Just a Useful Pawn in the Stain Sect

Chapter 856: Chapter 851: Bow Drawn Like a Full Moon, Arrow Shot at the Pure Land!

Profound Spirit Realm.

Surrounding the half-dead Supreme Venerable of the Profound Spirit Realm, Bao Lian Hidden Buddha frowned deeply. The piercing pain between her eyebrows made it impossible for her to steady her Heart Spirit.

”What happened? Could this Outer Dao Realm Heaven possibly still possess the means to threaten us? Impossible,” she murmured.

On the other side, Bhumba Bodhisattva shook her head decisively before hesitating. ”Could it be that the Demons of the Stain Sect are setting a trap, wanting to take this opportunity to ambush us?”

Hearing this, Bao Lian Hidden Buddha pondered for a moment and gave a slight nod. ”Indeed. This place is Beyond the Heavens, after all. If Fei Xue, Hai Guang, and Qi Luo were to attack simultaneously, I would truly be somewhat outmatched. However, it matters not. Before coming here, I had already linked myself to the Pure Land. Even if I am killed, my soul won’t be completely shattered.”

”Then I am relieved,” Bhumba Bodhisattva replied.

Venerable Victory Treasure Pestle Bodhisattva remained silent on the other side.

He wondered, ”What about me?”

As the third Bodhisattva of the Pure Land, he always felt the other two formed their own little clique. Even though it was a Pure Land of three, he didn’t seem to have a name.

Fortunately, he was used to it. At worst, he would just run away a bit faster when trouble arose. In necessary situations, he would simply use the other two Bodhisattvas as meat shields. They could undergo infinite Resurrection anyway. As long as he was careful, he wouldn’t die. After all, it wasn’t like someone would be bored enough to specifically target him for Killing, right?

At this thought, he quietly stepped back a few paces. Only by doing so could he ensure that if they really encountered an ambush, he could flee back to the Pure Land at top speed without having to worry about his life being in danger.

His petty actions were noticed by the other two Bodhisattvas.

However, Bao Lian Hidden Buddha did not care much. Although she said they should be careful, she didn’t truly believe the Stain Sect would deploy all their forces for an ambush.

As for the crisis-sensing prickle between her eyebrows... To be honest, as an Immortal Pivot True Monarch, she had encountered similar situations seven or eight times, if not ten. Calling it dangerous didn’t mean it was a rare occurrence.

”We will face whatever comes our way,” Bao Lian Hidden Buddha murmured, taking a deep breath.

The Buddha Light shone brilliantly behind her, illuminating a vast Buddha Country. Zen chants filled the sky—it was exactly the blissful scene of the Pure Land.

”Amitabha!”

With a single utterance of the Buddha’s Name, the Three Bodhisattvas cast aside their concerns. They launched a combined attack, planning to thoroughly dispose of the Profound Spirit Realm and then engage in Refining the Fruit within it to empower themselves.

BUZZ!

At this moment, all the Living Creatures of the Profound Spirit Realm seemed to hear the tragic cry of the Outer Realm. Intertwined with it was an intense summons, spreading the howling imagery of a plea for help.

Seeing this, the already dying Supreme Venerable of the Profound Spirit Realm couldn’t help but smile bitterly. ”Calling for help... If you ask me, it’s better not to let that guy come. Otherwise, it’s just adding another sacrifice. There’s no need for that. Besides, he might already be beaten half-to-death in the Star Palace right now...”

Before his voice could fade, a deafening RUMBLE resonated.

In an instant, a Qi trace suddenly emerged, like a torch lit in the darkness. Its brilliant flames illuminated the Sea of Light in the blink of an eye.

”...Who!?”

Not only the Three Pure Land Bodhisattvas, but all the Perfected Lords within the Immortal Pivot felt it in their hearts at this moment. One after another, they raised their heads and looked toward the direction Beyond the Heavens.

In the Sea of Suffering.

At this moment, Lü Yang had completely liberated his Dharma Body, transforming into a towering giant whose shoulders carried the sun and moon. Holding a longbow, he silently gazed at the Current World’s Immortal Pivot.

RUMBLE!

In a flash, the winds and clouds within the Immortal Pivot changed color. As if sensing the intent in Lü Yang’s gaze, countless anomalies spawned out of thin air, and the celestial phenomena altered completely.

This was the current Lü Yang. He was only one step away from becoming a Great Perfected Lord, having nearly reached the Peak of the Middle Stage of Golden Core. Even a single glance from him possessed an extremely high Position. To the Outer Realm, this was an indescribable weight. If it were a Little Realm Heaven, there would even be a risk of it collapsing right now!

”Phew...” Lü Yang slowly exhaled.

For a moment, waves also surged across the Sea of Suffering. Once his breath was fully expelled, he gently placed his hand on the bowstring.

TWANG!

With an explosive sound, the bow was drawn into a full moon! At this moment, Lü Yang felt all his strength being siphoned away by the longbow, ultimately igniting a beam of Splendid Light at the fingertips resting on the bow.

It was a flare of light soaring like fire, infused with Lü Yang’s entire Mighty Power. At the same time, it drew upon the water of the Sea of Suffering, transforming it into streaks of Illusionary Colors that converged, steamed, and blended into a single hue. Finally, it condensed into a dazzlingly brilliant, pure-white arrow resting upon the bowstring.

Up to this point, there was nothing special. Although it was very strong, it was merely the standard of Lü Yang attacking with his full strength—until a Fruit leaped out with a throb, transforming into a golden lightning glow that blessed the arrow.

Fruit of Divine-Empyrean Thunder!

The compatibility between this Dao Fruit and the Sun-Shooting Bow was incredibly high. As it activated now, three imageries pushed the Profound Mysterious nature of the arrow a step further.

Summoning searched for the enemy.

Ying Yuan gathered momentum.

Manifestation ensured that once the arrow was fired, it would directly lock onto the target through the result of Summoning, bypassing all intermediate processes.

For this reason, Lü Yang had deliberately released his Killing intent. After all, only by making the targets feel the crisis he brought and rendering them unable to forget him could the Summoning of the Fruit of Divine-Empyrean Thunder take effect.

CLINK...

The arrow at his fingertips trembled slightly. Lü Yang calmed his mind and steadied his breath, continuing to gather momentum and allowing the lightning to accumulate while sensing the targets’ location.

At the same time, the nurturing Profound Mysterious ability of the Fruit of River-Sand Gold, Gradual Formation, was also executed by him, further enhancing the arrow’s power.

Finally, his eyes lit up slightly.

”Found you...”

BANG!

Before his voice could fade, the arrow left the string. The howling Divine Light instantly galloped through the Sea of Suffering. The water of endless anomalies obediently followed wherever the arrow passed.

During this process, the Sun-Shooting Bow in Lü Yang’s hand continuously cracked and shattered. At the very end, at the instant the Sun-Shooting Bow completely exploded, the accumulated water of the Sea of Suffering within the arrow also reached its limit, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Almost simultaneously, within the Current World.

Bao Lian Hidden Buddha, who had originally been full of confidence, believing she could handle any crisis, instantly experienced a drastic change in her beautiful expression, her pupils shrinking abruptly.

”Oh no...!”

This was the final sentence spoken by Bao Lian Hidden Buddha in her life.

The next second, the arrow’s light flashed and vanished. Like thunder suddenly appearing in an endless dark night, it passed through the Golden Body Dharma Appearance she had manifested with lightning speed. The Golden Body shattered with a boom.

Next was Bhumba Bodhisattva. She fared even worse; she wasn’t even struck directly by the thunder. Merely the radiated lightning shattered her.

In a flash, across the Immortal Pivot Land, countless Living Creatures raised their heads to look at Heaven, only to see a sky-filling shade of crimson splashing across the canopy. Immediately following that were the falling fragments of the two Bodhisattvas’ Golden Bodies, transforming into countless blazing meteors that caused Heaven and Earth to lose their light, leaving only a dim gloom in sight!

However, this was not the end.

Because at the exact moment Bao Lian Hidden Buddha spoke, the already-prepared Venerable Victory Treasure Pestle Bodhisattva moved with divine speed, beating them to the punch and returning to the Pure Land.

But before he could heave a sigh of relief...

RUMBLE!

The arrow’s light followed him like a shadow. He subconsciously raised his head, instantly falling into a dazed bewilderment, not knowing what to do.

SPLASH!

At this moment, almost all the Perfected Lords of the Immortal Pivot subconsciously stood up, their gazes locked onto the wondrous spectacle currently hanging above the Pure Land in the West.

Looking as far as the eye could see, directly above the West, the Sea of Suffering split open. The water of the Sea of Suffering, which only an extremely few people could see in the past, poured out. Yet, it converged into a world-shocking streak of lightning, tearing apart the Pure Land with an unrivaled posture before violently crashing down onto Venerable Victory Treasure Pestle Bodhisattva!
