Great Sun Tathagata Seal

This Buddha mudra is Spirit Transformation of the "Great Sun Tathagata Seal" in the Buddhist Sect.

Although it was far inferior to what a true Buddha could unleash, its power was still terrifying when activated by the Nascent Soul Cultivator, the White-Browed Monk.

Before the Buddha's seal even arrived, the intense, pure Pure Yang energy caused the Ghost Qi aura around Xiaoqian to hiss and melt rapidly, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun.

"Ah!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoqian let out a sharp shriek.

He naturally sensed the terror of the White-Browed Monk's Buddhist seal.

The next moment, Xiaoqian moved like smoke, quickly using "Ghost Shadow Evasion".

Its body instantly transformed into dozens of white phantoms, indistinguishable from the real thing, attempting to escape through the gaps in the Buddha seal.

But at that moment, the many Buddhist Sect disciples who had set up the formation changed their hand seals.

Upon closer inspection, beams of Dao Gold rose from the ground like walls, instantly blocking all of Xiaoqian's paths!

"Bang!"

Xiaoqian was caught off guard and was struck by a Golden Light from Buddhist teachings.

Its soul was violently turbulent, and its aura had weakened considerably.

Before Xiaoqian could make any adjustments, the huge swastika symbol was already overhead.

"This..."

Seeing this, Xiaoqian's heart trembled, and a resolute look flashed in her eyes.

Thinking of the innocent lives lost in the town and the greedy faces of those monks, the anger in his heart was completely ignited at that moment!

"I... I'll fight you to the death!!"

With a furious shout, Xiaoqian suddenly raised her jade-like hand upwards.

"Boom!"

Then, a strange power suddenly burst forth from Xiaoqian's body.

This power is different from the Ghost Cultivator power she practiced.

Once it erupted, it emitted a peaceful Golden Light.

Unlike the magnificent and righteous Golden Light of the Buddhist Sect, this Golden Light is purer and warmer.

It seems to contain a sincere wish.

Chen Changqing, who was secretly watching these scenes, was greatly shocked upon seeing them.

"This... this is the Merit Power?"

Chen Changqing gasped in surprise.

He had previously witnessed similar Merit Power in the Rujie.

What shocked Chen Changqing was...

Xiaoqian, this Ghost Cultivator, actually possessed the Merit Power.

What's going on?

"How could this Merit Power appear on Ghost Cultivator's body?"

Chen Changqing looked puzzled.

Before he could even think of it, the peaceful Golden Light gathered and condensed above Xiaoqian's head, forming a golden lotus bud ready to bloom.

Although the golden lotus was not fully bloomed, the power released from it actually managed to hold back the descending Buddhist Sect swastika seal.

"Sizzle..."

The Merit Golden Light clashed fiercely with the Buddha's seal, eroding each other's power.

In the void, the White-Browed Monk was overjoyed when he saw the golden lotus floating above Xiaoqian's head; his greed was completely undisguised.

"The Merit Golden Lotus!"

"It's almost fully formed and in full bloom!"

"Such pure Merit Power, if I were to obtain it and refine it, would greatly increase my chances of advancing to the Spirit Transformation stage!"

Upon hearing this, the White-Browed Monk's spirits lifted, and he immediately shouted:

"Fellow disciples."

"Please lend me a hand and activate the Demon Refining and Karma Transforming Array!"

As the old monk spoke, the chanting of the Buddhist Sect disciples surrounding them changed once more.

The previous soothing chants have transformed into a more eerie scripture.

"Boom!"

Soon, countless tiny golden runes swept out from the sky, enveloping Xiaoqian.

Xiaoqian held up her Merit Golden Lotus merit with both hands to block the Buddhist swastika seal that the White-Browed Monk was pressing down on the Buddhist Sect, and she had no time to spare for anything else.

Immediately afterwards, countless runes clung to Xiaoqian's body like maggots clinging to her bones.

"Ahhh..."

The next moment, Xiaoqian couldn't help but let out a shrill scream.

One could clearly feel that the countless golden runes attached to his body were forcibly stripping away his Merit Power.

The pain of being stripped of one's origin is countless times more intense than the burning of one's soul.

Soon, the Golden Light Merit Golden Lotus that Xiaoqian held aloft above her head began to dim and sway.

Xiaoqian's face was full of pain, and her eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness.

"Why?"

Why does kindness ultimately lead to such an outcome?

"I... I refuse to accept this!"

"Even if I die today, I will not let you hypocritical bald monks succeed!"

"Ah!!"

For a moment, Xiaoqian roared, and her entire soul body began to contract violently.

At this point, she was completely helpless.

The only thing he could do was detonate his own essence and perish together with these monks before him.

"Snort!"

Seeing this, the White-Browed Monk snorted coldly:

"Trying to self-destruct?"

Too late!

"I accept all the merits you have accumulated!"

Having said that, the White-Browed Monk flicked his finger, and a beam of Buddhist light struck down, directly entering Xiaoqian's body.

Under the shimmering light of Buddha, Xiaoqian's power was instantly sealed, making it impossible for her to self-destruct!

"No..."

Xiaoqian screamed in despair.

The White-Browed Monk and the others, however, did not care at all, and their faces were all filled with strange and sinister smiles.

After suppressing Xiaoqian, the White-Browed Monk didn't delay. With a wave of his wide sleeves, a vast Buddhist power surged out, heading straight for the Merit Golden Lotus above Xiaoqian's head.

His expression clearly indicated that he intended to forcibly strip Xiaoqian of her merits.

You must understand that this merit has long been integrated with Xiaoqian; if it were taken away, Xiaoqian herself would only face death.

As the Buddhist power descended upon her, Xiaoqian's eyes were filled with despair and helplessness.

However, at this critical moment, a sudden change occurred!

"Zheng!"

A sword cry, seemingly emanating from the Nine Netherworlds, carrying boundless killing intent, suddenly rang out!

"Bang!"

The Sword Light flashed, directly annihilating the Buddhist power that had fallen upon Xiaoqian into nothingness.

At the same time, all the Buddhist Sect restrictions binding Xiaoqian were also broken.

"Boom!"

Under the violent impact, the White-Browed Monk was directly blasted back.

The Buddhist Sect disciples who had set up the grand formation suffered a backlash, all spitting blood and flying backward, causing the formation to collapse instantly.

"This?"

What's going on?

"What terrifying Sword Qi!"

"Who?"

"..."

The White-Browed Monk and the others were extremely shocked, their faces filled with bewilderment and confusion. They never expected that something like this would happen at the most crucial moment.

Freed from the constraints of the Buddhist Sect power, Xiaoqian felt a great sense of relief, her expression filled with astonishment.

How could that be?

She was in despair just now, unable even to self-destruct, and could only let the White-Browed Monk and the others do as they pleased.

Who would have thought that such a strange turn of events would occur at the last moment?

Just as everyone was in shock and disarray, a figure slowly descended from the sky.

The newcomer was dressed in a blue robe, with striking features, including sharp eyebrows and bright eyes; he was exceptionally handsome—who else could it be but Chen Changqing?
