Chapter 1207: Chapter 1061: The Secret of the Buddha King

Sun Moon Divine Breath Array.

In the midst of Thousand Monument Mountain,

Fang Xi’s Origin Soul appeared, transforming into a youth in yellow garments, with a noble and handsome air.

"Hmm?"

At this moment, his Divine Thought made contact with the message broadcasted by the Array Spirit.

The figure that emerged within his Divine Consciousness was vast and unfathomable, with a stature like a colossal mountain and white hair that resembled thrusting long swords, an aura shockingly intense to the utmost degree.

’Thousand Swords Old Man!’

With a thought, Fang Xi knew without a doubt that this had to be the Thousand Swords Old Man.

At this time, there was only a view of the old man’s back, yet it carried an irresistible majesty.

Even Fang Xi knew that ordinary immortals would probably find it hard to lift their heads under that pressure, let alone gaze upon the true face of this Taoist Master.

The voice of Thousand Swords Old Man was aged, yet carried a solemnity, "Anyone who is a disciple recognized by me, if they can find a clue about Lord Reincarnation, I will surely accept them as a disciple and will never go back on my word!"

Fang Xi: "..."

...

’Sigh... Although the Reincarnation Taoist Seed isn’t deeply related to many Great Taos, it can still complement them, inevitably leaving some issues behind.’ Fang Xi sighed inwardly, but he did not regret it.

After all, if he had combined with the Void, or even the Five Elements and the Life and Death Taoist Seed, he might have perished under the obstruction of a Taoist Master.

Though the Reincarnation Taoist Seed was coveted, because no one had comprehended it before, the Tao Resonance was comparatively weak, making it a true opportunity.

He visited a few places and found that many immortals were gathering, eagerly discussing affairs related to the Beichen Immortal Domain.

’It seems that Thousand Swords Old Man can’t find me and has started to cast a wider net...’

He sighed silently in his heart.

"Look quickly, Immortal Luo is dueling with someone on the Life and Death Stage again..."

"This woman is indeed resolute in character!"

"It’s said that she was deeply obsessed and somewhat foolish in the past, suffering many losses... now she’s reclaiming them one by one. Three Elements Taoist just fooled her out of a few pieces of Immortal Jade, and his Origin Soul was pierced by a sword, and he is still recuperating..."

"That’s only because Three Elements Taoist’s Origin Soul is formidable, holding the position of an Earth Immortal; otherwise, it would have been even worse... like that ’Black Sky Immortal’, rumored to have his Origin Soul vanquished, even involving many of his incarnations. His fall has been confirmed..."

...

One after another, the immortals flew out, eagerly heading towards a certain area in Thousand Monument Mountain.

Fang Xi’s heart stirred, and he immediately followed.

Rustle!

A series of chains spanned across the Void, raising a massive and ancient stone platform.

Atop this platform was a Great Array as if a tremendous ritual had been performed, inside which was a world large enough to accommodate immortals battling within.

This was the Life and Death Stage!

The place in Sun Moon Divine Breath Array where disputes were resolved!

By the time Fang Xi arrived, many immortals were already gathered around the Life and Death Stage, all quite excited.

This too was human nature.

Moreover, even though those who came here were Origin Souls, if the Origin Soul was injured, it likewise greatly affected the immortals.

There were also various Secret Skills that could directly annihilate all main bodies and incarnations.

Therefore, this Life and Death Stage truly lived up to its name.

Countless immortals sent their Divine Thoughts into the world atop that array platform; they saw two figures swiftly exchanging blows.

Since Thousand Swords Old Man chose disciples through Sword Array enlightenment, his recognized disciples naturally mostly used swords, even if they did not follow the path of sword cultivation, they were also well-versed in swordsmanship.

At this moment, one of the female immortals stood above a crystal-clear sword river, a Flying Sword whirling and dancing around her, it was Luo Fu!

Luo Fu’s opponent was a majestic and powerful middle-aged man, holding a giant sword that was entirely black, with a Pixiu beast at the hilt.

"Luo Fu... when you gave the ’Mulberry Dew Leaf,’ there were immortals who witnessed it. Now you’re unrelenting, losing the demeanor of the Luo Family’s Taoist offspring..." the middle-aged man wielding the black giant sword shouted.

"So much nonsense!"

Luo Fu’s face was cold as millennia-old ice, from her unknown origin came a sword light so profound and full of ruthless sword intent, stirring the sword river beneath her feet, suddenly transforming into a sky of violent rain, a shower of pear blossoms, turning the world into a whirl of white...

Clang clang clang!

Sword Qi, like pear blossoms, pierced within three feet of the middle-aged sword immortal, only to be devoured completely by the Pixiu beast.

"Fine then... Today I’ll let you witness, the Sword Table I’ve cultivated arduously for years, a Secret Skill I’ve achieved... Whale Devouring the World!" the middle-aged sword immortal shouted, his hands gripping the sword.

Amid the heavens and earth, countless sword scars emerged, carrying strands of Taoist resonance, transforming into the ferocious head of a Pixiu beast.

The head of this alien beast opened its enormous maw and swallowed abruptly.

The torrent of pear blossoms instantly disappeared by half.

Seeing this scene, onlookers all around felt a chill in their hearts, "Upper Evil Sword Immortal’s swordsmanship has greatly advanced; he must have had some enlightenment on Thousand Monument Mountain... He has hidden his cultivation level; also a Combine Taoist of four steps, this is going to be a good show."

"Hahaha!"

Upper Evil Sword Immortal burst into a long howl, wielding the black giant sword in his hand.

The Pixiu beast head, seemingly capable of swallowing heaven and earth, once again opened its mouth, and a series of black thunders swept across the surroundings.

"Hmph!"

Luo Fu snorted coldly, her hand revealing an odd flying sword.

She extended her jade finger and gently flicked the blade.

A sword’s hum instantly echoed throughout.

The Upper Evil Sword Immortal immediately felt an inexplicable fluctuation sweep over him, even forgetting what he was about to do.

The head of the alien beast Pixiu hung in midair, becoming confused in an instant.

"The Sword Qi from my sword carries the intent to forget; the more Sword Qi you consume, the easier you fall under my influence..."

Luo Fu’s flying sword transformed into a streak of white light, piercing through the Upper Evil Sword Immortal’s chest like a long rainbow through the sun.

"You... I..."

The Upper Evil Sword Immortal’s Origin Soul scattered, clearly suffering severe injuries.

He looked at Luo Fu across from him, his face showing a hint of fear, and immediately shouted, "I concede..."

"It’s too late!"

Luo Fu waved her flying sword, and countless ice-like swords filled the heavens and earth, engulfing the Upper Evil Sword Immortal in a blizzard of swords.

The sword-marked Pixiu instantly shattered to pieces.

"Luo Fu... for today’s defeat, I will surely repay you handsomely in the future!"

Moments later, the storm ceased, and only a lonely voice rang out between heaven and earth...

"Luo Fu has won!"

"This woman truly deserves to be regarded as a remarkable and unparalleled female swordswoman of the past million years..."

The Immortals around immediately burst into discussion.

Even an Immortal with a mercantile smile on his face began to spread the word, "Do you know why Sword Immortal Luo struck? This is actually..."

Suddenly, he saw Fang Xi and flashed an unnatural look on his face.

"Taoist friend Wan..."

Fang Xi saw Know-it-all but chuckled as though he had already forgotten their previous grievances, "You’ve come at the right time, there’s something I’d like to ask..."

"Oh? I wonder what Taoist Friend would like to inquire about? If it’s about Immortal Luo, then forget it..."

Know-it-all preemptively shut down the conversation, obviously still shaken by Luo Fu’s frenzy.

"Not that..."

Considering Luo Fu, Fang Xi planned to help her once in the future to settle their karma and thus was very relaxed. He only said, "I heard about the matter of the Thousand Swords Old Man taking on a disciple and am also quite interested in Lord Reincarnation... I would like to inquire about some related information."

"Is that the case, please speak..."

Know-it-all readily invited.

After all, he was in the business of information, and he would treat any customer with respect.

"I heard that the Thousand Swords Old Man once saved Lord Green Cloud... I wonder, what is the relationship between this Lord and the Thousand Swords Old Man? Could it be that he truly is a formal disciple?"

Fang Xi raised his question.

"It’s about that..."

Know-it-all said, "I’ve also just learned that among the teacher’s disciples there was an Ascending Cultivator... The Taoist Master Qingping who ascended before Tian Chong, he is Lord Green Cloud’s alias!"

"Indeed?"

Fang Xi murmured and then asked, "As for Lord Reincarnation, do you have any clues?"

"That..."

Know-it-all looked troubled and secretly transmitted a Divine Thought.

Fang Xi nodded and tossed over a Storage Talisman.

Know-it-all immediately smiled, "Taoist friend is straightforward... Lord Reincarnation was originally making a breakthrough at the Western Pole Golden Bamboo Sea Spirit Mountain... According to my guess, it might be related to the Bliss Profound Realm, as the Brahman Sect’s longing for reincarnation is not a day or two’s affair..."

"Brahman Sect... Reincarnation?"

Fang Xi could barely suppress a smile, ’Indeed, at least half the blame for all this can be placed on the Self-Proclaimed Knowledgeable King Buddha of the World...’

"Bliss Profound Realm has only one Brahma Sect Taoist Master; could it be possible to raise a Lord Reincarnation?"

Fang Xi asked with some surprise.

"The Brahman Sect has profound foundations, the Bliss Profound Realm is only one of the thirty-six minor realms of Brahman..." Know-it-all shook his head, "Who’s to say there isn’t a Taoist Master secretly hiding? Moreover... with so many Taoist Masters descending this time, even the Self-Proclaimed Knowledgeable King Buddha’s background was investigated and revealed... It turns out he was once a Sky Demon who later converted from demon to Buddha, entered the Brahman Sect, cultivated diligently for countless years, and finally became a Brahma Sect Taoist Master."

"A Sky Demon origin?"

Fang Xi was puzzled, for this was news to him.

However, thinking it over, he felt even more like he owed an apology to the Self-Proclaimed Knowledgeable King Buddha.

"Exactly, not only a Sky Demon but an extremely formidable one... The widely spread Demon Skill ’Self-Transforming Heavenly Sovereign Commanding Ten Thousand Spirits True Demon Skill’ was created by this demon. It is said that cultivators are absolutely unable to become Sky Demons and when they attempt to overcome the Mahayana or attain Immortal Calamity, they are blocked by this Sky Demon, which has taken too many geniuses’ foundations... Then, one day he joined the Brahman Sect, laid down his butcher’s blade, suddenly achieving Buddha Fruition Position."

Know-it-all sighed, "If it weren’t for the descent of so many Taoist Masters this time, the background of the King Buddha wouldn’t have been revealed so easily..."

"’Self-Transforming Heavenly Sovereign Commanding Ten Thousand Spirits True Demon Skill’?"

Fang Xi blinked and immediately felt no more guilt toward the Self-Proclaimed Knowledgeable King Buddha.

’So it turns out that Buddha was the original source of that Demon Skill!’

’So many Cultivators must have been harmed through the Sky Demon Transmigration...’

’My Heterodox incarnation failed to pass the Immortal Calamity, also influenced by this...’

’Looking at it this way, it’s fortunate that I didn’t insist on overcoming calamity using the resources of the True Immortal Realm, otherwise attracting the Self-Proclaimed Knowledgeable King Buddha would have been a big trouble...’

Fang Xi felt a sudden chill in his heart.

’If the Demon Skills from the Lower Realm are like this, the Kuyong Skills are even more so...’

’The karma with Kuyong Palace will make it impossible for me to avoid having a confrontation with Lord Yin Yang in the future...’
