The earth shattered, the sky trembled, no living thing survived for thousands of miles, and the entire prehistoric land was devastated.
The two were evenly matched, and each retreated. Tathagata's face was solemn, and Tathagata was very surprised by the strength of the One-Horned Si King.
King Dujiaosi is also very serious. As the leader of Buddhism, Tathagata has the blessing of many powers of faith, and he can mobilize the power of thousands of Buddhas' faiths with a single thought.
"Hey, I really didn't expect that you actually have such strength. I'm really impressed. But based on these words, I'm afraid you will lose to me today."
Although Tathagata was a little solemn, he was still full of confidence.
"Tathagata, stop talking nonsense, we don't know who will win, just take action."
Si also had a trump card but did not use it, and was very disdainful of Tathagata's words.
"Okay, then I'll let you see it!"
As he spoke, Tathagata recited Buddhist scriptures, and in an instant, the Buddha behind him burst out with bright Buddha light, covering half of the entire prehistoric land.
Feeling the loud chanting sound, many Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats in Lingshan were solemn and solemn, and the power of faith roared from Lingshan.
Many people who believe in Buddhism throughout the ancient world also recite Buddhist scriptures, and the power of faith also gathers towards the Tathagata.
"Amitabha!"
The Tathagata chants the name of the Buddha, and the power of countless beliefs in the sky and the earth gathers into a long river of belief that runs through the heaven and the earth, and bright golden light bursts out, pouring into the body of the Tathagata.
In an instant, the Buddha statue behind Tathagata seemed to turn into a golden sun, and the dazzling golden light made it difficult to open one's eyes.
When all the long rivers of faith were absorbed into the Tathagata's body, a Buddha statue as tall as the sky and the earth appeared in front of the world.
Unimaginable quasi-sage auras spurted out, shocking the world.
I saw Tathagata stretching out his hand. The huge palm of the Buddha statue contained countless scriptures, which were combined into a huge Buddha seal, and it was suppressed fiercely towards the One-horned King.
"Humph, I want to see what you are capable of!"
Instead of showing any fear, King Dujiao Si's eyes were filled with excitement.
I saw King Dujiao Si flipping his palm, and a diamond bracelet appeared in his palm. A silver light flashed through, as if it had cut through countless spaces and time, and whizzed away towards the Buddha statue.
Wherever the diamond bracelet went, the space turned into nothingness, and terrifying cracks swallowed the energy of chaos, and hit the Tathagata's Buddha statue in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, the huge Buddha statue was shattered into pieces, with hideous cracks all over the body of the Buddha statue. A moment later, it shattered inch by inch, turning into streaks of golden light and disappearing between heaven and earth.
Tathagata's face was extremely pale, with a hint of blood on the corner of his mouth, and his pupils were full of disbelief.
Boom!
With a huge roar, the Buddha statue exploded completely, and the diamond bracelet hit the Tathagata itself with unimaginable power.
Under the blow of the diamond bracelet, Tathagata suffered serious wounds and vomited blood, and his body flew backwards.
Seeing that Tathagata was seriously injured, many disciples in Lingshan fell silent for an instant, their hearts shaking and filled with fear.
King Dujiao Si looked at Tathagata calmly, his face full of disdain and coldness.
"I actually lost, how is this possible?"
Tathagata was a little lost and couldn't believe that all this was true.
"Tathagata, these are the supernatural powers and spells you have acquired by joining Buddhism, and that's nothing more than that."
King Dujiao Si just said lightly.
Hearing the words of King Dujiaosi, Tathagata suddenly raised his head, and a strange and terrifying red light flashed in his eyes, looking extremely terrifying and evil.
"Tathagata, release your inner self..."
At this moment, there was a voice in Tathagata's heart that kept shouting.
"Am I really wrong? No, I'm not wrong!"
Tathagata murmured to himself, his face full of struggle.
Seeing such a strange scene like Tathagata, King Dujiao Si was also filled with doubts.
This blow from King Dujiao Si not only seriously injured Tathagata, but also caused Tathagata to doubt himself, causing the Taoist heart to be unstable and giving birth to inner demons!
Fortunately, Tathagata is a quasi-sage with strong cultivation and firm will. Although the inner demon was born, after experiencing some confusion, Tathagata still suppressed it temporarily with his strong cultivation.
With the inner demons temporarily suppressed, Tathagata's face returned to normal again, his eyes silently staring at the One-horned Si King.
"I failed, what price do you want me to pay?"
Tathagata asked bitterly.
"I don't want anything else, just give me 500,000 merits and it will be done."
King Dujiao Si opened his mouth and said.
Upon hearing this, Tathagata's complexion changed, his heart felt so painful, and he swallowed the donated blood in his throat.
"In that case, I'll give it to you."
Saying this, Tathagata took out the power of five hundred thousand merit and gave it to King Dujiaosi.
"I have paid the price. I hope you can keep your promise and let Tang Xuanzang and others leave immediately."
Tathagata said weakly.
"This is natural. I, a Taoist, always mean what I say, and I will naturally abide by what I have said. I will not be like you and others who only deceive and deceive."
King Dujiao Si responded unceremoniously.
Tathagata's heart was filled with despair. At this moment, his heart was filled with rage and he could no longer bear it.
"I'll take my leave now!"
After saying that, Tathagata waved his hand and returned to Lingshan with Kasyapa and others.
Tathagata and others returned to Lingshan Mountain. Many Buddhas saw Tathagata whose face was as pale as snow and whose breath was sluggish. Their faces were full of disbelief and worry.
Tathagata is the leader of Buddhism, but he can't even suppress Taishang Laojun's mount. This not only makes Buddhism lose face, but also shakes the hearts of many people who believe in Buddhism.
In this battle, Buddhism suffered heavy losses, and Tathagata was seriously injured, and a demon was born in his heart. He had no time to care about the matter, so he had to explain a few words and immediately retreated to recover from his injuries.
Kassapa and others were equally miserable. Although they did not die physically or mentally, their golden bodies were destroyed and their realms fell a lot. It would be difficult to recover within a hundred years.
In an instant, Buddhism was filled with gloom and gloom, and the entire Lingshan fell into despair.
As Tathagata and others left, King Dujiao Si blinked at Sun Wukong.
"Senior Brother Si, it turns out you are so strong, it really opened my eyes."
Sun Wukong also did not expect that the One-horned King Si was so powerful that even Tathagata was no match for him.
"You monkey head has a very sweet mouth. Now that the matter is over, it's time for me to return to heaven."
"This is your weapon. You must practice it diligently in the future."
King Dujiaosi returned the weapon to Sun Wukong and gave him a warning.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Si, for your advice. I will remember it."
Hearing this, Sun Wukong also responded very politely.
Later, King Dujiaosi released Tang Xuanzang and others. Under the watchful eyes of Tang Xuanzang's master and disciple, King Dujiaosi turned into a ray of blue light and returned to Tushita Palace.
