134: Chapter 134 The Green Serpent Manifests the Great Sage, Hell Appears
"Well done, River God!"
Profound Heart was overjoyed!
During this brief moment of resistance, Profound Heart and the other pursuers quickly arrived.
Three at Nascent Soul Perfection, one River God, and five other Nascent Soul experts completely surrounded the group.
On Xu Qing's side, there was only Elder Li, the monk, and the twin swords.
Oh, right, and a little snake at the Early Golden Core stage.
Don't say the Green Snake's win rate is low; the Green Snake only fights in high-end matches.
There are only ninety-nine Nascent Soul experts in this world, and more than ten percent of them were gathered here.
The three-headed purple Dharma Idol, carrying a small mountain on its back, scanned the surroundings.
Chains were still entwined around the deity transformation imprint on the small tripod atop it.
The atmosphere was tense.
"amitabha. This scene reminds this poor monk of events from five hundred years ago."
"That year, when the Bodhi Temple suppressed that snake demon with three thousand years of Dao Cultivation, there were many casualties."
"Back then, this poor monk was still running about for a nascent soul imprint."
"Speaking of striving for a deity transformation imprint at the Bodhi Temple, that's even more worth discussing."
"In the Bodhi Temple, one only has a chance if their Buddha Light Penetrates the Profound."
"To reach the realm where the Buddha Light Penetrates the Profound, this poor monk left the temple to beg for alms for nearly fifty years."
"The first stop of that alms-seeking journey..."
Seeing the situation was grim, Silent Severity shook his zen staff and performed a Buddhist salute. As Buddha light surged, he began to stall for time.
The group of Cultivators fell for it again, involuntarily calming their minds to listen.
Even the boundless rage in Profound Heart's heart felt as if it had been brushed by floating dust; his mind became clear, and he wanted to listen intently.
"This monk is toxic!"
As an ally, Xu Qing was stunned.
"This trick again? Die!"
Profound Heart was the first to snap out of it again. No longer hesitating, he attacked, directly summoning the Heaven Shaking Seal.
One trick to rule them all.
The battle was on the verge of breaking out.
The group of Nascent Soul experts also reacted quickly and moved immediately.
The Green Snake was so scared he turned into a rattlesnake.
He was just a little snake demon with three hundred—no, now four hundred—years of Dao Cultivation!
Any random attack here landing on his little snake body would kill him several times over.
However, the twin swords kept Xu Qing protected behind them, like a reliable big sister.
But it was clear that because of Xu Qing, the twin swords couldn't unleash their full power.
"No, at the very least, I can't be a burden!"
Xu Qing's self-esteem was severely bruised.
His pair of snake eyes scanned the field, looking for an opportunity to be useful.
"Elder Li! Give Daya to me!"
Xu Qing sent a voice transmission to the purple Dharma Idol.
One head of the Dharma Idol looked toward Xu Qing and, without a moment's hesitation, tossed a piece of purple jade to him.
"Don't let Li Xiaomo have her way!"
The situation was now decided and could not afford any accidents; Profound Heart shouted out.
Several beams of spiritual light Spells smashed toward the purple jade.
The twin swords pressed their palms together, and the blades in their hands flew out, breaking the spiritual light Spells one after another.
At the same time, one hand picked up Xu Qing.
"Go!"
She threw Xu Qing toward the purple jade.
Using the Great Strength, Xu Qing cast an escape technique, turning into a green light to fly toward the purple jade and grab it.
"A mere Golden Core snake demon, die!"
Several Spells smashed toward Xu Qing.
The twin swords turned into Escape Light, protecting Xu Qing's surroundings and leaving behind afterimages.
The speed was so fast it left the snake in awe.
Xu Qing's Divine Sense probed into the purple jade; inside was a pool of purple spiritual liquid, with Daya curled up and sleeping within it.
"Daya, I'm counting on you now!"
At this moment, the purple Dharma Idol raised its giant arms and smashed the piece of the Floating Island that had been sliced off, along with the deity transformation imprint, toward Xu Qing.
"Stop her!"
Although he didn't understand Li Xiaomo's play, Profound Heart still shouted loudly.
"Don't even think about stopping the Master!"
The twin swords formed hand seals, her form splitting into two, becoming two young girls—one holding a saber and one holding a sword—protecting both sides.
"amitabha."
Silent Severity also chanted a Buddhist name, gripped his zen staff, and threw it from high in the sky.
The zen staff lit up with golden light in mid-air, transforming into a white-browed tiger to protect Xu Qing's rear.
With a tiger's roar, it shattered the incoming Spells.
The mountain-like chunk smashed down like a meteor.
All eyes—angry, joyful, mocking, or laughing—looked toward the Green Snake.
The Green Snake's gaze was calm as he formed hand seals, his massive green snake tail coiled in the Void Realm.
The heaven-accepting gourd was tossed in front of him. Green light shone, and the mouth of the bottle seemed to emit infinite golden light.
A pair of heterochromatic snake eyes lit up with black and white light.
Yin and Yang were reversed, life and death exchanged, connecting to the boundary of life and death.
"Hell Descends."
Sudden thunder erupted in the sky.
A boundless black tower smashed out, and endless black flames descended like fire clouds.
Several peaks, thick with Yin Qi, smashed down one by one.
Booming sounds echoed out.
"...What... is this?"
The group of Nascent Soul experts stared blankly at the Green Snake.
"Refine!"
Yin Qi and Death Qi surged, enveloping the falling mountain chunk.
The creation fluid in the heaven-accepting gourd was consumed rapidly, more than half gone in the blink of an eye, constantly flowing from the gourd's mouth like a small golden river.
Xu Qing's Demonic Power condensed as he spat out endless Green Fire, merging it into the Yin Qi.
At the same time, he formed hand seals, operating the Artifact Refining connection technique.
"This Green Snake wants to refine the entire mountain peak into that gourd? Is it crazy!"
"Stop it!"
The nine Nascent Soul experts all turned their attention to attack Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's expression remained unchanged; he even closed his eyes, focusing entirely on the Artifact Refining method.
"If I don't look, I won't be scared. If I don't look, I won't be scared!"
He muttered in his heart.
The twins split from the twin swords both formed seals. Countless Sword Qi and saber light billowed, blocking the myriad of falling Spells from both sides.
The tiger transformed from Silent Severity's zen staff also roared incessantly. Its pair of tiger paws stomped the ground, causing giant rocks to burst through the earth, firmly protecting Xu Qing's rear.
For a moment, not a single Spell managed to penetrate the defense to affect Xu Qing.
"Heaven Shaking Seal!"
Ignoring the loss of Dao Cultivation, Profound Heart and the other two condensed square seals together and smashed them toward Xu Qing.
The three Heaven Shaking Seals merged, as if they were truly going to crush a hole in the sky.
The Sword Qi, saber light, and earth and stone were instantly crushed to dust by the Heaven Shaking Seal. Its power undiminished, it smashed toward Xu Qing.
With his eyes closed, Xu Qing was not afraid in the slightest.
At that moment, a purple Dharma Idol descended, its six arms reaching up to block the square seal.
The earth shook, and bursts of Yin Qi rose from all sides.
The six arms of the purple Dharma Idol were crushed, and one head exploded and vanished.
"Cough, cough!"
Inside the Dharma Idol, Elder Li's aura was unstable, and the Dharma Idol was teetering, seemingly unable to maintain its form.
Boom!
The thunder between heaven and earth had never stopped.
And now, a bolt of lightning struck the mountain rock Xu Qing was refining.
"Heavenly Tribulation!"
"What on earth is this Green Snake trying to refine!"
Xu Qing opened his eyes; his Demonic Power had hit rock bottom.
[Ding, proficiency has reached the requirement]
[Artifact Refining LV5 upgraded to Artifact Refining LV6]
Crack...
Amidst the Heavenly Tribulation, the chain binding the deity transformation imprint finally cracked with a gap.
"An opportunity!"
The twins split from the twin blades no longer hesitated, returning to their original forms as a saber and a sword, slashing toward the crack in the chain.
"You dare!!!"
In a fit of rage, Profound Heart slapped his chest and spat out a mouthful of essence blood. Sacrificing decades of Dao Cultivation, he transformed it into a Blood Spike that pierced toward the twin swords.
Neither of the twin blades dodged or avoided it, taking the Blood Spike head-on as they hacked at the crack in the chain.
Crack!
They hit the crack, but the Blood Spike also cleanly severed both of the twin blades, causing them to let out a mournful cry as they fell to the ground.
Elder Li, who was mentally connected to them, also spat out a mouthful of blood. The Dharma Idol could no longer be maintained and dissipated.
But at this moment, no one cared about the person or the blades; everyone present looked toward the chain.
The crack in the chain widened, with only a small part still connected.
But it didn't break.
"Hahaha!! Heaven has not forsaken my Xuanji Sect!!!"
"Now die!"
