Chapter 3: The Wrong Time!
Chapter 869
Past Present Future
The Purple Mansion Sage's power was extraordinary. He had set up his battle with Xuanyuan in a fixed space, using that hellish scroll to cover an area of tens of kilometers. It was like a gigantic cage, isolated from the rest of the world. The flames of battle raged, but the ripples of battle qi did not affect the outside world in the slightest. The Purple Mansion Sage's mastery of battle qi and his profound cultivation level were obvious.
Astral winds engraved with Dao marks formed thirty-six thousand-feet-tall Goat Horn Whirlwinds that swept out violently. Cold light flickered in the astral winds, and destructive astral wind blades swept out, emitting ear-piercing howls that made one's scalp go numb and body go cold. There was simply no way to dodge. Even an Earthly Immortal would die if he was caught in it. There was absolutely no way to escape.
Yet even in the face of such a terrifying Goat Horn Astral Wind attack, and the sky full of purple lightning snakes and flames, Xuanyuan's expression did not change.
The golden Buddhist radiance rolled like a glazed wall, the indestructible Vajra and endless Buddhist principles interweaved and dissolved the purple lightning dragons and snakes, engulfing the underground flames and blocking the Goat-Horn Astral Wind. The deafening sonorous sound spread in all directions, causing the eardrums of countless people to rupture as they screamed miserably and fled far away from the battlefield. There were even some people who directly fainted from the impact of the sound, not knowing if they were dead or alive. This was the fate of those who were not strong enough to get too close!
Xuanyuan sat cross-legged in mid-air, still motionless like a mountain as he chanted a mantra. A swastika Buddhist pattern manifested. This was the swastika mantra formed by the convergence of nine ancient Buddhas. When it began to circulate, another indescribable rhythm of the Great Dao could be felt, as if it was reincarnation after reincarnation, cultivating the merits of ten lifetimes to achieve a golden body. The sky was filled with Sanskrit chants and merciful Qi, fighting against the ruthlessness of the Heavenly Dao.
The Purple Mansion Sage's expression was cold. The Moon's Embrace in his hand once again emitted a terrifying sound. Clang, clang, clang. The stream of water condensed into sword-like heavenly ice, covering the entire sky. Each sword of heavenly ice was strong enough to pierce through an Earth Immortal.
Within a radius of several li, the Heavenly Ice Long Swords covered the sky like rain, freezing the entire space. If an ordinary person were to get close, they would be frozen into an ice sculpture by that terrifying cold Qi. Even their souls would find it hard to escape. It was extremely terrifying.
With a single thought from the Purple Mansion Sage, the ten thousand swords attacked in unison. The space that had originally been frozen was instantly torn apart, leaving behind nothing but nothingness. The swords formed a terrifying trajectory that slashed towards Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan waved his hand, and the chanting of the nine ancient Buddhas around him grew louder and louder. This was an explosion of confidence and determination, causing countless people to tremble involuntarily. The Buddhist mantra behind his head also began to operate, sitting in the center, making the golden glass wall even more stable.
Clang! Clang! Clang! The sounds of the Heavenly Ice Long Swords shattering reverberated throughout the heavens! The four types of Great Dao of Natural Calamities were still unable to break through Xuanyuan's defensive measures! The power of the Diamond Sutra was unleashed at this moment!
"Little one, you better think this through! If you continue to fight against this Purple Mansion Sage, you will definitely lose! The Qiankun Mountains and River Diagram still has four types of Great Dao of Natural Calamities behind it! The power of the eight Great Dao of Natural Calamities will increase by eight times! How can you block it? Unless you want to expose your identity!" The Greedy Old Man's voice suddenly rang out. Right now, Xuanyuan was the only one who knew how much wealth he had on him. Many things could not be touched!
"Of course I know that! I'll try to neutralize it!"
Xuanyuan slowly opened his eyes and looked at the Purple Mansion Sage calmly.
He said slowly, "You can't kill me! Do you know that you are two major realms higher than me? But after fighting for so many rounds, you still can't kill me! Don't you feel embarrassed? "
Xuanyuan no longer concealed his own strength. His Seventh Revolution Battle Immortal cultivation had appeared in front of everyone. Previously, a terrifying existence had sensed that Xuanyuan's strength might not have reached the Life Immortal level. That was because once a person reached the Life Immortal level, they would give off a completely different feeling. After stepping into the Life Immortal level, the aura of defying heaven and changing fate would appear invisibly, and one's body would also undergo a huge change. However, Xuanyuan gave off an extremely vague feeling! Of course, it was also possible that Xuanyuan was hiding his strength! After Xuanyuan had fought with the Purple Mansion Sage for so long, many people felt that Xuanyuan belonged to the latter category. However, they never expected that Xuanyuan was really only a Seventh Revolution Battle Immortal!
When the Purple Mansion Sage sensed that Xuanyuan's strength was only at the Seventh Revolution Battle Immortal level, he was shocked and angry. To him, this was too unbelievable. He had just stepped into the Earth Immortal level, and he could even kill ordinary Sky Immortals. Now, he was in a stalemate with a Seventh Revolution Battle Immortal for so long.
"How is this possible? A Seventh Revolution Battle Immortal can block my attack?"
"That's right, Purple Mansion Sage. Do you finally understand why I said that your achievements are so low? You can't defeat me! If you don't believe me, you can use all your trump cards! I'll take them all on! "Xuanyuan used the Buddha's Mind Transformation to attack the Purple Mansion Sage's Dao Heart. Xuanyuan changed his attack to defense. Actually, if the Purple Mansion Sage attacked with all his might, he definitely wouldn't be able to take it on!
"Don't even think about breaking my Dao Heart! So what if you're a Seventh Revolution Battle Immortal? Everyone has their own strength! It's your ability to last this long. I'm not afraid of you even if you're an Ancient Emperor! I'm the Purple Mansion Sage, the future leader of the Purple Mansion Immortal Sect! My will is not something you can shake! In this world, there's only victory and defeat, and there's no fairness!"
The Purple Mansion Sage was not an ordinary person. He had taken control of a person's heart in a split second, and it was inevitable that he would appear to be bullying the weak in front of so many people. However, for the sake of that mystical stone, the Purple Mansion Sage would not care about such things. He believed that as long as he could obtain that mystical stone with the Daoist's five hearts facing the heavens, it wouldn't matter much if his reputation was damaged or not. This was his way of balancing his dao heart.
"Haha, is that so? The Purple Mansion Immortal Sect claims to be a righteous sect, but it looks like you're just a fake emperor. You said you wanted to spar with us Buddhists, but it turns out it's because of a strange stone that was naturally formed by the heavens and the earth. It seems to contain a shocking secret. So that's how it is. Qu Zhi used it to lure you to kill me. Since that's the reason, why did you have to make it sound so grand? "
Xuanyuan's words were just a bait. More importantly, he wanted to draw out the Purple Mansion Sage's inner thoughts. Xuanyuan knew that if he continued like this, he wouldn't be a match for the Purple Mansion Sage.
Unless he used the terrain that he had carved out earlier, his strength would increase prematurely, and he would lose a bargaining chip in the stone-gambling competition. He wouldn't even have a single combat coin on him. Although he still had quite a bit of pure Spiritual Qi, if he wanted to compete with the Purple Mansion Sage, who had come prepared for the stone-gambling competition, he definitely wouldn't be a match for him. Xuanyuan knew that he was at a disadvantage, but his expression didn't change. Right now, he could only resolve this situation first. The Purple Mansion Sage would settle the score with him in the future.
The Purple Mansion Sage's expression changed when he heard this.
"How did you know? Shut your mouth! "
"Haha! The power of the Buddhist sect is limitless! We can see the past, grasp the present, and predict the future! That strange stone that was naturally formed in the form of a Daoist with five hearts facing the heavens is indeed a divine item! I can already see how it looks when it's born! The Nine God Lightning is truly heaven-defying! No wonder you would come to kill me for it!" Xuanyuan's expression was calm and composed. At this moment, he was just making things up. He knew that the agreement between Qu Zhi and the Purple Mansion Sage was that Qu Zhi would obtain the stone by killing him. If the Qu Family knew that the stone was so valuable, they would definitely come to stop it.
They wouldn't let it fall into the Purple Mansion Sage's hands! Qu Zhi's expression changed when he heard this. He was panicking. He had studied that strange stone for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. He wasn't sure what was hidden within it. Also, this strange stone was extremely mysterious. Only a few people knew about it.
Could it be that the Buddhist sect's techniques could really see the past, grasp the present, and predict the future?
Jiang Yan sighed softly.
"Looks like Master Su Xuan is indeed the successor of the Buddhist Emperor. Rumor has it that the Tempest Temple has three supreme Buddhist scriptures: the Sutra of the Past, the Sutra of the Present, and the Sutra of the Future. If cultivated to the ultimate level, it would be comparable to the Nine Great Ancient Techniques. You can see the past, grasp the present, and predict the future! I was skeptical about it, but I didn't expect it to be true.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it! "Peng Fei's expression changed when he heard Jiang Yan's words. He didn't expect Xuanyuan to have hidden his strength so well. He had even obtained the three supreme Buddhist scriptures from the Tempest Temple. He was really a blind cat. He had casually mentioned the Tempest Temple, and he had actually exposed Xuanyuan's background. Could it be that Xuanyuan really had some connection with the Buddhist sect in the Western Continent? Even if the Devouring Emperor was extremely powerful, he wouldn't be able to obtain all three supreme Buddhist scriptures at the same time!
Qu Zhi was completely regretful. It seemed that he was right. Xuanyuan had mentioned the Nine Heavenly Thunder again. Even if he didn't kill Xuanyuan, he didn't want to hand over the strange stone to someone else.
As expected, an old man walked out. He had a benevolent expression and a warm smile on his face.
"Qu Zhi is too young. Please forgive me if I have offended you. Both of you are geniuses of the younger generation. Both of you are the treasures of the human race. In the future, you will be the rising stars of the Archean royalty. Please don't kill each other. This matter is over …"
