Above the Buddha Island.
Xiao Yi's divine thoughts clung to the imnse Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect, towering 99,000 li high, as he looked down at the sowhat ethereal Buddhist Nation, nestled between the substantive and the illusory on his palm, feeling a sense of inexplicable emotion.
He had initially only intended to make the Buddha Island sufficiently grand.
To let the Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect gather enough strength.
But the result was that both the Buddha Island and the Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect were refined to the extre, causing resonance with the Boundless Buddha Sea; nurous devout followers voluntarily flew to his Buddha Island, congregating into this palm-sized Buddhist Nation. From that mont, Xiao Yi beca the true leader of the Buddhist order.
Thinking back to his original purpose for coming to the Western Province was rely to seek revenge against the Celestial Dragon Supre Venerable.
But who would have thought...
He had stumbled and bumbled his way into becoming the leader of Buddhism?
The peerless Xiao Buddha King?
"Greetings, Buddha King!"
Lost in thought, Xiao Yi heard the voice of the Buddha's mother by his ear.
"Eh?"
Xiao Yi was stunned, instinctively looking towards the source of the voice.
He saw the future Buddha's mother's Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect standing before him, hands pressed together in prayer, with a deanor of devoutness and reverence as she gazed at him.
After a mont of surprise.
Xiao Yi understood the key point; indeed, in terms of individual cultivation and combat prowess, the Buddha's mother was far above him. However, he possessed the ans to destroy the Buddha Island, and at the sa ti, he had gathered the Unparalleled Buddha Island and the Supre Dharma Image and even condensed the palm-sized Buddhist Nation to beco the true leader of the Buddhist order.
Unless the Buddha's mother wanted to defect from Buddhism and plunge it into an irreversible catastrophe.
Otherwise...
She would absolutely not dare to be his enemy again.
With that thought.
Xiao Yi's gigantic Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect gave a slight smile, and with but a gently spoken word, he resonated with the Boundless Buddha Sea, the sound echoing over the sea like the beat of an evening drum and the chi of a morning bell: "Dispense with the formalities!"
"Thank you, Buddha King!"
The Buddha's mother responded respectfully, smiling awkwardly, "Congratulations to the Buddha King for condensing the Unparalleled Buddha Island and the Supre Dharma Image. Under the Buddha King's leadership, our Buddhist Nation will surely stand tall at the pinnacle of the Qingtian Realm!"
Xiao Yi gave a noncommittal hmm.
Just as he was about to speak...
Over the Boundless Buddha Sea echoed a robust voice: "Buddha's mother, cease, Xiao Yi has now beco a Holy Buddha of our Buddhist order; you must not lay a hand on him!"
The voice was swift.
It was none other than the Buddha Ancestor, who descended upon the Boundless Buddha Sea with his Buddha thoughts, controlling a thousand li high Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect as he rushed over.
The Buddha's mother looked at him speechlessly, thinking to herself: Are you blind? I've already ford a palm-sized Buddhist Nation, dare I strike against him?
The Buddha Ancestor had only just arrived with his Buddha thoughts and had not yet noticed Xiao Yi.
Now, seeing the imnse Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect and the Buddha Island before him, his face revealed an incredulous shock: "This, this, is this a newly risen Buddha? Such a colossal Buddha Island, such a massive Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect, how on earth did he do it?"
The Buddha Ancestor was flabbergasted.
Among the past three holy figures of Buddhism, he had attained the Sacred Venerate Realm the earliest.
Even so...
He had only managed to expand the Buddha Island to 100,000 square kiloters.
Xiao Yi had just achieved the Buddha Fruit Position and had already condensed a Buddha Island spanning 9 million square kiloters, with a Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect of 99,000 li high.
Even for the Buddha saints who advocate the emptiness of the four great elents, there was a bitter taste in their hearts at this mont.
The Buddha's mother gave him a sidelong glance and said speechlessly, "Do you think I would know how he managed it?"
The Buddha Ancestor let out a grunt, revealing a trace of an embarrassed smile.
If the Buddha Mother knew how to condense such a Supre Dharma Image and the Buddha Island, his Buddha Island would have surpassed his own long ago.
"Buddha Ancestor, this is our Buddhist sect's newly promoted current Buddha Xiao Yi!"
Holding no more thoughts of retaliation, the Buddha Mother took on the role of introducer, "Xiao Buddha King, the person before you is the nominal leader of our Buddhist sect before your arrival, possessing the past Buddha Fruit Position, the Buddha Ancestor." After pausing, the Buddha Mother' s face showed a teasing and strange smile, "Buddha Ancestor, the position of the Buddhist sect leader will have to be handed over to others now!"
"..."
The Buddha Ancestor was at a loss for words.
Xiao Yi's imnse Holy Buddha Dharma Aspect looked down upon the two, and although both also possessed Dharma Aspects hundreds of miles high, they still seed extraordinarily diminutive before the 9,900 miles tall Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi spoke lightly: "Please wait a mont, you two. I have established my Buddha Island and decreed over the Buddhist Nation at hand. It is now ti for to return and assu the current Buddha position. Let's catch up at the summit of Spirit Mountain!"
"That is as it should be, I can reach Spirit Mountain in just half an hour," agreed the Buddha Ancestor with a nod.
Upon hearing the words Spirit Mountain, the Buddha Mother instantly felt a shiver run down his spine.
He was bound by a Buddhist Heart Vow with Xiao Yi.
Once they got to the summit of Spirit Mountain, he was to kneel and apologize to Xiao Yi in public!
He was even tempted to withdraw his Buddhist thoughts and rush directly to the battlefield beyond the realm.
His mind was pondering the feasibility of this plan.
Just then, the Buddha Mother felt a sudden chill at his back. Instinctively turning to look, he saw Xiao Yi watching him with a smile that was not quite a smile. That look was full of amusent, as if seeing right through his thoughts. The Buddha Mother laughed awkwardly and had no choice but to abandon the sches in his mind, bringing his hands together in prayer and saying, "If that is so, I shall await your eminent arrival at the summit of Spirit Mountain!"
"Hmm!"
Xiao Yi nodded his head, withdrawing his divine thoughts.
......
Inside the current Buddha Palace.
It was still that spring of clear water cradling the golden hoop.
The visage of the current Buddha reappeared. Although he had long perished, leaving only a residual thought, he could still perceive everything within the Boundless Buddha Sea. When he saw the Buddha Island of 900 million square kiloters and the Supre Dharma Image more than 9,000 miles tall, he completely gave up on persuading Xiao Yi to wear the golden hoop.
At the sa ti, he truly believed that Xiao Yi had indeed reached his current realm in less than ten years.
The residual image looked at Xiao Yi, gradually dissipating and about to vanish from this world.
On his face, Xiao Yi saw a hint of words left unsaid and thus asked, "Senior, do you have any last words to pass on?"
The current Buddha paused and said, "As monks, we acknowledge the emptiness of the four worldly elents. This poor monk has been perished for many years and should not cling to such thoughts. However, a vengeance as deep as life and death cannot be shared under heaven... Xiao Yi, if one day you have sufficient strength and encounter a man nad Li Chengfeng on the battlefield beyond the realm, could you avenge this fatal grudge for ?"
"Li Chengfeng?"
Xiao Yi was stunned, anyone who could kill the current Buddha must also be a strong being of the Sacred Venerate Realm.
And furthermore...
One of the strongest existences within the Sacred Venerate Realm.
Seeing the plea and hatred in the eyes of the current Buddha's residual image, even though he had perished for over a thousand years, still rembering this life-and-death enmity, it was not hard to imagine what had happened between them. Xiao Yi nodded solemnly, "If I have the ability, I will avenge you!"
"Thank you!"
The residual image of the current Buddha seed relieved, his figure beginning to fade away, he casually pushed the golden hoop towards Xiao Yi, "This poor monk has nothing of value to offer. Take this golden hoop as a gift; should you et soone destined, feel free to bestow the golden hoop upon him..."
With a flick...
The last lingering attachnt of a sacred Buddha vanished from the world.
Xiao Yi looked at the golden hoop in his hand, realizing it represented the strength of a ready-made Sacred Venerate, "It seems I should carefully find soone worthy to entrust this golden hoop to!"
He casually stored away the golden hoop.
Turning around, Xiao Yi walked out of the palace. After all, the Buddha Mother was still waiting outside...
