Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 619 - 523: Bone Arhat
Wanchuan City, a hundred towering high buildings!
"All destroyed?"
A deep, sinister voice echoed from within this dilapidated high tower, pierced with several large holes. Throughout the boundless giant city, billions of terrifying eyes instantly lit up at the sound.
"Reporting to the master, of the thirteen armies we dispatched, only Blood-Drinking and Drawing Beast have sent back news.
The other eleven armies led by the generals have all lost contact."
Listening to the report from his subordinate, a chilling laughter suddenly emanated from within the high tower.
"Hehehe, hahaha, good, very good!
This bunch of rats finally dares to have a head-on battle with me, the Marshal!"
BOOM——
A deafening explosion rocked the heavens!
Shattered debris poured down like torrential rain. Suddenly, an extremely terrifying pair of hands, covered in sinewy flesh and purplish-red tumors, stretched out from the depths of the high tower, gripping the edge of a hole. In an instant, an immensely huge figure, over ten thousand feet tall and exuding a bloody aura as vast as the abyss, strode out of the high building.
With eyes like blood moons gazing at the distant dim horizon, its fang-studded mouth, dripping with pus, twisted into a slight smirk.
"Don't bore me, Marshal."
...
Beneath a city, far beyond measure.
White Bone Strongmen surged like a tidal wave sweeping across the world.
Wherever they went, the ground trembled, mountains collapsed, as if the thunderous roar would drill through the earth.
With a leap, a White Bone Strongman soared a thousand meters, landing atop the city wall, below which divine breeders had long been in battle readiness. As soon as they looked up, terrifying figures stood on the wall, looking down.
Before the divine breeders could react, a barrage of explosive fists, wrapped in terrifying vigor, came crashing down heavily.
Slaughter!
Instantly erupted!
Sitting atop a black cloud, the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner floated gently beside Tai Yin. Streams of black mist flowed on its pitch-black cloth, obscure halos twinkled from the seventy-three Profound Yin Dao Talismans engraved upon it, exuding oppressive might.
"This [White Bone Demonic Dao] is indeed one of the sect-defending methods of the Netherworld Demonic Sect of old, dual cultivation of Buddha and demon, with boundless mystical uses.
It's a pity that I, Sovereign, have never valued demonic methods, unwilling to cultivate deeply.
Otherwise, with this method alone, back in the Southern Ming Wasteland, leveraging that filthy and extremely yin place, I could have effortlessly forged a Bone Demon Army to sweep the land!"
Holding the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner beside him, Tai Yin clicked his tongue softly, lamenting inwardly. Yet, upon reflection, it was not surprising that he did not prioritize the White Bone Demonic Dao.
After all, my main cultivation is the Primordial Path, not favoring any particular demon or Buddha sect.
Furthermore, every method I cultivate is at the level of a sect-defending True Scripture Volume.
Compared to "Innate Thunder Dao Treasure Strategy," "Heavenly Sovereignty Sword Skill," "Primordial Gold Chapter," and "Great Five Elements Path,"
"White Bone Demonic Dao" is indeed not quite eye-catching.
Gently shaking the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner in his hand, Tai Yin chanted obscure mantra syllables. One by one, the seventy-three Profound Yin Dao Talismans on the banner lit up, as strands of Taiyin Dao Essence were infused into the big banner.
Down below, the battling White Bone Strongmen each had a Taiyin Dao Talisman lighting up on their foreheads!
"Taiyin Limitless! Bone Refinement Method! Rise!"
With a mystical seal art in one hand, Tai Yin softly called out, tossing the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner high into the air.
The next moment!
On the battleground below, like a blood and flesh grindstone, rivers of blood, grievances, remnant souls, and bones all were drawn by an inexplicable attraction, transforming into a mighty river of blood and flesh that streamed endlessly into the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner in the sky.
"I, Sovereign, walking the Demonic Path in cultivating the 'White Bone Demonic Dao,' have merely four Bone Guardian Demon Gods, each possessing combat power not inferior to a Dao Expert.
I do not have Sovereign's vast Dao Yuan to nurture such a level of Bone Demon God.
So I can only walk another path of the Bodhisattva Path.
Accumulating quantity to forge quality!"
With eyes ablaze with blood light, Tai Yin raised both hands, breathing out streams of Taiyin Dao Essence, as black as ink, surging continuously into the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner.
Instantly, on its abyss-black surface appeared scenes of White Bone Strongmen fighting, devouring the remains, and ceaselessly transforming and evolving.
Qi Xiu's Bone Demon God, all forged with rare ancient materials, whether Dragon Bone Demon Child or the corpse of a Hundred-Eyed Demon.
These are things Tai Yin couldn't procure.
But the "White Bone Demonic Dao" itself is a method to turn decay into marvels, blending Buddha and demon aspects.
To transform the ordinary to extraordinary!
Practitioners can choose between two paths for specialization.
One path of the Demonic Path, the other of the Bodhisattva Path!
Within the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner, White Bone Strongmen were being refined one after another, quickly joining the never-ending slaughter.
Gradually, countless white bone fragments piled up, forming a small mountain.
The White Bone Strongmen were engaged in savage combat on this small mountain, devouring each other as they transformed.
Until the last White Bone Strongman viciously smashed its opponent's skull.
In the entire White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner, only it remained.
With its damaged and broken body, this White Bone Strongman staggered and sat down on the Bone Mountain. The previously ferocious and brutal bone face, now faintly exuded an inexplicable Buddha nature.
The dark fire in its eye sockets was replaced by a clear and bright golden light.
The next second!
Only to see this White Bone Strongman suddenly turn into a cloud of ashes, and on its remnants, a White Bone Lotus gradually bloomed.
On the pure and clear Lotus Platform, a figure made entirely of jade-like white bones, tall and majestic as a mountain, with a Taiyin Dao Talisman engraved between its brows, as if possessing the power to subdue dragons and tigers, sat with dignity.
Gazing at the figure that transformed within the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner, Tai Yin's eyes revealed a gleam of brilliance:
"Unexpectedly, within the extremity of this [White Bone Demonic Dao], there is actually a Dao Charm of strength!
It is rumored that within the Buddhist Great Path, there is a Strength Path Method called [Great Vajra Divine Power], which is considered top-tier within the Path of Strength.
Perhaps... when that eminent monk abandoned Buddhism for the Demon Path and joined the Netherworld Demonic Sect, creating this [White Bone Demonic Dao], he had already learned this Strength Path Method.
Thus, when he created the White Bone Demonic Dao, he integrated this Dao Charm of strength into it, but it was hidden so deeply that it was hard to discover under normal circumstances.
I used the Taiyin Limitless Path to stimulate the Bone Refinement Method, and unexpectedly revived this hidden Dao Charm of strength.
Forged this... Bone Arhat!"
With a clasped laugh, Tai Yin eagerly raised his hand to summon back the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner, gently swaying its surface.
The Bone Arhat sitting cross-legged on the Lotus Platform suddenly awakened. As it stood up, the vast power contained within it was like a cataclysm, making it hard for Tai Yin to hold the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner in his hand.
Executing a Seal Art, Tai Yin released the Bone Arhat, his eyes deep and contemplative.
Boom——
Like a pale meteor from beyond the heavens, it fiercely crashed into the giant city ahead. Amidst the deafening rumble, the dust and smoke spread for thousands of meters, the visible ring of shockwaves ravaging everything in its path, turning half the city into ruins.
Bang!
The deafening impact caused the entire city's ground to sink abruptly. An extremely terrifying figure rushed into the battlefield.
Rumble——
The residual shadows, invisible to the naked eye, were like a colossal scythe harvesting lives, as they passed through, the void continuously exploded, and the light cables twisted to the extreme.
The pure, ultimate primal force caused the ground beneath the shadows to sink due to the rampant vigor, leaving a blank slate.
The impregnable divine body, the power to shatter heaven and earth!
The Bone Arhat did not exhibit any Divine Marvel Power, yet with just these two attributes, it already exhibited a destructive force comparable to a Dao Expert.
"Stop it for me!"
The Divine Breeder, leisurely slaying the god-breeders within the city like crushing ants, finally couldn't bear it. With an angry shout, countless tentacles filled with tumors, black and red twisted, erupted from the ground, crushing everything within a thousand-mile radius!
At the same time, a large area of red mist surged forth. Under this strange mist, all the Divine Breeders and White Bone Strongmen began to grow tentacles, fangs, tumors, fur, visibly transforming into extremely ugly monsters.
Witnessing the strange red mist approaching, the Bone Arhat clasped its hands together, and a white Buddha Light suddenly appeared behind its head. Strands of clear brilliance descended, and its feet evolved into a Buddha land, rendering the ferocious red mist and tentacles incapable of advancing even a step.
Under the illumination of the White Bone Buddha Light.
The alienated White Bone Strongmen returned to normal, and their skeletal bodies gradually bore a jade-like color similar to the Bone Arhat.
Those Divine Breeders under the Buddha Light quickly shed their flesh, and within moments, were converted into White Bone Strongmen.
"Good!"
Seeing the performance of the Bone Arhat, Tai Yin immediately nodded with a light shout, his gaze slightly moving.
This Bone Arhat should not be the extremity of the Bodhisattva Path.
If the Netherworld Demonic Sect's Sect's Defending Technique was only like this, then the Netherworld Demonic Sect would not be revered as one of the Ten Great Ancient Demonic Sects.
Just to refine this Bone Arhat, I used up the million skeleton souls I had accumulated.
To further advance from the Bone Arhat to a White Bone Bodhisattva.
The required amount of white bone and flesh is astronomical.
Tsk tsk, if this method is cultivated in the Tianyuan Main Realm, it'd probably take exterminating the entire Human Race within the Great Xuan to achieve perfection.
I think I now understand why the original wished not to delve deeply into this method, and only collected Divine Material to refine those four White Bone Devil Gods.
Understanding the constraints of cultivating the White Bone Demonic Dao, Tai Yin took a deep breath.
"Blood Transformation Divine Saber, White Bone Bodhisattva.
This Great World... is simply too suitable for this poor Daoist."
With a burst of bloodlight in his eyes, Tai Yin raised his Daoist incantation, chanting ancient and complex syllables. At the same time, the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner in his hand began to flutter wildly, the boundless churning black mist broke free and charged towards the city below.
"White Bone, heed the command!"
"Massacre the city!"
...
