Chapter 469 - 468: Great Ming King, Do You Really Want to Oppose Me? [First Update]
Unexpectedly, at this moment, five-colored divine light descended from the sky.
Like a cascade of waterfalls.
Blocking between the four women and Golden Cicada.
Hmm?
Golden Cicada’s eyes narrowed, looking towards the source of the five-colored divine light, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Great Ming King, are you intending to oppose this poor monk?"
The starry sky trembled.
Countless divine lights appeared, and amidst their flickering, a Peacock King, overshadowing the sky, full of vibrant plumage, slowly manifested.
"Another Quasi-Saint?"
Countless demonic creatures’ expressions changed, their eyes full of shock and anger.
Surprised at the number of people from the Grand Thousand Upper Realm who had come to the Outer Demon Race Land.
Angry that an Upper Realm Quasi-Saint dared to interfere in matters crucial to the Demon Race.
"Great Ming King!"
Lin Heng’s gaze was deep, increasingly sensing the severity of the situation.
And beside him, Xu Changqing.
Had already rushed towards the location where the witch Zi Xuan was swallowed by Golden Cicada.
Lin Heng did not entangle, nor would he intervene to stop.
On the contrary.
He also quickly headed there.
"I did not hold the matter against you last time, because both you and I are of the Buddha."
"Today, if you help outsiders against this poor monk."
"Are you not afraid of the Buddha’s wrath?"
Golden Cicada’s face was gloomy, his words carried a threatening tone, and his expression was extremely wary.
"Hehe."
Great Ming King chuckled indifferently, calmly saying, "Merit Buddha, don’t be quick to accuse me of such a grave sin, I am here not to deal with you, but merely to compete for Nuwa’s opportunity."
"Having been in the Quasi-Saint Realm for too long, I too wish to see the view above, I suppose this is not an unreasonable desire, is it?"
Her feathers quivered, the five-colored divine light cascaded down onto the altar behind her, enveloping the four women within.
Golden Cicada squinted: "Wanting to compete for the opportunity is understandable."
"But this opportunity is special, it was prepared by Nuwa for her own return, outsiders cannot acquire it."
"The Outer Demon Race has no Quasi-Saints targeting this, do you think it’s because they do not wish to? It’s simply because they cannot obtain it!"
"Oh?" Great Ming King sneered, "Since outsiders cannot obtain it, why did you take the risk to come here?"
Golden Cicada replied proudly: "I have a secret technique taught by the World Honored One that can intercept the opportunity."
He then softened his tone slightly: "It is understandable if the Great Ming King wishes to compete for the saintly seat, everyone does, but there is no need to contend with this poor monk."
"On the contrary, if the Great Ming King and this poor monk share the same heart and mind, once I succeed, I will naturally help the Great Ming King to compete for the other seats."
"After all, the positions of saints in the mortal world are not just one vacancy."
"Why must you and I compete, only to disappoint the World Honored One?"
He kindly advised, trying to draw the Great Ming King back to the same front.
However, Great Ming King’s words made Golden Cicada’s face darken as water.
"What if I also have a secret technique to intercept the opportunity?"
Golden Cicada’s eyes instantly turned cold: "So, you are determined to oppose this poor monk?"
Great Ming King raised her head: "Not necessarily to oppose, at least, you can assist me, once I succeed, I can also help you compete for the other seats."
"Do you agree?"
She smiled mischievously, returning the same rhetoric to Golden Cicada.
Golden Cicada’s face immediately turned livid.
Right at that moment, a crimson celestial sword slashed towards him, bringing an aura that collapsed the void.
It was Xu Changqing arriving, directly attacking Golden Cicada, forcing him to release the witch Zi Xuan.
Golden Cicada showed no expression, summoning a Nine Grade Lotus Platform.
Once the Lotus Platform appeared.
The entire Outer Demon Land resounded with obscure Brahma Sounds.
Countless scriptures descended from the sky like a torrential rain, like spring buds sprouting from the earth.
Joined above and below, drawing a prison, trapping Xu Changqing within.
Xu Changqing deployed a Quasi-Saint Technique, attempting to break out forcibly.
However, the Nine Grade Lotus Platform flew above, casting countless divine lights, adhering to the cage, making it unbreakable.
Great Ming King watched this scene quietly, only when Xu Changqing was trapped, did she coldly laugh and say:
"Tathagata truly spares no effort for you, actually bestowing upon you the Nine Grade Lotus Platform, once invincible before he became a Saint."
"No wonder you dared to come here to seize the opportunity."
"However..."
Great Ming King curled her lips into a cold arc: "Using the Nine Grade Lotus Platform to trap him, what will you compete with me now?"
Her entire plumage stood on end, vibrant, the radiant light coloring the entire starry sky brilliantly.
Golden Cicada dared not slack, unfolding a pair of translucent wings, solemnly said: "You are a Quasi-Saint, and so am I."
"In a single battle, victory is not certain either!"
As soon as the words were spoken.
The power of merit and the Qi of creation that permeated the starry sky began to descend upon Golden Cicada.
"Has the opportunity begun?!"
Golden Cicada rejoiced, but his expression became more vigilant.
Seeing countless radiances converging towards Golden Cicada, Great Ming King immediately unfurled her feathers, the five-colored divine light directly attacking Golden Cicada, simultaneously loudly saying:
"Witch Zi Xuan, I’m holding him off from refining you, you must exert some effort inside as well."
"Otherwise, everything you have done will truly be for someone else to benefit!"
A cold snort sounded from within Golden Cicada.
It was witch Zi Xuan.
Of course, she knew Great Ming King wasn’t a good element either, yet compared to the impending crisis, the immediate escape was the utmost priority.
Without hesitation.
As the heavenly opportunity bit by bit, flowed along Golden Cicada’s body towards her.
She absorbed and decisively propelled it outward again.
Golden Cicada’s expression subtly changed, urging mana, attempting to refine witch Zi Xuan.
Helpless against Great Ming King’s relentless assault, the five-colored divine light continuously brushed over, forcing him to first deal with Great Ming King.
Though the internal commotion wasn’t too loud.
It was enough to affect Golden Cicada.
In a Quasi-Sage battle, unable to respond fully, the outcome was predictable.
Even if Golden Cicada’s wings swept, his divine power awesome, shattering the heaven and earth, he still struggled to withstand Great Ming King’s raindrop-like onslaught.
Soon caught off guard, Golden Cicada was hit by the five-colored divine light, dimming half of his body.
Seeing Great Ming King attack again.
Golden Cicada, despite his great reluctance, could only grit his teeth and say:
"Very well, this opportunity, I won’t compete for it!"
After speaking, he spat out.
Witch Zi Xuan, enveloped by a halo, fell unharmed.
Great Ming King’s eyes were quick to act, with a shake of her feathers, a divine light transformed into a rainbow bridge, directly sweeping Witch Zi Xuan behind, entrapping her with the other four women in the divine light.
Seeing this, Golden Cicada decisively recalled the Nine Grade Lotus Platform.
After Xu Changqing was freed, he merely gave Golden Cicada a cold glance, then without a word, charged towards witch Zi Xuan.
The crimson celestial sword descended.
Directly cleaving the five-colored divine light.
And Great Ming King, surprisingly, did not interfere.
"What do you mean by this? Is it truly just to prevent me from obtaining the opportunity?" Golden Cicada questioned angrily.
But Great Ming King turned towards a distant place and said, "Princess Iron Fan, Immortal Court Daoist Lord, once the celestial light rain completely enters witch Zi Xuan’s body, it will become unstoppable."
