Chapter 263 - 252: Slaying the Tathagata to Become a Saint
Wukong entered the Chaotic World and found the shattered Heaven and Earth where Tathagata resided, unleashing a great battle.
Tathagata had cut off his notions of good and evil, and only needed to sever his obsessions to reach the realm of a Heavenly Dao Saint, but Wukong’s arrival was timely, as Tathagata had not yet managed to cut them off. Now he had some clues, and given a few more years, he might truly be able to sever his obsessions, rid himself of the three corpse spirits, and greatly increase his Mana.
Wukong held the Giant Axe, with sickles revolving around him, his approach ferocious and unstoppable, full of strong revolutionary resolve.
However, Tathagata was certainly no pushover; though he only managed to temporarily summon the Turning Wheel Sage King, he had inherited some of the Sage King’s legacy, such as condensing the All Living Beings Aspect and capturing the will of all beings, his combat power was only higher than before!
"Boom!"
Wukong swung down his axe, and Heaven and Earth trembled, Chaos overturned, as if Pangu had been resurrected.
Tathagata responded with a Demon-Subduing Pestle, and upon contact, was sent flying, spilling golden Buddha’s Blood, wounded.
Tathagata said, "The Great Revolution Seal is truly extraordinary, to possess such power after a successful revolution of the world!"
Tathagata took a deep breath, raising a large bell, a bell from the pinnacle of Spiritual Mount, rung daily by many, laden with immeasurable Eight Treasures Merit and Incense Willpower, extremely powerful. Tathagata had meant to place his remaining obsessions into this bell, delaying its use. Now, cornered and with no way out, he could no longer care about preserving it, even if it shattered.
Wukong shouted, "Tathagata, meet your death!"
The axe fell, trailing a dazzling cold light that blinded onlookers.
