My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Seeing this, Feng Ruoxue's eyes filled with murderous intent. At this moment, she had already drawn her sword and had no chance to retract it. If she were to sheathe her sword now, she couldn't fend off the opponent's attack. She could only fight with her life on the line!

Hurt of Wind!

With a slash, Feng Ruoxue cut off another arm of the Eight-Armed Great Buddha. At the same time, the multitude of Buddha hands descended upon the heads of the Cloud Clan disciples, ready to strike.

Each of these Buddha hands was comparable to an attack from a Divine Realm expert, making it impossible for the disciples to resist. The Divine Realm experts of Cloud Clan stood in front of their disciples, their expressions grim. They knew they couldn't withstand these attacks, but they had to protect the younger generation; they were the hope!

"Today, we can die together with the clan leader!"

"Hahaha!"

One of the Cloud Clan elders laughed heartily, and the other elders followed suit. Only countless Cloud Clan disciples were left with tear-filled eyes, unable to utter a word.

In this moment of dire crisis, Mu Yuyan also couldn't rush to help. Her Ice Heart Art had not yet reached full maturity and could only freeze a small area around her, unable to save so many Cloud Clan disciples.

Mu Yuyan took out the Great Teleportation Order, preparing to activate it forcefully to rescue three thousand Cloud Clan disciples. But at that moment, the space trembled violently, causing the Great Teleportation Order to become unusable.

Seeing this situation, Mu Yuyan was unexpectedly delighted. She looked toward the source of the spatial disturbance, where the multitude of Buddha hands were concentrated and where the Cloud Clan disciples gathered.

At that moment, a figure in a green robe appeared between the Buddha hands and the Cloud Clan disciples.

"It's my husband!"

Mu Yuyan's face lit up with surprise.

In the next moment, Gu Lan's figure emerged.

"Hmph! You dare to take my Buddha hand directly? Seeking death!"

"Even if you are at the peak of the Main God Realm, today, you shall not return!"

The Eight-Armed Great Buddha's expression turned ruthless as he increased the force of his Buddha hands. He didn't care who the newcomer was. At this moment, the Cloud Clan's protective mountain formation had been shattered, and their Supreme Treasure of Merits, the Banana Leaf Fan, had been used. No one could stop him now.

Feng Ruoxue's sword was pushed back with one of his arms raised. As a peak Main God Realm expert, he was the strongest beneath Bright Clan Divine Son Arthur, and he had this confidence.

"Be careful, fellow daoist!"

The Divine Realm experts of Cloud Clan all warned in unison.

Seeing Gu Lan coming to her aid, Feng Ruoxue felt both grateful and worried. She wanted to raise her sword to continue fighting, but she needed time.

"I'll send you to the Western Paradise!"

The Eight-Armed Great Buddha bellowed, and the countless Buddha hands with terrifying power slammed down on Gu Lan.

"Does Bright Clan also practice Buddhism? It's simply a mishmash!"

"Let me show you what a true Buddha is!"

After appearing, Gu Lan immediately put his hands together and declared loudly, "There is no Bodhi in this world; my heart is the Tathagata!"

As his voice fell, a triad of Lotus Phala instantly appeared at his feet. A Buddha statue, larger than the Eight-Armed Great Buddha, materialized behind Gu Lan, resembling a Buddha descending into the world.

Waves of Merit power emanated from Gu Lan, further enhancing the majesty of the Buddha statue.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Heavy thuds echoed as the countless Buddha hands were entirely blocked by the Buddha statue.

"What a powerful divine ability!"

"Who is this Buddhist expert willing to come to the aid of my Cloud Clan at this moment?"

"Could it be a master from the Justice Virtue Temple?"

Seeing this scene, the Cloud Clan Divine Realm elders were all dumbfounded. The lower-ranking Cloud Clan disciples gazed eagerly at the powerful figure, aspiring to become as strong as he was one day. They wished to protect their sect and all they held dear.

"He has become this strong already?"

Feng Ruoxue was shaken by this sight. Reflecting on her first encounter with Gu Lan, she never imagined he would achieve such power today. No wonder Yuyan chose to spend her life with him; who could resist being captivated by such a brilliant talent?

"Lotus Phala, proving the Tathagata—how could you possess such profound Buddhist attainments?"

In the distance, the Eight-Armed Great Buddha's expression changed drastically. His unwavering resolve began to waver at this moment.

"How high is it?"

"Just something to use."

"I don't practice Buddhism!"

Standing atop the Lotus Phala, Gu Lan radiated a light that surpassed even divine beings. He gently slapped his palm, and the Buddha statue behind him mirrored the motion.

Everyone in the arena felt a shockwave as they witnessed this scene; even though it wasn't directed at them, the pressure was overwhelming.

"Suppression!"

As his palm struck out, it soared with the wind, and five golden fingers appeared above the Eight-Armed Great Buddha's head like five massive mountains, descending at an unimaginable speed.

"What does the Tathagata matter? I don't even chant the name of the Tathagata!"

"If you wish to suppress me, let the Tathagata himself come!"

"Break for me!"

The Eight-Armed Great Buddha thrust out both arms and stomped fiercely on the ground, launching himself upward. Facing the Buddha palm's suppression, he had no choice but to confront it head-on.

He had confidence in his Eight-Armed Great Buddha.

In this world, there was nothing he couldn't lift.

Let alone five mountains; even fifty mountains, he could easily raise.

Bang!

The Eight-Armed Great Buddha's arms collided with the Buddha palm, and the terrifying force caused his massive body to plunge downwards, crashing to the ground.

The power contained in the Buddha palm exceeded his expectations, directly driving him into the earth.

In an instant, it felt as though the sky had trembled, and the commotion was even greater than when the Banana Leaf Fan was wielded.

Dust filled the air, and the Buddha palm pressed down, leaving no trace of the Eight-Armed Great Buddha behind. Only Gu Lan could perceive his presence.

"Rise! Open!"

The Eight-Armed Great Buddha struggled beneath the earth.

He had never expected that the palm contained such tremendous power. Besides the mountain-like strength, there was also a powerful force of Buddhist suppression and sealing.

With all these forces combined, he found himself utterly immobilized.

"Who on earth is this person?"

He kept recalling in his mind but couldn't think of any Buddhist figure in the Six Realms capable of such a feat.

When he had defected from the Justice Virtue Temple and joined the Bright Clan, even the old monk from the Justice Virtue Temple hadn't possessed such strength.

Suddenly, recalling Gu Lan's appearance, he thought of a newly emerged force opposing the Bright Clan.

"Could this person be the master of the Lanyan Royal School?"

The Eight-Armed Great Buddha's heart raced in shock.

He could hardly fathom that the legendary master of the Lanyan Royal School possessed such formidable Buddhist abilities.

"If he practices Confucianism, yet his Buddhist arts are this terrifying, then his fundamental strength is likely no less than that of a God Realm expert!"

"This person must be the great enemy of the Bright Clan!"

At this moment, the elder of the Bright Clan realized he was no match for Gu Lan.

He had lost the desire to confront Gu Lan and only wanted to figure out how to escape.

But with the Buddha palm suppressing him above, even manipulating the forces of time and space became difficult; how could he possibly flee?
