  “You’ve finally dropped out of it and should be nurturing your vitality. Otherwise, you might not be able to improve at all and might even lie in your grave sooner or later.”

  “You’re seeking revenge. And yet, with your current strength, won’t my sword just end up piercing through your head once more?” As Traveling Monk Hui An spoke, he raised his hand and lifted his Reckless Iron Rod. Then, he swung it towards Li Xingba’s square-edged golden swordbreaker.

  Li Xingba retorted, “Stop twisting your words! Thanks to you, I was forced to become an Investiture God and wasted so much time. How much stronger are you compared to me, anyway? Since the Ancient era until the Middle era, you’ve only been remaining by the Grand Virtual Immortal Realm!”

  “And yet, I still have the chance of becoming a Tathagata, or ascending to the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm, no matter how minuscule my chances of succeeding are.” Traveling Monk Hui An didn’t mind Li Xingba’s words and wasn’t enraged by it. He said peacefully, “But, do you have such a chance? I’m afraid even you have no confidence in yourself, right?”

  “Unless, if you join the heretics.”

  Li Xingba was so furious; steam seemed to have been released from his nose. He swung his golden swordbreaker and hit it towards Traveling Monk Hui An.

  Traveling Monk Hui An sneered and held the metal rod with both hands, parrying his opponent’s square-edged golden swordbreaker once again.

  Then, two rays of sword-lights flickered at the same time behind his back. The Curved Twinblades of Wu were suddenly unsheathed, and the phantom-like sword-lights instantly reached the front of Li Xingba!

  “Slow down!” Daoist Crimson Mist yelled lightly and extended both of his palms together, casting the Crimson Mist Ten Chapters’ arts.

  The crimson red mists fell upon the screen of water formed by the Three Brilliances Sacred Water.

  The water screen trembled. Although it didn’t dissipate, the Earth Splitting Pearl wasn’t stuck to the screen of water anymore.

  The dark yellow pearl flew back to Li Xingba. Just as Traveling Monk Hui An’s sword-light was about to hit him, his pearl managed to fend off the sword-light.

  Only, Curved Twinblades of Wu was a twinblade. Even if one sword-light was blocked, another one continued slashing towards Li Xingba.

  “I heard about the magnificence of the Curved Twinblades of Wu. Now that I finally managed to see it personally, it truly lives up to its name,” said Gao Han in a complex manner. He extended his hand, and a brilliant long banner appeared within his hands as if the sun and stars were gathered together.

  With a hook, the Holy Radiance Banner managed to block the second sword-light.

  The sword-light trembled and flew backward. Both the Curved Twinblades of Wu re-entered the sheath behind Traveling Monk Hui An.

  “

  Oh?

  ” Traveling Monk Hui An looked towards Daoist Crimson Mist, mildly surprised, “You’re able to suppress the effects of the Three Brilliances Sacred Water?”

  Daoist Crimson Mist remained silent. Both his palms pressed onto the water screen at the same time and retracted. With this, the crimson red mist’s seemingly tangible hands that were pulling the water screen slowly solidified itself.

  On the other side, other Buddhist Bhantes came forward, surrounding them.

  The group of Demon Race experts didn’t make any move immediately. Instead, they were still observing the situation.

  After seeing Yan Zhaoge and the others fighting against the Western Pure Lands’ Traveling Monk Hui An for the Three Brilliances Sacred Water, the few Demon Race experts looked towards each other, nodded, and finally joined the fray.

  In particular, the two Great Rocs aimed towards Traveling Monk Hui An with precision.

  Previously, Traveling Monk Hui An was causing them troubles using the Three Brilliances Sacred Water.

  Now that the problem could be solved, the two Great Rocs didn’t intend to retreat just like that.

  Even if they left now, they would merely welcome a moment of peacefulness.

  However, if they could thoroughly take care of the Three Brilliances Sacred Water, it would be an eternal peacefulness for the Great Rocs.

  Upon seeing this, Traveling Monk Hui An used his Curved Twinblades of Wu once again. He forced Li Xingba and Daoist Crimson Mist into retreat and lifted the water screen formed by the Three Brilliances Sacred Water, hindering the two Great Rocs’ path.

  A queer scene unfolded. Great Rocs were able to travel hundreds of millions of miles with just a wave of their wings. And yet, as soon as the wind current released by their wings were blocked by the Three Brilliances Sacred Water, even if the Great Rocs themselves never came into contact with it, their speed still slowed down abruptly.

  As soon as the Great Rocs’ speed slowed down, Traveling Monk Hui An immediately lifted his metal rod and aimed it towards their heads.

  Despite slowing down, the light storms released by the Great Rocs’ wings tore through the fabrics of the void, making Traveling Monk Hui An’s metal rod unable to advance any further.

  The Great Rocs lowered their claws and attempted to grab Traveling Monk Hui An’s limbs.

  If they managed to grab him, no matter how tough a Buddhist’s Vajra Body was, their limbs would still be torn apart upon force exertion.

  A golden lamp lit up atop Traveling Monk Hui An, and a sarira appeared within the golden lamp.

  As the sarira’s treasured light radiated, the surrounding space suddenly turned blurry.

  Using this opportunity, he turned around and avoided the two Great Rocs’ lunge.

  However, at this moment, sunlight illuminated the entire world. A silhouette suddenly appeared beside Traveling Monk Hui An. It was Gao Han.

  Gao Han shook the Holy Radiance Banner with his right hand, parrying Traveling Monk Hui An’s Reckless Metal Rod. Then, he grabbed towards Traveling Monk Hui An’s crimson red gourd with his empty left hand.

  Traveling Monk Hui An retracted the Curved Twinblades of Wu behind his back, and flung them towards Gao Han.

  Brilliances concentrated atop Gao Han’s head, and his vigor experienced a fanatical surge.

  As Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng saw it, they were both surprised. The one that appeared on Gao Han’s head was the Duo Flowers Converged Crown.

  After Suo Mingzhang destroyed one flower, Gao Han managed to recover it back. The speed of recovery was much faster than anyone had anticipated.

  However, after noticing it for a while, they had to retract their concentration.

  The other Buddhist Bhantes that came along with Traveling Monk Hui An started making their moves. Yan Zhaoge and the others had to deal with them carefully.

  All of a sudden, more than one Virtual Immortal Realm expert made their moves, and the sonorous voice of the great dao filled the entire surroundings. Even if Yan Zhaoge was proficient in the Peerless Heavenly Scripture, and his foundations of cultivating the Three Clear arts were solid enough, he felt as if his eardrums were going to burst. He was dazed with stars spinning around his head.

  He took a deep breath and calmed his mind. He didn’t care about the current situation and took out the treasures and materials he had prepared beforehand. Then, he shook them within the void.

  Feng Yunsheng stood firmly beside him. With the long saber in her hand, she slashed it in a circular manner.

  The black saber left an indelible mark within the void as if the entire space was being separated from the void’s boundless outskirts.

  Within the marks, black lights shot towards the skies, as if it was forming a shapeless barrier that was isolating Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng away from the outside world.

  The jet-black sword-light seemed to be the ending point of everything. No matter what was facing it, they could do nothing but halt.

  The majestic sonorous voice of the great dao was immediately cut off.
Shapeless sonorous voice and Buddhism chantings dissipated upon coming in contact with the black-light barrier, forming circles of powerless ripples.

  A Buddhist Bhante got near to the barrier and looked towards Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng. He softly chanted the sutra and extended both his palms together while striding forward in an attempt to pass through the saber mark left behind by Feng Yunsheng within the void.

  Buddhism lineage’s martial arts were unique. They were perfected and flourished by the hands of the central Blessed Lands of Saha’s owner, the Mystical Mountain Tathagata Buddha that had already transcended.

  Before the central Blessed Lands of Saha, when the Western Pure Lands appeared within the world, the Western Second Patriarch had already ventured a new pathway before the Grand Clear Daoism disseminated their teachings to the world. Now, the new path was the embodiment of the current Buddhism lineage martial arts.

  Both of these arts fused together and slowly formed the Buddhism martial arts, a martial art that was different from the Daoism martial arts.

  Although there were points of reference, many parts were inherently different.

  Among Buddhism martial arts, the ones that used the Threefold Teachings as its base, the Four Noble Truth as its essence, and the Thirty-seven Bodhipakkhiya Dhamma as its backbone would be the official lineage. Below, all other separated ones would develop to become branches.

  Just like the Daoism lineages, when fighting against external enemies, Buddhism’s branched martial arts won’t necessarily pale in comparison to Buddhism lineage’s martial arts. In fact, it might even surpass the Buddhism lineage’s ones.

  However, when cultivating within their own body, they would ultimately walk back to the same path in the end, no matter how much disparity existed between each martial art.

  Going further up, they would break through karma, illuminate the true path, bear the true intent of having no identity, and achieve perfection in intelligence.

  In this regard, the Western Pure Lands weren’t all that different from the central Blessed Lands of Saha. However, the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus was different. Due to the Future Buddha reformatting the scriptures, even if zen and martial art were still present within, zen wasn’t used to cultivate one’s own body, awaken one’s intelligence, achieve one’s goal, or illuminate the world anymore.

  The Buddhist Bhante in front of Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng was of the Western Pure Lands’ lineage.

  He raised his hands and executed the Thirty-seven Bodhipakkhiya Dhamma’s Satipatthana Seal’s final seal – Contemplating the Non-Selfhood of Phenomena.

  Phenomena refer to the myriad of phenomena. All sorts of living entities with emotions, and all sorts of items without emotions were all described as the myriad of phenomena. After all, they were born from karma and the combination of falsehood.

  The parting of karma and the disillusionment were all false. Among the phenomena, the impermanence of life and death was initially the false notion of ego.

  While executing the Non-Selfhood Seal, the Buddhist Bhante continued to circulate the Four Noble Truth’s third truth – Nirodha, the truth of annihilation.

  Annihilation means Nirvana, the meaning of extinction, and the elimination of the troubles and the retribution of life and death among the Three Realms. By liberating oneself from life and death, one won’t experience life’s troubles and death from the Three Realms anymore. They would achieve Nirvana and liberate themselves from such affairs.

  As the two arts fused with each other, they transformed into an intent that signified the end of all phenomena, the breakthrough of all troubles, and the ascension to the relief of sufferings.

  In actual combat, it had the same effects as one of the Prime Clear Lineage’s Numinous Treasure Four Swords – the Immortal Exterminating Sword Scripture.

  Although this Buddhist Bhante hadn’t been outside of the Buddhist Lands for ages, he could tell how remarkable Feng Yunsheng’s saber intent was. As such, he dared not underestimate it and fused every essence he had learned in his first move.

  Blue-black devilish flames jumped around within Feng Yunsheng’s eyes. Without moving, she held the long saber horizontally in front of her chest and had no intentions of moving away, resembling an extraordinarily stable and sturdy mountain.

  The Buddhist Bhante, whose cultivation was similar to Daoism’s Virtual Immortal Realm, landed his attack on the black-light screen. The black-light screen remained as calm as ever, and no ripples could be seen.

  As for the translucent and clear Buddha light, it dissipated and disappeared into nothingness.

  “Even by just guarding, she has such a force.” Everyone present was shocked, “She seems like the kind whose offense is much stronger than defense.”

  Upon seeing this, Traveling Monk Hui An frowned as well, “No wonder why this woman was listed as someone to be held in high regard. The Doomsday Heavenly Devil’s authority aside, her talents are exceptional as well. Almost no one in the Virtual Immortal Realm can go up against her with the two combined. It feels like she’s deliberately holding herself back…”

  He looked towards the side of Feng Yunsheng and saw the seemingly quiet Yan Zhaoge. He frowned even harder, “This person’s reputation isn’t for nothing either…”

  As he was contemplating, Traveling Monk Hui An’s figure dodged towards the side.

  A scorching sun tore through the fabrics of the void. It transformed into boundless and endless radiances, which he barely dodged.

  Gao Han smiled, turned around, and parried away the Curved Twinblades of Wu. Then, he attacked Traveling Monk Hui An once more.

  “He’s much stronger than that Li Xingba.” Traveling Monk Hui An blocked Gao Han’s attack and sighed in his heart, “The newer generation truly surpassed the older generation.”

  At this moment, the battlefield was a mess, and fights broke out everywhere.

  Other than Feng Yunsheng and Yan Zhaoge isolating themselves from the fighting resolutely, others had all begun fighting.

  “It’s done,” blurted Yan Zhaoge.

  He clasped his palms together, and rays of radiances danced around the front of his eyes. Finally, they dimmed down and transformed into dusky clumps of radiances.

  As Yan Zhaoge pressed his hand downwards, the clump of light fell upon his feet and quickly expanded. It then transformed into a vast spiritual cursed seal.

  Strips of dim streams of lights expanded outwards and enveloped the surrounding.

  Even the faraway void was being filled up, and the concept of distance seemed to be lost.

  A heavy feeling was weighing down on everyone’s chest.

  “The true intent of the Earth Mother’s lineage?” Daoist Crimson Mist came to a revelation, “It’s not her lineage’s supreme martial art, but instead a slip that she wrote herself?”

  The power which Yan Zhaoge was utilizing originated from the Later Earth Text, which was buried deep within the World beyond Worlds’ Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory’s Royal Reed Sea!

  During that time, to acquire this treasure, the Great Xuan Dynasty had crossed the seas and stepped upon the Royal Reed Sea under the Heavenly Emperor’s instructions. They spent hundreds of years searching for it.

  Later, when the Great Xuan Dynasty was obliterated under Yan Zhaoge and the Broad Creed Mountain’s hands, the Heavenly Emperor could only return with disappointment.

  During that time, Yan Zhaoge’s cultivation was still considerably low, and he couldn’t obtain the Later Earth Text. As such, he could only leave it by the Royal Reed Sea.

  The Heavenly Emperor wanted to look for an opportunity to acquire the Later Earth Text from the Royal Reed Sea. When the Earth Exalt was besieging Xue Chuqing, the Heavenly Emperor joined in to assist him. However, he failed to do so in the end.

  When Yan Zhaoge moved the World beyond Worlds’ Five Territories into the Pill H
all, the Heavenly Emperor could forget about the Royal Reed Sea and the treasure buried within which he coveted.

  After Yan Zhaoge managed to push open the Immortal Door and ascended to the True Immortal Realm, he finally managed to obtain the Later Earth Text with the assistance of the Earth Mother Dao Ritual!

  The Pill Hall had already transformed into the Awakened Sky Cosmos. Naturally, Yan Zhaoge couldn’t bring it along with him, nor was he able to display the Overseer of Heavens, Awakened Benevolent Guardian Divinity to fight against others.

  However, since he decided to take the risk, he had to make some preparations as well.

  As the Later Earth Text exerted its strength, rays of radiances were being paved outwards.

  As the streams of lights gathered together, an illusory radiance slowly formed around Yan Zhaoge’s head.

  The illusory radiance resembled a vast and boundless existence that could carry the skies, reign in every matter that was happening, and all the subtle truths of yin and yang’s circulation.

  “Fuse!” As Yan Zhaoge yelled softly, nine bulky radiance pillars arose from the spirit patterns surging beneath him, as if these pillars were pulled out from the ground.

  The light pillars that seemed capable of supporting the heavens stood aloft by the void as if it was holding the sky or supporting a divine palace atop.

  “Edict!” Yan Zhaoge continued his hand seal’s transformation. Immediately, seven seemingly brilliant yet dim clumps of radiances arose within the colossal formation.

  Within the void’s outskirts, the seven clumps of light were like seven groups of nebulas that were self-circulating. Mighty strength seemed to be contained within, along with an abundance of vitality.

  As the colossal formation circulated, layers of formations connected with each other and fused as one.

  Yin Yang Nine Splendour Seven Treasures Array Formation!

  All the Buddhist Bhantes that were within the formation felt a sudden weight on their body!
