Chapter 458: Zhou Tong Speaking to the Buddha: You Have a Hole in Your Ass!
“Destroy the heavens and annihilate the earth, rain of weapons!”
Zhou Tong unleashed a strike, and weapons as brilliant as the stars scattered in all directions, shattering the overwhelming Buddha light!
At that moment, the imprint of Pure Joy Buddha descended, blocking the sun and covering an entire expanse of time and space.
This palm strike was utterly terrifying, directly encompassing the floating island of the Li Family, intent on exterminating it.
“If you evade, those behind you will surely suffer.”
The majestic sound of the Buddha echoed down, making Zhou Tong unable to suppress a cold laugh.
“Full of compassion but with a heart full of schemes—this is truly your true face, isn’t it?”
“Eradicate evil thoroughly; any means are justified!”
The Buddha’s voice was solemn, as if everything was inherently justifiable.
However, in the next moment, Zhou Tong vanished before him, easily evading the attack.
“Hmph, do you think this Buddha truly dares not strike? Then you shall pay the price for your actions!”
Pure Joy Buddha looked down at the Li Family without any intention of holding back.
But he seemed to forget one point: the Li Family was not without the power to resist; above them were hundreds of Sacred Forbidden Weapons, and just when they were concerned about not being able to aim at a target, the enemy conveniently presented themselves so large—it was like waiting to be cannon fodder.
“Fire!”
The Empress ordered with a cold smile.
“Bang, bang, bang, bang…”
Ten Sacred Forbidden Weapons, emitting white smoke, launched mercilessly, striking directly at the Buddha’s palm!
In an instant, waves of destruction swept across the heavens; even the Eighth Layer of the Sage could not completely resist this force and was struck through the defenses. His palm exploded, blood-soaked, and he was sent flying!
“Ah!!! How dare you injure me!”
The enemy screamed, the compassionate face turned hideous in an instant, the solemnity gone, replaced by overwhelming killing intent.
“Hahaha, see clearly now, this is your true self. Weren’t you acting all maternal just a moment ago?”
The Empress was unbothered by appearances and sharply teased, causing the opponent to lose their composure further.
“Enchantress, you must be punished!”
“Getting desperate, are we? Is this what it takes to break your defense? What a low standard! Then I’ll send you a few more Sacred Forbidden Weapons!”
As her voice fell, several weapon-like projectiles shot out like divine arrows, aiming for the opponent’s vital points.
“Hmph, a mere trick dares to show off in front of me!”
Pure Joy Buddha scoffed, his body shone with light, and his severed palm swiftly grew back.
At the same time, countless golden lights erupted around him, forming a starry halo, creating an indestructible barrier!
“Indestructible Diamond Body!!”
Before the words could finish, the Sacred Forbidden Weapons slammed into him; this time, they did not have the previous unstoppable momentum, but were instead suppressed by the Buddha light and easily resolved.
It must be said that while Sacred Forbidden Weapons were effective for exterminating sects, against powerful beings like the Eighth Layer Sage, they were somewhat inadequate!
“This Buddha is invincible; you may do as you wish!”
The opponent spoke nonchalantly, even the look in his eyes changed, no longer amiable, looking down on all beings as if they were ants.
But he saw nothing wrong; under the Indestructible Diamond Body, no one could break through his defenses.
However, the moment a voice suddenly came from above, he was shaken to his core.
“Break!”
Zhou Tong exhaled, delivering a punch from above, imbued with the might of Recasting Authority, striking the opponent.
In an instant, the surrounding golden light quickly dimmed, as if forcibly stripped away, without any obstacle.
“How is this possible?”
Pure Joy Buddha was immediately alarmed; just as he wished to move, he found his body heavy as if it weighed tens of thousands of times, even the resistance of the air magnified to a terrifying degree, making it difficult for him to move!
“Art of Arms, lengthen!”
Zhou Tong chanted the incantation, and the Three-pronged Double-edged Saber extended to a hundred zhang, directly slashing towards the Buddha’s neck!
The divine weapon was sharp, piercing through the void, seemingly unstoppable!
However, facing such an assault, Pure Joy Buddha remained unafraid.
“This Buddha refines his physical body; there are no flaws, and no blade or axe shall harm me!”
“Is that so?”
Zhou Tong couldn’t help but chuckle; behind him, the halo spun, and a third dot of light shot forth, landing directly on the opponent’s neck.
In an instant, Pure Joy Buddha felt his neck become extremely stiff; upon inspection, it was crumbling apart!
He widened his eyes, confused; his neck had turned to charcoal!
“Stop!!”
He shouted, but Zhou Tong would not comply with his wishes. With one strike, he shattered the Buddha’s head!
“You dare slay a Buddha; you shall face the wrath of heaven!”
The fallen Buddha head wore a hideous expression, like a transformed Asura.
“That’s a discussion for later; you should go meet the King of Hell first!”
Zhou Tong replied casually, waving his hand as terrifying sword energy surged forth.
“Heavenly Sword, Armageddon Lotus!”
The radiant lotus struck the Buddha head, reducing it to dust.
Without a moment to spare, he turned and unleashed a strike towards the Buddha’s body.
“Omniverse Illusion Seal!”
“Boom!!!”
In that instant, the hundred zhang golden body exploded like tofu, leaving behind only a lotus platform.
“Is it dead? Has the great Buddha really been slain?!”
People looked at the void, unable to believe the scene before them.
Even though they were filled with confidence in Zhou Tong—some had even deified him—they never expected that he could so easily crush an Eighth Layer Sage; just where was his limit?
Ignoring the astonishment of the crowd, Zhou Tong smiled faintly, his eyes fixated on the lotus platform.
“What a treasure!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the halo behind him began to revolve again, and the fourth point of light shot out toward the center of the lotus platform, turning a part of it into nothingness.
“How long are you planning to hide? The Sage of the Great Thunder Sound Temple can’t be this weak, can he?”
Zhou Tong surveyed the heavens, speaking nonchalantly: “I recall you seem to have a technique called… the Great Nirvana Technique, right?”
As soon as the words fell, the void trembled, and dazzling rays of light appeared. In that brilliant radiance, Pure Joy Buddha bathed in fire and Nirvana, shining with an indestructible golden body, once again seated upon the lotus platform.
This scene sent a chill through everyone; they never expected such a powerful being from the Great Thunder Sound Temple could have such a means, reborn through Nirvana, even becoming stronger.
“I must thank you for assisting this Buddha in Nirvana, elevating me further!”
Pure Joy Buddha exclaimed, with thunderous words, his gaze playfully observing Zhou Tong.
“What of it?”
Zhou Tong raised his brows slightly, carefree and unrestrained.
“If I could kill you once, I can kill you a second time!”
“Foolish delusions; this Buddha has no flaws!”
“No, you’ve exposed a hole in your ass!”
At this statement, Pure Joy Buddha froze for a moment.
“You misspoke; it’s ‘flaw’!”
Zhou Tong couldn’t help but chuckle, with a teasing look directed at him.
“Take a good feeling; what exactly is a flaw or a hole in your ass?”
Suddenly, the opponent sensed something unusual.
He felt that the lotus platform beneath him was odd, as if something was about to explode!
“Not good!”
Pure Joy Buddha’s face changed dramatically!
