Mad God Evolution
Chapter 1344 - 1344 1261

1344: Chapter 1261 1344: Chapter 1261 “How come?” asked Lv Zhong, his face cold as he looked at Virūḍhaka Buddha.

“If you’d rather not have been saved by me, then I can oblige and obliterate your body and spirit—”

Lv Zhong had neither particular fondness nor animosity for Virūḍhaka Buddha.

Despite once fighting a fierce battle over the Treasure Star in the [Mystical Sand Chaos Forest], there were no genuine grievances between them.

Moreover, seeing Sun Wu, the Saint of Soldiers, in a good light, he had taken the opportunity to save Virūḍhaka Buddha.

But now, this fellow was actually looking at him with a suspicious eye, which instantly filled Lv Zhong with discontent, his expression as dark as still waters.

He was seriously considering dealing with Virūḍhaka Buddha right then and there.

Startled by Lv Zhong’s gaze, Virūḍhaka Buddha jumped in shock and hastily brought his hands together in a respectful Buddhist salute, “Amitabha, please…

don’t misunderstand.

This…

this monk was just…

simply didn’t expect Taoist Lv to be so noble and magnanimous, repaying a grudge with kindness.

I am ashamed, I have indeed judged a gentleman’s heart with the pettiness of a lesser person!”

In the past, together with Indestructible Buddha and Amitabha Buddha, he hadn’t gained the slightest advantage against Lv Zhong.

Now, on his own and facing Lv Zhong, he had no self-righteous air left.

Most importantly, he suddenly realized something.

Had there been no one to intervene just before, with the strength and special abilities of that mysterious cockroach beast comparable to a peak Quasi-Sage, he and Sun Wu the Saint of Soldiers could have very well met their end.

Insect Clan powerhouses were notoriously savage and relentless until their goals were achieved.

These creatures had no concept of mercy or morality.

At that moment, he and Sun Wu had been utterly powerless.

It would have been odd for such easy prey to be spared, especially since countless Contribution Points could be taken from them.

But now, they were alive and well.

And that super vicious cockroach beast had vanished without a trace—either slain by Lv Zhong or driven away by him…

While Virūḍhaka Buddha previously harbored doubts, he wasn’t foolish; a simple deduction revealed that Lv Zhong had indeed saved him and Sun Wu.

Realizing this, Virūḍhaka Buddha also came to respect Lv Zhong, saluting him reverently.

“Forget it, I’m not interested in your Buddhist salute,” Lv Zhong waved dismissively, not even glancing at Virūḍhaka Buddha.

His gaze fell on Sun Wu, to whom he behaved with the respect due to a junior, “Old Sun, you are my idol, and moreover, a fellow villager who left Earth like me.

If I find time, I will visit the World of Ancient Heroes to seek a discussion with you.

After all, I’m keen to gain insight into the grandeur of your Path of Soldiers—”

“Haha, so we are fellow villagers.” Sun Wu also became excited, quickly replying, “It’s my desire to discuss philosophy with a benefactor.

Should you visit, I shall welcome you with a clean mat.”

“Definitely!” Lv Zhong laughed and made a promise, “I have matters to attend to at the moment, so I will take my leave first.

See you in the World of Ancient Heroes—”

“Take care!” Sun Wu also cupped his hands in farewell to Lv Zhong.

“And I’m off…”

As his words fell, Lv Zhong disappeared into thin air.

“Actually…

actually, I’m also a fellow villager from Earth…” Virūḍhaka Buddha watched the spot where Lv Zhong disappeared, his lips twitching.

Virūḍhaka Buddha was truly frustrated.

In the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, banding together among people of the same origins was crucial.

Having fellow villagers was naturally a strong bond.

Yet, Lv Zhong—this fellow villager—seemed to have a very low opinion of him, Virūḍhaka Buddha, and all those from Buddha’s Door, which was almost a significant loss for them.

Had Lv Zhong not been so aberrant, the people of Buddha’s Door wouldn’t have to be so resentful.

The stronger Lv Zhong became, and the greater his influence grew, the more suffocated the people of Buddha’s Door felt.

Originally, such a fellow villager with super potential and bizarre talents could have been befriended!

But now, a deep rift had formed between Buddha’s Door and Lv Zhong.

“Although Lv Zhong may be a bit temperamental, he’s by no means evil.

In fact, he possesses infinite merit.

How could we from Buddha’s Door have come into conflict with him?

Randeng, the Ancient Buddha, you may very well have made a mistake—” Virūḍhaka Buddha deeply sighed.

Sun Wu looked disdainfully at the sighing figure beside him and snorted coldly, “Bald monk, for the sake of Taoist Lv Zhong, I won’t bother with you this time.

But if you attack someone from the World of Ancient Heroes again, even if you were once a person of Earth, I will show you no mercy—”

As he spoke, Sun Wu waved his feather fan with his left hand, and a mysterious phoenix appeared.

With a thought, he immediately flew onto its back and sped off towards the north.

“Infinite Life Buddha!” Virūḍhaka Buddha chanted loudly as he held the All Buddha’s Demon-transforming Bowl, which abruptly enlarged to carry him swiftly away.

***************

All along the way, Lv Zhong concentrated on sensing the Quasi-Sages in Zone 3.

What secretly made Lv Zhong gasp in astonishment was that now, within the entirety of Zone 3, fewer than six hundred Quasi-Sages remained alive.

“Damn, how long has it been?

There are only so few Quasi-Sages left in Zone 3?” exclaimed Lv Zhong, feeling a chill in his heart.

More than thirty thousand Quasi-Sages had entered Zone 3.

Each of these Quasi-Sage powerhouses was a crafty old thief who had lived for countless years.

All of them were exceptionally experienced.

Almost everyone crawled out from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

But now, within the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb, had so many really fallen?

Lv Zhong suddenly became somewhat confused.

Could it be that the attraction of the treasures within the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb was just that great?

Not only had it lured a large number of Quasi-Sages to break through, but did they not know that “there’s no such thing as a free lunch” in the world?

Shaking his head silently, Lv Zhong, through the magnetic field of the Great Path, monitored all of the Quasi-Sages.

At this time, Lv Zhong realized that among the more than six hundred Quasi-Sages who had fought their way out of over thirty thousand, not a single one was an easy opponent.

Not only did each of them have an astonishing number of Contribution Points accumulated, but each was also extremely cunning.

However, Lv Zhong didn’t place much importance on Contribution Points.

Now, he could consider the entire Hongmeng Dragon Pearl as his own.

Having so-called Contribution Points wasn’t really of much use.

In this way, Lv Zhong also became disinclined to kill his enemies wholeheartedly.

As long as they did not provoke him, Lv Zhong, he wouldn’t kill someone just for Contribution Points.

Of course, if he encountered someone from the Limitless Demon Saint Lineage or the creepy Insect creatures from the Mysterious Abyss Insect Domain, Lv Zhong would definitely not be polite.

However, these two powers had almost been completely annihilated.

In the current Hongmeng Dragon Tomb Zone 3, you could no longer find fish that had slipped through the net like the “Mystical Hidden Cockroach.”

…

With no more Insect creatures from the Mysterious Abyss Insect Domain and no Demon Emperors from the Limitless Demon Saint Lineage in Zone 3, Lv Zhong decisively returned to Zone 2.

With even the Quasi-Sages one by one falling to Lv Zhong, how could the Profound Immortals, Daluo Golden Immortals, and Ancient Immortals (Immortal Emperors) in Zone 2 be his match?

In just less than three days, Lv Zhong had almost completely dealt with all the Insect creatures from the Mysterious Abyss Insect Domain and the Devil Cultivators from the Limitless Demon Saint Lineage on the ten islands of Zone 2.

Just as Lv Zhong was feeling utterly uninspired and bored, the Divine Dragon weapon spirit transformed into a transparent miniature dragon that appeared out of nowhere beside him, excitedly speaking into his ear, “Master, are you also uninterested in these low-level fairies, demons, buddhas, and devils?”

“How so?” Lv Zhong asked indifferently.

“Haha, Master, I also find it pointless to play with these trash as toys.

Just so happens, five years have passed outside the Hongmeng Dragon Tomb.

It’s time to open Zone 4 of the Hongmu Dragon Tomb.

This Zone 4 is specially prepared for Sages.

I wonder if you, Master, would be interested in joining me to toy with Sages?” At this point, the Dragon Pearl weapon spirit was excited to the extreme.

It loved to play.

Especially playing with Sages as chess pieces and toys, controlling their life and death, that was what truly excited it.

If it had been before, indeed its Zone 4 would have opened, albeit with a limited number of spots, and access to a very small number of Sages would have been restricted.

After all, although it was a Tao Artifact, its potential for advancement was not high.

It couldn’t possibly absorb a large number of Sages.

Once too many Sages poured in, it wouldn’t be playing with Sages anymore, but very likely, it would be the Sages playing with it.

But now things were different!

With the presence of Lv Zhong as its master, it could properly scheme against even more Sages.

It believed, with such a master with incredibly strong Destiny supporting it, along with his “Great Annihilation Pearl” and “Nine Xuan Cold Dragon Ice Coffin,” two major Tao Artifacts, it could certainly indulge in wildly playing on.

It trusted that with Lv Zhong’s cooperation and two other stronger Tao Artifacts in tow, it could toy with far more Sages than ever before—easily over ten times more.

Even, it vaguely intended to create some trouble for this new master.

When it came down to it, it still somewhat resented being forced to acknowledge Lv Zhong as its master.

Watching the Dragon Pearl weapon spirit bubbling with excitement, Lv Zhong sneered inwardly: “Although this guy is highly experienced, he probably has no idea about the terror of ‘Soul Implant Mirror Technique.’ He dares plot against me?”

At this moment, Lv Zhong had thoroughly sentenced the Dragon Pearl weapon spirit to death in his heart.

“With your abilities, how many Sages can you play with?” Lv Zhong looked at the Dragon Pearl weapon spirit with an indifferent gaze, asking lightly.

The Dragon Pearl weapon spirit had no idea that its thoughts were already faintly perceived by Lv Zhong, and it confidently said, “Previously, I could suppress about a hundred Sages!

And at most, I could suppress two Venerable Sages.”

The wily thing quietly raised the number of Sages it could suppress to about twice its previous capacity.

Even the number of Venerable Sages it claimed it could suppress was overstated by one.

Lv Zhong calmly asked, “And now?”

“Now, with Master’s help, I can suppress five hundred Sages, and the number of Venerable Sages I can suppress should exceed five…” the Dragon Pearl weapon spirit excitedly said, seemingly very confident in this ability and strength.

“Hehe…” Lv Zhong chuckled softly, and suddenly his eyes sparked with intensity as he stared deeply at the Dragon Pearl weapon spirit, “If that’s the case, then go and bring in five hundred Sages.

I can help you suppress four hundred Sages, as well as three Venerable Sages.

The remaining hundred Sages and two Venerable Sages are up to you…”

“Good…

What?” The Dragon Pearl weapon spirit first felt a burst of ecstasy, but then it realized the implications and its face drastically changed.
