Then the aura of Sage Zhunti suddenly surged once more.
He was about to unleash a major technique to salvage his sage dignity.
Behind him, his eighteen palms swayed lightly, producing countless afterimages.
Those afterimages then transformed into innumerable hands that shrouded the heavens and blotted out the sun.
They all came crashing down toward Goddess Nuwa in a furious bombardment.
This was the Western Sect's ultimate divine ability: the Thousand-Hand Buddha!
The scene of surging waves and raging tides shocked the countless Primordial Beings across the Primordial Land.
No one expected Sage Zhunti to possess such a technique.
It was truly beyond imagination.
After all, the Thousand-Hand Buddha's display was utterly terrifying.
Facing the Thousand-Hand Buddha's assault, Goddess Nuwa's expression gradually turned solemn.
Then, with a deeply grave look, she began chanting an unknown incantation.
Her voice was extremely loud as she chanted.
It could almost be said to resound across half the Primordial Land.
Yet no one could make out what spell she was reciting.
After a moment, Goddess Nuwa, with a most solemn expression, pointed forward and spoke in a weighty, resonant voice: "Rashomon."
The moment the word "Rashomon" left her lips.
The entire Primordial Land seemed to tremble.
Then, an immensely terrifying gate, vast enough to shroud the heavens, appeared between heaven and earth.
That gate, blotting out the sky, stood transversely across the land.
Carved upon its massive surface were countless giant serpents.
Like a snake hell, the scene was truly horrifying beyond measure.
This dreadfully fearsome Rashomon completely separated Nuwa from Zhunti.
All of Zhunti Daoist's Thousand-Hand Buddha attacks were blocked by this Rashomon.
Every strike that struck the Rashomon vanished without a trace, like a stone sinking into the sea.
After an unknown span of time, Sage Zhunti's Thousand-Hand Buddha power finally subsided.
And Nuwa's Rashomon gradually grew ethereal, eventually fading into nothingness.
All of Sage Zhunti's Thousand-Hand Buddha attacks had been completely blocked by Goddess Nuwa's Rashomon.
This stunned everyone.
Sage Zhunti was utterly dumbfounded.
At that moment, Goddess Nuwa, wielding the Creation Whip, struck at Zhunti once more.
"Crack..."
The just-exhausted Sage Zhunti, caught off guard, was hit by Goddess Nuwa again.
He stumbled forward, staggering back a few steps, nearly falling to the ground.
At this moment, he was completely dazed.
He had been struck by Goddess Nuwa again?
He had suffered another great loss at her hands?
To him, this was an utter humiliation.
In countless years since attaining sagehood, through myriad tribulations, when had he ever endured such disgrace?
Moreover, all the Primordial Beings were watching this battle.
Yet he had been struck by Nuwa twice in a row.
It was truly unbearable.
Goddess Nuwa was humiliating him.
And in doing so, she was also humiliating the Western Sect.
At this thought, Sage Zhunti's expression gradually twisted with fury.
The violent emotions within him nearly drove him mad.
With a crazed look, Sage Zhunti's aura surged once more.
His overwhelming momentum seemed ready to destroy heaven and earth.
Then his massive form charged directly at Goddess Nuwa.
At the same time, he drove his eighteen dharma treasures, all of them attacking Goddess Nuwa.
Suddenly, the entire Western Heaven and Earth began to tremble violently.
All kinds of precious light flickered across the sky, and the power of the Great Dao bombarded without cease.
The entire Western land began to quake at this moment.
The scene of mountains shaking and earth splitting was like another apocalypse.
Even under the protection of the Guiding Sage of the West, the Western beings still felt unbearable suffering.
And facing the frenzied Sage Zhunti, Goddess Nuwa remained extremely calm.
The Tassel Red Embroidered Ball, Precious Lotus Lamp, Creation Whip, Shanhe Sheji Map, Five Elements Spirit Beads, and Ephemeral Entangling Sky Ribbon all flickered with various lights as well.
Those two colossal Law, Heaven, and Earth avatars even violently collided with each other.
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
That immense impact force shook the soul!
Countless treasures clashed and slaughtered each other in the sky.
But every treasure was at a disadvantage before the bombardment of the Red Embroidered Ball.
After all, the Red Embroidered Ball was ranked thirty-third.
The Red Embroidered Ball charged straight ahead, destroying several of Sage Zhunti's treasures with irresistible force.
Faced with this situation, Sage Zhunti's heart also turned ruthless.
The Seven Treasure Mystical Tree in his hand brushed repeatedly, barely managing to withstand the power of the Red Embroidered Ball.
Yet even so, Sage Zhunti gradually fell behind in their duel.
After all, whether in terms of magical power or treasures, Nuwa held the upper hand.
Though Sage Zhunti roared in fury repeatedly, it was to no avail; he could only be suppressed by Goddess Nuwa, even beginning to retreat step by step.
"Slap"
The Creation Whip in Goddess Nuwa's hand lashed once more onto Sage Zhunti's body.
The gap between the two finally began to show.
When Sage Zhunti attained sainthood, it was already a very strained affair.
He had continuously made forty-eight great vows, borrowing merit from the Heavenly Dao, barely managing to become a saint.
Compared to Nuwa, he was indeed far inferior.
Beyond that, there was also a certain gap in the overall performance of their treasures.
Although he wielded eighteen kinds of treasures, the only ones that posed a threat to Goddess Nuwa were the Seven Treasure Mystical Tree, the Six Roots of Purity Bamboo, and the Empowering Divine Pestle—these three treasures that were listed.
Meanwhile, the treasures in Goddess Nuwa's hands were all extremely high on the rankings.
Every single treasure could bring a powerful sense of threat to Sage Zhunti.
In addition, Goddess Nuwa also possessed numerous defensive treasures.
The Ephemeral Entangling Sky Ribbon, Limitless Umbrella Canopy, Five Elements Spirit Beads, Ephemeral Spirit Embroidery Robe...
Thus, after a prolonged battle, she finally suppressed Sage Zhunti's arrogant momentum.
When the Red Embroidered Ball smashed down again, Zhunti Daoist's body was instantly thrown into disarray, nearly tumbling headlong from midair.
The immense power of the Red Embroidered Ball almost sent his eighteen treasures flying from his hands.
At that moment, his enormous Golden Body also burst apart.
The surface of the Golden Body spread with cracks like a spiderweb, a shocking sight to behold.
After all, Goddess Nuwa's strike was far too stunning.
Zhunti Daoist drew a deep, ragged breath.
His gaze toward Nuwa was filled with boundless fury.
A faint flash of light flickered across his body, and the Golden Body covered in cracks was instantly repaired.
Seeing this, the Primordial Beings were all in awe.
That a saint was an immortal and indestructible existence—indeed, it was not without reason.
This tiny scratch was practically negligible to Sage Zhunti.
But Goddess Nuwa had managed to strike Zhunti multiple times.
She had made him lose face and become a laughingstock.
That was clearly no small feat.
Faced with this situation, Sage Zhunti grew even more furious.
He was even somewhat frantic with rage.
"Nuwa... you forced my hand..."
He suddenly let out a furious roar, then raised all eighteen hands above his head, palms facing upward.
As if he were supporting something incomparably vast.
Then a shockingly terrifying aura spread from his hands.
All the Primordial Beings felt an overwhelmingly powerful pressure.
They stared at Zhunti in horror.
Never had they imagined Zhunti possessed such a fearsome divine ability.
