Chapter 496: Conceptual Dao! The Massive Volume of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array!

Compared to before, this time the Buddha palm condensed by the Ten Thousand Buddha Array looked even thicker, as if the entire palm were cast from gold.

The giant Buddha palm and the beam of light collided in mid-air.

The two Western Sages clearly underestimated the mirror array condensed by the Heaven-Purifying Divine Pearls.

Expanded to the million-level and condensed into an array, the power of the purifying light of the Heaven-Purifying Divine Pearls was more than a hundred times greater than when there were only tens of thousands.

*Swish!*

Although the giant Buddha palm condensed by the Ten Thousand Buddha Array looked peerless in power, once illuminated by the purifying beam, the entire palm began to dissolve rapidly, as if it had fallen into magma.

In less than a single breath, the giant Buddha palm was completely dissolved by the purifying light.

Strictly speaking, Buddha-light is not negative energy.

On the contrary, Buddha-light can restrain many demons and is an extremely masculine and positive energy.

It was only because of the two Western Sages, whose actions were too domineering and shameless, that they were detested by all forces in the Three Realms.

However, the Heaven-Purifying Divine Pearls contained extremely pure purifying light, which could even invoke the blessing of the Dao of Purification.

Being able to invoke the blessing of the Dao, the things that the purifying light could purify were not limited to negative energy.

With the blessing of the power of the Dao, as long as needed, anything could be defined as negative.

To a certain extent, after the Dao of Purification is cultivated to a certain level, it also tends toward idealism.

Because for the world, whether it is positive energy or negative energy, both are indispensable.

The most basic thing for a world is the balance of yin and yang.

Positive energy and negative energy are precisely the two poles of yin and yang.

Therefore, for the world, whether it is eliminating positive energy or eliminating negative energy, as long as it is conducive to maintaining the balance of yin and yang, it is equivalent to purifying the world.

From this perspective, the target of the purifying light is not fixed.

Practitioners of the Dao of Purification, as long as they believe from the bottom of their hearts that something is harmful, even if that thing is a holy and bright creation, they can still purify it.

Clearly, in Luo Fu's eyes, the two Western Sages and their actions were harmful substances to the Journey to the West world.

Therefore, the purifying light of the Heaven-Purifying Divine Pearls could restrain and purify the Buddha-light.

After dissolving the giant Buddha palm, the beam of light emitted by the mirror array continued to fall, bombarding toward the Ten Thousand Buddha Array.

Facing the beam of light that easily dissolved the giant Buddha palm, the Ten Thousand Buddha Array did not show any panic.

The previous Buddha palm was just a test.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Array was the two Western Sages' greatest trump card.

If they acted personally, with the power of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array, the two Western Sages even had the confidence to suppress the other few Saints.

Because of the restrictions of the bet, the Ten Thousand Buddha Array was not in its complete form.

A complete Ten Thousand Buddha Array should be controlled by the two Western Sages, with many Buddhist Buddhas and Bodhisattvas as the hubs of the array, and hundreds of millions of believers as the foundation.

Only in this way could the full power of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array be exerted.

The current Ten Thousand Buddha Array only had the hundreds of millions of believers as the foundation, equivalent to having only a shell.

Although the two Western Sages were manipulating the hundreds of millions of believers from behind the scenes, gathering their power as much as possible, the power that could be exerted was still less than one percent of the true power of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array.

Of course, one percent was enough.

The true Ten Thousand Buddha Array was used to suppress Saints.

Luo Fu was not a Saint, and he could not act personally.

Facing Sun Wukong, who was only at the peak of the Da Luo Golden Immortal level, one percent of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array was enough to suppress him.

In fact, if it were not for the fact that the trinity of the past, future, and current Three Thousand Buddha Realms was needed to form a complete Ten Thousand Buddha Array—

Making the Ten Thousand Buddha Array have certain flaws when there were only the current Three Thousand Buddha Realms, and Luo Fu's Heaven-Purifying Divine Pearls happened to be able to restrain the Three Thousand Buddha Realms, the Three Thousand Buddha Realms alone would have been enough to crush Sun Wukong.

*Hum!*

At the center of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array, the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus appeared again.

Boundless Buddha-light was injected into the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus, and it immediately expanded countless times, enveloping the entire Ten Thousand Buddha Array within it.

Unlike before, when it covered each Buddha realm, this time the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus treated the Ten Thousand Buddha Array as a whole.

This meant that the power of the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus was not dispersed.

Not only that, under the blessing of massive Buddha-light, the defensive power of the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus was also increased countless times compared to before.

The lotus leaves, as if materialized, stretched out toward the surroundings; wherever they passed, even the strength of space was strengthened dozens of times by the Nine-Rank Golden Lotus.

This was also something the two Western Sages could do by guiding the hundreds of millions of believers.

The power of the Ten Thousand Buddha Array had already exceeded the limit of a peak Quasi-Saint.

In the current Three Realms, if peak Quasi-Saint powerhouses acted wantonly, it would be enough to cause great disasters. Although it was not enough to destroy the Three Realms, it still had a significant impact on the stability of the Three Realms.

Therefore, when most Quasi-Saint powerhouses fought, they would choose to do so beyond the heavens.

Because of the Journey to the West, the two Western Sages and Luo Fu clearly could not move the Ten Thousand Buddha Array and the mirror array beyond the heavens.

With the power erupted by the Ten Thousand Buddha Array and the mirror array, once the collision was relatively intense, it would inevitably cause a great impact on the surrounding space.

Luo Fu did not need to care about this, but the two Western Sages had to. After all, the place where the Ten Thousand Buddha Array and the mirror array were fighting was the Western Continent of Cattle-God, which was the two Western Sages' territory.

Facing the bombardment of the mirror array, the two Western Sages still had the energy to strengthen the surrounding space; this shows how much confidence the two Western Sages had in the Ten Thousand Buddha Array.

From the perspective of volume alone, the Ten Thousand Buddha Array could indeed give people great confidence.

Each Buddha realm that composed the Ten Thousand Buddha Array was a medium-sized world.

Generally speaking, a medium-sized world is comparable to an ordinary Quasi-Saint powerhouse in terms of volume.

This means that a medium-sized world can contend with a Quasi-Saint powerhouse.

With the volume of a world, being able to contend with a Quasi-Saint powerhouse means that the energy possessed by a medium-sized world is far more than that of an ordinary Quasi-Saint powerhouse.

Moreover, Buddhism was not an ordinary medium-sized world; in every Buddha realm, there were countless believers, and these believers prayed day and night.

The power of faith generated by the prayers was ultimately blessed onto the Buddha realms.

The two Western Sages had begun to build the Three Thousand Buddha Realms countless eons ago.

After the accumulation of countless eons, the energy stored in each Buddha realm—

A single Buddha realm might not be comparable to an ordinary large world. But dozens of Buddha realms added together might not be worse than an ordinary large world.

If medium-sized worlds were relatively common, then large worlds were extremely uncommon.
