Chapter 210 Overseas Chinese in Another World
Eric finally woke up, tears streaming down his face. Stay connected through empire
"Chebu Zundanba, congratulations on coming home!" Xiarongbu Living Buddha gestured with both hands, welcoming him.
Shaking his head, Eric said indifferently, "You've got the wrong person. I'm not Chebu Zundanba!"
Xiarongbu Living Buddha was slightly stunned, "Are you Chebu Zundanba's son?"
Eric snorted coldly, neither admitting nor denying it.
Xiarongbu Living Buddha smiled with relief. "I've been worried that Chebu Zundanba would be possessed by his obsession... It seems I was worried for nothing. Chebu Zundanba has restrained himself and not used the 'Soul Seizing Technique' on you! By the way, about your father..."
"He's not my father!" Eric coldly interrupted Xiarongbu Living Buddha, "Undeniably, my bloodline is inherited from Chebu Zundanba, but I will never acknowledge him as my father!"
"It seems something must have happened between you and your father..." Xiarongbu Living Buddha was about to say a few words of persuasion, but Eric's cold and stern expression made him change the subject, "Where is Chebu Zundanba now? Why haven't I been able to sense his presence with my 'Heavenly Mind Communication' for over a decade?"
"You can't sense him anymore!" Eric sneered again, "He has long since perished!"
"What?" Xiarongbu Living Buddha couldn't help but turn pale, "Can you tell me what happened?"
With an expressionless face, Eric narrated what Xiarongbu Living Buddha didn't know.
When he heard that Chebu Zundanba had directly opened Eric Olivia's abdomen to remove the fetus, Xiarongbu Living Buddha's face turned pale, devoid of color. He murmured to himself, "A moment's folly, causing harm to others and destroying one's own merit. I am now reaping what I sowed..."
After reciting a passage from the "Sutra of Transference," Xiarongbu Living Buddha bowed to Eric and then asked, "What happened next?"
"Afterwards..."
...
Feeling Eric Olivia's life fading, Chebu Zundanba showed no sadness. He immediately picked up the baby and went to the point of concentrated spiritual energy, using the "Thousand Worlds' Marvelous Method" to open a passage connecting Earth and the new world.
Gazing fervently at the unborn baby in his arms, Chebu Zundanba couldn't contain his excitement, "Kid, you have to grow up quickly and thrive. Once you establish yourself and survive in the new world, my spiritual wisdom will arrive! By then, you must obediently surrender your body to me... Hehe, even if you don't want to, with the power of my spiritual wisdom, devouring you will be a piece of cake... I will definitely become the first Living Buddha of the Tibetan Secret School to shatter the void in four hundred years..."
As he spoke, he sent a divine consciousness into the baby's body as a mark of his "descent."
Just as Chebu Zundanba was about to send the baby into the gradually expanding "black hole," a gloomy voice suddenly sounded, "I didn't expect the venerable Chebu Zundanba to be even more demonic than us in the Demon Sect! At least I wouldn't commit such an act of killing wife and child..."
As the voice suddenly rose, Chebu Zundanba had already turned around on guard. He felt a chill. Although he had been distracted by his excitement just now, anyone who could approach him unnoticed must be a grandmaster.
The speaker was a young man who looked ordinary but had a somewhat icy demeanor. As soon as he saw him, Chebu Zundanba frowned, "Heavenly Demon, aren't you dead yet?"
"If I were dead, how could I enjoy such a wonderful scene!" Heavenly Demon looked at Eric Olivia on the ground and then at the baby in Chebu Zundanba's hands, smiling wickedly, "Tell me, if I spread this matter to the world, what kind of sensation do you think it would cause?"
Chebu Zundanba smiled faintly, "What sensation would it cause? It would just be another joint effort against demons!"
Heavenly Demon's eyes narrowed, "What do you mean?"
"Do I need to spell it out?" Chebu Zundanba smiled triumphantly, "While you spread the news, I will also tell everyone that you cruelly killed my wife and took away my son... Hehe, then who do you think the world will believe, you or me?"
"Amazing, truly amazing!" Heavenly Demon applauded, "I didn't expect the venerable Chebu Zundanba to be so shameless and evil. Could it be that you are a spy I planted in the Buddhist sect?"
"Alright, Heavenly Demon, I don't want to waste any more words with you. Just leave quickly, and remember not to speak carelessly..."
"Why? Not talking?" Heavenly Demon snorted, "Whether anyone believes it or not, I will spread it to the world..."
"Heavenly Demon," Chebu Zundanba interrupted, "Do you really want to start a war between Buddhism and demons?"
"Why not? The martial arts world has been calm for too long. It's time to stir things up!"
"One-sided is just one-sided!" Heavenly Demon shrugged, indifferent. "I don't care..."
"You are the first person in the Demon Sect to possess the 'Heart of the Heavenly Demon,'" Chebu Zundanba was puzzled by Heavenly Demon's words. "Don't you, as the supreme of the Demon Sect, have any consideration for the Demon Sect?"
"Is the current Demon Sect still the Demon Sect?" Heavenly Demon said with a stern face. "Being unrestrained and acting recklessly, that's one thing. But forgetting one's roots is another! However, under the chaos caused by that brat Shenfeng, the Demon Sect has become chaotic. They even mixed with the slaves of Dongying! If it weren't for my friendship with Shenfeng's father, I would have killed him long ago... If your Buddhist sect can help me clean up the mess, I would be very grateful!"
At this moment, the passage had formed. Chebu Zundanba didn't want to say more and threw the baby towards the "black hole." However, the baby turned in mid-air and flew towards Heavenly Demon.
With a leap, Chebu Zundanba snatched the baby back and said sternly, "Heavenly Demon, are you really intent on opposing me?"
"Yes!" Heavenly Demon's face also turned cold. "I just find people like you, who appear kind but are actually sinister, disgusting..."
Chebu Zundanba knew that while the spiritual power here was abundant, it could only maintain the stability of the "black hole" for a few more minutes. If it exceeded this time, they might get lost in the space-time!
Not daring to delay any longer, Chebu Zundanba threw the baby towards the "black hole" while taking out his personal magic weapon, the "Demon Subduing Staff," and used his full power to attack Heavenly Demon.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Naturally, Heavenly Demon would not show weakness. He pulled out the Demon Sect's treasure, the "Heavenly Demon Blade," and bravely collided head-on.
Boom...
The powerful qi scattered, and dust filled the air.
The full-force confrontation between the two grandmaster-level experts actually caused the land within a radius of ten meters around them to sink by a meter, and the surging force even reached the "black hole" in mid-air.
It is important to note that the space-time passage is the most unstable existence, and once it is shaken, the consequences are unpredictable.
And now, under the external force's vibration, the passage connecting the two worlds actually turned into the devouring "black hole" in the universe!
Heavenly Demon and Chebu Zundanba, who were both fully resisting, were unexpectedly sucked into the black hole together due to the sudden attack. Along with them, there were countless dust and light!
Fortunately, this "black hole" was artificial and had a time limit. After Chebu Zundanba and Heavenly Demon were absorbed together, its effectiveness came to an end, disappearing abruptly, leaving only a burst of bright light and scattered dust.
Unfortunately, this "good" was only relative to the Earth's environment. For Chebu Zundanba and Heavenly Demon, it was very bad!
As long as a grandmaster-level figure takes one more step, they can shatter the void and cross the world with their physical bodies. However, this one step difference is like a thousand miles.
Although Chebu Zundanba and Heavenly Demon were both grandmaster-level experts, they could not withstand the space-time storm in the passage. Their bodies gradually collapsed due to the tremendous force, and their minds gradually dissipated due to extreme pain...
They both knew that as long as they persisted for a few more minutes, they would be able to reach the new world through another exit and successfully save their lives! However, they also knew that even if it was just two minutes, they absolutely could not hold on! In a few tens of seconds, whether it was the Living Buddha or Heavenly Demon, they would both perish, never to exist again!
Watching the baby in the distance about to touch a bright spot, Chebu Zundanba exerted his final power and shot the mysterious staff in his hand. He laughed heartily, "Son, let's reunite as a family of three in the Pure Land..."
At this moment, a dark shadow quickly chased after the staff. Heavenly Demon sneered, "People like you deserve to go to hell with me..."
Without the power to protect himself, Chebu Zundanba was unable to reply. He was torn to pieces by the violent space-time storm, his soul scattered, and he died as dead could be!
Heavenly Demon laughed heartily and shouted, "Blood Escape Technique." Before his words fell, his whole person exploded, and a blood light rose from the shattered body, swiftly catching up with the Heavenly Demon Blade that had been ejected earlier. It attached to it, then fiercely collided with the Demon Subduing Staff that was about to pierce the baby. One person, two weapons, simultaneously pierced through the space-time passage, but flew to different ends of the world...
After hearing all this, Xiarongbu Rinpoche remained silent for a long time, only mourning his eighth-life dear friend in his heart.
Eric also said nothing, he was also lamenting. He finally understood why he became the unique Saint Demon Mage in Celestia's history, not because of the Founder's Ring, but because of his extremely rare chaotic constitution!
Indeed, if the "Founder's Ring" could prevent elemental conflicts, there would probably have been many all-element mages long ago, after all, there is not only one genius in the world! It was unexpected that he, who had always thought of himself as an "extraterrestrial visitor," was actually a true Chinese person, just living as an expatriate in another world... In this way, it made sense why he had shrunk when he arrived on Earth! After all, the time difference between the two worlds, although he had lived in Celestia for over four hundred years, on Earth, only a little over ten years had passed...
Lost in his thoughts, Eric, finally regained his senses. He sighed and said, "No wonder my 'Heavenly Insight' couldn't sense Chebu Zundanba's whereabouts, but also couldn't confirm whether he was alive or dead! It turns out that although his soul scattered, there was still a trace of his divine consciousness in your body..."
Eric nodded at the words, "If it weren't for this trace of divine consciousness, I would not have been able to understand these things..."
"Chebu Zun..." In Eric's gaze, Xiarongbu Rinpoche stopped and asked, "How should I address you?"
"Just call me 'Eric'!"
Xiarongbu Rinpoche nodded, and said kindly, "Eric, now that you have understood the truth, what are you going to do?"
Eric frowned slightly and asked, "Are you referring to succeeding as Rinpoche?"
"Yes." Looking at Eric's cold expression, Xiarongbu Rinpoche stated his opinion, "Eric, can you take over as Rinpoche?"
"Why should I do that?"
Xiarongbu Rinpoche said seriously, "After Sakya went out to find the woman who might give birth to the Chaos, he went through many hardships. Now that he has finally come to a good end, he cannot break the hearts of seventy thousand believers..."
"I need to think about it..."
Xiarongbu Rinpoche knew that Eric's experience tonight was very distressing for him, so he nodded and left with a sigh.
