Chapter 271 - 253: The Chaotic Demon Tathagata and the Black Lotus Takes Root_2
"Amitabha, well said, well said." Tathagata, the Buddha, murmured a Buddhist chant, "This is an internal affair of the Asura Realm. What does it have to do with the ancient Buddhas?"
"If that’s the case, then I’m relieved." Ran Deng sighed, his face showing a hint of shame, "It is I who almost led the demon into the pure land of the Buddha Sect, thus I have come to confess my sin to the World-Honored One."
"A demon?" Tathagata, the Buddha, frowned.
"Before I came here, I made some inquiries," explained Ran Deng, "and found out that Ancestor Ming He, before slaying Youyu, revealed that Youyu was the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou."
"Luo Hou?" The Buddha’s expression changed drastically.
Boom!
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered over the Great Snow Mountain, thunder roaring, the myriad auspicious signs of this Holy Land of Buddhism all dissipating.
At the same time, a reflection slowly surfaced in the stream beside Tathagata, the Buddha.
The reflection was identical to Tathagata, the Buddha, with a calm smile on its face, quietly looking at him.
Soon, many wrinkles appeared on the face of the reflection, the corners of its mouth drooped, and it aged rapidly, turning into an old man, and then into a skeleton.
