Cultivators of the Buddhist League!
Wu Qi looked at those monks across the distance while frowning . He had dealt with Arhat Bao Sheng and some other monks before, and he knew that these monks only appeared when there were profits to loot . Their temples were situated in outer heavenly realms, and just like the Immortals, cultivators of the Buddhist League were heavily suppressed on Pangu Continent by Great Yu .
Now, with a great war going on between Myriad Immortal Alliance and Great Yu, the appearance of these monks gave Wu Qi a fishy feeling . Exercising his Chaotic Divine Eyes and looking at the power of faith that slowly rose into the sky, he grinned coldly .
Walking among the people who knelt on the ground, those monks kept chanting with pale golden Buddhist light radiating out of their bodies . The wounds on the common people's bodies quickly healed up when the light touched them, and their depleted energy was instantly refilled . The feeling of sadness, grief, confusion, and numbness had melted away from their hearts, leaving them with a peaceful mind . It was as if they had come to the paradise and no longer had to suffer the pain of reincarnation .
In a moment, hundreds of thousands of people dropped to their knees and kept chanting along with those monks . A great mass of pure power of faith gushed out of them and flowing into the monks' bodies, transformed into pure power of Buddha while making the halos behind their heads more condensed . Of all the Buddhist power, seventy percent remained in their bodies, while the rest turned into a golden light that was invisible to the naked eyes and quickly vanished into the sky .
Wu Qi felt a vast, mysterious, and dreadful power cover the entire sky above Pangu Continent . He glanced about with Chaotic Divine Eyes, bringing all the changes of aura within a hundred billion miles into his eyes . In fact, not just Jianfeng City, but similar beams of golden light could be seen towering into the sky in various places across the distance . Judging by their numbers, at least hundreds of thousands of Buddhist cultivators were recruiting believers across the battlefields .
He sucked in a cold breath as he faintly perceived something .
The alliance had launched an attack against Great Yu, almost as if they were betting everything on this war, and Great Yu had immediately responded with the strongest counterattack . The war soon dragged in Immortals and itinerant cultivators who were living in seclusion, and escalated into a full-scale war between all the Immortal powers on Pangu Continent and the dynasty . While the merciless flames of war drove innocent people away from their homes, the cultivators of Buddhist League had taken the opportunity to delude them and convert them into believers .
Buddhist cultivators had a very high demand for the power of faith . Regardless it was to form their relics or indestructible bodies, the power was a very important resource . During normal times, it was impossible for them to openly preach their religion on Pangu Continent . However, as the war broke out, Great Yu's attention was attracted by the alliance, and hence, nobody had noticed their nasty little tricks .
And Liu Bang, who had been busy visiting different provinces in the name of mediating the dispute, proved to be only a decoy . By assuming a manner that his sole purpose was to resolve the dispute, he had numbed the vigilance of many people, mainly those from the dynasty, and shifted their attention to him and the Heaven .
"What an excellent stratagem!" thought Wu Qi with a cold grin . The officials of Great Yu were a little bit too rigid in handling the matter, and they were too slow in responding to such a scheme . They had always been the insiders, but Wu Qi was an outsider, and he could see things much clearer than those officials .
"Damn it!" After considering for a moment, Wu Qi suddenly spread his arms and made a gesture as if he were pulling a bowstring . Green mist emerged around his hands and quickly materialized into a bow and an arrow . As that happened, he intoned a spell under his breath, and soon, a streak of blood seeped out of the corner of his eye and flowed into the arrow . Then, it twisted into a bizarre rune that looked like a big eye on the arrowhead .
The Bow of Bloody Immortal, it was called, another mystic art that came from the Directorate of Celestials . It could turn one's blood essence into a deadly poison, and was capable of tarnishing cultivators' souls and corroding monks' bodies, a very effective and powerful technique against both Immortals and Arhats . During his free time, Wu Qi had studied and mastered quite a few mystic arts that came from Directorate of Celestials . Therefore, he could easily come out with such a strong attack .
With a long cry, he released the bowstring; the arrow flew through the air silently with a three hundred feet long green smoke trailing behind . Several hundred miles away, a monk who was smiling and injecting the power of Buddha into a wounded old man's body was hit in the chest by the arrow . The air rang with a strange hiss, and the monk's face fell instantly . Before he could do anything, the green arrow exploded, turning into countless fine wisps of green smoke that engulfed him .
