My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Chapter 699: Chapter 190: The Mind is Largely Dominated by Evil (Seeking Subscriptions)

Cheng Guang looked at the scenery surrounding Huashan Sword Sect and frowned slightly.

He was quite puzzled by the current state of Huashan Sword Sect.

The surviving members of Huashan Sword Sect behaved nothing like normal people.

Their eyes were filled with deadness; there was not a trace of light.

“Is this because they witnessed the crushing defeat of Huashan Sword Sect and their dao hearts shattered, unable to come to terms with it, that they’ve become like this?”

“Or is it because…”

...

As Cheng Guang muttered to himself, his gaze fell upon the blood mist shrouding the surroundings of Huashan Sword Sect.

It was unclear if the blood mist was the result of the countless disciples’ shed blood or left behind by the person who had razed Huashan Sword Sect.

Cheng Guang had not seen this blood mist when he first approached Huashan Sword Sect from a distance.

Too far away, under the sunlight, the blood mist was hardly noticeable.

Only when you got close.

Only then could Cheng Guang make out the presence of the blood mist.

And all members of Huashan Sword Sect with deadness in their eyes were now engulfed in this blood mist.

“Granny Qianhua mentioned before that a strange power envelops the vicinity of Huashan Sword Sect, filled with evil, queer, and filthy energies.”

“Could she be referring to this blood mist?”

Cheng Guang whispered to himself and then brought the Flying Boat to a halt.

“Qing Luan, stay on the Flying Boat and keep your distance; I’ll go over by myself.”

Cheng Guang spoke to Qing Luan.

He then planned to enter Huashan Sword Sect alone to see the situation.

But upon hearing Cheng Guang’s words, Qing Luan hastily said, “Princely Heir, take me with you, I…”

Without letting Qing Luan finish, Cheng Guang interrupted, “Alright, be obedient.”

“If you come with me and we encounter any danger, I won’t be able to protect you.”

Cheng Guang spoke and patted Qing Luan’s shoulder, offering a few soothing words before sweeping down from the Flying Boat.

He flew towards the blood mist that loomed over Huashan Sword Sect.

Qing Luan stood on the deck of the Flying Boat, watching Cheng Guang disappear into the blood mist.

Feeling inexplicably forlorn and lost.

Cheng Guang’s departure this time might be fraught with danger, something even Qing Luan didn’t know.

But now, she could do nothing.

She could only wait quietly on the Flying Boat for the outcome.

……

Having left the Flying Boat, Cheng Guang swept toward the blood mist.

As he approached the mist, he already felt the pungent evil aura, which eerily felt somewhat familiar to him.

It was a sensation akin to what he had faced previously before the Buddha Head Statue.

But there was a subtle difference.

It wasn’t the exact same entity.

“Last time in the Eight-layered Devil Realm, I came across a Buddha Head Statue; it can’t be that I’ll find another one in the Four Directions Mortal World.”

“Is Buddha unable to stay concealed?”

With narrowing eyes, Cheng Guang thought this, and the likelihood seemed to increase.

Cheng Guang had heard from Gu Wushuang before, about the existence of a Buddha Head Statue at the bottom of the Abyss Demon Sea.

If the Eight-layered Devil Realm had it and the Abyss Demon Sea had it, there was no reason for the Four Directions Mortal World to lack one.

Cheng Guang guessed there was a high probability that Buddha’s presence lay within the Four Directions Mortal World too.

However.

A slumbering Buddha shouldn’t be capable of destroying Huashan Sword Sect, could it?

Did a slumbering Buddha possess such formidable power?

Cheng Guang pondered this and furrowed his brow again.

Looking around at the enveloping blood mist, he felt an increasing sense of unease because Cheng Guang gradually realized that,

since he’d entered the range of the blood mist,

the closer he approached the location of Huashan Sword Sect, the more intense the evil power contained in the blood mist became.

Just outside of the blood mist was evil aura pervasive enough to be unbearable for ordinary people.

At this moment.

Cheng Guang entered the blood mist and found himself surrounded by the oppressive evil aura.

He was without the slightest ability to resist.

And Cheng Guang had no thoughts of resisting.

All the evil that surged towards him was fully absorbed.

In only a moment, Cheng Guang’s body seemed to boil, emitting large plumes of black smoke.

At this time, Cheng Guang silently utilized Tang Sanzang’s Divine Power in his heart.

Tang Sanzang’s incantations were recited word by word from Cheng Guang’s lips.

Inside Cheng Guang’s body, faint Buddha light began to shine, though not as dense as the blood mist.

Although the Buddha light was not robust, it could melt away the evil within and around him that was coiling towards his being.

All the evil that approached or already entered his body dissipated like snow under the sun as Cheng Guang used Tang Sanzang’s Divine Power.

Gone without a trace.

As Cheng Guang walked through the blood mist, he was not affected much by the evil aura.

Instead, the surrounding evil seemed faintly purified by Cheng Guang himself.

If this scene were to be seen by others, it would undoubtedly cause many jaws to drop.

At this time.

However, no one was aware.

After Cheng Guang entered the blood mist, he didn’t draw much attention, even though he had reached the vicinity of the surviving disciples of Huashan Sword Sect.
