Chapter 1967: Severing Karma

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

There was no need to doubt Qin Wentian’s strength. He could destroy the Ziwei Divine Court, kill the Ziwei Star Sovereign and defeat Yue Changkong.

In the western paradise, the power of the buddha lords was naturally extremely strong. They were comparable to peak characters from the various hegemonic powers but they might not be able to win against Qin Wentian. The monks of the western paradise had to admit that Qin Wentian has already reached that level and he was among the stronger ones among existences of that level too. If not, how could he have killed the Ziwei Star Sovereign?

However, the monks and buddhas of the western paradise also believed in the Karma Buddha’s strength. Qin Wentian wanted to kill a buddha lord of their western paradise in an independent spacetime? It probably wouldn’t be so easy.

But even so, it was impossible for them to wait passively.

One of the buddha lords activated his buddha dao heavenly eye and managed to see past all illusions. Even for that independent spacetime, it was revealed under the gaze of his heavenly eye. Buddhic light flashed, the heavenly eye shot through space and time and arrived there, turning its gaze onto the battlefield. The buddha lord saw the scene where Qin Wentian and the Karma Buddha were currently fighting each other.

He saw that in this independent spacetime, everything seemed to stop. A powerful devil might dominated everything. The power of this entire world congregated into the devil saber in front of Qin Wentian. Silence was everywhere, the Karma Buddha stood opposite him and a buddha lamp could be seen in his body, shining resplendently. The light from the lamp enveloped Qin Wentian, linking the two of them by karma.

This was truly a shocking scene. It caused the buddha lord to feel that the battle was about to be concluded. The two of them were currently in their ultimate confrontation.

“How is it?” The monks and buddhas in the surroundings asked the Heavenly Eye Buddha.

“This brat has gone mad.” The Heavenly Eye Buddha Lord coldly replied. His heavenly eye shone with a corporeal light, wanting to open up an ancient buddhic path that leads to the independent spacetime.

The various monks and buddhas frowned. Qin Wentian was actually so powerful?

However, no matter if he was strong or not, since he came into the western paradise, his fate was already determined. No one had dared to act so brazenly before. The Grim Reaper was an exception. Since Qin Wentian came, it was impossible for them to allow him to leave here unscathed.

The Karma Buddha has already set the karma. No matter how the ending was, Qin Wentian’s karma is already fated.

In that chaotic spacetime, that terrifying devilish might still permeated the atmosphere. Everything here entered a state of absolute stillness. The two of them didn’t move. Behind Qin Wentian, an astral soul appeared. This astral soul was a brand new one that has never been unleashed by him before. This astral soul absorbed all energy, causing countless daos to integrate into it, fusing them together inside the devil saber. The devil saber emitted a might that could destroy everything. Even for the Karma Buddha, he felt his heart shudder when he sensed the power of this might.

“After you die, will you be qualified to enter hell?” Qin Wentian asked.

The Karma Buddha pressed his palms together. Buddhic light enveloped him as he spoke, “If Benefactor Qin can enter, I will be able to as well. You and I are linked by karma.”

“The karma force might be strong but it is still a type of dao. In this world, there are no unbreakable daos.” Qin Wentian’s eyes turned incomparably dark. His hand that held the devil god saber was extremely steady. At this moment, a burst of power erupted from the saber. His gaze was filled by madness, covered over by devil intent.

“Try it.” The Karma Buddha wasn’t affected by Qin Wentian, he was as calm as ever.

“Sure.” A towering devil might exploded forth, creating chaos. He lifted the saber, all the daos in the world fused within it as the time here entered a state of absolute stillness.

The Karma Buddha lifted his head and stared at Qin Wentian. Would he really dare to slash the saber downwards?

A saber of darkness arced through space, tearing apart the void. This saber strike was as swift as thunder, instantly landing on its target in this place where the time has been stilled. This saber slash was decisive and ruthless, there was no hesitation.

Fresh blood instantly splattered. One of the Karma Buddha’s arms was slashed apart. Even buddhas can bleed.

But at the same moment the Karma Buddha’s arm was slashed off, Qin Wentian’s left arm suddenly felt an intense tearing pain. A moment later, his arm limply hung there, like it was broken too.

“Slashing me equates to slashing yourself. We are linked by karma.” The Karma Buddha stared at Qin Wentian. Even though one of his arms was torn off, he showed no agony or fear. He was as calm as ever. Since they were linked, how could Qin Wentian kill him?

Slashing at him means slashing himself.

Who would bear to slash themselves?

His dao was destined to be undying.

“Puchi…” Black lightning flashed as another saber strike cleaved down. There was no hesitation at all. One of the Karma Buddha’s legs was slashed off, causing fresh blood to flow. His lips twitched as his expression changed. Qin Wentian radiated towering devilish might, it was like he could feel no pain at all.

“I’ve long tasted the feeling of death many years ago. I wonder if you tasted it before? If not, you would be tasting the feeling of death today as well as understanding what true hell is.” Qin Wentian spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, he slashed out again and again, dismembering the Karma Buddha’s body. The expression of the Karma Buddha finally changed, revealing terror. He stared in disbelief at Qin Wentian.

At this moment, Qin Wentian was covered in devilish might but he could be sure that the pain Qin Wentian felt was no less than his.

Qin Wentian’s eyes were dark as he stared at the Karma Buddha. “So, even buddhas can feel fear. Seems like you also have no wish to go into hell.”

After speaking, the devil saber lifted up. When he thought of Little Ye’s death, the madness in his eyes intensified.

The saber light was like black lightning, cleaving out again and again, destroying the Karma Buddha’s body. However, his soul was still there. The ethereal soul of the Karma Buddha showed a struggling expression, he stared at Qin Wentian who has also lost his body as he asked, “Have you gone crazy?”

“The power of the daos have to depend on humans to unleash its full might. Since I cannot destroy the dao even after destroying your body, I can only choose to destroy your soul.” Qin Wentian’s soul formed a corporeal body swiftly as he slashed out with the saber once more.

“ARGH!” A scream or misery echoed through the air. The pain of one’s soul being sliced caused the Karma Buddha to be truly terrified. Terror shone in his eyes, it was terror towards death. His buddha lamp that was shining upon Qin Wentian also gradually dimmed.

Just like what Qin Wentian said, the power of daos ultimately depended on human control.

“STOP!” The Karma Buddha roared but Qin Wentian didn’t do so. He coldly spoke, “You will surely die before me. This is your sin, the price you have to pay. You are proficient in the dao of karma but have you ever thought about your own ultimate end?”

As howls of pain continuously rang out, the buddhic light shining on Qin Wentian grew increasingly dimmer before snuffing out completely. His soul also became extremely weak. At this moment, he even found it difficult to control the powerful devil saber. As for the Karma Buddha, only a remnant of his soul remained, the soul remnant was so weak like it could dissipate at any moment.

“You are a devil!” The Karma Buddha roared. He was no longer as peaceful and as calm as before, his expression was convulsing.

The devil saber lifted once more as devilish will flooded the area. The final saber strike was about to slash out.

At this moment, the light from a heavenly eye shot into this place. After that, an icy voice echoed out, “Qin Wentian, have you gone mad? Stop now!”

“Gone mad? Stop now?” Qin Wentian’s expression was extremely cold. Indeed, he has gone crazy but he wouldn’t stop. The western world will pay the price for everything they’ve done. Since these buddhas have no benevolence, he shall deliver all of them. He will tell them that when buddhas took up the blade of slaughter to harm others, they would receive an even more terrifying retribution.

“DIE!” Qin Wentian slashed out with the saber, aiming at the last soul remnant of the Karma Buddha. The buddha lamp crumbled apart, the struggling ethereal soul form of the Karma Buddha vanished, his life ended amidst boundless pain and agony. Most probably, the Karma Buddha’s heart was filled with reluctance. He was a buddha lord of the western paradise and understood the dao of karma, enabling him to control people easily.

But today, someone barged into the western paradise and killed him. This sounded ridiculous, when he saw Qin Wentian earlier, he didn’t panic at all. From his view, Qin Wentian was merely courting death. He was a buddha lord of the western paradise after all. But his ending was so miserable.

The Karma Buddha was slashed to death, Qin Wentian didn’t have it easy either. Because of the karma link, he suffered heavy damage and lost more than half his life force.

The devil saber faded. He sat cross-legged and circulated the Undying Scripture. The powerful undying force began to aid his soul in recovery. After that, his physical body slowly appeared again. He had an undying soul and an undying body. As long as his soul wasn’t completely exterminated, he would be able to live.

The Karma Buddha wanted to perish with him? How could things be so easy? As long as Qin Wentian had a hint of vitality remaining, he would be able to live on.
