Chapter 26: The Terrifying Existence
A terrifying voice came, causing Xiao Gu and Xing Wuji to be shocked and pale, especially the meaning of that sentence "You finally arrived", could it be that the unknown existence inside was deliberately waiting for Xiao Gu and others here?
Finally, Xiao Gu and Lao Wang Ba, along with Xing Wu Jin, gritted their teeth and stepped into the palace. How can one get a tiger cub without entering the tiger's lair? One must seek wealth and glory in danger.
At a glance, the great hall was very empty, with only a tall altar in the center. The altar was shining with golden light and colorful auspicious clouds, emitting countless rays of light. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a seal.
Under seal, a human being was trapped there.
Not bad, it's just a human being, playing with the whole of humanity, only this time the state is not quite right. At this moment, this strange human being has a pair of blood-red eyes staring fiercely at Xiao Gu and Xing Wuji.
However, due to the existence of the seal, he can only be like this.
However, Xiao Gu carefully discovered some differences. The seal here had cracked open a huge gap, and the seal was no longer complete. But there was another seal that existed, which prevented this strange existence from escaping.
That was a huge palm print, which turned out to be the seal of Buddhism, with mercy and compassion, accompanied by the sound of the Great Dharma Wheel, subduing this terrifying existence.
Xiao Gu carefully observed and found out that this was actually printed with a movable type printing technique.
This is! The Ming Wang Yin, one of the nine seals of Buddhism!
Xiao Gu was quite knowledgeable about Buddhism during his time in the mortal realm, and he knew a thing or two about some of its aspects. In Buddhism, there are nine seals, known as the "Hufa Yin" or "Dharma Seal", which is one of the external methods used by Buddhist practitioners to subdue demons and evil spirits.
In addition, there are eight Tianlong, five hundred Arhats, and three thousand Yaksha, all of whom are important powers in Buddhism. Of course, these are just legends and cannot be taken as true. However, the Nine Mudras of Buddhism do truly exist as a great Buddhist supernatural power.
The incredible power of this eerie, humanoid creature is beyond doubt; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to command an army of millions of white skeletons, let alone have powerful bone dragons and golden devil skulls following him.
The demon skull and the two skeletal dragons were incredibly powerful in their lifetime, one was called a divine spirit, and the other was a demon with the same name as the divine spirit. Although they had turned into dry bones, they had now produced spiritual intelligence and become high-ranking undead creatures.
If classified according to the hierarchy of strength in the human world, these guys have already reached the peak of the fifth level of Nirvana. If not for the fact that the Undead King's power far surpasses theirs, it would be impossible for these higher undead creatures to willingly follow him.
But even so, this Buddhist seal still completely suppressed it.
"Is this a demon?" Old Wang Ba's words almost made the strange creature spit blood, leading countless undead creatures, with power reaching the sky, who dares to be so disrespectful to him?
"You're really looking for death!" A pair of blood-red eyes stared coldly at Greedy Sky.
"Well then come and kill me," he said brazenly without restraint.
"Xiao Wuji, can we really kill him?" Xiao Gu asked, turning his head to ask Xing Wuji.
"It's really tough, this guy is too sinister, I think even if we join forces, it's not necessarily possible to eliminate him." Xing Wuji frowned.
"I don't believe it," let me try and see.
A deafening crash, a terrible energy fluctuation burst out instantly, the entire temple was dazzling, making it impossible to open one's eyes, endless energy flowing in turmoil.
Such a powerful and unmatched force should have destroyed the entire temple in an instant, but the temple did not collapse with a loud noise. Instead, the desert where it was located began to shake violently.
At this time, outside the temple, huge sand waves overlapped one after another, with the temple as the center, surging and rolling in all directions. Endless white bones were buried below.
The ancient temple was also shaking, but there was no sign of collapse. The faint holy light that shrouded it absorbed all the energy flows that Chen Nan's sword had stirred up and converged them onto the high altar inside the temple, strengthening the seal.
Xiao Gu was helpless, this seal was a bit abnormal, it actually absorbed external divine power for its own use.
"I say Wuji, let's join forces and use our strongest divine abilities to represent the power of the Great Dao. I think the seal should be unable to withstand it," said Xiao Gu with a frown.
"Alright. Let's give it a try," Xing Wuji nodded.
Two people simultaneously took action, two great primordial supreme divine paths appeared, striking the seal, the starry river swayed, cold stars twinkled, Xing Wu Jin's divine path was terrifyingly boundless, as if it were truly the starry river suppressing everything, vast and endless.
Xiao Gu's divine power represents the strongest force of civilization. A mysterious long river appears, with countless human shadows sinking in it, from small to large. Every battle, every experience, carries the mystical and mighty power that traverses the universe's vast expanse.
What a powerful and divine ability, Xing Wuji's heart was shocked, because in it, he actually saw his own existence, from small to large, all-encompassing. This terrifying divine ability seemed to have cut out his entire life experience from the river of time and presented it completely intact.
Xiao Gu was equally shocked, although he knew that his divine powers were strong and mysterious, but in front of him, including everything he had seen or touched, from every blade of grass to every tree, ferocious beasts, buildings, even weapons, all were transformed in this divine power.
That is to say, this strange and mysterious power transforms everything, restores everything, and extracts the supreme great power from the atmosphere of the obscure civilization.
Strictly speaking, this is no longer within the scope of the Great Way, but rather a reversal of the existence of the Great Way.
Roar!
The sealed humanoid creature let out a mighty roar towards the sky, and the two divine abilities really inflicted terrifying damage on him.
Xiao Gu and Xing Wuji made a series of moves, causing him to roar repeatedly, "What kind of divine power is this?" The humanoid creature roared in anger because he discovered that Xiao Gu's divine power actually contained his own shadow.
At the same time, Lao Wang Ba on the side was also rare to not kick someone while they're down, and he stared at Xiao Gu's divine eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
After a moment, the divine power dissipated, and the humanoid creature wilted but did not appear to have suffered any obvious harm. The two great divine powers were surprisingly unable to eradicate it.
However, this magical power seemed to ignite some mysterious great force, and a small grey-white oil lamp suddenly lit up.
Xiao Gu furrowed his brow, taking it into his hands. The humanoid creature let out a string of angry roars, seemingly wary of the oil lamp, with deep-seated fear and unease hidden in its eyes.
Rustle!
Just as Xiao Gu approached the humanoid creature within about ten meters, the humanoid creature suddenly let out a shocking scream, as if it was suffering from some unimaginable pain. The mournful sound made both Xiao Gu and Xing Wuji feel their hair stand on end.
"So you're afraid of this oil lamp," Xiao Gu chuckled, and as he spoke, the miserable cries of the human-shaped creatures grew even more mournful.
Xiao Gu stepped forward, placing the oil lamp beside the seal. A mournful and piercing cry continued to echo, blood-red eyes fixed on Xiao Gu with a deadly glare, murderous intent filling the air.
It's just a pity, and it's just a cry of despair, but it can't really hurt him.
"If we can work together with Buddha's seal, we can definitely eliminate him," Old Wang said after a long time of silence.
Buddha's seal? Xiao Gu and Xing Wuji simultaneously furrowed their brows.
"I'll give it a try," Xiao Gu suddenly walked forward, leaving an imprint on the Ming Wang Yin, Xiao Gu hoped to gain insight into the true Ming Wang Yin through this.
Of course, the reason why it is so is also because Xiao Gu feels that his current attacking methods are too lacking. The Five Elements Fist and the Emperor's Finger are indeed unparalleled martial skills, and the Divine Connection of a Thousand Years is an unimaginable divine skill, but Xiao Gu's current strength and realm are still far from enough, lacking regular means.
Nowadays, the Buddhist Nine Seals' Ming Wang Seal is absolutely a great divine combat technique. Xiao Gu hopes to have another conventional attacking method.
According to legend, the Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree for forty-nine days. On the day of his attainment, a golden light filled the sky, the earth burst forth with golden lotus flowers, and divine rays illuminated the heavens. The nine sons of the Bodhi descended from heaven and transformed into the Nine Supreme Divine Seals, ultimately becoming one of the great divine powers of Buddhism.
Even in the mortal world, the Buddha's Nine Seals are still the most supreme martial art, it's just that they have been lost for countless years.
Today there is such an opportunity, Xiao Gu naturally does not want to let it go.
