Amitabha Buddha certainly rembered that at the ti, he simply did not want the Buddha Spirit Path Trace to fall into the hands of Tathagata Buddha. It just so happened that Sun Wukong had accidentally activated a small spatial passage between the Sukhavati Realm and the outside world, so Amitabha Buddha decided to give it a try, adopting a desperate asure, and passed the Buddha Spirit Path Trace to Sun Wukong.
Honestly speaking, Amitabha Buddha never really expected Sun Wukong to one day actually take revenge on his behalf, nor did he imagine Sun Wukong could rescue him. After all, this was the Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain's Sukhavati Realm, the very foundation of the Buddhist Sect, a small world where it would be extrely difficult to deceive Tathagata Buddha and sneak in to rescue soone.
Unless Sun Wukong also reached the cultivation strength similar to that of Tathagata Buddha!
But at that ti, Sun Wukong was only at the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal, with a gap as vast as a chasm compared to Tathagata Buddha. Amitabha Buddha could never have imagined that in less than a thousand years, Sun Wukong would actually achieve such a level!
In fact, Amitabha Buddha had heard sporadic rumors about Sun Wukong from Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. He knew that Sun Wukong had beco the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, with a reputation that echoed throughout the Three Realms, but Amitabha Buddha had no real concept of how strong Sun Wukong was, until today, which was quite an eye-opener!
"Wukong, my young friend, I appreciate your good intentions. You should leave quickly. Rember, if one day you can take revenge for , then my passing on the Buddha Spirit Path Trace to you would not have been in vain!"
After a brief mont of joy, Amitabha Buddha's lips once again curled into a bitter smile. He was bound by Stellar Aura Chains ford of stellar spiritual energy and couldn't break free. What could Sun Wukong possibly do to rescue him?
Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva was dead, and soon Tathagata Buddha would receive the news. By then, even Sun Wukong might fall within this Sukhavati Realm.
"What's the matter? From the look on your face, it seems you don't believe I can rescue you?"
Seeing Amitabha Buddha's expression and hearing his words, Sun Wukong knew that Amitabha Buddha had little confidence or hope in him. Perhaps in his view, these Stellar Aura Chains were indestructible?
"My young friend Wukong, it's not that I don't believe in you, it's just that these chains ford from the stellar spiritual energy cannot be broken unless one reaches the level of a Heavenly Dao Saint... What?"
Amitabha Buddha shook his head and sighed, not finishing his sentence, when suddenly two beams of golden light shot out from Sun Wukong's eyes, striking one of the Stellar Chains. The Stellar Aura Chains that had held him prisoner for so many years dissolved back into stellar spiritual energy under the golden light and sank into the earth's veins!
"How is this possible?"
Amitabha Buddha's face wore an expression as if he had seen a ghost. These Stellar Aura Chains ford of stellar spiritual energy had been effortlessly broken by Sun Wukong?
"All things are possible!"
Sun Wukong chuckled, the golden light reappeared in his eyes and aid at another Stellar Aura Chain. This was more than just the power of his Void-Breaking Starry Eyes; it was mixed with Chaos Primordial Force. Wasn't it easy for him to break the Stellar Aura Chains?
Stellar spiritual energy, he had absorbed who knows how much within the World Tree's core!
One after another, the Stellar Aura Chains were broken. In the disbelieving gaze of Amitabha Buddha, he felt the power that had been suppressing him slowly being released, and a wild joy surged in his heart.
He hadn't expected that Sun Wukong could truly break the Stellar Aura Chains and rescue him from captivity!
After being trapped for so many years, he would finally be free!
In the Great Thunder Sound Temple, within the Treasure Hall, Tathagata Buddha suddenly opened his eyes, waved his hand, and a Soul Lamp appeared. This was the Lifebound Soul Lamp of Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva. All the Lifebound Soul Lamps of the notable Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats of Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain were in the hands of Tathagata Buddha, so he could constantly monitor their life and death status.
Now, Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva's lifebound soul lamp has actually been extinguished; doesn't that an the Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva has already...
"Not good! Sukhavati Realm!"
Tathagata Buddha's complexion changed instantly, and with a flash, he disappeared from the treasure hall. The next mont, he appeared in the Buddha hall that led to the Sukhavati Realm, imdiately noticing the golden semi-transparent barrier that enveloped the entire statue of Amitabha Buddha, along with an illusory golden rod standing erect within it. It was the afterimage clone of the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod left behind when Sun Wukong recalled it, used to continue maintaining the golden barrier.
"Sun Wukong!"
Tathagata Buddha's expression beca instantly stern; this was the power of the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod, and without doubt, the one who barged into the Sukhavati Realm and did away with Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva was definitely Sun Wukong!
This demon monkey had actually sneaked into Spiritual Mountain so quietly and even entered the Sukhavati Realm!
This was simply outrageous!
With a wave of his hand, a sweep of Buddha's light scattered the golden barrier, as the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod had already been recalled by Sun Wukong. Only this afterimage clone remained, and with its power, it was impossible to contend with Tathagata Buddha.
After breaking the golden barrier, Tathagata Buddha waved his hand again, and the spatial gateway, which had already been reduced to a spatial node, reappeared. A golden light flew from the Buddha's palm and out of the great hall, with Tathagata Buddha himself diving into the spatial gateway.
In a side hall of the Great Thunder Sound Temple, Ran Deng Buddha was ditating with his eyes closed when suddenly a golden light flew in and settled by his ear, transforming into a ssage from Tathagata Buddha.
"Sun Wukong? That demon monkey dares to co to Spiritual Mountain and enter the Sukhavati Realm?"
Ran Deng Buddha suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of astonishnt crossing his gaze. Tathagata Buddha's ssage was almost unbelievable to him; Sun Wukong actually had the audacity to co to Spiritual Mountain all by himself!
"Quite the Great Sage Equalling Heaven, truly audacious! But this Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain is not a place where you can co and go as you please!"
A sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth. Ran Deng Buddha's form flashed, transforming into a streak of Buddha's light and rushing towards the entrance hall to the Sukhavati Realm, following Tathagata Buddha into the spatial gateway just one step behind.
What nobody noticed was that a streak of red light flew out from the glazed lamp in the side hall where Ran Deng Buddha had been cultivating in quiet, also following Ran Deng Buddha into the spatial gateway.
Sukhavati Realm, in midair above the gorge.
"Not good, the barrier my old self left behind has been broken! It's Tathagata!"
The mont the barrier situated outside the entrance to the spatial gateway was breached, Sun Wukong imdiately sensed it, his expression changing dramatically. It must be Tathagata Buddha; no one else could break the barrier so swiftly!
This bald donkey Tathagata has actually realized sothing was amiss so quickly!
"Young friend Wukong, don't mind , hurry and leave!"
Amitabha Buddha's complexion changed as well, and through gritted teeth, he spoke to Sun Wukong.
