Chapter 818 Post-War Settlement
Chapter 818 Post-War Settlement
This palm shattered the blood claw, but before it could stop, it swept across the dark cloud of insects and created a huge gap in it.
All the demon insects in the path of the giant thunder palm were turned into ashes in an instant.
This palm also killed tens of millions of demon insects, with similar results to that of Tathagata's palm.
With one slap, the eyes of the heavenly army generals and the Bodhisattva who was fighting with the witch below all changed completely when they looked at Wen Rui.
Taoist Mosquito and Buddha Tathagata are both top bosses. One is a Buddha, the other is a demon. They use their magical powers to fight against each other from a distance. A group of ants can only look up at them tremblingly.
However, Wen Rui was able to compete with the two of them and display the same level of supreme magical powers, which indirectly proved that he was now a supreme power comparable to the Buddha and the demons.
Moreover, from the perspective of victory and defeat, the Blood Claw defeated the Buddha's Palm, but was then shattered by Wen Rui's Thunder Palm.
Doesn’t this mean that among the three, Wen Rui seems to be the strongest one?
This is exactly the case when one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence. The generals in Heaven understand that Wen Rui is not the good-for-nothing he was five hundred years ago. His cultivation level has improved rapidly over the years. They also know that he has extraordinary abilities and his strength is already above that of a Golden Immortal.
But even after doing all this psychological preparation and accepting the fact that he is a supreme being on the same level as the Buddha, it is still very difficult for him to adapt.
Whereas before they had only respected him, now the gods would have to try to start worshipping him.
As opponents, the three Bodhisattvas were disheartened when they saw this scene. Even the Buddha could not conquer the devil, but Wen Rui could. If Lingshan encountered trouble in the future, would they have to ask the God of Creation for help?
The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of Western religions have always believed that Tathagata Buddha has boundless power and is omnipotent. Although the Heavenly Court nominally governs the three realms, in terms of strength and status, it has long lost the qualifications to be on an equal footing with Western religions.
Now seeing this scene, the inherent stereotype is completely overturned. We can no longer be arrogant towards the Heavenly Court, and we can no longer be polite on the surface but actually despise it.
This will have an immeasurable and far-reaching impact on future plans to promote Buddhism and on measures to resolve a new round of catastrophes.
Wen Rui didn't know how others viewed him. He just breathed a sigh of relief secretly and stared at the Demon Mosquito camp guiltily. Only after he was sure that there was no second blood claw condensed did he breathe a sigh of relief quietly.
It was indeed a bit of luck that he was able to shatter the blood claw with one palm, but it did not mean that Wen Rui was more powerful than the Buddha and the Mosquito Taoist.
The victory was due not only to the fact that most of the magic energy of Blood Claw had been consumed by Tathagata, but also to a large extent the thunder support sent by his cheap father Wen Zhong.
As for Wen Rui's true Taoist practice, it was of no use at all. His current identity was awkward. In name, he was the Lord of Creation and enjoyed the privilege of wielding the authority of Heaven. But in reality, because he replaced his divine body of merit before being canonized, he transformed himself into a cyber-biochemical demon. Therefore, he could not use the authority he had obtained.
Most of the achievements of the Heavenly Lord, who was deified for his merits, lie in the use of the authority of Heaven. Wen Rui has the title but not the real power, and he has to pretend to be the Heavenly Lord with great power to keep up appearances.
Otherwise, if people see through his true identity and know that he is a mere demon who is the supreme being in heaven, second only to the gods and above all gods, how can this be justified?
If the truth comes out and the scandal is exposed, his role as Heavenly Lord will be over and he can switch to being a Demon Lord.
The silver giant palm was formed with the help of external force, and the divine purple thunder on the giant palm was also with the help of external force. However, after Wen Rui's precise design, the effectiveness of the thunder was maximized, which had an unexpected effect. For example, the restraint of the mana giant palm on the blood demon's magical power was even stronger.
The demon blood of the demon mosquito that was smashed to pieces by Tathagata's giant palm will not disappear immediately, but will be recycled by Mosquito Taoist and transformed into the Sky-tearing Blood Claws.
However, the demon mosquito that was killed by Wen Rui's electric palm had its body and blood burned into charcoal by the extremely yang lightning, and its blood was completely evaporated, making it impossible to use it anymore.
The three Bodhisattvas' original plan to summon Tathagata to help reverse the defeat failed. They no longer had the means to stop the evil mosquitoes from plundering the believers. More and more believers were plundered by the evil mosquitoes, and the monastery was empty.
Compared with the battle at the Bunolinda Temple, this battle was much stronger. Although one million believers were lost, nearly one billion magic mosquitoes were exchanged. Unlike the battle at the Bunolinda Temple, 300,000 believers were lost in vain, and the final casualties were all caused by Wen Rui's silver giant Fa Tian Xiang Di.
But even so, the three Bodhisattvas were extremely frustrated and didn't know how to guard other Buddhist holy places next time.
There are more than a dozen Western Christian refuges of the same size as the holy land of Sravasti in Xiniu Hezhou. The largest of them is the holy land of the Maurya Dynasty, with nearly 10 million believers temporarily gathered in the Maurya City.
When Tathagata personally took action, he was blocked by the Mosquito Taoist's blood-related magical powers. Even the most warlike Bodhisattva of the Western Religion went to the battlefield in person, but could only fight the witch to a draw.
Western religions have already settled for the second best, no longer seeking to save the lives of their believers, but only hoping that they will be liberated after death and not fall into the evil path. Now it seems that this cannot be achieved smoothly.
All the believers were lost, and after falling into reincarnation, they turned to demons and evil. It became questionable whether Western religion could continue to exist, let alone rise or revive.
Seeing that there were not many believers left in the garden, the three Bodhisattvas looked at each other and shook their heads gently.
Bodhisattva Lingji recalled the Flying Dragon Staff, held the staff upside down, and together with Bodhisattva Mahakala and Bodhisattva Vajrapani, displayed their divine feet ability, walking in the air, and within a few steps their figures were already a hundred miles away.
The Mantis Witch tried to flash and chase, but her spatial travel distance was limited. Even after multiple short-distance teleportations, she was still unable to catch up with the Bodhisattva, who had mastered the power of clairvoyance to the extreme.
The strategic goal of the Blood Sea Demon Clan was successfully achieved. Although there was still a group of Heavenly Court troops on the battlefield, they were still releasing long-range magical powers to attack the Zerg swarm. The witches who were the lords of the Zerg swarm did not care and immediately issued a pheromone order to retreat.
The demon insects gathered together to form a dark cloud swarm and evacuated the battlefield under the firepower of Heaven. Even though the demon insects in the rear were constantly being killed by the Heavenly soldiers who were chasing them, not a single demon insect turned around to fight back.
The Heavenly Army chased and killed for a while, and won countless free military exploits. Wen Rui then waved his hand and ordered the entire army to withdraw, and led the troops back to the court in triumph.
The three witches finally breathed a sigh of relief when the army of demon insects got rid of the pursuing heavenly army. They counted the spoils and calculated that they had captured more than 700,000 fresh human flesh and blood bags this time.
Ever since invading the mortal world, the Blood Sea Demons thought they could plunder mortal creatures at will to strengthen themselves, but it was not until now that they have truly reaped the benefits.
In order to maintain the consumption of war, the sea level of the old nest, the Netherworld Blood Sea, dropped by dozens of meters. It was unknown how much blood and water was transported to the mortal world through artificial canals and pump worms, and was consumed in the successive battles.
If no more mortal creatures can be caught to replenish the blood, the sea of blood will eventually dry up.
