Chapter 120: The Formidable Direct Disciples

Inside the Star World Realm, on a desolate wilderness.

A stream of earth-yellow light surged, and the originally flat ground suddenly rolled like waves. Subsequently, a boat slowly emerged.

In the depths of the boat, Guang Hai stood with his hands behind his back, regulating his breath and meditating.

At the same time, Guang Ming walked over quickly and took out a diagram scroll: “Senior Brother, the disciples below have already refined twelve array diagrams.”

“Why only twelve?”

Guang Hai took the scroll and frowned. “This matter concerns the encirclement and suppression of the Demonic Path and the promotion of the Righteous Dharma. Wasn’t the rule set previously to refine thirty-six array diagrams?”

Guang Ming looked helpless upon hearing this and smiled bitterly. “Among the thirty-six array diagrams, ten were originally planned to be refined by the [Dragon Legion] disciples. As a result, Senior Brother, you know… plus you demanded action in advance, time was limited, so twelve array diagrams were already the limit.”

“You mean to say it’s my fault?” Guang Hai narrowed his eyes.

“How could that be!”

Guang Ming immediately straightened his expression. “I mean the other disciples are simply too lazy. Junior Brother will go urge them right now and strive to refine a few more.”

Only then did Guang Hai nod with satisfaction.

According to the plan previously discussed with the Dao Court, they were supposed to advance step by step, using a massive number of formations to trap the Saint Sect to death in this place.

But now the situation had changed. Since someone among the Saint Sect disciples cultivated the Nine Transformations Dragon Art, Guang Hai didn’t intend to act according to the original plan anymore. Otherwise, what if that demon head who cultivated the Nine Transformations Dragon Art was killed by the Dao Court? He immediately ordered the Pure Land disciples to act in advance.

Anyway, in his view, his side already had victory firmly in hand.

Because Guang Ming didn’t leak Lu Yang’s strength, although Guang Hai was shocked and angry at the total annihilation of the [Dragon Legion], he didn’t find it inconceivable.

After all, that was the Primordial Saint Sect.

And according to Guang Hai’s judgment, even if the Primordial Saint Sect could annihilate the [Dragon Legion], their own losses must be significant. How could they contend with the gathering of the Eight Legions?

Moreover, under the joint calculation of the Dao Court and the Pure Land, the Saint Sect lost almost one-third of its disciples as soon as they entered the World Realm. Two of the seven Direct Disciples died, one of whom was personally beheaded by Guang Hai. Although they were indeed somewhat tricky, they weren’t as formidable as the rumors said.

Thinking of this, Guang Hai became increasingly confident:

“Everyone says the Saint Sect is fierce, but in my opinion, they’re just so-so. Wait until I take the top prize this time and establish great merit, so I can also show my face in front of the Bodhisattva…”

Just then, Guang Hai’s spiritual perception was suddenly startled.

In the next second, a loud bang came from the Earth-Traveling Boat beneath Guang Hai’s feet, as if hitting a reef. It abruptly stopped sailing, and the precious light shook violently!

“…What happened?”

Guang Hai immediately communicated with the spirit of the Earth-Traveling Boat’s spirit treasure. Then he heard a painful cry for help: “Someone… someone is attacking me!”

“What?”

Guang Hai was instantly stunned. Then, as if sensing something, he raised his head. Almost simultaneously, all the Pure Land Buddhist cultivators inside the Earth-Traveling Boat also looked towards the sky above their heads. They saw a streak of spiritual light piercing through the void darkness and rushing towards them. It was a black shuttle, which boomed open right above everyone’s heads!

In the next second, a group of Saint Sect disciples filed out!

Five Direct Disciples, seven Great Perfection of Qi Refining, dozens of Late Stage of Qi Refining. Each one wore a ferocious smile, their baleful qi soaring into the sky, instantly shrouding more than half of the dome of heaven!

Only at this moment did Guang Hai react.

But even after reacting, his face was still full of disbelief. The demon heads are attacking proactively? Instead of thinking about holding their ground, they actively attacked!?

“Everyone get out of the way!”

The first to attack was Daoist Jiao Long. He grinned, tearing off the Daoist robe on his body directly. His seemingly normal flesh and blood expanded instantly!

In the blink of an eye, his left hand grew dense scales, and five fingers stuck together, transforming into two dragon horns soaring into the sky. His palm split open, revealing eerie white sharp teeth, actually turning into a hideous dragon head just like that… His remaining organs also changed simultaneously.

Intestines burst out of his stomach, turning into a dragon tail.

The remaining limbs and the fifth limb turned into dragon claws. His head shrank inward, embedded behind the dragon head like a reverse scale. Between breaths, monstrous blood qi swarmed in.

He really turned into a dragon!

Or rather, a thing that looked very much like a dragon. However, whether it was the piled-up flesh or the massive yet chaotic blood qi, everything was filled with intense weirdness.

“Hahahaha!”

In the next second, the evil flood dragon rode a blood cloud and smashed directly into the Earth-Traveling Boat with a boom. The dragon head let out a long cry, and in an instant, only a fierce roar remained between heaven and earth.

Rumble!

Instantly, the Earth-Traveling Boat suffered a heavy blow, its precious light almost shattered. Inside the boat, the group of Buddhist cultivators with lower cultivation covered their ears in pain.

Meanwhile, the other four Direct Disciples followed closely behind.

“Holy monks, do I look beautiful to you?”

Bi Feiyuan fell into the Earth-Traveling Boat. Without another word, she directly burst her clothes. The thin gauze fell, and a body as white as snow instantly fell into everyone’s sight.

All the Buddhist cultivators who took in the entire scenery instantly felt muddled. Keeping the precepts became difficult, and the Primordial Essence in their bodies rushed out completely in an instant. After the Primordial Essence was exhausted, it was the Blood Qi, and finally, even their souls were rushed out together.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

For a time, more than ten Buddhist cultivators fell to the ground, their faces still wearing expressions of extreme bliss.

Besides them, there were dozens of Buddhist cultivators who, although closing their eyes in time, found it difficult to expel the heart demons. They could only retreat while silently reciting scriptures to suppress the desires in their hearts.

Splurt!

In the next second, Xu Xin’s figure emerged quietly. He backstabbed and finished off a Buddhist cultivator who was suppressing his heart demons, then mysteriously disappeared from the spot.

Every time he appeared, he would take away the life of a Buddhist cultivator.

In this regard, Chong Ming was completely opposite to him. He didn’t disdain to hide his figure at all. Merging with the sword light, he rushed into the crowd and rampaged.

“Kill all these bald donkeys!”

Meanwhile, the remaining Saint Sect disciples also fell from the sky one after another, killing their way straight into the interior of the Earth-Traveling Boat and beginning to fight pairwise with the Buddhist cultivators.

“Holy monks, why are you unwilling to look at me?”

Bi Feiyuan moved like lightning. While stirring up a storm of blood, she constantly whispered softly, “Since you deliver all sentient beings, why not deliver me?”

“Speak not of royal power and wealth; fear not commandments and precepts…”

“Holy monks, let me help you cultivate…”

Just at this moment, Guang Hai, located in the deepest part of the Earth-Traveling Boat, finally took action.

“Evildoer!!!”

He uttered immeasurable Buddha sounds from his mouth, expounding the Dharma like thunder: “If I become a Buddha, and celestial beings in my land give rise to thoughts of attachment to the body, I shall not attain supreme enlightenment!”

Wherever the thunder sound passed, the Buddhist cultivators ceased self-attachment; thus there was no self. Without self, there was no greed, anger, or ignorance, nor life and death. The myriad desires originally stirred up by Bi Feiyuan dissipated instantly. Even when looking at the naked body displayed by Bi Feiyuan again, their eyes were incomparably clear, without a trace of wavering.

Seeing this scene, Bi Feiyuan’s pretty face instantly turned black:

“Hmph, that’s why I hate bald donkeys…”

Without Bi Feiyuan’s containment, the reacting Buddhist cultivators quickly reorganized their formation. Beams of Buddha Light soared into the sky, manifesting Vajra Dharma Bodies one by one.

“Amitabha…”

Inside the Earth-Traveling Boat, Guang Hai looked grim. “Without the [Dragon Legion], the Eight Legions are missing a corner. Otherwise, today I would make sure these demon heads have no return!”

With the Eight Legions, hundreds of Qi Refining Buddhist cultivators joining hands could construct eight Vajra Dharma Bodies.

And if the eight Vajra Dharma Bodies combined again, they could borrow an Arhat stature comparable to Foundation Establishment from the Pure Land, which was the Pure Land’s trump card.

But now, due to the total annihilation of the [Dragon Legion], more than half of this trump card was ruined.

Although he still had remedial methods, the price was too great. Unless absolutely necessary, he was unwilling to use them. Fortunately, the situation was still under his control.

“Seven Vajra Dharma Bodies are enough.”

Guang Hai smiled coldly. “A surprise breakout attack can be considered ingenious, but unfortunately, it is still a waste of effort. Today, I will let you all be buried in this place…”

However, just then, the corner of Guang Hai’s eye twitched suddenly.

At this moment, he was in the deepest part of the Earth-Traveling Boat, protected by layers of formations, yet he felt a gaze as sharp as a sword land on him.

“…Not good!”

The instant he was startled by the gaze, Guang Hai wanted to immediately recall the Eight Legions to protect himself.

However, it was too late!

Outside the Earth-Traveling Boat, above the dome of heaven.

Lu Yang rode the wind, his expression indifferent, silently calculating in his hand. Just as Guang Hai sensed his gaze, he also abruptly raised the corner of his mouth:

“Found you.”

In the next second, he crashed down with a boom!

Almost simultaneously, Guang Hai felt a majestic spiritual power smash through layers of obstacles. Like a mountain collapsing or the sky tilting and the earth overturning, it killed its way right in front of him!
