A mighty voice resounded: "Fa Jie!"

A monk with a bare upper body, clutching a great saber, rose to his feet and turned to walk outside.

From the depths of obscurity, several wills traversed the endless temporal expanse to descend upon the Great Leiyin Temple, much like several emperors majestically seated on thrones, exerting their dominion over a part of Heaven and Earth. With the arrival of these wills, the Great Leiyin Temple's heavens resounded with the roar of the Tao, as the rhythm of the Tao manifested various miracles.

Within the Great Leiyin Temple, venerable Ancient Buddhas also manifested their might. Guanyin, Puxian, and Wenshu, the three great Bodhisattvas, the Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy, the Randeng Past Buddha, Ma Yuan Venerate King Buddha, and the Buddha Mother Mosquito Bodhisattva, and others, all radiated the light of the Tao. For a time, the sounds of the Tao were unceasing within the temple, with Laws of the Tao clashing against one another, congealing into chains of Heaven and Earth Laws, emerging within the Great Leiyin Temple.

The entire Great Leiyin Temple seemed to have plunged into Chaos, teeming with boundless killing intent. In a trance, it seemed as though one could see the Five Elements in disarray, the heavens revolving, arrays of killing formations erecting, Yin and Yang cycling, and oceans surging to the sky.

The booming voice of the Buddha, The Buddha, echoed between Heaven and Earth: "Law Enforcement Team of the Buddha Sect, for what purpose have you come?"

The voice of Zhao Gongming emanated from the depths of the void: "Heavenly Court Envoy represents the dignity of the Heavenly Court, which must not be insulted!"

Fa Jie, who was walking outward, paused mid-step, cold sweat forming on his forehead as several currents of killing intent locked onto him. Should his foot fall, he would most certainly perish.

"Fa Jie, come back!"

Hastily retracting his foot, the locking killing intent dissolved, and Fa Jie breathed a sigh of relief, promptly responding, "Yes!" and turned back.

The Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy could not help but exclaim: "Buddha!"

Hum~ A Divine Light of Buddha blossomed within the Great Leiyin, revealing an elder Buddha within, his countenance as withered as dry wood.

All Buddhas within the hall placed their hands together and, with great reverence, bowed, saying: "Namo Randeng Past Buddha!"

Randeng Buddha gave a faint nod, closed his eyes and sat upright on the Lotus Platform, motionless as if he had entered Nirvana.

The Buddha of Tranquil Light and Joy and the other Bodhisattvas were unaware, but The Buddha and Randeng Buddha felt it—alongside the descent of the Law Enforcement Team, a pair of majestic eyes watched over the Spiritual Mountain from afar.

These eyes were far more fearsome than the Law Enforcement Team, exuding nobility and authority, revered across the Three Realms. Under their gaze, both The Buddha and Randeng Buddha felt insignificant, as if there was a thorn in their backs, a fishbone stuck in their throats.

A name flashed through both of their minds—Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian. Dispersing the Law Enforcement Team was not difficult, but doing so would mean confronting Heavenly Emperor Hao Tian directly. With no Saint emerging, who else could withstand the imperial majesty?

Following this, Shen Gongbao initiated a scolding battle at the Spiritual Mountain with Aynava, shocking the Three Realms. He berated Aynava to the point of speechlessness, set numerous Arhats ablaze with the fire of karma, leading to the collapse of their Dao hearts, and provoked many Bodhisattvas into wielding Divine Artifacts in combat, only to be halted by the Buddha.

As if a calamitous star had descended upon the Spiritual Mountain, Shen Gongbao's words threw everything into chaos, nearly shattering the Dao hearts of countless Arhats.

Within the Great Leiyin Temple, The Buddha also found himself at the receiving end of Shen Gongbao's insults, his face darkening. He turned to the Randeng Buddha and said, "A Heavenly Angel has arrived from the East; I request that Randeng Buddha go to receive him."

Randeng Buddha slowly opened his eyes and calmly stated: "Alright." His figure then faded and disappeared.

...

"Diplomacy God, please be merciful with your words~" A vast voice suddenly echoed between Heaven and Earth, pressing down like the heavens themselves, flooding the world with the praise of Brahma Sound. A shower of golden flowers formed from Spiritual Energy descended from the heavens.

Before the live broadcast, all beings' hearts were filled with a moment of enlightenment—a venerable and ancient Buddha had descended.

An auspicious cloud gathered between Heaven and Earth. Upon it sat a resplendent Buddha, his six-foot golden body imposingly dominating Heaven and Earth.

Countless Arhats and Bodhisattvas placed their hands together in reverence, bowing deeply and saying: "Namo Randeng Buddha!"

Buddhist Disciples and believers watching the live video were equally moved, exclaiming in worship: "Namo Randeng Buddha!"

Below a large tree on the Journey to the West, Tang Sanzang also quickly leaped up, bowing fervently and excitedly: "Namo Randeng Buddha!"

Randeng Buddha stands out from other Buddhas. He is a true Buddha of Buddhism, boundless in Buddhist Law, who liberates all living beings. His position in Buddhism is second only to The Buddha.

Sun Wukong, curious, asked on the side: "Bajie, who is this Randeng Buddha?"

Zhu Bajie said earnestly, "Brother, Randeng Anicent Buddha was the Past Buddha of Buddhism, and The Buddha is the one who succeeded his position."

"Oh~ Got it, got it, so he's just a retired Buddha. Between him and Emperor Gouchen, who is more formidable?"

Zhu Bajie shook his head repeatedly, "I don't know, I don't know, Old Pig has no idea!

But I've heard that Randeng Ancient Buddha is more or less on par with those great divine beings from the Law Enforcement Team."

Law Enforcement Celestial? Sun Wukong suddenly recalled the time he was suppressed, those figures outside the Heavenly Court who stopped The Buddha, truly domineering and unparalleled, Old Sun feels ashamed in comparison. Given that, this Randeng Buddha must be somewhat more formidable than Old Sun.

Outside the Spiritual Mountain, Shen Gongbao showed no fear, his expression calm as he advanced one step with a boom~ A roaring sound as multicolored Divine Light spurted beneath his feet, and dragons and phoenixes chorused behind him; even the Miracle he presented was truly extraordinary, not the least bit inferior.

Shen Gongbao stepped higher, standing at the same level as Randeng Ancient Buddha, his thunderous voice echoing between Heaven and Earth: "I do not take kindly to others looking down upon me!"

The corner of Randeng Ancient Buddha's mouth twitched slightly, and his thunderous voice resonated, "Shen Gongbao, you were once a Saint Disciple, so why do you speak such baseless words in the Holy Land of the Spiritual Mountain, thus losing stature for no reason."

"Haha~ Should I also address you as 'Teacher'?" Shen Gongbao burst into laughter, then suddenly reined it in and waved his sleeve, "Randeng, we are old acquaintances. Don't you know what kind of person I am? If it's according to my will, I won't back down even in the face of death! Against my will, not even a Saint can command me.

I, Shen Gongbao, have never cared about face nor Life and Death; I only follow the righteous cause in my heart."

Inside the live stream room, thump thump thump~ a string of rewards rang out like raindrops, and the comment section was full of cheers.

Shen Gong is right in what he says!

Haha~ I feel like I'm seeing the upright and unparalleled Shen Gong from the Divine Enthronement battle again.

You imbecilic foreign deity "god", is your so-called 'righteous cause' just spouting nonsense?

...

Randeng Buddha said calmly, "Does your so-called righteous cause within your heart dismiss the distinction between right and wrong?!

That is absurdity!"

Shen Gongbao stood before Randeng, his divine robe fluttering loudly, his long hair flowing; his deportment was proudly transcendent. Although his power was worlds apart from Randeng's, his momentum was not the slightest bit weaker.

Among the Three Realms Immortals watching the live stream, many were in a daze, finally seeing Shen Gongbao, the Saint Disciple who considered Life and Death as trivial.

Since Divine Enthronement, Shen Gongbao had played the role of 'all is good' within the Heavenly Court, greeting everyone with a smile each day; nearly all the Immortals had forgotten that he was once a disciple of the Primordial Saint, an esteemed elite of the Mysterious Sect's Second Generation, also a figure who stirred the winds and clouds in the Three Realms.

"Right and wrong? Your Buddhism slanders our Heavenly Court's Emperor Gouchen, and you still think you are justifiable?" Shen Gongbao sharply questioned Randeng.

A flash of displeasure crossed Randeng Buddha's eyes, how dare such an underling question me, he thought. Who gave you the audacity.

Hum~ A soundless Sanskrit chant resounded above the Spiritual Mountain, as formidable wills pressed down, the ancient Tao forming Law Chains, reflecting in Randeng's mind, figures as mighty as Demon Gods looming over the void.

A colossal figure of Chaos sat high upon a divine position, surrounded by thousands of worlds flickering uncertainly, constantly emerging and collapsing, like the Master of Ten Thousand Realms.

A female immortal sat cross-legged in the void, under her countless Killing Formations spread, as if she were the master of all arrays.

The figure surrounded by Five-Colored Divine Light, the Five Elements revolving like a light screen.

Yin Yang merged into a millstone, and a sharp figure stood atop it, brimming with pride.

Another figure was surrounded by a great flood and thousands of thunderbolts falling, like the master of destruction.

"Hmph~" The colossal Golden Buddha suppressed a groan, his huge body trembling slightly, and immediately lit green Netherworld Candle Flames on his body, thus dissipating the visions of the Demon God-like figures reflected in his sea of consciousness.
