Chapter 1012 -654 Water Poison (Thank you, Wood White Gold Jade boss for the alliance~)_2

”Who is the despicable villain that dares to launch a stealth attack?”

His vision obscured, he swept the area with his Divine Sense, but all around was a void of whiteness, save for the raging Spiritual Power of Gu Changhuai. There were no traces of any other Cultivators.

”No one?”

Fire Buddha’s heart shuddered.

Gu Changhuai’s gaze also became sharp, and he felt a chill in his heart.

That Taoist Skill just now… was it the Gold Light Skill?

Mo Hua?

Gu Changhuai gently swept his Divine Sense and indeed found, in a corner, a vague and sneaky little figure.

He had the Divine Sense of a Golden Core, but could only make out an outline.

It seemed unbelievable to Gu Changhuai.

This child…

He can use the Gold Light Skill too?

And the timing of his attack was… too perfect…

Gu Changhuai was taken aback, then realized the evil Qi around Fire Buddha had dissipated, and he understood Mo Hua’s intention.

Gu Changhuai’s gaze darkened, and without hesitation, he directly manipulated the Spell, continuing his assault on Fire Buddha.

In this evenly matched battle, any slight variable could change the outcome.

Now with Mo Hua’s assistance, the balance was broken. The battle-hardened Gu Changhuai didn’t need to say more; he knew what to do next.

Moreover, only by completely suppressing Fire Buddha could Mo Hua be safer.

Otherwise, with Mo Hua’s small frame, if Fire Buddha were to locate him, just a slight impact from a Spell could mean more harm than good…

With this thought, Gu Changhuai’s aura surged, and Wind Blades flew like a shower of arrows, piercing through the air.

Fire Buddha suddenly felt the pressure double.

He extended his Divine Sense to find the “sinister villain” who had ambushed him, but Gu Changhuai, with his ruthless attacks, forced him to hastily counter and didn’t allow him a moment’s distraction to deal with Mo Hua.

Mo Hua nodded.

As expected of Uncle Gu, without needing to speak, you knew what to do.

Fire Buddha’s eyes burned with pain.

Although relying on his high Cultivation and profound Spiritual Power for quick flesh regeneration, he soon regained his sight; he could no longer concentrate evil Qi with his eyes.

As soon as he gathered evil Qi, his eyes would sting like they were being pricked with needles.

And…

He would be ambushed!

Whenever his gaze focused to gather evil Qi, as if cursed, a beam of gold light would come and sting his eyes.

”Damn it!”

Anger surged within Fire Buddha.

Without the evil Qi, Gu Changhuai had one less thing to worry about, and he himself was at a disadvantage.

But the fight could still go on…

In a life-and-death battle, fortunes could turn in the blink of an eye, and no one could predict the victor until the last moment.

Fire Buddha’s killing intent flared again.

He wanted to kill Gu Changhuai.

Even if he couldn’t kill Gu Changhuai, he had to slaughter the “sinister villain” hiding in the shadows.

His Spell wasn’t powerful; he must be at the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Unsure how he was hiding, but as long as he showed himself, he would be burnt to ash by falling fire, undoubtedly a dead man!

Fire Buddha sneered.

Then he continued his fight with Gu Changhuai.

But as the battle went on, Fire Buddha realized something was wrong.

There were other Spells…

Not just the Gold Light Skill, but also the Water Prison Technique, Quicksand Skill, and other various Five Elements Spells, all swift and precise, like threading a needle, “backstabbing” him.

These Spells weren’t powerful and were limited in their effects due to their low grade.

But limited as they might be, they still took effect.

Whenever he tried to dodge or counter Gu Changhuai’s Spells, these “annoying” Spells would hold him back.

Fire Buddha was exasperated, cursing silently in his heart.

What kind of despicable person was this?

Not learning proper Spells, but instead mastering all sorts of annoying tricks…

”Fortunately, these Spells are low-grade and not much of a threat, otherwise

Fire Buddha thought but suddenly felt a sinking feeling beneath his feet, and the ground shook.

He looked down and his pupils constricted.

Beneath his feet, a pool of ink had appeared out of nowhere, seeped into the ground, and began to outline lines of earthy gray Patterns, forming a…

Formation?!

Fire Buddha was incredulous.

Where did this Formation come from?!

The ground had been clear just moments ago; how had a Formation suddenly appeared?

It was as if a ghost had been Drawing the Formation…

And judging by these Formation Patterns… a Second Grade, Middle-level Formation?

Fire Buddha’s heart sank.

A Second Grade, Middle-level Formation could threaten a Cultivator in the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Just as he thought to employ his movement technique to escape the Formation, a flash of gray light appeared beneath his feet, Spiritual Power flowed rapidly, and in an instant, the Formation activated. The ground rose into a cage, trapping Fire Buddha where he stood.

Bagu Mountain Trapping Formation!

This Trapping Formation could hold a Cultivator in the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, and although the control duration would be shortened, it was enough to restrain him for five or six breaths.

At that moment, Gu Changhuai seized the opportunity, spurred his Spiritual Power, and launched hundreds of Wind Blades, like a violent storm, bombarding Fire Buddha.

Fire Buddha could only brace himself, spread his Kasaya, and condense it into a “fire wall.”

Wind Blades collided with the fire wall, creating bursts of Spiritual Power, rising and falling.

But there were too many Wind Blades, and the fire wall couldn’t withstand them.

After a short moment, the incessant Wind Blades shattered the fire wall, and the remaining blades engulfed Fire Buddha.

Where the Wind Blades struck, rocks shattered, and smoke billowed.

As the dust cleared, Fire Buddha’s form was revealed.

He looked utterly disheveled, his Kasaya covered in many more slashes, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, but his energy hadn’t weakened too much.

Seeing this, Mo Hua couldn’t help but sigh inwardly:

”This Fire Buddha is really tough

With profound Evil Power and a strong defense from the Kasaya…

After fighting for so long, he still hadn’t met his demise.

Fire Buddha spat out a mouthful of blood disdainfully and sneered sinisterly:

”Gu Changhuai, I didn’t expect you to find help.”

Gu Changhuai did not respond.
