The Path of the Martial Arts BOSS-Chapter 1142 - 167: Eradicating the Buddhist Law

"Another person has appeared..."

Yueyejian, seeing the scene of weapons and warfare rising all around, had a name flash through his mind, "Are you Pei Dongliu?"

Pei Dongliu, the instructor of the Forbidden Army of Daqian, once hailed as the "World's Number One" with powerful Divine Communication, was a major deterrent force for Daqian abroad.

But years ago, after a battle with Daoist Master Qingyu, Pei Dongliu suffered severe injuries and subsequently disappeared without a trace, never seen again.

Many believed that this once "World's Number One" had been broken in spirit by the battle with Daoist Master Qingyu, never to recover, and was thus ruined.

Others thought that the wounds from that battle were too severe, and had never healed to this day.

Anyway, the public speculated in many ways about the real situation of this former top combatant of Daqian. However, as Pei Dongliu remained silent for a long time, the world began to overlook these topics and forgot about him.

This is the worldly society, as well as the cruel side of the world; no one can keep the attention of the world on themselves forever, especially if that person is a failure.

As the years passed, Pei Dongliu gradually became a small note in history; if he did not appear today, people might truly have assumed he was dead.

"Everyone thought you were ruined, but unexpectedly you not only weren't ruined, you have rebuilt yourself anew." Yueyejian's pair of moon-like eyes observed the re-emerging instructor of the Forbidden Army with an expression difficult to hide.

Besides Qingyu, this man should be the first to break through to the Divinity Realm in recent years. If it wasn't for Qingyu's existence, Pei Dongliu could be considered the first Supreme warrior of this era, standing at a certain pinnacle.

However, since Qingyu had already broken through years earlier, it naturally overshadowed Pei Dongliu.

Against Yueyejian's surprise, Pei Dongliu said nothing more, only reached out a hand and said, "Please!"

In the next moment, Sword Qi pierced through space, sharp sword momentum suddenly appeared around Yueyejian, Sword Qi targeting the vital spots and vulnerabilities all over his body, a deadly move from the start.

Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Transcend Space Sword.

After the breakthrough, Pei Dongliu's "Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations" underwent a metamorphosis, making the Transcend Space Sword more unseen and traceless than before, born at the thought of the sword, everywhere, swift to the extreme, dangerous to the utmost.

The Sword Qi formed a Sword Array and shot forth, Yueyejian's long sleeves danced continuously, the moonlight transformed into soft strength surrounding him; when the Sword Qi touched the soft strength, it transformed into a gentle wind, passing aside gently like water.

However, Pei Dongliu's offensive was far beyond the Transcend Space Sword, Qi Force in his hands transformed, a Big Spear formed in his palm, the spear wind danced, displaying the wild and domineering momentum.

Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Great Wilderness Spear.

Still attacking with rigid force, the Great Wilderness Spear clashed against Taiyin Soft Strength, moonlight like water, spears like mountains, silent collision, yet fierce Qi Forces quietly developed between the two as they maneuvered, continuously clashing.

Like the undercurrents beneath the water, undetectable from the surface, yet raging fiercely below.

After a brief exchange, Pei Dongliu suddenly transformed the spear into a whip, stirring the water surface, letting the dark currents fully emerge, "Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Divine Wind Whip."

Qi Force formed into a whip shape, entwining around Yueyejian, its gentle and twisted form contained fierce strangling power, brewing murderous intent invisibly.

Pei Dongliu was once known as the "King of Battle," naturally mastering more than just Rigid Force, well versed in all types of martial arts, understanding multiple transformations of Qi Force intimately.

"Moon Shadow Clarity."

Moonlight shines on the body, shadows correspond. Yueyejian slipped from the Moon Wheel, like transforming into a shadow, retreating elegantly from the strangulation of the Divine Wind Whip Force.

Afterward, the Stone Mirror on her chest bloomed with moonlight, moonlight transformed into countless whip shadows, springing out, entangling with the Divine Wind Whip Force.

"Divine Wind Whip Force?" Pei Dongliu furrowed his brows slightly. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Though somewhat ambiguous, this transformation of Qi Force was undoubtedly the Divine Wind Whip Force, capable of replicating his Divine Wind Whip after only one encounter.

Yet he turned to smile lightly, the whip force completely transformed into Wind Force, seemingly tangible yet intangible, no longer showing gentleness, rather appearing mysterious.

"Divine Wind Shadowless Kill."

The whip force as a blade, born invisibly, like an invisible net coming from all directions, enveloping Yueyejian.

Such confrontation was exactly to Pei Dongliu's liking; though he had just recently broken through, otherwise in the previous battle at the East Sea Coast, he wouldn't have allowed the Yama to harvest the souls of Japan's army with injuries.

Though Yueyejian was proficient in Taiyin Soft Strength, not good at intense battles but adept at prolonged fighting, she had achieved the Supreme realm for many years, and Pei Dongliu remained cautious.

This battle was crucial for Daqian, requiring utmost prudence.

...

Xuanzhou.

The former Hou Qian Capital has completely disappeared due to a battle between the Human Emperor and Demon Buddha.

Now, standing at the old site of the Capital is a splendid high building.

Stacked like a pyramid, the platform layers ascend, having four layers of thirty-three zhang, and atop the platform is an eighteen-story high building.

Over one hundred and fifty zhang high, reaching the clouds, its structure marvelous, and on top, one can surely experience the lofty feeling of reaching for the stars.

At this moment, atop the building's open-air platform, Demon Buddha Bhauma sits cross-legged on a Black Lotus, hands forming various Dharma Seals, his central face gazing toward the direction of Daqian.

In front of him, Asura, the current leader of the Eight Divisions, and Heavenly Maiden chief Jingsheng Tian kneel on one knee, heads slightly bowed.

"Demon Buddha, Dragon King has sent word, Japan's three Supreme warriors have engaged with Daqian. Pei Dongliu, the instructor of Daqian's Forbidden Army, broke through to the Supreme realm and is now blocking Yueyejian." Asura reported.

"Mi Shenweng also seems to have aided Daqian for unknown reasons, helping them to delay Amaterasu. Now, Daqian Heavenly Capital is in a fierce battle, the Human Emperor has not yet acted, seemingly gravely injured, unable to fight." Asura informed.

"Demon Buddha, this is a rare opportunity, the Human Emperor is injured, and Japan and Daqian together have six Supreme warriors battling, two tigers fighting, surely one will be hurt." Jingsheng Tian analyzed.

"Blood Sea Tathagata is now in Ji Province, we can let him welcome the entry of the Desire Realm, first take Ji Province, then occupy Heavenly Capital, Daqian Country can practically fall into our hands." Jingsheng Tian laid out the plans smoothly.

"At that time, Demon Buddha can eradicate the Buddhist Law, completely sever the roots of the Buddha." Jingsheng Tian proposed.

Eradicating the Buddhist Law was the greatest revenge of Demon Buddha against Buddha, also his method to escape Buddha.

If all Buddhist disciples became followers of Demon Buddha, should the Buddha be the imprisoned Shakyamuni Tathagata or Demon Buddha Bhauma?

Then, perhaps demon turns Buddha, Buddha turns demon, a reversal of Buddha and demon.

In this situation, if a ritual is set with thousands of monks sacrificed, Tathagata wants to reverse demon to Buddha, how can he reverse?

Demon Buddha Bhauma is another face of Buddha, in a certain sense, he is Buddha too. The wisdom of Buddha, Demon Buddha possesses as well.

When Buddha devises a method to reverse demon to Buddha, Demon Buddha can devise a method to counteract.
