There were 3,000 Middle Worlds attached to the main plane of the Journey to the West. They surrounded each other and formed the huge Journey to the West.
Tathagata had once wandered through the 3,000 Middle Worlds and comprehended the cycle of the Heavenly Way. He had even set up countless means before he comprehended the Three Thousand Worlds of Buddhism.
When the Divine Power was used, it could mobilize the power of the 3,000 Middle Worlds and transform them into the projection of the 3,000 Middle Worlds. It was between reality and illusion, and it suppressed everything with endless power. Even time and space had to stop at this moment.
The projection of the 3,000 Middle Worlds stacked layer by layer, and its power continued to increase. In the end, it stacked into an extremely real Middle World. Although it was not completely stable, it was not much different from a real universe.
With a wave of his hand, a universe descended into the Heaven Realm. This was a Divine Power. When the Three Thousand Worlds of Buddhism appeared, even the Jade Emperor and Taishang Laojun, who were originally standing in the Lingxiao Palace, could not help but change their expressions. It seemed that this was the first time they had seen Tathagata's Divine Power.
The immortals and gods in the Heaven Realm could not help but show reverence for Tathagata Buddha, who was now above the universe. Some of them even kept guessing in their hearts.
Even Tathagata Buddha, who could suppress the Three Realms with a flip of his hand, had submitted to the Heavenly Court. How powerful would the Jade Emperor, who had sat on the throne of the Three Realms for countless years, be?
As the Three Thousand Worlds of Buddhism turned into a real Middle World, Sun Wukong, who was still struggling, suddenly stopped. Although he was strong, he was not strong enough to contend with a near-real Middle World. The power of the entire universe suppressed him, so that even his Primordial Spirit could not escape!
"Devil Monkey, follow me back to the Spirit Mountain. Recite the scriptures and worship Buddha every day. Wash away all the impurities and demonic aura. In the future, you might have a chance to become a Buddha!"
The Devil Monkey had escaped from his hands time and time again. This made Tathagata feel humiliated. Left with no other choice, he could only use a great spell. Otherwise, if the Devil Monkey escaped, then his reputation as Tathagata Buddha would be tarnished!
His hands quickly formed a Buddhist seal. The Middle World under Tathagata Buddha began to shrink rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a golden ball of light the size of a palm. It spun and was about to fall into his palm.
Weng!
At this moment, the light barrier surrounding the golden ball of light suddenly began to crack. Tathagata was alarmed when he saw this. A golden Buddha palm descended from the sky, intending to shatter the golden ball of light in front of him with one palm strike!
Chi La!
Like a heavenly moat, a large spatial crack suddenly appeared in the sky. Endless spatial power surged out and swallowed the golden Buddha's palm in a flash.
This wasn't the end. As the golden Buddha palm was devoured, the spatial crack extended like a silver dragon and separated the Gautama Buddha from the golden sphere. Although the two were only inches apart, it was as if they were at the end of the world.
"Tathagata, you can't take away my disciple!"
An indifferent and cold voice, accompanied by the sound of rolling thunder, suddenly exploded in the Heaven Realm. This caused the Gautama Buddha, who was about to attack again, to pause. Then, he sat cross-legged on the golden Buddhist lotus and put his palms together, no longer moving.
As the indifferent voice fell, a young Taoist in a black Taoist robe walked slowly from the sky, as if he was treading on the river of time. While the Immortals were in a daze, he suddenly came to the side of the golden ball of light.
With a wave of his hand, the spatial passage of the Heaven and Earth in his palm appeared. The golden ball, which had condensed a part of the universe, was directly absorbed by Cheng Hao.
"What kind of spatial Divine Power is that? It can actually absorb a part of the universe?"
The Gautama Buddha frowned when he saw this. He looked very surprised. After all, no matter how small the ball of light was, it was still a part of the universe. What kind of Divine Power could directly absorb a part of the universe?
Cheng Hao smiled and didn't answer. If it was a real and complete Middle Thousand Universe, his Inner World naturally wouldn't be able to easily absorb it. However, although this golden ball of light contained a part of the universe, it was after all transformed by the Gautama Buddha's Divine Power. It hadn't completely become real. Even if it looked almost the same as the real world, it was still not real!
If it wasn't real, it was naturally illusory. How could an illusory Divine Power compete with the real Inner World?
"Haotian, you didn't keep your promise!" Gautama Buddha looked at the black-robed Taoist who was confronting him across the big space crack with a cold expression and directly scolded him with a voice transmission.
"When have I ever not kept my promise?" Cheng Hao had a gentle smile on his face, and then he replied with a voice transmission, "I promised to let Wukong be the guardian of the sutras, but I never said that I would let you suppress him!"
"You scoundrel, if you don't suppress him and get rid of his demonic nature, how will he be willing to go to the West Heaven for the sutras?"
"You don't have to worry about this. When the day comes, Wukong will naturally become the guardian of the sutras. I won't delay your important matters!"
Cheng Hao shook his head gently, and then he looked directly at the Gautama Buddha, "Dare I ask, my friend, does the agreement between you and me still stand?"
"If you don't stop my Spiritual Mountain's Journey to the West plan, I won't interfere in the grudge between you and the Heavenly Court. You and I have already made a life oath, so I naturally won't violate it!" The Gautama Buddha put his palms together and nodded gently.
"Very good!" Cheng Hao nodded, then he turned around and stepped into the void, and his figure gradually disappeared into the distance.
Gautama Buddha was silent as he looked at Cheng Hao's gradually disappearing figure, but a sense of crisis had already risen in his heart.
"This person's cultivation is still below mine, but his combat power and Divine Power are no weaker than mine. If his cultivation advances in the future, even if my Spiritual Mountain and the Heavenly Court join forces, we may not be his match!"
Gautama Buddha looked up at the Heavenly Court and seemed to see the Jade Emperor sitting in the Lingxiao Palace. He chanted the name of Buddha, put his palms together, and gently bowed.
"Greetings, Great Heavenly Lord!"
The Jade Emperor and Gautama Buddha looked at each other, then nodded and slowly withdrew their gazes. No one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Gautama Buddha withdrew his gaze and sighed in his heart. He hadn't seen the Jade Emperor in action for a long time. The extent of his true strength had always been a mystery!
"Whether it's the Jade Emperor or that Haotian, they are both difficult characters to deal with. It seems that the Journey to the West plan should be carried out quickly and can't be delayed any longer!" The Journey to the West plan was related to whether Buddhism could spread to the East or not. It was also related to whether the incense from the Three Thousand Medium-Class Worlds could gather on Spiritual Mountain. There couldn't be the slightest mistake!
Gautama Buddha urged the Golden Lotus under him and turned into a golden rainbow. He rushed all the way back to Spiritual Mountain.
"Revered One, that demon monkey was taken away by Haotian?" Guanyin Bodhisattva rushed over as soon as he returned to the mountain.
