Chapter 1945: Chapter 1941: Xue An Pays His Respects to the World Honored One! (First Update)
At this moment, Xue An floated before the statue of the Vajra Lion’s Roar, his expression stern as he watched the evil entities charging towards him. He suddenly raised his hand and struck down with a palm.
As Xue An moved, the Vajra statue behind him also slowly raised its hand and struck downwards.
Bang!
The giant palm, shining with dazzling golden light, descended upon the evil entities as if the heavens were collapsing.
As soon as they made contact, the black miasma evaporated instantly, and the giant palm, carrying supreme power, slowly pressed into the deep pit.
Wherever it passed, the black miasma was turned into nothingness.
But the black miasma seemed to be sentient, and upon sensing danger, it immediately retracted and condensed at the pit entrance, forming a thick defensive shield to stop the palm of the giant Vajra statue.
Bang!
With another loud noise, the giant palm solidly collided with the defensive formation formed of the black miasma.
In an instant, an invisible shockwave swept across hundreds of thousands of miles of land, toppling buildings as it went, yet miraculously, no one suffered even the slightest injury.
The monks were also pushed back, their faces filled with astonishment as they watched the scene before them.
"Could this benefactor be a reincarnation of a mighty Buddhist Sect entity?" the white-browed old monk muttered to himself.
Because only this could explain the immense power that Xue An currently possessed.
At this moment, a cracking sound was heard, and cracks began to appear on the defensive formation made of black miasma.
Finally.
The defensive formation could no longer withstand it and shattered violently, turning into dust scattered everywhere.
But the momentum of the giant palm did not stop, and it continued to descend slowly.
The ground trembled, and radiant light erupted.
In the bottomless pit, countless screams from the evil entities echoed faintly and then returned to silence.
With that palm, the entire world suddenly calmed, and the evil entities that usually emerged at this time were completely gone.
For over a hundred years, the land finally experienced a peaceful and serene night.
At the same time, the radiant light gradually dispersed, and the pit’s entrance had melted into a glass-like state, indicating the immense power of the recent strike.
Xue An dismissed the Vajra statue and landed before the pit entrance, peering into the bottomless hole with a shimmering gaze, then calmly stated.
"You all wait here; I will go down and take a look!"
Without waiting for the monks’ response, Xue An leapt down.
The monks hurriedly flew to the pit entrance, their faces all reflecting a grave expression.
"This benefactor is too reckless, going down alone like this—what if he encounters danger?" a monk said worriedly.
"Yes, indeed! Perhaps I should also go down to lend Benefactor Xue a hand!" The monk who had been stopped by Xue An previously was eager to help.
His straightforward nature made him feel indebted to Xue An for saving him, so he was determined to help now that Xue An might be in trouble.
But the white-browed old monk stopped them, "Wait! Do not act recklessly. Benefactor Xue clearly instructed us to wait here, so it’s best if we follow his words."
"As for you going down to assist him..." the white-browed old monk smiled wryly.
"With our current power, can we really aid him? Or would we just become a burden?"
Upon hearing this, all the monks fell silent.
The white-browed old monk calmly stated, "So the best we can do now is meditate and guard this place. After all, the Buddhist Force within Benefactor Xue is borrowed from us. The more sincerely we meditate here, the stronger his Buddhist Force will become, which is the greatest help we can offer!"
The monks nodded, then designated two for vigilance while the rest sat around the pit entrance, closing their eyes in meditation.
The immense power of the divine Buddhist will transformed into streaks of white light, flying into the pit.
These white lights would directly enhance Xue An through some mysterious means.
Meanwhile, Xue An was speedily traversing a void of darkness.
His speed was unmatched, resembling a beam of light in the darkness, passing by in an instant, the long tail flames behind him splitting the darkness in two.
At Xue An’s speed, in just this short amount of time, he could cross the countless miles of the Starry Domain.
Yet this expanse of darkness seemed endless, with no end in sight.
Anyone else facing such a strange situation would have likely stopped moving forward long ago.
After all, how vast could this Core Pure Land possibly be? Certainly not larger than the countless miles of the Starry Domain, right?
But Xue An showed no fear, continuing to speed ahead.
Because he could sense that in the darkness ahead, there awaited an unfathomable presence.
This was a mystical feeling arising from deep within his Divine Sense.
In fact, when Xue An first stepped into this city, he had faintly felt it.
At that time, the feeling was too weak, but after shattering the black miasma, it became clear.
This was why Xue An directly entered the pit.
But no matter the situation, one thing could be confirmed: this presence held no malice towards him.
After rushing forward for a period equivalent to the time taken to drink a cup of tea.
Suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared ahead.
The light was incredibly faint, yet in this boundless darkness, it pierced like a sharp sword.
Xue An slightly slowed his speed and then rushed towards the light with all his might.
Although it seemed close, it took Xue An the time equivalent to eating a meal to reach the light’s vicinity.
And then Xue An was stunned.
For he had envisaged countless scenarios, but he had never imagined he would be greeted with such a sight.
Before him appeared an enormous bronze door standing as tall as the heavens.
The bronze door was engraved with all sorts of strange runes, filled with an indescribable evil.
In front of the bronze door sat a monk on a lotus platform, his head bowed and eyes lowered, seemingly in meditation, with the previous light emanating from him.
The lotus platform beneath him firmly supported the bronze door, as if they had become one.
Xue An halted, observing it all.
At this moment, the monk slowly lifted his head, revealing a seemingly ordinary yet infinitely captivating face, then smiled slightly and began speaking, "At last, you have come!"
The voice was clear, yet bore supreme authority.
Xue An took a deep breath, his gaze clear as a mirror, then bowed with his hands together, "Xue An, pays respects to the Exalted One!"
The Exalted One!
Also known as the Worthy One, Knower of the World, Fulfilled in Conduct, Blissfully Gone, Sage of the World, Unexcelled One, Teacher of Heavenly Beings and Men, Tamer of Those to Be Tamed, among others.
Yet people most often called him:
Buddha!
Indeed!
This seemingly ordinary monk was the very Buddha who established the Pure Land Buddhist Country, surpassed the Goodness Wisdom Ground, directly entered the Dharma Cloud Ground, with strength equivalent to the Immortal Emperor Peak, just shy of advancing to Half-step Immortal Venerate.
It turns out this long-lost Sect Hierarch of Buddhist cultivation was never far from the Pure Land Buddhist Country, but had always been deeply embedded in this boundless darkness.
At this moment, the mighty Buddhist figure sat quietly on the lotus platform, a smile on his face, as if he had been waiting for Xue An for a long time.
