"It's too late to escape now."
After freezing all the heavenly soldiers, generals, and sea creatures, Wang Han's spirit stirred, and he disappeared into the sea.

At Mount Fuji, the demons gathered by the Jie organization suffered heavy casualties at the hands of the Buddhas, fleeing in disarray. Even though the Jie organization had a numerical advantage of more than ten times, the demons were slaughtered, leaving corpses strewn across the battlefield. Apart from a very few powerful demons with five hundred or even a thousand years of cultivation who could put up some resistance, most of them were only a few years, a few decades, or a couple hundred years old. Faced with these Buddhas who were comparable to heavenly soldiers and generals, they had no ability to resist at all.
At the summit of Mount Fuji, beside the crater, the Yamata no Orochi was already decapitated, its enormous corpse hanging in the crater like a rope, while the eight bodhisattvas who killed it were unharmed.
"Retreat immediately!"
However, with everything going so well, the Buddha's sudden message left all the Bodhisattvas and Buddhas astonished. Defeating the remaining demons was only a matter of time, yet they were suddenly told to retreat immediately.
"Something terrible has probably happened. We should follow Buddha's instructions and leave here as soon as possible," said Guanyin Bodhisattva.
"Very well, the remaining demons are no longer a threat." Upon hearing this, the other Bodhisattvas and Arhats nodded in agreement and together rode on auspicious clouds to fly westward. Compared to eliminating these insignificant demons, the chaos in India was the most troublesome problem for them. The Indians were being controlled by demons and were waging wars everywhere, causing widespread slaughter and even seriously affecting their fortune and interests.
"call out…."
Just as the eight Bodhisattvas and Arhats rode on auspicious clouds, a purple-black tailed beast jewel with a diameter of one kilometer shot over at lightning speed.
What is that?
"Boom..." The Buddha and the demons only had time to marvel before a huge explosion filled the area around Mount Fuji.
A mushroom cloud, tens of kilometers in diameter, rose from Mount Fuji, piercing through the clouds and pushing them into the distance. The enormous shockwave swept and tore everything within a radius of three hundred miles apart like a razor.

"That's ruthless!" Wang Mang, who had been watching the massive explosion of Mount Fuji from afar, couldn't help but sigh. He also began to worry about himself. The monsters on Mount Fuji hadn't retreated; Wang Han had wiped out all the monsters gathered there in one fell swoop.
————————————————
The massive explosion gradually subsided, and the tall plumes of smoke began to settle, piling up in a thick layer that buried the ruins.
"What was that just now? Was it magic?"
"The area is too large; there's simply no time to escape."
"If the distance were any closer, even if the real person were here, it would be difficult for them to survive the spell just now!"
The surviving Buddha-demons crawled out of the ruins and smoke, looking at the still-lingering dust with lingering fear. Had they been any closer, or weaker, they would likely be dead by now.
"Mount Fuji has vanished." The original Mount Fuji, riddled with wounds, from which the six Bodhisattvas and Arhats who had slain the Yamata no Orochi struggled to emerge from the thick smoke and dust. After using magic to isolate themselves from the surrounding smoke and dust, they surveyed the vanished world around them, maximizing their spiritual perception, wary of any movement. They gritted their teeth, knowing countless Buddhas had perished in the explosion. Even they themselves had fought with all their might to survive, and yet two Arhats had died, leaving them themselves in grave danger.
Although they had received a warning from Buddha and retreated quickly, the giant magic ball was aimed at them. Although they survived, they were still hit head-on and almost lost their lives. Now, their clones only have about 30% of their strength left.
"The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, let's get out of here first!" Manjushri Bodhisattva said. Anyone capable of using such powerful magic is undoubtedly very strong, perhaps even not much weaker than their true selves. Their clones are currently less than 30% strong and are no match for them. Although the death of these clones wouldn't mean true death, their true selves would lose half a percent of their strength. It's unknown how long it would take to recover that half a percent, and their primordial spirit would also be damaged.
"call out....!"
A sharp whistling sound suddenly rang out, and a transparent iron arrow covered in Armament Haki shot out rapidly from outside the smoke and dust, as swift as natural lightning, carving out a circular path in the smoke and dust.
"Pfft...!" The iron arrow arrived so suddenly and so swiftly that by the time Guanyin Bodhisattva heard the sound, Manjushri Bodhisattva had already been pierced through the chest by the arrow, and the inexplicable special energy on it had destroyed Manjushri Bodhisattva's primordial spirit. There was no time to react, and he didn't even have time to sense it with his spiritual sense.
"Get out of here quickly, and then we'll fight the enemy again," said Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, who took the lead and transformed into a beam of light, rushing out of the smoke and dust. Within the smoke and dust, the enemy was invisible and imperceptible, and even their attacks were difficult to detect. Meanwhile, the enemy could sense them from outside the smoke and dust, putting them at a significant disadvantage. Seeing this, the other Bodhisattvas quickly followed suit and flew out as well.

"Want to get out? Let me see what you're capable of doing to escape!"
Beyond the dust cloud, Wang Han, standing atop another mountain a hundred miles away, watched as Samantabhadra and the others tried to escape. He once again drew his twin-bladed iron bow to its full extent, coating the iron arrows with a layer of purplish-black Armament Haki. (Without Armament Haki, it's like shooting someone with instant noodles—it can't break through their defenses, nor can it kill their soul.)
