Chapter 49: Buddha and Demon Cannot Coexist

In the void, terrifying energy surged. The two dragon shadows intertwined like two divine dragons, desperately trying to tear each other apart!
Wu Nian and Ye Feng were both grim-faced at this moment, with vast power continuously gathering from their bodies and pouring into the two dragon shadows.
"Sect Master, in your opinion, who will win between these two?"
Mu Yunfei, standing behind Wang Feng, watched the two intertwined dragon shadows in the void, a solemn look appearing on his face as he inquired.
These two were indeed prodigy disciples of top sects. The strength they displayed was not to be underestimated. Even he felt a sense of wariness in his heart.
"Ye Feng!" Wang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured.
"Oh? Why?" Hearing this, a surprised expression flickered across Mu Yunfei's face, and he pressed further.
Ling Feiwu and Li Tianxin also looked at Wang Feng at this moment, their eyes carrying a sense of inquiry.
In Mu Yunfei's view, Ye Feng and Wu Nian seemed evenly matched at the moment, but he could sense that the dragon shadow unleashed by Wu Nian was slightly stronger.
Wang Feng smiled and did not answer, his gaze towards Ye Feng carrying a strange depth.
Seeing this, Mu Yunfei and the others, although puzzled, did not continue to ask, and focused intently on the two dragon shadows in the arena!
Buzz!
"Prajna of all Buddhas, Formless and Shapeless!"
At this instant, Wu Nian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he let out a low roar. From his body, strands of mysterious Buddhist Patterns emerged. When these Buddhist Patterns appeared, the golden dragon shadow in the void seemed to receive some kind of blessing. A blazing flame suddenly erupted from the entire dragon shadow!
When this flame erupted, the power emanating from the golden dragon shadow instantly became even more terrifying. These flames, following the intertwined parts of the golden dragon shadow and the white dragon shadow, surged towards the white dragon shadow!
Roar!
In less than a moment, the white dragon shadow was covered in these illusory and scorching flames. The white dragon shadow seemed to sense some kind of crisis, letting out a mournful roar, wanting to break free, but it was tightly bound by the golden dragon shadow.
Bang!
At a certain moment, the white dragon shadow was suddenly shattered by the golden dragon shadow, turning into specks of white light, dissipating between heaven and earth.
Puff!
As the white dragon shadow was shattered, Ye Feng's face flushed red, and he violently spat out a mouthful of blood, which then turned ashen white. His entire body trembled slightly at this moment.
"How... How is this possible? Senior Brother Ye actually lost?"
"Hiss, how could Senior Brother Ye lose?"
"This stinky monk's strength is actually so strong? Even Senior Brother Ye is not his match?"
When they saw Ye Feng injured, the four Flying Feather Sect disciples in the distance all revealed an expression of disbelief, and exclaimed in alarm.
For those who followed Ye Feng, Ye Feng was like a god, an invincible existence. But now, Ye Feng had actually been defeated. At this moment, it was as if the sky had fallen in their hearts, leaving them somewhat dispirited.
"Senior Brother Wu Nian is indeed worthy of being the top prodigy of our Formless Sect!"
"That's right, this battle truly displayed the might of Formless Sect!"
"After this battle, Senior Brother Wu Nian's reputation will surely resound throughout the Radiant Sun Empire!"
Compared to the dispirited Flying Feather Sect disciples, the Formless Sect disciples were all excited and thrilled.
"It seems Benefactor Ye has lost. Then this Purple Spirit Profound Flower, Wu Nian will take his leave with it!" In the void, Monk Wu Nian glanced at Ye Feng, put his palms together, performed a Buddhist etiquette, and said softly.
He did not show any joy in defeating Ye Feng. On the contrary, he was as before, without sorrow or joy, his face calm as still water.
Hearing Wu Nian's words, Ye Feng wiped the corner of his mouth, his eyes narrowed, staring intently at Wu Nian, a strange light flashing in his eyes. He remained silent.
While Wu Nian and Ye Feng were communicating, Mu Yunfei and the others, hidden in the distance, looked at Wang Feng's back, their expressions shifting.
Sect Master guessed wrong ah, should I remind Sect Master, don't judge people by appearances?
Mu Yunfei and the others thought to themselves. But as soon as this thought arose, they shook their heads and directly dismissed it. Forget it, it's better not to court death.
Wang Feng was unaware of Mu Yunfei and the others' thoughts. His gaze was fixed on Ye Feng, as if his eyes could penetrate layers of obstacles and see the abnormality within Ye Feng's body.
Li Hei, as if also sensing something, narrowed his eyes and cast his gaze towards Ye Feng, his eyes flashing with a soul-stirring sharp light.
In the void, Monk Wu Nian exchanged glances with Ye Feng for a moment, then put his palms together, performed a Buddhis etiquette, and said loudly: "Thank you Benefactor Ye for parting with it. This monk will not stand on ceremony!"
Hearing Monk Wu Nian's words, Ye Feng bit his teeth, as if making some kind of decision. His entire aura suddenly changed, and he spoke indifferently: "When did I say I would give this Purple Spirit Profound Flower to you? This battle is not over yet!"
"Oh? Could it be that Benefactor Ye has another expert move?" Hearing this, Wu Nian's expression turned serious, and he abruptly looked at Ye Feng and asked.
At this moment, Monk Wu Nian also became vigilant, and the power within his body quietly surged. Although he had slightly defeated Ye Feng just now, he did not dare to underestimate Ye Feng in the slightest.
"This is my hidden trump card, originally I did not want to use it against Brother Wu Nian, but I didn't expect Wu Nian's strength to far exceed my imagination, forcing me to use it!"
"This Purple Spirit Profound Flower is of utmost importance to me, I must contend for it!"
Ye Feng was completely calm, his eyes directly and indifferently facing Monk Wu Nian, speaking neither hastily nor slowly.
When Wu Nian heard Ye Feng's words, his face changed, and his whole body tensed up. For some reason, an unease welled up in his heart at this moment.
Boom!
Then, Monk Wu Nian sensed the source of this unease. His pupils shrank abruptly as he looked at Ye Feng, a look of shock appearing on his face.
He saw that at this moment, Ye Feng's entire body erupted with an extremely terrifying aura. This aura was incomparably cold and sinister, and just a slight touch of it made one feel as if falling into an ice cave.
And at this time, Ye Feng's whole person no longer had the handsome appearance from before. His skin was covered with demonic, as small as tadpoles, densely packed, covering his entire body, making Ye Feng look extremely ferocious.
"This is... Demon?!"
"Ye Feng, you, a dignified top prodigy of the Flying Feather Sect, actually secretly cultivate Demonic practices!"
Monk Wu Nian cried out in alarm, a look of horror flashing across his handsome face. He never expected that Ye Feng would be so mad, actually secretly cultivating Demonic practices!
Not only Monk Wu Nian, but even the Flying Feather Sect disciples also drastically changed their expressions at this moment, looking at the ferocious Ye Feng in disbelief. They never imagined that the object of their worship was actually secretly cultivating Demonic practices?
Demons, by nature, are fond of aggression and war. Wherever they pass, not even grass grows! Demons are the enemy of the entire cultivation world. Facing demons, any cultivator, as long as they have the strength, must kill them.
According to legend, demons were extraterrestrial devils. In ancient times, they invaded the entire Xianlan Continent, wanting to conquer Xianlan Continent and turn the cultivators of Xianlan Continent into their slaves.
The cultivators of Xianlan Continent naturally refused. Whether to preserve the entire Xianlan Continent, or to preserve themselves, they resolutely united and launched a earth-shattering battle against the invading demons!
In that battle, Xianlan Continent ultimately won, but it was also a pyrrhic victory. And side-path inheritances such as alchemists gradually disappeared after that battle.
However, remnants of those demons from that battle still lurked on this continent. However, these demons could no longer cause harm to the continent and could only linger on in a dying state. Therefore, the powerful forces on the continent did not send experts to encircle and suppress them, but instead regarded them as trials for the cultivators of the entire continent.
And the so-called Demon race on the continent is not actually true demons, but cultivators on the continent who cultivated the inherited cultivation techniques left by the demons, and thus evolved into the Demon race.
For example, the Great Demon Xuansha, who ran rampant in the Radiant Sun Empire thousands of years ago, actually obtained the demonic inherited cultivation technique. However, reaching the level of Great Demon Xuansha, he was already able to control the demonic inherited cultivation technique at will, and would not be affected by the violent aura carried in the inherited cultivation technique.
But obviously, Ye Feng at this moment could not yet achieve this level.
After those Demonic Patterns covered Ye Feng's body, his original indifference disappeared. His face was ferocious and incomparably distorted, his eyes blood-red, and an tyrannical aura erupted from his entire body, just like a ferocious beast that had killed countless people.
What made Monk Wu Nian even more wary was not only the tyrannical aura erupting from Ye Feng, but also the cultivation aura Ye Feng was now displaying, which had actually reached the Peak Sovereign Realm!
Such cultivation made Monk Wu Nian feel despair. Ye Feng at the Mid Sovereign Realm had already caused him great trouble, even forcing him to use his full strength to barely gain a slight advantage. And Peak Sovereign Realm, even if he erupted with all his might, he would be unable to resist.
But, he had to resist! Perhaps others could escape, but he, Wu Nian, could not escape, because, he was a Buddha!
Since ancient times, Buddha and Demon cannot coexist. Where there is Buddha, there must be no Demon, where there is Demon, there can be no Buddha!
Even knowing that death was certain, to prove his Buddha heart, he, Monk Wu Nian, would battle the Demon!
While Monk Wu Nian was firming his beliefs, Mu Yunfei and Ling Feiwu and the others, hidden in the distance, also drastically changed their expressions. Looking at Ye Feng, whose body was covered in Demonic Patterns, shock appeared on their faces.
Whether it was Mu Yunfei or Ling Feiwu and the others, their identities were not simple before joining the Divine Immortal Sect. They naturally knew the origin of Demons. Or rather, as long as one was a cultivator, no one would not know the terror of Demons.
They had never imagined that Ye Feng, as a dignified top prodigy of the Flying Feather Sect, would secretly cultivate Demonic practices. If this were to spread out, it would definitely shock the entire Radiant Sun Empire. Even the Flying Feather Sect might be implicated by Ye Feng, and Ye Feng's end would be extremely miserable.
Cultivators have always had zero tolerance for demons, with only a life-or-death outcome. They couldn't understand how Ye Feng had the guts to cultivate Demonic practices?
