Dharma Idol Heaven and Earth!

Qi Yun in the void, his body devoid of any trace of Buddhist aura or Bodhisattva appearance.

He changed into a plain, wide-sleeved, pure white robe, its material resembling clouds and mist, swaying gently with the lingering scent of time.

Her black hair was tied up with a simple wooden hairpin, her face was calm and gentle, but her eyes held a profound and serene quality, as if she had experienced many hardships and seen the truth.

His gaze calmly swept across the distant sky, where the True Lord and Bodhisattvas, each with a profound aura and a different expression, stood.

Then, a slight upturn of the corners of his mouth revealed a calm and composed smile.

He held one hand in front of him, his voice clear and melodious, neither too loud nor too soft, yet it carried clearly throughout the silent airspace that had just witnessed the battle of the heavens. "This humble Daoist greets fellow Daoists."

The moment the words "this humble Daoist" were uttered, it was as if a huge stone had been thrown into a calm lake!

Opposite them, the True Lord and Bodhisattvas, whose expressions had been solemn due to the oppressive power of the poetry and the strange phenomena, suddenly underwent a dramatic change in their expressions!

Especially the sixteen Shakyamuni Bodhisattvas, led by the Dragon Elephant Prajna Bodhisattva, their solemnity and doubt were like glass being struck by a heavy hammer, shattering inch by inch, replaced by a kind of fury after being completely fooled!

On the other hand, the True Lords of the Wudao Extreme Dharma True Lord and Demonic True Lord, such as Qingyuan True Lord Wendao, True Lord Fushi Xingyan, still retained the astonishment and scrutiny in their eyes at Qi Yun just triggering the River of Heaven's Will and breaking through the calamity.

But at the corners of their mouths, a strange and amused smile slowly crept up.

"Oh----"

A low, hoarse laugh, seemingly echoing from the depths of the Nine Nethers, rang out.

He stroked his short beard, his voice neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for every bodhisattva to hear clearly: "He spoke of—this humble monk—"

This seemingly casual remark, like a red-hot branding iron, was deeply etched into the hearts of all the Bodhisattvas!

The seven-colored Buddha light emanating from the Dragon Elephant Prajna Bodhisattva fluctuated violently. He stared intently at Qi Yun, who stood in the distance in a white robe, his aura unfathomable. He took a step forward, and ripples of power spread through the void beneath his feet. His voice, no longer as grand and compassionate as before, asked, "Fellow Daoist—what—is this—?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yun's smile remained unchanged, his demeanor still calm and composed, even carrying a hint of apology. He bowed again and said, "Previously, in order to protect myself, I had no choice but to pretend to Buddhist Order monk and carry out a deceptive act."

The act of deception was truly unavoidable.

He paused, his clear gaze meeting the fiery stare of the Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva, and said in a calm yet clear tone, "I hope all the Bodhisattvas and Dharma Venerables will forgive me."

"Please forgive me?!"

"What a helpless situation!"

What a truly unavoidable situation!

Another Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva temper was even more violent, could no longer contain himself. His body was engulfed in a burst of blue flames, and his three-headed, six-armed form appeared and disappeared. His voice was like a thunderclap.

"You wicked creature! You have stolen the World-Honored One's legacy, desecrated the True Intention of the Buddha, and dared to use this to fool us!"

If I don't cast you into the Avici Hell today, to be burned for eternity, this hatred will never be appeased!

"Thief! Should be executed!"

"An enemy of Buddha! He must be destroyed!"

The other Bodhisattvas also unleashed a torrent of Buddhist light, their killing intent as palpable as a chilling tide, instantly locking onto Qi Yun!

The anger of being deceived, the heartache of having the fortuitous opportunity of the "World-Honored One's Handwritten Scripture" stolen, and the boundless killing intent towards this audacious person who had played a trick on the entire Buddhist high-level organization, all erupted completely at this moment!

The immense pressure of the Bodhisattvas, combined with their respective Pure Land spiritual essences, were about to unleash a thunderous strike, utterly obliterating this "wicked creature" who dared to defile Buddhism and steal its treasures!

However-

"Clang!"

A clear, melodious sword cry rang out first, and a condensed, almost tangible, silver-white Sword Qi, like a chasm separating Yin and Yang, suddenly appeared between the several bodhisattvas and Qi Yun who were about to make their move!

At the edge of the Sword Qi, the void silently vanished.

"Venerable masters, you are all monks, who uphold compassion and strive to guide all sentient beings."

Qingyuan True Lord Wendao had already sheathed his sword and stood behind the Sword Qi, his blue robe upright and his tone calm and even, yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.

"Such a coordinated attack, using numbers to overwhelm the few, is perhaps... not quite appropriate?"

At the same time, the figure of Wudao Extreme Dharma True Lord quietly appeared on the side of another Bodhisattva.

Although no action was taken, the light, sound, and even the "presence" of that area began to subtly distort and collapse, creating a silent deterrent.

The starlight of True Lord Fushi Xingyan quietly laid down a maze, Changming True Lord Fuyan blocked the retreat route.

The True Lord from both the righteous and demonic sides displayed an astonishing "tacit understanding" at this moment!

They may still have disagreements with each other, or they may Qi Yun's wariness and calculations.

But faced with the enraged and frenzied Bodhisattvas, they unanimously chose to stop them!

I'd be happy to see Shi Xiu suffer a setback.

The Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva's cold gaze slowly swept over Qingyuan True Lord Wendao, Wudao Extreme Dharma True Lord, and the others. Anger surged in his heart, but he forcibly suppressed it.

How could he not know the thoughts of these righteous and demonic True Lord?

They sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, while the fisherman reaps the benefits.

but----

The Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva's gaze returned to Qi Yun, who stood alone in the distance, a chilling glint flashing deep within his eyes.

So what if a True Lord who has just succeeded in obtaining gold is a bit strange?

Faced with an absolute gap in fundamental strength, they can't even make a ripple!

Since the True Lord wants to stop us, then...

"In that case, let Junior Brother Mingwang seek guidance from this newly promoted fellow Daoist," the Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva said slowly, his voice regaining its cold calm.

Before the words were even finished, the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva who had first unleashed his killing intent could no longer contain himself!

"Roar!!"

With a thunderous roar, the Bodhisattva was the first to move!

Instead of rushing towards Qi Yun, who was being subtly protected by the True Lord, he stepped into the void and stomped heavily forward!

"Boom-!!!"

As he took that step, a magnificent, real, and wondrous realm, radiating endless wrathful flames and demon-subduing power, rapidly unfolded towards Qi Yun's location, centered on his footing!

This realm is incredibly realistic!

The moment it appeared, it seemed to replace the original Principle heaven and earth in that area!

Within the realm, the earth is scorched earth burning with blue karmic fire, the sky is a blood-red firmament rolling with wrathful thunder, and the air is filled with the blazing Buddhist power that burns away afflictions and subdues Outer Dao!

One after another, towering and majestic Wrathful Wisdom King deities manifested in the realm, wielding various magical Law Artifact and emitting silent roars!

Within this realm, the complete Principle of "wrath," "subduing demons," and "purification"—the path cultivated by this Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva throughout his life—are permeated!

Here.

His will is the Heaven's Will!

His way is the truth!

[Divine Court]

It evolved from the Foundation Establishment Realm Heaven, and through the [Fruition Status], it incorporated the lifelong insights and enlightenment of the True Lord Bodhisattva, thus achieving the [Great Dao Heaven and Earth]!

If we say that the Foundation Establishment Realm Heaven is a cultivator temporarily transforming a region into a "geographical advantage" for themselves.

Then the [Divine Court] is the divine kingdom that completely transforms a whole world into the divine kingdom of the Divine Court's ruler!

Within this Divine Court, the ruler's words become law, and all paths follow, exerting near-absolute suppression on intruders!

This is the true essence of the authority and power that distinguishes the True Lord and Bodhisattva from those who cultivate in lower realms!

The Divine Court of the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva, [Wisdom King Heaven], suddenly unfolded, carrying a terrifying pressure that could burn mountains and boil seas and suppress all demons. It was like a world of Buddhist fire that came out of nowhere, heading towards Qi Yun, covering and suppressing him from above!

Faced with a blow powerful enough to level thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, Qi Yun remained standing, his white robe fluttering slightly, looking up at the rapidly expanding, raging world that was burning the sky.

"The Divine Court, huh?

"Perfect."

He slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers pointing towards the descending world of fury, and pressed down into the void.

"I also have a method, and I would like to learn it from you, fellow Daoist."

Facing the overwhelming Divine Court that pressed down like a burning world, Qi Yun remained calm.

"Buzz--!!!"

A deep rumble, seemingly originating from the source of the Great Dao, exploded from the void behind him!

A Great Sun, without dazzling majesty or imposing presence, yet possessing boundless radiance, rose with a thunderous roar from nothingness!

This day is neither gold nor red, but a pure, intense white, as if containing the very essence of all light and heat in the world!

It is not still, but slowly rotating. With each rotation, a radiant light bursts forth, carrying a supreme meaning that illuminates the entire world, penetrates all illusions, and dominates reality!

The light reached so far that even the surging azure karmic flames and blood-red lightning at the edge of the rapidly expanding [Raging Fire Wisdom King Realm] Divine Court were forced back for a moment.

At the point where light and flame met, space groaned under the strain!

This method is called ---- Dharma Idol Heaven and Earth!

It does not rely on Fruition Status or external things, but rather it elevates and manifests the ultimate Daoist intent and will of "returning to the true nature of the Great Sun and dominating the present" with supreme thoughts, transforming it into a magnificent Dharma form that reverses reality and transforms heaven and earth!

It is not about creating an inner world, but about using absolute will to temporarily replace and cover an outer world!

"Go."

Qi Yun uttered a single word.

Behind it, the blazing white Great Sun, carrying the immense power to crush all obstacles and reshape the current order, crashed head-on into the [Raging Fire Wisdom King Realm] that was pressing down!

The next instant -

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!!!"

An indescribably terrifying roar erupted!

The blazing white light of the Great Sun collided violently with the world of divine fire of the Bright King, which was a mix of blue and red!

"Snap! Snap! Snap-!!!"

The dense, chilling sound of space shattering erupted like popping beans!

Centered on the point of impact, countless terrifying spatial cracks, some thick and some thin, with chaotic colors flowing along their edges, spread rapidly in all directions like a wildly spreading spider web!

Deep within each crack, bizarre and turbulent void currents could be vaguely seen, emanating a suction force that devoured everything, mercilessly tearing away nearby dust, shattered Buddhist and Daoist light, and even the occasional wisp of Spiritual Qi, annihilating them without a trace!

The aftershocks from the collision alone created a terrifying scene of devastation and cracks across an area of tens of thousands of miles!

That blazing white Great Sun, with its boundless light, acted like a stabilizing force, firmly resisting the downward pressure from the raging world!

The [Raging Fire Wisdom King Realm] was not to be outdone. Within the Divine Court, billions of Wrathful Wisdom King phantoms roared in unison, their demon-subduing power and karmic fire burning power pushed to their limits. Blue and red flames and lightning frantically impacted and eroded the light of the Great Sun, attempting to ignite and burn it!

Two immense forces formed a brief, breathtaking stalemate in mid-air!

Light and flames intertwined and annihilated, the laws of nature and will clashed violently!

Evenly matched!

It's actually a close match?!

This result caused the pupils of all the True Lord and Bodhisattvas watching to shrink slightly.

Especially the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva made the move, the fury and killing intent on his three-headed, six-armed face froze slightly.

Immediately, an awkwardness and gloom slowly emerged.

Evenly matched? Neither side has the upper hand?

No!

He attained the Bodhisattva Fruition Status over eight hundred years ago!

The Divine Court has been honed and managed for hundreds of years, and is now firmly established and powerful!

And this guy on the other side has only just been promoted to True Lord!

To draw with a newcomer—for him—was already a defeat.

Meanwhile, under the blazing Great Sun, a thoughtful realization flashed across Qi Yun's eyes.

"Just as I thought—" he murmured to himself.

He walked a new path unlike any other, not the Xuanhuang Dao Attainment Method.

Without the support of a [Fruition Status], it is naturally impossible to open up a small world of [Divine Court] containing the complete Great Dao and being real and true.

Only by combining the power of this immortal body with the essence of the Dao can a Dharma form be forged.

One is to build a stable divine kingdom from the inside out; the other is to transform reality from the outside in.

They are very different in form and follow opposite paths.

But judging from the result of this first head-on collision—in terms of pure strength—they seem to be almost evenly matched.

"It seems—"

Qi Yun raised his eyes, his gaze piercing through the chaotic front line where blazing white light and crimson karmic fire intertwined, landing on the Wrathful Wisdom King Bodhisattva with a gloomy expression in the distance, a sharp smile appearing on his face.

"To truly defeat you, fellow Daoist, relying solely on this [Dharma Idol Heaven and Earth] seems insufficient."

"It seems I'll have to show you some real skills."
