Although Shakyamuni knew that Lu Li was very strong, he never expected that Lu Li's strength would be so terrifying!
The Dharma Body Heaven and Earth Secret Technique he used was clearly much more powerful, and he had also cultivated the Supreme One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique!
Even Buddha himself couldn't do that!
Lu Li smiled faintly and said, "My luck has always been very good!"
After saying this, his two spiritual bodies rushed towards Shakyamuni and launched an attack on him.
One attacks first, the other provides support, forming a pincer movement!
"Boom! Boom!"
Without any hesitation, Shakyamuni immediately activated the swastika symbol for defense.
His body rapidly grew taller, transforming into a towering figure hundreds of feet tall, bathed in golden Buddhist light, as if a god had descended.
"boom!"
Shakyamuni raised his hand and unleashed a swastika symbol. The golden symbol, as if burning with raging flames, transformed into a golden sun that flew across the sky and crashed towards Lu Li's two spiritual bodies.
Terrifying energy fluctuations spread out like a tide, unleashing a violent hurricane and a deafening roar that shook the very void.
At this moment, a spirit wielded a long spear and slashed at the golden sun.
However, it did not damage the vast Buddha light contained within the golden sun.
The other spirit seized the opportunity and punched down, instantly breaking through the swastika shield and slamming into the surface of the golden sun, shattering it to pieces.
Shakyamuni's expression changed, sensing extreme danger, and he immediately turned and fled.
"Trying to run? Too late!"
Lu Li snorted coldly and summoned another talisman, which descended from the sky, trapping Shakyamuni and sealing him in mid-air.
Shakyamuni tried to break free, but the talisman was incredibly strong, and he couldn't budge it at all; he was bound to the talisman.
Subsequently, the spirit of Shakyamuni gradually began to dissipate, transforming once again into the Soul-Suppressing Pagoda.
"Buzz~~"
The Soul-Suppressing Tower trembled slightly, its surface shimmering with array patterns, as if it were trying to break free.
Lu Li frowned, reached out and grabbed the Soul Suppressing Pagoda, examining it closely.
This Soul-Suppressing Tower looks simple and unadorned. It is made of a mixture of special materials, making it very sturdy. Moreover, it is engraved with dense and complex runes, exuding a mysterious and obscure charm.
As Lu Li stared at the Soul-Suppressing Tower, he suddenly had a strange feeling, vaguely sensing that the tower did not seem to belong to this world.
It has neither the aura of the Eastern Realm nor the aura of the Western Realm; it seems to come from another world, or even not from this universe...
"What kind of treasure is this?" Lu Li couldn't help but ask.
He could sense that a vast and pure energy was hidden inside the Soul Suppressing Tower.
However, because the tower was too strange, he could not explore it for the time being, and could only take it away to study it first.
He then returned to the ship and saw Emperor Yang of Sui standing there, looking at Lu Li with a shocked expression.
"Are you an immortal?" Yang Guang bowed and asked sincerely.
Lu Li nodded and said, "My name is Lu Li."
Yang Guang was overjoyed upon hearing this.
Since Lu Li has admitted it, he must be an immortal.
As an emperor, he knew a little about cultivation and immortals.
"I am the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty. I beg the immortal to accept my three bows as a sign of respect!" Yang Guang said.
"Never mind!" Lu Li waved his hand.
Emperor Yang of Sui was burdened with the destiny of the human race, and the karmic consequences were too great for him to bear.
"I wish to host a banquet. Would you do me the honor of joining me, Immortal?" Yang Guang asked respectfully.
Lu Li sighed. For some reason, he sensed a familiar aura emanating from Yang Guang.
"The banquet is unnecessary. Your Majesty, please govern the country well and do not be ambitious or fond of grandiose projects, lest you destabilize the empire."
Lu Li desperately wanted to tell Emperor Yang of Sui the truth, but he couldn't do so.
Because the great destiny of the human race must be accomplished by the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi.
Jin Chanzi must represent the Tang Dynasty, which is caused by activating the Jade Disc of Creation before the Heavenly Dao was suppressed.
Although the Jade Disc of Creation is now in Lu Li's hands, Lu Li cannot change it.
Therefore, the Sui Dynasty had to perish, and the Tang Dynasty had to rise.
Otherwise, the great fortune of humanity would not have come!
All Lu Li could do was remind Emperor Yang of Sui, but how far he could go depended on himself.
"Thank you for your guidance, immortal!" Yang Guang bowed deeply, deeply grateful.
Lu Li gently shook his head and said, "You don't need to thank me. What I'm saying today is not only for you, but also for the millions of people of the human race."
After a pause, Lu Li continued, "However, I still hope that Your Majesty will not forget your original intention."
Lu Li then vanished from the spot, while Sun Wukong and Zhiyuan bowed to Emperor Yang of Sui and left as well.
Upon returning to Yunmeng Mountain, Lu Li immediately summoned the Soul Suppressing Tower.
"Er Yinzi, have you studied this thing?" Lu Li asked.
Upon seeing the Soul-Suppressing Tower, the Human Emperor Seal immediately rushed up.
"Huh? This thing... doesn't seem to be a magical artifact from this great world!" The Human Emperor Seal circled the Soul Suppressing Tower a few times and said.
"Um?"
Lu Li was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "You don't even recognize me?"
"I've never seen it before!"
Lu Li frowned slightly and said, "This tower is a Buddhist treasure, the Soul-Suppressing Tower, but I always feel that even Shakyamuni Buddha did not unleash even 20% of its power!"
"Soul-Suppressing Tower?"
The Emperor's Seal's eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "So that's it! No wonder I couldn't sense any trace of this world from this thing!"
"Oh? You know him?" Lu Li asked, puzzled.
"I've heard of it since ancient times!"
"This tower was once in the hands of Haotian and was also known as the Haotian Tower!"
"But even though it is Haotian, we don't know who built this tower," said the Human Emperor Seal.
"How so?" Lu Li asked, his eyes gleaming.
After a moment of contemplation, the Emperor's Seal said, "Legend has it that this tower comes from a mysterious world."
"A mysterious world?" Lu Li pressed.
"It is said that the Haotian Tower is the key to that mysterious world!" said the Human Emperor Seal.
"However, this is just a legend, and no one knows the truth."
"However, the Haotian Pagoda possesses numerous powers and is hailed as one of the most powerful magical treasures in the world; it's absolutely true!"
Lu Li remained silent for a moment, his feelings somewhat complicated.
What Fan Tianyin said reminded him of a place.
That was the scene he saw when he subdued the Chaos Black Flame.
That was a place where even saints shed blood; on those ruins lay countless corpses.
Lu Li remembered that among those corpses, besides a small number of humans, there were also many strange beasts and demons. These corpses contained immense blood and qi, clearly the bodies of powerful beings who retained extremely terrifying power even after death.
"What world is that?" Lu Li murmured to himself.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore." Lu Li shook his head, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts.
