Chapter 370 - 311: Cut Through Deception to Vanquish Tathagata_2
The Three Pure had resisted action because their physical bodies suffered major damages in the Middle Ancient Times, and Tathagata held considerable power. But now, the great powers of Ancient Times had all emerged and shattered Tathagata’s Great Array. Inside, Wukong was stealing Tathagata’s destiny. With no further concerns, they suddenly deployed their Magical Treasures, aiming to completely destroy Tathagata’s foundation.
The Projections of the Heavens franticly appeared, attempting to rescue Tathagata, but the Nine Heavens were not idle. They also detonated countless projections hidden in the Otherworld, with their true bodies continuously capturing and using Divine Skills to slay each Projection of the Heavens! The Heavenly Dao Laws roared, as if they might collapse at any moment, and the aura of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man thickened, ready to fully descend and unleash a cosmic calamity.
Tathagata integrated Five Great Wisdom Kings and Mahavairocana completely, bellowed furiously, and heavily suppressed Wukong with a gigantic palm that covered the sky and blocked out the sun!
"Excellent! Tathagata, by suppressing me and Amitabha, you have sown the seeds of malice, and now it is time for you to reap the consequences." Zhunti, holding the Seven Treasure Wonderful Tree, swept it out and instantly shattered Tathagata’s giant palm into dust.
Kong Xuan seized an opportunity and unleashed a Five-Colored Divine Light, capturing a large mass of destiny from Tathagata and injecting it into Wukong’s body, where it was absorbed by the Mixed Yuan Seed.
All Three Thousand Buddhas were encircled by the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation. Water, fire, wind, and thunder activated together, Chaotic Sword Qi burst forth, and the Buddhas turned one by one into dust amid screams. Under the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, the Buddhas also obscured cause and effect, their spirits deteriorating, losing their enlightened states—after all, this is the foremost lethal weapon under the Heavenly Dao!
"I also wish to partake! Tathagata, you and I also share a great karmic connection, and now I shall use your destiny to repay it!" The towering Blood Sea descended, and Ming River appeared. With a single thrust, he pierced through Tathagata’s zenith-like destiny, grasped it, and seized innumerable destinies, enhancing his mana vastly.
Ming River had held back for a long time, only acting at this critical moment! He was also a man of the Four Great Continents, these lands being his homeland, naturally not allowing the Otherworld to devour them. To transcend, they too must devour the Otherworld and transcend!
Wukong’s Fate-Stealing Whip was even more potent at extracting destiny; with a single sweep, it drew in rivers of destiny like the Yangtze and Yellow River, dimming the radiant destiny drastically.
"So it turns out Daoist Equal to Heaven and the Loose Cultivators from Yingzhou seeking the Enlightenment Dao were your avatars! I have been tricked! Three Pure, indeed you are cunning!" Tathagata roared, fighting fiercely like a cornered beast—after all, it was he who ignited his Primordial Spirit, bursting forth with power that could contend against a Saint, determined to kill Wukong.
Because inside Wukong’s body was the Mixed Yuan Seed which had absorbed his destiny, there was a significant chance it would prove the Primordial Great Way! He could not allow another Saint to emerge among the Four Great Continents, as the combat power of a Saint was truly terrifying. Many Semi-Saints would be of no use, unless one arranged a formation or used some Secret Technique to forcibly enhance one’s combat power.
Undeterred, Wukong continued to steal Tathagata’s destiny. Now Tathagata was like a wall collapsing and everyone pushing, even Ming River had come forth.
