#2152 - Tathagata was furious
In a normal fight, Maitreya and Dipankara Buddha would be evenly matched, with neither able to overcome the other.
But these two are top-tier figures in the Three Realms, and no one else can interfere in their battles.
Moreover, the clash of their divine powers and spells creates an astonishing impact and destructive force, with the aftershocks of their battle felt within a radius of dozens of kilometers.
Adding to this the slaughter of big shots like Guanyin and the Centipede Demon, along with their soldiers, the devastation to Jinping Prefecture is unimaginable.
Jinping Prefecture was originally a flat plain. Although Jinping City was destroyed and turned into ruins, the villages, towns, and farmlands outside the city were largely undamaged.
But after such a commotion, those villages, towns, and farmlands could no longer be preserved.
On the plains, large pits appeared due to the impact of magical battles, and the entire Jinping Prefecture was slowly turning into the surface of the moon.
Tang Sanzang and his disciples watched this battle, which had lasted for a whole day, with casualties on both sides, but the number of combatants was already large.
"How long do you think this battle will last?"
Tang Sanzang couldn't help but ask Sun Wukong and the others.
"I think it will take at least four or five days to see a result,"
Sun Wukong speculated.
"Four or five days might not be enough. I think it will take at least six or seven days,"
Pigsy predicted an even longer duration.
"That's nothing surprising. It's common for major battles between such powerful forces to last for a month or so,"
Sandy was relatively calm, showing little interest in the battle.
After a day of fighting, the Western Heaven side had lost over a thousand Buddhas, but the loss of main combat power was not significant.
The Demon Clan suffered more casualties, reaching over ten thousand, but similarly, the losses among the Demon Clan's big shots and main combat power were relatively low.
This is why the battle would last for a long time. In fact, the key to this battle lies in the contest between those big shots and heavyweights.
After all, one big shot or heavyweight is equivalent to hundreds or even thousands of ordinary soldiers, and their victory or defeat is directly related to the entire battle situation.
And the clashes between the heavyweights are basically choices of opponents with comparable strength, and it is unlikely that there will be an absolute crushing in terms of strength.
The battle continued into the second day, and the number of personnel was still decreasing, but the vast majority of the losses were still ordinary cannon fodder.
The entire land of Jinping Prefecture was covered with corpses and rivers of blood, a scene that was too horrible to bear.
The battle between Dipankara Buddha and Maitreya was the most intense. In the past three days, the two sides had exchanged blows for over a hundred rounds.
But still, no winner had been decided. Both of them had bloodshot eyes and were using all their strength.
The two sides even launched magical bombardments against each other, leaving hundreds of large pits, each hundreds of square meters, on the nearby ground.
At this time, in the Western Heaven's Leiyin Temple, the Tathagata appeared very relaxed and comfortable.
Because according to the report from Dipankara Buddha, everything was very favorable for the Western Heaven.
Guanyin used a trick to lure Chu Hao away. The Western Heaven dispatched all its elites, and it was not at a disadvantage against the Demon Clan. According to the progress of the battle between the two sides, the Western Heaven's chances of winning could reach seventy to eighty percent.
"Being able to protect the land of Jinping Prefecture, the result is still acceptable."
Although Jinping Prefecture had been through constant twists and turns, it was considered a good result compared to the previous outcome.
Just as the Tathagata was drinking tea and making calculations in his heart, a disciple monk suddenly rushed in to report.
"Reporting to the Buddha, the capital of the Tianzhu Kingdom has been attacked by demons, and the people have suffered heavy casualties. The situation is extremely chaotic. We request that the Western Heaven send people to subdue the demons."
"How could there be demons appearing? It doesn't matter, immediately send people to go."
Although the Tathagata Buddha felt a little puzzled, wondering why demons would suddenly appear to cause trouble, he didn't think too much about it.
Mere demons were not to be feared by the Western Heaven. Sending a Buddha to clean them up would be enough.
As soon as the disciple monk had retreated, another disciple monk rushed in.
"Reporting to the Buddha, the Luosang Kingdom has been attacked by demons. We request that the Western Heaven immediately send people to subdue the demons and eliminate evil!"
"Hmm, could these demons be together?"
The Tathagata felt that something was wrong, but he still couldn't figure out what it was.
"Send people to subdue the demons and eliminate evil!"
The Tathagata issued a decree.
"Demons are rampant in Xiyun Kingdom, and even the temples have been destroyed by demons."
Hearing these successive reports, all of which were news of demons causing chaos, the Tathagata Buddha was immediately stunned.
This Western Heaven is known as the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, and the Buddhist control is extremely strict. Demons have long been basically wiped out.
Why did so many demons suddenly emerge, and all the countries and factions in the Western Heaven began to ask for help?
"Immediately send people to go!"
The Tathagata Buddha frowned, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on.
But the reports continued incessantly, and the disciple monks came and went without end.
"Demons have appeared in Haohai City, requesting assistance."
"Demons have appeared in Honghua Prefecture."
"There are a large number of demons in Black Jade City."
… …
These successive reports made the Tathagata Buddha feel a little overwhelmed. Just how many demons were there? Was the Western Heaven about to become a nest of demons?
"Send people to go."
The Tathagata Buddha said somewhat impatiently to the disciple monks one by one.
"Buddha, our manpower has been almost completely dispatched, and there is no one available."
These successive reports and requests for assistance numbered no less than several hundred. Now, the main force of the Western Heaven was all in Jinping Prefecture. Where would there be so much manpower available?
"Damn it, where did so many demons come from? Are these demons treating the land of the Western Heaven as a paradise?"
The Tathagata Buddha was furious. With so many demons causing trouble, how could the territory under the Western Heaven's jurisdiction remain peaceful?
The Western Heaven had always been known as the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. Now that demons were rampant, wasn't that the same as slapping the Western Heaven in the face?
If the demons were allowed to wreak havoc, it would have a huge impact on the Western Heaven's jurisdiction, and the foundation of the Western Heaven might be shaken.
"Why doesn't the Buddha use his Buddha Eye divine power to see where those demons came from and why there are so many of them?"
A disciple next to him suggested to the Tathagata Buddha.
"Well, I will use my divine power to investigate."
The Tathagata Buddha took a sip of tea and then unleashed his Buddha Eye divine power.
The Tathagata's Buddha Eye divine power could observe the Three Realms, so naturally, he could check the origins of those demons.
However, after some investigation, the Tathagata appeared even more furious, and he angrily smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground.
"Those tens of thousands of demons that came out of the North Sea Eye, why didn't they stay in the North Sea properly? Why did they all come to our Western Heaven?"
