Death Sutra - Chapter757

I couldn't help but feel nervous at this sudden attack.

Tong Tong was still on guard. Seeing this, I didn't dare to be careless. I quickly took out the Armor Remover Sword from my Xiang Liu Pouch and held it in my hand.

That beam of light was really strange. Although I had predicted that there would be danger before we entered the Spirit Lock Tower, I didn't think that it would be so elusive.

I looked around vigilantly while asking Tong Tong what that beam of light was.

Unexpectedly, Tong Tong didn't know. She just felt that the beam of light was very dangerous.

Her vague answer made me confused. It wasn't a good idea to stay here for a long time, so I asked her to walk with our backs against each other.

After a few steps, a red light flashed in the sky. However, this red light didn't attack us. It floated above our heads without moving.

However, just because it didn't move didn't mean that it wasn't dangerous to us. I gathered the Dao energy in the veins of the sky and gathered it in my hands. I raised the Armor Remover Sword and slashed at the red light.

Perhaps it had sensed the danger, but before the Armor Stripping Sword could touch it, it immediately disappeared.

This time, my attack missed. This made me feel that the Spirit Lock Tower was very strange.

This was only the first floor, and we already encountered such trouble. I didn't know what was waiting for us on the higher floors.

Since it didn't attack me, it meant that it didn't want to attack us.

I didn't know how big this floor was. The two of us had been walking around for more than half an hour, and we hadn't encountered the same situation as before.

However, the more it was like this, the more difficult it was for me to move forward. I had to be more careful with each step.

I had a feeling that there weren't any stairs in the Spirit Lock Tower. After walking for so long, there was no reason for us to still be here.

Just as I was feeling doubtful, there was a sound in the sky. I saw a light yellow dot floating not far from us.

I was a little angry because I couldn't find the exit. I took out a Burning Sun Talisman and threw it over. I wanted to see what it was.

The Scorching Sun Talisman flew toward the yellow dot and exploded. Following the light of the explosion, I was able to see the thing's face.

That thing was extremely ugly. It had a scarlet face with two silver-white horns, and the yellow dots were where its eyes should be.

It had a ferocious face full of sharp teeth, and it was grinning at us.

Although it was only the size of an ordinary person, it had a pair of black wings on its back, and the wings were emitting black gas.

I was startled and immediately thought of the Yaksha in Buddhism.

The monster in front of him looked exactly the same as the Heavenly Yaksha.

This Yaksha was originally a kind of ugly ghost in the Buddhist scriptures. It was brave, violent, and could eat people. Some of them were later taught by the great Buddha and became the God of Dharma Protectors, and were listed as one of the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragon.

At the same time as the Rakshasa, they were born from the sole of the Lord of Life Bu Luo Yidiya or the Great Brahma.

Together with the Rakshasa Guardian Deity, he was also the Heavenly Subjects of the Heavenly King of Vaisha Gate.

They lived on the ground or in the air. They were ferocious, swift, and intimidating.

They used to be evil and were on the same level as the Devil. Later on, because they focused on their cultivation, Shiva gave them the ability to control the sun's orbit. However, because they didn't want the sun to set, they were defeated. Later on, the world was divided into day and night. This was also one of the reasons why Shiva became the 'Green Neck.'

However, didn't the Yaksha become the Guardian God of Buddhism?

Why was it imprisoned in the Spirit Sealing Tower?

However, after thinking about it, the Yaksha in Buddhism that had become a God wasn't the one in front of me. Otherwise, the Spirit Sealing Tower wouldn't have been able to imprison it.

Tong Tong saw that I was dumbfounded. "What's the reason?" I told her what I was thinking.

After listening to me, she was bewildered. Her face became more solemn.

Although Tong Tong's power wasn't bad, it would be difficult for her to deal with this Heavenly Yaksha. Her anxiety wasn't without reason.

Since we had encountered this thing here, we couldn't avoid a fierce battle.

The Scorching Sun Talisman hadn't hurt it, so it would be difficult to deal with it.

However, it wasn't the time to think about that. Perhaps the previous attack had enraged it. That Heavenly Yaksha had overtaken us.

It was so fast that I couldn't react. Fortunately, Tong Tong was one step ahead of me. A black chain with lightning bolts lashed at Heavenly Yaksha's face.

However, Heavenly Yaksha didn't slow down. It didn't dodge and just let Tong Tong's chain hit its body.

There was a flash of fire. Heavenly Yaksha's body paused for a moment, but it wasn't hurt at all.

Right after that, it stretched out its hand to grab Tong Tong. Tong Tong immediately took out her chain and used it to block it.

However, the originally powerful and extremely tough chains were broken by the Heavenly Yaksha's grasp. Just as its hand was about to reach Tong Tong, the Heavenly Yaksha's hand reached out.

Seeing that, I cursed under my breath. This Heavenly Yaksha was a monster that could devour ghosts. Although Tong Tong was born as a Yin Fetus, she was still a Yin Soul. This Heavenly Yaksha had an innate ability to suppress her.

If the Heavenly Yaksha grabbed Tong Tong, she would be devoured.

With that thought, I circulated the Dao energy in my heavenly veins to my hands and thrust my sword at Heavenly Yaksha's hand.

This time, the Heavenly Yaksha reacted. It changed the path of its hand and didn't go after Tong Tong. Instead, it retreated to dodge my sword.

I immediately asked Tong Tong to hide behind me, asking her not to attack.

When Tong Tong saw me, she pouted her lips. She wanted to say something, but I interrupted her.

At this moment, Heavenly Yaksha was flying toward us. Its sharp claws were exposed, and the cold light from them sent chills down my spine.

I didn't dare to be careless. I stepped out of the Nine Star Heavenly Dipper and raised my Dismantling Armor Sword.

This time, Heavenly Yaksha didn't dodge. It used both hands to catch the Dismantling Armor Sword.

I was tense. I didn't expect that Heavenly Yaksha would be so strong. If it was an ordinary ghost, it would have been killed by my sword. Yet, this Heavenly Yaksha was able to withstand my attack.

Even so, I could see the strain on its face.

At this moment, the Dismantling Armor Sword couldn't sink, and Heavenly Yaksha couldn't raise it an inch. The two sides were in a deadlock.

At this moment, I heard a clap of thunder. A chain made of black light appeared in front of me and lashed at Heavenly Yaksha.

It turned out that Tong Tong had seized the opportunity to attack while the Heavenly Yaksha was focused on me.

However, this attack still couldn't hurt it in the slightest. Instead, it drew out its anger.

Black energy surged from its body, and the wings on its back expanded. The sharp barbs on its wings aimed at me.

How could I let it have its way? I hurriedly pulled out the Dismantling Armor Sword and retreated. Unexpectedly, I couldn't move it no matter how hard I tried. The Dismantling Armor Sword was firmly grasped in its hand.

Heavenly Yaksha's face revealed a ferocious smile. His eyes were cold, as though he was looking at a corpse.

At this moment, the barbs were almost in front of me. I didn't have time to think. I released the Dismantling Armor Sword and jumped to the side.

As soon as I jumped, the huge wings closed like an iron door.

Seeing that, I was shocked. If I had been a second later, I would have become a dead soul.

That Heavenly Yaksha didn't manage to capture me, and his anger increased. He threw away the Dismantling Armor Sword and moved his hands behind his back. I didn't know what he was doing.

In an instant, he raised his head and roared. Black liquid flowed out from the corner of his mouth. As the liquid flowed out, his pupils enlarged, as though they were about to split open.

Then, there was a ripping sound. It seemed that his body had been torn open. His hands slowly moved forward, as though he was holding something.

When his hands returned to their original position, I could see that he was holding a black bone sword. It looked like his spine.

As he flapped his wings, his body swayed in the air. It seemed that pulling out the bone sword had consumed a lot of his strength.

Seeing that, I was stunned. I didn't think that he would have such a trump card.

Perhaps he sensed my state, but he didn't give me any time to react. He flapped his wings and flew towards me. At the same time, he raised the bone sword in his hand. It was about to reach my face.

At that moment, I didn't have any weapons in my hands. It was too late to pick up the Dismantling Armor Sword.

Thinking about that, I calmed myself down and closed my eyes. I summoned the original seal that had the words' Natural Saint 'carved on it.

When the five foot six inch seal appeared, I pointed at the top of Heavenly Yaksha's head. The seal flew above his head.

Then, I shouted, "Suppress!"

The Celestial Master Seal immediately spun in the air. It emitted a golden light that completely surrounded Heavenly Yaksha's body.

Heavenly Yaksha's body immediately froze under the seal. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move an inch.

Seeing that, I heaved a sigh of relief. This Heavenly Yaksha was really powerful to be able to force my Celestial Master Seal out.

However, I couldn't let my guard down. This Heavenly Yaksha might have other tricks up his sleeves.

I immediately used the remaining Dao energy in my Veins of the Heavens and sent all of it to the seal. With that, the seal spun even faster.

Heavenly Yaksha seemed to have sensed the danger and started to resist. He pushed the seal up a few inches.

I didn't want to be outdone. I touched the jade bracelet on my chest with one hand and continuously absorbed the dragon energy inside. My other hand increased the amount of Dao energy I sent to push the seal down a few more inches.
