201: Chapter 201 Two Eggs and One Shot!
Lightning with the power of the Body Integration Stage fell like a waterfall. Apart from Huang Feihu, no one could withstand a single bolt of lightning completely.
Every time a bolt of lightning struck Su Mo, one of the countless swarm of insects would explode.
"Ah—!"
After enduring a complete bolt of lightning, Huang Feihu's body was charred black, cracks appeared on his skin, and wisps of fresh blood seeped out from them.
Suddenly, a faint, white-glowing " 卍" Buddhist seal appeared on Huang Feihu's forehead.
Su Mo's gaze tightened; he felt a familiar aura from this Buddhist seal.
Great Nirvana Buddha?!
Su Mo did not say the name aloud, but Huang Feihu revealed a look of serenity, which appeared extremely eerie while bathed in the sky-filling lightning.
Opening his eyes again, the aura on Huang Feihu's body had completely changed.
Serene and calm; even the speed at which the Lightning Tribulation descended seemed to have slowed down slightly.
"Amitabha..."
Huang Feihu pressed his palms together.
"Benefactor, we meet again."
Su Mo's pupils constricted, and he squeezed a few words out of his mouth: "Great Nirvana Buddha!"
"No wonder Benefactor said you would come to compete next time. It turns out Benefactor has a secret technique to preserve your memories through Reincarnation and Rebirth. Truly interesting... Could it be that Benefactor is also from the Yuanguang Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Su Mo felt puzzled.
Yuanguang Realm?
If this Great Nirvana Buddha came from the Yuanguang Realm, does that not mean the Yuanguang Realm is the Upper Realm that Cultivators in the cultivation world speak of?!
Before Su Mo could speak, the body of the Great Nirvana Buddha had already begun to crack inch by inch; it clearly could not last much longer.
"What a pity... This body is a bit too weak..."
The figure of the Great Nirvana Buddha gradually became illusory: "However, Benefactor, we will meet again very soon."
He extended a finger, and a soft beam of light shot out. Just like last time, Su Mo could not dodge it at all and could only watch helplessly as it entered his forehead.
A " 卍" Buddhist seal appeared on Su Mo's forehead.
Su Mo's expression was solemn as he quickly investigated his body—Sea of Consciousness, Dantian, Meridians... He checked everything, but found nothing.
It was as if the mark on his forehead was just a label with no practical use.
The Lightning Tribulation had vanished, and Huang Feihu's body had turned into dust.
Yet the worry between Su Mo's brows did not diminish in the slightest. The spiritual power of the mark on his forehead could not be removed, and even the Power of Laws was useless.
With a thought, Su Mo decisively chose to self-destruct, simultaneously burning his Divine Soul to ashes.
The second after his substitute death, a wicked smile curled the corners of Su Mo's lips.
Sure enough, this Buddhist seal was branded onto the Divine Soul.
After he self-destructed and burned his Divine Soul, this mark appeared directly on the nearest ant.
"Heh, thinking that marking the Divine Soul would be useful..."
The Divine Soul is related to Reincarnation. The Great Nirvana Buddha thought that by marking Su Mo's Divine Soul, he could lock onto Su Mo.
Little did he know, Su Mo relies on a speck of true spirit for Reincarnation.
Su Mo looked at the " 卍" Buddhist seal on the ant's forehead before him, a flash of light in his eyes: "It seems I can use this thing to do something else..."
Just as Su Mo was pondering, the shouts of the Fierce Tiger King came from afar: "Brother! Brother! Save my brother!"
Su Mo self-destructed to hurry over, arriving at the side of the Fierce Tiger King.
He saw him holding Huang Batian's body, his tiger eyes filled with tears.
Huang Batian's chest had been pierced through. The Metal-attribute Power of Laws at the wound was constantly preventing the wound from healing, and his life force was fading rapidly.
In this situation, if the Power of Laws on the wound was not removed, inputting massive amounts of life force would be useless; even a god could not save him.
However, the Power of Laws of a Body Integration Stage Cultivator is not something an ordinary Cultivator can remove; one must have comprehended the Law to at least the same level.
As it happens, Su Mo has both!
"Little... Little White... Big Brother is sorry... I almost..."
Huang Batian spoke with difficulty, fresh blood continuously overflowing from the corners of his mouth.
The Fierce Tiger King shed tiger tears: "Big Brother..."
Su Mo patted the Grand Elder, who was keeping Huang Batian alive, and signaled him to step back.
"Alright, save your last words for later."
Upon hearing this, the Fierce Tiger King looked sharply at Su Mo. He knew that if Su Mo said this, he must be confident in saving his big brother.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you were speaking quite nastily just a moment ago; why are you like a dead dog now?"
Su Mo crouched down as he spoke, a faint, ambiguous smile on his lips.
"Human Race... I don't need you... to save me..."
Huang Batian turned his head away with difficulty, his eyes full of humiliation.
Su Mo chuckled: "Sorry, I've been rebellious since I was a child. You don't want to be saved, but I insist on saving you. Not only that... I'm going to collect a fee."
"I'll take your two eggs and a spear."
"You..."
Huang Batian's tiger eyes widened, with a hint of a final flare of life.
Su Mo did not say another word; he slapped his palm onto his chest, and Light-attribute Power of Laws surged in, beginning to remove the Metal-attribute Power of Laws at the wound.
Su Mo had comprehended the Light-attribute Law to nearly ninety percent, but his cultivation was only at the Golden Core Stage. Using the Power of Laws required him to pay a huge price, burning essence blood, Lifespan, and even his Divine Soul.
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Su Mo aged at a speed visible to the naked eye; white hair sprouted, and his aura weakened.
"Why..."
Huang Batian was stunned, his eyes full of confusion. "You are Human Race... Why save me..."
"Because... I feel like it."
The last bit of life force was exhausted, and finally, the Metal-attribute Power of Laws at the wound was completely removed.
Subsequently, a massive amount of life force was squeezed out from the swarm of insects and fused into Huang Batian's body.
At the very moment before his life force was cut off, Su Mo shouted: "Quick, help me hold him down!"
The crowd did not understand why, but they still stepped forward and held Huang Batian down tightly.
But Huang Batian realized something and began to struggle desperately.
"No—!"
Su Mo gave a devilish smile, his palm turning into a blade and slicing across.
Seeing this, the crowd couldn't help but tremble, feeling a chill in their crotches, and they all clamped their legs together in unison.
Huang Batian let out a roar, and his crotch was already empty.
Although one could expend some resources to reshape the Physical Body, the trauma of having his spear and eggs severed was impossible to shake off.
Before he could collect the massive spear and eggs, Su Mo smiled with satisfaction, and his body instantly turned into fly ash.
Seeing this, Huang Batian's eyes blurred as he muttered: "Human Race, I will not forget you. I will repay your kindness in the next life..."
This was the first Human Race he admired from the bottom of his heart; the dignity of the Tiger Clan would not allow him to forget.
However, the next second, Su Mo appeared in front of Huang Batian again, completely unharmed, and conveniently collected the golden spear and eggs from the ground into his storage ring.
This could be considered a limited edition spear and eggs; who knows how nourishing it might be.
"Forget the next life; you can repay it in this one."
He flashed a toothy grin at the dumbstruck crowd: "Since the Clan Chief of the Golden Tiger Clan is gone, how about letting the Fierce Tiger King take the position? Who approves, who opposes?"
The whole place was deathly silent.
The Fierce Tiger King's cultivation was only at the early stage of Soul Transformation. Logically speaking, it would never be his turn, but his Bloodline had reverted to the ancestors, and his cultivation could be raised very quickly.
The Grand Elder spoke slowly: "This old man agrees."
The other Elders saw this and also echoed their agreement.
The Fierce Tiger King, however, could not come to his senses for a long time. Clan Chief? Me?
He looked at Su Mo in a daze, only to see the other party raising an eyebrow and smiling at him: "How about it? Once you become the Clan Chief, you will have everything you want—female tigers, resources to Cultivate, status... You will have whatever you want."
