Chapter 31 Tathagata Divine Palm?
Kuang Chu'e swiftly flew to the sky above the eastern district, peering down at the rampaging vines below, his brows furrowing, exuding an imposing air without even being angry.
The Four Elders of Great Wei immediately controlled their giant fans to fly in front of him and greeted him.
"You've come too."
Kuang Chu'e said calmly, his indifferent demeanor seemingly disregarding the importance of the Four Elders of Great Wei.
Although the Four Elders of Great Wei had lived for over a thousand years and were considered undying elders of Great Wei, they were not the strongest there.
The bearded cultivator smiled and said, "I didn't expect Western Buddha to send you, what is the purpose?"
Kuang Chu'e glanced at him and said, "To propagate Buddhist teachings and to universalize salvation in Mystical City."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Four Elders of Great Wei slightly darkened.
This statement implied another meaning, "This city is now under Western Buddha's control!"
Kuang Chu'e scanned the surroundings, his frown deepening, murmuring, "The Sacred Lotus of Qiling, didn't expect it to reappear, could there be a Sacred Body of Qiling within Mystical City?"
With that thought, he raised his right hand and swept it downward.
In an instant, a golden giant palm, resembling a huge mountain, fell from the sky, pushing apart the rolling dust, and suppressed the giant vines below. The buildings nearby appeared tiny in front of the golden giant palm, and the whole city could feel the trembling.
A palm suppressing the city!
Everyone was stunned, including the reporters in the helicopters.
So were the citizens watching on their phones and televisions.
Was this a spell?
"My heavens! What is this? A spell? Divine Power?"
"Tathagata Divine Palm?"
"Is that monk a Bodhisattva or an Arhat?"
"This power… is he even human?"
"This is a true cultivator!"
The whole city boiled over, Kuang Chu'e's entrance was shockingly impressive, second only to the earlier scene of Su Yie fighting tens of thousands of Demon Beasts alone.
Cultivators like Wux Qingyao and Mo Haosheng from the Luoshui Sect also felt their scalps tingle watching this.
This was the Great Buddha of the Western Buddha Dynasty, immensely powerful, surpassing even the Fusion of Heartbeat—a terrifying existence!
Su Yie was also stunned, even he was not confident in facing the golden giant palm from just now.
The opponent must have transcended Fusion of Heartbeat!
In Human Clan cultivation, there are stages such as Qi Rushing Through the Eight Meridians, Spirit Sea Awakening, Embracing the Dan into Law, and Fusion of Heartbeat. Fusion of Heartbeat is equivalent to the Divine Power Demon King of the Demon Clan, meaning this Buddha is stronger than Black Scaled King, Elder Lord Qi Yang, and the Four Elders of Great Wei!
"Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"
Su Yie murmured to himself, the Buddhists seem to love slaying demons, second only to Daoists.
The story of The Legend of the White Snake is well known to everyone.
Especially that line from Fa Hai: "Patron, your wife is a long worm."
Kuang Chu'e stood on the Golden Plate, his brows tightly knit, never relaxing.
"Didn't expect the Sacred Lotus of Qiling to be so powerful just upon its emergence, can't make another move against it, otherwise the whole city will be in trouble."
His cultivation realm was the highest present, and he could feel the terrifying murderous intent coming from the Sacred Lotus of Qiling.
If he were to strike at the Sacred Lotus of Qiling again, he feared that all the city's residents might be devoured by the Sacred Lotus of Qiling in a blood sacrifice.
Just then, he suddenly noticed Su Yie.
Such strong Qi and blood!
Kuang Chu'e immediately thought of that Half-Demon who had killed the Black Scaled King, as Mystical City's sudden arrival had made the Seven Dynasties very concerned, from the court to the common people. The miserable death of the Black Scaled King had also made the Half-Demon of Mystical City famous worldwide.
With that thought, Kuang Chu'e flew directly towards Su Yie.
The Golden Plate carried him above the shopping mall, and the reporters in the helicopter also shifted their cameras there.
When they saw Kuang Chu'e about to confront Su Yie, anxiety tightened in the hearts of everyone in the city.
Monk slaying demon stories were numerous in Hua Xia, and like Su Yie, they couldn't help but assume the worst.
At present, Su Yie was the savior of the entire city, and no one wanted to see him get obliterated by Kuang Chu'e.
"So you are the Half-Demon who killed the Black Scaled King?"
Kuang Chu'e asked, his expression neither disgusted nor excited, but incredibly calm.
Su Yie, also expressionless, replied, "What if I am? Do you have business with me?"
"You saved the entire city by yourself, which shows you have a kind heart. If you turn back now, you will surely have a prosperous future. Why not come with me to the Western Buddha Dynasty and rid yourself of all demon traits by joining the Buddhism Sect?" Kuang Chu'e went straight to the point, his voice strong enough to be captured by cameras from a distance.
Whooosh—
The entire city was in an uproar; a monster joining the Buddhism Sect, could that ever be a good thing?
The Four Elders of Great Wei looked uneasy, but they did not dare interrupt Kuang Chu'e.
Kuang Chu'e was royalty of the Western Buddha Dynasty, and to offend him was to offend the entire dynasty.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Though Great Wei was on the rise, it was still somewhat inferior to the Western Buddha Dynasty, which was second only to Mighty Tang.
Su Yie frowned. The Four Elders of Great Wei had invited him, and now so had the Western Buddha Dynasty. Had he become such a desirable asset?
But he did not want to become anyone else's lackey!
"Sorry, I'm used to being independent and don't wish to join any of the Seven Dynasties," Su Yie declined.
At this, the Four Elders of Great Wei were overjoyed, while Kuang Chu'e frowned.
From afar, Mo Haosheng and other disciples gaped. The Western Buddha Dynasty had invited Su Yie, and he dared to refuse?
If it were them, they would have accepted straight away!
The Western Buddha Dynasty, being the second most frightening power among the Seven Dynasties, had many sects and families under its command that were even stronger than the Luoshui Sect!
Wux Qingyao examined Su Yie, her eyes full of curiosity.
So this was the swordsmanship prodigy valued by Emperor Su?
"You've strayed onto the path of demons, and without proper guidance, you will eventually harm the Human Clan. I cannot let you go; I hope you'll reconsider!" said Kuang Chu'e, making Su Yie's expression grow cold.
An invitation wasn't working, so he was resorting to threats now?
The reaction from the Four Elders of Great Wei was also one of disapproval towards Kuang Chu'e's actions.
Of course, if they possessed the power of Kuang Chu'e, they probably would have done the same.
"Refuse! Keep refusing!"
Mo Haosheng internally roared, knowing that if Su Yie refused again, it would surely provoke Kuang Chu'e!
He definitely did not want Su Yie to join the Western Buddha Dynasty, for that would mean he couldn't seek revenge in the future.
Sure enough, Su Yie refused again, "I don't like being threatened!"
As he spoke, Su Yie flipped his hand to draw the Zhou Wu Sword, readying for battle.
This scene made everyone's blood boil; each person yearned for freedom, and Su Yie's attitude was admirable yet also a cause for concern among the citizens.
Kuang Chu'e immediately grew angry. Being so openly disregarded by Su Yie in front of so many people, did Su Yie truly believe he was Sword Saint Xia Tianyi, qualified to refuse an invitation from the Seven Dynasties?
With a boom!
Kuang Chu'e's aura exploded, stirring up the surrounding dust, and in that moment, he transformed into an enraged Buddha meant to purge all monsters and demons of the world.
Su Yie snorted coldly, likewise unleashing his power. His muscles swelled, and his white shirt burst from the strain, turning into tatters. Under the sunlight, his upper body shimmered with a metallic texture, looking as though it were forged from steel, a sight of immense visual impact.
He couldn't flee; he still had to wait for Nan Xiaopao, so he had no choice but to fight!
It was also an excellent opportunity to test the fruits of his recent training!
"This guy is really seeking death! He even dares to offend the Western Buddha Dynasty!"
"He's grown arrogant, thinking that after killing the Black Scaled King, he is invincible!"
"Hahaha, this Half-Demon is as good as dead!"
"This Great Buddha is even stronger than our sect master, his death is certain!"
The disciples of the Luoshui Sect began discussing, all agreeing that Su Yie was doomed.
