Chapter 362: Okay 4 words split into 2 chapters
It was midnight, just after midnight, and the bright moon was hanging high above the darkness.
After the timer returns to zero, it starts counting again.
A new day begins.
"Run—"
It was like thunder exploding in the sky, and the sleeping people were suddenly awakened.
The sound, which was packed with deep inner strength, was like a huge bell being struck on a pilgrimage mountain, continuous and echoing through the sky.
"Keep running towards the center—"
"Run—"
The awakened crowd sat up from their beds in a daze, their minds going blank and their ears aching from the ringing.
what?
They raised their hands and patted their heads which were a mess like a ball of paste, and blinked a little late.
run?
Why run?
Puran jumped from the windowsill to the ground without stopping for a moment. She flew through the streets and alleys while shouting, sending out an escape notice before the disaster.
Bodhi followed closely behind her and went with her to the most central area of the entire Licheng.
The two of them walked with great speed, as if they were riding on clouds and mist, and they quickly arrived at their destination.
At this time, there was no one in the wide square, only the stone sculpture standing in the center was extremely eye-catching.
Under the cold moonlight, Bodhi sat cross-legged, and when his long golden eyelashes fell, his temperament suddenly changed.
The hem of the dress spread out on the ground like petals, and the golden magic circle popped open and expanded with a "swoosh".
He sat at the center of the formation, just like sitting on a lotus platform.
The complicated spell was like the veins of a butterfly's wings, extending all the way across the circular formation, emitting brilliant light.
The long platinum hair fluttered in the wind, and the frosty and cold eyebrows were dotted with a touch of holiness.
There was a touch of crimson between the man’s eyebrows, he had golden lotus tassels on his earrings, a necklace around his neck, his palms were clasped together, and Buddhist beads were quietly hanging on his wrists.
The two pale lips recited the scriptures very quickly but clearly:
"The sublime Dharma is profound and subtle, and is difficult to encounter in a hundred thousand aeons."
"I now see and hear and receive and uphold, and wish to understand the true meaning of the Tathagata."
After reciting the opening verse, buds began to bloom on the formation. Pu Ran took off the Jiuzhou Ding from his waist and threw it high into the sky, positioning it above and in front of Bodhi.
She was also reciting something. The Jiuzhou Ding was activated and emitted a layer of milky white light. Slowly, it began to rotate faster and faster in the air.
The imperial seal guards the imperial palace.
The Xuan-Yuan Sword slays all demons and evildoers for the monarch.
The Jiuzhou Ding is the strongest auxiliary divine object. Now that it is activated, the strength of Bodhi spiritual power has been greatly increased.
The moment the Jiuzhou Ding turned, the buds on the magic circle bloomed one after another and transformed into golden lotuses floating beside Bodhi.
"Thus have I heard, at one time the Buddha was in Sravasti, at the Jetavana Monastery."
"…Since the Buddha turned the wheel of Dharma, he has passed down the will and testaments, strictly observed the Vinaya, and spread the teachings throughout the three realms. He has manifested countless bodies to save all living beings…"
What he recited was the "Lingyan Sutra", which is most feared by demons and evil spirits.
The clear and pleasant Sanskrit sounds and the vast spiritual power spread out at the same time, spreading from the center to every corner of Licheng with an unstoppable force.
In front of him, Pu Ran was holding the Xuan-Yuan Sword, his obsidian eyes gleaming coldly as he stared at the bright moon in the sky.
"come out!"
She opened her lips, and her voice, as calm as dead water, seemed even more eerie in the darkness.
"Ah……"
Someone laughed softly, and a cloud of miasma appeared out of nowhere above the sky. It twisted and squeezed, and soon the thick fog dissipated, revealing the young man's delicate features.
Helian Shi floated in the air, opened his arms and looked down at Puran, and said happily: "Sister, we meet again."
He tilted his head and pretended to be innocent: "How did you find me?"
Pu Ran raised his eyelids indifferently: "I can sense when something dirty comes."
The already tense atmosphere suddenly froze because of these words.
……
Run quickly——
Just like a stone falling into the water, the ripples eventually spread across the entire lake, completely breaking the tranquility of the night.
The sleeper was awakened, rubbed his eyes in a daze, yawned, opened the window and looked out, and after finding nothing unusual, he fell asleep again cursing.
Who is this wicked person disturbing people’s sweet dreams in the middle of the night?
But the people living on the outskirts, close to the miasma, were not as calm as them.
What run?
Could it be that the mysterious fog is corroding inwards?
The lights in every house were lit, and many people hurriedly got out of bed, put on their shoes, opened the door and ran out holding lights.
It was like running to the beach to watch the ocean, and within a few steps I reached the junction, where more and more residents gathered, swallowing nervously and moving the lights closer.
The black fog that had been silent for three days suddenly began to twist restlessly, twisting into whirlwinds of varying sizes that rotated at high speed in place, ready to go, and full of danger.
Everyone's pupils shrank a little bit in shock, and they could even hear a hoarse roar from the fog.
The old man was so frightened that his legs went limp, unable to move as if he was nailed to the spot, "Ahhhhhhhhhh, run!!!"
My ears were filled with the sounds of people shouting in fear and running.
The old man's arms trembled as he saw the black fog, which had already formed a terrifying whirlwind, suddenly rushing towards him.
It opened its bloody mouth towards him like a wild beast that had broken free from its restraints.
If you get caught up you will die.
As long as you breathe you will die.
"Clap-"
The lantern fell off the fingers that were holding it and fell to the ground, and tears oozed from his cloudy eyes.
He watched the black fog approaching in an instant, all expressions frozen on his face, like a lifeless sculpture.
"Boom-"
"Boom-"
"Boom-"
Three dull thumping sounds rang in his ears in succession, and he came back to his senses trembling.
After seeing the scene clearly, the dull eyes suddenly lit up with dazzling light.
"A miracle... a miracle..."
His expression changed again and again, from dead despair to helpless confusion, then to disbelief at seeing everything clearly, and now to excitement and ecstasy.
The incoming black mist was firmly blocked outside by a transparent wall of pale golden light.
The infinitely extending arc towers into the clouds, like a barrier sent down from heaven to protect all living beings.
The old man's eyes were filled with tears. He knelt in front of the screen and kowtowed three times devoutly.
"God bless us... God bless us to survive this disaster..."
The lantern was shattered like hope, but at this moment, he had a new hope.
He ran back to the house breathlessly, helped his disabled wife up from the bed, and cried and laughed: "Come on, we still have a chance, let's go!"
The smoke filled the air, making the barrier seem even more sacred and inviolable.
Many people noticed this spectacle and staggered back. Their unsteady steps became firm and resolute, and they turned around and ran desperately towards the center.
"Boom-"
"Boom boom boom——"
The illusory miasma condensed into a terrifying air mass, madly hitting the barrier again and again.
Resentment, madness and desire for destruction caused them to squeeze and impact violently.
"Click——"
The barrier shattered with a crisp sound, and before the tiny cracks had time to spread, they turned into a blooming golden lotus.
Countless golden stars overflowed from the stamens, and the pure spiritual energy slightly repelled the fog, but the miasma that turned into a flood and a beast became more and more crazy and collided continuously.
In the center of the square, Bodhi closed his eyes and chanted at the same speed, but beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, and the light of the Jiuzhou Ding rotating in the sky became stronger and stronger.
At the same time, Helian Shi's eyes were sinister as he mobilized all the miasma to attack the barrier.
"You can't stop it."
"The evil energy absorbed from tens of thousands of corpses has already allowed my miasma to reach its purest state. Every death will make me stronger."
Regarding his words, Bodhi, who was concentrating on releasing spiritual power to resist the miasma in the center of the formation, naturally could not split his attention to respond, but Pu Ran, who was guarding in the front, raised his lips and counterattacked:
"You're not good enough."
She drew her sword: "Send the person behind you."
Hearing this, Helian Shi chuckled, the light in his eyes frightening: "That depends on your ability."
Can we force that adult to take action?
