Chapter 81: Thunder over West Lake, snake demon turns to ashes (Subscription required)
The effort of a stick of incense.

Shi Jian has now arrived at the shore of West Lake.

Looking at the snake body coiled in the West Lake.

Shi Jian's expression was extremely cold. This snake demon was so presumptuous that it was even bold enough to reveal its true form in broad daylight!
Isn't this a slap in the face of all the monks in the world?

"It's ridiculous that Jinshan Temple, a sacred place of Buddhism, doesn't care about the lives of the people and allows this snake demon to kill people.

Since Buddha does not save the world, I will save it myself! "

As he spoke, a flying sword was summoned out from within Shi Jian's Dantian, driven by his spiritual consciousness.

In an instant, the flying sword turned into a stream of light and flew towards the white snake that was lazily absorbing heat in the West Lake.

The sound of breaking air came suddenly, and when the white snake reacted, the flying sword was already hanging high above its head.

With a bang, the flying sword stabbed down, but the whole body of the white snake suddenly fled from the spot at an extremely strange speed.

In an instant, the flying sword entered the water, causing thousands of waves.

Although the white snake dodged the fatal blow, it was still grazed by the flying sword. A sword mark was clearly visible and blood was flowing.

With a roar, the white snake was completely enraged.

Considering that it had never suffered such serious injuries since entering West Lake during its initial stage of foundation building, its huge body began to stand up in just a moment.

It spat apricots in the direction of the stone-hard shore where he was standing, its snake eyes full of hatred.

"You are very angry and want to devour me as well?
snort!
"You foolish beast, wait and see how I will kill you today!"

In an instant, the huge true energy in Shi Jian's body could no longer be hidden, and the aura of the late foundation building period poured out, and his entire body flew into the void.

The flying sword broke through the water surface and flew towards the white snake again. As for Shi Jian, while controlling the flying sword, he also aimed a thunder spear in his hand at the white snake.

The thunder spear came out and the void exploded.

A loud thunderclap completely broke the tranquility of the entire West Lake.

The huge body of the white snake seemed to sense the breath of death and began to flee into the distance.

Unfortunately……

How could Shi Jian let it go?

The flying sword was so fast, like a ray of blue light, it caught up with the white snake in an instant, feeling the deadly flying sword attacking from behind.

The white snake immediately turned around and spit out a piece of pure white scale from its mouth. The moment the flying sword hit it, it was directly knocked hundreds of meters away by the terrifying power of the scale.

The white snake was not feeling well either, and its huge body flew out like a bird.

One can imagine the power carried by the flying sword!

Shi Jian retracted his flying sword at this moment, and just when it hit the scales, Shi Jian's consciousness attached to the flying sword was directly dispersed by a huge demonic power.

"How could a white snake in the early stage of foundation building have such scales that could damage my flying sword?"

After Shi Jian took a cold look, the flying sword, which had lost some of its luster, sank into his dantian.

Ever since the flying sword came into being, it has been almost invincible. I didn't expect that it would be damaged by this foundation-building white snake.

Shi Jian simply planned to kill him with thunder magic. He took light steps on the lake surface, then shot out and blasted out with the thunder spear in his hand.

The white snake had just steadied its body and had no chance to escape when it saw the lightning spear approaching.

As if it understood that it would be impossible to escape Shi Jian's pursuit today, unexpectedly, after the white snake took off its scales, its eyes trembled.

And its breath began to rise little by little.

The middle stage of foundation building...

In the later stage of foundation construction...

The pinnacle of foundation building!

It was not until the peak of the foundation building stage, when the white snake's body began to ooze blood, that its aura stopped growing.

"Human cultivator, why did you come to trouble me? Why do you fight me to the death? Do you really think I don't have any tricks?"

The white snake opened its mouth and turned into human language. Shi Jian heard it clearly. This white snake was not a demon beast, but a pure demon in the true sense.

The only difference between monsters and demons is the level of intelligence.

The six-winged centipede in Ruping Mountain is a typical monster that can only devour medicinal herbs instinctively, while the white snake in front of it can already speak human language and has a soul.

"A monster is a monster. Since you dare to devour the people, I will definitely kill you!"

No more nonsense, thunder gathered in Shi Jian's hands, so what if he was at the peak of foundation building?
He is not an ordinary monk!

"Lightning and thunder, control the thunder!"

Rumble! There was bright sunshine between heaven and earth, but thunder was heard continuously.

As he flew towards the white snake, the white snake was not afraid at all and wanted to swallow Shi Jian in one gulp.

Shi Jian, carrying thunder, just approached the white snake. In an instant, streams of water spurted out of the white snake's mouth. This was its innate magical power - to stir up trouble!
Seeing the water column as sharp as a knife, Shi Jian frowned.

"The Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth, the root of all Qi. I have practiced for ten thousand calamities to prove my supernatural powers. Within and outside the Three Realms, only Taoism reigns supreme. There is golden light on my body, covering my body!"

As the Golden Light Mantra was circulated, the true energy in his body turned into golden light and gathered into a bell-shaped body, which was like a substance and enveloped Shi Jian's entire body.

The water column continued to hit the stone, but the stone was not damaged at all.

However, the forward speed slowed down, and Shi Jian did not hesitate to pour out the heavenly thunder and inject it into the water column.

Water is conductive, and the force of thunder and lightning flowed along the water column towards the white snake.

Although the power was weakened several times, it was still unbearable when it fell into the mouth of the white snake.

The moment it closed its mouth, the white snake's tail lashed towards Shi Jian fiercely! It attempted to use its peak foundation-building body to break Shi Jian's golden divine spell.

Unfortunately……

How could Shi Jian let the White Snake succeed?
Without waiting for the tail to whip, Shi Jian resolutely controlled the thunder to rush towards the white snake's vital point!

Seeing Shi Jian being so fearless, the white snake became extremely worried and bit Shi Jian!
The moment the huge head opened its mouth and bit down with a fishy smell, a sense of thunder spread all over Shi Jian's body.

The white snake's entire body trembled violently, and its entire head was damaged by the thunder, turning pitch black.

The words in his mouth were even more miserable...

Shi Jian didn't expect that this snake demon had so little combat experience that it actually wanted to swallow him?
Having suffered a loss, the White Snake was in a dilemma. It could neither defeat nor escape from the monk in front of it, leaving it in a quandary.

As if it had thought of something, the white snake suddenly roared into the void.

The shrill roar spread throughout the surrounding area, scaring the people in Hangzhou City, which was not far from the West Lake, so much that their scalps went numb.

They all thought it was a snake demon that was going to kill people, and fled out of Hangzhou...

Just as the white snake was roaring towards the sky, Shi Jian took this opportunity and shot the thunder spear in his hand straight into the white snake's seven inches!

By the time the white snake felt the lightning spear, it was too late, and it suddenly shrank into a ball to avoid being injured in the vital parts.

Even so, the moment the thunder spear broke through the white snake's body, it flowed into the white snake's entire body.

A burst of black smoke from barbecue billowed up, and the white snake seemed unable to support its huge body anymore, and fell into the lake with a loud bang.

The breath weakened again...

It dropped all the way down from the peak of foundation building and only stopped at the initial stage of foundation building.

"I have relied on the secret method to forcibly improve my cultivation, but that's all. I want to kill you, and you can't escape!"

Slowly exhaling, Shi Jian looked at the white snake twisting its body in the lake below, its body all charred black, and was about to kill it with a thunder.

In the distance, an extremely majestic Buddhist seal suddenly came crashing down!

Shi Jian felt that this aura was so strong that it was even no less powerful than that of his own master Wu Chenzi.

There was no time to kill the snake demon, and Shi Jian retreated explosively. In a flash, the Buddha Seal fell where he had just stopped, and the entire lake was blown apart.

Soon, an old figure appeared above the snake demon, wearing a golden cassock, with drooping eyebrows and a precious appearance.

But when paired with the struggling white snake below, it seems despicable and shameless.

After finally stabilizing his body, Shi Jian looked at the old monk who suddenly appeared above the white snake, and his face suddenly turned ashen!

"Donor, this white snake belongs to Jinshan Temple, how can you kill it?
Today, since you haven't committed any unforgivable mistake, I will not bother with it. All I want is for you to leave and not harbor any murderous intentions towards the white snake.

What do you think, benefactor? "

As soon as the words fell, a powerful aura rushed towards him.

It turned out to be a Buddhist cultivator who was half a step away from reaching the golden elixir stage!
Shi Jian looked at the old monk coldly, and finally shook his head.

"Golden Mountain Temple...

It turns out that this white snake is so rampant and cruel to the people, and you in Jinshan Temple are not unaware of it, and you even condone and shelter it.

Is this what you Buddhists mean by saving all sentient beings?

Let me leave like this?
What a majestic presence! "

Shi Jian's icy face was unusually calm. While he stared at the old monk, the true energy in his body poured out and a strong fighting spirit began to rise.

Hearing this, the old monk sighed.

"Donor, I have one more thing to say. This white snake belongs to Jinshan Temple. This is a matter of great importance. Donor, you must not kill it!"

"Humph!

I have one last thing to say. This white snake has harmed the people and deserves death. Jinshan Temple does not distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil, so don't blame me for being merciless with the thunder in my hand!"

“It seems that the donor is determined to do so.

Nothing more...

I have had a fight with the donor!
Let the donors know that Jinshan Temple is going to be preserved, and no one can change it!"

"Noisy!"

In an instant, Shi Jian had no more scruples. The true energy in his body rushed into his body madly, shining with golden light. With thunder exploding in his hands, he flew towards the old monk.

As for the old monk, he just stood there, sitting cross-legged in the void, with his eyes slightly closed, silently chanting a mantra. In an instant, his eyes opened and he slapped forward with his palm!
The huge Buddha seal carried the lake water and turned into a huge palm, which was about to suppress Shi Jian.

Shi Jian was not to be outdone, and the lightning in his hand went straight to the old monk's face.

There was a bang.

Shi Jian was slapped away by the huge palm, but the lightning spear in Shi Jian's hand did not stab the old monk at the last moment.

Instead, it suddenly turned around and flew towards the white snake below!

Originally, after the old monk arrived, White Snake felt that she had a safe chance of survival for the day, and was watching the fight between Shi Jian and the old monk.

However, he never expected that a lightning spear would suddenly pierce through his vital points.

The demon pill exploded directly, and in a flash, a look of fear flashed across the white snake's eyes, and it fell heavily to the ground.

The blood kept flowing, the body kept shaking, dyeing the surrounding lake water red, and also dyeing the old monk's calm eyes red!

　Ahem, today I'm going to dig a big hole for Senior Brother to put some pressure on him. The Nascent Soul Demon Emperor under the Jinshan Temple must be inspired by the Legend of the White Snake. However, this snake plans to replace him with a male one... This way, it will be easier to kill him.

Okay, back to the topic. Today is another four chapters and twelve thousand words. It’s the last day of May Day, and it’s really hard to endure. I almost cried during the last class.

Here, I wish all book friends good luck on May Day, a smooth trip on May Day, a happy May Day, and a safe and happy May Day.
