Chapter 238 - 230: The Great Momentum of the Western Heaven Buddhist Sect Ends
Tathagata pretended to be weak to deceive the enemy and injured Wukong, while the Victorious Fighting Buddha took over the Pharmacist Buddha, allowing Yuan Hong and others to assist Wukong in dealing with Tathagata.
Yuan Hong shouted loudly and struck with his staff, forcing Tathagata to retreat, and said, "Wukong, you heal your injuries first, we’ll handle this guy!"
Zhu Rong and Gonggong both made their moves, each casting spells to attack Tathagata.
Taoist of Many Treasures saw the opportunity and charged ahead to kill Tathagata, which would be extremely beneficial for him. All of Tathagata’s mana would transfer into his body, and since Tathagata could not ascend to the Deification Platform, his death would mean eternal obliteration. In this world, there would be no more Tathagata, only Taoist of Many Treasures.
Naturally, Tathagata was aware of this, so he did not dare to hold back at all, and he made his moves with full force whenever he did.
Both Wukong and Supreme Holy Mother were severely wounded by Tathagata, and were currently sitting in mid-air to heal their injuries. Wukong manifested the Heaven-Defying Taoist, who surveyed the surroundings to prevent any sneak attacks. Although Heaven-Defying Taoist was also injured and could not exert full strength, he could still provide a warning, being cautious couldn’t hurt.
Without any magical treasures to restrain it, Tathagata’s Turning Wheel Sage King Great Seal turned wildly tumultuous like overturning seas and rivers. Despite the attacks by four Primordial Golden Immortal level masters, they achieved no effect. Instead, Tathagata gained the upper hand everywhere. This greatly agitated Tathagata, as this was the best moment to kill Wukong. If he gave Wukong any chance to recover, it wouldn’t be so easy. Killing Wukong would naturally lead to the collapse of the Demon Tribe. With the death of the Green Emperor, the tribespeople of the Demon Tribe would suffer greatly.
With the Elixir Pills from the Tong Tian Sect Master in his possession, Wukong, upon consumption, doubled the effects of his healing efforts. If he had the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Immortal Pill from the Ancient One, complete recovery would have taken but an instant.
Elsewhere, the Victorious Fighting Buddha and the Glazed Light King Pharmacist Buddha fought intensely. Being an Immortal Body, the Pharmacist Buddha could instantly regenerate even after being shattered, as long as over one thousand Yakshas chanted in unison. However, not all his Yakshas were intact; several hundred perished in the battle at Mount Putuo. Had the two thousand Yakshas been complete, the Pharmacist Buddha’s combat power would have been considerably higher!
