BXBX NOVEL Chapter 545: Retrieval
Chapter 545: Retrieval
Even at that time, the sealed object still didn’t have absolutely no reaction at all to the Buddha’s aura… But the laws left by Gu Nan were not affected by the Buddha\'s light at all.
If this was truly the case, then Three Buddha Heaven may have suffered a huge loss this time.
But before the young monk could figure out how to provide evidence for this, the bad news had already descended from the sky.
The instant the ceiling of Three Buddha Temple collapsed, Monk Fa Kong had already stood up suddenly, chanting a Buddha\'s name. Golden light reappeared in the sky, pushing back the fallen roof.
Fa Kong recognized the intruder at a glance and immediately said, "Amitabha. Benefactor Gu Nan, this matter is actually a mis—"
Before he could finish saying "misunderstanding", Gu Nan’s fist hit Monk Fa Kong\'s head first.
After all, Monk Fa Kong had witnessed Gu Nan\'s fearsome strength and was also in Three Buddha Heaven at the moment. Since he knew he couldn\'t avoid Gu Nan\'s punch, he didn’t even try to dodge it.
His whole body shook, and a Buddhist halo slowly rose up behind him. He now had three heads and eight arms, and his whole body turned into gold, like a diamond-hard body.
Combining the power of Three Buddha Heaven into one body and hardening his body to resist Gu Nan\'s punch—Monk Fa Kong indeed accomplished that.
Although the punch created the sound of metals clashing, Fa Kong was not directly destroyed by this strike.
Instead, the splash damage from this terrifying punch caused a shockwave in the main hall of Three Buddha Temple. Most of the monks were directly sent flying, and many of them died.
Monk Fa Kong also saw this and revealed a compassionate expression. "Since Benefactor is not an evil demon, why bother with murder? If Benefactor is dissatisfied with this humble monk, why don’t this humble monk receive three of Benefactor’s punches—"
"Sure!" Gu Nan agreed straightforwardly and threw a punch at his head again.
The corners of Monk Fa Kong\'s lips twitched slightly. He wanted to say that those "three punches" were not without conditions, but it was a pity that Gu Nan never paid attention to his words from the start.
Regardless of whether there were conditions, what should be fought would still be fought.
The diamond-hard body reappeared, and this time, the sound of metals colliding was even louder, even to the point of being ear-piercing, forcibly distorting the surrounding laws. The monks were all running away with their ears covered, unable to withstand the power of a Unified Dao battle.
To be accurate, it couldn\'t be considered a battle. It was just Gu Nan\'s unilateral beating of Monk Fa Kong.
This time, Gu Nan no longer struck one punch at a time, instead attacking like a violent storm. His barrage of punches landed like bullets, beating Monk Fa Kong into a sieve.
No matter how powerful his hardened body was, it still couldn’t withstand such furious attacks. Monk Fa Kong couldn’t even utter a sound before he was smashed into countless pieces by Gu Nan.
Seeing that he wasn’t in a hurry to revive himself and throw his life away again, Gu Nan also stopped paying attention to him, his eyes falling on the young monk who spoke up before.
"Where are my laws?" Gu Nan asked as he patted the young monk on the shoulder.
"Amitabha." The young monk stood up. He was one of the few monks who was not affected by the shockwave. "Although Benefactor is not an evil demon, you are more murderous than a real demon. Forgive this monk for being unable to answer."
Gu Nan glanced at him. "You’re not afraid of death?"
The young monk showed a peaceful smile. "This monk is not."
"Then are you afraid that they will die?" Gu Nan pointed to a monk lying on the ground. Because he’d heard the sound produced by laws, he was currently bleeding from all seven orifices and lying on the ground, his vital signals growing weaker and weaker.
The next second, Gu Nan stamped down on the monk\'s head, causing his head to explode and splashing blood onto the young monk\'s face.
"You… You…" The little monk raised his head in shock and pointed at Gu Nan, speechless for a long time.
"Where are my laws?" Gu Nan asked again coldly.
The young monk gritted his teeth and said nothing. Unfortunately, after witnessing the deaths of several more monks, he could no longer hold his silence and personally took Gu Nan to the sealing location.
In fact, it wasn’t hard to find the place where Gu Nan\'s laws were sealed. After all, Three Buddha Temple was only so big; he could always find it if he just walked around a few more times. It\'s just that Gu Nan was too lazy to look for it by himself.
There were still monks standing guard in the temple. They were spared if they pretended not to see the two. But if anyone dared to come forward, they naturally wouldn’t be able to escape Gu Nan\'s vicious hands.
After a while, the law of shadows returned to him, and Gu Nan left Three Buddha Heaven, leaving only a field of wreckage of what used to be Three Buddha Temple.
And after this news spread, the people who’d been arguing about whether Gu Nan would silently withdraw from history might finally be able to stop.
Of course, not even the most optimistic people expected Gu Nan to return to Three Buddha Heaven in just five years and give the great monks a hard slap in the face.
……
The first organization to receive news that Gu Nan retrieved his laws was none other than the Heaven-God Alliance.
In Zi Luo Heaven, Zhuangxuan and Immortal Empress Taisheng stood behind Zi Luo Elder, listening to him recount the battle in Three Buddha Heaven.
As a Unified Dao cultivator, Zi Luo Elder paid careful attention and did not miss the beginning or end of the battle inside Three Buddha Heaven.
"Senior Gu Nan has an extraordinary background. It may not be a bad thing for the organization to draw a clear line with him," Zhuangxuan spoke up after a few minutes of silence.
His mind was clearer than anyone else and knew that people like Gu Nan couldn\'t be easily controlled. Rather than forcing him to stay in the organization, it was better for them to have nothing to do with each other.
Immortal Empress Taisheng responded with the same silence. She remembered the time when Gu Nan had not yet entered Unified Dao or even when he just stepped into that realm…That seemed like yesterday.
This world\'s common sense regarding cultivation had been broken by him time and time again, and this time was no exception.
Zi Luo Elder sighed softly. "Xue Ren couldn\'t see through this, so he died. Zhuangxuan, the organization is in your hands. I hope you will not learn from him in the future, but learn more from your master."
Daoist Lingyang inexplicably resigned from his position as the organization’s manager and even gave up his astral world, going to the World of Gods to develop from scratch again. This was indeed a bit strange.
Zhuangxuan slowly raised his head when his master was mentioned. "Is Master still a member of the organization?"
"Of course." Zi Luo Elder smiled. "Your master has always been in the organization."
……
After Gu Nan took back his laws, he quickly returned to his own Divine Kingdom without further delay.
During this period, he also stopped by the Gap World in passing to have another look. Fu Cheng did a good job monitoring the players.
Per Gu Nan\'s request, she monitored every player who advanced to the Second Round, first monitoring their vital signals, and then their living habits and other details.
However, as the monitoring work deepened, Gu Nan did not receive the results he wanted. Instead, he only managed to prove one thing—in the Earth ruled by the Federation a few hundred years after his time, public security really was quite good. None of the players met any accidents.
However, Gu Nan wasn’t too worried, because a Third Round or above player had yet to appear, so nothing could be proved yet.
All Gu Nan could do now was wait—wait for progress on the project in the Gap World and news from Jiu Po.
