Chapter 1027: Chapter 83: Demon of Longevity [Two in One]

"This is not as planned!"

Atop a tall sand dune in the desert, this was the designated meeting spot for Venerable Wanfa and Evil Ksitigarbha after their planned escape. Though the two had met here, the process was more convoluted than anticipated.

"It’s within reason that the Shu Mountain Sect would come to aid. After the destruction of Tianshu Pavilion, it would have been strange if Nine Heavens and Ten Lands had no response," Venerable Wanfa said with a smile. "You said you could handle a Limiter with no problem, I didn’t expect you’d be beaten to such a state by the Ash Burn Daoist Master."

Across from him, Evil Ksitigarbha’s face was charred, and his shell cracked, looking more miserable than ever.

This was all due to the newly promoted Ash Burn Daoist Master among the reinforcing troops from Shu Mountain.

She was brutally fierce in her assault.

The raging Samadhi Divine Fire hit right when Evil Ksitigarbha was at his weakest, nearly costing him the ability to return.

Of course, this was also because he himself was not strong enough. He assumed it would be easy to possess the Venerable Azure Dragon and unexpectedly seize the Eastern Sea Time Wheel. Instead, he was expelled from his state of soul possession by the Venerable Azure Dragon, which left him no choice but to strike forceibly.

That’s when he was caught by Empress Feng.

Luckily for him, the grand path wielded by the Venerable Azure Dragon and the Eastern Sea Time Wheel were incompatible, allowing him to succeed. Had Daoist Cang Sheng still been alive, with Daoist Wu Ya wielding the Eastern Sea Time Wheel, they might have been able to suppress Evil Ksitigarbha in return.

It seems the weakening caused by the Demon God was far greater than he showed. Considering that he had defeated the only Ninth Realm in the world, it’s no wonder he paid such a hefty price.

"Once my cultivation is restored, I must eradicate the entire Shu Mountain Sect." Evil Ksitigarbha said bitterly, "No, I originally intended to annihilate this realm. I will take that woman’s godly soul, imprison it, and torture her for a thousand years! Let her never transcend this fate!"

Had he been suppressed by a Ninth Realm, he wouldn’t be so enraged; it was being defeated by a cultivator of the Eighth Realm that felt so humiliating.

Additionally, some of his emotion was due to rage born of humiliation.

He told Venerable Wanfa he could easily crush a Limiter to deter him from harboring ill intentions. In reality, he had nearly been killed by the Demon God and with his wounds so severe, how could he recover so quickly?

He thought he could handle a Venerable Azure Dragon without exposing anything, but then Empress Feng appeared and literally tore him apart.

His forced appearance was also a desperate measure, since with the fall of the Demon God, the Limiters of this world were fiercely contesting for supremacy. Should a new Tongxuan arise, he would be utterly trapped in the Mortal Realm. At this moment, he had absolutely no strength left to fight another Ninth Realm.

Venerable Wanfa’s arrival was just in time to alleviate his predicament.

If he could truly help him regain his peak condition swiftly, how about eliminating all his competitors for him?

Of course, Evil Ksitigarbha would eventually kill all the Limiters, but Venerable Wanfa would be the last to go.

He knew Venerable Wanfa harbored no good intentions either, but he had to use his power; otherwise, he couldn’t win against other Limiters. Yet once he truly ascended to godliness, the first thing he’d probably do was to kill him.

The two men were well aware of each other’s malicious intentions; in a way, they truly exchanged sincerity for sincerity.

"Let’s discuss that later. Give me the Time Wheel," Venerable Wanfa said. "With Daoist Wu Ya powering the Eastern Sea Time Wheel, we can reverse the time on your body back to before the battle at Shu Mountain, and you will return to your peak. But given your high realm, if I have to make it happen, it might heavily drain my spiritual power."

"As long as you can help me restore my power, why need you intervene yourself?" Evil Ksitigarbha said with a fierce slap of his palm. "I’ll slaughter those Limiters as easily as plucking items from a bag."

This wasn’t an exaggeration; should he return to his peak, dealing with several Limiters would naturally not be difficult. Back in the Netherworld, the Ten Halls Ghost King, equivalent to a Limiter, had no means to challenge him.

Venerable Wanfa looked deeply at Evil Ksitigarbha, then solemnly said, "I hope you’re not deceiving me."

Evil Ksitigarbha pounded his chest heavily, then raised three fingers, "I swear on the lives of all my kin."

Venerable Wanfa pondered for a moment, then asked, "Do Heavenly Demons have kin?"

"Hurry up!" Evil Ksitigarbha shouted angrily. "Why all the nonsense! Can you do it by yourself or not?"

"Fine..." Venerable Wanfa took the Eastern Sea Time Wheel, took a deep breath, and tapped into the Daoist Wu Ya.

He and the Azure Dragon were similar, both having grasped the Daoist Wu Ya but not yet mastered it, so his control and power output with the Time Wheel were definitely inferior. But with his profound cultivation, fully activating it could achieve the desired effect as long as he was willing to deplete his resources.

Whoosh—

The Eastern Sea Time Wheel hovered mid-air, and in an instant, its light struck Evil Ksitigarbha, enveloping him in a vortex of time. Suddenly, Evil Ksitigarbha’s lifespan began to deplete at a rapid pace.

Immediately sensing something was amiss, Evil Ksitigarbha’s eyes flashed red. "You are trying to kill me!"

He began to struggle frantically, trying to break free from the vortex, but with a snap of his fingers, Venerable Wanfa launched the Universe Ring, trapping him firmly in place.

The combination of the Universe’s Time Wheel left the current Evil Ksitigarbha with no means of escape!

"Agh—" Evil Ksitigarbha roared in fury, once again feeling the shadow of death, an experience alien to him as a heavenly demon of the Upper Realm. Yet in recent days, he had repeatedly faced life-threatening dangers.

"Stop!" Seeing that the other party would not cease, and with his life flickering crazily, nearing its end, Evil Ksitigarbha began to beg, "I’ll be your slave, your servant, just please spare my life!"
