Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the sky, Lin Yan wasn’t injured. The chains didn’t seem to be physical at all.
However, there was a strange power that pierced through the chains and nailed half of his body tightly, preventing him from moving.
The Azure Dragon and the Wind and Thunder kept attacking the chain, but they had no effect on it. It could not even touch it.
“This chain seems to exist in another spatial dimension…”
Screech!
The Azure Dragon disappeared and the Vermillion Bird was born!
The Southern Primordial Fire transformed into nine colors and landed on the chain, but it still could not cause any damage. Only the highest temperature, the Sun Burning True Flame, made the chain tremble slightly.
However, that was all he could do.
What exactly was this chain?
As if sensing Lin Yan struggling with all his might, suddenly, the void was filled with golden light again. Another chain passed through Lin Yan’s lower left abdomen, then another, and another!
Five consecutive golden chains pierced through Lin Yan’s chest, emitting a strange power that made him unable to move at all.
Lin Yan’s expression darkened. “Wang Yue!”
On the other side of the island, Liu Lanqing, Ling Shuangxue, and the others were shocked. Frost and flames attacked, and the golden world instantly turned into a domain of flames and ice.
However, in the next moment, an extremely dull bronze bell sound suddenly exploded. Endless Buddhist voices resounded in the ground!
Ong, Ma, Ni, Ba, Mi and Mou!
A ring-shaped golden light spread out, as if it had squeezed and exploded the air in the entire underground world. It swept past Liu Lanqing, Ling Shuangxue, and the others.
The frost and flames froze in midair before slowly dissipating. Looking at the few of them, they had completely fainted.
“Wang Yue, what exactly do you want to do?!”
In the sky, golden light gathered and transformed into the phantom of Wang Yue, sitting cross-legged in the void.
He stretched out his hand and pointed gently. The golden liquid patterns on the surface of the jade pillar in the center suddenly began to flow upwards.
But soon, Lin Yan could tell that it wasn’t the patterns flowing on the surface, but the entire jade pillar seemed to be melting and shrinking!
It was like a molten iron rod. As golden light fragments splashed out, it melted into a pool of golden liquid that overflowed with divine light. Even the Buddha Corpse Island below was melted and turned into a small golden pond.
Above, the jade flower bud also fell to the ground and landed in the golden pond.
However, in the next moment, it seemed to have come to life. Its surface was covered in golden patterns, and a golden root below quickly grew and rose crazily. In a short moment, it had already touched the entire jade flower bud above the rock wall dome!
However, when the jade statue collided with the rock wall, there was no obvious collision. The jade lotus was like a fish in the sea and a bird in the forest. It easily pierced through the rock layer and extended deeply.
The golden liquid drop below also pulled upwards and filled the rock wall, completely filling the hole that the jade statue had drilled.
There was not a single drop of the golden liquid below, and it had completely turned into golden roots and stems. As the jade flower bud completely entered the rock layer above and was completely blocked, the old monk, Wang Yue, put down his finger and heaved a long sigh of relief.
He turned to look at Lin Yan, his eyes filled with shame. “Young friend, I’m sorry. I lied to you.”
“What exactly are you doing? What exactly is in that jade lotus?”
Lin Yan had already sealed it in midair for a long time, watching the old monk do something inexplicable.
Wang Yue sighed faintly. “Young friend, please forgive me. The Holy Buddha is really powerful. The time consumed by the Heavenly Eight Dragons Array is two to three hundred years longer than the emperor expected. As a result, my body is completely dead and cannot be woken up…
“I had no choice but to borrow your physical body to fight the Buddhas!”
“To fight the Buddhas? You’re the one who wants to become a Buddha?!”
Wang Yue said sadly, “If 1 had a choice, I really hope that I would be the one to become a Buddha… Unfortunately, my aptitude is insufficient and 1 can’t withstand the magnificent power of the Buddha at all. 1 can only let a pitiful baby bear the pain of hundreds of years of transformation…”
“Baby?” Lin Yan thought of the jade lotus that had burrowed into the ceiling.
“In the jade lotus was a baby? That’s Buddha?
“Didn’t you say that only when a True Buddha appears will he have the strength to resist the Buddha in the Chaotic Fog?
“You sent the True Buddha away? How can you resist the Buddhas?”
Wang Yue sighed and said, “Young friend, I’ve never lied to you, but I hid something from you…
“For example, the True Buddha isn’t a monster like the Buddhas you’ve seen, but someone who can bear the divine power of Buddha. He’s a real person!
“An adult’s body is fixed and can’t be modified. Only a newborn baby’s innate spirit hasn’t been extinguished. It can digest and absorb the divine power of the Buddha and slowly transform. When it grows up in the future, it can become a natural Holy Buddha of the human race!
“The baby is weak, so the force has to be injected carefully and slowly. That’s why it takes so long…”
Lin Yan’s expression changed slightly. “So the Buddha you created is actually just a small baby? He doesn’t have any combat strength at all, so you sent him away! What about me? Why did you lock me here?!”
“Stealing the power of a god will result in the destruction of gods. The True Buddha is still weak and can’t resist them. Therefore, in order to deal with the destruction of gods, and to block the perception of gods and make them think that the True Buddha is dead, which will buy time for the True Buddha to grow, there must be… another Buddha, a fake Buddha!”
Wang Yue raised his hand and pointed gently. The 360 resplendent jade pillars trembled..
