Chapter 25 The Holy Man

  Guangming Zizai Buddha finished speaking, smiling and looking at Sun Wukong with a nonchalant expression. However, the fact is indeed so, two people from completely different realms, and their worlds are also completely different. In comparison, he indeed has the qualifications to not put Sun Wukong in his eyes. The strength between upper-level saints and middle-level saints is like a vast chasm, except for a very small number of exceptionally talented individuals who can ignore this chasm and fight across levels, most others cannot ignore it. And Sun Wukong, obviously does not belong to that small group of people.

  Although Sun Wukong was notorious in this realm, in the eyes of Guangming Zi Zai Buddha, he was like a slightly stronger little kid among a group of kids who claimed to be king. Although he was considered fierce among those children, in the eyes of Guangming Zi Zai Buddha, it was simply child's play.

  Just as the Bright Buddha was sizing up Sun Wukong with a playful and teasing gaze, Sun Wukong also looked at the Bright Buddha with a guarded expression.

  When Sun Wukong first saw the Buddha of Light, he knew he had met a great enemy. The aura emitted unintentionally by the Buddha of Light was already much stronger than that of Tathagata, and Sun Wukong believed that even if Tathagata used all his strength to strike, it would not be comparable to the Buddha of Light's casual blow.

  This is the difference between a superior saint and an inferior one. Although the gap between oneself and others may not be that large, it's still quite significant. However, will I back down? Even if I don't want to fight my master behind me and my second senior brother, I will definitely engage in battle with them.

  I have long since had a deep-seated vendetta with the Buddhist sect, and this feud will be avenged sooner or later. It's just that it has come slightly earlier now. I have only just merged one piece of the Golden Divine Stone, if I were to successfully merge all five pieces...

  "What is the Buddha of Light Liberation? If you think that a few words can scare me, Sun Wukong, then you are too naive. It's useless to say more, this Buddhist door, I, Sun Wukong, will definitely destroy it."

  "Hmph, arrogance! Let this inferior realm's monkey demon open its eyes and see the true gap. However, even if you understand now, you won't have time to regret it. Because today, you will surely die."

  As soon as the words fell, Guangming Buddha's hands were clasped together, and a mighty Buddhist power suddenly surged out. Then, his hands suddenly parted, and between them appeared a twelve-story crystal palace. The palace was crystal clear, with intricate carvings and vivid colors. The base of the tower was on the right, and the tip was on the left. Guangming Buddha then swung his right hand back, and the small crystal pagoda stuck to the palm of his right hand.

  "Golden Body Buddha Tower Strike". With a loud roar from Guangming Buddha, his right hand swung forward with great force, and the small tower shot out at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. The target was Sun Wukong.

  Facing the sure-kill blow of Guangming Buddha, Sun Wukong did not dare to have a slight underestimation. The golden hoop on his head suddenly burst open, and a tyrannical aura rose steadily. He grasped the golden hoop rod with his backhand, and an extremely strong power poured into the golden hoop rod, which instantly surged with golden light, its radiance seeming to pulse like a heartbeat. At this moment, Guangming Buddha's delicate pagoda had already arrived before his eyes, and Sun Wukong's right arm muscles bulged, resembling small mountains.

  The next moment, the Linglong pagoda and the Golden Hoop Rod collided violently. A deafening roar shook the heavens, while the turbulent fluctuations of the law spread throughout the world. Any being with a bit of magical power, whether they were gods or demons, felt this fluctuation in the law. One by one, their faces changed dramatically - when did such a terrifying strong person appear in this world?

  As the sound subsided, he looked at the two of them again. The Buddha of Light had a smile on his face as he held up a small tower with his right hand, as if the previous blow was not his doing at all. And looking at Sun Wukong, his right hand holding the golden hoop rod was shaking uncontrollably, as if it would fly out of his hand if he relaxed his grip slightly.

  Obviously, Sun Wukong has been injured, although not seriously, and the outcome of the fight is already clear.

  "Haha, you mischievous monkey, now you know what a difference it makes? Haha"

  Ignoring the wildly laughing Guangming Buddha, Sun Wukong took a deep breath and slowly calmed down the turbulent internal energy in his chest. He turned his head to look at his right hand, where the tiger's mouth was still split open, with fresh blood flowing non-stop.

  Sun Wukong slowly raised his head, with a fierce killing intent bursting forth in his eyes, and his face twisted into a grotesque grimace.

  "Guangming Buddha, don't be too arrogant. Let's try you out today, haha!" Under the maniacal laughter, Sun Wukong's muscles bulged violently. Originally slender, Sun Wukong's height suddenly increased by three times or more. His muscles were tightly coiled like a giant boulder, and his golden armor was torn to shreds. The hair on his body began to grow longer, covering his entire body. However, if you looked closely, you could see the flow of spiritual energy on these hairs, which was extremely resilient, even comparable to the top-level defensive treasures in heaven.

  "Qitian Dasheng - Yao Wang Ti!" A deafening roar like thunder. It turned out that after absorbing Nezha's golden divine stone, Sun Wukong's body underwent some kind of mutation. He could actually transform into a demon king body, and once he transformed into this state, Sun Wukong's physical attack power, defense power, and even speed were all increased by more than tenfold. Moreover, this seemed to be not the final transformation.

  He looked up and glanced at the Guangming website, and in the next moment, Sun Wukong's body had disappeared from its original place. Just as everyone's gaze hadn't had time to shift, they heard the Buddha emit a terrified voice.

  The crowd turned their heads to look at the Tathagata, and were suddenly frightened out of their wits. It turned out that Sun Wukong's huge body had already appeared in front of the Tathagata, and what the crowd saw when they turned their heads was Sun Wukong holding the Tathagata with one hand and clenching his fist with the other.

  "You dare, demon monkey? Let go quickly!" The Buddha of Light reacted a moment faster than the others, but because he was slightly farther away, it was already impossible to come and rescue. In desperation, he could only shoot out his right hand's Linglong Pagoda again. Apparently, he wanted to use the strategy of surrounding Wei to rescue Zhao, to save his life.

  But what everyone didn't expect was that Sun Wukong actually didn't care about the Linglong Pagoda flying behind him, and only looked at the Tathagata. The right fist he grasped suddenly slammed down, and in an instant, blood splattered everywhere. When they looked again, the Tathagata had already become a headless corpse. At this time, the Linglong Pagoda had already appeared on Sun Wukong's back, and it was about to collide with him. The Buddha of Light even let out a slight sigh of relief at this moment, as long as he could kill the demon monkey, it didn't matter if the Tathagata died. At most, he would be scolded when he returned, but there was no great harm.

  However, what happened next left Guangming Buddha stunned. Because he saw with his own eyes that just as Linglong pagoda was about to hit Sun Wukong's back, Sun Wukong suddenly turned around and grabbed the pagoda with his empty left hand. If it were only this, Guangming Buddha could still barely accept it, but what made him almost go crazy was that after grabbing the pagoda, Sun Wukong looked up at him with a sly smile, then his left arm muscles bulged. With a loud "boom", the Linglong pagoda shattered into pieces, crushed by Sun Wukong's bare hands.

  The bright Buddha's life was intertwined with the delicate little pagoda for countless years, but it shattered just like that. It was crushed by Sun Wukong as if he were crushing trash.

  Guangming Buddha raised his hand and pointed at Sun Wukong, a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out, instantly, his face turned pale like gold paper. Obviously, he had suffered extremely severe internal injuries. This delicate little pagoda was his life-bound treasure, closely related to himself. And with the pagoda shattered, how could he not be injured under the pull of his heart and spirit?

  Just as Guangming Buddha had not yet recovered from the shock, he only heard the Buddhas shouting loudly "Don't", he suddenly turned his head and saw the thing that made him most fearful in this life. Sun Wukong's huge body full of wildness and explosive power appeared behind him.

  Guangming Buddha suddenly raised his head, and what he saw was a pair of huge fists smashing down on him. At this moment, Guangming Buddha felt a sense of relief instead, watching the fist rapidly enlarging in his pupils. Guangming Buddha shouted: "Sun Wukong, even if you kill me, it's useless! I'm just the lowest-ranking Buddhist soldier. Wait for it, someone stronger will come to kill you. Wait for it... Haha..."

  As soon as the words were spoken, Sun Wukong's fist had already smashed down. The once arrogant and invincible Guangming Zi Zai Buddha was transformed into a puddle of flesh. Even his soul was shattered.
