Chapter 632: Chapter 409: Thundering Buddha Flame, the humble monk gladly accepts

The next moment, a figure of majestic appearance, wearing clean robes untainted by filth, descended as a Bodhisattva.

The figure stepped onto the ground and took seven steps, unaided, looking in all directions, and proclaimed with a gesture:

"Heaven and earth, only I am honored, I want to save all living beings from birth, aging, sickness, and death."

As the words fell.

Instantly two springs emerged, one warm and one cold, for bathing purposes.

This scene caused the entirety of Yinping City to erupt into frenzy.

Hundreds of thousands of people, as if mad, all showed expressions of frenzied insanity.

Some couldn’t even control themselves, starting to cheer and cry, shouting:

"A miracle! No, this is Buddha showing himself."

"The Bodhisattva is born, identical to what the scriptures described, the Great Compassionate and Merciful Transcendent Bodhisattva."

"It is us, our devout scripture reading, sincere prayers, finally moved the Bodhisattva to pity us and descend from the Ultimate Happiness Heaven to the mortal realm."

"The Bodhisattva has descended to save us."

"We waited, all will ascend to the Ultimate Happiness Land, all will be free from catastrophes and suffering, forever enjoying ultimate bliss."

...

This sight, however, reminded Tao Qian again of Changle Town after its fall to demons.

Then and now, there was no difference.

But no wonder the suffering mortals within Yinping City couldn’t resist; they were already poisoned by the Demon Buddha, with no ability to resist.

Now seeing a miracle recorded only in the Buddhist scriptures, how could they not be moved? ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

Hundreds of thousands of people had the same thought at this moment: they wanted the Bodhisattva to transcend them, to let them enter the Western Pure Land and forever escape the suffering of this earthly realm.

With such hopes, it was natural for them to endure being in the midst of mire and filth.

However, could they have known?

Transcendence might be realistic, but how could ultimate happiness be attained?

The mortals saw it as a miracle, but in Tao Qian’s eyes.

The so-called "Bodhisattva" was merely a cold, fierce object devoid of any emotions, merely cloaked in a veneer of great compassion and mercy.

This Bodhisattva, step by step, approached tens of thousands of city dwellers.

Underneath the witness of thousands of Buddhas, behind it emerged a scene like a peacock fanning its feathers, thousands of Buddha hands reaching out and stroke everyone’s heads.

Before even touching, hundreds of thousands of people’s faces showed expressions of ecstasy and joy.

Within their bodies, souls, life spans, and essence blood all showed signs of eagerness to escape.

Especially the souls, almost half an inch away from leaving the body.

Seeing this sight!

Tao Qian immediately realized, the time had come.

"Indeed, the souls of hundreds of thousands of devotees are the final cause, Wisdom Mother."

"Once devoured by this Great Transcendence Bodhisattva, this inconceivable Buddha treasure will be forged, and within Yinping City, there will be hundreds of thousands of fools."

"It seems there are no other choices, although this will provoke the Demon Buddha Temple, now that I’m disguised as a disciple of Qingjing Zen Master, coming from the South Sea as the Wu Gou Buddha Son, in the eyes of those bald monks from the Demon Buddha Temple, I’m just a bumpkin trying to snatch a meal."

"To hell with it! How can two Venerables of the Cavernous Mystery Profound demon monks trouble me?"

Once the decision was made, Tao Qian immediately took action.

First, he mixed the True Word Secret Decree with the Lion Roar, using the overlay of divine powers to stop the evil acts of the Great Transcendence Bodhisattva.

"Hold on!"

"Stop!"

Just as Tao Qian shouted, unexpectedly another mishap occurred.

He shouted from the south, and suddenly heard a furious shout from the north.

The voice, like thunder, intimidated all directions, causing all beasts to cower, also using the Buddhist Divine Power [Lion Roar].

The Great Transcendence Bodhisattva, still incomplete with the Wisdom Mother occupying it, was delayed in its actions and was instantly paralyzed by the remote divine power restraint of two strong individuals, seemingly stuck in place.

While outside Yinping City, the two Venerables looked toward the north and south.

First looking at the southern direction, the dirty, dark Yellow Cloud Mountain that had been there for many years suddenly burst open a huge gap by ten thousand feet of Buddha Light. The void birthed thousands of lotuses and Divine Light turned into colorful clouds, and under the golden light phenomenon at the cloud peak, the Wu Gou Buddha Son, played by Tao Master, leading the Miao Yin Bodhisattva, played by Yunrong, descended majestically.

Then looking at the northern direction, no phenomenon occurred, just seeing a young monk wearing a Hundred-Patch Zen Robe, ordinary looking, even slightly ugly, with a strange lump on his forehead, coming over mountains and seas.

Although there was no special vision, including Tao Qian, everyone instantly recognized the young monk’s roots and origin.

It was naturally because of the escape skill he used, appearing instantly upon recitation.

His voice hadn’t yet fallen, but he had already first stepped into Yinping City.

Such an escape method was self-explanatory.

"Great Freedom Heart Light Escape!"

"How did a Free Buddha Son suddenly appear?"

At the moment of Tao Qian’s bewilderment,

In the city, they were already exchanging blows.

Hundreds of demon monks were not blind, they could tell that the Great Freedom Monk who appeared out of nowhere must have come for the "Great Transcendent Bodhisattva" Buddha Treasure.

They all shouted angrily and rushed to surround and kill the monk.

Sadly, there was a huge gap between the two sides.

The young monk, disregarding everything, charged forward, and declared, "Fellow Demon Buddha Daoists, if you do not wish to be obliterated instantly, do not touch my Dharma Body."

Though the monk said this, the hundreds of demon monks thought he was boasting.

But the next moment, bunches of green Buddha Flames suddenly burst forth from the monk’s body, seemingly with thundering sounds within them.

Each demon monk that came into contact with him immediately let out a miserable howl,

And their bodies were immediately burnt from the outside in, their flesh, spirit, and even souls were thoroughly incinerated.

In an instant, they turned into vitrified forms, falling seated, and passed into oblivion on the spot.

With just that one collision, over a hundred demon monks from the Demon Buddha Temple perished.

Had the remaining demon monks not reacted quickly, they would all have met their demise right there.

This spectacle instantly intimidated everyone present, even Tao Qian couldn’t help but reveal a look of shock.

In his arms, Master Yuan immediately transmitted through a voice message:

"It’s the ’Great Freedom Thunder Sound Buddha Flame,’ within the Great Freedom Temple itself, this is extremely rare. Cultivating such Divine Power is equivalent to you, lad, obtaining the Transmission of the Scripture of Salvation in the Spirit Treasure Sect."

"This little monk is quite fierce, surely one of the top talents among the current generation Buddha’s sons of the Great Freedom Temple."

"Ha-ha-ha, you lad have finally met your match, hurry and go forth to encounter him."

Master Yuan recognized that Divine Power.

The two venerables of the Demon Buddha Temple, of course, recognized it as well.

Because the young monk and Tao Qian appeared simultaneously, it was clear they came to cause trouble and to seize the treasure.

Thus, Hei Bo Venerable and Flower Staff Venerable each moved to intercept from south and north.

In the views of these two men, they could easily subdue these two little Buddha thieves.

But the extremely harsh reality took place almost simultaneously:

First, meeting the Great Freedom Monk, the Flower Staff Venerable initially planned to confront the monk with his Demon Buddha Vajra Body in a head-on collision.

Yet, as soon as he saw the Great Freedom Thunder Sound Buddha Flame emerging from his opponent, he was immediately shocked and retreated.

He then threw his Buddha Staff, which instantly expanded and transformed into a pillar to strike at the young monk’s head dome.

But the monk merely raised his hand to protect his head and continued to plow forward aggressively.

With a heavy "thud", the Flower Staff Venerable’s wooden staff, which was also clearly a powerful Buddha Treasure, was forcefully repelled. To avoid the same fate as his disciples, although feeling immensely frustrated, the Flower Staff Venerable had no choice but to clear the way.

However, at the last moment, he managed to cast a spell, flicking his sleeve robe and throwing the trapped Great Compassionate and Merciful Transcendent Bodhisattva toward Hei Bo Venerable outside the city.

While casting, he thought to himself,

"This ugly monk from the Great Freedom Temple is a powerful Buddha’s son with a plain exterior but an extremely fierce combat strength, having even cultivated the supreme Demon-suppressing Divine Power like the Thunder Sound Buddha Flame."

"As for that pretentious white-robed monk, he must be a foil, surely subduable by Hei Bo."

The thought had just settled in his mind when,

His eyes captured a scene that no one could have imagined:

That Hei Bo Venerable, he didn’t even have time to release any Divine Power.

As he met the couple who approached upon a cloud top radiating Golden Light, exhibiting the elegant young Miao Monk who walked barefoot, untainted by dust, he suddenly pulled out a worn cloth bag hanging from his waist.

He spoke aloud, "This Venerable seems spiritually exhausted, why not rest a while inside this humble monk’s People Species Bag."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the cloth bag was tossed up and expanded in the wind.

It generated a forceful suction and instantly swallowed the Hei Bo Venerable.

Right then, the Flower Staff Venerable threw out the "Great Compassionate and Merciful Transcendent Bodhisattva" from the city.

Seeing one Venerable being captured, Tao Qian couldn’t help but reveal a brilliant smile.

He uttered a Buddhist chant, saying,

"Amitabha!"

"People always say that the brothers of the Demon Buddha Temple are very generous, which I did not believe, but now it seems to be true."

"This treasure certainly bears some mysteries; this monk is also keenly curious. Since the Venerable has been so hospitable, how could this monk decline?"

"Accepting it with gratitude."

Thus saying, he waved his hand and captured the Bodhisattva treasure.

Without further inspection, he too stuffed it into the worn cloth bag and then with an air as if nothing significant had happened, he cast a somewhat curious glance at that ugly monk from the Great Freedom Temple.
