Chapter 552 Impatience and Greed! Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Unleashes His Power!
After a brief pause, Huang Tian let out a long sigh and said with emotion:
"Haotian is really working too hard!"
"His posture clearly indicates he's aiming for the subsequent path to sainthood!"
Upon hearing what Huang Tian said, Zhen Yuanzi nodded and softly hummed in agreement.
"This Haotian is the Heavenly Emperor."
"After the Heavenly Court was re-established, its foundation was unstable."
"If he cannot seize this opportunity to attain sainthood, how will he command respect from all sides in the future?"
Haotian and the others could neither agree nor disagree with Zhen Yuanzi's words.
After a moment of silence, Huang Tian took a deep breath and said:
"Gentlemen."
"The great war between our Primordial World and the Xuanhuang Realm has now entered a stalemate."
"It will probably be quite some time before the war ends."
"During this time, while you all remain cautious, I hope you will also slay as many enemies as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi and the others nodded in agreement.
Although the number of Quasi-Saints killed by the human race is far less than that killed by Haotian.
But the battle is not over yet, and it remains to be seen who will ultimately emerge victorious.
……
Four hundred years later.
On a battlefield where saints once fought, a deafening roar suddenly erupted.
Everyone looked up and saw that the saint of the Xuanhuang Realm who had entered the Dao through "arrays" was trapped in the dragon, which was severely injured by the world-destroying millstone that Niu Ben had unleashed.
"He is the Dragon-Trapping Saint of the Xuanhuang Realm!"
"He was severely injured by Daoist Niu Ben."
"What a pity! We didn't manage to kill him."
"In the previous great battle against the Devouring Universe Realm, Dao Lord Niu Ben used the World-Destroying Millstone to completely annihilate a Saint."
"I must say, the Dragon-Trapping Saint of the Xuanhuang Realm is quite formidable; he didn't die and even managed to escape."
"..."
The Primordial Alliance was abuzz with discussion.
While shocked by Niu Ben's formidable strength, they also felt a sense of regret.
After all, the two sides had fought for more than four hundred years. Many quasi-saints had perished, but none of the saints had truly fallen.
Especially Niu Ben, who had previously killed several saints of the Xuanhuang Realm, but was eventually resurrected by the Xuanhuang Realm.
This time, Niu Ben unleashed the innate supreme treasure, the World-Destroying Millstone, intending to completely suppress and kill the Trapped Dragon Saint.
Who would have thought that the Sage Who Trapped the Dragon would still manage to escape in the end.
"call!"
At this moment, in the void battlefield, Niu Ben let out a long sigh, his expression slightly solemn.
He has fought against the Sage of Trapped Dragon more than once here.
Before that, he had fought against three saints of the Xuanhuang Realm all by himself, including the Saint of Trapped Dragon.
Unfortunately, after witnessing his strength, the three sages, including Kunlong, did not choose to engage in a prolonged battle, but instead used their secret techniques to escape.
After that, the saints of the Xuanhuang Realm became noticeably more cautious when they encountered him, and would basically turn and run away as soon as they saw Niu Ben.
Several times, Niu Ben pursued and killed the opposing sage.
But who would have thought that those saints, after their fall, would be resurrected by the power of the Xuanhuang Realm?
After a moment's thought, Niu Ben composed himself and, in a flash, left that void.
At this moment, deep within the Xuanhuang Realm.
The Sage Who Trapped the Dragon appeared, covered in wounds.
"Huff huff..."
He was panting heavily, his face deathly pale.
"hateful!"
"That...that Niu Ben is too strong!"
"Among the many saints of my Xuanhuang Realm, I fear none can rival him."
"I'm afraid... only the Ancestor could intervene and suppress it!"
The Sage Who Trapped the Dragon murmured softly, his expression extremely solemn.
Then, he glanced down at the injuries on his body.
"And his treasure nearly obliterated me completely."
"This injury will likely take a very long time to heal!"
After a moment's thought, the Sage of Trapped Dragon took a deep breath, and without further hesitation, he transformed into a streak of light and vanished.
……
Six hundred years later.
A great battle broke out between the Xuanhuang Realm and the Primordial Allied Forces.
In this battle, because the Xuanhuang Realm lacked the Dragon-Trapping Saint, the battle at the Saint level began to tilt.
It should be understood that the primordial saints already had the advantage in strength, and now that the Xuanhuang Realm has lost a saint, it is naturally even more disadvantaged.
After a fierce battle, the Xuanhuang Realm army suffered repeated defeats and its morale plummeted.
However, just when things were going so well, Haotian encountered an unexpected problem.
Because he fought too hard, he finally suffered a vicious revenge from the Quasi-Saint of the Xuanhuang Realm.
In order to deal with Haotian, the other side meticulously planned an ambush.
First, they sent a quasi-saint to lure Haotian deeper into the territory.
Haotian, driven by greed, relentlessly pursued his opponent, only to fall into the opponent's gauntlet in the end.
Seven quasi-saints from the Xuanhuang Realm joined forces to launch a frenzied siege against Haotian.
"Haotian! You killed fourteen Quasi-Saints of my Xuanhuang Realm, today is your death day!"
The seven quasi-saints joined forces, unleashing a variety of supernatural powers and magical treasures, forcing Haotian to retreat step by step.
Although Haotian was brave, he was no match for four hands, and soon he was covered in wounds, his holy blood staining his battle robe.
"hateful!"
"How could I, the Emperor... die here?"
Haotian gritted his teeth and used all his strength to activate the Heavenly Emperor Seal. A golden light shot into the sky, knocking the two Quasi-Saints back.
However, the attacks from the other five Quasi-Saints landed on him simultaneously. Haotian groaned and finally couldn't hold on any longer, flying backward.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Yaochi led the people of Heaven to the scene and risked their lives to rescue Haotian.
Although Haotian survived the battle, his injuries were too severe, forcing him to temporarily withdraw from the battlefield and return to the prehistoric allied forces' encampment to recuperate.
While Haotian was recuperating, many Quasi-Saints and Sub-Saints in the Primordial World also began to exert their power.
After all, Haotian had killed fourteen Quasi-Saints from the Xuanhuang Realm, a feat that can be described as illustrious.
Among them, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is the most prominent.
This disciple of the Western religion kept a low profile and cultivated himself in the underworld.
However, during the years that Haotian spent recuperating, he displayed astonishing combat power.
He walked alone on the battlefield, targeting lone quasi-saints from the Xuanhuang Realm, transforming his grand vow of "I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty" into boundless combat power.
In just a century, the number of Quasi-Saints from the Xuanhuang Realm who died at the hands of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva reached as many as thirteen, almost surpassing Haotian's previous record.
Soon, the deeds of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva spread among the prehistoric allied forces.
"This Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva... he's usually so quiet, I never expected him to be so powerful!"
"Western religions are full of hidden talents and should not be underestimated."
"Haotian has only been recuperating for a little over a hundred years, yet Ksitigarbha has actually killed thirteen Quasi-Saints from the Xuanhuang Realm. It's truly terrifying!"
"It seems that it won't be long before Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva surpasses Haotian."
"..."
Soon, the news reached Haotian, who was recuperating at the base of the Primordial Allied Forces.
Upon hearing this news, Haotian immediately became restless.
His injuries had not fully healed, but he couldn't care less about that now.
Soon, Haotian returned to the battlefield and continued hunting down the quasi-saints of the Xuanhuang Realm.
In Haotian's view, this place was the true quasi-saint assassin.
Moreover, the reason why he risked his life to kill the quasi-saints of the Xuanhuang Realm was precisely because he was after the saintly Dao Fruit.
If Ksitigarbha were to surpass him, wouldn't all his previous efforts have been in vain?
