Cao Pi's cultivation level was already higher than his, but Cao Pi was even more despicable, directly launching a sneak attack. Therefore, it was only natural that he died and his soul was destroyed.
With Jinchi's death, the entire Guanyin Temple was plunged into a great calamity. This calamity was not like the previous ones, where there was a pre-planned script and everything was arranged. Instead, it was a true catastrophe.
------------
Chapter 40: Cao Ziheng's Battle Against Guanyin
Blood was everywhere, and as far as the eye could see, there were limbs and pieces of flesh scattered about. Broken Buddha statues lay on the ground, and countless monks could not be heard chanting a single sutra.
The raging fire was still burning, and the air was filled with the smells of blood and meat, as well as a faint fragrance.
Seeing this scene, even though Guanyin had been a Bodhisattva for many years, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable at first glance.
That's terrible, absolutely terrible.
"Amitabha, the extraterrestrial demons are indeed worthy of their demonic destiny. They act ruthlessly, leaving no survivors, and even their souls are completely annihilated. We can't find any information about them."
At this point, Guanyin formed a mudra with her right hand, chanted a mantra, and then gently made a gesture, creating a water mirror. Under the illumination of the light, time in the entire Guanyin Temple began to flow backward.
Initially, a fire engulfed the entire temple.
Next, a masked man in black, wielding a short knife, slaughtered everyone in his path. Whether old monks or young monks, whether highly skilled or poorly trained, none escaped.
"They showed no mercy when killing. Even when their opponents were just a group of mortals, they did not hesitate at all, just like Asuras. These extraterrestrial demons are indeed extraordinary."
Generally speaking, in the world of fantasy and martial arts, those with high strength tend to have a high level of prestige and disdain doing the things that ordinary bad guys do.
For example, very few people would do bad things like bullying the old and weak, or threatening the enemy's wife and children!
Not to mention directly attacking mortals. Apart from the demonic path, whether they are immortals or Buddhas, even if they are villains, they rarely attack mortals directly.
However, Cao Pi, or rather these extraterrestrial demons, had no such concerns at all. Regardless of cultivation level or identity, they killed without hesitation, truly reaching the extreme of evil!
All I can say is that in interdimensional wars, there is no innocence, only victory and defeat! This is a war between worlds, where there is no room for pity or morality.
Any means necessary to achieve victory are acceptable in the interdimensional war! Victory is everything!
Then, the scene in the water mirror continued to flash back, and Guanyin saw the scene when the masked man first made his move.
The man in black appeared suddenly and silently. Moreover, he bypassed all the restrictions, or rather, no one noticed him at all!
Upon appearing, he went straight to Elder Jinchi's rear. This indicates that this person possesses certain intelligence capabilities and has some understanding of the Guanyin Temple's strengths and weaknesses.
This alone suggests that there is likely an organization behind him, and this operation is likely just a small part of a larger event.
So, what are their goals?
Then, by observing their lip movements, Guanyin deduced what they were saying. She noticed that the man opposite her did not show any change in expression when he heard the words "Guanyin Bodhisattva," neither surprise nor disdain.
"He has a great mentality, high strength, and is shameless; he's truly depraved to the extreme. So, why did he suddenly destroy the Guanyin Temple?"
With that thought in mind, he immediately began to calculate. In that instant, countless celestial secrets flashed by, and he continuously searched for all sorts of information about the man in black.
A moment later, the answer was revealed. Although the secrets of heaven had long been concealed and the specific details could not be calculated, the general outline could still be obtained.
For example, the man in black is currently within a range of 300 to 500 li to the west. Knowing the range makes the rest much easier!
...
With a deafening roar, accompanied by a sky full of strange phenomena, a white jade hand and a precious sword collided directly.
A powerful force emanated from the white jade palm. This was a primal, pure force, like the might of a dragon or elephant. When it moved, it was as if ancient mythical beasts roared. Even from a great distance, one could easily be intimidated by this powerful aura.
As for this sword, its main body is black, and a black dragon is engraved on the blade. The black dragon is so lifelike that it seems to be about to come to life, and it is emitting bursts of dragon roars.
Chant
roar
With a whoosh, the sword and the palm collided.
With a clanging sound of metal striking metal, the sword flew back, but the hand only slightly blocked it. Clearly, the owner of the hand was much more powerful!
"Demon, prepare to die!"
With a cry, Guanyin's next palm strike was even more powerful. It wasn't just filled with physical strength; this time, it also carried Buddhist chants, which sounded anything but benevolent.
Upon seeing this, Cao Pi's expression changed several times.
This is the third day already. The two have been fighting for three days since Guanyin discovered them three days ago.
Of course, the main reason was that Cao Pi was constantly fleeing, fighting as he went and fighting as he went. Otherwise, perhaps Cao Pi would have been defeated in just an hour or a quarter of an hour.
After all, Guanyin was at the half-step sixth level at this time, while Cao Pi was only at the initial fifth level. The reason they could persist for so long was because their magical treasures were of exceptionally high quality!
"Haha, the green hills remain unchanged, and the clear waters flow on forever. Bodhisattva, we are truly destined to meet. In just three days, we have met six times. However, I have something to do today, so I won't be able to flirt with you, Bodhisattva."
With that, accompanied by a hearty laugh, Cao Pi stepped onto an auspicious cloud and vanished in a dazzling display of light. This auspicious cloud, displaying three colors, was one of the trump cards his father, Cao Cao, had left him before entering the realm.
In terms of grade, it is a fifth-order Earth Immortal level magic weapon. When flying at full speed, even if it cannot compare with the Golden Crow Transformation into a Rainbow or the Kunpeng Spreading its Wings, it is still no less than the legendary Golden Light Technique of Vertical Leap and Somersault Cloud!
In recent days, it was precisely thanks to this auspicious cloud that Cao Pi was able to repeatedly escape Guanyin's pursuit.
Seeing this, and looking at Cao Pi, who was only vaguely visible from behind, Guanyin smiled coldly.
"Hmph, all magical artifacts of this kind consume a great deal of magical power. With only a little over a thousand years of magical power, how long can you sustain this?"
With that, she stepped onto the white lotus platform, slowly hovering behind Cao Pi at a distance. Since her magical power was superior, she could simply wear him down!
