Chapter 1060: Chapter 321: The Feeling of Impending Doom_2
At this point, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of Eastern Emperor Tai Yi.
The main thing is starting a war with the Heavenly Court; they are not afraid.
Whether it’s him or Emperor Jun, either pair has the confidence to suppress the Heavenly Court, even easily crush it.
The current strength of the Heavenly Court is still too weak, compared to theirs, the gap is immeasurable.
Back then, even The Three Pure Ones dared not easily wage war against Emperor Jun and his kind; they had to plan for a long time, contact numerous Ancient Gods, and personally intervene, only then were they able to drive them out.
Otherwise, a direct confrontation would result in mutual destruction.
In their own strength, they have considerable confidence.
Even if they conquer the Western Continent, the Heavenly Court is powerless.
"Good."
Emperor Jun nodded.
He felt that Eastern Emperor Tai Yi’s idea was particularly good.
Atop Mount Ling, Tathagata Buddha shuddered inwardly.
For an unknown reason, he felt a sense of impending disaster.
"What’s this? Why do I feel this way?"
Tathagata Buddha muttered.
He was calculating, and the conclusions he reached made him break out in a cold sweat.
Although unsure of what might happen, Tathagata Buddha profoundly trusted his intuition.
He was certain that something dreadful would certainly occur.
"What’s wrong?"
Jin Chan suddenly asked.
His strength had grown considerably, and he had long become a top-tier Great Heavenly Venerate, even among the top-tier Great Heavenly Venerates, he had carved a long path.
Seeing Tathagata Buddha suddenly break into a cold sweat, Jin Chan was a bit perplexed.
"I suddenly have a feeling of impending disaster."
Tathagata Buddha said.
Jin Chan was slightly taken aback, a gleam flashed in his eyes as he said, "That’s simple, Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor are planning to strike against you, otherwise, who could possibly defeat you with your current power."
"Them?"
Tathagata Buddha’s heart shook.
This feeling of impending disaster was indeed possible.
Other than Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and Emperor Jun, it wouldn’t be easy for others to create such a feeling in him.
Thinking of this, Tathagata Buddha’s heart sank slightly.
"Are they not afraid of The Three Pure Ones?"
Tathagata Buddha frowned.
Now the entire Buddhist Realm belonged to the Heavenly Court’s forces and was also related to The Three Pure Ones.
Although the Heavenly Court intends to target The Three Pure Ones, hoping to shake off their restraint.
Yet, their basic interests remain aligned.
Once Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and his kind wage war on the Heavenly Court, he didn’t believe The Three Pure Ones wouldn’t intervene.
"Afraid, why wouldn’t they be? But what’s our relationship with The Three Pure Ones?"
Jin Chan retorted.
Tathagata understood.
Their opponents indeed feared The Three Pure Ones, but there was no substantial relationship between them and The Three Pure Ones.
They’re merely subordinates of the Heavenly Court, and observing The Three Pure Ones’ recent behavior suggests that as long as Emperor Jun and his kind don’t threaten the very foundation of the Heavenly Court, The Three Pure Ones wouldn’t do anything against them.
Unless they go to war with the Heavenly Court, if Mount Ling were destroyed, The Three Pure Ones would likely not intervene.
The Buddhist Realm merely belongs to the Heavenly Court, not genuinely acknowledged by Daoist Sect powerhouses.
Indeed, many are wary of them, considering the Buddhist Realm will ultimately become a threat.
In reality, this is true; the powerhouses of the Buddhist Sect are quite ambitious.
Such as Tathagata, even aspiring to transcend the Great Heavenly Venerate and ultimately establish a Heavenly Court of his own.
If such a place were to be annihilated, The Three Pure Ones likely wouldn’t care.
Even if Great Emperor Ziwei was outraged, he couldn’t take action against Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and his kind.
After all, irrespective of which side, both Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and Emperor Jun’s strength remain superior to that of the Heavenly Court.
Thinking of this, Tathagata Buddha sighed quietly.
"Prepare."
Jin Chan said.
"Indeed, preparation is necessary; decisive actions are needed, otherwise, it would only be in vain to meet one’s end."
Tathagata Buddha said calmly.
Those around were somewhat bewildered, unable to grasp their meaning.
In truth, only the two of them knew what they meant.
Jin Chan and Tathagata both believed it was necessary to evacuate the West.
"But where to settle?"
Tathagata Buddha smiled bitterly.
"Discuss with Amitabha Buddha, and also with Bodhisattva Zhunti, I sense Bodhisattva Zhunti’s power is unfathomable, always felt he might have reached Supreme status."
Glancing at Jin Chan, Tathagata sighed, "Your intuition is quite keen."
Jin Chan was a bit surprised, exclaiming, "Really?"
Nodding slightly, Tathagata said, "He indeed has become Supreme, even before me."
Jin Chan’s mouth opened wide, striking speechless.
This master has certainly hidden deeply, haven’t they?
Long since becoming Supreme, yet held no other notion, persistently concealing themselves.
If only everyone in the Buddhist Realm were like Bodhisattva Zhunti, there wouldn’t be so many troublesome matters.
Perhaps sensing Jin Chan’s thoughts, Tathagata Buddha glanced at him, saying calmly, "You’re overthinking it; it’s not that he wants to keep a low profile, but upon becoming Supreme, he realizes the terror of the Daoist Sect, senses the terror of The Three Pure Ones; this, instead, has led to a more subdued demeanor, aware of the necessity of patience, have you seen anyone in the Buddhist Realm without ambition?"
Jin Chan: "..."
Why did he feel that Tathagata Buddha’s analysis made a lot of sense?
These bald donkeys, there really isn’t one good thing among them.
Thinking of this, Jin Chan almost slapped himself, realizing he had almost forgotten he too is now a bald donkey.
Soon, they communicated and summoned Amitabha Buddha and Bodhisattva Zhunti.
The three giants of the Buddhist Realm convened.
Amitabha Buddha’s face was somewhat bitter, realizing that both Tathagata Buddha and Zhunti were already within the realms of Supreme.
Among the three giants of the Buddhist Realm, he alone remained a Sub-Paramount.
Moreover, he had no confidence whatsoever in when he might break through.
Such a lord of the Buddhist Realm was truly dull.
Thinking of this, Amitabha Buddha’s face grew bitter.
Bodhisattva Zhunti’s gaze fell upon Tathagata Buddha, "Why did you call us over?"
Tathagata Buddha shared his feeling.
Bodhisattva Zhunti lightly furrowed his brow, sighing, "You’re not the only one with such a feeling, I too share it."
Upon hearing this, Amitabha Buddha was astonished and couldn’t help but ask, "Why don’t I feel that?"
After speaking, two gazes fell upon him.
It was then Amitabha Buddha realized the reason.
Their slightly contemptuous looks nearly exclaimed he was too weak.
Amitabha Buddha flushed slightly, feeling quite embarrassed.
He awkwardly chuckled, then rolled his eyes.
"What should we do? Seek aid from the Heavenly Court?"
Amitabha Buddha asked.
That was his first thought.
Only by seeking aid from the Heavenly Court could they contend against Emperor Jun and Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, could they not?
The looks from Tathagata Buddha and Bodhisattva Zhunti more resembled gazing at a simpleton.
"Did I say something wrong again?"
Amitabha Buddha was bewildered.
Had he mistakenly spoken again?
Bodhisattva Zhunti replied helplessly, "The Heavenly Court cannot defeat Emperor Jun or Eastern Emperor Tai Yi, let alone both of them united."
"Aren’t The Three Pure Ones there?"
Amitabha Buddha frowned.
Currently, being affiliated with the Heavenly Court was naturally seen as under the command of The Three Pure Ones.
Now Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and the Emperor intend to strike against them, The Three Pure Ones should intervene.
"Are The Three Pure Ones your father? Why would they help you?"
Tathagata Buddha said faintly.
Amitabha Buddha glared at Tathagata Buddha, wanting to retort.
Yet as he opened his mouth, he found no words to counter.
The wise were present.
Naturally recognizing that Tathagata Buddha spoke truthfully.
The Three Pure Ones would not intervene, even if they were under the Heavenly Court currently.
"Is annihilation our only fate?"
Amitabha Buddha couldn’t help but grumble.
"There’s another way."
Tathagata Buddha said.
"Speak quickly."
Amitabha Buddha hastily urged.
At such a moment, Tathagata Buddha’s words were ever anxiety-inducing.
"Escape."
Tathagata Buddha uttered a single word.
