CapĂtulo 1436: Chapter 697: The End of the Fierce Battle!
This is indeed a very strange matter, because according to Chen Yuan and othersâ expectations, the one appearing today should not be Spirit Mountainâs current Buddha.
But rather the Great Jinâs Grand Ancestor in the Capital.
However, whether the Court fell into decline or when Jingtai perished, he never came out to turn the tide, always hiding in the Divine Capital City.
In fact, now everyone is exhausted, if he appears now, he might truly win a great battle.
But the result nowâŠ
Itâs hard not to suspect that the old Sima traitor inside, might have long perished?
Itâs just that the Court and the Sima Clan have always been concealing this news, so Jingtai gambled everything to sacrifice to the heavens, wishing to ascend as Human Emperor.
Thereby maintaining the Sima familyâs rule.
While Chen Yuan was thinking, some others subconsciously let out a breath.
After all, the might brought by the Buddha earlier was truly overwhelming.
Among those present, not a single one could match it.
It took the combined strength of the Four Immortals to shatter the Buddhaâs Golden Body, the power he wielded was simply unimaginable.
And Spirit Mountain being the leader of the ten Immortal Sects is well-deserved.
Jiang Heâs face was somewhat pale, the strike earlier almost drained him, leaving him with little strength to fight.
Yet he glanced around and still leapt down from the void, finding Chu Changfeng gasping in the deep pit.
Seeing Jiang Heâs arrival, Chu Changfeng managed a wry smile.
The phrase âas if relievedâ best expresses his current mood.
Heâs not afraid of death, but if thereâs no need to die in battle, who would want to die?
Today, it was really just a little bit away, if not for the intervention of the Dragon Slayer Arhat, he might have already been slain by State Preceptor Pu Xian, later on, even more unable to withstand the Buddhaâs might.
âAre you alright?â
âNo worries, no worriesâŠ.â
Chu Changfeng took out a Spirit Pill from the Heavenly Book Treasure and swallowed it, beginning to slowly refine it.
Chen Yuan then walked towards Moluo, todayâs outcome wasnât ideal, leading to the Buddhaâs appearance and delivering a heavy blow to everyone.
Also completely depleting Shushan of the legacy left by the Immortal, yet overall.
His goal was achieved.
He personally ended Jingtai, completely shattering the Great Jin Dynastyâs Fortune, leaving the Courtâs remaining experts nearly dead, henceforth, heralding a new era of vying for supremacy.
And his foundation in Shuzhou, coupled with the impressive might displayed in todayâs earth-shattering battle, would be spread throughout the world, allowing him to seize the initiative in the chaotic times.
No one else, no matter who they are, could catch up to him.
Therefore, Chen Yuan could hardly be considered disappointed.
If anything, it was letting Manjusri go, also letting Xiang Qianqiu escape, causing their Qi Fortune to linger on them for a while longer.
âSeniorâŠ.â
Chen Yuan stopped, looking at Moluo.
The other still gazed in the direction where the Buddha left, pondering something, upon hearing Chen Yuanâs voice, turned to glance at him, a smile appearing on his face:
âWell done.â
This was not an empty statement, it truly meant Chen Yuan did well.
Before, upon sensing the Buddhaâs aura, he left without hesitation to buy him crucial time, yet didnât expect Chen Yuan to do so well.
Even when Jingtai combined with the Fortune of the Court, it still couldnât withstand the power of the people he gathered.
This battle directly shattered the Courtâs Fortune!
The fierce look in the old Heavenly Masterâs eyes faded slowly, replaced by clarity, he spoke:
âIndeed well done, I never expected you to do the same as before at Liangzhou City, finding Jingtaiâs weak spot, gathering the power of the people, and shattering it in one blow.â
âBoth seniors overpraise me.â
Chen Yuan shook his head, his expression calm, not reveling in the slaying of Jingtai.
âThe Buddhaâs strength is truly terrifying.â
After the old Heavenly Master finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Moluo, his eyes showing gravity.
âIndeed terrifying.â
âYet he ultimately lacked the courage to go all out; had he fought desperately, we might have returned to the earth today.â
In the old Heavenly Masterâs view, the Buddha lacked courage; after his Golden Body was shattered he was unwilling to fight again, otherwise, without Shushanâs Sword Immortal remnant and the True Martial Landâs imprint.
Just relying on them alone wouldnât be able to stop the Buddha.
Although he might lose his Origin, they would fall too.
âPerhaps itâs self-preservation, or perhaps Spirit Mountain received instructions from those people, only wishing to open the chaotic times.â
Moluo pointed upwards.
âMaybe in their eyes, weâre just slightly bigger ants anyway, unable, no matter how, to overturn the heavens like the former Chu Grand Ancestor.â
The old Heavenly Master laughed.
âEven the strong emerge step by step from the weak.â
âWhat do both seniors mean?â
Chen Yuan frowned slightly.
Moluo looked upwards, muttering:
âSomeâŠ.beings who call themselves immortals, they view the human world as mere game pieces.â
âUnderstood.â
Previously, Moluo had spoken to Chen Yuan about these matters.
However, it was limited to that, as even Moluo was not very clear on it, what little he knew, was discovered by accident from Spirit Mountain.
Thatâs why he turned against Spirit Mountain.
âChen Yuan.â
âWhat does senior wish to instruct?â
âThe time left for us is little. The time left for you is even less. Those in the Immortal Domain donât care about us, it doesnât matter, but someday, I hope theyâll regret because of you,â
