The Soothing Spirit Pillar that had originally gathered immense power was immediately depleted of half its strength.
At the same time, Master An, who received the power augmentation from the other nine pillars, saw his strength surge, unexpectedly gaining the capital to contend with the Soothing Spirit Pillar.
A dark cloud twisted violently above the head of the man and the pillar, accompanied by loud thunder.
Meanwhile, the demons attracted by the Buddha's chant had turned away, each heading toward the nearest of the Ten Pillars.
"Amitabha, why must Master An cling to his stubbornness?"
"A demon is a demon. Even pretending to be a Buddha for a lifetime remains a demon!!"
Master An roared fiercely, swiftly absorbing more than half of the control, visibly shrinking the Soothing Spirit Pillar.
"It's almost done!!"
