Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 601 - 598: Harmonization?
Looking at the Heaven-Covering response that seemed to violently react to the sky and earth, the thunder transformed by the Celestial Punishment Eye in Tathagata's hand really fell short.
Lu Ren stepped forward, surrounded by tens of thousands of thundering strikes, countless bolts cascading like a heavenly river, carrying endless destructiveness, as if turning this starry sky into a realm of thunder.
Adding to Lu Ren's displeasure was the sound of Buddhist chants filling his ears, a pollution to the spirit indeed, considering his past mastery of the Three Lives True Scripture and his deep understanding of Buddhist paths.
"Trying to enlighten me?"
Lu Ren's gaze turned icy, his internal Qi and Blood surged like a tsunami, Witch Power instantly infusing his hand, grabbing a twisting bolt of thunder beside him.
His eyes sparkled; beneath the Ancestral Witch Body, his sight could penetrate the microscopic, comprehending its essence.
The Celestial Punishment thunder, driven by a treasure, was essentially just the most mechanical destructive force, far from the spontaneous cosmic force that births pure life force when destruction reaches its peak.
Lu Ren's speed did not pause at all, instantly charging into the tribulation cloud. Upon his entry, a vertical eye suddenly shone gloriously, the thunder's intensity in this starry domain grew exponentially.
Golden thunder, substantial like a giant snake, twisted and coiled, hundreds weaving together, each wave of thunderstorm higher than the last.
If it were the world's end by divine punishment, gods vanishing, those distant witnessed this scene with shock, especially the Shenxiao Sect known for mastering Shenxiao thunder. The Daoists muttered ceaselessly, feeling their mountain face challenged by such astounding Buddhist thunder mastery.
Especially since Shenxiao Sect, dominating within Taoist branches, traces its heritage from the mythological era, and although lacking Secret Realms like Dragon Tiger Mountain, it has produced True Immortal figures.
Yet, regardless of the raging thunder, Lu Ren remained unscathed within, as though bathing in thunder, unfazed.
Vaguely, wielding a sword forged from Thick Earth Essence Qi, he seemed to stroll leisurely amidst the storm.
Importantly, his armor formed from Thick Earth Essence Qi was impervious to the thunder's wrath.
Upon seeing Lu Ren charge into the tribulation cloud, Tathagata's expression darkened. Before he could respond, the next moment, an indescribably giant sword dragged lightning dragons from the thunder sea, clashing violently with the Celestial Punishment Eye.
Tathagata's merciful gaze abruptly shifted, turning grim. At this instant, he could not react, as though transcending dimensions, slowing time and space.
He only managed to cast a Seal Technique, then watched helplessly as a longsword pierced deep into the Celestial Punishment Eye's pupil.
In that instant, the brilliance was so intense even tribulation clouds dispersed, violent thunder shattered and vanished.
Despite Tathagata's Buddha's Golden Body Primordial Spirit Dharma Aspect unfolding, capable not just of perceiving the world's extremities from macro to micro, but also of dimension probing through the Primordial Spirit's viewpoint, understanding legal principles, and discerning rules.
Yet, with Lu Ren's Heavy Sword piercing the Celestial Punishment Eye, Tathagata could not see the thunder tide dispersing and bright lights rising, only witnessing a vast expanse of blinding light, concealing the scene within.
Boom!!
Air waves surged like a tsunami, thunder exploded as stars fragmented.
From one collision, jade stones at untold distances shifted trajectories due to such indescribable aftermath.
Suddenly, Tathagata grunted; the Celestial Punishment Eye, a treasure refined for over a hundred thousand years and obtained from unknown lands, lost its Spiritual Mechanism entirely under Lu Ren's sword, even causing some mental wounds.
A blaze of anger ignited in his heart, Buddha's avatar surrounded by flaming Buddha Lotus, transforming the calm Dharma Aspect into a wrathful Ming King Statue, attempting extreme worldly attacks to cleanse existence.
Tathagata whispered Buddhist teachings, narrating the Buddha's sect of tranquility, severing the endless path of Red Dust; his colossal Golden Body Buddha erupted countless Buddha Light from every minute place, intricately woven with infinite Buddha textures, Sanskrit chants, and strange Buddhist characters circling around him.
Almost in an eyeblink, endless Buddhist writings spread, vast as the starry skies, seemingly endless.
"Boundless Sea of Suffering, Turn Back to the Shore."
With Tathagata's low murmuring of Buddha's name, the world paused dramatically, infinite Buddhist texts suddenly burst forth, evolving into a Buddha Country, floating above the Sea of Suffering, alongside dimensional shifts, dragging Lu Ren into a seemingly illusory realm.
Dimly, Lu Ren could even perceive Tathagata synchronizing with this starry sky, wielding limitless power.
Emerging from the light, Lu Ren squinted, staring intently at Tathagata.
"Harmonization?"
Indeed, it was Harmonization; Tathagata unfolded the Primordial Spirit Dharma Aspect, its immense Buddha avatar infused with Qi Mechanism Realm subtly synchronizing with this starry domain.
It appeared as a mutual connection under Tathagata's Secret Technique Seal, swiftly guided by him, thus entering Harmonization, summoning this cosmic power.
Perhaps even if the Jade Emperor witnessed this maneuver, he would be forced to avoid confrontation.
Lu Ren's expression turned slightly serious, indeed, such individuals were reputed from the Mythical Era, not casually spoken of.
He glanced at the Jade Emperor engaged in a desperate battle with Queen Mother of the West, then unhesitatingly rushed at Tathagata.
Step by step, Lu Ren's body unleashed extreme brilliance from 365 Major Acupoints, bathing in boundless Power of the Stars, his Life Star transformed into a perpetual source of energy, and behind him, a corner of endless void aspect unfolded.
This divine might was ocean-like, akin to a terrifying god descending from higher dimensions, stepping from ancient wilderness, poised to battle the heavens and earth, sweeping all before.
Tathagata was equally resolute, rising from the void, immediately clashing with Lu Ren.
Boundless Mana, immense Witch Power, various forces interweaving, nearly turning this starry domain into a vast ocean, a Demon-Subduing Pestle, countless miles long, descended toward Lu Ren's head, rumbling through the void, roaring thunder like stars crashing down.
Lu Ren did not lift his head, his longsword transformed into a great axe, shattering the Demon-Subduing Pestle, then fiercely battling the Tathagata Buddha Dharma Aspect now displaying Three Heads and Six Arms.
Within the Inner Realm, transforming into Pangu's magic, wielding a giant axe in continuous high-intensity world-cleaving for a year had already forged a skill within his skillset.
(Only one chapter today; apologies for being so busy, life is full of too many trivial matters.)
