Chapter 534: Defying the Ancestor Hongjun

After opening a small world, Luo Fu immediately began opening another world without pause.

A mere small world? Luo Fu could open one with a single breath, so there was no pressure at all.

To block the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, Luo Fu opened nine small worlds in one breath.

Without the slightest hesitation, Luo Fu directed the nine small worlds to once again block the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, and chose without hesitation to detonate them.

The nine small worlds detonated together; the surging destructive energy shook the entire Heavenly Beyond.

The terrifying energy tore apart the space between the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and Buddha, leaving countless massive spatial rifts across the Heavenly Beyond.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Streams of radiant light shot forth from the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, extinguishing the surging destructive energy and sealing the torn spatial rifts.

Even amid the destructive energy of nine exploding worlds, the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree moved as if walking on level ground.

Yet even a Saint's magic treasure requires time to extinguish the destructive energy of nine exploding worlds and seal the torn spatial rifts.

In the brief window while the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree was neutralizing the destructive energy, the Five-Finger Mountain had already carried Buddha through the barrier between the Heavenly Beyond and the Three Realms, entering the Three Realms.

Ancestor Hongjun's decree forbade Sages from entering the Three Realms or intervening within them without explicit summons.

If in the Heavenly Beyond a Sage manipulates a magic treasure from afar, it barely counts as violating Ancestor Hongjun's decree.

But within the Three Realms, if a Sage intervenes, they will inevitably violate Ancestor Hongjun's decree.

Both Saint Zhunti and Saint Jieyin still dared not defy Ancestor Hongjun's decree.

Boom!

A thunderous roar echoed throughout the Three Realms.

After piercing the barrier of the Heavenly Beyond, the Five-Finger Mountain plummeted into the Realm of Earth Immortals at tremendous speed.

At the moment of impact, an invisible force flowed beneath the Five-Finger Mountain, relocating all life beneath it.

Moreover, given the speed and weight of the Five-Finger Mountain's fall, under normal circumstances it should have struck the earth like a meteor, carving out a colossal crater.

Yet when the Five-Finger Mountain touched the ground, it emitted only a single thunderous boom and caused not the slightest damage.

This revealed that Luo Fu's control over power had reached the realm of handling weight as if it were light.

After landing, the Five-Finger Mountain immediately took root, fusing seamlessly with the entire earth.

Countless earth-yellow currents flowed around the Five-Finger Mountain.

In but a moment, the entire mountain perfectly blended with its surroundings.

As if the Five-Finger Mountain had always been there.

Buddha, trapped beneath the Five-Finger Mountain, refused to accept his imprisonment.

"Sun Buddha Golden Body! Sixteen-Foot Golden Body! Rise!"

He gathered all his strength, re-summoned the Sun Buddha Golden Body, and infused it into his own Sixteen-Foot Golden Body, exerting every ounce of power to break free from the Five-Finger Mountain.

For a Quasi-Saint, moving mountains and unloading ranges, snatching stars and seizing moons were trivial matters; a mere mountain could be erased with a breath.

Thus, Buddha did not believe Luo Fu could imprison him merely by turning his fingers into a mountain.

He dared to imprison Sun Wukong with his fingers because his realm far surpassed Sun Wukong's.

With Quasi-Saint Peak realm, bullying a Great Immortal Jin Xian was no challenge—not even a palm's pressure was needed; even his aura alone could crush him.

But Luo Fu and he were both at Quasi-Saint Realm; to imprison a Quasi-Saint, only a Saint could do it.

Unfortunately, Buddha did not know.

Luo Fu's current realm was beyond even a Saint's reach.

Had Luo Fu not held such lofty aspirations, seeking to leap directly to the ultimate path,

Achieving Hun Yuan would have been effortless.

Give Luo Fu more time, and becoming a Tian Dao-level force akin to a Chaos Divine Demon would not be difficult.
