Chapter 581: Chapter 35: Visiting Houtu, the Secret of Fu Xi, a Dao Fruit on the Verge of Death

"Reasonable."

The Buddha Mother slightly raised his eyelids, a flash of killing intent in his eyes. The two Ancient Human Emperors, Xuanyuan and Shennong, felt as if they had been plunged into an icy cellar. Under the shroud of that bone-chilling killing intent, their skin began to crack, spilling Daluo blood!

Emperor Fengdu and the Ancestral Dragon didn’t fare much better. They coughed up mouthfuls of blood, their gazes turning unfocused. The gap between a Daluo and a Dao Fruit cultivator was simply far, far too vast...

Without a Dao Fruit-level artifact in hand, an ordinary Daluo couldn’t even withstand the killing intent of a Dao Fruit cultivator!

The atmosphere instantly dropped to a freezing point. The Daluos of the Buddhist Sect all wore faint smiles, as did the Buddha Mother. He glanced sideways and said:

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, what are your thoughts?"

"You decide," Taiyi replied evasively, his gaze sweeping up and down Daoist Monarch Profound Clarity and Profound Yellow Emperor Venerable, a look of inquiry in his eyes.

’In a situation like this, Lu Xuan, how will you break free?’

’Will you summon The Three Pristine Ones?’

’But would The Three Pristine Ones really intervene personally for a few unrelated Daluos?’

An intrigued expression appeared on Taiyi’s face. The more difficult Lu Xuan’s situation became, the better his own position would be...

At this moment, the Buddha Mother raised his eyelids again, this time looking at Lu Xuan with a soft chuckle.

"Supreme Profound Clarity, if you personally execute Xuanyuan and Shennong, and slaughter Emperor Fengdu and the Ancestral Dragon, we can let this matter rest for today. How about it?"

Lu Xuan was speechless, then let out a laugh born of anger.

"Buddha Mother, who gave you the audacity to speak to me like this? I am standing right in front of you. Do you dare to make a move?"

As he spoke, he advanced step by step with the Profound Yellow Pagoda above him, pointing upward.

"My master is watching this place. Are you planning to use your greater status to bully the weak?"

The Buddha Mother’s eyelid twitched violently. He was seething with rage but truly didn’t dare to act. He simply offered a compassionate smile and muttered to himself:

"The Taishang Lineage does not protect its disciples... Heh!"

The sarcasm in his voice was palpable.

But Lu Xuan’s expression turned serious as he spoke calmly:

"You are correct. The Taishang Lineage does not protect its disciples, so there is no need for my master to intervene today... Didn’t you want a truce, Buddha Mother? That is not impossible."

"Oh?"

The Buddha Mother, intrigued, chuckled cheerfully.

"Little friend Profound Clarity, are you willing to execute those four Daluos now?"

"Execute four Daluos?"

Lu Xuan considered this seriously for a moment, then nodded.

"That works."

A commotion swept through the entire Emperor Pass.

The smile on the Buddha Mother’s face widened. He extended a hand.

"Please."

"Alright."

Lu Xuan nodded decisively, raised his left hand, and gently pressed down.

The Four Immortal Slaying Swords pressed down in unison.

PSHFFT!!

Amidst the sounds of shattering and miserable cries, the four Daluos suppressed beneath the Four Immortal Slaying Swords were pierced through. As the Immortal Slaying Sword Array rotated, its power was unparalleled!

The four Daluos, led by the Innocent Ancient Buddha, had fallen.

The Celestial Vault fell silent.

No one had expected Lu Xuan to act this way. Emperor Fengdu and the others were dumbfounded. The Daluos of the Buddhist Sect were both shocked and enraged. Great Sun Buddha’s eyes were bloodshot, and even Taiyi looked utterly astonished...

As for the Buddha Mother, he was clearly stunned for a moment before erupting in fury.

"How dare you!"

His Buddhist voice surged like a tide, crashing against Lu Xuan, only to be completely blocked by the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda above his head!

Grasping the Heaven-Opening Banner, Lu Xuan advanced step by step. Amidst countless stunned gazes, he came to a stop before the Buddha Mother and looked directly into his eyes.

"You’re angry? Then... are you going to execute me?"

The Buddha Mother’s chest heaved violently, but a deep sense of powerlessness washed over him. Never mind that the one in Douluo Palace was likely watching like a hungry tiger,

the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda alone was not something he could break!

After a long moment,

the Buddha Mother suppressed his anger and said coldly:

"Supreme Profound Clarity, you are very good."

He reached out a palm, bypassing Lu Xuan, and pressed down toward the Ancestral Dragon and Emperor Fengdu. The expressions of the two changed. They wanted to flee, but they were locked in place by the Dao Fruit Killing Intent, unable to move!

Profound Yellow Emperor Venerable, with a defiant glare, stepped in front of the two Daluos. Facing the Buddha Mother’s great hand, he grinned.

"Does the Buddha Mother wish to execute this Emperor?"

The Buddha Mother sneered. ’Trying to frame me?’

His great hand seemed illusory as it passed through the body of the Profound Yellow Emperor Venerable and continued to press down. Emperor Fengdu and the Ancestral Dragon began to cough up blood again.

Their bodies, along with the imprints of countless years, began to crack, on the verge of shattering!

"Continue."

Lu Xuan raised his eyes. The Heaven-Opening Banner in his hand, however, swept toward several Daluos of the Buddhist Sect. He unleashed a true Killing Skill, fully activating the Creation Jade Scroll.

Vast Chaos Sword Qi transformed into a great tide, like a cascading galaxy, pouring down from above!

The Buddha Mother laughed in spite of himself.

"Naive."

In the next instant, those few Daluos from the Buddhist Sect vanished into thin air, reappearing behind the Buddha Mother. As the Chaos Sword Qi slashed down, the Buddha Mother stood firm, neither swaying nor dodging.

"Supreme Profound Clarity, you are still too naive. The might of a Dao Fruit is far beyond what you can imagine..."

DONG!

The Chaos Sword Qi slammed into the Buddha Mother’s nonchalant face.

BANG!!

Before countless stunned gazes, the Buddha Mother was sent flying backward into the river of Years, his body cracking and his Buddha Foundation shattering. A single blow had nearly killed him.

The entire scene fell into dead silence.

"It didn’t kill him..."

Lu Xuan muttered to himself, clutching the Heaven-Opening Banner.

"Then let’s try that again."

The Great Banner trembled, its power magnified by the might of a Dao Fruit. The Great Heaven and Earth quaked!
