"BOOM!"
First, there was a thunderous explosion, followed by continuous rumbling.
"Boom boom boom boom boom——"
In the distant sky, one huge void after another appeared, and within them, the signs of earth, water, wind, and fire were faintly boiling.
And in the gaps of those voids, a figure shrouded in golden light was faintly visible, emanating a Qi Mechanism that shook the universe. Essence, Qi, and Spirit, an incomparably vast Three Elements Breath emanated from its body, causing the winds and clouds to change color and the rivers to break their flow.
The space shattered under its fist, even breaking into earth, water, wind, and fire, using pure power to rupture the True Void Home, nearly collapsing the Guanyin Dharma Image.
"So powerful!"
On a distant river, Lou Shuangying of the Fire House Buddha Hell Four Kings watched this scene in awe, "This is turning space into earth, water, wind, and fire, all things void, this monkey's Buddhist cultivation is indeed too profound."
Earth, water, wind, and fire are the four great elements recognized by Buddhism, the constituents of the material world.
If the four elements are dispersed, then color and emptiness are in chaos, all things are void.
To turn space into earth, water, wind, and fire is a scene more severe than space shattering, requiring a power of unimaginable strength and a profound understanding of Buddha Skill.
In Lou Shuangying's understanding, except for the Awakened, no one in the Buddha Country should be able to achieve this.
Thinking so, Lou Shuangying looked to the left front.
There, Luo Hou stood majestically, also looking into the distance. Seemingly aware of Lou Shuangying's gaze, Luo Hou turned and said, "I can barely do it, but far from that one, unless······"
Luo Hou shook his head, not saying much, just said, "The Worldly Venerable previously said, the Awakened awakened the Gods and Buddhas before the End of Dharma, it should be this one. Guanyin and Tan Wuwei facing this one, being able to hold them off is already in line with expectations."
Others' understanding of Sun Wukong, this monkey, is only superficial, at most they think the Awakened secretly cultivated a Third Grade, not even letting others notice its existence.
But Luo Hou knows this monkey's notorious reputation before the End of Dharma.
After all, Karma Tathagata and the Awakened were one, possessing the memory of the Awakened until a hundred years ago, naturally knowing how many means the Awakened had.
Guanyin and Tan Wuwei are facing it two against one, but just being able to hold off this Victorious Battle Buddha is already achieving the purpose.
Luo Hou didn't even know what means the two of them used to keep this one from leaving, instead of fiercely attacking them.
"So it existed before the End of Dharma······"
Hearing Luo Hou's words, Lou Shuangying was first surprised, then showed a schadenfreude expression, "It seems those two Great Masters are in for a suffering, maybe someone will fall today. Heh, who told them to take the lead and be used like a tool."
Though an enemy to the Buddha Country, Lou Shuangying's attitude showed no fondness for the two Great Masters who betrayed the Awakened.
"They won't die, these two took the lead, just like the Worldly Venerable back then, they not only won't die but will constantly draw out other Third Grades to assist." Luo Hou, however, saw the situation clearly, knowing these two Great Masters are no fools, everything they do has a purpose.
Back when the Awakened ascended, they attracted a group of old Sixth Brothers to intercept, but the main combat power was still Karma Tathagata, others were auxiliary.
Now, the Awakened attempts another ascension, needing a second "Karma Tathagata."
Continuing to help Karma Tathagata is impossible, lest they hinder the Awakened and instead achieve Karma Tathagata, they need another target.
Guanyin and Tan Wuwei proactively became this target, also using their own actions to lead other Third Grades into action.
It seems unwise, but is actually a move to take risks to gain profit, it requires great courage and capability.
Luo Hou praised the courage of these two.
If not for urgent matters, he would not hesitate to take a closer look at this great battle.
Luo Hou withdrew his gaze and said, "No more words, time to lead the water. We're not far from the Heavenly Dragon Eight Peaks, the water veins should be converging."
The Heavenly Dragon Eight Peaks, or Eight-Peak Mountain, is a mountain range formed by connecting eight peaks, a crucial place for the Dharma Protecting Divine General of the Buddha Country and a barrier for the Spiritual Platform Mountain.
Although this barrier can't block Third Grade, it qualifies as a place to hinder water flow.
Numerous water veins follow the terrain, converging before Eight-Peak Mountain, possibly being blocked at Eight-Peak Mountain.
"Yes."
Lou Shuangying responded, took out the Stone Flute, and began to play a rousing tune.
The rushing water's momentum suddenly accelerated, and in the front, the earth split, river channels continuously opened up, causing a ten-zhang wide torrent to extend towards Eight-Peak Mountain.
At the same time, the Giant Snake Baqi hissed, its thick neck wildly thrashing, the floodwaters ravaging, devouring the surrounding land while also surging towards Eight-Peak Mountain.
As a symbol of disaster, the Giant Snake Baqi benefited significantly this time, not only recovering from previous injuries but also advancing its Dao Fruit fusion to Perfection, if not lacking a Third Grade Dao Fruit in hand, it would have been ready to ascend directly.
On the other side, the Sea Patrol Yaksha and Flood Dragon drove the water, stirring up waves, amid the turbulent tide, a giant Flood Dragon's head emerged from beneath the water, instantly intensifying the river's current, raging wildly.
Another river was guided by a group of differently dressed cultivators, although lacking the grandeur of the previous ones, they were no slower in guiding the water veins.
If viewed from a high altitude, one would see the ground splitting, fissures extending towards Eight-Peak Mountain, the rushing torrents like four evil dragons converging from all directions.
Coupled with the blocked Black Water River, five water flows converge, enough to submerge the mountain range beneath the Eight Peaks, then engulf the Mountain of Mind and Heart.
As the distance to Eight-Peak Mountain closed, the water energies from all sides converged, surprisingly tinting the water color with a murky yellow, followed by a mysterious force stirring, causing the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar-like Ruyi Jingu Bang to be jolted.
Once the Nine Curves Yellow River Formation forms, it can endanger Third Grade, even the Ruyi Jingu Bang, this Sea Stabilizing Divine Treasure, can certainly not suppress it.
However, at this moment——
"Qi Mechanism!"
Luo Hou suddenly looked up, his blood and Qi surged from within, gazing intently at the sky.
The sun-swallowing shadow was gradually receding, the Great Sun's light once again shining upon the earth, yet an indefinable Qi Mechanism appeared at this time, overshadowing the Great Sun's presence, causing others to instinctively focus their perception on the brilliant light, drawn by some presence.
With the spatial fluctuations, the sunlight fanned out, a silhouette slowly appeared in everyone's eyes, descending towards Eight-Peak Mountain.
As its feet touched the central peak, in an instant, mountains shook, lands quaked, and the eight peaks trembled, an intangible and immaterial Qi Mechanism became a tangible storm and gust, sweeping across a thousand miles.
Trees and grasses were uprooted, like a natural disaster passing through, disaster struck all approaching Eight-Peak Mountain.
Oddly shaped heterodox cultivators were powerless against the storm and gust, instantly exploding, while the Flood Dragon and Sea Patrol Yaksha in the river were simultaneously crushed, staining the river with their blood, only the largest Flood Dragon coiled into a snake formation, forcibly withstanding the gust.
But even so, its ferocious aura was diminished, not as formidable as before.
"Roar!"
The Giant Snake Baqi roared, hit by the gust, its eight-colored demonic clouds blown away, countless Wind Blades slashing its body, producing a clanging sound.
Simultaneously, Luo Hou's blood and Qi burst forth, his figure suddenly rising, hand like a mountain, striking the gust.
"Bang!"
He was the only one to break through the storm and gust head-on, but his form was still shaken by that Qi Mechanism.
"Such powerful Qi Mechanism······" Luo Hou murmured, "To have such impact with just Qi Mechanism, his Power, his Physical Body······"
Unfinished, the land before Eight-Peak Mountain cracked open, forming a horizontal rift hundreds of miles long, various water veins pouring there like waterfalls into the rift.
A single person's might reached such a degree, truly awe-inspiring and terrifying.
