Rumble!
At this moment, as the round light transformed from [One with the World] slowly rotated, sounds of shocking thunder instantly rang out between heaven and earth, causing Buddha Child Guang Ming to frown.
The Buddha palm also stagnated because of it.
If the World Honored One were truly here in person, he naturally wouldn't care about this little threat. However, he wasn't the World Honored One after all. At this moment, he instead hesitated to act rashly.
On the other side, in the center of the round light, Lu Yang also stood with his clothes flapping and his hands behind his back, his gaze falling straight onto Buddha Child Guang Ming... After all, just over ten years ago, he was similarly forced to the brink by the other party like this, almost killed on the spot by this Buddha Child.
Lu Yang still had a fresh impression of that scene.
However, he had long since changed his identity and had no karma with the Sword Dao Incarnation. Buddha Child Guang Ming couldn't recognize him and merely smiled at him:
"May I ask for Benefactor's name?"
Lu Yang grinned ferociously upon hearing this: "My surname is Lu, my given name is Daddy. Full name Lu Daddy. Seeing Fellow Daoist feels like meeting an old friend today, so you can call me Daddy directly."
Once these words came out, all sounds were silenced.
Clearly they were overseas, yet even the sea breeze stopped blowing and the seawater stopped surging, becoming flat as land. An invisible pressure filled heaven and earth.
Not far away, Xiang Ye and Hong Ju were completely stunned.
This is definitely a Saint Sect Perfected One... No, even among Saint Sect Perfected Ones, this one probably belongs to the mentally unstable category!
When did Lord Hong Yun become so arrogant...
Madman!
Looking at the world, who wasn't dissatisfied with the shameless act of the World Honored One personally stomping newbie? Yet up to now, who dared to truly curse out loud?
Let alone cursing right in front of Buddha Child Guang Ming, even in private, people dared not say the World Honored One was shameless. They could only use various euphemisms to sugarcoat it. After all, everyone knew the World Honored One was petty. If he sensed the insults and made things difficult for them, they would be done for.
Yet now, Lu Yang cursed.
And he opened his mouth by raising his seniority. describing it as "unafraid of death" was somewhat of an understatement; even a Perfected Lord might not dare to say this to Buddha Child Guang Ming!
What audacity!
What a crazy Daoist!
Did he not fear death?
"..."
At this moment, the smile on Buddha Child Guang Ming's face finally faded bit by bit. The Dharma Aspect behind him lowered its eyelids, staring straight at Lu Yang.
"Even if I dare to call you that, does Benefactor dare to accept it?"
As the voice fell, Lu Yang instantly felt an invisible great mountain smash onto his spine, seemingly trying to crush him into bending his waist.
Yet he laughed.
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
While speaking, Lu Yang not only didn't bend his waist but instead straightened his back, like a sharp sword soaring into the sky, staring at Buddha Child Guang Ming across the air..
The gaze from the Dharma Aspect was enough to make even a Great Perfected One at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment bow, and a Foundation Establishment Perfection would inevitably feel deep suppression.
However, for Lu Yang, this was somewhat childish.
[Sword Intent]!
Although it was just an embryo and not polished into shape like Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon's [No-Kill Sword], it was still more than enough to resist the pressure.
Still think you can handle me as easily as over ten years ago?
Today is not like yesterday!
Whoosh!
Lu Yang stood with his hands behind his back. The [One with the World] halo behind him bound deeper with heaven and earth, looking completely fearless and secure in his back.
Finally, Buddha Child Guang Ming spoke:
"Does Benefactor really think your divine ability is invincible?"
Before his voice fell, he had already put his palms together. The [Buddha Kingdom on Earth] behind him expanded abruptly, merging with the [Supreme Truth Enlightenment Tuoluo Heaven Manifestation].
Boom!
In an instant, the entire [Supreme Truth Enlightenment Tuoluo Heaven Manifestation] expanded. Within the [Buddha Kingdom on Earth] behind it, countless monks chanted in unison:
"My Buddha is merciful!"
"Namo Supreme Truth Enlightenment Tuoluo Heaven Manifestation Buddha!"
Amidst thousands of shouts, the Dharma Aspect slowly extended its arms—one became ten, ten became a hundred, a hundred became a thousand... In the blink of an eye, there were impressively forty-eight thousand arms!
In the center of each arm's palm grew a Dharma Eye.
And within each Dharma Eye reflected infinite imagery—temples, zen forests, pagodas... truly the supreme wondrous realm of Mahayana, the Blissful Buddha Kingdom of the Pure Land.
"Amitabha!"
The next second, the forty-eight thousand arms of that Dharma Aspect each formed a hand seals, formed mudras, and changed techniques. Then, a blast suddenly rang out from heaven and earth.
Crack!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yang's expression changed abruptly.
The round light originally suspended behind his head, the colorful illusion of [One with the World], also dimmed. The close connection with heaven and earth was actually cut off directly!
Sure enough...
Lu Yang's gaze was heavy, but he didn't panic. After all, [One with the World] was at its most powerful when he hadn't been exposed and was waiting for an opportunity.
Once exposed, naturally, flaws would be found.
After all, there was no unbreakable divine ability in the world, nor any perfect Dao technique.
Moreover, the person before him was the Buddha Child, the tool the World Honored One used for bullying newbie. by knowing the intelligence on [One with the World] in advance, breaking it wasn't unexpected.
If it were me who just returned, breaking this situation would require assuming a False Golden Core.
But now it's different...
With the full support of the True Dragon clan, Lu Yang had already refined a Blessed Land. With a qualitative change, facing Buddha Child Guang Ming was no longer a situation where he had no power to resist!
Just right... let's test the newly obtained Golden Talent!
Facing the heavy pressure from Buddha Child Guang Ming, Lu Yang flicked his sleeves and stood up. Brilliance similarly appeared at the center of his brow, reflecting many scenes of sun, moon, mountains, and rivers within the light.
[Xuandu Blessed Land]!
Whether one had a Blessed Land enhancement or not made a huge difference for a Foundation Establishment Perfection Great Perfected One, simply because only a Blessed Land allowed one to see the true face of things.
At this moment, with the enhancement of the [Xuandu Blessed Land], Lu Yang looked at Buddha Child Guang Ming before him again and was instantly horrified.
Stripped of the skin and flesh on the surface, where was there any trace of a human? It was clearly just an empty skin, with a golden light linking to the Dharma Aspect behind it.
No wonder the talk of the World Honored One seizing bodies was so deeply rooted in people's hearts.
No matter how the Pure Land "dispelled rumors," no one ever believed them.
After all, whether it was seizing a body or tampering with things, one look after refining a Blessed Land would reveal it. It simply couldn't deceive the world's immortal cultivators; ultimately, it was self-deception.
Suddenly.
Under layers of Buddhist light, the young Daoist extended his right hand, spreading his five fingers. The [Xuandu Blessed Land] in his palm forcibly propped open the surrounding Buddhist light!
In an instant, Buddha Child Guang Ming already sensed somethingwrong!
As thoughts spun rapidly, that majestic Dharma Aspect had already raised its palm and smashed down. Under the enhancement of [His Heart Connection], it intended to forcibly convert Lu Yang!
However, seeing this, Lu Yang had absolutely no intention of dodging.
The next second, his body was hit squarely by the Buddha palm. But almost simultaneously, a piece of flowing, colorful jade with seven orifices jumped out from the top of his head.
[Parting and Reuniting Jade Tablet]!
The mighty power contained in the Buddha palm was entirely transferred to this body-protecting treasure Lu Yang obtained from the Dragon Palace. Six of the stone's seven orifices closed instantly.
But Lu Yang was safe and sound!
At the same time, he didn't stop the action of holding up the Blessed Land with his hand.
[Uphold Heaven's Principles]!
The small world created by the divine ability coordinated with the [Xuandu Blessed Land] to counterattack, instantly encompassing Buddha Child Guang Ming within it. In a flash, thousands of sword edges were generated.
However, seeing these sword edges, Buddha Child Guang Ming frowned... because they weren't strong. Although enough to cause some damage to his Golden Body, that was all. It was like scraping off a layer of skin—not painful or itchy. He could recover easily with just half a day of rest.
However, just then.
As the imagery of being sliced by a thousand cuts was recreated by Lu Yang on Buddha Child Guang Ming's body, an invisible mighty power instantly derived from this intent!
[Dragon-Slicing Platform]!
[Dragon-Slicing Platform: This is a talent irrigated with fresh blood and hatred. It recreates the scene of the White Chi Dragon being divided and eaten in the past. It can fix the life and fortune of a single person.]
The Golden Talent extracted from the White Chi Dragon's Golden Nature!
This was the most unique of all talents Lu Yang had obtained so far... because it didn't have much functionality, but was a talent exclusively for killing!
Dragon-Slicing Platform. As long as I recreate the scene of the White Chi Dragon being sliced by a thousand cuts and divided for food by the various powers, I can resonate with life and fix the result of the White Chi Dragon's death onto the opponent's life. The more realistic and perfect the recreation, the more powerful the resonance result, and the harder it is to break free!
Splurt!
The next second, the dao technique that could originally only leave superficial wounds on Buddha Child Guang Ming's Golden Body actually tore directly through skin and flesh, seeping into his internal organs at this moment.
Unstoppable!
Under the resonance of life, Buddha Child Guang Ming had already been reduced to that "White Chi Dragon" being sliced by a thousand cuts. Just as despairing as the White Chi Dragon was back then, he was just as powerless now!
Boom!
In an instant, Buddha Child Guang Ming's Golden Body was completely torn apart. Under the thousand cuts, it directly turned into intense crimson light, dyeing half the sky red!
Such vivid crimson light falling on the [Buddha Kingdom on Earth] was like a flawless painting suddenly marred by a blunder. All imagery was instantly destroyed, reducing it to a mortal state, devoid of its sacredness, as it crashed from the heavens into the sea!
On the distant horizon, Xiang Ye and Hong Ju looked at each other, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.
The Pure Land Buddha Child actually lost?
This is definitely not Lord Hong Yun!
The next second, a beam of Buddhist light soared into the sky and vanished into the horizon instantly.
Witnessing this scene, Lu Yang narrowed his eyes instantly— It was actually an incarnation?
Makes sense. The [Dragon-Slicing Platform] wasn't perfectly utilized. Only an incarnation with a thin life could be killed by it in one blow. If the main body were here, he would likely be injured at most...
"Benefactor, we will meet again... But when that time comes, this poor monk will come in his true body."
Beside his ear, Buddha Child Guang Ming's voice rang out faintly.
Lu Yang grinned ferociously upon hearing this—
"Come on!!"
This time was just collecting some interest first. If you dare to come in with your true body, I dare to usea False Golden Position directly and beat you to death!
