human being."
"Not a human?" Lei Lei looked at the ancient immortals with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
While the two were talking, they saw that the team leader Ancient Immortal, who had received a ball of light from Li Zhuo, had flown back into the air from the ground.
The ancient immortals really don't seem to have the trait of 'emotion'.
The team leader Gu Xian, who was attacked by Li Zhuo, did not show any anger, but still said expressionlessly: "Your opponent is not me, but the king squid behind me. Only if we can defeat this king squid, Only you are qualified to fight me!"
"What do you mean?" Yun Rusong was stunned when he heard this: "Does the ancient immortal want to say that his true strength is stronger than that ferocious beast squid?"
"I don't know." Li Zhuo said: "But since those ancient immortals don't plan to take action yet, there is no need for us to care about them."
"The top priority right now is to find a way to deal with that giant squid first!"
"This squid is no better than the blue whale before." Chengshuo reminded from the side: "The blue whale last time was not controlled by anyone, so after fighting with us, it turned to the far north."
"However, with the squid controlled by the ancient immortal, there is a high probability that it will not behave like that, so this will be an endless battle."
"Either that giant squid will die in our hands or the entire Daliang Kingdom will be contaminated by squid."
The sky above the west tower of Xiashan City.
Li Zhuo looked around and said to the monks around him: "Fellow Taoists, in this situation, there is no need for you to hold back. Let's all come together!"
With that said, he took out the huge skull magic weapon from his storage bag.
And Yun Rusong also took out a piece of white bone spine.
The two treasures merged into one, and soon turned into a white-bone giant more than a hundred meters tall, and attacked the giant squid.
at the same time.
Because of the lessons learned from the previous battle with the Blue Whale, Thunder did not rush forward stupidly and fight the giant squid in close combat this time.
He just threw the thunder hammer in his hand at the squid from a considerable distance away, and his style of attack was extremely conservative.
Also out of caution.
Cheng Sheng and other monks also always kept a certain distance, and controlled the magic weapons in their hands, or used various spells to attack the squid.
As for the Liang Kingdom monks who launched an attack on the squid, the ancient immortals showed no reaction.
They were just suspended in mid-air, watching from afar like outsiders.
period.
When the monks took action, no one dared to come forward and fight the squid up close.
Don't even dare to get too close.
"Woo"
Under the joint attack of all the monks, countless scars soon appeared on the squid's body.
After it wailed, it began to wave its tentacles to fight back at Chenghuo and the others.
The tentacles of the king squid have countless suckers. The moment the tentacles are waved, these suckers also open one after another.
Each suction cup is like a bloody mouth.
"Be careful!" Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Cheng Sheng jumped into the air decisively and quickly evacuated to the rear.
Thunder and other deep dive monks also followed closely behind.
Then came Ni Li and other Blood Pill stage monks.
at the same time.
The suction cups on the squid tentacles also exerted an unimaginable attraction at this moment. Some monks who had no time to escape and were closer to the suction cup were sucked in by the suction cup in the blink of an eye.
"Those tentacles actually have such terrifying suction power?" In the distance, Ni Li, who was lucky enough to escape and ascend to heaven, showed a frightened expression on his face.
'Gululu'
After those tentacles absorb the monks, they will make strange squirming sounds, as if the intestines are squirming and digesting prey.
Looking at the squirming tentacles, Ni Li felt his scalp numb: "In just a moment, twenty or thirty Blood Core Stage monks died. How are we going to fight this?"
Facing the squid that was impossible to defeat, Ni Li was timid.
He started to back away.
As soon as Ni Li retreated, the other blood-dan stage monks saw him and naturally retreated towards the rear.
In this way, there were only six deep dive monks including Cheng Huo and the great Buddhist monks who were not afraid of death.
"Amitabha!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Xuansi, the great Buddhist abbot, said slowly: "Brothers and sisters, it's time for me to take action."
Great Buddhist monks never carry storage bags.
After Abbot Xuansi finished speaking, he opened the tattered luggage he was carrying behind him.
But I saw countless Buddha statues flying out of the bag.
When Li Zhuo saw it, he was surprised and said, "Fellow Taoist Xuansi, what are you trying to do?"
"Amitabha."
Xuansi sat cross-legged on the ground with a smile, and said in a calm tone: "I, a great Buddhist monk, go to various ancient Buddha ruins and collect ancient Buddha statues from them, just for today."
After saying that, Xuansi turned to the monks and said: "As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Brothers and sisters, it's time for the true Buddha to come to the world!"
After saying that, he took out the dagger and various torture instruments used to torture people, and began to torture himself on the spot.
"Amitabha!"
After all the monks chanted the Buddha's name, they all took out the instruments of torture from their bags behind their backs.
They used their own methods to inflict all kinds of inhuman torture on themselves that was unimaginable to ordinary people and even more unbearable.
For a time, countless extremely rich 'powers of pain' were generated from the heads of the monks.
These 'powers of pain' gathered together to form a black cloud that was like substance.
As time passed, black clouds slowly rose into the sky.
Under the night sky, those black clouds were rolling and surging, and soon formed a huge black vortex in the sky.
at the same time.
The Buddha statues taken out by Xuansi also turned into a large amount of extremely rich black smoke at this moment, and rose into the sky.
"Om."
"Well."
"Woolen cloth."
"..."
After absorbing the black smoke from the Buddha statue, Chenghuo and others heard bursts of Sanskrit sounds coming from the black vortex in the air.
It is different from the Sanskrit sounds heard in Guyang City.
The sound of Buddha and Sanskrit that appeared in Xiashan City this time no longer confuses people's hearts, but instead makes all listeners feel clear and clear-minded.
Although everyone has never seen the real Buddha, at this moment they all feel that they have been touched by the real Buddha both physically and mentally.
This feeling is very strange.
, for a time everyone entered into a mysterious and special state.
Along with the bursts of Sanskrit sounds, a huge Buddha statue slowly emerged from the whirlpool.
"It's my Buddha! It's coming, it's finally coming!"
Looking at the Buddha statue in the sky, Xuan Si's eyes showed a hint of fanaticism.
He no longer tortured himself, but knelt on the ground with great piety, and sang along with the waves of obscure and mysterious Sanskrit sounds.
Outside the Xiashan City tower.
High in the sky.
The ancient immortals who witnessed the whole process of the great Buddhist monks summoning the true Buddha remained unmoved and just watched silently from a distance.
"Is that the 'Buddha'?" Looking at the 'Buddha' statue emerging from the black vortex, Li Zhuo felt an inexplicable shock in his heart.
He estimated: "The strength of this 'Buddha' is probably far higher than that of deep dive monks like us!"
"No, this is not 'Buddha'."
Xuansi stopped kneeling and explained to the monks: "The real 'Buddha' is formless and exists everywhere."
"It is not restricted by any material in the world, and it does not exist in a skin. Therefore, it is naturally impossible for you to see its true form."
"As for the Buddha in front of us, he is just a descendant derived from the indescribable creature 'Buddha'."
Xuansi continued: "Of course, even if he is just a descendant of 'Buddha', his power is far beyond what we humans can understand."
"I think it's more than enough to deal with that giant squid."
The King Squid is one of the offspring derived from the indescribable creature 'Wu Si'.
The Buddha statue that appears above Xia Shan City is also one of the descendants derived from the indescribable creature 'Buddha'.
Both 'Buddha' and 'Wuwei' feed on human emotions.
Since the required resources are the same, there will naturally be conflicts over the competition for these resources. Therefore, there has always been an incompatibility between 'Buddha' and 'Wumi'.
At that moment, as soon as the two offspring met, they immediately focused all their attention on each other.
Without the control of the ancient immortals and great Buddhist monks, the two heirs took the initiative to attack each other.
In the sky.
The Buddha statue made a palm with one hand and patted the giant squid in a seemingly slow motion.
The slow movements of the Buddha statue only seemed to Cheng Huo and others, but in fact, the movements of the Buddha statue's palms were extremely fast.
'Bang'!
This palm hit the giant squid firmly and forced it back nearly a thousand meters.
"good!"
When Li Zhuo saw it, he immediately said excitedly: "It seems that the strength of this Buddha statue is still higher than that of the King Squid!"
Xuansi shook his head and said, "The Buddha statue is indeed stronger than the King Squid, but it also has fatal flaws."
"The King Squid is the true offspring summoned by the 'Wu Si', so its power comes from the 'Wu Si' itself.
"
"So the power of the king squid is endless."
"The descendants of the Buddha are summoned by our great Buddhist monks, so the power comes from us humans and is limited."
Xuansi frowned and said: "Now, with limited power against the infinite, we must fight quickly."
"Otherwise, sooner or later we will be eaten alive by the giant squid because of the 'power of pain'!"
When manpower is limited?
Hearing this, Li Zhuo hurriedly asked: "So, how long can you sustain it now? Do you need help from the rest of us?"
"You can't help." Xuansi said: "Only we, the great Buddhist monks who uphold the precepts and persist in ascetic practice, can emit the extremely pure 'power of pain' and use it to summon the descendants of the Buddha. And The 'power of pain' produced by ordinary people's self-torture is far from meeting this standard."
"As for how long we can hold on." Xuansi said uncertainly: "It depends on how long we can hold on."
"Amitabha!"
As Xuansi spoke, he suddenly proclaimed the Buddha's name and said to the monks: "All actions are impermanent, and what is alive must come to an end. If there is no birth, there will be no death. This death is the most blissful."
"Amitabha!" After hearing this, all the monks also chanted the Buddha's name and tortured themselves more and more fiercely.
not far away.
After hearing this, Lei Lei asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Abbot Xuansi, what kind of riddle was he just doing?"
Among the monks in the deep submergence stage such as Cheng Sheng, Zhong Ran is undoubtedly the weakest.
However, although Zhong Ran did not spend much time practicing, he read the most scriptures among all the people.
At that moment, he explained from the side: "What Abbot Xuansi means is that all human beings are destined to die, but after death, people can live forever and gain great freedom."
At the end, he added: "This is a Buddhist verse in Buddhism."
