"No..."
Seeing the falling palm imprint, Soul Annihilation and his two companions despaired. They tried to escape, but found it impossible.
From high above, a sky-obscuring Buddha imprint descended. Endless Buddhist chants perated the world, like a Buddha Land held within a palm. The Buddha’s light was dazzling, revealing terrifying, imnse power.
BANG!
A startling sound echoed.
Struck by the Buddha imprint, the bodies of Soul Annihilation and his two companions disintegrated inch by inch. Blood splattered, and countless laws shattered. Even their soul essences were purified by the Buddha’s light, leaving nothing behind.
Three Martial Artists of the Great Emperor Realm had fallen!
A catastrophe in the Western Buddhist World, brought to an end by two palm imprints!
"We won?"
Thousands of Buddhas were taken aback, their faces filled with utter astonishnt.
They had already prepared themselves for the journey to the Western Paradise!
But they never expected that the Thunder Sound Temple still harbored a guardian expert capable of suppressing all invading enemies.
"Thank you, Buddha!"
The Buddha of Understanding, the Monk of the Suffering World, and the Bodhisattva of Saving the World knew of the Wisdom Absolute Buddha’s existence. They bowed respectfully towards the forbidden area, their hearts filled with reverence and adoration.
"Thank you, Buddha!"
The disciples of the Thunder Sound Temple, White Horse Temple, and Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple ca to their senses, knelt, and worshipped with devout expressions.
"The Buddha proclaims: Restore!"
A resonant voice erged from the restricted area.
A mystical energy enveloped the entire Western Buddhist World, healing the ravages of war. All collapsed Buddhist mountains, all sunken ground, and all destroyed Buddhist halls were restored to their original state.
In the blink of an eye, the shattered Western Buddhist World regained its pre-war appearance. Myriad golden lights radiated, and Buddhist chants drifted lodiously, creating a solemn and sacred atmosphere.
Even so injured disciples were completely healed!
"The Dharma Discourse Assembly shall continue!" the majestic voice echoed in everyone’s ears.
"We respectfully obey the Buddha’s decree!"
After paying their respects, the assembly of Buddhas sat on golden lotuses and resud their discourse on Dharma.
Waves of Buddhist teachings emanated from the Buddha of Understanding, the Monk of the Suffering World, and the Bodhisattva of Saving the World, echoing throughout the Western Territory. Purple light descended from the heavens, and golden lotuses surged from the earth, creating countless auspicious phenona.
Instantly, the Western Territory was restored to its forr tranquility.
Countless devout believers closed their eyes slightly, listening to the Buddhist chants.
Only the vanished Buddha City silently attested to the great war, the catastrophe, that the Western Territory had just endured.
「...」
"Pavilion Master, the soul jade tokens of Grand Elder Soul Annihilation and the Martial Artists from the Western Territory branch of the Eternal Temple... have all shattered!"
Inside the Eternal Temple, a figure nad Soul Bone cautiously entered the main hall and reported with reverence. His face, concealed beneath a black robe, betrayed a hint of terror and unease.
Three Great Emperor Realm Elders!
More than twenty Emperor Realm Elders!
Nearly three hundred Quasi-emperor Realm Protectors!
Such a formidable force, wiped out in such a short ti! Not a single one escaped!
What on earth happened on the Western Territory battlefield?
"What did you say?"
Soul Heavenly Emperor’s expression changed drastically. His usually calm composure was shattered, sending ripples through him. Flashes of saber light erupted around his body, and his terrifying, unparalleled saber intent nearly caused the main hall to collapse.
Soul Bone knelt, trembling, not daring to look directly at Soul Heavenly Emperor.
How could this be?
Don’t the three major temples in the Western Territory each only have one Great Emperor Realm Martial Artist garrisoned there? With the strength of Soul Annihilation and the Western Territory branch, even if they couldn’t annihilate the three major temples, disrupting the Dharma Discourse Assembly should have been more than enough!
Soul Heavenly Emperor’s face was filled with confusion.
He turned his head to look west. A profound white light suddenly surfaced in his deep eyes, imbued with the power of the Great Dao, capable of seeing through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, piercing endless spaceti, to gaze upon the exterior of the Western Buddhist World.
"Hmph!"
Just as Soul Heavenly Emperor’s gaze was about to penetrate the Western Buddhist World, the Wisdom Absolute Buddha within the restricted area opened his eyes and took out a golden stone.
"Conceal!" the Wisdom Absolute Buddha uttered softly, his hands forming mudras imbued with potent world-force.
Instantly, the Western Buddhist World vanished, drifting into the endless Void.
"Damn it! They actually refined a mustard seed world!" Soul Heavenly Emperor frowned slightly and withdrew his gaze, his expression grave.
He was certain that a terrifyingly powerful expert was presiding over the Western Buddhist World; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to detect his gaze, much less control the Western Buddhist World’s movent.
"It seems preventing the Dharma Discourse Assembly is no longer possible," Soul Heavenly Emperor muttered, his face etched with reluctance.
To be able to kill three Great Emperor Realm Martial Artists ans the expert presiding over the Thunder Sound Temple is very likely at the Supre Emperor Realm.
To continue obstructing the Dharma Discourse Assembly, one would have to dispatch a Supre Emperor Realm expert!
But there was one thing he couldn’t understand: how could the Thunder Sound Temple possess a Supre Emperor Realm expert?
After all, in the Dharma-ending Age, before immortal opportunities manifested, the Eternal Temple had dominated the continent for nine epochs and had only produced a single Supre Emperor Realm Martial Artist!
And that person was him!
Even his own breakthrough to the Supre Emperor Realm had relied on ’Master’!
Other than himself, the strongest Martial Artists in the Eternal Temple had only managed to reach the Peak of the Great Emperor Realm. Regardless of the thods they tried, none could step into the Supre Emperor Realm!
Besides them, there was only Jade Venerable of Immortality Mountain who had achieved a level surpassing the Supre Emperor Realm, but that was due to Immortality Mountain’s legacy!
So, what did the expert from Thunder Sound Temple rely on to break through to the Supre Emperor Realm?
"It seems I must pay Master a visit," Soul Heavenly Emperor mused. A faint black light flickered, and he vanished.
「A few minutes later.」
The kneeling Soul Bone lifted his head. Seeing the empty black throne, he breathed a silent sigh of relief, paid his respects, and slowly retreated.
「...」
「Within the Western Buddhist World!」
Without any external interference, the Buddha of Understanding, the Monk of the Suffering World, and the Bodhisattva of Saving the World were fully engrossed in their Dharma debate, using Buddhist teachings as their weapons in a relentless exchange.
The sky and earth dimd. The principles of the Buddhist Dao surged, each of them manifesting a separate Buddha Land!
「Ten hours later!」
The Buddha Land behind the Monk of the Suffering World rippled. Its Buddhist aura dimd, showing a lack of sustaining power, and he was the first to be defeated.
"Amitabha!"
The Monk of the Suffering World chanted the Buddha’s na, dispersed the celestial phenona around him, his expression serene, showing neither joy nor sorrow.
High above, the Buddha of Understanding and the Bodhisattva of Saving the World continued their Dharma debate. Their doctrinal exchange was like two armies clashing—the Buddhist teachings sharp, each point potentially decisive, the debate incredibly fierce.
「Three days passed in this manner.」
The Bodhisattva of Saving the World shook his head; the Buddha Land behind him gradually crumbled.
The entire celestial vault was now completely dominated by the Buddha Land of the Buddha of Understanding. Vast Buddha light shone brilliantly, countless golden lotuses descended from the heavens, and billions of illusory Buddhas knelt in worship.
"From this day forward, the three temples shall be one, and Buddhism shall erge in the world!" The Buddha of Understanding opened his eyes, his gaze benevolent. With hands clasped, he spoke in a clear, resonant voice.
A Law of Buddhism manifested, stretching across the sky!
The disciples of the three major temples knelt. Myriad rays of spiritual light soared into the firmant, converging to form a new stream of Fortune. This new Fortune engulfed the Fortune of the Thunder Sound Temple, coalescing into a new Golden Dragon of Fortune.
"The Buddha proclaims: White Horse Temple shall belong to Buddhism!"
"The Buddha proclaims: Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple shall belong to Buddhism!"
The Bodhisattva of Saving the World and the Monk of the Suffering World declared loudly.
BOOM!
BOOM!
The Heavenly Universe of the Western Territory trembled.
Above White Horse Temple and Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, two colossal Golden Dragons of Fortune, hundreds of millions of zhang long, cried out mournfully as they carried their vast oceans of Fortune to rge into Buddhism’s ocean of Fortune.
The Three Temples are United!
Buddhism Erges!
The Western Territory is Unified!
