1811 Wu Tian Battles Shi Ying, Chu Kuangren Arrives
In Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring, outside the Eight Hundred Ancient States Formation, Shi Jiuqiao and Lan Yu were still battling.
Her Holy Radiant intent collided continuously against Shi Jiuqiao’s vast Immortal’s Core energy.
The powerful energy shockwaves from their battle caused the surroundings to rumble.
The void was shattered in parts.
Terrifying huge spatial rifts spread everywhere, eventually covering the sky.
“What’s wrong with you, Lan Yu?! Have you gone mad?! Aren’t you sick of hunting me down at first sight for so many years?! So what if I snatched away your stupid mirror? Go get yourself another one!”
Shi Jiuqiao’s expression was grim.
Sure enough, although the Kunlun Mirror was a great treasure, it had brought him quite some trouble too.
All these years, Lan Yu would always chase and hunt him down mercilessly whenever she encountered him. It seemed like she was not giving up until she took back that mirror.
Lan Yu remained silent and continued swinging her Heavenly Scepter.
Domineering surges of energy swept out, impacting the void, and formed a mighty river of light. Then, the attack was unleashed on Shi Jiuqiao!
The power of that attack was at the level of a Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal.
Shi Jiuqiao’s expression changed, and he raised his hand in response. Endless spiritual qi from the surroundings started gathering toward the nine spiritual vortexes all over his body.
“Divine Heaven Suppression Spirit Art!”
Shi Jiuqiao roared and unleashed a punch.
When the fist strength collided with the river of light, Shi Jiuqiao was sent flying as a lot of his Immortal’s Core energy had been used up.
However, the nine spiritual qi vortexes all over his body activated after that. Endless spiritual qi once again gathered into his body, rapidly recovering his strength.
“The Heavenly Spirit Restricted Area’s Immortal Nine-Orificed Stone is truly as extraordinary as they say. Born with nine orifices, the speed at which it absorbes spiritual qi is nine times faster than any ordinary cultivator.”
The Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist could not help but exclaim upon seeing that.
“Hmph.”
Lan Yu snorted and continued attacking. She then appeared before him and swung her Heavenly Scepter.
Shi Jiuqiao stood where he was and took the full blow of her attack with his body!
Following a loud boom, both cultivators were forced back.
Shi Jiuqiao was an Immortal Nine-Orificed Stone that gained sentience through the Dao. Besides being born with nine orifices, which enabled him to absorb spiritual qi nine times faster than others, he also possessed incredibly strong physical body.
“Lan Yu, aren’t you interested in the Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring? Why don’t we both stop for now and focus on getting the treasure inside? What do you say?”
Shi Jiuqiao tried to make a suggestion.
He, too, was very interested in the Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring.
However, Lan Yu ignored his suggestion and persisted with her barrage of attacks.
“Do you think we should step in and interfere, Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist?”
The Great Arbiter Divine Maiden looked at the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist beside her and asked.
He did not answer. Instead, a pondering look appeared on his face.
Meanwhile, Shi Jiuqiao’s gaze swept through the crowd, and he suddenly saw someone familiar. It was a young man dressed in long black robes with an aura of disaster looming around him.
“That’s Wu Tian!”
Shi Jiuqiao’s eyes lit up.
Wu Tian was a Buddha Destroyer left behind by the Demon Buddha Papiyas. He was also the inner disciple of the Sin Buddha, an Embodier who recently became well-known in the Immortal World.
Shi Jiuqiao used to go on adventures together with Wu Tian. Hence, both of them could be considered friends.
“Wu Tian, come deal with this crazy b*tch for me!” Shi Jiuqiao yelled, hoping that Wu Tian would answer his call for help.
However, Wu Tian frowned a little and did not take action right away.
Now that the Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring was open, he was more inclined to get the treasures it could offer. As for Lan Yu, he knew that she was only after the Kunlun Mirror, a matter that he had nothing to do with.
Despite having gotten acquainted with Shi Jiuqiao, he did not really care either.
“Wu Tian, as long as you help me defeat this crazy b*tch, I’ll help you obtain the treasures in the Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring later!” Shi Jiuqiao said loudly.
Wu Tian was a little tempted by that offer.
Then, Shi Jiuqiao said, “I also have a Sarira in my possession. It’s yours if you help me right now!”
Although Wu Tian was a Buddha Destroyer, his cultivation techniques were still deeply related to Buddhist cultivation techniques.
Hence, a Buddhist Sarira would still be very useful to him.
“If that’s the case, I’ll lend you a hand?” Wu Tian said calmly.
After that, he stepped forward, and an ominous aura erupted from his body.
With a slash from his sword, a conjuration of many Buddhas dying was reflected within his dark sword ray. The sight of it was simply frightening.
“Leave him to me, Lan Yu.”
At that time, an indifferent voice appeared.
Several lotuses bloomed in the void, purifying the black sword ray, and dispelling Wu Tian’s attack.
The person who appeared was wearing white robes and holding a suet white jade vase. She also had a very soothing temperament and stunning appearance.
“It’s you, Guanyin’s successor, Shi Ying!”
Wu Tian frowned a little when he saw who it was.
Shi Yin was one of the leading cultivators among the younger generation of Buddhist cultivators. She, too, was one of the seventy-two Immortal Prides.
At the same time, she was the most troublesome person Wu Tian could ever encounter among the Buddhist cultivators.
“A Buddha Destroyer like you can no longer remain in this world,” Shi Ying said. Her gaze was cold as ice, void of any emotion.
“In that case, let’s see if you have what it takes to do that.”
Wu Tian snorted while unleashing several slashes with his black sword.
His sword ray lit up as if announcing the arrival of the Demonic Buddha, and his ominous demonic qi intertwined with Buddhist Light. It was so bright that even the light from the stars and moons paled in comparison.
Despite facing the evil Buddha Destruction power, Shi Ying stood her ground, and golden lotuses started to bloom around her.
“Three Thousand Dewdrops!”
Many dewdrops dripped from the golden lotuses and gathered to form a tremendous rain that headed toward the incoming sword ray.
The sword qi and dewdrops collided non-stop.
As a result, the void shook for a long time.
“Phantasmal Bubbles!”
Shi Ying unleashed another technique following that.
The dewdrops gathered and formed countless bubbles that surrounded Wu Tian.
“Hmph, your techniques are still the same as before!”
Then, he grunted, “Pandemonium Papiyas, Demon Buddha Massacre!!”
He raised his long sword in the air, unleashing a terrifying demonic qi that was filled with Buddhist Destruction power and calamity.
The sword ray destroyed one bubble after another!
Their battle continued.
Meanwhile, the other cultivators started challenging the Eight Hundred Ancient States Formation. All of them wanted a chance at the Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring’s treasures.
However, the Eight Hundred Ancient States Formation was riddled with powerful obstacles. Each subsequent barrier was stronger than the previous one, and many of the cultivators could not even get past half of them.
“Shi Jiuqiao is one of the Godly Weapons’ wielders. We must not allow Lan Yu to snatch the Kunlun Mirror back from him.”
The Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist looked at Shi Jiuqiao and said.
After some thought, he decided to ignore the Nirvana Rejuvenation Spring and focus on protecting the Godly Weapon instead. After all, that was one of the weapons he needed to defeat Chu Kuangren.
However, just when he was about to attack, an incredibly chilling aura suddenly erupted from somewhere far away. A figure in white robes could be seen approaching amidst endless Immortal Sparks.
Everywhere the figure went, the void shattered while mountains and rivers crumbled!
It was as if a peerless Immortal King had descended upon the world!
At the sight of that person, the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist who almost attacked gasped. He then retracted his Immortal’s Core energy and concealed it until no trace was left.
“He’s here!”
The Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist’s expression turned grim.
The person who arrived was none other than Chu Kuangren.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren’s arrival also meant that Shi Jiuqiao could no longer hold on to the Kunlun Mirror for long!
Shi Jiuqiao alone was no match for Chu Kuangren at all!
“Are we not attacking, Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist? If Chu Kuangren manages to retrieve the Kunlun Mirror, it’ll mean that we can’t create the Universal Godly Weapons’ Ten Directions Formation!” the Great Arbiter Divine Maiden asked.
“I’m no match for Chu Kuangren. If I lose even my Eastern Sovereign Bell, that great formation will be even harder to set up.”
“If… very well.”
While the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist was not paying attention, the Great Arbiter Divine Maiden’s jade scroll flickered.
She glanced at Chu Kuangren and soon understood his orders.
