Grains of crimson-gold divine light danced through the void, as though someone had suddenly scattered a great handful of crimson-gold divine sand from within the emptiness.
Yet in the blink of an eye, those grains of crimson-gold divine light gathered together and took human form, revealing the Black Bodhi Heavenly Mother, her entire body rippling with dark, heavy divine radiance.
Boundless divine light condensed outside the Black Bodhi Heavenly Mother into the phantom of an enormous black Maitreya Buddha. In the heavens, it seemed as though the roaring hum of countless magical treasures in flight had suddenly arisen.
An incomparably vast aura instantly filled the void for a thousand li in every direction, making even the blizzard seem to freeze completely in place.
The already dark sky became even darker with the Black Bodhi Heavenly Mother's sudden appearance, as if layer upon layer of dark clouds had fallen directly upon Wei Suo. Less than five hundred li separated the two.
"You have not attacked because you know you are no match for me, or because you wish to understand how I have been able to follow you so relentlessly while still hoping to escape?" As soon as the Black Bodhi Heavenly Mother appeared, Wei Suo immediately halted in midair. After glancing at him, her huge face once more filled with a mocking expression, though this time her mockery was even more sinister.
"Who is no match for whom is still hard to say. Why are you alone?" Wei Suo stood motionless in the void, his face expressionless as he looked at the Black Bodhi Heavenly Mother. This woman, fat and ugly in appearance, was far more formidable than he had imagined. He had not attacked at once precisely because he saw that she had no immediate intention of attacking either.
