Chapter 586: Chapter 412: Spirit of the Buddha Statue, Great Power Reincarnation!
Xu Yang’s face twitched slightly, and he quickly asked, “Where is the nine Netherworld Demon?”
Indeed, the Netherworld Demon could be a source of disaster.
But a single nine Netherworld Demon also represented a large amount of good karma points!
As his cultivation level increased, Xu Yang needed more and more good karma points for his practice. In the past two days, he had used up 9 million points just for practicing the water element path, earth element path, and the puppetry path, leaving him with only 19.6 million out of the 28 million he had accumulated.
To upgrade again, he would need even more good karma points!
Not to mention that Xu Yang was also practicing martial arts!
If he wanted to improve rapidly in all aspects, he would need even more good karma points!
So, Xu Yang didn’t want to miss any opportunity to earn “large amounts of good karma.”
“Just outside the city!”
Duke said, “In the previous battle, although our brother Hong Laoer was seriously injured, we, together, had also injured the nine Netherworld Demon. It sneaked back probably wanting to recover its strength by sucking the blood of the people in the city, but it did not expect that Hong Laoer was always watching and discovered it right away!”
“Outside the city?”
Xu Yang had an idea and sent out his divine thoughts.
He immediately caught the scent left by the Netherworld Demon and instantly flew out of the villa and arrived at Deputy General’s side quickly.
Duke and several other Ghost Immortal generals also hurried over.
“Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Deputy General saluted and, without any unnecessary words, pointed to the night sky and said, “Your Majesty, the Netherworld Demon escaped in that direction.”
Xu Yang activated his Heavenly Eye and looked in the direction the Deputy General pointed. As expected, he saw a trace of blood-colored demonic energy lingering in the night sky!
“Chase!”
At Xu Yang’s command, he took the lead, followed by the eight Ghost Immortals chasing after the Netherworld Demon.
However, before they had gone a dozen miles, Xu Yang’s face changed, and he quickly shouted, “Stop!”
At this moment, he was still using his “Heavenly Eye.”
Under the “Heavenly Eye Skill,” Buddha’s light surged into the sky in front of him, filled with grandeur and mightiness. Within the magnificent light, faint Buddhist chants could be heard!
Xu Yang asked, “What’s ahead?”
Duke glanced at the area ahead and replied, “Your Majesty, Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are ahead.”
“Mogao Grottoes?”
Xu Yang muttered, “I can ‘see’ that the blood-colored demonic energy has entered the range of the Mogao Grottoes, so there’s no need to pursue any further. That nine Netherworld Demon went into the Mogao Grottoes, which is undoubtedly a dead end!”
Mogao Caves, located in Ganshire Province’s Jiuquan City.
They were built during the Sixteen Kingdoms period and continued to be carved until the Yuan Dynasty, spanning nearly a thousand years and forming the world’s largest and most abundant collection of Buddhist art, boasting 735 caves, 45,000 square meters of murals, and over 2,400 colored clay sculptures!
The Mogao Grottoes also had another name in folklore.
It was called the “Thousand Buddha Caves”!
Xu Yang continued to operate his “Heavenly Eye Skill” and stared at the blood-colored demonic energy.
As the blood-colored demonic energy flew into the Mogao Caves, it seemed to trigger a chemical reaction, as the majestic and peaceful Buddha’s light suddenly erupted.
“Ah!”
“What is that?”
In the darkness of the night, the Netherworld Demon, whose figure was hidden by its stealth technique, was exposed by the Buddha’s light, which had an unparalleled restraining power on it. When the light touched the Demon, it emitted sizzling noises and produced thick green smoke!
However, this Netherworld Demon was no ordinary creature!
Its strength had reached the Asura Realm, comparable to Immortal Beings. Even if it was slightly injured and not at its peak, it was powerful enough to shake the world!
While being scorched by the Buddha’s light and screaming in pain, the Netherworld Demon produced a blood-red sword in its hand, roared, and swung it at the void.
“Amitabha!”
“Monster of the Netherworld, how dare you act recklessly on my holy Buddhist land?”
In an instant, the Buddha’s light in one of the caves surged.
A Buddha’s voice rang out, and Xu Yang saw a golden hand reach out from the cave, gently patting…
Slap!
The Netherworld Demon, with strength comparable to Immortal Beings, fell to the ground like an ant!
The Buddha’s light hand turned and prepared to slap again, but Xu Yang reacted and rushed forward, shouting, “Senior…please spare his life!”
The Buddha’s light hand paused mid-air, and a voice from the cave said with a laugh, “So it’s Celestial Master Xu who has come… Since Celestial Master Xu has spoken, this poor monk will spare its life.”
Buzz!
The Buddha’s light hand vanished.
The vast Buddha’s light receded and returned to the cave.
In an instant, the entire Mogao Grottoes returned to their mundane appearance, and not a trace of Buddha’s light or any anomaly could be seen in the sky. Even if Xu Yang used his “Heavenly Eye Skill” to its utmost, he could not detect any abnormalities.
This made Xu Yang’s scalp tingle.
He had thought that his strength had reached the peak of the world and that he was one of the most powerful masters in the world.
However, at this moment, he realized…
The depth of the waters in the world was astonishing!
Who could have thought that such a powerful figure was hidden within the Mogao Grottoes in Ganshire Province’s Jiuquan City?
Without even showing their face, they were able to effortlessly slap a nine Netherworld Demon, nearly killing it with a single palm strike. Their strength must have reached the level of Immortal Beings, and not just any ordinary Immortal Beings!
Xu Yang descended to the ground and approached the Netherworld Demon.
He glanced at the ground beneath the Demon’s body, and his pupils couldn’t help but constrict!
“Not a scratch…”
“The terrifying power of that Buddha’s light hand knocked this Asura Realm Netherworld Demon from the sky. It could have shattered a mountain, yet the ordinary stone slabs here were unscathed?”
