Chapter 70

The Heavenly Court could not annihilate Fomen; if they did, it would be a lose-lose situation, and if they were going to do it, it wouldn’t just be Doumu Yuanjun coming.

Perhaps the true master of the Heavenly Court, Haotian, would appear on Lingshan.

"Doumu Yuanjun jokes," the Medicine Buddha said quickly. "If this were the case, I believe the master of the Heavenly Court would personally appear here."

"It seems you are not too stupid," the Holy Mother Jin Ling laughed. "Medicine Buddha, I won’t waste words with you. Let Duobao come out, otherwise don’t blame us."

"The Buddha is in seclusion and is not seeing guests," the Medicine Buddha shook his head. "If you have anything to say, tell me."

"You don’t have this qualification, and it’s not your turn here," the Holy Mother Jin Ling said with a hint of mockery.

These words made the Medicine Buddha’s expression change slightly.

Who was he?

He was one of the Buddhas of Fomen and a powerful Quasi-Saint powerhouse.

This Doumu Yuanjun in front of him actually looked down on him so much.

Even if the other party was a disciple of a Saint in the past, now she was just a poor person on the Investiture of the Gods.

"Doumu Yuanjun, I will let you see if I have this qualification," the Medicine Buddha said indifferently.

"Very well, Medicine Buddha, then let’s see." The Holy Mother Jin Ling held a Dragon-Tiger Ruyi in her palm and sacrificed it directly.

"Well come." The Medicine Buddha took a deep breath and met the Holy Mother Jin Ling’s attack.

"Boom..."

Two terrifying forces erupted from the clash, and the entire Lingshan was constantly trembling.

However, a Buddha light enveloped it, so Lingshan did not suffer too much damage.

"Amitabha, Buddha light shines everywhere."

The Medicine Buddha put his hands together, and golden light surged like the sea.

Above these lights, one could vaguely see many Buddhas sitting in them, their Buddha light constantly permeating.

"Shangqing Holy Law, Shangqing Divine Thunder..."

Doumu Yuanjun also used her own powerful strength.

This was much stronger than the techniques Guanyin and the others used from the Chan Sect.

After all, the Holy Mother Jin Ling was originally a disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu, and her strength was much stronger than Guanyin and the others.

This could be seen from the fact that even Guangchengzi was not as good as the Holy Mother Jin Ling back then.

"Boom..."

A divine thunder that pierced the sky fell from the sky and blasted into the Buddha light.

In the blink of an eye, the Buddha light vanished and disappeared.

This Shangqing Divine Thunder continued to fall toward the Great Leiyin Temple with undiminished momentum.

"Not good."

The Medicine Buddha’s expression changed drastically as he saw this.

Clearly, from the confrontation just now, he, the Medicine Buddha, was not as good as the Holy Mother Jin Ling.

This made the Medicine Buddha somewhat unable to believe it.

After all, after becoming a member of the Investiture of the Gods, strength could not increase.

But even so, the strength of this Jie Sect disciple could still suppress him.

"Buzz buzz..."

When this divine thunder was about to hit the Great Leiyin Temple, a Buddha light spread out from within, blocking the attack of the divine thunder.

The golden light did not vibrate at all.

The other party’s attack made the Holy Mother Wudang’s eyes narrow.

Although her strength was among the best among Quasi-Saints, compared to the current Tathagata, there seemed to be a large gap.

Senior brother Duobao’s strength had advanced by leaps and bounds after becoming the Tathagata of Fomen.

With his already strong strength, he had become even more powerful.

"Duobao, come out; you don’t want to continue being a turtle with your head in your shell, do you?" the Holy Mother Wudang said indifferently.

The Holy Mother Wudang could still recognize who had attacked just now.

Even if the other party’s power system had changed, it was the same.

Back then, the few of them had been senior brothers and sisters in the Jie Sect for a long time.

"Amitabha..."

A voice with a little helplessness came from the Great Leiyin Temple, and a monk wearing a golden-yellow cassock, with a meat bun on his head and a compassionate face, walked out slowly.

Vaguely, one could see the appearance of the past Duobao from the other party’s face.

"Greetings to the Buddha..."

Many Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and other members of Fomen bowed slightly when they saw the Tathagata.

This was the true leader of Fomen today.

Like the past Buddha, the Burning Lamp Buddha, could not compare to the current Tathagata.

Tathagata, whether in Fomen or in the mortal world, his reputation and status could be said to be in full swing.

Especially after the Journey to the West, the Tathagata’s reputation reached its true peak.

Naturally, the current Buddha Tathagata had not yet reached that peak moment.

"Duobao." The Holy Mother Wudang looked at the Buddha Tathagata and said in a deep voice.

"Holy Mother Wudang, there is only Tathagata in Lingshan, no Duobao," the Buddha Tathagata shook his head. "Wudang, Jin Ling, I don’t know what business you have coming to Lingshan."

The Buddha Tathagata had not guessed the arrival of the two either.

Because it was truly too sudden.

"Tathagata, under the Master’s orders, we are preparing to reorganize the Jie Sect," the Holy Mother Jin Ling said slowly.

"Reorganize the Jie Sect?" Tathagata’s pupils shrank.

The Jie Sect—he was the former senior brother of the Jie Sect, Duobao.

After the Investiture of the Gods Great Calamity, the Jie Sect disciples were either on the Investiture of the Gods or dead.

The Jie Sect could almost be said to have been destroyed.

Since the Investiture of the Gods, there had been no news of the Jie Sect at all.

Tongtian Jiaozhu was hit hard in his heart, the Holy Mother Wudang lived in seclusion on Mount Lishan, and the Jie Sect had almost been wiped out.

But now Jin Ling said they were reorganizing the Jie Sect, and it was under the Master’s orders.

This made Tathagata somewhat unable to believe it.

"Hmm..."

Suddenly, Tathagata’s gaze froze; as a top Quasi-Saint, he discovered the difference in the Holy Mother Jin Ling.

Clearly, the Holy Mother Jin Ling no longer had the aura of the Investiture of the Gods.

She was just like his past self.

That was his familiar junior sister.

"Junior sister, you have broken free from the Investiture of the Gods," Tathagata couldn’t help but say.

"Of course, it was all thanks to the senior’s help that I and other Jie Sect disciples were able to break free from the Investiture of the Gods and reshape our bodies," the Holy Mother Jin Ling said with a smile.

Regarding breaking free from the Investiture of the Gods, the Holy Mother Jin Ling did not intend to continue hiding it.

Tongtian Jiaozhu did not intend to either.

That was why the Holy Mother Jin Ling and the Holy Mother Wudang had come to Lingshan openly.

"Senior?" Tathagata gasped; Tathagata knew about the connection between the Investiture of the Gods and the Heavenly Dao.

Even a Saint could not easily intervene.

Because doing so would definitely be punished by the Heavenly Dao.

And now, someone could intervene, so the other party’s strength must be beyond that of a Saint.

Perhaps that was a powerhouse comparable to the Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

What consequences would such a powerhouse have when connected to the Jie Sect? Tathagata couldn’t imagine.

Could the previous heaven and earth calamity be because of that senior?

Tathagata thought of the previous reactions to the heaven and earth calamity, but those calamities disappeared in an instant.

Perhaps only powerful strength could make the Heavenly Dao punishment disappear so quickly.

"What, senior brother Duobao, do you not hope that I have broken free from the Investiture of the Gods?" the Holy Mother Jin Ling said indifferently.

"Of course not." Tathagata shook his head. "Junior sister being able to break free from the Investiture of the Gods is junior sister’s luck, and I would like to congratulate junior sister, but the current world no longer belongs to the Jie Sect."
