During the ninth divine lecture, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue’s divine senses appeared on the back mountain of the Mount Taihua Holy Land.
However, the back mountain of the simulated Mount Taihua Holy Land was slightly different from the current one, lacking many pavilions and terraces.
“This is the Mount Taihua Holy Land from the Ancient Times. Could the lecturer be the founding Mount Taihua Goddess?”
Lu Changsheng could only see a hazy figure, bearing some resemblance to the Mount Taihua Goddess depicted in the Goddess Daoxu Mural.
Unexpectedly, the system could even simulate the scene of ancient human tribe great experts delivering spiritual lectures!
Xia Ningxue was also shocked.
An existence like the Mount Taihua Goddess, the opportunity to listen to her lecture was extremely rare.
All that could be heard was the Mount Taihua Goddess’s voice, her pleasant sound echoing around the back mountain.
All the Elders and Disciples of the back mountain hung on her every word.
Beneath were the Mount Taihua Goddess’s direct disciples, their ancestors hailing from branches of the Jiang Clan, Ye Family, and others from the Mount Taihua Holy Land.
Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue were completely immersed in the ambiance, listening intently.
The opportunity to hear the Mount Taihua Goddess deliver a lecture was beyond rare.
The realm of the Mount Taihua Goddess was higher than that of Lin Xuantong, Elder Ancestor of Lin Clan, Changliu the Immortal, and the Yaochi Holy Mother; her understanding of the Three Thousand Great Dao pointed to the essence.
At one point, Lu Changsheng wondered if the Mount Taihua Goddess was nearing true immortality.
After all, this was a great expert who had opened up a holy land in the Ancient Times.
The Mount Taihua Goddess’s lecture continued for forty-nine days.
For the initial thirty-six days, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue could barely understand the content, while the final thirteen days felt like cryptic heavenly books.
The two of them could only forcefully memorize the Mount Taihua Goddess’s understanding of Dao, waiting to digest and comprehend it once they reached a higher realm.
“The Mount Taihua Goddess is indeed formidable.”
Xia Ningxue reflected carefully on the content previously explained by the Mount Taihua Goddess, sighing with emotion.
The content from the forty-nine days was enough for Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue to ponder for a long time.
“If I tell my master I’ve seen the Mount Taihua Goddess, he definitely won’t believe me.”
Lu Changsheng was fortunate to hear the Mount Taihua Goddess preach, an opportunity even Lin Xuantong and Elder Ancestor of Lin Clan did not have.
[Ding, your eleventh disciple “Chen Yi” has ascended from Daluo Golden Immortal to Quasi-Emperor realm, and you have received the disciple realm advancement reward: Buddhist Merit Treasure “Empowerment Staff.”]
The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator prompted, and Lu Changsheng received a supreme Buddhist Merit Treasure.
This was a staff to vanquish demons, yet it was a supreme Merit Treasure, needing the nourishment of incense merit to grow continually.
“My disciple is truly no ordinary reincarnation of an Ancient Buddha.”
Lu Changsheng knew that this Merit Treasure was tailored by the system for his eleventh disciple, Chen Yi.
Chen Yi possessed two Merit Treasures, the Eight Treasures Merit Pool and the Empowerment Staff.
Both treasures were Buddhist instruments, and if cultivated with supreme merit, the potential of Chen Yi would be immeasurable.
Lu Changsheng sent his disciples down the mountain to spread benevolence and obtain worldly incense offerings, accumulating merit.
At that time, Chen Yi was traveling through the Immortal Realm, passing by Duye Country.
Demons ran rampant in Duye Country, and Chen Yi, arriving in the capital, exposed the State Preceptor as a Great Demon.
After a fierce battle, he ultimately slew the Great Demon, and this enlightenment helped Chen Yi make a breakthrough in this kingdom.
Buddhist radiance splendor covered ten thousand li, visible to the common folks like the morning sun’s light.
Citizens in every city worshiped reverently.
With Chen Yi’s breakthrough, divine melodies sounded, and celestial maidens scattered flowers, while the earth sprouted golden lotuses.
The Golden Immortal Realm king, looking at the ten thousand li of Buddhist radiance with reverence, muttered to himself, “Soon, another Buddha will be born.”
Forty-nine days later, the Buddhist radiance gradually faded, and Chen Yi opened his eyes, a half step away from becoming a true Buddha.
Buddha is a term for Buddhist experts above the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Buddhist experts of Immortal Emperor and Divine King Realms are addressed as Buddha.
Chen Yi’s appearance was dignified, inheriting the temperament of an Ancient Buddha.
However, because of the influence of his free-spirited master, Lu Changsheng, Chen Yi lacked the rigidness and complicated rites of Buddhas from places like the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and Mt. Sumeru Holy Land: “The demon here is eliminated, I bid you farewell.”
“Great Master, you have bestowed upon Duye Country the grace of rebirth; please stay for a few more days.”
“No, thank you.”
Chen Yi brought out a Wooden Fish Treasure, which enlarged in the wind. He stood above the Wooden Fish, which transformed into a golden light and sped away through the sky.
“Truly a noble being, asking for no reward in return.”
The king of Duye Country praised with admiration.
After Chen Yi disposed of the Great Demon in Duye Country, at the temple of the Grand Freedom Buddha in Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, a golden lamp before him extinguished.

The Grand Freedom Buddha’s eyes held a cold light.
The King of Chaos of Accumulated Thunder Mountain, National Master Mulu of Duye Country; these Great Demons were nurtured by the Grand Freedom Buddha to do his dirty work, so he would avoid accumulating karma and impeding his cultivation of Buddhist techniques.
The Grand Freedom Buddha used his divinity to twist space and time, and the scene of National Master Mulu’s execution appeared before him.
“It is this youngster; he has become a Quasi-Buddha. Which ancient Buddha has reincarnated into this kid?”
The Grand Freedom Buddha recognized Chen Yi and was immediately displeased.
Chen Yi killed National Master Mulu, and his master, Lu Changsheng, obliterated the King of Chaos.
These Great Demons, whether they were mounts of the Grand Freedom Buddha or Great Demons subjugated by him, Lu Changsheng and his disciple were challenging his authority.
“When the opportunity arises, I will definitely discipline this master and disciple duo. Lu Changsheng owns an ultimate Talisman; that puppet is too strong, and I am no match for him. It seems I must persuade the Buddha Lord to act and teach them a lesson.”
