Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 1250 - 227: Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva... Is Right Here

The past was about family legacy, now it's about temple legacy.

The ceiling of the past was clear, but now the upper limits and power of the Yin God are obviously higher.

The changes are significant, but if one were to look down from the peak of this niche, every change is aimed at cutting off intermediates and enhancing one's vertical management abilities.

Li Zhiyuan now can't help but wonder, is the "Ksitigarbha Temple" on this plaque real or fake?

If this place is real, it would mean that the Yin God legacy system of the Eight Generals and the official were not created late in history but was once interrupted and corrected historically.

Then who washed the cards?

"You... deserve to die!"

A muffled voice echoed within the temple, and just this sound caused one's eardrums to ache in pain.

The Gatekeeper True Monarch's eyes were blood-red, eager to slaughter, wanting to crush all these ants that had been suppressing Him for so long!

Run Sheng and the White Crane Child awaited the youth's command; they also had trump cards to use and were confident that they could use them to regain the previously lost momentum of suppression.

However, Li Zhiyuan did not give such a command.

Being able to push the Gatekeeper True Monarch to this point made Li Zhiyuan quite satisfied; additional costs would only lead to losses.

Li Zhiyuan placed his hidden hands in front of him, interlocking his fingers and moving them upwards.

"Crack... crack... crack..."

A series of sounds of stones falling apart were heard, and all eight Yao Family divination child stone carvings fell apart, revealing the corpses hidden inside.

The preliminary preparations had already been completed by Li Zhiyuan beforehand.

With his current ability, controlling eight puppets for combat was a stretch; if he really did that, he would surely overstrain himself, bleeding from his eyes, with minimal effect.

However, if it's just basic movements, there wouldn't be much of an issue.

Li Zhiyuan now wanted to try using the "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Sutra" to guide and activate his puppets for divination.

If he could successfully initiate divination, it would prove that the legacy buried beneath the sea has an inevitable connection with today's official.

The eight puppets of the Yao Family simultaneously opened their left hands, clenched their right fists, lifted their feet, and stomped!

Everything happened swiftly, just as the Gatekeeper True Monarch used his trump card and activated his Divine Power source; the stone statues had already fallen apart and collectively initiated divination!

Instantaneously, eight portions of red flame from the Gatekeeper True Monarch flew out and fell into the eight puppets of the Yao Family.

Li Zhiyuan immediately showed a look of pain, the pressure of controlling eight people for divination was tremendous.

But in the youth's eyes, there was shock—the legacy was indeed consistent!

"No!"

The Gatekeeper True Monarch apparently did not anticipate such a bizarre situation. His descendants buried with Him were now snatching the meager porridge left in their ancestor's bowl.

This small amount rarely filled Him, always hidden and sealed, but it had now been divided so much He could no longer maintain this tall stature.

The Gatekeeper True Monarch's form began to shrink, previously embedded wing bones in His body now sliced through Him like blades.

Within breaths, the Gatekeeper True Monarch reverted to His original physique, the previously strong defensive wings now pierced through Him, embedding like a porcupine.

Li Zhiyuan immediately ceased control over the eight puppets, nosebleed starting to drip.

Of course, his partners wouldn't miss this perfect opportunity, firstly Run Sheng, who, after multiple layers of force gathering, swung his strongest shovel aside from his full-range attack.

"Slam!"

The shovel struck hard on the True Monarch's back, causing a large area to cave in, flattening Him down, making the already chaotic body utterly disarray.

The White Crane Child leaped forward, his form in mid-air exhaling onto the skill-condensed trident in his hands, a burst of True Fire adhered immediately, then pierced fiercely from above into the True Monarch's scalp!

Without the wings' protection, Yin Meng's pot of poison finally found room to wield, a string of poison jars flung out, breaking open above His head, and the toxic mist descended, wholly engulfing the True Monarch.

"Ah..."

The True Monarch raised His head in a painful wail.

At this moment, His eyes showed confusion, soon clarity, the manipulative force mesmerizing Him retreated completely; it was entirely a replay of the past on that island.

His gaze swept around, pausing on the young man: "You are not... a Bodhisattva..."

He could never understand why the youth could use such an inconceivable method, but He was sure, the youth was not the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Finally, His gaze fixed on the White Crane Child.

The child closed His eyes, the earlier thrust the most ruthless, now, He did not wish to meet the other's gaze.

The Gatekeeper True Monarch, struggling, lifted His hand which had mostly melted into His abdomen, retrieving a faintly candle-like Divine Power source, and handed it towards the White Crane Child, hoarsely chanting:

"Devils and demons... only kill, not save~"

The child opened His eyes, watching the scene, then the vertical pupil disappeared, He fled.

Lin Shuyou looked at the scene before Him, then immediately turned to Brother Xiao Yuan.

Li Zhiyuan: "Take it."

"Oh."

Lin Shuyou stepped forward, reaching out, receiving the flame from the True Monarch.

No burning sensation, yet extremely hot, Lin Shuyou clenched His teeth not to cry out, and when the flame entered Him, a red mark appeared on the back of His hand.

The Gatekeeper True Monarch's half-melted head, remaining part of the skull lost its support, hung down:

"Seems... something happened… in the temple..."

Li Zhiyuan: "Yes, or I wouldn't have come here."

"It was I... who failed... to guard the gate..."

"Thud!"

The head detached from the body, the remaining parts melted into corpse fluid.

Lin Shuyou stared at the red mark on His hand, His expression somewhat complex and somber.

Tan Wenbin approached, nudging Ah You, saying:

"Ah You, this time it was your spiritual brilliance forcing the child down.

I say, this child is really something, always sneaking away at crucial moments, this time scared by the possibly fake Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva aura, has He not heard the stories of the true and false Leiyin Temple?"

"Brother Binbin."

"Hmm, Brother Xiao Yuan?"

"I think earlier on the bridge, the child indeed sensed the aura of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

Upon hearing this, Tan Wenbin and Lin Shuyou widened their eyes immediately.

And Li Zhiyuan's next statement further caused the four present to shiver all over.

"The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva... is right here."
