419: Darwin's tension

Listening to the sounds of battle outside the city, Darwin was truly burning with anxiety this time!

He was currently entangled by three Arhats and had no idea what was happening on the battlefield, but hearing those strange screams, he felt the battle situation might not be going well.

However, even though Darwin was a tiger whose strength had waned, and despite having a severed arm and severe injuries that were hard to heal, he was still trading blows with the three Arhats; it could be said that neither side could do anything to the other.

As the battle outside the city intensified, Darwin's heart began to panic. Truth be told, the guy with the sack and the guy with the long eyebrows were not to be feared at all; only this guy raising a tiger was difficult to deal with.

The Arhat Who Subdues Tigers had heavy fists, each strike as heavy as a mountain, yet he was surprisingly agile. Fighting him felt like facing a tiger standing on its hind legs—his footwork was nimble and varied, and his punches were powerful.

"This is what they call a tiger falling to the flatlands... If I were in my prime, I would fear none of you petty scoundrels!"

Darwin roared and sent the Arhat Who Subdues Tigers stumbling back dozens of steps with a single palm strike.

The Arhat Who Subdues Tigers looked at his slightly red and swollen palm, then nodded and said, "You're right, we are petty scoundrels, but we petty scoundrels are here to stop you from harming this world again... Heh, we haven't yet experienced Darwin's Life Law!"

"Fine, then I will grant your wish!"

Darwin suddenly pushed his Aura to the limit. "Life Law... Regeneration!"

Hum!

A strange change suddenly occurred on Darwin's body; just like when he fought the three Guanyins, he instantly reached the Quasi-Saint Realm.

At the same time, his arm grew back, and it looked even tougher than before.

The three Arhats were extremely astonished and all thought to themselves: "This guy... wasn't he injured and unable to activate his Law powers?"

In fact, they were not wrong; originally, he was unable to activate his Law powers, but he had managed to do so anyway.

However, activating Law powers required a price!

One must know that the Killing Dao Law of Killing Intent Guanyin was lurking in his body like maggots on bones, preventing his body from recovering. Clearing these Law powers required time.

Before he could purge these Law powers, he was unable to activate his own Life Law because he had to keep the Life Law to purge the opponent's Killing Dao Law.

Darwin's instantaneous activation of the Law, allowing him to evolve to the Quasi-Saint Realm in an instant, was actually because he had directly burned his life force to forcibly purge the Killing Dao Law.

In less than a single second, he had lost nearly a hundred years of his lifespan!

After being modified by his master, Darwin's lifespan had already reached over five hundred years, but this single burst alone caused him to lose nearly a hundred years of life.

However, he had finally succeeded... His speed soared to the limit at this moment, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived behind the Long Eyebrow Arhat and tapped his back with a finger. The Long Eyebrow Arhat was stunned, and in the blink of an eye, his body gradually shrank until he turned into a teenage boy before stopping.

Slap!

A big slap sent the child-transformed Long Eyebrow Arhat crashing to the ground, and Darwin seized the opportunity to escape and rush toward the battlefield.

The Long Eyebrow Arhat took a long time to recover before finally standing up from the ground. His form slowly returned to its original appearance, and he said helplessly, "Senior Brother, this guy's Law is too terrifying. If his power hadn't reached its full state, I'm afraid I would have regressed into infancy this time!"

The Sack Arhat was about to chase after him, but was stopped by the Arhat Who Subdues Tigers, who said, "No need. You few, protect that so-called Crown Prince and this palace; we will need to use this place as a base later... Hmm, there is someone waiting for him over there; he won't be able to run!"

Darwin's speed was extremely fast, and he had almost reached the battlefield in the blink of an eye, but unexpectedly, a thunderbolt suddenly crashed down from the sky, blocking Darwin right there.

"Amitabha, it would be better for the benefactor to stay here!"

A monk with a kind face stood before him, chuckling.

"Who are you?"

Seeing the extraordinary Aura on him, Darwin dared not be careless and assumed a combat stance.

"This Poor Monk is under the command of the World Honored One of the Western Heaven, Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva."

The monk smiled and said, "I do not wish to create more killing karma; why doesn't the benefactor calmly chat with this Poor Monk here!"

"Chat about what? Chat about science, about biology, do you understand that?"

Darwin sneered, his right index finger already pointing at Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva.

Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva smiled slightly, waved one hand, and shouted clearly, "Varshamanjushaka!"

Hum!

Points of light in the air surrounded Darwin like raindrops, and for a moment, they actually prevented his finger from moving forward...

"This is... Buddha Light?"

Darwin narrowed his eyes and said, "But, Buddha Light is not a Law, you... cannot stop me!"

"Life Law... Evolution!"

Hum!

One finger pierced through the golden rain screen and tapped into the palm of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva. A piece of flesh suddenly mutated, turning into a giant scorpion tail, which violently stabbed toward Mahasthamaprapta's brow with intense poison.

The Bodhisattva frowned slightly and suddenly shook his right arm. Intending to "sacrifice his body to feed the tiger," he severed his entire arm.

The arm landed on the ground and had already turned into countless large scorpions over half a meter long, gathering in one place and looking quite terrifying.

However, Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva showed no signs of panic; instead, he struck down with his left hand and shouted clearly, "Wonderful Lotus Flower!"

Hum!

A golden lotus suddenly bloomed, crushing the scorpions formed from the Bodhisattva's flesh into ashes. However, when Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva looked up, Darwin had already gone far away.

"Heh, forget it, forget it. This Poor Monk had intended to save your life here, but it seems your own death has arrived; you can't blame anyone else!"

Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva smiled bitterly and helplessly.

Darwin was burning with anxiety because he had a bad premonition.

"Clang!"

The sound of a bell ringing made the entire earth tremble. Darwin was suddenly startled, and immediately after, a Subduing Demon Pestle fell from mid-air and smashed fiercely onto the top of his head.

Boom!

The immense force smashed him directly into the ground. A Protector Vajra slowly descended; his face was like jade, his lips were like vermilion, and he looked dignified and awe-inspiring.

This deity roared, "Traitor, do you still remember your Grandpa Vajrapani? You evil spirits invaded Lingshan and tore my true body to pieces; I have an irreconcilable hatred for you!"

Bang!

Darwin instantly broke through the ground, reached out to grab the Subduing Demon Pestle, and smashed it toward Vajrapani, but unexpectedly, this item was his Lifebound Treasure and did not obey Darwin's commands at all.

Boom!

With a turn, Darwin was smashed so hard he staggered. Dazed and dizzy, he couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself: "Time is running out... I... in the end, I still cannot hold on..."
