Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's stomach twisted when he saw Wu Yu pressing the attack.
"Calico Bag Arhat, you suicidal swine. You think I'm not your match because I'm injured? Die!"
He snarled, vengeful fury written all over his immortal buddha trueform.
Wu Yu's usage of the Black Buddha's Bone Erosion majestic buddha technique only stirred Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's buddha world up further. It actually grew bigger.
"Majestic buddha Mystique, Expanded Buddha World!"
As Nanwu Tranquil Buddha used this Mystique, his buddha world swelled to more than twice its original size!
In comparison to this huge buddha world, Wu Yu's Calico Bag Arhat buddha world appeared like a child, and looked to be about to be smashed.
"Heaven Devouring Calico Bag, devour!"
Wu Yu was unafraid. Glowing anew with light, the Heaven Devouring Calico Bag redoubled its devour ability.
Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's expanded buddha world was held down by the ferocious sucking power, and unable to move any closer to Wu Yu's buddha world.
Whereas Wu Yu's Black Buddha's Bone Erosion continued to eat away at the huge buddha world.
Although the buddha world was huge and twice as powerful now, but Heaven Devouring Calico Bag still managed to fend it off.
Perhaps ordinarily, Nanwu Tranquil Buddha would have been able to brush it off, but his injuries limited his powers to 70 percent of their peak, and this made him lose handily to Wu Yu.
Although Expanded Buddha World made his buddha world much stronger, but it was being sucked down by Heaven Devouring Calico Bag, and posed no threat to Wu Yu.
"Heavenly Palm of Buddha!"
From Calico Bag Arhat's memories, he raised a huge palm and sent an enormous buddha palm attack flying towards Nanwu Tranquil Buddha!
It smacked against Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's buddha world and got a few yelps out of him.
Nanwu Tranquil Buddha howled madly: "I won't let you get away with this!"
Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's expanded buddha world suddenly swelled further, and its terrifying buddha world power bubbled out.
"Majestic buddha Mystique...... Flood of the Buddha World!"
Nanwu Tranquil Buddha had been thoroughly pinned down, but he could still cause his buddha world to well with power.
All of his remaining buddha world power gushed out!
This was a sort of suicidal Mystique. It was very seldom seen in Heavenly Buddha's Domain, as not many immortal buddhas would go to such lengths.
After all, once Flood of the Buddha World was used, their own life force would be expended, and they would die. Although immortal buddhas fought recklessly over valuable resources such as divine sarira, but ultimately they valued their life above all.
In Heavenly Domain, there were many immortals who valued things more than their lives, such as friendships or lovers. Such pure things were still seen in Heavenly Domain sometimes.
But in Heavenly Buddha's Domain, that was impossible.
Therefore, a suicidal Mystique was very seldom seen. It would only be used out of spite in desperate times to take the enemy down with you.
A sick feeling gripped Wu Yu's stomach.
"Heaven Devouring Calico Bag!"
It was his only hope. The black vortex swirled with devouring power, and he sent it blasting out towards the source of the attack.
Flood of the Buddha World's power was unbelievable, but a majority of it was devoured up by the Heaven Devouring Calico Bag.
The remaining bit was tanked by his Calico Bag Arhat buddha world as damage, but it did not matter. After all, it was not his real body.
Even if the Calico Bag Arhat's buddha world was completely destroyed, he would be fine.
However, the Tranquil Kasaya epochal immortal treasure had been sent flying in the resultant explosion, and had vanished in the distance.
There were too many immortal buddhas in the area, and they would snatch up such a treasure instantly. It was definitely gone.
Wu Yu had been too focused on defending himself, and had not taken note of which direction it had flown in.
"Forget it, it's just an epochal immortal treasure. The Heaven Devouring Calico Bag is good enough!"
Wu Yu was not too greedy. He could sense that the Calico Bag Arhat's buddha world was damaged. Although it was not too bad, it still compromised his power as Calico Bag Arhat.
"Seems like I'll have to move around as Longbrowed Arhat Immortal Buddha then."
Of course, there was no need to change immediately.
He took out the Heaven Devouring Calico Bag and put Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's body inside.
Although Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's buddha world was gone, but his corpse was just as good. Dismembered or otherwise, it was all the same to his stomach.
As for Nanwu Tranquil Buddha's majestic buddha Mystique Flood of the Buddha World, it had attracted the curiosity of many immortal buddhas.
Wu Yu did not dare to linger. Taking away the two divine sarira that Nanwu Tranquil Buddha had, he melted away.
By the time the immortal buddhas had come prying, Wu Yu was long gone.
The outside of Expanse of Nirvana was chaos, with battles breaking out everywhere.
Therefore, Wu Yu could just burrow himself deep in any place, and it would be hard to find him.
Wu Yu continued to search for opportunities. He was not satisfied with this number of divine sarira. More was better. After all, he could cultivate them as well.
"It's madness. Although it's only held once every 100,000 years, I bet it's also the time when the most immortal buddhas die."
Wu Yu stayed on the move. He came across many immortal buddhas who had died, their buddha worlds asunder.
Wu Yu had thought there were way more than 10,000 immortal buddhas present, but given the speed that they were dying at, it was understandable now.
Besides, this was not even the most intense phase of fighting yet.
From Longbrowed Arhat and Calico Bag Arhat's memories, he knew that there was another more intense phase coming up.
Wu Yu had the Insignia of Nirvana, and could enter Expanse of Nirvana directly.
However, those who could not enter would fight like crazy for the chance to present divine sarira to Xuanzang, the Buddha Above All.
It would grant them the right to stay in Expanse of Nirvana.
There were limited spots, and one would have to beat their way past many other immortal buddhas to even reach Expanse of Nirvana.
The number of immortal buddhas who would die then was more than double the current casualties.
Tens of thousands of immortal buddhas died during Pilgrimage of 10,000 Buddhas.
The only reason a balance was maintained was because the situation usually calmed down after each Pilgrimage of 10,000 Buddhas.
Those who had succeeded would remain in Expanse of Nirvana.
There would be many less immortal buddhas roaming the skies, and divine sarira appearances would continue to give rise to new immortal buddhas.
"Chance's here!"
Wu Yu wandered close to the perimeter of Expanse of Nirvana, not straying too far.
This time, he had come across a bunch of immortal buddhas fighting over one divine sarira. He hid himself nearby to watch.
As they were locked in a particularly intense clash, Wu Yu shot over swiftly, and sucked the divine sarira into his Heaven Devouring Calico Bag!
The immortal buddhas were completely blindsided by the Calico Bag Arhat's hit-and-run tactic, and froze in confusion. Belatedly, they thought to give chase, but who could catch Wu Yu?
Wu Yu had already vanished!
Wu Yu remained cautious. Nanwu Tranquil Buddha was a further reminder that Calico Bag Arhat was not the most powerful of beings here. There would definitely be those way beyond his level.
Wu Yu gave those immortal buddhas a wide berth, trying to avoid being targeted.
For example, there was a pair of immortal buddhas called Nanwu Essence Evolution Military Buddha and Nanwu Essence Evolution Joyful Buddha. They were both fifth tier immortal buddhas, and a rare sight who were always teamed up.
Not even Calico Bag Arhat dared to take them lightly. Their combined strength was not something that ordinary immortal buddhas could contend with.
If he crossed them, it would be death.
However, as Wu Yu passed them this time, he saw that they were locked in bitter battle. In front of them there were a dozen immortal buddhas all fighting them together, in order to get their four divine sarira!
It was an epic battle, and the other immortal buddhas stayed clear. A stray attack could kill them.
Even Wu Yu did not dare to get that close, fearing for his own life.
Still, he did not go away either. He hung around, seeing if there was a chance for him to swoop in and profit. A few immortal buddha corpses, or even divine sarira - all of it was a good haul.
