Chapter 936 341: Karmic Fire Consumes the Body, Refining Wuzhou
"Burn him! Burn him!"Jing Qiu ignored the excited shouts from Hel in his ear.
He lowered his head and gazed at his palm, where countless dark red and pitch-black threads twisted together, chilling to the bone. These threads were the entanglements of Karma, also known as sins, serving as the "fuel" for Karmic Fire.
Following these threads of Karma, he saw an obscure and vast "Heaven and Earth," representing Karma.
Karma, tightly linked with destiny, along the Karma Path.
And at this moment, appearing before him, densely interwoven, nearly forming a dark starry sky, was the Karma Net that Wuzhou had been entangled with throughout his life.
At Wuzhou's peak, no matter how overwhelming these Karma threads were, they couldn't touch him.
But now, Wuzhou had been ignited by Ji Jingqiu as the Fire, setting ablaze the Karma he had accumulated, especially the massive Power of Faith and Will stored within the Divine Temple, which was frantically fueling the fire.
When the wall collapses, everyone pushes it; the Karma Net is no exception. At this moment, even if Wuzhou wanted to escape, he was bound by the dense Karma and could only endure the burning Karmic Fire.
But Ji Jingqiu's current focus wasn't on Wuzhou or even Wuzhou's Karma threads.
Instead, it was on his own Karma threads.
Following Hel's suggestion, he proactively ignited his own accumulated Karma, and then, with Wuzhou, they "embraced" the sea of Karmic Fire.
According to Hel, Ji Jingqiu, barely in his early twenties, how much Karma could he possibly have accumulated?
Even if he ignited the Karmic Fire, with the Bodhi Tree unique to the World Venerable Lineage, he could easily get through it.
It's true that Mu Shitian died beneath Karmic Fire years ago, but this guy had endured Karmic Fire more than dozens of times.
But at this moment, Ji Jingqiu was shaken by the Karma threads his own life had entangled.
This Karma Net was certainly no less than Wuzhou's!
Forced to sit with Ji Jingqiu, enduring the burning Karmic Fire, Wuzhou frowned for a moment after seeing the Karmic threads Ji Jingqiu had accumulated.
It seemed even he couldn't understand how a mere Heavenly Person like Ji Jingqiu could have accumulated such Karma at this age.
Could it be Mu Shitian's doing...
But quickly, Wuzhou sneered:
"Is this your reliance?"
"Between you and me, today..."
Before he finished speaking, Ji Jingqiu glanced at him curiously.
As if sensing his thoughts, the Bodhi Tree behind him gently swayed, opening up a Pure Land, a place of clarity, repelling all sorts of karmic forces.
Wuzhou's words came to an abrupt halt.
Just as Hel had said, although Master Mu eventually fell under Karmic Fire, he had been tempered by it many times in his life, relying on this Bodhi Tree.
Seeing Wuzhou's expression darken, Ji Jingqiu relaxed back into researching his huge, intricate Karma Net.
If it weren't for his own Bodhi Tree, he might have been truly harmed by that foolish woman, Lady La, this time.
...
As Ji Jingqiu and Wuzhou confronted each other.
In the corner of the grand hall, You Li, along with the Four Gods Temples' Archbishop and others who had barely survived the aftermath of the great battle, began to scream in pain and anguish.
Almost in an instant, those with weaker abilities had their bodies burned into charcoal.
Among them, the fire on the Archbishop and others was the most intense!
At this moment, they finally understood what the Divine Lord truly feared.
This was an endless Karmic Fire fueled by sinful Karma!
Not just them, even the gods dared not easily dabble with it.
The Human World's endless worries, Bitter Sea's boundlessness, every heart contains evil, everything is touched by Karma, and Karmic Fire can burn through the world's sins along the Karma threads.
A single Karmic Fire may not be powerful, but once ignited, it will not extinguish and will continue to burn the sinful Karma of the attached, growing stronger with the extent of Karma accumulation.
To Gods who absorbed endless Power of Faith and Will, Karmic Fire was like a Dao suppression, a natural enemy.
Even the supreme Gods, if tainted by Karmic Fire, if not decisively cut off, would suffer greatly.
And if the most crucial Divine Power Core was stained by Karmic Fire, it was almost a death sentence.
It is said that the Karmic Fire, which gathers all the sins of the world, can destroy all gods!
"Divine Lord... Divine Lord save me!"
"No... it wasn't me who killed you... it was him! It was the Archbishop's orders!"
Listening to the mad rambling of those driven insane by the burning Karmic Fire, You Li bit his teeth, the suffering from the consuming fire making him almost wish to end it himself, but at this moment, life and death were no longer his to command.
His gaze stayed firmly fixed on Wuzhou's figure.
Why did this person seem utterly unperturbed?!
Clearly, the intensity of the Karmic Fire on him was the strongest in the room, even more than the Divine Lord!
This single fact was enough to be baffling.
Karmic Fire burns by Karma entanglement, could this Wuzhou have more Karma than the Divine Lord?!
Yet, even if so, how could the instigator himself appear entirely unaware of the suffering of the Karmic Fire burning him?!
Could it be the Divine Tree behind him?
With endless resentment and confusion, You Li couldn't withstand the burning of the Karmic Fire either, as his body gradually turned to ash.
With You Li's death, only Ji Jingqiu and Wuzhou remained in the hall.
The roaring Karmic Fire gradually extinguished around them, without burning through even the Void, and yet it easily obliterated the followers of the Four Gods Temples.
Ji Jingqiu and Wuzhou sat facing each other.
The power of the Karmic Fire on Wuzhou was terrifying, as if it could burn all realms, collapse eternity, adjusting its power according to the realms of those it adhered to.
Ji Jingqiu found that compared to Wuzhou's Karma threads, those he was involved with seemed even more illusive, as if not deeply entwined or yet due for repayment.
