The Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha, also known as the Sweet Dew Wisdom King, was a Blessed Lands of the White Lotus' Buddha who had attained the heretical Buddhahood. For many years, he had been one of the top experts in the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus.
Before he became a Buddha, he was commonly known as the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha.
Or perhaps, the Mystical Mountain's Guardian, Jinzha.
He was also the crown prince of the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing, Nezha and Muzha's elder brother.
During the Ancient era, he was taught by the Daoism's Jade Clear bigwig, Manjushri Heavenly Lord. He was also one of the elites among the three generations of Daoism.
During the Middle era, he followed his master, Manjushri Heavenly Lord, and joined the Shakyamuni Buddhism. Manjushri Heavenly Lord became the Manjushri Bodhisattva, while Jinzha became the Mystical Mountain's Guardian.
After the Middle era ended, the former Daoist Ancestor Zhunti, who later became the Gautama Buddha, transcended. The Maitreya Buddha changed the central Blessed Lands of Saha's teachings, causing a huge change within Buddhism.
During that chaos, many Buddhist experts left and joined the Western Pure Lands, including Guanyin, Samantabhadra, Muzha, and the others.
The Manjushri Bodhisattva perished in that calamity, while Jinzha chose to stay in the central Blessed Lands of Saha, which was also the current Blessed Lands of the White Lotus, and converted to the heretical Buddhism.
It was hard to say why he made such a choice.
Compared to Muzha, who remained in the Grand Void realm, only the person himself would know the difference.
During the Great Calamity, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing betrayed the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace and joined the Western Pure Lands, returning to the Dipankara Ancient Buddha. Nezha suffered a calamity and narrowly escaped death.
Their family split up and went their separate ways.
Now, Li Jing was personally killed by Nezha, while Muzha was killed by the Taiyi Enlightened Being.
After Jinzha entered the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus, he became different from Li Jing and Muzha. When they met, it would be awkward. If they were to meet in battle, they would have to fight.
Strictly speaking, his relationship with Li Jing and Muzha might not be as good as Nezha's.
It was not necessarily true that he was eager to take revenge for Li Jing and Mu Zha. However, the karma from back then still existed. If he could sever the karma, it would undoubtedly be beneficial to his cultivation.
The Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha naturally knew that the ancient Buddha wanted to use someone else to kill him.
Now that Nezha had died in his hands, Yang Jian, the Taiyi Spiritual Master, Yan Zhaoge, and the others from Daoism would most likely not let the matter rest.
But for various reasons, he still came.
After receiving the ancient Dipankara Buddha's guidance, he quietly waited in the void outside the Western Pure Lands. As expected, after Nezha was expelled from the Western Pure Lands, he landed here.
Moreover, after careful observation, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha confirmed that Nezha was in a bad condition, just as the ancient Dipankara Buddha had said.
If it was any other time, he would not be a match for Nezha even if he ascended to the realm of Grand Luo through the righteous path, much less now that he was a heretic Grand Luo.
But now, facing Nezha, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha had a short opportunity for him to display his power.
Due to his current predicament, not only was it difficult for Nezha to take action, but it was also difficult for him to unleash the power of all his treasures.
However, the Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual on Nezha was beyond the Buddha's expectations.
No matter if it was the ancient Dipankara Buddha or the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha, none of them expected Yan Zhaoge's Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual to be this effective.
Under the suppression of the Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual, Nezha's condition was better than what the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha had predicted.
Although he was still troubled by the streams of black qis, Nezha forcefully raised his spirits and told the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha to make no progress within a short period of time.
At this moment, Yan Zhaoge arrived following the Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual.
Upon seeing Yan Zhaoge, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha's expression turned solemn.
Even if Yan Zhaoge had yet to ascend to the Grand Heavenly Realm, the world had already acknowledged his strength.
The Red Inferno Dhamma Buddha of the orthodox Buddhism and the Dingguang Joyous Buddha of the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus, as well as the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha, had already proven this point to others.
The Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha didn't look down on Yan Zhaoge just because his cultivation was higher.
Besides, even if Yan Zhaoge was only an ordinary Grand Virtual Immortal, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha wouldn't care about the Golden Body of the Great Sage that was closely related to him.
Although he wished to end Nezha, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha had thoughts of retreating.
Unfortunately, before he could retreat, a huge drum suddenly appeared above Yan Zhaoge's head.
The drum's sound resounded continuously, shaking the entire universe.
"… Heavenly Ascension Drum!" The Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha instantly recognized the treasure.
The drum's original owner, the Immortal Court's Percussion Heavenly Lord, had many dealings with the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus. Naturally, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha wasn't unfamiliar with it.
Looking at the Heavenly Ascension Drum appearing within Yan Zhaoge's hands, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha couldn't help but feel weird. However, he was even more vigilant!
As the drum's sound resounded, it materialized and sealed the entire universe.
Under the influence of this Grand Heavenly Realm Immortal Artifact, the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha realized that he had lost many of his profundities when facing the Grand Virtual Realm Yan Zhaoge.
Even if he wanted to unleash the Grand Heavenly Realm's omnipresent divine art, he couldn't do so.
As for Yan Zhaoge, he took a step forward and instantly arrived in front of the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha. Then, he slammed his palm downwards!
The majestic palm force even caused the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha to feel suffocated.
"As expected of his reputation!"
Such a thought flashed through the Buddha's mind. How could he care about Nezha anymore? He sat on the white lotus and hurriedly shook his avatar.
The Sweet Dew Wisdom King avatar with four faces and eight arms was coiled around by crimson snakes and Yellow Collared Snakes. It was the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha's combat stance. Each of his eight arms held different seals and attacked Yan Zhaoge together.
The eight seals manifested the Heaven, Dragon, Yaksha, Gandharva, Asura, Garuda, Kinnara, and Mahoraga's Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon.
With the Eight Divisions gathered together, a Buddha stood atop them, suppressing and subduing myriad devils.
Its might was extremely ferocious and majestic. It was the Blessed Lands of the White Lotus' top-notch virtuous arts.
However, Yan Zhaoge only blinked his eyes upon seeing this, and the divine splendor above his head lit up.
His right palm continued slamming towards the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha, while his left hand extended and struck nine palms towards the sky.
At this moment, Yan Zhaoge fused the Primordial Earlier Heaven Three Scriptures into one, transforming into the Origin Opening Nine Forms' Divine Palm. The first eight palms were outwards, and they seemed like they were slapping and grabbing at the same time, completely shattering the Heavenly Dragon's Eight Divisions.
For a moment, dragon scales, python scales, flower petals, porcelain shards, and broken ribbons could be seen flying everywhere.
Yan Zhaoge's final palm stacked with the previous eight palms' combined strength and exploded, instantly shattering the Buddha statue into pieces!
His right hand continued extending forward. His five fingers opened up, transforming into a sky-covering palm, which covered the Lotus Platform Spreading Dharma Buddha and the Sweet Dew Wisdom King atop its head.
As the gigantic palm descended, it was even larger than the Sweet Dew Wisdom King. It directly grabbed the Sweet Dew Wisdom King with four heads and eight arms, as if it was pinching a chicken!
