Chapter 2172 Praise and Killing
After a while, the short and thin Buddha, the strongest among the five Buddhas who appeared in public in Xumi Temple, personally delivered six Buddha fruits to Fang Bai and other six immortals.
Except for Fang Bai who still maintained a calm expression, the other five immortals' faces turned red with excitement and their whole bodies were trembling slightly when they took the Buddha fruit with both hands.
It’s no wonder that achieving Buddhahood means being able to advance to a small realm. For them, this is worth decades or even hundreds of years of hard work. How can they not be excited?
Fang Bai's reaction was dull because he had eaten Buddha Fruit in his previous life, and for him, although Buddha Fruit could help him advance, it was not enough.
Now Fang Bai wished he could immediately regain the peak combat power of his previous life, and then summon his close friends and disciples who were hiding in the immortal world to go and punish the eight immortal emperors who besieged him.
"In this battle at Cuizhu Mountain, we harvested four Buddha Fruits, which is really unexpected! Even this Master is deeply impressed!"
After the short and thin Buddha gave away the four Buddha fruits, his eyes swept over the faces of Fang Bai, Sun Dasheng, Qingzhu Fairy, and Bingyun Fairy, and a smile appeared on his face that was as dry as tree bark.
Although he is short and thin, and looks unremarkable on the surface, he is actually a long-established peak expert in the Immortal King Realm. He naturally has an aura of calmness and self-power, and the people in Cuizhu Mountain who are swept by his gaze are The Immortal, the Five Immortals of Binggu, Sun Dasheng and Demon Slaughter all felt an invisible pressure, and their backs couldn't help but bend a little.
Facing the peak of the Immortal King Realm, Fang Bai did not want to behave differently, so he did not deliberately use his immortal magic to resist the pressure of the short and thin Buddha. Like the immortals around him, his waist and back were slightly bent.
The former peak Immortal Emperor bowed his head to a powerful Immortal King Realm, which was considered a kind of humiliation.
Fang Bai in his previous life would naturally not be able to endure it, and there was no need to endure it.
But in this life, he was reborn and walked step by step from the secular world. Fang Bai's mentality was tempered a lot, and he knew that only by keeping a low profile and forbearing could he hope to regain his peak strength and avenge the Eight Immortal Emperors.
The short and thin Buddha in front of him was named Master Kumu. Fang Bai had seen him when he participated in the Buddha Fruit Ceremony in his previous life. However, Master Kumu at that time was only a powerful person in the Immortal Realm. He had been promoted to the Immortal King in a thousand years. At the peak of his realm, his qualifications are quite impressive.
As the nominal "leader" of Fang Bai and other immortals, Facing Master Kumu, a powerful Immortal King Realm, Fairy Haoyue forcibly stood up and responded in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I'm so impressed by the immortal! I can get four Buddha fruits, probably We have better luck!"
Master Kumu shook his head and said: "Luck is only a small part, strength is the key! These four little immortal friends all have innate spiritual roots, and their path to immortality is boundless! If they are given another thousand years, their achievements will be incredible!"
It is a supreme honor to be praised by a powerful person at the peak of the Immortal King Realm. If it were any other immortal, he would probably be in a daze and not know where he is.
But in Fang Bai's opinion, when Master Kumu said these words, his volume increased a bit, as if he intended to be heard by the hundreds of thousands of immortals around him.
"This is obviously flattering and will bring trouble for us!"
Fang Bai thought this in his heart, looking around, he found that there were thousands of malicious eyes cast on him and other immortals.
"It seems that there will be a lot more troubles on the way out of Mount Sumeru!"
Fang Bai smiled bitterly, and then his eyes became cold.
"If you want to snatch the Buddha's fruit, go ahead! My blood-drinking sword doesn't drink much blood recently, and it's already very thirsty!"
Fairy Haoyue also felt that something was wrong with Master Kumu's words. She frowned and glanced at him, but did not dare to say anything.
"Buddha fruit is the most precious treasure in the immortal world, and there are many people who covet it. After you leave Mount Sumeru, be more careful along the way!"
After Master Kumu gave a "kind" warning, he left Fang Bai and other immortals with an incomprehensible smile, and then left step by step.
"This old guy is not a good guy!"
When Master Kumu walked away, Fang Bai sent a message to Fairy Haoyue.
Fairy Haoyue looked shocked: "Senior, what you mean is..."
Fang Bai sneered and said, "The old guy said that there are many coveters... In fact, their Xumi Temple is the biggest coveter!"
Fairy Haoyue thought about Fang Bai's words for a moment, with a look of realization on her face, and said in shock: "Would Xumi Temple do such a thing? Are they not afraid of provoking the anger of the immortals?"
Fang Bai snorted and said: "They did it without anyone noticing. What can other immortals do without real evidence? As far as I know, the Buddha Fruit Ceremony has been held for many times, and many Buddha Fruits have been sold to immortals from all walks of life. However, quite a few of the immortals who captured the Buddha Fruit died, and the Buddha Fruit was missing... Hehe, I checked this matter specifically and found that the Buddha Fruit actually returned to Xumi Temple..."
Fang Bai's identity in his previous life was the invincible War Emperor and the Master of the Imperial Palace. Naturally, Fairy Haoyue would not doubt his words.
"I didn't expect Xumi Temple to be so despicable and shameless... In this case, how can we keep the four Buddha fruits? Senior... is there any way to deal with it?"
Fairy Haoyue looked at Fang Bai with a frustrated look on her face.
She originally placed her hope in Fang Bai, but then she thought about it. Now Fang Baikong has a magical secret skill, but because of his low cultivation level, he cannot exert its due power at all. If the Buddha of Xumi Temple really comes to snatch the Buddha As a result, they can only watch helplessly, and they will be lucky to be able to save their lives.
Fang Bai smiled and said: "There must be more than one immortal who covets the Buddha's fruit in us. And with the strength of Xumi Temple, they will definitely not be the first to take action and be the last oriole... Just watch and wait. After we leave Mount Sumeru, it will be very lively along the way... Let them go dog-eat-dog! As for our response, I already have..."
Fang Bai continued to transmit messages and told Fairy Haoyue how to deal with it.
After hearing this, Fairy Haoyue's eyes widened and she almost screamed out in surprise, but in the end she held it back and thought to herself: "As Senior Fang said, those immortals who are preparing to snatch the Buddha's fruit include the Buddha of Xumi Temple. , I’m afraid everything will be unlucky..."
What exactly Fang Bai and Fairy Haoyue said, apart from the two immortals in charge, other immortals have no way of knowing.
Sun Dasheng, Tu Mo, the immortals of Cuizhu Mountain, and the Five Immortals of Ice Valley were immersed in excitement and excitement after receiving the Buddha Fruit, looking forward to improving their cultivation and greatly increasing their strength. They had no idea of the dangers they were about to face.
Those immortals who failed to obtain Buddhahood looked at Sun Dasheng and other immortals who were cheering and celebrating. They all had complicated expressions, some were envious, some were jealous, some were indifferent, and some were sneering...
Xumi Temple has always been hospitable. After the Buddha Fruit Ceremony, a fairy banquet was held in the giant square and fairy fruits and wine were provided for the immortals who participated in the Buddha Fruit War to taste.
The disciples from the major immortal sects who came with them had no chance to participate and could only wait patiently at the foot of Mount Xumi.
