Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader-Chapter 1226 - 956: Divine Statues—Face to Face with the Heavenly King!

Chapter 1226: Chapter 956: Divine Statues—Face to Face with the Heavenly King!

Jiang Dali’s expression slightly relaxed as he stood calmly, smiling freely, "Fluttering butterflies among the flowers, dragonflies hovering softly. The master’s repeated assistance truly moves this village chief greatly."

The Heavenly Monk said, "Master Jiang is attached to appearances. I am indifferent to all things, why not let them surround me? I do not attempt to move you with such trivial aid, akin to a spark, but helping others brings great joy, a joy we share together. However, to assist in evil..."

"Alright, alright, stop rambling, this village chief remembers!"

Jiang Dali decisively sealed off the effects of the Breaking Realm Pearl, so the incessant chatter of the Heavenly Monk no longer echoed by his ear.

He wondered if all monks babble so much; at least, after spending time with the Heavenly Monk, he found him quite naggy. If it went on, they might turn into enemies.

Glancing at Zhu Yunwen, who was still groggy and dazed, Jiang Dali flicked the acupoint near Zhu Yunwen’s ear, instantly knocking him out.

Then he turned around, lifted Noble Consort Wang’s corpse, and began exploring the unknown destination within the wide secret passage.

He harbored some guesses and doubts, but none were confirmed through Zhu Yunwen, leading him to wonder if he was overthinking things. He regretted focusing only on questions about the Blood Transformation Divine Venerable and forgetting to ask about Zhu Wushi.

Now, with Noble Consort Wang, Blood Monk, and Xu Ruowu all dead, he had no one left to question.

"A moment of fighting is thrilling, but when it’s over, there’s hell to pay! I was very restrained just now; from the start, I intended to catch them alive, yet I accidentally ended up killing them."

Utilizing the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber for illumination, Jiang Dali moved quickly through the passage, filled with dampness and a faint strange fragrance, feeling rather vexed. His Spiritual Sense gradually spread, hoping to uncover other clues in this secret passage located in the Imperial Palace’s harem.

...

A tea time passed.

His Spiritual Sense suddenly detected an obstruction ahead, yet the space above was unexpectedly clear.

Realizing it as another place, with no other paths available, he sped forward swiftly.

Looking up, he saw a solid stone slab above, as black as coal.

His Spiritual Sense judged the stone slab to be at least four feet thick.

There should be a mechanism to open the stone slab around here.

Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to move the slab from inside.

Jiang Dali disregarded looking for any mechanism; he himself was the mechanism to open doors.

He directly powered with his legs, giving the ground a stomp.

The ground sunk silently half a foot deep beneath his feet, and his body shot up like a cannonball, his left shoulder akin to a great gun, his muscles and bones bulging strongly, fiercely impacting the stone slab above.

With a loud bang, the four-foot-thick stone slab rattled tremendously, flipped over by the massive force, crashing down with a thunderous roll, shaking the entire hall several times.

Jiang Dali, holding one person in each hand, flipped in midair and landed lightly on the ground.

He glanced around and found himself within a Xuanmu Temple’s Divine Temple.

The surrounding corridors were supported by dragon and phoenix pillars, displaying grandeur.

The large gold statue of Lady Xuanmu, which reached up to the temple roof, exuded an aura of solemnity and dignity, under the illumination of the long-lasting lamps flanking it, while around the room stood four different statues of the Four Heavenly Kings representing the east, south, west, and north.

Jiang Dali was shocked, not expecting the secret passage beneath Noble Consort Wang to lead to such a shrine inside the Imperial Palace.

This was quite intriguing; he often claimed that even the Heavenly King couldn’t control him.

However, here he was, directly in front of the statues of the Four Heavenly Kings and Lady Xuanmu, seemingly ready to oversee his actions.

"The Ming Country, while also believing in Buddhism, would never allow divine authority to suppress imperial authority. This should be a secluded area within the palace... I... hmm?"

His scattered Spiritual Sense suddenly experienced a ripple of anxiety.

Simultaneously, the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber behind him trembled slightly, the Breaking Realm Pearl emitting a strange, demonic radiance, especially the strong Primordial Spirit Wave of the Heavenly Monk from within.

"What is happening?"

Jiang Dali immediately activated the Breaking Realm Pearl, and the Heavenly Monk’s Primordial Spirit Wave quickly transmitted from within, "No, don’t!"

"You fool! Release this Divine Sovereign!"

The Breaking Realm Pearl shimmered, and another bloodthirsty Primordial Spirit Wave emanated, seemingly linking with a location behind the Xuanmu statue within the Divine Temple, as perceived by Jiang Dali’s Spiritual Sense.

Nevertheless, the pearl hummed and vibrated, and the Heavenly Monk chanted sutras rapidly, suppressing the vicious Primordial Spirit Wave back into silence once more.

"The Blood Transformation Divine Venerable... how is this possible?"

Jiang Dali was filled with astonishment.

A rumbling suddenly came from behind the Xuanmu statue.

A sharp gleam flashed in Jiang Dali’s eyes; he threw aside Zhu Yunwen and Noble Consort Wang and leaped towards the back of the Xuanmu statue, drawing the Great Strength Fire Qilin Saber behind him, resembling a crimson streak of brilliant light.

The scene that unfolded before his eyes sent a tremor through his heart.

Behind the Xuanmu statue, within a shrine was another statue reaching the top of the shrine.

It was a statue with a crimson face, vicious fangs, emitting the same bloodthirsty Primordial Spirit Wave from its brow, a gigantic statue clad in armor, holding a long whip resembling sections of intestines, gazing down commandingly, evoking awe, on an altar piled with what seemed to be shriveled sacrificial offerings of blood and flesh, bearing the title—Blood Transformation Divine Venerable!

"Bold! Who carved a Dharma Body for the Blood Transformation Divine Venerable!? Is it similar to Di Ni’s Dharma Body?"

Jiang Dali’s face showed astonishment and anger, and the Breaking Realm Pearl within him stirred once more.

Almost simultaneously, the majestic Blood Transformation Divine Venerable statue’s brow emitted a resentful, angered shout, the gigantic, crimson-faced, fanged statue producing the grinding sound of gears.

With a massive boom, the altar shattered, and the statue stepped out, toppling the rooftop with its huge mass, sending tiles flying, revealing the dark, metallic sheen of its steely body beneath the shattered golden clay, its legs stepping beyond the altar’s bounds,

"This Divine Sovereign will have you..."

"This village chief will have you pay dearly!!"

Boom!—

A fiery Saber Qi over twenty zhang long bridged the sky like a massive bridge, furiously cleaving the statue over three zhang tall, extinguishing its words completely within the terrifying blaze of the Saber Qi.

The Blood Transformation Divine Venerable statue cursed internally, only managing to cross its arms in time.

Clang!—An explosive sound erupted!

The over three zhang tall statue was blasted backwards like a fortress gate struck by a gigantic battering ram, crashing down, collapsing the Xuanmu statue behind it, shaking the surrounding statues of the Four Heavenly Kings of east, south, west, and north, nearly toppling them.

Amid the earth-shattering noise and rising dust, the fiery red Saber Qi split the Divine Temple in half, like a colossal sea-bridging arch, relentlessly pressing the Blood Transformation Divine Venerable statue into the ground, chopping and crushing its forearms with streaks of explosive noise.

Jiang Dali, his body radiating golden light, his steel-like muscles bulging, resembling a towering giant made of iron and gold, wielded his mighty saber, mercilessly suppressing the Blood Transformation Divine Venerable statue, letting out a vicious laugh and a roar, "Just a statue imbuing part of a Primordial Spirit, this village chief has seen greater sights, today I’m tearing you down to sharpen my saber! Not even the Heavenly King present could save you!"

"You scoundrel!!"

The Primordial Spirit housed within the Blood Transformation Divine Venerable statue roared in humiliation, so furious it could blow its top...
