With two sharp sounds like that made by pieces of metal clashing against each other, the two purple energy swords cut into the foreheads of the two Budda statues, leaving only half of the blades and the handles outside. The symbols and ancient words drawn on the blades by Jianmen shone in blinding orange and golden light, and the two energy blades sunk even deeper into the statues' foreheads.

Countless cries, moans and curses came from the holes on the two statues’ foreheads. And at the same time, dark red blood started coming out from the two eyes of the two statues. When the blood poured down on the faces of the Buddha statues, the monsters and all other creatures and beings of malice became stirred up and all four members of the team could see them closing in on their positions from almost all available angles.

“Now’s the time, One Eye!” Josephine Wong clenched her fists and the two energy swords sunk just a little deeper.

Nameless slowly raised his two arms in the air while chanting the mantra, then he struck the air with his fists with full force, two golden energy fists shot out from his actual fists and struck the pummels of the two purple energy swords, pushing the swords deeper, and at the same time striking the two statues of blasphemous evil Buddhas in the face.

“Nameless, I’m going to put something on your back, don’t resist!” Jianmen said to Nameless, and when he got a nod in response, he placed a small jade card that was shaped like a tower shield on the back of Nameless’s neck.

A gentle and somehow reinvigorating chill flowed into the body and mind of Nameless, providing him with a blessing that helped him regenerate his energy and stamina. Nameless retreated his arms slowly after delivering the two strikes while continuing chanting the mantra that created the golden bubble, the empty feeling he had due to overexerting his power started slowly fading away.

Under the protection of the golden bubble, Tze Cha, who was the most affected by the evil mantras chanted by the two blasphemous evil Buddhas, gradually regained his composure and his ability to fight.

The dark red blood pouring down from the two Budda statues’ eyes dripped onto the bottom of the pit, and chilling cheers came from the dark ground below. At the same time, hundreds of creatures, including those with taking the shapes of giant four-winged bats, frogs with spikes on the head and multiple eyes on the body and front legs, multi-headed earth worms with sharp teeth and tentacles all over the sections of their bodies started rushing down from the hole through which the team of four fell down the pit.

Jianmen held both his rattan broom and his meat cleaver in his hands, and just when the horde of creatures of malice lunged at the team of four from above, he swung his broom upward, releasing a wall of wind.

The wall of wind was not strong or dense or fast judging from the looks of it. Yet when it brushed through the creatures of malice, their skins, and thinner parts of their bodies instantly became fragile and brittle. Some of the weaker and smaller creatures of malice even crumbled in the air completely while still in the air after they barely made it through the hole on the ground.

Tze Cha roared with anger, disgust and even a little resentment and fear, the dark scales he used to have when he was in his dragon form reappeared on his face and his arms, his face grew long and his fingernails grow sharp as he turned into a half man half dragon creature, then after a deep breath, a pillar of dark flames came out of his long dragon mouth aiming at the creatures coming from above, right after Jianmen’s wall of wind brushing through them.

“Bang bang bang bang ...” countless creatures of malice lit up and burst in the air like firecrackers and fireworks - the dark flames were already highly effective against them, and after their being weakened by the wall of wind from Jianmen, their reaction and downfall just became more violent.

“Leave! Dangerous enemies coming from below!” Jianmen looked down at the pit, which was now filled with boiling dark red blood.

“Go!” Josephine Wong took one single look down and agreed: “Fly up in formation, now!”

Josephine Wong, Jianmen and Nameless started ascending towards the hole along the pillar of dark flames all at once, and Tze Cha was left behind at first but then swiftly caught up to them.

Jianmen felt a burning sensation along his meridians, this was due to his overusing his Xuanli while he was technically still heavily injured, and the effects of the oil was starting to wear off - the more Xuanli he used, the faster the effect would fade, and the sooner he would get back to his half paralyzed state.

Jianmen’s meat cleaver lit up in bright light blue, then he swung it downwards and unleashed a crescent-shaped lightning energy blade aiming at the boiling dark red blood below. Next, he swung his rattan broom down and shot out another wall of wind with thousands of stone spikes inside.

A spider with many more than eight legs whose body was made of dark red blood leapt out from the pool of blood at the bottom of the pit, just in time to be sliced in half and then exploded by the lightning energy blade.

Right when the wall of wind came down against the surface of the pool of blood Jianmen bit the tip of his own tongue then spit his own blood onto the meat cleaver, then jabbed the meat cleaver down. A beam of orange and blood red energy shot down from the meat cleaver and split into thousands of much thinner beams in midair. Each beam of orange and blood red energy struck the tail of one stone spike and turned to a thin layer of energy coating around the spikes. When the spikes dived into the pool and hit the bottom, they turned into nodes of a large suppression array, which upon activation instantly locked the tens of other creatures made of dark red blood from coming out of the pool.

Josephine Wong triggered a burst of her power and unleashed an explosive push, the two energy swords lit up and sunk into the foreheads of the Buddha statues completely, leaving only their handles outside.

The walls of the pit as well as the entire underground structure shook as if the area was just hit by a massive earthquake, and giant cracks started crawling all over the two Buddha statues.
