"Despicable!"

High above, Emperor Qinghua witnessing the scene on the ground, couldn't help but seethe with anger!

Such a despicable tactic.

Using Sun Wukong's kindness, entangling ordinary humans in the war, and restraining Sun Wukong.

"Your Majesty!"

Emperor Qinghua found an opportunity to escape the battlefield and landed on the ground. He said to Sun Wukong, "Leave this place to me, go confront that White Robed Venerate."

He reminded Sun Wukong, "These Buddhist disciples and mortals are all controlled by that Venerate. Only by repelling him can we win."

Sun Wukong nodded.

"Alright."

He looked up at the White Robed Venerate and with a "boom" leapt into the air, charging towards the White Robed Venerate.

In an instant, he was in front of the White Robed Venerate.

"Disperse."

With one sentence, the Venerate immediately made all the surrounding Buddhist disciples scatter.

Sun Wukong swung his staff down, Immortal Energy surged, flames swept across the sky, engulfing the White Robed Venerate.

After the strike, the White Robed Venerate blazed furiously, his form collapsed, then reformed.

Endless Buddha Light enveloped him. The White Robed Venerate's presence was transcendent, bearing not a single scar.

"No use."

The White Robed Venerate said, "You know I am not here, so why bother doing this?"

"I will find you!"

Fire flickered in Sun Wukong's eyes.

Sitting in front of him was not the true body of the White Robed Venerate, but a huge Dharma Embodiment; the main body was hidden elsewhere.

Sun Wukong swung his staff again, shattering the White Robed Venerate's Dharma Embodiment.

Every Dharma Embodiment has its origin, its point of connection with the will of the main body—once found, Sun Wukong would be able to locate the White Robed Venerate.

The incarnation of the White Robed Venerate kept shattering under Sun Wukong's staff and reforming again and again.

"It's useless."

How could he not know Sun Wukong's methods?

The White Robed Venerate said, "Even if you have Eyes of Golden Flame, to find a spark of will in this vast embodiment, it will take endlessly long."

"Even if this war ends, you won't be able to find me."

He glanced at the battlefield, saying, "You're wasting time with me here, causing those Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to fail."

"They will win."

Sun Wukong continued his assault.

"How will they defeat my Buddhist disciples?"

The White Robed Venerate smiled, "Moreover, can you allow them to kill my billions of followers?"

He was certain Sun Wukong couldn't bear to watch indifferently.

But to him, the lives of those followers didn't matter at all.

The flesh is the root of troubles; casting off the body leads one to Jile.

If some could attain the right fruit amidst the fires of war, nothing could be better.

"Look at your Heavenly Soldiers and Generals."

While enduring Sun Wukong's attacks, the White Robed Venerate said, "They are falling one by one."

On the battlefield, flames raged, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals fought desperately, but facing the torrential surge of Buddhist disciples, inevitably some fell.

With a "boom," another Heavenly Soldier or General was gravely wounded, plummeting to the ground.

Countless mortals rushed towards him, quickly overwhelming him.

The White Robed Venerate withdrew his gaze.

"Are you not going to care for them?"

He looked at Sun Wukong in puzzlement.

Sun Wukong didn't speak, swinging his staff again, unleashing a tremendous blaze, pulverizing the White Robed Venerate.

As the White Robed Venerate reformed once more, he discovered the flames from Sun Wukong's repeated attacks had remained, forming a Wanling pattern of fire clouds beneath him.

"Wanling Heavenly Dao."

The White Robed Venerate said, "I can see your anger inside, but even so, what can it do?"

"Noise!"

Sun Wukong once again destroyed the White Robed Venerate.

Flames lingered in his hand as he shouted loudly, "Act now!"

"As commanded!"

A sound came from the ground.

Immediately after, a massive burst of light rose from the ground, shaking the earth.

Many Buddhas in the sky looked down to see Emperor Qinghua radiating light all over, utterly holy, then emitting countless dazzling rays of light flying in all directions.

Each ray of light was an embodiment.

The Buddhas widened their eyes in surprise; the lights were so numerous and brilliant that they covered the whole land.

"Go to sleep!"

Emperor Qinghua's voice echoed in every corner of the land, surrounding the crowd.

People on the ground fell one by one without resistance, silent thereafter.

"How could this be..."

The reformed White Robed Venerate was stunned.

"He is the Savior of Sufferings, who can transform into billions, not fewer than your subjects."

Sun Wukong said, "My Heavenly Dao cannot harm you, but it can isolate you."

With a thought, the White Robed Venerate then realized that he could no longer use the power of the Jade Seal to suppress Emperor Qinghua.

After all, he was merely a Dharma Embodiment here; once isolated by Sun Wukong, it was hard to do as he pleased.

The White Robed Venerate sighed.

"Good plan."

He was cautious but did not expect Sun Wukong to react so quickly.

Sun Wukong wasn't attacking him but was distracting him, using the opportunity to create a Barrier with his Heavenly Dao, separating him from the battlefield.

"I didn't expect your Heavenly Dao to have improved."

The White Robed Venerate said.

Sun Wukong's Heavenly Dao was different from what he had seen in the Three Realms.

He didn't expect the Heavenly Dao to have the ability to isolate with a Barrier, perhaps his travels through Chaos had changed it.

The White Robed Venerate felt regretful; one oversight from him was enough to cause a shift in the battlefield situation.

In the sky, beams of light twinkled.

"Our power has returned!"

Apart from Emperor Qinghua, the Jade Emperor, and Gouchen, among others, felt their pressures vanish.

They regained their powers and seeing Emperor Qinghua controlling the ground, their faces lit up with joy.

"Now is the time!"

Gouchen shouted loudly, "His Majesty has stalled the White Robed Venerate, we attack now, victory is certain, the assault will conquer!"

"Victory is certain, the assault will conquer!"

One hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals surged with boiling blood and charged again.

The rumble of War Drums in the sky was like a tsunami, shaking the heavens.

The White Robed Venerate's expression subtly changed—what tremendous force, what unity.

However...

"Sun Wukong, you forgot what this place is."

The White Robed Venerate looked at Sun Wukong, speaking, "Look at the ground."

Sun Wukong looked down, his expression changing.

He saw the ground, where clouds and mist had reappeared, flowing like springs.

Beautiful Buddha chants echoed through the land, numerous lotuses sprouted and blossomed, then countless Buddhas emerged from them.

"How is that possible..."

Sun Wukong's gaze swept over these Buddhas, his heart sinking, "Weren't they fallen in the war?"

He saw some Buddhas who had fallen in the war walking out of the lotuses unharmed.

"This place is Jile, the verge between life and death has long been broken."

The White Robed Venerate put his palms together and said, "Sun Wukong, my Buddhas can come back to life countless times, whereas your Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, once dead, are truly dead."
