Legend of the Great Sage

rapidly swelling and enlarging.
Every single ball erupted with blinding scarlet light.
The light all wove together, turning into a colossal scarlet ball of light that swallowed everything around her.

The ground shook violently, throwing waves of dirt several hundred metres into the air and reaching several hundred kilometres away.
Waves of air swept through the surroundings wildly like several dozen storms stacked together.

The Monk Kings all stopped far away in the air, struggling to regain their footing.
Their ears rumbled as they were dumbfounded by the terrifying destructive power.

The undead bore the brunt of it, such that their tight encirclement ended up suffering lethal damage instead.
Numerous Ghost Kings and Corpse Kings were blasted to pieces, even annihilating their souls.

Everything had happened in a split second, yet it also felt like a very long time ago.
A mushroom cloud rose into the sky slowly as the land was now replaced by a huge pit several dozen kilometres across.

Bang!

The Corpse Dragon King’s head that was covered in cracks fell to the ground.
The flame of its soul had already been extinguished.

Several dozen Corpse Kings and Ghost Kings died on the spot, while the remaining were all injured too.
Like startled birds, they circled around the pit, afraid to approach it.

“It’s the school of Mohism’s blasting thunders!”

The religious protector of the left furrowed his brows firmly, recognising the origins of the small, black spheres with a single glance.

Only grandmasters of the school of Mohism could produce blasting thunders.
They were extremely difficult to forge and difficult to control.
They could not be used in battle, only for destroying cities or formations.
However, every single one of them possessed the great might to annihilate entire mountains.
They pursued the most extreme destructive power possible.
They wondered how she had managed to gather so many.

However, the Dauntless monk vaguely recalled that Li Qingshan had obtained many blasting thunders when he slew the master of the Sword Collection palace.
The Sword Collection palace had originally prepared them to blast the Demon Suppression Hall.
He never expected them to be used here in the very end, almost taking them down with her.

He sighed inside.
The Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga did owe her and that Li Qingshan a debt after all.
If she were not the buddha nemesis, perhaps she would have inherited the position of abbot already.

The religious preceptor of the left said, “Blasting thunders affects everyone.
The buddha nemesis was located in the very centre of the blast, so she must be very injured.
We have to use this opportunity to kill the buddha nemesis, or she’ll definitely become a great source of trouble in the future!”

“Yes!” The Monk Kings all answered.

The Dauntless monk said, “Religious preceptor, this is a heaven-sent opportunity, so why don’t we send some people to seal up the Gate of Hungry Ghosts and rid the world of a huge problem?”

The religious preceptor of the left hesitated slightly.
The Hungry Ghost realm was indeed a great source of trouble too.

Argh!

A hysterical roar rang out from the Gate of Hungry Ghosts.
Sovereign Li was at a tipping point.
Not only had he failed to catch the fish with his plans and preparations, but he had even sustained heavy losses instead.

Death qi surged out of the Gate of Hungry Ghosts.
It ripped wider like a huge mouth roaring furiously at the sky.
The barren plains of death rapidly spread until they reached the boundary of the Mist province.
The clear skies were obscured by the dark clouds again, and the clouds had become even thicker.

From the boundless sea of trees, the Great Banyan Tree King saw this unfold.
He knew this was not just sovereign Li’s power.
It was also the culmination of the size of the Gate of Hungry Ghosts, as well as the final balance between two worlds.
Even if the ghost tower was raised higher, all that would spread was the barren plains of death.

This was the Hungry Ghost realm expanding, eagerly devouring this world and her!

The destruction of the world seemed to have become unavoidable now.

The religious preceptor of the left said, “Let’s forget about these undead for now.
We have t ofind her!”

The Great Banyan Tree King used his powers as a god to slowly send his consciousness deep underground, except he gave up, “Xiao An, I don’t want you as an enemy, because that breaks my promise and deal with Qingshan, but I am unable to side with you either, because I know what you're about to do.”

Under the washing of the death qi, the Dark Queen’s body rapidly withered away.
She was dying.

She was too busy to take something so unimportant into account.
She crossed her arms behind her chest.
That was not a technique, but a blessing—a mother’s blessing.
