Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Book 5: Chapter 98: Unkillable

A loud sound rang out at the Reincarnation Palace. Countless frost crows soared into the sky, and intense flames followed. Miserable squawks rang out, instantly provoking horrified expressions from the surrounding souls.

Many of the souls either rushed towards the Reincarnation Palace or sought high ground to look in the Reincarnation Palace’s direction.

The intense flames forced the magistrates and soldiers rushing towards the Reincarnation Palace to a halt, with horrified expressions.

“It’s those two demons?”

“They attacked again?”

“No! It’s the great king! Ah! There’s also the bodhisattva with the great king!”

“No! Brother Zhang burned to death! No!”

Horror spread in the surroundings. No soul dared to approach when they saw Bodhisattva Zi Zhu burning all the souls around her and attacking the frost crows, pushing Bing Ji into despair.

Even in despair, Bing Ji did not run. She protected Gu Hai. However, Gu Hai pulled her behind himself and grabbed the charging black eagle.

“Hah! A beast is a beast. Such poor memory!” Gu Hai raised his head with a sullen expression. Then, his gaze shifted from the black eagle to Bodhisattva Zi Zhu.

Bang!

The black eagle exploded in Gu Hai’s hand, turning into boundless flames scattering in all directions.

“Who are you calling a beast?” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu glared.

However, the Reincarnation King turned ashen with fear. While Bing Ji was already horrifying enough, Gu Hai was even worse.

“Bodhisattva, what should we do?” the Reincarnation King asked anxiously.

“Humph! No one can escape from my Red Lotus Karmic Flame Ritual Array. Furthermore, he is just a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s face sank.

She waved her hand.

Surging black flames erupted from the Red Lotus Lampwick again. This time, the flames encased the entire plaza as black eagles came out of the black flames and rushed at Gu Hai.

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s eyelids had twitched wildly when Gu Hai crushed a black eagle with one hand. However, she was extremely confident in the Red Lotus Lampwick, so she disregarded the premonition, thinking it a coincidence.

Screech! Screech!

Tens of thousands of black eagles charged at Gu Hai, Bing Ji, and Chen Xianer. The flames seemed to burn space, twisting it and wanting to destroy the three. The black eagles screeched ferociously. The distant soul soldiers revealed startled and fearful expressions.

“Just a weak, little fire bird. To think that you dare to be unruly before us?” Gu Hai’s eyes turned cold as he waved his hand.

Boom!

Suddenly, a bright, red fire erupted around the three, sweeping towards the black eagles like a wave.

Squawk!

The black eagles that rushed over cried out miserably. Before they could reach Gu Hai, they dissipated in a flash.

The red flames spread into the surroundings, rushing at the black flames. Wherever the red flames arrived, they pushed aside the black flames.

Bang!

With a loud report, the gigantic black lotus flower suddenly exploded. The Red Lotus Karmic Flame Ritual Array instantly collapsed.

“What? How can this be? What flame is this?” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s expression changed.

Gu Hai did not relent. He stepped forward and charged at Bodhisattva Zi Zhu. He extended his hand, and a huge fireball shot at her.

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu showed anxiety on her face as she wielded the Red Lotus Lampwick to meet the attack.

The Red Lotus Lampwick shot surging black flames at Gu Hai’s fireball. However, the black flames were not even worth a strike before the fireball, which even damaged the Red Lotus Lampwick.

“The Samādhi True Flame?” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s expression changed.

Boom!

The Red Lotus Lampwick suddenly exploded.

“Argh!”

“Argh!”

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu and the Reincarnation King were blasted away. Horror appeared on their faces.

The Reincarnation King was in a relatively good state, only knocked into the air by the shock waves. However, Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s body now appeared dim, her spiritual souls evidently injured.

“The Samādhi True Flame? How can this be? How could you have the Supreme Ascendant Dao’s Samādhi True Flame?” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu roared while glaring.

“Bodhisattva Zi Zhu? We already spared you once back then, yet you remain reckless? It looks like we were wrong. We have to eradicate the roots to eliminate the problem with people like you,” Gu Hai said coldly.

As Gu Hai spoke, he stalked towards Bodhisattva Zi Zhu.

As Gu Hai approached Bodhisattva Zi Zhu, she waved her hand.

“Your Majesty, be careful!” Bing Ji cried out in alarm.

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu seemed to be sending out an enchanted treasure.

How could Gu Hai not keep his guard up? Samādhi True Flame immediately spewed out in front of him.

Boom!

Before Gu Hai could clearly see that treasure, the Samādhi True Flame had already burned it up.

“What?” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s expression changed.

A vast amount of Samādhi True Flame surrounded Gu Hai as he slowly approached Bodhisattva Zi Zhu.

“No, no, no! This should not have gone this way!” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu glared.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Many enchanted treasures flew out, rushing at Gu Hai. Evidently, Bodhisattva Zi Zhu had made substantial preparations, bringing many enchanted treasures with her to the Human Path Secret Realm.

However, so what if she had many treasures? The Samādhi True Flame could deal with everything, instantly burning up the treasures that flew towards Gu Hai.

The Reincarnation King appeared stupefied.

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu showed a horrified expression.

Gu Hai’s eyes shone with murderous intent as he walked over slowly. He no longer wished to spare Bodhisattva Zi Zhu.

Soon, it looked like Gu Hai would arrive before her. Bodhisattva Zi Zhu had run out of options, lacking offensive means.

“Amitābha! Mister Gu!” Suddenly, a voice came from Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s chest.

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu now took out a golden lotus flower. The voice came from it.

“Oh? Future Buddha?” Gu Hai said.

“Mister Gu, Bodhisattva Zi Zhu is already severely injured. On account of this humble monk, would you let Bodhisattva Zi Zhu off? I will restrain her in the future and prevent her from targeting Mister Gu. How about this humble monk owe Mister Gu a favor for this?” said the voice from the golden lotus flower.

“Salutations, Lord Buddha!” The Reincarnation King respectfully saluted the golden lotus flower.

Gu Hai glanced at Bodhisattva Zi Zhu. Then, he shook his head. “There’s no need. Future Buddha, I do not need this favor. Since Bodhisattva Zi Zhu wants to kill me, I will not spare her.”

“Mister Gu, aren’t you interested in why Bodhisattva Zi Zhu entered the Human Path Secret Realm?” The Future Buddha sounded somewhat anxious.

“Not interested!” Gu Hai stepped forward coldly; the Samādhi True Flame inched forward.

“You cannot kill her! Mister Gu, Bodhisattva Zi Zhu is doing this for all life in the world. You cannot kill her. I will restrain her after this; how’s that?” the Future Buddha said anxiously.

“Restrain? If we died today, what would be the point of restraining her? Furthermore, given her personality, even if I don’t die today, she will surely take revenge in the future,” Gu Hai retorted coldly.

“No. Gu Hai, aren’t you afraid of becoming enemies with my Spirit Mountain Holy Land? Gu Hai—” the Future Buddha said anxiously.

Bang!

The Samādhi True Flame burned the golden lotus flower away, and the Future Buddha’s voice stopped.

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu’s expression changed. Seeing Gu Hai’s ferocious expression, she finally felt the clutches of death approaching.

“Reincarnation King, hurry! Hurry! Quickly make a move!” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu cried out anxiously.

“Me?” The Reincarnation King’s expression changed.

Gu Hai glanced coldly at the Reincarnation King. The Reincarnation King shivered. How could he dare to attack?

Gu Hai reached Bodhisattva Zi Zhu. Then, he waved. The Samādhi True Flame suddenly took the form of a fire dragon and rushed at her.

“Reincarnation King, you can control mortal souls. Use the Mortal Soul Register to hold Chen Xianer hostage!” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu shouted in alarm.

“How dare you?!” Gu Hai glared.

The Reincarnation King showed fear on his face.

“Hurry! Otherwise, Reincarnation King, you can also forget about living. The Lord Buddha will not let you off,” Bodhisattva Zi Zhu threatened.

The Reincarnation King immediately shivered and activated the Mortal Soul Register.

“Ah!” Chen Xianer suddenly cried out miserably.

“Xianer!” Gu Hai’s expression changed.

However, Gu Hai did not stop. The fire dragon charged at Bodhisattva Zi Zhu.

“Argh!”

Find the original at h*sted .

Bodhisattva Zi Zhu cried out miserably, engulfed by the fire dragon.

“Bodhisattva!” The Reincarnation King’s expression changed.

The fire dragon flew away, leaving Bodhisattva Zi Zhu as a small blue ball.

Gu Hai ignored Bodhisattva Zi Zhu. Instead, he turned to look at Chen Xianer. At this moment, Chen Xianer had become a small blue ball as well.

“Reincarnation King!” Gu Hai glared at the Reincarnation King.

“Sage! Sage, spare me! Bodhisattva Zi Zhu forced me to! She forced me to!” The Reincarnation King plopped down to his knees.

“Where’s Xianer?! What happened to my Xianer?!” Gu Hai kicked the Reincarnation King with a ferocious expression.

“Mister Gu, she is not dead. I only planned to capture her, not destroy her. I only extracted her energy, just her energy. She is still alive! Alive!” the Reincarnation King said in horror.

“Still alive? Bring her back!” Gu Hai said coldly.

“I…” The Reincarnation King stopped there.

“Hurry!” Gu Hai ordered coldly.

“Because I used the Mortal Soul Register to move Chen Xianer here, there is a record of her. The Mortal Soul Register can extract her energy, but it cannot replace it. I…I cannot do anything about it,” the Reincarnation King said anxiously.

“Huh?” Gu Hai stared at the Reincarnation King.

“It’s true! Sage, her mortal soul is not destroyed. She only lost her energy.”

“Not destroyed? Hah! Then what about Bodhisattva Zi Zhu? She turned into a small blue ball too.”

“She is not dead, either. When you sages enter the Human Path Secret Realm, there is divine light encasing you. You are unkillable. Look at Bodhisattva Zi Zhu. She is left with only this primitive body! I only extracted Chen Xianer’s energy, not killed her. Like Bodhisattva Zi Zhu, she only returned to a primitive body,” the Reincarnation King said anxiously.

“How do we restore her?” Gu Hai asked coldly.

“I do not know how to replenish her energy. Previously, when I used the Mortal Soul Register to punish disobedient souls, they could still hear what was happening around them although they lost their energy. They recovered after ten years and returned. It’s true! It’s true! Sage, spare me!” the Reincarnation King said anxiously.

“Sage, spare me! I was forced to do it! It was the three holy lands’ people who killed the other Reincarnation Kings, supporting me to be the sole Reincarnation King. If I do not obey them, they will kill me and raise someone else, so…so…,” the Reincarnation King said anxiously.

“Humph!” Gu Hai gave a cold snort. Then, he raised his hand and spewed out the Samādhi True Flame.

“Don’t! Argh!”

With a shriek of agony, the Reincarnation King instantly burned into fragments in the fire and scattered, flying to the sky.
