Chapter 978

Da Fo Star

The battlefield at Da Fo Star was also nearing its end. The number of Buddhist cultivators from the Buddhist sect had dwindled to one-fifth, and they were surrounded by Ming Xin and his group, on the verge of destruction.

Then the True Buddha appeared, launching a sneak attack without honor. With one strike of the Buddha seal, over a hundred cultivators from the Heavenly Court were turned to dust, momentarily halting their advance.

The true Buddha that appeared comes from the battle at Mahayana Star. The Buddhist cultivators of Mahayana Star were completely defeated, and the Buddha realized that they could not turn the tide. The true Buddha collectively abandoned the battlefield of Mahayana Star and then rushed to Da Fo Star.

Lin Jiang and the other immortals chased after them, but they were still a moment too late, allowing the true Buddha to succeed in a surprise attack.

"The bald donkey is just shameless."

"Let’s deal with those bald donkeys."

The immortals were all furious, shouting that they wanted to eliminate the true Buddhas.

On the cultivator battlefield, Ming Xin and the others became hesitant, afraid that the true Buddha would attack them again, which would mean complete disaster. They wouldn’t even know how to defend themselves.

The Buddhist cultivators took the opportunity to break out of the encirclement, making the situation more complicated.

"Ming Xin, don’t be afraid, quickly deal with your opponent."

Li Canghai sent a message to Ming Xin, informing him that he had received news from the Heavenly Court. The battle at Yinli Star was going poorly, and they might lose. They had to rush over to rescue before they were completely destroyed.

"Sinking Battlefield"

Inside the True Buddha, someone transmitted a message; they had also received news from Yinli Star that the Buddhist sect was going to win.

So they decided to play hardball and directly sank the battlefield, bringing the battlefield between immortals to the cultivators’ side, intending to delay time until the Yinli Star army could defeat the Heavenly Court troops and then come back to attack. The Buddhist sect might even take half of the Tianbei Star Domain’s immortal planets.

"Run, run fast!"

"Hurry up!"

When Ming Xin and the others saw the True Buddha appear, they immediately turned and ran away.

Those who ran slowly were directly wiped out; the clash between the immortals and the True Buddha sent shockwaves of power that turned many cultivators into dust, which made Li Canghai extremely angry, as many of them were his disciples and grandchildren.

Yinli Star

The teleportation array base has been destroyed, with robots sparking everywhere, all broken by Buddhist cultivators, and the teleportation array has also been damaged.

But the followers of Buddhism cannot be happy, because large dark clouds are gathering in the sky above Yinli Star.

Someone is about to change their fate.

To be more precise, someone is looking for their own end.

A Transmigration Stage cultivator prepares carefully for Transmigration, making sure everything is in place before taking a careful step; in this case, Transmigration is like seeking death.

And the one seeking death is Tang He, a Transmigration Stage elder of Yinli Star.

This is his hidden card, a card he achieved with his life.

Like his friend Taoist Di, he could have Transmigrated long ago, but he hesitated to do it.

Because there are not many on Yinli Star who can take charge, if he leaves, Yinli Star would be in great danger. Everyone knows that war will come eventually.

Dark clouds continued to gather, and the area around Tang He for miles became a no-entry zone. No one dared to approach because, with their strength, if they entered, the Heavenly Path would surely misjudge, and then the thunderstorm would double, putting everyone in danger.

"Amitabha"

Bodhisattva Hui Ming recited a Buddhist chant, feeling great admiration for Tang He, who dedicated himself to the path, which not everyone can do.

Both armies stopped their fighting, with only minor skirmishes remaining. The main forces focused on Tang He, watching his every move because they all knew what he was about to do next.

"Retreat"

As soon as Tang He moved, a large number of Buddhist cultivators immediately retreated, all the way back outside Yinli Star.

Tang He was in hot pursuit, using all his spiritual power, not to resist the Heavenly Tribulation, but to gain speed, even employing the Burning Life Secret Method.

"Boom"

The thunderstorm struck right above Tang He, as a terrifying bolt split into thirteen parts, hitting thirteen people, including Tang He. The first bolt’s power was equivalent to the seventh or eighth bolt that a normal person would face, and right there, someone was turned to ashes by the lightning.

"Okay, I can do it one more time."

Tang He was not dead, but he was about to die. He quickly swallowed a pill, hoping to try again.

"Looking for trouble."

Hui Kong was very angry but did not dare to step forward. At this moment, killing Tang He would be meaningless. Just now, thirteen people were misjudged by Heavenly Dao. As long as these thirteen people were not all dead, the Heavenly Tribulation would not stop unless they could survive the nine thunder trials.

"Amitabha."

"Senior Brother Hui Ming, I will go ahead."

The few living Buddhist cultivators said to Hui Ming, then rushed forward to directly slay the severely injured Tang He. They looked up and saw that the Heavenly Tribulation had not yet disappeared, and then they turned to look at the cultivators from the Heavenly Court.

"Haha…"

"Are you sacrificing yourself for the path?"

"Is it suicide?"

"I can do it too."

In the next moment, Taoist Friend Di moved. After laughing loudly, he jumped into the Heavenly Tribulation and attacked the remaining Buddhist cultivators. In just ten minutes, he defeated them. They were already injured and had no chance to escape.

Taoist Friend Di took one last look at the Heavenly Tribulation, which had not yet faded. He had also been marked by the Heavenly Path and needed to continue his Transmigration.

"Senior Brother Hui Ming, my junior brother has already gone."

Another Bodhisattva from the Buddhist sect descended, making the Heavenly Tribulation even more terrifying. Even in the records of the Heavenly Court, there had never been such a fearsome Heavenly Tribulation. The dark clouds were about to cover half of Yinli Star.

"Hui Ming, old bald donkey, keep raising the stakes, come on!"

While Taoist Friend Di fought with the Bodhisattva, he roared at Hui Ming. Both sides used this tactic to fuel the battle, and in the end, the result was that everyone perished together; no one could escape.

This is also why no one dared to use the Transmigration technique before; once you start, you cannot stop. You must pay with lives to continue.

Hui Ming’s face was as dark as water. He admitted that the Heavenly Court’s trick put them in a very difficult position. They had many people, but they were losing a lot.

"Heavenly Court’s cultivators, get ready for the next wave. We might die, but our home will be saved."

Taoist Friend Di shouted at the cultivators of the Heavenly Court. Some were so scared that their faces turned pale, some felt a rush of excitement, while others remained silent.

"Boom!"

The second lightning strike came down, much stronger than before. The Buddhist Bodhisattva was struck dead, while Taoist Friend Di was left with just one breath.

Hui Ming took a deep breath; the scariest thing happened. If that last lightning strike had killed both of them, the trial would have ended, but since Taoist Friend Di hadn’t died, another round was coming.

"Die!"

Once again, a Buddhist cultivator attacked, and from the Heavenly Court, a Transmigration Stage cultivator stepped forward. With such huge forces on both sides, there were always people willing to sacrifice themselves, just like there were always those who were afraid.

"Retreat!"

"Spread out"

Taoist Friend Di managed to save himself, but he strained every bit of strength to rush towards the Buddhist side. The people on the Buddhist side quickly scattered and fled, everyone running for their lives.

"Boom"

In the end, the third thunder tribulation came down. Taoist Friend Di did not catch up to the Buddhist cultivator; he was too badly injured and had little strength left to chase.

The third thunder tribulation was dozens of times stronger than the ninth thunder tribulation of the ordinary Transmigration Stage. This time, there was no doubt about it—everyone caught in the thunder tribulation died completely.

However, even though they died, the thunder tribulation did not disappear. It was not illogical; rather, another powerful Transmigration Stage being attracted the Heavenly Tribulation.

"Brother Chen, why is it like this?"

"If I don’t die and you don’t die, then everyone will die. Taoist Friend Di and Taoist Friend Tang can die for their own cause; why can’t I? These years, Blue Star’s entertainment culture has spread to every planet. Have you all forgotten the old days?"

The person said calmly. They were born and raised in the sect, and all their education taught them that the sect is paramount. When the sect faces difficulties, disciples should sacrifice for the sect.

Over the years, they have been too comfortable. The entertainment life of Blue Star is so rich that it makes people reluctant to leave behind the mundane world; it seems they have forgotten the teachings of the past.

But he did not forget. The deaths of Taoist Friend Di and the others sparked his courage. Since someone has to make a sacrifice, he can do it.

"Heavenly Court, sigh."

The footsteps of the Buddhist cultivator were blocked once again. When Hui Ming saw this scene, he felt a deep sense of emotion.

Is this really Heavenly Court? Is this what a cultivator looks like? They are not what he imagined cultivators to be.

Former disciples of the Buddhist sect looked down on Heavenly Court in this regard because Buddhist cultivators can sacrifice themselves for their Buddha Master, for the teachings, and for any needs of the temple at any time.

So when Heavenly Court says they are very fanatical, like madmen, they do not see it this way. They think it is faith, it is devotion. On the contrary, they look down on Heavenly Court’s selfishness and cowardice. For countless years of struggle, the Buddhist sect has been at an advantage, but today, Hui Ming feels as though he has come to understand Heavenly Court anew. There is a reason why Heavenly Court has been able to stand strong until now.
