Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita obviously didn't expect that they followed the sound of a fierce fight, but when they arrived, the strange demon in the red wedding dress suddenly escaped.
What should we do now?
Dorothy Alita glanced at Higashinohara subconsciously.
As she spent this period of time living together in this hellish world, Dorothy Alita unconsciously began to seek Higashinohara's opinion when encountering something.
However, Dong Yeyuan's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly realized something, and immediately pulled Dorothy and Alita to hide in the rockery and rocks at night.
as expected.
Almost at the moment Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita were hiding, nearly ten figures suddenly passed by in the sky above their heads. In their desperation, no one noticed them hiding in the dark.
After those figures gradually faded away, Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita reappeared in the darkness, with a slight look of hesitation on their faces.
Higashinohara looked at the direction in which those people disappeared, frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to Dorothy Alita and said, "How is your injury?"
Empress Dorothy Alita shook her head, "It's nothing important to me."
Higashinohara nodded immediately and said, "Okay, then let's follow him and have a look."
In this hell world, Higashinohara and the second-generation disciples of the Nine Celestial Clan are invisible enemies, not to mention the fourth adjudicator of the Judgment Department among them.
Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.
As a guy that he would face sooner or later, Higashinohara would naturally not let him cause trouble under his nose, but chose to turn a blind eye.
Hanshan Temple is located in Sioux City.
Countless years have passed by, and the main hall, scripture collection tower, bell tower, stele corridor, Fengjiang Tower, Shuangzhong Pavilion, etc. in the temple have all been lost in the long river of time and turned into ruins.
When Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita, hanging behind the gloomy-looking disciples of the Nine Celestial Family, finally arrived in front of the main hall of Hanshan Temple, which once had a single eaves resting on the top of the mountain and a flying ridge, they could only hear the sound in the air.
Very suddenly, a loud voice like a bell came out.
The next second,
I saw a figure suddenly flying upside down.
It slammed into a copper tripod on the stove opposite the main hall, and the bronze tripod flew upside down.
Through the traces left by countless years, you can vaguely see the words "A Serious Book" cast on the front of the tripod, and the words "Steel is made into steel after a hundred tempers" on the back.
Caught up?
But if it was just a strange demon in red wedding clothes, under the siege of so many ninth-level powerhouses, how could the opponent have the power to fight back if he fled all the way here in a hurry?
The answer will soon be revealed.
With the blessing of [Nine Eyes and Six Paths], even if the moonlight is dim at night in this hell world,
But Higashinohara's sight penetrated the darkness and he still saw a golden Buddha statue with a peaceful expression enshrined on the Xumizuo carved from white marble in the main hall.
Further inside the golden Buddha statue, on both sides of the wall, are two rows of eighteen gilt-iron Arhat statues. After countless years, they look a bit like pearls covered in dust.
However, at this moment,
Higashinohara's pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly.
On top of the serene golden Buddha statue enshrined in the Sumeru throne, an old monk with ragged cassocks, haggard appearance, and an extremely ferocious face stood upside down, with his legs crossed and his eyes closed.
Two Buddhas, two faces.
A compassionate and kind person,
A strange and ferocious one.
The visual impact of this contrasting scene is extremely powerful!
A sentence popped up in Higashinohara's mind for no apparent reason: "Ask the Bodhisattva why he sits upside down and lament that all living beings refuse to look back."
Empress Dorothy Alita, who was following him, stared at the figure that had just flown upside down, and it was only then that she spoke:
"Not from the Nine Families and the Adjudication Department."
After hearing this, Higashinohara couldn't help but look at the man attentively, and he realized something was wrong.
The man's attire turned out to be that of the group of pirates who followed the Nine Celestials and the Adjudication Division in the evening.
Looking at the pirates gathered in front of the main hall, Harley Antigone, one of the Four Kings of the West Sea, and Hawke Udel, the greatest swordsman of the West Sea, "Sky Sword", are not here. Most of them are some of the Four Kings.
The big pirate below.
But Higashinohara discovered an "acquaintance", it was Sakamoto, the general of the Sakamoto Dragon Pirates who was wearing wooden clogs and wearing a purple mandala flower from Tokai.
Why did they gather at Hanshan Temple?
Thinking of this, Higashinohara's eyes once again looked at the ferocious old monk with his eyes closed who was sitting upside down with his body suspended in the air, as well as the strange devil in red wedding clothes who escaped from the ruins of the garden and was chased by the disciples of the Nine Celestial Family.
.
His eyes couldn't help but condense slightly.
This weird old monk
Could it be a purple-level strange demon?
Almost at the moment when this thought came to his mind, without any warning, the old monk with a withered and ferocious face suddenly opened his eyes with sunken outlines.
An indescribable light blue halo suddenly expanded, and unknown power suddenly enveloped the heads of everyone with the old monk in the temple as the center.
"What the hell?"
Among the nine disciples of Tianren, someone snorted coldly and shot out a light blue flame.
The flames swelled in the wind and turned into a fire dragon with fangs and claws.
Boom!
The light cyan fire dragon collided with the light cyan aperture, but it suddenly dissipated upon contact, while the light cyan aperture became more and more dignified.
It's a barrier!
Realize this.
Everyone's faces instantly became solemn.
They were all ninth-level god-level experts, but the strange and withered old monk in front of them actually dared to release the barrier and trap them all here.
The information contained in this is shocking.
There are also strong and weak purple epic level monsters.
Could it be that they encountered something hard this time?
Just when everyone was having different thoughts, they heard the old monk suddenly open his sunken eyes, put his hands together, and softly recited an obscure and weird Buddhist verse.
"It will be destroyed without any remnant, and there will be no successor."
"You should observe this way, all phenomena arise due to causes and conditions, I say it is causes and conditions."
"When all causes and conditions cease, I say so."
"Every thought is delusional, and all life is suffering."
"."
On his haggard face, the old monk's deeply sunken eyes stared at the pirates besieging the place and the disciples of the nine families who had just arrived, like invisible, dark and strange black holes.
Come take off your clothes with me."
A harsh but eerie sound like the friction of gravel came from the old monk's dry vocal cords,
Drifting with the night wind.
However, everyone present only felt that the strange language was obscure and difficult to understand, and even made people feel a little tight in their chests, and their faces became gloomy unconsciously.
The disciples of the nine families who followed the strange demon in the red wedding dress looked at the strange demon who disappeared in front of the main hall, with even more impatience on their faces.
Their purpose is very clear,
But it wasn't because of this strange old monk who appeared out of nowhere and was playing tricks on him.
Among them, Arya Rhine of the Sky Dragon Tribe and Jörmungandr Lot of the Serpent Tribe were even more so. They looked at each other and suddenly rushed towards the main entrance.
Although the second-generation disciples of the other nine families had just clashed with the second-generation disciples of the Tianlong Clan over the ownership of the strange demon in red wedding clothes.
But at this moment, the front was unexpectedly unified, and they all showed their magical powers to attack the old monk together.
Although the strange demon is strange.
But facts have proven that the strange demon will die even if it is killed.
No matter how weird you are, if you are directly blasted to pieces, you won't be weird at all.
However, at this moment,
But everyone only heard a faint sigh.
"Conquer the mind and conquer the demon."
These four simple words made the surrounding light cyan halo become more solid, vaguely integrated with the ruins of the temple hall in Hanshan Temple.
It seems that this barrier is not created out of thin air.
The entire temple is a barrier.
In the dark clouds covering the moon,
A strong wind suddenly blew up in front of the main hall of the temple, blowing sand and rocks on the ground. To be precise, it cut off a layer of the ground.
The wind cuts like a knife!
For a time, no matter it was the second-generation descendant of the Nine Celestial Family or everyone among the pirates.
At this moment, their faces instantly became serious, and everyone took back the abilities they had originally blasted out to protect themselves.
It is rare for non-corporeal ability users to be able to withstand such a terrifying wind knife.
Among everyone present, the one who is relatively relaxed is probably Sakamoto, who controls the second only purple epic ability talent sequence 21 [Yaqi Musou].
I could see his clothes rustling in the wind, but there was also a hint of coldness in his half-opened and half-closed eyes.
I'm afraid this wind is not that simple?
Higashinohara and Dorothy Alita, who were outside the boundary of [Subduing Hearts and Subduing Demons], looked at each other and couldn't help but feel glad that they were not trapped in it.
The sense of oppression brought upon him by the old monk in front of him was far greater than that of the strange devil in the red wedding dress.
If purple monsters were also divided into levels.
Higashinohara even had a vague feeling in his heart that the strange demon in front of him was most likely a ninth-level, fourth-stage, or even more exaggerated, purple strange demon from the "nine-five realm".
——Meaning that there is only a thin line between us and the orange world-destroying monster.
Let's talk about the situation in the "Heart-Subduing Demon" barrier at the moment. Although everyone inside had an excellent sense of smell, they realized something was wrong and turned their abilities into defense to protect their bodies.
But his clothes were still torn all over his body, splattering with countless bloody mouths.
Among these people, there are some pirates whose abilities below the Four Kings are only at the peak of the eighth level. They are trying to make a living at sea with their heads tied to their belts. This time, they are purely following the Four Kings into the Border Gate to try their luck.
Look for that glimmer of opportunity to change your destiny.
After discovering Hanshan Temple by chance,
They didn't think anything happened when the strange old monk who was standing upside down and sitting cross-legged closed his eyes and said nothing.
However at this moment,
When the withered old monk opened his eyes and displayed this strange enchantment,
Just this strong wind,
In an instant, those pirates who were not in the ninth level and who were not capable of the physical system were covered in blood and flesh, and they let out unusually shrill screams.
In the blink of an eye, those pirates who did not reach the ninth level and did not have the physical ability to protect themselves were thrown out like sand in the wind.
Except for the shrill howl echoing in my ears,
There wasn't even a drop of blood on the ground,
Even the figure of Sakamoto, the controller of the physical ability [Yaki Musou], could not help but tremble slightly.
Seeing this terrifying scene, Higashinohara's face outside the barrier couldn't help but have a look of solemnity, and he became more and more sure of his guess about the old monk's strength.
The eighth level peak is not just paper.
The Fuma Kotaro of the Fuma Clan, a ninja from the country of Wano, could even rely on [Sen Luo Wanxiang] to fight against the ninth-level master who controlled order, but in front of this old monk, he was like paper.
If the strength gap were not too large, this scene would never have happened.
However, compared to the calm analysis of "outsider" Higashinohara, the other disciples of the Nine Celestials and pirates above the ninth level who were trapped in the barrier were not so easy to calm down.
When life is at stake,
I'm afraid it will be difficult for anyone to calm down.
even so,
It can also be seen from their increasingly solemn expressions that many people must have realized that the old monk and the strange demon in front of them were far more terrifying than the strange demon in the red wedding dress just now.
And this gust of wind like a knife is like some kind of "trial". Those who are still standing in front of the main hall of Hanshan Temple at this moment are those who have passed the test.
But when there is wind, there will be rain.
At some point, a drop of rain fell from the head of the dark clouds covering the moon.
A snort.
The rain fell on the ground,
Suddenly it turned into a wisp of floating smoke.
Seeing this scene, the expression of the fourth judge Basidon, the controller of talent sequence 23 Ruins co-level ability [Aqua Regia], changed!
He immediately spoke to several members of the Nine Families not far away, "Be careful, there is something weird in this water."
Objectively speaking, they all came into this world as competitors of the purple monster.
Only the Fourth Judgment made Basidon different from them.
He came here on behalf of the Adjudication Division this time, and he also had a secret mission to find the empress Dorothy Alita.
And to kill the man who successively brought disgrace to the Adjudication Division from Wano to the United Tagos and then to the White Swan Port in Kyoto.
However, his strength is far inferior to that of the demon sword Pusuo Wiseman. At most, he is on par with the empress Dorothy Alita. When he got old, he was even ranked as the fourth adjudicator.
But age is also an advantage for him.
Precisely because he has lived in the urban area of Kamikyo long enough, is tactful enough, and has good friendships with the Nine Families, this time he wants to use the power of the Nine Families to eradicate Higashinohara.
The Nine Celestial Beings were naturally willing to work together to eradicate this person who was born as a human but dared to challenge their majestic family and the world government, especially Jörmungandr Lot of the Serpent Tribe.
Walker Lott, an old man from the Sky Snake Tribe, went to Wano Country to find an opportunity to break through his longevity, but was killed in Wano Country by the man wearing a dark golden dragonfly who faced him.
This made the Sky Snake clan once become the subject of after-dinner talk and the laughing stock of the Nine Families. If they wanted to kill Higashinohara, he would naturally be happy to help.
Previously, it was only because of the temporary alliance between Arya and Rhine of the Heavenly Dragon clan who wanted the purple strange demon that such a confrontational posture appeared tonight.
But they are still the same kind of people after all.
Therefore, the Fourth Judgment made Old Basidon warn them and avoid them.
Jörmungandr Lot looked up with his white vertical pupils. His eyes flickered and he seemed to see something, and his face became colder and heavier.
He suddenly shook his arms, and a huge white sea snake instantly hovered above his head, sucking in all the rainwater that hit him like a tornado.
Order. Jormungandr!
However, compared to the Nine Celestial Family and the Adjudication Division who quickly gathered together and watched coldly, the pirates not far away who had just survived the knife-like wind were somewhat caught off guard.
Many people were covered in smoke under the sudden heavy rain, and their bodies, shoulders, and backs of their heads were shrinking and scorching at a speed visible to the naked eye, emitting bursts of extremely pungent smoke.
When they realized that they could not resist the ability to release, they were horrified to find that the terrifying rain was actually slowly corroding their ability to release.
Just when the pirates were in panic,
Suddenly, like a fluttering butterfly, a figure in a purple bathrobe floated towards the old monk standing upside down on the Xumizuo in the main hall.
And this is the person who takes the risk.
Astonishingly, he is Sakamoto from the East China Sea.
Stay up late to finish work,
Please give me a guaranteed monthly ticket at the beginning of the month, lululu~
