266: Chapter 266 Inner Demons

The East Sea stretched out for ten thousand miles of azure waves.

Several illusory golden lotuses rapidly spread across the sea's surface.

Five monks clad in five-colored cassocks walked upon the waves, their feet suspended in the air as they stepped on the golden lotuses.

A faint buddhist chant drifted along, accompanied by a light scent of sandalwood, diffusing in all directions with the sea breeze.

Over a dozen spirit ships belonging to Loose Cultivators along the way were swept by this buddhist chant.

On the decks, those Loose Cultivators who were originally full of hostility and fighting over a few Low-Grade Spirit Stones all froze in their tracks.

Their killing intent was ruthlessly erased.

In its place was an extremely eerie sense of peace.

The Loose Cultivators threw down their Magical Artifacts and knelt on the deck with a thud.

They kowtowed frantically toward the direction the monks had departed, mumbling prayers under their breath.

The lead monk's dharma name was Wisdom Empty.

He held one hand vertically before his chest, fingering a string of bone prayer beads, turning a blind eye to the scene below.

He skimmed straight across the sea, heading directly for that luxurious traveling palace deep beneath the waves.

The Sixth Prince's traveling palace.

Extremely precious Tranquilizing Incense was burning inside the main hall.

Yet the rich fragrance could not suppress that nauseating violence.

Ao Ming sat slumped on a Dragon throne made of pure gold.

That face, which had once been smashed to pieces by Gu Changsheng's punch, was now completely restored.

It was even fairer and more handsome than before.

But within the purple True Dragon Protective Aura swirling around him, a wisp of viscous black Qi was abruptly mixed in.

A Heart Demon.

That one-sided beating ten years ago had completely destroyed the pride of this Sixth Prince.

A dignified Purple Mansion True Dragon like himself had been pinned to the ground and ground down like a sandbag by a Human Race Guest Elder.

This humiliating disgrace had become the most fatal crack in his Dao foundation.

If he did not kill 'eternal regret', he could forget about ever advancing another step in this lifetime.

Wisdom Empty entered the hall with four other monks.

Five-colored radiance flowed over their monastic robes, solemn and holy.

But on the polished floor tiles of the hall, the shadows of these five men were stretched extremely long and dark.

They exuded an indescribable gloom.

"Amitabha."

Wisdom Empty pressed his palms together and bowed slightly.

"This humble monk, Wisdom Empty, greets Your Highness the Sixth Prince."

Ao Ming's narrow eyes snapped open, staring fixedly at the bald donkey below.

"Enough nonsense."

"This Prince has promised to designate two sea regions in the East Sea for you to establish Life Transformation Altars and permit you to proselytize."

"There is only one condition."

Ao Ming leaned forward suddenly, his knuckles cracking as an extremely crazed resentment erupted in his eyes.

"Use your Buddhist 'Fate Connection' to drag that piece of trash named 'eternal regret' out for this Prince!"

"I want to skin him alive!"

The violent Purple Mansion pressure, mixed with black Qi, rampaged through the hall.

Wisdom Empty's movement of fingering the prayer beads paused for a moment.

He looked at this once-arrogant Dragon Palace prince and a sneer welled up in his heart.

A dignified True Dragon Bloodline, for the sake of a private grudge, actually did not hesitate to invite wolves into his house.

Handing over the East Sea's interests to the Buddhist Cultivators of the Western Desert.

Truly an excellent, foolish pawn.

"Calm your anger, Your Highness."

Wisdom Empty's voice was gentle, carrying a strange power that soothed the heart.

"Since we have formed a karmic bond, this humble monk will naturally share Your Highness's worries."

He sat cross-legged in the center of the hall.

He took out a purple-gold alms bowl and placed it upside down in front of him.

"I ask Your Highness to bestow a wisp of that person's Qi, or a personal item."

Ao Ming snorted coldly.

With a wave of his hand, a fragment of a Black Iron brick stained with dried blood smashed down in front of Wisdom Empty.

That was the extremely faint aura left on the floor tile when Gu Changsheng had shattered the Protective Aura with a punch on the altar back then.

Wisdom Empty's eyes closed slightly.

His hands formed an extremely complex hand seal, and a dazzling five-colored radiance lit up his fingertips.

The radiance was injected into the purple-gold alms bowl.

Dense golden Sanskrit characters surfaced on the bowl's exterior, spinning rapidly.

[Fate Connection].

The core deduction secret technique of the Buddhist lineage, borrowing the Power Of Will from billions of believers to forcibly pluck the strings of Karma.

Even if the target fled to the ends of the earth, as long as they were tainted by Karma, they could be locked down tightly.

The radiance grew brighter and brighter.

Ao Ming stared fixedly at the bowl, his breathing hurried.

Ten years.

He had used countless hidden lines of the Dragon Palace and even offered a high reward, but that trash seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth.

Today, he would see just how capable these bald donkeys were.

However.

Half an incense stick of time passed.

The Sanskrit characters on the purple-gold bowl suddenly trembled violently.

The originally brilliant five-colored radiance seemed to have hit an invisible black iron wall.

It was extinguished instantly.

Wisdom Empty's whole body shook, and he snapped his eyes open.

A hint of metallic blood rose in his throat, but he forcibly swallowed it down.

The deduction had failed.

Not only had it failed, but he hadn't even been able to capture the slightest trace of a Karma line.

The Qi on that Black Iron brick, under the perception of [Fate Connection], pointed directly to an absolute void.

Not within the Five Elements, faded out of Karma.

This was simply not an effect that any concealment Spell could achieve.

This was absolute shielding at the level of rules!

Stormy waves surged in Wisdom Empty's heart.

To be able to block a Power Of Will deduction at the Bodhisattva level, this person must be carrying an unimaginably precious treasure!

It might even be a legendary Innate spiritual item!

Greed began to grow wildly in Wisdom Empty's heart.

He quickly composed himself and resumed fingering the bone prayer beads.

"Well?"

Ao Ming stood up abruptly, staring fixedly at Wisdom Empty.

"Did you find him!"

Wisdom Empty slowly stood up and pressed his palms together.

"Amitabha."

"Your Highness, this person's Karma is extremely bizarre, and he bears a great aura of evil."

"This humble monk's Fate Connection was actually forcibly blocked by his evil Qi."

Ao Ming flew into a rage.

He kicked over the pure gold table in front of him.

"Useless!"

"This Prince allowed you to come to the East Sea to proselytize, and you use this kind of excuse to fool me?"

The violent True Dragon Protective Aura smashed toward Wisdom Empty.

Wisdom Empty did not dodge, allowing the Protective Aura to crash into the five-colored radiance and dissipate like a breeze.

"Your Highness, please be patient."

"Although I failed to directly lock his position, this monk has ascertained that he has not left the East Sea."

"As long as he is in the East Sea, he cannot escape the salvation of my Buddha."

Wisdom Empty's voice was flat, exuding absolute confidence.

"I will establish Life Transformation Altars throughout the East Sea."

"As long as he dares to show himself and becomes tainted by the Power Of Will of the Life Transformation Altars, I can lock onto him instantly."

"At that time, this person will be at Your Highness's disposal."

Ao Ming's chest heaved violently.

He stared fixedly at Wisdom Empty for a long time before squeezing out a few words through his teeth.

"Fine."

"This Prince will trust you one more time."

"Regarding the Life Transformation Altars, I will send people to make the arrangements."

"If you still haven't found him within three years, then get the hell out of the East Sea!"

Wisdom Empty bowed slightly.

"Excellent."

He turned and led the four monks out of the hall.

The moment he stepped out of the hall, Wisdom Empty's fingers gripped the bone prayer beads tightly.

A heavy treasure.

This heavy treasure that could shield Karma, he must obtain it.

As for handing it over to Ao Ming?

Heh, a stupid dragon ruined by a Heart Demon, does he think he is worthy of touching such a divine object?
