336: Six-character mantra

Boom!

The giant sword unleashed its power, and the grand formation shattered with a loud bang!

The aftermath of the shattered formation only caused the giant sword to pause for a moment. The next instant, it pierced directly towards the Spirit Mountain!

Sand and stones flew, winds wildly swirled, the sky collapsed, the earth cracked, and water flowed backward!

Streaks of golden light shot outwards!

These streaks of light were precisely the fleeing Disciples and Elders!

With this one strike, the Spirit Mountain collapsed!

Revealing the Grotto-Heaven and Blessed Land hidden within the Spirit Mountain!

Within the Grotto-Heaven, seven Thunder Calamity Realm cultivators, four Fire Calamity Realm cultivators, and one Wind Calamity Realm cultivator were neatly arranged!

Sun Wuchen was among them!

Looking at the tragic state of the Spirit Mountain at this moment, the eyes of the Undergoing Tribulation cultivators were filled with rage!

“Is this your confidence in protecting Sun Wuchen?”

“Not enough!”

Gu Liangyuan notched an arrow. As he spoke, the Qiongqi Bone Arrow shot straight towards Sun Wuchen!

As his voice fell, the arrow was already less than three zhang from Sun Wuchen.

Although Sun Wuchen reacted extremely quickly and retreated in a hurry, the Qiongqi Bone Arrow was even faster.

Clang!

The Bone Arrow struck him squarely in the chest, but the situation Gu Liangyuan had imagined, where Sun Wuchen would be pierced through, did not happen.

Instead, Sun Wuchen was firmly enveloped by a golden bell illusion.

The golden bell spun wildly, and when the Bone Arrow struck it, its trajectory was forcibly altered, sending it flying elsewhere.

“I said it’s enough!”

The white-robed old monk from the Wind Calamity Realm lifted Sun Wuchen and the bronze bell with one hand, about to say more, when he saw Gu Liangyuan suddenly raise his hand:

“Don’t talk, your leg will hurt.”

The old monk was momentarily confused, what does my talking have to do with my leg?

“Ah!”

The next moment, the old monk leaped dozens of zhang, his intact right leg now empty.

Looking down, a small cat-like beast with blood-red eyes was tearing at a large leg.

This beast was precisely the manifestation of the Qiongqi Primordial Spirit!

Qiongqi is not only a synonym for Slaughter but also a symbol of ferocity, treachery, and cunning.

When the Bone Arrow touched the golden bell, the Qiongqi Primordial Spirit sensed that the old monk was difficult to deal with, so it took the opportunity to hide in the Void Realm and deliver a fatal blow.

After devouring it whole, the Qiongqi transformed back into an arrow and returned to Gu Liangyuan’s hand.

“Now you know why it hurts, right?”

“You…”

The old monk was furious, pointing at Gu Liangyuan, but he didn't utter any harsh words.

He activated his Qi and blood, wanting his right leg to regrow.

However, he found that the bitten wound was being corroded by a dense Evil Qi, making the circulation of Qi and blood sluggish and difficult to recover for a while.

“Amitabha.”

The old monk placed a single palm before his chest and recited a Buddhist chant:

“My Rulai Holy Land, a pure land of Buddhism, does not contend, does not kill!”

Saying that, he threw the golden bell to Gu Liangyuan:

“This Slaughter was caused by Sun Wuchen, so let Wuchen end it.”

“You may leave. Monks are compassionate, and this old monk does not wish to act.”

Sun Wuchen, trapped within the golden bell, was filled with disbelief.

He just sold me out like that?

Yesterday he swore to protect me completely, and today he just so grandly sold me out?

We agreed that I would provide the effort, and you would provide the people to persuade Mo Emperor.

To honor the Rulai Holy Land as the state religion, to make the Rulai Holy Land great and strong, and to create new glory.

Last night he still called me Elder Wuchen, and today he’s Sun Wuchen?

Ah!

I hate it!

Looking at the flying golden bell, Gu Liangyuan waved his hand and stored it within the Shan He Fan.

After doing all this, Gu Liangyuan let out a strange, cackling laugh:

“Hehehehe, wouldn’t it have been better to just hand him over earlier? Why make it so ugly?”

Hearing this, the old monk quietly exhaled a sigh of relief.

He had indeed said he would protect Sun Wuchen before, hoping to connect with Mo Emperor through Sun Wuchen.

Now, as Mo Emperor was undertaking drastic reforms, the Rulai Holy Land’s participation was timely.

But now, he saw the situation clearly.

He had overestimated the Rulai Holy Land and underestimated Gu Liangyuan too much.

First, he underestimated Gu Liangyuan’s strength, and second, he underestimated Gu Liangyuan’s determination to kill Sun Wuchen!

To kill one person, he didn't hesitate to expend Lifespan.

Such a ruthless person was not to be provoked!

More importantly, Gu Liangyuan’s Law Manifestation of Heaven and Earth had not yet been unleashed.

If it were, the old monk didn't think he could withstand it.

Fortunately, Gu Liangyuan still had some rationality; he got Sun Wuchen and was leaving.

Otherwise, it would truly be troublesome.

Just as he was thinking this, Gu Liangyuan’s voice came again:

“Unfortunately, it’s too late!”

With a loud roar, Gu Liangyuan stomped his foot heavily!

In the blink of an eye, a towering giant appeared between heaven and earth!

At this moment, Gu Liangyuan didn't know how enormous he truly was.

His feet stepped on the desert, his soles burning hot, his body submerged in clouds, exuding a chilling cold!

If not for the surging power of his Qi and blood, ice crystals would have already formed around Gu Liangyuan’s waist and abdomen.

Above his head, it seemed to have touched a barrier, preventing his body from growing further.

A scan with his Divine Ability revealed the barrier’s information in his mind:

“Name: Heaven and Earth Barrier”

“Function: Protects this world, making it difficult for Immortals to descend to the Lower Realm.”

Only then did Gu Liangyuan realize that this was the legendary Heaven and Earth Barrier.

With a thought, his body quickly shrunk to the size of a mountain.

However, his power did not weaken with the shrinking of his body.

Gu Liangyuan suddenly understood; only at this moment did he truly fully grasp the Law Manifestation of Heaven and Earth, an Unsurpassed Great Divine Power.

It could be vast enough to prop up the heavens, or small enough to become dust.

Its size could be changed at will, in a single thought!

At this time, Gu Liangyuan’s cultivation was at the Peak of the Wind Calamity Realm. Gu Liangyuan could clearly feel that he was only a hair's breadth away from the Immortal Realm.

This hair's breadth could be broken through, but using the power of an Immortal would result in being expelled by the will of heaven and earth.

So he did not choose to continue his Breakthrough.

Peak Wind Calamity was enough!

All of this sounds slow, but in reality, it happened in just two thoughts, less than a breath!

Holding Mo Tan Kill, his halberd soldiers and generals followed behind him.

The Slaughter Domain was unleashed, covering an area of eight thousand li around him!

“Kill, kill, kill!”

After uttering three “kill” words, the Nine Kill Sword appeared out of thin air.

Gu Liangyuan used Chaos Qi to forcefully break several kill-word restrictions on the Nine Kill Sword, elevating it to the Rank of a Medium Grade Immortal Artifact!

Mo Tan Kill was in his hand, and the Nine Kill Sword circled around him!

The Nielong Armor was worn on his body!

The Tai Xuan Sword hovered above his head!

He raised his halberd and charged straight towards the old monk!

He wanted to use the blood of the Rulai Holy Land to complete his Slaughter Dao Fruit!

The old monk’s expression was grim. Feeling the Elders constantly gathering behind him, after a moment of struggle, he took out a golden post!

On the post, the six-character mantra was written in vermilion ink: Om Mani Padme Hum!

“Benefactor Gu Liang, do you really want to fight to the death?”

“You are also a person of the Holy Land; you must know the power of this post.”

Name: Six-Character Mantra Post

Rank: Ancient Immortal Item

Function: Contains the will of a true Buddha, capable of suppressing all things, requires the Heart Sutra to activate!

Seeing this, Gu Liangyuan’s steps unconsciously slowed down:

“Let’s talk.”

Seeing Gu Liangyuan say this, the old monk let out a long breath.

Fortunately, this madman wasn't completely without scruples.

Gu Liangyuan’s voice came again:

“So… you’re called Yuantong, right?”

The old monk looked quite surprised:

“Benefactor Gu Liang has heard of this old monk’s name?”

Swish!

As soon as the old monk spoke, a red light suddenly flashed across the heavens and earth.
