Invitation declined; Multiverse Mall is now open for business.

"no!"

"We must never allow a demon to become the head of all Buddhist sects."

Fahai strode over, his face stern, and spoke loudly.

"It's you again, you monk."

Master Jiugong no longer concealed his killing intent, staring at Fahai with chilling eyes.

She could clearly sense that many monks were wavering.

However, Fahai's appearance brought a change to the situation.

"I can recommend that Buddha be included in the Myriad Realms Mall."

Fahai, with a solemn expression, said...

Even if the Buddha himself were to take action, suppressing the Nine Palaces Immortal would not be an easy task.

"Is the Buddha of your world like you?"

Master Fangzheng of the Laughing World, Abbot Kongwen of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber World, and Abbot Xuanci of the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils World did not get too excited when they heard Fahai's words. Instead, they cast pairs of surprised and uncertain glances at Fahai.

If it were the world where Fahai lived, the Buddha would also believe, just like Fahai, that a demon is a demon and should be suppressed without exception.

They preferred to choose the Nine Palaces Immortal as the Buddha Master of all Buddhist sects.

Fahai, "..."

Seeing the disdainful looks from the monks, Fahai didn't know how to describe his feelings at that moment.

Why is it that the revered Buddha in his eyes has not only become a commodity in the Multiverse Mall, but is also so rejected by monks from other worlds?

"Let me first check among the monks around you to see if there are any strong ones."

Fahai hesitated for a moment, then turned his gaze to the people around the altar.

"Master, why don't you come up on stage?"

With his initial fourth-level cultivation, Fahai quickly sensed an unfathomable aura filled with Buddhist qualities among the crowd.

"Who?"

Everyone followed Fahai's gaze.

"Amitabha Buddha, this humble monk is not virtuous enough to dare to compete for the position of Buddha Master in Buddhism."

A middle-aged man who looked ordinary, with an ordinary appearance and temperament, wearing a coarse linen monk's robe and black Buddhist beads, shook his head slightly.

[Name: Bodhidharma]

[Identity: A Zen Buddhist patriarch from the Northern and Southern Dynasties period in the world of Dragon Tiger Gate.]

"Master, if you don't take action, are you going to let a demon become the Buddha of all the Buddhist sects?"

"If the master does not want to be the head of Buddhism, he can simply decline the position after winning."

Fahai tried to dissuade him.

"Then I'll give it a try."

Bodhidharma pondered for a moment, then slowly walked towards the altar.

Because he really didn't want the Nine Palaces Master to take the position of the Buddha of Buddhism.

The Nine Palaces Master is far too wicked; he is not a true Buddhist master.

Although the Buddhist supernatural powers of the Nine Palaces Master appear to be domineering and boundless, he has not grasped the essence of supernatural powers. He has only learned the surface of the Dharma form of the Great Sun Tathagata and has not comprehended its profound meaning.

"I never imagined there was such a master as you in Buddhism?"

"However, although you are a martial arts expert at the mid-level of the fourth tier, I have already broken through to the high-level of the fourth tier."

Master Jiugong sensed the restrained yet vast energy within Bodhidharma's body, and instead of panic, he smiled broadly.

She was extremely relieved!

Fortunately, during her time in the Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons world, she also sold referral slots along with Sun Wukong, the King of Demons, earning a substantial amount of value points. This allowed her to purchase the resources needed to break through to the advanced fourth-tier realm in the Myriad Realms Mall.

Otherwise, she might have had to fight a bloody battle with this seemingly ordinary monk today, which would be very disadvantageous for her becoming the master of all Buddhist sects.

"one move!"

"I can kill you in one move!"

Master Jiugong was extremely confident, looking down at Bodhidharma with a disdainful expression.

"Master Jiugong is so strong, he actually broke through to the advanced fourth rank?"

Before the Master Fangzheng of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Abbot Kongwen of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, and Abbot Xuanci of The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils could even rejoice, their expressions grew increasingly solemn upon hearing the words of the Nine Palaces True Man.

"How could someone at the intermediate level of the fourth tier possibly be a match for someone at the advanced level of the fourth tier?"

"This is the only way. Once this mysterious monk is defeated, we can pose some difficult questions during the next round of Buddhist sermons, so that Master Jiu 630 cannot answer them."

“That’s right. As long as this mysterious monk isn’t instantly killed, even if we lose badly, we’ll still have a lot of room to maneuver in the next round.”

"Hopefully he can hold on for a while longer."

······

Another round of discussion and anticipation erupted in the Buddhist conference chat group.

They had no hope that this seemingly ordinary monk could defeat the Nine Palaces Master.

After all, the other party is only at the intermediate level of the fourth rank. How can he compare with the Nine Palaces True Man at the advanced level of the fourth rank?

"go to hell!"

The Nine Palaces True Person no longer concealed her strength; the four Tathagata Dharma forms she controlled surged with power in an instant, becoming even more terrifying.

Previously, it took four Tathagata images to subdue Fahai, but now only one Tathagata image is needed to easily defeat him.

"Om~"

The four Buddha images, resembling demons, slapped towards Bodhidharma.

"Golden Bell!"

"Bodhidharma's Golden Body!"

Bodhidharma's body instantly turned dark gold. At the same time, a giant golden bell, hundreds of feet tall, appeared around him, covered with dense Sanskrit characters, as if all the Buddhas of the heavens were chanting Buddhist mantras.

"Clang~", "Clang~", "Clang~"...

The four giant palms of the Tathagatas slammed down on the golden bell, creating ripples and producing a terrifying, deafening sound.

However, it did not break through the Golden Bell's defenses, remaining as immovable as a mountain.

“You are definitely not an ordinary monk.”

"who are you?"

In an instant, the four Tathagatas struck the golden bell hundreds of times, but still failed to break through its defenses, much to the astonishment of the Nine Palaces True Man.

The opponent's defense actually blocked her attack, even though she was just a mid-level fourth-tier martial artist.

"I am really just an ordinary monk."

Bodhidharma said calmly.

"This humble monk is Bodhidharma."

"Bodhidharma, isn't that the same as Bodhidharma, the Patriarch?"

"Hahaha... This time it's secure, this time it's really secure, our Buddhist sect has hope."

"Bodhidharma was the founder of Shaolin Temple, no less than Zhang Sanfeng. Moreover, Bodhidharma is now stronger than Zhang Sanfeng. Our Buddhist sect has a chance to surpass the Wudang sect."

"After hardship comes happiness! After hardship comes happiness! Our Buddhist community has finally ushered in hope. Regardless of whether there are other Buddhist masters today, we will definitely elect Bodhidharma as the Buddha of all Buddhist communities."

······

The monks, including Abbot Fangzheng from The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Abbot Kongwen from The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, and Abbot Xuanci from The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, beamed with joy as they looked at Bodhidharma with utmost reverence.

Although the Buddha was the founder of Buddhism, Bodhidharma was a more approachable and real figure to them.

"Buddhism is incredibly lucky! Bodhidharma has actually entered the Myriad Realms Mall, and his strength has reached the mid-level of the fourth rank. Such powerful strength can directly elevate Buddhism."

The others in the Myriad Realms Mall also looked surprised and somewhat envious.

Bodhidharma is very famous.

The Marrow Cleansing Classic, the Tendon Changing Classic, the Boy's Skill, and other unique martial arts, as well as the Seventy-Two Arts of Shaolin Temple, are all attributed to Bodhidharma in some martial arts worlds.

The reason why Shaolin Temple has been able to continue its lineage for thousands of years without interruption is that it has been able to pass on its traditions.

It's because Bodhidharma left behind so many martial arts techniques, and his legacy is so profound.

Other sects may have at most a dozen or so martial arts manuals, or at most a few dozen martial arts techniques, but Shaolin Temple is different; it has more than a hundred techniques in total.

Furthermore, most of these martial arts techniques would be considered top-tier if they were used in the martial arts world.

Under these circumstances, the probability of Shaolin Temple producing masters is far greater than that of other sects.
