His hope having been extinguished, the methods that Yan Zhaoge had exerted on that young monk caused the other party to feel exceptionally intense.
Yan Zhaoge's methods could sufficiently allow the other party's senses to remain clear and their minds to remain calm. Only in this way could it be convenient for him to ask questions.
Of course, the pain brought by the punishment was even more obvious.
The young monk gritted his teeth and persevered while using his remaining rationality and calmness to think quickly.
"The Prime Clear lineage's Immortal Exterminating Sword … doesn't seem like it."
"My Buddhist martial arts … don't seem like it either."
"Those who believe in demons and evil gods … don't seem like it."
"The first of the ten Primordial Heavenly Scriptures of the Jade Clear lineage, the Peerless Heavenly Scripture … has been lost for too long. It is impossible to confirm."
"The innate divination inherited from the He Tu and Luo Shu? The head of the Grand Pure lineage's Grand Cosmos Five Manifestations, the Taiyi Fist? The Faceless Demon Scripture in the Nine Underworlds? "
In an instant, a few possibilities flashed through the young monk's mind. "I haven't heard any news about these three martial arts' legacies for a long time. Which one of them has reappeared?"
But no matter which one it was, it couldn't change a fact.
If not for the fact that the peak figures of Buddhism had some special considerations and were intentionally not making a move, Yan Zhaoge must have the ability to obstruct the transmission of the Buddha light!
Even if his group was killed here, the Buddhist experts who were stronger than him would not know about it.
It was very likely that while they did not know the location, they also did not know that it was Yan Zhaoge who had done it.
Their group had died in vain, but this young man in front of them could still get away with it!
At the thought of this, even the young monk, who had a firm heart and a strong will, could not help but feel despair, "When I saw him attack earlier, I couldn't see any traces of those lost ultimate arts at all!"
Yan Zhaoge looked at him calmly, "Big monk, it looks like this Yan didn't commit any sins, and there isn't any karmic retribution on me."
"At the very least, this retribution won't come anytime soon."
"I have plenty of time to chat with you. Let's see how long you can endure."
The young monk snorted as despair filled his eyes.
He said defiantly, "Benefactor, don't even think about getting anything from me!"
As he spoke, a blue glazed Buddhist light suddenly shone from within his body.
The Northern Ocean Clone attempted to suppress it, yet discovered that this Buddha light was not a method to resist him, instead acting upon the body of that young monk.
Yan Zhaoge's gaze flickered as he immediately pressed a hand against this monk's chest, chaos contained within his palm as he circulated the Peerless Heavenly Scripture, wanting to dispel this Buddha light.
However, the Buddhist light did not radiate outwards. Instead, it dimmed within the monk's body.
A sense of tranquility flowed out, silent and still.
The young monk chanted the name of Buddha in a low voice, "Buddha is merciful."
From then on, there was no more sound. His eyes were slightly closed, and the light was extinguished. His eyeballs were like clay sculptures.
A layer of pale gold appeared on his skin, making him look like a gilded Buddha statue.
There was not the slightest bit of aura left on his body. He had actually directly passed away.
Yan Zhaoge looked rather surprisedly at the young monk before him as his body gradually collapsed on its own, transforming into a faint golden sarira which remained silently on the Northern Ocean Clone's palm.
"Oh, it can be said to be a perfect self-destruction. Could it be that it is impossible to obtain any confessions from these monks?"
Yan Zhaoge stroked his lower chin, "I wonder if this is something that only Buddhist martial practitioners who have reached a certain level of cultivation can do, or is it possible for all Buddhist martial practitioners of this type to do so?"
"I was a little careless just now. If I had known earlier, I would have left a few more alive. Now, I could have experimented on them one by one."
Yan Zhaoge gazed at that sarira, "The Buddha light has been completely extinguished, yet is also unable to guide the location of the other Buddhist experts. It looks like this is his final resort. Before all hope is lost, he will not do it."
"The courage and resolution to end his own life are not something that everyone possesses. Still, it is hard to say for fanatics."
Yan Zhaoge sighed, keeping the sarira.
He glanced back at Sage Buddha Peak one last time, "I can only remember the location of this place. When the time is right in the future, I will return to take a look."
Yan Zhaoge was still somewhat concerned about this place.
That massive white elephant had already been completely slain by Pan-Pan.
Meanwhile, Pan-Pan had already regained his normal size now as he returned to the Myriad Dragon Palace alongside Yan Zhaoge and the Northern Ocean Clone.
Yan Zhaoge analysed the sarira in his hand, "While it has been extinguished, the Buddha light contained within is the same as those Buddhist martial practitioners whom I killed earlier."
As the Buddha light entered chaos, it was completely extinguished, unable to remain.
Within the Myriad Dragon Palace, Feng Yunsheng looked at Yan Zhaoge, "Won't they come looking for us again?"
Yan Zhaoge said, "These Buddhist martial practitioners should be the ones closest to this Obscured Way World. That monk who committed suicide should be the Buddhist martial practitioner with the highest cultivation base in the vicinity."
"If other Buddhist bigwigs with stronger cultivation bases are unable to learn of the situation here in time, they should still need some time before they can find their way here."
Feng Yunsheng heaved a sigh of relief before asking curiously, "From the words of those Prime Clear lineage martial practitioners, the peak experts of Buddhism should be able to know that you have killed people here. Still, no one has come even now. Could there be some misunderstanding here?"
Yan Zhaoge said, "That is not the case. The situation that they speak of is real. When you encounter Buddhist opponents in the future, you have to pay special attention to this as well."
"The reason that the other party did not act after I killed them was that I incorporated some of the Faceless Devil Scripture's techniques when I did so, concealing them and preventing them from transmitting any information."
"This is a very high-grade devilish art that can throw one's mind into chaos. It should not be cultivated in lightly. Still, since we know that our opponents have special methods now, we have to be prepared."
Yan Zhaoge explained, "I will impart some of this technique to you in a while. Do not let your foundations be thrown into chaos. Just use it as a method."
The Faceless Devil Scripture originated from the Faceless Heavenly Devil, one of the peak great devils of the Nine Underworlds, a legendary hegemon of legend.
This devilish art was one of the most high-grade devilish martial arts stored within the martial repository of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace.
It was just that the strength of the devilish nature within was unimaginable as it could affect one's mind.
Feng Yunsheng and the others all nodded.
Ah Hu smacked his lips, "That Miss Gao of the Roving Jade Heavens mentioned that the Dragon Spring Emperor is surnamed Long …"
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Sun Zhongda once mentioned that the Prime Clear lineage has a rather special legacy that originates from a senior apprentice-granduncle of his who is surnamed Long. It should be Miss Gao's granduncle's lineage."
It was precisely because he had thought of this that he had suddenly asked this question earlier.
The Dragon Spring Emperor leaving the World beyond Worlds and remaining in the Roving Jade Heavens might very well have been voluntary.
According to Gao Qing's description, while the Dragon Spring Emperor and the Profound Sovereign were a pair where the woman was strong and the man weak, the husband and wife were extremely loving.
With such a foundation of emotions between experts of such a level, how would the Profound Sovereign possibly force her husband to marry into her family and do such a humiliating thing aside from the Dragon Spring Emperor?
Of course, from the perspective of the World beyond Worlds and the Roving Jade Heavens, it would not be wrong to say that the Dragon Spring Emperor was marrying into her family. Still, this was not the same as the concept being different.
This Emperor was of the World beyond Worlds' Jade Clear direct lineage. It was not impossible that one of his descendants had been allowed to return to the World beyond Worlds to keep a low profile.
It only depended on whether the major figures of the World beyond Worlds viewed him as a traitor. (To be continued.)
