Legend of the Great Saint Chapter 1494 - Flames of White Bone

Chapter 1494 - Flames of White Bone

Within the deep and dark cavern, only a single beam of light poured in. Li Qingshan lay within the shattered rock with his limbs sprawled out. He saw stars.

Every inch of his body moaned; every single nerve cried out. Even his soul was heavily injured, unable to even move a finger. It just trembled away extremely quickly. Even his face was rather blurred. He silently digested the power behind that punch.

“Taowu’s” strength was far too great. He could basically crush everything.

He had almost been disabled by that punch. If Tu Wancheng had not been as confident and followed up with a few more punches, he really would have been beaten to death.

Even to him, there was no such thing as safety in such a large-scale battle, let alone confidence in absolute victory.

But fortunately, he had grown accustomed to this a long time ago. He wandered on the verge of death time and time again, chasing after hope in despair.

The fighting spirit in his eyes became even heavier. So what if he had been launched away by a punch? He only needed to climb up and keep going. The soldiers were still fighting a b.l.o.o.d.y battle up ahead. He had never suspected whether they could carry his order out to the very end.

He endured the urge to stand up immediately and rush out. He needed to wait for his wounds to recover, so he sought help in the meantime. “Xiao An, if you still don’t come, I’m going to be beaten to death soon.”

A Skull Prayer Bead rolled out from his clothes, turning into a tiny Skeleton Demon. It let out a strange cackle as its teeth clashed, spitting out a stream of Samādhi Flames of White Bone that formed two words in the air. “I’m here.’

Li Qingshan smiled. Now that was his true trump card. He had not joined this battle to die.

The small world circulated even faster. Earth, fire, wind, and water cycled endlessly, rapidly healing him from body to soul.

At the same time, dim, blue light flickered in his eyes, forming a delicate hexagon like two tiny pieces of the Spirit Turtle’s Profound Sh.e.l.l. He used the Profound Light Illuminates All to observe the situation.

The performance of the direct disciples was even worse than he had expected. Not a single one of them was bold enough to perish with the enemy. Otherwise, with so many Human Sovereigns and Daemon Sovereigns working together, they could definitely threaten “Taowu”. Perhaps the sudden attack by the Scorching Fire Army G.o.d would have succeeded.

Yet in the end, they had such a large group of people that could not even unleash half of their strength, just waiting to be slaughtered by “Taowu”. They were basically even worse than regular soldiers. This was not due to a difference in strategy or strength. It was completely because they lacked the willpower.

“Heh, sure enough, the more important you are, the more you cherish your life!”

But at a time like this, it was useless even if they cherished their lives. Once “Taowu” was freed up, probably none of them could get away in one piece.

The path of cultivation had never just been about clashes of power, but struggles of willpower as well, while war had always been the greatest struggle of willpower. Only death awaited the weak.

“Hmm? Senior sister Ruan!”

Ruan Yaozhu’s performance had surprised him as well. There was an element of being mentally triggered, but the great willpower she had demonstrated and the determination to die in battle made her surpa.s.s the other direct disciples. It was not just due to the power of the seeds either. If it had been a different direct disciple, where would they find the courage to venture so deeply into the Demon domain at a time like this?

“Oh no, she’s probably caught its attention.”

Li Qingshan became serious. How could he simply watch her be killed? He stood up slowly and raised both arms.

When “Taowu” slammed down with his hand, he suddenly spread his arms and unleashed the Force Field of the Earth at the critical moment, pulling her out from h.e.l.l.

Ruan Yaozhu’s response was extremely fast as well. She used the force to fly, directly entering the mountain and diving head-first into his arms. She beamed with joy. “You’re still alive!”

Li Qingshan smiled. “You thought I died, senior sister?”

Ruan Yaozhu broke free from his embrace and urged him. “You should go quickly!”

Li Qingshan smiled. “Where do you want me to go, senior sister?”

“Leave here!” Ruan Yaozhu said firmly, “This is still within the range of “Taowu’s” attacks.”

“Then what about you?”

“I’m a direct disciple of the Myriad sect. My senior sisters and brothers are still fighting, so how can I run away?”

Li Qingshan shuddered inside. He was very touched. “But if I go, who’s going to protect you?”

Ruan Yaozhu blinked her eyes and gazed at him in a strange way before suddenly kissing him on the cheek gently.

The nine-coloured deer rushed over and just happened to see this. She cried out inside, This b.a.s.t.a.r.d!

Li Qingshan was taken aback. He touched his cheek. “Senior sister, you…”

Ruan Yaozhu was rather red, but she said very calmly, “Qingshan, you’ve already upheld your duty. You haven’t let down my trust.”

The nine-coloured deer called out, “Li Qingshan, capture her! I’ll just let the two of you be together at most!”

Li Qingshan was always ready to accept good advice at a time like this. He pulled Ruan Yaozhu into his arms and kissed her on her soft lips. Only quite a while later did he let go. “Hah, now that’s how you do it to satisfaction!”

“You’re shameless! How dare you!?”

Ruan Yaozhu turned bright red. She was absolutely furious. She made up her mind that if they wanted to keep her here, she would threaten them with her own life. Thinking up to there, she began to weep silently. No matter what happened, she was going to die.

“Don’t cry, senior sister!” Li Qingshan wiped away her tears for her and said proudly, “We still haven’t lost this battle!”

A b.l.o.o.d.y path paved from sacrifices spanned from the battlefield right beneath to Black Cloud city, leading into the Demon domain in the distance.

The Upraised Light abbot currently stood on the path with all the disciples of the Pure Land sect. The battle cries from the battlefield were deafening like it was right beside them, and it was impossible to ignore “Taowu’s” colossal figure too.

He glanced over in worry before sitting down on the spot and placing down his wooden fish. The disciples all sat around him, beginning to chant.

Rings of golden light unfurled as they began to purify this land.

Their mission was to intercept this path of sacrifice, and the battlefield would no longer belong to the Demon domain. The Demon Sovereigns would lose their geographic advantage, and the situation would change drastically or even be reversed.

However, this was nowhere near that simple. The war had already gone on for far, far too long. Both sides were more than familiar with the tactics that they could use. How could the demonfolk not prepare a countermeasure for such an obvious opening?

Before the purifying light could s.h.i.+ne for very long, a demonfolk army completely composed of cavalry arrived boldly. There were ten thousand of them, all riding vicious demonic beasts, charging towards the Upraised Light abbot under a Demon King’s lead.

The Demon King swung his halberd, and the monster condensed from army qi lunged over. “Die, bald a.s.s!”

From above, the group of several hundred monks basically seemed like a futile effort to stop ten thousand demonfolk cavalry.

The Upraised Light abbot became solemn and struck the wooden fish violently. He paused after each strike, stressing each word, “Na- Mo- A- Mi- Tā- Bha!”

A great buddha of golden light rose up behind him, s.h.i.+ning with a halo.

With each word he uttered and each striking of the wooden fish, the monster of army qi sustained heavy damage. After the six words, it immediately collapsed.

The frenzied demonfolk became confused as pain and regret filled them. They clutched their heads and cast aside their weapons. The demonic beasts directly collapsed on the ground and began whimpering. The Demon King swayed around as well, like he was drunk.

The great buddha gently picked up the Demon King like plucking a flower, crus.h.i.+ng him to pieces.

The monks cheered. Even when they were in the Demon domain, the Upraised Light abbot did not fear these armies that were not led by Demon Sovereigns. Demon Emperors could still pose some threat, but Demon Kings were basically just coming here to die. However, he became even sterner than before.

A second demonfolk army followed close behind, also led by a Demon King with only ten thousand demonfolk. They ushered the previous demonfolk forward, killing them immediately if they refused to move.

The demonfolk rushed over chaotically. In order to protect the abbot, the warrior monks were forced to kill, and the demonic land that had just been purified slightly was corrupted again.

The great buddha killed the second Demon King, and the demonfolk army began to halt and waver again when the third army arrived, swallowing the monks led by the Upraised Light abbot.

They posed no threat, but with just three measly Demon Kings and thirty thousand demonfolk, they had completely disrupted the Upraised Light abbot’s plan, keeping a monk who had attained two fruits of buddhism busy.

At this moment, he also saw how the Xuanwu Army G.o.d and Scorching Fire Army G.o.d had been defeated one after another by “Taowu” in the distance. Meanwhile, they were still stuck in the demonfolk army, unable to break free no matter what they did.

“Abbot, what do we do?”

The Upraised Light abbot sighed. Watching as the demonfolk surged over, all sinking into the wicked path with their stubbornness, he felt anger rise up within him. He spat out the six-worded mantra, “Oṃ maṇi padme hūṃ!”

A wrathful expresion flashed across the buddha’s face, and it transformed angrily. The golden clothes receded, rippling with muscle as its skin darkened. Like a fiend, its expression became terrifying and vicious, even more than the demonfolk. Wielding a golden sword with the flames of karma burning behind it, it unleashed its great fury, transforming into a wisdom king.

With a leap, it entered the demonfolk army, kicking off a ma.s.sacre!

It annihilated all demons, killing them until blood flowed and corpses covered the ground, but it still did not stop.

With the wisdom king paving a path, the Upraised Light abbot stood up and approached the battlefield. “Follow me to rebirth in paradise!”

The monks brought their palms together and said, “Rebirth in paradise, returning to the pure land forever.”

The Upraised Light abbot’s ear twitched. He heard the strange sound of a bell, piercing the noisy battlefield like a silver thread.

Wisps of pale-white flames spread over from the direction of the Demon domain. As soon as it made contact with the demonfolk corpses, it was like fire encountering oil, burning away even more vigorously. Even the “sacrifices” buried in the ground and the demonic blood that seeped into the ground were set alight. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a great fire, burning towards the demonfolk.

They were incinerated in the flames. There was no pain on their faces, and they instead smiled away in joy and peace. It was an extremely eerie sight, like the ones going to paradise were not the monks but them.

In the raging flames, the Upraised Light abbot widened his eyes in disbelief. “The Samādhi Flames of White Bone!” Perhaps because he had been illuminated by the fire, he was pale in the face.

“The White Bone Bodhisattva?”
