Chapter 2226

Lei Guang revealed his true form, rapidly growing in size. "Get on!"

Lin Moyu didn't stand on ceremony and flew onto Lei Guang's back.

Lei Guang transformed into a bolt of lightning and returned to the tribe at maximum speed!

Chapter 2735: Vile Beast, Die!

Buddha light illuminated the world. Six halos circled behind him. The Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha had a solemn appearance, his face filled with compassion.

This operation by the Dongling Empire had also targeted the Buddhist Clan.

However, Lei Guang was unaware of the situation with that unit; everyone had acted separately and hadn't met or coordinated afterward.

The Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha scattered Buddha light, shrouding the entire tribe.

"Convert to my Buddha, and your merit will be boundless!"

Bursts of Buddhist chanting echoed. Within the tribe, a large number of spirit beasts lost focus in their eyes, affected by the sound.

Suddenly, a great sword appeared in the sky, tearing the Buddha light to shreds, and the Buddhist chanting came to an abrupt halt.

Great Sword Dao Venerable flew out from the tribe, looking at the Ancient Buddha with an expressionless face.

The Ancient Buddha was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected that the Thunder Eagle tribe actually harbored a human Dao Venerable 6th Realm.

"Amitabha. I did not expect to find a fellow human Daoist here. May I ask what you are doing here, fellow Daoist?" He recited Buddhist words, his attitude toward Great Sword Dao Venerable still relatively polite.

Unable to gauge the true strength of Great Sword Dao Venerable, he did not act rashly.

Great Sword Dao Venerable ignored him. If it hadn't been for Lin Moyu telling him not to act, he would have likely already drawn his sword against the Ancient Buddha.

As a Revenant, he didn't care about all that; if there was an issue, he would let his sword do the talking.

Seeing that Great Sword Dao Venerable ignored him, a hint of displeasure appeared in the Ancient Buddha's eyes.

He was, after all, a Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha. In terms of cultivation realm, he was no worse than a Dao Venerable 6th Realm. They were equals, yet he was being ignored.

The Ancient Buddha spoke again, "Regardless of what you are doing here, please do not interfere with my affairs."

Great Sword Dao Venerable still ignored him, merely leaving a great sword hovering in the sky, as if it could strike at any moment.

The Ancient Buddha, remaining vigilant, also dared not act lightly.

From another direction, a bolt of lightning streaked over at an astonishing speed.

Before even getting close, Lei Guang had already spotted the Ancient Buddha, a look of disappointment appearing in his eyes. "It's not him."

Lin Moyu was equally puzzled. "If it's not the Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha, then why did he come here?"

"Judging by his words, he clearly came with a purpose. Besides Taiyin Dizang, who else could it be?"

Lin Moyu suddenly thought of a possibility. When annihilating the Buddhist Clan in the Great World, cases of possession had occurred.

This Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha's physical shell was not Taiyin Dizang, but what about the soul?

Lin Moyu said, "Don't be hasty. We'll see when the time comes."

"Pay attention to the fragments in your soul and see if the power of the Curse erupts."

Lei Guang nodded. "Mhm, I've been keeping an eye on it."

The lightning stopped in front of the tribe. Lei Guang stared at the Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha with unfriendly eyes. "Who are you? And what is your relationship with Taiyin Dizang?"

Lei Guang didn't like beating around the bush; he was direct from the start.

The moment the Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha saw Lei Guang, his gaze suddenly sharpened, as if he had seen the prey he had been waiting for for a long time.

Lin Moyu immediately realized that this Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha had come specifically for Lei Guang.

The Ancient Buddha sized up Lei Guang, his sharp eyes filled with satisfaction.

"Amitabha. I did not expect you to have grown to such a realm."

"This is truly wonderful. Today, convert to my Buddha and become my mount."

These words sounded a bit different to Lin Moyu's ears.

Lin Moyu was almost one hundred percent certain that the one before him was the Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha from back then.

Although his appearance didn't match Lei Guang's memory, his words wouldn't lie.

Lei Guang also realized the other party's identity. "So it really is you. I didn't expect you to have managed to escape this time."

"Amitabha!" Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha chanted the Buddha's name. "You really did join the Dongling Empire. Convert to my Buddha, and you can just tell me everything you know."

"As for the slaughter your Dongling Empire has caused this time, you will be the first to pay back a portion of it."

Lei Guang's eyes flashed with lightning. "Convert to you? Go to hell!"

His anger could no longer be contained. Boundless lightning erupted from his body, transforming into a lightning dragon that blasted toward Taiyin Dizang.

Taiyin Dizang's expression changed. The six halos behind him lit up one after another. A giant Buddha appeared within the light, Buddhist chanting blared, and the Buddha pressed a palm down against the lightning dragon.

Boom!

The lightning dragon exploded, the Buddha shattered in response, and Taiyin Dizang was sent flying several thousand meters.

The strength of Lei Guang's power far exceeded Taiyin Dizang's imagination.

Taiyin Dizang was not only not panicked, but appeared even more excited, as if the stronger Lei Guang's power was, the happier he became.

He murmured, "As expected, you are gifted. But your stubborn nature hasn't changed, so I'll give you a lesson!"

The six halos lit up again, and the shattered Buddha reappeared.

The Buddha's entire body emitted a red light. The red radiance, carrying a dark power, swept across the world, turning a thousand miles around a dark, eerie red.

Lei Guang's attack suddenly stopped. In his Soul World, the soul fragment that Lin Moyu had severed was now flashing with red light.

The red light was corroding his soul, and Lei Guang couldn't help but shiver.

If he hadn't removed the Curse, and it had erupted now, the torture his soul would have suffered… just thinking about that pain was terrifying.

Lei Guang glanced at Lin Moyu with gratitude. When he turned back to look at the Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha, he was filled with murderous intent.

He let out a sharp cry, and thunder roared. Countless thunderclouds suddenly appeared in the sky, and bolt after bolt of lightning dragons charged down from the clouds, instantly tearing the Buddha to shreds.

The Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "How are you unharmed?"

Lei Guang offered no explanation. All he wanted to do now was kill the opponent.

Lin Moyu did not intervene from the sidelines. This was Lei Guang's own vendetta, and he had to be the one to avenge it himself.

The lightning dragons surrounded the Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha, the thunder roaring unceasingly. Lei Guang used his full strength, dealing ruthless blows and giving the opponent no chance.

The Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha chanted the Buddha's name. A giant lotus leaf appeared beneath his feet, covered in scriptures, blooming with brilliant light to resist the lightning dragon's attacks.

Lei Guang let out continuous sharp cries. A Great Dao manifested and then merged with him. Lei Guang instantly transformed into lightning, becoming completely ethereal, with no physical form left.

Lei Guang unleashed his Dao True Body, turning solid into void, passing through the lightning dragons to strike at Taiyin Dizang.

Boom!

Illusory lightning exploded from within Taiyin Dizang's body. In an instant, Taiyin Dizang turned into a lightning man.

Taiyin Dizang screamed unceasingly, lightning pouring out like a waterfall from all parts of his body.

This strike from Lei Guang reached directly into his body, making it difficult to defend against.

Taiyin Dizang took out a medicinal pill and threw it into his mouth. Pressing his palms together, he gritted his teeth and muttered, "Beast, I cannot let you live today!"

The pill took effect, and the lightning on his body quickly vanished, his injuries healing by seven or eight parts.

He took out a Demon-Subduing Pestle and pointed it at Lei Guang. "My Buddha is compassionate. If I do not enter hell, who will? Subdue the demons!"

The Demon-Subduing Pestle grew larger with a boom. A full 108 Buddhas appeared in the world, each wielding a pestle, smashing down toward Lei Guang.

"Vile beast, die!"

The Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha shouted sternly, and the 108 Buddhas also shouted in unison.

"Vile beast, die!"

Chapter 2736: If Soft Doesn't Work, Try Hard; Forced Conversion

The Demon-Subduing Pestle erupted with infinite power, forcibly pushing Lei Guang, who was in an ethereal state, back to reality. However, Lei Guang's Dao True Body state was not dispelled by this; he let out a long cry, his power increasing rather than decreasing.

Facing the attacks of the 108 Buddhas, Lei Guang erupted with countless bolts of lightning from his whole body. The lightning lashed out like whips, striking the Demon-Subduing Pestles and producing sounds like metal clashing.

The valley roared and shook, the surrounding great mountains tottering, the entire world appearing as if the apocalypse had arrived.

The battle between two existences at the Dao Venerable 6th Realm produced shockwaves sufficient to kill all existences below the Dao Venerable level.

The four Dao Venerable 1st Realm spirit beasts in the valley used all their strength to protect the valley; otherwise, the casualties in the valley would have been countless.

Lin Moyu said to Great Sword Dao Venerable, "Protect the valley well."

Great Sword Dao Venerable pointed toward the valley. With four bang sounds, four great swords fell from the sky, surrounding the valley like four shields.

The great swords plunged into the earth, blocking all shockwaves, and the valley returned to tranquility.

Seeing this, Lei Guang shouted loudly, "Thank you!"

As he spoke, the terrifying power of lightning surged once more.

With the valley protected, he no longer had any worries and could fight with all his might.

His Dao True Body fully erupted. Countless thunderclouds appeared in the sky, shrouding ten thousand miles of land.

"Lightning Annihilates the World!"

Countless bolts of lightning fell from the thunderclouds, thick and dense, not sparing a single corner.

The earth crumbled, all life was destroyed, and the apocalypse truly descended at this moment.

It wasn't just the destruction visible to the naked eye; a roaring sound rang in Lin Moyu's ears, and he felt as if he had lost connection with the Great Dao.

Within the lightning, the Great Dao was severed, and his own strength was significantly weakened.

Great Sword Dao Venerable held up the sky with one hand, and a great sword appeared. The great sword blocked the lightning, protecting himself and Lin Moyu.

However, it was clear that Great Sword Dao Venerable was not having an easy time; he continuously increased his power to maintain the great sword.

If they were struggling this much, the Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha, who was the target of the secret technique, was even more so.

The 108 Buddhas were submerged in the boundless lightning and shattered with a boom.

Even that Demon-Subduing Pestle did not escape; it was instantly struck by countless bolts of lightning and shattered on the spot.

The Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha's expression was incredibly ugly. He could never have imagined that his Curse would be useless, and even less that Lei Guang's combat power could reach such a level.

He took out a buddhist bead, chanting the Buddha's name. The buddhist beads bloomed with a soft light, wrapping him within it.

The light didn't look bright or powerful, yet it was able to block the lightning bombardment.

The Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha murmured, "I did not expect your strength to reach such a level. Fortunately, I was prepared. You are fated with my Buddha; you cannot escape today!"

He constantly recited Buddhist scriptures, and countless illusory Buddhas appeared within the six halos behind him. For a moment, Buddhist chanting blared.

Behind the Taiyin Dizang Ancient Buddha, a Buddha Kingdom emerged, with countless Buddhas and countless believers chanting scriptures there.

Boundless power was injected into the buddhist beads in his hand. The buddhist beads became brighter and brighter, and a large number of tiny scriptures appeared on them.

The scriptures flew out, converging within the ball of light to form a Golden Body Buddha.

The Golden Body Buddha was solemn in appearance. In the center of its forehead, an eye appeared—a third eye. This eye was very strange; not only was it vertical, but it also had triple pupils, with three eyeballs inside. "Vertical Eye with Triple Pupils."

Lin Moyu looked at this Buddha, feeling as if he had heard of it somewhere. After a moment of thought in his mind, he found the identity of the opponent in the fragments of his memory.

"Three-Pupil Freedom Buddha."

In the Buddhist Clan, there had once appeared a powerful Buddha. It was said that he was born with a third vertical eye.

Later, he cultivated a secret pupil technique of the Buddhist Clan, eventually forming the triple pupils.

Relying on the triple pupils, he was invincible, traveling through the Origin Continent and delving deep into the Boundary Sea, absorbing countless believers for the Buddhist Clan.

Eventually, he broke through the limit of the Nine-Wheel Ancient Buddha and became the legendary Freedom Buddha.

Within the Buddhist Clan, the Nine-Wheel Ancient Buddha was the limit, equivalent to the Dao Venerable 9th Realm of the Human and Demon Clans.

If one could break through further, one could become a Freedom Buddha, meaning no more shackles, finally free.

"It seems these buddhist beads were left behind by the Three-Pupil Freedom Buddha."

Lin Moyu felt vigilant. He held awe for this legendary Buddha.

And seeing Taiyin Dizang so confident, it was clear that this magical treasure was extraordinary.

He transmitted his voice to Lei Guang, "Be careful, this magical treasure is very powerful!"
