Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant Chapter 2521: 242: Banished Immortal (Part 4)
Previously on Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant...
While speaking, he lifted his hand once more and pointed. Another Geng Metal Sword Light rocketed into the sky, bursting from the Lotus Buddha Country before shaping into a Dragon Head Nail locked onto Tianshang Buddha Lord!
However, this time the second Dragon Head Nail hovered just beyond Tianshang Buddha Lord’s Golden Body.
Though it unleashed its full might to bore through, a mighty barrier always repelled it.
‘Bai Lechan’’s expression shifted faintly, his poise cracking:
“How can this be? You’re only at Human Immortal Fourth Layer, and my Cultivation Base hasn’t fully recovered…”
Tianshang Buddha Lord shook his head faintly, a hint of disappointment showing:
“You’re barely noteworthy, even in the Second Realm Sea.”
From behind Tianshang Buddha Lord, three monk phantoms emerged silently from the Reclining Buddha.
These three monk phantoms varied in look, yet their auras rivaled Tianshang Buddha Lord’s.
They now sat or stood, palms lifted in smiles, offering slight nods to the stunned ‘Bai Lechan’.
Tianshang Buddha Lord’s serene voice then flooded ‘Bai Lechan’’s ears like a rushing river:
“From the moment the True Buddha founded this place, every Buddha Lord has toiled endlessly, forgoing Cultivation Ascension, casting aside all, lurking in the Dharma Realm—to build a genuine Pure Land of Extreme Joy in this Realm Sea, aiding every being here… How could immortals from The Heavens grasp our determination?”
“How could you fathom true great compassion and great perseverance?”
At that instant, as cultivators outside the Buddha Kingdom stared up at the four Buddha phantoms led by Tianshang Buddha Lord, panic seized them and their faces paled.
Beneath their stunned gazes, the four Buddhas thrust out their palms in unison.
Though Bai Lechan kept attacking relentlessly, the Geng Metal Sword Light failed to breach the Lotus Buddha Country anymore.
The four Mahayanas saw it and refused to slack off, unleashing their own strikes.
Yet, empowered jointly by Tianshang Buddha Lord and the three other Buddha Lords, the Lotus Buddha Country stood impregnable and unyielding.
Amid the enraged and shocked stares from ‘Bai Lechan’, True Man Gai, and the others, the Lotus Buddha Country sealed shut once again, slowly.
Compared to earlier, though, its pull on the Mahayanas was now far more intense!
“What are they planning?”
The bald man couldn’t hold back his furious outburst.
The might displayed by Tianshang Buddha Lord and those three past Buddha Lords far surpassed their wildest guesses, and they struggled to believe such entities would strive so hard just for their sake.
True Man Gai’s face was grim, but his eyes remained glued to Tianshang Buddha Lord as he rumbled deeply: “If he truly commanded this power, he wouldn’t trouble himself so much to seize us.”
“He must have a deadly weakness driving all this effort…”
“But what’s that weakness?”
Heavenly Monarch Chao couldn’t resist asking after hearing that.
Lady Hua snapped angrily instead:
“Enough chatter! The longer we stay, the quicker this lotus refines us! What do we do now?”
True Man Gai paused briefly, then glanced at ‘Bai Lechan’.
Sensing their stares, ‘Bai Lechan’’s face twisted with rare grimness, and he muttered swiftly:
“I’ve only just entered Human Immortal First Layer. The only way I’m matching him is by drawing on past life techniques—it’s temporary at best…”
“So no way out?”
Heavenly Monarch Chao and Lady Hua held back due to their connections, but the bald man Jiao spoke freely and demanded right away.
Bai Lechan’s face grew even uglier, yet he nodded all the same.
Though pride stung, survival trumped all.
“Don’t panic! We’ve still got a spark of hope!”
True Man Gai noted even ‘Bai Lechan’’s impotence, a flash of subtle letdown in his eyes, but he spoke up immediately.
Heavenly Monarch Chao and the rest instinctively turned to him.
True Man Gai stressed each word:
“Xiahou Demon!”
“He’s likely fled ahead. If we endure, a pincer attack from inside and out might succeed…”
As he spoke,
A pale golden sword light suddenly streaked from the distant void!
“Hmm?”
Inside and outside the Buddha Kingdom alike, Tianshang Buddha Lord, True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, and the others all spotted this sword light—first stunned, then faces changing!
“That’s…”
A mix of thrill and concern lit Heavenly Monarch Chao’s eyes!
A flicker of doubt crossed Tianshang Buddha Lord’s gaze:
“I thought I had already…”
The instant shock hit everyone’s minds!
A blue-robed figure abruptly appeared before the five Mahayanas inside the Buddha Kingdom!
A crisp voice rang simultaneously in the five’s ears!
“Everyone, don’t resist!”
Before the words fully faded,
The entire Buddha Kingdom—even the Reclining Buddha’s surroundings—plunged into utter darkness at once!
