The Great Sage's Body (Part 3)

The Black Water Profound Dragon has guarded the Dragon Tomb for millions of years, collecting the blood of tens of thousands of the Dragon Clan to temper itself. When Zhuge Xiang fought against it, the Black Water Profound Dragon also used the move "Spirit of Ten Thousand Dragons". At that time, the True Dragon Phantom Image it summoned each had 10,000 HP, which, after being enhanced, amounted to a total of 100 million.

Now, the Black Water Profound Dragon has reconstructed its Immortal Body and departed. Although the remaining dragon body doesn't possess much power, the Spirit of Ten Thousand Dragons still retains one-tenth of its peak power. Even though it's only one-tenth, it's a very useful ability for Zhuge Xiang...

The Spirit of Ten Thousand Dragons, once activated, grants a boost of 100 million HP? Zhuge Xiang didn't dare to hope for that, but with a boost of 10 million HP, Zhuge Xiang already very satisfied.

It's important to understand that Zhuge Xiang's physical body is incredibly strong, with HP of only a million. Zhuge Xiang's never even seen Cultivator in the Cultivation World with a life value of a million. Now, with HP boost of ten million, who could possibly defeat him in a direct confrontation?

The Spirit of Ten Thousand Dragons is a versatile treasure. When held in hand, it functions like a whip or a rope. If worn on the wrist, it will automatically occupy a wristband or bracelet slot. When hung around the neck, it will occupy a necklace slot.

After thinking for a moment, Zhuge Xiang tied the Spirit of Ten Thousand Dragons to his waist, letting it take up the equipment space on his belt.

"That Dragon Clan is indeed a kind and righteous bunch. Even after ascending, they left behind a portion of their power within their bodies and gifted it to you." Looking at the Mysterious Dragon Body in Zhuge Xiang's hand, although she didn't know its specific effects, Wu Xuefei could sense the aura and power contained within it.

Others might not know, but Wu Xuefei knew very well. By reshaping her Immortal Body, her own power, Essence, Qi, and Spirit would be completely concentrated and transferred into the Immortal Body. Her previous physical body, even if it was a dragon body, would become nothing more than a stinking carcass. However, the body left behind by the Black Water Profound Dragon contained a portion of its power, Immortal-Demon level power. Although it was only a part, it was still extremely precious.

"I see..." Upon hearing Wu Xuefei's words, Zhuge Xiang suddenly understood. He had thought that the Black Water Profound Dragon's body contained such power as was normal. In that case, Half-Immortal Artifact Grade treasures were too common. He never expected that it was something the dragon had deliberately left for him. Just as Wu Xuefei said, the Black Water Profound Dragon was indeed a creature of loyalty and righteousness.

"By the way, junior brother, how did you figure out that this deserted island is a body?" Ying Qianshan had escaped, and the Black Water Profound Dragon had also ascended. At this moment, only Zhuge Xiang, Wu Xuefei, and Ying Wushuang remained. Wu Xuefei asked Zhuge Xiang curiously.

"Look at what I have in my hand." After a moment of silence, Zhuge Xiang took out the Treasure Map he had obtained from the Thatched Cottage of the Cold-Blooded Sword Venerable and pretended to be ignorant, saying, "It seems to record the body of a powerful Demon Race, scattered in various places. As long as you collect them all, you can revive the body with the power of the Demon Luo Scripture. This deserted island seems to be a part of this body."

"So that's how it is. There's actually such a Treasure Map in the world?" Wu Xuefei's eyes lit up as she looked at the Treasure Map in Zhuge Xiang's hand. Wu Xuefei's purpose was to work hard for the Great Sage's body, and now that she had such a Treasure Map, Wu Xuefei was naturally tempted.

"Junior brother, how about we make a deal?" Wu Xuefei asked, her eyes fixed on the Treasure Map in Zhuge Xiang's hand.

Wu Xuefei was determined to obtain the Treasure Map in her hands, and Zhuge Xiang was well aware of this, as was his reason.

In the Demon Realm, there are only four Great Sages: the Great Sage Pingtian, the Great Sage Yuefei, the Great Sage Moluo, and the Great Sage Chiyou. The Great Sage's Body, which is scattered throughout the Cultivation World, should be the Great Sage Moluo. After traveling through the Demon Realm, Zhuge Xiang has gained a lot of knowledge.

The Great Sage Moluo's true form is a Black Lotus. It is rumored to have an inseparable connection with Western Heaven Buddhism, and even forced the Great Sun Tathagata of Western Buddhism to reincarnate to avoid calamity. Wu Xuefei has a close relationship with the Great Sage, so much so that even the Six-Eared Macaque cannot hear her messages.

Wu Xuefei went to great lengths to search for the Great Sage's Body Demon Luo, which was scattered throughout the Cultivation World. Moreover, when the seal was broken, Zhuge Xiang also saw Wu Xuefei's true form, which was a Black Lotus. It seems that Wu Xuefei's identity is obvious. She should have a close relationship with the Great Sage Moluo.

"A deal? I wonder what kind of deal you mean, Senior Sister?" Zhuge Xiang knew Wu Xuefei's purpose very well, but he still pretended to be unaware and asked with a curious look.

"Can I have this Treasure Map? In exchange, I can give you a Body-Refining Technique from the Demon Realm, the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique, how about it?" Wu Xuefei asked, her eyes burning as she looked at the Treasure Map in Zhuge Xiang's hand.

"The Great Strength Bull Demon Technique?" Upon hearing Wu Xuefei's words, Zhuge Xiang was both amused and exasperated. It seemed that she truly did not know that he was the Strange King in the Asura Path; otherwise, she would not have offered the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique to him in exchange.

"Body-Refining Technique? I think Senior Sister has good judgment and already possesses a decent Body-Refining Technique, so there's no need," Zhuge Xiang said, shaking his head. The exchange wasn't the main point; the main point was, besides the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique, what other good Cultivation Technique could she offer?

"That's right, Junior Brother's Body-Refining Technique is indeed very good," Wu Xuefei naturally saw that Zhuge Xiang's physical body was strong, and nodded.

Her brows furrowed slightly as she pondered for a moment, then she spoke again, "Judging from your skill with the sword, Junior Brother, I have another Sword Formula called the Buddha Slaying Sword Art. I wonder if Junior Brother would be interested?"

"The Buddha Slaying Sword Art?" Upon hearing Wu Xuefei's words, Zhuge Xiang's heart stirred slightly.

The Great Sage Moluo is the incarnation of the Black Lotus. It is rumored that he has intricate connections with Western Buddhism, and the lotus is the flower of Buddhism. In this light, the relationship between the Great Sage Moluo and Western Heaven Buddhism is indeed intriguing. This Buddha Slaying Sword Art is enough to show that it should be the Great Sage Moluo's ultimate skill.

The Demon Subduing Sword Art is specifically designed to suppress all evil forces in the world. Furthermore, the Heavenly Demon Zen Sound can convert Yaomo Ghosts and Monsters. If we were to say that Zhuge Xiang were to disguise himself as Buddhist Sect disciple, I believe no one would suspect him.

This Buddha Slaying Sword Art is likely Swordsmanship specifically designed to deal with Buddhist disciples, much like the Demon Subduing Sword Art and the Heavenly Demon Zen Sound, possessing remarkable effectiveness against specific targets?

"Alright! In that case, let's change it. I hope you won't try to fool me with ordinary Swordsmanship, Senior Sister." After pondering for a moment, Zhuge Xiang nodded in agreement and, without hesitation, tossed the Treasure Map in his hand into Wu Xuefei's hands.

"Junior brother is so generous, how could senior sister deceive you? Don't worry, the Buddha Slaying Sword Art is definitely worth more than its price for you." Wu Xuefei hurriedly took the Treasure Map that Zhuge Xiang threw over and held it tightly in her hand. A smile spread across her pretty face. As she spoke, she pointed her finger, and thousands of rays of light transformed into a ball of light that shot towards Zhuge Xiang.

He caught it, his mind completely absorbed in it, comprehending the essence of the Zhuge Xiang -Buddha Slaying Sword Art. Then, a broad smile appeared on his face. Just as Wu Xuefei had said, this Buddha Slaying Sword Art was truly worth every penny. With this Swordsmanship in hand, Zhuge Xiang would hardly have to worry about facing Buddhist disciples anymore.

The Great Strength Bull Demon Technique has Ninth Layer. If one can comprehend the Third Layer, one can become Official Disciple of the Great Sage Pingtian, and their physical strength will be enough to walk in the Demon Realm. When one reaches the Fourth Layer, their physical strength is comparable to that of Immortal-Demon level. For example, if the Great Sage Pingtian reaches the Ninth Layer, even Great Sage level of the same stage will find it difficult to harm him in the slightest.

The Buddha Slaying Sword Art only has one move; how can it be compared to the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique? However, upon seeing the Buddha Slaying Sword Art, Zhuge Xiang was delighted.

Although it cannot compare to the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique, Wu Xuefei offered the Buddha Slaying Sword Art in the trade right after, which shows that the value of the Buddha Slaying Sword Art is not much less than that of the Great Strength Bull Demon Technique.

Buddha Slaying Sword Art (Beginner Level): All Swordsmanship attacks inflict a soul-devouring effect on Buddhist beings, consuming their souls. To advance to the Second Layer, a soul-devouring attribute of 10,000 is required; currently, it is 0.10,000.

After Zhuge Xiang spent a Skill Point and successfully mastered the Buddha Slaying Sword Art, the Skill information told Zhuge Xiang that this Buddha Slaying Sword Art Swordsmanship designed to counter Buddhism. Improving the Swordsmanship technique wasn't simply a matter of spending Skill Point; rather, it became stronger the more souls of the Buddhist Sect disciples it devoured.

Although it doesn't provide any attack power bonus, all of its Swordsmanship attacks can devour the souls of Buddhist disciples. Once the soul is damaged and devoured, it's extremely difficult to recover. With such Swordsmanship, I ask you, which Buddhist disciple would dare to attack me?

"Alright, I've given you the Buddha Slaying Sword Art. Junior brother, you have other important matters to attend to, so please leave for now. I'll take this torso part," Wu Xuefei said to Zhuge Xiang solemnly as she accepted the Treasure Map.

As she spoke, Wu Xuefei stood in mid-air, and a Black Lotus Phantom Image ten thousand feet tall appeared behind her, its surging and pure Demonic Qi enveloping every corner of the deserted island.

Rumble...

The deserted island trembled violently, as if mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting. The wild beasts on the island fled in terror, but they were too insignificant compared to the deserted island formed from their bodies. Even the Demonfolk living in the Underground Space were insignificant beings.

The enormous deserted island was lifted up by Wu Xuefei, and the island, which was like a high mountain, shrank rapidly until it was the size of a normal human torso.

Although it still looks like a stone, its appearance is no different from a human body. On the torso, all the animals and trees become very small.

"This matter is settled. Senior Sister has other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave for now. We'll meet again someday," Wu Xuefei said, putting away her torso. She then quickly departed. (To be continued...)
