"Spoil your cultivation, spoil your merit?"
Qin Mu sneered and slashed at the other chains, "You are just a bronze buddha statue, where would your merit come from? Your merit comes from suppressing Woman Wu here. Even when Woman Wu eats people in front of you, you still sit by and do nothing. If you had merit, it would have long been spoiled! "
The body of the huge buddha trembled and the blood markings on the bronze body gave off rays of light which were reflected by the gold leaf outside. It transformed into a huge buddha that was shining with golden light and said in a muffled voice, "Do you know how many people it will eat and how many lifeforms it will destroy if you release it?"
"I only know that it hides countless corpses behind your back and uses you to do evil. I haven't seen you do anything."
Qin Mu broke the second chain and sneered, "It's the ice tide outside and it will erupt a few times every year. What have you done? That is merit. It's not merit just because you sit in the temple and suppress a demon. What's more, you even connive at the demon eating people. If you shatter the ice tide and save the people downstream, you will have great merit! "
The buddha statue shone with golden light and its hands moved as though it was going to come alive. Woman Wu was incomparably terrified and immediately shouted, "This old bald donkey is an evil buddha, he's going to refine me to death. Hurry up!"
Qin Mu's footsteps were as though he was flying as he flashed out of the temple and executed Junior Protector Sword to slash at the chains outside the temple.
"The evil of all living beings needs to be cleansed by the flood before they can shed off their evil. This is their karma caused by their cause."
Boom.
Violent tremors traveled over and the bronze buddha stood up. His head smashed through the ancient temple and his voice shook the heaven and earth, "You unorthodox devil, how dare you spoil Buddhism. Evil creature is stubborn and can't be enlightened!"
The chains that were locking the bronze body of the buddha statue and Woman Wu instantly seemed to come alive as they broke through the air and swept towards Qin Mu.
"You Buddhists save people because you want to save yourself, not because you want to save others. Hypocrisy."
Qin Mu leaped to avoid the entanglement of a chain and executed Junior Protector Sword to slash at the last chain, "Back then when you suppressed Woman Wu, if you had killed her, it could still be counted as your merit. However, you suppressed her and made her harm others. It's her sin for eating humans. The deeper her sin, the greater your merit for refining her? Bah! The people who were eaten by Woman Wu should be counted on your head! "
Clang!
Junior Protector Sword collided with the chains and a huge force came from the chains, knocking the treasured sword away.
Qin Mu grunted and stepped back to avoid the two black python-like chains behind him. He sneered and said, "You're sitting in the temple with the flood outside. Not only are you not going to save them, but you're also trying to stop me from saving them. You're still fantasizing about merits? Let me tell you something. Every year, the elders in my village fight against the ice tide and save the people and animals downstream. They have saved countless lives! If one could become a Buddha by virtue of merit, each of them would have become a Golden Buddha instead of a clay statue! "
"Preposterous!"
That bronze Buddha was incomparably tall. He raised his leg and landed on the ground with a boom. Walking out of the dilapidated temple, he put his palms together and the sound of metal colliding rang out. Buddha rays instantly burst forth and bounced Qin Mu away!
Qin Mu's limbs and bones trembled violently. While he was still in midair, the chains had already locked onto him!
Qin Mu's feet tapped on the chains continuously and he sprinted along the chains. His vital qi controlled Junior Protector Sword to fly towards the last chain that was locking Woman Wu.
The chains were like incomparably thick pythons as they crisscrossed in midair and attacked Qin Mu repeatedly, dazzling him.
This bronze Buddha was clearly forged from brass yet it was incomparably nimble. It was simply unimaginable.
Previously, the bronze Buddha couldn't differentiate between Qin Mu and Woman Wu. As long as Qin Mu said the devil language, the bronze Buddha would automatically react and say the incantations of Buddhism to refine Woman Wu. Now that Qin Mu was trying to release Woman Wu, the bronze Buddha had a different appearance and actually took the initiative to attack him.
The thick chains crisscrossed and Qin Mu stepped on one of the chains to avoid the attacks of the other chains.
Meanwhile, the power that came from the bronze Buddha through the chains gradually increased. The friction between the chains caused Qin Mu to lose his footing and his legs turned numb from the vibrations. The accuracy of his control of Junior Protector Sword wasn't as good as before.
The power of this bronze Buddha became stronger and stronger as if there was boundless power in its body. At this moment, this power was awakening bit by bit.
Madam Si, Cripple and the rest had mentioned this bronze Buddha before and said that it was very strange. Madam Si said that she had once wanted to get rid of Woman Wu but was stopped by the bronze Buddha and didn't succeed.
Madam Si was naturally extremely strong but she didn't get rid of Woman Wu. This meant that when the power of the bronze Buddha was completely awakened, it would be extremely terrifying!
And now, the power of the bronze Buddha was awakening bit by bit!
Even if it only awakened a little, it wasn't something that Qin Mu could resist.
At this moment, the sound of mountains collapsing and the earth splitting rang out. The ice tide that was rushing down from upstream had finally reached here. The towering ice mountain that was dozens of yards tall appeared in front of the oasis, behind Qin Mu!
Qin Mu was immediately shrouded by the shadow and hurriedly turned his head back to take a look. He saw countless ice cubes being squeezed and rolling as they rushed up to the peak of the ice mountain. They then rolled down from the peak and were crushed to the bottom of the water. New ice cubes were sent up to the peak of the ice mountain and rolled down again.
As the ice tide crushed everything in its path, the corpses on the ice had already been crushed into powder and couldn't be found anymore. Only the ice mountain that was rolling forward was left, looking like it was going to crush everything!
"Tut —"
The bronze Buddha also seemed to feel the impending danger and couldn't care about Qin Mu. It opened its arms wide and pushed against the rolling ice tide.
