Book 6: Chapter 086: Six Paths Veritable Lord Attacks
On the tenth day after traveling eight hundred thousand years back, Peacock Deity Island:
Under Kong Xuan’s command, all the peacocks left the Peacock Sea, going far away from this place.
A spatial tear heading to the Hell Path Secret Realm appeared in the Peacock Deity Hall.
Gu Hai stood in front of the spatial tear and looked at the Metal Buddha outside the hall.
“Metal Buddha, are you not going to seek refuge?” Gu Hai asked with a frown.
The Metal Buddha shook his head after taking a deep breath. “I need to clarify some things.”
“So what if you clarify them? The Six Paths Veritable Lord will silence you. If you just wait here…” Gu Hai frowned.
“This is just a husk. Mister Gu, you do not need to mind me. I have cultivated a Golden Benevolent Body over ten lives; I am different from regular cultivators. Although I can be overly pedantic sometimes, I will investigate thoroughly because of that. I do not believe what you said, but my beliefs have been shaken. I need to clarify this. Otherwise, what is the point of this buddha body? Mister Gu, are you sure the Six Paths Veritable Lord will be coming soon?” The Metal Buddha frowned.
“I can already sense the position of two of them. One is in the southwest, and the other is in the northwest. The northwest Six Paths Veritable Lord is going farther away from me. It looks like he is going to kill others. The southwest Six Paths Veritable Lord is approaching me. That one is coming for me.” Gu Hai nodded.
“Mister Gu, go about your business. There is no need to care about me,” the Metal Buddha said, pressing his palms together with a determined expression.
“Alright. Take care!” Gu Hai nodded.
Whoosh!
Gu Hai entered the spatial tear in the Peacock Deity Hall.
Creak!
The doors closed.
The Metal Buddha turned his back to the doors and held his palms together, showing a benevolent and compassionate expression.
He waited for about two hours.
Boom!
A strong gust of wind suddenly rushed at Peacock Deity Island.
Caw! “Where are the peacocks?” A crow’s cry came from the sky.
The Metal Buddha raised his head and looked at the sky. A ten-kilometer-long golden crow suddenly took human form. It was the Supreme Singularity who left yesterday.
The Supreme Singularity had twenty experts with him. There were monks, Daoists, emperors, and animal spirit kings. They all showed cold expressions as they looked at the Metal Buddha in front of the Peacock Deity Hall.
Three figures stood in the middle of the experts. The leader was the Six Paths Veritable Lord. He wore Daoist robes and showed a compassionate and benevolent expression. The other two wore black robes that concealed their faces.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord stood in the air, apparently the focus of this group.
“Amit?bha!” the Metal Buddha greeted.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord was here, so the Supreme Singularity did not overstep his bounds. He only looked coldly at the Metal Buddha.
“Metal Buddha, how have you been? Was the medicine from before effective?” the Six Paths Veritable Lord laughed.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s laughter sounded like the spring wind, bringing warmth.
The Metal Buddha showed a faintly complicated expression.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord really came. Doesn’t this further prove Gu Hai’s words? Is the Six Paths Veritable Lord really going to kill Heaven?
“Many thanks for Six Paths Veritable Lord’s medicine. My injuries have healed already!” the Metal Buddha said with a forced smile.
“It’s good that they have healed. I heard that you came to the Peacock Sea because of my bounty. What is the situation with Gu Hai now?” the Six Paths Veritable Lord asked, smiling.
“They are in the hall behind me,” the Metal Buddha said gravely.
“Haha! Metal Buddha, well done!” a monk among the experts laughed.
“Veritable Lord, there’s no need for you to deal with these demons personally. We will deal with them for you,” the experts volunteered.
However, the Metal Buddha stared at the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“Six Paths Veritable Lord, this humble monk has something I would like to ask,” the Metal Buddha said seriously.
“Oh?” The Six Paths Veritable Lord frowned slightly. Understanding flashed in his eyes. This Metal Buddha probably knows the truth already.
“Have you ever thought of rebelling against Heaven? Have you?” the Metal Buddha suddenly shouted.
When the Metal Buddha shouted, his pupils suddenly turned golden. As he stared at the other party, it seemed like these golden eyes could see into the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s heart.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s expression did not change, not betraying anything. However, the expressions of the experts in the surroundings changed suddenly.
“Metal Buddha! How dare you?! How dare you make such accusations of the veritable lord?”
“Metal Buddha, you fell for the demon’s tricks!”
“Have you already fallen for the evil demon’s temptations?”
The experts shouted furiously.
“Metal Buddha, it looks like your mind is insufficiently firm. You let the evil demons confuse you!” A trace of pity flashed in the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s eyes.
“Metal Buddha, you are making the world your enemy by protecting the demons. The evil demons are causing chaos in the world. Today, this humble monk will subdue you, an evil demon, on behalf of all life.” The monk who greeted the Metal Buddha earlier glared, then stepped forward, took out a staff, and swung it at the Metal Buddha.
The Metal Buddha stared at the Six Paths Veritable Lord as though still trying to determine the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s thoughts.
Buzz!
The instant the staff swung over, the Metal Buddha’s entire body turned golden and glistening.
Boom!
A loud report rang out as the staff bounced back.
The Metal Buddha stood up, showing an unsightly expression. “Six Paths Veritable Lord, I have seen it. Your heart wavered. Fortunately, this humble monk did not make a grave mistake.”
As the Metal Buddha spoke, his figure enlarged, turning into a three-odd-kilometer giant. He looked like an enraged temple guardian.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord narrowed his eyes. “Metal Buddha, the evil demon has clouded your eyes!”
“Humph! You are the true evil demon! This humble monk will subdue demons on behalf of Heaven today!” The Metal Buddha glared and stepped forward to grab the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
Despite the large body, he moved even faster than before, instantly closing the distance.
“Metal Buddha? You burned the cultivation you obtained by being philanthropic for ten lives just to protect them?” The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s face sank.
“Veritable Lord, there’s no need to engage in nonsense with him. I’ll deal with him!” the Supreme Singularity roared furiously.
As the Supreme Singularity spoke, he suddenly transformed into a ten-kilometer-long golden crow. It flapped its wings and flew towards the Metal Buddha.
“Supreme Singularity, be careful. That is the golden body he cultivated over ten lives, the Golden Indestructible Body!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord called out.
A golden crow’s claw grabbed the Metal Buddha’s head.
“Lackey!” the Metal Buddha shouted furiously as he threw a palm strike.
Boom!
The two experts parted with a loud report. The Metal Buddha’s head remained, albeit with a scratch mark. However, the Metal Buddha’s palm landed on the Supreme Singularity’s wing and broke it.
“You layered your cultivation over ten lives together? How excellent of you, Metal Buddha! However, only death awaits you for daring to protect demons!” the Supreme Singularity roared ferociously.
As the Supreme Singularity roared, it spat a large dark-yellow bell.
Dong!
The Primal Chaos Bell chimed loudly, forming vast, yellow sound waves rushing at the Metal Buddha.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The Metal Buddha immediately held his head in pain.
“The Primal Chaos Bell. Watch as I scatter your three spiritual souls and seven physical souls!” The Supreme Singularity rang the Primal Chaos Bell again.
Dong!
“Argh!” the Metal Buddha cried out in pain.
Despite knowing that he had no way of resisting the Primal Chaos Bell, the Metal Buddha leaped up and tried to grab the Six Paths Veritable Lord, looking like he wanted to kill the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“Veritable Lord, be careful!” everyone cried out.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord’s face sank. “Metal Buddha, the evil demon has brainwashed you. Reincarnate and do better in your next life!”
As the Six Paths Veritable Lord spoke, he extended his right index finger and gently tapped the air.
Whoosh!
A crimson light shot out of the Six Paths Veritable Lord’s right index finger at the Metal Buddha’s forehead.
“What?”
Boom!
A loud sound rang out, and the Metal Buddha’s figure froze as he gazed at the Six Paths Veritable Lord in horror.
A bloody hole appeared in the Metal Buddha’s forehead. He emanated a bright golden aura as if his cultivation was scattering.
Whoosh!
The Metal Buddha shrank back to his original size. He now sat on the ground cross-legged, no longer breathing. He had died.
One finger?
The experts felt a chill in their hearts. However, they felt more awe and reverence than fear.
“Veritable Lord, the Metal Buddha was responsible for his own end. We had better take down the evil demon quickly, right?” the Supreme Singularity said after taking human form.
The Six Paths Veritable Lord nodded.
Then, he walked to the Peacock Deity Hall’s entrance, ignoring the Metal Buddha’s corpse.
Creak!
The Peacock Deity Hall’s doors opened. Everyone immediately saw the spatial tear.
“This is?” everyone exclaimed.
“The hell path of reincarnation? Let’s go!” the Six Paths Veritable Lord said.
“Yes!” Everyone stepped into the spatial tear, following the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
Buzz!
After everyone stepped into the spatial tear, the spatial tear suddenly disappeared.
Peacock Deity Island turned quiet once more, leaving only the Metal Buddha’s corpse sitting there alone.
Buzz!
Just then, the golden aura that scattered from the Metal Buddha’s body returned, slowly coalescing into a transparent figure that looked like the Metal Buddha. However, no one could see the figure due to its transparency.
The transparent Metal Buddha looked at his corpse with a bitter expression. “The Soul Destroying Finger? He tried to destroy my three spiritual souls and seven physical souls with his finger strike? I would have been annihilated if not for the Golden Indestructible Body I cultivated over ten lives and my Great Benevolent Beneficence Soul Body. The Six Paths Veritable Lord is powerful. Mister Gu, you have to be careful!”
As the Metal Buddha’s Great Benevolent Beneficence Soul Body looked at his corpse, he sighed softly and stepped forward. He soared into the sky and disappeared, no longer bothering with his physical body.
——
The eighteenth layer of hell, the hell path of reincarnation:
Gu Hai, Kong Xuan, and the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access stood on a planet and looked at a screen before them. This screen showed the Metal Buddha’s fight with the Six Paths Veritable Lord.
“One finger strike?” Kong Xuan’s eyelids twitched wildly.
“The Six Paths Veritable Lord is indeed powerful!” the Severed Sect’s Heavenly Access said seriously.
As Sect Master Heavenly Access spoke, he waved his hand, and the screen vanished.
“Gu Hai, the coming battle will be dangerous!” Sect Master Heavenly Access said with a bitter smile.
“Indeed. The Metal Buddha has powerful means. Even with such strength, he could not last one finger strike against the Six Paths Veritable Lord. The Six Paths Veritable Lord even brought a group of helpers. Haha! It is indeed dangerous. If you do not want to participate, you may leave now,” Gu Hai said.
“Your Reverence, what are you saying? Back when Kong Xuan was in danger, Your Reverence did not shrink back. How can Kong Xuan run now?” Kong Xuan immediately said in a resolute tone, his face sinking.
“Gu Hai, don’t say such things. Now that we have traveled eight hundred thousand years back, no one can escape. Furthermore, this sect master has never fled!” Determination flashed in Sect Master Heavenly Access’s eyes.
Gu Hai nodded. Then, his expression suddenly turned cold as he looked at the entrance to the eighteenth layer of hell.
Buzz!
The Six Paths Veritable Lord led twenty-three experts into the eighteenth layer of hell.
