The swastika pierced through the golden barrier and landed on top of Tang Zheng's head.
Boom!
With a loud sound, it was as if the sky had collapsed, ruthlessly pressing down on Tang Zheng's body. He was completely sprawled on the ground, not even having the strength to gasp for breath.
"Ah — No!"
Li Xiaotian screamed involuntarily. She jumped in front of the golden barrier, feeling as if a knife was being twisted in her heart.
She reached out with both hands, trying to break through the golden barrier, but she was sent flying by a huge force, falling to the ground in a sorry state.
She was already a wisp of a living soul. She no longer had the strength she had when she was alive, so she had no way of resisting this force.
"No!"
Seeing this, Tang Zheng screamed at the top of his lungs.
"Dizang Of Goguryeo, don't hurt her."
Dizang Of Goguryeo floated in midair, golden light flickering. He glanced at Li Xiaotian and said, "Of course I won't hurt her. Miss, all life is equal, but you don't agree. Do you still insist on this view? "
Li Xiaotian staggered up, looking up at Dizang Of Goguryeo without the slightest fear. She said sternly, "Yes! All life cannot be absolutely equal. "
Dizang Of Goguryeo sighed and shook his head, saying, "Silly child, you are the same as him."
Pausing for a moment, Dizang Of Goguryeo said to Tang Zheng, "Your obsession is too deep. If you don't concentrate on comprehending the Ksitigarbha Sutra, your obsession will increase day by day, and it will only harm your cultivation. I passed on the Ksitigarbha Sutra to you, so of course I won't let you fall into this path. "
Tang Zheng's heart moved. He asked, "What do you want to do?"
Dizang Of Goguryeo stared deeply at Tang Zheng, neither sad nor happy. He said solemnly, "I want you to concentrate on comprehending the Ksitigarbha Sutra. When you suddenly wake up, it will be the time for you to leave the sea of bitterness."
Finished speaking, he flipped his palm. The swastika above Tang Zheng's head erupted with golden light, rumbling like thunder.
Crack!
The ground cracked open, revealing a bottomless pit.
Before Tang Zheng could react, his body rapidly fell down. He tried to circulate his power to counteract the force of the fall, but to no avail.
The ground healed bit by bit, and soon, it was completely sealed, as if everything that had happened just now was just an illusion.
If not for the fact that Tang Zheng had indeed disappeared, everyone would have thought that they had seen wrongly.
"Tang Zheng!" Li Xiaotian screamed at the top of his lungs and pounced over, only to find that he missed.
The golden barrier disappeared.
Only Shura was left lying on the ground with difficulty. He stared at Dizang Of Goguryeo fearfully.
Li Xiaotian kept slapping the ground as if he wanted the crack to reappear, but it was all in vain.
His voice was hoarse from crying, but he still couldn't get Tang Zheng to come back.
She suddenly turned her head and rushed to Dizang Of Goguryeo, begging, "Dizang Of Goguryeo, I beg you, let him come back. I beg you, I will agree to any conditions. I don't want to be resurrected, I want to stay in the World of Spirits and Souls."
All of this happened because of her, so one could imagine the self-blame and shame in her heart.
Dizang Of Goguryeo looked at her lightly, "He went to the sea of suffering. If he can understand the true meaning of the Ksitigarbha Sutra, he can naturally leave the sea of suffering and return to your side. As for your resurrection, you can't be resurrected. "
"No, I won't be resurrected. I beg you to let him return to the human world. He still has too many things to do, and many people need his protection."
The human world was full of changes. If Tang Zheng was gone for too long, she really couldn't predict what would happen.
Therefore, she had to think of a way to let Tang Zheng return to the human world.
Dizang Of Goguryeo didn't waver at all, saying, "This matter has been decided, there is no room for manoeuvre. If he wants to return to the human world as soon as possible, then the only way is to leave the sea of suffering as soon as possible. This is the right way. "
Seeing that he wouldn't budge no matter what, Li Xiaotian despaired and sat on the ground dispiritedly. She had never felt so helpless before.
When the other Kings of Hell saw this scene, they were deeply shocked.
They had always thought that Tang Zheng and Dizang Of Goguryeo had a close relationship. They never expected that Dizang Of Goguryeo would use a thunderous method to trap Tang Zheng.
What was that huge crack just now?
They didn't understand at all.
Hearing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's words, he was trapped in the Sea of Bitterness, but what kind of place was the Sea of Bitterness? They had never heard of it.
They once again deeply felt the gap between them and Dizang Of Goguryeo. They had originally planned to jump and resist, but at this moment, they all wanted to retreat in their hearts.
They looked at each other with ugly expressions. No one wanted to rush out and end up in the same state as Tang Zheng.
The Shura lay on the ground with a golden shield on his head, unable to move. His gaze towards Dizang Of Goguryeo was gradually filled with respect.
The Shura didn't have his past memories and didn't know about the feud with Dizang Of Goguryeo. However, he still regarded Dizang Of Goguryeo as an enemy.
Dizang Of Goguryeo also looked at the Shura and said thoughtfully, "Shura, you originally didn't have intelligence, but the Ksitigarbha Sutra gave you intelligence. This is your opportunity. You are fated with the Ksitigarbha Sutra."
"Roar —" The Shura wasn't interested in these words at all and roared hysterically.
Dizang Of Goguryeo saw this and shook his head slightly. "Your intelligence hasn't been fully awakened. You still can't understand the wonders of this opportunity. I don't blame you."
"During this period of time, I will properly convert you and get rid of the last bit of hostility in your body. That will be the time when you will truly be reborn."
Dizang Of Goguryeo wanted to convert the Shura. This was not an easy task. Back then, he didn't succeed. Now, he had a sudden impulse.
This wasn't difficult to understand.
Back then, the Shura was a killing machine without intelligence. It wasn't easy to convert him. After all, converting a machine was like playing the lute to a cow.
Now, it was different.
The Shura had intelligence. This could be converted. After all, with intelligence, he could think and receive information.
"I don't want you to convert me. I'm fine." The Shura roared and kept struggling.
"Stubborn and stubborn!" Dizang Of Goguryeo shook his head and sighed. "But I won't let go of any target of conversion. This is to save you, and also to save the common people."
The Shura naturally didn't agree. He used all his tricks and tried to escape from Dizang Of Goguryeo's hands. But it was to no avail.
Dizang Of Goguryeo no longer paid attention to the Shura. Instead, he turned his attention to the Ten Kings of Hell.
When the Ten Kings of Hell saw his gaze turn to them, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. Each and every one of their expressions became extremely unnatural.
King Yanluo felt as if there was a blade on his back. He said resentfully, "Dizang Of Goguryeo, don't misunderstand. This time, it's all because of Tang Zheng. If he didn't try so hard to get us to find you, we wouldn't have come here."
"Yes, yes. All of this is because of Tang Zheng." The other Kings of Hell nodded in agreement.
Song Jiangwang, however, didn't say anything and remained silent.
Dizang Of Goguryeo looked at him curiously and asked, "Song Jiangwang, don't you have anything to say?"
Song Jiangwang raised his head and met Dizang Of Goguryeo's gaze. Although Dizang Of Goguryeo's gaze was as calm and clear as a lake, it seemed to be able to see through his heart. It was as if he was standing naked in front of him without any secrets.
"It's true that all of this was Tang Zheng's idea. He only wanted to save people. However, everyone is still dissatisfied with your matter of saving all living beings. There's no doubt about this." Song Jiangwang took a deep breath and said in an earth-shattering manner.
"What?"
The other Kings of Hell turned pale with fright.
Song Jiangwang, are you kidding me?
If you want to die, why do you want to drag the other Kings of Hell down with you? This is too unkind.
Dizang Of Goguryeo looked at him with interest and said, "Do you have any objections to my actions?"
Song Jiangwang mustered all the courage in his body. He had never felt so conflicted and nervous before, but he still insisted on his answer.
"Yes, what this young lady said makes a lot of sense. The wish of equality for all living beings may seem beautiful, but in reality, it's like a castle in the air. Its foundation is unstable." Song Jiangwang said firmly.
Dizang Of Goguryeo glanced at the dazed Li Xiaotian and his expression changed, "Song Jiangwang, I didn't expect you to be the same as them. You're so shallow and stubborn."
Song Jiangwang shook his head, "I don't think so. Normally, I would seek out advantages and avoid disadvantages. But this time, I don't know why, but when I saw this young lady disregard her own safety and speak her truest thoughts, I was deeply shocked."
Dizang Of Goguryeo raised his eyebrows in surprise. He obviously knew that Dizang Of Goguryeo had always sought out advantages and avoided disadvantages. Now that the situation was clear, he actually spoke up for Li Xiaotian and opposed him. This was not a wise thing to do.
The other Kings of Hell also looked at Song Jiangwang. They felt that he had really gone crazy to say such words.
Two pairs of eyes stared at each other. An invisible pressure spread out from where their eyes met, making it hard for them to breathe.
"Good, very good!" After a long time, Dizang Of Goguryeo clapped his hands and praised, "In the ghost realm, there will always be a King of Hell who is good at speaking out for justice and speaking from his heart."
What?
Dizang Of Goguryeo actually praised Song Jiangwang? Was there a mistake? He was the exact opposite of Dizang Of Goguryeo, and he actually liked him?
Wasn't this masochistic?
Dizang Of Goguryeo's foresight was not something they could guess. He did not care about their shocked gazes. He pointed at Song Jiangwang, then at Li Xiaotian who was lying on the ground, and said, "If you don't believe me, then I will use my actions to prove it. From now on, the two of you will stay by my side and bear witness to everything. I will let you know that you are wrong, very wrong. "
Song Jiangwang's expression was calm, but his heart suddenly jumped. He seemed to be supporting Li Xiaotian and opposing Dizang Of Goguryeo. His integrity was commendable.
In reality, this was a strategy he had come up with after careful consideration. It was not an action he made on a whim.
Song Jiangwang's wisdom and resourcefulness were not for show.
When Tang Zheng disappeared into the crack, his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of the most advantageous strategy for himself.
He was certain that after this incident, Dizang Of Goguryeo's patience with the Ten Kings of Hell would no longer exist. He would promote his beliefs with great fanfare, and would not make a small fuss.
This was a showdown with the Kings of Hell. Anyone who dared to obstruct him would not have a good ending.
The position of the Ten Kings of Hell was in jeopardy.
Song Jiangwang had to think of a countermeasure as soon as possible.
He indeed lived up to his name and came up with a countermeasure, which was to support Li Xiaotian. This way, he would be able to separate himself from the other Kings of Hell's camp.
This was a risky move. Song Jiangwang was gambling. If he gambled right, then he would succeed. If he gambled wrong, then he would be like the other Kings of Hell. There would be no worse outcome.
Without a doubt, Song Jiangwang gambled right.
Dizang Of Goguryeo allowed him and Li Xiaotian to bear witness to everything. This meant that Song Jiangwang had successfully separated himself from the other Kings of Hell's camp.
What would happen to the other Kings of Hell?
Nothing good!
