Chapter 170: Chapter 167: Great Majestic Dragon Gaze Chapter 170: Chapter 167: Great Majestic Dragon Gaze Peng Demon King, seeking to investigate the cause, ascended to Mount Meru and killed the Mountain-guarding Arhat but was entangled by the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva. After a fierce battle, the Celestial Dragon proved to be slightly more formidable, sending Peng Demon King crashing into the ground. Had Enlightenment not arrived in time, Peng would likely have met his doom and turned to ash.

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva brought his palms together, blocking in front of Enlightenment.

Enlightenment spun the Seven Stars Sword into a Sword Flower and thrust it forward, piercing the void that had turned into brocade with a whoosh.

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon clenched his fists and struck a mighty and domineering Fist Seal, which collided with the Sword Qi, creating a loud explosion.

Enlightenment thought to himself, “This Great Mighty Celestial Dragon is truly formidable! Without using Thunder and Lightning to refine my Primordial Spirit first, I stand no chance against him.”

The prowess of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva was unparalleled. With the Dragon Elephant Bloodline of the Buddhist sect and being known as the first Venerable of the Western Heaven, he could shake Mount Sumeru with his physical strength alone! Although he was only at the Third Layer of the Great Luo Golden Immortal’s Indestructible Realm, he could still fight and even overpower ordinary Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal experts, forcing them to the ground.

His methods were somewhat similar to those of the Shaman Gods of ancient times, fierce and domineering, with a powerful body that could burst any Divine Skills with a single punch!

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon, having sustained a sneak attack by Peng Demon King, was now furiously fighting. His punches, enhanced by the Treasure Wheel atop his head, intensified his punching power, releasing punch after punch transforming into fierce tigers, Divine Dragons, and qilins.

Enlightenment wielded his sword, deploying various Ultimate Techniques of Swordsmanship; the Rising Sun Sword Technique, Moon Shadow Sword Technique, Phantom Star Sword Technique, and many Shushan Sword Techniques, yet none could withstand the attack!

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon—the epitome of brute force—swung wildly, shaking heaven and Earth with his blows!

Enlightenment cursed, “Great Peng, if not now, then when?”

The dazed Peng Demon King finally regained consciousness and crawled out from the ground, only to see the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon still entangled with Enlightenment, who was now clearly at a disadvantage. If the battle continued this way, Enlightenment would surely be injured! This Celestial Dragon, among the Bodhisattvas, ranked extremely high in combat power. Though only at the Third Heaven of Great Luo, he could still contend with a Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal.

Spitting blood, Peng Demon King shouted and magical runes of the Witch Clan appeared all over his body, and he charged again with his spear towards the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon.

The two brothers together barely managed to cope with the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon.

“Great Peng! While we live, there is hope. Now our strength is weak, why seek death at Mount Meru? Let’s enhance our Mana and then return to seek the truth,” cried Enlightenment.

This time, Peng Demon King also felt he had been too impulsive. It was one thing for him to perish, but if his brothers were to fall at Mount Meru as well, how could he live with himself?

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon snorted, “Only now you realize Mount Meru is not easy to leave! Too late! Mount Meru is not a place you can simply come and go as you please.”

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon then formed a Lion Seal, an Esoteric Sect Dharma Seal, transforming his fist into a Golden Lion with such terrifying power that even Mount Tai would be shattered with a single punch!

“Wind Thunder Pearl, go!” Peng Demon King spat out the Wind Thunder Pearl, placing it in front to block the immense Golden Lion.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

The thunderous explosions managed to withstand the terrifying punch of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon.

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva clapped his hands together and stood on a Dragon Elephant, shouting, “Great Majestic Dragon Gaze!”

The self-created Technique of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva called the “Great Majestic Dragon Gaze”, as the name implies, involves visualizing an Ancient Heavenly Dragon in the Sea of Consciousness and Cultivating Mana. At that moment, a massive golden Celestial Dragon appeared behind him, as vivid as if it were alive, not merely a visualization, ready to soar into the skies at any moment.

Generally, when a Bodhisattva or Buddha attains realization, they create their Scriptures and Cultivation Techniques to spread the Way of the Dao. The “Great Majestic Dragon Gaze” is an original creation of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon. In ancient times, a protector of the Buddhist Sect known as the Great Majestic Dragon gave rise to this visualization. By channeling the fortune of the heavenly dragon and deploying this technology, his physical strength surged a hundredfold, shaking Mount Sumeru was no joke; this was the true power of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva.

An immense Dragon Qi rolled in, almost destabilizing Enlightenment and Peng Demon King. Before them was a thousand-foot-long giant dragon, coiling behind the Bodhisattva, instilling an innate fear and trembling in anyone who beheld it!

Enlightenment muttered in his heart, “I thought this Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva’s claim to shake Mount Sumeru was just a boast. I didn’t expect that he was not fully exerting his strength earlier. Now, even with Great Peng and me working together, we’re no match for him.”

At this moment, the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon’s formidable power truly seemed capable of shaking Mount Sumeru, itself 84,000 leagues in height. Imagine the terror of such strength!

“Great Majestic, Great Wise, Great Courageous! Great Mighty Celestial Dragon!” Just as the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon roared, he punched down, and the Celestial Dragon roared along with him, nearly merging into one. His punch shook all of West Cow He State.

Together, Enlightenment and Peng Demon King gasped at the sheer force of the punch, certainly enough to shake Mount Sumeru. Such might could annihilate all experts of the Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal First Layer! If the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon Bodhisattva were to advance even further, how terrifying would that be? It was simply too dreadful!

Enlightenment, forming a spell, cried, “The void turns into a sea, clouds move to create rain, summoning wind and calling rain, thunder and lightning strike!”

Enlightenment unleashed Divine Skills, transforming the area into a massive water screen, nearly submerging the whole Mount Meru. However, Mount Meru was protected by a Formation, clearly proving ineffective.

Using the three Divine Skills of Chi Songzi in quick succession, Enlightenment created a vast ocean, storms, and thunderous roars of frightening power!

Peng Demon King roared, spread his wings, and flapped a cascade of golden sword rain. Numerous golden swords hovered in the air, converging into a massive shield while the Wind Thunder Pearl unleashed a thunderous hurricane, standing in front together.

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon spoke, “Interesting, so you are the descendant of the Ancient Rain Master Chi Songzi?”

A massive fist seal descended like Mount Tai, crashing into the sea with a thunderous boom, causing the seawater to boil and steam to rise into the air, quickly solidifying into hail that hammered down, breaking through the First Layer of the sea directly! The Second Layer of defense was composed of the divine skill of Walking Clouds and Falling Rain, with every raindrop weighing hundreds of pounds. Vast moving clouds, like mires, still couldn’t stop the fists of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon!

“Great Power and Virtue, Great Wisdom and Courage, Great Compassion and Mercy, Great Benevolence and Goodness!” The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon clenched a Dharma Seal with his left hand and formed a fist with his right, as multiple seals were bestowed upon the terrifying fist, boosting its power once more, causing the whole West Cow He State to tremble because of this terrifying punch.

“Thunderous boom!”

The divine skill of Walking Clouds and Falling Rain was blasted open in an instant, and even the backup defense of Summon Wind and Call Rain, which formed layers of protection like copper walls and iron barriers, with Soothing Wind cutting like knives, made metallic clanging sounds against the fist seal of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon but failed to leave any mark.

“Break for me!” bellowed the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon, shattering the Third Layer of defense directly.

The Fourth Layer was composed of the divine skills of thunder and lightning, transforming into a vast sea of golden thunder, which roared and tumbled. The fist of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon penetrated through directly.

With thunder vanishing in an instant, the fist seal slammed into Peng Demon King’s golden shield with a bang, the unstoppable punch shattered the shield into countless golden feathers, then striking the Wind Thunder Pearl behind it!

Enlightenment Dao, realizing the situation was dire, quickly swung his long sword, creating two sword shadow clones with a ferocious push, shouting, “Explode for me!”

The sword shadow clones exploded instantly, the vast sword Qi rolling like a sea of clouds, a dragon turning over, crushing downward.

The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon’s fist burst open a gap, but the sword Qi was still blasted apart by that punch!

Peng Demon King’s expression drastically changed, he said, “Go, don’t worry about me! I’ll hold off this Great Mighty Celestial Dragon!”

However, Enlightenment Dao smirked, “We are brothers, not born on the same year, month, and day, but willing to die on the same year, month, and day. Kong Xuan is your elder brother and naturally mine as well! We’ll advance and retreat together!”

The self-destruction of the two sword shadow clones affected the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon for a moment, but the fist seal was still oppressive and unstoppable.

Peng Demon King immediately raised the Wind Thunder Pearl, ready to detonate it directly!

“Mao Bodhisattva shall not succeed in harming my brothers!” The fastest to arrive was Yu Rong King, who shouted loudly, leaped into the air, and the three Exorcism Hoops swayed before falling down, firmly circling the arms of the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon. They tightened instantly, and their sharp edges plunged in, causing intense pain as the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon roared and golden blood spattered forth.

“Get lost!” The Great Mighty Celestial Dragon slammed the Dharma Seal he was clutching in his left hand onto the three Exorcism Hoops, sending them crying out from the impact before flying away and landing aside.

Enraged to the extreme, the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon retracted his fist and roared loudly. Behind him emerged a huge image of the Great Majestic Dragon which then shrank and wrapped around his arm. He continued to hold the Dharma Seal in his left hand, shifting through the Treasure Wheel Seal, Lion Seal, Fierce Seal, and Wisdom Seal, each magically boosting his arm.

“Bang!”

The universe dimmed, as the fist came crashing down again. This person was too brutish, using no Magical Treasures, only relying on his powerful fists to fight invincibly across the world, causing mountains and rivers to tremble and the Eight Desolates to shake.

“Dodge!” Yu Rong King shouted, the three Exorcism Hoops respectively circling Peng Demon King, Enlightenment Dao, and himself, before he clenched a spell and dove underground.

Seeing this, the Great Mighty Celestial Dragon vibrated his arm, punching down on the spot where the three had just dug in. The ferocity of this punch was simply terrifying, seemingly capable of punching a great hole through the heavens.

The three were directly shaken out from underground, vomiting blood in succession, severely injured.

The fate of the three brothers remains unknown, to be continued in the next chapter.

PS: The book might be listed tomorrow. I am not entirely sure. I hope you all will subscribe after it gets listed. Although I strive to maintain a good mindset and write well, writing a million words for just a few hundred dollars in fees is really disheartening.

The nature of this book ensures it won’t be very long. If I randomly invent a bunch of powerful characters, I suspect none of you would want to read that. So far, it can be said that nearly half of the book has been provided for free. If the rest goes on subscription, the total won’t exceed thirty or forty, and charging ten yuan a month for Qidian Coins should suffice for a month or two of reading.

Earning money isn’t easy. Writing is hard, but I won’t use it as an excuse to ask for tips or anything. I only ask for a small subscription fee each day. 1000 characters/3 cents, high V only 2 cents, and regular users about 5 cents. At most, it’s only about 30 or 40 cents daily, and just skipping a pack of spicy strips will cover it… -!!

The quality of this book is there for all to see. It’s arguably the best and most satisfying book I’ve written so far, but unfortunately, this is the result.

Also, I want to thank “Waiting Youth” for many essential comments that have provided me with a lot of inspiration and extended the plot. Thanks to “Hongmeng Great Saint,” who has been following updates since before this book and provided a reward of twenty thousand Qidian Coins as well as all the contributing fans on the leaderboard; and lastly, thanks to the friends who helped promote in the forums.

In summary, for those who can afford a subscription, please consider subscribing. It’s a small effort that would be greatly appreciated.
