Chapter 349: Chapter 189: Marrying the Bodhisattva Before Obtaining the Sutras, Not Letting Down the Buddha or You! The Vague Red-Haired Monster? (Large Chapter, Please Subscribe)_4
A thousand years later, a strong warrior emerged, brandishing his blade and sweeping through the Qianyuan Divine Province. Even Divine Yuan Realm martial emperors mobilized to face him fell to his sword. Blood-red sword light shone across half the Divine Province, sending tremors through all the sacred lands.
The Divine Yuan Realm martial emperor who was slain was an Arhat from the Buddha Domain’s Xumi Mountain, who had descended to enlighten this scourge. Unexpectedly, he was cut down with a single strike.
At that time, the ruler of Xumi Mountain was not the female Bodhisattva, but another Bodhisattva of the Tongxuan Realm. His cultivation and power touched fate, approaching the threshold of the Sacred Abyss Realm, with one foot almost stepping into it. People called him “Great Bodhisattva.”
What took everyone by surprise was that before the Great Bodhisattva could move to subdue the demon, the formidable emergent warrior turned his blade towards Xumi Mountain. Along the route, the Buddha nation bled, and countless monks were slaughtered.
The Great Bodhisattva was enraged and stepped out from Xumi Mountain for a showdown with this emergent demon.
It was only during that battle that the major forces of the Qianyuan Divine Province realized that the powerful demon that had emerged was Chen Xilai, who a thousand years before, had received the legacy of a meteorite from beyond the heavens.
After disappearing for a thousand years, Chen Xilai’s cultivation had skyrocketed, advancing from the late stages of the True Martial Realm through the Divine Yuan Realm and into the late stages of the Tongxuan Realm, thus becoming an unparalleled strong warrior.
But Chen Xilai, having reappeared, was no longer the same. He had gone mad, killing anyone he saw, with a bloodthirst unmatched, and he seemed to particular enjoy the fresh blood of the strong.
After slaying the Arhat of Xumi Mountain, he stood with his blade in the ninth heaven, laughing while thirstily drinking the Arhat’s blood, instilling fear in the hearts of countless cultivators.
Later, the crazed Chen Xilai continued his bloody path towards Xumi Mountain, slaying from the Devil Region to the Buddha Domain, annihilating cities and spirits alike, eventually confronting the Great Bodhisattva of Xumi Mountain directly.
At that moment, everyone knew Chen Xilai had gone mad and had lost all sense of reason; otherwise, why would he assault Xumi Mountain?
The majesty of the sacred Xumi Mountain was not to be challenged lightly. Even the most powerful beings at the later stages of the Tongxuan Realm, let alone the pinnacle Sacred Abyss Realm Great Saints, would be slain on the spot. A single flicker of sacred power could suppress a Great Saint.
Great Bodhisattva, in a fierce battle with the deranged Chen Xilai, fought heaven-shaking, earth-shattering battles on the southeastern skies of the Buddha Domain, and the void shattered, leaving the sun and moon dark, clashing for hundreds of rounds.
This sight stunned the countless strong who watched. Chen Xilai had become too strong after his madness, clearly just at the seventh layer of the Tongxuan Realm; yet, he was able to withstand the Great Bodhisattva’s might. Though disadvantaged, he was yet to be defeated.
The Great Bodhisattva was an unrivaled strong one, with half a foot in the threshold of the Sacred Abyss Realm. At the time, only the old Taoist of Bai Yujing was a match for him.
The mighty all wondered what Chen Xilai had gained from the meteorite from beyond the heavens to have ascended to this level in just a thousand years, becoming a peerless powerhouse and even turning his Heavenly Blade into a Sacred Soldier, wielding martial skills of the Sacred Abyss Realm.
Many Divine Yuan Realm martial emperors regretted not vying for it back then. Had they obtained the meteorite’s legacy, they might be the ones who had advanced to the later stages of the Tongxuan Realm today.
Even with their cultivation, they could have potentially stepped into the Sacred Abyss Realm in a thousand years. Losing sanity?
These Divine Yuan Realm martial emperors believed that they had the fortitude to resist. They were Divine Yuan Realm martial emperors, after all, and their determination was surely not something for which Chen Xilai could account.
After clashing for hundreds of rounds, the Great Bodhisattva sighed softly, retracting his intent to kill. He aimed to convert the mad Chen Xilai, to take him back to Xumi Mountain to serve as a protector, compensating for the losses the mountain had suffered.
The Great Bodhisattva executed the Buddha’s Palm intent on suppressing Chen Xilai, but what left both himself and the countless strong watching dumbfounded was his failure.
The Buddha’s Palm was an Emperor-level top-notch martial skill, created by an ancient Buddhist Sect Great Emperor. The Great Bodhisattva had cultivated it to the Great Completion Stage, capable of clashing with Saints of the Sacred Abyss Realm.
Latterly, the Great Bodhisattva discovered the source of Chen Xilai’s resistance against suppression to be a red bead inside him. With every fluctuation of this red bead, Chen Xilai grew madder, fine red hairs appeared all over his body, but his aura ballooned, nearly reaching the threshold combat ability of the Sacred Abyss Realm.
The Great Bodhisattva grew even more determined. He had to bring Chen Xilai back to Xumi Mountain. That red bead had to come under the control of the Buddhist Sect and become one of their basis, potentially allowing him to advance to the Sacred Abyss Realm.
Chen Xilai, having been injured by the Great Bodhisattva’s several Buddha’s Palm strikes, regained his sanity briefly and attempted to leave without looking back, seeking to escape from the battlefield.
But would the Great Bodhisattva let Chen Xilai get away?
To avoid complications and potential mishaps, the Great Bodhisattva made a full effort to capture him quickly. Chen Xilai had no choice but to continue stimulating the red bead, not wanting to fall into the hands of the Buddhist Sect.
After another fierce battle for a short while, the Tongxuan Realm powers of the Heavenly Demon Hall finally decided to intervene. Their Devil’s Palm obscured the sky, aiming to suppress Chen Xilai in the chaos and bring him back to the Heavenly Demon Hall.
The Great Bodhisattva shattered his Devil’s Palm with a single strike, only to see several other Tongxuan Realm powers appear, all acting together to seize Chen Xilai, each wanting to possess the red bead within him.
With many Tongxuan Realm powers present, including the two strongest of the time—the Great Bodhisattva of the Buddhist Sect and the old Taoist of Bai Yujing—Chen Xilai was no longer a match and was suppressed on the spot.
However, the Tongxuan Realm powers were at odds regarding Chen Xilai’s fate. The Great Bodhisattva claimed that Chen Xilai should belong to Xumi Mountain. The reason was that Chen Xilai had cut down an Arhat and numerous monks of Xumi Mountain and needed to repay the debt.
But the other mighty scoffed at this claim and didn’t agree. Rather than allowing the Great Bodhisattva to take Chen Xilai back to Xumi Mountain, they would prefer him slain on the spot.
