Dragon-Marked War God

“Look, there seems to be a towering building over there, flickering in and out of sight. That must be the Great Thunderclap Temple.”

“That’s right. We should have truly entered the old site of the Great Thunderclap Temple by now. All we need to do now is find the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple, and then we can enter it.”

“Yes, the old site of the Great Thunderclap Temple is right under our feet. Once the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple appears and we go in, we could be swallowed up. We have to be very careful.”

“It seems the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple is destined to be a fierce contest. Six great temples entering at the same time, it’ll definitely be a gathering of heroes. Hahaha. Just thinking about it is exciting.”

Everyone was in high spirits. After all, the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple they were about to enter was extremely dangerous. With so many experts, even if they might not kill one another, once it really came down to fighting over the God Suppressing Monument, they probably would not be able to stay calm. Even these monks who had left the secular world might not be able to keep their original hearts.

In the end, everyone knew what everyone else was thinking. Who was not here for the Reincarnated Living Buddha and the God Suppressing Monument? It was just that for now everyone was being polite. Once they were truly inside the Great Thunderclap Temple, only the strong would survive. Whoever lived to the end and whoever got the God Suppressing Monument was all that mattered.

Jiang Chen silently watched this scene. Everyone was full of confidence, but he did not know who would truly have the last laugh. And this was only the force led by Zhongsheng Temple. How could the other five great temples be anything ordinary? Right now, Jiang Chen only hoped that the others would not run into the Reincarnated Living Buddha too early. Otherwise, the situation would be very difficult. Although it was still not certain whether that person was the monk, even if it was not, Jiang Chen was absolutely determined to get the God Suppressing Monument. Even if it was not the monk, this person had to be closely connected to him. The monk would never give the God Suppressing Monument to anyone else. So finding the God Suppressing Monument was the same as finding the monk.

“Not far ahead is where the storm of the Great Thunderclap Temple gathers. Only those below the Divine Emperor Realm can enter there. And if your strength is lower than the Hierarch Realm, you’ll be crushed to death instantly. Even an ordinary Hierarch won’t be able to hold out for long. The Great Thunderclap Temple has three places where the storm gathers. Besides us, the people of Tianluo Temple are also on our side.”

Jie Yan said in a deep voice. As the envoy for this entry into the Great Thunderclap Temple, he could not go in himself, but he would definitely give them his warnings. This was no game. It was a life-and-death race against time.

“Yes, Martial Uncle Jie Yan. Amitabha.”

Yuan De, Yuan Qing and Yuan Bao all said solemnly, pressing their palms together. Jiang Chen and the others watched the scenery around them flash by along the way. Every place showed how absolutely glorious and dominant the Great Thunderclap Temple had once been.

“Look, are those the people of Tianluo Temple?”

Dou Tianhuang looked ahead, drawing everyone’s attention. A group of more than ten people ahead made all of them focus their eyes there.

Jie Yan looked solemn. He pressed his palms together and said a quiet Amitabha. They moved forward, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

In the distance, more than ten people came striding through the air and met up with them. At a glance, they were full of experts, all incredibly strong. The leader was also a Divine Emperor, his aura covering the sky, his strength astonishing.

“Amitabha. Yunlan the Enlightened, it’s been a long time. I hope you’ve been well. We haven’t seen each other for hundreds of thousands of years, and you’re still as dashing as ever.”

Jie Yan said with a faint smile. This was the first time Jiang Chen had seen Jie Yan smile even a little. At this moment, the leader, Yunlan the Enlightened, also nodded and said with a smile.

“Amitabha. Indeed, we haven’t seen each other for hundreds of thousands of years. Meeting an old friend again, my heart is truly gladdened. Haha.”

Yunlan the Enlightened and Jie Yan smiled at each other. Who would have thought that even monks who had left the secular world could be so polite with each other?

At this moment, the people behind Yunlan and the people behind Jie Yan eyed one another. Each side was secretly sizing up the other, because they knew that once they entered the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple, they would probably quickly become enemies. Once they found any trace of the Reincarnated Living Buddha, a great battle would very likely break out.

After a few pleasantries between Yunlan the Enlightened and Jie Yan, the two of them stopped reminiscing. Jie Yan went straight to the point.

“It seems Senior Brother Yunlan has also brought quite a few experts this time. Heh. I wonder if you know where exactly the Reincarnated Living Buddha is inside the Great Thunderclap Temple?”

Yunlan the Enlightened shook his head, sighed and said.

“Sigh, who knows? You know better than anyone how big the Great Thunderclap Temple is. But as for where exactly the Reincarnated Living Buddha is, we have no idea where to start either. We can only hope that once they go in, they’ll work together. Only then will there be any hope of finding the Reincarnated Living Buddha.”

“What Reincarnated Living Buddha? He’s just a great demon. How many people of our Western-pole Divine Land has he killed? How can someone like that be called a Reincarnated Living Buddha? With the sin of taking so many lives, he doesn’t deserve to be called a Buddha at all.”

Jie Yan’s face turned grave. He seemed to hate this Reincarnated Living Buddha to the bone.

“It may be a little too early to jump to conclusions now, but in everyone’s hearts, this Reincarnated Living Buddha has already become a reincarnated great demon. Even if he’s captured, he should be killed as soon as possible to appease the grievances of the world.”

Yunlan the Enlightened nodded and said.

“Now all we can do is leave it to fate. If we could go in ourselves, things might be quite different.”

Jie Yan said with some regret.

“Our strength is too great. If we entered the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple, the whole illusory realm would quickly collapse, and there would be no chance of finding the Reincarnated Living Buddha. Besides, a Divine Emperor’s power is too great. The illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple couldn’t hold up for long. We can only rely on these juniors to go in and search. For them, it will also be quite a good opportunity to train.”

Jie Yan very much agreed with what Yunlan the Enlightened said.

“Then let them go in quickly. The sooner they find the Reincarnated Living Buddha, the sooner we can rest easy. Once this great scourge of the Western-pole Divine Land is eliminated, our pure land will return to peace again.”

Jie Yan said.

The two of them nodded together. The group of more than twenty people was all ready.

“Are you all ready? Next, you’ll be entering the illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple. It’s exactly the same as the Great Thunderclap Temple used to be, so don’t be surprised by anything you see, because it’s a projection of the Great Thunderclap Temple. You only need to keep firmly in mind what you’ve been told. Get ready to set off. You only have ten years. After ten years, this illusory realm of the Great Thunderclap Temple should disappear. If you can’t get out in time, you might be teleported to some other place, and whether you live or die will be very hard to say. So within ten years, you must come back, regardless of life or death, regardless of victory or defeat.”

Jie Yan said in a deep voice, every word carrying weight.

Xuanyuan Yumo, Luo Binwang and the others all nodded silently. They knew that this was like a hunt, and at this moment, it had already quietly begun.
