The Battle of the Age's Definitive Great Sages

"This is Chu Feng."

In the sky, Chu Feng faced the gaze of the Great Sage Sacred Heart and spoke. Just a moment ago, he was fishing on Miaomiao Mountain when the Dean suddenly descended from the sky, saying that his disciples were in danger. So he led him through a spatial array and arrived in the Precious Elephant Kingdom in an instant.

Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard the old man in the statue say that he wanted to take Nie Xiuyuan away, which led to the scene just now.

"The Great Sage Qiankun, he is the renowned Great Sage Qiankun of Heaven and Earth!"

Upon hearing the name Chu Feng, the spectators erupted in gasps of surprise.

"I never expected Nie Xiuyuan to become a disciple of the Great Sage Qiankun. No wonder he had the courage to come to the Precious Elephant Kingdom for revenge. This time, Precious Elephant Kingdom is in big trouble."

"I don't think so. No matter how strong the Great Sage Qiankun is, he is still just a Great Sage. But the Great Sage Sacred Heart can become a saint at any time. He has the substance of Saint, but not the name of Saint."

"..."

"Amitabha."

The weak voice of the Great Sage Sacred Heart came again from the golden Buddha statue.

"So it is the Great Sage Qiankun and earth in person. This old monk pays his respects."

Chu Feng returned the greeting with a slight fist and palm salute. "Greetings, Master."

The two of them were so polite from the start that they completely caught everyone present off guard.

The two of you don't look like you're about to fight at all. Could it be that this battle is about to be resolved peacefully?

The Great Sage Sacred Heart spoke up, "Great Sage Qiankun and Earth, did you come here to take Nie Xiuyuan and the others away?"

No, no.

Chu Feng smiled and said, "I came here only to help Xiuyuan fulfill his wish. From now on, he will be free to soar like a bird in the sky and leap like a fish in the sea. In the future, he will have a place among the Divine King and Divine Emperor of the Dao-Seeking Academy."

The reason I didn't mention the Immortal Emperor is that I didn't want to establish a fiefdom for that kid.

hiss...

The onlookers present gasped in shock upon hearing this.

They finally understood why the geniuses of the Dao Dao-Seeking Academy were all so arrogant; it was because they had a master named Great Sage Qiankun.

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage Sacred Heart remained unperturbed and continued, "So, the Great Sage Qiankun intends to watch the Precious Elephant Kingdom suffer devastation and be littered with corpses?"

"So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?"

Chu Feng paused, opened his folding fan, and said with a flourish, "If letting the blood flow like a river in the Precious Elephant Kingdom can bring Xiuyuan revenge, then let the blood flow like a river in the Precious Elephant Kingdom!"

"Amitabha Buddha, since the Great Sage Qiankun intends to allow his disciples to indiscriminately kill innocent people, then this old monk has no choice but to risk this crippled body to witness the Great Sage Qiankun's extraordinary skills."

The Great Sage Sacred Heart's tone remained unchanged, but the pressure emanating from him was even more terrifying than before.

"Old monk, don't suffer in others' shoes, and don't advise others to be kind. If I kill your whole family and you can still speak so calmly, then I'm willing to leave with my disciples. What do you think?" Chu Feng asked with a half-smile.

Silence. The only response to Chu Feng was the silence of the Great Sage Sacred Heart.

Chu Feng's smile vanished instantly, and he said calmly, "It seems you can't do it either. Let's settle this with our skills."

"Amitabha."

The Great Sage Sacred Heart uttered a long sigh, "Excellent, excellent. Since that is the case, then this old monk will experience your superior skills."

However, I must remind you, fellow Daoist, that the Buddhist path I cultivate is based on the 108 Truths as one cycle, and upon completing nine cycles, one enters the supreme Saint Realm. I have now cultivated three cycles. If I were to use too much force and suppress you, I hope you will not blame me in the afterlife."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the cultivators present changed drastically. Even a powerful figure like the Great Sage Blazing Sun, who came from the Holy Institute, looked at the Great Sage Sacred Heart with a hint of apprehension.

She exclaimed, "The Great Sage Sacred Heart truly lives up to his name! He has comprehended over three hundred True Essence of the Great Dao. Junior Brother Mountain-Mover, do you think Senior Brother Chu can defeat him?"

The Great Sage Mountain-Mover wanted to shake his head, but as if possessed, he nodded and said, "Chief Chu will definitely win. In my mind, he is the number one person after the Dean."

Great Sage Blazing Sun: "..."

Chu Feng laughed and said, "Old monk, you're a man of principle. Well then, I'm not afraid to tell you, the path I've walked on the True Essence of the Great Dao is far longer than yours. If I accidentally kill you, don't blame me for punching the Buddha's Retirement Home."

hiss...

Those present gasped upon hearing this. Although both spoke in calm tones, their words revealed a sharp and uncompromising confrontation.

What's most astonishing is that these two surpassed countless Great Sage on their path to comprehending the True Essence of the Great Dao.

Within the golden Buddha statue, the Great Sage Sacred Heart was not intimidated by Chu Feng's words. He remained calm and composed, and slowly said, "Since that's the case, then this old monk is even more eager to witness Qiankun's abilities."

As soon as he finished speaking, a radiant light emanated from the golden Buddha. The golden Buddha dissipated, and an old man wearing a red kasaya appeared in everyone's sight, standing on a five-colored lotus.

His face was gaunt and his body was as thin as a stick, as if a gust of wind could knock him over.

Yet this old monk, simply by standing in the sky, inspired awe and reverence in all living beings within a hundred miles.

Some cultivators of low strength even knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly and murmuring, "Greetings, Buddha..."

Chu Feng looked calmly at the old monk before him, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

This was the first time he had ever felt like he had met his match since he started taking on disciples.

He closed his folding fan and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, please make your move."

"Amitabha."

The Great Sage Sacred Heart with a compassionate expression said, "Please forgive me, layperson."

He now held three strings of prayer beads that resembled long dragons. Each string consisted of 108 beads, and each bead emanated the True Essence of the Great Dao.

The moment the Buddhist beads appeared, the Great Sage Sacred Heart seemed to experience a final burst of energy before death; all traces of his former dejection vanished, replaced by a holy and powerful aura.

He then sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and continuously twirled the prayer beads in his hands, a golden Faxiang enveloping his entire body.

" To Deliver All Living Beings!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Faxiang appeared, emitting a dazzling light. At that moment, the sun and moon lost their color, and the world was plunged into darkness.

Only the Boundless Buddha Light remained, and within that light, one could vaguely see the illusory image of the Buddha Kingdom transformed from the True Essence of the Great Dao.

The cultivators present were horrified by what they saw.

Even some of the Great Sage present couldn't help but exclaim, "This Great Sage Sacred Heart is truly terrifying!"

Of course, what everyone was most curious about was how the Great Sage Qiankun would react when he flew backwards, so they turned their gazes toward Chu Feng.

Everyone watched as Chu Feng was gradually swallowed up by the illusory image of the Buddha Kingdom. Surprisingly, Chu Feng remained unmoved, standing motionless in place.

Time ticked by, and just as Chu Feng's figure was about to disappear, he moved...
