Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 985 - 983: The Buddha’s Mother Kneels in Submission, Dominance Over the Buddhist Sect! [First Update]

Chapter 985: Chapter 983: The Buddha’s Mother Kneels in Submission, Dominance Over the Buddhist Sect! [First Update]

Outside the Buddha Palace.

The entire Spirit Mountain fell into an eerie silence.

As the Mother of Buddha regained her Buddhist consciousness, she no longer exhibited the explosive fury of before, and not a single trace of emotional fluctuation could be discerned upon her. She simply watched the Buddha Palace in front of her quietly, her eyes as deep as the night sky, devoid of any luster.

At this moment, the Mother of Buddha was putting all her effort into adjusting her state of mind.

Although the Buddhist faction and her own life were completely controlled by Xiao Yi, in a tight grip without leeway,

But...

What truly made her apologize to Xiao Yi on her knees in front of everyone

Was still somewhat hard for the Mother of Buddha to accept.

However,

If she didn’t do as Xiao Yi said, not to mention the enormous impact going against her Buddhist vow would cause, merely angering Xiao Yi was a consequence she could not afford.

This was what the Mother of Buddha found most unacceptable.

"Who would have thought Xiao Yi would be capable of dissolving Buddha Island? Alas, after he comes out, I shall properly apologize to him..." Despite the unwillingness in her heart, under Xiao Yi’s control of the very foundation and lifeline of the Buddhist sect, she had no choice but to bow her head.

She was simply overpowered by circumstances!

At this moment,

A faint disturbance traveled through the void, and atop Spirit Mountain, a Void Rift appeared out of thin air.

Whoosh!

The Buddha, dusty and hasty, rushed out from the rift, glancing at the hole-ridden Spirit Mountain, the shattered stairway to heaven, and the countless cities within the holy land of Spirit Mountain ablaze with war and filled with mournful wails. His face instantly turned extremely grim.

Was this the perfect Buddhist holy land of his heart?

Was it still the Buddhist paradise where everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment?

How had it become like this?

Up the incomplete stairway, he even sensed the blood aura of the Southern Supreme Venerable and other Buddha Supremes. What on earth had happened?

Even the high and mighty Buddha Supremes had fallen?

No wonder he could feel that the fate of the Buddhist faction had decreased by a full ten percent.

With so many Buddha Supremes gone.

How could the fate of Buddhism not decline?

Boom!

The Buddha teleported to the summit of Spirit Mountain, his eyes narrowing into slits, and stared intently at the Mother of Buddha, demanding solemnly, "What exactly happened here?"

The Mother of Buddha gave a bitter smile, glanced at the Buddha Palace in front of her, and said, "All this was done by our new current Buddha!"

Hiss!

The Buddha took a sharp breath of cold air.

Even though he had previously witnessed Xiao Yi’s stature and strength in the Boundless Buddha Sea, in his mind, Xiao Yi, who could establish a foothold in the Boundless Buddha Sea, must be a person of great destiny with Buddhism. How could such a being possibly devastate the holy land of Spirit Mountain to this extent?

"Even if one seeks to attain the Buddha Fruit Position, there’s no need to unleash such large-scale slaughter on Spirit Mountain, right? What exactly happened, what on earth took place while I was away..." The Buddha’s face was dark, his speech slow and extremely serious.

He had painstakingly stationed himself on the outer realm battlefield, only for his headquarters to suffer such a severe blow.

The sorry state of Spirit Mountain now completely overshadowed his joy at having an additional Holy Buddha join the Buddhist sect.

The Mother of Buddha hesitated for a moment, but knowing she couldn’t hide the truth, she honestly told the Buddha about what had happened.

After hearing the Mother of Buddha’s narration, the Buddha was silent for a long time.

A moment later,

The Buddha declared solemnly, "Once this issue is settled, you will go to the outer realm battlefield and guard it for five thousand years!"

The twin saints of Buddhism always took turns stationing themselves on the outer realm battlefield.

And each tour of duty would not exceed a thousand years.

After all,

Although the outer realm battlefield was indeed where powerhouses should be, it was extremely dangerous.

Even Sacred Venerate Realm powerhouses could accidentally perish there.

The current Buddha of those times had died on the outer realm battlefield.

For the Buddha to order a direct five thousand years of guardianship was already an extremely strict punishment; the Mother of Buddha might well never return if not careful. However, the Mother of Buddha knew she had indeed made a mistake, as she had been beguiled by the Celestial Dragon Supreme from the start and stood against Xiao Yi.

But...

Given another chance, she would certainly choose to stand with the Celestial Dragon Supreme again.

After all,

Compared to the Celestial Dragon Supreme, Xiao Yi at the time, without even the cultivation of the Supreme Venerate Realm, was too weak and lacked presence.

"Right, did you say that you entered into a contract with Xiao Yi with your Buddhist heart?" asked the Buddha.

The Mother of Buddha’s face stiffened, and she nodded: "Correct, I lost to him and must kneel and apologize to him publicly."

"..."

The Buddha Ancestor was utterly baffled.

To witness the Buddha Mother kneeling and apologizing in public? Even if the other party was the newly risen Present Buddha, it was enough to tarnish the Buddha Mother’s reputation and greatly affect her esteemed position within the Buddhist community. However, since the other party had formed the contract with a Buddhist heart, he couldn’t intervene.

With a sympathetic gaze at the Buddha Mother, the Buddha Ancestor forced a smile and said, "Amitabha, you must do what you think is right!"

"Hmm!"

The Buddha Mother nodded with a grim face.

Together, they turned their eyes to the Buddha Palace in front of them.

All the information about Xiao Yi learned through the Buddha Mother’s words, and the various visions seen in the Boundless Buddha Sea, kept surfacing in the Buddha Ancestor’s mind. He murmured deeply, "Fortune relies on disaster, and disaster on fortune. Perhaps, this is not necessarily a calamity for our Buddhist community, but could also be an opportunity for our resurgence to the peak..."

The Buddha Mother stared blankly for a moment, thinking of the miracles created by Xiao Yi, and couldn’t help but nod in agreement: "If Xiao Yi could become the leader of the Buddhist community, it might indeed be a blessing for us!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The gates of the Buddha Palace slowly opened, and at that moment, the chanting sounds of countless devout believers emerged from the palace. Luxurious and majestic golden lights shone forth, and in the glow of the golden light, Xiao Yi’s appearance was solemn, like a true Buddha revealing his holiness.

With every step he took, Earth-Spring Golden Lotuses sprang up, surrounded by brilliant halos of light.

The once ruined Spirit Mountain seemed to have been revitalized with dazzling holy light as Xiao Yi returned.

"Such a dazzling light..."

"I can’t even open my eyes?"

"This is the true Buddha descending to the mortal world..."

Buddhist powerhouses looked at each other in the sacred light of the Buddha, and they all prayed devoutly with their hands pressed together. In particular, the strong ones from Shaolin Temple were even more reverently kneeling on the ground, muttering prayers. The Four Ancestors of Shaolin were so excited they could hardly contain themselves.

Shaolin Temple had truly given birth to a Holy Buddha!

From now on.

Shaolin Temple could be known as a Holy Temple.

Shaolin Buddha Nation would become the one and only Holy Buddha Nation of the Western Province!

This was of great benefit to them...

Why could the Jingang Child and the Huoyun Child, though not Buddha Supremes, possess combat abilities that surpassed their own? Wasn’t it because they were supported by the Holy Buddha Mother? Now, they too were backed by a Holy Buddha!

The four of them were moved to tears.

Especially the Prajna Supreme, who had nearly perished at the hands of Xiao Yi before; now having regained his body to live another life, his devotion to Xiao Yi was unsurpassed by anyone: "Buddha is merciful, I shall devote my life’s blood in loyalty to You, becoming Your most devout follower."

Veda Supreme and the others followed suit.

This scene was something Xiao Yi had not anticipated, but he soon realized that he had forged the Boundless Buddha Island, condensed the Supreme Holy Buddha Dharma Image, and created the Buddha Nation within the Boundless Buddha Sea. With more than ninety percent of the Buddhist community’s fate within his control, any Buddhist expert would unconsciously revere him.

With this thought.

Xiao Yi’s gaze shifted slightly, looking at the Buddha Mother in front of him.

Though he said nothing.

The message was clear.

Enough! fгeewebnovёl.com

The Buddha Mother showed a moment of struggle, then with a thud, knelt before Xiao Yi amid the watchful eyes of the crowd: "This monk is willing to assume the responsibility of guarding the battlefield outside our domain for five thousand years, to atone for my transgressions, and beg for the Buddha King’s forgiveness..."

Hiss!

In the vast Spirit Mountain, an important sacred place, countless strong beings collectively fell silent.

The Buddha Mother, one of the three holies of Buddhism, actually knelt to Xiao Yi?

And referred to him as the Buddha King?

Taking the responsibility of guarding the outer domain battlefield for five thousand years as punishment?

This scene was a huge shock for them!

Xiao Yi nodded in satisfaction. Although he was keen on killing the Buddha Mother to avenge Little Lin, now that the Buddha Mother had taken such a stance, and with his connection to the fate of Buddhism, he knew that slaying the Buddha Mother would also have a huge impact on him. Moreover, if he continued to trouble the Buddha Mother, he might end up opposing the Buddha Ancestor.

At least for now, he did not wish to make an enemy of another seasoned Sacred Venerate.

With this thought, Xiao Yi waved his hand to signal the Buddha Mother to stand up, and spoke calmly: "Granted!"

"Thank you, Buddha King!"

The Buddha Mother said respectfully.

The Buddha Ancestor also breathed a sigh of relief; he would not have objected if Xiao Yi continued to trouble the Buddha Mother, but he would have been discontented. Now that Xiao Yi had shown such magnanimity, he too was at ease and brought his hands together, chanting the Buddha’s name: "Amitabha, the Buddha King is compassionate! I believe that under the leadership of Xiao Buddha King, our Buddhist community will shine once more!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yi knew that his position as the leader of the Buddhist community was initially secured.

His gaze turned towards the direction of the sacred land, but in his heart, he had other plans: "The situation in the Western Province, where each temple operates independently and the Buddhist nations compete against each other, should be changed!"

At this moment.

The people of the Buddhist community were unaware that a storm that would reshape the landscape of the Western Province was quietly brewing...
