Chapter 584 - 578: Demon King Bosun
Once the World Honored proves the Dao, this world will become his territory.
Then, if they intend to farm this world, the World Honored certainly won’t agree.
Stopping the World Honored from proving the Dao would bring them no benefit at all.
Helping the World Honored prove the Dao ensures the safety of their representatives and the continuation of their sects, meaning they share this world with the World Honored.
Of course, without a doubt, the World Honored takes the major share, while they receive the smaller portion.
Right now, the choice given to the Demon Lord and Buddha is either follow the World Honored and drink soup or get nothing at all.
The choice is obvious.
They have coveted this world for a long time.
Previously, they tried repeatedly but achieved nothing.
Now, no matter how they see it, this is an excellent opportunity for them.
First, insert their sect into the world, then seek thriving development.
Buddha and Demon Lord exchanged a glance and nodded in agreement, "Agreed!"
"This matter, agreed!"
Even though they agreed, the World Honored did not speak, remaining quietly awaiting.
This matter is not merely about agreeing.
Besides agreeing, you must take actual action!
Seeing the World Honored’s expression, Buddha and Demon Lord understood his intention.
Buddha pondered for a moment, then said, "I’ll let my four great disciples follow your orders."
After Buddha spoke, Demon Lord also said, "My four Great Demon Kings will likewise follow your orders."
Buddha’s four disciples and Demon Lord’s four Great Demon Kings are Tier Two Peak Experts.
Though not as formidable as the Elder in Wa Huang’s service, they are still top experts among Tier Two Peak Experts.
After considering for a moment, the World Honored found that having these eight Tier Two Peak powerhouses was temporarily sufficient.
"Thank you both!"
"The day I prove my Dao will be the day you establish your sect." The World Honored thanked Buddha and Demon Lord.
However, Buddha’s eyes flashed with cunning as he smiled like an old fox, saying, "There’s no rush to establish the sect."
"We should prepare first, and only establish the sect after the worlds have completely merged and stabilized."
Buddha was indeed an old fox, as although the myriad races of the Mysterious World could generate Power of Faith,
the Human Race’s faith is the most abundant, the most devout.
Thus, naturally, he would wait until the two worlds fully merged before establishing the sect, maximizing the benefits.
At this moment, the World Honored truly had limited options.
"Agreed!" The World Honored replied.
Here, the World Honored, Buddha, and Demon Lord, two Primordial Spirits, formed an alliance.
Meanwhile, Elder Bai and their Anti-Buddha Alliance were also established.
...
...
Mysterious World.
Nine Bends Mountain.
This is the Cyan Lion Spirit’s domain, the very Cyan Lion Spirit taught a lesson by Lin Yuan, beaten as a warning to others.
Although the Peacock Great Ming King healed the Cyan Lion Spirit’s wounds,
his physical injuries were easy to heal, but the injuries to his spirit are hard to cure!
For the Cyan Lion Spirit, the shame of being beaten by Lin Yuan was no less than the Jade Emperor being beaten by the monkey.
After Lin Yuan’s thrashing, Cyan Lion Spirit developed depression.
To put it simply, he was beaten into despondency.
After the Anti-Buddha Alliance meeting ended, the Cyan Lion Spirit returned to his domain, spending his days drinking away his sorrows.
"Lin Yuan! Lin Yuan, you were too harsh!"
"Look at how you’ve beaten me, which of my nine heads did you spare!"
...
...
Drunkenly muttering, Cyan Lion Spirit suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and in the next moment, blood sprayed out as he saw his headless body.
Cyan Lion Spirit: "???"
Cyan Lion Spirit was bewildered, finally realizing his head had been chopped off.
With Cyan Lion Spirit’s head severed, a humanoid figure emerged from the void.
With a vicious face, dark skin, and a fiery aura emanating from his body,
the figure looked at Cyan Lion Spirit’s corpse, slightly frowning, and asked in confusion, "Why is there no soul?"
The figure was none other than Demon King Bosun, under the Demon Lord, leader of the Four Great Demon Kings.
After the Demon Lord loaned them to the World Honored, the World Honored instructed them to kill these Tier Two experts.
The first target Demon King Bosun chose was the Cyan Lion Spirit.
One could say, this Cyan Lion Spirit was truly unlucky.
When Demon King Bosun attacked, he was careful only to sever Cyan Lion Spirit’s head without harming his soul.
He expected the soul to emerge once the head was cut off.
Yet, Cyan Lion Spirit’s soul did not vacate his body.
In truth, Demon King Bosun didn’t misjudge.
It was due to Cyan Lion Spirit’s unique nature.
Cyan Lion Spirit had nine heads; other than the main central head, the remaining eight weren’t fatal if cut off.
When Cyan Lion Spirit transformed into human form, he topped his body with one of the other eight heads, not his central one.
The head cut off by Demon King Bosun was one of those other eight.
Thus, Cyan Lion Spirit survived.
Seeing Demon King Bosun question why his soul hadn’t appeared, Cyan Lion Spirit knew he couldn’t continue pretending.
If he kept pretending, Demon King Bosun might discover something amiss.
In that swift moment, as Demon King Bosun turned away from Cyan Lion Spirit,
a new head instantly grew on Cyan Lion Spirit’s headless body.
At the same time, a large machete appeared in Cyan Lion Spirit’s hand.
"Whoosh!"
The machete, with a fierce wind sound, struck Demon King Bosun’s forehead.
However, as the machete touched Bosun’s forehead, his body transformed into flames.
His body turned into a dark flame, engulfing the machete.
Under the blaze, the machete softened, then melted into molten iron.
"Sizzle."
"Sizzle, sizzle."
The melted machete dripped onto the ground, corroding the surface.
Cyan Lion Spirit shivered, quickly backing away and asking, "Who are you?"
"Why did you ambush me?"
Cyan Lion Spirit examined Demon King Bosun thoroughly, confirming he didn’t know this Tier Two Peak Powerhouse.
"Could it be one of the Outer World People that Peacock Great Ming King mentioned?" Cyan Lion Spirit thought with a frown.
Tier Two Peak Experts within the Mysterious World are limited in number; although relationships are varied, they at least recognize each other.
They had never seen the person before them, which suggested he was likely an outsider, like the Elder in Wa Huang’s encounter.
