I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 224: Chapter 195: Repentance Brings Salvation (Revised)_2

With a turn, Ruosheng took off his red robe and carefully folded it, placing it under the Bodhi Tree.

Outside the monastery, the battlefield was aflame, smoke billowed, and beneath the thunderous cries of battle, blood flowed like a river.

Inside the monastery, Ruosheng’s heart was as calm as still water. Clad in clean white clothes, he sat cross-legged under the tree, fingering the Buddha beads, reciting the Prajna Sutra like his master.

The night wind blew gently, shedding Bodhi leaves that fell atop Ruosheng’s head.

He shivered all over, as if in a trance seeing the charming monk smiling before him, placing a palm on his head.

”Since you’ve become a monk, you will be my disciple from now on, Ruosheng.”

”Master...”

The Buddha beads in his hand snapped apart, and Ruosheng was in tears.

The night wind picked up speed, as Ruosheng raised his head to hold back his tears, his body merging back into the yellow sand, blown towards the sunless battlefield.

Leaving only the Buddha beads scattered under the Bodhi Tree, and the red ’Kasaya’.

Outside the ruins of Prajna Temple, Martial Sect disciples swarmed out from all sides like locusts, their momentum unstoppable.

Five Dragon Ships provided by the Commerce Alliance lined up in the darkness, the talismanic bombs on the ships coalescing spiritual light onto the Buddhist Sect’s Great Array Barrier, bombarding it madly.

Thunder rolled, and the firelight burned the night bright red, shaking the Buddhist Sect’s Great Array precariously.

Despite the furious onslaught of spells by the Martial Sect disciples, the Buddhist Sect disciples held their ground, refusing to come out.

”Get out of my way!”

Sha Tongtian stepped through the air from one of the Dragon Ships, bringing with him a suffocatingly strong aura, slashing a sword towards the Great Array Barrier.

Boom!

A thick bolt of lightning tore through the sky, striking the Great Array, a dazzling light burst, and the entire Array began collapsing from the center.

”Everyone, kill for me!!”

”Kill!”

”Kill!”

”Kill!”

Foundation Establishment Disciples of Baji Sect roared, waving giant axes and heavy hammers, leading thousands of Qi Cultivation Disciples to flood into the Buddhist Sect encampment.

The Buddhist Sect disciples were forced to engage, the sides clashing, blood staining the yellow sand.

Conflict was fierce, with the Buddhist Sect clearly weaker, quickly having their defense lines breached.

Seeing this, five Golden Core Zen Masters of the Buddhist Sect roared and attacked, launching deadly strikes straight to the sky and pummeling the Dragon Boat.

A giant fist shadow smashed out from the Dragon Boat, catching two Golden Core Zen Masters off guard, knocking them back in flight.

”Wu Lie of Baji Sect is here, who dares to act rashly!”

Elder Wu Lie of Baji Sect, leading five Golden Core Masters, lined up in front of the Dragon Boat, exuding a powerful aura.

A great battle was imminent.

At this moment, only the hidden Nascent Soul Ancestors remained, with the entire Quicksand Domain sects gathered here for this battle.

Just like years ago, when they joined forces, obliterating Prajna Temple with thunderous measures.

The fierce battle was in full swing, smoke filled the air, Buddhist Sect retreating at every step, while the Martial Sect also suffered significant casualties.

Roar!!

The earth shook, beastly roars pierced the heavens.

At the battlefield’s center, the ground suddenly exploded open, a massive Sand Worm King emerged skyward, savagely swallowing dozens of cultivators in one gulp.

”Ah!!!”

Amid terrified screams, the Sand Worm King spewed venom, reducing large swathes of cultivators to rotten blood pools at the battlefield’s center.

A thick Desert Snake of the Seventh Level rapidly slithered up from underground, collapsing Martial Sect cultivators’ rear line, its tail smashing down, instantly killing large numbers of Qi Cultivation Cultivators.

Sand Worms, Earth Scorpions, Six-Winged Centipedes, Ghost-Faced Spiders... Nearly every demon beast visible in the Quicksand Domain emerged from the underground at that moment, densely packed, countless.

Among them were dozens to hundreds of Seventh-Level Demon Beasts, and Sixth-Level Demon Beasts close to Golden Core Stage lurking beneath the yellow sand, ready to strike.

The entire battlefield descended into instantaneous chaos!

Screams never ceased, with both sides falling prey to the demon beasts.

Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, with their pure and spiritual aura, were irresistibly attractive to demon beasts.

Demon beasts, keener than humans, easily sensed the faint spiritual aura, devouring such objects could transform them, allowing them to break through to a higher level.

At this moment, Ruosheng was omnipresent, transforming himself into specks of sand over the No Return Sea, attracting demon beasts, feeling the scorching blood spray upon his ’body’, reveling in that penetrating pleasure.

The Golden Core Cultivators in the melee pulled away, executing demon beasts, but the demon beasts charged in waves, gathered like tides, making it difficult to reverse the situation.

”Retreat, everyone retreat now!”

Elder Wu Lie of Baji Sect ordered from above, punching and smashing the Ghost-Faced Spider King beneath him.

Martial Sect cultivators and Buddhist Sect monks were utterly defeated, thrown into chaos.

Just as both sides prepared to withdraw, the earth’s shaking intensified suddenly.

The sky grew dark, sand and stones flew, furious winds roared, whipping up massive yellow sand waves from all directions.

Wu Lie stood high above, watching in horror as layers of yellow sand rose higher, forming a magnificent large Yellow Sand Golden Lotus, rapidly closing in with its mighty force.

A black shadow spread across the sky with thunderous pressure overhead. Wu Lie looked up to see the even larger yellow sand petals enveloping the Dragon Ship, taking everyone with it.

The innermost petals sealed over a hundred cultivators, and with a muffled sound of blood and flesh being crushed, a large amount of startling red blood gushed from the petals’ center.

”Ah ah ah!!!”

Low-Level Cultivators were scared soul-less, as if facing a natural disaster, powerless to resist, left with only despair.

The urgency of life and death, and the terror swelled within Wu Lie and others’ hearts, hastening to send Flying Sword messages for support from their Nascent Soul Ancestors, dashing towards the narrowing gaps between yellow sand petals.

All exhausted their strength, yet every gap they escaped only met with greater yellow sand petals closing in, endless, never reaching the end.

Roar!!

A terrifying, supreme pressure erupted from the ground, causing the aura of Golden Core Cultivators to disarray, plummeting from the sky.

Corpses littered the ground, the ravaged earth split into three large pits, from which Nascent Soul Stage demon beasts slowly emerged.

Hidden within the yellow sand, Ruosheng felt a greedy gaze locking onto him. He opened his heart, allowing events to unfold as they would.

”Come, swallow me along with all this chaos and wickedness, and completely bury everything!”

The sky grew dark, layers of petals nearing complete closure, the last starlight about to vanish.

”Amitabha Buddha, the sea of bitterness is endless, turn back and find the shore!”

A Buddhist chant rang out, a figure suddenly appeared above the No Return Sea.

That imposing Yellow Sand Golden Lotus standing on the earth began unfolding, layer by layer.
