Not only did they feel a gravitational force pulling them down, but even the circulation of their Buddha powers also came to a halt.
Feng Yunsheng wasn’t affected by it at all. Rather, she changed her defensive stance, and her horrifying extermination saber-light started spreading towards her surroundings!
Her opponents were filled with a sense of helplessness and could only back away from it.
Even if they weren’t affected by the Later Earth Text, they were still caught off guard by Feng Yunsheng’s sudden attacks. Now that they were affected by the Later Earth Text, things became more dangerous. With a slight mistake, they might even end up perishing on the spot.
Upon seeing this, Li Xingba and Daoist Crimson Mist let out a sigh of relief. Without thinking about anything else, they both attacked Traveling Monk Hui An.
Gao Han lowered his head and looked towards the illusory ground formed by the rays of brilliance. He let out a bitter smile, “Are you that cautious?”
Ling Qing looked towards him and remained silent. Then, she continued attacking Traveling Monk Hui An.
The group of Buddhist Bhantes dared not take the offense to attack anymore. Instead, they got closer to Traveling Monk Hui An and fended off their enemies with him.
Initially, they had the advantage in numbers. Even if they were to fight against two sides, they wouldn’t suffer from any losses.
However, after being enveloped by Yan Zhaoge’s Later Earth Text, the situation became disadvantageous to them.
“Retreat. Let’s retreat from this place first and make a comeback later.” Traveling Monk Hui An was decisive enough. Without forcefully holding on, he immediately kept the Three Brilliances Sacred Water and left along with other Buddhist Bhantes.
Upon seeing this, Yan Zhaoge smiled and strode forward as well.
Traveling Monk Hui An and the others felt a chill down their spine.
With the Later Heaven Text, the formation displayed by Yan Zhaoge was able to move on its own. It wasn’t stationary at all.
Being affected by the Later Earth Text, even if they could sprouting lotuses with each step, their speed wouldn’t experience an increase at all. They were trapped by Yan Zhaoge, unable to jump out of it.
The group of Buddhist Bhantes took a deep breath.
“Without breaking through this formation, we won’t be able to escape,” said a Buddhist Bhante.
He sat upon a golden lotus, and a golden lamp was placed atop his head. There was a glazed green lamp on his left hand, while his right hand held an Udumbara Flower.
“You’re right, Udumbara Bodhisattva.” Traveling Monk Hui An and other Buddhist experts nodded, and all of them started rushing towards Yan Zhaoge.
Feng Yunsheng frowned. She stepped forward and lifted the jet-black saber within her hands. Holding her saber with both her hands, she started slashing downwards.
“Namo Amitabha.” Traveling Monk Hui An, Udumbara Bodhisattva, and other Buddhist Bhantes started chanting the sutra, and all of them took out their Buddhist treasures.
Curved Twinblades of Wu, Glazed Lamp, vajra, alms bowl…
Under the support of their Buddha powers, the Buddhist treasures quickly transformed into a Buddha formation glittering with boundless radiance.
Feng Yunsheng’s jet-black saber landed upon the Buddha formation, causing the boundless radiance to be diminished.
All the Buddhist treasures started falling off one after another.
However, using this small moment of opportunity, Udumbara Bodhisattva’s fingertip’s flower petal transformed into a stream of light and shot towards Yan Zhaoge!
The stream of light instantly traversed through space and reached the front of Yan Zhaoge, as if it had always existed there.
Yan Zhaoge’s mind went blank for a while when facing the flower petal.
Even without hearing the sonorous voice of the great dao, his mind seemed to have went blank.
It wasn’t accurate to describe it as being blank. Instead, he seemed to have seen through mortal affairs, seen through the illusion of everything and saw everything as empty and void. He seemed to have lost his ability to process thoughts.
From the perspective of outsides, a smile appeared on both Udumbara Bodhisattva and Yan Zhaoge’s face.
However, Yan Zhaoge’s smile quickly disappeared, and he regained his poise.
He kept his composure. He stopped his footsteps, and his eyes turned cold.
In an instant, within the Yin Yang Nine Splendour Seven Treasures Array Formation, the light pillars which carried the skies started to sink, as if they weren’t supporting the sky anymore and were about to be buried back into the ground.
The seven groups of nebulas rose upwards together as if they were returning from the mortal realm to the skies.
With this transformation, the skies and earth interchanged, while yin and yang circulated within the colossal formation.
A giant yin yang diagram appeared and enveloped the entire formation. It hung atop Yan Zhaoge’s head.
As the Udumbara Flower’s brilliance came in contact with the yin yang diagram, it continuously circulated within the yin and yang.

“Twisting Flowers with a Smile… Are you a successor of the central Blessed Lands of Saha’s Mahakasyapa lineage?” Yan Zhaoge held a scroll by his hand. His other hand formed a hand seal, and he lightly tapped the air.
The radiance circulated within the yin and yang vortex and finally returned to being a flower petal, being incapable of harming Yan Zhaoge any longer.
However, the yin yang diagram formed by the formation’s power dissipated as well.
Seeing how his attack did not succeed, the Udumbara Bodhisattva let out a sigh of pity.
Feng Yunsheng reached his front almost instantly, and the jet-black saber-light swept through the void, causing the translucent radiances released by the group of Buddhist Bhantes to turn dim.
Meanwhile, Yan Zhaoge formed a hand seal with his hands combined, and the scroll held between. The Yin Yang Nine Splendour Seven Treasures Array Formation suddenly operated. As the spirit patterns transformed, the light pillars which held the skies and the brilliant nebulas started rising and descending.
The pressure pulling on Traveling Monk Hui An and the others became heavier as well.
The group of Buddhist Bhantes struggled to support themselves, while Gao Han, Ling Qing, Daoist Crimson Mist, and Li Xingba started their endless waves of attacks.
Although the few Great Demons were wary of Gao Han and the others, their main target was still the group of Western Pure Lands Buddhist Bhantes.
The two sides fought till the universe was overturned as the moon and sun lost its brilliance.
Only by being by the void’s outskirts, experts with their cultivation could combat against others without holding back at all.
Otherwise, if upper worlds like the World beyond Worlds, the Sky beyond Skies, or the Roving Jade Heavens were the battlefield for experts of such caliber, those upper worlds would undoubtedly be destroyed very quickly. Of course, if these experts held back, things would turn out differently.
Equipped with the Three Brilliances Sacred Water, Traveling Monk Hui An had been the main target of everyone else.
The second son of the Li family was truly a capable person. After blocking Gao Han’s attack once more with the Curved Twinblades of Wu, he lifted his Reckless Iron Rod and knocked away Li Xingba’s square-edged golden swordbreaker.
On the other side, other Buddhist Bhantes helped him fend off the others. However, Li Xingba had been looking for this opportunity for a very long time.
With one hand distracting Traveling Monk Hui An with his square-edged golden swordbreaker, he clenched his other hand and punched it out with lightning speed.
The seemingly soft bare-handed attack traveled with lightning speed and hit Traveling Monk Hui An’s right chest.
Traveling Monk Hui An’s
body trembled a little. Immediately, he felt a continuous wave of horrifying vibrational force, which was gradually growing more robust. He felt as if his body was going to be torn apart.
“Namo Amitabha!” Traveling Monk Hui An chanted and immediately retraced his body.
With his “retraction,” the entire surrounding void seemed to have turned into dust and disappeared along with him from the world.
The Four Truths of Buddhism – the truth of suffering, the truth of the cause of suffering, the truth of the end of suffering, and the truth of the path that leads to the end of suffering.
The truths contained within were the causes of sufferings within the Three Realms. It gathered the eighty-eight temptations of sight, eighty-one temptations of disturbing thoughts, and classified them as karma, which attributes were based on all sorts of deeds committed. As such, painful retribution would bring about the truth of the cause of Three Sufferings, Eight Sufferings, and the Immeasurable Sufferings.
By displaying it, all sorts of painful retributions would be retracted and concealed.
Using the Truths as its subtle core principles, Traveling Monk Hui An displayed two supreme martial arts of the Thirty-seven Bodhipakkhiya Dhamma at the same time.
The Five Strengths Seal’s second seal, the Energy Seal. It implied the non-existence of a self-identity view. By withstanding pain and clearing the body off one’s slothfulness, it allows the heart to be cleared of ignorance. Without being submerged within slothfulness, one would break through the slothfulness of their own heart.
The Seven Factors of Awakening Seal’s fourth seal – the Joy Seal. It clears away the five delusions and the five factors of clumsiness. Through achieving revelation, one would be capable of breaking through the dark troubles using wisdom.
With the two arts combined into one, it fused with the subtle intents within both of them. With this, Traveling Monk Hui An forcefully withstood Li Xingba’s punch.
The majestic power trembled as well as if it was being gathered, withstood, and broken through. It seemed not to affect Traveling Monk Hui An at all.
He didn’t stop his movements at all. Instead, using the momentum created by Li Xingba’s punch, he quickly backed away.
However, before he managed to back away any further, Daoist Crimson Mist went ahead to block his path.
Before Traveling Monk Hui An could react, another Buddhist Bhante’s groan was heard.
Under the horrifying saber lights envelopment, a Buddhism bigwig, comparable to a Daoism Virtual Immortal, was almost slain in half by Feng Yunsheng!
The horrifying saber came downwards from his elbow, immediately cutting his Golden Body into half. He immediately lost the sense for both his left hand and leg.
Feng Yunsheng continued forward with her ferocious momentum. She didn’t care about her enemy’s condition at all. After kicking him away, she continued advancing.
Meanwhile, Gao Han exchanged blows with the Udumbara Bodhisattva once again. The Udumbara Bodhisattva could only utilize the Noble Truths’ subtle intents fused with his Buddhism martial arts to dispel the strong destructive force that invaded his body.
Gao Han’s left hand was pushing against Udumbara Bodhisattva’s right hand. The two remained in that position, with the two pulled towards each other and no one retreating at all.
On the other side, Gao Han raised his Holy Radiance Banner, causing numerous golden brilliant suns to rise. Then, the suns transformed into boundless brilliance and descended upon the Udumbara Bodhisattva.
Udumbara Bodhisattva’s left hand’s glazed green lamp started releasing circles of radiances that had their intelligence awakened. They continuously prevented the golden sun from descending and entered a deadlock situation with the Holy Radiance Banner.
Gao Han smiled. Two brilliances condensed atop his head, and a strong force of Immortal Essence came pouring down. Just like a flood being splashed upon a blaze, the Udumbara Bodhisattva was like a weak candle placed within the blowing winds, facing the risk of extinguishing anytime.
At the same time, another Buddhist Bhante’s limbs were caught by the two Great Rocs.
The two Great Rocs pulled his body, causing the Buddhist Bhante’s Golden Body to be forcefully torn apart!
A Buddhist Bhante, who could be referred to as a Bodhisattva, perished within the void just like that!
“Retreat!” Upon witnessing this scene, Traveling Monk Hui An immediately knew that blood had to be shed today.
He raised his hand, and the crimson red gourd filled with Three Brilliance Sacred Waters reappeared within his hand. Then, he threw it into the sky.
A wise man doesn’t fight against the impossible odds. Other than Li Xingba, others weren’t necessarily willing to fight him to death among the Daoism successors.
However, if the two were to continue their battle any longer, the Great Demons beside would have the opportunity of gaining benefits.
As expected, as the crimson red gourd flew into the sky, Ling Qing, Daoist Crimson Mist, and even the two Great Rocs turned around and rushed towards the gourd.
Although Feng Yunsheng was still blocking Yan Zhaoge from the enemies, she didn’t push in further anymore. Instead, she raised her head and looked towards the crimson red gourd.
Yan Zhaoge controlled the colossal formation. Instead of suppressing Traveling Monk Hui An and the others, the formation’s power gathered towards the crimson red gourd.
Under the pulling force of the formation’s power, the crimson red gourd suddenly changed its direction. Under the distortion of space, it turned around, avoided Ling Qing, Daoist Crimson Mist, and the others, and rushed straight towards Feng Yunsheng.
Initially, the two Great Rocs’ speed was the quickest. Now, they charged too far and were the furthest away from the gourd.
The group of Buddhist Bhantes felt much lighter. Traveling Monk Hui An knocked back Li Xingba once more, while others attacked Gao Han together, in hopes of helping Udumbara Bodhisattva out of his situation.
A mild flicker appeared within Gao Han’s gaze. He exerted his force with the Holy Radiance Banner and knocked away the Udumbara Bodhisattva.
Then, as he swung the long banner, the long banner seemed to have transformed into the very first ray of radiance after the heavens were opened, and the earth was split. It radiated the entire world and established creation.
As he forced other Buddhist Bhantes to retreat, he struck his palm onto Udumbara Bodhisattva’s chest. The Udumbara Bodhisattva wasn’t able to utilize the Noble Truths’ subtle profundities, and blood leaked out from this Buddhist Bhante.
Then, he rewound his long banner and successfully snatched the glazed green lamp from Udumbara Bodhisattva’s hands.
Udumbara Bodhisattva widened his eyes in anger. He let out a loud yell, and numerous green flares flew out from the glazed green lamp, which shot towards Gao Han’s face.
Gao Han exhaled a long breath, which transformed into a stormy wind, blowing away the green flares.
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1390 - Doomsday Saber, Encompassing Abyssal Absolute Annihilation!
The two Great Rocs fought for the Three Brilliances Sacred Water against Yan Zhaoge.
The group of Buddhist Bhantes joined the battle against Gao Han and Li Xingba, while the other three Great Demons attacked Traveling Monk Hui An.
After rescuing Udumbara Bodhisattva, Traveling Monk Hui An yelled softly, and he unsheathed his Curved Twinblades of Wu once again. The twinblades danced around the void, forming a sea of sword-lights, which blocked the Great Demons from advancing.
Other Buddhist Bhantes made their move and blocked Li Xingba as well.
Then, the group of monks utilized their supreme martial arts and quickly retreated from this area.
On the other side, under the influence of Yan Zhaoge’s formation, the crimson gourd filled with Three Brilliances Sacred Water flew towards him.
Naturally, others weren’t willing to let matters end just like that. Both Ling Qing,
Daoist Chi Lan, and even the two Great Rocs were rushing towards him.
Yan Zhaoge remained in the same spot. He sat in a lotus position and kept the scroll within his palms.
Meanwhile, the devilish blue-black flames within Feng Yunsheng’s eyes turned even darker and sinister.
She held her saber in one hand, while a small black jade bottle appeared in her other empty hand.
Feng Yunsheng widened her arms horizontally. Horrifying black flames and devilish auras spewed out from her head, extended towards her shoulders, her arms, and finally her long saber and the black jade bottle.
The devilish flames continually rose. Although they originated from the same Dim Glorious Saber Qi, the power contained within wasn’t as simple as eclipse’s power anymore.
The ferociousness and maliciousness contained within grew profound even further. It implied loneliness and annihilation as if everything had reached their eternal death, and everything had ended.
The fiery-smoky black flames continuously rose, slowly forming an illusory silhouette above Feng Yunsheng.
The silhouette resembled an ominous figure, yet it also seemed empty, an existence of deathly stillness.
Everything, no matter if it had a shape or not, no matter if they were abstract or not, no matter if they have a life or not. The instant they came in contact with it, they would welcome the end of everything and cease to exist any longer.
Time, space, matter, living beings, spirit, and even the various laws existing within the world. None of them was an exception.
It resembled the most horrifying abyss, yet it seemed like the final resting place of every existence.
It was indescribable, just like chaos itself. A queer feeling of desperation, until everyone’s heart, was left with numbness.
Doomsday Saber, Encompassing Abyssal Absolute Annihilation!
Radiance radiated from Feng Yunsheng’s head.
First, a ray appeared…
Then, a second!
Duo Flowers Converged Crown!
Her aura finally arose to its maximum.
“Don’t blame me,” said Feng Yunsheng softly. Within the sky, the phenomena of the entire world ending were retracted back into her body.
