Chapter 262: The Great Demon Breaks the Seal
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Not good, there’s a mouse…” you immediately cried out.
[Monk Void, Monk Virtue, and Monk Grunter instantly looked toward the Guanyin statue.
[They saw a black-furred mouse the size of a wolf-dog pouncing toward the jade bottle in the statue’s hand at breakneck speed.
“Evil creature…”
[Monk Grunter’s cultivation was the strongest on the scene. The moment he discovered the mouse, he waved his large hand, and a light projection transformed into a large hand, grabbing toward the mouse.
!!
[However, Li Gang was not a small demon who had just gained sentience. When he saw the huge hand grabbing at him, he immediately stepped on the statue and dodged the huge hand.
[He swept his long tail and swept away the candlestick on the offering table, landing on the gauze curtain.
[The lamp oil sprinkled on the gauze curtain, and a spark instantly ignited a huge fire.
[The fire expanded instantly. The temple was made of wood, so the altar and the praying mat at the bottom were the first to burn.
“Quickly go get water to put out the fire. Leave this mouse to me!” shouted Monk Grunter and continued trying to kill the mouse beside the statue.
[Monk Virtue, on the other hand, obediently went to get water to put out the huge raging fire.
[Instead of going to fetch water, you stopped the jumping mouse. You had a premonition that something big was going to happen.
[As expected, although Monk Grunter’s attack was powerful, the mouse’s speed was also abnormally fast. After dodging a few times, it finally found an opportunity and whipped the jade bottle in the statue’s hand with its tail.
[The jade bottle was instantly sent flying and fell to the ground.
[Under the temple, the mouse ancestor had been sensing the seal. The moment the jade bottle fell, it turned into a gust of demonic wind, and a tunnel leading to the top of the mountain appeared. The black wind pa.s.sed through, and the mouse’s figure completely escaped the seal.
[At that moment, the entire mountain began to shake violently. The rolling wind blew, the mountain collapsed, and the earth cracked.
[The main hall also began to shake left and right. It was already burning with fire, and now with this violent shaking, the main hall looked like it was about to collapse.
[You instantly escaped from the temple, and Monk Grunter followed closely behind.
[Just as you escaped, the main hall instantly collapsed.
[Amidst the dust that filled the sky, a black gust of wind blew over, dispersing the dust. On the ruins of the main hall, there was an incomparably huge mouse looking at you coldly.
[Along with its appearance, the shaking of the entire small mountain finally stopped.
‘This is actually a Nascent Soul mouse!?’
[Your eyes were slightly dazed. Although your current cultivation wasn’t high, you still had the experience from before. The mouse in front of you was actually a Nascent Soul demon.
“Is this Bodhisattva sick? A mere Nascent Soul mouse, and you still need to suppress it? It won’t be long before you kill it. Moreover, you should at least find a few Golden Core and Foundation Establishment disciples when suppressing a Nascent Soul demon. You did it on purpose!”
[Finally, you couldn’t hold it in any longer and ridiculed that somewhat ignorant bodhisattva.
[At this time, Monk Void had just returned from fetching water. After seeing the large mouse, he shouted with a trembling voice, “Not good! That great demon escaped!”
[At that moment, Monk Grunter stood out. His eyes stared fixedly at the large mouse as he spoke to you all. “Junior Brothers, follow this penniless monk to vanquish demons and devils…”
[With Monk Grunter taking the lead, Monk Void and Monk Virtue were also prepared for battle.
[On the other hand, you felt extremely frustrated. A Foundation Establishment and three Qi Refinement cultivators wanted to take down a Nascent Soul demon? Did he take the wrong medicine!?
[Even if this great demon had been sealed for hundreds of years and didn’t have even 1/10 of his cultivation, it wasn’t an existence that a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator could go up against.
“Hahahaha, you little monks want to deal with our ancestor? Ancestor, let me do it for you. Kill them…”
[Without waiting for the big mouse to speak, Li Gang’s figure appeared once again. This time, he was no longer the mini him from before. Instead, he had returned to his normal human form.
“It’s you!?”
“Lord Li!?”
[Monk Void and Monk Virtue had seen Li Gang before. When they saw the mouse transform into Li Gang, they immediately guessed that the replacement of the gauze curtain and the fire just now were all part of the demon’s scheme.
“Hmph! Evildoer, how dare you trespa.s.s into the Buddhist temple and break the seal!? You can all stay here…”
[Without a shred of fear, Monk Grunter directly recited a scripture silently. Following that, a few golden-armored Guardian Heavenly Kings instantly flew out from the direction of the temple’s entrance.
[They were all Guardian Heavenly Kings, like the one that had killed a large number of mice during the day.
[However, only one appeared during the day, and this time, four appeared.
“Monster, you actually broke the seal and snuck out. I won’t let you live today…”
[The Guardian Heavenly King in the lead had a powerful aura that was not weaker than the large mouse. He directly charged at the mouse.
[The large mouse did not panic. It let out a loud cry and fought with the golden-armored Guardian Heavenly King.
[The other three Guardian Heavenly Kings attacked Li Gang at the same time.
[Although it was three against one, Li Gang’s cultivation was not weak at all. He could easily deal with the attacks of the three Guardian Heavenly Kings.
[This battle was no longer something that a few small monks could partic.i.p.ate in. You stood together with Monk Void and Monk Virtue and asked in puzzlement, “Senior Brothers, can the Guardian Heavenly Kings win?”
[It wasn’t that you couldn’t see clearly what was going on on the battlefield. The main point was that the Guardian Heavenly Kings needed to rely on the power of faith in the temple.
[This temple had existed for hundreds of years and had acc.u.mulated a lot of power of faith.
[However, just now, the temple hall had collapsed. That was the most important place to store faith. Since the temple had collapsed, the power of faith was naturally dissipating rapidly.
“There shouldn’t be a problem. Although the Guardian Heavenly Kings won’t be able to hold on for long, that demon has been sealed for hundreds of years. Its strength has already been greatly reduced. In addition, it hasn’t consumed any blood essence, so it won’t be able to hold on for long,” Monk Virtue said with a confident expression.
[Sure enough, just as Monk Virtue finished speaking, the Guardian Heavenly King directly lashed the golden whip in his hand onto the head of the large mouse, creating a hole of dozens of centimeters on it.
[The entire mouse was sent flying a great distance away.
[The Guardian Heavenly King pursued the victory and was about to kill the large mouse when the large mouse turned into a demonic wind and instantly flew to Li Gang’s side.
“Ancestor, what should we do?”
[Although Li Gang could easily deal with the three Guardian Heavenly Kings, he didn’t have any way to deal with the Nascent Soul Guardian Heavenly King.
“With that guy here, we can’t run away. We can only leave this place after we kill him.”
[Beside Li Gang, the big mouse also turned into an old man with the head of a mouse and the body of a human.
“Ancestor, I’ve prepared a million-mouse army outside. Why don’t we let them all go up the mountain now?”
