Chapter 289 The Underworld is getting serious this time.
"This is bad..." Zhunti's expression changed drastically.
"The power of the resentful Buddha, stimulated by something, has begun to go berserk and unleash its full force..."
As soon as they finished speaking, the resentful Buddha essence within both of them erupted simultaneously!
"ah--!!!"
A heart-wrenching scream echoed throughout Mount Ling!
The right half of the body that was being guided also began to slowly turn gray.
Zhunti was completely enveloped in gray-black resentment energy, his body essentially completely overwhelmed.
The Holy Soul continued its stubborn resistance.
Behind them, the hundred-foot-tall golden statue of the Vengeful Buddha trembled with excitement.
Their sacred bodies have been almost completely corrupted.
This means it can begin to devour the Holy Soul.
......
The Underworld, the Hall of Peaceful Mind.
The thirteen ancestral witches gathered and, through the Mirror of Reincarnation of a Peaceful Mind,
I clearly saw everything that happened at Lingshan.
"Tsk tsk tsk, how pitiful!" Gonggong shook his head.
"Zhunti and the other two are, after all, saints of the Heavenly Dao."
He was actually turned into this grotesque state by the backlash of his own internal power...
I had previously wondered why those two would become Buddhas back then.
"I really don't know what that old codger Hongjun did to those two?"
"It is the root of resentment towards Buddha."
Tianqi said slowly.
"That is the evil power condensed from resentment in chaos, completely different from the power in the primordial world."
"Hongjun really went to great lengths to keep us in check back then!"
"So now they're reaping what they sowed."
Zhu Rong nodded in satisfaction, "He deserved it!"
"However..." Dijiang frowned.
"The power of resentment towards the Buddha is dominant; even the Bodhisattvas Jieyin and Zhunti can only prevent themselves from completely losing control."
In that case, the millions of Buddhist followers on Mount Ling will likely not fare well!
"Without a second thought, those people will definitely be corrupted by resentment and turned into puppets of vengeful Buddhas."
Zhu Jiuyin continued the conversation.
"I see the possibilities for what's to come in the long river of time."
If left unchecked, the entire Western Continent of Hezhou will become a hell of resentment, causing widespread suffering and death.
"Furthermore, the journey to the West that Wukong and his companions are currently undertaking may undergo uncontrollable changes!"
Upon hearing this, the hall fell silent.
After a long while, Pingxin spoke softly:
"Why don't we do something about it and try to save them?"
"Save? Save my ass!" Gonggong glared.
"They brought this upon themselves; their controlled puppet souls cannot be freed, and this does not count as an achievement of the underworld."
Why rescue them?!
Don't forget, they didn't offer any help when Houtu was reincarnated.
"But if they perish, the power of the resentful Buddha will go out of control, and the hundreds of millions of lives in Xiniu Hezhou will suffer."
Houtu, the ancestral witch, said softly.
"Those beings may have been misled by Buddhism, but they are innocent."
Tianqi suddenly laughed as he watched the group arguing back and forth.
"Brothers, have you misunderstood?"
All the ancestral witches looked at him.
Why should we save Buddhism?
Apocalypse stood up, his eyes filled with mockery.
"Jieyin and Zhunti are being devoured by the vengeful Buddha; Mount Ling is about to transform into a hell of resentment..."
Isn't this a golden opportunity?
"A godsend?" Di Jiang pondered.
"The mess that Hongjun created, and he doesn't even bother to clean it up himself."
"Isn't that a golden opportunity?"
"Xiniu Hezhou is the foundation of Buddhism. It is vast and sparsely populated, but rich in resources."
More importantly, it is the core of the Western Earth Vein.
Previously, the connection between the Earth Book and the western ley lines was significantly hindered, and the effect was not very obvious.
If we deal with them directly now,
The power of the Primordial Guardian Array can be increased by another 30%.
Tianqi paused, then said with a look of longing:
"Moreover, eliminating the external forces of the Buddha and purifying Xiniuhezhou is a meritorious act of immeasurable virtue."
"The Heaven and Earth Society approves, all living beings are grateful, and we have a legitimate cause."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jiuyin's eyes lit up.
"You mean we should take this opportunity to destroy Buddhism and bring Xiniu Hezhou back to humanity?"
"Exactly." Apocalypse nodded.
"Our brothers already possess the authority of Heaven, and we are acting on behalf of Heaven!"
The power of the vengeful Buddha wreaks havoc upon the primordial world. We, as ancestral sorcerers, govern the underworld and protect all living beings.
They also have a responsibility to eliminate the threat.
He looked around at everyone:
"Most importantly, the resentful Buddha power within Jieyin and Zhunti's bodies was created by Hongjun."
By eliminating the vengeful Buddha, we are essentially slapping Hongjun in the face.
But what does he dare to say?
If he dares to obstruct it, he is admitting that he sowed the seeds of disaster back then.
That means being an enemy of the entire primordial world.
"Brilliant!" Zhu Rong laughed heartily.
"In this way, we not only gained territory and increased our strength, but also stood on the moral high ground!"
That old bastard Hongjun can only suffer in silence!
"It would be best if we killed Jieyin and Zhunti a few more times to deplete Hongjun's resources!"
"What about Nuwa and the Heavenly Court?!"
Xuanming asked.
"Nuwa won't interfere!" Tianqi affirmed.
"She had already made her stance clear by sending the stone earlier, and the destruction of Buddhism would be beneficial to humanity and would not affect her fortune, so she was happy to see it happen."
As for the Heavenly Court, they are basically all disciples of Tongtian Daoist.
As long as Haotian doesn't do anything foolish, no one will cause trouble!
The ancestral witches were filled with excitement upon hearing this.
That's more like it!
I've endured and yielded for so many years.
Finally, we can have a proper showdown!
"Then it's settled!"
Dijiang made the decision.
"Little brother, tell me, how should we fight?"
"How else can we fight?!"
Our thirteen Grand Luo Immortals have the advantage over the two Buddhas!
"Let's send everyone out immediately, don't let them escape!"
Apocalypse was equally excited.
"The thirteen Ancestral Witches all appeared, with Senior Sister Pingxin overseeing the situation in the Underworld..."
We must act with overwhelming force.
"A lightning strike on Mount Ling, purifying Xiniu Hezhou!"
"What about time?"
"Now! Let's begin preparations immediately!" Apocalypse looked westward.
"The power of the resentful Buddha has just gone berserk, and Jieyin and Zhunti can barely suppress it. The area outside Mount Ling has not been completely eroded yet."
By taking action now, we can minimize casualties.
This will also make it easier to arrange for Wukong and his companions to complete the great quest of Journey to the West!
"Okay, let's get started preparing now!"
The ancestral witches shouted in unison, filled with excitement.
The will to fight soared to the heavens!
......
The next day,
The underworld officially raised the banner of "punishing the vengeful Buddha and purifying the Western world."
Zhu Jiuyin directly projected the current scene of Mount Ling onto every corner of the prehistoric world where there were living beings, using his great supernatural powers.
The tragic fates of Jieyin and Zhunti, the horror of Buddhist disciples being corrupted by resentment.
And the wails of the creatures of Xiniu Hezhou...
All living beings in the primordial world could see it clearly.
More importantly, Apocalypse seized the opportunity to draw upon the power of heaven and earth.
He communicated with the will of the primordial world and made a declaration:
"The power of the resentful Buddha, chaotic and evil, harms the primordial world, eroding its very essence; its sins are unforgivable..."
Today, I, the ancestral sorcerer of the underworld, inherit the will of Father Pangu and wield the authority of the underworld.
Let us eradicate this scourge and restore the bright and clear world to its former glory!
The sound resounded throughout the primordial world, making every living being in the primordial world acknowledge the righteousness of this campaign against the West.
Immediately, heaven and earth resonated, and golden light of merit descended, blessing the sky above the underworld.
Clearly, this campaign has also been approved by Heaven and Earth.
At that moment, the other forces understood.
The underworld is serious this time.
