Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant Chapter 2533: 247: Seeking Help
Previously on Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant...
“Who would have thought that the Buddha Lord of the grand Glazed Buddha Realm is truly someone else’s Incarnation…”
“Tianyin, can't you truly discern it?”
Dark green Qi saturated the void, as the Dharma Realm's Sky Dome shattered fragment by fragment, heralding the world's impending doom.
Tianshang Buddha Lord hovered in mid-air, his face grave, brows tightly knit in an unusual display.
A wild urge welled up within him, pushing him to cast aside all caution and halt True Man Taiyi by force.
Yet rationality swiftly yanked him back from that fleeting madness, reminding him of far graver concerns. His eyes scanned the Dharma Realm's expanse, his countenance growing even stormier.
With his sharp sight, he easily spotted how the poisonous blight had burrowed deep into the Dharma Realm's core.
Without swift action to purge it, the grand scheme to conquer the whole Realm Sea would crumble, and even the Reclining Buddha Dharma Realm itself might vanish forever.
“That Plague Demon…”
Thinking of the pink rabbit, a fierce chill sparked in Tianshang Buddha Lord’s gaze.
But it swiftly morphed into helpless frustration.
Had he secured that Plague Demon from Wang Ba, cleansing the Dharma Realm's toxic plague would have been effortless. This was precisely why he'd clung to keeping True Man Taiyi alive before.
It stemmed from dread of True Man Taiyi's knack for chaotic surprises, and the Plague Demon he held.
A poison so scarce across the Realm Sea had shockingly endangered the three great Dharma Realms, exceeding all forecasts and demanding utmost caution.
Regrettably, he'd believed his scheme flawless, poised to capture True Man Taiyi, unaware he and the Glazed Buddha Realm's Buddha Lord were one essence split in two, linked inseparably, immune to petty causality cuts.
Time pressed mercilessly, no space for laments.
He observed the Dharma Realm showing early cracks of disintegration.
Tianshang Buddha Lord glanced down at the surviving monks and Buddhist devotees on the ground, untouched by the shockwaves from his clash with True Man Taiyi, his look turning somewhat mournful.
Wasting no moment, a mere thought lifted countless figures skyward from below, vanishing sequentially.
Still, regret flickered across his features.
Post this fierce battle, the Buddha Seeds he'd laboriously gathered for the Supreme True Buddha were mostly wasted, with just a handful of advanced realm monks enduring the blasts.
Buddhist followers could be replenished over time, but those Buddha Seeds rich in Buddha nature had been forged painstakingly from converts he'd toiled to claim.
He'd marked them as prime vessels to spread the Supreme True Buddha's doctrine ahead, now squandered pointlessly.
“Thankfully, I'd stashed some reserves earlier.”
With that, his eyes shifted to another Established Buddhism Realm domain.
Unlike the Reclining Buddha Dharma Realm, this Established Buddhism Realm sprawled immensely, stacked with spirit materials, Elixirs, Dao Treasures, and more...
It acted as a vast storehouse, where a few monks meditated cross-legged, eyes shut in apparent slumber, blind to outer turmoil.
If Wang Ba were here, he'd spot an all-too-familiar face—Shen Fu.
“At least a few seeds remain safe…”
Beholding these forms, Tianshang Buddha Lord’s tension eased a touch.
These were prime talents he cherished, so during Lotus Buddha Country picks, he'd slotted them specially into the Established Buddhism Realm for future nurturing.
Who knew this offhand choice would spare them now.
The monks and followers shifted from Reclining Buddha Dharma Realm were promptly settled here by him.
In moments, all relocated seamlessly.
Then, refusing to tarry amid the Dharma Realm's swift breakdown, choked with dark green Qi.
He darted away, materializing beyond the Dharma Realm.
His expression soured instantly.
Now, the colossal Reclining Buddha, Seated Buddha, and Standing Buddha statues floating in the void were all cloaked in dark green Qi.
The Reclining Buddha suffered worst of all.
Its Golden Body surface and Buddha light lay smothered under dark green toxic Qi.
Even the Reclining Buddha’s eyes cracked open slightly, pupils tainted with that eerie green.
As if gripped by a fatal affliction.
With all three Dharma Realms poisoned alike, the encircling transparent barrier flickered, on the verge of shattering...
Sensing peril, thunderous booms rolled through the Realm Sea Void, prowling beyond the three Dharma Realms.
Like a predator scenting blood, poised to pounce anytime!
This sight sent chills through Tianshang Buddha Lord.
Without pause, a single thought summoned nine figures at his side.
These nine, robed as monks of diverse builds—plump or lean—were past Buddha Lords.
All nine swathed in dark green Qi, three worst off, toxin gnawing to the marrow.
At this, Tianshang Buddha Lord acted decisively, weaving hand seals and intoning nonstop.
The next breath, he parted his lips, expelling ten multicolored Shariputras.
They unleashed radiant Buddha light in spectrum shades, bathing the nine figures.
The nine Buddha Lords joined in, reciting scriptures in unison.
Buddha light blazed forth, chants resounded.
From the nine bodies, dark green plague Qi slowly seeped out under the glow, rising like wisps of vapor.
