Boom!
Deep in the West, the two highest immortal mountains suddenly exploded!
The two Buddhas who had never appeared before broke out of seclusion, their stern expressions mixed with a hint of panic that was almost impossible to see on the faces of the Immortal Emperors.
"not good!!!"
"Something happened!"
Now Buddha was suddenly horrified: "What?!"
He is the present Buddha, standing in the present world. He is the current apparent ruler of Buddhism, and the only Buddha who needs to stay awake at all times and deal with many Buddhist affairs.
But this does not mean that he is the strongest Buddha, nor the strongest person in Buddhism.
In comparison, these two Buddhas who have been in seclusion and never come out into the world are the true foundation of Buddhism and the real strong ones.
One of them is the Buddha of the past.
As the name suggests, he was based in the past and was a former leader of Buddhism. He had already entered the realm of Immortal Emperor for many years and was an older generation of Immortal Emperor. He could be regarded as the 'ancestor' of the current Buddha.
There is also a saying circulating among the people that the Buddha of the past and the Buddha of the present were originally one person, but because he practiced some amazing secret method, he was divided into two, one existing in the past and the other in the present.
Even this secret method has not been completed yet. The truly perfect state is the unity of the past, present and future!
Therefore, some people believe that no matter whether it is the Buddha of the past or the Buddha of the present, the ultimate goal is to cultivate into the "Future Buddha", thereby completing the feat of the three bodies in one, and pursuing a stronger realm above the Immortal Emperor.
However, these are just rumors, and there has been no conclusion yet, so no one knows whether they are true or false.
The other Buddha is called Tianxin.
Tianxin Buddha is the oldest Buddha in Buddhism so far. It has been countless years since he attained the status of Immortal Emperor. Before that, there has been no news of him for hundreds of millions of years.
In fact, most people believe that Tianxin Buddha had already passed away for some reason, such as failure in pursuing a higher realm...
But I never thought that he was still alive and stronger than before.
Terribly strong!
But at this moment, the three great Buddhas gathered together, and the two Buddhas of the Past and Tianxin were still shocked, which caused the current Buddha to be inexplicably horrified...
"what happened?"
Lin Fan was surprised and frowned.
He also knew something about Tianxin, the three great Buddhas of the past and present.
After all, they are on good terms with the Tianji Tower. These things may be big secrets for ordinary cultivators and small families, but they are nothing in the Tianji Tower.
Tianji Tower knew the whole story, and Lin Fan naturally had some understanding of it as well.
But precisely because of this, their performance at this moment surprised Lin Fan even more.
In the past, Tianxin Buddha always looked panicked?
He controlled the focus of the thirty-two-fold mirror technique and searched in the direction they were looking. Soon, his expression changed suddenly.
“What the hell?!”
In the 'screen'.
Endless dark air is eerie.
At some unknown time, the endless void above the Western Heaven, or the thirty-three heavens, were torn apart!
An indescribable space crack spanned the entire Western Paradise, and endless black air gushed out, almost submerging the Western Paradise and the Buddhist Kingdom in an instant!
"Om Mani Padme Hum..."
The Buddha's kingdom trembled, Buddha's light filled the sky, and Sanskrit chanting never stopped for a moment.
The sound of chanting stops and starts again.
But it seemed like a drop in the bucket. Although it had some resistance to the rolling black air, this effect... could only be said to be better than nothing.
Especially when the black gas surged and finally turned into a black lotus that shook the world and covered the entire Western Heaven, Lin Fan was immediately convinced...
This is a big fucking deal!
Black Lotus!!!
Isn't this thing the fucking black lotus of annihilation? !
What’s going on? They created a ‘descendant’ of the World-Destroying Black Lotus in the Xianwu Continent. Are they now directly confronting their ancestor?
Depend on!!!
“This thing…”
Tang Sanzang's face was extremely ugly: "What a shocking demonic energy, what on earth is this?"
"I call him the Black Lotus of Destruction."
Lin Fan said with a dark face: "A true innate creature, no, this thing should perhaps be called a chaotic creature, to use the words we are all familiar with..."
"The best way to describe it is... this thing is probably of the same generation and origin as Pangu in our traditional mythology."
"All were born from chaos, and all were born and raised by nature."
"All···"
"Terribly strong!"
"Fuck!"
When Tang Sanzang heard this, he immediately exclaimed, "So fierce?"
"Looking at the faces of these bald asses, maybe they know the identity of the World-Destroying Black Lotus? Moreover, they are unlikely to be able to handle it. Even if they can, they will have to pay a heavy price."
“That should be it.” Sun Wuxia said in shock, “I don’t know much about the World-Destroying Black Lotus, but the expressions of those Immortal Emperor-level Buddhas are so ugly, which is enough to explain everything.”
"brother."
Tang Sanzang looked at Lin Fan and said in shock: "Do you know the strength of this thing?"
Lin Fan spread his hands: "How would I know this?"
"I only know that this thing is terribly powerful, and it looks like it has a grudge against Buddhism. I'm afraid they've fought against each other before."
"But the fact that they were unable to do anything to the Buddhist sect before does not mean that they are a force at the level of the Immortal Emperor, right? But now that they have made a comeback, I wonder what the situation is like."
“···”
······
“Damn it!”
Now the Buddha's expression suddenly became extremely ugly: "It turned out to be... it?!"
"How could this be?!"
It suddenly turned its head and stared at the Buddha: "Hasn't it been suppressed by our Buddhist sect and the Heavenly Dao because it violated the Heavenly Dao before, and is it forbidden to leave forever?"
"In the beginning, you were in charge of this matter."
"How could such a big mistake happen, allowing it to reappear in the Three Thousand Continents?"
The Past Buddha also had an ugly expression on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Although I have experienced those things, I was not even an Immortal King at that time. How much can I know?"
"It's you, Tianxin Buddha..."
"It seems like you should know something, right?"
Tianxin Buddha sighed and said, "Amitabha."
"It's a sin, it's a sin..."
"Back then, the Black Lotus was extremely powerful. It almost slaughtered all three thousand continents with blood, and even wanted to swallow up the entire Sea of Boundaries."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
What the hell?
Annex the entire sea boundary?
This is so fucking cruel and audacious!
However, after hearing this, Lin Fan felt that Tianxin Buddha was most likely not bragging, because the World-Destroying Black Lotus was like this, it was not about how crazy or evil it was.
But...
Why did I name it the Black Lotus of Destruction?
Because this thing was originally born in chaos, took root in the chaotic void, absorbed all power and converted it into its own nutrients to supply its growth.
But later, it seemed to discover that the energy in the chaotic void was not that "excellent", so it gradually changed its thinking and began to send its roots into those big worlds.
Absorbing all the original power of the entire world can make it grow faster!
If we kill that person in Xianwu Continent, he will just be his 'descendants' after who knows how many generations, or his 'clone' that has been weakened countless times!
However, destroying the world is not actually the purpose of the Black Lotus of Destruction.
Become stronger!
However, the fastest way and process for it to become stronger is to devour and destroy one world after another.
Therefore, when Lin Fan heard that the World-Destroying Black Lotus was going to swallow up the entire Sea Boundary, he was not really surprised.
If other people had such ambitions, even if the Lord of the Immortal Palace said so, Lin Fan would think that he was bragging or fooling people.
Only the Black Lotus of Destruction...
Lin Fan believed that he really wanted to annex, no, swallow up the entire sea boundary!
······
"And then?"
Now the Buddha asked.
"later?"
"Amitabha." Tianxin Buddha chanted again: "At this moment, I will not hide it from you."
"As the saying goes, if the weather is sunny for a long time, it will rain; if a person is too arrogant, he will suffer misfortune."
"The World-Destroying Black Lotus is too ostentatious and too powerful. It has even forcibly spread its influence over multiple worlds, taking root in the Three Thousand Continents and several foreign lands, and absorbing the original power of these worlds."
"As a result, we naturally become the public enemy of these worlds."
"At the beginning..."
"No one in the Three Thousand Continents can rival Black Lotus, but that doesn't mean that even if people from multiple worlds join forces, they can't be his opponent."
"After noticing its existence, the Immortal Emperors in these worlds joined forces to defeat it."
Tianxin Buddha sighed: "In the beginning, I was one of them."
Past and Present Buddha grunted and swallowed his saliva: "The Immortal Emperors of so many worlds joined forces, but they only defeated it, but failed to kill it?!"
"good."
Tianxin Buddha sighed again: "The combat power of the black lotus may not be that strong, but its vitality is truly incredible."
"In that battle, thirteen Immortal Emperors joined forces."
"Among them there are even many veteran Immortal Emperors."
"And they all come from different worlds, with endless methods."
"But after a thousand years of fighting, according to common sense, even those brilliant Immortal Emperors should have been wiped out several or even dozens of times, but Black Lotus is still alive and well..."
"Not only does he not have the slightest intention of being killed, he can even keep fighting back!"
Everyone's scalp suddenly tingled after hearing this.
"Without any help, we can only negotiate with the Heavenly Dao..."
"After all, Black Lotus's act of destroying the world is also a calamity for the Heavenly Dao."
"So, Heaven also wants it to die!"
"Finally, under the guidance of Heaven, we seized the opportunity and successfully tricked Black Lotus. Not only did we weaken its combat power to the extreme, but we also sealed it in the depths of the endless void together with Heaven."
"Not only did they isolate all the energy related to him, making it impossible for him to recover and use his own strength, but they also suppressed the key objects that had been stored in the Buddhist sect and guarded for generations."
"I just didn't expect..."
"Something unexpected happened."
Now the Buddha is angry: "Where is the guardian object?"
"It was stolen..." Past Buddha said with an unpleasant expression, "I remember Tianxin told me about this, but nothing happened over the years, so I became careless."
“But it has been kept in the Buddhist sect until I scanned it with my spiritual sense just now and found that it had disappeared without a trace.”
"Why didn't you tell me?!"
Now the Buddha’s eyes were red and he asked harshly.
damn it!
Such an important thing, why didn't you tell me?
If you tell me...
cough.
Even if I didn't focus on that thing, I would definitely not be so careless!
"But when was it taken away?"
"Could it be..."
Now the Buddha suddenly realized: "Damn it, Zhu Bajie, no, that ancient demon, and... Sha Seng?!"
Understood!
At this moment, the Buddha now understands everything.
How could the ancient demon who used Zhu Bajie's corpse to revive be trying to delay time? He was clearly deliberately creating confusion to paralyze himself and focus all his attention on him!
Therefore, it would seem that he wanted to delay time, but in fact, he was desperate and was fighting against himself head-on, and finally he even exploded without any delay.
At that time, I found it strange.
The Immortal Emperor!
How difficult is it to become an Immortal Emperor?
How could he self-destruct without any regret?
Now it seems...
It was intentional!
Using the noise and destruction caused by the self-explosion, he covered up the 'Sha Seng' who stole those guarding objects and allowed him to leave the Buddhist land and the Western Paradise, thus allowing the Black Lotus to break the seal and return to the world!
The Past Buddha said in a low voice: "It is useless to say anything now."
"Tianxin Buddha, is there any way to force it back?!"
“···”
"Disaster."
Tianxin Buddha sighed and said, "It is too strong. Even though it has not made any progress in these years, it still makes people despair. However, we in the Buddhist sect will definitely not be able to defeat it."
"unless···"
"If all the Immortal Emperors of the entire Three Thousand Continents join forces, there is still hope."
"After all, after so many years, the immortal path has flourished, and the number of immortal emperors in the Three Thousand Continents has long surpassed that of the past. In addition, our strength has been growing over the years, while the Black Lotus has been suppressed and sealed, so its strength must not have increased."
"If we join forces, and Heaven is on our side... maybe we can seal it again."
Tianxin Buddha, who had fought with Black Lotus, knew how powerful it was.
Even though it seems that there are many Immortal Emperors in the Three Thousand Continents and they have superior strength, they still believe that there is not much hope.
"What's more..."
He lowered his voice and said, "The Three Thousand Continents are not a monolithic entity. I'm afraid the others would like our Buddhist sect to be destroyed so that they can share the benefits."
"How come?"
Now the Buddha frowned: "The Black Lotus wants to destroy the world, shouldn't everyone seal it together with a common hatred of the enemy?"
"Innocent."
The Buddha of the past sighed: "Have you been practicing for so many years that you have become a dog?"
"This world is no longer a world of black and white."
Now Buddha: “…”
Buddha Tianxin smiled bitterly and said, "Time passes, years change, and it is certainly difficult to capture the Black Lotus in the Three Thousand Continents today. Even if everyone attacks together, there may not be a chance of winning. But that doesn't mean that the Black Lotus can cover the sky with one hand, nor does it mean that everyone is afraid of it."
Just enough.
He didn't go on.
As for who is not afraid of the black lotus...
He believed that Buddha and the others now knew what was going on.
As Tianxin Buddha thought, now the Buddha could naturally understand the meaning of his words, but he still felt that it was not right. He frowned and said, "Although your guess is correct, you have overlooked a very important point."
"Great prosperity in the West!"
"The way of heaven has appointed, and Buddhism will flourish."
"Isn't this right?"
"Could it be that... they are all going to go against the way of heaven?"
"The Black Lotus is a creature of chaos. It is understandable that it is fearless and even wants to devour the Heavenly Dao, but the people of the Three Thousand Continents, do they want to go against the trend of the Heavenly Dao?"
“Pah, pah, pah.”
Crisp applause broke out.
“That’s right.”
“That’s absolutely right.”
The black lotus hung high in the sky, covering the entire Buddhist kingdom.
At this moment, a man with long hair and black robe walked slowly into the huge space crack.
He was barefoot, and every step he took was in the air, yet it seemed as if he was stepping on everyone's heart.
His face was like a volcano that had been frozen for thousands of years, with dark red lava flowing beneath his skin that was as pale as moon soil.
The undulating curves of the brow bones remind people of craters plowed by meteors, and each shadow tells of the desolation on a cosmic scale.
When the wind blows through the black hair that reaches her ankles, what floats between the hair is not luster, but the afterglow of the last struggle of a dying star before collapse.
The eyes were like two abysses with their irises peeled off, with broken prominence-shaped golden rings surrounding the dark pupils. When the eyes moved, cracks similar to glacier collapse could be seen spreading deep in the pupils - that was the topological projection of the twelve petals of the black lotus.
The bridge of his nose was like an obsidian cliff split by heavenly punishment, and his cheekbones on both sides glowed with the unique blue-gray cold light of metallic plutonium decay.
His lips were as thin as a knife blade, and when he occasionally moved the corners of his lips, he exuded a heart-pounding chill.
When you step on the void barefoot, an ash-like lotus mark will be left behind. Each footprint looks like a shining black lotus, as if it is about to be reborn someday!
Just an appearance.
That amazing aura shocked almost everyone.
“Hmm…”
"This is the taste of Three Thousand Continents."
“It’s really nostalgic.”
He opened his mouth, muttering to himself.
Then, suck!
He took a deep breath.
boom!!!
In just one breath, the world changed suddenly!
The spiritual energy and immortal energy of the entire Western Paradise, and even the surrounding hundreds of millions of miles, were all madly rolling back at this moment, like a whirlpool or a long river flowing backwards! It turned into a visible golden torrent that poured into his slightly opened lips.
In just one breath, he absorbed all the spiritual energy and fairy spirit from the Western Paradise and the surrounding area within billions of miles!
even···
It's not enough!!!
Along with this, the spiritual energy and immortal energy in this area are depleted.
Above the Western Heaven, the thirty-three layers of the sky seemed to be bitten by a giant invisible mouth. The eighty-four thousand Buddha lamps on the eaves of the Great Leiyin Temple suddenly went out. The magic weapons in the hands of the five hundred Arhats turned into ordinary iron and fell to the ground. Even the light between the eyebrows of the Buddha's golden body dimmed like a candle in the wind.
The 72 peaks of Lingshan Mountain were weathering to a grayish white at a speed visible to the naked eye. The relics embedded in the mountain exploded one after another, and the Buddha's light from the explosion was turned into wisps of white smoke before it could rise.
Deep in the Buddha's kingdom, inside the jade bottle, the nectar that had accumulated for countless kalpas directly vaporized into nothingness, and the willow branches in the bottle withered in an instant.
"not good!"
Several Immortal King-level Buddhas formed a formation to stop them, but the magic weapons in their hands fell apart the moment they left their hands.
Their golden bodies seemed to have encountered an ancient cold wave, starting from their fingers, gradually fading from their golden color, and even turning into clay! This shocking scene made them horrified and they immediately retreated behind the three Buddhas, no longer having the courage to attack.
"ah!!!"
The eight heavenly dragons further away let out shrill roars. The energy in their bodies was forcibly stripped away and they were "weathered" one after another...
Then, even the entire Western Paradise began to collapse.
The seven-layered railings of the Paradise collapsed on their own, and the glazed floor cracked into spider-web-like black lines, with black mist with a lotus smell gushing out from each crack.
The projections of the thirty-three heavens twisted and shattered in the void. The sun, moon, and stars hanging on the edge of the Dharma Realm fell one after another like ripe fruits, forming a burning road of star remains behind the man in black robes.
A breath...
The world is falling! (End of this chapter)
