"Dong!..."
As though a heavy punch had slammed into the canopy of the sky, a deafening tremor abruptly resounded throughout this world. Through that Moonshadow Stone, it spread to every corner of the Five Heavens.
The sound also jolted the dazed spectating cultivators awake.
Rumble...
At that very moment, the dozens of golden wheels all plunged into the Buddha statue Xu Taiping held aloft.

After the golden wheels merged into the statue, countless phantom scripture scrolls suddenly scattered from within it like colorful ribbons.
At the same time, lingering Buddhist chanting drifted from the passage formed of auspicious clouds and Buddha light.
It sounded as though countless monks were chanting scriptures and offering prayers.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!...
Soon, accompanied by sharp whistles through the air, the countless phantom scripture scrolls dancing across the sky began streaming back into the Buddha statue like a receding tide.

Boom!
After the final page of scripture returned to the statue, Xu Taiping could no longer bear its weight and lowered his hands.
Thud!
Finally, the Buddha statue crashed heavily onto the lotus throne.

In a single breath, the clouds of heavenly might that had swirled around it were replaced by auspicious clouds and Buddha light.
At this sight, the Buddhism disciples felt as though they had returned to the days when the Buddhist Kingdom had flourished.
"Thud!"
Just then, Xu Taiping, his qi and blood and divine soul almost completely exhausted, toppled backward onto the ground.
