Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 1080: Chapter 457: Nine Provinces Barrier Reactivated! (Part 2)

As the heavenly force returns, the great calamity is imminent, and the heavenly fate is in complete disarray.

”Even I cannot calculate it.”

”The force of the great calamity has reached such an extent; it’s about to erupt at any moment.”

Duo Bao Tathagata felt a heaviness in his heart; with his cultivation, he still couldn’t deduce the cause and effect.

”Samantabhadra, what on earth happened?”

Duo Bao Tathagata put down his hands, his voice low, with an undeniable authority.

”World Venerable.”

”The Stone Monkey has left the island.”

”As per the original plan, the disciple let the Stone Monkey leave the island to seek longevity, then to manipulate him to return to Nan Zhanbu Continent to complete our Buddhist Sect’s grand plan.”

”But as he left the island...”

Samantabhadra clasped his hands together and recounted everything that happened in the East Sea in detail.

From the appearance of the Stone Monkey to its entry into Qin, even the details of its encounter with the powerful figures of Qin were revealed without reservation.

After all, the matter of the Stone Monkey was originally entrusted to him, and with this incident having gone awry, he was also responsible.

After hearing the cause and effect.

Duo Bao Tathagata’s expression changed completely, a flash of shock and anger in his eyes, followed by a grave countenance.

Jin Chanzi, as the first pawn of the Buddhist Sect, had already left their control, reincarnated within the Daqin Heavenly Court’s realm.

Precisely because of this matter, the Buddhist Sect has already felt powerless against Qin, causing a major disturbance in their plans.

And now.

This Stone Monkey, even more crucial to the Buddhist Sect, bearing many hopes, has also fallen into Qin’s hands, out of their control once again!

For the Buddhist Sect, for the flourishing of Buddhist Law, for the Westward Journey Tribulation, what this means, Duo Bao Tathagata is well aware.

”World Venerable, what should we do now?”

”If truly allowing the Stone Monkey to break free, then both Scripture Seekers we selected have escaped our grasp, how can our Buddhist Sect survive the great calamity?”

Samantabhadra raised his head and asked gravely.

Duo Bao Tathagata wore a thoughtful look, his expression heavy.

The entire hall of Leiyin Temple was silent, only the lingering sound of Buddha chants reverberated softly.

After a long while.

Duo Bao Tathagata finally spoke slowly: ”Qin Court has gone too far in this matter.”

”This matter relates to the rise and fall of our Buddhist Sect, and we must not allow Qin Court to control it easily.”

Hearing Duo Bao Tathagata’s cold and stern words, Samantabhadra was also startled.

How many years has it been.

This was his first time seeing the Buddha so enraged.

”So what does the World Venerable mean?” Samantabhadra inquired with trepidation.

”I will personally send an avatar into Qin Court to negotiate,” Duo Bao Tathagata said solemnly.

”The Stone Monkey.”

”Must be in the hands of our Buddhist Sect.”

”He is more important to us than Jin Chanzi.”

”No matter the cost!”

”This Stone Monkey, our Buddhist Sect must bring him back,” Duo Bao Tathagata said.

”World Venerable, Qin Court is no longer the mortal Qin Court of the past!”

”Qin Court is mighty, even the Heavenly Court cannot subdue them, and now Quasi-Saints cannot enter the Four Great Continents; this is not favorable for our Buddhist Sect.”

”World Venerable, with this journey, I’m afraid... I’m afraid it’s difficult to bring him back,” Samantabhadra showed a look of concern.

”No problem.” Duo Bao Tathagata waved his hand,

”Though this avatar of mine does not have all the divine skills of my true self, without a Quasi-Saint appearing, it also possesses the battle power of a Quasi-Saint, enough to handle it.”

”If Qin Court is wise, they will return the Stone Monkey, but if not...”

A cold glint flashed in Duo Bao Tathagata’s eyes, and the Buddha Light around him flickered, revealing a hint of killing intent.

Even within the Buddha Light, there was a trace of unclear Demonic Qi.

”As the great calamity of heaven and earth is about to begin, our Buddhist Sect is not something Qin Court can contend with.”

Having said that.

Duo Bao Tathagata’s Buddha Light suddenly flourished, and a phantasmal figure slowly separated from his body.

Also seated on a Lotus Platform, the rich Buddha Light made it seem as if a true Buddha had come to the human world.

This avatar looked exactly like his true form, only the aura around it was slightly weaker.

Yet.

Still powerful.

”Stay here and wait.”

”Once I bring back the Stone Monkey, you’ll need to complete the follow-up.”

Duo Bao Tathagata instructed Samantabhadra.

Then, with a flash of the avatar’s form, it sped in the direction of Qin.

Traversing through the void.

In an instant, it was thousands of miles away.

Leaving the realm of Spirit Mountain.

Duo Bao Tathagata’s avatar headed directly towards the capital of Qin.

The Buddha Light radiated around the avatar, where it passed, the void like torn silk rippled layer by layer.

Capital of Qin, Xianyang!

A void rift unfolded.

Duo Bao Tathagata’s avatar astonishingly emerged from the void above.

Endless Buddha Light instantly illuminated downwards.

The entire Xianyang City was enveloped in this Buddha Light.

”What’s that up there?”

”Such strong Buddha Light.”

”Could it be a high monk from our Qin Buddhist Temple?”

”Impossible.”

”Even high monks wouldn’t dare to act so brazenly in our Qin Capital.”

”It seems to be the enemy.”

”That form, it looks so much like the Buddhas of those Western Buddhist Sects.”

”How dare they offend our Qin?”

”...”

In Xianyang City, countless people of Qin raised their heads curiously, looking at the sky.

If it were a few hundred years ago.

The appearance of Duo Bao Tathagata in this manner would definitely have made countless people of Qin prostrate themselves, shouting for immortals and Buddhas, praying for blessings.

But now.

The people of Qin, with curiosity, looked on, without reverence.

Within the Daqin Heavenly Court.

The people of Qin revered only the majestic imperial power, honored only the Heavenly Emperor of Qin, and the Emperor’s son of Qin.

They esteemed the countless heroes and elite soldiers who served the nation with loyalty.

To immortals and Buddhas.

Qin held only hatred, only a fighting spirit.

The grudge of the Heavenly Court’s past invasion was remembered by the people of Qin.

Moreover, all Qin people could see through the Tian Xuan Mirror the past attack of the Heavenly Court, intending to cleanse Qin with blood; these scenes are embedded in the hearts of Qin people.

Of course.

Also the crimes of immortals and Buddhas raising the Human Race, extracting spiritual charm, refining blood and flesh.

These are all remembered by all Qin citizens.

As Duo Bao Tathagata tore through the void and appeared in the void above Qin’s capital.

The next moment.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

At the pinnacle of the void.

The intangible Nine Provinces Barrier immediately manifested.

The phantom of Nine Tripod Cauldrons appeared.

Enclosing the whole capital of Qin within it.

In addition.

A real tripod cauldron also appeared in the capital void, namely one of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons, the Yan State Ding.

”Nine Tripod Cauldrons.”

”Human Clan’s Divine Artifact.”

”The fate and fortune of this Qin Court have reached such a level; the Nine Provinces Barrier possesses such might.”

Seeing the Nine Provinces Barrier below, Duo Bao Tathagata couldn’t help but be surprised.

Under the oppressive might of the fate exuded by this tripod cauldron, it even made this avatar feel a threat.

When the Heavenly Court once came to confront Qin, although Duo Bao Tathagata secretly observed and saw the might of the Nine Provinces Barrier, it was not as powerful as what was shown today.

”Do not take action.”

”The force of fate within this barrier can deal with my avatar, and I cannot break this Nine Provinces Barrier.”

”Once action is taken.”

”It means there will be no amicable resolution with Qin Court.”

”Negotiation must still be the priority.”

Duo Bao Tathagata thought silently.

Indeed.

In this world, one principle still prevails.

Strength!

Only with strength can negotiations qualify.

If Qin were still a mere mortal small country, with only a few immortals for protection.

Then today’s greeting would not be one of restraint from Duo Bao Tathagata, but a palm falling, turning the entire Qin Capital to ruin.

Ultimately, it’s survival of the fittest.

And at this moment!

”To offend our Qin.”

”Deserves execution.”

A cold shout.

From above the void.

One powerful aura after another appeared.

First, one hundred thousand Imperial Guard Army appeared, suffused with endless killing intent, targeting Duo Bao Tathagata, the leader among them, Ren Xiao, had already reached the peak of the Martial Arts Supreme Realm.

Not only him.

The many experts within the capital also emerged.

Daqin Buddhist Monk.

Daqin Immortal Practitioner.

Instantly...
