I started with Dragon Elephant Prajna, and I pushed forward with my skill points.

Chapter 137 The Six-Character Mantra Emerges, Bodhi Patriarch is Stunned, Golden Cicada Gains Fortune, Forty-Nine Battle Sword Pierces Through Time and Space
As mentioned earlier, when the Buddha was preaching, Jin Chanzi had doubts about the Buddha's teachings and raised questions, which angered the Buddha.

Let him go into seclusion and reflect on his mistakes.

Jin Chanzi did not realize that he had made a mistake, and left Mount Ling.

He had a good relationship with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

After leaving Mount Ling, Jin Chanzi decided to seek out Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva for a talk.

However, when they arrived in the underworld, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was not there.

Fortunately, the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha of the Six Paths of Rebirth is still here.

We learn from the benevolent corpse that the true form of Ksitigarbha is in the Heavenly Court, in Nezha's Cloud Tower Palace.

So Jin Chanzi went to the Heavenly Court.

Seeing how respectful Wuyunxian, Ksitigarbha, Nezha, and Yang Jian were to Su Qing, he vaguely understood that Su Qing was the key to all the turmoil.

Jin Chanzi was somewhat conflicted.

As a Buddhist practitioner, he should inform his master of everything.

But he also knows Ksitigarbha very well.

A person who commands such respect from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva must not be a bad person.

Just as he was struggling with his decision, a gaze fell upon him: "Jin Chanzi?"
Here's a copy of Journey to the West: The Legend of the Monkey King. Take a look when you have some free time!

Logically speaking, a simple Journey to the West shouldn't contain anything that would move Jin Chanzi.

However, Su Qing had already deduced that Jin Chanzi and the scorpion demon of the Pipa Cave in Poisonous Enemy Mountain actually had feelings for each other.

Is there a connection between Jin Chanzi and the Scorpion Demon?

If he were to be reincarnated as Tang Sanzang, and the Buddhist monks did not protect the Scorpion Demon but instead allowed her to be killed, then there would be a problem.

Then, recalling that after Jin Chanzi fell into the water at Lingyun Ferry, a floating corpse appeared.

Most people believe that the one who drowned was actually the Tang Monk of this life, and the one who became a Buddha was only the Jin Chanzi of his previous life.

The story of Tang Sanzang enduring countless hardships only to benefit others suggests the Buddhist sect's exploitation of mortals.

However, they learned of the scorpion demon's death.

Who exactly died at Lingyun Ferry?
We need to reconsider.

In the end, Su Qing became certain that the floating corpse was Jin Chanzi.

Only by using this method could the obedient Tang Sanzang steal the cicada's body and retain the Cicada's Escape Technique.

Su Qing told Jin Chanzi everything.

This led to Jin Chanzi using the Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell technique to summon Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to his side.

All that has been said was just a fleeting moment.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has never been one to nag or complain.

He had already made his move when the Buddha rebuked Jin Chanzi.

"bury!"

He threw a single punch, and instantly a vast projection of a tomb appeared in the void.

The overwhelming aura of the ancient tomb poured down.

The attacks formed from the aura of those great tombs transformed into divine tablets and fell like raindrops.

The Divine Stele Palm and the Great Tomb Divine Skill are a perfect match.

Every attack is a monument to the gods, erecting a monument for people.

Erecting a monument will naturally bury those people as well.

With a single blow, nearly a hundred Buddhas were reduced to ashes.

The formation is a very strict thing. The death of more than a hundred Buddhists is like a precision instrument missing more than a hundred screws. The resonance that they had previously perfectly integrated was also broken.

Naturally, the illusory figure of the guide who had been drawn in also vanished in an instant.

Just now, all the Buddhas exerted their full power to draw out the illusory image of the Guide.

Now that the guides have suddenly dispersed, the magical power they were frantically channeling has reversed.

Going against the current means backlash, and many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas looked quite displeased.

Their breathing was unsteady and their bodies ached, but they didn't care about any of that.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva killed nearly a hundred Buddhas with a single strike.

Those Buddhas who were very close to Ksitigarbha felt that they would be killed in the next instant.

At that moment, they had only one thought: to escape as quickly as possible and get out of this vortex of right and wrong.

However, although they escaped quickly, there were other Buddhist masters surrounding them.

And so the most devastating collision occurred.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

When Bodhi Patriarch and the Ancient Buddha of Assistance saw Jin Chanzi use the Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell technique, they realized the troublesome situation and immediately descended to earth.

Before they even got close to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage Formation, a figure appeared in front of them.

This man sat atop a thousand-petaled blood lotus that covered a hundred acres, his beard flowing and his white robe billowing.
The moment it appeared, the world was enveloped in an endless crimson aura.

From a distance, it looked as if a giant blood cocoon was floating between heaven and earth.

"You treacherous dog from the Styx River, how dare you stop me?"

The gloom and murderous intent in Bodhi Patriarch's words are self-evident.

"There's no need to stop you!"

Someone will stand in your way; they harbor a deep-seated hatred for you and are eager to tear you to pieces and devour you alive.

As for me, all I need to do is keep an eye on the Ancient Buddha who guides us.”

With that, the Styx Ancestor turned his gaze to the Ancient Buddha of Guidance: "Please enlighten me, Senior Brother Guidance!"

As he spoke, a hole appeared in the blood cocoon formed by his pure blood evil, from which two pale green rays of light shot out.

Suddenly, everything turned deathly pale, then green, and a deep chill filled the air. The swords Yuan Tu and A Bi clashed, making a series of hissing sounds.

The golden light that enveloped the ancient Buddha of Amitabha Buddha pierced through several large holes.

Bodhi Patriarch was taken aback.

Is someone looking for revenge against me?

Who?
As he was pondering, a figure appeared before Patriarch Bodhi.

Who?
"Wu Yunxian, it's you?"

When Bodhi Patriarch saw that the one blocking his way was Wuyun Xian, he was taken aback.

Then he shook his head: "You're like a frog in a well, unaware of the vastness of the sky. Your methods are like a moth drawn to a flame before me. You dare to stop me and want to pay the price?"

It's just wishful thinking!

As he spoke, the Seven Treasures Tree appeared in his hand, and he swung it towards Wuyun Xian in front of him.

"Om! Mani! Padme! Hum!"

Faced with the fatal blow, six syllables suddenly resonated from Wu Yunxian's body. He vanished from the Five Elements and jumped out of the real world. The ancient Buddha turned into the void, a strange state of being both existent and nonexistent.

The attack from the Seven Treasures Tree missed its target.

"These are Buddhist and Taoist proverbs!"

Patriarch Bodhi was startled and spoke slowly and deliberately.

Although he had never seen the six-syllable mantra, he vaguely understood its profound meaning.

The ancient aura contained in these six words left Patriarch Bodhi bewildered.

How could Wu Yunxian possibly control such a mantra that even he couldn't master?

Soon, Bodhi Patriarch recalled that not long ago, when Wuyun Xian established his sect, he had proclaimed that he had inherited the mantle of the Buddha of Freedom, transformed into Amitabha Buddha, and established Buddhism.

"Could it be that the so-called Buddha of Worldly Freedom is not a fake?"

The following sentence indirectly confirmed Bodhi Daoren's guess.

"First came creation, then heaven. I existed before creation, and I was born no more than eighteen years old. One chaotic period is one year!"

As the sound rang out, a phantom appeared behind Wu Yunxian.

This illusory figure, dressed in golden robes and barefoot, was a young monk with lifeless eyes, seemingly blind, yet also seemingly seeing through everything. He had eyes but no eyes, and he sang a clear and melodious song as he looked at the Bodhi Patriarch!

ancient!
This was Bodhi Patriarch's first impression.

Then my mind wavered.

A period of chaos is equivalent to the creation of heaven and earth, a calamity of rebirth for the universe. It is an immeasurable calamity that occurred in the primordial world, when he was only one year old.

Wouldn't that mean going through eighteen immeasurable kalpas?

Not only is it ancient, but its form is also extraordinary.

His bare feet represent freedom and eternity, the perfect state of the Great Luo, without flaw or impurity, free from calamity or tribulation.

A young monk in golden robes, barefoot and walking freely, appeared behind Wu Yunxian, completely covering Wu Yunxian's tall figure. This time, Wu Yunxian's image seemed to merge with that of the young monk.

For a time, Wuyun Xian was known as the "King of Freedom in the World".

"The Buddha of Freedom in the World" is Wuyun Xian.

In an instant, the entire Immortal Realm was plunged into extreme turmoil.

It should be noted that in the widespread understanding of the Earthly Immortals, Buddhism is the product of the Daoist Jieyin and the Daoist Zhunti.

Now, a being has emerged who is clearly comparable to two saints, and seems to be even more ancient.

This is this...

The appearance of the World-Free King Buddha has already shaken all the cultivators in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

However, the changes that are happening today continue.

Who will be affected by the new changes?
It is said that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva would turn more than a hundred Buddhas into dust at the drop of a hat.

Kong Xuan, whose fate was intertwined with that of Buddhism, naturally could not sit idly by.

As Bodhi Patriarch and the Ancient Buddha of Assistance descended, his figure also appeared.

Unlike the Buddha of Guidance and the Bodhi Path Master, who were blocked by others, no one blocked him.

However, Kong Xuan, upon arriving here, did not immediately engage in combat with Ksitigarbha.

After all, there were too many Buddhist monks around.

Kong Xuan had already witnessed the battle between Ksitigarbha and Bodhi, and Ksitigarbha's strength was definitely enough; he was not weak among the top ten quasi-saints.

Once he and Ksitigarbha unleash their full power in battle, the sheer ripples generated by their fight alone would crush countless Buddhist cultivators into a bloody mess, even annihilating their true spirits.

So, the moment he arrived, he continuously showered down five-colored divine light.

Each time the five-colored divine light descends, a large number of Buddhas or Bodhisattvas are swept away by it.

After Kong Xuan rescued most of the Buddhas, he planned to join forces with the Tathagata Buddha to suppress Ksitigarbha.

However, Kong Xuan was surprised to find that the Buddha was actually being suppressed.

And who was suppressing him at this moment?
This figure was completely unexpected by everyone.

It was Jin Chanzi!

"Holy crap, how can this Golden Cicada be so powerful?"

"He is not only extremely strong."

The sword formation he was wielding seemed to be quite formidable as well.

It is actually comparable to the pseudo-Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.

Does such a sword formation exist in the Immortal Realm?
Why have I never heard of this before?

……

Sword formation?

Back in time.

The Buddha is not a fool.

It was precisely because the Ancient Buddha of Guidance and the Bodhi Patriarch were blocked by the Styx Patriarch and the Dark Cloud Immortal that he felt a sense of crisis.

At this time, the Xuanmen sect had not yet made a move.

If the Xuanmen sect were to intervene, who could withstand the Cloud Soaring Jade Cauldron Immortal?
Unless the Kunpeng Ancestor, whom they secretly recruited, joins forces with the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West, they will be able to restrain the two.

"wrong!
It's very likely that they won't be able to control it at all.

Because the alliance between Guanyin and Haotian Jinque has been made public, Zhang Bairen and Haotian Jinque have become mortal enemies.

Zhang Bairen would never allow Haotian Jinque to accomplish anything it wanted to do.

Even if the Kunpeng Ancestor restrains the Jade Cauldron True Man, or Yunxiao, there will still be someone else who descends.

At that time, the person who descends will surely be able to restrain me or Kong Xuan.

The other person could only fight Ksitigarbha one-on-one, and neither could defeat the other.

As a result, not only was Wuyunxian's Buddhism successfully established, but Mahayana Buddhism also lost a large number of Buddhas, in addition to the previous overturning of Mount Sumeru.

The minister, Buddhism, suffered a crushing defeat.

Everyone is skeptical about the rise of Buddhism, and some shady characters hiding in the shadows will also take action.

In fact, the reason why the Styx Ancestor made this tentative move was because he saw that Mahayana Buddhism was showing signs of decline.

No!

We must never expose the weakness of Buddhism.

The proper course of action would be to severely injure or kill Ksitigarbha before Yunxiao and Yuding Zhenren make their move.

The Buddha was definitely a rational person.

Even so, though his heart was filled with endless murderous intent, and he wanted to tear Jin Chanzi to pieces.

However, they immediately cooperated with Kong Xuan to attack Ksitigarbha.

Unexpectedly, the Buddha chose to temporarily abandon Jin Chanzi. So what did Jin Chanzi do when he saw the Buddha attacking Ksitigarbha?

They actually took the initiative to block the way for Buddha.

"Are you going to stop me?"

The Buddha was taken aback.

The Buddha knew perfectly well how much the golden cicada weighed.

In addition, he repeatedly had Jin Chanzi use the Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell technique to save people.

This resulted in Jin Chanzi only being a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and even then, just an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal.

wrong!

Just now, he used the Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell technique again, so he should only be a Golden Immortal now.

How could a Golden Immortal possibly stand in the way of a top ten Quasi-Saint?
It's like a frog unaware of the vastness of the sky, or a winter insect unaware of the summer.

shallow!

This Golden Cicada is too superficial.

However, before the Buddha could finish off Jin Chanzi with a wave of his hand, Jin Chanzi spoke up: "I know that the Zhuxian Sword Formation is the number one sword formation in the world."

However, I do not agree with the pseudo-Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation in your possession.

I happen to have a sword formation in hand as well, so we can use it to verify each other's strengths.

Sword formation?

To be honest, when I heard Jin Chanzi say that the pseudo-Zhu Xian Sword Formation wasn't very good...

Many cultivators in the Earthly Immortal Realm felt that Jin Chanzi was exaggerating.

It should be noted that even the pseudo-Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is still the strongest formation in the prehistoric world, second only to the true Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, the Heavenly God and Demon Formation, the Myriad Immortals Formation, and the Primordial Chaos Formation.

It's impossible for Jin Chanzi to possess any kind of ultimate formation.

Besides, Jin Chanzi was referring to a sword formation.

In the Immortal Realm, besides the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, what other sword formations are worthy of being presented?
Everyone shared the same thoughts as the Buddha.

It changed in an instant.

The Buddha discovered that Jin Chanzi had changed.

Not only did his aura become unfathomable, but the space around him also began to distort, as if he could see countless scenes from the past, present, and future.

His body projected two figures, moving between the past and the future.

Mysterious swords roamed around the past, the future, and the body of the Golden Cicada himself.

At this moment, the past, present, and future are connected, and forty-nine battle swords emerge.

Forty-nine ancient war swords?
It turns out that in the Cloud Tower Palace, Jin Chanzi not only learned about his future, but also received an opportunity bestowed by Su Qing.

This opportunity allowed him to transform the fake Longevity Realm's Forty-Nine Battle Sword into a real one.
