Chapter 1058: Chapter 1052: Fake Bodhisattva

[Your descendant Li Kuanghua, having cultivated Buddhist Dharma for many years, has broken through to the Void Refinement realm and forged a Buddhist Dao Bodhisattva statue—Bodhisattva Prowess.]

[Bodhisattva Prowess contains the will of the Dusheng Nunnery’s monks over tens of thousands of years.

It can transmit the power of faith and contains the power of the Three Forms of Buddhism.

It can transmit faith, ward off demons and evil spirits, and guide sentient beings to liberation using its Dharma Body.]

[Acquired Buddhist technique: Martial Dao Buddha Body.]

[The Bodhisattva Prowess statue has already spread scriptures to the mortal realm. The scriptures belong to the Martial Dao, strengthening the physique and martial arts.

The faith of all living beings has forged a Void Refinement space. Believing in Bodhisattva Prowess as the ultimate Buddha of the Buddhist Martial Dao, its Buddhist Dharma can protect the physical body.]

[Therefore, the Martial Dao Buddha Body is a true Buddha of Martial Dao body cultivation. With the physical body blessed by Buddhist power, it is comparable to a Dharma Treasure.]

“Boom!”

Li Kuanghua’s Martial Dao Buddha Body was complete!

Throwing a punch at Dharma Master Hongzhen, the Bodhisattva Prowess statue glared with wide, angry eyes.

The faith of the mortal realm was truly a wonderful thing.

Li Kuanghua’s Buddha statue imparted martial arts, and in the eyes of the mortals who believed in Bodhisattva Prowess, the Bodhisattva was an indomitable figure standing between heaven and earth.

Little did they know that it was the power of their faith that forged this Bodhisattva statue for Li Kuanghua.

Dust and smoke billowed. Even though the two Bodhisattva Dharmakayas were floating in the air, the ground beneath them caved in from the collision of the two entities.

Dharma Master Hongzhen’s Dusheng Bodhisattva statue had already turned around, blocking Li Kuanghua’s fist with a single palm, not budging an inch.

As expected of the Half-Step Body Integration realm, such a fully charged sneak attack was nothing more than a harmless tickle to Dharma Master Hongzhen.

“Your demonic nature hasn’t dissipated?”

Dharma Master Hongzhen was in disbelief.

In the courtyard, Li Kuanghua had already levitated into the air.

Black mist permeated the area around her, and monstrous demonic energy emerged from within her body, contending with the Buddhist light surrounding her—the very Buddhist Dharma that Dharma Master Hongzhen had used to influence Li Kuanghua’s mind.

A massive golden grinding disk floated behind Li Kuanghua.

The disk was covered in golden light, but as demonic energy emerged from within Li Kuanghua’s Soul Sea, ink-black hues surfaced on the disk.

The demonic energy was eroding the Buddhist power.

Bodhisattva Prowess was subsequently affected as well.

Wisps of demonic energy also flowed from the disk, and tentacles began to appear on the disk, as well as on the body of the Buddha statue.

“Squelch!”

With a soft sound, flesh and blood splattered from beneath the left arm of the Bodhisattva Prowess statue, and a mangled, bloody hand burst out from the Bodhisattva statue.

The splattering flesh and blood landed on the protective Buddhist light of the Dusheng Bodhisattva statue, making a sizzling “hiss” sound.

“Squelch!”

Another hand burst out from beneath the right arm.

Demonic energy gradually attached itself to the entire Buddha statue, causing the body of the Bodhisattva Prowess statue to undergo a transformation.

Demonic patterns began to spread across the statue’s yellow garments and body.

The Buddha statue’s face turned pale and gradually twisted into a hideous expression, grinning fiercely at Dharma Master Hongzhen.

“Jie jie jie jie jie!”

The piercing laughter echoed throughout the entire Dusheng Nunnery.

Demonic energy and Buddhist Dharma clashed, causing the cloudy sky to be filled with dark, gloomy clouds.

The levitating Li Kuanghua wore a calm expression.

Behind her, the tentacles of the Buddha-Demon Disk swayed like smoke blown by the wind.

At this moment, the Spiritual power of both her and the Bodhisattva Prowess statue was rapidly climbing!

At this moment, Dharma Master Hongzhen understood: Li Kuanghua had never turned toward the Buddha.

Instead… the demonic nature within her body was too heaven-defying, to the point where she herself couldn’t suppress it.

If she had recklessly broken through to the Void Refinement realm using that monstrous demonic nature, she would likely have lost her true self, reduced to a demon driven entirely by desire and murderous intent.

To suppress the demonic nature, she needed Buddhist Dharma.

The Buddha-Demon Disk behind her was a rare spiritual item that allowed these two conflicting forms of Spiritual power to contend with each other.

By merging the two, she was forging a Void Refinement realm that integrated both Buddha and Demon into one body.

Her Spiritual power was still climbing. As the demonic energy entered her body, the two laws surged in the cloudy sky.

Under the power of the flesh and blood of many experts stored within the Buddha-Demon Disk, combined with the Buddhist Dao will of the Dusheng Nunnery accumulated over tens of thousands of years, Li Kuanghua had already reached the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm!

“Impossible!”

Dharma Master Hongzhen’s expression changed. She drove her Buddha statue.

The Dusheng Bodhisattva statue held a branch in its right hand, dipped it into the Buddhist Dao spiritual liquid of the purifying vase, and sprinkled it toward the Bodhisattva Prowess statue.

She was already at the Half-Step Body Integration realm and cultivated the Dao of “Tranquility.”

Within this Dao were techniques that could force people to cease fighting, as well as render their minds free of stray thoughts so they could be manipulated by her.

The sprinkled spiritual liquid was also her Buddhist Dharma, “Purifying the World.”

Anyone tainted by this spiritual liquid would be forced to obey her commands, just like the numb nuns throughout the entire Dusheng Nunnery.

But…

Both Li Kuanghua and Bodhisattva Prowess were staring at her with bizarre expressions, mocking her.

“Wrong, it is possible!”

Feeling the fusion of Buddha and Demon, Li Kuanghua recalled the repetitive “Wrongs” from when she cultivated with Dharma Master Hongzhen.

Gazing at the other party with the same gentle expression Dharma Master Hongzhen had worn back then, she spoke in a soft and harmonious whisper:

“This disciple must thank you.

The True Buddhist Mantra of Deliverance for Self and Sentient Beings has been disrupting my mind day and night.

After decades of tempering my heart with Buddhist Dharma, I can’t say for sure about other Daoist methods, but a Dao like yours that affects the mind can forget about harming my divine soul in the slightest.”

“Do you truly think that just because you’ve broken through to the Void Refinement realm, you can fight me?”

Dharma Master Hongzhen’s expression turned ugly; her Buddhist Dharma was useless against Li Kuanghua!

“Wrong again,” Li Kuanghua said softly. “It’s not what I think, it’s that I am going to beat you to a pulp!”

As her voice fell, the tentacles of the Buddha-Demon Disk and Bodhisattva Prowess shot toward Dharma Master Hongzhen with killing intent!

“Squelch! Squelch!”

From the Bodhisattva Prowess statue, which was now crawling with demonic patterns, two more arms burst forth, making it increasingly hideous and terrifying.

The Buddha-Demon Disk behind Li Kuanghua spun rapidly, the gold and ink-black colors each taking up half. As it spun, the two merged, forming a deep, dark hue of gold.

This bronze-like luster gradually emanated an ancient aura amidst the spinning.

The fusion of Buddha and Demon filled Li Kuanghua’s petite, “little bean” figure with an overwhelming sense of oppression. Mysterious and majestic.

“You…” With just a single collision, the Dusheng Bodhisattva was actually forced to retreat this time.

Dharma Master Hongzhen’s face was pale.

The Buddhist Dharma she was so proud of was actually perfectly countered by Li Kuanghua’s Buddha-Demon fused Dharmakaya and techniques.

She was unable to influence Li Kuanghua’s mind, and the physical body of Bodhisattva Prowess was growing at an extremely rapid pace, impossible to suppress!

“Wrong again!” Li Kuanghua remained gentle. “You shouldn’t call me ‘you’. The people of the world should all be addressed as ‘all living beings’. This is what you taught.”

“…”

Dharma Master Hongzhen’s eyes darted around, pondering a method to deal with Li Kuanghua, and she simply remained silent.

“Still wrong.”

Li Kuanghua finally roared and charged forward with killing intent.

“You aren’t saying a word, plotting wicked ideas. Since you are a Bodhisattva, why are you harboring wicked intentions?”

“You might as well stop liberating the world. I’ll be the one to grant you ‘liberation,’ you fake Bodhisattva.”

Demonic energy.

Monstrous and heaven-shaking!

In the cloudy sky of Shadowfell Prefecture, the three Body Integration realm experts outside were utilizing their Spiritual power to break the lotus statue of the Dusheng Nunnery.

Originally, the lotus was resisting the Spiritual power of the three.

They had already calculated that even if it took a couple of years, they would slowly deplete the foundation of the Dusheng Nunnery.

They had long lifespans, and in this situation of catching a turtle in a jar, they were in no hurry to break the lotus statue.

Allowing their subordinates to set up array formations was the truly foolproof plan.

However, after only one day had passed, the originally brilliantly shining Buddhist light of the lotus let out a “crack,” revealing fissures.

The three couldn’t help but exchange a glance, all seeing the doubt in each other’s eyes.

“Why has the Dusheng Nunnery cracked?”

Wenren Jiuyue looked at Zhao Guang with a strange expression.

Zhao Guang was the strongest here, and he somewhat suspected that Zhao Guang had secretly increased his Spiritual power.

But thinking about it, that wasn’t right either; Zhao Guang was a very despicable person.

“What are you looking at me for?” Zhao Guang glared at Wenren Jiuyue.

He was equally puzzled, but as he probed the situation inside the Dusheng Nunnery, he felt the grand array gradually weakening.

He even sensed the Buddhist power of the Dusheng Nunnery bursting out from the cracks.

The Buddhist Dharma, which should have been peaceful, was somewhat violent.

His expression immediately turned solemn.

“You two be careful. When things are out of the ordinary, there must be a demon at work.

The Dusheng Nunnery will absolutely not wait around to be slaughtered.

The Demoness Dairou was able to lead the entire Dusheng Nunnery to secretly cultivate Buddhist Dharma for many years without exposing themselves; she cannot be underestimated.”

“Mhm.”

With a flaw appearing in the Dusheng Nunnery’s lotus, the three grew increasingly cautious.

In a short span of time, they had already deduced hundreds of traps the Dusheng Nunnery might have set, as well as their various methods of escape.

The group’s expressions became increasingly grim.

“Careful!”

Right at this moment, Daoist Qinghe of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion suddenly let out a cold shout.

An array disk floated into the air, and over a dozen cultivators of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion formed hand seals, laying down a barrier above the cloudy sky.

Daoist techniques materialized on Daoist Qinghe’s array disk, and the pressure of heaven and earth descended.

A long river appeared above the cloudy sky, and a dragon’s roar emanated from within the river!

Zhao Guang and Wenren Jiuyue both wore solemn expressions, already unleashing their Daoist techniques.

“Boom!”

Under the group’s vigilant watch, they saw a gap tear open in the lotus statue.

The golden light of Buddhist power suddenly burst forth, and at the same time, two auras emerged from within.

“The people of the Dusheng Nunnery are trying to escape!”

A sky full of techniques rained down toward the lotus.

But Zhao Guang froze. A drop of cold sweat rolling down his forehead, he shouted, “Wait! Everyone, stop!”

The brilliance of Spiritual power filled the cloudy sky. Among the two auras emerging from within, Zhao Guang sensed an extremely familiar one.

That was precisely the petty thief who had snatched the Three Corpses of Lingtian right in front of him at the Grand Tower back then!

“Boom!”

Spiritual power blasted out, but how could the people present catch someone that even Zhao Guang couldn’t catch back then?

Spatial laws flashed past the lotus statue, and Zhao Guang even heard a cursed voice.

“Motherfucker, and they call themselves Body Integration realm experts! Taking a whole day to break a shitty array and still can’t find anyone. What the hell are they even doing?!”

“Oh no, Perfected Qinghe, they escaped from our barrier!”

A Void Refinement cultivator cried out in shock. Two long spears flashed past like streams of light, and spatial Spiritual power pierced through the barrier. Time seemed to stop in this brief instant, and those two people vanished instantly.

Spiritual power was still booming, and the grand array thoroughly enveloped the cloudy sky. The two had escaped, but the lotus statue remained, and the Dusheng Nunnery remained.

The torn gap left the entire aura of the Dusheng Nunnery completely exposed, allowing everything inside to enter their view.

“Those two people were…” Perfected Qinghe had already reacted.

When Zhao Guang told them to stop just now, it seemed those two had… broken through the Dusheng Nunnery’s array formation from the inside out!

“Why are you asking me? How should I know?” Zhao Guang gritted his teeth, his head covered in cold sweat as he used his divine soul to sense the Dusheng Nunnery.

Inside the Dusheng Nunnery’s Grotto-Heaven Paradise, it was a total mess.

The Dharma Masters of the Dusheng Nunnery and the Demoness Dairou had all summoned their Bodhisattva statues and experienced a fierce battle.

Among them, Nun Dairou’s face was like frost and snow, terrifyingly cold.

Dharma Master Hongdan was shivering, while Dharma Master Hongzhen’s right cheek was entirely red, her breathing unstable.

“They look like… they’ve been bullied.” Wenren Jiuyue blinked his eyes blankly.

He looked at Zhao Guang, then at Perfected Qinghe, wanting to glean something from their faces.

After all, the despicability and shamelessness of these two were famous in the circles of the Imperial Capital’s almighty experts.

“What are you standing around for? Charge in and save the Crown Prince!”

Zhao Guang roared furiously, taking advantage of the breached grand array of the Dusheng Nunnery to charge inside.

He gritted his teeth. His guess had been absolutely right. The people surnamed Li were truly up to no good.

He suspected that this trip, just like the great battle at the Mountain of Esoteric Stratagems back then, was another instance of falling into the Li Clan’s trap.

Especially that elusive figure in black mist—shameless and despicable to the extreme!
