The Tathāgata Must Fail

Chapter 98: Believe


The Buddhas he had seen were never like this.

Sun Wukong looked towards Lingshan and could feel something inside the mountain sucking all the Spiritual Energy from the Star Palace.

To create the Pure Land, the White Robed Venerate had actually created a disaster.

And the disaster, too, was the quickest way to universally guide and relieve the living beings.

"Junior brother, did you already know it would be like this?"

Immortal Zhen Yuan asked with an iron blue face.

"I had only speculated before."

Sun Wukong replied: "It's just confirmed now."

He extended his hand and drew a Rune, shooting it towards the Heavenly Horse.

On the Heavenly Horse, the Demon Suppressing Tower quickly transformed into a beam of light and flew towards Lingshan.

"The Demon Suppressing Tower is on the run."

Immortal Zhen Yuan asked, "Should we chase it?"

"No rush, it will come back."

Sun Wukong calmly said, "Let's just see what they are capable of."

Shortly after, Lingshan suddenly rose with rays of dazzling Buddha Light, quickly flying towards them.

"Under the command of the Demon Suppressing Venerate, let us slay devils and exorcise demons!"

As the Buddha Light neared, it turned out to be several Arhats.

Sun Wukong glanced over, his right hand swelling with the wind, reaching out to cover every beam of light, colliding with the Arhats with a loud bang, exploding into a burst of light.

In just a confrontation, all the Arhats in the sky were struck down, blood spraying everywhere.

"This devil is extraordinary, everyone come help!"

Someone called out, and Buddha Light poured out from Lingshan, vast and mighty, casting large shadows on the ground.

"There are so many."

Sun Wukong pulled out the Jingu Bang, fiercely sweeping it, the sky trembled and thundered.

Rows of Buddha Light were hit, the sky looked like a rain of stars, Arhats spewing large amounts of blood, thunderously crashing to the ground.

All the Arhats from Lingshan were no match for his single strike.

Even the God-beating Whip was dumbfounded.

"Who exactly is he?"

He was astounded in his heart.

And the ordinary people at the foot of Lingshan were scared and in panic, restless, only a few brave ones dared to steal a few glances at Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong, holding the Jingu Bang, stood in the center of endless golden light, his figure like a War God, making everyone tremble with fear and kneel to the ground.

Sun Wukong glanced at these ordinary people kneeling on the ground.

"Immortal, take these people out."

Sun Wukong spoke.

Immortal Zhen Yuan seemed to know what Sun Wukong was going to do, he swung his long sleeves, a majestic Immortal Wind swept across Lingshan, taking all the kneeling creatures and flying them into his sleeves.

"This person is also so powerful!"

The God-beating Whip was utterly astonished.

"Junior brother, I will take them five hundred miles away."

Immortal Zhen Yuan tied up his sleeves and asked, "Is this enough?"

"Enough."

Sun Wukong nodded.

After Immortal Zhen Yuan left, he raised the Jingu Bang, a fiery surge of golden light erupted from the tip of the staff, bringing with it overwhelming flames, enveloping the sky.

At this moment, needless to say, the Arhats all understood what he was going to do.

"Stop!"

They desperately struggled from the ground, rushing towards Sun Wukong like moths to a flame.

Sun Wukong coldly snorted, suddenly showing divine might, rings of light circled him, as the Arhats approached, they touched those rings and exploded like thunder from the Nine Heavens, falling to the ground in batches.

"Go!"

Sun Wukong swung his staff downwards, overwhelming flames struck Lingshan.

Amidst the colossal booming, Lingshan kept collapsing, turning into dust.

This scene was terrifying, as if it was the end of the world.

Sun Wukong suddenly paused, seeing a white egg appearing amidst the overwhelming flames.

The egg was incredibly luminous, emitting Buddha Light, but ultimately it was no match for the power of the Jingu Bang, it struggled momentarily, then shuddered twice, and violently shattered.

"This egg, how similar it is to mine."

Sun Wukong was astonished.

As the strange egg of Lingshan disappeared, the pillars of light that stood above Lingshan shattered instantaneously, transforming into a sky full of auspicious light flying in all directions.

"Devil, by destroying the seed of Pure Land, there will never be a Pure Land in this world again!"

On the ground, an Arhat looked terrified and loudly questioned Sun Wukong: "Do you really want to bring devastation to all beings in this world?"

"It will not bring devastation to all beings."

Sun Wukong replied.

By destroying that egg, he could save more people.

"So that was the seed of the Pure Land."

Sun Wukong realized that the egg was the root cause.

It absorbed the Spiritual Energy of the earth to hatch a Pure Land.

"What a clever plan."

Sun Wukong thought to himself.

He turned to the west, stretched out his hand to grab, and the Demon Suppressing Tower hiding in the shadows appeared in his hand.

"Let me go!"

The Demon Suppressing Tower struggled fiercely.

Sun Wukong cast a spell and sealed it again.

He turned back to look at Lingshan; after a fight, there being no worthy opponent left, Sun Wukong felt somewhat disappointed.

Clearly, the White Robed Venerate was not here either.

He carried the Demon Suppressing Tower and descended toward the ground.

On the ground, the God-beating Whip was holding a girl's hand, warily staring at Sun Wukong.

"Who exactly are you?"

The God-beating Whip asked.

"Didn't the Demon Suppressing Tower tell you?"

The girl following behind Sun Wukong landed and said, "The master is a Heavenly Emperor."

The God-beating Whip quickly bowed in respect: "I did not know of the Immortal's stature, my previous disrespect was unintentional, please forgive me."

"It doesn't matter."

Sun Wukong shook his head, asking, "Now that you know the truth about Pure Land, what will you do next?"

A look of bewilderment appeared in the God-beating Whip's eyes.

He had never considered that establishing a Pure Land could cause a disaster.

However, just like the Demon Suppressing Tower had acted, perhaps this disaster was not important, what was crucial was eventually establishing a Pure Land.

The Demon Suppressing Tower hesitated for a moment, then still asked Sun Wukong for his opinion.

"A Pure Land born from disaster is not a true Pure Land."

Sun Wukong answered.

The Demon Suppressing Tower's heart skipped a beat.

Sun Wukong looked at him for a while and said, "Why don't you come with me to see the Pure Land?"

The Star Official, said by the girl to lead to the outside world, had been transformed into the Pure Land by the White Robed Venerate.

The God-beating Whip thought it over and accepted Sun Wukong's suggestion.

He wanted to know the truth.

"Can I bring her along?"

The God-beating Whip, holding the girl beside him, asked.

Sun Wukong looked at the girl: "She is neither your kith nor kin, it's better to arrange her well in this realm."

The God-beating Whip shook his head: "She has neither kith nor kin in this realm either, it might be better to take her with us."

Sun Wukong looked at the girl.

"Would you like to come with us?"

He asked.

The girl hesitated for a moment, then said, "I want to find my mother, she is my only relative."

Sun Wukong then looked at the God-beating Whip.

"Her mother is no longer alive."

The God-beating Whip stroked the girl's head, secretly employing Immortal Law, comforting her emotions.

"From now on, I will take you as my disciple, and be your family!"

The girl looked blankly at the God-beating Whip, stared for a long time, and finally nodded her head.

The God-beating Whip once again requested Sun Wukong to bring the girl along.

Sun Wukong, trusting the character of the God-beating Whip, nodded in agreement.
