Chapter 2297 - 2297 Tomb Keeper

2297 Tomb Keeper

The Asura was tall and burly but now, he was kneeling on the ground with a seemingly tiny figure standing on his raised arms.

However, that figure trampled the Asura beneath its feet such that the latter could not raise his head!

The monks of Asura Monastery widened their eyes in shock!

An Arhat expert of the Buddhist monasteries had spent a lot of effort to subdue this Asura so that the latter could protect Asura Monastery.

To think that the Asura would be suppressed by the purple-robed man in a few rounds and could not move at all!

What was even more frightening was that the purple-robed man destroyed the Asura in melee combatit was purely a fight between blood qi and body!

Actually, if the Asura had released his full strength right away, he might have been able to last a little longer in the hands of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

Earlier on, his initiative was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by the Martial Dao Prime Body and he was subdued by the latter before he could release his brute force completely.

Your monastery doesnt have the Saraca Fruit?

The Martial Dao Prime Body trampled the Asura beneath his feet but did not kill him and asked again.

The reason why he came this time round was to save Yan Beichen.

There was no deep feud with Asura Monastery before him and there was no need for him to start a ma.s.sacre.

The Ashoka Tree has long shattered. Youre too late!

A monk sneered, If you want the Saraca Fruit, you can head to Avici. It might be there!

Alright, thats where Im headed.

The Martial Dao Prime Body replied indifferently.

The monk was stunned. He had merely mentioned it casually earlier on and had not expected the purple-robed man to want to head to Avici.

Notwithstanding the Heavenly World, even in the entire upper world, Avici was a notorious forbidden ground that even Emperors would not dare to explore!

Entering Avici was equivalent to committing suicide!

Ever since Avici existed, countless experts have wanted to explore its secrets. However, none of them came out alive!

Similar to a bottomless black hole, Avici could devour everything!

What are you talking about?

The monk was still in disbelief as he hollered softly, Do you know what sort of a place Avici is?

The Martial Dao Prime Body ignored the monks of Asura Monastery and in a flash, led Heavenly Wolf forward, disappearing from their line of sight before long.

Senior brother, what should we do?

A monk said, The abbots Dao Heart has collapsed and hes already in Qi Deviation. Hes in a daze. Should we send a message to the Arhat experts of Putuo Monastery?

Send someone to follow the purple-robed cultivator first and see where he is going.

Another monk said in a deep voice, If he truly enters Avici, we dont have to bother about him. In any case, once he enters Avici, hes as good as dead.

Alright!

A monks figure flashed and he chased in the direction of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

Asura Monastery was extremely vast and the Martial Dao Prime Body advanced. After walking for about 15 minutes, he finally saw the wall of Asura Monasterys backyard.

The Martial Dao Prime Body brought Heavenly Wolf and was about to cross the wall to leave Asura Monastery when he suddenly stopped and s.h.i.+fted his gaze to a corner in the backyard.

There was an una.s.suming tomb with a dilapidated straw hut beside it that was on the verge of collapse.

That was nothing much. The only strange thing was that an old monk was sitting on a tombstone with his back facing the Martial Dao Prime Body.

The old monks back was hunched and he looked withered. Raising his head slightly, his white brows were almost slumped over his shoulders as he gazed in the direction of the Pure Land of Bliss with a peaceful expressionit was unknown what he was looking at.

The old monks posture was a little strange.

Sitting on someones tombstone was somewhat disrespectful to the dead.

What puzzled the Martial Dao Prime Body even more was that although he had clearly released his spirit consciousness to scan the entire Asura Monastery earlier on, he did not sense the old monks existence!

The spirit consciousness of the Martial Dao Prime Body scanned the old monk.

He was only a low-level Black Immortal and his lifespan was almost up. He exuded a twilight aura and did not have much time left.

The Martial Dao Prime Body felt that there was something special about this long-browed old monk. However, he could not pinpoint the exact uniqueness.

Reverend, may I know your Dharmic t.i.tle?

The Martial Dao Prime Body descended and arrived beside the long-browed old monk, cupping his fists and asking.

The long-browed old monk turned around slowly and glanced at the Martial Dao Prime Body before looking at Heavenly Wolf at the side. There was no fluctuation in his hazy eyes nor was there any change in his expression.

I dont have any Dharmic t.i.tle. Im just a tomb keeper.

The long-browed old monk replied indifferently, as though he was not interested in the Martial Dao Prime Body and Heavenly Wolf at all. He retracted his gaze after a mere glance.

How did Asura Monastery appear here?

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.

Around tens of thousands of years ago, there was a huge commotion over there.

The long-browed old monk raised his skinny arm and pointed in a direction from afar. The Martial Dao Prime Body checked against the map and saw that it was in the direction of Avici of Tie Wei Mountain!

Heavenly Wolf had once said that tens of thousands of years ago, something huge seemed to have happened in Avici, causing him and the h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod to fall to the lower worlds at the same time.

The long-browed old monk said, After that, monks of the Pure Land built a monastery here to watch that area. If there is any activity, the Pure Land can know about it as soon as possible.

The Martial Dao Prime Body nodded to himself.

That made sense. A mere black-grade sect was sufficient to keep watch for any activity around Tie Wei Mountain which was nearby.

Who are the people buried in the tombs here?

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked again.

The long-browed old monk replied, They were all monks who pa.s.sed away in meditation in the monastery.

Why isnt there a name on the tombstone of the tomb beneath you, Reverend?

Thats because hes not dead yet.

Whose tomb is this?

Mine.

Before the old monk died, he had already prepared his tombstone in advance.

Furthermore, the long-browed old monk was sitting on his tombstone in a calm manner, as though he had already seen through everything and was waiting for death to descend.

An indescribably strange feeling rose in the heart of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

Suddenly, the hem of his clothes rustled.

The Martial Dao Prime Body glanced sideways and saw Heavenly Wolf biting the hem of his clothes with a lowered head, tugging gently to urge him to leave.

The Martial Dao Prime Body took a deep breath and bid farewell with cupped fists. The long-browed old monk did not move at all and did not even look at him.

The Martial Dao Prime Body soared into the air and continued in the direction of Tie Wei Mountain with Heavenly Wolf.

You knew that old monk?

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.

No.

After walking far away, Heavenly Wolf let out a long breath, as though he was relieved of a burden. But for some reason, that old man gave me a sinister feeling. Its especially uncomfortable to be with him.

The way he looked at me earlier on made my fur stand on end!

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not feel that way.

Furthermore, he did not sense any hostility or killing intent from the long-browed old monk and his spirit perception did not react at all.

That old man was really strange. Hes not dead yet but hes already prepared a tomb for himself in advance. Isnt he afraid of bad luck? Heavenly Wolf mumbled again.

Tomb keeper, tomb keeper

The Martial Dao Prime Body murmured softly in deep thought.
