Supreme Emperor of Swords-Novel

Chapter 981 Some People Call Me Li Da

“This young man is connected to me by fate. Let him pass,” said Lord Buddha emotionlessly.

The black demonic lotus swayed, released a strange aura, and said, “He has integrated the aura of the gold Immortal Tao, so he is a hidden danger. He can’t step on the Mount Immortal Tao.”

“The Immortal Tao belongs to those who are fated to obtain it. Since the golden Immortal Qi is willing to accept him, he has the fate.” Lord Buddha shook his head and said, “The Immortal Tao is not that man’s Tao, so how can there be any hidden danger?”

“Hahaha, Liang Er, I don’t want to argue with you.” The black demonic lotus laughed sinisterly and said, “If he can walk out of my lotus pond, I’ll just let him leave. If he can’t, he will be the fertilizer for my lotuses.”

Before its voice died away, the entire lotus pond suddenly began to boil.

The clear water suddenly became as black as thick ink, and the fragrance of the lotuses in the surrounding air suddenly became as stinky as humus. The lotus leaves, which were like green emerald plates, gradually turned black starting from the most obvious veins. The round edges were like sawteeth, with a metal-like texture and ferocity.

The lotuses in the pond were originally clean and pure; however, they suddenly became as terrifying as carnivorous flowers. The quiet and peaceful atmosphere suddenly became as gruesome as a ghostly place.

Wisps of black light mist filled the air, enveloping the entire lotus pond.

Ding Hao could feel a horrible aura pressing down on him from all directions as if death were pending. He felt that he would be squeezed dry in an instant. It seemed that a man would die as soon as he smelled the stinky air.

He was greatly frightened and immediately ran his Qi to resist.

“Amitabha!” Lord Buddha chanted.

Golden light burst out from his body. The three thousand Buddha shadows behind him seemed to be alive. With a stir of his mind, the three thousand Buddha shadows integrated into one Buddha shadow. With another stir of his mind, the one Buddha shadow turned into three thousand Buddha shadows. The change repeated again and again. After a split second, a Buddha’s shadow tens of thousands of feet tall appeared behind him, enveloping Golden Cicada, Lei Tingchan, and Ding Hao.

“Hahaha, that is the real body of the Future Buddha. You are capable indeed. Let me see how long you can resist my Destructive Demonic Lotus Light...” The black demonic lotus laughed loudly as its petals shook. Then the entire lotus pond boiled. The black lotuses grew wildly, and their petals turned into black corrosive vines, twining around the golden Buddha figure beside Lord Buddha.

Ding Hao and the other two were unable to intervene in the battle between such existences with their current strengths.

“Leave here. Go to the peak of the Mount Immortal Tao,” said Lord Buddha to the three.

“Master, do Lei Tingchan and I need to leave too?” asked Golden Cicada in surprise.

Lei Tingchan also looked surprised.

“The Immortal Tao is equal to the Buddhist Tao. Both of you have Buddhist fate, which means you have the immortal fate. Go and try your luck.” Lord Buddha said with a compassionate look, “What you will get depends on your fates. I need to resolve the evil fate with this demonic lotus. You can go ahead.”

Before his voice died away, a silver light burst out from the while Tier-Nine Lotus Throne he was sitting on, and a space passage was opened. Ding Hao and the other two were directly teleported out of the lotus pond and disappeared in an instant. Then, the lotus throne which Lord Buddha was sitting on withered with the lotuses it carried and fell into the black pond.

“You didn’t hesitate to destroy your own foundation of Buddhist Tao for the sake of three juniors?” The black demonic lotus shrieked with surprise, and then it sneered. “Looks like you’re doomed to die today.”

“Amitabha.” Lord Buddha closed his eyes and lowered his eyebrows. He raised one finger towards the sky while pointing another finger towards the earth as he floated above the black lotus pond. Splendid Buddha Light emitted from his body to resist the corrosive black fog.

“Master...” Golden Cicada cried out anxiously.

He knew what the Tier-Nine Lotus Throne meant to Lord Buddha. In the Western Desert, Lord Buddha had comprehended the Buddhist Tao. He went across the Western Desert by nine steps. A lotus appeared as he took each step. He had made a great achievement in Buddhist Tao and magical powers. That was how he had obtained the white lotus throne. However, in order to send the three of them out of the black lotus pond, Lord Buddha did not hesitate to destroy it...

“Is this black demonic lotus really so powerful?

“Even Lord Buddha could only use such a method?”

“Go.” The word uttered gently by Lord Buddha reverberated in Golden Cicada’s and Lei Tingchan’s ears like the chanting of ten thousand Buddhas.

Ding Hao and the other two were walking rapidly on the steep mountain road.

“So Lord Buddha found you as soon as you arrived in the Land of Divine Grace?” asked Ding Hao in surprise.

Golden Cicada nodded and said, “Buddhist magic powers are different from ordinary martial arts. I’ve been learning cultivation from my master since I was a child. One of the techniques is called Heart Connection. As long as we are on the same continent, my master can sense me anywhere.”

“You were lucky. You didn’t have to be chased by the God’s Palace like a dog.” Ding Hao sighed.

It was true that people had different fates. Numerous favored geniuses who had come to the Land of Divine Grace from the Land of Infinity had been killed in the Land of Divine Grace as demon stars. People like Lei Tingchan had also suffered greatly. However, Golden Cicada, who was hunted down like a dog in the Land of Infinity, found a “family” to rely on as soon as he arrived in the Land of Divine Grace with the stone key he had snatched. With Lord Buddha’s protection, this guy must have an easy time.

Golden Cicada chuckled.

“My master said before that this mountain road was called the Stairway to Heaven. The God’s Palace has set up several barriers. My master can only deal with one of them. I’m afraid that there will be more barriers up there. What should we do then?” He looked up at the top of Mount Immortal Tao, where clouds and mists were swirling.

Lei Tingchan calmly said, “Our master naturally has his reasons for asking us to go. We’ll know when we get there.”

Ding Hao laughed loudly and said, “It seems that Tingchan has much more Buddhist nature than you.”

Golden Cicada’s face darkened.

Lei Tingchan smiled faintly.

Ding Hao suddenly stopped walking.

The field of vision ahead suddenly widened, and there was a neat green meadow. A half-meter-wide waterfall flowed down from the high cliff, and the water crashed into a green pond. Water vapor splashed. Ding Hao and the two could feel the moisture.

A look of vigilance appeared on the faces of the three, as they saw a child about 13 or 14 years old, who was setting by a bonfire near the pond with a smile and roasting a big white fish that was pierced through by a long branch and smeared with sauce. The two sides of the fish were roasted by the child alternately, making crackling sounds.

The child was dressed in a loose robe, and his black hair was combed into two buns with a small braid. However, the braid was a little loose, making him look terribly untidy. And he was barefooted. It seemed that he was a little tramp.

In addition, there was no Qi fluctuation on his body, which was the strangest thing. The source of this content is ɴovelFɪre.net

Even countless Saint-level or God Realm masters might not be able to get to Mount Immortal Tao alive. However, such a little tramp-like child was there. This was completely illogical. When something happened in an unusual manner, bad things were likely to happen.

Ding Hao and the other two looked at each other, indicating to be careful. Then, they slowly walked over.

“Haha, fellows, you are really slow. You missed a good show.” The child suddenly turned around. He had a fleshy nose on his little round face. When he grinned, a large gap between his teeth was revealed, which was a little funny.

However, Ding Hao and the other two were shocked by the tone of the child.

“May I...” Ding Hao was still on the alert.

“Cut the crap. Come and eat the fish first.” The child waved his hand casually and skillfully sprinkled some flavors on the big white fish. Then, he turned the fish over so that it could be evenly heated. He said with a smile, “Since you are here, I’ll share it with you. You are really lucky.”

Ding Hao narrowed his eyes suddenly as he noticed that there were golden dragon scales on the body of the big white fish that was pierced through by the branch. Obviously, the fish had been roasted on the fire for a long time after being cut open with the entrails removed, but it was still alive and kept struggling as if it tried to jump off the bonfire.

Especially, its eyes were filled with anger, fear, and unwillingness, which were clearly the emotions of intelligent beings.

“Looks like you still haven’t given up. Humph, accept your fate and become my meal.” The child patted the big white fish with his hand and suddenly spat some spittle into the bonfire. With a boom, the flame suddenly turned pale purple, curled up, and enveloped the white fish.

The next moment, a strange appetizing smell filled the air.

The big white fish was thoroughly cooked in an instant.

Ding Hao and the other two were shocked as they sensed the power that only God Realm Masters at the supreme master level could possess from the flame burst just now.

“Haha, you can eat it now. Come on, help yourself. I treat you to the fish.” The child waved his hand with a smile.

“Amitabha, I’m a vegetarian.” Golden Cicada quickly declined as he felt what just happened was a little weird.

Lei Tingchan frowned and said nothing.

After hesitating for a moment, Ding Hao took a piece of the roasted fish handed over by the child and smelled it slightly. An indescribable fragrance suddenly came into his nose. With just one sniff, the Qi power in his body was suddenly activated, as if he had taken some magic elixirs.

“Good stuff.”

Ding Hao’s eyes lit up.

His intuition told him that this sloppy child did not mean any harm. On the contrary, the child made him feel cordial somehow. He did not hesitate any longer and swallowed the whole piece of the fish.

“Hahahaha...” The sloppy child burst out laughing.

The next moment, Ding Hao jumped up. Billowing Spiritual Qi was emitted from his nose, mouth, eyes, and ears uncontrollably. Just the small piece of the fish made Ding Hao feel as if he had taken an immortal elixir. The Qi in his Qi channels suddenly became vigorous and surging.

With no time to say anything else, Ding Hao quickly sat cross-legged on the ground and began to run the Invincible Fighting Method to digest the enormous energy and assimilate it into his body and Qi.

“Hahaha, fish, you’ve cultivated for tens of thousand years and were supposed to be a spiritual creature endowed with the fine spirits of the universe. Unfortunately, you were too greedy. In order to pursue the fortune that didn’t belong to you, you chose to follow the orders of humans. In the end, you suffered the fate of being eaten by humans. Don’t blame me. I’m helping you dissolve your karma...” The child muttered some words as he ate with grease all over his mouth.

After a while, Ding Hao stopped adjusting his breath.

Now he looked extremely shocked. He got up and bowed respectfully to the sloppy child, saying, “Senior, thanks for your fish! May I have your name?”

Golden Cicada and Lei Tingchan also realized at this time that this sloppy child was a terrifying existence, no weaker than Lord Buddha of the Great Leiyin Monastery.

“My name?” The sloppy child rubbed his nose, stuck out his tongue, and licked the bit of fish on his mouth corner. Then, he said with a smile, “Some people call me Li Da.”
