Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

"Yin Celestial Son!"

"It’s you! It’s really you!" Buddha shouted into the surrounding void.

Through the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mark left on the Peacock Great Ming King, Yin Celestial Son could clearly hear Buddha’s shout.

In the Underworld, the corners of Yin Celestial Son’s mouth curled into a smile.

Rather than saying Buddha discovered it was Yin Celestial Son obstructing him, it’s better said that Yin Celestial Son let Buddha discover him.

Until now, everything has been within Yin Celestial Son’s plan.

"Buddha!"

"You do have some sharp eyes. I’ve hidden so well, yet you managed to find me!" Yin Celestial Son’s voice also echoed around.

Yin Celestial Son was casting spells from afar, which could be described as strong outwardly but weak inwardly.

Once engaged in battle, Buddha would quickly discover the mystery behind it.

By then, if Buddha wished to leave, Yin Celestial Son really couldn’t stop him.

Seizing the opportunity now, naturally, Yin Celestial Son was willing to waste some words with Buddha to delay matters.

Actually, at this time, Buddha was also uneasy.

Having just hastily exchanged blows, upon initial contact, Buddha hadn’t discovered that Yin Celestial Son was casting spells from afar.

Buddha thought Yin Celestial Son’s true form was hidden in the void, thus he was extra cautious.

He was afraid that tearing through the void to leave, Yin Celestial Son might ambush him from behind.

"Yin Celestial Son, why are you obstructing me?" Buddha said coldly.

At this moment, Buddha was also pondering why Yin Celestial Son would stop him?

Buddha had also considered if Wa Huang and Yin Celestial Son had joined forces?

However, he changed his mind again and thought Wa Huang wouldn’t be so foolish.

Precisely because he couldn’t be certain what was going on, Buddha spoke to test.

Yin Celestial Son discerned the probing in Buddha’s words and immediately chuckled coldly, "Haha!"

"What? You can join forces with the Demon Lord, but I can’t join forces with Wa Huang."

"Wa Huang is a smart person; she knows the principle of pacifying internal matters before external ones."

It seemed Yin Celestial Son was afraid Buddha wouldn’t believe him, so he continued to fabricate, "Wa Huang and I made an agreement!"

"After we join forces to deal with you and the Demon Lord, she will become my Dao companion, and we will together govern the void and the world in the future."

"Void and the world are yin and yang; the fusion of yin and yang will allow us both to break through."

Initially, when Yin Celestial Son began to speak, Buddha did not believe him.

Because Buddha didn’t believe Wa Huang could be so dumb.

However, when Yin Celestial Son uttered the latter part of his words, Buddha began to believe a little.

Because Wa Huang did have a precedent for throwing herself at others.

Back then, Wa Huang had a crush on the Human King and nearly fell for him.

Unfortunately, the Human King preferred a frail fox spirit over Wa Huang.

Outraged, it was then that Wa Huang allied with them to deal with the Human King.

That Wa Huang could throw herself at the Human King back then, her throwing herself at Yin Celestial Son now seemed logical.

Thinking of this, unease brewed in Buddha’s heart.

This heavy feeling seemed to signal to Buddha that the Demon Lord was about to encounter trouble.

"This is bad!"

"The Demon Lord can’t hold on!" Buddha thought to himself and immediately roared angrily, "Yin Celestial Son, you can’t stop me!"

Saying this, Buddha’s body shook, and the vast Buddha’s Radiance spread around, searching for Yin Celestial Son’s hiding place.

Upon witnessing this, the true form of Yin Celestial Son in the Underworld realized his disguise was about to be exposed.

Once Buddha’s Radiance spread around without finding him, even a fool could realize he was casting spells from afar.

Once discovered to be casting spells from afar, Buddha would no longer have any apprehensions.

However, for Yin Celestial Son, it was already sufficient.

He had already stopped Buddha for a considerable time, from being banished to the void by Wa Huang up until now, which was almost an hour.

An hour; presumably Wa Huang and the Demon Lord would soon decide the winner?

...

...

"It has been an hour!"

"Damn, Buddha, you bastard, why aren’t you back yet!"

"Damn it, he hasn’t truly run away, has he?" In Wa Huang’s Palace, the Demon Lord frantically defended against Wa Huang’s attacks while mumbling in his heart.

Mud figurine Di Xin could only last for half an hour; at this moment, it had already turned to dust.

The Demon Lord used many trump cards to barely endure the combined assault of Mud figurine Di Xin and Wa Huang for a full half an hour.

Wa Huang used Mud figurine Di Xin to force out many of the Demon Lord’s trump cards.

The fact is, Wa Huang hasn’t even used much of her own methods?

With all his trump cards revealed, the Demon Lord faced Wa Huang, who was essentially at full strength, for he could barely resist.

Now, the Demon Lord could only manage to defend himself but was powerless to counterattack.

The Demon Lord was covered in wounds at this moment, in a dire state.

His left arm had been severed at the root, chopped by Mud figurine Di Xin.

A scar ran from his forehead down to the corner of his mouth, also inflicted by Mud figurine Di Xin.

On his chest, there was a gaping scratch made by a beast summoned by Wa Huang using the Black Banner.

Most critically, the Demon Lord’s True Spirit had become somewhat unstable.

With such injuries, the Demon Lord would need at least tens of years, if not a century, to recover.

Based on injury alone, the Demon Lord’s injuries were already heavier than Xi Huang’s.

Reasonably, if Wa Huang’s sole aim was to avenge Xi Huang, she should have stopped.

Yet, Buddha hadn’t returned.

Without Buddha returning, Wa Huang couldn’t stop.

At this time, Wa Huang was also hesitating whether to kill the Demon Lord.

With deep-seated hatred already forged, if she let the Demon Lord go, he and Buddha might join forces again, and she’d suffer greatly.

But killing the Demon Lord might not necessarily be a good thing either.

For now, Buddha was actually a vital balance between Wa Huang and the Demon Lord.

At this moment, both Wa Huang and the Demon Lord wanted Buddha to return.

Vengeance had been exacted, the purpose of intimidating the Monkey King had been achieved, Buddha’s return would allow Wa Huang to back down gracefully.

For the Demon Lord, Wa Huang was showing no mercy; only Buddha’s return would offer him a chance at survival.

Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives.

At this moment, Buddha tore through the void, returning to Wa Huang’s Palace.

Buddha arrived at Wa Huang’s Palace and saw the Demon Lord, battered beyond recognition, immediately helping him fend off Wa Huang’s attack: "Wa Huang, that’s enough!"

Buddha was in peak condition, coupled with the half-crippled Demon Lord.

If it came down to a fight, even with a home-field advantage, Wa Huang might not necessarily have an upper hand.

"Buddha, why are you only just arriving?"

"This woman is out for blood; she truly wants my life!" The Demon Lord said through gritted teeth.

If possible, the Demon Lord truly wished to team up with Buddha to deal with Wa Huang.

From the Demon Lord’s injuries, Buddha could also see Wa Huang was indeed striking with lethal intent.

"I was obstructed by Yin Celestial Son!" After explaining to the Demon Lord, Buddha fixed his piercing gaze on Wa Huang, with a murderous tone saying: "You truly harbor the intent to kill the Demon Lord; it seems what Yin Celestial Son said is indeed true!"
