Chapter 720: Chapter 348 Bai Yi Falls, Head of White Brahma Temple_1
After a hole large enough for a person to pass through appeared on the Sky-float Boat,
the three Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators on board
instantly vanished from everyone’s line of sight,
as if they had never appeared at all.
They didn’t even think it through.
This is the territory of the Demonic Path power, White Brahma Temple.
Moreover, the so-called sacred relic of the White Brahma Temple, known by outsiders as one of the most wicked items between heaven and earth—the White Brahma Lotus—
clearly had already reached the level of turning illusion into reality and descending upon the world.
And since the people of the White Brahma Temple had already taken action against them,
do you think those from the White Brahma Temple would choose to spare them after hearing that these people were from the Main Sect of Wan Dan Sect?
That’s utterly impossible.
After all, the White Brahma Temple isn’t some minor power either.
Moreover, the Main Sect of Wan Dan Sect is already having a hard time against the assaults from the Divine Elixir Sect.
Given this, how could the Main Sect of Wan Dan Sect set aside their conflicts with the Divine Elixir Sect
and wholeheartedly seek trouble with the White Brahma Temple?
So, rather than betting on a nearly impossible situation,
it would be better for these three Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators to just run away.
Even though cultivators in the Mortal Transcendence Realm are still within the Five Realms of Mortality,
as long as they have reached the Mortal Transcendence Realm, unless they are in the most prosperous areas with the richest cultivation resources,
the status of Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators is still quite high.
Even if these three Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators left the Main Sect of Wan Dan Sect and fled,
to live a carefree and comfortable life
is very easy for them.
the ubiquitous White Brahma Lotus roots and tendrils seemed to have no additional movements.
Not much different from what the three Mortal Transcendence Realm guards had imagined,
the true goal of the Demonic Path power of the White Brahma Temple—
was that floating vessel suspended up high in the sky.
As for those people on the Sky-float Boat?
Compared to the Sky-float Boat, they naturally seemed far less important.
“They ran, ran away?”
On the Sky-float Boat,
Bai Yi from the Bai Family of the Main Sect of Wan Dan Sect silently watched the direction where the three Mortal Transcendence Realm guards disappeared.
A deep sense of despair slowly emerged in his eyes.
If we’re talking about before,
he, Bai Yi, might still have had a glimmer of chance.
Following the decision of the three Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators to flee,
the last thread of hope he was clinging to
had now also disappeared completely.
“It’s over, all over…”
Bai Yi’s eyes gradually became dim,
and a self-mocking smile unwittingly appeared at the corners of his mouth.
In pursuit of benefits, he had spared no expense, even using nearly half of his savings to acquire the opportunity to inspect this sub-sect power.
Now, tempted by the mere rumor of the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Fire,
he had come to the territory of White Lotus Prefecture to search for traces of this Heavenly Earth Spiritual Fire.
he had indeed caught the attention of the Demonic Path power of White Brahma Temple within White Lotus Prefecture.
His series of actions truly seemed somewhat laughable.
At this very moment, Bai Yi suddenly vaguely remembered a phrase once said to him by an elder in his family:
“Excessive greed is the beginning of one’s step-by-step descent into the abyss.”
When he first heard it, Bai Yi hadn’t felt much about it.
But now, upon careful reflection, he suddenly felt that the saying was right.
Excessive greed indeed marks the commencement of one’s descent into the abyss, step by step.
It’s just that, regrettably,
while Bai Yi now understood the true meaning of this saying at this moment,
obviously, he had realized it a bit too late.
On the deck of the Sky-float Boat,
Bai Yi silently looked up,
calmly facing the sky where massive roots of the White Brahma Lotus, seemingly large enough to cover the heavens, spread out.
He slowly closed his eyes.
Over White Lotus Prefecture, above the White Brahma Temple,
a monk clad in a White Lotus Monk Robe, holding a string of White Buddha Beads, meditated upon a white lotus.
Suddenly, he opened his tightly shut eyes,
then brought his hands together in prayer.
The White Brahma Force enveloping him also slowly began to dissipate.
The abbot of the White Brahma Temple had noticed the escape of the three Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators from that Sky-float Boat.
compared to the more significant benefits of the Sky-float Boat, the escape of the three Mortal Transcendence Realm cultivators didn’t seem all that important.
The Sky-float Boat, having fallen into the spider’s web, was now like an insect ensnared,
with no other choice but death.
“Gather up, let’s go take a look at that rumored Sky-float Boat.”
The old monk turned his head and said softly to the young monk behind him.
The young monk silently looked up,
his gaze fixed on the still intact Sky-float Boat before him.
He couldn’t help but furrow his brows slightly,
and just as he was about to ask something,
the huge roots of the White Brahma Lotus, which seemed boundless at a glance, hanging above the Sky-float Boat,
began to slowly descend towards it with a heavy crash.
At first, the descending speed of the massive White Brahma Lotus roots was not quick,
but as time passed, the speed of descent grew faster and faster.
