The one-armed man didn't turn around. He was still looking at the surface of the ocean in Silence.
A few cavalrymen of the Church looked at the surface of the ocean stealthily, thinking of the recent rumors and the actual order of forbidding the sea; a terrified expression showed on their faces.
Where was the sea on the ocean?
The one-armed man seemed to be able to hear the thoughts in the minds of these cavalrymen of the Church, as he said, "The sea has gone down."
The cavalrymen of the Church didn't understand what he meant. A leader said again, "The Pope requests the Master Swordsman to return to the Church as soon as possible."
The one-armed man said lightly, "That swindler is going to talk about the heavenly punishment again? He just wants to occupy more territory; there's no need to make it so complicated. "
Hearing this, the leader of the cavalrymen was taken aback a bit, but soon became angry. He stood up and yelled, "Even though you are the Master Swordsman, you can't be so rude to the Pope!"
"Do you know my name?" asked the one-armed man.
The cavalrymen of the Church eyed each other speechlessly. All they knew was that the Master Swordsman had suddenly appeared in the Church City over one hundred years ago, but they had no idea about his background.
"My name is Jian Xilai."
The sunlight shone on the one-armed man's face, which was devoid of any expression, looking like a carved statue.
"I thought they would shout out my name when they saw me when Aoyama was destroyed; but I didn't expect that I would return from the south."
He was the former Godly Swordsman of West Ocean in Chaotian, and now he was the Master Swordsman of this land. His name had changed over one hundred years ago.
He was to return to Chaotian that day, so he had to change his name back.
"Master, what are you going to do?"
The leader of the cavalrymen felt uneasy, saying, "The Church has provided for you for over one hundred years. Are you going to flee now that the war is about to break out?"
The Godly Swordsman of West Ocean didn't heed him, walking toward the surface of the ocean.
The leader of the cavalrymen looked at a priest in the group and gestured with his hands.
Crack!!!
A few flashes of lightning struck down from the blue sky like sword lights, hitting the priest and the leader of the cavalrymen precisely.
Blood splashed onto the beach like water, but the two of them could no longer be found. Whether it was the knight leader's Sword of Courage that had been blessed or the Holy Artifact that the priest had secretly carried … they had all turned into green smoke.
The pale-faced knights of the Vatican knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the man who had walked to the surface of the sea. They did not dare to do anything else.
Jian Xilai flew to the surface of the ocean and looked at the deep and dark tunnel at the bottom of the ocean, murmuring to himself, "I wonder if I can make it in time."
As soon as he finished speaking, several sword lights floated out from his sleeves and moved forward at lightning speed.
He disappeared from the sea.
…
…
The sea was full of water.
Although a great deal of seawater had fallen from the Great Whirlpool into the Underworld, the sea level of the East Sea had not dropped, and was even as calm as ever, if not for the ripples caused by the Great Ancestor of the Mysterious Dark Sect breaking out of the sea.
Many powerful warriors of the Guocheng Temple and the Shui Yue Nunnery couldn't withstand the double countercharge caused by the destruction of the restrictive spells and the peerless demonic art. They vomited blood and fell to the ground, dead.
The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect emitted countless streams of gloomy energy, freezing the frost-covered weeds into pieces and burning them into nothingness.
As the weeds were all gone, Tong Yan had no place to hide. He coughed incessantly, causing the cliff wall behind him to quiver incessantly. The broken rocks fell down incessantly along with the rustling sounds.
A moment ago, he had killed the Chief Monk of the Instruction Hall of the Guocheng Temple by means of the peerless demonic art of the Great Ancestor of the Mysterious Dark Sect, but he himself had been wounded severely.
"What's the point of doing so much?"
The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect said this while laughing. He waved his right hand slightly, and a streak of demonic energy entered the Heavenly Well through the ground.
The ground quaked uneasily, and the stone carvings on the cliff walls faded away again. The seawater was rolling up and down, producing white foam.
The Thirty-Three Levels of Heaven had been destroyed, and the Heavenly Well was broken through. A band of green smoke rose up from the bottom of the cliff, growing thicker and thicker at a visible rate.
The green smoke occupied the mountains and fields around the Heavenly Well at a high speed, and then spread in all directions.
The wild rabbits that were trying to survive in the weeds and forests, and the voles that were trying their best to burrow underground, fell down as soon as they touched the green smoke. They twitched painfully for a while and then died.
Innumerable fish also died in the green smoke. They were carried to the surface of the sea by the undercurrents, forming a mass of silvery light. It looked beautiful, but it was actually quite horrifying.
The people of the Guocheng Temple and the Shui Yue Nunnery who were still alive looked at the green smoke with despair on their faces.
The green smoke had brushed past their bodies with the wind, and they didn't suffer any harm. However, if the green smoke went to the official roads or the villages … what would happen to the mortals?
It would be the real doomsday!
An old monk of the Guocheng Temple stood up shakily, trying to stop the green smoke for a moment at the cost of his life.
"Like I said, what's the point?"
The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect said expressionlessly while looking at the old monk, "The Heavenly Well has been opened, and the green smoke has entered the human world. Who can stop it?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the sky responded.
It was an extremely loud and clear clap of thunder.
A hole appeared in the sky.
A large Buddha landed in the Empty Realm.
It was an impartial Buddha.
The Buddha happened to land on the Heavenly Well.
The green smoke coming from the Underworld to the human world was blocked by his body.
Looking at the green smoke covering the mountains and fields and the dead people and living creatures, the Buddha took a deep breath with a compassionate expression on his face.
The strong wind blew the green smoke in front of him, and the Buddha inhaled it into his stomach.
The belly of the Buddha bulged a bit more.
(Thinking of the Vermilion Bird Story?)
…
…
The large Buddha blocked the Heavenly Well tightly, but there was always a crack between the Buddha and the cliff wall, from which the faint green smoke came out. His mottled face was half-hidden in the smoke, like a Buddha statue whose paint had been peeled off, giving off an awe-inspiring feeling.
Looking at the large Buddha, the Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect asked, "Which temple are you from? I've listened to the scriptures in the Guocheng Temple for many years, but I've never seen you before. "
"I'm from a small temple in White Town," said the large Buddha.
The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect folded his hands behind his back and sighed like an old farmer. "Does the Broadsword King Cao Yuan look like this?" he asked.
"What do I look like?" Cao Yuan asked confusedly.
The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect remarked with a complicated emotion, "How could you be so fat?"
The Broadsword King was the most respected swordsman in Chaotian.
Both the mortals and the swordsmen in the Cultivation circle had many imaginations about him.
If they knew that he looked like such a fat Buddha, they would be disappointed.
Cao Yuan felt helpless as well, saying, "I've eaten the quota from the Imperial court and the offerings from the Windy-Broadsword Church, not to mention the offerings from the temple … How could I not be fat?"
The Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect exclaimed resentfully, "You're the Broadsword King Cao Yuan! Why can't you control your mouth? Would it kill you to eat less? "
Cao Yuan sighed, "If you don't eat more and grow fatter and bigger, you won't be able to fight against her … You have no idea how strong the Queen is."
Hearing this, the Great Grandmaster of the Mysterious Dark Sect said with a slightly solemn expression, "That's why. I admire you."
