Chapter 1076: Chapter 492: The Third Transgression of the Rules, The Mother of all Evils Buddha’s Immortal Divinity

[The term ’demon’ was both familiar and foreign to the common folk; familiar because it often appeared in the strange legends and novels that circulated among the public, yet foreign because no one had ever seen the so-called demons.]

[Let alone demons, they had never even seen a spirited elf first awakening its intelligence in the wilds.]

[And the so-called ’Demon Gods’ seemed to only ever appear in the scriptures and thangka paintings of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, as mounts or protectors.]

[No one had ever truly encountered a Demon God in person...]

[With the ’Mother of all Evils Buddha’ showing saintly descent, and the appearance of a terrifyingly extreme Demon God, the streets and alleys of Uss City were soon filled with squads of the ’Fire Worship Army’ in black armor, their gazes brimming with malice.]

[At the beginning of Emperor Wu’s reign, he established the ’Announcement Court’ to manage the affairs of the Vermilion Fire Worship and to oversee temples and monasteries everywhere.]

[But now, with Fire Worship regarded as the state religion that overshadowed everything else, and all commoners disciples of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, people had long forgotten the ’Announcement Court’ and the officialdom, knowing only of Fire Worship.]

[Worldly devotees and incense customers were controlled by temples and monasteries, while the government and military power were also in their grasp; fundamentally, both belonged to ’Fire Worship,’ governing not only human faith but also the land and the people...]

[The ’Fire Worship Army’ pushed out numerous heavy siege weapons, such as crossbow carts and stone-throwers, aiming at the colossal beasts, poised to strike...]

[You gazed upon the giant mother Buddha statue shrouded in swirling dark mist before you, looking down at the ants below that took aim at you, and let out a dragon roar that thundered through the heavens!]

[You opened your dragon jaws, and the surging, powerful World-ending Black Flame gathered in your mouth; the intense, scorching, venomous Dragon Breath caused the surrounding air to subtly twist and steam.]

[The ’World-ending Black Flame’ then burst forth, sweeping across the entire giant Buddha statue, engulfing the ’Mother of all Evils Buddha’ in endless black flames!]

[Even the stone Buddha statue, graced by an ’Immortal’ spirit, failed to withstand such destructive attacks. The raging black flames made the giant Buddha sizzle, showing signs of melting away...]

[The ’Mother of all Evils Buddha’ suddenly enlarged the white bone bowl in her hands, drawing all the black flames into it, revealing the originally dignified and sacred stone Buddha body, now marred with scorched marks...]

[Nearly reaching the skies, the ’Great Wisdom Sword’ cleaved through the still-spewing infinite black flames, slashing towards your dragon head...]

[With a roar, you activated the ’Oath of the Ancient Dragon’!]

[In an instant, you transformed from an ominous Ancient Dragon enveloped in poisonous gas into the ’Scarlet King’!]

[Your limbs became stronger, your scales tougher, and your entire body blazed with towering flames!]

[As you changed your ancient dragon shape, the ’Destruction Armor of the Final Dragon’ also became an even more robust and thicker scarlet armor!]

[As the ’Great Wisdom Sword’ closed in, you unfurled your massive Dragon Wings that blotted out the sun, wrapping yourself within them, withstanding this earth-shattering strike!]

[Using the momentum, you spun around, your thick dragon tail studded with fierce bone spurs cut through the air, along with a sonic boom that made the ground tremble, and instantly whipped towards the Buddha statue!]

[The ’Mother of all Evils Buddha’ could not fend off this ferocious attack, and the giant Buddha statue staggered back, crushing countless houses. Dense cracks appeared on the stone Buddha...]

[With a flap of your Wings, you stirred up a sandstorm hurricane and your colossal dragon frame soared into the sky!]

[You leaped atop the great Buddha statue’s head, your sharp and edged rear Dragon Claws embedded into the shoulders of the Buddha statue, and then you twisted your body with force!]

[The tens of thousands of citizens of Uss City heard a loud crunch at the same time as they looked up at the boundless power of the ’Mother of all Evils Buddha’ statue...]

[They saw the arms of the great Buddha statue being torn off by the terrifying demon beast, with the two massive stone arms crashing down with a thunderous roar, along with the Mother’s Magical Artifact, the ’Great Wisdom Sword’ and the ’white bone bowl,’ flattening many buildings.]

[The usually indifferent masses showed faces of terror; this was a confrontation between the ’Mother’ and the ’Demon God’, a battle among the divine. Merely looking up conjured immense fear in mortals!]

[Their faith in the Wet Nurse was clearly no match for the terrifying extent of the ’Demon God’. Merely at the beginning of the face-off, the horrifying Dragon Demon ripped off both arms; the ’Mother’ not only lost two Magical Artifacts but also the qualification to continue battling with the Demon God!]

[Yet an even more terrifying scene, one that would be etched in their memories for life, lay ahead...]

[The menacing Ancient Dragon standing on the shoulders of the Buddha statue let out a roar, extinguishing the blazing scarlet flame on its body, as the scales that once glowed like fire now covered in a golden luster of lightning...]

[At the same time, the Firmament darkened with thick clouds, as countless lightning snakes billowed through the dense cover!]

[Suddenly!]

[The sky darkened, and a deadly hush fell; a Shining God Thunderbolt that illuminated all Darkness and suppressed every Evil, struck down with divine retribution!]

[It was said that true Daoist immortals capturing the essence of heaven and earth would face the Nine Heavy Lightning Disaster upon breaking through the Celestial limits—only by surviving could they achieve their status and attain immortality.]

[This shining thunder could be likened to a World-ending Lightning Tribulation. Could the ’Mother of all Evils Buddha’, worshipped by countless followers, survive this trial?]

[The Shining God Thunder struck down, its blinding golden light illuminating the whole Uss City, rendering the scene within the World-ending Lightning impossible to discern.]

[When the thunderlight faded, the people could see the terrifying demon beast flapping its sky-obscuring wings, with its rear claws tearing at the shoulders of the Mother, carrying the immovable giant Buddha statue wrapped in myriad circling lightning snakes high into the air.]
