Chapter 737 You Have More Than This World
As the afterglow of the setting sun gradually faded, the last touch of gold in the sky sprinkled on this mysterious land. Against the backdrop of splendor and desolation, Li Muhan slowly stepped into this holy land of brilliant civilization.
He was wearing a tattered cloak and looked dusty, as if he had traveled thousands of miles just to find the peace in his heart.
The edge of his cloak swayed gently with his steps, and Buddhist music lingered in his ears, surrounding the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave.
His eyes, however, were incompatible with the warm Buddha's light. They were cold and deep, and were not affected by the Buddha's voice at all.
As he walked deeper, the Buddhist seals lingered in the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave, and the air was filled with the scent of sandalwood and time.
On the murals, the colorful flying figures, Bodhisattvas with different expressions, and the exquisite patterns telling Buddhist stories all appear particularly vivid under the dim light.
These murals, after thousands of years of wind and rain, still retain their stunning beauty.
Countless monks sit around in the caves, and the sounds of chanting Buddhist scriptures echo in the caves. Their voices are low and powerful, creating a solemn and sacred atmosphere.
However, in this space filled with Buddha nature, Li Muhan could feel a hint of unusual aura.
The gazes of the gods and Buddhas in the murals, which were supposed to be full of Buddha nature, now seemed to reveal a hint of evil, and were slowly moving along with Li Muhan's footsteps.
And at the corners of the Buddha statues' mouths, there is also a barely perceptible strange smile hidden.
As he walked deeper, Li Muhan felt that the sound of the Buddhist scriptures chanted by the monks became gradually louder, as if it was woven into a huge golden net, constantly pressing down on him from above.
Just as Li Muhan was walking towards the huge Buddha statue, an elderly monk blocked his way.
"Donor, do you remember who you are?"
“No need to remember.”
Facing this kind-looking monk, Li Muhan had no expression on his face. He did not take off his tattered hood, but just raised his eyes slightly and looked over the monk's shoulder at the towering Buddha.
"Since the donor has forgotten his own identity and has nowhere to stand, he should clear his mind and purify his nature, stop and take a good look at himself."
"Enlighten the mind and purify the nature..." Li Muhan murmured blankly the word he could not understand.
It seems like I've heard it somewhere before.
"You have lofty ambitions and unparalleled strength, yet you have no desire for fame or gain. You are a truly kind person. If you are willing to convert to Buddhism, I am willing to guide you."
As he spoke, the old monk turned slightly and made a gesture of invitation to Li Muhan.
Li Muhan followed the old man to the foot of the giant Buddha. He looked up at the giant Buddha but was stopped by a monk.
"You cannot look at it, benefactor. Just follow me and recite the scriptures. This will enlighten your mind and purify your heart. Only then can you abandon suffering and reach the path of great harmony."
The old monk knelt down reverently with his hands clasped together.
Li Muhan also slowly followed his movements and knelt in front of the Buddha with his hands clasped together.
"Thus have I heard. At one time the Buddha was in the Jetavana Grove in the country of Savatthi, with a great assembly of monks, numbering 1,250. At that time, the World-honored One..."
He followed the old monk and chanted scriptures together.
The surrounding scenes are also gradually changing.
The originally compassionate faces of the Buddhas in the murals illuminated by the Buddha's light began to become ferocious. Their eyes seemed to be staring at Li Muhan, and a strange smile appeared at the corners of their mouths.
Those once magnificent buildings have now become dark and dilapidated, with their colors faded and only a grayness left.
The expressions on the faces of the monks sitting cross-legged began to distort, and their bodies gradually deformed into monsters.
Their chanting changed from low Buddhist scriptures to sharp and piercing screams, echoing in the cave, making people shudder.
"It is called Anuttara Samyaksambodhi. There is no fixed Dharma. The Tathagata can speak of it. Why? The Dharma taught by the Tathagata is ungraspable and inexpressible. It is neither Dharma nor non-Dharma. Why? All sages and saints are differentiated by the Dharma of non-action."
Li Muhan was still reciting scriptures, ignoring all the changes.
The Ten Thousand Buddha Cave, which was originally shrouded in Buddha's light, began to sink into the silent night.
The light gradually disappeared, replaced by a deep darkness.
The old monk's chanting gradually faded away, but Li Muhan was still chanting in a low voice.
When he opened his eyes again, countless monsters had gathered around him.
Their bodies were hidden in the darkness, staring at Li Muhan who was sitting in front of the Buddha with greedy eyes.
The giant Buddha in front of Li Muhan has transformed into a strange figure with three heads, six arms, a green face and fangs, like an evil god.
"Everyone was delighted after hearing what the Buddha said. They believed and followed it."
When the last sentence of the scripture was recited, the old monk's hoarse and terrifying voice sounded in his ears.
"Donor... do you remember who you are now?"
Li Muhan slowly opened his eyes and saw the huge evil god statue bending over and staring at him.
Then Li Muhan's mouth corners slightly raised, and a gust of cold wind blew off his hood.
A face with two-thirds covered by black lines appeared in front of everyone.
"I am the ancestor of all you bastards."
boom--
The huge black sword pierced the evil god's chest, killing it completely in the Cave of Ten Thousand Buddhas.
The blood above his head never stopped flowing, and it seemed as if these bastards were endless and could never be completely killed.
Of course Li Muhan wouldn't find it troublesome. Since you like to come here in groups, then all of you will die here.
He was naked with his upper body covered in black lines, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, and he kept on killing with a crazy smile on his face, even if the entire Ten Thousand Buddhas Cave was filled with corpses of these monsters.
But it seems that some people are already unable to sit still.
The fallen evil god statue cracked in the middle, and a huge crack slowly appeared in front of Li Muhan.
Li Muhan raised his hand, and dozens of flying swords returned to his side after tearing the bodies of a group of monsters into pieces.
Then he panted and walked towards the crack step by step.
But just as he was about to step into the crack.
A thunderous sound came from the crack, and then a huge golden hammer smashed out from the crack.
Dozens of flying swords blocked Li Muhan's way but were instantly torn apart by the thunder.
The huge hammer hit Li Muhan's body hard, causing him to fly backwards and roll several times on the ground.
His whole body was wrapped in electric current and his head felt a little dizzy.
After finally calming myself down and looking up, I saw a figure slowly walking out of the crack.
The demon with black skin and golden runes stood on the chest of the evil god statue, holding a huge hammer, looking down at Li Muhan.
“…”
Li Muhan felt that the monster in front of him looked somewhat familiar.
He felt the power of the Heart of the World and the breath of the Tara people from it, but more of it was the power of the devil.
"The broken demon soul." Li Muhan supported himself and stood up.
"It's really pitiful that he has been transformed into this state."
The demon had a pair of horns on its head and a thick tail behind it, which smashed the statue of the evil god with a bang.
With this power, he rushed towards Li Muhan with a huge hammer in hand.
Li Muhan turned sideways and raised his hand, a light flashed in his eyes, and the long sword in his hand suddenly glowed with black light.
The next moment.
The collision between the golden hammer and the long sword almost collapsed the entire Ten Thousand Buddha Cave.
This kind of power should not belong to the devil.
Li Muhan half-knelt on the ground, shocked by the demon's enormous power.
And it was a demon with only one-third of its soul fragment left.
But it soon understood.
The Tara tribe and the Heart of the World used their power to fill the demon's empty soul, and now it is no longer a demon.
But it is a body that only knows how to kill and destroy.
The giant hammer was still pressing down, and the thunder released made it almost impossible for Li Muhan to open his eyes.
This power of thunder was extremely familiar to him, as if it had once been a part of his own strength.
But now he has to...
Transcend this power.
boom--
Another force crashed into the Cave of Ten Thousand Buddhas. The long spear transformed from the scarlet power fiercely pierced the devil's hammer. Although the scarlet power was not too strong, it distracted the monster a little.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Muhan roared and turned into a giant wolf, slashing the demon's abdomen with his claws.
The venom began to seep into the demon's body through the wound.
But even the Rift Lord's poison didn't have much effect on this demon.
He glared at Li Muhan, then looked at the vampire girl at the entrance of the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave.
The real man's 1v1 battle was interrupted, which seemed to have touched his reverse scale. He kicked Li Muhan away, and then his figure appeared in front of Xia Yue in an instant like lightning.
“…”
Before Xia Yue could raise the spear in her hand, the giant hammer in the demon's hand had already turned into a lightning blade and stabbed into the girl's chest.
The girl's scarlet power was like a shield, but it was ruthlessly torn apart by the lightning.
This feeling of being broken made the girl spit out a mouthful of blood.
Just as the lightning blade was about to pierce her body, the giant wolf suddenly appeared behind the demon, bit half of his body, and then threw him into the air.
“Ouch——!”
The black wolf's roar caused the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave to begin to collapse. The devil stabilized his body in mid-air, and the lightning sword in his hand turned into a spear. He held the spear with one hand and then threw it fiercely at the giant wolf on the ground.
The spear was filled with the power of thunder and struck Li Muhan like a meteor.
You own more than just the world
A voice suddenly sounded in Li Muhan's mind.
Although he couldn't remember who the voice belonged to, his body reacted suddenly.
The black wolf bit the air and tore a crack. The lightning spear was instantly swallowed by the crack, and then a roar sounded in the crack.
Snap——
A black claw propped up the crack, and then an extremely large black dragon head stretched out from the crack.
It was definitely not a creature from this world, but it could now tell who had attacked it. It stared at the demon above its head and let out a heart-shattering roar, then a burst of black and red breath burst out of its mouth.
Even Li Muhan could not analyze the power mixed in this breath in a short time, and the devil also realized the danger of this thing.
He dodged to the side suddenly, but half of his body was still burned by the breath.
This is not the end yet. This force directly penetrated the Ten Thousand Buddha Cave, shot into the sky, penetrated the atmosphere and shot directly into the universe.
Li Muhan found that he was unable to close the rift.
The black dragon-like monster was more powerful than it, and it could not control the rift.
At the moment when the black dragon was squeezing its body and trying to get out angrily, a white figure flew out from the crack. It punched the black dragon's head hard, and this punch actually made the black dragon shrink back a little.
Li Muhan looked closely and found that the white figure was Bai Hai.
It punched the black dragon on the forehead again. The black dragon's roar became more and more angry. It opened its mouth again, but just when it was about to spit out power.
The skeleton giant stepped on his forehead, making him dizzy and starting to retreat backwards.
[This is not our battlefield, go back]
This was not the voice of Bai Hai that Li Muhan had heard before.
This voice is more like a teenager...
Close the Rift
At the moment when the black dragon gradually retreated back into the crack, Bai Hai turned his head and stared at Li Muhan.
Half of his skeleton's armor slowly peeled off, revealing a young man.
He glanced at Li Muhan and nodded, then the bone armor covered his head again, and his whole body followed the black dragon back to the rift.
The giant wolf took this opportunity to bite the crack hard, forcing it closed.
When the crack disappeared, the black wolf turned around and looked at the girl who was kneeling on the ground and gasping for breath.
It was stunned for a moment, and then slowly rubbed the girl's cheek with its huge nose.
"...I'm fine, idiot...go do what you have to do, I won't hold you back."
Xia Yue raised her hand slightly and gently touched the giant wolf's cheek.
The giant wolf whimpered, then turned around and grinned at the demon standing on the ground, half of its body missing.
"The hunt... begins."
The next second, the giant wolf's body was burning with black flames and it pounced on the golden demon.
