At this moment, the entire earth-traversing vessel was almost completely wrecked. Billowing yin killing qi obscured the heavenly light, and the Buddhist arts were on the decline. Even a mere touch of their auras was like two towering mountains colliding, producing a thunderous explosion.
"... Benefactor, what an exquisite technique."
As Sunü appeared, "Guanghai's" expression became incomparably grave. He clearly no longer dared to view Lu Yang as a mere Qi Refining cultivator he could handle at will. Logically, no external Foundation Establishment power was allowed to interfere in the War for the Dao.
The reason he could display such strength was entirely due to a unique shortcut method of the Pure Land. Because strictly speaking, he was not the Dragon Subduing Arhat. He was "Guanghai," having only temporarily borrowed the status of the Dragon Subduing Arhat from the Pure Land.
He was able to borrow it because Guanghai was originally a disciple of the Dragon Subduing Temple. The cultivation of the Pure Land was about enlightenment—enlightening to the fact that one was a part of the World Honored One.
"I" am the World Honored One, the World Honored One is "me."
