Chapter 808
Expanded to a million-fold and condensed into a grand array, the purification light of the Jingtian Divine Pearl had grown more than a hundredfold in power compared to just tens of thousands of pearls.
Shhh!
The colossal Buddha palm condensed by the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array, though radiating unmatched might, dissolved rapidly upon contact with the purification column, as if plunged into molten lava.
Less than a breath passed before the colossal Buddha palm was entirely dissolved by the purification light.
Strictly speaking, Buddha light is not negative energy.
On the contrary, Buddha light suppresses countless demons and evils—it is an extremely yang, positive energy.
It is only due to the actions of the Western Two Saints that the Goose behaves with excessive tyranny and shamelessness, causing all forces of the Three Realms to despise it.
Yet the Jingtian Divine Pearl contains an extremely pure purification light, capable of even invoking the reinforcement of the Purification Dao.
With Dao-level reinforcement, the purification light can purify far more than just negative energy.
With the power of the Dao, anything can be defined as negative, if needed.
To some extent, once the Purification Dao is cultivated to a certain level, it tends toward idealism.
For the world, both positive and negative energies are indispensable.
The most fundamental principle of a world is yin-yang balance.
Positive and negative energies are precisely the two poles of yin and yang.
Thus, for the world, whether eliminating positive energy or negative energy, as long as it aids in maintaining yin-yang balance, it is equivalent to purifying the world.
From this perspective, the target of the purification light is not fixed.
A cultivator of the Purification Dao, if they sincerely believe something is harmful—even if it is a sacred, radiant creation—can still purify it.
Clearly, in Luo Fu's eyes, the Western Two Saints and the Goose are harmful substances to the Journey to the West World.
Hence, the purification light of the Jingtian Divine Pearl can suppress and purify Buddha light.
After dissolving the colossal Buddha palm, the light column emitted by the mirror array continued descending, striking toward the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array.
Faced with the light column that effortlessly dissolved the colossal Buddha palm, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array showed no sign of panic.
The previous Buddha palm was merely a test.
The Ten Thousand Buddhas Array is the Western Two Saints' greatest trump card.
Had they personally intervened, with the power of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array, the Western Two Saints could even have confidence in suppressing the other Saints.
Due to the terms of the wager, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array is not yet in its complete form.
The complete Ten Thousand Buddhas Array should be led and controlled by the Western Two Saints, with countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas as its nodes, and billions upon billions of believers as its foundation.
Only thus could the full power of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array be unleashed.
The current Ten Thousand Buddhas Array possesses only the billions of believers as its foundation—equivalent to merely an outer shell.
Though the Western Two Saints manipulate the billions of believers from behind the scenes, concentrating their power as much as possible, the power they can still unleash amounts to less than one percent of the true power of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array.
Of course, one percent is sufficient.
The true Ten Thousand Buddhas Array is meant to suppress Saints.
Luo Fu is not a Saint, and he cannot intervene directly.
Against Sun Wukong, who is merely at the peak of Great Luo Jinxian, even one percent of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array is enough to suppress him.
In fact, had it not been for the requirement that the Past, Future, and Present Three Buddha Realms must unite as one to form the complete Ten Thousand Buddhas Array—
causing the current array, composed only of the Present Three Buddha Realms, to have inherent flaws, and had the Jingtian Divine Pearl not specifically counteracted the Three Buddha Realms, the Three Buddha Realms alone would have sufficed to crush Sun Wukong.
Om!
At the center of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array, the Nine-Petaled Jin Lian reappeared.
Boundless Buddha light poured into the Nine-Petaled Jin Lian, which immediately expanded countless times, engulfing the entire Ten Thousand Buddhas Array.
Unlike before, when it enveloped each Buddha Realm individually, this time the Nine-Petaled Jin Lian treated the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array as a single whole.
This still meant the power of the Nine-Petaled Jin Lian was not dispersed.
Moreover, with the immense Buddha light reinforcement, the defensive power of the Nine-Petaled Jin Lian had increased countlessfold compared to before.
Solidified lotus leaves extended outward continuously, and wherever they passed, the spatial integrity was strengthened by dozens of times.
This is precisely what the Western Two Saints guide the billions of believers to do.
The power of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array has surpassed the limit of the Peak Great Luo Jinxian.
In the current Three Realms, a Peak Great Luo Jinxian unleashing full power can trigger massive disasters. Though insufficient to destroy the Three Realms, it still significantly destabilizes them.
Hence, most Peak Great Luo Jinxian choose to fight in the Outer Heavens.
Due to the Journey to the West, the Western Two Saints and Luo Fu clearly cannot relocate the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array or the Mirror Array to the Outer Heavens.
Should the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array and the Mirror Array clash violently, their unleashed power would severely disrupt the surrounding space.
Luo Fu does not care about this, but the Western Two Saints must. After all, the battleground is the Western Paradise Continent—their own territory.
Facing the Mirror Array's assault, the Western Two Saints still had the capacity to reinforce the surrounding space—demonstrating their immense confidence in the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array.
Simply in scale, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array indeed inspires great confidence.
Each Buddha Realm composing the Ten Thousand Buddhas Array is a medium-sized world.
Generally, a medium-sized world's scale can rival that of an ordinary Peak Great Luo Jinxian.
That is, a medium-sized world can stand against a Peak Great Luo Jinxian.
A world's scale being able to oppose a Peak Great Luo Jinxian means the energy contained within a medium-sized world far exceeds that of an ordinary Peak Great Luo Jinxian.
Moreover, Buddhism is no ordinary medium-sized world—each Buddha Realm contains countless believers who pray ceaselessly day and night.
The faith energy generated by their prayers ultimately reinforces the Buddha Realms.
The Western Two Saints began constructing the Three Thousand Buddha Realms countless Wushuyuan Society ago.
After countless Wushuyuan Society of accumulation, the energy stored within each Buddha Realm.
A single Buddha Realm may still not rival an ordinary large world, but dozens combined are no weaker than an ordinary large world.
If medium-sized worlds are still relatively common, then large-sized worlds are exceedingly rare.
