Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

Chapter 387: Chapter 381: Wu Nengsheng’s Evil Corpse

Yet the more Wu Nengsheng ran, the more alarmed he became.

As time continued to pass, Wu Nengsheng’s heart grew colder and colder.

He realized that the World Honored’s words were probably true, and he feared that support was not coming.

Knowing clearly that no backup would arrive, running further held no meaning.

”Do we really have to fight until the end?” Wu Nengsheng stopped in his tracks and looked at the World Honored.

The World Honored slowly said, ”Fight until the end? You are not worthy!”

Given the World Honored’s attitude, Wu Nengsheng saw no need to say anything further.

Wu Nengsheng stood still, and a strange light began to emanate from his body.

This eerie light flickered like candlelight swaying in the wind.

Then, behind Wu Nengsheng, a mass of dark shadows began to coalesce, and moments later, a withered, thin old monk emerged, resembling a bamboo pole.

Wu Nengsheng was very plump, with a greasy face, but the figure behind him was completely opposite.

The sight of the fat monk and the skinny one together appeared amusing and comical.

Yet, the World Honored’s expression changed repeatedly.

The World Honored acknowledged that he had somewhat underestimated Wu Nengsheng.

This technique of Wu Nengsheng, the World Honored knew better than anyone, for he had used it himself in his first life.

The Three Corpses Cutting Method.

However, back then, the World Honored had cut out the good, evil, and obsessive corpses.

Whereas now, Wu Nengsheng had only cut out one of the three corpses.

”I didn’t expect that I had underestimated you, Wu Nengsheng.”

”You’ve actually also comprehended the Three Corpses Cutting Method?” the World Honored asked, somewhat surprised.

It should be known that the World Honored was the first to comprehend the Three Corpses Cutting Method, and he had never passed this secret technique on.

Now that Wu Nengsheng knew this method, there could only be one explanation — he must have comprehended it himself.

”The supreme principles of heaven and earth ultimately converge.”

”If you can comprehend the Three Corpses Cutting Method, so can I.”

”However, compared to you, I am indeed far too dull. In your first life, you almost cut out three corpses and nearly proved your path.”

”As for me, even now, I have only managed to cut out this one evil corpse,” Wu Nengsheng said slowly.

This was why Wu Nengsheng urgently sought to stop the World Honored from proving his path, even at the cost of becoming a traitor and collaborating with Elder Bai and the others.

It was precisely because he had cut out the evil corpse that he saw hope for proving his path.

If given enough time, he could cut out the good and obsessive corpses, thereby proving his path.

Once the World Honored proved his path, he would have no further opportunity.

Ultimately, the issue was time.

Cutting out the good and obsessive corpses would require at least a thousand years more.

While the World Honored, at most, would need a hundred years, possibly even less, to prove his path.

Thus, he must stop the World Honored from proving his path.

Wu Nengsheng looked at the World Honored and continued, ”This evil corpse is my final card, not intended for use, but you forced my hand.”

”Now that it’s in play, I must ensure your current incarnation stays here today.”

”Come, World Honored, let me show you the prowess of my evil corpse, the Lamp Lighting Ancient Buddha.”

Among the Tier Two Peak Powerhouses, who doesn’t have a few cards up their sleeve?

Though Wu Nengsheng had joined forces with Elder Bai and the others, there was no mutual trust.

This card was originally left for the last moment, hoping to turn on them at a critical juncture and become the final victor himself.

Now that it has been used in the Ten Thousand Mountains, all those ancient beings hidden away have witnessed it.

Soon, the entire Mysterious World will likely know.

...

...

Let’s not waste words.

Wu Nengsheng’s evil corpse directly attacked the World Honored.

In Wu Nengsheng’s evil corpse’s hand, a glazed lamp appeared out of thin air.

This lamp was unlike ordinary lamps, which grow brighter when lit; his glazed lamp grew darker.

Within the glazed lamp, danced a flame of black, and the areas it illuminated were cloaked in a ghostly black light.

”Boom.”

”Boom, boom.”

Wu Nengsheng’s evil corpse flicked the glazed lamp with his finger, shooting countless black flames from the lamp.

These flames swelled with the wind, transforming into hellish demons and charging toward the World Honored.

The World Honored had extensive knowledge and immediately recognized the fire as Karmic Fire.

If Karmic Fire touched one’s body, it would ignite the karmic ties on them, becoming impossible to extinguish.

The more karma one carried, the greater the harm would be.

In lighter cases, one’s cultivation could be greatly reduced; in severe cases, it could lead to death and obliteration.

The World Honored knew he must not let the Karmic Fire touch him.

As the demon-shaped Karmic Fire lunged, the World Honored summoned a bowl.

Bowls, zen staffs, clerical robes, vajra pestles...

These types of magic artifacts were commonplace within the World Honored One Sect, with nearly everyone having one.

Wu Nengsheng himself possessed a Purple Gold Alms Bowl.

However, the World Honored’s bowl was unlike those luxurious golden and purple gold bowls.

His bowl was made of clay.

Indeed, not ceramic, but merely molded clay.

Like when children play house, fashioned from mud dug from the riverbed and dried.

The clay bowl was covered with a dense web of cracks.

It seemed that with even a slight force, it would shatter.

The World Honored raised the bowl, and all the Karmic Fire was absorbed into the bowl, disappearing without a trace.

”I’ll see how many treasures you possess!” Wu Nengsheng shouted explosively, then, his original body pulled out a gold bowl.

”Bang!”

”Bang! Bang!”

The gold bowl rang continuously, creating waves of sound that transformed into various weapons — swords, spears, blades, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks — seemingly aiming to cut the World Honored into pieces.

The World Honored did not dare show weakness; golden light radiated from him, and a robe inlaid with seven treasures appeared on him, blocking the gold bowl’s attack.

It must be said, the World Honored’s treasures were indeed many!

But then again, it was quite logical.

While others live one life, the World Honored lived nine.

In the Mysterious World, he was indubitably the most veteran of the ancient beings.

Surviving countless ages naturally meant he had gained countless treasures in battles.

Although Wu Nengsheng and the evil corpse jointly attacked, while they could suppress the World Honored, they couldn’t capture him.

”If worst comes to worst, I’ll have to summon the Human Seed Bag back!” Wu Nengsheng thought to himself.

The Human Seed Bag, gold bowl, and Purple Gold Alms Bowl are Wu Nengsheng’s three main treasures.

Among them, the most formidable was the Human Seed Bag.

Though the Human Seed Bag was lent to Lin Yuan based on an agreement, now facing a critical situation, Wu Nengsheng could disregard the agreement.

Only by summoning the Human Seed Bag back could he have hope of defeating the World Honored’s third incarnation.

Pondering this, Wu Nengsheng began to chant incantations and gestures, remotely summoning the Human Seed Bag, a treasure he had refined for countless ages, fully aligned with his mind.

Even from within the Real World, Wu Nengsheng could summon it back.
