Chapter 501: Chapter 371 My Buddha is Fortunate_2
Qing Lian knocked out all the guards without discrimination, opened his mouth, and sucked in all the jade slips into his belly.
After swallowing seven floors worth, upon reaching the eighth floor, the Formation’s spiritual light shimmered.
Dang, dang, dang—
The Scripture Pavilion sounded the alarm bells, and dozens of fleeing lights hurried over, only to see Qing Lian breaking through the air and leaving.
...
Heavenly Court.
Overhanging Firmament Hall.
Deities stood to the left and right, a total of one hundred and twenty-seven in number.
These were all the True Gods born out of the incense and divine power cultivated since the establishment of the Heavenly Court, among which a dozen had already passed away.
Most of the deities in the hall had long stopped meddling in worldly affairs, they had given up their busy divine positions for honorary ones, such as Lord Taibai, Moonlight Star Lord, and so on.
Star Lords ranked at the top tier, but they had no real power, only receiving a fixed amount of incense offerings to maintain their divine forms.
Lord Taibai, Bai Suixin, stood on the left side, positioned fifth. Above, the Heavenly Emperor was speaking fervently, and he twitched occasionally as if cursed, his face contorting in agony!
Dragon Virtue Star Lord, standing beside him, transmitted a message: “What’s the matter with you? At such a critical juncture that concerns the fate of the Divine Continent, how dare you behave so frivolously?”
“It’s not frivolity on my part, I’m genuinely in pain, it’s killing me!”
Bai Suixin clutched his chest, anyone whose thousands of years of accumulation had been swept away, along with their sect’s scriptures and treasures, would think about smashing their head against the walls of the Overhanging Firmament Hall.
“You mustn’t create a disturbance!”
Dragon Virtue Star Lord was a True God of Buddhism, with the Dharma name Jizhen. He and Bai Suixin were of similar age and shared a good rapport on ordinary days.
Grinning, Bai Suixin said, “I’m itching, my whole body is itching...”
Before he could finish,
a cold gaze fell upon him, and the Heavenly Emperor said with a sullen tone, “Does Lord Taibai have any objections to what We have been saying?”
“None whatsoever.”@@@@
Bai Suixin said, “Your old subject has followed Your Majesty for two thousand years and is Your staunchest supporter. I’d beat anyone opposing You until they can’t find their teeth!”
The Heavenly Emperor was briefly stunned, a touch of emotion flickering in his eyes.
In the past, when Bai Suixin had duty days in the Heavenly Court, he had been an extremely difficult person to manage, blatantly favoring the Qingyun Mountain lineage, which the Heavenly Emperor greatly disliked.
Now, it seemed, Bai Suixin’s loyalty was genuine, unlike other True Gods who harbored deceit.
“My dear subject’s words are of great comfort to Me. It shows that not everyone has been blind to My accomplishments during these three thousand years!”
Bai Suixin’s eyes shifted as he flattered: “Your Majesty’s illustrious achievements will be renowned through the ages, incomparable to ordinary mortals. I was impetuous in my younger years, but now I have come to my senses, and I ask for Your Majesty’s forgiveness!”
“My dear subject, after your duty shift, come fishing with Me at the Heavenly Pond.”
The Heavenly Emperor laughed heartily, his gaze sweeping over the gods on his right and said, “Then let’s begin now. Raise your hands to vote on whether to appoint Zhao Yao as the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Court.”
“Your Majesty is wise.”
Yang Xuan bowed respectfully, raising his arm first.
The True Gods from the mendicant sects quickly followed, lifting their right hands, and seeing this, the Loose Cultivator True Gods also raised their hands in support.
“Fortunately, my cultivation is profound. Otherwise, such abrupt advancement would have certainly undermined my foundation. Heavenly Court, Lord Taibai, I will have my revenge!”
At this moment, Qing Lian’s aura was robust, having reached the pinnacle of Nascent Soul, a mere step away from the Divinity Transformation.
He cast a spell to divine his fortune for the day, which foretold no danger.
He rode his light and departed, landing atop You Mountain half a day later, immediately feeling a blood connection.
“In my despair years ago, my celestial body shattered and I entered nirvana, scattering Immortal Blood into the mountains. After countless years of dispersal, only a bit of the essence remains!”
“Nevertheless, this is good. Using the Immortal Blood Essence to rebuild my foundation, and avoiding the wrong paths of cultivation from my past life, perhaps I can advance even further.”
Qing Lian was about to merge with You Mountain and retrieve the Immortal Blood when suddenly a Buddhist chant sounded by his ear.
“Amitabha!”
The monk pressed his palms together, his face radiating compassion: “I am Jizhen, ranked among the Heavenly Court as Dragon Virtue Star Lord. I see that you, dear Daoist, have a predestined connection with our Buddhist Law. Would you be willing to follow this humble monk to Spirit Mountain for cultivation?”
“...”
Qing Lian refused, “I am dedicated solely to the path of Dao; I have no interest in cultivating Buddhism!”
“Indeed, Daoist friend is willing. You truly have a heart dedicated to Buddhism.”
Jizhen nodded slightly, his Monk’s Robe fluttering as it enveloped Qing Lian, “Spirit Mountain possesses thousands of volumes of Buddhist Law. You would do well to study thoroughly, Daoist friend, and you will surely realize the grand Dao one day.”
“I said, I am unwilling to cultivate Buddhism!”
Qing Lian shattered the void and escaped thousands of miles, only to turn back and see Jizhen chasing after him.
Jizhen said, “I heard you clearly, Daoist friend is willing.”
As he spoke, his Kasaya flew up, eclipsing the sky, enshrouding Qing Lian within, sealing his mana and soul, then folding it up and tying it into a bundle.
...
Ten years later.
Qing Lian emerged from seclusion, having fully assimilated the medicinal power within his body.
“Fortunately, my cultivation is profound. Otherwise, such abrupt advancement would have certainly undermined my foundation. Heavenly Court, Lord Taibai, I will have my revenge!”
At this moment, Qing Lian’s aura was robust, having reached the pinnacle of Nascent Soul, a mere step away from the Divinity Transformation.
