The five arhats looked up at the sky. The person before them, regardless of how dignified his appearance, was a person of outstanding talent even by the Upper Realm’s standards. One look and they could see he was arrogant and had a great destiny.

However, they had no regrets about it.

No matter how large his destiny, how could he surpass the Buddha?

It was just a grotto-heaven. Why not offer it up to Buddha?

Sometimes, the higher the power, the less was needed to be said.

‘If you like something, just grab it. What’s the point of being careful?’

Human history repeated this over and over again. The struggle for the throne was often the bloodiest and dirtiest. The means used were not even as decent as vixens fighting on the street...

“My Buddha is compassionate. Almsgiver, this place clearly does not belong to anyone, why do you insist that it’s yours?” Arhat Tianhao pressed his palms together and shook his head.

“I won’t bother speaking nonsense with you Buddhist donkeys. We all have a good guess at what happened. I’ve worked hard to drive away the evil devils so that purity will return to this land. How can I allow you to steal it from us?” Vigilante A coldly said.

“Please don’t be so cruel with your words. You must know about karma. Today’s virtuous deeds shall become tomorrow’s rewards.” Arhat Tianhao chanted the Buddha’s name and said fearlessly.

“The only thing I know is that you lot have committed acts of evil...” Vigilante A said coldly.

The arhats suddenly froze at his words.

They exchanged glances, as if confused how a mere Lower Realm powerhouse could have this confidence before direct apprentices from the Upper Realm.

“I think you don’t quite understand, Almsgiver. The Upper Realm Buddha is on equivalent footing with saints, and have been leading the land for millions of years. We are taking this grotto-heaven today not for our own personal gain, but to present to the Buddha. Do you not wish to gain such a beneficial relationship?” Arhat Tianhao said lightly.

“Hmph, I used to read ancient books and thought that those ambitious Buddhas in myths were protecting you, but it seems they covered up too much.” Vigilante A said disdainfully.

At this moment, Tianjing Fawang showed up.

When he appeared, his expression was full of distress.

He knew that these Junior Brothers would not listen to his exhortations, but he never thought that they would be so impatient and act rashly before even gaining a firm foothold and clearly investigating what they were going up against.

They must have been too eager to perform meritorious deeds and take credit in front of their Buddha.

He pressed his palms together and said, “Please forgive them, Venerable One. My Junior Brothers have just arrived and been unaware of our promise. I shall reprimand them later.”

However, this time, Vigilante A did not listen to him.

There was a sudden thunderclap, and five dragons flew out from Vigilante A’s body. The green, purple, white, red, and yellow dragons flew to the five directions.

After another moment, the rising Buddha’s figure vanished into thin air like a bubble popping.

“Hmph, do you think that you’ll be able to stall for time by talking? Do you think that I’ll fall for that?”

The five arhats shook their heads and sighed, as if feeling sorry for the failure of their stratagem.

“If I don’t teach you all a lesson today, you’ll think that I’m easy to bully!”

Vigilante A raised a hand and the five dragons gathered before flying towards the five arhats.

“We’re about to witness the abilities of this Lower Realm’s mighty being.” The five arhats were still fearless and undaunted. A golden light glowed from their bodies.

“Sigh, why must you fight? Everyone walks the same path of righteousness, so why must there be a conflict? Please set aside your anger and sit down to have some tea. We can plan then...” Fawang persuaded.

However, no one from the two opposing listened to him.

Before, the five arhats had personally said that they would follow him blindly, but now it was obvious that they did not care about him at all.

He knew in his heart that those five arhats were all extremely capable in combat, and were considered battle arhats. They were all direct apprentices of the Buddha, and protectors of paradise.

They naturally would not easily follow his orders, as evidently proven now.

He turned his eyes to the Bodhisattva Spirit King and the River God of the Sky River.

However, the two mighty beings were indifferent and unperturbed. He could not discern what they were thinking about.

Black Robe sneered and mocked, “Fawang really is an honest person. Your Buddhism really is overbearing. If Vigilante A doesn’t demonstrate what he’s capable of, how would they obediently acknowledge the arrangement we made? As for you, it seems you really don’t have any authority. Had I known that earlier, I wouldn’t have given you that privilege at that time. Now it seems that really was useless and a waste of time...”

“You...” Fawang was speechless, but with his self-restraint, he naturally did not get angry. After all, what the other party said was true.

Reaching this step in cultivation, he naturally would not deceive others. He did have no authority. If it were a Bodhisattva in the oath of alliance, the five arhats would never rashly violate it and secretly try to seize the Heavenly Axiom’s right.

Saki Yamanashi pulled Black Robe’s robe, half confused and half mocking, “Uncle Black Robe, didn’t you say those that achieve Buddhahood are pure in heart and few in desire? Why is it that these five Upper Realm arhats, who are grand and successful, are no different than those who use petty tricks to steal and snatch?”

“Heh, you’re right, Saki. These Upper Realm Buddhists really hide quite a few of those disciples. They achieve results not by improving their hearts step by step, but by the Buddha casually saying a few words. Can you expect these people to be pure in heart, few in desires and noble in morality?” Black Robe dug out the memories that the Devil Lord gave him and scoffed.

“I see, I understand. Those five arhats were conferred by the Buddha...” Saki Yamanashi speculated.

“...” Tianjing Fawang was shocked. ‘This girl really is amazing. Regardless of whether it’s raked or not, to be able to guess immediately is amazing.

‘No wonder the Devil Lord Zhi Nan would accept her as his disciple. Her temperament was indeed excellent. To be able to act as he pleased without paying attention to the Buddha was one of the capabilities of a devil...

The five arhats almost vomited blood, but they could not bicker with a little girl. Moreover, what she said was not a lie, so there was nothing to refute.

However, they were not interested in this issue at this time, because the their death was right before them!

The five True Dragons swooped down fiercely.

Gales erupted, thunder roared, boulders towered, ice and snow formed blades, and raging flames burned!

The five dragons each unleashed their magic at will.

There were no more limitations in this world.

The five arhats, blessed with the golden light, each occupied a position and formed a simple Five Elemental Array. The golden light circulated and resisted the spell attacks from above.

After descending, they were different from Tianjing Fawang.

It had been more than two years, and the gap between the Upper and Lower Realms had become larger. The evolution of the Upper Realm’s Heavenly Axiom had also reached a new level.

The power limit had been opened higher, and when they descended, they were already in their peak state.

After descending, although they were restricted by this world’s Heavenly Axiom’s power limit, they were still as strong as Inland-sea Level powerhouses!

That was because in the Upper Realm, their true power, the power level of battle arhats, was above Inland-sea Level...
