Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

The black clouds pressed heavily, accumulating like a thick layer of ink.

The more the clouds churned, the more frequently thunder and lightning appeared. The moisture in the clouds tirelessly expanded, and the gray-black shadows extended and enveloped the sky and land.

The atmosphere had become extremely heavy, and even the air seemed to be oppressed.

Jiang Dali could vaguely sense a crisis causing his spirit to feel anxious, hidden behind layers of space, as if an immense and terrifying will was on the brink of awakening, locking onto him.

Heavenly Will!

Or rather, the Fallen Heaven’s Will that had already born resentment against him.

Though his previous attack had shattered Heaven’s Punishment, it also caused the Fallen Heaven’s Will to give rise to resentment, showing signs of awakening.

At this moment, with the Mud Buddha continuously revealing the Heavenly Mechanism, a true Heaven’s Punishment might soon arrive, potentially bringing with it the attack of the entire Heavenly Will.

By now, he was quite clear that, whether it was the Fallen Heaven’s Will or the normal Heavenly Will, most of the time, they remained in a dormant state. This dormant state might be due to the influence of the Emperor, which was the main reason the Emperor had been in seclusion for over four hundred years.

Perhaps the Emperor chose to go into seclusion for more than four hundred years because he foresaw some terrible crisis, thus resolutely entrusting the Jiangshan Society to the Regent King, shouldering a piece of heaven by himself, possibly trying to delay the ongoing process of the world’s fall.

Whether or not his speculations were true, it indirectly indicated that the Fallen Heaven’s Will and the normal Heavenly Will were entirely one entity. When he struck with all his might, regardless of hitting the ’fallen’ or ’normal’, it would be perceived as a challenge to the entire Heavenly Will.

This is like the good and evil sides of a person being indistinguishable; unless one, like Dharma, slashes away the evil thoughts letting good and evil stand independently, good and evil remain a whole, and hitting any part means hitting the whole.

Jiang Dali took a deep breath, to be safe, he first entered the Primordial State, and said to the Mud Buddha in the cave, ”Continue speaking. Since only by reuniting the Four Spirits can we cleanse the Fallen Heaven and Earth Intent within Sky, then how do we reunite the Four Spirits? As everyone knows, the Dragon Turtle and the Phoenix have been dead for many years now. How can these two naturally born Divine Beasts be resurrected...?”

Beside him, Xiao Sanxiao was equally shaken.

The blood of the Dragon Turtle now flowed within him, and the words of the Mud Buddha seemed to involuntarily evoke memories of ancient happenings from four thousand years ago.

Due to the overly long passage of time and because of the special nature of his lifespan and cultivation techniques, his memories remained sealed for a long period unless triggered by a certain special message, avoiding any burden on his brain and emotions.

Now, with the Mud Buddha suddenly mentioning the ancient death of the Dragon Turtle from exhaustion, it seemed to stimulate those long-sealed memory fragments in his mind...

It was a dark age long ago, let alone the Holy Dynasty era, even during the Hundred Countries War periods hadn’t opened. Ancient human clans, due to the ambiguity of the intent of writing, gave birth to Demon Gods of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, with differing ideologies of defying or aligning with heaven, leading to terrifying battles that swept across heaven and earth.

Eventually, it completely angered Heaven... faintly remembering, on that day the heaven and earth upheaved, the wind roared, thunder erupted, piercing the clouds with flying fire, mist obscured the sun and moon, the earth covered, it seemed as if the sky suddenly collapsed, endless dark clouds accompanied by lightning and meteorites crashed down, causing the earth to crack and sink, mountains and rivers to topple and crush.

The Four Spirits guarding the four corners of the earth roared out in unison, transforming into four star clusters at the corners of the world, forming a strong barrier, protecting all living beings.

However, the violent earthquake caused the towering Buzhou Mountain to collapse, and the countless beings residing under Buzhou Mountain, were about to face a life-and-death catastrophe.

In that critical moment, the massive Dragon Turtle charged out of the barrier, with its body holding up against the collapsing and crushing Buzhou Mountain, until all creatures below the mountain safely evacuated into the barrier, and finally, due to excessive loss of Essence Blood from its wounds, the Dragon Turtle exhausted itself to death...

And beneath the ruins in the blood pool, the cry of an infant faintly awakened the consciousness of the Dragon Turtle in its dying moments.

In the dim, murky apocalypse devoid of daylight, it strained to open its weary pupils, reflecting the infant, seemingly the last light and hope in this dark world... It used its last strength to drive its almost dissipating Dragon Turtle Soul into the crying infant’s body below.

Like a sea of blood usually corrosive to ordinary creatures, when submerging the infant, a miraculous scene occurred.

The boundless Blood Sea surged into a vivid red glow of overwhelming Blood Qi Energy, forming blood cocoons wrapping the infant within.

The Dragon Turtle’s corpse gradually petrified, cracking and disintegrating into dust, completely engulfing the blood cocoons...

The sealed memory fragments thus formed scenes, flashing rapidly through Xiao Sanxiao’s mind, unknown when, tears streamed down his face, sobbing uncontrollably.

All these images glimpsed within the memory, though seemingly lengthy, were actually just a breath or two of time.

Jiang Dali, upon asking the Mud Buddha how to reunite the Four Spirits, found that the old man Xiao Sanxiao was already sobbing uncontrollably, leaving him astonished.

The Mud Buddha sighed, ”The greatest sound is silence, and boundless love. To reunite the Four Spirits, it is with the power of love alone!”

Jiang Dali was dumbfounded.

How could this link to love?

The legend of infinite love?

”Speak plainly, don’t make it sound so esoteric!” Jiang Dali frowned and said coldly.

The Mud Buddha said, ”It means sacrifice, sacrifice oneself, fulfilling others, saving the entire world, this is the power of boundless love!”

Jiang Dali narrowed his eyes, ”Sacrifice whom?”

He was moved, involuntarily looking at the tear-streaked face of Xiao Sanxiao beside him.

”That’s right... it is sacrificing this old man.”

Xiao Sanxiao laughed and cried, as if very open-minded, and said casually, ”Old man, not only does the Dragon Turtle’s essence blood flow within me, but even in the depths of my soul, remnants of the Dragon Turtle’s soul reside. If it weren’t for the Dragon Turtle, this old man might have died when I was just an infant.”

He solemnly looked at Jiang Dali and said seriously, ”A life for a life!

The Dragon Turtle once gave this old man a life, allowing this wretched old life to muddle through for four thousand years. But still, there are so many unfortunate events, beyond my control, that make this old man feel ashamed.

This old man is now willing to return a life to the Dragon Turtle, sacrifice myself to help revive the Dragon Turtle, and reunite the Four Spirits.”

As he finished speaking, the sky was filled with lightning and thunder, and suddenly a series of raindrops as large as dragon eyes fell with a crackling sound, washing away the tear streaks on his face.

Jiang Dali’s brows furrowed under the lightning, and he said in a deep and solemn voice, ”Senior, I admire your sincere spirit of sacrifice! However, I fear reviving the Dragon Turtle is not so simple, it’s not something you can do just because you want to. Besides, even if the Dragon Turtle is revived, what about the Phoenix?”

As he spoke, a flash of inspiration hit his mind, involuntarily thinking of Emperor Xu Fu, thinking of Qin Shi Huang who took away the remnants of the Phoenix Essence Blood, thinking of the Fake Phoenix who inherited part of the Phoenix Bloodline...

Could it be that the events of this world have long been predestined in the unseen? Is it that the affairs of this world inherently possess potential connections, waiting for people to discover?

The spirit pond was stirred by a sudden heavy rain, creating ring upon ring of water mist, as the hoarse voice of the Mud Buddha sounded, ”Master of Jiang Village, in fact, you are the person most deeply intertwined with the Four Spirits in the world. Surely, you already have the answer in your heart now.

To resurrect the Dragon Turtle and the Fire Phoenix, it requires the power of love, it requires sacrifice. Besides this, separate vessels are needed. The shattered corpse of the Dragon Turtle after its death served as a vessel, later forming into the turtle and snake-shaped mountain ranges...”

”The turtle and snake-shaped mountains?”

Jiang Dali’s body quivered, and a sudden flash of inspiration hit his mind, instantly producing an answer—Wudang Mountain, Turtle and Snake Mountain, Emperor Zhenwu, Zhang Sanfeng...

”After the Fire Phoenix’s death, apart from its bloodline descendants, there is a Phoenix Soul Pendant, and that Phoenix Blood Pendant is now in... the Emperor’s Treasure Vault...”

Crack! —

An astonishing streak of lightning abruptly interrupted the Mud Buddha’s words.

The oppressive thunder in the air seemed to have accumulated enough power, rushing through like a huge purple serpent of lightning, shaking the mountains and ground, as the thunder’s power spread into countless dot-like and root-like arcs of electricity through the sky, spreading in all directions, instantly igniting several dozen large trees in flames.

Almost at the moment the thunderbolt struck down, Jiang Dali’s towering figure had already plunged into the Ten Thousand Year Tears Spring in the pool.

Crash! —

The purple lightning made contact with the pool’s surface instantly, like conducting electricity, lighting up the entire Spiritual Spring Pond water with a brilliant clarity, like a dazzling crystal brimming with scorching energy.

”Master of Jiang Village!”

Xiao Sanxiao was shocked, his whole body stood on end with the hair-raising electric power filling the surroundings.

At this moment, the water in the Tear Spring dimmed slightly.

A large mass of electrified water surged, as Jiang Dali emerged from the water, exuding tremendous suction power, clutching the extremely weak Mud Buddha in his arms. The strong lightning energy had been absorbed and transformed by him, no longer posing a threat, though his clothes were all scorched.

”Pfft—”

With a flip, Jiang Dali tumbled onto the slightly static charred ground, releasing the absorbed currents with a burst of suction from his feet before putting the Mud Buddha down.

At this point, the Mud Buddha no longer had the once dignified and compassionate look, but was instead covered face and body with pustules, his eyes seemed cloudy and terrifying like pus, his whole being looking more like a puddle of pus, slumped on the ground gasping, even unable to sit steadily.

”Thank you...”

The Mud Buddha croaked out in a hoarse tone, his face trembled and moved, his cloudy eyes looking towards Jiang Dali.

”The one who should be thanking is me. It seems, indeed, you cannot answer another question. Otherwise, even with me present, you would surely have died under Heaven’s Punishment.”

Jiang Dali glanced at the Mud Buddha, then solemnly looked at the gloomy clouds flickering with thunder in the heavenly vault, that terrifying oppressive willful force beyond time and space growing more agitated, vast and icy, bringing a tingling pressure down his spine.

If he continues to provoke, Heavenly Will is bound to awaken, and then he might attempt to break through the realm once more, but the Mud Buddha absolutely wouldn’t survive.

But this time, the questions that needed to be asked have been made clear, he now knows what to do...

One more attempt to break through the realm, but the Mud Buddha absolutely wouldn’t survive.

But this time, the questions that needed to be asked have been made clear, he now knows what to do...

(Today’s extra Chapter is here, ask for monthly tickets! The more monthly tickets, the earlier the update tomorrow, maybe even a midnight update! By the way, someone still seems confused? Cang Jie inventing characters happened before the Holy Dynasty oh, the Dragon Turtle’s death was also before the Holy Dynasty! So claiming what Cang Jie could do, the Holy Dynasty could too, this statement I temporarily don’t understand what it means, how could the Holy Dynasty do what happened during Emperor Huang’s period?)
