Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 1675 - 1676: Buddha’s Body, Demon’s Heart

"Is this the Pure Land Buddha Venerable, the Blood Evil Demon Emperor?"

Chu Fengmian’s gaze fell on the elder seated upon the throne in the great hall.

He had expected that the Blood Evil Demon Emperor, having fallen into the Buddhist path, should resemble a demon god who had killed countless people, exuding a fearsome and overwhelming presence.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor, named for his blood-evilness, had taken countless lives, far more than tens of millions.

Yet the elder seated on the throne appeared so kind and benevolent that even Chu Fengmian found it hard to believe this was the Blood Evil Demon Emperor.

But the terrifying demon intent emanating from the elder was enough to confirm his identity.

Buddha body, demon heart.

This was the Blood Evil Demon Emperor, the most dreadful of demon emperors within the Demon Clan.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor sat serenely on the throne, his physical body remaining immortal even after hundreds of thousands of years.

His face appeared as if alive, merely asleep upon the throne.

Immortal body.

The passing of years hadn’t brought any changes to the Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s body.

"An immortal true body, the Blood Evil Demon Emperor has also cultivated an immortal true body, similar to that Bronze Heavenly Demon."

Chu Fengmian, having once seen the Bronze Heavenly Demon, wasn’t overly surprised by this scene.

However, the power within the Blood Evil Demon Emperor was even more terrifying than that of the Bronze Heavenly Demon, with demon intent surging from him, making him seem almost alive.

A mere slight movement would awaken him.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor was once one of the most formidable demon emperors in the Demon Clan, his might nearly rivaling the Ten Directions Heavenly Demon.

And unlike the ancient Ten Directions Heavenly Demon, the Blood Evil Demon Emperor wasn’t so distant from the current era, having been from the Ancient Era, only hundreds of thousands of years past.

The Bronze Heavenly Demon was a figure that had fallen in Ancient Times, so when Chu Fengmian saw the Bronze Heavenly Demon, he felt little remaining power emanating from it.

But the remains of the Blood Evil Demon Emperor were wholly different; the power contained within them was enough that if he awoke, he could sweep through all present.

No one dared to covet him, despite the remains being an incredibly precious treasure.

Chu Fengmian glanced across the throne hall; the figure of the Young Emperor suddenly appeared.

However, even the Young Emperor dared not approach the Blood Evil Demon Emperor atop the throne.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor, although dead for hundreds of thousands of years, with only bones remaining, still contained overwhelming, formidable power.

Anyone attempting to seize them first would meet a dead-end.

The Young Emperor dared not act rashly and awaited not far from the throne within the grand hall.

Although the Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s power was formidable, it was slowly waning.

Upon the Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s chest was a broken sword, piercing into his chest.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s body had remained uncorrupted for hundreds of thousands of years, almost achieving the immortal true body.

Even now, Chu Fengmian’s body reached only the semi-immortal stage, yet was so strong.

Let alone a true immortal body.

Legends say that the true immortal body is an invincible physical form, impervious to any power.

But now this broken sword had shattered the Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s immortal body, piercing into his chest and his heart.

Taichu Sword!

The sword had broken at the hilt, and the sword edge remained lodged within the Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s chest.

This was indeed the Taichu Sword Edge, suppressing the Blood Evil Demon Emperor, the form of Elder Fan.

Seeing the terrifying power emanating from the Blood Evil Demon Emperor now, Chu Fengmian felt that if not for the Taichu Sword Edge suppressing him...

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor might suddenly revive.

Chu Fengmian, looking at the Blood Evil Demon Emperor seated on the throne, couldn’t help but think this thought.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor had fallen for hundreds of thousands of years; resurrection was mere jest, yet this idea emerged in Chu Fengmian’s mind.

The Blood Evil Demon Emperor did not look like a corpse, merely a suppressed, slumbering demon emperor.

"Another hour’s time, and the Blood Evil Demon Emperor’s power will be at its weakest point due to the suppression," Elder Fan quietly reminded.

"Hmm,"

Chu Fengmian nodded, looking once more into the grand hall.

Besides the Young Emperor, several formidable Demon Clansmen were at his side.

The strength of these Demon Clansmen practically surpassed the Scorpion Lion King, on par with strong figures like Long Moluo.

These Demon Clansmen stood behind the Young Emperor, waiting for his command.

"Among these Demon Clansmen..."

As Chu Fengmian observed, he suddenly sensed a strange feeling, scrutinizing more closely.

Amidst these Demon Clansmen, there seemed to be two whose appearances drew Chu Fengmian’s sudden attention.

"These two are not Demon Clansmen!"

In Chu Fengmian’s mind, a familiar sensation suddenly surfaced; he had never seen these two Demon Clansmen before.

Yet from them emanated a sense of familiarity, suggesting past encounters.

Chu Fengmian’s mind conjured two figures. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"It’s them?"

Chu Fengmian scrutinized further; these two Demon Clansmen were none other than the impostors, the Reincarnation Monk and Little Yao Wang Han Ye.

Previously, Chu Fengmian had clashed with the Reincarnation Monk and Little Yao Wang Han Ye; he remembered their every movement, and upon seeing these two Demon Clansmen, he instantly recalled.

Both the Reincarnation Monk and Little Yao Wang Han Ye, like Chu Fengmian, slain two Demon Clansmen and, disguised as them, infiltrated the Pure Land Buddha Temple.

This discovery surprised Chu Fengmian; these Demon Clansmen’s strengths were comparable to Long Moluo, yet they managed such a feat.

Especially Little Yao Wang Han Ye, previously devoured of ninety percent of his essence blood by Chu Fengmian, weaker than even a common Nine Tribulations Ancient Emperor.

Yet now, Little Yao Wang Han Ye seemed restored; the Reincarnation Monk must have found a way to aid in his recovery.

The Reincarnation Monk, from the Buddhist tradition, is the most mysterious and esteemed disciple of the Reincarnation Sect, holding profound knowledge of this hidden realm’s countless secrets and treasures.
