Chapter 1524: Chapter 1525: Damo Curse

"Thank you for the compliment, but I’m just a minor figure in front of such a senior. With your strength, you must have already reached the Divine Venerate Nine Souls Peak."

Ye Mo cupped his hands in respect.

"I didn’t expect you to see through my cultivation at a glance. But if it comes to a fight, my old bones can’t keep up with you young people."

The elderly sweeper chuckled and stepped forward, taking the manuscript from Ye Mo’s hands, saying, "When I last saw the Thousand Firmaments Blade, he told me that to master his ultimate skills, one must first comprehend the Five Elements Great Path, and finally, the Buddhist Law. Everything is Buddha; the fact that you can use the Five Buddhas Hand Seal signifies your Buddha Yuan."

Ye Mo nodded with vague understanding, but he had roughly guessed the old man’s identity, likely a figure from the time of the Heavenly King Fojiang, aged and worn. Although this elder has reached the Divine Venerate Nine Souls Peak, their life essence has completely diminished. If not advancing to the Immortal Position Realm, they might soon pass away.

"Buddha Yuan? I have no such Buddha Yuan. Buddhism emphasizes the purity of the five senses, which I cannot achieve."

Ye Mo shook his head.

"Buddha Yuan is a kind of fate, if encountered, it is Buddha Yuan. Even the most wicked person might possess Buddha Yuan. Now that the Thousand Firmaments Blade has attained a Buddha position, the ability to perform his martial pursuits signifies Buddha Yuan, the destiny between you and him."

The elderly sweeper remarked.

"By the way, sir, didn’t Heavenly King Fojiang have seven ultimate skills? Why does his biography only record six, what about the last one?"

"The last ultimate skill depends entirely on one’s own comprehension. Everyone has their own Buddha in their heart; as Buddhas differ, the martial pursuits comprehended also differ. The Buddha comprehended by the Thousand Firmaments Blade differs from yours, so the seventh isn’t recorded and cannot be recorded."

The elderly sweeper explained.

"Thank you for your guidance, elder."

Ye Mo nodded, understanding the elder’s meaning.

"You came to the Scripture Pavilion, presumably to clear the malice from yourself? However, I must remind you that the malice within you is heavy, even heavier than that of the Thousand Firmaments Blade of the past. Typical scriptures won’t be able to help you eliminate the malice within."

The elderly sweeper frowned, pale hands reaching toward Ye Mo, a golden Buddhist light enveloping him, instantly crackling with explosions, fragments of golden light peeling away.

"Such malice; it’s the heaviest malice I’ve seen in my life. No wonder you achieved such feats at a young age."

The elderly sweeper expressed surprise, handing an ancient scripture to Ye Mo.

"This scripture is the Damo Curse, a book gifted to me by the Thousand Firmaments Blade. Only this scripture can help you eliminate your malice in the shortest time, but whether it can be fully purged within three days depends on your Creator."

The elderly sweeper handed the scripture to Ye Mo before continuing to sweep.

Ye Mo didn’t waste time, sitting cross-legged, opening the scripture, beginning to recite each word. At once, the scripture words floated from Ye Mo’s mouth in textual form, but when these scriptures appeared, the invisible malice emanating from Ye Mo directly shattered them.

Ye Mo repeatedly tried, nearly reciting fluently backward, yet scriptures from his mouth shattered upon nearing his body.

Watching Ye Mo, the elderly sweeper paused his actions, shaking his head and sighing, "The Damo Curse is a genuinely grand Buddhist text; mere recitation doesn’t work."

Ye Mo recited the scriptures thousands of times, but the malice remained unmoved, unable to approach his body.

"The scriptures the elderly sweeper gave me aren’t ordinary scriptures."

With this thought, Ye Mo began to comprehend the meanings within the scriptures.

Stopping his recitation, scriptures floated in Ye Mo’s mind, transforming into ropes. After a day and night, Ye Mo was drenched in sweat with no results.

Then, when Ye Mo considered giving up, he felt a sudden shock in his mind as if something entered his brain.

His mind immediately transformed into a vast battlefield, countless warriors slaughtering each other. With every breath, countless strong ones fell to the ground, smoke rising, rivers of blood flowing.

Ye Mo stood not far away, gazing at the battle!

Instantly, Ye Mo felt an impulse to rush into the battlefield and fight. But suddenly, the vast battlefield space shattered, picture fragments converged fiercely, forming a massive beast, its size like Ye Mo, body like steel, dragging a black tail, a blood-red ’kill’ between its eyes, emitting a powerful killing aura, inducing fear.

"Roar!"

The beast roared, pouncing fiercely at Ye Mo!

Seeing this, Ye Mo instantly wielded the Heavenly Snare Blood Spear, thrusting at the fiendish beast.

Yet, not only did the spear not harm the beast, but during Ye Mo’s stab, it grew in size, its strength escalating.

"What is happening?"

Ye Mo was greatly shocked, activating the Ancient Yin-Yang Magnet, blasting at the beast’s body, yet the beast wasn’t harmed, becoming stronger instead.

"What is happening? I merely attacked it, and the beast became stronger. I must have entered here while comprehending the Damo Curse."

Ye Mo’s heart suddenly began to realize.

"The battlefield scene formed the beast, representing the malice. My body emits malice; attacking increases it, causing the beast to strengthen. If I can eliminate the beast before me, it equates to purging the malice within."

Malice differs from Killing Aura; Killing Aura can be restrained, unleashed to oppress others, while malice is carried within, not intensified by slaughter, but heavily possessed by killers.

Understanding this, Ye Mo resumed reciting the Damo Curse.

"I will transform the Damo Curse into a Dharma Spear, purging malice beast together!"

Break!

Ye Mo still condensed a spear, but it was formed from obscure Damo Curse scripture, a Dharma Spear like purifying Holy Light, piercing through directly.

Snap!

The malice beast was shattered by the Dharma Spear.

With malice purged, Ye Mo felt incredibly light, as if a mountain weighing him down had been removed.
