Taiyi Dao Fruit

The Buddha Palm struck, and space compressed within the palm, with unparalleled great strength merely releasing its aftershocks, causing drastic changes in the dome, and a sudden tumult between heaven and earth.

"Retreat!"

From behind, Shen Hou shouted loudly: "Retreat a hundred miles!"

As he spoke, the tumult had arrived. Shen Hou made a prompt decision, raising the God-Beating Whip, setting up a semicircular light shield. On the side, Guangli Bodhisattva also guided the strength of the monks, causing the mighty Buddha Light to surge.

"Boom!"

The light shield shook violently, the Buddha Light rippling, and under the transmission of waves, monks who ventured too close exploded to death.

The True Qi within them could not withstand the turmoil, directly shattering their bodies.

And this was merely the aftershock.

"Quickly retreat!"

Shen Hou and Guangli Bodhisattva quickly retreated while constantly deflecting the aftershocks, leaving the battlefield ahead to the third grade.

During the retreat, Shen Hou was always looking forward. He saw the sword light paused under the strike of the Buddha Palm, and his heart skipped a beat. Then he saw the compressed space being sliced by the sword light.

The Exterminating Immortal Sword Light cut through everything. Even the strike of the Buddha Palm and the compression of space could not stop this sword of Daoist Guang Cheng.

But soon, the Great Sun Tathagata Dharma Image changed its move. The folded Buddha Palm transformed into a handprint, with both palms facing upward and overlapping, with both thumbs touching, forming the Magic Realm Seal.

"Womb Realm Great Sun Tathagata Mudra."

The descending sword light was originally going to land on the overlapping Buddha Palms, but it encountered a rising Great Sun from within the palms, with a Mandala seal appearing inside, trapping the sword light within.

The Great Sun Buddha Light was neither born nor destroyed. Dividing one part of the sword light engendered another, continuously obstructing the Exterminating Immortal Sword Light.

Seeing this, Daoist Guang Cheng drew upon Yuan Gong again, the sword momentum soaring, but it inadvertently worsened his own injuries. Blood Qi erupted from the acupoints in his right arm, transforming into a blood sword that pierced through his vestment robe.

The Exterminating Immortal Sword Light was fiercely sharp, cutting through all, yet the body of Daoist Guang Cheng could not bear the strain. Manjusri's Womb Mandala affected him internally, directly impacting Daoist Guang Cheng's injured body with its formidable cultivation.

He couldn't deal with the Exterminating Immortal Sword Light but could deal with Daoist Guang Cheng.

In the fierce struggle between Daoist and Buddhist forces, Daoist Guang Cheng found it difficult to succeed with a single sword.

But at the same time, both Daoist Guangyuan and Mo Xuankong attacked from the left and right.

Mo Xuankong urgently wielded the Heavenly Will Sword, the supreme refined gold Qi enhancing the sword tip, fully displaying its killing power; Daoist Guangyuan, however, raised an ancient copper mirror, facing the Dharma Image.

The copper mirror had Yin and Yang sides, one red, one white. The white side shone in the open, causing the Great Sun Buddha Light to dim suddenly, resembling a Heavenly Dog devouring the sun, overshadowing its glory. A torrential deathly aura descended onto the body and spirit, seizing life and bestowing death, plunging a part of the dome into dimness akin to the appearance of Yinming.

The Third Grade Dao Fruit acquired by Daoist Guangyuan was "Golden Immortal · Chijizi," with the Dao Fruit Divine Power "Yin Yang Mirror" that could disturb Yin and Yang and determine life and death. Daoist Guangyuan further merged this divine power with the Qi Soldier Technique, refining his own magic artifact, enhancing its powers even more.

Even a third grade would not fare well under the gaze of the Yin Yang Mirror.

However, it seemed Manjusri was prepared. Below the arms of the Great Sun Tathagata Dharma Image, two more golden arms manifested, as though a golden bridge, carrying two figures.

On the left was Tan Wuwei, who raised a hand to summon the Dragon Flower Treasure Tree. The Buddha Light refined Qi pierced through the air like a scroll and collided with Mo Xuankong's sword. Numerous White Lotuses spread out, and layers of figures in the True Void Home saluted, chanting 'Lifeless' continuously.

In this time, Buddha Country's three Great Masters had collected a large amount of incense. Tan Wuwei's Dao Fruit was particularly adept at utilizing Incense Fire Thought Power. At this moment, she merged with the Dharma Image, supported by incense, and directly blocked Mo Xuankong's sword.

Meanwhile, Manjusri's true body wielded the sword with Telekinesis. The sword shadow split, transforming into a sword wheel, cutting tangible deathly intentions with the unreal.

The Wisdom Round Light behind his head penetrated the void and reality, allowing Manjusri to perceive enemy changes, while the Wisdom Sword moved through the void, slicing through layers of deathly intentions.

Though he had just dealt with the Exterminating Immortal Sword Light, he easily blocked the Yin Yang Mirror now, with the sword wheel spinning rapidly and the sword momentum being aplomb.

One side blocked the sword, while the other dealt with death, simultaneously defeating the opponent's onslaught.

But at this moment, a fierce thunderous power crushed the sword momentum. The Yin Yang Mirror of Daoist Guangyuan suddenly unleashed rolling thunderclap, the sky seeming to tear, and splendid explosions blasted the dome.

"Boom!"

With one thundercrack, the Buddha Light shattered, the great sun's brilliance completely obscured, and thunder fell from the sky, landing directly on the arm of the Great Sun Tathagata Dharma Image carrying Manjusri, transforming into a thunderous prison, engulfing Manjusri.

The Yin Yang Mirror of Daoist Guangyuan radiated bright light, the interwoven Yin and Yang Qi forming thunder, with a towering phantom manifesting behind him.

This was the Thunder Technique known for its dominance, surpassing even the thunder of the Taiping Sect Leader Zhang Zhixuan of the past.

Nevertheless, it seemed this couldn't harm Manjusri.

Within the raging thunderous prison, a sudden burst of radiant light occurred, a Sun Wheel ascended, its dazzling force disrupting Yin and Yang. The Sword Qi permeated the thunder, undermining and dissipating the extinct Yin force with Supreme Yang Qi.

The all-encompassing thunder vanished in an instant, revealing an extremely brilliant golden sword, held by Manjusri slicing away the lingering thunder light.

Daoist Guangyuan infused the Yin side with death, and the subsequent thunder was filled with Yin-extinct power, intending to destroy Manjusri's physical body at once.

Once outside the body of the Great Sun Tathagata Dharma Image, Manjusri was no longer in the Tathagata Undestructible True Body, defensively much weaker than before. Just catching this opportunity could heavily injure him.

But unfortunately, this move did not succeed.

The imbalance of the Thunder Technique, under the backlash of Yin Yang Qi, even caused Daoist Guangyuan to tremble violently, as if struck by thunder, with a trickle of blood already flowing from the corner of his mouth.
