The demon monk in the second dimension

"Even Amitabha Buddha was knocked down by the Holy Body Senior. If it weren't for the two Great Saints guarding it, Mount Sumeru would have been captured long ago!"

These people all wanted to go up Mount Sumeru to rescue Huahua, but the two Great Sages were simply beyond their ability to deal with.

Just as they were assembling their team, they discovered that Hua Hua had actually returned!

Especially those who were brought back by Xia Zhi riding a peacock.

Seeing the familiar bald young man, Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise.

"Flower!"

"Master, I miss you so much!"

Hua Hua stepped forward and gave Ye Fan a tight hug.

Afterwards, Ye Fan and the others came to greet Xia Zhi.

"I've met senior."

On the ancient road through the starry sky, Ye Fan subdued twelve Saint Kings.

At this moment, the twelve Saint Kings and several friends who had once climbed Mount Sumeru but were knocked down, such as Dongfang Ye and Saint King Qi Luo, stared in disbelief at the peacock under Xia Zhi's buttocks.

"This looks like a great sage, doesn't it?"

"Is this the Great Peacock King of Mount Sumeru?"

"Wow! Riding the Great Sage, this senior is truly formidable!"

The Great Peacock King glared with his phoenix eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, and sent these people tumbling.

They were startled and dared not look any further.

Later, these holy kings learned that he was a very famous person in the Big Dipper during the summer solstice.

He not only stole the power of Amitabha Buddha's faith accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years to attain enlightenment, but also shattered his faith body, which was almost equivalent to destroying an emperor. Furthermore, he shattered his spiritual fruit, leaving everyone speechless.

Upon seeing Xia Zhi again, Ye Fan couldn't help but ask him a question.

"Senior, have you successfully attained enlightenment?"

After all, Xia Zhi said 150 years ago that he would use the power of these beliefs to prove the truth.

Now that he has reappeared, has he succeeded in attaining enlightenment?

Ye Fan himself took it all in stride.

After achieving the Great Perfection of the Holy Body, one is comparable to an Emperor; whether or not one attains the Dao is another matter.

Moreover, if Xia Zhi attains enlightenment, it will provide extremely strong support in the face of the impending chaos.

Xia Zhi nodded first, then shook her head.

"This humble monk has already attained the Buddhahood of the Southern Heavenly Pure World Evil King, and should quell all evil in the world. However, this humble monk's path is different from yours, and does not require the mark of the Heavenly Heart, so he can still attain the Great Emperor's status in this world."

Just as Ye Fan and the others were overjoyed, Xia Zhi poured cold water on their excitement.

"But at this time, there are already quasi-emperors at the ninth level who are about to attain enlightenment and are lying in wait to prove their Dao. You must speed up."

"what?"

"Nine levels of Quasi-Emperor?"

Upon hearing this news, the group of people were stunned.

Li Tian and Yan Yixi sighed even more.

"Where did this Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven come from? I'm not even a Great Sage yet, so what's the point of proving my Dao!"

Chapter 397 Argument

That evening, Ye Fan held a grand banquet in Tianzhi Village and announced his intention to rebuild the Heavenly Court.

The twelve saint kings who followed him were very satisfied with the name and clamored to create a glorious divine dynasty like that of the Emperor.

Meanwhile, with the opening of the Immortal Realm, countless saints came to the Big Dipper, causing much turmoil.

The sages decided to convene another grand assembly of all races, using a continent in the starry sky as their base, to thoroughly discuss the distribution of benefits.

Ye Fan asked Xia Zhi to intervene, and Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

"Alright."

After successfully transforming himself, Xia Zhi prepared to preach and expound his teachings, summarize his Buddhist scriptures and doctrines, and pass them down to future generations.

This technique is unlike the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra; it is a true immortal-level Buddhist technique that perfectly replaces Amitabha Buddha's position in this universe.

Buddhism is not lacking in methods for harnessing the power of faith and the thoughts of sentient beings. When the Buddha preaches again, he can ask the Buddha of Merit, other colleagues, or even the Tathagata himself for some.

This thing is neither important nor unimportant, but you still need to know a little about it.

Otherwise, if people ask, this Bodhisattva says he has hundreds of millions of followers, that Buddha says he saved several planets, and Xia Zhi can only say "Aba aba aba".

After the banquet, Xia Zhi went to Mount Sumeru.

Just like when dealing with the Great Peacock King, Xia Zhi used the power of the Immortal King to seal off the entire Mount Sumeru, preparing to convert the Buddhist disciples there.

After Amitabha Buddha's path to enlightenment collapsed, those who remained on Mount Sumeru were all die-hard followers of Amitabha Buddha. They could not be taught through normal means, so they could only be forcibly converted.

Besides the Great Sage Moke, there are three Buddhist saints here, all of whom are under Xia Zhi's control.

Intending to promote Buddhism, he came to the Great Thunder Temple, waved his hand, and several ancient characters immediately changed.

At the same time, the summer solstice exhales and makes a sound, which, with the blessing of Buddha, resounds through the Big Dipper.

"From this day forward, the Great Thunderclap Temple shall be renamed the Southern Heaven Temple! I, the Southern Heaven Pure World Evil King Buddha, shall preach at the Southern Heaven Temple and establish the Southern Heaven Buddhist School!"

He sat cross-legged atop Mount Sumeru, transforming into a colossal Buddha thousands of feet tall. He wore a crimson crown with five directions of the Dharma protectors on his head, a golden-red agate and glass robe on his body, and held a nine-ringed red gold Zen staff, revealing half of his magnificent body.

A hundred-foot peacock let out a hoofbeat, deftly folded its magnificent wings, and landed on Xia Zhi's left shoulder.

The peacock's five-colored feathers spread out, radiating a rosy glow, with a misty aura flowing around it, perfectly concealing the summer solstice's exposed body.

At the same time, they also found the best seats for the audience.

Xia Zhi's entire outfit was given to her by Buddha. In this world, each piece would be a Celestial King-level sacrificial artifact, perfectly matching Xia Zhi's appearance.

From the summer solstice, a radiant light of Buddha shot into the sky, illuminating the dark and profound universe.

A vast aura of supreme power permeated the air, as if it were crushing the starry sky and illuminating the entire Big Dipper.

This ancient star, radiating boundless Buddhist light, shone brilliantly, and for a time was no less dazzling than the Sun.

On the summer solstice, chants of Buddhist hymns resound, and people compile their own interpretations of the scriptures.

His words were like a lion's roar, or a dragon's cry, their echoes lingering for three days.

Not only Mount Sumeru, but the entire Western Desert could hear his narration. No matter how far or near, even if one passed through the barriers, it was as if he were speaking right next to one's ear.

At this moment, flowers rained down from the sky and golden lotuses sprang from the ground on Mount Sumeru. All Buddhas were silent, and only the summer solstice reigned supreme.

The monks throughout the Western Desert were so captivated by his Buddhist teachings that they were unable to resist listening to the sutras taught on the summer solstice.

With such a commotion, only a blind person could not see it.

Before the summer solstice, he said he had seized the power of Amitabha Buddha's 300,000 years of faith to attain enlightenment. Now that he has returned, many people believe that he has successfully attained enlightenment.

A fool wouldn't come to preach the Dharma of an emperor who first attained the Great Holy Body, broke the Dharma of Amitabha Buddha, and then attained enlightenment through his own Buddhist teachings!

Upon hearing this, countless people brought their altars to the Western Desert, wanting to ascend Mount Sumeru to hear the Dharma.

Flying is forbidden on Mount Sumeru; no one can fly. Even the Great Sage and saints who come to listen to the teachings must climb the mountain step by step.

Looking at the towering Mount Sumeru, many people sighed in despair and sat cross-legged by the Merit Pool to listen to the Dharma.

Many great sages and saints also climbed up the mountain step by step from the foot of the mountain.

Although flying is prohibited here, magical power is not. With their abilities, running is not much different from flying.

At the summit of Mount Sumeru, the first sermon on the summer solstice lasted for seven days and seven nights.

On the morning of the eighth day, Xia Zhi began again from the beginning, continuing to recite his scriptures three times before stopping.

He passed through three stages and achieved enlightenment in 49 days each time, so the numbers three and seven are the key points of his method.

The numbers three and seven also appear frequently in the scriptures concerning the summer solstice.

When the summer solstice sermon was finished, all the monks were overjoyed and immersed in the scriptures.

Practitioners from other schools of thought also had their eyes light up, having gained quite a bit.

After waiting for three hours, when the monks were awake, Xia Zhi spoke again, his voice as loud and clear as a great bell.

"My Buddhist path aims to purify the evils of the world, clarify the king's anger, and attain the great fruit of goodness! My Buddhist disciples and descendants should use the Dharma to illuminate wisdom, use the practice to bless themselves, follow my path, be free from ignorance and anger, and thus achieve enlightenment!"

The Great Peacock King on Xia Zhi's shoulder landed, transformed into a proud human form, and together with the Ancient Buddha Maha and other Buddhist saints, they bowed to Xia Zhi.

"Homage to the Buddha, the Pure King of Evil in the Southern Heaven!"

The other cultivators also realized what was happening and sincerely praised it as well.

"Homage to the Buddha, the Pure King of Evil in the Southern Heaven!"

After bowing three times, the Great Peacock King soared into the sky and flew out of the Big Dipper.

As soon as they left the territory of Mount Sumeru, thick clouds of calamity spread above the head of the Great Peacock King.

She was originally at the pinnacle of the Great Sage realm, and after listening to Xia Zhi's Buddhist teachings at extremely close range for the past half month, she was about to break through her current realm.

Looking at the tribulation clouds surrounding the Great Peacock King, many Great Sages showed expressions of envy.

Although he was only a quasi-emperor, he also had the title of emperor, and thus soared to the heavens, separating himself from the Great Sage by two realms.

Take the ultimate weapons for example. Once someone becomes a quasi-emperor, they can truly unleash the power of ultimate weapons and display their ferocity.

Unlike the Great Sage, who was even looked down upon for making a battery for an ultimate weapon.

In a meteorite belt within the starry sky, the Great Peacock King stopped, preparing to face the tribulation of lightning.

boom!

The massive storm clouds gathered together, some as large as an asteroid.

The blinding lightning illuminated the universe, intertwining densely to form a bluish-purple lightning dragon that swooped down on the Great Peacock King.

"Ow!"

This thunder dragon, though clearly born from a tribulation of lightning, seems to be a truly living creature.

It extended a dragon claw, its claws and teeth exuding boundless power, capable of easily crushing a Great Sage with a single claw!

But there's more than one Thunder Dragon!

Soon, the other eight thunder dragons emerged from the dense thunder pool, formed a magic array, and attacked the Great Peacock King together!

On Mount Sumeru, many great saints turned pale upon seeing the tribulation lightning.

They asked themselves honestly, if they were in this quasi-emperor's tribulation, would they be confident they could survive it?

The Great Peacock King faced the nine blue dragons, his phoenix eyes gleaming with golden light, his gaze haughty.

As a supreme saint who fought her way out of the ancient demon race, she has also stained her hands with the blood of many geniuses, including many descendants of sacred beasts!

Bring on the mere tribulation of lightning!

Chapter 398 The Peacock's Tribulation

"Great Ming King Fist!"

This is a boxing technique that the Great Peacock King just created based on the scriptures of the Summer Solstice. It is based on subduing the wrath of the Three World Kings, and it fully unleashes the Buddha's anger. It is majestic and dignified, using orthodoxy to overcome the unorthodox.

Five-colored light surrounded the Great Peacock King, as if he were wearing a golden armor.

The radiant lightning snakes crashed into the five-colored divine light, yet they could not shake it in the slightest.

boom!

The downward-pressing dragon collided with the divine fist of the Great Peacock King, and even the stars were shattered by the aftershocks.

The Great Peacock King withstood the immense power of the Azure Dragon.

She punched across the sky, shattering the giant claw that the Azure Dragon had extended.

Blood splattered on the Azure Dragon's claws, and its scales were shattered.
