Previously on Cultivation System: Stronger with Age...
Lin Xuankong prepared to intervene as the Great Success Jade Bright Bodhisattva faced the Celestial Eye Demon Lord's powerful demonic technique. However, the strongest Immortal Lord, Guang Yu'er, stopped him, assuring him that the Bodhisattva was strong enough and that she and the Qilin Elder would step in if necessary. Lin Xuankong, also confident in his own Great Reincarnation Technique, observed as the Bodhisattva began to lose ground against the Demon Lord's offensive.
"Could this be the influence of that wisp of Celestial Demon Power obtained by the Profound Yin Demon Sect?
The demonic techniques of this Celestial Eye Demon Lord appear extraordinarily peculiar, not at all resembling the demonic arts previously showcased by the other demons from the Profound Yin Demon Sect!"The assembled young prodigies from the various clans and immortal sects exchanged anxious whispers amongst themselves.As the murmurs spread, the malevolent luminescence emanating from the Celestial Eye Demon Lord's gaze finally overwhelmed all the Buddha's light pillars projected by the Glazed Demon-Slaying Pestle, wielded by the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva. It then struck directly upon the golden shield safeguarding the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva!A beam of bizarre, unholy red light,Upon making contact with the golden shield, shimmering with righteous Buddha's light,An eruption of fierce, boundless energy surged forth from the intersection point of the red beam and the golden shield, propagating outwards with terrifying swiftness!This horrifying energy wave rapidly expanded across the Luo Water Array, meticulously set up by Lin Xuankong. In mere moments, the countless array patterns adorning the outermost light membrane of the Luo Water Array were annihilated. The seemingly impenetrable light membrane itself suffered a slight inward denting, accompanied by immense explosive sounds originating from its exterior!Fortunately, the Luo Water Array, derived from the legendary Luo Water Divine Diagram rumored to be an artifact from the Upper Realm, far surpasses the capabilities of any ordinary Nine-Layered Sect Protection Array!Despite this destructive impact, which appeared capable of leveling heavens and earth, and the obliteration of numerous array patterns on the Luo Water Array’s membrane, it was insufficient to pierce through the light membrane or inflict any actual damage. The membrane, after being momentarily dented by the force, swiftly reverted to its original form!Nevertheless,The deafening explosion sounds resonating from the membrane,Caused a subtle shift in the countenances of the tens of thousands of young cultivators from diverse clans and sects gathered on the First Spirit Peak of the Wine Immortal Sect.Little Linglong, the Ninth-Grade Demon King from the Boundaryless Mountain Emperor Race, one of the Four Great Spirit Beasts, breathed, "My goodness, such overwhelming power! The residual force from the clash between Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva and this Celestial Eye Demon Lord is truly staggering. Had I been outside the Luo Water Array just now, I'd have been flung hundreds of miles away by this spreading power, losing half my scales!I always believed my grandfather, the Cyan Dragon Clan Elder, to be immensely powerful, but I never imagined the might of Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva and this Celestial Eye Demon Lord would exceed even his!It's a blessing that we have the Luo Water Array, meticulously arranged by Immortal Lin; otherwise, from this single exchange alone, we spectators would have sustained severe injuries!"The other young cultivators from the Demon Race positioned behind Ninth-Grade Demon King Little Linglong also exhibited shifting expressions, clearly awestruck by the formidable battle unfolding between these top-tier Immortal Realm combatants. Even under the protection of Lin Xuankong's formidable hundred-layered Luo Water Array, the vast disparity in power between themselves and Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva and the Celestial Eye Demon Lord deeply shook these usually overbearing young demon kings. Furthermore, considering the illusory assaults from the Celestial Eye Demon Lord experienced earlier, these young demon kings' minds had already endured two significant shocks!Should this battle persist, it will not merely impact these demon kings from the Boundaryless Mountain; even the human race cultivators of the Immortal Realm and those of Spirit Platform Buddhism, who have never witnessed the Sect Leader of the Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect, Immortal Lord Luoshui, Elder Qiu, Great Success Yu Zhen Bodhisattva, and Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva in action, will face a demoralizing blow, their arrogance utterly shattered!Indeed,The battle indeed rages on without end…The crimson beam from the Celestial Eye Demon Lord, imbued with waves of terrifying and peculiar power, relentlessly hammered against the golden shield positioned before Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva.Though it appeared as merely a moderately thick streak of light, it seemed to descend with the crushing weight of ten thousand mountains. Its horrifying and strange power caused the golden shield before Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva to tremble violently, scattering golden light in all directions!Several dozen breaths later, a change transpired once more,Behind the golden shield, Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva appeared to perceive a shift. Her wide, indignant eyes flickered as she fixed her gaze upon the golden shield before her.
The golden barrier began to fade at an alarming rate, the Buddhist Spiritual Treasure anomalies etched upon it shifted rapidly. The once majestic Buddhist White Elephant visibly aged, its colossal white tusks quickly darkened before crumbling from its mouth. Similarly, the vivid statue of the Buddhist Flying Bodhisattva underwent rapid deterioration, transforming instantaneously from a plump, beautiful Flying Fairy into a wizened, gray-haired hag. Cracks then started to appear on the various Buddhist Spiritual Treasures, as if subjected to the eons of erosion.
"Such an onslaught! How peculiar... Even the shield, condensed from the Supreme Dharma Golden Body Demon Suppression Technique bestowed by our Great Success ancestor, cannot withstand it?"
Yu Ming Bodhisattva, a cultivator of the Great Success lineage, felt a mixture of suspicion and astonishment.
However, as the crimson beam from the Celestial Eye Demon Lord relentlessly assaulted the golden shield, revealing its precarious state, the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva had no leisure to ponder the source of the Celestial Eye Demon Lord's peculiar abilities.
A subtle shift in her gaze occurred.
A resolute determination suddenly ignited within the eyes of the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva.
In the ensuing moment,
This venerable Great Success Bodhisattva of the Immortal Realm recommenced chanting the Buddhist Mantra. Although the cadence remained nearly identical to her prior incantation, the pace accelerated significantly, and the volume increased manifold!
Upon the completion of the Buddhist Mantra,
Her immense, glorious Buddha Body started to radiate a blinding Buddha's light. The luminescence did not emanate from its exterior but seemed to surge from within, creating the impression that her Buddha Body was on the verge of an explosion!
From the crown of the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva's head, an innumerable host of Buddha's lights radiated outwards, instantly spanning immeasurable distances, piercing the very firmament, and reaching into the boundless cosmic expanse!
This unusual display by the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva caught the Demon Lords and Generals of the Profound Yin Demon Sect, positioned thousands of miles away, completely off guard.
The Soul Shifting Buddha Lord uttered with an awkward tone:
"With Junior Brother Tianyan's Celestial Eye Sacred Technique, amplified considerably by the influence of the Holy Son Gang Bone's Celestial Monarch's Power, it now wields a sliver of the Power of Laws, capable of inducing rapid aging in any target. This Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva's capabilities are indeed noteworthy, but she is by no means a match for the current Junior Brother Tianyan; her Buddha Bone and Buddha Soul are undoubtedly doomed."
"However, this maneuver by the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva appears rather perplexing! Why would such potent Buddha's light be directed towards the empty sky?"
Upon hearing this, numerous Demon Lords exchanged bewildered glances, their heads shaking slightly.
Only the First Demon Lord, Fan Yu, seemed to grasp a flicker of understanding. His brow furrowed, and his gaze narrowed as he remotely surveyed the distant Celestial Eye Demon Lord. He spoke, "Soul Shifter, instruct Tianyan to withdraw! This Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva must have lost her mind; she actually intends to provoke a Celestial Tribulation, triggering her Great Accomplishment Buddha Tribulation mid-battle!"
"What? This anomalous Buddha's light signifies the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva is about to trigger a Great Accomplishment Buddha Tribulation?"
"Is she not insane? The Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva just had an arm severed by Senior Brother Tianyan's attack, and her Glazed Demon-Slaying Pestle has also lost most of its potency. To initiate a Celestial Tribulation in such a weakened state is akin to inviting death!"
"Haha, they always claimed the Great Success Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism were nothing but fanatics devoted to Buddha; now it seems to be true! Yet, the Great Success Yu Ming Bodhisattva is likely unaware that our First Saint Master has already discerned her intentions!"
All the Demon Lords immediately shook their heads, their chuckles echoing as they engaged in further discussion. In their collective view, initiating a Celestial Tribulation during a fierce combat, with the intent of mutual annihilation against the adversary, was clearly an act of madness. However, given that the First Demon Lord had foreseen it, her prospects for success were deemed negligible.
