Primordial World: You Asked Me to Sell Goods, But I Became the Supreme of All Heavens

Even the Great Thunderclap Monastery wasn't large enough to compare with the Dharma Body Golden Form that Tathagata released this time.

Just as Tathagata had said earlier, Ksitigarbha's power had earned his respect, and he would use his true strength to confront Ksitigarbha.

Instead of acting casually as he had just done.

"Boom..."

The face of the Dharma Body Golden Form was filled with compassion, one hand holding prayer beads, the other holding a vajra pestle.

The vajra pestle of the Dharma Body Golden Form smashed forward.

Space was torn apart, and the fused Buddha light was filled with killing intent and destruction at this moment.

In Buddhism, it's not always about compassion; when a Buddha gets angry, there are also Wrathful Buddhas.

As the source of Buddhism, Buddha Tathagata naturally understood this.

"Ksitigarbha, take this."

The golden vajra pestle smashed into that power of annihilation, and the two forces collided.

Instantly.

The Buddhist powerhouses in the distance could not see anything, nor could they hear any sound.

The collision of these two Quasi-Saint powers had already affected the souls of some less powerful Buddhist individuals.

This was the fundamental reason why they could neither see nor hear.

Quasi-Saint powerhouses like Guanyin and Manjushri could withstand the impact of this power.

"Is this Ksitigarbha's power? So strong." Manjushri exclaimed in shock.

If Ksitigarbha had used this power earlier, they would likely have been heavily injured.

Manjushri Bodhisattva had to admit this.

"Indeed strong, but still a gap compared to the Buddha," Guanyin's eyes flickered.

He could still deduce the current situation of the battle.

Ksitigarbha had used all his trump cards, even his demonic power that could potentially cause him severe injuries.

Yet, Tathagata's expression remained unchanged.

It seemed that Tathagata, in their eyes, was still at ease.

Even Guanyin could not deduce the true bottom line of Tathagata's strength.

A moment later.

This Spirit Mountain area recovered its clarity, and the demonic energy in the heavens and earth had vanished.

The entire Spirit Mountain still shimmered with golden light, standing tall, as did the Great Thunderclap Monastery.

It was as if the destructive attack had never happened.

In reality, Spirit Mountain remained completely unchanged, entirely because Buddha Tathagata had protected this land.

As the main base of his Buddhism, Tathagata did not want Spirit Mountain to be destroyed.

Doing so would be equivalent to slapping the face of Buddhism.

"Ksitigarbha..." Tathagata opened his palm, on which a distorted black light twisted, which was demonic power.

Tathagata and Ksitigarbha had attacked each other earlier, and in the end, Tathagata had let Ksitigarbha escape.

Naturally, this was also related to the strength Ksitigarbha had displayed.

If he had truly wanted to capture Ksitigarbha, some of the Buddhist powerhouses in the Great Thunderclap Monastery would have been affected.

Tathagata did not want this to happen.

There would be plenty of time to deal with Ksitigarbha.

Even if Buddhism gained another enemy like Ksitigarbha, it wouldn't amount to much.

"Buddha, something's wrong, something's wrong." A Bodhisattva in ornate robes approached Tathagata.

"Moonlight Bodhisattva, what is it?" Tathagata asked.

Moonlight Bodhisattva was one of the Eight Great Bodhisattvas of Buddhism.

However, this Bodhisattva's strength could not compare to Guanyin, Manjushri, and the others; he only possessed the power of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

After all, even within Buddhism, Quasi-Saint level powerhouses were not numerous.

"Bodhisattva, several Buddhist Pagodas on Spirit Mountain have been completely looted," Moonlight Bodhisattva said quickly.

Buddhist Pagodas were places where Buddhism stored treasures.

According to Moonlight Bodhisattva, those treasures had been completely looted.

"Ksitigarbha." Tathagata's expression turned grim.

The fact that he hadn't sensed it meant only Ksitigarbha, who was confronting him, could have done it.

At that time, Ksitigarbha's demonic energy had spread throughout the heavens and earth, and Tathagata could not constantly monitor the changes on Spirit Mountain.

How to put it, the opponents he faced were all powerhouses of the same level.

Even if there was a gap between Ksitigarbha and him, they were still Quasi-Saint powerhouses.

"Haotian, have you seen enough?" Tathagata's gaze fixed on the sky above, as if he could see Haotian, who had been watching the battlefield.

As soon as the words fell, an incredibly terrifying Buddhist light surged towards the sky.

"Bang..."

A sound like shattering glass echoed, and Tathagata retracted his gaze.

"Buddha Ancestor..."

Guanyin, Manjushri, and the other Bodhisattvas, along with all the Arhats and Jialan, respectfully bowed at this moment.

Buddha Tathagata was the most revered existence within Buddhism.

And through this battle, they understood even more how terrifying the Buddha Ancestor truly was.

Compared to them, he was on an entirely different level.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, announce to the public that Ksitigarbha has been expelled from Buddhism. He will become a disgrace to Buddhism and needs to be purified," Tathagata said to Guanyin.

"Yes, Buddha Ancestor, Guanyin understands," Guanyin quickly nodded.

Ksitigarbha's attack on Buddhism this time would undoubtedly cause a violent upheaval in this world.

Therefore, what would happen to Ksitigarbha next would depend on how Buddhism arranged it.

Buddhism could not simply watch Ksitigarbha betray them without taking any action; otherwise, Buddhism would lose face.

"Everyone, go back," Tathagata said in a deep voice. "For our Buddhism, Ksitigarbha's matter is not important."

That's right.

For Tathagata, the Journey to the West Tribulation five hundred years later was the top priority.

"Yes, Buddha Ancestor..."

On the Primordial World, some distance from Spirit Mountain.

A black light flickered and appeared there. It was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

"Pfft..."

A mouthful of blood sprayed from Ksitigarbha's mouth, scattering in mid-air.

Although he had escaped from Tathagata, Ksitigarbha had paid a price, and his foundation had suffered some damage.

"Hoo... Tathagata is indeed powerful," Ksitigarbha muttered to himself. "I didn't expect the gap between myself and Tathagata to be so vast."

After obtaining the Demon Heart, Ksitigarbha's strength had improved, and he had been full of confidence then. This battle had somewhat sobered him up.

He was not yet at the stage where he could be arrogant. His strength was still far from that of Tathagata of Buddhism.

This was truly a case of there being someone better beyond everyone, and heavens beyond heavens.

"It seems the gap between Quasi-Saints is even more astonishing than I imagined."

"Master." A voice suddenly rang out.

A strange creature with a tiger's head, a single horn, dog ears, a dragon's body, and a lion's tail appeared.

This was Diting.

The spiritual divine beast under Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

It was Diting who had reported the disappearance of the treasures from the Spirit Mountain Buddhist Pagoda.

Diting could discern all things in the world, and his abilities were perfectly suited for this situation.

"Diting, it seems you succeeded." Ksitigarbha smiled.

Chapter Nineteen: Bajie, so it was you.
