Chapter 1146: Taking Action

At this moment, at the distant edge of the boundless continent, there existed a place filled with infinite evil Buddha power. Countless blood-colored Buddhas soared across the sky, their faces serene, yet the aura they exuded was chilling.

“What place is this?” the Future Immeasurable Buddha, seeing the sky filled with these Buddhas of resentment, felt a sudden shock in his heart.

The black-robed figure chuckled darkly, “That’s right. This is the place where the Buddha once imprisoned those who had fallen into evil Buddhism. However, even you would not know of this place; perhaps you’ve only heard of it.”

The Future Immeasurable Buddha was astonished that he knew of this location. Indeed, he had heard of such a place, but he had never known where it was. Not even the elders of the Good and Evil Buddhist Sect knew, for only the Buddha himself had known.

This place imprisoned all the disciples of the Good and Evil Buddhist Sect who had fallen into evil Buddhism. For hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, countless had been imprisoned here. Some eventually abandoned their evil ways and returned to the righteous path, while others became increasingly corrupt, spiraling into irredeemable depths until they dissolved into countless resentful Buddhas.

The black-robed figure pointed toward a distant, hazy, and heavily oppressed area, “There is the place you must go.”

“Countless King Buddhas like the Three Yin Infinite Buddha, the Sin Free Buddha, and the Crimson Buddha have all been sealed there. Their resentment and essence have transformed into a Buddha Pool, containing everything they once possessed. Perhaps you don’t know, but the Buddha has both good and evil aspects. The evil aspect was sealed there. Now you should understand why I can help you achieve the path of Tianjun, right?”

Upon hearing this, the Future Immeasurable Buddha was stunned, his mind going blank. He recognized the names of those King Buddhas—the powerful figures of the Good and Evil Buddhist Sect who had ultimately fallen into evil Buddhism and been sealed here by the Buddha, in hopes that they would cleanse their hearts of evil. Yet, instead of reforming, they had grown darker and darker until they were finally consumed by supreme Buddha power, eternally sealed here. Their infinite resentment surged into the sky, coalescing into a Buddha Pool brimming with their essence. Within it also lay the Buddha’s own dark thoughts. If he could control it all, then…

It was too unimaginable.

The Future Immeasurable Buddha’s heart began to race. He turned to the black-robed figure and asked, “You’ve told me all this—what exactly do you want?”

The black-robed figure smiled faintly, “When you attain the path of Tianjun, you’ll know. For now, don’t get involved in the affairs of the boundless continent. Just savor the joy of becoming a Tianjun. Perhaps before long, you will succeed.”

The Future Immeasurable Buddha maintained a calm expression, but inside, his heart was boiling. This was his opportunity. If he could control it all, how powerful would he become? How terrifying?

Everything, absolutely everything, was exhilarating.

Achieving the path of Tianjun meant no one could control him anymore. As for this black-robed figure, he would meet his end…

“Go forth. Your destiny awaits you,” the black-robed figure vanished into the void, leaving the rest to him. Whether or not he would step into the Buddha Pool was now his choice. If he refused, he would never attain Tianjun. But if he entered, Tianjun would be within his grasp.

At this moment, Lin Fan’s eyelid twitched. “What’s going on? I feel like there’s danger in the future.”

With his current strength, he could already sense danger, but he didn’t take it seriously. With his current power, what was there left to fear?

“Almost there?” At this moment, Lin Fan and Elder Puxin were flying through the void. They were heading toward the domain of the Death Lord and the Nightmare Lord.

These two Lords, working together, were indeed terrifying. They had managed to suppress the sects of the boundless continent, forcing them into retreat. Meanwhile, the lives of the Moon Shadow Continent remained unscathed.

This was all due to the Death Lord summoning the undead to fight against the disciples of the boundless continent.

Elder Puxin gazed ahead. Before them lay a mist-covered expanse. To the naked eye, it appeared normal, but with the Buddha eye, he saw that the sky and earth there had been linked together, trapped within a dream.

“Disciple, look. The Nightmare Lord has already begun his work. Those disciples have already fallen into the dream. Perhaps only a Sage King-level expert could resist it,” Elder Puxin said.

Lin Fan looked ahead and indeed saw the same sight. “It’s time to act.”

Elder Puxin nodded, clasped his hands, and radiant Buddha light enveloped the sky.

“Buddha Dream Karma.”

Suddenly, a sleeping Buddha appeared in the sky, lying on its side in the void, letting out a gentle snore. The sound resonated like thunder, crashing through the heavens.

Within that snore was contained the power of Buddhism, spreading across the sky.

There, the disciples were trapped in the nightmare. Before their eyes, demons seemed to charge toward them, and they rose to resist, raising their weapons to slash at the demons before them.

A Sage King elder, witnessing this, was deeply alarmed. Faced with this situation, he was utterly helpless, only able to watch helplessly.

At the same time, a powerful nightmare force pierced through the void and surged into his consciousness. He had to fight it with all his might, for this was not a battle of strength, but of the spirit.

For the Lords of the Moon Shadow Continent, their primary cultivation focused on spiritual power. For the Sage Kings of the boundless continent, while consciousness was also important, they placed more emphasis on their physical strength.

Clash!

At that moment, a sudden Buddha sound echoed in their minds, and the nightmare force instantly dissipated, being violently repelled.

The disciples who had fallen into the nightmare suddenly awoke, but when they saw the scene before them, they were stunned.

Because they realized that the demons they had been trying to kill were actually their fellow disciples.

“How could this be…”

Lin Fan looked down at the scene below. He raised his finger, and life energy surged outward like a tide, enveloping all the disciples, healing their wounds. As long as they still had a breath left, they would recover under the power of life.

“Senior Qingming, are you alright?” Lin Fan asked.

Seeing the newcomers, Senior Qingming felt a wave of relief. “I’m fine. Fortunately, you arrived in time. The techniques of these two Lords are very strange. You must also be careful.”

Lin Fan smiled, “Don’t worry. This time Elder Puxin is here. The Buddhist cultivation arts are specifically effective against these two Lords.”

Elder Puxin chanted a Buddhist mantra. The prayer beads around his neck suddenly flew into the void, growing larger and multiplying in number.

With a sudden movement of his hands, the sleeping Buddha in the void transformed into countless beams of Buddha light, merging into the prayer beads. Then the prayer beads shrank, eventually scattering and merging into the bodies of the disciples.

This was the seed of the Buddhist cultivation art, capable of automatically resisting the Nightmare Lord’s power.

Far ahead, the two Lords, upon witnessing this scene, were momentarily stunned.

The Nightmare Lord’s expression turned furious. “I didn’t expect these natives to actually break through my ability.”

The Death Lord smiled faintly, flicked his sleeve, and a wave of death energy spread out. The sky turned snowy and bleak, and countless undead beings emerged…
