The Ancestor of All Demons

The eighty-eight hundred-foot tall Golden Buddhas were blown to pieces by the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader using a large amount of Mystics Yin Divine Thunder and Soundless Divine Thunder as soon as he made a move!

As the Golden Buddhas exploded, the eighty-eight Buddha Beads of Master You Tan also shattered simultaneously.

Fireworks with lightning, as the Buddha Beads shattered, the Blood Shadow Remnant Souls collected earlier emerged once more.

Master You Tan was greatly shocked. She knew the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader was formidable, but she hadn't expected him to be this powerful. Instantly, she realized she couldn't contend with this old demon!

With the Golden Buddha shattered, the Buddha Light of the Xin Ru Array resumed, becoming denser and stronger, casting forth golden light like surging tides, and the bloody pit on the ground quickly vanished.

The entire Jiuhua Mountain area once again brimmed with golden light, appearing sacred and majestic!

The Heavenly Lust Sect Leader drove the Mystics Yin Black Border Divine Evil from the south to the north, like a tidal wave, blotting out the sky and sun. Master You Tan chanted the Buddha's name, exerting her full power, unleashing vast amounts of Separation and Reunion Divine Light to counter it.

The old demon let out a long howl, and countless Mystic Yin Demon-Gathering Banners appeared out of nowhere within the black evil.

The black banners fluttered, revealing tens of thousands of beast souls collected by the old demon in the Northwest Sea—hundred-foot-long giant whales, thousand-clawed octopuses, and large sea eels, among others, drifting and swimming amid the black evil, causing monstrous waves that battered the northern golden Buddha light.

Upon collision, the golden Buddha light, like a solid wall, was shattered by the black evil beast souls, fragmenting and recombining to form large patches of black waves and gold chunks. Roars of countless beasts mingled with dense explosion sounds, creating a sense of the sky collapsing and the earth cracking!

Against this old demon, Master You Tan could barely defend herself, and the demon leaders coming from the Star Constellations Sea immediately grew emboldened.

However, very soon, from the southeast came innumerable chanting voices with thunderous sound and golden Buddha light spreading over the sky—Master Fen Tuo made her move!

Shi Feiyang instructed Master You Tan to act when seeing the demon horde from the Star Constellations Sea, and Master Fen Tuo to act when seeing the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader.

Master Fen Tuo, more straightforward than Master You Tan, had long wished to join forces with Master You Tan to cleanse the demon horde. Finally, as the sky filled with dark clouds, the old demon's Mystics Yin Black Border Evil stretched over ten thousand miles, even engulfing Huangshan, prompting Master Fen Tuo to ascend and cast her spell.

The Divine Nun unleashed the Great Sumeru Divine Light, which quickly manifested as Sumeru Mountain upon its appearance.

In Buddhism, Sumeru Mountain is the center of the world, running through the six realms, with the sun, moon, and seas orbiting around Sumeru Mountain.

Surrounding this mountain is the Salt Sea, while East Victory Divine Continent, Southern Continent, and others sit upon the sea. "Four Heavenly Kings" of Heaven, where the Four Heavenly Kings reside, are situated on the slopes east, west, south, and north of Sumeru Mountain. The "Emperor's Heaven" where Indra resides is at the summit of Sumeru Mountain.

Sumeru Mountain serves as the central pivot of a world, symbolizing immovability. Master Fen Tuo's most famous Great Sumeru Vajra Hand condenses into a giant hand for capturing people, each having its own forte, akin to Yan Yingmu.

All the immortal beings know that upon seeing a Golden Light Giant Hand descending from the sky, if it's a Daoist technique, it's by Yan Yingmu; if it's a Buddhist skill, it must be by Master Fen Tuo.

Master You Tan's Separation and Reunion Divine Light excels in its variability—unpredictable, endless, dazzling to the eyes, impossible to keep up with.

Master Fen Tuo's Sumeru Divine Light excels in its immutable nature. The Buddha light solidifies like Sumeru Mountain cast in gold, this mountain keeps growing, pushing forward forcefully.

In the north, Master You Tan also used the Gift Box Divine Light to gather and hold back the black evil, but it kept being shattered by the black evil, retreating step by step, the covered area continuously shrinking.

Master Fen Tuo came from the south, indeed strong and domineering, the Sumeru Light Mountain exceedingly hard, instead pushing the Mystics Yin Black Evil steadily forward.

The Heavenly Lust Sect Leader sensed an attack and immediately mobilized large numbers of Mystics Yin Divine Banners to float and flutter across the sky, with countless demon beast souls of various sizes roaring and crashing against the Buddha light with a black tide.

Master Fen Tuo revealed her Golden Body, also standing a hundred feet tall, seated atop Sumeru Mountain formed by the Buddha light, with her Mountain Guardian Treasure, the Dharma Flower Vajra Wheel, hovering above her head.

Years ago, she had planned to ascend to Nirvana, entrusting this Vajra Wheel to her disciple Ling Xuehong.

Due to her immense power, she rarely engaged with others in combat, and no one dared provoke her. When confronting truly uninformed demon evildoers, one Sumeru Vajra Hand would catch them and resolve the battle.

This time, to deal with Xin Ru, he temporarily took this treasure back from Yang Jin's hands, transforming it into a massive golden ring with a diameter of a thousand miles. Inside, it was densely packed with twinkling golden starlight, condensed from Buddha Light, resembling a star ring. It spun at high speed, generating a silver light rain, with golden and silver star rain flying everywhere, extraordinarily beautiful, forcibly opening the pervasive black evil, suspending it above "Sumeru Mountain," impervious to all evils!

Yang Jin stood at a distance, gazing at his master. Watching this left him dazzled and awestruck: "My master's Divine Power is truly unfathomable, something I can hardly imagine."

Thinking about his own journey of cultivation since the time of the Northern Song Dynasty, having gone through a tribulation and transforming from Ling Xuehong to Yang Jin, he realized that without those changes, he might have ascended to the Pure Land, though his status definitely wouldn't be very high. To cultivate to his master's level, he'd need to follow Amitabha Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva for several more kalpas in the Pure Land...

Master Fen Tuo, with the Dharma Flower Vajra Wheel above his head and the Sumeru Mountain formed from Buddha Light beneath him, released a series of Great Intense Fire Thunder Sound Divine Banners, which, when unleashed, spewed forth endless Buddha Light and Divine Flames. Each fire strike was accompanied by a thunder sound, mixed with chants of countless Arhats. Striking the black evil, it exploded into clusters of fierce flames. In an instant, the thousands of miles of black evil ahead were filled with leaping fireballs, which, upon exploding again, released boundless fiery light rain.

Master Fen Tuo, knowing the power of the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader, exerted his full strength, forcibly driving the black evil from Yellow Mountain to Jiuhua Mountain!

Seeing Master Fen Tuo in action, Master You Tan was also invigorated, once again casting with all his might, chanting the Buddha's name, and invoking the Buddha's blessing.

Buddhism speaks of the concept of the Three Buddha Worlds, divided into Horizontal Three Buddha Worlds and Vertical Three Buddha Worlds.

The Horizontal Three Buddha Worlds relate to space: Central Shakyamuni Buddha, Western Infinite Light Amitabha Buddha, and Western Lapis Lazuli Body Medicine Buddha, representing the Buddhas of the ten directions of east, west, south, and north.

The Vertical Three Buddha Worlds relate to time: Past Dipamkara Ancient Buddha, Present Shakyamuni Buddha, and Future Maitreya Buddha, representing Buddhas appearing at every time period from past to future.

Thus, the representative Three Buddha Worlds consist of five figures, while those symbolized behind them are the infinite multitude of Buddhas across Heavenly Worlds through time eternal.

Master You Tan summoned the blessings of all Buddhas to counterattack, revealing the figures of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas within the Separation and Reunion Divine Light.

Seeing this, Master Fen Tuo, sensing a resonance, likewise acted according to the Dharma in the south. Both sides simultaneously released Buddha Light, piercing through the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader's miles of black evil in one fell swoop.

The Buddha Light linked in the air, forming a golden arch bridge. On the bridge appeared many figures of Buddhas, their emitted Buddha Light dazzlingly bright. A thick cloud of light spread layer upon layer, forcefully pressing the endless black evil below. Among them, golden light lotuses bloomed one after another, floating as if on a deep dark body of water, revealing inside them Bodhisattvas, Arhats...

The two Divine Nuns, for the first time ever, working together to subdue the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader, summoned the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and Arhats of all directions and Three Buddha Worlds. Each manifested their avatar to perform miraculous deeds here, equivalent to hosting a Lotus Pool Sea Conference in this Five Turbid Evil World!

The Heavenly Lust Sect's endless Mystic Yin Evil was completely suppressed under the gold bridge and lotuses by the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. He roared in fury, continuously casting spells to stir up trouble.

Yet restrained by the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the turbulent waves could barely rise an inch, forming only light ripples between the golden lotuses.

Enraged and flustered, the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader let out a world-shattering roar: "What foul Buddhists, broken Bodhisattvas! You may deceive and suppress others, but how can you deal with me? You filthy nuns, I'll smash your Buddhas of all directions and Three Buddha Worlds, so you all end up on my Mystic Yin Divine Banner!"

He resembled a deep-sea monster, hiding in the bottomless thick black evil, his form unseen, only his roar audible.

Fen Tuo and You Tan, the two Divine Nuns, aware of the power of this old Demon, increased the intensity of their incantations. Though separated by thousands of miles, they chanted the Buddha's name in eerie unison, each syllable in resonant harmony. As they cast spells, more and more golden lotuses bloomed in the sky. Initially, they were scattered like stars in the boundless black evil, but in a blink, they covered it entirely.

With so many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas suppressing him, even the Heavenly Lust Sect Leader found it unbearable. He exhausted himself trying to drive this endless black region, but he could no longer stir up great waves. The Mystic Yin Banner also lost much of its efficacy. The endless Demon Beast Souls collided with the lotuses, only to be repelled back time and again, like ants attempting to shake a tree, unable to shake it in the slightest.

This old Demon, carrying a stubborn breath, unleashed the Mystic Yin True Water he had obtained from the West Pole Sect.

Mystic Yin True Water, like True Water, can spread into a vast lake from a single drop. In ancient times, Yu the Great collected all the Mystic Yin True Water to the West Pole Mountain, allowing it to rise and fall continuously under the grinding of sunlight and Gang Wind, gradually consuming it. The remaining essence, when unleashed, could raise the entire world's sea level by a hundred feet, flooding not just the small islands overseas, but also the entire Central Earth Continent, with only some high mountains left exposed.

After being refined through sacrifice by the sinister old Demon, it became even more formidable.

He unleashed the True Water in a frenzy, merging it with the endless Mystic Yin Black Evil, forming a thick black liquid that truly became an endless sea frontier.

Initially gaseous, now liquid, it stretched across ten thousand miles, floating in the sky. Once it fell, it would turn into a cataclysm for the human world, terrifying all who beheld it.

Refined Mystic Yin True Water, merging with Mystic Yin Black Evil, possessed a yin-chilling quality. For ordinary people, falling in for a bathe was not the issue. Inhaling even a wisp of vapor would disperse all their yang energy, extinguishing their life force, resulting in untimely death, with even their soul being absorbed by the water, becoming a resentful spirit within.

The Heavenly Lust Sect Leader continuously unleashed water, splitting it into two streams: one crashing south towards Master Fen Tuo, and the other incessantly pounding towards Master You Tan in the north, all the while rising steadily higher.
