Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme - Chapter 330
Chapter 330: Chapter 222: Slaughtering Demon_1
“`
In an instant, just at the moment of beholding the true visage of the Big Black Buddha Mother, an indescribable and terrifying sensation surged wildly in Li Suhong’s heart.
With a rigid body, trembling uncontrollably, clearly shaking yet unable to move, all she could do was watch helplessly as the hollow-faced, grotesquely frightening Buddha statue slowly pressed towards her.
Just then…
“Boom!!!”
A roaring sound, like thunder exploding, shocked all directions.
In a flash, the darkness, like a tide, retreated, and the image of the Big Black Buddha Mother disappeared along with it.
Li Suhong, as if awakening from a dream, her eyes filled with confusion, then recalling the scene from moments before, and with the image of the Big Black Buddha Mother reappearing in her mind, her face turned ashen. Cold sweat poured down as she involuntarily collapsed to the ground, trembling ceaselessly.
Meanwhile, outside the Qianlong Basket.
The black tide surged, like an abyss, using countless curse characters as a guide, connecting to an unknown place one after another.
“Amitabha Amitabha Amitabha!”
“Amitabha Amitabha Amitabha!”
“…”
Evil chants filled the air, Demonic Qi boiled, and countless pieces of flesh grew from the vortex, emerging to form a monstrous fleshly body, without skin but with muscles, without bones but with sinews.
The fleshly body had eight arms, each holding a magic artifact, the belly as big as a drum, surrounded by infants, and from its body grew a flesh and blood lotus platform that was connected to it. Amid the eerie chanting, it gradually became coated in a golden light, transforming into a golden body.
It was the Bodhisattva of Flesh and Blood, the Jealousy Heaven Venerable — the Big Black Buddha Mother!
Even in the Desire Realm, she was a powerful entity.
Although not her true body at this moment, she was just a Demon Seed, still her majesty was immense, and her presence terrifying to all things!
Omnipresent, nothing was beyond her reach!
Indeed, she was not a colossal being. Even with the flesh and blood lotus platform beneath her, she was merely three to four zhang tall. Yet the feeling she gave off was grandeur and commanding authority.
She sat there, majestic, the surging black tide below her now receding, all the Demonic Qi gathering into her body, condensing into her power, her foundation.
Xu Yang, wielding a steel whip, without a word, leaped into the air and struck again, the Six Ding and Six Jia supporting the Divine Spell, the accompanying thunder striking at the golden body of the Demon Buddha.
“Bang!!!”
A single arm moved, the wheel in hand spun open, Demonic Qi instantly forming a barrier, protecting the Buddha Mother’s body all around.
Xu Yang’s whip might have had the power to shatter mountains and crumble peaks, but when it hit this demonic light, it only produced a loud sound like clashing metal.
In the tremor, Xu Yang somersaulted back, landing a hundred yards away, divine light flickering around him, with the thunderfire on the whip dispersing.
Glancing back at the Big Black Buddha Mother, the demonic light had dimmed but showed no sign of breach.
With one strike, the superior and inferior were determined, and the situation turned once more.
Xu Yang was not surprised by this.
A Demon Seed is hard to extinguish, and the Demon Realm is hard to break.
According to the memories of Taoist Zhu Yang and the records of ancient cultivators, the combat prowess of a True Demon is extraordinary. Even with no awareness and only instinct remaining, it could sweep across peers, with only a few geniuses capable of challenging it.
The reason lies within that essence, stemming from the nature of the Desire Realm Demon God and even Mara Boxun.
The power of a Demon God, indeed problematic.
However, if you have a master plan, I have a way around it!
…
Xu Yang soared into the sky, thunder stirred once more, and he aimed his whip directly at the demonic body of the Buddha Mother.
“Om!!!”
At this moment, from within the hollow skull of the Big Black Buddha Mother, emanated a vast and solemn curse.
The curse, like a wave, was powerful and unmatched, striking at Xu Yang’s figure, instantly shattering the divine light around him and dissipating the thunderfire.
Xu Yang flipped back, retreating to a hundred yards away, and even then, took several steps back, indicating the severity of the impact.
Barely stabilizing his body, his lips showed a brush of crimson.
Xu Yang raised his hand to wipe it off, murmuring to himself, “The Six-Word Bright Mantra!”
The Six-Word Bright Mantra, a true mantra of Buddhism, possesses great mana, Great Divine Power, immense compassion, profound wisdom, significant merit, and perfect completion. It is considered the essence of Buddhism’s curse methods, from which all Divine Spells of Buddhism are derived. For disciples of Buddhism, reciting mantras also begins with it.
Although this Big Black Buddha Mother is a demon, the demons of Boxun inherently possess the ability to “transform into Buddha,” so these Divine Skills come easily to them, with particular alterations. A single word oppressed Xu Yang, showcasing the fierce might of the Demon Buddha.
“Ma!!!”
As Xu Yang retreated, the Demon Buddha did not give him a chance to turn around. The Six-Word Bright Mantra echoed a second time. Ripples emerged in the void, visible to the naked eye, charging towards Xu Yang.
Is this the might of the Golden Core?
No, a common Golden Core could not possess such ability.
This is the foundation of a Golden Core, with the power of a Demon God.
Only this could shake space itself, stirring up relentless ripples.
Xu Yang did not clash head-on, dodging with his bodily movements, as flashes of lightning flickered.
But unexpectedly…
“Ne!!!”
The third sound of the Six-Word Bright Mantra echoed, the Big Black Buddha Mother’s six arms waving, one hand raised high with a magic artifact — it was the Vajra Pestle, striking down heavily at Xu Yang.
“Vajra”, in the language of Buddhism, signifies the ultimate strength, an unstoppable force, capable of breaking all things.
A magic artifact of Buddhism in the hands of a Demon God displayed its power. The Vajra Pestle crashed down into the void, causing waves of ripples and shattering it into numerous cracks.
It did not hit Xu Yang.
But…
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
The lightning scattered, abruptly congealing, and Xu Yang’s figure was forced out, as if pressed by a thousand mountains, not only his body nearly crumbled but also the void under his feet and surroundings cracked.
Suppression, suppression, the Demon God’s suppression!
“`
“`
Although the Vajra Pestle had not struck Xu Yang physically, an intangible curse power heavily pressed down on his body, causing the Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Spells on his skin to crack, disintegrate, and vanish. Blood and cinnabar-made talismans began to fade under this pressure, gradually crumbling…
Curse Skill, the Curse Killing Skill of the Big Black Buddha Mother!
The strike of the Vajra Pestle was merely a form of expression, not an actual hit with the pestle.
Therefore, there was no need for a direct hit; as long as the strike was made, the Curse Skill would take effect.
“Bang!”
The Vajra Pestle suppressed the void, and Xu Yang suffered from the Buddha Mother’s curse killing, with divine light breaking and crumbling inch by inch, the situation becoming critically endangered.
The awe of a demon god was terrifying, even when activated instinctively.
“Crack!!”
Upon the fourth sound of the Six-Word Bright Mantra, the Big Black Buddha Mother raised her second magic artifact, a Rakshasa hook sickle.
The sickle was pitch-black, blessed with curse inscriptions, exuding endless malevolence. In the void, it hooked and pulled as if it would decapitate at the slightest touch.
Another curse, another kill!
Under the suppression of the Vajra Pestle, Xu Yang felt a chilling sensation approaching the back of his neck, the disintegration of the Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Spells accelerated.
Double Curse Killing!
One suppressing the body, the other encircling the head.
Just then…
“Boom!”
A thunderous roar, lightning exploded, with the five colors of azure, yellow, crimson, white, and black bursting forth. Furthermore, the ethereal images of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise materialized as if they were the true spirits of divine beasts, anchored on Xu Yang’s body; like the framework of heaven and earth, the cornerstone of the world.
You have your Demon Buddha Mantra, I have my Taoist Divine Skills.
The Six-Word Bright Mantra, the Five Elements Divine Thunder, which one is superior?
“Bang!!!”
Xu Yang was immovable, steadfast as a mountain, with the power of the Five Elements within him forming an internal system, as if harboring a world within his chest.
The Big Black Buddha Mother, with her demonic sickle hooking down, was met with a clanging and resounding noise as the dark curse inscriptions shattered and the hook sickle broke upon impact.
Demon Buddha Divine Power, the Six-Word Bright Mantra, cannot shake the body of the Five Elements!
And in the instant the hook sickle shattered…
“Rumble rumble!”
Azure, yellow, crimson, black, white, the five elements and five colors, thunder surprised and fled.
Xu Yang stepped out from within, his body flashing with five-colored lightning, which merged with the original Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Spells, reinforcing and protecting together. The divine light of thunder spread, forming into a whip of thunder.
Then…
“Crack!”
With a lash, Xu Yang struck directly towards the Demon Buddha.
“Om!!!”
The Big Black Buddha Mother called out the Six-Word Bright Mantra again, her arm wielding the wheel to generate curse inscriptions of black light, protecting her just like before.
Using the same technique!
However, as Xu Yang’s whip came crashing down…
“Boom!!!”
The sound of the whip was like thunder, shattering the black light, shaking the Big Black Buddha Mother’s body, her back arms and the circular magic artifact exploded together.
The Big Black Buddha Mother’s six arms danced behind her, each holding one of the six magic artifacts: the wheel, lamp, pearl, hook sickle, hammer, and Vajra Pestle.
Each of the six magic artifacts had its own strength, the wheel for defense, the lamp for self-enhancement, the pearl for weakening the enemy, and the hook sickle, hammer, and Vajra Pestle were mainly for offensive curse spells.
Now the wheel had shattered, the Buddha Mother was left defenseless.
Xu Yang thundered forth, striking directly at the Buddha Mother’s golden body.
“Boom!!!”
The chaotic whip rumbled with thunder, hitting heavily on the Buddha Mother’s golden body, causing a heaven-shaking noise.
The Buddha Mother’s golden body tremored, cracking with countless fissures, with billows of demonic qi surging forth.
The situation was reversed once more, with the demon at the brink of life and death.
“Om Mani Padme Hum!”
Perhaps only instinct remained, but with an instinct to survive, the Big Black Buddha Mother did not want to just wait for death. From her empty, abyss-like face, suddenly echoed a true Buddhist chant, six words in rapid succession, instantaneously flashing out like lightning.
The Six-Word Bright Mantra erupted in an instant, the Big Black Buddha Mother’s terrifying hollow face suddenly enlarged, like a massive abyss mouth, devouring the entwined lightning and the splendid light surrounding Xu Yang.
Ultimately…
“Gurgle!!!”
The lightning ran amok, raging furiously towards her, engulfing everything into the Buddha Mother’s mouth.
But within an instant, within the Buddha Mother’s large belly, five-colored lightning was visible.
Azure, yellow, crimson, white, black, the Five Elements Divine Thunder combined into one, bursting out from Buddha Mother’s belly.
From bottom to top, from inside to outside!
“Pfft!!!”
The five elements fused together, with the force of a mighty thunder, a sword thrust pierced the demon’s body, shattering the Buddha Mother’s head.
“Boom!!!”
A Yang Yun cloud rose, black curses filled the sky like scattered rain.
A sword soared to the heavens, tearing open the darkened sky.
Dawn had arrived, the sun rose from the east, shining light upon Wuzhe Lake, revealing a scene of carnage, silently narrating the calamity of the Demon Catastrophe.
