Shen Shu was a member of the Asura Tribe, the Asura King?!
This was the first thought that appeared in Xu Qi'an's mind.
If Shen Shu was a member of the Asura Tribe, then the only one who matched his identity was the Asura King who was sealed by the Buddha with the Demon Sealing Nail and suppressed under Mount Alanto.
However, according to the legends, the Asura King had died a long time ago.
As for the possibility that Shen Shu was another member of the Asura Tribe, Xu Qi'an believed it was impossible. The reason was simple. After the Asura King died, the one who inherited the title of "Azuro" was the youngest son of the Asura King.
This meant that Azuro was the strongest warrior of the Asura Tribe.
Based on this, if Shen Shu was a member of the Asura Tribe, then as a half-step Martial God, he could only be the Asura King.
"Shen Shu is the Asura King, the Asura King and the Ruler of the Myriad Beasts Kingdom are lovers, the Nine-Tailed Fox is the daughter of the Asura King, and is the brother of Azuro..." Xu Qi'an mumbled in his heart.
This is interesting!
However, there were still many unexplainable questions, the most important one being the timeline.
According to Xu Qi'an's understanding, the Asura Tribe had submitted to the Buddhism at least a thousand years ago, maybe even longer, while the Xia-sweeping Tribe had only happened five hundred years ago.
In other words, the Asura King should have died a thousand years ago. Therefore, the fact that Shen Shu was the Asura King was a little strange.
Imagine, if the Asura King had submitted to the Buddhism, the Buddhists would definitely spread the news and record it in Buddhist scriptures to the believers of the world to establish the prestige of the Buddhism.
They would not spread the news that the Asura King was killed by the merciful Buddha.
"Right, the deal, Shen Shu and the Buddha had an unknown deal..."
Xu Qi'an's heart skipped a beat as he vaguely grasped something. However, time did not allow him to think further. The aura emitted by Azuro was becoming more terrifying.
The entire Nan Fa Temple was shrouded in a layer of shadow.
Standing nine feet tall, with pitch-black skin, bulging muscles, and a protruding brow ridge and an ugly appearance, the current Azuro looked like a God of War that had walked out from Hell.
Under the protruding brow ridge, the pair of sharp eyes glowed crimson.
From the eyes, Xu Qi'an could see bloodthirstiness, brutality, and battle.
The Shura Clan was born to be warriors.
"Amitabha!"
Not to mention Xu Qi'an, even the monks of Nanfa Temple were not used to Azuro's current state.
They stopped forming the formation and retreated while chanting the name of Buddha.
In a berserk state, Azuro's biggest characteristic was that he didn't recognize anyone.
Xu Qi 'an held his saber and was on high alert. At the same time, he raised his head to look at the sky. Sun Xuanji's second shot was beginning to gather momentum.
If Shen Shu was the Asura King, then did Azuro know about this? If he doesn't know, I might be able to take the opportunity to instigate him … Xu Qi 'an had an idea.
"Do you know who is sealed in the pagoda?"
"Demonic Monk!"
Azuro replied. His voice was no longer as mellow as it had been when he was young. It was filled with an indifference that overlooked everything.
"What if I told you that he is your father, the Asura King, the previous generation's Azuro?"
Xu Qi'an transmitted his voice.
"So what? Once you become a Buddhist, everything else is meaningless."
Azuro said lightly.
"It's just the murder of my father …" Seeing Asulo like this, Xu Qi 'an remembered what the beautiful woman, Bodhisattva Liu Li, had said when she arrived at the capital from the Western Region to help Xu Pingfeng capture him.
"Once you become a Buddhist, everything else is meaningless!"
He felt a chill in his heart.
If Glazed Bodhisattva had succeeded, his situation would not be any better than Azuro's.
"Clank clank …"
Azuro's fingers shot out a pitch-black claw that emitted a dark light. His figure disappeared as if he had been teleported and appeared in front of Xu Qi'an.
"So fast …" Xu Qi'an's pupils reflected Azuro's ugly face. His battle instinct overtook his thinking and he slashed with his saber.
"Puff ~ ~"
Dark golden blood splattered, and the severed arm fell along with the saber.
The power of the Killer Thief Dao Immortal combined with his Asura Body was completely unstoppable. Xu Qi'an leaped to the right and did a beautiful somersault with one arm.
In the process, he picked up the severed arm and activated Jade Fragment, returning the injury to Azuro and interrupting his attack.
A bone-deep claw mark appeared on Azuro's pitch-black right arm, but it didn't tear his arm apart.
He clenched his fist, making the muscles of his right arm bulge, and the injury instantly healed.
"Jade Fragment's ability has dropped to less than fifty percent …" Xu Qi'an's heart sank, and then he melted into the shadows.
Azuro's tall figure suddenly appeared where he had been standing, and he punched with his right fist, aiming for Xu Qi'an's head.
Xu Qi'an appeared more than a hundred feet away and slashed with his saber to the right.
Clink!
Sparks flew, and it happened to hit Asolo's chest, who had suddenly appeared.
At the same time, Xu Qi'an, who had slashed, melted into the shadows again and disappeared.
He appeared under the Sealed Tower. Clink! Sparks flew, and Xu Qi'an used Shadow Jump again and disappeared.
In the huge west courtyard, the two fought in a strange way, sometimes appearing in the east, sometimes appearing in the south, and sometimes only "clink" sounds could be heard, and sparks could be seen, but no one could be seen.
Xu Qi'an was no longer a crude Warrior who only knew how to work hard. He, who had the Seven Absolute Gu, had enough fancy skills.
He first used the spell "Shifting Stars" to conceal his aura, and then used Shadow Jump to entangle Azuro. Azuro couldn't predict where he would appear, and even if he chased with his terrifying speed, he couldn't predict the enemy's movements and was always a step behind.
But there was a drawback, and that was, he had to keep jumping. If he slowed down, such as taking the opportunity to destroy the Sealed Tower, he would be caught by Azuro.
And the Sealed Tower was enveloped by the formation formed by sixty-eight Zen masters, and even he couldn't easily destroy it.
"Boom!"
The glaring light beam descended again, illuminating the Nanfa Temple.
Sun Xuanji's second attack arrived, but the target was no longer Azuro, but the Sealed Tower.
Bang bang!
Crack!
The golden light that enveloped the Sealed Tower became thinner, and the roof tiles shattered, and the walls cracked. It had suffered great damage.
The light beam disappeared shortly after, and Sun Xuanji controlled the Buddha's Pagoda to rise into the sky, accumulating power, and preparing for the next attack.
At this moment, the mutual restriction between systems was revealed. If it was the Witchcraft Cult's Rain Master or a Dao Sect's Transcendent, Sun Xuanji definitely wouldn't dare to fly so high. Both of them had the ability to summon lightning.
But the Buddhist system's methods were unfathomable, and there were very few spells that could manipulate the power of heaven and earth.
"Two more and I will be able to destroy the Sealed Tower …"
Xu Qi'an was secretly excited.
Originally, if Senior Brother Sun personally went to break the formation, it would be a piece of cake. But Senior Brother Sun was obviously afraid of Azuro, so he didn't dare to come down.
The chase continued until the third attack was ready. The muzzle spat out a one-meter diameter light beam, and it bombarded the Sealed Tower again.
The Nanfa Temple was once again enveloped by daylight.
At this moment, Xu Qi'an noticed that Azuro had disappeared.
He didn't chase after Xu Qi'an.
At the same time, Azuro appeared on the fort. He avoided the detection formation that Sun Xuanji had set up and appeared on the fort without a sound.
With the fort's height, the Unparalleled Warrior couldn't descend without a sound. The sky was different from the land. With a foothold, the Warrior could rely on his terrifying explosive power to teleport a short distance.
Without a foothold in the sky, the Warrior's speed was slow, and his movements were loud. He couldn't hide from a Grade 3 Warlock. Not to mention the detection formation that radiated from the fort.
But there was a place that the detection formation couldn't cover, and Sun Xuanji couldn't detect it.
That was the light beam shot out from the muzzle.
Azuro went against the light beam and killed his way up the fort.
At this moment, his pitch-black skin was covered in burn marks, and smoke was rising from it, emitting the smell of burnt flesh.
At this moment, he was less than ten meters away from Sun Xuanji.
And the current Sun Xuanji was not a puppet, but his real body.
Death Realm!
Bam … Azuro punched out like a cannonball, tearing through the air.
Light lit up on the fort, and a defensive formation in the shape of a tortoise shell appeared. But in the face of Azuro's overbearing punch, it crumbled into dust.
Even Xu Qi'an's Vajra Divine Art couldn't block it, let alone a mere defensive formation.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Sun Xuanji. He opened his arms and met Azuro's fist.
Xu Qi'an!
The pitch-black fist pierced through Xu Qi'an's chest, instantly shattering his heart into minced meat.
At this time, Sun Xuanji finally responded. He slid a modified gun out of his sleeve, took a step forward, and swept out from behind Xu Qi'an, aimed at Azuro's chest, and pulled the trigger.
The formation engraved on the gun lit up, and a dark-gold nail shot out.
The moment Sun Xuanji pulled the trigger, Xu Qi'an activated Jade Crush, causing a bloody wound to appear on Azuro's chest and breaking his indestructible body.
Puff …
The Magic Sealing Nail pierced through Azuro's chest.
His sharp eyes slightly slackened, and he looked down in shock at the dark gold nail that was embedded in his heart.
His pitch-black skin receded like the tide. Azuro staggered backward, clutching his chest, and his breath dropped like a cliff.
It worked …
Xu Qi'an and Sun Xuanji exhaled at the same time.
This was the plan they had discussed beforehand. Facing a Rank Two Asura and Rank Three Vajra, Xu Qi'an and Sun Xuanji weren't arrogant enough to think they could easily defeat the opponent.
A hot-blooded battle definitely wouldn't work. They had to use a certain strategy.
The Magic Sealing Nail was their trump card.
It was the only thing that could seriously injure a Warrior and weaken his combat power. It was even more useful than the Nation Suppressing Sword.
Reality proved that it was true. If Xu Qi'an borrowed the Nation Suppressing Sword again, he might not be able to defeat the enemy, and this Daibun's Divine Weapon might be left in the Southern Border forever.
Azuro's strength wasn't something a Rank Three Warrior could handle. It was highly likely that the weapon would be taken away.
In Xu Qi'an and Sun Xuanji's plan, Azuro would definitely try his best to deal with a Rank Three Warlock who could easily break the formation, and the Warlock's "weak body" would make the Warrior relax.
Therefore, the Magic Sealing Nail had to be shot by Sun Xuanji himself.
The only risk was that Senior Brother Sun would also have to bear the risk of dying.
However, the Warlock system's Teleportation Formation greatly reduced the risk. When Xu Qi'an discovered that Azuro had disappeared, he made a prompt decision and crushed the Teleportation Jade Talisman.
The Teleportation Point had already been set up in advance. It was on the fort, right in front of Sun Xuanji.
Xu Qi'an endured the pain in his chest, grabbed Azuro's neck, and jumped off the fort with him. They rolled and fell.
"Senior Brother Sun, release the seal!"
Xu Qi'an shouted.
