Ch. 1128 - Six Buddha Runes, Heaven-Suppressing Stele

When the petals fell, the void became completely silent.

In an instant, the petals expanded hundreds of times in size, blocking in front of the Myriad Flowers Fairy.

The Little Saint Demon Fist descended, the Arhat struck with his palm, and half of the Heavenly Stele passed through endless void, suppressing everything.

But all of it was blocked by the petals before them.

In the depths of the void, ripples continuously rolled.

Boom, boom, boom!

The black petals remained intact, while the strength of the three attackers increased again.

“Fellow Daoist, go on!” Zhang Bei shouted to Xu Zimo.

Xu Zimo’s eyes narrowed slightly. The Myriad Flowers Fairy’s strength puzzled him.

By all reasoning, since she knew so many secrets, she was very likely a powerful being from the ancient past.

Xu Zimo was already prepared to summon Paimon and the others.

If the opponent was a Saint Sovereign, he was no match for her yet.

But from the looks of things, the Myriad Flowers Fairy did not seem as strong as he had imagined.

Shadow Tyrant was unsheathed, the metallic ring of the blade echoed through the void.

Heaven-Slaying Blade Intent condensed into a sky-piercing scar, slashing toward the Myriad Flowers Fairy.

Several streams of power exploded together in the void.

With a loud boom, the endless void completely collapsed.

The five figures scattered, each standing midair.

Arcane Demon roared again, demonic clouds boiled around him, and boundless demonic mist spread outward.

“Saint Sovereign Demon Fist!” he roared.

At his fist, the head of a demon appeared, it seemed his arm was no longer an arm but part of a supreme demon’s body.

“In those days, Saint Sovereign Brahma comprehended both the Buddha and Demon paths. Let’s see how much you juniors have learned,” the Myriad Flowers Fairy said faintly.

“Kill!” Arcane Demon shouted, stepping through the air, demonic energy surging behind him and engulfing everything.

Myriad Buddha clasped his hands together, eyes half-closed, his brows straight and gray-white, half a meter long.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of his shadows appeared in the void.

Dozens of Myriad Buddha monks stood in all directions of the void, chanting softly, murmuring Buddhist words.

Om... Ma.... Ni... Padme... Hum!

These were the Six Buddha Runes, destroyers of all evil, each representing one of the Six Realms of Samsara.

As the monks chanted together, Buddha’s light shone over all creation, flooding the void in golden radiance.

The Saint Sovereign Demon Fist and the Six Buddha Runes attacked from left and right, sandwiching the Myriad Flowers Fairy between them.

The Myriad Flowers Fairy waved her hands, countless petals swirling between her palms.

Her palms collided with the combined forces of Buddha and Demon, sending out continuous thunderous blasts.

Zhang Bei stepped through the air, holding mountains in both hands and bearing the Heavenly Stele on his back.

The fragmented Heavenly Stele merged with the mountains.

Zhang Bei stepped upward, one foot on the stele, pressing down toward the Myriad Flowers Fairy with unstoppable might.

Another massive explosion rang out.

The endless void shattered, but fortunately this was deep within the void, nothing but void existed here.

The void could repair itself.

Otherwise, if this were in the outside world, the Flower Valley would have been completely destroyed.

As the Heavenly Stele pressed down, a sea of flowers appeared above the Myriad Flowers Fairy’s head.

The sea of flowers drifted over, burying both the stele and Zhang Bei within it.

“Zimo, help me!” Zhang Bei shouted in fear.

Xu Zimo’s eyes narrowed, and the Nomological Truth of Fire surged through his right hand.

The fire burned the eight desolations, scorched the heavens, and engulfed the sea of flowers.

But within that floral sea, a single petal floated forth and suddenly transformed into a massive ice flower.

The flower stood a hundred meters tall, somewhat like a man-eating plant, though its entire body was encased in ice.

When it opened its maw, it devoured as much of Xu Zimo’s flame power as he unleashed.

Xu Zimo snorted coldly; his Nomological Truth of Fire shifted, transforming into the Nomological Truth of Thunder.

Crackling thunderbolts rained down endlessly, obliterating the ice flower in a storm of lightning.

The sea of flowers dispersed, and Zhang Bei, covered in wounds, fell from the void, yet his life was spared.

He struggled to his feet, retreating rapidly, looking at the Myriad Flowers Fairy with fear.

Myriad Buddha and Arcane Demon were also sent flying backward.

“Do you know the full name of that stele you carry?” the Myriad Flowers Fairy asked with a soft smile.

“I don’t,” Zhang Bei shook his head.

Since obtaining the stele, it had always been a broken piece with only the word “Heaven” engraved on it.

“That stele is called the Heaven-Suppressing Stele,” the Myriad Flowers Fairy said. “It was used by the Heavenly Court to suppress the remnants of the Eastern Sea. If it were whole, it might have stood before me, ranking fifty-first among the wonders of the Great Thousand Realms.”

The Myriad Flowers Fairy smiled again. “But a broken stele, how dare it try to suppress me?”

The others’ expressions turned grim. Arcane Demon said, “We can’t go on like this. Do any of you have a better idea?”

“In a battle like this, what plan is there? We can only fight it out,” said Myriad Buddha.

“Brother Xu, what do you think?” Zhang Bei turned toward Xu Zimo, testing his reaction.

“Didn’t you notice?” Xu Zimo asked calmly.

“Notice what?” the other three were puzzled.

“She’s holding back,” Xu Zimo said. “Much of her strength hasn’t been used. Whether she’s concealing her power or can’t use it, we’ll find out soon enough.”

When the sea of flowers had wrapped around Zhang Bei earlier, Xu Zimo had only tested her lightly, yet had broken through her technique easily.

That Myriad Flowers Fairy’s power as an Immortal Monarch was not as terrifying as expected.

He stepped forward, facing her directly.

The aura of his blade grew heavier and heavier.

As he advanced, the sonic booms roared past his ears.

One slash fell, cleaving half the void in two.

The Myriad Flowers Fairy raised her right hand, and countless flower seas surged again.

Within them, several petals quickly grew into towering mystical flowers, enclosing Xu Zimo and the others within.

Each petal bore different attributes, strong in both defense and attack.

Watching them trapped within, the Myriad Flowers Fairy looked at Xu Zimo and said, “You now are far different from who you once were.”

“Is that so?” Xu Zimo replied coolly.

He extended his right hand, and the Codex of Life and Death flew out from the void.

Standing firm, he slowly opened it, and the power of life and death spread around him.

From the book emerged countless Chains of Life and Death.

They shot outward, binding all the mystical flowers, the two forces locked in a stalemate.

The flowers bloomed, radiating fire and ice, time and space…

The Myriad Flowers Fairy, like the master of all flowers, ruled over the birth and death of every plant in existence.

The Chains of Life and Death spread in all directions, temporarily restraining the sea of flowers.

Arcane Demon and Myriad Buddha exchanged glances.

Their powers of Buddha and Demon fused together, mighty Buddhist light and demonic energy surged from their bodies.
