Chapter 419 -319: Buddhist Kingdom in the Palm (2nd Update!)
“Sun Wukong!”
“Buddha!”
Sun Wukong’s figure ascended from midair and flew to a point in the sky level with Tathagata Buddha, where their gazes clashed amidst a crackle of electric currents.
Who said that a gaze couldn’t kill? With the cultivation strength of Tathagata Buddha and Sun Wukong, a person of low cultivation could indeed be stared to death by them!
“Great Sage Equalling Heaven, Sun Wukong! This seat has heard your name more than once, and seeing you today, indeed, your reputation is well deserved! For you to safely return from the Endless Abyss and even break through to the Slaying One Corpse Quasi-Saint Realm, you are truly formidable!”
A smile suddenly surfaced on Tathagata Buddha’s face as he nodded in appreciation towards Sun Wukong.
...
Despite Tathagata Buddha’s praises, Sun Wukong did not feel joyful. Looking at Buddha’s smiling face, memories of the past in which Tathagata Buddha on top of Spiritual Mountain had coerced him into making a blood oath of loyalty under threat of being replaced by Six-Eared Macaque surged in his mind. He felt a wave of nausea and loathing. Whether in a past life or the present, this bald monk had always been so hypocritical and sanctimonious!
“Buddha, instead of cultivating your Buddhism on Spiritual Mountain, why do you come to my Flower-Fruit Mountain to show off? Do you really think the Heavenly Dao Saint is invincible?”
Sun Wukong’s eyes narrowed slightly. He stared intensely at Tathagata Buddha, his eyes flashing with golden light. His Void-Breaking Divine Eye was already activated to its fourth phase, the Void-Breaking Starry Eyes. Facing Tathagata Buddha, he dared not be the slightest bit careless, as this man was the strongest opponent he had ever faced in both his past and present life!
“This seat was invited by the Jade Emperor to subdue the demon. You lower realm demons, unfettered by the decrees of the Heavenly Court and ignorant of the heart of the Heavenly Dao, have you not yet come to repent?”
Tathagata Buddha sighed softly, his expression sereneand dignified. Yet it made Sun Wukong feel nauseous. This bald monk was always such a hypocrite, clearly taking action for the terms agreed upon with the Jade Emperor for immense benefits, acting as an invader in Flower-Fruit Mountain and still speaking so righteously. What Heavenly Dao’s heart? Could he really represent it?
And speaking of subduing demons and dispelling devils, it was clearly military invasion. Just like the shameless scoundrel, the Jade Emperor, nauseating to even glimpse at!
“I, Old Sun, can’t be bothered to waste words with you, you bald donkey! Want a fight, do you? Old Sun will keep you company to the end. Take this strike from Old Sun first!”
A glint of loathing and ferocity flashed in his eyes. Sun Wukong was too impatient to talk any more with Tathagata Buddha. He gripped the Ruyi Golden-Hooped Rod tightly with both hands, channeling the Chaos Primordial Force into it, and lashed out with a rod that unleashed the Chaos Fire sweeping towards Tathagata Buddha.
“Chaos Fire?”
Tathagata Buddha’s face changed, his expression suddenly turning grave. Chaos Fire could give life to everything and also annihilate everything; even the Heavenly Dao Saint would not dare to disregard it.
What was more important, Chaos Fire had only been possessed by two beings in the entire Three Realms from ancient times to the present—Great God Pangu and Hong Jun Daoist Ancestor. Pangu had only grasped it at the time of his downfall, and both were truly Ancestor-level beings who had founded their own worlds. Sun Wukong, merely at the Quasi-Saint Realm, had already grasped the Chaos Fire!
This demon monkey’s talent was truly astonishing!
“Buddhist Kingdom in Palm!”
With one palm strike, a small world of the Buddhist Kingdom materialized, facing the incoming Chaos Fire. A surge of suction emitted from within, drawing the sweeping Chaos Fire into the Buddhist Kingdom’s small world, which immediately began to shake violently as its mountains and rivers collapsed under the scorching of the Chaos Fire.

“Chaos Fire, truly formidable!”
Buddha’s eyes flashed with a glint of sharp light, showing increased greed and wariness toward Sun Wukong. It would be tremendously helpful for the Buddhist Sect if they could bring Sun Wukong under their wing!
But if they could not subdue him, then they must not allow him any further opportunities to grow!
“Domain, Annihilate!”
With a low shout in his heart, the power of the domain within Buddha’s palm surged out, annihilating all the rampaging Chaos Fire in an instant, leaving nothing behind!
“Such strong domain power!” Sun Wukong was secretly amazed. As a fellow possessor of a dominion-level domain, he could clearly sense the formidable strength of Buddha’s domain power— a level of control he was far from reaching.
But, so what?
The Great Sage Equalling Heaven, Sun Wukong, would never easily shrink back just because the enemy was powerful!
In his past life, he had submitted once, and the result was prolonged humiliation and ultimately, tragedy. In this life, he would never submit to anyone, never!
“Heaven-Breaking Domain!”
With a low growl in his heart, Sun Wukong activated the power of his Heaven-Breaking Domain and followed with a swift motion, swinging his rod fiercely toward Buddha’s palm-hosted Buddhist Kingdom.
Boom!
The power of the Heaven-Breaking Domain collided violently with the power of the Immeasurable Buddhist Kingdom’s domain, causing the world within the palm to begin collapsing. Sun Wukong thought he heard a series of tragic screams and cries of sorrow. Could it be a real world inside there?
“One flower one world, one leaf one Bodhi!”
Buddha chanted with his hands joined, “Amitabha, Sun Wukong, have you not realized the boundless slaughter you just committed, and aren’t you ready to repent?”
“Repent my ass!”
Sun Wukong was furious in his heart, “This Buddhist Kingdom in your palm was your doing, so the sin of slaughter is yours! Knowing it was a real small world, you still used it against my Chaos Fire. You never cared about their lives at all!”
“Amitabha! Demon Monkey, you invert right and wrong, but it does not cover the slaughter you committed. Karma and the cycle of Heavenly Dao will ensure that you pay a corresponding price for your actions today! I urge you to lay down the butcher’s knife and convert to Buddhism immediately. With the mercy of Buddha, you shall have a chance to mitigate your sins!”
A flicker of anger passed through Buddha’s eyes but was forcibly suppressed, followed by a cold snort.
The saying “One flower one world, one leaf one Bodhi” is not just a saying. For powerhouses at the Saint Realm of the Heavenly Dao, creating a small world is not particularly difficult, especially those of lower ranks which only consume a bit of domain power. The Buddhist Kingdom in Buddha’s palm is considered a higher-level small world, operated using the Origin Power of Buddha’s domain.
Buddha had only created a handful of such worlds, and although it cost him some Origin Power of his domain, the benefits were significantly large. The beings born within these small worlds almost entirely believed in Buddhism, providing Buddha with a vast amount of the power of faith.
