Xiniuhezhou, at the foot of Lingshan.

A temple emitting vast Buddha light sits above the heavens, as if possessing limitless Dharma, avoiding all kinds of impurities.

The figures of Yang Jian and I slowly appear on the clouds.

For some reason, there has been no impurity obstructing our way along the journey, as if everything is peaceful and clear.

The wind blows on our faces, and the surroundings of Lingshan are unusually quiet, causing a chill to rise from the depths of our hearts.

"Lingshan, could it really be unaffected by any changes?"

Yang Jian furrows his eyebrows slightly and looks at Nezha.

Even his divine eyes cannot detect any impurity, but this silence still makes him feel uneasy.

"I don't know... It's just what the Buddha told me..."

"Moreover, now that we've found the scriptures first, do you have any other way to find the true form of the sorcery?"

Seeing the scenery of Lingshan, Nezha couldn't help but feel uncertain and spoke in a deep voice.

"Forget it, maybe we are overthinking. We have no retreat!"

After taking a deep breath, I see that the two of them hesitate, and my gaze becomes firm. I take the initiative to step into Lingshan!

We have no other choice!

If there is truly a method to discover the mysterious Heavenly Path in the scriptures, how can we miss it now?

Even though we know it might be a trap, we still have to try!

But... If there really is such a method, why doesn't the Tathagata share it with the Five Heavenly Emperors and others?

If we can kill the incarnations of the sorcery, wouldn't that be a tremendous merit?

I shake my head and dare not think further!

Just at this moment!

Countless auspicious gold lotuses fall from the sky!

A heavenly light extends into a seven-colored avenue in front of the three of us, and a white-robed monk slowly walks out from the Great Thunder Monastery above!

"I, the humble one, Nanda, have come here to welcome the Heavenly Emperor... May I ask why the Heavenly Emperor has come here?"

He smiles, with a vast Buddha intent emanating from his body, bright and grand.

My gaze slightly narrows, and I suddenly smile, calmly exchanging glances with the two beside me. I fall directly onto the seven-colored avenue and say softly:

"As the Great Sage, I have come to seek the Buddha's scriptures."

"Oh, the scriptures?"

Hearing my words, Nanda is slightly stunned, and then a barely noticeable ecstasy appears in his eyes.

"Hahaha! Good! Great Sage! You have finally come!"

"Come, come, come! The scriptures are only passed on to those with fate. Please enter the monastery quickly!"

He laughs heartily and warmly leads us into the Great Thunder Monastery.

We follow closely behind him, and slowly walk to the Great Thunder Monastery!

Suddenly, a glimmer of light flashes in my eyes, and the scene in front of me seems to be covered by an inexplicable haze!

It's the same feeling again!

Just like the feeling at the feast in the Heavenly Palace!

I widen my eyes and stare fixedly!

Before me, there is no longer a scene filled with a vast Buddha intent!

All the way, there are only withered monk corpses!

The golden Buddha statues all over the sky have already lost their vitality, their angry eyes wide open!

In the blood-red lotus pond, there are floating and sinking Buddha heads!

On the lotus platform, there are all sorts of strange demons!

Lingshan... has fallen!

"Great Sage... Why have you stopped?"

Suddenly, Nanda turns around and smiles.

In my eyes, he hasn't changed at all.

In that instant, it feels as if a thunderbolt passes through my mind, and I understand everything!

Heavenly Emperor... Tathagata?

What a grand game of chess!

I suddenly burst into laughter.

Magic in the heavens and earth!

Three heads and six arms!

Unleashing demonic power!

The Golden Cudgel transforms into a Heavenly Pillar!

"Kill!"

My face becomes fierce, and I shout in anger!

This strike, I use all my strength, aiming straight at Nanda!

The tremendous power astounds all the Buddhas, causing the sun and moon to lose their radiance!

This strike!

It possesses the power to change the mountains and rivers, the power to slay gods and Buddhas!
