Stranger Danger-Chapter 1145: Three-Headed Arhat

“Give me the items.”

Blue-eyed Tiger turned to look at the petite man who was still recovering from his near-death experience with a raised hand. When he received no response, he slapped the man in the face and said angrily, “Coward. Useless trash.”

The petite man including the two who died in the cave were orphans Blue-eyed Tiger had raised from a young age. They were no children of his, however. He used special drugs and secret arts to suppress their growth and control their thoughts. For all intents and purposes, they were his slaves.

He had raised many more orphans like the petite man, so he didn’t mind losing one or two at all.

Honestly, if not for the fact that the petite man was holding the treasures from the stupa, he wouldn’t have bothered rescuing him at all.

“Y-Yes, godfather!”

It was only now the petite man jolted back to reality and produced the golden box inside his Nature’s Shell. Then, he carefully handed it to Blue-eyed Tiger.

The Seven Treasure Veluriyam Branch was held by another petite man who had been crushed by the large hand. Naturally, it was lost to them.

Generally speaking, people in this trade would split up the treasures they found. It was because putting all your eggs in one basket, especially in a high risk trade like this, usually resulted in a complete loss.

When Blue-eyed Tiger accepted the golden box and gave it a look over, he exclaimed in pleasant surprise, “Kalan wood and gold sandalwood powder?”

The golden box was made of Kalan wood, and the gold “paint” was really gold sandalwood powder.

Kalan wood was a Buddhist wood normally found in a Buddhist sanctuary. It was precious because Buddhist will fueled its growth. Gold sandalwood powder was created from the blood of an enlightened senior monk who cultivated an Arhat Golden Body. It possessed the power to suppress darkness and repel evil.

Both the Kalan wood and the gold sandalwood powder were incredibly valuable items to a Buddhist sect, but in this case, they were used to fashion a box to contain a sutra. The sutra inside the box could only be more valuable.

Blue-eyed Tiger cautiously opened the golden box and unveiled the sutra. Once again, golden light shot into the sky and even affected the illusory Buddhist temples and Buddhas in the sky. Buddhist sounds began resounding, and golden lotuses floated toward the ground.

“Just look at this spectacle! It must be an ultimate treasure of the Mara Sect!”

He already knew from the spectacle before that the sutra was extraordinary, but it had also happened a thousand meters underneath the ice. It wasn’t until now that he truly felt its power and splendor with his flesh and blood.

For a moment, Blue-eyed Tiger simply held the sutra with a dazed expression.

“Boss? Are you alright?”

Someone called out to Blue-eyed Tiger after waiting for a moment and receiving no response from the man.

When Blue-eyed Tiger still did not give a response, the asker stepped forward to pat him on the shoulder.

His hand had just made contact with Blue-eyed Tiger’s skin when the man abruptly spun around and slapped him in the head.

Caught completely off guard, the man’s head exploded like a watermelon and spilled blood and brain matter everywhere.

“Die... you’re all going to die...”

Covered in blood and gore, Blue-eyed Tiger cracked a strange, vicious grin at the group. “Keke... you’re all going to die here!”

The voice wasn’t Blue-eyed Tiger’s voice, however. It was the voice of the first petite man who died.

Pssh!

Before anyone could react, Blue-eyed Tiger’s flanks suddenly split open to reveal six arms. Each arm was as thin as a piece of firewood and overflowing with evil.

“Die! You’re all going to die!”

Blue-eyed Tiger laughed like a madman as he charged toward the group.

One man failed to dodge out of the way in time and was ripped in half for his troubles.

“Boss is possessed by a ghost! Run!”

The rest of the group felt chilled to their core. They immediately scattered in every direction like rabbits.

Unfortunately for them, they were trapped inside multiple arrays and restrictions right now. Blue-eyed Tiger was the one who set up the arrays, and only he possessed the skill, knowledge, and right to unlock them. In short, there was nowhere to run.

As if that wasn’t bad enough, Blue-eyed Tiger was displaying a level of power that was far beyond that of a Half-Step Trueman. Like a tiger loose in a sheep’s pen, it took him only breaths to slaughter everyone.

No one had a good death. They had all been ripped in half.

As the Buddhist thieves died, The thin, withered-looking arms hanging beside Blue-eyed Tiger’s flanks slowly grew full and healthy.

Then, Blue-eyed Tiger’s head turned a hundred and eighty degrees around to stare straight at Ye Qing, Yi Pin, and Old Man of Snowy Mountain.

“Heavens!”

Yi Pin gasped at the sight of this. Old Man of Snowy Mountain was wearing a severe expression as well. It wasn’t because they were surprised by the jumpscare, but because Blue-eyed Tiger’s appearance was beyond anomalous and scary.

Right now, Blue-eyed Tiger’s face was completely wrapped by the roll of sutra and hidden from view. Blood could be seen flowing profusely down his neck. Despite this, the sutra continued to emit warmth and brightness.

Although Blue-eyed Tiger’s face was hidden from view right now, both Yi Pin and Old Man of Snowy Mountain were certain that he was staring straight at them.

As expected, Blue-eyed Tiger pounced toward them the next moment.

Seeing this, Old Man of Snowy Mountain rushed forward to meet Blue-eyed Tiger in a whirlwind of snow and ice as cold light blasted out of his eyes.

Blue-eyed Tiger was just a Half-Step Trueman, and Old Man of Snowy Mountain a Great Trueman. Logically speaking, it should have taken him no effort at all to suppress Blue-eyed Tiger. In reality, it was Old Man of Snowy Mountain who fell into a disadvantage.

As Blue-eyed Tiger’s six arms flailed about, grandiose, scorching Buddhist light melted Old Man of Snowy Mountain’s chilly intent like the sun.

Not only that, Blue-eyed Tiger’s body had become exceedingly tough and powerful after it was purified by the Buddhust light. A simple punch seemed to contain the weight of a hill behind it.

In just a few exchanges, Old Man of Snowy Mountain began falling behind. That was all though. Although the sutra had boosted Blue-eyed Tiger’s strength to unprecedented heights, he was still a ways away from being able to kill the Great Trueman.

The battle stretched into a prolonged stalemate, and Blue-eyed Tiger grew more and more irritated. It roared incessantly as the sutra on his face shone brighter and brighter.

At some point, a golden Arhat with three heads and six arms took form amidst the light. Clad in battle armor, the three heads wore savage expressions as they raised their six arms into the shape of a lotus flower. Every hand was holding a Buddhist mudra as well.

The six arms fell one after another on top of Old Man of Snowy Mountain. That was six consecutive mudras, all of them containing the weight of the heavens.

Boom!

This time, Old Man of Snowy Mountain was sent flying. He spat out a mouthful of blood and turned as white as a sheet as he cut through the air.

Having successfully scored one over Old Man of Snowy Mountain, the Arhat repeated the gesture once more. It was clear he wanted to annihilate the Great Trueman.

At a critical moment, Ye Qing appeared in front of Old Man of Snowy Mountain and stared at the descending arms with an indifferent expression. He lifted his hand three inches into the air and clenched will within his palm.

When the punch emerged, its strength rocked the heavens, and its will slew the mind.

BOOM!!!

The six arms were shattered into pieces in an instant. Not only that, the fist intent continued forward and popped the Arhat like a bubble.

“Argh!”

The second the punch annihilated the image, Blue-eyed Tiger suddenly let out a bloodcurdling scream. Blood seemed to bubble out of his orifices and drenched the sutra crimson.

“Raaaaagh!” Blue-eyed Tiger roared like a tiger as a violent, evil presence washed out of him and kicked up a bloody, tidal-like storm.
