Chapter 751: Chapter 147: Mortal Demon Domain, Twin Buddha Children

Chi Guang had not expected that just by trying to lay low, someone would actually take it seriously.

“It seems this time, I can’t keep a low profile anymore…”

A chilling glint emerged in Chi Guang’s eyes, thinking of the mentor’s words about the twin Buddha Child’s demon statues, his gaze brimming with the flames of battle.

On the other side, with the upcoming battle for supremacy imminent at the Flower Travel Association,

Ye Ancestor and Green Ancestor were among those who sent messages to Li Hao, informing him that they would soon arrive in the Canglan Realm to watch the battle and support him.

Upon hearing this, Qingfeng feigned a pitiful tone, “Doesn’t anyone care to come and see me?”

“You’ve got your mentor backing you, what do you need us for? Qingfeng is all alone.”

Ye Ancestor responded gruffly.

“That’s right, why should we watch how you show off?” Green Ancestor was more direct.

Feeling helpless, Qingfeng said, “Your partiality really breaks my heart.”

“You still have the mood to nag here; I think you just can’t wait to start fighting.” Green Ancestor spoke.

Qingfeng:ʘᴗʘ

Li Hao, upon learning that Ye Ancestor and others would come, sent a message to Zhan Tan, asking her to help with the reception.

Zhan Tan told Li Hao to focus on preparing for the battle and not to be distracted by these matters.

Having previously discussed the Artistic Path with Li Hao, she already felt she might have been holding him back, and now with the conflict approaching, she too had received news that many prides of heaven had made breakthroughs under pressure just before going into battle, enhancing their strength and potentially posing a threat to Li Hao.

As the battle drew near, Emperor Canghai also approached Li Hao, Chi Guang, Su Yun, and others to ask if they needed any assistance, such as weapons or divine pills.

Su Yun mentioned she was in need of a Condensation Dao Pill, while Chi Guang and Li Hao said they did not require anything.

“If we can seize the spots to represent Canglan Realm in this battle, we will be blessed by the incense fire from the Canglan Realm. How much you will receive depends on your performance in the battle,” Emperor Canghai said.

He harbored great expectations for both Li Hao and Chi Guang, having previously placed his bets on Chi Guang for securing a place in the top ten. However, Li Hao’s impressive display had now taken him by surprise. If both could represent the Canglan Realm in battle, the Divine Dynasty of Emperor Canghai would receive not one but two shares of Dragon Energy!

This was a sacred blessing from the Heavenly Dao of Canglan Realm; the two shares of Dragon Energy could stabilize the nation of Emperor Canghai’s Dynasty and potentially give rise to monstrous talents with Saint aspects among the Imperial Family. If he were to absorb it himself, he could also use it in cultivating the Heavenly Dao as an Emperor.

Different Saints established their own systems, such as the Sword Saint, Literary Saint, and Buddhist Daoist Saints. An Emperor who aspires to become a Saint should cultivate the Imperial Dao, which requires the accumulation of Dragon Energy.

As the grand battle approached, the Three Great Sacred Lands and numerous Dynasties bustled with activity. Even those prides of heaven who had failed to qualify eagerly anticipated this top-tier battle of the Heavenly Pride in the Canglan Realm.

Days flew by, and the struggle for the spots was set to take place within the Buddhist Holy Land.

Ever since the Supreme Genius Battle emerged, the locations chosen for the Canglan Realm’s qualifying battles alternated among the Three Great Sacred Lands.

This allowed the Sacred Lands to showcase their splendor and attract heavenly prides from various Divine Dynasties. This time, it was the Buddhist Holy Land’s turn.

Li Hao, Chi Guang, and the top contenders of the Divine Dynasties were escorted to the Buddhist Holy Land along with various members of the Imperial Family.

Far from the Buddhist Holy Land, one could see a towering and majestic Holy Mountain piercing the sky, with auspiciousness enveloping the heavens and Buddha’s light shining upon all, as if the sun had descended on the Sacred Peak Top, transforming into a Treasure Bead twinkling with thousands of Buddha’s rays.

Upon setting foot within the Buddhist realm, the devout chanting of Buddha’s scriptures quietly echoed.

Contrarily to the competitors like Li Hao, others who came to watch arrived a day early, using connections to secure a front row seat.

At the foot of the Holy Mountain in the Buddhist Holy Land, there were two giant beasts resembling golden lions, radiating the aura of the Half-Saint Realm. Although they appeared as golden lions, sharp observers would recognize them as ancient Demon Kings concealing their true form.

Half-Saint Buddhist Beasts guarded the gate at the foot of the mountain, with monks greeting visitors along the pathway, all exuding an aura of Buddhist treasures.

“Is this the Buddhist Holy Land?”

“Such solemnity and reverence; it makes me unconsciously hesitant to speak loudly.”

“Look at all those Buddhist Beasts. See, isn’t that a Half-Saint Realm Buddhist Beast being used as a mount?”

People whispered among themselves.

On the Sacred Peak Top, vast and broad, representatives of various powers had gathered, numbering in the millions. Princes and princesses were commonplace, alongside direct heirs from ancient Martial Arts Families, with immense backgrounds; otherwise, it would be impossible for them to attend the battle in person—resigned to gaze upon the contest from afar through a Boundary Stone.

Apart from those with influential backgrounds, numerous heavenly prides were also present, their collective presence nearly palpable.

Yet, front and center stood the Half-Saints of the Buddhist family, revealing their majestic Dharma Aspects, towering over a hundred feet tall, supremely conspicuous among the millions of spectators on the peak.

Their mounts, too, were massive and formidable, also encompassng the existence of the Half-Saint Realm.

Among them were Green Lions, Golden Haired Behemoths, White Pigs, Peacock Kings, and more, all emitting auspiciousness. However, before their subjugation, these Buddhist Beasts were undoubtedly fierce demons inducing fear and dread.

Suspended above the Buddha Venerate Treasure Hall, the Buddhist Holy Land’s Saint, the Thousand Worlds Buddha Honor, sat in an imposing manner, his Dharma Aspect as grand as the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, towering a thousand feet high, visible clearly even to those standing on the periphery of the Holy Mountain, emanating Buddhist golden light and auspiciousness.

Thousand Worlds Buddha Honor, the master of the Buddhist order, had overcome the Three Calamities and was nearly stepping into the Supreme Saint Realm.

It was said that in his embodiment of thousands of lifetimes, he had comprehended the fundamental nature of the world—birth, aging, sickness, death, fame, fortune, as well as distinctions of right and wrong wealth and honor, having achieved the Great Detachment Mindset.

Within the Canglan Realm, the position of the Buddhist Holy Land stood paramount, and this Thousand Worlds Buddha Honor was recognized as the mightiest in the Canglan Realm.

Now, various powers and countless prides of heaven beheld this preeminent figure of the Canglan Realm, all eyes revealing admiration and subservience.
