The Asura Saint Son withdrew his gaze, coughed up a mouthful of blood, raised his hand and said, "Donât move, Iâll hand it over!"
He tremblingly took out an old, ancient mirror and said, "This is the Buddhaâs Clothes Mirror."
"Thereâs a projection of the Buddha inside. I havenât had time to figure out what it does exactly."
"I only beg you to give me a quick death later!"
He weakly flicked his hand and tossed the Clothes Mirror over.
The Two-star Giant Emperor stretched out his index finger, caught the Clothes Mirror, and his face showed interest as he said, "Oh? The Buddhaâs Clothes Mirror?"
He brought the Clothes Mirror in front of himself and looked into it.
He immediately froze on the spot.
Now!
The Asura Saint Son shouted, and despite his severely wounded body instantaneously moved over. With a grab of his palm, the spear landed in his hand; he poured all the strength he had left into it and viciously stabbed toward the Giant Emperorâs enormous eye!
Jiang Fan also struck without hesitation. With an instantaneous movement, he appeared above the Giant Emperorâs head.
Both hands gripping the Angel Blade, he fiercely thrust it toward the Heavenly Spirit Cover.
Neither of them had made a move before, but once they did, each strike was more ruthless than the last, all aimed straight at the Giant Emperorâs life.
But!
At this moment, as Jiang Fan looked down from above, he suddenly noticed the corner of the Giant Emperorâs mouth curl up imperceptibly.
His heart shook violently, and he hurriedly shouted, "Retreat!"
As he spoke, he had already instantaneously escaped.
The Asura Saint Sonâs face also changed drastically, and his body directly turned incorporeal.
Boom!
Smack!
They had barely retreated when the Giant Emperorâs two enormous palms instantaneously clapped down at the space above his head and in front of him.
The terrifying shockwave that erupted blasted Jiang Fan, who was in the middle of instantaneous movement, straight toward the Boundary Masterâs corpse!
Unlike the Asura Saint Son, Jiang Fanâs body was nowhere near that strong. This slap would make him explode like a watermelon, body and soul destroyed on the spot.
At this critical moment, nine-colored light flowed in Yue Mingzhuâs eyes. She raised her palm and chopped at the top of her own head.
"Go!"
All the fortune she had accumulated until now was cut off in an instant and transferred onto Jiang Fan.
Almost at the exact moment the fortune transferred over, that little golden turtle hiding within the patterns on the Boundary Masterâs thigh curiously stuck out its head.
If it hadnât looked, it would have been fine; the moment it poked its head out, its vision went dark as Jiang Fan slammed right into its turtle head.
Sanskrit instantly covered the little golden turtleâs surface, forming an incomparably powerful Barrier that dissolved all the force on Jiang Fanâs body.
Thudâ
Jiang Fan rolled down safely, completely unscathed.
He was utterly dumbfounded.
He had already released his Domain, ready to rely on it to restore his body when he was smashed to pieces.
In the end, nothing happened at all.
Bam!
But the Asura Saint Son wasnât so lucky.
He too was struck by the shockwave of the palms. His body was blown back like a fallen leaf and slammed hard into the Buddha Formation, imprinting a dense pattern upon it.
Pu!
The Asura Saint Sonâs already broken body was like a rag doll, utterly mangled.
The Two-star Giant Emperorâs eyes showed mockery. "This little trick, and you want to fool me?"
"Since itâs an item of the Buddha, how would I dare to casually try it?"
So, he had never looked into the mirror at all; he had only been testing the two of them.
As it turned out, there really was a trap.
The Two-star Giant Emperorâs gaze gradually turned cold. "Two little bugs trying to play games with me... you donât know life from death."
"Iâll kill you all, then slowly search for myself!"
He raised his spear, locking firmly onto... Jiang Fan.
"Youâre the trickiest little bug. Iâll kill you first!"
Jiang Fanâs expression changed abruptly, and he hurriedly said, "Wait!"
"Iâll take you to a Buddhaâs meditation chamber. All of his treasures are inside!"
A Buddhaâs meditation chamber?
The Two-star Giant Emperorâs eyes lit up, and the blood-colored spear in his hand paused. "Lead the way!"
Jiang Fan scrambled to his feet, leapt up, and flew toward the Boundary Masterâs forehead.
The Two-star Giant Emperor followed closely behind, and a golden, glittering entrance came into view.
This opening was not much smaller than he was; he only had to hunch over to enter.
However, the Two-star Giant Emperor noticed a wisp of black mist seeping out that carried a dangerous aura. His gaze turned icy. "Youâre trying to lure me into danger?"
Jiang Fan shook his head. "That black mist only looks dangerous. It doesnât pose much threat to the body."
After he spoke, he did not bother explaining further and walked straight into the opening.
The black mist immediately surged up, shrouding Jiang Fan.
A wave of searing pain tore through his soul. Fortunately, the Void Ancient Tree made a move again; the rustling sound dispersed the invading black mist, and a cool sensation dulled the agony.
It was just that the longer it went on, the more intense the pain became.
Jiang Fan forced himself to endure the torment, his face unchanged, and said, "This is a Boundary Masterâs corpse. The Buddha opened up the interior of his skull as a meditation chamber."
"Many of the Buddhaâs and the Boundary Masterâs greatest treasures are inside. With our strength, we canât take them away at all."
Is that so?
The Two-star Giant Emperor narrowed his eyes, watching Jiang Fanâs expression, still not believing him.
Jiang Fan said nothing more and walked to the deepest part of the cave. The dirty blood here had already flowed onto the ground.
Even without touching it, he felt an extremely intense pain.
The muscles at the corner of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, signaling that the pain in his heart was nearing its limit.
Jiang Fan clenched his teeth. With a thought, he took out an ancient Bronze Hall and pressed it heavily against the far end of the meditation chamber.
The Boundary Masterâs aura it released surged out of the cave like a tide.
The Two-star Giant Emperor, who had originally been doubtful, suddenly changed expression. "This... this is the aura of a female Boundary Master!"
"Brat, take it out, quick!"
Jiang Fan endured the pain with effort, keeping his voice steady. "This is a Bronze Hall. Itâs as heavy as Mount Tai, and it canât be stored in a Space Storage Device. I canât move it."
Bronze Hall?
The Two-star Giant Emperorâs pupils shrank. "Thatâs the Yellow Springs Realm Masterâs palace. Itâs a heavy treasure cast from mysterious bronze. Itâs said that even the Nine-Day Asura Emperor couldnât shake it in the slightest!"
At this moment, the Two-star Giant Emperor was finally tempted.
If he could open the Bronze Hall, how many treasures would be contained within?
It was just that... could there be a trap inside?
But then he thought: if even a mere Human Clan brat like Jiang Fan could freely enter and exit, how much more so for a Giant Emperor like himself?
He immediately hunched his back and squeezed his way in.
At first, everything was normal, but halfway in, a mass of black mist surged at his face, and a stabbing pain pierced his soul.
Ah!
Even for a Giant Emperor, he let out a miserable scream and roared, "You lied to me!"
He shouted as he tried to retreat.
Jiang Fan had also reached his limit by now. The veins in his neck bulged red as he let out a howl of pain. "Asura Saint Son! If youâre not dead, get your ass in here!"
The Asura Saint Sonâs broken body was falling apart, but he gritted his teeth.
He pulled out a set of blood-red armor and hurriedly strapped it on, then instantaneously moved to the entrance of the cave, using his body to brace the opening.
This blood-colored armor was also left by his mother, Dongfang Canyue. In those days she had swept all opposition aside with it, blocking the attacks of many experts.
Although it was damaged now, its power was still formidable.
Previously, heâd managed to defeat the Black Lotus of Tribulation and take it precisely because of this armor.
He held his spear braced behind him and used his body to block the Two-star Giant Emperorâs retreat.
"Get out of my way!"
The Two-star Giant Emperor roared in agony and kicked backward at the Asura Saint Son.
Bam!
The terrifying impact nearly shattered the Asura Saint Sonâs body, but the blood-colored armor absorbed most of the force.
With the support of his spear, he barely managed not to be kicked flying.
"Get out of my way!" The Two-star Giant Emperor was enraged and prepared to unleash a second kick.
But at this moment, a change occurred deep in the meditation chamber.
A wave of black dirty blood surged out like crashing tides.
It was Jiang Fan who had used Space Power to fling all the dirty blood on the meditation chamberâs floor over.
The Two-star Giant Emperorâs face drastically changed at the sight.
Just the mist alone had corroded his soul so badly; what then of the real dirty blood?
If it splashed on him, he would definitely die!
Fortunately, although his body was stuck inside the cave, that didnât mean he had no combat power.
He opened his mouth and bellowed, intending to blast the onrushing dirty blood back.
But before he could make a move, a roar of uncontrollable agony came from deep within the meditation chamber, Jiang Fanâs voice:
"Bewitching Cause and Effect! Activate!!!"
