The fall of gods and Buddhas (Part 3)

Zhuge Xiang's Demon Body had reached a height of Hundred Zhang, like a small mountain. However, compared to Liao Wufa and the others' bodies, which were Hundred Zhang feet tall, it seemed rather small. As for the Undying Great Roc, which was thousands of miles long, it was even less comparable.

"What? Comparing heights?" Looking at Zhuge Xiang and his companions, each revealing their Demonic True Body, Innate Dao Body, and Bodhi Dharma Body, the Blood-haired Man's lips curled into an arrogant and Zhang Kuang smile.

As he spoke, his body also swelled up. His appearance remained unchanged, but his body grew to a height of Thousand Zhang, much larger than Liao Wufa and the others.

"Indeed very strong, but with the four of us joining forces, even gods and Buddhas from the Immortal Realm would perish here today..." Seeing the Blood-haired Man's body reach Thousand Zhang, Liao Wufa's expression remained unchanged, and he confidently said, "Now that things have come to this, what other tricks are you all holding back? Go all out!"

"Alright! Watch me Sha Po Lang!" Bai Qi emphatically, and faintly, one could almost hear the shouts of countless soldiers.

God of Slaughter Bai Qi and also the God of War, was covered in a layer of deep black armor, making him look like a general going into battle. With a flick of his Spear, he transformed into a streak of light and charged toward the Blood-haired Man with unstoppable momentum.

"Buddha's Palm Realm Your Hand!" The Golden Body Bodhisattva raised his palm, looking down and pressing down fiercely. The enormous palm was like a giant curtain covering the sky, and even the Blood-haired Man with a body Thousand Zhang tall was covered by his palm.

The Buddha's Palm Realm is Secret Technique Buddhist Sect technique, only achievable by true Bodhisattva Buddha. "One leaf, one Bodhi"—this is the meaning of the Buddha's Palm Realm. Within the palm of one's hand lies a Buddha world. Within the palm, nothing can escape.

Legend has it that in Primordial Era times, there was an incredibly powerful demon monkey with astonishing strength. He stormed the Immortal Realm and wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, and none of the gods and immortals could subdue him. Finally, the Buddha Tathagata tricked the demon monkey into his palm by betting on the Buddha's Palm Realm. The Buddha's Palm Realm was so powerful that the demon monkey could not escape from the Buddha's palm, thus allowing him to be suppressed.

Although it is unknown whether this rumor is true or not, it is clear from this that the power of the Buddha's Palm Realm move is evident.

Taking a deep breath, Liao Wufa held the Sky-Slaying Sword high, unleashing a sharp and violent Sword Qi that slashed towards the Blood-haired Man. This Sword Qi seemed capable of tearing through even the Void, a destructive strike that appeared to possess the power to annihilate Myriad Phenomena.

"The Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering!" Zhuge Xiang naturally showed no mercy. Although his body was only Hundred Zhang, the Sea Calming Divine Needle in his hand transformed into Thousand Zhang, like a giant Sky-Supporting Pillar, and smashed towards the Blood-haired Man. Its attack power of 800,000 was not even weaker than Liao Wufa's Heaven-Slaying Sword.

"Unparalleled defense! He Shi Bi!" Just as the attacks of Zhuge Xiang and the other three were about to land on the Blood-haired Man, suddenly, the Blood-haired Man reached out and made a move.

A crack appeared in the Void, and a flawless white jade disc landed in the Blood-haired Man's palm. He used this flawless white jade disc to block all attacks.

The Sword Qi of the Heaven-Slaying Sword, upon landing on the He Shi Bi, vanished as if it were a mud ox sinking into the sea. Then, the He Shi Bi flashed, absorbing the spear light of the God of Slaughter Bai Qi's Sha Po Lang. Simultaneously, the He Shi Bi also absorbed Zhuge Xiang's Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering attack...

After absorbing the attacks from Zhuge Xiang, Liao Wufa, and Bai Qi, a dazzling light flashed on the He Shi Bi. Then, the Sword Qi of the Heaven-Slaying Sword, the spear light of the Sha Po Lang Sword, and the earth -Heaven Collapsing Earth Shattering staff shadow of Zhuge Xiang were released from the He Shi Bi, rising against the heavens and crashing towards the Buddha's Palm Realm of the Golden Body Bodhisattva. Their power was in no way weak.

The colossal hand, like a cloud hanging from the sky, shattered with a bang. The Golden Body Bodhisattva withdrew his hand, golden blood dripping from his palm. However, the Golden Body Bodhisattva ignored it, his eyes fixed on the jade disc in the Blood-haired Man's hand, his tone filled with astonishment and disbelief. "The He Shi Bi?"

"The He Shi Bi?" Upon seeing the jade disc in the Blood-haired Man's hand, both Liao Wufa and the God of Slaughter Bai Qi's expressions changed slightly.

"What exactly is the effect of this He Shi Bi? Absorbing reflected damage?" Zhuge Xiang wondered to himself as he looked at the Zhuge Xiang He Shi Bi in the Blood-haired Man's hand. He had heard of the Zhuge Xiang He Shi Bi, but he didn't remember its specific effects.

Although Zhuge Xiang was illiterate, he had heard the story of returning the jade intact to Zhuge Xiang.

It seems that thousands of years ago, the Zhao State a He Shi Bi. Other states were even willing to exchange it for Commandery City. For a Small Kingdom, Commandery City was almost a fraction of its territory. Therefore, in the Human Heart, He Shi Bi He Shi Bi an invaluable treasure. However, no one knew exactly what made it so precious.

"The peerless defensive immortal Immortal Artifact, the He Shi Bi, wasn't it missing? How did you get it?" The God of Slaughter Bai Qi stared in astonishment at the jade disc in the Blood-haired Man's hand and asked in a deep voice.

When the Qin State destroyed the Zhao State, Bai Qi also searched for the Qin Shi Huang, but the He Shi Bi disappeared and its whereabouts were unknown. For thousands of years, no one knew its whereabouts. But unexpectedly, today, this Blood-haired Man was able to produce it.

"Hahaha, the He Shi Bi! Back then, the Zhao State knew that destruction was imminent, and even the He Shi Bi couldn't save Zhao State. Therefore, the King of Zhao State threw it into the Void. Unexpectedly, the Undying Great Roc that roamed the Void happened to encounter it, and thus remembered the location of the He Shi Bi. The Undying Great Roc and I are both manifestations of the wills of the fallen soldiers of the Six Nations. Naturally, I can retrieve this He Shi Bi..."

The Blood-haired Man gently stroked the flawless He Shi Bi in his palm, and laughed loudly.

"Big Brother, what exactly is the effect of this He Shi Bi?" Seeing that Liao Wufa and the others were frowning because of the He Shi Bi, and had lost their previous confidence, Zhuge Xiang couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The He Shi Bi, known as the unparalleled defensive Immortal Artifact in the world, although it has no offensive power, can absorb any attack and then freely reflect it back. From ancient times to the present, no one has ever been able to break through the defense of the He Shi Bi. As you just saw, the attacks of the three of us are no weaker than those of Gods and Buddhas of all Heavens, yet we still couldn't break through the defense of the He Shi Bi," Liao Wufa replied solemnly upon hearing Zhuge Xiang's question.

"Since our attack is ineffective and we cannot kill him, we will not kill him but suppress him instead," Zhuge Xiang said after a moment of contemplation. Since the He Shi Bi is unparalleled in defense and is destined not to kill this Blood-haired Man, then we can only seal and suppress him.

"That's the only way..." Hearing Zhuge Xiang's words, Liao Wufa, the Golden Body Bodhisattva, and Bai Qi nodded in agreement.

Despite all the calculations, no one expected that the opponent would possess the defensive immortal Immortal Artifact, the He Shi Bi. Fortunately, while the He Shi Bi can defend against any form of attack, sealing is not considered an attack.

"You want to suppress me! Do you have the ability?" The Blood-haired Man said with Zhang Kuang and unrestrained smile after hearing Zhuge Xiang and the others' words.

Defeating someone is easier than killing someone, because Cultivator usually keep a few trump cards up their sleeves to save their lives, and few people would be willing to die together with someone else in the end. Therefore, defeating someone is much easier than killing someone.

However, killing someone is easier than sealing someone. If killing simply means attacking and killing the person, then sealing is much more troublesome.

To suppress the opponent with one's own power, while simultaneously trapping them just right, sealing is like binding. However, if the binding is insufficient, it is easy for them to break free.

Originally, Zhuge Xiang and his three companions could have killed the blood- Blood-haired Man if they had joined forces. However, even with the He Shi Bi in hand, they couldn't kill him. Therefore, Zhuge Xiang four of them had no choice but to choose a more difficult method: sealing and suppressing the Blood-haired Man...

"Suppression? We don't have any suitable methods. It seems we can only rely on you..." Thinking of suppression, the God of Slaughter Bai Qi shook his head and said, turning his gaze to the Golden Body Bodhisattva. The Golden Body Bodhisattva's Jade Bodhi Tree was a good treasure for suppressing the target.

"Dear Brother, do you have the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda in your possession?" However, Liao Wufa clearly had a different idea and asked Zhuge Xiang.

"I have it, but I haven't used it much," Zhuge Xiang said somewhat embarrassedly.

He had always been afraid that the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda would cause trouble. Now, although Zhuge Xiang was Guest Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Temple, he didn't know how to explain it to the Heavenly Dragon Temple if he revealed the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda. Therefore, Zhuge Xiang had never used the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda to fight the enemy.

"The Jade Bodhi Tree of the Golden Body Bodhisattva is indeed of a higher grade, but the main function of the Jade Bodhi Tree is not suppression. In my opinion, the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda in Zhuge Xiang's hands is more suitable. We should use the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda," Liao Wufa said after hearing Zhuge Xiang's answer.

"Oh? Dharma's Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda is in his hands?" Liao Wufa's words made Bai Qi look at Zhuge Xiang in surprise. Even the Golden Body Bodhisattva looked at Zhuge Xiang with surprise. He had known Zhuge Xiang for a long time, but even the Golden Body Bodhisattva did not know that the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda was in Zhuge Xiang's hands.

When the Great Qin Dynasty unified the world, the Nine Great Sects joined forces to help, and of course, there was also the abbot of Heavenly Dragon Temple. Back then, the abbot of Tianlong Heavenly Dragon Temple had the Tianlong Suppressing Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda in his hands, and he suppressed countless Evil Demons from the Six Nations. Bai Qi naturally knew the fame of the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda, and even the Golden Body Bodhisattva had heard of it.

"Since there is the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda, then naturally Zhuge Xiang should come." Upon hearing about the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda, Bai Qi naturally changed his mind and advocated that Zhuge Xiang should be sent to suppress the Blood-haired Man. (To be continued...)
