In the boundless deep abyss, the towering Buddha image turned to dust, and a beam of light soared up from below.
This was Yang Qing, who had absorbed the Buddha Mother's incense. Before she landed, she threw a palm strike at the Holy Son Ming Xuan.
The palm wind contained a cold intent. Everywhere it passed, it arrived before the Holy Son Ming Xuan in the blink of an eye.
The Holy Son Ming Xuan did not have time to think. He simply threw a palm strike.
"Boom!"
The two palms clashed. Yang Qing knocked back the Holy Son Ming Xuan with one palm strike, not moving at all. After absorbing the Buddha Mother's incense, her strength soared rapidly.
"What a strong palm strike!" The Holy Son Ming Xuan took a few steps back before he barely stabilized himself. Shock appeared on his face.
After being struck by Xiao Chen's Breaking the Mundane, Ming Xuan was clearly injured. He could not circulate much Veritable Essence Energy to clash with Yang Qing.
Instead of retreating, Yang Qing advanced. She burst forth with a terrifying Buddhist Might. The Buddha Mother's thirty-kilometer-tall figure appeared behind her, exuding might without anger.
A terrifying might spread out, making the injured Ming Xuan feel unbearable.
This …
It had been many years since Ming Xuan had such a feeling when facing someone of the same generation. This was truly surprising. What exactly happened for this girl, who was not worth mentioning earlier, to grow so much stronger?
She actually vaguely showed the might of a Star Venerate, catching everyone off guard.
Ming Xuan's expression immediately turned grave. The Buddhist prayer beads in his hand released a resplendent black light. A black lotus bloomed under his feet, and a gigantic black Buddha image appeared behind him.
"Bang!" Another palm strike clashed. The two were evenly matched. The Buddha images behind them had a stern expression and a ferocious expression. They fought intensely as well.
However, the Holy Son Ming Xuan was injured. This intense clash instantly deepened the injury on his chest.
The saber intent contained in the Seven Deadly Sins still stabbed into his chest lingered for a long time, continuously invading his meridians and internal organs.
What was more serious was that the true meaning of Breaking the Mundane had severed the most beautiful memories in his heart.
His heart was supreme, but it hurt his soul. A strange sense of loss and grief lingered for a long time.
The mundane world was hard to break, and obsession was hard to dispel. No matter how strong one's physical body was, the human heart was made of flesh.
Yang Qing drifted back with a grave expression. Unexpectedly, the Holy Son Ming Xuan could still clash head-on with her despite his severe injuries.
If Zhang Xuan hadn't been injured, he would have had to put in a lot of effort to defeat him.
With no time to think, Yang Qing shouted coldly and charged over once more.
After forcefully clashing for another three moves, the Holy Son Ming Xuan finally could no longer endure. Blood continuously oozed out of the Seven Deadly Sin on his chest.
Drip, drip, drip. It landed on the ground.
Xiao Chen, who was on the ground, stood up with much difficulty. He revealed an expression of luck. Fortunately, Yang Qing appeared at this crucial moment.
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although he still had some trump cards up his sleeve, his injuries were too severe and he couldn't use them at all. If he forcefully used it, the consequences would be extremely severe. Even without the other party doing anything, he would still die.
The Holy Son Ming Xuan was unexpectedly strong. This was especially so for his strange physical body. Xiao Chen wondered how he cultivated it.
"Let's go."
Yang Qing knew when to stop. After forcing back the Holy Son Ming Xuan, she no longer pushed back. Then, her figure flashed back and quickly left with Xiao Chen.
"Damn it!"
Rage burned in the Holy Son Ming Xuan's eyes. For the first time, anxiety appeared on his face. He had not expected such a result at all.
Something that should have been in the bag turned out to be an accident. The Holy Son Ming Xuan had always taken everything into account. Even when facing a Star Venerate, he could retreat calmly without losing his elegance.
However, today, an insignificant Xiao Chen actually managed to injure him. Furthermore, he was significantly injured.
That unremarkable woman had inexplicably become stronger all of a sudden. It was also inexplicable.
"Ka ca!"
The Holy Son Ming Xuan pulled out the Seven Deadly Sin from his chest. Then, like he was venting his hatred, he used all his strength to break the saber in half and tossed it to the ground.
However, this Seven Deadly Sin had been specially refined and was no ordinary weapon. After it broke, it immediately scattered.
It turned into seven beams of light of different colors and flew towards Xiao Chen, not doing much harm.
"Damn it!"
The Holy Son Ming Xuan roared furiously, venting all his frustration and dissatisfaction on his feet. Then, he stomped on the ground.
A crack appeared on the cliff, trembling endlessly. The crack extended downwards, looking like it would shatter at any moment.
The Holy Son Ming Xuan looked around and saw the unconscious white cat. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and his expression instantly turned cold.
Who knew, this white cat felt his gaze and quickly got up. Then, it nimbly chased after Xiao Chen and Yang Qing.
It turned out that the white cat had woken up long ago and had been pretending to be asleep.
"Interesting!"
After venting the rage in his heart, the Holy Son Ming Xuan completely calmed down. His expression recovered its gentle expression as he closed his eyes and started treating his injuries.
Clearly, the urgent matter now was not to show off his bravery but to quickly return to his peak.
He had to reevaluate Xiao Chen's strength. Then, he would find the other party and take him down at lightning speed.
The Demonic Bone Śarīra … the mission that his master gave him had to be completed. This concerned the great cause of the Black Lotus Church, something that could change the entire Buddhist Sect in the Great Thousand Realms.
…
Yang Qing quickly led Xiao Chen down the mountain. After walking for another two hours, she did not see the Holy Son Ming Xuan chasing after her. Only then did she relax.
There was no need to be polite between the two. Xiao Chen did not thank her. He asked, "You did not finish absorbing the power of the joss flames, right?"
It felt too fast. It would be very difficult to absorb all the power of the joss flames in such a short time.
Yang Qing nodded and smiled softly. "I can't do anything about it. That Holy Son Ming Xuan is too strong. If I had continued to absorb it unhurriedly, Young Master Xiao, you would have died."
Xiao Chen felt ashamed in his heart. In his life, he had rarely been saved by a woman. He asked, "Where are you going next?"
Reluctance flashed in Yang Qing's eyes. Her expression turned somewhat complicated. "I forcefully absorbed the power of the joss flames into my body. After a while, my body will explode and I will die."
"Ah!"
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly as he looked at the other party incredulously. He could not accept this.
Yang Qing smiled and said, "Don't be shocked. Even if I did not forcefully absorb it into my body, I would have chosen to sacrifice myself after absorbing the power of the joss flames. It is just a matter of time. Unfortunately, I originally wanted to stay a little longer. Now, I have no choice … "
"Bang!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Qing's entire body exploded. However, there was no blood or bones. Instead, it turned into a nine-colored spiritual aura that contained a dense Buddhist light. It flew into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.
This caught Xiao Chen off guard. He was stunned for a long time before recovering his wits.
As they chatted, Yang Qing's body exploded. It was really hard to accept.
Xiao Chen looked up at the sky and entered deep thought. He did not know if he would get a chance to see Yang Qing's true body again.
However, there was a great difference between an emanation body and a true body. Their personalities were very different. Xiao Chen thought for a while and concluded that it was best not to interact with a woman who dared to cultivate an emanation body. She would definitely be someone who was both righteous and evil.
Or perhaps, she was an evil cultivator.
At the back of the temple on the Buddha Seeking Platform, the Holy Son Ming Xuan opened his eyes and saw the nine-colored Spiritual Energy flying into the sky.
After his shock, he revealed an expression of understanding. It turned out to be the Azure Lotus Holy Daughter's emanation body. No wonder. No wonder. That is already a famous expert of the Great Thousand Realms.
Exceptionally difficult to deal with …
However, since you spoiled my plans, I will repay this debt sooner or later, even if you are the Azure Lotus Holy Daughter!
--- On the other side, Xiao Chen still did not feel very safe. He traveled alone and found a quiet place. After leaving behind a simple formation, he calmed down slightly.
Right now, there was only one thing to do: break through quietly!
In the earlier battle, Xiao Chen had already broken through his bottleneck. If he were too severely injured, he could break through the limits of the Veritable Personage Realm on the spot.
Closing his eyes, Xiao Chen swallowed a Medicinal Pill for treating injuries that Ye Zifeng had given him.
The Medicinal Pill melted the moment it entered his mouth, and a cooling sensation spread throughout his body. The pain in his body immediately eased significantly.
Naturally, the Medicinal Pill that Ye Zifeng had given him was not inferior.
Soon, Xiao Chen's strong physical body allowed him to recover from most of his injuries.
"It is time to break through!"
Xiao Chen opened his eyes. He had been waiting for this day for a long time already. However, when it truly arrived, his heart was calm.
