Blood Moon Hunters - Chapter 271
Blood Demon King walked slowly over toward the crater on the ground and patted Changge’s and Wude’s faces. He sounded very serious. “You two asked for this. I was just trying to help.”
“We weren’t disturbing you…” Yu Wude cried out. He found it so unfair.
“That’s right. What did we do wrong?” Zhao Changge looked so wronged.
“You blocked my way to them.”
Blood Demon King didn’t even want to give them a reasonable excuse. The two nearly puked blood out of anger.
He ignored the feelings of the two, looking at the young nun and the monk in front of him. Then he said, “You two will make an interesting Buddhist and Taoist couple.
“Come here and practice with me. Show me what you’ve learned in the last year.”
He summoned a Blood Machete and put it on his shoulder. Then he strode forward.
“Please enlighten me!”
Leng Yueyan and Ning Zhe saluted him with cupped hands. They were giving out astonishing spiritual pressure. Ning Zhe activated his 30 Foot Golden Body Manifestation and rushed over, with Leng Yueyan casting Taoist Spells behind him.
The two had made lots of progress after a year’s cooperation through hardships. Blood Demon King didn’t even have the chance to fight back at first and had to exert more of his power.
The trial lasted for a long time, and the audience was impressed. Leng Yueyan and Ning Zhe were cooperating so closely. They were now half-a-step to the Greater Power Realm.
Their powers were extremely strong. Those ancient Taoist chants were echoing in the mountains. Blood Demon King was just trying to test the two at first, but now he had to take them seriously.
After all, Blood Demon King had reached the Greater Power Realm. He beat the two. The two lost the game, but not in an ugly way. At least they weren’t beaten and lying still on the ground.
“Hah! You’re an interesting couple. That was a great fight! You two are very promising!” Blood Demon King held his machete and said.
“Thanks for guiding us.” Leng Yueyan wiped away the blood at the corner of her mouth and saluted him.
“Thank you for teaching us!” Ning Zhe said, chanting one of the many names of the Buddha.
Blood Demon King shook his hand. “I’m more than happy to do that. You take your time to cultivate. We’ve set some Time Arrays where. One year in this place equals 10 years outside.”
“What?!”
Yueyan and Ning Zhe were shocked. They finally realized why everybody was in a hurry here. They had been in this place for half a month, which meant that five years had passed outside.
“Those people outside this place have missed you for five years during your 15 days’ stay.” Yu Wude climbed up from the ground and smiled.
“That’s right, you should take your time to cultivate. You don’t want to be left behind.” Zhao Changge laughed.
Leng Yueyan nodded. Then she suddenly realized something and asked, “Right, why am I not seeing big brother?”
“He had been busy creating Tao Laws on another mountain. And he has been making efforts since he came back,” Zhang Changge answered, wiping the dust on his face.
“Really? Then I will have to work hard. I’ll feel embarrassed if I am still half-a-step to the Great Power Realm when he comes out of seclusion.” Leng Yueyan giggled.
“Holy cow!”
Yu Wude was so surprised that he almost dropped his jaw. “When… when did you learn how to laugh?”
“Oh gosh!”
Zhao Changge drew in a long breath. He supported his jaw with one hand and looked at Fatty. “Is it me or are the two actually…”
“Yeah, that makes sense.” Yu Wude pretended to be shocked as well.
“Clang!”
The Blood Machete showed up behind them and a cold voice came along with it. “What? Are you still wasting time on gossiping?”
“I love cultivation!”
“It makes me happy!”
Zhao Changge’s and Yu Wude’s hair stood on end when they heard the voice. Other people were all amused by them. They laughed and went back to their own spot to cultivate.
In another place, Wang Bugui, after more than 10 years of cultivation, had finally made some progress. In the dark space that he was in, the still water under his primordial spirit was rippling.
“Man and nature become one, and the Tao follows nature. To be integrated with nature, one has to let go of all his dispositions. Only in that way can the person be exposed to the greatest Tao of the world.
“Break my shackles and go back to nature. Reach the realm where all the creatures and I become one. Heaven… and nature…
“Heaven belongs to nature, and nature gives birth to all creatures. I have to feel it… There it is! The Tao of samsara!”
Wang Bugui finally found his path. He started from the Tao of samsara, which was the closest one to the Tao of nature among all the Tao Laws that he had learned.
The flowers bloom and wither; people live, age, fall ill, and die; the shift of day and night… These are the samsara of nature. It is one of the many Tao Laws of nature.
Those phenomena would last forever as long as he lived in this world. They were irreversible. Wang Bugui started to look for the real meaning of Taoism according to his own understanding of samsara.
He continued to deduce Taoism, and after a few thousand times, he finally had the answer. He could feel that inside his heart, a shackle on his primordial spirit was being broken.
He soon forgot all the restraints of the mortal world. He had left behind all those responsibilities, love and hate, kindness and evil, and even moral standards.
He no longer belonged to the mortal world. He was no longer a man of duty or a quick-tempered young man in the martial world.
He became a purely ordinary man who was eager for the enlightenment of Taoism. He was living for the Tao and nothing could change his mind.
“Tao, the way of samsara. Tao, the way of heaven and earth. Tao, the way of nature. Tao produced One; One produced Two; Two produced Three; Three produced All things.”
Wang Bugui had already emptied his heart. His soul was sitting on the Divine Terrace, merging into the void around. His fingers were constantly moving, calculating all kinds of laws that he had learned.
That included the way of samsara he had learned today. As he accelerated calculating, a powerful thunder flash emerged from him. That was the essence of the Thunder Tao. It was the first time that he had used it.
The thunder of Tao had been existing inside him for a long time. He had even tattooed the talismanic words on his skin.
Those talisman words had shown themselves along with the words of Eight Limits Skills. Later on, the shadow of a dragon appeared behind his body, which were the talisman words of the Dragon Fist.
Heaven and earth started to shake, which caused many creatures to suffer. Gods and demons were roaring in the scene showing up behind him. Within an eyeblink, they faded away, replaced by the battlefield packed with immortals.
In the picture behind him, one man killed millions of opponents. The invincible figure sat on the piled-up corpses and showed his back to the mortal world.
That was the shadow of the two moves he had learned from the Emperor Fist. As he moved his fingers again, the calculation boosted. The projections of the 3,000 worlds emerged from the void around him. Those worlds seemed to be manipulated by his finger.
He manipulated the evolution of a star by simply moving his fingers. The rule of life and the Tao Laws in there were all running in orderly samsara.
Wang Bugui was getting faster and faster. Those visions around him were giving out bright lights under his influence. Evolution has sped up.
“Zoom!”
Three hours later, they burst in dazzling rays, which nearly devoured Wang Bugui. Many Taoist talismans came out it, and so did the chanting of ancient immortals, demons, and people.
Formidable spiritual strength poured out from him. The Divine Terrace became invisible under golden rays. The small primordial spiritual figure seemed to be burning.
“Hmm?”
In the outside world, Zi Yuxiao had already felt the unusual power. She walked toward Wang Bugui, only to see a man covered in light. The light on the Divine Terrace had already formed up a golden pillar.
The pillar stood right up into the sky and shattered the clouds. Its spiritual strength nearly broke one of the corners of the array. Zi Yuxiao had to cast a spell hastily to stabilize the array so that she could keep Wang Bugui under watch.
She had seen all those exotic visions. She could feel that endless power was pouring out of his body, bringing out storms.
The storm swept away almost everything around the place. The sand and rocks were whirling in the air. Trees were pulled out of the soil and snapped.
Fortunately, there are no creatures in the Purple Clouds Continent, otherwise, this would have caused a bloody disaster. Zi Yuxiao was at the center of the storm, trying her best to maintain the Time Array above.
“Ah! Over there, it’s him!” Chu He screamed.
The storm had already caught their attention. They were all looking at the golden pillar breaking into heaven.
“Let’s go and see!”
Blood Demon King slapped his thigh and stood up. He flew fast in the direction of the mountain. Zhao Changge and other people looked at each other and decided to follow him. They cast their own spells and tried to catch up.
When they arrived, they found that the whole mountain was shaking. The storm of spiritual strength was constantly bringing it down.
“Keep the mountain in shape!” Blood Demon King yelled out loud.
He then rushed into the center of the storm and helped Zi Yuxiao keep the array steady. People outside of the mountain were working together to pacify the storm.
“Whiz!”
The storm lasted for half an hour. It was short, but those people felt like it had been quite a few hours. What happened just now was so scary. They wonder what had bought it on.
In confusion, they flew to the secluded site where Wang Bugui was. The golden pillar in the sky still stood.
