The speaker was a powerful Demon Immortal.
He sat sprawled out on the deck throne of the star pirate flagship, clad in bronze armor, his muscles knotted and covered with scars, white hair like tangled grass, massive tusks nacing, his race unknown.
The Void Star Thieves were a group of dangerous individuals, burning, killing, and plundering with ease, gathering and roaring, even daring to provoke the Starry Sky Evil Gods.
This demon was nad Red Deer, as the leader of this legion, not only was his Tao Cultivation profound, but the tangible evil qi emanating from him even distorted the surrounding space.
If an ordinary Immortal of insufficient cultivation were to look directly at this demon, they would only see a sky full of black smoke and blood-red eyes. It was this person that Zhang Kui sensed as the expert during his infiltration.
"Yes, Lord Red Deer!"
The star thieves below imdiately beca excited and began to manipulate the array.
Soon, this ancient giant Immortal Ship began shooting out large stone spheres, flying densely like a rain waterfall towards the Buddha Land.
Each of these stone spheres was engraved with blood-colored demon script, emitting eerie vibrations that attracted each other, causing starships along the way to avoid them like encountering ghosts.
After leaving the Star Thief Fleet, the vibrations emitted by the stone spheres grew stronger.
Buzz!
Suddenly, huge circular holes appeared in the void, each with a diater of several thousand ters. First, a bleak Immortal Light spread out, followed by a gigantic creature poking its head out, layered black scales without eyes, lotus-shaped enormous mouthparts rotating like a whirlpool.
Such commotion naturally drew attention.
Although the Deceitful Immortals found it strange, they watched coldly.
They could see that the star thieves were returning defeated, probably furious and wanting to act against the Buddha Land. However, on the Buddha Land was the outsider True Monarch Yinghai; if he died, so be it. It was better than offending these madn.
Inside the flagship of the Celestial Craft Immortal Realm, there was chaos.
"Not good, they’re Void Worms!"
"One is deadly; how can there be so many!"
"Master Liansheng is still on the Buddha Land, destroy those baits quickly!"
If the Underworld’s strangeness was a major problem in the cosmos, forming Black Tides and corroding space, attacking living beings at will, then the Star Sky Worms were troubles no less than them.
The Star Sky Worms have an ancient history, existing alongside Star Beasts.
So powerful beings speculate they are naturally generated by the cosmos, like a corpse decomposing. As the cosmos gradually decays, Star Sky Worms will also reproduce in large numbers.
These worms possess no wisdom, only the instinct of hunger.
As larvae, they hide inside teors, becoming a delicious delicacy. When they fall into a star and devour the Star Core, they rapidly grow and eventually beco gigantic creatures that tear apart stars.
Each ti they devour a star, the carapace of a Star Sky Worm hardens a bit. These Void Worms have survived for thousands of years, immune to all techniques, traversing the void as if nothing, even the forces of an Evil God reluctant to provoke them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the Celestial Craft Immortal Realm’s star ship in the shape of a sword emitted grand Sword Light, those stone spheres were instantly shattered, and the Void Worms disappeared after emitting a trendous roar.
"Madn, these star thieves are all madn!"
The leaders of the Celestial Craft Immortal Realm flagship were furious.
"Those stone spheres are bait refined using Reincarnation, a technique of the Beast Taming Immortal Realm. The star thieves lured the Void Worms here to destroy the Buddha Land."
"Hmph, acting recklessly. Whether it’s the Celestial Craft Immortal Realm or the Star Thief Star Reef, both aren’t far away. If the Void Worms discover them, it’ll be another disaster!"
The leaders imdiately communicated with the star thieves.
"Red Deer, our people are still up there. Do you want to start a war?"
"Heh heh..."
The Star Thief Demon Immortal Red Deer let out a cold laugh, "Seizing opportunities, living and dying on our own terms, do you expect to deliver a congratulatory gift?"
"If you want to start a war, then let’s fight!"
The leaders exchanged sharp words, with a thousand starships at full alert.
Of course, the leaders were mainly bluffing. The three faction leaders had already reached an understanding, given the Black Ming King threat, no large-scale conflict would occur before seizing the Immortal King Cave Heaven.
...
Clouds swirled, Buddha Light faintly visible.
While disputes arose outside, Zhang Kui had already followed the old monk Rama into a strange space.
This is a giant cave, with various Buddha statues carved all around, and the imnse Buddha Power has almost solidified.
"Quite a remarkable technique..."
Zhang Kui used the Observing Through a Wall Immortal Skill to probe, and instantly understood.
This is a space carved out from the void, supported by Buddha Power, creating its own rules, equivalent to an independent little cosmos.
This technique is not uncommon. The sa principle applies to the Pot Heaven Skill’s personal space, but for a space this vast, he had only seen it in the Netherworld Realm’s Netherworld and the Immortal King Tower’s void.
"Sect Leader Zhang, don’t laugh..."
The old monk Rama slightly shook his head, "This was completed by countless monks together. Ultimately, it is the power of the Paradise Realm. Now that the Buddha Land has turned into the Demon Realm, I’m afraid it won’t hold out much longer."
With that, he introduced while guiding Zhang Kui forward.
"The Buddhist Secret Cave has four layers: one for Divine Materials, one for Spirit dicine, and the other two for Buddhist Scriptures and Buddha Treasures..."
Despite its ancient history, the Holy Silence Pure Land stood no chance against the Black Ming King, but its collections over millions of years far surpass the Celestial Essence Star Realm.
Fallen Crystals were once considered a Supre Treasure on the Celestial Essence Star. Zhang Kui and Zhu Sheng even fought life and death battles with demons for a small piece, but here they are all refined, filling a cave thousands of ters in circumference.
Treasures like the Cave Heaven Divine Crystal and Reincarnation Fragnt are also abundant. It seems this Buddha Land, mindful of compassion, has done its share of plundering.
Even more satisfying to Zhang Kui is the Red Crystal from the Red Pigeon Divine Hall, piled high, indicating the Holy Silence Pure Land must have eliminated at least a dozen Red Pigeon Divine Sons.
Besides, sacred materials like the Sun Divine Wood and Star Cores, washed by the Evil Light from voids for millions of years, are in full variety.
Although the Celestial Essence Star Realm gathers Spiritual Qi and produces Divine Materials, these true star-born treasures are limited and irreplaceable.
Zhang Kui bead with joy. With these materials, the giant artifact refining for the Celestial Essence Star Realm’s future poses no problem.
He already had a plan: to refine ten or so Star Shining Thunderfire Shuttles, possibly adopting the Celestial Craft Immortal Realm’s concept to create a Combined Magical Treasure...
Though many ideas filled his mind, his hands didn’t slow. With a wave of his hand, the cave filled with Divine Materials instantly emptied, entering the Immortal King Tower’s void.
Initially, the old monk Rama was indifferent, but gradually he beca alard.
The quantity of these materials was astounding. He initially thought Zhang Kui could only take a portion, but the other kept retrieving without end.
Though the Buddhist Sect possesses Divine Powers, if storage magical treasures of such scale were available, why would a Buddhist Secret Cave have been specially built?
This Sect Leader Zhang must possess a Supre Treasure!
After the first layer was entirely swept clean, the old monk Rama couldn’t hold back any longer and asked, "Sect Leader, those Buddhist Scriptures and Buddha Treasures are useless to you. Could you help this old monk take them as well?"
He was sowhat thrilled inside. If he could take all the Buddha Treasures and scriptures on this trip, there might be hope for the resurgence of the Holy Silence Pure Land.
"Haha, easy enough."
Zhang Kui agreed heartily.
Rama’s expression relaxed slightly, and he graciously introduced, "Sect Leader Zhang, the Buddha Land naturally has Spirit Fields for production, plus all the Divine Materials acquired from various star explorations, all refined into Spirit dicine for storage. The Buddha Land once had the dicine Master Glaze Temple skilled in refining Treasure dicine..."
Although the old monk Rama spoke highly of it, after Zhang Kui investigated, he was a bit disappointed.
Indeed, there were many Treasure dicines, so even born with Buddha Light Children, sitting cross-legged in ditation amid light and shadow, highly mystical.
But compared to the Spirit dicines recorded in the Celestial Gang and Earthly Fiends Skill, they were far inferior. It’s a pity for those Divine dicine materials.
Subsequent Buddhist Scriptures and Buddha Treasures were also packed up in one go.
Zhang Kui understood why the old monk Rama sought his help. The Holy Silence Pure Land had refined many giant Buddha Treasures, with Buddha statues as large as mountains to suppress the four directions, and sets of hundreds of Buddhist Bells—each bell room-sized, capable of dissipating the Vengeful Qi of an entire Star Zone when combined...
Of course, these Buddha Treasures required the True Buddha to communicate with the Paradise Realm for use. Zhang Kui couldn’t spare the ti to inspect them closely and promptly stored everything in the Immortal King Tower.
In no ti, the treasure vault was completely cleared out.
Zhang Kui was about to leave when he noticed the old monk Rama’s hesitant expression. Tentatively, the monk asked, "Sect Leader Zhang, would you be willing to enter the fifth layer of the treasure vault?"
"Oh, there’s a fifth layer?"
Zhang Kui’s eyes narrowed with interest.
The old monk Rama took a deep breath and said, "I dare not hide it, Sect Leader. The void-wandering Holy Silence Pure Land encountered many sinister occurrences over thousands of years—so were undead Evil God bodies, so utterly incomprehensible, only suppressible with the vast Buddha Power of the Paradise Realm."
"I have seen that the Black Ming King is skilled in corpse refinent. If these fall into his hands, it might spell disaster..."
Rama was burdened, but he didn’t notice Zhang Kui’s eyes shining brighter.
