Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 975 - 973: A Dead End! [Fifth Update]

Above the Heavenly Ladder.

One after another, powerful beings fixed their gazes unabatedly on the trio entangled in battle.

Within the Holy Land.

Everyone had ceased their fighting, looking up collectively, and from afar watched the collision above Spirit Mountain constantly emitting terrifying Destructive Energy. Although they couldn’t see the specifics of the battle, merely the energy that diffused hundreds of kilometers was enough to transform into a destructive storm.

Ruthlessly wrecking city after city, uprooting each and every towering structure.

They could all imagine just how terrifying this battle was!

Gulp!

Prajna Supreme swallowed hard, eyes blazing with passion: "I never expected the Shaolin Buddha King’s strength to be so fearsome. With his current combat power, I’m afraid no one could be his match unless a Holy Venerable intervenes, right?"

"Of course, could our Shaolin Buddha King be weak?" Veda Supreme chuckled with a he-he.

Since submitting to Xiao Yi.

Leveraging his once good relationship with Supreme Shakya, Veda Supreme gained Xiao Yi’s trust and had become the foremost among the four great elders of Shaolin.

Even Prajna Supreme, who was stronger, showed a hint of wariness when facing him.

After all.

Among the four, it was Veda Supreme who had the closest relationship with Xiao Yi.

Qianye Supreme looked towards the several Supreme Venerables who were previously locked in contention with himself and spoke indifferently, "Are you still fighting for that vengeful Buddha Mother? My Lord Buddha King will soon invade Spirit Mountain and take over the Holy Land. I advise you to surrender willingly!"

"Hmph, we do not deny that Xiao Yi is indeed formidable, but he’s still somewhat lacking if he wishes to contend with the Buddha Mother..." someone retorted.

"Lacking?"

Bodhi Supreme gravely said, "Do you know how many years our Lord Buddha King has been cultivating?"

"Eh?"

The crowd was taken aback.

With unmasked pride, Bodhi Supreme knew from Huang Baitao and Huang Tianfang that Xiao Yi had been cultivating for less than ten years. In just a short decade, he had risen from having no cultivation at all to overwhelmingly strong, shoulder to shoulder with a Holy Venerable.

What if he had another ten years?

A hundred years?

Even a thousand years?

How strong would Xiao Yi become?

No one could imagine that!

Hiss!

The crowd involuntarily gasped, their eyes filled with shock.

Ten years?

To them, it was nothing but the blink of an eye; a hundred years in seclusion passed swiftly. Xiao Yi achieved such terrifying power in just ten years?

At that moment.

These strong beings, once firmly on the side of the Buddha Mother, showed hesitation.

Veda Supreme and the other three exchanged looks, seeing the joy in each other’s eyes, seizing the moment to persuade the crowd to yield. However, all of this wasn’t as significant to Xiao Yi because at this moment, he was growing increasingly vigorous in battle.

His black war robes had long since been destroyed, revealing a robust physique.

Sculted with perfect lines.

Muscles brimming with power.

And the flush of red that spread over his body under the stimulation of strong liquor, coupled with his black hair fluttering without wind, made him look like an insane War God.

With one fist, he struck Wrathful Vajra.

With one sword, he cleaved toward the Compassionate Buddha Mother Dharma Body!

Fighting two alone.

Without showing any sign of being at a disadvantage!

Instead, it was Vajra Buddha Mother and Compassionate Buddha Mother Dharma Body who, in the great battle against Xiao Yi, increasingly found it difficult. Shock filled their eyes: "What’s going on with this kid? How come he seems like a bottomless pit, showing no signs of exhaustion?"

But the two of them did not know.

Xiao Yi practices the Divine Enthronement Heaven Subduing Skill, as long as the Divine Sealing Tree remains unharmed, his strength will never be exhausted.

"Invincible King Fist!"

"Unbeatable in war, unstoppable in attack!"

"Sword Twenty-Three!"

"Infinite Sword Slaughter..."

Xiao Yi seemed to transform into myriad forms as his relentless strikes landed on the two great Dharma Bodies. For a moment, the two great Dharma Bodies were driven back step by step, the Buddha staff shattered, the willow leaves torn apart, and the bodies themselves were covered with fierce and bone-deep lacerations.

"Damn it, ever since this deity congealed, I have never suffered such humiliation!" Vajra Dharma Body roared in fury.

Even the Merciful Dharma Body struggled to maintain a kind and compassionate look, as its eyes turned chillingly cold. The White Jade Purifying Bottle in hand showed crack after crack: "The evil demon must be thrust into the eighteen layers of hell, never to find reincarnation!"

The Withering Glory Supreme’s face changed dramatically: "Not good, they’re about to use the power of heaven and earth!"

Dharma Bodies are all congealed from the power of heaven and earth.

Just like the previous Vajra Buddha Mother, which was a form congealed by the Buddha Mother using the bright power of heaven and earth.

Once the power of heaven and earth erupts,

Their combat power will increase multiple fold.

Hum!

The Vajra Dharma Body burst into flames, as it was a Dharma Body congealed from the fiery power of heaven and earth. Flaming dragons surged across its body, opening up vicious cracks. Within each crack, flames erupted.

Transforming into a flaming giant.

With every step on the heavenly ladder, it seemed to melt away, the sky above boiling as if aflame.

Beside it, the Compassionate Buddha Mother Dharma Body’s White Jade Purifying Bottle unleashed streams of clear water, winding around like a water dragon, turning its physique entirely into a composition of refreshing springs. This was a Dharma Body congealed from the aquatic power of heaven and earth, water that nourishes all life while also holding the potential to obliterate it.

Fire and water, inherently incompatible.

The appearance of the two Dharma Bodies immersed the whole realm in the clash of fire and water.

"Fiery Blaze Scorches the Heavens!"

The Vajra Dharma Body erupted with flames, transforming into a torrential river of raging magma.

The Merciful Dharma Body, draped in azure waters, manifested waves that spanned across the heavenly ladder. Endless fierce water dragons surged from beneath the waters, each vividly lifelike, with gaping maws ready to tear Xiao Yi into shreds.

Xiao Yi’s attacks fell into the flame and were promptly swallowed by the fire.

Shattering the water dragons.

Yet the clear springs that covered the entire heavenly ladder allowed their forms to coalesce once again.

Fire and water are formless.

How can they be extinguished?

"Xiao Yi, it’s impossible for you to defeat us, just accept your death graciously!" The voices of the two Dharma Bodies resonated between heaven and earth at the same time, grating harshly on the ears.

Xiao Yi’s every attack was neutralized.

It seemed...

That he had no chance of winning this battle!

Withering Glory Supreme closed his eyes in despair: "All hope is lost..."

A crowd of Buddha Supremes rejoiced wildly: "As expected of the Buddha Mother, just two of her Dharma Bodies are enough to drive Xiao Yi to a corner!"

"But..."

Some were also amazed by Xiao Yi’s strength, "For Xiao Yi to reach the peak of Spirit Mountain within the realm of Supreme Venerable and ultimately only be subdued by the Buddha Mother’s two great Dharma Bodies - this is already a miracle!"

"Among the sanctified, Xiao Yi should be considered the strongest!"

The crowd burst into discussion.

Even the two Dharma Bodies, transformed into fire and water upon the heavenly ladder, responded in unison: "Xiao Yi, you’re the first to force us to reveal our strongest state below the rank of Sanctified. Below the Sanctified, we acknowledge you as the strongest!"

At the peak of Spirit Mountain.

The Buddha Mother’s face was expressionless: "Even if he is the strongest beneath the Sanctified, so what? All beneath the Sanctified level are mere ants; defying the Sanctified is a road to death!"

"A road to death?"

Surrounded by the Fire and Water Dharma Bodies, Xiao Yi suddenly looked up, revealing a dazzling smile, "That remains to be seen!"
