Chapter 248: Buddhist Demonic Heart, Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon [Third Update]

Han Jue brought Enlightenment Sword out of the Innate Cave Mansion and arrived before the fusang tree, discovering its branches were shaking violently, and it wasn't just one branch swaying.

Han Jue couldn't help but pinch his fingers to calculate, wanting to figure out who the fusang tree was swaying for.

Very quickly, he saw a hideous dragon head roaring at him, interrupting his calculation.

A dragon? No! It looked like a dragon but wasn't! What exactly was the fusang tree attracting?

Han Jue continued to calculate, but just like before, he was interrupted by the mysterious dragon head.

Forget it! Let them come; we'll deal with them as they arrive! Han Jue shook his head, too lazy to dwell on it.

If an Immortal Emperor attacked, the Heavenly Emperor would surely intervene. As for anyone below the Immortal Emperor, he would kill as many as came!

Han Ba suddenly arrived before Han Jue, bowed respectfully, and said, "Master, I can feel that the fusang tree is very panicked."

"You can sense its emotions?" Han Jue asked in confusion. Although the fusang tree had been growing, it had not yet birthed sentience.

Han Ba nodded. Han Jue smiled and said, "Then find a way to soothe it. Don't worry; no matter who comes, they won't be able to harm the fusang tree."

After saying this, Han Jue turned and left. To the eight Han Family brothers, the fusang tree was equivalent to their mother, as they were only able to be born because of it.

The others began to discuss it again. There had been previous examples where if the fusang tree shook, it would definitely attract enemies. Da and Xiao Er were attracted by the fusang tree, and they had nearly died at Han Jue's hands; just recalling it still made them shudder with fear.

After returning to the Immortal Cave, Han Jue continued Cultivating the Heavenly Cycle Body Tempering Technique.

…

Several years later, Han Jue reached two thousand five hundred years of age. This counted as a milestone birthday, so he decided to celebrate a little and took out the book of misfortune.

The fusang tree was not shaking as violently as before, but it still swayed from time to time. Han Jue cursed while checking for strong cultivators near the Reroll World. He was stunned to discover that Martial Virtue Divine Lord had left at some point. Other than that, no enemies had infiltrated the Reroll World for the time being.

After Han Jue finished cursing all his enemies, he continued Cultivating.

On the other side, inside a temple, White-Robed Buddha was meditating and chanting. His expression shifted unpredictably, at times pained, at times joyful, and at times hideous.

After a long while, he suddenly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air. He furrowed his brows, gritted his teeth, and cursed, "Dammit! This Demonic Heart simply cannot be dispelled!"

"Could it be that the Buddha Ancestor is starting to suspect me again?" White-Robed Buddha felt anxious and uneasy. He adjusted his emotions and continued Cultivating. He did not notice a mass of invisible black Qi descending from the sky and drilling into the top of his head.

…

In the blink of an eye, another fifty years passed. With the help of the Heavenly Cycle Body Tempering Technique, Han Jue's Physical Body was constantly growing stronger at a crazy rate, and his magic power was surging.

In the Simulation Trial, Han Jue fought for an hour and finally killed Jiang Yi. He was incredibly excited. Jiang Yi was an Immortal Emperor! Next time he saw Jiang Yi, he wouldn't have to be so nervous.

Han Jue thought with satisfaction. He was now immensely looking forward to entering the Emperor Realm. He could kill an Immortal Emperor before even becoming one himself; how fierce would he be once he stepped into the Emperor Realm? Even Han Jue himself found it terrifying!

Han Jue habitually checked the Reroll World and suddenly saw a piece of information: [Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon: cultivation unknown, from Chaos]

cultivation unknown? Immortal Emperor! Han Jue was startled and hurriedly used the Simulation Trial to battle it. A second later, he opened his eyes with a strange expression. This Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon was actually in a remnant Soul state. It couldn't even withstand a single strike from him!

What was going on? It dared to trespass into the Reroll World with just this? Han Jue immediately checked its location and discovered that the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon was actually on White-Robed Buddha!

White-Robed Buddha was in secluded cultivation, but his complexion was dark, and his brows were suffused with an aura of Evil Qi. His state was wrong! Was he about to be subjected to Possession?

Han Jue immediately stood up, teleported to the front of White-Robed Buddha's temple, broke through the Restriction within the temple, and arrived before White-Robed Buddha. He raised his hand and directly unleashed Six Paths Soul Absorption, wanting to suck out the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon.

"What are you trying to do!" A voice followed, filled with terror. Han Jue ignored it and forcibly sucked the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon out.

A mass of black Qi flew out of White-Robed Buddha's Physical Body, then transformed into black mist, exploding outwards and permeating the temple. Han Jue clearly felt a terrifying murderous intent enveloping him. He stamped his right foot and unleashed Reincarnation Sword Intent, dispersing this murderous intent.

Han Jue unleashed Six Paths Soul Absorption again, sucking it into the depths of his own Primordial Spirit. The countless stars of the Star Primordial Body erupted with terrifying magic power, transforming into chains that locked the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon in place.

"Who exactly are you?" "What are you trying to do!" "Let me go!" Han Jue ignored the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon's roars and cast his gaze toward White-Robed Buddha.

Black Qi dissipated, White-Robed Buddha revealed his form, and his complexion began to recover. White-Robed Buddha slowly opened his eyes, and upon seeing Han Jue, he was immediately startled. He asked cautiously: "Fellow Daoist, what is the matter?"

Han Jue stared at him and asked, "Do you know the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon?" White-Robed Buddha shook his head. Immediately, he suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed drastically.

"What did you just see?" White-Robed Buddha asked nervously. Han Jue said expressionlessly, "If I hadn't come, you probably would have been subjected to Possession."

Upon hearing this, White-Robed Buddha broke out in a cold sweat, feeling more terrified the more he thought about it. "If you don't want to say it, forget it." Han Jue dropped these words and turned around, preparing to leave.

White-Robed Buddha hurriedly called out, "Wait! I'll talk!" Han Jue was able to save him, so naturally, he wouldn't harm him. Furthermore, with their Luck now connected, White-Robed Buddha felt there was no need to hide anything; perhaps he could even obtain Han Jue's assistance.

"I do not know the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon, but the Buddhist sect has a tradition of the Demonic Heart, which every Disciple must nurture. This is a method for the Buddhist sect to prevent Disciples from betraying them. The Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon you mentioned might be the Demonic Heart bestowed upon me by the Heavenly Dao Buddha Ancestor." White-Robed Buddha sighed.

Han Jue was even more surprised. The Buddhist sect nurtures Demonic Hearts? What kind of tactic is this?

White-Robed Buddha continued, "I am also unclear about the origin of the Demonic Heart. Every Disciple has a different Demonic Heart, and as one's cultivation improves, the Demonic Heart also grows stronger. Powerful Buddhas can even use the Demonic Heart as a combat tool. However, you know my background; I am very repulsed by the Demonic Heart." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

Han Jue said, "Your Demonic Heart has already been taken by me." White-Robed Buddha was stunned, then hurriedly checked his body. He was immediately pleasantly surprised! It was really gone! How is that possible! The Demonic Heart is very difficult to remove!

Han Jue turned and left. White-Robed Buddha gritted his teeth, suddenly knelt behind Han Jue, kowtowed heavily, and said, "Thank you, Senior, for your help! I owe you my life!" Removing the Demonic Heart was equivalent to a grace of rebirth!

[White-Robed Buddha's favorability towards you has increased; current favorability is 5 stars]

Han Jue waved his hand without turning back and quickly disappeared. He swiftly returned to the Innate Cave Mansion. He sat on the bed and began to examine the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon imprisoned in the depths of his Soul.

"Tell me your origin." Han Jue's voice rang out, startling the Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon. The Hun Yuan Heavenly Demon resembled a ghost, pitch black all over, making it difficult to discern its true appearance.

The update was late, this counts as yesterday's third update! Wishing everyone finds true love soon!
