The Quest for Immortality-Chapter 1005: Stealing Home

"Evil fire ran rampant over the Fire Buddha's body."

Right as Gu Changhuai thought to alert everyone to be careful, he heard Xiao Tianquan sneer,

"Evil Demon bandit, a mere individual, no matter how capable you are, you're just a lone man against the odds."

"Everyone, attack together and surround this demon to kill him!"

"Whoever kills the Fire Buddha will be credited with a great achievement!"

Gu Changhuai frowned.

Some credit-hungry Enforcement Leaders, upon hearing the words "great achievement," their eyes shone with greed as they circulated their Spiritual Power and charged at the Fire Buddha with all their might.

Even if the Fire Buddha was formidable, he was only at the Peak of Foundation Establishment.

Most of them were at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, not so different in Cultivation, and even if they couldn't beat him, they could still contend with him for a while without being defeated in a short time.

If fortune favored them and they managed to kill the Fire Buddha directly, securing a position as a Supervisor would be just around the corner.

A few daring Enforcement Leaders led the charge and rushed towards the Fire Buddha.

The Fire Buddha, with his body engulfed in flames, stood as immovable as a mountain.

Suddenly, his expression turned cold, his eyes revealed a murderous intent, and the aura of his entire being underwent an abrupt transformation.

Gu Changhuai's complexion changed, "This is bad!"

Before the words fell, he flicked his folding fan in a flash, unleashing a series of Wind Blades towards the Fire Buddha, attempting to interrupt his lethal move.

The corners of the Fire Buddha's mouth turned up in a hint of cold mockery, his red Kasaya billowed, forming a wall of fire.

The Wind Blades struck the fire wall.

The wall shattered, and the Wind Blades dissipated as well.

Unable to tap into the power of the Golden Core, Gu Changhuai, although stronger than the Peak Foundation Establishment Fire Buddha, was not by much.

Upon the initial exchange, they were evenly matched.

Following the fire wall's resistance against the Wind Blades, the Fire Buddha's gaze turned blood-red, his killing intent rising.

He appeared like a ferocious Monster Beast, baring its bloodthirsty fangs.

His body blazed with roaring flames which, in an instant, turned into murky grey-black, and his whole being's aura began to warp.

Within the void, pained whispers and fearful wailing arose.

It was as if all those who had died under his Spells had transformed into "murderous karma."

The deep-seated murderous karma morphed into a strange Evil Qi.

The Evil Qi melded with the Spells, spreading with the flames, gradually filling the great hall.

In everyone's hearts, a layer of shadow was cast, their Taoist Hearts wavered, and an involuntary sense of fear arose.

At this moment, the Fire Buddha was like a Demon Head from hell, wrapped in endless Karmic Fire, having committed countless murders.

Especially for several Cultivators from the Taoist Court near the Fire Buddha.

In their eyes, the Fire Buddha had suddenly shifted from a benign and gentle "Buddha" to a man-eating "Demon Creature," ominously ferocious and terrifying.

The Evil Qi within the flames invaded their minds.

A bone-deep fear engulfed them.

Their limbs weakened, they clenched their teeth, yet still, they could not help but shiver violently.

Their bodies and Spiritual Power, because of the fear brought on by the Evil Qi, were beyond their control.

The fear of "death" drove them toward it.

With a cold laugh, the Fire Buddha made a motion with his hand as if grasping, and conjured a fiery blade, swinging it fiercely and casting a crimson arc of light, slaying all the terrified Enforcement Leaders who had been poisoned by the Evil Qi and were too scared to resist.

Gu Changhuai was furiously enraged but also felt a chill in his heart.

"Evil Qi?!"

Gu Changhuai's eyes were ice-cold as he denounced, "You beast, how did the 'Evil Transformation Skill' of the Sect of Demon fall into your hands?"

Fire Buddha replied with his hands together, "My Buddha is compassionate, allowing me to practice this method, to use the 'Karmic Fire' to 'save all beings.'"

Gu Changhuai cursed, "You bald thief, spouting such bullshit!"

The Fire Buddha's expression remained indifferent, not at all angered, but simply gazing at Gu Changhuai.

His eyes shone with a mix of excitement and hatred under the illumination of the firelight.

"Back then, my heart channels were severely wounded by you, hanging by a thread..."

"The fear and agony between life and death is something I will never forget..."

"Now I have perfected my Meteor Fire Skill, transformed murder into Evil Qi, refined the Evil Qi with my technique, suppressed it with the Buddha's teachings; merging sin, heart, and method into one; the Forbidden Technique is complete!"

"How will you kill me now?"

The Fire Buddha sneered softly,

"One day, when I Breakthrough into the Golden Core, I will go to great lengths to slaughter all those close to you, Gu Changhuai, and use the resentment from your flesh to cultivate the true… Golden Core Evil Qi!"

Gu Changhuai's anger turned into a deep-seated killing intent,

"Then today, I shall dismember you alive and scatter your pieces to the winds!"

Gu Changhuai's body surged with Spiritual Power, raising a fearsome gale, atop which blades layered like scales, also as dense as feathers.

The Fire Buddha's expression changed slightly, a trace of dread appearing in his eyes.

"The Gu Family's Superior Daoist Magic, the Wind-Riding Feather Transformation Art!"

Back then, it was this Spell that had crushed his heart channels, leaving his life hanging by a thread.

Having not seen it for so many years, this Superior Daoist Magic was now even more terrifying.

But rather than fearing it, the Fire Buddha's will to battle only intensified.

Today, he would confront the Wind-Riding Feather Transformation Art of the Gu Family, long serving as lapdogs for the Taoist Court, with his Meteor Fire Forbidden Art, having completed his Spell.

He would eradicate old grievances and break free from the inner demons!

The Fire Buddha's eyes were murky and malevolent, surrounded by a surging Evil Qi at its zenith.

Within a range of several dozens of feet, all the Cultivators from the Taoist Court were intimidated by the Evil Qi, paralyzed with terror, unable to move.

Then, the Fire Buddha stretched out both arms, and his Kasaya lit up with flames, solidifying into hundreds of fire droplets.

These droplets, laden with formidable Evil Power, in a blink, burst forth like fiery sparks in a downpour, swiftly scattering outward and assaulting the fear-stricken Cultivators of the Taoist Court.

Gu Changhuai's brows furrowed.

He too was affected by the Evil Qi, but with his deep Cultivation and the firm intent to kill the Fire Buddha, he was not much troubled.

Seeing the Fire Buddha unleashing a rain of fire with the intent to slaughter the Taoist Court Cultivators.

Gu Changhuai's expression turned cold, his fan swept across, and the Wind Blades around him, like feathers, swept towards the fiery rain.
