"Very good! I want to see if you have that ability!"
The Blood Demon revealed a sinister smile. His soul gradually enlarged and became a two-meter tall brawny man. However, it was in a translucent ghost state.
"Thousand Ghosts Devouring Heart!"
Immediately after, he activated the Blood Spirit Bead and countless vengeful spirits surged out. Their sinister faces made one's scalp go numb.
There were so many ghosts that I didn't have a chance to dodge. I wanted to face them head-on, but those ghosts seemed to be objects of the void. In just a blink of an eye, they entered my body. This was similar to the Five Sacred Venomous Insects I had encountered before.
In the next moment, I felt a heart-wrenching pain as if ten thousand arrows were piercing my heart.
"You want to fight with me with that little ability of yours? You're just asking to be humiliated. If it wasn't for your sneak attack, I wouldn't be so cowardly!" The Blood Demon said disdainfully.
I didn't reply to him and just frowned as I continued to resist the invasion of the thousand ghosts.
"Little guy, don't waste your energy. Not to mention you, even the Martial Saints of the Golden Age of Martial Arts would find it hard to resist the torture of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Heart, let alone you," he said proudly with a shrug.
Actually, the situation was very dangerous. If he had reacted a little slower, he would have been consigned to eternal damnation. After all, the timing of the sneak attack was perfect and he was caught unprepared.
Now that he had lost his body, not only did his power decrease, but he also consumed a lot of energy when he used the demonic creatures. If it wasn't for the Blood Demon's strong foundation, he would have been annihilated.
What was more troublesome was that even if the Blood Demon had the upper hand, he couldn't kill me. After all, the Sovereign's sacrificial offering was rarely seen in a thousand years.
However, the Blood Demon suddenly had an idea and a playful smile appeared on his face.
"Little guy, in order to punish your foolish behavior, I've decided to occupy your body before you become a sacrifice for the Great Monarch. I'll help you take care of everything you need to do. Don't worry, I'll also take good care of your beautiful wives for you," Blood Devil said with a beaming smile.
"You're despicable!" Although I was constantly resisting the pain of the Thousand Ghosts Devouring Heart, I still heard the Blood Demon's words.
"Haha, compared to your sneak attack, this is nothing." Blood Demon's smile grew wider.
"D * mn it!" I clenched my fists, feeling restless.
The Golden Snake Sword seemed to sense my mood and charged at the Blood Demon like a shooting star.
Just as the Blood Spirit Pearl and the Hellfire Mirror were about to slit the Blood Devil's throat, the Blood Spirit Pearl and the Hellfire Mirror appeared in front of the Blood Devil. Two streams of evil, dark-red energy attached to the Golden Serpent Sword, slowing it down.
Not only that, but the dark red energy also wanted to converge into the Golden Serpent Sword, but it was strongly repelled by the sword. The two completely different energies were fighting, and at that moment, the Golden Serpent Sword was like a patient unwilling to compromise with an illness.
As the wielder of the Golden Snake Sword, I could feel that it carried an indomitable will, which was surprisingly similar to mine. Maybe it was because I improved too quickly that I didn't have any brothers to fight alongside me, while the Golden Snake Sword silently accompanied me as I grew. It was an indescribable feeling.
Now that I was in a difficult situation, the Golden Snake Sword fought for justice and followed closely behind. However, it couldn't change the situation when facing the two great demons.
"Hmph, it's just a fake divine weapon. Do you think you can overturn the heavens?" Blood Demon curled his lips.
Just as I said that, a layer of dazzling golden light appeared around my body. Not only that, but a Golden Buddha appeared behind me.
This scene stunned Blood Demon. "This … This is the Golden Buddha's Protection?"
Blood Demon had an expression of disbelief. Generally speaking, the Golden Buddha's Protection was only available to the people of Shaolin Temple. Moreover, it had to be at the Martial Saint realm as it was a necessary condition.
This was because only the heaven-defying experts of the Martial Saint realm were able to refine relics. Since ancient times, Shaolin Temple didn't have many relics, and every one of them was an almighty figure whose name would be recorded in history.
Shaolin Temple's martial arts had always been the representation of profoundness. Moreover, it was mutually exclusive to the Demon Path.
This was especially true for the Golden Buddha's Protection. Although I hadn't learned this protective cultivation technique, the Buddhist relic that I had absorbed from Great Master Wu Xiang played an important role in this desperate situation.
These little ghosts had strong resentment, so I couldn't resist them with just the Yijin Scripture. However, it was different with the Golden Buddha's Protection. As the Golden Buddha appeared, Buddhist seals appeared around me. No matter how the little ghosts attacked me, they couldn't shake the Buddhist seals.
This was the power of mutual promotion and restraint!
It wasn't inferior to the Seven Absolutes of True Martial Arts.
Although the Golden Buddha's Protection had an immediate effect, it required a tremendous amount of energy to support it. Soon, I felt that I couldn't bear it anymore. Fortunately, the Blood Spirit Pearl was gradually dimming, and the number of ghosts it released was decreasing.
At this moment, Blood Demon looked at me with fear. "Brat, where did you learn this Buddhist cultivation technique?"
"Have a taste of this!"
I didn't pay attention to him, and the power in my body surged like a tide. Indeed, at this critical moment, I could only give it my all. If I failed, Blood Demon could occupy my body and harm my sister-in-law and the others. That wasn't something I wanted to see happen.
Although there was only a glimmer of hope, I didn't have any other choice. Blood Demon had appeared because of me. At worst, I would die together with him. At least, it would be a worthy death.
"Buddha's Palm!" Suddenly, a large amount of information surged into my head, and I released my last wisp of energy.
Suddenly, a huge light gold palm appeared in the sky. At the same time, a circle of golden light shot out, blocking Blood Demon's way out.
"It's done." I smiled in relief.
"Boom!" In the next moment, the light gold palm suddenly fell, accompanied by an earth-shattering righteous energy.
