Chapter 2398 Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain"s Calamity, Blood Buddhist, Holy Bodhi Tree
Chu Kuangren did not care about the man who repented his sins and simply left with Guanyin.
After they left, a monk grabbed a sword and approached the man with a ferocious look. His eyes were bloodshot and bulging with rage.
He swung the sword at the man"s neck, beheading him with a clean slash.
Chu Kuangren and Guanyin noticed it but did not go back.
Even Buddhist cultivators who should be free of negativity would be taken over by rage, let alone the rest of the world.
Could saving all sentient beings really work?
Guanyin felt a hint of hesitation.
However, it only lasted for a second as she regained her confidence and wore a determined look on her face.
The spirit of challenging the impossible should be the nature of all cultivators!
From that moment onward, her mind became clear and unwavering.
Guanyin"s cultivation improved following her enlightenment.
Chu Kuangren sensed the subtle changes in her aura and nodded in approval. Guanyin was one of the few Buddhist cultivators he had high hopes for.
Soon, they arrived at the center of the Heavenly Buddha Pure Land — the Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain.
However, they could sense something strange about the mountain from afar.
The Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain should be holy and pure, yet it was shrouded in dark clouds, and terrifying rage qi surrounded the mountain foot.
"This is bad…" Guanyin"s expression turned serious.
Disaster had arrived inside the Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain.
Rage qi that materialized into dark clouds hovered above the peak. Numerous ferocious and vicious cultivators stood in the air under the dark clouds as they stared at the mountain.
They were all the wicked and ferocious men locked up in the Buddhist Tower.
They rallied and prepared to retaliate against the Heavenly Buddha Pure Land.
Their priority would be destroying the Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain.
"Listen up, bald heads! I will cut off all your heads and eat your flesh as snacks today!"
"You"ve locked me up for many years! It"s time to get revenge!"
"All you know is blast nonsense into my ears! I will kill every single one of you! I want to see what your Buddha can do!"
The vicious and wicked men taunted and threatened the Buddhist cultivators on the mountain.
The leader was a man in white who looked honorable and elegant. He looked nothing like a vicious criminal, but his hands were covered in blood as if they were formed purely out of blood.
He was the leader of the Notorious Four, whose name was long forgotten.
After he was locked up in the Buddhist Tower, he single-handedly subdued every other prisoner inside and became their leader.
He was known as Blood Buddhist!
Beside him were three more ferocious figures with overflowing rage qi.
One of them was a woman in red, looking alluring. She wielded a th.o.r.n.y wipe that resembled a rose"s stem.
There was an elderly with white hair and a face that resembled a withered log.
Lastly, there was a minotaur who had a strand of skulls as a necklace. However, the minotaur wore a kasaya and was glimmering in Buddhist Light.
Skulls and Buddhist Light were a strange combination. It felt holy yet wicked at the same time.
"Blood Buddhist, Lady Red, Master Wood, and Minotaurus, all of the Notorious Four from the Buddhist Tower are here. And there are so many others!"
"This is a disaster for the Pure Land!"
The Buddhist cultivators were worried. To suppress the riot across the Pure Land, most of the stronger cultivators were sent to subdue the rioters and help the people.
There were only so many cultivators left in the Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain.
"Today is a memorable day! After today, everything about Buddhism will be erased!" Blood Buddhist said coldly as he looked at the Buddhist cultivators.
At the same time, a flash of Buddhist Light shone.
A handsome Buddhist cultivator arrived on a huge condor.
The endless Buddhist Light he carried felt n.o.ble and prestigious.
The Buddhist cultivators were delighted by the person"s arrival.
"The Buddha Emperor! The Buddha Emperor is here!"
"This is great!"
The emperor of all Buddhas had arrived.
With his arrival, the cultivators on the mountain regained their confidence.
Blood Buddhist stared at Buddha Emperor with frosty killing intents. "You finally showed up."
The tension in the air felt like living purgatory to the Buddhist cultivators.
The holy Buddhist Light from the Buddha Emperor overwhelmed the b.l.o.o.d.y purgatory sensation in the air. "It has been so many years, yet you"re still trapped in your own anger, Blood Buddhist."
"Buddha Emperor, you"ve locked me up in the stupid tower for so many years, and you want me to free myself from the anger? Are you out of your mind?"
"You murder people and cultivate wicked techniques with the blood of your people. I don"t want to kill you because I want you to repent your sins and turn over a new leaf. That is mercy."
"They"re a bunch of ants! Why cry when a bunch of ants dies?" Blood Buddhist scoffed.
He raised his hand and clenched his fist.
It was a sign for the other wicked men to attack. "Kill them!"
"Kill the bald heads!"
Blood Buddhist stepped forward, releasing the aura of a Monarch. The Ultimate energy was channeled and blasted at Buddha Emperor.
"Today will be the end of all Buddhist cultivators on this stupid mountain!"
"Buddhism is almighty. Buddhism is all, and all are Buddhist. You might kill everyone here, but can you kill every sentient being?" Buddha Emperor said.
Then, he countered with a palm strike.
The palm energy manifested into a dragon and elephant, carrying terrifying power.
"Bang!"
The clash between Ultimate energies pushed Buddha Emperor and Blood Buddhist back.
"Haha! Buddha Emperor, you"re injured badly! This time, I will win!" Blood Buddhist cackled.
After that, he summoned his avatar, which resembled a sea of blood.
Buddha Emperor, too, summoned his Buddha Avatar.
However, he frowned as he summoned the avatar. The injuries he sustained from the battle with the Void Ruler persisted, and it would greatly affect his powers.
"If I"m no match for you, even if it costs me my life, I will protect the Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain!" Buddha Emperor said strongly.
"Bang!"
The fight between Buddha Emperor and Blood Buddhist continued.
Terrifying energy waves rippled outward.
One of them released a demonic aura that shadowed the sky, while the other released holy Buddhist Light, blessing the land with peace and harmony.
The clash shook the entire mountain violently.
"Bodhi Saint Qi!"
Buddha Emperor performed a series of mystical hand seals. Then, at the peak of the mountain, a golden light shone, and a holy Bodhi tree shook violently.
Beams of Buddhist Lights were released and gathered on Buddha Emperor, boosting Buddha Emperor"s energy level.
In response to that, Blood Buddhist channeled his demonic cultivation technique to the limit.
Skeletons emerged from the b.l.o.o.d.y ocean around him, wailing and crying. The rage qi and vengeful qi intertwined and hit the Bodhi Saint Qi.
The clash between two energies shook the mountain once more.
Further away at the mountain peak, a little monk arrived before the ma.s.sive Bodhi tree. He looked at it with a strange grin.
"It worked. The Buddhist Tower is ruined, and Blood Buddhist and others are besieging the Heavenly Buddha Spirit Mountain. If Buddha Emperor wants to fend them off, he will have to use the Bodhi Saint Qi, and it will allow me to release the Desire Buddha"s energy from underneath!"
