Wang Ba enlightened the senior 'Bu Gui' about memory loss from myriad beings' thoughts eroding his Ghost Immortal path. Pleading to release trapped cultivators' True Spirits, Wang Ba faced refusal, as 'Bu Gui' deemed it a fair trade for their quasi-immortality. Rallying Mahayana experts to the Realm Sea void, they discovered the Supreme True Buddha had swiftly departed, sparking hopeful realizations among them.

“Just as Taoist Friend Taiyi mentioned, the three major Dharma Realms truly appear to have issues!”

“Hold on, allow me to test it first!”

Wang Ba declared.

Without any delay, the four staves representing earth, fire, water, and wind emerged from his Primordial Spirit, abruptly thrusting into the nearby void.

Each of the four staves occupied one direction, connected seamlessly. Centered on these staves, a huge pillar of four-hued light rapidly expanded outward.

This light pillar rapidly stretched in every direction…

Right then, a startling transformation took place!

The expanding four-colored light pillar abruptly revealed a gigantic Buddha’s Hand resembling a mountain, swiftly growing larger and hurtling directly toward Wang Ba!

Behind that Buddha’s Hand stood a recognizable elderly monk, his brows knitting together as he cast a chilly look and stretched out a shriveled hand:

“You show remarkable boldness by venturing here?”

The faces of True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, and Kong Zen abruptly shifted at that instant.

Wang Ba’s features also grew tense, yet his mind swiftly steadied itself!

Tianshang Buddha had intervened personally with a covert strike but refrained from deploying the three Dharma Realms right away. This proved that Wang Ba’s plague tactic had successfully impacted those realms, and they were likely now suffering from the plague’s corrosion!

Yet prior to completing his reflections, Tianshang Buddha’s palm assault arrived with overwhelming ferocity and abruptness. During this ambush, True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, and Kong Zen failed to respond promptly, leaving even Wang Ba to merely observe the approaching palm. Only at the final second did he defend with the Land-Parting Staff.

“Boom!”

The palm evidently hit the glow of the Land-Parting Staff, but an invisible power descended upon Wang Ba’s forehead!

In that moment, past recollections surged back.

Wang Ba suddenly sensed detachment from his entire environment, with everything around plunging into quiet stillness.

This sensation felt extremely familiar.

“True Spirit…he’s struck my True Spirit out once more!”

Understanding flashed through Wang Ba’s thoughts, but he stayed composed.

Meanwhile, Tianshang Buddha, fresh from his successful ambush, hadn’t time to display delight when a dragon silhouette burst from Wang Ba’s forehead. Far from dying, it appeared completely unharmed, filling him with astonishment.

True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, and their companions finally sprang into action then, eyes filled with frost, unleashing their full might against Tianshang Buddha.

Though Wang Ba’s True Spirit got briefly expelled, it soon rejoined his body without any harm.

And precisely then, he unleashed the Chaos Green Fox from his sleeve.

True Man Gai, who had turned into sword-light, shouted with thrill:

“Hurry! Without the three Dharma Realms present, this is our chance to take him down!”

No sooner had he spoken than Tianshang Buddha’s palm hit him, forcing him out of the sword-light.

Tianshang Buddha kept his grave expression, slamming True Man Gai with one palm before thrusting out yet another!

Each blow lacked flashy displays, yet every action carried immense depth and weight, masterfully blending cultivation and Buddhist principles!

But prior to this palm landing, the Chaos Green Fox traversed the void, its nine tails acting like keen blades that darted toward Tianshang Buddha, while purplish-black divine radiance gathered in its maw.

Tianshang Buddha disregarded True Man Gai somewhat, yet upon spotting the Chaos Green Fox, fear flickered across his countenance.

Forming a seal with one hand, he conjured a vast barrier from the rules to shield himself.

However, the Chaos Green Fox wielded chaos rules directly, throwing the space’s earth, fire, water, and wind into turmoil.

The barrier shattered right away!

As it collapsed, Heavenly Monarch Chao barreled forward alongside the Ten Thousand Headed Fierce Lion, petals swirling everywhere, and amid those petals, both Heavenly Monarch Chao and the Ten Thousand Headed Fierce Lion gained tremendous velocity!

The individual called Jiao exposed his original form anew and promptly invoked his innate Divine Ability, as a colossal draconic illusion parted its enormous jaws, lunging to devour Tianshang Buddha!

Kong Zen wore a somewhat grave look, gripping the True Void Staff in one hand while sealing with the other, bearing down upon Tianshang Buddha.

In this pivotal moment, Tianshang Buddha scanned the area, his face growing somber, and at last, he ceased restraining himself.

Instantly, he summoned his thousand heads and thousand arms Dharma Aspect.

A colossal form towering like a mountain, emanating awe-inspiring majesty, thousands of heads showing faces of joy, bliss, fury, wrath, and madness, while a thousand hands shaped Dharma Seals, some calling forth Buddhist relics like Ruyi, rice bowl, Vajra Pestle, treasure tower, and countless others.

Surrounded by the Chaos Green Fox and five Mahayanas all at once, he stayed utterly composed, standing firm against those Mahayanas.

In that instant, Buddhist treasures, Divine Skills, spells, rules, and Dao Domains... exploded into collision with a deafening boom!

The Realm Sea blazed with brilliance akin to noonday sun!

The void churned and splintered, ravaged as by a howling gale!

Moments later, True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, Lady Hua, the man named Jiao, Kong Zen, and the Chaos Green Fox were all blasted backward from the radiance.

Beneath that glow, Tianshang Buddha's grand Dharma Aspect of thousand heads and thousand arms stood revealed.

With palms pressed together before him, golden radiance poured from the Buddha's body, his bearing merciful, though his presence surged with boundless, irresistible might.

Just then, the Realm Sea stirred in response, endless thunderclaps gradually gathering.

Yet before Tianshang Buddha could even breathe a sigh of relief, dread seized his heart, an unprecedented peril dawning without warning!

Refusing to waver, he whipped his gaze instinctively toward one spot.

Off in the distance, Wang Ba had slipped far away unnoticed, beholding the Mahayanas' foreseen downfall. Stern-faced but serene, his hands folded ahead mirroring Tianshang Buddha's own.

Tianshang Buddha's features iced over in an instant. His silhouette blurred, weaving past the others to charge straight at Wang Ba!

As Tianshang Buddha bore down, Wang Ba held steady, fingers flying through seals.

Catching sight of Wang Ba's seals, Tianshang Buddha's core shuddered, eyes flaring wide!

At long last, he perceived the anomaly.

His vision darted behind Wang Ba.

The four staves of earth, fire, water, and wind he had summoned before lingered suspended in the emptiness behind Wang Ba, wholly untouched by the prior clash.

Among the crossing pillars of light, they faintly traced an Array.

No! Not an Array, but… a gateway!

The very next breath, through Tianshang Buddha's sharpened sight, a hand of inconceivable immensity emerged from the portal, lunging with savage grip across boundless expanses!!
