Chapter 369: Spirit Of A Gokudo Path Inheritor

“We were ambushed.” The little monk knew that the situation was urgent, so he summarized. “We were attacked by a group of foreigners whom we had never met before. They were not the foreign forces who followed the Baoze employees into the Great Deities Palace.”

Not the same group of people…? Li Xianyu raised his eyebrows. “Did Li Peiyun participate?”

The little monk was shocked and shook his head. “I didn’t see Li Peiyun.”

That differed from what Li Xianyu thought. He frowned and pressed, “Describe them in detail.”

“There were about forty or fifty of them in total, out of which six of them were very powerful, each of them being a top S-level. There were more than ten ordinary S-level. It seemed like they were targeting us, as they did not hesitate in killing us.” At this point, the young monks of Lianghua Temple were both confused and angry.

The two sides met in the wasteland. When the foreign forces approached them, they directly launched attacks, which caught them by surprise. Monks always treated people with kindness and were totally unprepared. As a result, they suffered a lot of casualties in an instant.

“What about the other forces that followed you in?” asked Li Xianyu.

“We found a bronze building, but we didn’t get anything, so the major forces all dispersed and explored for treasures on their own,” the young monk of Lianghua Temple replied.

In these times, human nature is really the same…. Li Xianyu sighed and said, “If that was all, the Taoist and Buddhist Associations won’t be so miserable as to ask me for help.”

The Taoist and Buddhist Associations were the most profound forces in the demon descendant community. Only a portion of their forces entered the Great Deities Palace, but such a large number of famous experts would not lose to those overseas forces so easily.

“In addition to those foreigners, there was also…” The young monk showed a look of fear and hatred. “There was also a scary baby, no, it is a monster.”

It was indeed those people!

“The monster was clearly the shape of a baby, but its body was like a giant, more than ten meters high. It’s full of resentment. It’s surrounded by countless resentful spirits. I’ve never seen such a huge army of spirits. It’s just like someone opened the doors of hell.”

Li Xianyu thought for a moment and asked, “Do you know its origin?”

He knew how scary that monster baby was. It was definitely no simple mob. However, Great-Grandma was not around. With his limited experience, he could not do much, but the people of the Taoist and Buddhist Associations must know more about it.

A young Taoist continued, his voice trembling, “I heard a martial uncle shouting before he died. He cried, ‘The Holy Infant!'”

Holy Infant? Holy Infant! What the hell? Could it be that thing that Wang Lao’er was talking about?

On the birthday of Wang Lao’er’s wife, he had just come back from a business trip to Thailand. He said that there was an interesting story that happened there. A certain evil organization in Thailand secretly created the Holy Infant. The cultists especially aimed at foreign tourists who came to Thailand and secretly tricked them. Their spirits were then extracted to feed the Holy Infant. This was almost traceless and countless people died, with the hospitals declaring them as merely dying from cardiac arrest.

Considering the nature of the wrathful spirit, this monster baby should be the same as that Holy Infant. But didn’t Wang Lao’er say that he had assaulted the base camp of the evil cult and killed the Holy Infant?

“The older generation stayed to deal with the overseas forces and the Holy Infant, and helped us escape to the rescuers.” When the young monk finished speaking, he suddenly found that the spirit of war was not around the heir of Li’s family, and his joy suddenly disappeared.

“Oh, I have accidentally parted with Great-Grandma,” Li Xianyu said.

The group of monks’ expression turned black

“I also lost the other Baoze’s gods,” Li Xianyu added in.

They were silent.

“But I’ll save those people, even if I’m the only one.” Li Xianyu said, “Tell me the location.”

“It’s too dangerous.” Some of the monks from Lianghua Temple shook their heads.

“Don’t waste time. Hurry up. If you go late, your martial uncle will die.” Li Xianyu frowned.

Ah, how lovely he looks when frowning… At this moment, this group of monks who were supposed to be clean and not get close to women… and men, had their hearts pounding. It was as though something had struck their weakest point in their hearts.

Subconsciously, the young monk pointed to the back and said softly, “If you walk in that direction, you will meet him.”

Li Xianyu nodded. Riding on Cui Hua, he dashed towards the direction where they pointed to.

In the distance, looking at his silhouette, the young monks of Lianghua Temple looked down and stared, as if they were thinking about life.

“It’s strange that at that moment, my Buddhism beliefs seemed to have wavered.”

“Martial brother, you were not alone.”

The little monks expressed their thoughts one after another.

“My heart’s been beating faster since I saw him. I don’t know why.”

“The heir of the Li family was a really charming person.”

“And he has moral character, even if there was a crisis ahead, he still did not hesitate to rush to support.”

“Yes, yes.”

It’s strange that we didn’t find Li Xianyu so likable before.

A female practitioner doubted. “Aren’t y’all exaggerating? I think he’s as annoying as ever.”

“That’s just your prejudice,” said the guys together.

The young lady looked aggrieved.

….

Cui Hua was very fast. She ran with all her strength and arrived at the scene in a mere few minutes. Before she even got close, Li Xianyu felt the chaotic and huge fluctuations of qi, as well as the gusts of ghostly wind, that carried with it the whining and crying of resentful ghosts.

From afar, he saw a giant baby about 20 meters tall, with chubby hands and feet, blackened skin, dark blood vessels, scarlet eyes, full of cruelty and resentment.

“Ah!”

A famous Buddhist practitioner was caught in the palm of his hand, screaming while turning into a corpse. A pure spirit flew out of his sea of consciousness and was swallowed by the giant baby.

Taoism and Buddhism had special magics to restrain the resentful spirits, but in front of the baby, it seemed that they had lost that invincible power.

More than 100 experts of the Taoist and Buddhist Associations were fighting with a group of foreigners. Even though they were at a numerical advantage, it was impossible for them to face off the Half-Step Gokudo Path Holy Infant. Their numbers couldn’t make up for the gap in combat power and they were losing by the minute.

Dozens of their bodies littered the ground.

Streaks of golden light representing the Buddhist powers lit up the skies as the monks dressed in white flew up towards the Holy Infant. Their robes fluttered in the winds. As the resentful spirits charged towards them, they seemed to vaporize into green smoke as they screamed and fell back.

Jie Se put his palms together and prayed, as his powers surrounded his palms. The qi from his whole body converged at his fingertips, as his fingertips seemed to radiate a light comparable to the sun.

He tapped between the brows of the Holy Infant.

This seemed to hurt it, the baby screamed. Its scream was a choral of million of voices as the resentful spirits all screamed together.

The millions of spirits shook in synchrony and the force knocked Jie Se back to the Taoist and Buddhist Associations experts. Tumbling through the air, Jie Se landed softly, but his right hand was trembling under his sleeves.

“Even the mighty Vajra finger could not significantly injure it?” a Taoist said desperately.

“It’s hurt, but it’s not grievously injured,” Jie Se commented with a dark face.

The Vajra finger was a unique skill created by the Buddha head. It specialized in fighting evil spirits. However, if the strength gap between the two sides was too large, Vajra Finger would become useless too.

“Then let’s attack it a few more times, and I don’t believe it can take it,” the Taoist said angrily.

“I don’t know if it can tank it, but I know I can’t.” Jie Se stretched out his right hand. His index and middle finger were stained black, which was a sign of invasion of the resentful spirit.

The baby was extremely poisonous. Ordinary people would die even if they were to touch it.

“Have you found that it was much more powerful than it was just now?” a Buddhist monk whispered.

“The baby can absorb the spirits to strengthen itself. The longer we fight, the worse it would be for us.”

“Let’s withdraw.”

“Can we even withdraw? Once we run and break formation, there would be even more deaths and injuries.”

“It’s better than dying and being eaten up.”

The elders of the Taoist and Buddhist Associations argued.

“Don’t argue. I will kill that woman controlling the baby,” Jie Se stated.

The people immediately stopped arguing and looked at him.

Although Jie Se was young, he was pretty senior in their hierarchy. He was the direct disciple of Buddha head and the future host of Lianghua Temple after all. When they were outside, he represented Buddha Head.

“That’s too dangerous.”

“It would be nice if the Unparalleled War Spirit was with us at this time.”

“Yes, such a troublesome monster could only be handled by the Baoze ten gods or the Unparalleled War Spirit.”

At this time, they couldn’t help but think of the “mythical characters” in the demon descendant community. As a symbol of invincibility, the Unparalleled War Spirit could face any enemy.

That was not what they thought of when they tried to fight against the Unparalleled War Spirit, Jie Se thought.

These guys were only good at infighting.

“You guys cover me, hold off the Holy Infant, I’ll take care of the woman.” Jie Se jumped out tens of meters, and the foreigners along the way were killed one after another. Their bodies were torn apart by his qi, and their limbs and blood were sent flying.

There were two sides to the Buddha. Most of the time he was filled with smiles and kindness, but when there was a need, he would turn into an invincible war god.

At the same time, more than a dozen elders left their enemies that they were fighting and dashed towards the Holy Infant without a single regard for their life. There were many magic spells, with golden Buddha lights lighting with all kinds of spells and abilities. The scene was spectacular.

Even if it was a Half-Step Gokudo Path, under the fighting and killing of so many experts, it was suppressed for a short while.

“They can’t hold off for long. I have to fight fast.” In spite of being hurt, Jie Se used the secret method to utilize the powerful Vajra finger again.

The handsome monk’s face was solemn and his fingertips were golden again, which shocked the Thai woman and screamed, “Save me, or the baby will lose control.”

Whoo! The knight’s sword came flying, as the nearest Gauss Kashub took the lead to rescue her from her dire situation.

Zing! The heavy blade smashed on Jie Se’s bald head. But all they heard was the brittle sound of iron colliding with stone. He resisted the sword with the power of Acalanātha. The golden light of his body turned dimmer. Jie Se swallowed the blood that was almost coughed up and continued dashing for a dozen meters.

“So hard!”

Gauss Kashub’s hand was injured by the reflected vibrations and he could hardly hold the sword.

The second one to come to her rescue was Faul Anderson. While running, his body expanded, and he became a big, muscular man. He stepped on the ground and jumped into Jie Se’s arms from the side.

Dong!

The golden light protecting his body was crumbling. Jie Se was knocked out by this huge force. He rolled out, bouncing like a ball, for over ten meters. He immediately got up and continues to charge towards the Thai woman regardless. He was very close to the Thai woman.

At this time, a deafening explosion occurred as the air around Jie Se exploded, tearing open the golden light of the protector, and he lost consciousness for a moment.

In the distance, Wright Green held his knee and gasped heavily. He broke the golden light of the ring color, and lost his consciousness for a short time.

That was enough to kill Jie Se tens of times.

Eva Carpe appeared behind Jie Se like a ghost. The dagger stabbed into the back of his heart, and the warm blood splashed onto her face.

Seeing this, the Thai woman sighed with relief and laughed. “My dear child, mother will send you a spirit belonging to the inheritor of a Gokudo Path master.”

Gauss Kashub and others were also relieved. Faul muttered, “When we leave the Great Deities Palace, run quickly to avoid being chased down by Buddha Head.”
