Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

Chapter 523 The Cold and Pure Human Buddha Child VS The Adorable and Devoted Demon Cat Emperor [199]

The process of cleansing the marrow was long and painful, and Jiang Xiyu's cat ears and tail began to protrude uncontrollably.

At this moment, the demonic energy in Jiang Xiyu's body evaporated like mist. Wherever the golden light passed, the purple demonic energy had nowhere to hide and dissipated from all sides of his body, finally disappearing into the radiance.

Once the bone marrow was cleansed, the golden light then rushed towards Jiang Xiyu's demon core.

This demon core was reshaped by Shiga using his merits, but even so, it still retains its demonic nature.

Because the demon core had only recently been repaired and was already as thin as a cicada's wing, when countless strands of merit were poured in, Jiang Xiyu felt that the demon core shattered again.

The demonic energy scattered from the demon core rampaged through his body. Even though it was quickly swallowed by the golden light, Jiang Xiyu's whole body still trembled uncontrollably as a result.

Yuejia frowned upon seeing this, but before he could do anything, thunder suddenly roared from within the vortex, as if a lightning tribulation was about to strike, seemingly urging him to leave.

However, it will take some time to condense a new golden core for Jiang Xiyu using merit.

Yuejia narrowed her eyes, pondered for a long time, ignored the lightning tribulation about to strike her head, and simply used her magic to gather the merit of the Compassion Temple to condense a golden core for Jiang Xiyu.

Right now, all of Jiang Xiyu's senses and attention are being taken over by the merit within her body.

The merits he accumulated were as vast as the sea, yet he could only absorb them with a single golden core. As the merits increased, Jiang Xiyu's cultivation level rose linearly, a rate at which he could no longer bear it and closed his eyes.

Above the sky, his figure was gradually swallowed by the halo, and he was like a dazzling sun, surrounded by brilliant light and abundant blessings.

Yuejia looked at the scene before her with satisfaction.

Everything seemed to be going according to his wishes. As long as Jiang Xiyu's golden core was formed, he could take him back to the Buddhist realm.

As for Shiga...

Yuejia suddenly turned his head and looked at the divine soul that he had separated from Jiang Xiyu's body in the void.

Shiga is now nothing more than a soul, and it seems that Yuega could reduce him to ashes with just a slight gesture.

The cycle of fate has turned, and the two of them have undergone such a dramatic change in their circumstances, just like the scene millions of years ago when Shiga cruelly separated him from his body.

In Yuejia's initial plan, he intended to completely eliminate Shiga after obtaining the body.

But after witnessing Jiang Xiyu risk his life for him that day, although Yue Jia felt hatred in her heart, she didn't think of doing anything to him now. After all, eliminating him now would be as easy as crushing an ant.

Yuejia curled her lips in disdain, thinking: Since he is willing to stay in this mortal world for Jiang Xiyu, then let him stay here forever.

He waved his hand, wanting to avoid seeing it, and was about to send Shiga's soul back to the mortal world.

In an instant, a sudden change occurred.

Countless Buddhist beads suddenly burst forth from the golden light enveloping Jiang Xiyu.

The Buddhist prayer beads, worn on Jiang Xiyu's hand, absorbed most of the merit that Jiang Xiyu could not bear in the halo, and after losing their original color, they now resembled golden beads.

It stood in front of its master, preventing Yuejia's magic from scattering Shijia's soul.

Upon seeing this turn of events, Yuejia instinctively looked in the direction where Jiang Xiyu was.

Jiang Xiyu's merits had dimmed somewhat, and no golden mark had appeared between his brows.

Yuejia's pupils seemed to flash for a moment as he saw through Jiang Xiyu's body and discovered that the golden core inside Jiang Xiyu's body had not yet been fully formed.

So much merit, yet it still hasn't solidified.

Yuejia then thought of the Buddhist beads blocking Shijia's way, which shone with golden light, clearly having absorbed merit.

Thinking of this, Yuejia's expression changed, her gaze immediately darkened, and a violent thought arose within her.

He stared intently at the prayer beads for a moment, then seemed to laugh in anger: "These things that don't recognize their owner dare to disrupt my grand plan!"

The prayer beads, being sentient, sensed Yuejia's anger and immediately transformed into a barrier to block Shijia's path.

Yuejia raised her hand and conjured a golden lotus, within which were interspersed red karmic flames, seemingly capable of destroying everything.

He said sternly, "If that's the case, then you might as well shatter along with him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden lotus floated out from his palm.

It was a power that was clearly full of compassion, but at this moment it carried a chilling killing intent.

Just as the golden lotus landed on the barrier formed by the Buddhist beads, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the vortex, shattering the lotus.

Yuejia's expression turned icy as he looked up, only to be met with another bolt of lightning striking him.

Under the Buddha's light, no evil thoughts or murderous intent can exist.

Yuejia harbored murderous intent because the Buddhist beads had absorbed Jiang Xiyu's merits; at that moment, the tribulation of lightning was about to strike.

He dodged it, and the next moment, the vortex changed abruptly, accompanied by a deafening roar of thunder.

Suddenly, a strange black cloud appeared in the golden vortex. The lightning in the black cloud was ferocious and twisted. With a thunderbolt, it was as if the black cloud was torn open. Then, countless bolts of lightning fell, each one heading towards the direction where Yuejia was.

Yuejia created a barrier to isolate the thunder, but that thunder was clearly not ordinary lightning.

That was the tribulation lightning that brought him to Buddhahood!

Yuejia clenched her fists, looked up at him with a gloomy expression, and gritted her teeth, cursing inwardly: Damn it, how did they get here so fast?

Originally, he planned to help Jiang Xiyu undergo a complete transformation and improve his cultivation before responding to the tribulation lightning. However, he did not expect that Shijia's Buddhist beads would divert the merit he had given to Jiang Xiyu, resulting in Jiang Xiyu not only having insufficient merit but also not having fully formed his golden core.

His original intention was to deceive everyone, but now his plan has been completely ruined.

Yuejia had no choice but to face the tribulation lightning first.

Before dispelling the barrier, he glanced at Jiang Xiyu, who was bathed in radiance.

Without his magical power to sustain it, those countless threads of merit suddenly vanished from Jiang Xiyu's side as if their threads had been cut.

For a moment, Jiang Xiyu seemed to sense his gaze.

He raised his eyes amidst the radiance and slowly met Yuejia's gaze.

Their eyes met for only a fleeting moment, so brief it was as if they had never looked at each other before being shattered by a thunderbolt in the blinding daylight.

The lightning tribulation surged towards Yuejia, and his figure was gradually swallowed by the white light.

Jiang Xiyu watched, his pupils almost vertically slits, his heart clenching from the thunder.

He raised his hand, as if trying to grab Yuejia's figure.

However, in the blinding light of the lightning, Jiang Xiyu's hand froze in mid-air, his entire being tense as a conditioned reflex, driven by a self-preservation instinct.

But gradually, he lost some of his hearing amidst the thunder, and his vision was scorched by the pale light of the thunder. Even with his eyes closed, he felt a sharp pain in them, and he was unable to move, as if he had no idea where he was.

All he knew was that when the blinding light faded from his eyelids, he opened his eyes again and discovered his soul being protected by the Buddhist beads.

As the lightning struck, Shiga's soul nearly dissipated in the light and shadow, as if it would shatter completely if struck.

Jiang Xiyu was so shocked by what she saw that she disregarded everything else and rushed towards the divine soul.
