Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 176 - 170: Buddha Body, Demon Heart

The golden body with black blood, undoubtedly the Evil Buddha.

The ceremony of the monk sitting in the jar was interrupted, and the defensive golden bell shattered.

At this moment, the Golden Buddha has no way to retreat.

Now, the Golden Buddha can only give up the opportunity to become a Buddha this time and prepare to escape.

However, trying to escape is not so easy.

The members of Han Kun’s action squad are still quite experienced; when Lin Yuan and the Golden Buddha clashed, they took a defensive stance, blocking the escape route.

If the Golden Buddha wants to run, he must open a gap and choose a direction to escape.

It’s really unfortunate for Zhang Zhen this time!

The Golden Buddha’s chosen target is still Zhang Zhen.

Perhaps it harbors resentment against the blasphemer Zhang Zhen, or perhaps it has fought with Zhang Zhen before, knowing his strength.

The Golden Buddha flew towards Zhang Zhen like a cannonball.

Zhang Zhen instinctively braced himself, and the Golden Buddha collided with him, forcefully pushing him over ten meters away.

However, Zhang Zhen is stubborn, clearly outmatched, yet refusing to budge an inch.

Lin Yuan’s reaction was quick, the Qiankun Umbrella appeared in his hand, and he directly threw it out.

The Qiankun Umbrella hovered above the Golden Buddha’s head and spun slightly, activating the restricted area, causing the Golden Buddha to crash onto the ground with a "boom."

The power of rules within this Deceitful Demon Realm happened to counteract Lin Yuan’s "No Distance" rule power of the Yellow Springs Road.

Similarly, the rule power within Lin Yuan’s Qiankun Umbrella could perfectly counteract any flying ability.

The Golden Buddha wants to run but has lost his flying ability; he can’t escape with his heavy golden body.

There’s an old saying among the people that even a clay Buddha has three parts of anger.

Not to mention, this Golden Buddha is an Evil Buddha!

The ceremony of the monk sitting in the jar was disrupted, and he lost the chance to become a Buddha.

He had already chosen to escape, yet they still wouldn’t let him go.

The Golden Buddha, also enraged.

As the Golden Buddha got angry, the atmosphere around him changed instantly.

A gloomy and eerie aura surged out from the Golden Buddha’s body.

Moments later, the Golden Buddha began to transform visibly.

The golden lacquer on his surface started to fade, and in just two or three seconds, the original Golden Buddha turned pitch black like ink.

On the Buddha’s face, it morphed into a blue-faced, fang-bearing demon, as if a fiend rushing out from hell.

"Ruined my path to Buddhahood!"

"Die!"

"You must die!"

The Black Buddha’s voice was hoarse, dry like the friction of sandpaper, while his body continuously emitted cold, sinister aura.

Transformed into a demon?

No, this should be his true form.

He was originally the Evil Buddha; that golden statue was merely an external manifestation meant to beguile people.

Buddha is not likely to exist among Buddhas.

Even if there were Buddhas, it wouldn’t be found within the Deceitful Demon.

The only entities appearing within the Deceitful Demon are monsters, deceitful beings, demons, and other evil spirits.

Moreover, something that empties people alive, turning them into Buddha oil lamps, could never be an authentic Buddha.

The Evil Buddha is confirmed!

Of course, the Evil Buddha revealing his true form indicates that he’s ready to fight Lin Yuan desperately.

Since he has already revealed his true form, there is no longer any need for disguise.

The Evil Buddha, has fully unleashed his methods.

A faintly audible, bizarre and enchanting Buddha sound filled the surroundings.

A moment of distraction might lead one to be beguiled by this Buddha sound, losing oneself completely.

Of course, based on Lin Yuan’s strength, this alluring Buddha sound couldn’t cause him any substantial harm.

How should this be described!

While it may not cause harm, it is truly infuriating.

It’s like if a fly kept buzzing around your ear, asking if flies bite people?

Flies do not bite, but they are truly annoying.

Father once said, the only thing that can defeat magic is magic itself.

The only thing that can defeat the power of rules is the power of rules itself.

Lin Yuan thought of the long-missing Master Qi and Master Ba.

Since possessing stronger methods, Master Qi and Master Ba had seldom taken action.

However, Master Qi happened to have a Soul-Suppressing Bell.

This bell also had the effect of intimidating spirits and minds, which could be said to be similar in effect to the Buddha sound of the Evil Buddha.

You annoy me, I annoy you too!

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan summoned Master Qi and Master Ba.

As soon as Master Qi and Master Ba appeared, Lin Yuan immediately urged Master Qi to shake the bell.

"Ding."

"Ding-ling-ling."

The sound of the Soul-Suppressing Bell rang continuously, sonic attack beginning to counter the Buddha sound.

It must be said, despite being within a Deceitful Demon Realm, this Golden Buddha might not be the Tier Five Evil Spirit, Master of Deceitful Demon that Lin Yuan sought to defeat.

Yet, he still holds the home court advantage here.

Thus, his Buddha sound attack isn’t weak either.

Under Lin Yuan’s command, Master Qi’s Soul-Suppressing Bell swiftly expanded, eventually transforming into a great brass form.

Master Ba cooperated seamlessly, the chains on his body whizzing out, using them as hammers, striking heavily upon the Soul-Suppressing Bell.

"Ding!"

"Ding! Ding!"

The sound of the Soul-Suppressing Bell echoed continuously, completely drowning out the sound of the Buddha Seal.

You have beguiling Buddha sounds, and I have a soul-stirring bell sound.

Come on! Let’s hurt each other!

Lin Yuan’s methods surpass those of the Evil Buddha.

In fact, if Lin Yuan used the methods of the Punishment Department, he could easily deal with the Evil Buddha.

However, Lin Yuan didn’t use them.

The reason he didn’t is to conceal his abilities.

This super-large Deceitful Demon is something Lin Yuan had never heard of, nor seen before.

Though the Evil Buddha is strong, he’s just stronger than an ordinary Tier Six Life Pattern Master yet hasn’t reached Tier Five, nor mastered the Power of Rules.

Perhaps, once he completes the monk’s ceremony and successfully becomes a Buddha, he might ascend to Tier Five and master the Power of Rules.

However, none of that has happened.

Right now, the Evil Buddha can only be considered as a Half-Step Tier Five.

In this Deceitful Demon Realm, at most he counts as a mini-boss, while the real big boss is the controller of the Deceitful Demon hidden in the shadows.

Tier Five Evil Spirit?

No, perhaps not a Tier Five Evil Spirit.

Maybe stronger.

After all, an ordinary Tier Five Evil Spirit wouldn’t control such a massive Deceitful Demon Realm. If the controller of this realm is Tier Five, then he must be the best among Tier Five Evil Spirits.

The Punishment Department is a means Lin Yuan reserves to deal with the controller of the Deceitful Demon Realm.

It absolutely cannot be used unless it’s absolutely necessary.

After all, the Punishment Department’s strength lies in its surprise, and if its secret is revealed, it may not be as effective.

Even though the Zhong Kui Incarnation is powerful, Lin Yuan dares not use it recklessly.

He just recently experienced demonization and if he uses the Zhong Kui Incarnation again, the demonic energy might invade once more, which would be troublesome.

Last time, his little sister-in-law came all the way to save him, but this time, she might not be able to come to the rescue.

In other words, in this experience within the Deceitful Demon Realm, the strongest means he can use is the Punishment Department.

The Evil Buddha does not deserve to be defeated by the Punishment Department.

...

...

In the next moment, Lin Yuan made his move.

As Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword swung, the blood-red sword light cut through like a crimson flood dragon rising to the sea.

At the same time, the annihilating aura struck once more.

The Evil Buddha clasped a Buddha Seal, waving his hand again and again, the power of the black Buddha Hand Seal was formidable.

The sword slashed through the Buddha Seal, and as each blow followed another, the black Buddha Hand Seals were dissolved by the Power of Annihilation, turning to nothingness.

Compared to Zhang Zhen, the Evil Buddha is strong.

Half-Step Tier Five is naturally stronger than Tier Six.

However, compared to Lin Yuan, he falls short by a great deal.

Lin Yuan’s sword was swift; Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword continued to strike, and finally, the Evil Buddha could no longer hold on.

One of his arms was directly severed by Lin Yuan, and the inky black Buddha blood flowed out.

Buddha blood, black as ink, emitted an incomparably cold aura.

Though possessing a Buddha’s body, he had a demonic heart.

With an arm severed, the Evil Buddha’s combat power plummeted.

Already no match for Lin Yuan, he was now in dire straits.

"Very strong, but still not strong enough!" Lin Yuan’s eyes flashed as he struck again, severing the Evil Buddha’s other arm.

With both arms severed, the Evil Buddha completely lost the ability to fight back. Lin Yuan kicked the Evil Buddha to the ground and then, with one strike, pierced his abdomen, pinning him firmly to the ground.

Even with his ability to resist completely gone, the Evil Buddha remained unafraid, his eyes filled with fervor and obsession...

"I won’t say anything!"

"Just kill me, let me return to the embrace of the World Honored; the World Honored will redeem this world."

"I’m just a step ahead, when the World Honored purifies the world, everyone will return to the embrace of the World Honored." Though the Evil Buddha’s voice was hoarse, it was imbued with a death-defying zeal.

Lin Yuan: "????"

Lin Yuan frowned, what on earth is the World Honored, wasn’t the boss of the Deceitful King Faction called the Ghost Leader?

One Deceitful King Faction is already enough to give him a headache, now there’s another evil organization?

What on earth is this, it seems even more inhumane than the Deceitful King Faction members?

It seems, to know more, he’ll have to start with the Evil Buddha.

After all, since entering the Deceitful Demon Realm, this is the only self-aware Evil Spirit he has encountered.

Well, the big golden retriever doesn’t count, that thing is just a dog.

Surely, the Evil Buddha won’t speak, but Lin Yuan is not afraid he won’t.

With a shine of the Soul-Luring Lamp, Lin Yuan can see his soul.

If he speaks himself, he may conceal something.

However, by directly observing with the Soul-Luring Lamp, he cannot hide even if he wants to.

Let me tell you like this!

Even if he wet the bed at a few years old, the Soul-Luring Lamp would reveal it.

With a shine of the Soul-Luring Lamp, the entire life of the Evil Buddha appeared like a slideshow.

Before the eerie invasion, he was an ordinary employee working grueling overtime, bullied by both boss and colleagues for being too honest.

He dared not resist, instead opting to burn incense at temples during breaks, praying for the Buddha’s protection from bullying by his boss and colleagues.

After the eerie invasion, he suffered even more.

Such a person had no tattoos and therefore could not awaken, forcing him to live as one of the lowest ordinary people.

Everyone in his family except him was devoured by Evil Spirits, and even his long-time wife, a lover since university, ran off with a Life Pattern Master with a penchant for thievery.

While languishing in a shelter, he was oppressed, struggling desperately, up always before the rooster, asleep later than the dog, and worked harder than a mule.

Even though he tried hard, even having a full meal became a luxury.

...

...

Seeing up to this point, Lin Yuan felt a strange familiarity!

If you exclude his whole family being eaten by Evil Spirits and his wife’s elopement, isn’t this exactly his life before reincarnation?
