Chapter 2845: Request
sword intent was an ethereal and detached feeling emanating from the very bones of the flying swords. But now, in addition to the ethereal quality, there was also a chill that froze everything beneath...Under Lu Xia Tian's suppression, the Kongtian Ding, no longer under the control of Kong Ming in the dark, let out a mournful cry. Its size shrunk drastically, transforming into a three-inch miniature cauldron, which was then taken in by Lu Xia Tian's Sumeru ring. However, the moment he did so, a strange glint appeared in Lu Xia Tian's eyes. He could see that the Sumeru ring flickered with unstable energy. After storing the Kongtian Ding, the Sumeru ring seemed to be struggling under the weight. The spiritual energy and restrictions within the ring were slowly eroding. Judging by this, it seemed the Sumeru ring, forced to contain the Kongtian Ding, wouldn't hold for long.

“Quite a powerful artifact,” Lu Xiaoteng’s eyes narrowed. Although Kongming couldn’t defeat him, his ability to lurk within the Buddhist sect and instigate a war between the Buddhist sect and the Red Moon Desert showed his mastery of stealth. Coming from the primordial sword demon, it wasn't surprising that he had escaped.

Fortunately, the Sky-Empty Tripod was forcefully seized. Since the Sky-Empty Tripod opened the spatial vortex of this Buddhist sect location, to undo the bell, one must use the bell itself. Perhaps in the future when looking for Xiang Qingcheng and Dongfang Yi, relying on this Sky-Empty Tripod might be necessary.
Right now, Lu Xia Tian didn't have time to refine the Kongtian Ding. His attention turned to the remaining Buddhist disciples. Originally, the Buddhist disciples had gained the upper hand in the battle against the swarm of Void Devouring Ghost Ants. However, with the arrival of the Ghost Ant King, the monks hadn't had time to fully turn their advantage into victory. Because of the changes on the side of the Great Vehicle cultivators, the monks encountered a ferociously enraged Ghost Ant King, and the situation naturally collapsed.
A large number of monks were overwhelmed by the swarm of ants. After their magical power was depleted to a negligible amount, their complete flesh and blood bodies were quickly devoured by the ant colony.

Looking at the swarming ants covering the mountains, Lu Xia Tian's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. The elite disciples of the Buddhist Sect were also suffering heavy losses at this time. Lu Xia Tian didn't have any intention of saving the Buddhist Sect disciples from fire and water. He just saw that among the ant swarm, a path opened up, which was exactly where Xiang Hua came out from.
"I hope Master will show mercy and leave a sliver of life force for the Buddhist sect." Xiang Hua bowed down, "The Void Devouring Ant swarm is rampant, and right now, the only one who can stop them is you, Master."
"Do you want to stay in the Buddhist Sect" Lu Xia Tian frowned, at this time the Buddhist Sect was already in ruins, but he felt a sense of pity from Xiang Hua.
"Master, you have shown me immeasurable kindness. Over these years, the Buddhist Sect has also protected and taught me. If the Buddhist Sect were flourishing, I would leave on my own accord. But now that it's fallen into such disrepair, I wish to stay and settle this karmic debt. Please grant me your approval!" Xiang Hua bowed repeatedly.
"If you stay in the Buddhist sect, have you thought about the consequences" Lu Xia Tian asked.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"The disciple understands!"
"Alright, it's about grievances and kindness. You have your own judgment in your heart, and this is your path. Cultivating immortality, navigating the world, and being a person are all paths. Since you've decided to stay, you must also be clear about the path you will take."
Even with the clarity of emptiness ahead, for disciples of the Buddhist sect, Xiang Hua would be seen as a traitor. It wouldn't be easy for Xiang Hua to regain his footing in the Buddhist sect. However, Lu Xia Tian also understood that Xiang Hua didn't want to reestablish himself within the Buddhist sect. He simply wanted this already dilapidated Buddhist sect to retain its last vestiges of vitality in the face of this apocalyptic tribulation.
“Thank you, Master, for making this possible!” Xiang Hua bowed once more.
Su Qing, hiding within the ant swarm, did not appear. Lu Xia Tian let out a slight sigh. With a wave of his hand, the Brahma Heavenly Fire transformed into a fiery line, piercing through the boundary where the ant swarm and the Buddhist sect monks were fighting.
With a hiss, the Void-Devouring Ghost Ants touched by the flames of Van Luo Tian vanished into nothingness, each turning into a wisp of ghostly energy.
When the low-ranking ghost ants saw Lu Xia Tian intervene, they swarmed towards the Void-Devouring Ghost Ants of Fan Luo Tian Huo. All were incinerated by the flames. With this brief respite, the remaining Buddhist monks had a chance to catch their breath and retreated some distance. The powerful figures of the Buddhist sect either went out to intercept the returning cultivators from the Crimson Moon Deserts or disappeared into that terrifying spatial vortex.
At this time, all the cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage were trembling with fear. Without a Mahayana realm cultivator to preside over, their lives and deaths, as well as the Buddhist sect's lineage, hung in the balance depending on the whims of either Lu Xia Tian or these swarms of insects.
“Lu Danwang, these bald donkeys of the Buddhist sect deserve to die. You and I are allies. This time in the battle against the Buddhist sect, this king and the ant tribe put in a lot of effort. Lu Danwang, why did you attack my younger brother” The Void Devourer Ant King looked at Lu Xiaodao who was flying through the air.
"There's no special reason, I want them to live, and they can live." Lu Xia Tian said softly.
"This is how Lu Danwang treats his own allies. Who in the future would be willing to work for Lu Danwang" The Ghost Ant King had expected Lu Xiaottian to give some reason, but the other party was so blunt, completely ignoring the ant swarm.
"I believe you are an ally, and you are. I don't approve, and naturally others won't either." Lu Xia Tian shook his head.
“Lu Dan Wang’s ability to build a bridge and then dismantle it after crossing it is something I have witnessed. Lu Dan Wang fought fiercely, wanting to stop the ant swarm with his own strength, but that's probably unrealistic, right Do you think in this situation, the ant nest can go against the will of the entire colony” The Ghost Ant King chuckled softly. The Ghost Void Ants had grown significantly through their battles, and a considerable portion of them had already completed their advancement. In terms of both group numbers and individual strength, they were far beyond what they used to be. Even if Lu Xiaotian was incredibly skilled, after consecutive battles, wouldn’t he have suffered some depletion”
"No need for an ant nest, I'll take your life. You think an ant colony can stop me" Lu Xia Tian glanced coldly at the Ghost Ant King. The Brahma Heavenly Fire surged from his body, and within the flames, the seventh level Buddhist pagoda dharma appeared, stepping through the ants as it swiftly flew towards the Ghost Ant King, seemingly slow but actually as fast as lightning.
A beam of light burst forth from within the Buddha's Dharma body, emanating from the seven-tiered stupa without any reservation. The seven relics coalesced into one, resembling a blazing sun suspended above their heads. The ancient seal of the ancestor Buddha and the seven-tiered stupa dharma form each radiated golden and silver light, weaving together a vision of a golden and silver Buddha kingdom before their eyes.
The Ghost Ant King's face changed drastically. He originally thought that even if Lu Xia Tian was not at his wit's end, he would have consumed a considerable amount of strength. However, once he faced him in battle, he realized that the stone Buddha he had fought before was far inferior to Lu Xia Tian. Both used Buddhist techniques, but Lu Xia Tian's suppression of ghosts was obviously much stronger than that of the stone Buddha.
Where the golden and silver Buddha's light shone, the Void-Devouring Ants writhed with visible speed, festering and dissolving. A chorus of agonizing screams filled the air.
The Ghost Ant King roared continuously, a large group of Void Devouring Ants gathered around him. At this time, the Ghost Ant King realized that Lu Xiaottian's cultivation of the Buddhist sect's techniques was too powerful. Low-level ghost ants couldn't get close to Lu Xiaottian at all, and they would gradually melt away in the Buddha's light. Since that was the case, he could only change his approach.
The Ghost Ant King's body was covered in a thick layer of chitin. The chitin was black with a hint of gold, and its defensive capabilities were significantly stronger than before it attacked the Buddhist sect.
