Chapter 1558 - 573: Wheel of Hell (Part 3)
The Golden Body Slave was extremely furious, shocked that Zhou Xuan’s thick skin could withstand even this,
the deception was exposed, yet Zhou Xuan could still claim to be the Future Buddha.
"Impersonating the World Honored One, such a grave sin; Evil Ghost, go and show that little swindler a lesson."
The eyes of the Golden Body Slave were bloodshot,
as the Evil Ghost Slave stepped forward, holding the mask, staring at Zhou Xuan.
"Zhou Xuan, your sins are grievous, I shall transcend you with the Wheel of Hell."
After speaking, the Evil Ghost Slave clasped his hands together, and the fierce ghost mask slowly rose,
in an instant, the entire Lotus Temple turned illusory, space began to twist, and the air was like frosted glass, Zhou Xuan felt as if people and things around him became indistinct.
A multitude of fierce ghosts wailed from all directions.
This was the ability of the Evil Ghost Slave, using a mask to create a vast, boundless Wheel of Hell.
He sought to trap Zhou Xuan in this hell, to prevent him from ever rising again.
At this time, as dusk fell, the light in Lotus Temple dimmed continuously, the wailing of ghostly spirits grew more unrestrained.
Yet Zhou Xuan coldly replied, "Six Great Buddha Slaves, though your skills are high, many experts from Ping Shui Prefecture are no weaklings either,
you take the ’Wheel of Hell,’ and battle me once, I am not afraid."
This was Zhou Xuan’s second tactic—as the colorful play had failed, it was time to face it head-on.
Beside Zhou Xuan, four deities of the Light Sky Dome stood, Yun Ziliang had entered the state of nine sticks of incense, plus the You Shen from Ping Shui Prefecture, and the protective power of the Zhou Family Willow Tree—they should have no fear against these six Buddha Slaves.
"My master, I, Qingyi, will assist you in breaking this hell."
The Green Robed Buddha immediately invoked two Prajnas, revealing his Green Robe Dharma form.
A giant Buddha, towering like a mountain, with unyielding resolve, advancing into the Wheel of Hell.
The Evil Ghost Slave, seeing this, chuckled mockingly, and said, "Green Robed Buddha, this Wheel of Hell was formed by the Ancient Buddha for beings unable to transcend, using Supreme Buddhism and great compassion,
though you have some insight into Buddhism, before the World Honored Old Buddha, you are not there yet,
though your desire to protect your master is urgent, do not go astray."
"Hmph, my master is the Future Buddha, your mere Wheel of Hell is nothing, it’s only that my master is too lazy to break the prison himself,
since he is unwilling to act, I, Qingyi, shall do it."
The Green Robed Buddha remained firm, believing Zhou Xuan to be the future Ancient Buddha.
His Dharma form moved closer to the Wheel of Hell,
and at that moment,
a clear sound of a cowbell rang out,
Zhou Lingyi arrived gracefully, holding a cowbell in one hand and a red umbrella in the other.
She said to the Green Robed Buddha, "Great Buddha, matters of the Zhou Family matter should be handled by ourselves."
With light steps, she entered the Wheel of Hell without hesitation or deliberation, nor any ritualist gestures, very naturally,
as naturally as entering a warm boudoir.
If the Green Robed Buddha were to enter the prison to break the array, the Evil Ghost Slave would not only be unafraid but would also mock him,
yet Zhou Lingyi’s entry caused the Evil Ghost Slave great concern.
When the Six Slaves first entered the temple, they had a brief encounter with Zhou Lingyi, and the Evil Ghost Slave had a deep impression of this current Class Leader of Zhou Family’s Troupe.
From his understanding of eerie spirits, he even felt that Zhou Lingyi seemed like a woman emerging from the Netherworld.
Now, this valiant woman, for Zhou Xuan, stepped once more into the Netherworld.
"There’s no reason to fear her, I did not fear even the Sky Dome Buddha, why fear a mere woman from the human world."
"Even if that woman is the Class Leader of Zhou Family’s Troupe."
The Evil Ghost Slave repeatedly rallied his own courage,
"Brother, this Wheel of Hell is the first Netherworld of Jing Country, far older than Soul Shepherd City."
Zhou Lingyi’s understanding of spirits was profound; she squinted, educating Zhou Xuan about this "Wheel of Hell."
"The Wheel of Hell divides the path of reincarnation into Six Paths, Beasts, Evil Ghosts, Asura... and so on."
"Thus, this Netherworld Prison is also called the Six Paths Reincarnation Prison."
In the "Wheel of Hell," Zhou Lingyi moved leisurely, each step as relaxed as spring strolling.
Zhou Xuan then asked, "Sister, since we are within the prison, how do we get out?"
"It’s not difficult."
Zhou Lingyi threw the cowbell, and like a lantern, it floated beside her shoulder,
then, holding Zhou Xuan’s hand, she led him in a particular direction,
as the siblings advanced, the bell kept ringing.
"Since it is the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the two of us shall tread once through all Six Paths; first the Beast Path, then Asura... until we reach the Heavenly Human Path, finding the gate of life in this prison."
After explaining this, Zhou Lingyi turned to the Evil Ghost Slave, "Buddha Slave Ghost, is my interpretation the way to break this prison..."
The Evil Ghost Slave: "..."
