Chapter 2016: Troublesome
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Tears flowed down the faces of many people in the western world army. They began to awaken in the cycle of samara, and understood that they have been tricked by the Buddha Sovereign’s dao, leading them to be unable to extricate themselves as they fell into his buddha dao. They actually abandoned everything and followed the western paradise. This was just too ridiculous.
Did they do it to pursue the great dao? Whose great dao were they pursuing?
If the western paradise managed to take over the Heaven Vault today, allowing the plan of the Buddha Sovereign to succeed, what use would that be to them?
Under the effect of Hua Taixu’s dao, more and more people awakened. The power of the giant buddha was also being weakened unceasingly. This naturally caused the threat posed by Qin Yuanfeng and the Grim Reaper to be stronger and stronger. They could already control the giant buddha. The supreme formation established from the faith of the western world army that allowed the giant buddha to use their faith power began to crumble.
But at this moment, cold smiles could be seen on the faces of the buddha lords of the western paradise. After that, one of them coldly spoke, “Junior brother, do you really think that your actions would be useful?”
Hua Taixu’s heart trembled. His handsome eyes turned to the giant buddha as a strong sense of unease suddenly filled his heart.
He was once a buddha lord of the western paradise and was very familiar with the dao arts and techniques they used. If his actions couldn’t even diminish the opponent’s strength, this probably meant that the Buddha Sovereign had mastered a heaven-defying grand dao completely. If this really is the case, his dao of samsara would probably be useless.
Boundless starlight cascaded from the sky. Countless constellations shined their light on the giant buddha and reflected the light from the giant buddha to the western world army after that. In an instant, the reflected buddhic light flared with magnificence, and began to spread and envelop a boundlessly vast space. Everyone in that space that was shined upon by the reflected buddhic light seemed to have established a mysterious connection with the giant buddha.
Buddhic chants filled the air, like the true speech of fate. The fate of the multitude of lives were like they no longer belonged to themselves. Buddhic light was emitted from their heads and they seemed like buddhic lamps that shone resplendently to illuminate the entire area. Everyone’s fate seemed to be lit up as well, burning away within the lamps.
The buddhic light flowed towards Hua Taixu, enveloping him and directly seeping into him. Hua Taixu’s expression drastically changed. He closed his eyes and his body actually began to tremble. He could faintly sense an illusory figure walking out from his body. This illusory figure had his appearance, and was a representation of his fate. Once his fate soul left his body, his fate would be in the control of others, the controller could make him do anything they wanted.
“The dao of fate can deliver everyone from sufferance. Who can still resist the righteous path of turning to Buddhism?” One of the buddha lords spoke, his gaze sharp to the extreme. So what even if the rebellious Hua Taixu was immensely powerful? Now, this already wasn’t the era where Hua Taixu lived his first life. At that time, the Buddha Sovereign couldn’t appear due to his injuries. Although the buddha lords of the western paradise knew of the existence of their godking, they also knew that he was injured and wasn’t able to direct the plans of the western world.
But now was different from the past. In this era, the Buddha Sovereign had already returned. He was the master of the western world. With him present, how could Hua Taixu be able to play any tricks?
Countless shadows manifested from Hua Taixu. All these shadows seemed to be him. He rapidly retreated and blasted out waves of samsara light, wanting to sever the connection between him and the buddha light.
“He failed.” Qin Wentian’s expression stiffened. They seemed to be only one step away from success but they still failed in the end. From that giant buddha, he could sense the power of fate. If the Buddha Sovereign truly could control fate, how could anyone in this world be able to contend against him?
All of a sudden, the giant buddha changed his target and began to attack Hua Taixu, like it wanted to destroy Hua Taixu who was a traitor of the Buddhist Sect.
Hua Taixu continued soaring up into the sky. The terrifying giant buddha grabbed out with a gigantic hand towards Hua Taixu. And just when Hua Taixu wanted to dodge, the entire space around him seemed to be locked. His body couldn’t seem to move. That giant hand grabbed out, containing boundless buddhic might that could immobilize the heavens.
Hua Taixu’s eyes of samsara shone with a terrifying light. The radius of the light expanded increasingly, shrouding his body as he entered a cycle of samsara. The buddha mobilizing force was broken. When that giant palm slammed down, Hua Taixu’s body had already arrived in another location.
However, the attacks didn’t stop. It was like the giant buddha wouldn’t stop unless Hua Taixu was killed. As for Qin Yuanfeng, the Grim Reaper and Qin Wentian, the three of them were ignored by the giant buddha. The three of them turned their gazes to the giant buddha and began to launch full power attacks that could destroy entire worlds at the buddha. The giant buddha manifested millions of palms and defended against the attacks but it had no way to block everything. Qin Yuanfeng’s force of the six paths penetrated through its head, shattering it completely. From this, one could tell how terrifying the destructive power that erupted forth was.
However, they had no time to be happy. The actions of the buddha palms didn’t stop and continued attacking Hua Taixu while defending against the barrage of other attacks.
“They can’t even kill him after blasting his head into pieces?” Many people were speechless. They stared at the headless gigantic buddha. Could it be that this wasn’t the original body of the Buddha Sovereign? How monstrous was he exactly?
Hua Taixu’s heart trembled when he saw the buddhic attacks continued being launched at him. He knew that although he didn’t manage to wipe away the dao of the other party earlier, in truth, his attack had some effects. If not, this buddha statue wouldn’t go all out, wanting to eliminate him.
Also when he saw that there was no effect despite the giant buddha head being shattered, he suddenly recalled a terrifying rumour in the western paradise. Shock filled his heart as he called out loudly. “Stop attacking the giant golden buddha body, this isn’t the Buddha Sovereign. It isn’t anyone at all. This gigantic statue is formed from the gathered faith of all buddhist cultivators in the world. Its controller can stay in the dark and its controller is undoubtedly the true godking of the western world. Even if this entire gigantic buddha body shattered apart, the Buddha Sovereign wouldn’t be injured at all.”
“In that case, even up until now, we haven’t seen the real Buddha Sovereign at all.” Qin Wentian felt some shock. So that giant buddha was formed from gathered faith. They haven’t even met with the Buddha Sovereign at all.
The opponent this time around was too troublesome. Truly unprecedentedly terrifying.
At this moment, a beam of light from outside the Heaven Vault flew over. This beam of light was incomparably resplendent and stopped right in front of the gigantic ancient buddha. This figure was actually a female. She was incomparably beautiful and exuded boundless magnificence. She then cast a glance at the location where Qin Wentian and the Grim Reaper were at. After that, she closed her eyes and her body was abruptly immersed in starlight. A moment later, another figure that was so beautiful that it caused everyone to be breathless appeared. This beautiful figure exuded a sense of peerless might like she was the ruler of an era.
Upon seeing that figure behind the first young woman, the gaze of the Grim Reaper froze. His body actually shuddered. He didn’t expect after so many years, he would still be able to see her returning. In addition, he would be fighting side-by-side with her!
