The Great Thunderclap Temple did not have a dome to cover it. Looking up, one could see the stars in the sky, and the surroundings were silent.
Ye Xuan wore a moon-white monk's robe as he sat cross-legged on the Buddha's golden lotus. He twirled a string of Buddha beads in his hand as he chanted the Vajra Sutra in a low voice. His peaceful and heavy chanting also slightly reverberated within the Great Thunderclap Temple.
However, if someone were to stand in front of Ye Xuan, they would be horrified to realize that Ye Xuan's current expression was sinister. There was no sign of the peaceful and compassionate Buddhism at all.
"Jiuyou Tower?"
Suddenly, Ye Xuan's chanting stopped abruptly. He blurted out these three words, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Jiuyou Tower was not famous in the Three Realms. Very few people knew that Jiuyou Tower was a forbidden area in the Spirit Mountain, and it imprisoned many ferocious demons in the world.
However, Ye Xuan knew very well that the ferocious demons suppressed in Jiuyou Tower were all extraordinary beings. The one with the lowest cultivation level was Daluo Jinxian, and there were many Sage-to-be figures among them.
In the early years of the Eldritch Age, the Two Sages of the West subdued demons. How could the ferocious demons that they personally took action be ordinary people?
There were a few forbidden areas in the world. Jiuyou Tower was one of them, and so was the Eighteen Levels of Hell. However, people only knew how terrifying the Eighteen Levels of Hell were, but they did not know that the ferocious demons in Jiuyou Tower were also extremely terrifying.
"Ferocious demons of the world?"
"Interesting, very interesting. I wonder how capable these ferocious demons of the Eldritch Age are compared to me, a ferocious demon of the present world?"
Ye Xuan stood up from the Buddha's golden lotus and walked out of the Great Thunderclap Temple against the starry sky. A ring of Buddha's light rose behind him, and his face became merciful and peaceful again.
Jiuyou Tower was located in the deepest part of the Spirit Mountain. It was surrounded by a barren stone forest, and there was not a single bit of vegetation growing there. The pitch-black tower towered into the clouds and was hidden in the clouds, giving people the feeling that they were looking at flowers in the fog.
Ye Xuan stood below the Jiuyou Tower and smiled as he looked at the entire Jiuyou Tower. Buddhist suppressions were engraved on the tower's body, as if they were golden chains.
A stone door that was as black as ink. Two Arhats stood on both sides of the door. It was obvious that this was the door to the Jiuyou Tower. When the two Arhats saw Ye Xuan appear here, they nervously bowed towards him.
"Buddha!"
"Yes."
Ye Xuan nodded. From the beginning to the end, a peaceful smile hung on his face, giving off a harmless feeling.
"Reporting to Buddha, Randeng has already been sent into Jiuyou Tower. He definitely won't be able to escape. Buddha, don't worry," one of the Arhats said with a flattering smile.
"Open Jiuyou Tower."
Ye Xuan took a deep look at the dark door. His voice was still calm and steady, giving people a feeling of a spring breeze.
"Open … Open Jiuyou Tower?"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the two Arhats were stunned. Then, their expressions changed drastically. "Buddha, you can't do that. Jiuyou Tower has imprisoned all the ferocious demons of the world for generations. You are the number one Buddha of Spirit Mountain. How can you be tainted by the filthy aura of these ferocious demons?"
"Open it."
Ye Xuan frowned, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. This also made the two Arhats' expressions change slightly. They looked at each other and could only do as Ye Xuan said. After all, Ye Xuan was the true ruler of Spirit Mountain.
Buzz!
Two Demon Subduing Golden Seals were sent out by the two Arhats. They instantly merged into the dark door, causing Jiuyou Tower to undergo a miraculous change.
Rumble!
Jiuyou Tower seemed to be shaking. The Buddhist proverbs engraved on the tower seemed to be illusory. Following a loud rumble, the dark door slowly opened.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the heavens and earth shook, and the void shook. Black wind rolled around the opened Jiuyou Tower, and a thick smell of blood spewed out. It was like an abyss of hell that chose people to devour. The terrifying ferocious demon's roar made one's soul tremble. The two Arhats were drenched in cold sweat, and they kept retreating in fear.
"Buddha!"
The two Arhats cried out in a trembling voice. They wanted to quickly close the door. Clearly, the ferocious demons of heaven and earth in Jiuyou Tower were too terrifying. Opening the door for even a second longer would cause great danger. If a ferocious demon of heaven and earth really escaped from Jiuyou Tower, the entire Spirit Mountain would suffer an unimaginable calamity.
"Great!"
Ye Xuan smiled slightly, but there was a hint of ferocity on his face. There was also a hint of excitement in his eyes. Under the shocked gazes of the two Arhats, Ye Xuan actually strode into Jiuyou Tower.
"Buddha, you can't enter Jiuyou Tower!" The two Arhats shouted anxiously. They never thought that Ye Xuan would actually risk his life to enter Jiuyou Tower.
It was no wonder that the two Arhats were so worried. Jiuyou Tower was where the ferocious demons of heaven and earth were suppressed. These demons were extremely terrifying. Moreover, it wasn't just these demons. Jiuyou Tower also had heavenly lightning and earthly fire. Even a Sage-to-be would suffer a great calamity if they entered.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan didn't seem to hear the two Arhats' dissuasion. He entered Jiuyou Tower under the shocked gazes of the two Arhats. As the dark door closed with a rumble, Ye Xuan disappeared from their eyes just like that.
"Oh no, oh no. Buddha Qing Ming actually entered Jiuyou Tower. Let's quickly report this to the other Buddhas."
The two Arhats looked at each other and saw the solemn look in each other's eyes. They didn't dare to delay any longer. They immediately transformed into two streaks of light and left. It was obvious that they were going to report the matter of Ye Xuan entering Jiuyou Tower to the various Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
Jiuyou Tower was where the ferocious demons of heaven and earth were suppressed. Even if the various Buddhas of Spirit Mountain captured some demons and threw them into Jiuyou Tower, they would only act in the outside world. They would never dare to enter Jiuyou Tower themselves. This was because anyone who entered Jiuyou Tower had never come out.
At this moment, Ye Xuan risked his life to enter Jiuyou Tower. This was simply an act of seeking death. If anything really happened to him, the various Buddhas of the West would definitely bear a huge responsibility. How would they explain it to the two Sages of the West?
Jiuyou Tower!
Woo woo woo!
A foul wind rolled in the air. The Bone Melting Astral Wind whistled in Jiuyou Tower. It was impossible to see the end of the dark space. A straight and wide path extended upwards. From time to time, one could see piles of white bones lying on the ground.
Roar!
Numerous terrifying ghostly figures suddenly appeared above Ye Xuan's head. Their bloody eyes were abnormally terrifying in the darkness. Eerie laughter came from their mouths as they pounced and bit at Ye Xuan crazily.
"Demons and monsters, you're courting death!"
Ye Xuan laughed coldly. The Buddha's Light of the Great Sun suddenly exploded, instantly turning these ghosts into wisps of white smoke. Miserable screams could be heard from the area.
"Amitabha!"
Ye Xuan's grayish-white hair fell behind his head. He was wearing a white monk robe as he strolled forward. The Buddha's Light around him was dazzling like a golden sun, illuminating the dark space around him.
"Ah!"
Wisps of black smoke exploded with a bang. The ghosts hiding in the darkness screamed miserably. It was obvious that the Buddha's Light of the Great Sun on Ye Xuan was their nemesis. Even the slightest touch would bring them great calamity.
