On the ship, Jiang Nan and Yun Peng were leisurely discussing scriptures and Daoism as they flew towards the South Sea. Condor Demon King turned into a bald Daoist and accompanied them. He chuckled and said, "My lord, I heard that there will be many beautiful ladies attending the South Sea Feast. I'll make sure they ride on my big bird!"
Jiang Nan laughed involuntarily and said, "Daemon King, we're not going to the Southern Sea for the little lady. It's because Senior Brother Yun and I want to exchange for some high quality materials to forge our own treasures."
Yun Peng laughed, "Those women are bottomless pits. Even if you have a mountain of gold and silver, it won't be enough. Why not find a good dao partner and fly together?"
Thousands of miles away, Gui Qianchou stood on a cloud, looking coldly at the thousand-ship. Suddenly, four figures in black flew over, surrounded by a cold and gloomy aura. They bowed and said, "Master, Muqing and the others have accomplished their mission. Linghu Yong has been beheaded, his head is here!"
Gui Qianchou glanced at the head and lightly flicked his finger. Linghu Yong's head immediately turned into ashes. He said indifferently, "Good. Now it's Jiang Nan, Jiang Zi Chuan, and Yun Peng's turn! "
Just as he was about to give the order to attack, he suddenly heard a sonorous cry. His heart stirred slightly, and he looked towards the source of the sound. He saw a five-colored peacock with its wings stretching to the sky, flapping its wings as it flew towards the ship.
"Heavenly Demon Saintess of Demon God Palace?"
He frowned and whispered, "Why is she near those two brats? Is she going to kill that Jiang brat as well? "
In the Seven Treasure Forest, Jiang Nan had plotted against the Great Devil and Supreme Sovereign Ancestor of the Hundred Desires God Slaughter Valley. The Sky Demon Saintess had been besieging Luo Huayin at that time and was also implicated. A few experts of the Sky Demon Palace had died, and even the saintess had been severely injured. Her soul had almost dissipated.
This was naturally a blood feud. Therefore, Gui Qianchou was certain that the saintess was here to take revenge on Jiang Nan!
"If those two brats die in her hands, it will save me a lot of trouble. I can also let Luo Huayin start a war with the Demon God Palace and weaken their strength!"
He suppressed the urge to make a move and quietly observed the situation.
Inside the ship, Jiang Nan's expression suddenly changed. He stood up and said, "We have a guest."
Yun Peng and Condor Demon King also sensed a powerful aura rapidly approaching. They immediately got up and walked out of the cabin. Looking up, they saw a multicolored peacock flying over with a beautiful woman standing barefoot on the peacock's feathers. They approached the Chiliocosm Fortress Ship.
Vulture Monster King was shocked to see the size of the peacock, which was dozens of times bigger than the Great Thousand Fortress Ship. He murmured, "Beauties really like to ride big birds. Too bad I'm not as big as this bird …"
Yun Peng's heart trembled as he thought to himself, So it is the Heavenly Demon Saintess. Could this woman be here to seek revenge on Junior Brother Jiang? It was said that she was a genius of the Sky Demon Palace. Her cultivation was extremely high, and she could stand shoulder to shoulder with the chief disciples of the major sects. Before entering the Seven Treasures Forest, he was already an expert at the peak of the Seven Treasures Platform stage. It was possible that he had already cultivated to the Divine Palace stage. If she were to attack, I'm afraid that Junior Brother Jiang and I would be killed by her!
Jiang Nan's expression was somewhat solemn. The Sky Demon Saintess did indeed have a grudge against him, and she had almost died because of him. Several experts of the Demon Race had also fallen to the immortal light of the Immortal Creation Cauldron.
"With my speed, the Saintess might not be able to catch up to me if I want to leave, but Senior Brother Yun Peng might suffer. But if she really wanted to kill me, she could have done it long ago. Maybe she has other intentions since she didn't. "
The barefoot girl smiled and asked, "Fellow Daoists, aren't you going to invite this Little Sister inside?"
Jiang Nan smiled and extended his hand. "Saintess, please."
With a smile on her face, the Heavenly Demon Saintess leisurely walked down from the peacock and landed on the thousand-ship. The peacock behind her folded its wings and turned into a young girl who looked like a maid, following closely behind her.
"Mother bird?" The Vulture Demon King smiled and threw flirtatious glances at the peacock girl.
The girl glared at him, then raised her head and ignored him like a proud peacock.
Jiang Nan invited the Saintess to take a seat and smiled. "Saintess, you're just passing by. Don't tell me you're really here to kill me?"
"My surname is Hua, and my name is Lian Xiang. This is my junior sister, Caiyi. Daoist Jiang, you're treating me like an outsider by calling me Saintess."
The Saintess smiled. "This Little Sister is indeed passing by. I saw this ship in the sky and remembered that Daoist Jiang also has a ship like this, so I came to take a look. Sure enough, it's Daoist Jiang and Daoist Yun. Don't worry, this Little Sister has no ill intentions. "
She smiled and said, "A few days ago, my Sect Master gazed at the Xuan Tian Sacred Sect and saw your sect's sincerity soaring into the sky like an unshakable mountain. He once told me that the Xuan Tian Sacred Sect is about to prosper and that we can join hands to fight against Taihuang. That's why this Little Sister was tempted to meet Daoist Jiang by chance. Firstly, I want to resolve my grudge with Daoist Jiang and the others, and secondly, I want to get closer to them. "
She had a strange charm. Although she spoke very bluntly and didn't mince her words, saying that she had ulterior motives for befriending Jiang Nan and the others, it gave people a good impression of her.
Jiang Nan smiled. "Princess Lian Xiang is a heroine who doesn't lose to men. Our two sects should indeed get closer, but Senior Brother Yun and I are insignificant people. Princess should look for the higher-ups of our sacred sect. "
"Both of you are dragons and phoenixes among men. In the future, you will definitely become the peak characters of your sect. Befriending you now is like sending charcoal in snowy weather. In the future, when you become famous, it will be like sending goose feathers from a thousand miles away."
The Sky Demon Saintess spoke quickly and smiled. "Moreover, I was planning to go to the Southern Sea this time and met you two by chance. It's a good chance to get closer to you two."
Yun Peng couldn't help but sigh. She was truly a strange woman. Her words were straightforward, but it was hard for people to have any ill feelings. He smiled and said, "We're also heading to the Southern Sea, so it's on the way."
"Lian Xiang made a small fortune in the Seven Treasure Forest. This time, I'm going to the Southern Sea to exchange for some treasures."
The Sky Demon Saintess pursed her lips and smiled. "You two Daoist brothers aren't going to the Southern Sea to be corrupt, right? You humans have a saying: a fair and graceful lady is a gentleman's hobby. It's quite fitting. "
"It's a gentleman's hobby."
Jiang Nan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "This time, Senior Brother Yun and I are also planning to find some treasures and refine them into artifacts in preparation to advance to the Dao Foundation Realm."
As they were talking, they suddenly felt a ghostly aura in front of them. Waves of chilling air assaulted their faces, even entering the cabin. Even the Great Thousand Fortress Ship couldn't block this chill.
The Sky Demon Saintess' expression was solemn. She said in a low voice, "We've arrived at the Ghost Buddha City …"
Yun Peng's expression was also solemn. He said in a low voice, "After the Ghost Buddha City is the Southern Sea. I heard that this Ghost Buddha City used to be a Buddhist holy land a thousand years ago. Later on, it suffered a calamity. In one night, billions of lightning bolts struck down, killing all the monks in the mountain. Not even a mouse or a fly was left."
Jiang Nan walked out of the cabin and looked ahead, only to see a mountain range that was in ruins. Among the mountains, there were some ruins of grand temples. One could faintly see the prosperous appearance of the past, but these temples had long been in ruins, leaving only broken fences and broken walls. It was incomparably desolate.
Wisps of ghostly fire could be seen drifting about in the mountains.
The most terrifying thing was that the mountains were filled with huge sword pits. They were so deep that one couldn't see the bottom. It was as if countless sharp swords fell from the sky and pierced deep into the mountains, killing all the living beings there!
Yun Peng and the Sky Demon Saintess walked out of the cabin. The peacock girl followed them and said in a crisp voice, "A thousand years ago, when I was still young, I heard about this. It seems that this Buddhist holy land offended a god. That god was enraged and sent down heavenly punishment. Those sword pits were actually marks left behind by the heavenly lightning. Those monks died unwillingly, and when they died, they were filled with hostility and hatred towards heavenly deities. As a result, they turned into malicious spirits, roaming about this place without leaving. "
"I heard that a powerful Ghost Buddha appeared here."
Yun Peng said in a low voice, "The Ghost Buddha led thousands of ghost monks to occupy this place and turned this place into the Ghost Buddha City. We need to be careful lest we get entangled by those Ghost Buddhas and ghost monks. "
Slowly, the Thousand Fortress Ship sailed past the Ghost Buddha City. All of a sudden, a boundless Buddhist radiance rose from the Ghost Buddha City. It was peaceful, tranquil, and filled with righteousness. It felt like it was going to sweep away all evil and purify all living beings!
Amidst the Buddhist light, a golden Buddha sat in the void. Countless delicate and pretty flying Buddhas filled the sky, chanting the name of Buddha. The great Buddha chanted loudly, and the sound of Buddha rang out. The golden light spread out in all directions, and the area it covered was getting wider and wider.
"Why can't all living beings in this world be free? All living beings are born from illusory to real. Not a single one of them is righteous. That's why there are many in hell and few who are free … "
The Buddhist chants gave off a feeling of compassion as if an enlightened senior monk was delivering the souls of all living beings to the afterlife.
Many ghost fires floated over, and among them, ghost monks with pale faces could be vaguely seen. When these ghost monks heard the Buddhist chants, their expressions changed from ferocious to peaceful.
Thousands of ghost monks walked into the Buddhist radiance. Their ghostly aura faded and soon, their hostility was washed away. With a smile on their faces, they disappeared into the Buddhist radiance.
"It's a scripture of the Buddhist Heavenly Palace, the Scripture of Salvation!"
The Sky Fey Saintess revealed a shocked expression and softly exclaimed, "Could it be that a Buddhist expert has come to enlighten the ghost monks and ghost buddhas who died in vain and send them to the afterlife?"
Yun Peng nodded and said, "To be able to cultivate such a Buddhist radiance and grand Buddha that can purify thousands of ghost monks at once, it must be a senior monk!"
All of a sudden, the ghostly aura thickened by a few hundred times. A giant Ghost Buddha roared and rushed out from the depths of the forest toward the golden Buddha.
"Master, it's been a thousand years. Can't you let it go?"
A clear voice sounded, "This disciple has cultivated the Heavenly Palace. Today, I'm here to purify Master and my senior and junior brothers. Master, please return to the afterlife! "
Jiang Nan looked toward the source of the voice and saw a white-robed monk kneeling at the feet of the golden Buddha, kowtowing deeply in a pious manner.
The ghost Buddha rushed over and reached out to grab the monk's head, but it failed. The ghost Buddha trembled and its hostility was gradually dispelled by the Buddhist radiance. Its expression returned to normal as it walked into the Buddhist radiance and said, "Foolish child, I've let go of my obsession. You should let it go as well."
The white-robed monk said, "This disciple can't let it go! How can this disciple let go of the death of my master, thousands of senior and junior brothers, and the destruction of my sect? "
The ghost Buddha sighed and disappeared into the Buddhist radiance.
"Farewell, Master!"
The white-robed monk suddenly burst into tears and kowtowed again and again.
When the Buddhist radiance and golden Buddha dispersed, the white-robed monk stood up and turned back to look at the thousand fortress ship. Jiang Nan and the others couldn't help but shiver when they saw that the monk had no eyes, ears, mouth, or nose. His face was like a piece of white paper as if it was cut off by a knife.
"How does this guy eat?" Vulture Monster King asked curiously.
