Chapter 246: Chapter 184: Gathering Together

Hearing what the Great Bright Buddha had said, Dong’er looked at him incredulously, "What did you say?"

The Great Bright Buddha flicked his fingertips, and as the Buddha light bloomed, three elders gradually appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing this, Dong’er was first startled, then immediately raised Zhao Wanxi’s cell phone to take a look.

Looking at the lens showing an empty scene, she said angrily, "Are you going to deceive us with an illusion again?"

The Great Bright Buddha shook his head and spoke indifferently, "I have realized that you have seen through my illusion with this black box."

Just then, the originally empty cell phone lens first revealed the three elders, then they disappeared again.

Clearly, at this moment, the Great Bright Buddha’s illusion had affected everyone’s vision as they looked at the cell phone screen.

"If I had wanted to deceive you all, I would simply have covered this black box with my illusion."

"The reason I am using illusion to reveal these three people is only for the convenience of your communication."

The Great Bright Buddha continued to say, "If you want to know whether they are real or fake, just speak with them for a few sentences, and you’ll know."

Dong’er observed the three elders closely, noticing that they were all old people who had once lived in the same village as her and were believers who, according to the legends, had prayed for thirty years and had already ascended to buddhahood at She Shen Cliff.

While she was thinking this, one of the old men spoke up, "Dong’er, don’t misunderstand our Buddha; we have indeed become buddhas, enjoying supreme bliss in the Buddha Realm..."

Dong’er questioned, "You are just illusions created by the Great Bright Buddha; of course, he will make you say whatever he wants."

Another old woman said, "Dong’er, do you remember me, old woman? When you were young, I even lent your family grain."

Another old man said, "Dong’er, it was I who helped name you, do you not remember?"

As the elders went on talking, one after another, their words were all about various matters related to the village and Dong’er.

Listening to this, Dong’er’s expression gradually changed from disbelief, to puzzlement, to suspicion, to hesitation.

Meanwhile, the Great Bright Buddha explained from the side, "The decay of the flesh is not true death."

"All believers, after becoming buddhas, can shed the shackles of the body and transfer their souls to the Jile Buddha Country that I have created; as long as the Buddha Country exists, they are immortal."

The Great Bright Buddha’s soft gaze swept over the crowd, and the Buddha Sound that accompanied his speech spread throughout the venue, "I dissolve the sins of all beings, creating a paradise on earth."

"I gather the faith of the people, opening up the Jile Buddha Country, leading the faithful towards everlasting life."

"If one day I am able to spread the Buddhist Law throughout the world, I would be able to bring peace to the entire world. The people would live in harmony, without worries for food and clothing, and in the future, everyone could abandon their physical form and enjoy eternal bliss..."

As the Buddha Sound continuously flowed into the ears of everyone present, a look of longing and emotion seemed to appear on their faces.

Longing for the spread of Buddhism in the golden age that Great Bright Buddha had described, moved by the Great Bright Buddha’s resolve to save all beings.

Seeing that the people present were gradually leaning towards the Great Bright Buddha, the black-robed Zhou Tian Sect Elder was unbelievably confused, "Save all beings? Could this Great Bright Buddha truly be so benevolent?"

The situation before him was something he had never anticipated.

He originally thought that this Great Bright Buddha was similar to him; both of them ruled over their domains with great power, turning innumerable lives into fuel for their own advancement.

As for the promises of rapid advancement he had made to the people below, those were just empty words.

In his imagination, their confrontation would be him using illusions to bewilder the crowd, while he would counter with a series of fabricated memories.

But he didn’t expect that the other party would simply remove the illusion, acting all reasonable and factual.

Hearing this, he couldn’t help feeling that the other party seemed to be serious and not just talking.

"If that’s the case, continuing this confrontation would be disadvantageous for me..."

The black-robed man knew that the memories he had imposed upon the people with the Yuhua Reincarnation Chapter were not their true memories; if the confrontation continued, they would inevitably fall through.

He snorted coldly, "Words are not proof. Are you all as gullible as three-year-olds to believe this evil spirit after only a few words?"

"Think about your own experiences; those are the real, undeniable truths."

"Let’s suppress the Great Bright Buddha for now; as for his actions, we could discuss them later."

At the same time, with a shake of his hand, streams of memories were already rushing into the group of Bodhisattva Arhats through the silver threads.

In an instant, they seemed to recall their humiliating experience of being captured by the Bright Temple as Taiching Sect disciples and being brainwashed through various deceptions.

At that moment, they also broke free from the influence of the Great Bright Buddha and immediately lashed out at him with a loud shout.

Although these dozens of old men and women were pretending to be Bodhisattva Arhats, they displayed formidable strength as soon as they took action.

Among them were martial arts masters, some with astonishing Taoist skills, and there were even those adept at using talismanic techniques, Demon Suppressing Dharma, and Five Elements Taoist Skill...

Clearly, these old men and women were masters from various different factions.

Seeing this scene, the Evil-cutting Sect Master bellowed, and a nine-colored ring of fire suddenly rose behind him, transforming into fiery dragons that scorched towards the many masters.

"Have you forgotten the favor of my Buddha’s salvation and now repay kindness with enmity?"

The blinding nine-colored firelight brought with it fierce heat, and in an instant turned the scene into a blazing furnace.

Each color of the firelight even burst forth with its own mystique, whether melting gold and iron, consuming Taoist skills, or unleashing Qi Force...

On the other side, Fairy Yunxiao lightly tapped her fingers, creating talismans that formed in mid-air, which then transformed into Yellow Turban Warriors charging forward.

These Yellow Turban Warriors were all tall and clad in magnificent golden armor, each movement bringing forth streaks of golden lightning.

Witnessing this scene, Luo Wengao thought to himself, "Such powerful Yellow Turban Warriors, truly worthy of the Spirit Treasure Sect’s Fairy Yunxiao."

"That red-robed elder seems to have also achieved the power to form actual sceneries..."

As Luo Wengao marveled at the unfathomable power of the two individuals, apprehensive that his own side was no match for them,

he quickly realized that those old men and women from the various factions of the Jianghu actually fought the Evil-cutting Sect Master and Fairy Yunxiao to a standstill.

The Evil-cutting Sect Master also felt surprised, as among those dozens of people, quite a few were strong practitioners who had mastered the second legacies.

Although each had only mastered one or two techniques from the second legacy to transcendence, and were far from his match in single combat, they could still stand against him and Fairy Yunxiao when they all struck together.

Especially since he felt a trace of familiarity in the breaths while clashing with these masters.

Fairy Yunxiao internally remarked, "Is this the Golden Dawn Sect’s palm technique? The Five Elements Sect’s Five Elements Taoist Skill, and the Feitian Sword Sect’s flying swords..."

These old men and women were clearly from renowned sects within the Jianghu.

Though not ranked among the top nine sects, they could still be considered to come from prestigious factions.

At this point, the Evil-cutting Sect Master became even more curious as to what kind of great villain managed to chase these masters all the way and force them to hide in the Da Guangming Temple for so long.

Just as the two sides were locked in a tense battle, the Great Bright Buddha suddenly flicked his fingers, and streaks of Buddha light emanated.

Luo Wengao only saw a blur before his eyes as the roaring flames in the sky and the Yellow Turban Warriors dressed in golden armor suddenly disappeared.

He immediately realized, "Is this the illusion of the Great Bright Buddha’s heart?"

In an instant, two elders suddenly combusted spontaneously, screaming as they fell to the ground.

Luo Wengao knew he must be in an illusion now.

The enemy was clearly attacking them, but Luo Wengao couldn’t see or hear them, filling him with extreme fear.

At that moment, he heard someone in a black robe, shaking his hands that held silver threads, command softly, "Obey my order!"

His eyes were immensely deep, as if he could see through the illusion cast by the Great Bright Buddha.

Immediately, memories flowed through the silver threads towards the many masters.

The Evil-cutting Sect Master and Fairy Yunxiao quickly realized that the masters, who just a moment ago appeared bewildered, suddenly seemed to sense their presence again.

The battle once again reached a stalemate, but the man in the black robe revealed a slight smile at this moment.

He looked over to Luo Wengao and said, "Go and call those people over here."

Luo Wengao immediately ran out and soon returned, leading twenty temporary disciples who were ambushed in the distance.

These twenty were also Jianghu individuals who had become temporary disciples like them.

However, before they could get close to the battlefield, another unexpected event unfolded.

Taking advantage of the chaos in the ongoing fight, Jing Shiyu had already placed a transformed folding frame on the ground, forming the appearance of a doorway.

During the ten-minute exchange between the two sides, she maintained the casting of the Secret Technique.

At this moment, giant metallic boxes rose from the ground.

Lin Xing’s figure also became visible to everyone present.
