The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  Is this still the Buddhism that they knew?

  All the Little Shamis were very young, but they were mostly born on Mountain Tenya. Almost every one of them would pray wholeheartedly every day, hoping to be one of the Buddhas in the future. Then, they could salvage the common people and deliver them from agonies.

  Nevertheless, they were very disappointed when they witnessed the scene in the sky.

  Greatly disappointed at the state of Buddhism now.

  The Little Shamis did not run. Instead, they sat on the long stairs one by one, holding up one hand vertically and straightening their little torsos. They did not chant any mantra, and simply stared at Baili Jia Jue, who was walking toward them, with no terror in their bright eyes.

  Their thought was simple, they simply wanted to protect Mountain Tenya because that was the only way for Sakyamuni Buddha to return.

  The Son of King of Hell laughed hysterically and mockingly said, "These Little Monks are quite decent, Sakyamuni chose his disciples well.".

  Baili Jia Jue ignored them, but he did not harm those Little Shamis. Whizzing through them like an amorphous shadow, he held out his long and slender arm to block the Buddha Gate that stood between heaven and earth.

  Bang!

  Following the noise, the supposedly invincible Buddha Gate was shattered instantly!

  Amidst the floating ashes, Baili Jia Jue told the Little Shamis behind him, "I will not ruin the place she lived back then."

  Baili Jia Jue came solely for revenge, and he did not intend to destroy Mountain Tenya.

  The Little Shamis exchanged glances with each other in surprise. One Little Monk was rubbing his reddened eyes as he asked, "Lord Phoenix is still alive, isn't it?"

  "Don't know." The Little Shamis knew that the Little Monk used to follow around Phoenix. By right the Little Monk should have become Buddha already, but he remained at the place where Phoenix used to stay and did not go to the Hall of Great Strength even though so many years had passed.

  Little Monk looked up, his eyes were red from whimpering, "She must still be alive."

  It was an amusing scene to see the Little Shamis carrying people, donned in their kasayas with six dots on their heads.

  Nonetheless, they carried their friend in their arms and said childishly, "Since the Emperor is here, I think Lord Phoenix will come as well."

  "Uhm, uhm..." The Little Shamis nodded in agreement, and said Amithabha again. Then, someone added, "But, what will the Emperor do next…?"

  Baili Jia Jue's intention was straightforward and simple. After he crushed the Buddha Gate, he grabbed one Honored Buddha in his hand before anyone could react. Black feathers flittered from his body and scattered around him, paving a path of heathers. As he was marching out, Sanskrit hymns echoed around Hall of Great Strength. Unlike the sound of Buddhist sutras, it was the unique singing voices of demons.

  The cacophony rang through the Six Paths and disrupted all peaceful idleness.

  The Honored Sir, who just attained his Buddha's body, was in isolation now. Thus, he was oblivious to what was happening outside.

  He merely did some calculations with his fingers and pondered to himself. Today is the day where Golden Lotus will take away Phoenix's Dharma.

  After this day, Golden Lotus will become Phoenix, and she will regain the authority of Buddhism again!

  Heh, Sakyamuni Buddha, you've waited for 10,000 years to achieve oneness.

  10,000 years is too long, long enough for him to achieve a lot.

  As Honored Sir was deep in his thoughts, faint noises echoed into his ear.

  The Sanskrit of Demon?

  How did this sinful voice from the Lower Three Paths appear in our honorable Buddhism?

  Chapter 860 - Wei Wei Had Arrived

  The Honored Sir opened his eyes in disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

  However, the color in his cheeks faded away instantly when he saw the person standing in the middle of the Hall of Great Strength!

  He sprung up abruptly from the Golden Lotus!

  His eyes were trembling vigorously, obviously stricken with guilt and horror.

  He knew that as an Honored Buddha, he should not have shown such an expression.

  Even so, he could not control his emotions.

  Throughout all these years, the man before him was the only person in Six Paths, who had wounded him before.

  The experience of having his Buddha's body taken away was unimaginably painful, and he had to spend almost 1,000 years to recover his strength. He certainly did not want to experience it again.

  I can only gain the upper hand by striking first!

  In a swift movement, the Honored Sir narrowed his eyes dangerously and tossed the prayer beads on his wrist up in the air!

  The Light of Buddha cl.u.s.tered together, creating a humongous Golden Lotus that was as tall as a human, which instantly crashed toward Baili Jia Jue!

  Bang!

  His hand pierced through the shower of Light of Buddha and aimed directly for the inner organ of the lotus.

  His handsome face was cut, leaving a scar dripping red in blood. However, it made him look even more devilish and nefarious.

  The Honored Sir was completely unperturbed by the fact that he would be condemned morally if he struck the first blow. He glanced at the group of Buddhas, signaling them to recite the incantation with him.

  He loudly mumbled the incantation, as everyone's eyes fixed on Baili Jia Jue.

  Even though he's an Emperor born from the chaos, he can never escape from the 'Million Buddhas Mantra'!

  This is the Hall of Great Strength, the place that can suppress the origin of all evils.

  As long as all the Buddhas chant together, we could weaken the King of Hell's Son into submission, even though we couldn't harm the man!

  The Honored Sir's eyes broiled with malign and he no longer had the expression that a Buddha supposed to have. Upon closer inspection, every inch of his expression seemed even more monstrous than a demon.

  As a result, all the Buddhas held their palms together, and endlessly recited the Buddhist incantation.

  The Son of King of Hell covered up his ears with his hands, as he could not withstand the Sanskrit Hymns echoing in the great hall. He looked miserable, as though he was having a mortifying nightmare.

  It was rumored that the 'Million Buddhas Mantra' was the least used incantation in Buddhism.

  It was contradictory to the Buddhist principle of salvaging all living creatures and leading people toward kindness.

  Meanwhile, the quintessence of kindness was not blindly being compassionate, or giving in and tolerating, but to refrain from taking the initiative to harm the others and following blindly.

  True kindness, would never request anyone to do anything against their wishes.

  If speaking was dangerous, one should remain speechless.

  If one realized he was incapable of shining, then he did not have to shed light on others.

  However, never stand up for the darkness simply because one had gotten used to it.

  'Million Buddhas Mantra' was an incantation created by the collection of tattle and prattle from the human world.

  It was a power that could extinguish the will of people.

  The Son of the King of Hell supported his forehead with one hand, while his fangs were about to stick out from his mouth.

  If he was immobilized, Baili Jia Jue could only remove their Buddha's bodies and could not crush their souls, no matter how strong he was.

  The Honored Sir had this scheme all along. Ever since he saw the King of Hell's Son following behind Baili Jia Jue, he figured out that he must break up the duo.

  The Buddhist chanting became louder!

  The Son of the King of Hell's small body began shivering, while his ruby-like eyes were scarlet and blood-red.

  All the Buddhas were terrified when they saw it, but they dared not stop as the Emperor would break their necks instantly if they did.

  All the Buddhas held their han
ds upright and kept reciting the Buddhist incantation.

  Someone ruthlessly grabbed him by the collar!

  The pair of arms were extremely strong and stained with blood.

  The speed of his sudden movement was shockingly fast.

  Panicking, the Honored Sir looked at the handsome face that was wickedly cold, and broke into a peal of sudden laughter, saying, "Without the Son of the King of Hell's Soul Reaping Ax, I can regain my ranking of Buddhism even if you kill me 100 times! Just like before, when you fell from heaven and became a demon, while I continued to stay in Buddhism! A Buddha's soul can never be destroyed by you people from the Three Lower Word!"

  "What if I join in?" A crystal-clear voice rang from the void behind them, as if it could traverse through layers of peaceful clouds.

  All the Buddhas looked over and saw a silhouette against the light, walking in from outside the hall with the robes floating in the wind.

  They could not see her face clearly. Otherwise, they would definitely not stay so calm and collected.

  Her cloak was glistening like fire, as she wielded a Dharma Bone Scythe in her hand. Her eyes were incredibly enchanting, pristine like the lakes on Mountain Tenya, and they were gleaming with a deadly aura.

  She entered from the light, just like how she used to enter the Hall of Great Strength numerous times in the past. As domineering aura flowed from her entire body, she seemed to disregard everyone except for Sakyamuni.

  In spite of that, they could not get rid of the vague feeling.

  Baili Jia Jue titled his head to look at her, and his eyes instantly became gentle. He spoke in a low and deep tone, almost like coaxing a child, "Why didn't you sleep longer? I can go back and be with you after I'm done. I'm covered in blood now but I can't clean up yet, stay away first."

  His tone was too natural, as if he was simply stating a fact.

  The Son of the King of Hell put his hand on his stomach as he wondered to himself. This Great Demon King still wants to maintain his image in Phoenix's heart! Just cut it out!

  The King of Hell's Son was aware that the Great Demon King did not want Phoenix to know that he came to Buddhism. He reckoned that he planned to completely annihilate all the Buddhas.

  Unfortunately, Phoenix was too clever. Perhaps, she knew that they went to the Trayastrimsa Heaven when she woke up and found them missing.

  This time, Helian Wei Wei did not obey Baili Jia Jue's instructions to stand far away. She simply walked out from the light, and gave a subtle smile, saying, "It's so boring to wait, so I came up here. I wanted to sleep longer and wait for you, but after some thinking about it, I want to watch from the side when you're taking revenge for me, so I won't miss anything."

  When she finished speaking, Helian Wei Wei's face became visible in the glimmering lights.

  In the Hall of Great Strength on Mountain Tenya, all the Buddhas had stopped chanting to look at the person before them, with extreme surprise.

  It really is Phoenix!

  The Honored Sir could not believe his eyes. Looking at the person who should not appear at Buddhism, his fingers quivered as he bellowed, "You, how come! Your Dharma, your...

  "Does Honored Sir really think that Phoenix is so weak that I can't even beat a small Golden Lotus working under you?" Helian Wei Wei glared at the elderly in a kassaya, mocking him with her eyes. She then said knowingly to him, "You can't even compare with Sakyamuni at this, yet you're thinking of replacing him and reigning over Buddhism? Are you even qualified for it?"

  The Honored Sir was utterly fl.u.s.tered when Helian Wei Wei blurted out his deepest secret. He did not believe that someone could win against destiny in this world. It's impossible!

  "No, you can't possibly get your Dharma again! It's impossible for Golden Lotus to fail, the Sixth Sense of Buddha can perceive everything. It's your destiny to stay alone forever! Sakyamuni? Heh, he shouldn't have rectified your name back then, a creature born in hell like you is never worthy to be Buddha! I know that Phoenix has a lofty and unyielding character, and the True Buddha will achieve oneness by having you in Buddhism, but so what? Sakyamuni is so nosy he even wants to care about the three lower realms. What's wrong if I want to replace him?"

  The Honored Sir shouted loudly.

  All the Buddhas never expected that the Honored Sir had the intention to replace the True Buddha.

  No matter how the Honored Sir punished Phoenix, they thought it was because she had too much sin and blood on her hands. Such a person would have to accept her evil karma.

  Moreover, the Honored Sir had always disliked her because of her arrogance, which was why he tried to hold her down in every way possible.

  Little did they know, the actual reason behind it was to prevent the True Buddha from achieving oneness!

  All the Buddhas were wildly confused as their long-held belief had been broken down. Fl.u.s.tered and not knowing what to do next, they merely stared blankly at the Honored Sir, no longer with anticipation and obedience.

  Helian Wei Wei smiled, as she stared daggers at the person who greatly tormented her. Her eyes were extremely cold as she growled, "Before Buddhism was created back then, Sakyamuni experienced all the miseries in the human world, vowed solemnly to salvage all the living creatures in the world, and used his flesh to salvage the evil spirits in the Sea of Blood. What about you? What have you done? Didn't you believe in fate? Since heaven gave the position of True Buddha to Sakyamuni, you'll still be an evil-minded petty person even if you cultivated for a million more years."

  "Shut your..." The Honored Sir was about to reprimand her, when someone suddenly punched him right in his c.h.e.s.t. Then, a freezing cold instantly gripped his heart.

  Baili Jia Jue had always been astonishingly fast, especially at violence.

  A crispy crackling sound could be heard.

  The Honored Sir's rib was forcefully taken out by him!

  The golden Light of Buddha started to leak out of his body, bit by bit.

  Upon seeing this, Helian Wei Wei saved her words and moved swiftly. In a flash, she swung her Phoenix Bone at the Honored Sir's eye.

  The Honored Sir did not duck, as the Son of King of Hell could not lift his Soul Reaping Axe anymore. He had said that even if they were all killed, he could revive himself infinitely and take over Buddhism again. He would be the ruler of Buddhism, as long as Sakyamuni was absent. This was his destiny and nobody could ever change it!

  As though she could read the Honored Sir's thoughts, Helian Wei Wei smirked and suddenly stopped in front of him. Then, she whispered devilishly, while pausing between words, "I think there's something you're clueless of, the Phoenix Bone Scythe can cut Dharma fates and Buddha's souls!"

  Chapter 861 - His Highness’ Jealousy

  The Honored Sir's pupils shrank abruptly when he heard it, as though he was in utter disbelief. Just as he tried to open his mouth and struggle…

  His thorax was cleanly penetrated by the oncoming Phoenix Bone Scythe!

  Holding the knife in her hand, Helian Wei Wei simply looked at him emotionlessly.

  The Honored Sir's face gradually turned pale, but his expressions suddenly became agitated.

  The golden lights lingering around his body grew fainter, as though they were being s.u.c.k.e.d away from him.

  Phoenix howled roaringly above the Hall of Great Strength, it was the same sound it made when Sakyamuni's showered his Light of Buddha at Hell in the past.

  All the Buddhas stared with their eyes wide open. Some of them attained the ranking of Buddha late, so they never saw Phoenix in action.

  They had simply regarded the astounding power of Phoenix as a myth.

  However, after seeing her today, they realized that they had underestimated her lethality!

  She could manipulate the air currents with her palm, as Buddha spirits circled along the edge of her sharp scythe, creating a thunderous wave of energy that shook the Great Hall.

  Amidst the growling winds, the Honored Sir could not defend himself an
d was flung out a few meters away.

  This was the first time that the Honored Sir fell from his noble Golden Lotus Buddha's Throne in such a shameful way, being stabbed by Phoenix.

  With the scythe in her hand, Helian Wei Wei slowly walked toward him. Her cloak was blazing like fire, as if it could burn everything in this world into ashes. She looked down at the elderly, whose Light of Buddha had started to dim, and smirked as she jeered, "Didn't you used to hate my Evil Face? This is my Evil Face, my bones. The existence of Phoenix is to cleanse Buddhism. Since you found out about my destinies and knew about my Evil Face's purpose, you became afraid. You're scared that I will pull you down from your ranking of Buddhism one day, so you figure out a plan to utilize my destiny and allow Golden Lotus to take away my Dharma fate."

  She continued, "You didn't want me to stay in Buddhism, and hoped that I would disappear completely. It doesn't matter even if everything is exposed, because you have your backup plans, no matter what happens. Unfortunately, you only knew about this. You didn't know that my Evil Face can deprive you of your ranking of Buddhism, and also sever your Buddha Soul. Of course, it's natural that you didn't know, since the only one who knows about it in this world is Sakyamuni. When he brought me up to Buddhism, I've promised him that I'll never kill a Buddha, unless Buddhism has strayed from its path. However, now... "

  Helian Wei Wei lowered her eyes and coldly glared at the Honored Sir underneath her foot. When she saw that he tried to escape using the Art of Soul Evasion, she gave him another powerful stab!

  After his last Light of Buddha was slashed, the Honored Sir helplessly watched his Buddha Soul breaking into fragments with trembling lips.

  He never knew that Phoenix's Evil Face was her bones.

  They were rebellious bones that were born in Hell and antithetical to Buddhism.

  He had planned meticulously and predicted his fates, but he never knew that he would fail.

  He was the Honored Sir, the one who kept Sakyamuni away from Buddhism's ranking for hundreds and thousands of years.
