Chapter 847 (1/2)
12 bolts of Heavenly Thunder struck.
The lightning flashed and thunder rumbled atop Mountain Tenya, shaking the hills and quaking the earth.
All the Buddhas stood under the s.h.i.+eld of Vajra and looked toward Phoenix in the distance.
Amidst the fiery flames, Phoenix covered her head with her arms.
Her fifth sense started to vanish.
With her blood dripping, Phoenix could no longer stand and fell on the long steps.
Below the Ninth Heaven.
A host of demons were dancing in riotous revelry.
Almost everyone in the Six Paths could not help but get shocked by the roaring thunder.
Evil spirits started to emerge from the Sea of Blood.
“What’s going on? Is there something wrong with Buddhism?”
“It looks like an ancient holy Buddha had abandoned the Buddha’s gate and is enduring the Heavenly Tribulations?”
“Abandoned the Buddha’s gate? Do they have a death wish? Who could be so stupid?”
As the demons were speaking, they suddenly glanced up at the sky.
Glorious colors were glowing brightly in the midst of the raging flames. A beautiful giant tail flashed across the sky.
“Is that! Is that the Ancient Phoenix?!”
Boom!
The thirty-first bolt of fiery Heavenly Thunder struck!
Mountain Tenya swayed madly with its stones shattering and the sky trembled!
A corner of the s.h.i.+eld of Vajra broke, causing the Buddhas under the s.h.i.+eld to frown.
Little Shamis who were scattered around were washed away into the mountain’s glacier.
Phoenix was on the verge of death. Her stunning true form laid on the ground with blood running down her soft feathers, reddening the entire path of Buddha.
“Let me ask you again, do you really want to betray the Buddha’s gate?”
Phoenix looked up at the sky and snickered.
At that moment, all her unruliness and contempt appeared on the surface.
Everyone knew that if the Phoenix still had the Dharma bone, she might still be able to survive the 33 strikes of fiery Heavenly Thunder.
However, she stubbornly chose the most resolute method to abandon Buddhism.
It was such an unmatched stance as though she was saying, In this world, no one can order me around!
Not even a Buddha.
Get out of my sight!
Bang!
The thirty-second Heavenly Thunder struck directly onto Phoenix’s skull.
All the Buddhas knew that when the last Heavenly Thunder struck, Phoenix would lose all her six senses and there would never be another reincarnation of the Phoenix within the Six Paths ever again!
“Amitabha.” Honored Sir retracted his gaze and put his palms together quietly.
At this moment, the branches of the Bodhi tree that had been erected outside the Buddha’s gate for thousands of years shook all of a sudden!
Rumble!
Everyone looked up and saw the magnificent statue of Xumi Mountain emerging atop the Trayastrimsa heaven, with countless clouds gathering around it.
That was the brilliant glow of the Buddhas returning.
Someone had become a Buddha!
Someone had become a Buddha without redemption?
That was the first thought that flashed through everyone’s minds.
Immediately after that, that Light of Buddha descended from the sky, concealing Phoenix firmly like a golden s.h.i.+eld!
“Honored Sir, how can this be? Who dares to disobey the Buddha? Who is it?”
Who was the one who became a Buddha?
All the Buddhas turned to look at Honored Sir.
Honored Sir who was seated on the Golden Lotus, opened his eyes again and stared down at the dying Phoenix among the bronze ruins.
Boom!
