Book 07 Chapter 163: If Heaven Wants You Dead, You Must Die
Gu Han alone was a match for Jiang Gautama, perhaps even slightly stronger. Adding Qin Zibai and Bodhisattva Lian Sheng to the mix only served to suppress Jiang Gautama further.
Jiang Gautama moved back continuously. Since his Gautama Divine Palm was no match for Gu Han’s, he had to resort to the techniques he used before cultivating Buddhism.
“Gautama Heavenly Demon Palm!”
A pitch-black palm surged towards Gu Han, shrouded in a thick, rolling black fog. From the fog came countless haunting cries, the sound terrifyingly sinister and desolate.
“Have you forgotten? I created the Gautama Divine Palm to counter this Gautama Heavenly Demon Palm. Break!” Gu Han shouted coldly.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
When the golden swastika appeared, it shone with a golden light like that of the blazing sun. This immediately purified all the black energy.
“Argh! Argh! Argh!”
Ghostly miserable cries came from the black fog.
“You!” Jiang Gautama appeared anxious.
Gu Han countered Jiang Gautama’s moves; in addition, Qin Zibai and Bodhisattva Lian Sheng amplified the strength of Gu Han’s attacks. With these conditions, Jiang Gautama’s defeat was only a matter of time.
A look of anger flashed across Jiang Gautama’s face as he scanned his surroundings, hoping for assistance.
Nearby, Vairocana was severely suppressing Mortal Gautama in battle. Clearly, help from Mortal Gautama was impossible.
In another area, the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon was clashing with Shangguan Hen.
The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon took out a black claw enchanted treasure and relentlessly assailed Shangguan Hen. However, Shangguan Hen cultivated the Eight Nines Profound Technique, which made his physical body like a supreme divine weapon. He was impenetrable; the attacks merely sparked, causing no harm.
Spotting an opportunity, Shangguan Hen threw a punch.
Boom! The attack blasted the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon into the air, the black claw enchanted treasure in his hand exploding.
Blargh!
Fresh blood spurted from the Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon’s mouth. Evidently, Shangguan Hen was overpowering him.
Jiang Gautama’s side was completely suppressed.
Anxiety filled Jiang Gautama’s face. His last hope lay with Heavenly Gautama.
“Right! Heavenly Gautama will surely defeat Gu Hai. He has the Heaven-defying treasure!” Hope kindled in Jiang Gautama as he directed his gaze towards the distant Heavenly Gautama.
Heavenly Gautama lunged at Gu Hai in surprise and anger, while the crimson heavenly eye in the sky revealed a look of terror.
Eighty beams of Divinity Destroying Light instantly reached the crimson heavenly eye.
“What? How can there be so many beams of Divinity Destroying Light?” Jiang Gautama exclaimed in shock.
The crimson heavenly eye was already defending itself with all its might with a red light.
Boom!
A deafening report sounded, and the space near the crimson heavenly eye exploded into billions of fragments. A black hole suddenly appeared, and a vast cloud of blood instantly billowed out.
“The Heaven-defying treasure?” Jiang Gautama’s face filled with terror.
He vaguely saw many cracks appear in the crimson heavenly eye within the black hole, bleeding copiously. Clearly, the crimson heavenly eye had suffered its most significant damage ever.
Although it was heavily wounded, the crimson heavenly eye didn’t break. However, the earlier heavenly might vanished because of the severe damage.
“Gu Hai, you heavily damaged the crimson heavenly eye, but you can’t have reached consummation yet. Let’s see what else you have besides the Divinity Destroying Light!” Heavenly Gautama threw a palm strike at Gu Hai.
Heavenly Gautama disappeared in an instant and reappeared behind Gu Hai. Since Gu Hai could not turn his head fast enough, he naturally could not defend himself with the Divinity Destroying Light.
However, Gu Hai smiled at this moment of danger.
“Did you forget? With the crimson heavenly eye heavily wounded, it can no longer suppress my Go Dao ritual array. Activate!” Gu Hai flicked his hand through the void.
Buzz!
The Go Dao laws in space activated, and a ritual array suddenly appeared. Just as Heavenly Gautama was about to land a palm strike on Gu Hai, the Go Dao ritual array flung him far away.
Boom!
Heavenly Gautama’s palm strike hit the ground, while Gu Hai remained unscathed.
“You!” Heavenly Gautama’s expression changed.
Gu Hai moved his hand while in the air, quickly deploying a Go Dao ritual array. Then, the Thirty-Five Line-Pair World Ritual Array reappeared.
Standing within the ritual array, Gu Hai was in an invincible position.
Looking up at the bleeding crimson heavenly eye, Gu Hai sneered, “The Heaven-defying treasure? It is only so-so!”
Then Gu Hai waved his hand again.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a million Disintegration Beams manifested out of nowhere, aimed at the already severely damaged crimson heavenly eye to annihilate it in one fell swoop.
“Insolent! How dare you?!” The furious Heavenly Gautama rushed forward.
However, with the Go Dao ritual array in place, the outcome was all but decided. Even if Heavenly Gautama had countless tricks up his sleeve, he couldn’t even touch Gu Hai, let alone attack him.
Previously, the crimson heavenly eye’s red light alone could have broken the ritual array, but now that it was so badly damaged, how could it break the ritual array?
Whoosh!
The one million Disintegration Beams pierced the crimson heavenly eye. The crimson heavenly eye frantically manipulated the vast blood cloud to resist.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Even though the blood clouds blocked the attacks, numerous Disintegration Beams still struck the crimson heavenly eye. More than a dozen large bleeding holes appeared in it.
Gu Hai’s gaze turned cold. “Humph! This is just the beginning. With the Thirty-Five Line-Pair World Ritual Array, I can summon as many Disintegration Beams as I want!”
He waved his hand, and another million Disintegration Beams emerged; half shot towards the crimson heavenly eye, while the other half headed for Heavenly Gautama.
The outcome of the battle was already apparent. Although Heavenly Gautama possessed powerful means, he couldn’t touch Gu Hai inside the ritual array and could only be worn down. The result was already certain.
However, as the Disintegration Beams streaked towards their targets, a shout came from the distant Jiang Gautama.
“Six Paths Immortal above, this blessed one is Jiang Gautama. I sincerely ask for the Six Paths Immortal to protect me and destroy my enemy, also the Immortal’s enemy. This Gu Hai before me was Old Mister Guan Qi’s disciple. He possesses a rebellious heart against Heaven! Will Heaven examine this?!”
“What? Jiang Gautama, how dare you?!” Gu Han’s expression changed.
The expressions of the distant Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon, Shangguan Hen, Vairocana, Mortal Gautama, and Heavenly Gautama all changed.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud report came from the sky above the Corpse Mound World. Rolling black clouds gathered, and within a moment, the sky and earth turned completely black.
The large armies stationed around the Corpse Mound World were left in confusion as the sky suddenly turned dark.
“What happened? Why did the sky turn black?”
“There are so many dark clouds!”
Buzz!
The roiling dark clouds suddenly split apart at the center, and a gigantic eye, spanning millions of miles, abruptly opened.
Plop! Plop! Plop!
As the eye opened, the soldiers in the eight hundred cities outside the Corpse Mound World all knelt down almost simultaneously. Like a fist grabbing everyone’s heart, a heavenly might made their souls tremble and prevented them from taking deep breaths.
When Heaven’s eye opened, all life knelt!
Everyone, be they dead or alive, knelt.
Eight hundred thousand years ago, the Six Paths Immortal promised to protect the three holy lands. In a life-and-death crisis for these holy lands, their masters could call upon the Six Paths Immortal and communicate with him.
When the Six Paths Immortal opened his eye in the heavens, everything below came into view.
Beside Heaven’s eye, the shattered crimson heavenly eye looked like a soybean next to a watermelon, a difference as vast as heaven and earth.
Boom!
Before Heaven’s eye, the vast fog outside the Corpse Mound World immediately scattered, exposing everything inside.
Before the vast heavenly might, all fighting stopped.
Shangguan Hen felt an overwhelming pressure that rendered him immobile and forced him to kneel. However, he had already reached consummation. After struggling hard, he managed to resist the urge.
The Corpse Worm Heavenly Demon, Vairocana, Mortal Gautama, Heavenly Gautama, Jiang Gautama, and Gu Han all exerted tremendous effort to support themselves and did not kneel.
Qin Zibai and Bodhisattva Lian Sheng could not resist at all, immediately falling to their knees in incredible fear.
This was the true heavenly might, the irresistible heavenly might.
The same powerful heavenly might also pressed on Gu Hai, trying to force him to kneel.
Boom!
The Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal in Gu Hai’s forehead space suddenly trembled, shouldering most of the overwhelming pressure. Although his legs quivered, he managed to remain erect.
Heaven’s eye? The Six Paths Immortal?
The expressions of Gu Han, Shangguan Hen, and Vairocana changed dramatically.
Gu Hai’s face sank.
“The Spirit Mountain Holy Land? Gautama?” A loud voice rang out in the sky.
It was the Six Paths Immortal’s voice. When it rang out, everyone’s eardrums hurt.
“The reincarnation of Spirit Mountain Holy Land’s good Gautama, Gu Han, salutes the Six Paths Immortal!” Gu Han said.
“The reincarnation of Spirit Mountain Holy Land’s evil Gautama, Jiang Gautama, salutes the Six Paths Immortal. Immortal, it was my evil side that assisted you, the Six Paths Veritable Lord, eight hundred thousand years ago!” Jiang Gautama shouted.
“Huh? Jiang Gautama? That’s right. This Immortal remembers you. This Immortal once promised to protect the three holy lands. However, I sensed the Spirit Mountain Holy Land’s blessings scatter earlier?” The Six Paths Immortal’s voice rang out.
“Yes! I sincerely request the Immortal for justice. Gu Hai’s group destroyed my Spirit Mountain Holy Land. When that happened, we nearly got killed. I beg the Immortal to destroy these rebellious scoundrels!” Jiang Gautama shouted.
“They want to rebel against Heaven?” The Six Paths Immortal’s voice contained a cold tone.
“Yes, Immortal! Do you remember Old Mister Guan Qi? That old fogey who severely injured you using the Go Dao at the end? That’s why you removed the Go Dao laws!” Jiang Gautama shouted.
“My memories are blurry because of my past injuries, but they have recovered a little. Old Mister Guan Qi? He obtained a wisp of the time laws with her help and traveled back in time?” The Six Paths Immortal’s words had a guessing tone. Clearly, he had not fully recovered his memories, but he did recall that Old Mister Guan Qi was the one who caused his memory loss.
“You took away the Go Daw laws, but the Go Dao laws still exist here. This Gu Hai not only wants the destruction of my Spirit Mountain Holy Land, but he even wants to use the Go Dao laws to oppose Heaven again! Immortal, please punish him. All who oppose the Immortal’s will should be executed!” Jiang Gautama shouted.
Gu Hai’s face sank as he looked at Jiang Gautama.
However, Jiang Gautama showed a cocky expression. My side was utterly suppressed earlier. Gu Hai, you are done for now! Even if you have powerful means, can you deal with the Six Paths Immortal?
Buzz!
Heaven’s eye immediately focused on Gu Hai, and a murderous intent locked on him. The ambient temperature plummeted, and snow started falling. A strong sense of impending doom enveloped Gu Hai.
The Six Paths Immortal wanted to kill Gu Hai.
If Heaven wants you dead, you must die!
However, Gu Hai suddenly laughed at the Six Paths Immortal’s murderous intent.
