Chapter 635: Lord Night Demon, Please Show Yourself and Help Me!
Wisdom King stomped his foot, “I’ll borrow the Thousand Buddha Light!”
Following his shout, rays of light burst forth from the hundreds of temples on Mount Koya.
At the same time, a series of orderly and powerful chants rang out, as if there were up to 1,000 people chanting. There was the sound of wooden bells being hit and bell chimes.
“What’s happening?”
Chiba Yos.h.i.+ko, who was inside Kongobuji, suddenly had a change in expression. Her scalp turned numb as she looked at the 1,000 monks that suddenly appeared in front of her.
All the monks sat on the ground and chanted with their eyes closed.
Under these sounds, the multicolored light on top of the over a hundred temples became increasingly vast. In an instant, more than a hundred rays of purple light rose into the clouds.
Boom!
Hundreds of purple pillars of light descended from the clouds following a loud bang. The pillars of light sealed the area within a kilometer around Ye Chen. From afar, it looked like a prison built by hundreds of purple pillars.
Several dozen kilometers away, the j.a.panese looked at Mount Koya.
They saw purple clouds swirling above Mount Koya, and in the clouds, there was a huge golden Buddha. The Buddha looked down on the entire Mount Koya like an angry Vajra.
“Miracle, a miracle!”
“It must be Buddha showing himself!”
“…”
In an instant, countless people knelt towards the distant Mount Koya, their faces filled with excitement and devotion. They had lived in j.a.pan for so long, and they had never seen such a magical scene.
Almost at the same time in Enryakuji of Mountain Hiei located in the northeast of Kyoto, one of the two major towns of j.a.panese Buddhism other than Reigao, an old monk seemed to have entered a meditative state as he looked towards the direction of the tall plains.
He muttered, “Thousand Buddha Light Formation, that’s the Thousand Buddha Light Formation. The rumors are actually true!”
“Master, what’s the Thousand Buddha Light Formation?” A young novice monk asked politely.
The old monk sighed and said, “Rumor has it that Kongobuji was created by Kobo Dais.h.i.+ Kukai and approved by Emperor Saga. At the beginning of the temple, Master Kukai absorbed the essence of Chinese formations and used the terrain of Reigao’s eight-leaf lotus flower to create the formation.
Once the formation is activated, the caster will be able to mobilize a portion of the power of the mountains and rivers. However, he will need to light up the Thousand Buddha Light at the same time to activate the formation!
Based on what I know, if one wants to activate the Thousand Buddha Light, 1,000 monks will need to hold the heart of nirvana at the same time. In other words, once the formation is activated, these 1,000 monks will die.”
At this point, his turbid gaze shot straight into the sky, “Therefore, this formation has not been used for more than 1,000 years. Now that the Thousand Buddha Light Formation has been activated, it means that Kongobuji has encountered a great enemy.
Who could it be?”
His expression suddenly changed, “Could it be the East Asia No.1, Mad Southern Ye?!”
…
On Mount Koya, Wisdom King’s entire body was enshrouded in a Buddha light at the moment. He looked like a real Buddha on earth, “Hahaha, Mad Southern Ye, you didn’t expect Mount Koya to have such tricks, did you?”
“Formation?”
Ye Chen lifted his eyes to look at the purple light pillars around him. He charged while moving, but he seemed to have hit an invisible wall and was bounced back.
“Mad Southern Ye, it’s futile. Just give up!”
Wisdom King’s face was filled with ridicule, “This formation was created by Master Kukai. Master Kukai was also an Origin Energy cultivator. It’s simply wishful thinking for you to break his formation!”
Origin Energy cultivators were spell masters who cultivated spells and abilities. Once they reached Origin Energy, they would be able to comprehend a trace of the profound meaning of heaven and earth, transforming something rotten into something magical. It was also the level that many Spell Masters pursued throughout their lives.
“Mad Southern Ye, this is what I’ve prepared for you. Die!
Black Tortoise, Green Dragon, White Tiger, and Red Phoenix. Feng Shui Four Symbols of Mount Koya, heed my command!”
Boom!
The Mount Koya under Ye Chen’s feet suddenly shook as if there was an earthquake. Even so, the light pillars that surrounded him did not move at all.
Roar!
With four extremely sharp sounds, a beam of light shot into the sky from all four directions.
A 30 meters long green dragon leaped out from the east!
A ferocious tiger appeared from the west!
A large scarlet bird flew from the south!
A giant tortoise sh.e.l.l appeared in the north!
It was none other than the Black Tortoise, Green Dragon, White Tiger, and Red Phoenix. They were not real ent.i.ties, but the manifestation of the spiritual energy of Mount Koya.
Even so, when the four feng shui symbols appeared, the visual impact was extraordinary.
Wisdom King shouted, “Kill him!”
The Feng Shui Four Symbols charged at Ye Chen at the same time. Strangely, they did not feel sluggish at all when they pa.s.sed through the formation that sealed Ye Chen.
Boom!
The four giant beasts created a huge commotion, almost causing the sky to change color.
“When I was at my peak, I ate dragon’s liver and phoenix’s gallbladder. The Red Phoenix’s ancestor was my divine beast, and the Black Tortoise’s ancestor respected me. Now, they’re merely four spirit bodies. What can they do to me?”
Not only was Ye Chen fearless facing such a scene, he even said with a disdainful smile, “I’ll break your so-called Buddha Light formation with my saber today!”
Slas.h.!.+
Ye Chen waved the Master Destruction Saber in his hand. A saber qi that was over 30 meters long pierced through the sky. It tore the sky and the ground. The sharp saber qi slashed at the Green Dragon.
Boom!
The Green Dragon of the four symbols collapsed on the spot.
Seeing this, Wisdom King was stunned, “How is this possible?!”
“Second slas.h.!.+
Third slas.h.!.+
Fourth slas.h.!.+”
Ye Chen did not hesitate. He slashed consecutively without stopping. Under Wisdom King’s horrified gaze, the remaining White Tiger, Red Phoenix, and Black Tortoise were killed with one slas.h.!.+
At that moment, his saber qi covered a radius of 3,000 meters, as if he was possessed by a saber demon that had slaughtered countless lives, “This is the reward that I’ve given you. Are you satisfied?”
Pu!
Wisdom King spat a mouthful of blood and roared, “So what if you’ve broken the four symbols? You’re still trapped in the formation. I can get reinforcements to suppress you!”
“Is that so?”
Ye Chen smiled in disdain. A saber qi that was over 30 meters long erupted from the saber in his hand again. The saber qi slashed the formation barrier around him!
Boom!
With a thunderous boom, the ground shook as if there was an earthquake, and the barrier began to fade.
At the same time, among the 1,000 monks who gathered outside the temple, 100 of them spat blood on the spot and died on the ground. The rest of them had a drastic change in expression and closed their eyes to chant the scriptures again.
Meanwhile, Wisdom King was spitting blood continuously.
It could be said that the person who suffered the most was him. He was the core of the formation. When the formation was damaged, his mind would be affected as well.
Slas.h.!.+
Another slas.h.!.+
The formation barrier weakened again, and another hundred monks fell to the ground and died!
Slas.h.!.+
“Kill them all!”
Ye Chen slashed out more than ten times in one breath.
In the end, almost all of the monks in Mount Koya were dead or injured. All the Buddha statues in the temple shattered, and the formation barrier that trapped him had also disappeared!
When he looked again, Wisdom King was covered in blood. He knelt on one knee as he panted heavily. The wrinkles on his face increased at a visible rate.
Ye Chen approached him while holding his saber, “Is this all you’ve got after living for hundreds of years? If that’s the case, you’ve lived for nothing for hundreds of years!”
“Mad Southern Ye, don’t celebrate too soon!”
Wisdom King gritted his teeth and suddenly knelt on the ground. He roared at a temple at the foot of the mountain, “Lord Night Demon, please show yourself and help me!”
