ETERNAL MARTIAL EMPEROR, VOLUME 8 - Season 24 Episode 4

Suddenly, streaks of red light appeared from the body of the Martial Dao Prime Body and intensified.

When the red light made contact with the pitch-black fiend qi on his body, it burned instantly.

In the blink of an eye, the Martial Dao Prime Body turned into a gigantic human-shaped fireball. The scarlet flames on his body burned furiously, burning his hair, skin, flesh, organs and bones red and crystalline!

Karmic Flames!

Heavenly Wolf had once said that back then, Emperor Bo Xun had two Emperor weapons. One of them was the Mara Mask formed by the Seven Emotions clone.

The other was the fiend saber created by the Six Desires Clone—the Ji Du Saber!

The Mara Mask contained the power of the seven emotions.

Only obsession could sever the seven emotions.

As for the Ji Du Saber, it contained the power of the six desires.

Only the Karmic Flames of the Buddhist monasteries could incinerate the six desires!

Although the Martial Dao Prime Body did not know the Buddha Karmic Sutra, he knew the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

Karmic Flames countered the power of the six desires the most!

Sizzle!

Under the burning of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, the pitch-black fiend qi on the Martial Dao Prime Body let out a strange sound and green smoke billowed.

Before long, the fiend qi was burned away by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire.

At the same time, a sutra appeared in the mind of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

He browsed through it briefly and was delighted.

That sutra recorded the negative karma of the Buddhist monasteries and even the cultivation Dharmic formulation of Karmic Flames.

If he was not wrong, this should be the contents of the Buddha Karmic Sutra!

To think that the Buddha Karmic Sutra would be hidden in this fiend saber!

At the same time, the Martial Dao Prime Body felt relieved.

Thankfully, he was the one who touched the Ji Du Saber first. If Yan Beichen had touched it, the power contained in the fiend saber alone would have been enough to destroy him!

Right now, Yan Beichen was severely injured and he did not know how to use Karmic Flames as well. He could not defend against the power of six desires triggered by the Ji Du Saber at all.

But now that the Martial Dao Prime Body obtained the Buddha Karmic Sutra, he could impart this sutra to Yan Beichen.

That way, Yan Beichen would not have to endure any danger.

This should be a test left behind by Emperor Bo Xun.

If anyone could withstand the power of six desires in the Ji Du Saber, they would be qualified to receive his inheritance.

The Karmic Flames on the Martial Dao Prime Body gradually extinguished and he opened his eyes once more.

At the side, Heavenly Wolf was dumbfounded.

“Are you… alright?”

Heavenly Wolf probed.

The Martial Dao Prime Body shook his head gently.

‘He’s indeed a monster!’

Heavenly Wolf thought to himself before saying, “This is the Ji Du Saber. Apart from my old master, anyone else who touches the Ji Du Saber will definitely suffer a backlash from the power of six desires within!”

“I’ve already obtained the Buddha Karmic Sutra.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body advanced and carried Yan Beichen down from Heavenly Wolf’s back. Placing him flat on the ground, he called out softly.

Yan Beichen’s eyes were tightly shut and he was barely breathing—he was still unconscious.

The Martial Dao Prime Body used his spirit consciousness to stimulate Yan Beichen’s consciousness but there was no reaction.

Yan Beichen’s consciousness was already completely occupied by fiend qi.

His Essence Spirit was filled with cracks. Previously, his injuries were only temporarily stabilized by the obsession fiend qi. Now, he could no longer hold on.

Yan Beichen’s Essence Spirit did not have much lifeforce and was almost at the end of its road.

The Martial Dao Prime Body took out another pile of elixirs and fed them to Yan Beichen, calling repeatedly to wake him up.

However, even after an hour, Yan Beichen showed no signs of waking up.

“He’s not going to make it.”

Heavenly Wolf shook his head gently. “Actually, his condition is almost equivalent to a dead man.”

“It’s only because he cultivated the Fiend Obsession Sutra that he’s able to survive till now.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body clenched his fists in silence.

He risked immense danger to barge into Avici and finally obtained the Buddha Karmic Sutra. However, Yan Beichen could not wake up.

Even though they now had the Buddha Karmic Sutra, what was the use?

“Let’s bury him here.”

Heavenly Wolf said, “He can die without regrets being buried in the same tomb as my old master.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was still silent.

He looked at Yan Beichen who was lying on the ground and suddenly frowned.

There seemed to be some scratches on the ground beneath Yan Beichen.

The Martial Dao Prime Body moved Yan Beichen away gently and glared at the ground.

The ground was filled with scratches, as though it was drawing a scene.

In that scene, the surrounding stone walls were pitch-black rocks that stood steeply and sinisterly, similar to the situation in Avici.

Within, corpses were strewn and blood was everywhere. There were even many cultivators trapped within, shouting as though they were struggling.

Beside the cultivators was a dense swarm of gigantic bees, surrounding them and attacking wildly.

On the corpses at the side, some of the cultivators were riddled with holes in a tragic manner!

The gaze of the Martial Dao Prime Body shifted and he walked to the side. Before long, he saw another diagram on the ground.

The scene in this diagram was blurry and filled with black fog.

However, scarlet blood lights appeared from the black fog like red lanterns.

In some of the black fog, the figures of the red lanterns appeared completely—they were the Hell Hounds that the Martial Dao Prime Body and the others had encountered previously!

It was similar to the previous diagram.

In this diagram, many cultivators were trapped and were attacked wildly by the Hell Hounds.

A cultivator laid on the ground with a pained expression; his abdomen had already been hollowed out by the Hell Hounds.

A Hell Hound bit the person’s bloodied intestines and stomped on him with a ferocious gaze.

Another cultivator had his lungs dug out by a Hell Hound. He laid limply on the ground and fresh blood flowed.

It was a scene from Hell that was bloody and unbearable to witness!

The Martial Dao Prime Body continued searching the surroundings.

Not far away, there was another diagram.

In this diagram, the terrain was complicated with countless ravines that intertwined like a gigantic maze.

The maze was filled with black torrents.

If he was not wrong, these should be the Hell Ants!

This diagram also depicted a group of cultivators being attacked wildly by the Hell Ants.

In the blink of an eye, the cultivators were left with nothing but white bones wherever the Hell Ants passed!

The Martial Dao Prime Body stood up and exhaled gently.

He discovered that the locations of the three diagrams were unique—they formed a circle around the corpse of Emperor Bo Xun.

The Martial Dao Prime Body circled around the corpse of Emperor Bo Xun and continued searching.

Indeed, there was another diagram behind the diagram of the Hell Ants.

This diagram was still a sinister scene of Hell.

A group of cultivators within were attacked by a type of slender purple living being.

This living being resembled a snake. It was thin as a cow’s hair and purple all over, able to penetrate anything.

The cultivators could not defend at all as the snakes tunneled into their eyes, noses, mouths, ears and even the pores on their bodies!

The Martial Dao Prime Body continued to circle around the corpse of Emperor Bo Xun.

Before long, he completed a full circle.

There were a total of 16 Hell Diagrams!
