Chapter 271 - 242: The Three Pure Ones Set a Trap to Kill Tathagata
Kong Xuan suffered a palm strike from Zhen Yuanzi and fell to the ground, dazed and in intense pain.
Yin Xi saw his opportunity, threw out the Tai Chi Diagram, and aimed to directly capture Kong Xuan.
However, just when Kong Xuan, Buddha of Immeasurable Life, and Buddha of Immeasurable Light seemed on the verge of being captured, a gigantic hand descended from the void, tightly grasped the Tai Chi Diagram, and with a fierce squeeze, a muffled "bang" was heard as the Diagram exploded. The two Buddhas of Immeasurable Life and Immeasurable Light tumbled out, their bodies covered in blood. Clearly, they suffered greatly within the Tai Chi Diagram, nearly dissolved into blood water. This was the effect of the Taoist Arts simulating the Tai Chi Diagram and the Purple Gold Calabash; had they been there for two more hours, the Golden Bodies of these two Buddha ancestors would likely have been destroyed.
"Acala, World Honored One!" Kong Xuan saw the newcomer, hurriedly pressed his palms together, and bowed in salute.
This was none other than Acala, the Vidyaraja who leads all others, transformed from the wrath of Buddha Ancestor. With Buddhist sect known for compassion, the Respectful Ruler of the World, Tathagata, wouldn’t usually act. The task of defending the Dharma naturally fell to Acala, who commands all Vidyarajas and protects Buddhism with his formidable strength.
Another huge hand reached out from the void, heading straight for the house where Tang Sanzang and his companions were, intent on taking them away directly.
"The audacity!" Zhen Yuanzi roared furiously, and with that, the Book of Earth flew out, managing to block the enormous hand.
Yin Xi was also shocked; this Acala was indeed formidable, crushing his Tai Chi Diagram with such ease! His methods were simply terrifying.
The second attacker was Tathagata. If he allowed Kong Xuan, Buddha of Immeasurable Life, and Buddha of Immeasurable Light to be captured, not only would the Buddhist sect’s face be greatly damaged, but it would also be a crippling blow, as these three were extraordinary masters. Although there were three thousand Buddhas in Buddhism, not every one of them was so capable in battle.
The Book of Earth blocked Tathagata’s palm. Rarely had anyone seen Tathagata take action, except for that time he played a game with Wukong in the Heavenly Court, challenging him to leap out of his Buddha Land in Palm. A magic combat with others, however, was unheard of.
