Chapter 1617: Chapter 1507: Buddha Karma Dual Body
Compared to the shock felt by Han Xiang, Fu Qingya, and Cheng Feng, the face of Randeng Ancient Buddha turned completely rigid on the other side.
Terrifying! freeweɓnovel~cѳm
Mu Cangqiong’s strength alone already surpassed Randeng Ancient Buddha by one entire realm. If there was any weakness to Mu Cangqiong, it would be her lack of battle experience compared to Randeng Ancient Buddha.
However, with the support of the top-tier Chaos Five Elements Heavenly Pearl, the Chaos Great Five Elements Sword Qi unleashed by Mu Cangqiong was so powerful that even Randeng Ancient Buddha’s Chaos 12th Grade Black Lotus was slightly inferior.
"Hmph, filthy woman, if you weren’t relying on the power of artifacts, you absolutely wouldn’t be my match. So don’t act high and mighty in front of me. If you’ve got the guts, let’s fight fairly without any magical treasures—" Randeng Ancient Buddha sneered at Mu Cangqiong, his expression full of disdain.
Shameless!
Utterly shameless!
The mighty former patriarch of the Buddha’s Door actually sought to pressure someone into abandoning their magical treasures for a duel?
Since when did this guy care about fairness in battle?
Didn’t he always love to ambush others?
Moreover, whenever he coveted a treasure, he wouldn’t hesitate to resort to any means necessary—scheming, betrayal, and murder.
Now he wanted a fair fight with Mu Cangqiong?
What an absolute joke!
Had he forgotten his past penchant for relying on treasures like the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Divine Beads, the Measuring Heaven Ruler, Lost Treasure Money, and the Ling Shu Lamp when dealing with others?
Not to mention forgetting that he himself wielded a Chaos 12th Grade Black Lotus?
Seeing Randeng Ancient Buddha stoop to such shamelessness, Cheng Feng, Han Xiang, and Fu Qingya felt utterly speechless.
Was this... this really the ancient patriarch of tens of thousands of buddhas?
Mu Cangqiong suddenly began to laugh, "Heh, how amusing, Randeng, I’ve truly underestimated your shamelessness. But since you once ambushed me, relying on your higher cultivation level, you shouldn’t blame me now for using a more potent artifact against you. So your attempt to provoke me is futile."
In truth, even without using any artifacts, Mu Cangqiong wouldn’t be fazed by Randeng Ancient Buddha. After all, she was now at the pinnacle of the Immortal Emperor Realm. Moreover, her body contained both the life and death Saint Marks. Her Primordial Spirit Power had also reached Second-Order Saint Consciousness, thanks to absorbing a fragment of unclaimed Primordial Spirit from Master Hongkun under the guidance of Chaos Spring Wood senior. She was merely one Sage Tribulation away from ascending to become a true Sage.
Even if Randeng Ancient Buddha had lived for countless ages and was vastly more experienced in battle, Mu Cangqiong was confident she wouldn’t lose.
Because she had also realized that Randeng Ancient Buddha’s path of cultivation stemmed from lifeless entities, and he walked both the paths of life and death.
Now that Mu Cangqiong had raised her strength and possessed boundless vitality, she was more than capable of suppressing Randeng Ancient Buddha.
Nevertheless, Mu Cangqiong wouldn’t act rashly. Firstly, yielding to provocation would make her look foolish. Secondly, she intended to make Randeng suffer a loss—finally settling the score for almost having been killed by him back then.
"Randeng, stop being clever; this Empress won’t fall for your provocations. If you can defeat me, then perhaps you might escape today’s calamity. Otherwise, your doom is inevitable..." Mu Cangqiong sneered coldly.
Though Randeng Ancient Buddha carried immense Merit Power, killing him would inevitably invite terrifying karmic repercussions. However, Mu Cangqiong—a life deity in the lower realms—ruled over countless planets populated by wood-based living beings and was responsible for regulating spiritual energy and vitality across those worlds. She carried significant Merit Power herself.
Additionally, Mu Cangqiong had cultivated by absorbing Faith Power for millions of years. After Lv Zhong passed on the microcosmic spirit condensation technique for cultivation, she had been diligently purifying the impurities and defects of Faith Power. Paired with the substantial Merit Power she gained over the years in connection with the Great Annihilation Pearl, she was well-prepared.
Most importantly, Lv Zhong’s Chaos 10th Grade Golden Lotus was rapidly evolving toward the 11th Grade. Its ability to absorb karmic energy ensured Mu Cangqiong’s safety. Furthermore, with the Chaos 13th Grade Green Lotus already suppressing Lv Zhong and his women’s destiny, they no longer feared the karmic backlash from annihilating mere Immortal Emperors.
"Damn it, she’s not taking the bait?" Randeng Ancient Buddha’s face turned ashen, his gaze flickering with uncertainty.
On the other side, Mu Cangqiong let out a cold snort, her eyes flashing a chilling light as she fixed them on him. "You’ve always loved ambushing others, stealing treasures, and taking lives—then today I’ll show you exactly what it feels like..."
Even before she finished speaking, Randeng Ancient Buddha froze for a moment as he realized Mu Cangqiong’s figure was already gone from where she had been standing.
In less than a fraction of a billionth of a second, Randeng Ancient Buddha felt an icy, bone-piercing killing intent surging from behind!
At that moment, without him being aware, Mu Cangqiong’s figure materialized like a specter behind his back, and another lower Chaos Spirit Treasure—the Soul Breaker Needle—was abruptly unleashed.
"Whoosh—"
A terrifying Primordial Spirit attack bypassed all physical barriers, piercing directly toward Randeng Ancient Buddha’s Primordial Spirit.
"Buzz..."
Randeng failed to react, but the Chaos 12th Grade Black Lotus instinctively protected its master. A shadowy black lotus light enveloped Randeng, instantly thwarting the Soul Breaker Needle’s assault.
"Chaos 12th Grade Black Lotus... I actually forgot; you’re not purely Randeng Ancient Buddha anymore. No Heaven Buddha Ancestor? Mo Luo?" Mu Cangqiong murmured in surprise, her tone tinged with regret.
Indeed, she hadn’t anticipated the Chaos Black Lotus to possess the ability to defend against Primordial Spirit and Soul Attacks.
"Hiss..."
Unharmed by the Soul Breaker Needle’s ambush, Randeng broke into a cold sweat.
While the artifact was only a lower Chaos Spirit Treasure, its attack was incredibly bizarre. Without the protection of the 12th Grade Black Lotus, any other artifact would have failed to block the Primordial Spirit assault.
Speed!
What terrifying speed!
Merely one realm higher, yet possessing such frightening speed?
Randeng Ancient Buddha was deeply shaken, for speed was never his forte.
Simultaneously, he couldn’t comprehend why Mu Cangqiong, clearly a wood-based spirit entity, exhibited speed and spatial mastery far superior to his own.
Randeng Ancient Buddha found this baffling.
He had no idea that while Mu Cangqiong was indeed a wood cultivator, she had mastered the pinnacle Yin Yang Harmony Path technique and gained extensive spatial energy insight from Lv Zhong. Coupled with her elevated soul state and Second-Order Saint Consciousness, surpassing his speed was exceedingly straightforward for her.
"Hmph, you may fail to ambush me, but I’ll be the one to counterattack..."
With an icy snort, Randeng Ancient Buddha’s eyes narrowed. With a flash of his figure, his hands formed an enigmatic seal as he voiced an incantation: "Karma Demon Transformation, Buddha’s Light Universal Salvation..."
Two Randeng Ancient Buddhas suddenly appeared—
No, wait!
One was Randeng Ancient Buddha, emanating blazing golden light and divine Buddha radiance.
The other was Mo Luo, the erstwhile progenitor of chaos demons. Later transformed into No Heaven Buddha Ancestor, he had secluded himself beyond the heavens.
Mo Luo, also known as No Heaven Buddha Ancestor, was the true master of the Chaos 12th Grade Black Lotus.
One Randeng Ancient Buddha, one Mo Luo incarnation—two figures simultaneously chanted softly, one black and one golden. Their energies coalesced, transforming into two colossal celestial dragons of contrasting colors, spiraling toward Mu Cangqiong in a synchronized attack.
The simultaneous strike of these two extreme energy types threatened to unleash an exponential surge of destructive power upon collision. (To be continued...
