Chapter 703: Chapter 259: Inner Five Elements Cultivation System
Both being existences of the Great Brightness Realm, Hong Jing and Hong Le were both a notch more powerful than him.
Especially Hong Jing, who had reincarnated four times, accumulating a vast amount of Fortune and Merit, and was also highly proficient in the various techniques from the Secret Treasury of Jianan Temple.
Hong Ye knew he was no match for the two, so he immediately threatened them with the self-destruction of his Pure Land.
Who would have thought that Hong Jing would directly use the secret skill "Mahayana Sutra"?
The ancient chanting sound traversed the space between both sides and Hong Ye’s physical body, directly resonating in his Sea of Consciousness.
In an instant, Hong Ye’s Divine Spirit swayed unsteadily as if intoxicated, gradually sinking on the Spirit Platform in his Sea of Consciousness.
At this moment, Hong Le also realized the opportunity had come, immediately transforming into a stream of light, holding a wisp of pale golden flame, flying towards the Nine-leaf Bodhi beside Hong Ye!
As he got closer to the Nine-leaf Bodhi, Hong Le immediately waved his hand, unleashing the "Universal Dharma Flame" from his palm, intending to directly incinerate this demonic entity.
"The World Honored One’s decree forbids anyone from harming the Nine-leaf Bodhi!"
Just as the "Universal Dharma Flame" was about to crash into the Nine-leaf Bodhi, a figure, emanating a faint black Qi with crimson eyes, suddenly shouted and pounced forward!
Bang!
The Void Observation Middle Stage practitioner crashed fiercely into the "Universal Dharma Flame" with his body!
The terrifying flame immediately ignited him!
"Uncle Master, save me!"
"Uncle Master!"
The burning of the "Universal Dharma Flame" awakened the Void Observation Middle Stage practitioner who was tainted by Demonic Qi, causing him to scream in agony and frantically pat at the golden flames on his body.
But the terror of the "Universal Dharma Flame" was beyond his wildest imagination.
After a few frantic pats, his flesh was burned away by the pale golden flame, and then his entire skeleton was instantly reduced to ashes, scattered into the air by the wind.
"Fool!"
Seeing his hard-concentrated "Universal Dharma Flame" blocked by the practitioner’s body and failing to destroy the Nine-leaf Bodhi, Hong Le was almost infuriated to the point of vomiting blood!
After a furious curse, Hong Le hurriedly urged his magical power again, intending to re-condense the golden flame.
But it was clearly too late now.
Hong Ye himself was a practitioner of the Great Brightness Realm, and the Mahayana Sutra couldn’t restrain his Heart Spirit for too long.
Plus, now that he was invaded by Demonic Qi and his Heart Demon had been triggered, the Mahayana Sutra had an even weaker effect on him.
Boom!
A terrifying power mixed with black and purple colors suddenly burst from Hong Ye’s body, instantly dispelling the effects of the Mahayana Sutra!
At this moment, Hong Ye’s eyes had turned completely crimson red, surrounded by Demonic Qi, his aura intense.
"You’re courting death!"
As the eerie and somber voice echoed, his figure charged towards Hong Le in front of the Nine-leaf Bodhi, a fist glowing blue-black smashing towards Hong Le’s body.
"Not good, he’s fallen into a demon!"
Seeing this drastic change in Hong Ye, Hong Jing’s face turned pale, as he immediately approached to aid Hong Le in restraining him.
On Hong Le’s side, seeing the terrifying blue-black fist lunging, he wasn’t willing to be outdone, immediately forming a Finger Technique, communicating the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with his magical power, forming a tangible Golden Bell around him!
Clang!
The blue-black fist struck the Golden Bell, and the energy it stirred formed a visible ripple spreading outward!
The zen temple’s pagodas and other structures in its path crumbled like paper, instantly reduced to debris by the ripples of energy.
Just as Hong Le was about to retaliate, Hong Ye charged with surging Demonic Qi!
Clang!
Clang!
...
Buddhist practitioners are dual cultivators of body and spirit, and most are strong in Body Skill.
Now fallen into a demon, Hong Ye resembled a maniac, recklessly launching a barrage of attacks on Hong Le’s Protective Golden Bell after closing in.
The energy ripples stirred spread wave after wave, wreaking havoc on the ancient Zen temples and other structures, destroying them one by one.
Some Jianan Temple disciples watching from afar, unable to evade in time, were instantly caught and torn apart, meeting gruesome ends on the spot.
"Junior Brother Hong Le, we must find a way to lure him out of the Grand Array!"
Seeing that if the battle continued, the entire Jianan Temple would be leveled by the two, Hong Jing’s expression turned grim as he spoke sternly.
If nothing unexpected happens, he would be the next abbot of Jianan Temple.
With Hong Ye now rampaging and destroying everything, it would ultimately become the problem of this abbot candidate.
Hong Le also knew this couldn’t continue.
He immediately endured Hong Ye’s frenzied assaults, swiftly flying outside the Unmoving King Array.
In the void outside the array, Shen Wen’an quietly observed everything, looking peculiar, muttering under his breath:
"Father’s deduction was really accurate."
"This variable came at just the right time."
Watching as Hong Le and Hong Ye fought out of the Grand Array, unleashing a terrifying battle in the void above, Hong Jing followed suit, joining the fray against Hong Ye.
Shen Wen’an glanced at the Zen temple below, then looked at the warring sides, a stroke of inspiration suddenly flashing across his mind.
He didn’t rush to infiltrate Jianan Temple to find Shen Chongxu, but instead concealed his presence, manipulating the cloud he was hiding in, gradually approaching the three fighting.
Hong Ye had already turned into a demon, his power greatly enhanced.
Yet Hong Jing and Hong Le were originally stronger than him, and now teaming up, even the demonized Hong Ye was being steadily pushed back.
At this rate, restraining him would only be a matter of time.
However, the spectating Shen Wen’an didn’t want this battle to end quickly.
