Capítulo 2558: Chapter 255: The Source_2
Even though the Tianshang Buddha Lord possesses great power, he has fused himself into the Three Great Realms, with every Buddha citizen sacrificed already. Over half of the Buddha Seeds fell into Xiahou Demon's grasp too. Devoid of fresh recruits, no matter the might of this Supreme True Buddha, short-term growth proves challenging. Such a gap offers us vital space to advance.
He held back one key point: without backup, these Supreme True Buddhas would inevitably turn their eyes to the cultivators in the Sea of Chaos Realm.
This opened a door for him.
He might slip into the Chaotic Sea via the Realm Sea Whirlpool, trail those monks heading into the Sea of Chaos to recruit forces, then exit, mirroring the earlier events.
Given his present power, barring a personal intervention from Tianshang Buddha Lord, he stood a solid shot at guiding the group out safely.
Of course, risks abound—and they're substantial—but this remains a viable route to save the Little Cang World.
True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, and Kong Zen traded looks upon Wang Ba's statement, their faces showing varied reactions.
True Man Gai cast a glance at the impassive Bai Lechan regarding the Cloud Sky Realm, let out a quiet sigh, mulled it over briefly while scanning the group, then spoke gravely without delay:
“Taoist Friend Taiyi must realize our Three Great Realms link to this Duanhai Cliff. Detaching all Three Great Realms won't prove simple.”
His statement already endorsed Wang Ba's approach.
Wang Ba reflected momentarily; he'd only shifted the Little Cang World previously, remaining unfamiliar with the Four Great Realms' dynamics, uncertain if severing the tie was feasible.
Grasping his intent, Kong Zen proposed:
“Why don't we head there and inspect it right away?”
All agreed promptly at his words.
True Man Gai hated parting from his homeland and loathed forsaking the Cloud Sky Realm's prospects even more, yet the Supreme True Buddha's overwhelming force left fleeing as the sole option. Better to endure without Chaos Origin Substance than face doom here.
Wasting no time, the group sped toward Duanhai Cliff.
Duanhai Cliff lay close to the Four Great Realms; soon, they halted amid the void.
From afar, the void stretched endlessly, bottomless.
Yet drawing near revealed an immense wall extending boundlessly in all directions ahead of them.
The bald man Jiao, beholding Duanhai Cliff initially, blurted in awe:
“Is this the famed Duanhai Cliff? Truly endless in scope? How does such a marvel stand within the Realm Sea?”
True Man Gai and Heavenly Monarch Chao gazed at the towering wall with mixed feelings.
As lords of their realms in the Four Great Realms, they understood the Duanhai Cliff propped up their current locale. Now forced to abandon it, their emotions churned deeply.
Wang Ba, observing the wall now, sensed a surging impulse within.
He had once urged the others to breach this Duanhai Cliff.
But breaching it presently clashed with their dire straits.
Chiefly since Tianshang Buddha Lord might assault anytime; exhausting their power to open it would doom them utterly.
Balancing the scales, despite the burning urge, he reined in his desires.
He steadied his racing heart.
Probing the Duanhai Cliff nearby, he spotted enigmatic golden glyphs wriggling like tadpoles over its surface.
Despite his deep grasp of Buddhist rules, the wall struck him as utterly inscrutable, a celestial tome beyond reach.
The Buddhist principles embedded in this Duanhai Cliff proved vastly intricate and profoundly arcane.
Noticing the group's fixation on the wall, the bald man Jiao queried:
“Found a solution yet? Any way to detach the Three Great Realms?”
Wang Ba gave a faint headshake and replied:
“To sever the Four Great Realms from Duanhai Cliff, we need to locate their binding link first. Let's divide and search.”
The others assented.
Lady Hua softly aided True Man Gai as they veered one way, the rest scattering apart.
Wang Ba and Kong Zen lingered alone.
“Are you truly restraining yourself?”
Kong Zen eyed Wang Ba, detecting his inner turmoil, his surprise plain.
Wang Ba kept a serene face, revealing his honest feelings to Kong Zen:
“What other choice is there?”
“To open the Immortal Pass demands both time and manpower, while the Little Cang World beyond it needs time to arrive here as well… Yet time remains the most precious resource we lack right now!”
“The arrival of Tianshang Buddha Lord is unpredictable. Launching the Immortal Pass at this juncture stakes the Four Great Realms' security against the Glazed Buddha Realm’s complete monk forces and the lives of every cultivator in Zhang’s Ruins…”
“Success would rescue Little Cang World, but failure condemns all to a shared grave!”
“However, as long as we hold our ground, a shot at overcoming Tianshang endures, slim though it might be.”
“I’m ready to take this risk—are you?”
His eyes fixed on Kong Zen in front of him, and beneath that steady gaze, Kong Zen unusually stayed quiet.
Having finished his words, Wang Ba went silent, gazing silently at the Duanhai Cliff ahead. With a mental command, he retrieved the True Void Staff from Kong Zen and summoned the six Magic Wands in unison.
