Chapter 1703 (Raw 1715): The Holy Son Charges Over

When Xiao Chen felt that astonishing fiendish Qi, he stopped practicing Resolving the Mundane and tracked down the fiendish Qi.

Unexpectedly, when he landed, he saw such a startling scene.

Xiao Chen was not shocked at seeing Zhen Xuan die. He did not have a good impression of this bald monk at all and did not find his death a pity.

He only found this somewhat strange. When he saw that young cat-eared girl earlier, she was not that strong.

Now, she seemed ridiculously strong, instantly killing Zhen Xuan in one move. No matter how careless Zhen Xuan got, the other party should not have been able to kill him in one move.

Clearly, the young cat-eared girl's current state was not quite right. It seemed somewhat similar to when the geniuses with a Great Desolate Eon bloodline activated their bloodline.

However, her situation was much more serious. That aura was too evil and completely uncontrollable. It did not fit the normal pattern.

When Xiao Chen activated his Great Desolate Eon bloodline, he could not maintain it for long before he had to dismiss it.

If this young cat-eared girl could not dismiss her bloodline, she might explode and die soon.

Looking at the direction that the young cat-eared girl had taken, Xiao Chen entered deep thought. She still possesses some rationality. Earlier, she suppressed her own murderous intent for me.

She is rushing around. Is she trying to save herself or do something?

Thinking this, Xiao Chen followed out of curiosity. This young cat-eared girl had a lot of secrets. It was hard not to be curious.

Soon, he saw her in the distance. He did not dare to get too close, so he followed carefully.

The young cat-eared girl did not use her hands as she kept walking swiftly. She found it increasingly impossible to control her fiendish Qi.

Where is she going? Xiao Chen wondered, puzzled. The other party did not enter any halls. She moved very quickly, continuously going deeper.

After a while, Xiao Chen's questions were resolved. The young cat-eared girl left the temple through a back door.

With a thought, Xiao Chen also exited through the back door with a few flashes.

Behind the temple was a huge, vacant area that bordered on a deep valley.

The female Buddha statue that Xiao Chen saw before stood in the deep valley. It was very tall, giving off an asphyxiating feeling.

"Yang Qing?" Xiao Chen cried out softly. He saw Yang Qing standing at the edge of the cliff, looking at the Buddha statue, silent all this time.

The young cat-eared girl's target was Yang Qing, and she was currently rushing towards Yang Qing.

Hearing Xiao Chen cry out, Yang Qing turned her head back. When she saw the young cat-eared girl, who was giving off scarlet light and completely transformed, her expression changed radically.

"Stop!" Xiao Chen shouted as he gave chase. He had seen the young cat-eared girl's strength and knew how horrifying she was now.

The young cat-eared girl could kill Zhen Xuan in an instant. That would go all the more for Yang Qing.

Damn it! I'm too late.

"Whoosh!" Xiao Chen stopped halfway. He realized that even if he continued pursuing the young cat-eared girl, he would not be able to stop her.

Without much time to think, Xiao Chen instantly executed the Divine Lightning Eye.

Six purple flowers immediately appeared in Xiao Chen's right eye, spinning quickly. Dark clouds churned, and lightning flashed in the surroundings, nurturing six horrifying lightning tribulations.

When heaven raged, a sudden clap of thunder would fall.

As a Fiendish Demon, the young cat-eared girl was extremely sensitive to lightning tribulations. The moment the thunderclouds appeared, she immediately felt the changes in the world.

When the young cat-eared girl looked up, she saw six thunderclouds gathering from all directions, forming right above her head.

With a thought, the six flowers in Xiao Chen's right eye merged and formed one completely purple lightning flower.

The Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness flared with light. At this moment, the lightning tribulations in the sky suddenly merged and sent down a terrifying electric light, illuminating the surroundings.

All this took very long to describe, but it took place within only a thought of Xiao Chen's, merely the blink of an eye.

The young cat-eared girl's survival instinct prompted her to stop moving and raise her hands to block, forming a thick clump of scarlet light and encasing herself in it.

"Boom!"

The moment she did all this, the purple lightning formed by six lightning tribulations struck.

With a loud 'boom, the lightning tribulations directly pierced through the scarlet light shield, mangled the young car-eared girl's flesh, and knocked her into the air. After she fell and sprawled on the ground, she howled in pain.

Seeing the young cat-eared girl severely injured and weakened, Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He felt mentally fatigued and rocky on his feet.

Yang Qing's figure flashed and appeared beside Xiao Chen, supporting him. She asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"

Xiao Chen shook his head, feeling spent. The might of the Divine Lightning Eye's fourth layer startled him. The drain also surpassed his expectations.

This move consumed all his Mental Energy. He could not execute it again so soon; neither could he use Dharmic World.

"Speaking of which, why did you come to this place?" Xiao Chen asked, feeling confused after he calmed himself. This female Buddha in the deep valley looked very strange no matter how he looked at it.

Yang Qing remained silent for a long time before pointing at the female Buddha. "I came for her."

"Her?"

"Yes. This is one of the Kāśyapa Buddha's three thousand emanation bodies. It is the only female one and is known as the Sarasvatī Buddha. In the Great Thousand Realms, this is one of the eight statues of the Sarasvatī Buddha that is preserved."

Xiao Chen was still confused. "What does this have to do with you?"

Yang Qing looked at the statue of the Sarasvatī Buddha and smiled bitterly. "Because I…am only the emanation body of a certain person and need to absorb the lingering power of faith in this Buddha statue. Then, I have to sacrifice myself and complete the true body.

"Actually, it's not really a sacrifice. The true body is me, and the emanation body is me. There is no difference."

When speaking of the sacrifice, Yang Qing seemed very accepting of it. There was no yearning to avoid it or anything like that.

Xiao Chen now understood. He finally understood the many mysteries of Yang Qing. It was somewhat unfortunate, but it was as Yang Qing said. The emanation body was the true body, born out of opportunities from worldly emotions.

Although the character of the emanation body might be markedly different from the true body's, they were one in the end, and there was no difference.

As the two spoke, they did not notice that the severely injured young cat-eared girl was healing at a remarkable rate.

"Whoosh!"

The young cat-eared girl recovered significantly and leaped up all of a sudden, becoming as nimble as a cat and moving like a flash of lightning towards Yang Qing.

"Be careful!"

Xiao Chen's reaction was slightly faster. He shielded Yang Qing, holding the Seven Deadly Sins tightly in his hand.

"Damn it! Why does this fellow keep spoiling my plan? Am I unable to avoid choosing you?!"

With the young cat-eared girl's lingering rationality, she felt incensed and frustrated. However, she did not have much time left and could not afford to wait.

Moving at a speed beyond Xiao Chen's perception, her long, slender, and sharp nail tapped on his forehead.

The cat-eared girl immediately gained control over his life. If she wanted, she could stab her nail in, and he would deflate like a leaking balloon, rapidly losing all his lifeforce.

Xiao Chen, who was grasping the Seven Deadly Sins, did not dare move at all.

"If you want to live, don't move."

The young cat-eared girl snorted coldly and swiped her finger to the side, slicing Xiao Chen's forehead open. Blood leaked out as she moved her finger, using the blood as ink to draw a mysterious mark.

---

"Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!"

The Holy Son Ming Xuan gently crushed the head of the stone monster with his feet, producing crunching sounds as some black blood leaked out.

The bodies of the Fiendish Demons, which had died in horrible fashions, littered the surroundings.

The stone shards on the ground still quivered, trying to merge together, displaying a very strong lifeforce.

"Tribulation lightning?"

The Holy Son Ming Xuan paid no attention to the familiar sight around him, the aura of a lighting tribulation attracting his attention.

Who is undergoing a lightning tribulation? That's not right. It feels like someone summoned tribulation lightning.

Then, the Holy Son Ming Xuan thought about the news he obtained about Xiao Chen controlling tribulation lightning on Thunder Controlling Peak and facing Shangguan Lei.

A brilliant light immediately flashed in the Holy Son Ming Xuan's eyes as he revealed joy on his face. "To think that you did not go and hide, daring to search for fortuitous encounters! You are seeking your own death!"

"Boom!"

The Holy Son Ming Xuan stomped down, and Buddhist Might spread out. The resilient stone shards still moving were all crushed into powder.

The stone monster with the exceptionally strong lifeforce was annihilated.

After doing all this, the Holy Son Ming Xuan did not rush to leave. He had sensed a pair of eyes staring at him from the very start.

The Holy Son Ming Xuan knew that it was the Star-Venerate-level tree spirit.

If the tree spirit really has the ability, it would have come out and destroyed me already. Clearly, it is afraid, or else its lifespan is running out.

However, I cannot be careless, either. I have to keep my guard up against the other party fighting to the death.

After the Holy Son Ming Xuan figured out a backup plan, he gently leaped up and sped in the direction of the tribulation lightning's aura.

His pace was strangely fast, although his feet did not move. There was only a black lotus on the ground, which looked like it was carrying him, leaving behind many afterimages.

After the Holy Son Ming Xuan exited the temple and looked up, he happened to see the transformed young cat-eared girl pulling her finger back.

The fiendish Qi covering the young cat-eared girl withdrew and continuously compressed inside her body. Finally, she turned into a white cat and lay down at the side.

Xiao Chen released his bated breath, revealing a fatigued expression as he turned. Then, he saw the Holy Son Ming Xuan, and surprise flashed in his eyes. It's him!
