Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1798: Chapter 1797: Both Mercy and Slaughter!

After Roma Vulcan struck again, sending the Zeus Family Clan Leader’s head flying, he forced Ye Tianchen, and in an extremely direct way: if Ye Tianchen refused to help him, he too would end up with body and soul annihilated.

At this moment, the Zeus Family Clan Leader was of course furious and aggrieved. He had never imagined he would actually be ambushed and even have his head cut off. In the record of his battles, this was something that had never happened—a humiliation beyond all measure!

Who would have thought, when the Zeus Family Clan Leader made a move, swinging the half-section Half-Saint Treasure ”Thunder” in his hand and blasting out a peerlessly powerful force, that under the condition their Cultivation Realms had always been roughly the same, Roma Vulcan would so easily block the Divine Power of this Half-Saint Thunder Treasure with a single ray of Buddha Light. It shocked everyone present, and even Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but furrow his brows!

Just how deeply had Roma Vulcan hidden himself? Just how terrifying was his strength? Only now did everyone feel a complete overturning of their perception. This old monk who looked brimming with compassion, who couldn’t even bear to kill an ant, had actually become this ruthless—why on earth?

”Compassion? In this world, aside from cruelty, where does compassion come from? Only by making yourself stronger and stronger can compassion become something you wield as you please. When you yourself are just an ant beneath this heaven and earth, what compassion is there to talk about!” Roma Vulcan laughed a bit self-mockingly and said loudly.

”So all these years, you’ve been deceiving us, numbing us, all just to wait for today, is that it?” The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm of China also spoke up and asked.

”I’m not the same as you. I know very clearly what path I should walk, and I’ve never stopped striving toward it!” Roma Vulcan said earnestly.

”You never gave up exploring the mysteries of this Hidden World. You’ve always wanted to obtain that Treasure, and you’ve persisted far longer than we have!” The Pharaoh of Egypt said with a frown.

Roma Vulcan glanced at everyone present and spoke with utter calm: ”Back then, the seven of us entered here together and were all suppressed by the special Magic Laws of this Hidden World, nearly ending up body and soul annihilated. Only the Zeus Family Clan Leader, with a Half-Saint Treasure in hand, could run rampant. However, he was restricted by his Cultivation Realm and could not unleash the strongest power of the Half-Saint Treasure, nor could he possibly fully explore the mysteries of this Hidden World, nor obtain the Treasure hidden within it. I never gave up. I believe that if I obtain this Treasure, it will open a new step on the path of Martial Arts!”

”So that’s how it is. Then, since we can no longer sense the aura of the Indian Solomon Pusuo Sect Leader and the Vatican Pope, they were killed by you, weren’t they?” The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm of China thought for a moment and asked.

”That’s right, they were indeed killed by me, because I thought of an effective method. Our individual Magic Laws and the Magic Laws of this Hidden World have, after so many years, been linked together. As long as one of us dies, the Magic Laws of this Hidden World will fluctuate. At that moment, it becomes the best opportunity to explore the mysteries of this Hidden World!” Roma Vulcan spoke without the slightest concealment, as if everything was in the palm of his hand and he wasn’t afraid of them knowing his plan at all.

”Bald donkey, are you really that confident?” The Zeus Family Clan Leader asked with marked disdain.

”If I didn’t have such confidence, why would I make my move at this time? I’ve waited for this day for a very long time!” Roma Vulcan was still incomparably composed as he spoke.

”Kill you, you old bald donkey!” The Zeus Family Clan Leader was enraged. He was the first one present to be ambushed by Roma Vulcan, having his head chopped off in a single instant.

You had to know, the seven of them were the strongest in the Mortal World and had always been so. None of them was much stronger than the others; their strength was relatively balanced. Yet this time, Roma Vulcan suddenly struck, turning from a compassion-filled old monk into a bloodthirsty Great Demon. Even so, given the arrogance of the Zeus Family Clan Leader and the others, they would not cower. But with Roma Vulcan’s first move he beheaded him, and with the second he blocked the half-section Half-Saint Treasure he relied on so heavily. This made the Zeus Family Clan Leader feel a naked slap in the face, a humiliation he almost couldn’t endure!

Striking again, the Zeus Family Clan Leader swung the half-section ”Thunder” Treasure in his hand, cleaving out a surge of terrifying power, vowing to avenge himself and defeat Roma Vulcan.

Bang!

This time, when the Thunder Treasure in the Zeus Family Clan Leader’s hand smashed into the Buddha Light that Roma Vulcan had vibrated out, there was actually a faint sign of shattering that Buddha Light. This couldn’t help but make the Zeus Family Clan Leader curl his lips in a mocking smile and regain some confidence.

”Hmph, I thought you’d been hiding so deep, that you’d hidden such immense strength. Turns out you’re only so-so!” The Zeus Family Clan Leader snorted coldly as he looked at Roma Vulcan and said.

Roma Vulcan shook his head, still completely calm. That kind of confidence didn’t look like an act; it was as if he truly had absolute faith. His hands slowly came together in a Buddhist seal, and he began to chant under his breath. A torrent of Buddhist Scriptures surged out, and in an instant they all transformed into symbols that resounded across the sky, burning and chanting above, making one’s Soul feel shaken, like thunder roaring in the ears. Even Ye Tianchen was deeply shocked and couldn’t help frowning as he said:

”The Great Compassionate Mantra?”

”Looks like I judged it right. When you displayed that Buddhist Holy Skill, I already felt you’d obtained some Buddhist Divine Power. If it can be used by me, all the better. If not, you’ll still be annihilated, body and soul!” Roma Vulcan heard Ye Tianchen’s startled voice, glanced at Ye Tianchen, and said.

”It only removes what is not good, what is not utterly sincere”;

”Those who harbor even a small doubt will never see their wishes fulfilled”;

”Only one thing is excluded: those who give rise to doubt regarding the mantra—then even minor sins and light karma cannot be eradicated, let alone heavy sins”...

Great compassion is; equality is; non‑action is; freedom from defilement is; contemplation of emptiness is; Respectful Heart is; humility is; freedom from distraction is; No-Grasping Heart is; unsurpassed Bodhi‑mind is. You should know that such minds are precisely the marks of Dharani; you must rely on this to carry out your Cultivation.

A string of Buddhist Scriptures were chanted in a burning torrent, and in just a moment, it seemed as though this entire Hidden World was filled with all kinds of monks, all shrouded in the sacred power of the Buddhist Sect. It astonished everyone. This power was simply too immense. No one had expected Roma Vulcan to have hidden such terrifying strength. His Cultivation Realm was not at all what everyone had seen—merely Mid-stage Martial Saint!

”The Great Compassionate Mantra was originally meant to ferry people with a heart of compassion, yet you use it for slaughter. Can you really do that?” The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm of China couldn’t help but speak.

”In this world there is no such thing as a purely compassionate method. The Emperors of the Buddhist Sect created scripture after scripture that appears to ferry people across. The masses only know these Buddhist Scriptures can save the world, yet they don’t know in what kind of environment, with what kind of state of mind, the Buddhist Great Emperors forged these Scriptures. Every so‑called compassionate art of the Buddhist Sect is also a great killing art!” Roma Vulcan’s hands kept changing mudras, as if he had the entire Hidden World in his grasp. His power was terrifying.

The Clan Leader of the Zeus Family of Greece was shocked. He hadn’t expected that after he struck with full force, just when he was about to shatter Roma Vulcan’s Buddha Light, the latter would instead become even more formidable, and the entire Hidden World would seem to be burning with Buddha sound!

”Buddha’s Manifestation!” Roma Vulcan softly uttered these four words.

At once, throughout heaven and earth in this Hidden World, amidst the unceasingly chanted Buddha sound, countless vaguely visible Buddha statues appeared, all seated cross‑legged. These statues were not especially tall, nor particularly ferocious, and they lacked that overbearing aura of dominance. Yet they sat cross‑legged in the air, continuously chanting out the Buddha sound just like Roma Vulcan. It was a sense of power—as if in all heaven and earth, only the power of this Buddha sound remained, while the strength of everyone else was wiped clean and rendered useless. All dominion belonged to the Buddha sound.

”What a terrifying power of the Buddhist Sect. I didn’t expect this bald donkey’s Buddhist cultivation to be this profound!” The Pharaoh of Egypt couldn’t help but say in admiration.

”Looks like we’re the ones who were truly calculated against. Roma Vulcan wants to use our fresh blood as the stepping stones to his success!” The Great Elder of the Kunlun Secret Realm of China said with a frown.

”Ah!”

With a roar, the Clan Leader of the Zeus Family of Greece felt immense pressure, because all around him countless Buddha statues appeared. Those Buddha sounds seemed to seep in everywhere, continually circulating, as if penetrating his body, as if entering his Divine Thought. It was utterly terrifying, making him feel an urge to abandon resistance and submit. If he were to go with the flow, he would definitely be controlled by Roma Vulcan—that would be truly becoming meat on someone else’s chopping block!

”I don’t care if you’re Buddha or ghost, I’ll kill you all the same!” The Clan Leader of the Zeus Family of Greece roared madly. The Half-Saint Thunder Treasure suspended above his head Shock Killed forth an incomparably powerful force, and the Clan Leader of the Zeus Family condensed a drop of his Lifeblood and infused it into it, vowing to shatter Roma Vulcan’s Buddha Sound Net. Because at this moment, he was already heavily encircled and had a feeling of having nowhere to run!

Seeing the Clan Leader of the Zeus Family of Greece unleash Divine Power like a meteor, Roma Vulcan furrowed his brows, yet his expression remained calm. He pressed his palms together and loudly chanted the Buddha’s name:
