Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1777 - 413: Tuotuo’s Shock—Who Is Chen 94?
Previously on Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!...
With a flourish, Peng Yingyu unleashed his Great Vajra Compassion Palm! A seemingly simple strike, yet it concealed immense Buddha Power, Buddhist compassion, and mercy that transcended all beings.
Upon witnessing Peng Yingyu's palm strike, Treasure Elephant Army Commander Boluo Timur's expression shifted. This particular palm contained a Buddha Power even he found difficult to dismiss.
With a decisive motion, the Treasure Elephant Army Commander raised his hand, brandishing the long spear he held. Instantly, he unleashed the fearsome Thunder Attribute Gang Qi coursing through his body.
"Thunder Strike Spear!"
Boluo Timur struck, his spear piercing the sky, imbued with the unmatched might of thunder as it hurtled towards Peng Yingyu.
Simultaneously, two distinct Martial God Spaces materialized beside them. Peng Yingyu was enveloped by a golden Buddha Realm, where innumerable phantom novice monks softly chanted scriptures.
Within this resplendent Martial God Space, Peng Yingyu stood as the sole True Buddha, a domain exclusively his.
[Buddha Country in the Palm]
Here, he reigned as the ultimate True Buddha, a testament to Great Success within Small Mahayana Buddhism.
The world's Buddhist teachings are bifurcated: Mahayana and Small Mahayana. In this era, Shaolin exemplifies the Exoteric Sect, while the Fan Monk Basinba Lineage, associated with the Daqian Royal Family, represents the Esoteric Sect.
Peng Yingyu, however, aligns with a different path—Small Mahayana Buddhism.
What distinguishes Mahayana Buddhism from Small Mahayana Buddhism?
Simply put, Mahayana Buddhism venerates the Buddha and offers devotion to Buddhist Sect Elders.
Conversely, the ultimate aim of Small Mahayana Buddhism is self-enlightenment, to ascend to the state of Buddha!
Due to the exceedingly high prerequisites for practicing Small Mahayana Buddhism, its propagation has been limited in this world, with a staggering ninety-nine point nine-nine percent of individuals lacking the capacity for its cultivation.
Mahayana Dharma, in contrast, guides followers to recite scriptures and seek blessings for their next life, imposing no personal limitations.
Whether of royal lineage or common birth, all can embrace Buddha Tathagata, facilitating rapid expansion, broader reach, and greater influence.
This has led to the proliferation of temples.
Nevertheless, the growth of Small Mahayana Buddhism has not been without its obstacles. Beyond a select few disciples, the only truly outstanding figure is the Laughing Buddha, Peng Yingyu.
He has yet to find a successor. His disciples, such as Double Saber Zhao Pusheng and Ding Pulong, have embraced his martial arts but not fully committed to monastic life under the Small Mahayana teachings. In essence, they resemble secular disciples akin to those from Shaolin.
At this precise moment, as Peng Yingyu executed his palm strike, the Buddha Country Domain manifested around him. Thousands of novice monks chanted in unison, lending him the aura of a genuine Buddha.
Meanwhile, Boluo Timur made a sweeping gesture, conjuring a Thunder Strike Spear into his grasp.
The spear was wreathed in formidable Thunder Power, emanating its characteristic terrifying aura. Concealed behind him, a thunderous domain materialized.
Within a ten-zhang radius, the air thrummed with the resonant sound of thunderstorms. Flashes of lightning illuminated the scene, a majestic and apocalyptic spectacle!
With that, both combatants summoned their Martial God Domains. One unleashed boundless compassion with a palm strike, while the other wielded a spear crackling with thunderous might.
A deafening crash echoed, kicking up a storm of dust that instantly obscured all vision.
Amidst the swirling dust, only the sounds of earth-shattering impacts could be discerned. Fearful onlookers watched the epicenter, the concussive force of the explosion preventing anyone from approaching within dozens of zhang.
CRASH!
Through an unknown number of exchanges within the dust-laden void, the tempest finally subsided. As the space cleared, revealing its true state once more, the onlookers beheld a colossal ravine gouged into the earth where the confrontation occurred. The impact zone was scorched black, as if seared by lightning.
The immense chasm appeared to cleave the mountaintop asunder, a terrifying testament to their power.
As the two combatants disengaged, they regarded each other with caution. Although Boluo Timur had gained a slight advantage in the initial clash, Peng Yingyu's tenacious resistance gave Boluo Timur pause. He recognized that fully engaging Peng Yingyu would necessitate risking his own martial arts.
Therefore, Boluo Timur strategically withdrew his full offensive at the opportune moment.
Peng Yingyu regarded Boluo Timur, remaining silent as he observed the man. Quietly, he stated, "Boluo, the situation has escalated to this point. You are incapable of completely eradicating my Zoroastrian Sect, nor can you apprehend our Little Ming King. In this engagement, your strategic goals have already been unmet. Therefore, why persist and incur further losses?"
Boluo, upon hearing this, met Peng Yingyu's gaze and chuckled, "Hehe, Monk Peng, it appears you misunderstand the workings of the imperial court."
Peng Yingyu looked back at him, inquiring, "In what way do I not understand the court?"
Boluo Timur let out another chuckle, "Hehe, the court does not solely examine the outcomes; they also scrutinize the process. Today, with our three main armies dispatched to assault Bright Peak, whether your Zoroastrian Sect can be utterly annihilated, I cannot say. However, the number of our casualties must undoubtedly meet the designated quota."
"Casualty quota?"
Monk Peng's brow furrowed, his expression darkening. "Must it truly come to this?"
Boluo Timur responded, "Indeed. As you Han people say, 'Where there is no merit, there must be hard work.' The merit lies in the complete destruction of your Zoroastrian Sect and the live capture of the Little Ming King."
"And for the hard work, even if we fail to seize Bright Peak or lay hands on your Little Ming King, I must still guarantee the demanded number of casualties for the court. This way, the court acknowledges our strenuous efforts, and we shall not face repercussions. Do you comprehend?"
"Thus, Monk Peng, continue fighting. We shall not cease until the required number of individuals has fallen!"
