Supreme Warrior in the City

The three Beigong War Gods were primarily focused on Mahakaya at the moment. They didn’t know what Mahakaya’s attitude towards the people of the Buddha Domain was, so they didn’t dare to make any rash decisions.

If Mahakaya didn’t want to kill these people of the Buddha Domain, and they exposed the news about the divine artifact, what would they do then? Should they disregard Mahakaya’s intentions and eliminate the Buddha Domain’s people, or let them go and risk exposing this information?

So now, they were watching Mahakaya closely. If Mahakaya summoned the divine artifact, it would indicate his resolve to slaughter all the people of the Buddha Domain, allowing them to fight without restraint.

But if Mahakaya didn’t act, they couldn’t act recklessly either, or else it would be hard to end things properly.

Of course, the Beigong War God had long since secretly crushed the Jade Pendant Su Yang had given him.

Now that they had discovered Yang Wudi, it was time for Su Yang to come and eliminate him!

The chaotic battle continued for a while, and Mahakaya’s situation became increasingly precarious. In that short period, he was hit several times by the people from the Buddha Domain and was seriously injured.

In fact, considering that Mahakaya possessed the Nine-Grade Lotus Platform, these people from the Buddha Domain shouldn’t have been able to hurt him at all.

However, every time the Nine-Grade Lotus Platform was about to emerge to protect him, Mahakaya forcibly suppressed it. Earlier attempts on their journey had already allowed them to summon and hide the divine artifact at will; at least, they could contain the divine artifact within their body when they didn’t want it to appear.

Without the help of the divine artifact, Mahakaya suffered several heavy blows and was gravely injured.

”Mahakaya, hand over the Jade Bottle immediately!” Monk Wunian, looking at the blood-covered Mahakaya, frowned and said, ”Otherwise, we’ll have no choice but to kill you and take it ourselves!”

Mahakaya clasped his hands together and endured another blow, softly saying, ”I really don’t know about any Jade Bottle and have never deceived the Buddha Domain. If you don’t believe me, then this poor monk can only prove my innocence with death!”

Monk Wunian frowned as he looked at Mahakaya’s injured state, starting to doubt in his heart. Could it be that this wasn’t actually Mahakaya’s doing?

”Prove your innocence with death? Hmph, if you’re really willing to die, then just end your own life!” a Buddha Disciple behind him loudly declared. ”We all saw it with our own eyes. You’re still trying to argue? Fine, you say you want to prove your innocence with death, then do it. If you die, we’ll believe what you say!”

Mahakaya lightly sighed and said nothing more.

Monk Wunian dissatisfiedly glanced at the Buddha Disciple and said solemnly, ”Mahakaya, you say you don’t know what’s going on, so how do you explain that we all saw it was you who took the Jade Bottle? Do you mean to say someone impersonated you?”

”Perhaps that’s possible!” Mahakaya replied. ”If it wasn’t me, then someone must have been impersonating me to deceive all of you!”

”Heh...” The Buddha Disciple sneered, ”Impersonating you? Do you think that’s possible? Even if someone could imitate your appearance, what about your aura? Can anyone outside the Buddha Domain replicate our aura? To impersonate you, they’d have to be from the Buddha Domain themselves. Yet, where in the Feather Spirit Palace are there any Buddha Domain people left?”

Hearing this, Monk Wunian’s brow furrowed again. Indeed, as the Buddha Disciple had pointed out, the aura of the Buddha Domain was entirely different from other worlds’.

Not far away, Yang Wudi chuckled silently to himself.

The Illusionary Element Pill, capable of altering a person’s power aura, was a highly treasured item of the Demon Clan. Even with his status in the Demon Clan, it took Yang Wudi over a century to obtain just one, highlighting its preciousness. Not many in other worlds were even aware of its existence.

Yang Wudi had kept the Illusionary Element Pill without using it for a long time. This time, it had finally come in handy, not only drawing the Buddha Domain against the Human Clan but also acquiring the Divine Artifact Breath. In sum, the usage of this Illusionary Element Pill had been incredibly worthwhile!

Mahakaya lowered his head, silent, unable to figure out what was happening. He did suspect Yang Wudi at one point, but recalling the Buddha Domain’s aura, he eventually dismissed this suspicion. After all, he couldn’t fathom that Yang Wudi could mimic the Buddha Domain’s aura!

By this point, Mahakaya indeed couldn’t explain the situation, leading the Buddha Domain to firmly believe it was his doing, causing the chaos to intensify.

The three Beigong War Gods had been watching Mahakaya. Seeing his injuries worsening, their expressions grew increasingly grim.

Continuing like this, Mahakaya was bound to meet his end here. But he hadn’t summoned the divine artifact, indicating he didn’t want to kill all the Buddha Domain people, putting the three Beigong War Gods in a very passive position.

”Master, you should run first!” Qi Zhishan sent a message, ”We’ll cover your retreat!”

Mahakaya looked at Qi Zhishan, slowly shook his head, and said nothing.

Qi Zhishan could only sigh in frustration at Mahakaya’s stubborn nature. It seemed this time, he truly intended to prove his innocence with death!

The Beigong War God furrowed his brow tightly, the divine artifact inside him eager to move. He watched Mahakaya’s situation, ready to summon the Pangu Banner to save him at any moment of danger.

Prepared to slaughter all the Buddha Domain people if it came down to it!

Meanwhile, Yang Wudi was full of delight, feeling quite proud of his scheme. This time, he was finally going to give the Human Clan a hard blow.

From the looks of it, it wouldn’t be long before Mahakaya was slain by the Buddha Domain people. Then, aligned with him, they could eliminate the three Beigong War Gods, weakening the Human Clan’s strength by half.

Afterward, when locating Su Yang’s group, he just needed to continue allying with the Buddha Domain people to wipe them out, which would be no problem at all.

By then, after exterminating the entire Human Clan and leaving the Feather Spirit Palace with the Divine Artifact Breath, he’d be the greatest beneficiary of this Feather Spirit Palace operation.

While Yang Wudi continuously fantasized about the future, Mahakaya ultimately couldn’t hold on any longer. He received a heavy blow from the Buddha Domain, coughed up blood, and sat cross-legged on the ground, unable to even stand.

The faces of the three Beigong War Gods changed dramatically; Mahakaya was gravely injured with no strength to defend himself. The Buddha Disciple launched a full-strength attack with the intent to completely kill Mahakaya!

The Beigong War God took a deep breath, channeled power into the Pangu Banner within, preparing to summon it!
