Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely Chapter 2061 - 1091: The Final Calamity Arrives (Part 3)

However, Tao Yu observed that the target of this formidable palm strike was neither himself nor the trio who were currently proving the Dao!

"In this world, I am the one and only Supreme True Buddha."

The Demon Buddha, with a smile that hinted at hidden motives, launched an astonishing assault upon the Bodhi Pure Land using his palm!

The Ancient Buddha Bodhi, whose body bore agonizing sword scars from Tao Yu’s earlier attack, suddenly widened his eyes in shock as his Golden Body appeared to be succumbing to decay.

"It’s you!"

Fear and disbelief filled the eyes of the Ancient Buddha Bodhi, but in the very next moment, both his Pure Land and his very being were consumed by that overwhelming Buddha Palm!

Even though the Ancient Buddha Bodhi had sustained injuries from Tao Yu, for an Ancient One to be so helplessly annihilated, along with his Pure Land, by a single palm strike that devoured essence and billions of Buddhas, such a feat instantly halted all actions among the other shore members who were locked in combat or confrontation!

The seemingly erratic Fu Huang suddenly regained his composure, his gaze fixed coldly on the encroaching Buddha Hand, and he spoke with an icy tone,

"Lingshan Buddha..."

In that critical moment, Tao Yu experienced a surge of profound clarity.

Fu Huang had been under the control of Amitabha!

Amitabha himself remained absent, existing in a state of detached emptiness, orchestrating Fu Huang’s actions to sow discord.

Now, the true nature of the crisis became apparent!

Buddha!

The only two Dao Fruits in existence within the current world!

Although for those few Tianyi who were privy to the Heavenly Court’s great battle, it was understood that Buddha seemed to be experiencing certain difficulties, transcending and encountering unforeseen developments, indicating not a complete Dao Fruit.

Yet, it remained an existence that surpassed the shore!

During the chaotic era of the Demon Buddha, this entity had been single-handedly suppressed and sealed!

Previously, when the Daoist Ancestor made a slight intervention, easing the difficulty of reaching the shore, it clearly demonstrated the terrifying influence wielded at this level.

Unexpectedly, the Buddha, who was supposed to be grappling with issues, had now transformed into the Demon Buddha, swiftly devouring the Ancient Buddha Bodhi.

Even for an entity at the shore like the Demon Buddha, he was already a mere illusion before a flawed Dao Fruit like Buddha!

This sudden and unforeseen turn of events instilled a palpable terror in all Tianyi who recognized the gravity of the situation.

The Xuantian Sect trembled, and the Time Blade forcibly manifested into the form of the Heavenly Emperor.

He had always been an ally to Tao Yu, merely awaiting the opportune moment to reveal himself.

"Sir, what course of action should we take now?"

The Heavenly Emperor, understanding Tao Yu’s paramount status, recognized that only Tao Yu possessed the potential to contend with the might of a Dao Fruit!

"The power of a Dao Fruit is beyond comprehension. For Buddha to transform into the Demon Buddha and still require the devouring of Bodhi signifies that He still faces significant challenges. If no unforeseen factors intervene, the Daoist Venerable is likely occupied with the Abyss, only capable of minor interference, while Buddha has exploited the Power of the Abyss, setting his schemes in motion during the True Martial’s moment of proving the Dao and the Daoist Venerable’s exertion of power..."

Tao Yu, adopting an objective perspective, calmly analyzed the unfolding events.

The Daoist Venerable’s cultivation realm was undoubtedly superior to Buddha’s, but the current predicament was that the Daoist Venerable had to consider the grander scheme, whereas Buddha was ushering in an internal threat, holding the Daoist Venerable back during the Demon Buddha’s chaotic period, ultimately replacing the Demon Buddha and consuming Bodhi!

Now, the intense struggle between these two Dao Fruits consumed the majority of their energies!

Buddha cleverly utilized his connection with the Demon Buddha to initiate his internal subversion!

Even entities at the shore, such as the Demon Buddha and Bodhi, found themselves nearly incapable of resisting Buddha’s formidable power!

"The Demon Buddha was indeed Buddha’s disciple; this turn of events is truly unexpected..."

Through this realization, Tao Yu gained a comprehensive understanding of the intricate situation.

It was highly probable that the Demon Buddha had long ceased to possess any independent will, having fallen entirely under Buddha’s control!

The deliberate act of guiding himself into this world was intended to provoke greater chaos, thereby diverting the Daoist Venerable’s focus.

The Daoist Venerable’s drastic reduction in the difficulty of reaching the shore was likely a premonition of this impending issue, an attempt to foster the emergence of more shores to counter Buddha.

However, due to the prior engagement among the Tianyi and Tao Yu’s decisive strike against Bodhi, the current circumstances had come to pass...

"All things in the world, only I am the Supreme True Buddha."

After assimilating the Bodhi Pure Land, the ’Demon Buddha’ experienced a significant surge in power, instantly forging a connection with the Nine Nether, thereby prematurely initiating the ultimate calamity.

His supreme power seemed to pierce even the Nine Nether, establishing a link between the Nine Nether and the Abyss, and commencing a refinement process utilizing the Power of the Abyss.

Although a discernible, greater power was attempting to thwart this destructive progression.

Yet, it was evident that destruction had always been a far simpler endeavor than preservation, especially when the external chaos had already reached abyssal proportions!

At this moment, the Daoist Venerable stood like a colossal dam, its power immense, holding back the surging flood from the outside.

In contrast, Buddha acted as an excavator, no match for the dam, yet diligently striving to create openings everywhere.

Once sufficient passages were carved, the flood's inherent might could overwhelm the dam, causing a catastrophic breach!

"This is not good!"

"We must stop him immediately!"

The Xuanming Ghost Emperor and Seven Kills Taoist, perceiving the shifting dynamics within the Nine Nether, experienced a drastic change in their expressions.

Curiously, the Nine Chaos Heavenly Venerable, usually erratic, now displayed a sense of glee, seemingly welcoming the Demon Buddha's embrace.

"The final tribulation is an intrinsic part of the world's grand operational cycle; even united, it would be challenging to thwart. If left unchecked, He will indeed consume everything..."

It was originally destined that after the conclusion of the final tribulation, Yuanshi Tianzun would forge a new world. This was fate.

However, should this aberrant 'Demon Buddha' be permitted to persist and devour all existence, there would be no renewal. At that point, perhaps even the Daoist Venerable would be powerless to stop Him!

"All of you aid my Human Dao Dynasty in stabilizing the world; I shall confront him in the Nine Nether."

Witnessing the Demon Buddha engulfing the Nine Nether, Tao Yu could no longer remain passive.

While he could disregard the current world's Dao Fruit, the Nine Nether was another matter entirely!

The Human Dao Dynasty blazed with brilliance, supporting both the Human Realm and the Nine Heavens, resisting the encroachment of the Nine Nether tainted with the Power of the Abyss.

Acknowledging Tao Yu's declaration, numerous 'shores' retreated into the Human Dao Dynasty, each employing their unique abilities to purchase precious time.

They understood Tao Yu hailed from beyond their realm, and faced with this chaotic predicament, he appeared to be the only one with a potential solution!

Though they could not conceive of any method to resolve the deadlock, this was the only course of action available to them...

As they watched Tao Yu venture alone into the treacherous Nine Nether!

"Are you insane? Heading in at a time like this?"

The Xuanming Ghost Emperor, attempting to flee the Nine Nether himself, could not help but exclaim upon observing Tao Yu's actions.

Was he intending to become sustenance to empower the enemy?

Allowing the Devourer of Shores to continue its rampage, how could this be tolerated?

The Nine Nether had always been inherently hostile to outsiders, and now with a more corrupted aura infusing it, even natives like themselves could not endure and were forced to seek escape.

To engage in battle on the adversary's home ground was tantamount to courting death!

In their estimation, maintaining the Human Dao Dynasty's current stand against the Nine Nether, or severing the connection between the two realms to ensure mutual survival, would have been far superior strategies!

"Silence..."

Upon entering the Nine Nether, Tao Yu gestured dismissively. Even the malevolent demons of the Nine Nether were brought under his command, flung into his Human Dao Dynasty with a mere flick of his wrist.

Then, to the astonished bewilderment of all observers, the Nine Nether Will, which had been gleefully embracing the Demon Buddha, abruptly halted its advance. It shoved the Demon Buddha aside and turned its attention, ominously, towards Tao Yu...
