Although the speed of the two Great Rocs had slowed down, they created a storm of lights as they flapped their wings. They tore through the void, preventing Traveling Monk Hui An's metal rod from descending.
Their claws immediately descended, grabbing towards Traveling Monk Hui An's limbs with the momentum of plucking the stars and moon.
If Wu Yu was caught, even the Invincible Vajra Body of the Buddhist sect would be torn to shreds by the combined force of the four attacks.
A golden lamp lit up above Traveling Monk Hui An's head, and a sarira appeared on the golden lamp.
As the sarira's treasured light shone, the surrounding space became blurry.
He made use of this opportunity to turn his body and evade the two Great Rocs' attack.
However, at this moment, sunlight illuminated the entire world. A figure suddenly appeared beside Traveling Monk Hui An. It was Gao Han.
Gao Han waved the Holy Radiance Banner in his right hand, pushing away the Chaotic Metal Rod in Traveling Monk Hui An's hand. Then, his empty left hand grabbed towards the crimson red gourd.
Traveling Monk Hui An retracted the Curved Twin Swords of Wu behind his back and slashed towards Gao Han.
Brilliance gathered above Gao Han's head, and his entire body's vitality surged.
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng looked over, and their hearts trembled. It was obvious that Gao Han had the Duo Flowers Converged Crown above his head.
After Suo Mingzhang sliced off one of his flowers, Gao Han had already cultivated it back. His speed was so fast that it exceeded everyone's expectations.
However, after paying attention to it for a while, they had to retract their attention.
The other Buddhist Bhantes that came together with Traveling Monk Hui An all started attacking. Yan Zhaoge and the others had to deal with them carefully.
All of a sudden, more than one Virtual Immortal Realm expert attacked. The sonorous voice of the great dao resounded. Even if Yan Zhaoge was proficient in the Peerless Heavenly Scripture and had a deep foundation in cultivating the Three Clear Lineages, he still felt like he was seeing stars.
He took a deep breath and calmed his mind. He ignored the battle in front of him and took out some treasures and materials that he had prepared previously. Then, he started waving them in the void.
Feng Yunsheng stood by his side. With a long saber in her hand, she circled around her body and slashed.
The black saber's edge left an indelible mark in the void, as if it had separated this space from the boundless void's outskirts.
Black lights shot up from the saber mark and transformed into a formless barrier, isolating Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng from the outside world.
That pitch-black saber light seemed to be the end of all things. Everything had to stop before it.
The majestic sonorous voice of the Great Path was also directly cut off. The formless celestial voice and Buddhist chant collided with the black screen and then collapsed, forming circles of helpless ripples.
A Buddhist Bhante approached them and stared at Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng. He chanted the name of Buddha and extended both his palms. He strode forward, attempting to pass through the saber mark left behind by Feng Yunsheng.
The direct lineage of Buddhism had its own style. It was perfected and developed by the former master of the central Blessed Land of Saha, the Spirited Mountain Tathagata Buddha, who had already transcended.
Before the Central Pure Land of Saha, when the Western Pure Land of Pure Land appeared, the Second Ancestor of the Western Sect had already explored another path before the Grand Pure Dao Sect spread the Dharma. It was the predecessor of the Buddhist direct lineage martial arts.
The former and the latter were juxtaposed, verifying and merging with each other, gradually establishing a Buddhist martial art that was independent of the Daoist martial art.
Although there were references and interconnections, there were many areas that were different.
The Buddhist martial arts used the Three Leakless Arts as their foundation, with the Four Noble Truths as their essence. The Thirty-seven Dao Grades were the main branch, which was the direct lineage. Through this, the martial arts were further divided and developed into various branches.
Similar to Daoism's direct lineage and miscellaneous lineage, the Buddhist branch martial arts might not be inferior to the Buddhist direct lineage martial arts in terms of combat prowess. In fact, they might even surpass it.
However, when it came to cultivating one's self internally, most of them would return to the same path in the end.
Going upwards, breaking through karma, seeing the Tathagata, emptiness of non-self, and enlightenment of wisdom.
In this aspect, the Western Pure Land wasn't much different from the central Blessed Lands of Saha. As for the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus, due to the Future Buddha's re-establishment of the scriptures, the Zen martial arts and Zen martial arts still existed. However, Zen didn't cultivate one's self, awaken one's wisdom, fulfill one's aspirations, and redeem all living beings.
However, the Buddhist Bhante that Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng were facing was of the Western Pure Land's direct lineage.
He raised his hands. It was the final seal of the Four Thoughts Initial Seal of the Buddhist direct lineage's Thirty-seven Dao Grades – Observing the Art of Non-Self.
The art was the myriad of arts. All sentient and emotionless lifeforms in the world were collectively known as the myriad of arts. All of them were born from the combination of karma and falsehood.
The separation of karma and falsehood were all falsehood. Life and death were impermanent. Among the myriad of arts, there wasn't a self that could be obtained.
While executing the Art of Non-Self Observation Seal, the Buddhist Bhante was also circulating the third of the Four Noble Truths – the Truth of Annihilation.
Annihilation meant nirvana. Extinguishing the intent of annihilation, annihilating all the troubles within the Three Realms, as well as the karmic retribution of life and death. After transcending life and death, one would no longer have to suffer the troubles of life and death within the Three Realms. Attaining the Nirvana Nirvana Realm would be considered liberation.
The two arts fused internally and externally, transforming into the art of annihilation. It broke through all obstructions and ascended to the true meaning of liberation.
In actual combat, it was similar to the Prime Clear Numinous Treasure Four Swords – the Immortal Exterminating Sword Manual.
Although the Buddhist Bhante had been residing in the Buddhist Lands for a long time and rarely entered the secular world, he could tell that Feng Yunsheng's saber intent was extraordinary. As such, he didn't dare to be careless. In his first move, he infused all the essence of his cultivation into it.
Blue-black devilish flames flickered within Feng Yunsheng's eyes. She stood still on the spot, and the saber in her hand was as steady as a mountain. She held it horizontally in front of her chest, showing no signs of moving.
When the Buddhist Bhante's attack landed on the black light barrier, the black light barrier remained as calm as a lake, with no ripples at all.
As for the Buddha light that was as clear as a glaze, it seemed like scattered sunlight, disappearing into nothingness.
"She's only defending and not attacking, yet she has such prowess?" Everyone present was shocked, "From the looks of it, she should be the type that strengthens her defense more than her offense."
Seeing this, Traveling Monk Hui An frowned, "No wonder this woman was listed as the main target of attention. The Doomsday Heavenly Devil's authority is one aspect, and her talent is also extremely outstanding. With the two combined, how many Virtual Immortals could be her opponent? I feel like this is even under the situation where she's intentionally restraining herself … "
He looked at Yan Zhaoge, who seemed to be very quiet beside Feng Yunsheng. His frown deepened, "With this person's great reputation, I'm afraid that he's also not someone that's easy to deal with …"
As he was pondering, Traveling Monk Hui An's figure flashed to the side.
A blazing sun broke through the void and transformed into boundless radiances, which brushed past him.
Gao Han smiled and deflected the Curved Sword of Wu. Then, he attacked Traveling Monk Hui An again.
"He's much stronger than that old scoundrel, Li Xingba." Traveling Monk Hui An parried Gao Han's attack and sighed in his heart, "Truly, a new generation replacing the old."
Currently, on the battlefield, everyone was gathered together, and chaos ensued.
Other than Feng Yunsheng and Yan Zhaoge, who were as steady as a mountain, everyone else was caught in the middle of a battle.
"It's done," said Yan Zhaoge suddenly.
He clasped his palms together, and rays of radiances danced in front of him. Finally, they returned to silence, and transformed into a dim clump of radiances.
