Eternal Faith’s heart skipped a beat, and he became a little more timid, but how could he retreat in front of so many juniors? He was protected by the golden avatar and the golden bell anyway, so there was nothing Li Qingshan could do to him. He ordered, “Do it!”
At the same time, he struck the wooden fish in his hand again and again. The thumps seemed to strike Li Qingshan’s heart, directly attacking his soul. Now this was the most powerful way to use this set of arcane artifacts. At the same time, the monks all lunged over together. They probably could take down Li Qingshan in an instant.
Li Qingshan smiled. With how powerful his soul was, he completely ignored the thumpings of the wooden fish. The most powerful way to use the arcane artifacts instead became the most useless against him. He crossed his arms.
With a jangle, black chains criss-crossed together. Eternal Faith’s expression changed. The sounds of the chains seemed to ring out from the depths of his heart. Wielding the wooden fish mallet with his golden avatar, he swung it at Li Qingshan’s forehead.
However, from the corner of his eye, he spotted the shock on the other monks’ faces, all gazing above his head as they called out, “Be careful, senior brother!”
A nine-layered tower appeared above Eternal Faith’s head. It was shaped like a buddhist pagoda, but it possessed a dignified power that could suppress all, descending from above.
Boom!
The Demon Suppression Tower enveloped both Li Qingshan and Eternal Faith, and half of the front of the Courtyard of Secular Affairs’ great hall collapsed. Cracks emanated outwards on the ground.
The last sight that the monks saw was Eternal Faith’s wooden fish mallet looming over Li Qingshan’s head, about to strike him, except Li Qingshan’s lips had curled into a confident smile.
A monk raised his hands and drew everyone’s attention. “Don’t worry, everyone. With senior brother Eternal Faith’s cultivation and all his arcane artifacts, why would he be afraid of this rascal? It’ll just be a moment before he captures the rascal.”
“Help me! Ahhh!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Eternal Faith’s fearful calls and shrieks rang out from the Demon Suppression Tower.
The monk’s expression changed, and he yelled, “Everyone, rescue senior brother from there!”
Over a dozen arcane artifacts flew up together, smashing into the Demon Suppression Tower heavily. The monks were brimming with confidence. With such a powerful attack, they could even tear apart a small mountain, but the end result left them stunned.
The Demon Suppression Tower stood firmly on the ground, without budging at all. They had not even left a mark on the tower’s surface.
What arcane artifact was this!? It was actually so tough!
In the Demon Suppression Tower, Eternal Faith’s miserable cries rose and fell constantly.
Someone else came up with another idea. “Dig a tunnel under the tower and rescue senior brother like that.”
A group of people immediately got to work. In the blink of an eye, they had excavated a tunnel and arrived beneath the tower, but they only found a black bottom as tough as the tower itself. They immediately became powerless.
“Quick, go call the head monk!”
……
Suppressed in the Demon Suppression Tower, Eternal Faith noticed that the golden bell and golden avatar were still around him, so he came to his senses and called out, “Li Qingshan, do you think these evil tricks will work? I’m protected by the golden bell and golden avatar. What can you do to me? Li Qingshan? You…”
Eternal Faith shrieked out in shock. Demon qi curled around Li Qingshan as his figure erupted. His sturdy body became covered in a layer of keratin like he had equipped a set of armour. He seemed to have put on a helmet too, which only revealed his eyes that shone with dazzling, red light.
Eternal Faith backed away. “Save me!”
Chapter 587: Eye of the Sword | Legend of the Great Sage
Eternal Faith leaned against the ice-cold walls of the tower. Although his robes and golden avatar protected him, he did not feel safe at all as he watched Li Qingshan’s red eyes that radiated with malice grow closer and closer. He was like a mortal trapped in a cage with a vicious tiger.
Thunk!
Li Qingshan punched out vigorously, his fist piercing through the air and slamming into the golden bell. The golden bell contorted and changed in shape, sinking in deeply. Its golden light scattered strand by strand.
“Ahh!”
Eternal Faith cried out. The imprint of a punch appeared on his robes, and it showed no signs of fading away. His Protective Robes of the Golden Bell were an arcane artifact for heaven’s sake!
Although it was only an inferior arcane artifact, it should not be fragile to the point where it would sustain so much damage from a single punch. If that punch had downright landed on him, would he still be alive?
Li Qingshan glanced at his fist. From his expression, it seemed like he was rather dissatisfied with the power of the punch.
Although his strength had increased drastically after demonifying, the destructive power was still nowhere close to the true power of the ox demon and tiger demon. Otherwise, a casual punch would have been enough to reduce Eternal Faith’s robes to dust.
However, he was currently right below Great Buddha mountain. Even though he was in the Demon Suppression Tower, he refused to use his powers as a daemon carelessly. Who knew whether the Dauntless monk and his junior brother were currently watching or not.
If he could not tear apart Eternal Faith’s defence quickly, then the powerful figures of the monastery would probably arrive to support him. By then, he would not be able to teach him a fierce lesson anymore.
Suddenly, he was hit with a gust of wind to the face. The wooden fish opened its mouth again and tried to swallow Li Qingshan, while the wooden fish mallet quietly circled around him and flew towards the back of his head. It remained the same size as a regular wooden fish mallet, so it was extremely easy for the attack to succeed if he were careless.
Li Qingshan leapt up, avoiding the lunge from the wooden fish and reaching backwards without even looking back. He caught the wooden fish mallet before quickly falling down and landing heavily on the wooden fish.
The two arcane artifacts trembled desperately, but they were unable to break free from his restraint.
After demonifying, these two arcane artifacts alone were unable to pose any threat to him anymore. Li Qingshan smiled and drew a strange sword from his hundred treasures pouch, the Traitorous Demon sword.
The eyeball on the hilt swiveled, and its pupils locked onto Eternal Faith firmly. Eternal Faith shivered inside, actually feeling like he had been completely seen through.
Within Li Qingshan’s field of vision, a different sight immediately appeared.
He felt like his gaze had passed through the golden bell, the golden avatar, and even his skin, flesh, and bones, seeing something that was even more fundamental. He saw the demonic nature in Eternal Faith’s heart, a clump of swirling, black mist.
Everyone had a demonic nature. Although Eternal Faith was a buddhist disciple, he was greedy and easily angered. His demonic nature was even heavier than regular people’s. Afterwards, Li Qingshan pulled back his gaze and stopped on Eternal Faith’s golden bell.
The strange eyeball on the hilt of the Traitorous Demon sword trembled. Suddenly, Li Qingshan saw a thin, black line on the bell, but he was unable to see anything with his naked eye, nor did he find anything with his soul sense.
What’s that?
Li Qingshan thought. He swung the Traitorous Demon sword and tried slashing along the black line.
The sword passed by with a flash. Eternal Faith was about to mock Li Qingshan’s futile efforts before suddenly shivering. His robes had been cut open silently, revealing his chest and belly and the pale white fat on there.
The glow dispersed, and the golden bell vanished. The robes had lost their protective function.
How is that possible!? My Protective Robes of the Golden Bell! That must be a coincidence! Eternal Faith’s eyes widened. He struggled to believe that a protective arcane artifact could be destroyed silently like that.
