It wasn't just the Second Prince Chang Li who couldn't believe it,
The tens of thousands of cultivators present were almost all dumbfounded!
This is a dignified Third Grade Earth Immortal!
This is none other than the Vice Sect Master of the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect!
Especially since this is a terrifying cultivator who has mastered Early Stage Immortal Artifact!
This Flame Saber Duan He, before even making a move, merely heard the name of his opponent and immediately knelt down. Not only did he kneel, but he also reduced his own disciple to ashes?
Of course, there were also some practitioners who had heard of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect.
These cultivators looked at Jialin Bodhisattva of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect with expressions of awe.
hushed whispers began to rise.
"My God, it's actually someone from the Lingtai Buddhist Sect, and even the Lingtai Buddhist Sect's Jialin Bodhisattva! No wonder tens of thousands of cultivators present were affected by that Buddhist secret technique just now!"
"Indeed, who would have thought that a Bodhisattva from the Western Lingtai Buddhist Sect, hundreds of millions of miles away, would actually come here? Tsk tsk, this time, I'm afraid those people from the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect won't be able to escape so easily!"
"No way! Isn't that Flame Saber Duan He a late-stage Rank 3 Earth Immortal? Isn't he the Vice Sect Leader of the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect? How could he be so afraid? A late-stage Rank 3 Earth Immortal's Golden Core is almost indestructible. Even if he can't defeat the opponent, he can still escape!"
"Heh, run away? My friend, you probably don't know how powerful the Lingtai Buddhist Sect is!"
" Lingtai Buddhist Sect very powerful?"
"It's more than just powerful! The five major immortal domains of the Central Divine Dynasty —east, west, south, north, and center—are practically boundless, with hundreds of immortal sects and thousands of Earth Immortals. Yet, even so, they are still somewhat oppressed by the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect in the north. Every few thousand years, the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect launches a Immortal-Demon War, reaping the lives of countless cultivators and slaughtering some so-called immortal Earth Immortals!"
Eighty thousand years ago, the Lingtai Buddhist Sect in the West sent twelve bodhisattvas across the boundless regions of the Western world and the Central Divine Dynasty to the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect, where they provoked a war between Buddha and demon. It is said that in that war, a total of seventy-two Demonic Being whose realm was comparable to that of Earth Immortals perished. These were all terrifying Demonic Being who could fight against Earth Immortals of the same realm and even overpower them!
Moreover, in that great war between Demonic Buddha that kept the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect from leaving the Northern Region for tens of thousands of years, none of the twelve Bodhisattvas of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect perished. Only two Bodhisattvas were knocked down by the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect's experts, dropping to the strength of Eighth Grade Earth Immortal!
Do you think the Lingtai Buddhist Sect is strong?
Compared to the Lingtai Buddhist Sect, even the most powerful immortal sect in the Central Divine Dynasty is just a minor player, not to mention the twelve great immortal sects of the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty. And the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect doesn't even rank in the top three among the twelve great immortal sects! Can you feel the difference in strength between the two sides?"
"Holy crap!"
"Not only that, you've only heard of the power of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect, but you probably haven't heard of this Jialin Bodhisattva!"
In that great battle between Buddha and demon, the strongest of the twelve Bodhisattvas was the Yuzhen Bodhisattva. It is said that the Yuzhen Bodhisattva alone punished thirty-six great Demonic Being of the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect. The Yuzhen Bodhisattva was thus known as the number one Bodhisattva of all laws and phenomena!
And this Jialin Bodhisattva is said to be True Disciple of Yuzhen Bodhisattva. It is said that she has only cultivated for a few hundred years and has already become a Bodhisattva at the Second Grade Earth Immortal level!
"Holy crap!"
"No wonder, no wonder! It turns out that this Flame Blade Earth Immortal from the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect didn't just kick a nut; he kicked the hardest, most terrifying nut in the world!"
"Tsk tsk! I wonder how many Earth Fire Spirit Immortal Sect has, and whether they're enough for that Yuzhen Bodhisattva to kill."
Amid the discussion,
Activating his Eight Gates Heavenly Eyes, Lin Xuankong, who was 'hearing' the crowd's discussion, also showed a look of surprise.
He had known Jialin Bodhisattva for a long time and had also heard that the Lingtai Buddhist Sect was very strong, known as the number one Buddhist sect among countless Buddhist sects, and capable of fighting the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect head-on!
But he never expected that the Lingtai Buddhist Sect would be so renowned. Moreover, he also never expected that the kind-hearted Jialin Bodhisattva, who was so eager to recruit him into the Lingtai Buddhist Sect, would have such a powerful background! Her master, Yuzhen Bodhisattva, was actually the number one Bodhisattva of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect!
No wonder! I was wondering why this Jialin Bodhisattva would so casually give me such a precious Buddhist Spiritual Treasure. Turns out, she wasn't a spendthrift Junior Bodhisattva; she was an incredibly wealthy Junior Bodhisattva!
They have the incredibly powerful and influential Jade Yuzhen Bodhisattva to rely on; what Buddhist Spiritual Treasure can't they get!
Li Xiaohu, Hu Shuo, Yang Shan, Li Er, and the others standing to the side also showed expressions of astonishment upon witnessing this scene.
Li Xiaohu, who had previously planned to fight to the death, glanced at the Jialin Bodhisattva, then at Lin Xuankong.
He suddenly revealed a strange smile, and quietly moved closer to Lin Xuankong, whispering in his ear:
" Adoptive Father, you're amazing! You actually saved such a powerful figure. Now, you can probably roam freely in Crane Immortal City!"
Haha, if Adoptive Father could take this delicate Female Bodhisattva as his wife, he'd probably be able to do whatever he wanted not only in Crane Immortal City, but also in the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty. After all, this Junior Bodhisattva only had to state her name to make that Third Grade Earth Immortal Duan He kneel down and beg for mercy!
Good heavens, good heavens! Adoptive Father, you really have incredible luck!
Taking this delicate, bodhisattva- Female Bodhisattva as his concubine? I'm afraid that Yuzhen Bodhisattva of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect would scatter his own ashes in anger!
Lin Xuankong immediately slapped Li Xiaohu on the back of the head, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Li Xiaohu continued to chuckle, "At the very least, thanks to my Adoptive Father's and this Female Bodhisattva's connections, I doubt anyone in Crane Immortal City would dare to mess with us!"
This is utter nepotism nonsense! It's a complete fabrication and slander!
Lin Xuankong glared at him, but Little Tiger covered the back of his head and ran away.
At this time, on the side of Jialin Bodhisattva,
Huang Liutao, an Earth Immortal from the Crane Immortal Sect floating beside her, looked at Duan He, the Flame Saber Duan He, kneeling on the ground, and a gloating expression appeared in his eyes.
Of course, he had long anticipated that once he revealed the names of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect and Jialin Bodhisattva, this Flame Saber Duan He would definitely admit defeat on the spot and kneel down to beg for mercy, even if he had a hundred thousand times the courage of a bear and a leopard!
However, Huang Liutao, who had a grudge against Flame Saber Duan He hundreds of years ago, was not about to let Flame Saber Duan He kneel down so easily. In his opinion, the more Flame Saber Duan He, who was always domineering and extremely shameless, offended Jialin Bodhisattva this time, the better. In that case, not only Flame Saber Duan He, but the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect would probably be wiped out!
After feeling proud in his heart, the Earth Immortal from the Linghe Immortal Sect showed a sigh of relief.
"Oh dear, Brother Duan, I kindly warned you before that the person beside me is not someone you can afford to offend, nor is he someone your Fire Spirit Immortal Sect can afford to offend. What a pity, what a pity, you stubbornly refused to listen to my advice. If only you had known then what you know now!"
Hearing his old rival say this, Flame Saber Duan He was filled with resentment. Unfortunately, in front of Jialin Bodhisattva, he was already trembling with fear and dared not bare his teeth.
He frowned and glanced at Huang Liutao of the Crane Immortal Sect, then clasped his hands together again before Jialin Bodhisattva, and kowtowed dozens more times, speaking with a devout expression:
"By the grace of Jialin Bodhisattva, I, Xiaoxian Duan He, have already killed this rebellious scoundrel on the spot. This fellow has been going too far lately, never liking to listen to my teachings. This time, he dared to rashly attack a Buddhist disciple; he truly deserved to die, deserved to be torn to pieces!"
"I only hope that Jialin Bodhisattva will not be angry. Duan He and the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect both follow the lead of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect and have always treated the disciples of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect with utmost respect, never daring to oppose them in the slightest!"
After saying this, this Third Grade Earth Immortal actually kowtowed dozens more times atop the fiery red clouds.
Lin Xuankong watched this scene, a flash of killing intent suddenly appearing in his eyes.
This Flame Saber Duan He truly lives up to his reputation as an extremely ruthless individual.
The worst part is that he's not only ruthless to others, but also excessively ruthless to himself!
Even though he had never seen the hundreds of Earth Immortals from the Central Divine Dynasty, he was absolutely certain that among those Earth Immortals whose strength, influence, and lifespan far surpassed that of ordinary cultivators, very few of them would be able to kneel down in front of tens of thousands of people!
What a ruthless fellow who knows when to yield and when to stand firm!
However, the more this is the case, the more this kind of guy must be eliminated!
Otherwise, given Flame Saber Duan He's ruthlessness, he would surely try every means to endanger himself and everyone else's lives if he were to target me, Xiao Lan, Ying'er, and Little Tiger in the future!
at this time,
Hearing Flame Saber Duan He He's obsequious words,
Jialin Bodhisattva completely ignored him, and a hint of disgust even appeared in her eyes.
After shaking her head slightly, she urged the clouds to approach her disciple's location. Only when she was five hundred feet away from the little nun from the Lingtai Buddhist Sect did she descend from the clouds and stand near Lin Xuankong!
Upon seeing Jialin Bodhisattva's reaction, Duan He, wielding the Flame Saber Duan He, revealed a look of fear.
As an old monster who had cultivated for thousands of years, he was of course very clear that although the Bodhisattvas of the Lingtai Buddhist Sect claimed to be compassionate all day long, when it came to the quantity and quality of their kills, even dozens of the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect tied together might not be enough to kill that Yuzhen Bodhisattva!
At this moment, Flame Saber Duan He almost impulsively decided to slap himself, wishing he could knock his jaw off!
Damn it, why did they have to offend someone like that!
How did I end up running headfirst into the Lingtai Buddhist Sect?!
Unfortunately, even though Flame Saber Duan He was filled with regret, he still dared not get up from the red cloud. In fact, he kept his hands clasped together at all times, as if he dared not relax!
Because he knew perfectly well that if Jialin Bodhisattva really wanted to hold him accountable this time, the sect leader and the elders of the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect Supreme Elder would probably immediately back down and sell him out!
While everyone was thinking their own thoughts,
Suddenly, dark clouds rolled in the sky.
It was early morning, and the sun was shining in the east, but after countless dark clouds suddenly gathered together, the sky quickly darkened!
Moreover, the dark clouds were increasing in number, churning and rolling closer to the ground.
Before long, the thick, dark clouds had reached a height of about two thousand feet above the ground!
This distance is extremely close to the ground! Strangely, after thousands of years of management by the Crane Immortal Sect, Crane Immortal City had already set up an extremely powerful protective immortal array. However, those rolling dark clouds were completely unaffected by the immortal array, which could block attacks from high-grade immortals. They directly penetrated the protective shield of the immortal array and pressed down to a position close to two thousand feet above the ground!
Even the Crane Immortal Sect auction house, which was originally floating in mid-air above Crane Immortal City, was directly shrouded in countless dark clouds!
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Xuankong's expression changed slightly.
The sky from south to north and from east to west was filled with dark, heavy clouds, all pressing down to a height of two thousand feet. The sheer number of these clouds created an immense sense of visual oppression!
What was most suffocating was that, amidst the churning dark clouds, bolts of lightning as thick as small buildings constantly streaked through. These incredibly agile bolts of lightning seemed to possess a life of their own, and instead of striking the ground, they all converged on the location of the Crane Immortal City!
In a short while,
In the Crane Immortal City, directly above the little nun from the Lingtai Buddhist Sect, countless terrifying bolts of lightning, as thick as buildings and thousands of feet long, had gathered. These bolts of lightning continued to twist and gather, and at a glance, there were probably tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of terrifying bolts of lightning!
What's most terrifying is that the power contained in this lightning is hundreds of times more ferocious than the lightning released by Lin Xuankong, Layer Nine Perfection Yin Talisman Lightning cultivator!
This lightning was far more powerful than the Yin Talisman Lightning that Lin Xuankong had unleashed after activating all his enhanced techniques. The key was that there was an astonishing quantity of it, and it was still gathering, seemingly hundreds of thousands or even millions of bolts!
"Heavenly Tribulation? This is the Heavenly Tribulation? Could it be that the little nun from the Lingtai Buddhist Sect is about to undergo the Calamity of Becoming Immortal? This is too much! So much divine lightning, it's probably enough to turn the ground within a hundred miles into a wreck!" Li Xiaohu looked up at this scene and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Lin Xuankong then gestured for everyone to retreat. This little nun was about to undergo her tribulation, and when a large amount of divine lightning struck down, if they were caught in the blast, Little Tiger and the others probably wouldn't be able to withstand even a single bolt of divine lightning without activating their immortal artifacts!
This is the Heavenly Tribulation? The first Heavenly Tribulation one must overcome to become an immortal? It truly lives up to its name as a tribulation. Even I find it difficult to cope with!
Moreover, just looking at the sheer number of those endless dark clouds, this heavenly tribulation is probably not just as simple as being struck by lightning!
Thinking that he too would have to face such a tribulation in the future, Lin Xuankong, after leading Little Tiger and the others back a thousand feet, focused his attention and carefully looked at the little nun!
