282: Chapter 186: Struggle for the Lord of the Buddhist Realm_6 282: Chapter 186: Struggle for the Lord of the Buddhist Realm_6 Mount Ling was not to be underestimated and would not be easily destroyed.
Once Tathagata fled, the threat to the Ziwei Heavenly Court would only be greater.
That’s why he dared to fight this battle.
If they could suppress both Sun Wukong and Master Erlang, this battle would be considered settled.
Tathagata had a good strategy, and he was quite confident in his own strength.
Sun Wukong and Master Erlang exchanged glances, and they also understood Tathagata’s intentions.
This battle had now become inevitable.
The two naturally would not let Amitabha Buddha join the fight, two against one was no problem, but if Amitabha Buddha was added, even winning would be disgraceful.
What Tathagata had said was clearly a cheap shot.
With his intelligence, how could he not guess that Sun Wukong and the others would not let Amitabha Buddha make a move?
“Tathagata, do you really think we need three people to join hands against you?
Master Erlang and I are enough.”
Sun Wukong sneered, signaling Master Erlang to start the fight, too impatient to waste words with Tathagata.
Yang Jian was also straightforward, immediately slashing with his Three-pointed Double-edged Sword.
The tremendous mana surged, causing the Heavenly Venerates of the Buddhist Sect to pale.
Although they too were Heavenly Venerates, the gap in strength between them and Master Erlang was just too vast; they were on completely different levels.
Sun Wukong laughed heartily, from another direction, he smashed his staff.
Together, the two of them could even combat the Great Emperor Gou Chen.
Now, both of their strengths had improved and become even stronger.
Even if Tathagata’s mana was stronger than that of Great Emperor Gou Chen, they were still confident.
Tathagata softly chanted, and Buddha’s Light burst forth from his hand, blocking their combined strike.
But he himself also retreated, his Buddha’s Golden Body trembling slightly.
Buddha’s Light flickered, and a golden bowl appeared, heading to cover Sun Wukong.
Seeing the golden bowl, Sun Wukong’s eyes turned red.
Back when he and Six-Eared Macaque fought their way to Mount Ling, Tathagata had used this very golden bowl to capture and suppress him.
Now that Tathagata had taken out the golden bowl again, intending to suppress Sun Wukong, it was naturally impossible.
After all, Sun Wukong had not only recovered to his peak strength but had also made a breakthrough, stepping into the realm of Heavenly Venerate.
The purpose of Tathagata doing this was merely to disgust Sun Wukong.
Without a word, Sun Wukong swung his Jingu Bang directly at the golden bowl.
With a clang, the golden bowl was knocked flying, controlled once again by Tathagata in his hands.
The next moment, Tathagata pulled out a Demon-Subduing Staff, blocking Master Erlang’s attack.
He smiled lightly, and thousands of lotuses emerged, surrounding the two of them.
The beautifully shimmering lotuses, yet possessing immense power, actually attempted to bind both Sun Wukong and Yang Jian there.
“Break!”
Yang Jian’s Vertical Eye on his forehead opened, unleashing terrifying Immortal Light that shattered the lotuses.
Sun Wukong also roared, beams of golden light shooting from his eyes, shattering the lotuses in front.
They moved closer to Tathagata, brandishing their sword and staff, charging at Tathagata.
Their attacks fell, but in an instant, Tathagata’s form disappeared and reappeared in another direction.
Sun Wukong and Yang Jian exchanged a glance, their hearts somewhat solemn.
Tathagata was not to be underestimated; his methods were astonishing, truly making him the foremost figure in the Buddhist Realm.
Amitabha Buddha was also observing Tathagata’s tactics, and soon he reached a conclusion in his heart.
If he were to duel Tathagata, within a thousand moves, they would be evenly matched.
But after a thousand moves, he would start to fall into a disadvantage.
Within ten thousand moves, Tathagata could subdue and suppress him.
Of course, if Tathagata wanted to kill him, it naturally wouldn’t be so easy.
He possessed an Immortal Root, known as one of the six truly immortal beings between heaven and earth.
Trying to kill him was almost an impossible feat.
As for why Kunpeng had died, the answer was simple: he hadn’t truly assimilated the Primordial Demonic Qi and was instead demonized by it.
Only those who truly control the Immortal Root can achieve a certain degree of immortality.
As for being controlled by the Immortal Root, that was a certain death.
This was also why, even if they possessed the Immortal Root, many powerful beings wouldn’t attempt to assimilate it.
Kunpeng’s fate was one such example.
Sun Wukong and Master Erlang pursued, sealing heaven and earth, forcing Tathagata to clash with them.
Tathagata also saw the intentions of the two, standing up from the Nine-Colored Lotus Platform, a Demon-Subduing Staff appearing in his hand glowing with Buddha’s Light, possessing tremendous might, and actually engaged in close combat with the two.
Every one of Sun Wukong and Master Erlang’s attacks were blocked by him.
But if he attacked once, both Sun Wukong and Master Erlang were in a sorry state, barely managing to hold him off.
Sun Wukong and Master Erlang exchanged a look, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
The power of Tathagata was terrifying indeed.
“This old coin has improved considerably over thousands of years; otherwise, we wouldn’t be unable to take him down,” Sun Wukong communicated telepathically.
“Great Saint, we can’t even hurt him now, what should we do?” Master Erlang asked, becoming anxious.
Facing an enemy that couldn’t be taken down, even if he was the War God, his heart could not remain calm and would be disturbed.
Sun Wukong was somewhat troubled, also not expecting Tathagata to be so formidable.
He furrowed his brows and said, “Don’t worry, just fight normally; Old Sun will trade life for life with him.
I don’t believe we can’t bring him down.”
Sun Wukong said through gritted teeth.
He was an Undying Body, supplemented by Primordial Demonic Qi, thus he had this courage.
Yang Jian’s face changed; he wanted to tell Sun Wukong not to be so impulsive, as it was completely not worth it.
Sun Wukong naturally knew his thoughts, laughing he said, “Don’t worry, Old Sun has completely subdued the Primordial Demonic Qi.
With this kind of Immortal Root, Old Sun can truly be said to be an Undying Body.
If he trades life with me, the one who will die is definitely himself.”
Yang Jian’s eyes widened.
Sun Wukong had subdued the Immortal Root?
No wonder he was bold enough to trade life for life with Tathagata.
With himself helping on the side, and with Sun Wukong trading life for life, Tathagata was destined to be at a disadvantage today.
Thinking this, Yang Jian’s breathing quickened, quite excited.
Everyone noticed that Sun Wukong’s style of fighting had changed.
Before he still had some tactics, but now, Sun Wukong fought like a madman, completely using a life-for-life strategy.
Even if Tathagata struck him, he would still bite off a chunk of flesh from Tathagata’s body.
This way of fighting suddenly shocked everyone.
