Tang Sanzang's body fell heavily to the ground, and at that moment, his chanting stopped abruptly.
In the final moments of his life, he struggled to turn his gaze and cast a final glance in the direction where Sun Wukong was.
His lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only moved them slightly and couldn't make a sound.
Faced with Tang Sanzang's gaze, Sun Wukong silently turned his head away.
After all, he was not the real Sun Wukong, and there was not much deep emotional entanglement between him and Tang Sanzang.
Although I felt a little sad about Tang Sanzang's passing, I did not feel too much grief.
In contrast, Pigsy and Sandy, who were not far away, were completely different.
Their faces were filled with grief and sorrow, tears welling up in their eyes, as if they had lost something most precious.
Just then, Yuanshi Tianzun took another step and came before another Buddha.
The Buddha's face turned ashen, devoid of any color.
Seeing this, his disciples behind him roared and rushed towards Yuanshi Tianzun without regard for their own safety.
Their eyes were filled with anger and despair, as if they were prepared to give their lives to protect their teacher.
However, Yuanshi Tianzun remained unmoved. With a gentle wave of his sleeve, a powerful force instantly sent the disciples who had rushed towards him flying.
They fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood.
Several people lay on the ground, their bodies convulsing uncontrollably, and then there was no more sound or breath.
Given their inherent nature, they are simply not qualified to be on the list of gods.
However, Yuanshi Tianzun was merciful after all, and did not let them completely perish. Instead, he preserved their true spirits and gave them the opportunity to be reincarnated.
At this moment, the Buddha saw that all his disciples had perished, and the fear in his heart had long been replaced by anger.
He leaped into the air without hesitation, his entire body like a burning meteor, rushing towards Yuanshi Tianzun.
"Even if it costs me my life, I will fight to the death to seek justice for my disciples!"
The Buddha's roar resounded through the heavens, as if the entire universe trembled, containing boundless determination.
Despite the Buddha's fierce attack, the Primordial Celestial Venerable remained extremely indifferent.
He simply raised the Three Treasures Ruyi in his hand slightly and shook it gently.
In an instant, an indescribable powerful force erupted, directly knocking the Buddha to the ground.
The Buddha rolled on the ground a few times, then floated up.
However, before he could regain his balance, the Three Treasures Ruyi suddenly and lightly struck down, hitting the Buddha on the head.
The Buddha's body stiffened abruptly, and his once bright eyes instantly dimmed.
Then, he fell backward, like a mountain collapsing.
The Buddha-lands that were suspended behind the Buddha's head had already dissipated their light and dimmed their auspicious glow, disappearing into the void as if swept away by a gust of wind, as if they had never existed.
Yuanshi Tianzun continued to move forward steadily, and the figure that appeared in front of him was none other than Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva.
At this moment, the Bodhisattva's eyes were wide open in anger, his expression solemn and dignified, and he held a golden staff tightly in his hand, which shimmered with dazzling light.
As the Primordial Celestial Venerable approached, the Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta showed no fear whatsoever.
Instead, he leaped from the lotus platform without hesitation, raised his staff high, and smashed it down on the head of Yuanshi Tianzun with tremendous force.
Yuanshi Tianzun slightly raised his eyelids, his eyes empty and chaotic.
Their eyes met, and Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva caught a glimpse of an indescribable loneliness in the depths of those profound eyes.
The staff, enveloped in a powerful Buddhist light, crashed down like a falling star.
However, faced with such a fierce attack, Yuanshi Tianzun simply raised his hand and slowly extended one index finger forward.
With a deafening roar, the Buddha's light instantly dissipated, and the Jade-white finger of the Primordial Celestial Venerable landed precisely on the Zen staff.
"Snap!"
With a crisp cracking sound, the staff broke in two and fell limply to the ground.
The Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta's face was full of astonishment, and he seemed to be frozen in place, completely unable to move.
His once resolute gaze became empty and lifeless, as if all his courage had been ripped from his body in an instant.
"I am powerless!"
He muttered bitterly to himself, a sad smile creeping onto his lips.
Then, he could only watch helplessly as that finger, like the scythe of death, mercilessly struck his brow.
With a loud bang, the Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta's soul exploded instantly, and his powerful magic power dissipated into nothingness.
His body collapsed limply, like a mountain that had been pushed over.
Just then, the Vajra Bodhisattva and the Immovable Bodhisattva rushed out from the side.
Each of them held a vajra that shone with golden light, and they rushed towards Yuanshi Tianzun with fierce momentum.
However, Yuanshi Tianzun neither dodged nor avoided the attack.
He simply waved the Three Treasures Ruyi in his hand lightly, sweeping it to the left and right.
In an instant, an indescribable power of the Heavenly Dao erupted.
The two bodhisattvas were thrown backward as if hit by cannonballs.
They fell heavily to the ground, and the Buddha's light emanating from their bodies quickly dimmed and eventually disappeared completely.
Immediately afterwards, their breathing ceased completely, and there were no more signs of life.
The Primordial Celestial Venerable strolled forward leisurely, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived before the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha.
At this moment, he finally stopped and slowly said, "Ksitigarbha! Is this hell empty now?"
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva lowered his hands and remained silent.
A hint of a sneer flashed deep in the eyes of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
After all, they were merely unorthodox individuals who, by deceiving the Heavenly Dao with grand vows, managed to steal some of the Great Dao's creation.
However, this approach is by no means the right one.
If one is unable to fulfill their vow, they will inevitably suffer the backlash of Heaven.
Their current predicament was actually predetermined when they made their grand vow...
The Primordial Celestial Venerable did not want to waste words on a person who was about to die. He simply raised the Three Treasures Ruyi Scepter and then lowered it.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva originally wanted to struggle and resist, and used Buddhist supernatural powers to deal with it.
But before he could fully unleash his magic, the lotus platform was knocked off by the Three Treasures Ruyi, and he completely lost all his life force.
Di Ting, who was originally lying beside the lotus platform, let out a mournful cry and immediately leaped off the lotus platform, tucked its tail between its legs, and ran towards the foot of Mount Ling.
Upon seeing this, the Primordial Celestial Venerable remained unmoved and did not attempt to intercept or kill him.
Although this Di Ting is extraordinary, it is ultimately just a beast. It escaped only because its life is not yet over...
