Chapter 2451 - Strange Developments at the Sword Shrine, the Great Yin Divine Race
It was the Outsider Celestial Demons who’d suffered the heaviest casualties beneath the Tribulation of the Five Witherings.
Did that mean that they were Di E’s true targets?
Of course, there was another possibility: that Di E wanted to take the Outsider Celestial Demons and Li Fuyou’s old friends all out at once!
The more the group thought about it, the harder it was to stay calm.
The Buddha of the Future might have been powerful, but in the Boundless Battlefield, Di E, the man who controlled the Tribulation of the Five Witherings, was unquestionably the most dangerous!
“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. The Dipankara Buddha’s plans were deep, far-reaching, and thorough, but this time, he ultimately fell short compared to Di E,” sighed Su Yi. “I’m sure there’s someone helping Di E. Otherwise, there’s no way he could have used the Boundless Battlefield to plot against the former experts of the River of Destiny like the Dipankara Buddha and the Buddha of the Future.
He could roughly guess what Di E was thinking. He wanted to use the Tribulation of the Five Witherings to weaken the Buddhas!
After all, if the manifestations of their negative karma, the Demon Progenitors, suffered beneath the Tribulation of the Five Elements, the Buddhas surely would too!
This was what they meant when they called karmic fetters inextricable; your karma and your life were connected, so they flourished and withered as one.
Unfortunately, Di E hadn’t anticipated that the Dipankara Buddha would use Su Yi’s power of reincarnation to shatter these karmic fetters without creating a backlash.
In this regard, Di E had lost, but he wasn’t the only one. Su Yi had lost, too!
But in another sense, Su Yi had won. He’d successfully saved a group of his old friends, and he was in the process of killing every last remaining Outsider Celestial Demon to repay his blood debt.
