Chapter 411: Chapter 167: Charm Ancestor and Buddha Master

As for the two Human Puppets, they remained on the ship.

“How is this possible?”

“That young master and that lady… they’re flying?”

“Am I seeing things?”

At that moment, the mortal crew members on the ship were all gawking, utterly dumbfounded.

Then, a look of horror flashed in the eyes of some as they realized why Xu Lei had been so audacious earlier.

Meanwhile, Xu Lei and Bai Ling paid no mind to what the mortal crew members were thinking.

The two of them flew on, crossing a stretch of turbulent sea before heading straight for an island.

Bai Ling’s Creepy Spirit had previously spied the two Enchantresses swimming to a small island in the middle of the sea.

It was unclear what their purpose was on the island.

However, this was a golden opportunity, and Xu Lei had no intention of letting it slip by.

If the two Enchantresses had remained in the water, it would have been difficult for Xu Lei to use his explosives.

But since they had come ashore on the island, the situation was perfect.

He just needed to plant a large amount of explosives somewhere on the island, and he could blow them to kingdom come.

Initially, Xu Lei had only intended to follow them and observe. If they had stayed in the water, he wouldn’t have acted, instead waiting for them to return to the mainland before figuring out his next move.

But now that they were on an island, there was no need to wait for them to return to the mainland.

After landing on the island, however, Xu Lei didn’t act immediately. Instead, he found a place to hide quietly.

He wanted to first observe their intentions. If they were looking for some kind of Treasure, he would find a way to snatch it.

But after the Creepy Spirit observed them for a while, Xu Lei realized he had been overthinking things.

They hadn’t come here to find any Treasure or riches.

It turned out the Charm Ancestor wanted to undergo Ascension and had come here to find a suitable location for it.

They were scurrying all over the island, scouting for a suitable Tribulation Crossing Land.

Ultimately, they chose a spot near the center of the island.

But the Charm Ancestor didn’t immediately begin Crossing the Tribulation.

After all, they had been swimming across the ocean for over seven days and were quite exhausted.

They must have avoided using their Demonic Power while swimming in the sea.

They would only use a sliver of Demonic Power when they had to evade large sea creatures like whales.

As a result, both their physical stamina and Demonic Power had been depleted.

Although the consumption of Demonic Power was minimal, he had to be in peak condition to face the Tribulation Crossing.

So, the two Enchantresses found a spot on the island and took shelter in a crevice between several large rocks.

They ate, drank, practiced Cultivation, and slept there to recuperate. Of course, it was mainly the Charm Ancestor who was recovering. Mei Xiong did all the work, waiting on the Charm Ancestor hand and foot.

At this point, Xu Lei decided it was time to act.

After all, now that he knew their chosen Tribulation Crossing Land, he could deduce the likely path they would take to get there.

Naturally, this meant he could bury a large quantity of explosives along their path.

「Under the cover of night.」

Xu Lei dug to bury the explosives, with Bai Ling helping. The two used their Magical Power to dig, aiming for speed. They couldn’t afford to waste time, lest the two Enchantresses discover them.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. The explosives were buried without the two Enchantresses noticing a thing.

For the first half of the night, Mei Xiong stood watch while the Charm Ancestor slept. They switched for the second half.

They rested for another full day before finally leaving the cave and heading toward the Tribulation Crossing Land.

They walked instead of flying, not wanting to waste any Demonic Power.

And just as they walked over the spot where the explosives were buried, Xu Lei detonated them.

BOOM!

A terrifying explosion ripped through the island.

It blew a fifth of the small island apart.

Xu Lei had prepared a full one thousand five hundred backpack-sized Explosive Packages for this occasion!

Such a massive quantity, all detonated at once.

“AHH!” Mei Xiong’s blood-curdling scream echoed from within the shockwave of the blast!

Most of the cry was drowned out by the explosion, only a faint trace escaping.

This was only because the Charm Ancestor actually had a Protective Magical Artifact, a string of glowing Buddhist Beads that manifested to shield them.

But it was useless; the beads were instantly blasted apart.

Mei Xiong was already coughing up blood, but the Charm Ancestor somehow endured. A Spatial Talisman appeared in his hand, and he instantly teleported away, reappearing on the other side of the island!

Even so, being at the epicenter of such a terrifying explosion was devastating.

The Charm Ancestor also spat out a mouthful of blood.

“How is this possible? Why does this power… feel so familiar?”

Mei Xiong was on the brink of death, his arms broken, as he collapsed beside the Charm Ancestor. “Could it be him? But… didn’t that guy die all those years ago?”

The Charm Ancestor’s expression was one of horrified disbelief. His heart pounded with lingering fear as he scanned his surroundings in terror.

“Who is it!”

He roared, “Who ambushed me!”

Even as he said this, he was already planning his escape. He turned and charged for the sea, abandoning the weak, collapsed Mei Xiong without a second thought.

“You think you can escape?”

Just then, Xu Lei charged out. With no more explosives, he brandished his Golden Magic Staff and summoned his Golden Dharma Shadow, smashing it down toward the Charm Ancestor.

The Charm Ancestor was still formidable. A massive claw shadow materialized before him, barely blocking Xu Lei’s strike.

But the impact forced him to spew more blood. He was clearly heavily injured; after all, the energy from such a massive explosion was immense. And it had been a sudden sneak attack.

“Die!”

At the same time, Bai Ling unleashed her Flying Sword, sending it slashing toward the Charm Ancestor, who scrambled to defend against it.

Meanwhile, Mei Xiong was crawling on the ground, trying to drag himself into the sea.

“Die!”

But Xu Lei’s Lotus Treasure Fragments had already reached him, piercing straight through his forehead.

“No…”

His eyes shot open, staring at Xu Lei as he died, filled with bitter unwillingness.

Having killed Mei Xiong, Xu Lei felt a surge of satisfaction. ‘After being killed by that bastard twice, I’ve finally gotten my revenge.’

‘Of course, the Charm Ancestor has to die too.’

He saw that the Charm Ancestor was still putting up a desperate fight, fending off Bai Ling’s Flying Sword.

“Buddha Master, save me!” At that moment, the Charm Ancestor cried out for help.

‘Buddha Master? What the hell? He has reinforcements?’

Startled, Xu Lei didn’t dare hesitate. He activated his Lotus Treasure Fragments, transforming them into a Lotus Drill that shot forward to kill.

He poured all his Magical Power into it, unleashing his strongest attack.

The Lotus Drill spun with incredible speed.

“Stop!”

But at that exact moment, a deep, commanding male voice boomed from the sky.

A portly Monk with large ears appeared high in the sky, seated on a yellow lotus and wreathed in halos of Buddhist light. He was flying toward them at high speed!

“Die!”

But at the same time, Xu Lei remembered the scene from his past life, when this old bastard, the Charm Ancestor, had kicked his neck and snapped it. With a low roar, his Lotus Drill reached the Charm Ancestor!

SHK! The drill pierced straight through the Charm Ancestor’s heart!
