Chapter 558 Blood Buddha Banners from Ten Directions
"Who would like to give it a try?"

Seeing what everyone was thinking, Emperor Youye smiled slightly and looked around.

"I!"

"I come……"

Several experts flew out from the square at the same time. Each of them was quite powerful and no less skilled than the expert who was good at escape techniques.

"If you take action, it will inevitably be suspected of cheating by others. Lord Yuanqing, would you be willing to give it a try?"

Emperor Youye smiled as he looked at Crown Prince Yuanqing.

Among everyone, he was the weakest and seemed the easiest to bully.

"I would like to witness the power of the Night Emperor's magic weapon!"

Knowing what he meant, Crown Prince Yuanqing, though displeased, still smiled and nodded.

Emperor Youye nodded without saying anything more. With a gentle wave of his hand, the oil lamp in the air immediately floated towards the central square.

Prince Yuanqing knew that the opponent's magic weapon was definitely not simple. He took a deep breath, circulated his power, and then lightly jumped, appearing in the square as well.

With his internal energy pushed to its limit, he grabbed at the air with his palm. Although he did not unleash the Blood Edict of Mountains and Rivers, this prince was, after all, a powerful expert who had reached the peak of the Bodhisattva realm, and his cultivation was astonishing.

Wow!

The surrounding space was torn open with several cracks, forming a unique domain more than ten meters in diameter around his body.

Although he didn't know what abilities the other party's oil lamp possessed, he didn't let his guard down at all and decided to first establish his own domain.

hum!
Just as he was ready, the oil lamp seemed to be relit, and the light, which had previously been only five feet long, increased to ten feet.

The light fell upon Prince Yuanqing's domain, which melted like snow meeting the blazing sun, making a sizzling sound as it sped away at a visible speed.

Immediately afterward, the light fell on Yuan Qing's head, and this young, vigorous, and handsome prince aged rapidly at a visible speed, his skin became loose, and his hair gradually turned gray.

"what did you do to me……"

His expression changed, and Crown Prince Yuanqing's pupils suddenly contracted.

He had anticipated that the oil lamp would unleash an astonishing aura and powerful force, and he had also anticipated being burned by the flames released by the other party. But he never dreamed that being exposed to the lamplight would cause him to age instantly.

Although the cultivation level has not changed much, what cultivators value most is lifespan. Once lifespan is exhausted, no matter how high the cultivation level is, it is all in vain!

"This is... a magical artifact that can control the five signs of decay in a person?"

His eyes widened suddenly, and Buddha's expression was also full of disbelief.

The Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man refer to five unusual signs: soiled clothes, withered hair, sweating under the armpits, foul body odor, and displeasure with one's seat. Once these signs are experienced, it indicates that one's lifespan is nearing its end, and even the gods cannot save one.

Everyone has a lifespan and suffers from its limitations, even powerful figures like Wu Potian and Emperor Fusheng.

This oil lamp can actually weaken one's lifespan without damaging one's cultivation level; it's terrifying!
Compared to this magical artifact, neither the Blood Edict of Mountains and Rivers nor the Five Virtues Crown is significantly inferior.

Seeing the power displayed, Emperor Youye said no more, and with a flick of his hand, the oil lamp returned to his palm.

Without the light, Crown Prince Yuanqing felt much more relaxed, but he also discovered that his aging lifespan showed no sign of reversing; his hair was still gray and his body was still weak.

"Youye Emperor, what's going on?"

Crown Prince Yuanqing was filled with disbelief.

"This magic weapon of mine is called the Five Decays Purgatory Lamp. Once lit, it can release the five decays of heaven and man, which invade the lifespan of cultivators and accelerate the decay of matter... Even I don't have an antidote. I don't want Yuan Qing to be in this state either, but there's nothing I can do. You'll have to find a way to resolve it yourself!" With a smile, Youye Emperor's eyes held a hint of cunning.

Whether there was truly no way out or just a pretense, only she herself knew, but the lifespan of Crown Prince Yuanqing had been wasted.

"you……"

Shaking with rage, Crown Prince Yuanqing was helpless. The opponent's strength far surpassed his own, and he was afraid that if he angered them, they would throw the so-called Five Decays Purgatory Lamp over again and format his lifespan.

If that's the case, no matter how strong one's will is, it's impossible to change one's fate.

"I wonder how my magic weapon compares to the previous two?"

With a single move, Emperor Youye established his authority, then looked around.

"Naturally, His Majesty the Emperor is superior!"

"The Five Decays Purgatory Lamp is too powerful; we admire it."

"Such a magical treasure is probably no weaker than the Myriad Life Chaos Mirror."

Everyone around them roared with excitement.

As subordinates, they naturally hoped that their emperor could have an even more powerful treasure. At this moment, the Five Decays Purgatory Lamp was clearly superior to the other two, and everyone felt very proud.

"Since my magic weapon is superior, then... let's stop observing the Myriad Fates Chaos Mirror here..."

Emperor Youye waved his hand.

"Wait!"

Just then, Buddha stood up, clasped his hands together, and said, "Benefactor Youyehuang, haven't even seen the magical artifact that I and the Demon Lord jointly crafted? Isn't it too hasty to draw conclusions?"

"A magical artifact jointly crafted?"

These words stunned not only Emperor Youye, but also Zhang Xuan and even Crown Prince Yuanqing.

It is common knowledge that Buddha and Demon Lord have always been enemies, like fire and water. Even if it is somewhat shameful to be defeated by Zhang Xuan at the same time, it is not enough to join forces to refine a magic weapon, right?
"Not bad!"

The Demon Lord nodded, stood up, pointed forward, and a demon banner formed from lotus leaf flames appeared in the air.

Despite being called a demon banner, it carries the unique Buddhist swastika symbol and the powerful energy of the Buddhist realm, giving people a sense of purification and peace.

It was actually a Buddhist banner!
"This is the Ten Directions Blood Buddha Banner, formed by the convergence and condensation of the Ten Directions Demon Realm and the Lotus Platform Buddha Kingdom. One thought can make one a demon, another a Buddha. If the Night Emperor's Five Decays Purgatory Lamp can withstand my magic weapon, we will turn around and leave without asking to see the Myriad Fates Chaos Mirror..."

The Buddha spoke calmly, his pure light illuminating all directions.

"Buddha and the Demon Lord have actually joined forces..."

Zhang Xuan frowned.

Although it was guessed that the two had reconciled and might no longer fight, their cooperation in refining magical artifacts was still unexpected.

Both the Ten Directions Demon Realm and the Lotus Platform Buddha Kingdom are their natal magic treasures. When the two are combined, they must completely release their minds and spirits; otherwise, if one of them launches a sneak attack, the other will surely die.

Let alone others, even Zhang Xuan would find it difficult to do this with Master Kong. These two, who have always been at odds and are like oil and water, not only did it, but also jointly crafted a magic weapon. Even seeing it with one's own eyes is unbelievable.

If the news were to reach the source world, it would likely cause countless believers to collapse in their hearts.

After all, the Buddha's great vow to all believers was to eliminate the demonic path and make the world free of demons, but now he has joined forces with this supreme leader of the demon race without reservation.
