Chapter 1610
1610 A Vivid Carnage, Shi Ying’s Condition, The Great Thunder Temple
“D-Demon!”
The monk in the Euphoria Pure Land slumped on the ground and looked at Chu Kuangren as if he was the greatest horror in the universe!
Chu Kuangren was stunned too.
What had he done to scare a person to such an extent?
!!
Many scenes flashed in the monk’s mind when he looked at Chu Kuangren. Those were the terrifying memories buried deep in his mind that he did not wish to recall!
It was a man in white, holding an ancient sword and a long halberd while murdering and destroying Buddhas all the way.
My goodness!
He could not believe that such a terrifying demon existed in the universe. Even the most horrifying and evil demon recorded in the Buddhist Scriptures was inferior to Chu Kuangren!
Countless Arhats and Bodhisattvas fell under his feet.
The blood stained the mountains, rivers, and earth, while the heaven wept blood, and myriad Buddhas wailed!
However, none of those could stop the demon’s pace, end the killing sound and the sword rays…
Countless scenes replayed in the monk’s mind, causing him extremely terrified. He slumped on the ground in a cold sweat and was motionless.
Soon after, someone led the crowd and dashed out after hearing the monk mention the word ‘demon’.
“Where is the evil demon?!”
“Let’s send him to hell!”
The crowd was furious, but their pupils widened in shock upon seeing Chu Kuangren.
Immediately afterward, they sat on the ground in panic, just like the monk.
“I-It’s him.”
“Why is the demon here again?”
Chu Kuangren shook his head helplessly, and he had already guessed something.
Those people should be the surviving monks that came to stop him from going to the Holy Dragon Pure Land.
“Amitabha.”
At that moment, a mantra sounded, and an abundance of Buddhist Lights flowed past those monks.
Soon, their pupils gradually dilated, and they fainted one by one.
“Brother Chu, please come in.”
It was Buddha Yun Lan with a pure, holy, and ethereal voice.
Without hesitation, Chu Kuangren’s figure flashed into the Euphoria Pure Land and arrived at the Mahavira Hall.
Buddha Yun Lan sat on the highest lotus altar with various Bodhisattvas on both sides.
At that moment, those Bodhisattvas looked at Chu Kuangren with extremely complicated gazes. Some of them looked at him with gratitude, while some looked at him with fear.
All in all, they could not have peace of mind upon seeing Chu Kuangren’s arrival.
Chu Kuangren was not surprised either.
He could still vividly remember the carnage, let alone those monks.
“Brother Chu, although the influence of the Buddha Destroyer Bell has been eliminated, the experience of that time has become their nightmares. It may be difficult for them to forget in a short period, so please don’t be offended,” said Buddha Yun Lan.
“It’s okay. It’s not my first time being called a demon anyway,” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
Buddha Yun Lan pressed her palms together and apologized to Chu Kuangren again. Then, she asked, “I haven’t heard from you since you entered the Blood Ocean two years ago. How did you manage to come back?”
“It’s a long story.”
Chu Kuangren did not speak much. Instead, he just asked, “I’m just stopping by to pay a visit, and I’m curious. How was the battle with Sin Buddha two years ago?”
“I heard that…”
Buddha Yun Lan briefly told Chu Kuangren what happened.
Buddha Yun Lan and Buddha Jian Xing joined forces to fight against Sin Buddha for two years.
Later, Sin Buddha left the Far West Land after the Blood Ocean failed to descend. He was said to have shown up in the Demon Kingdom and created a force called the Blood Killing Sect.
Many responded to Sin Buddha, the Embodier’s invitation, and the Blood Killing Sect soon grew to be a significant force in the Immortal World.
“I see.”
Chu Kuangren nodded before mobilizing his thought. “I wonder how is Shi Ying doing now.”
He was curious as he did not notice Shi Ying after chatting with Buddha Yun Lan for quite some time.
After all, they used to fight in battles together. Even if their relationship faded, she should not be avoiding him.
“Well…” Buddha Yun Lan sighed upon hearing Chu Kuangren mention Shi Ying. “Brother Chu, come with me.”
Chu Kuangren furrowed his brows and could tell that something was off.
Buddha Yun Lan led Chu Kuangren to a golden lotus pool in the Euphoria Pure Land.
There was a golden Buddhist lotus in the lotus pond, and a woman in white was seen lying quietly on the lotus altar with a faint aura.
The lady was Shi Ying!
“What’s going on?” Chu Kuangren asked with a frown, and at the same time, he got Lil Ai to start analyzing Shi Ying’s current condition.
“Two years ago, Sin Buddha emerged, and I couldn’t hold him back alone. Only Buddha Jian Xing could compete with him. Unfortunately, he was guarding the Spiritual Mountain and suppressing the Dao contamination qi, so it was difficult for him to make a move. In order to allow Buddha Jian Xing to attack Sin Buddha, Shi Ying sacrificed her life essence to temporarily suppress the Spiritual Mountain’s Dao contamination qi on behalf of Buddha Jian Xing…”
Buddha Yun Lan told Chu Kuangren everything that had happened.
Shi Ying’s sacrifice allowed Buddha Jian Xing to attack and resist Sin Buddha, and that was why Chu Kuangren could prevent the merging of two realms in the Blood Ocean.
Unfortunately, it almost killed Shi Ying.
“Although Buddha Jian Xing managed to return to the Spiritual Mountain in time, Shi Ying’s life essence was almost burned out. Moreover, her soul was very exhausted, and she almost died. Only in this lotus pond can she survive.”
Lil Ai’s analysis was soon completed.
It was tricky indeed. Since Chu Kuangren possessed the Indestructible Physique and did not need the Undying Elixir, he could recover Shi Ying’s physical body. The Undying Elixir could revive human flesh and bones, and its effect was powerful.
However, the most critical thing was Shi Ying’s soul, which was very exhausted and on the verge of shattering. Once it left the physical body, it would completely dissipate, which meant Shi Ying’s soul would turn into dust!
As the Underworld Ghost Emperor, Chu Kuangren realized that such a soul injury was extremely tricky because it was fragile.
Shi Ying was so fragile now that she could shatter with a touch.
Shortly after, Chu Kuangren put up a sword hand sign to form a sliver of Yin qi at his fingertips. Then, he released it into the lotus pond, and it penetrated Shi Ying’s body.
Following that, Chu Kuangren took out the Undying Elixir. As his Immortal’s Core surged, the Undying Elixir turned into a medicinal powder that filled the sky, and it was sprinkled on top of Shi Ying.
With the Undying Elixir’s help, Shi Ying’s physical body, which was about to shatter, was recovering. Even Buddha Yun Lan was amazed when she saw the scene.
“This is the West Ruler Matriarch’s Undying Elixir. Its effect is indeed extraordinary.”
“Even though its effect is extraordinary, I still can’t save her. I have temporarily protected her soul from dissipating with the Ghost Emperor’s authority, but I still need to find another way to wake her up,” said Chu Kuangren.
“Thank you, Ghost Emperor,” Buddha Yun Lan said gratefully with her palms pressed together.
“I’ll do my best to save my junior.”
“Heh. Jing Hui once told me the fate between Shi Ying and you, Brother Chu.”
“Is she in the Pure Land?”
“No, she is not. She has been everywhere recently because of Shi Ying’s injury. I wonder if she has managed to find a way.” Buddha Yun Lan sighed.
“She really is loyal to her friend.”
Chu Kuangren recalled how much Jing Hui went through to help Shang Honghua in the past.
After seeing Shi Ying, Chu Kuangre stayed in the Euphoria Pure Land for a few more days to discuss with Buddha Yun Lan the methods of rescuing Shi Ying. They finalized several plans, but none of them worked.
Moreover, on top of Shi Ying’s matter, Buddha Yun Lan seemed to be bothered by other matters.
After inquiring, Chu Kuangren found out that a Buddhist world force emerged in the Euphoria Pure Land after the Buddha Destroyer catastrophe. That force attracted many worshippers and caused a huge impact on the Five Ways Pure Land.
The Buddhist World force was called the… Great Thunder Temple!
