Chapter 461 The Power of Buddha

At this moment, Mingyuan was enveloped in golden light, his Fa Xiang Zhen Shen solemn, like a lifeless statue.

Chen Fei also looked over, feeling a bit worried.

Mingyuan had forcibly mobilized the power of the buddha relic just now, leading to his own erosion and assimilation. This also meant that Mingyuan might very likely be controlled by the power of the buddha relic in the future, and at that time, would he still be himself?

No one knew the answer!

However, Ling Tianxiao clearly had his own thoughts: “Du Tian, the only way you could escape from the ancient Buddhist Sect was by using the method of an external body. Back then, Buddha was too preoccupied to deal with you; otherwise, do you think you would have merely been Sealed?”

Hearing Ling Tianxiao say this, Du Tian let out a soft snort but did not retort.

After all, the Buddha back then truly had the ability to kill him! It was only by a strange twist of fate that he could only be Sealed in the Demon God Space and expelled, which led to his current Breakthrough from the Seal.

“Buddha is Buddha. Although this God has been Sealed for endless years, with your help now, my power has recovered by thirty percent! As for you, your ambition is not small, but your strength is too poor!” A hint of disdain flashed in Du Tian’s eyes: “If it were back then, you wouldn’t even have had the chance to stand before this God!”

Facing Du Tian’s disdainful words, Ling Tianxiao nodded approvingly: “That’s true! Unfortunately, you are no longer the Demon God of yesteryear, and this era is not the one you belonged to!”

As his voice fell, Ling Tianxiao looked at Mingyuan and shouted, “Wake up!”

Mingyuan, whose eyes were tightly shut, suddenly opened them.

Perhaps due to the golden body possessing him, Mingyuan’s eyes had completely turned golden-yellow, and a clinking sound occurred with every slight movement of his body, as if his body were cast from bronze.

“amitabha! Du Tian, after years of being Sealed, have you comprehended the Dao of Buddha?” Mingyuan’s voice was incredibly deep, as if every word struck one’s heart.

Du Tian’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Although he boasted about how powerful he was, as if nothing mattered to him, hearing this voice now, his face showed surprise and uncertainty: “Old bald donkey, you’re actually still alive?”

“No! This is the power of the buddha relic!” Du Tian was indeed shocked at first, but then he reacted, spitting on the ground: “You still want to bluff me? Comprehend the Dao? Make me comprehend how to destroy your Buddhist Dao? A mere Divine Sense, do you really think I’m afraid of you?!”

Looking at Du Tian’s outwardly fierce but inwardly timid appearance, Ling Tianxiao smiled.

He smiled very happily. He had originally thought that Du Tian had prepared a backup plan that would cause variables, but now there was no need to worry.

“Du Tian, you are indeed stubborn. In that case, I cannot let you live!” A hint of anger flashed in Mingyuan’s eyes.

With Buddha’s wrath, Brahma flames enveloped him.

Divine Light Buddha Fire instantly appeared before Mingyuan.

“amitabha Buddha said, let the divine fire burn all sins!” Mingyuan raised his hand and gently pushed forward, and the Buddha Fire instantly spread, making the entire space much brighter!

Du Tian naturally did not want to be captured without a fight. He shook his head, and a black shadow directly enveloped him. At the same time, the Black Sky Divine Mist condensed into a ball of mist and rushed towards the Divine Fire.

Upon contact, a look of delight appeared on Du Tian’s face.

“Hahaha! Old bald donkey, you’re bluffing me! Do you really think I’m afraid of you?!” Du Tian clearly perceived that the Buddha Fire before him had no threat whatsoever. Although it seemed grand and imposing, its burning state and appearance were nothing to him!

“Perish!” Du Tian suddenly pushed his hands forward, perhaps with too much force, causing the fat on his belly to jiggle with the motion!

Cracks suddenly appeared on Mingyuan’s golden-light-covered body, and his eyes finally lost their indifferent, all-knowing expression, replaced by pain and anger.

Du Tian’s counterattack brought Mingyuan’s consciousness back!

The first thing Mingyuan did upon regaining consciousness was not to look at Du Tian, but to turn his head towards Ling Tianxiao.

At this moment, Mingyuan’s expression was extremely complex.

Ling Tianxiao was Lingyue’s biological father! This identity made him unwilling to believe that Ling Tianxiao was the mastermind behind everything, as Lingyue had truly died! Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!

This was not something that could be explained away as a mere mistake!

His eyes held anger.

Inside the Demon God Space, he saw countless mummified corpses; these were all living people! Many of them were even from Zhenbei City! But they had all been used as sacrifices, offered to the Demon God Space!

How could he accept this!

Taking a deep breath, Mingyuan asked with a trembling voice, “All of this, was it really done by you?”

Ling Tianxiao stood with his hands behind his back. Hearing Mingyuan’s question, he showed no hesitation or evasion, not even averting his gaze. He nodded calmly and said, “Yes!”

Mingyuan’s body swayed abruptly, and he nearly fell to the ground.

Chen Fei flashed to his side and helped him up.

The moment Chen Fei touched Mingyuan’s body, he couldn’t help but frown. Mingyuan’s current physical condition was extremely poor! His vitality was almost completely cut off, sustained solely by the powerful Qi Strength within his body. If this Qi Strength dissipated, Mingyuan… would die!

Mingyuan, however, ignored Chen Fei’s support, raised his hand, and tearfully asked, “Why! Lingyue was your own daughter! And those innocent people you sent in, they were all residents of Zhenbei City who completely trusted you and accepted your protection!”

Facing Mingyuan’s desperate questioning, Ling Tianxiao’s expression remained as indifferent as ever.

“Back then, Lingyue was lively and playful, and I also disliked her living in the harsh, cold lands of the Northern Wilderness all day. That’s why I agreed to let her go to Tianqing Holy Land to study, after all, I, King Zhenbei, still had some influence!” Ling Tianxiao slowly stepped forward: “And it was after Lingyue left the Northern Wilderness that I finally found the method I had been yearning for to Breakthrough to the Void Realm!”

“Although I had already obtained the buddha relic, the power within it had always resisted my absorption, and I could feel that powerful Divine Thought!” Ling Tianxiao walked to Mingyuan’s front with his hands behind his back, his gaze deep as he stared at him: “And then you just happened to arrive!”

“Originally, I planned to have you marry into our family, but back then, the Yao Race came seeking cooperation and needed to borrow the power of Demon Emperor Tian Zheng within the Mu Tu!” Ling Tianxiao sighed softly: “One can only say that life is unpredictable; I never expected that a flaw would ultimately appear.”

“Lingyue died unexpectedly. I knew I couldn’t keep you, so I could only use this method to make you accept the buddha relic! And willingly come to the Northern Wilderness.” Ling Tianxiao’s voice was devoid of any emotion, appearing very indifferent.

Chen Fei couldn’t help but raise his head to observe him upon hearing his words.

Ling Tianxiao was truly indifferent. No, his eyes only held the Void Realm! For him, everything could be sacrificed to enter the Void Realm! Everything could become his stepping stone!

Mingyuan’s emotions, on the other hand, had calmed down. He hung his head, as if his body had been drained of its bones: “What if I directly disperse my cultivation? You won’t get anything you want!”

Ling Tianxiao tilted his head and glanced at him, his expression as indifferent as ever: “Can you do that?”
