Chapter 555: Chapter 555 – Capture and Kill the Buddhist Seed!Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
After swallowing the roasted meat and drinking some water, Wei Xiao Bei finally moved his attention to s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s charred body.
s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was still breathing.
Although the Second Spring Water of Youth alone was not enough to bring s.h.i.+ Yan Kun back from the edge of death, its effects were enhanced after being mixed with the World Tree Sap.
At least, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun could now open his eyes.
However, it needs to be explained that s.h.i.+ Yan Kun lost his eyes from the power of the electric plasma. Most of his body had been completely toasted, let alone his fragile eyes.
Thus, after trying earnestly for a while, he gave up and said in a dejected voice, “Ah ah, Ya ya.”
It was not that s.h.i.+ Yan Kun had become an infant, it was just that his vocal cords were destroyed.
Of course, Wei Xiao Bei did not need to communicate with him, at the moment he only needed him to stay alive.
Wei Xiao Bei took out a dagger and stabbed s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s thighs. Then, he carefully inspected the blood that flowed out, ignoring s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s struggles due to the pain.
In his eyes, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was not human anymore but a creature of the Dust World. He was simply not that different from other monsters at all, even more lowly.
In truth, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun could not help that Wei Xiao Bei did not have a good impression of him.
He had voluntarily turned into a demon, so he could not say anything.
Although Wei Xiao Bei was not certain of the inner demon"s intent, he knew that since s.h.i.+ Yan Kun could pa.s.s the torture of the demon heart, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was not a good person!
If he was a good person, how could it be possible for him to allow a demon to enter and possess himself? Who would he be willing to enter the Demonic Hall of Greed just for some benefits?
Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei was most displeased at the fact that he was attacked by him.
Sure enough, he looked at s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s blood and nodded his head, satisfied.
Under the dusky sky of the Dust World, Wei Xiao Bei could easily see the color of s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s blood.
It was black. To be more accurate, the blood flowing out could already be categorized as non-human. It even emanated a demonic aura that made Wei Xiao Bei uncomfortable.
Thinking about it, Wei Xiao Bei touched the blood flowing out of s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s thigh with his left palm.
In response to the black blood, the Life Altar that was asleep unconsciously responded. It let out a few tendrils and attempted to absorb the black blood.
However, in the next moment, a golden light floated out and surrounded Wei Xiao Bei"s body.
After being touched by the golden light, the black blood on his palm quickly boiled and evaporated, vanis.h.i.+ng without a trace in an instant!
When the golden light appeared, Wei Xiao Bei remained motionless. However, he began to strengthen his [Response Pulse], and at the same time, he activated several abilities.
Ten Lines at a Glance, Deductive Reasoning, Bold and Decisive!
In the next instant, the golden light disappeared.
He remained calm as he once again touched the black blood.
In the next instant, the golden light appeared again, boiling the black blood.
Just like that, Wei Xiao Bei felt bored as he kept touching the black blood, making the golden light appear and disappear over and over again.
s.h.i.+ Yan Kun did not mind this at all.
At this point, s.h.i.+ Yan Kun was the same as dead to him.
Glug glug. Wei Xiao Bei once again fed him a mouthful of the mixture to ensure s.h.i.+ Yan Kun would stay alive for at least half an hour longer.
Truthfully, if one ignored s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s blood, you would think that Wei Xiao Bei was a bloodthirsty monster!
Naturally, even without the black blood, Wei Xiao Bei"s actions were still abnormal.
Who in their right mind would perform the same action more than 1000 times for no reason!
Even in this process, Wei Xiaobei was activating several attribute abilities. This consumption caused him to eat the Immortal Quality Flame Roasted Meat to replenish himself.
By this time, he had already eaten quite a number of Immortal Quality dishes, causing his status to rise up quite a lot.
Other than his vitality"s subattributes both increasing by 1.5 points, his other attributes had also increased by 3 points! His muscles had even increased by 7 points!
Status: (The average adult male"s status value is 10)
Strength: 52.55 (Muscle: 57 [Intermediate Power Burst], St.u.r.diness: 48.1 [Power Crush])
Agility: 45.1 (Hand-eye Coordination: 45.1 [Eagle Eye], Flexibility: 45.1 [Lithe as a Swallow], Reflex:45.1 [Reactive Rebound], Balance: 45.1 [Un.o.bstructed Path])

….
Wei Xiao Bei"s current status had already reached an inhuman level.
Actually, anyone with an attribute exceeding 20 was already inhuman.
Put simply, with Wei Xiao Bei"s strength, even a tank would not be able to defend against the might of a single punch!
His agility had already reached a level that was beyond a helicopter. In other words, he could cover more than 80 meters in just one second!
His other attributes need not be mentioned.
Wei Xiao Bei did not feel bored at all. He should"ve known, but the kind of Buddhist Seed that was pa.s.sively summoned again and again was obviously unbearable.
As time pa.s.sed, the Buddhist Seed finally appeared outside of his body in a weakened state.
“Found you!”
Wei Xiao Bei suddenly opened his eyes! He locked his gaze on the empty s.p.a.ce 10 centimeters away from the top of his head.
To a normal person, there was nothing there.
However, Wei Xiao Bei"s gaze was different.
Name: Buddhist Seed
Description: This object is formed from the condensation of Buddhist Sariputta"s Buddhism and contains a trace of Sariputta"s intent. There are thousands of this object, used to select those with strong Buddhist faith, facilitating entry into the Buddhist gate.
Effect 1: Destroy Evil. Due to the power of Buddhism, the carrier of this object can destroy all evils that latch onto the carrier"s body.
Effect 2: Imperceptible Influence. After carrying this object for a long time, the carrier"s conscience will be influenced, causing the person to lean towards Buddhism.
….
From the looks of it, the Buddhist Seed had no harmful effects. Other than destroying evils, didn"t it only draw a person to Buddhism?
However, for Wei Xiao Bei, this was simply intolerable.
No matter the direction, his consciousness had still been influenced and he had difficulty acknowledging this.
However, compared to the Witch of Greed, Buddhism was much more subtle and gentle.
However, whether it was the Witch of Greed or Buddhism, their end goal was still to pull someone over to their side.
Wei Xiao Bei did not want to become a monk!
This was something he was firm upon.
Thus, Wei Xiao Bei stubbornly wore down the Buddhist Seed"s power. Once the Buddhist power contained in it decreased to a certain level, it stopped hiding in his body.
At this time, Wei Xiao Bei did not hesitate and lifted his left hand above his head and shot out tendrils.
The Buddhist Seed that floated above his head did not stay still. When it saw the tendrils shoot at it, it emitted a golden light that shot towards the skies, in an attempt to escape.
However, Wei Xiao Bei was prepared. The Divine White Mist Great Spear in his hands became White Light that penetrated the Buddhist Seed"s path!
The Divine White Mist Great Spear possessed the power to destroy evil, but this did not mean it could not deal with the Buddhist Seed!
In truth, Wei Xiao Bei already noticed that the power of the Divine White Mist Great Spear could not only suppress evil, but it could also be used against Wei Xiao Bei"s enemies!
In simpler terms, whether spiritual or illusory, if Wei Xiao Bei recognized them as enemies, the Divine White Mist Great Spear could deal damage!
Seeing the incoming Divine White Mist Great Spear, the Buddhist Seed that was shooting upwards, stopped and dodged the spear.
However, this short pause caused it to lose any chance of escaping.
Hundreds of tendrils covered the Buddhist Seed.
Naturally, the Buddhist Seed was not an ordinary object. The tendrils might seem to have completely wrapped it up, but golden light immediately appeared and spread out, blocking the tendrils in an instant.
Just like that, the two sides reached a deadlock.
It must be said that both sides had their advantages and weakness.
The Life Altar was still in the process of evolution and sleeping. The tendrils that shot out were controlled by Wei Xiao Bei, but compared to the tendrils shot out by the Life Altar, Wei Xiao Bei"s were much weaker.
However, the Buddhist Seed was also in a bad state. When Wei Xiao Bei kept prompting the golden light to appear by touching s.h.i.+ Yan Kun"s black blood, it used up a lot of Buddhist power. Otherwise, with its power, it would not be trapped by the tendrils and would break free in an instant.
In this way, the deadlock would end when one side could endure no longer.
However, the Buddhist Seed forgot one thing.
It not only had to eliminate the tendrils that shot at it.
The tendrils were just one of Wei Xiao Bei"s weapons.
Wei Xiao Bei looked like a tiger stalking its prey.
As a result, the Buddhist Seed was in a miserable state.
Wei Xiao Bei didn"t have the chance to sit on the mountain and watch from safety while others fought. That would be too time-consuming. Moreover, the tendrils were his own, so why would he just watch from the sideline?
Thus, while the Buddhist Seed was trapped, Wei Xiao Bei opened up a hole in the web of tendrils and thrust the Divine White Mist Great Spear inside.
