Seeing the Buddha chanting mantras and performing the Six-Syllable Mantra, Zhang Bairen responded with the Eight Trigrams Mantra.

Om, Moo, Ge, Ah, Roar, Dudu, Zao, Dao, the eight sounds resonate together, shattering the void, the eight worlds, facing the six-syllable mantra.

This is the original sound that Zhang Bairen comprehended after devouring the eight great demons.

The Qian trigram governs celestial phenomena. The Book of Changes says, "Great is the Qian Yuan, from which all things originate." This means that the Qi of Qian Yuan gives birth to all things. "Om" corresponds to Qian and represents that the Qi of Qian Yuan governs life and death.

Kun represents the earth, and the phrase "Great is Kun, from which all things are born" describes the process by which the earth bears and nourishes all things. "Moo" corresponds to Kun and represents the cycle of all things from birth to death.

The Zhen trigram represents thunder, and the Book of Changes states, "The thunder shakes a hundred li," and "The laughter and chatter are deafening." In ancient times, "hundred li" referred to the fiefdom of a vassal state, indicating the thunder's deafening force. The "clucking" sound represents the inability to speak when thunder arrives, leaving only a clucking sound from the throat. Furthermore, since Zhen represents the due east, and its first line is a yang line, it can be interpreted as sunrise and the east, and the "clucking" sound can be understood as the crowing of a rooster.

Kan represents water, and the Book of Changes mentions "Xi Kan," signifying numerous hardships and dangers. It also often involves "crossing rivers," suggesting that while Kan is fraught with peril, it also signifies passage. The sound "Ah" corresponds to Kan, representing encountering danger. A woman encountering a bad person on the street late at night would typically utter an "Ah" sound.

The trigram Gen represents a mountain, signifying immovability. In the Book of Changes, it often signifies "stopping," meaning that the yang line, upon reaching the third line, has reached its limit and can go no further. "Roar" corresponds to "Gen," representing the yang energy reaching its end, a desperate situation with nowhere to go, and is associated with the phrase "the ninth line at the top, the dragon soaring too high, there is regret."

The hexagram "Xun" represents wind, and can also symbolize wood, signifying gentleness. However, the second and third lines are yang lines, respectively in the center and in their proper positions, thus allowing for the application of the principle of firmness and moderation, as exemplified by the idiom "咄" (duō), meaning aggressive or domineering. Wind has no fixed form; the Book of Changes states, "The wind blows it, the rain moistens it," the former referring to the gentleness of the wind, and the latter to the warmth of the rain. However, the ninth line of the Xun hexagram reads, "It has lost its axe," indicating an excessive yang force. "咄" corresponds to Xun, suggesting that wind, though formless, can be both firm and gentle, embodying the principles of yin and yang.

"Li" represents fire, and can also be extended to the sun, the Mingyi bird, etc. "Zao" corresponds to Li, and can be the same as dryness, and has the meaning of brightness.

“兑” represents the lake and also signifies speaking or happiness. “叨” corresponds to “兑” and clearly implies speaking.

Around Zhang Bairen, eight illusory worlds appeared, spinning wildly outwards as if in a cycle of reincarnation. These eight overlapping spaces were far more complex than simply eight phases rotating.

The interaction of heaven and earth gives rise to the two energies of yin and yang, and the fusion of water, fire, wind, and thunder gives birth to the hazy, chaotic primordial energy.

Heaven, earth, water, fire, thunder, mountain, wind, and marsh, accompanied by the vibrations of the eight tones, all rotated together, and in an instant, they shattered the six-syllable mantra of the Tathagata Buddha.

The sky is high and distant, the earth is thick and heavy, the water is like a vast ocean, the fire burns the heavens, the thunder shakes the sky, the mountains shake the firmament, the wind tears dimensions, and the marshes are like the underworld.

The eight tones and eight forms continued forward, heading straight for the Buddha's sixteen-foot golden body, without stopping for a moment.

"Amitabha! This humble monk concedes defeat!"

!

The golden lotus platform closed instantly, protecting the Buddha inside and forming a lotus-shaped envelope.

However, in just a short while, eight lotus leaves on the dazzling golden twelve-petaled lotus platform had already shattered.

Zhang Bairen manipulated the Eight Phases World, completely enveloping the golden lotus platform.

Then, he used his inner world to take the golden lotus platform into it.

In this battle, with the full support of his inner world, the Eight Phases World technique he unleashed was arguably one of the strongest moves currently available.

It is far more powerful than any single law.

When interconnected laws are unleashed simultaneously, their power is indeed multiplied.

The power of the eight laws forms the complete Bagua, which not only creates the eight-phase world, but also conforms to the rules of the inner world, and contains the true words of the Bagua, which contain the origin of the Bagua.

With each layer stacked upon the last, the power is far beyond what can be described as merely multiplying.

In short, the Great Sun Tathagata, whose energy level was inferior to Zhang Bairen's, was defeated by supernatural powers despite having the advantage of magical treasures.

Now, they have even entered Zhang Bairen's inner world.

Looking at the chaotic and disordered universe, Zhang Bairen left behind a clone to organize the universe's rules.

As for the true body, it entered the inner world.

Looking at the golden lotus bag in front of him, Zhang Bairen snapped his fingers lightly.

Instantly, the power of the world surged forth, forcibly opening the lotus pouch.

The Great Sun Buddha, who was chanting sutras with his eyes closed, opened his eyes as if he had a premonition.

"Benefactor, could you spare my life?" The aloof and supreme Buddha asked in a very down-to-earth manner.

"Of course."

"However, I need some spoils of war," Zhang Bairen replied.

"Amitabha Buddha, may I ask what spoils you require, benefactor?" Vairocana Buddha breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to inquire.

"Buddhist accumulation, Buddhist inheritance, Buddhist ritual implements, that's basically it." After Zhang Bairen finished speaking, he looked at the golden lotus platform with only four lotus leaves left.

The Great Sun Tathagata immediately understood and floated down from the lotus platform.

“Benefactor, this Lotus Platform of Merit needs to be nurtured with the golden light of merit. After I return to Mount Sumeru, I will also have the Eight Treasures Merit Pool to offer you,” the Buddha said.

"Yes, no problem, no problem." Zhang Bairen nodded and placed the golden lotus platform into the Eight Phases World.

This lotus platform had eight lotus leaves destroyed by the Eight Phases World, which to some extent created a connection between the Eight Phases World and the lotus platform.

After retrieving the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, Zhang Bairen planned to use the power of merit, the power of the Eight Trigrams, and energy cubes to forcibly accelerate the ripening of the golden lotus platform that had already lost its grade.

Now, the golden lotus platform is to continue to adapt to the power of the Bagua.

When the Buddha saw the place where the golden lotus platform belonged, his face twitched involuntarily, as if he felt some heartache and reluctance.

"I don't want your junk anymore. Remember to take it with you when you leave."

"Also, now open your mind, I need to search your memories." As Zhang Bairen spoke, he used the power of the world to lock down the Great Sun Tathagata.

Upon hearing the Tathagata's call to search the soul, the mind instinctively rebelled.

However, within this inner world, the Great Sun Tathagata, whose strength was already inferior to Zhang Bairen's, had no power to resist.

"Don't resist, or you'll suffer even more!"

You should know that in my world, you cannot commit suicide, you cannot resist, you can only try to erase some of your memories.

But would that be of any use? All I want is a Buddhist technique with no backup plan.” Zhang Bairen’s words reached the ears of the Buddha, and the Buddha suddenly realized something, and began to try to delete certain inner secrets that could not be known to others.

Two minutes later, Zhang Bairen ended the soul search.

It must be said that the Buddha's memories are indeed vast and boundless.

Although it didn't encompass the entire Buddhist tradition and secrets, it still took Zhang Bairen two minutes of his time.

Zhang Bairen suddenly turned around and changed his appearance in front of Buddha.

In an instant, a completely new Tathagata appeared before Vairocana Buddha.

"Venerable Tathagata, do I look like him?"

"If I return to Mount Ling with this identity, I should be able to empty the entire Mount Ling, right?" Zhang Bairen asked with a smile.

The Great Sun Buddha had nothing to say, so he could only close his eyes and recite Buddhist scriptures.
