Chapter 2824: Sky-Devouring Ghost Ants
The vast tide of demonic water surged onward. Everywhere it passed, the demons and ghosts along the lakeshore were swept up and carried toward the distant Thunder Hall, rolling forward with a roar like a landslide and a tsunami.
The demonic creatures that had originally inhabited the lake also shrieked wildly as they surged forward.
"I've spent nearly ten thousand years painstakingly preparing for this day! Alchemy King Lu, once I've recovered, I'll reward you handsomely. I'm off!" The Heaven-Connecting Devil Lord burst into loud laughter. A flash of black light passed, and the demonic cloud he had transformed into plunged into the roiling tide.
The Lotus Avatar stood motionless above the demonic lake. As for the severed arm, it was resting to one side; breaking the seal left behind by the Buddhist sect had cost it a great deal.
"Let's go take a look over by the Thunder Hall." After recovering most of its strength, the severed arm set off for the Thunder Hall again with the Lotus Avatar.
Looking at the hall, still flickering with lightning, the severed arm felt a pang of emotion. Back then, the original body had received some care from Yao Qingying here. If there had been any choice, he truly would not have wanted to disturb the place where Yao Qingying had entered nirvana.
But the severed arm soon steeled itself again. Since Ming'e had attained the Mahayana Realm here, he must have made all the necessary arrangements concerning the Thunder Hall. The Buddhist sect had once valued this place so highly partly because Shi Qinglei Buddha had entered nirvana here and left behind one of the sect's lineages. Now that Ming'e had obtained that inheritance, the Thunder Hall's importance to the Buddhist sect had naturally diminished considerably.
