Chapter 694: Five five seven pilgrims, Amitabha Buddha

If Jiang Chen were to be killed, there would truly be nobody left in the Buddhist door, therefore, Jiang Chen now remains fearless.

Since he won’t die, what would he be afraid of?

Endowed with the mighty power of Divine Dao, Jiang Chen bases on the Great Wish Technique, mobilizing the willpower of Amitabha Buddha above Spiritual Mountain, constantly condensing and compressing it.

Gradually, an immense vortex, invisible to the naked eye, appears in the sky above Spiritual Mountain, infinitely devouring beings’ willpower and constantly refining it.

"Go!"

Jiang Chen’s true spirit comes out, transforming into a True Spirit Divine Fire, entering the vortex of willpower and igniting a Divine Fire at its core.

This Divine Fire represents the foundation of Amitabha Buddha. It will refine the beings’ willpower that has been condensed by the vortex, transforming it into pure willpower to serve as the original source of Amitabha Buddha’s birth.

At the moment when the Divine Fire was ignited, deep within the huge vortex, one could vaguely see a phantom Divine Fetus appearing and disappearing.

Within the Divine Fetus, the future supreme ruler of the Buddhist door, Amitabha Buddha, is being nurtured.

Looking at this Divine Fetus, Jiang Chen’s gaze suddenly became extremely deep, as though crossing the River of Time and Space to see the distant future.

He saw that, in the not-too-distant future, an unimaginable divine shadow will be born from this Divine Fetus.

The body of Amitabha Buddha shone like hundreds of billions of stars, standing at a height of sixty million billion world sand grains from the Ganges.

The white tuft between his eyebrows spun clockwise, the size of the tuft was of the same magnitude as Sumeru Mountain, five times its height and breadth; his eyes were bright and clear, as vast as the depths of four oceans combined.

He possessed 84,000 aspects, each aspect had 84,000 virtues, each virtue produced 84,000 rays of light, illuminating the ten directions of the world.

"How strong!"

After glimpsing a corner of Amitabha Buddha’s Dharma body from the future, Jiang Chen was deeply shocked. Such a huge Dharma body, he had only seen it in the ancestral heritage of Worldly Emperor.

But those people, they are all high-ranking Great Divine Transcendents, Innate Saints, such as the Demon Master Kunpeng, the Heavenly Emperor Di Jun, the Twelve Ancestral Witches and other Great Divine Transcendents, possessing boundless divine abilities, capable of destroying heaven and earth.

That the body of Amitabha Buddha can rival these figures from legends demonstrates its prowess. As expected of the founding ancestor of Buddhism, the supreme being born from the Buddhist door’s willpower.

Jiang Chen felt that he had perhaps underestimated Amitabha Buddha. With such a formidable Dharma body, he might be able to rival Great Divine Transcendents upon his birth, surpassing even Tathagata Buddha.

No, even if all the Buddhas on Spiritual Mountain were to revive at once, it’s doubtful if they could be a match for Amitabha Buddha.

After all, Amitabha Buddha is the one who suits the Buddhist doctrine the most. It can be said that he is the supreme champion born from Buddhism, the real ancestor of Buddhism. The power of Buddhism is his power.

In other words, Amitabha Buddha can command all the powers of Buddhism, be it the willpower or the fate, they are all part of his power.

Even the Spiritual Mountain under Jiang Chen’s feet is a part of him.

Such power, can it be resisted by the likes of Tathagata Buddha? This is a real Great Divine Transcendent, capable of destroying heaven and earth.

"Strong, truly strong, with Amitabha Buddha, Buddhism has nothing to worry about."

After confirming the strength of Amitabha Buddha, Jiang Chen felt that the imminent catastrophe of Buddhism is now dealt with. Even if Tathagata Buddha breaks through in the battle, becoming a character on the level of Great Divine Transcendents, he cannot remove him from Spiritual Mountain.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit complacent. He felt like a genius for being able to think of such an ingenious plan to replace all the Buddhas with Divine Dao and completely expel them from Spiritual Mountain.

This is truly encroaching on someone else’s nest, no, even worse. Jiang Chen is indeed stealing all the fruits of the Buddhas’ labour.

If Jiang Chen’s plan succeeds, he can become the ruler of the Three Realms and command a top-tier force.

At that time, even without the Sun Divine Staff and other resources, on the strength of mere Buddhist fate, Jiang Chen could attain the realm of the Great Divine Transcendents.

"Everyone in Spiritual Mountain was a good person!"

"It’s a pity that you were all killed by demons and monsters. But don’t worry, I will avenge you. I will find all the demons who killed you and make them disappear from this world completely."

Jiang Chen’s plan to destroy the Spiritual Mountain was hasty and there were many aspects that could not withstand scrutiny.

For instance, his classification of all the Buddhas of Spiritual Mountain as demons.

There is a major flaw in this. Jiang Chen’s success was due to his quick action, giving no chance for the Buddhas of Spiritual Mountain to react, and killing them all.

If Jiang Chen was even the slightest bit slower in his action, and the Buddhas of Spiritual Mountain had time to react, he would be the one to die.

Jiang Chen ruled the Spiritual Mountain with the banner of revenge for its Buddhas. This formed the basis for his rule, and without it, he lost the justification to continue ruling the Spiritual Mountain.

Therefore, since those Buddhas had died under the name of demons, they should disappear under that name forever.

Otherwise, for every day they exist, Jiang Chen has to worry about them destabilizing his rule.

Remembering the fallen Buddhas, Jiang Chen could not help but harbor a desire to kill. No matter what, it was time to start planning to replace the Buddhas with gods born from willpower.

The birth of the gods marked the first step for Jiang Chen to completely destroy the Buddhas of Spiritual Mountain.

"Eh, what’s going on? Why is there still no sign of the Divine Fetus of Amitabha Buddha being born?"

Jiang Chen, who has returned to reality, suddenly noticed that the Divine Fetus nurturing Amitabha Buddha, despite absorbing so much willpower, was still an illusion and had not changed at all.

"What is this..."

A sense of dread gradually rose in Jiang Chen’s heart.

After some silent calculations, Jiang Chen figured out the reason. Amitabha Buddha was too powerful, resulting in him needing a very long period for gestation, reckoned in the tens of thousands of years, it wouldn’t happen in a short span of time.

"This is troublesome..."

Jiang Chen was a bit troubled. If he had to wait tens of thousands of years for Amitabha Buddha to be born, then he didn’t need Amitabha Buddha at all.

"I got it."

With a sudden idea, Jiang Chen had a plan. He pointed at the vortex center, towards the illusory Divine Fetus. Immediately, the Divine Fetus shattered and turned into a dazzling golden light falling towards the Xiniuhe Continent.

As the golden light disappeared completely, Jiang Chen clasped his hands together and said excitedly: "The ancient ancestor of Buddha, Amitabha, has returned. He will rebuild the Pure Land in the West to guide all beings."

Jiang Chen’s voice was not loud but it resounded throughout the entire Xiniuhe Continent. The next moment, as if responding to his voice, all things related to Amitabha Buddha in the Xiniuhe Continent burst forth with dazzling Buddha light.

Seeing this, all beings were moved to tears, clasping their hands together, incessantly praising out loud: "Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha."

With the call of all beings, the shattered Divine Fetus above the Spiritual Mountain reformed again, becoming more condensed than before. However, there was emptiness inside. There was no trace of Amitabha Buddha.

Just now, the true spirit of Amitabha Buddha had been sent by Jiang Chen to the Xiniuhe Continent to reincarnate as a living creature.

According to normal methods, it would take at least tens of thousands of years for Amitabha Buddha to be born. Jiang Chen simply could not wait that long. Therefore, he thought of utilizing the power of all beings to speed up the birth of Amitabha Buddha.

With the aid of all beings, the speed of Amitabha Buddha’s birth would undoubtedly increase countless times. It might even happen by the time of the great Buddhist disaster.

If not, Amitabha Buddha will reincarnate for ten lifetimes in the time to come to accumulate merit from ten lifetimes and become a glorious scripture scholar.
