The golden “Ji” characters of the Buddhist mantra vibrated, emanating a mysterious power. Golden light, imbued with sealing force, wove a celestial net, descending upon the black and white dragons.
Ning Changge watched with intrigue.
With a flick of his fingers, the black and white dragons roared like thunder, their life and death energies intertwining.
The two dragons were inseparable, coiling together like a twin-headed dragon. The Life and Death Dragon Qi was filled with profound mysteries, its energies cutting through the golden net like divine swords.
The twin-headed dragon clashed with the nine mantras, the sound echoing like thunder across the heavens.
Even Heaven-Man experts had to cover their ears with true energy to avoid injury.
Though far from the battlefield, everyone remained cautious. This battle was one of the most intense in the Nine Provinces’ history, a rare spectacle in centuries.
Blinding golden light filled the sky, mingling with black and white hues. The golden light was gradually consumed.
Bodhidharma’s chanting ceased abruptly.
His expression changed as he staggered back, looking up in shock.
High above, the dragons roared, breaking free from the golden light. The nine mantras shattered into countless fragments, scattering like dust.
The crowd gasped in disbelief.
They couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
It seemed that in this clash between the Little Immortal and Shaolin’s founder, the Little Immortal had gained the upper hand!
All eyes turned to the serene young Daoist, struggling to comprehend what they were witnessing.
“Isn’t this just an avatar of the Little Immortal?”
“Could Shaolin’s founder really be no match for him?”
“This is terrifying!”
The Daoist Realms were filled with joy and awe. Bodhidharma’s appearance had brought immense pressure; after all, he was said to be the reincarnation of Shakyamuni Buddha. But to their surprise, the Little Immortal had managed to suppress him!
The Buddhas wore expressions of disbelief and dismay.
“How is this possible? World Honored One…”
Their faith wavered slightly.
Ning Changge felt the astonished gazes upon him but remained indifferent. His eyes flickered with five-colored light as inspiration struck. Bodhidharma’s Buddhist mantra had touched something within him.
He needed to delve deeper into this insight.
Without wasting words, he gestured again, causing the Life and Death Dragon Qi to transform once more.
This time, the dragons reverted to their original forms—two primal energies of life and death, merging as they descended upon the Buddhas.
Bodhidharma’s expression grew more serious.
In this life, he stood at the pinnacle of the Nine Provinces, nearly matching his past life’s strength. Yet Ning Changge’s presence exerted immense pressure on him.
Even at his past life’s peak, he would have needed to approach this carefully.
Realizing that today’s events were beyond his control, Bodhidharma prepared himself for a life-and-death struggle.
With a mental shout, his body radiated solidified Buddha light. The once unassuming monk transformed into a supreme golden Buddha!
His Buddha Body shone brilliantly, surrounded by endless chanting and “Ji” characters. Compared to other Buddhas, he was worlds apart. The Buddhas watched in awe, their eyes filled with fervor.
Bodhidharma soared into the sky, golden light pouring from his palms.
“Great Sun Tathagata Palm!”
His voice boomed like a bell as a golden palm inscribed with “Ji” descended upon the life and death energies.
Ning Changge raised an eyebrow.
Bodhidharma struck repeatedly, each blow drawing upon violent forces of heaven and earth. With nine strikes, he finally halted the advancing energies.
The Buddhas were elated.
The martial artists watched in awe.
Even Land Immortals felt a bitter taste in their mouths.
For centuries, it was said that Land Immortals had limited lifespans but boundless power. Today, they witnessed just how terrifying that power could be!
In the eyes of Ning Changge and Bodhidharma, even they seemed like ants.
Bodhidharma ascended further, his golden Buddha Body outshining even the setting sun.
Ning Changge smiled faintly.
He remained calm, eager to observe more of Shakyamuni’s reincarnation’s techniques.
Since reaching mid-Foundation Establishment, his mana had surged. Though his avatar could only wield about seventy to eighty percent of his true strength, it was still formidable.
The Daoist Realms and Buddhas retreated further back as all eyes focused on the two figures in the sky.
Such a duel was eagerly anticipated by all.
Ning Changge gestured again, causing the Five Elements Spirit Swords to blaze with light. Five beams shot skyward as they slashed toward Bodhidharma with unparalleled sharpness. Their sword intent soared higher than before Ning Changge’s avatar had appeared—two or three times stronger!
Dugu Jian felt his body tremble as he watched these terrifying swords in awe.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Five streaks of rainbow light streaked across heaven and earth at incredible speed. Bodhidharma sat cross-legged in midair, eyes lowered as he chanted faster and faster—each word resonating with power:
Each mantra was as large as a mountain stone—each carrying immense force as they clashed against the Five Elements Spirit Swords.
The earth-shaking sound reverberated through heaven and earth as one mantra after another was cleaved in two by the Spirit Swords—disappearing into nothingness.
Golden light filled half the sky while sword qi scattered across fields below—causing swordsmen everywhere to tremble with excitement at such celestial swordsmanship!
Ning Changge manipulated his sword techniques—making them increasingly elusive and formless—darting through space unpredictably while integrating Five Elements Void Sword into every strike—a marvel beyond compare!
The Buddhist mantras could no longer withstand these lethal strikes from above!
Ning Changge’s eyes glowed with inspiration as he observed Bodhidharma’s mantras closely…
Buddhism had its mantras—and so did Daoism—with its Nine-Character Mantra: “Lin Bing Dou Zhe Jie Zhen Lie Zai Qian.” While studying Daoist scriptures previously—Ning Changge had gained some insights…
Now seeing how Bodhidharma connected true energy with heavenly forces through mantras—he felt inspired anew…
Deliberately slowing down his attacks—he maintained pressure on Bodhidharma without delivering an immediate defeat…
