“Disciple is not skilled enough in his cultivation; I have caused my master and many fellow disciples to worry.”
After Chen Yi severed the karma with his past life, seeing his master, Lu Changsheng, and his many fellow disciples protecting him, he couldn’t help but feel ashamed.
“We didn’t help much; it was entirely your own obsession that allowed you to sever the connection with your past life. However…” Lu Changsheng hesitated, then shifted the topic, “you still need to focus diligently on your cultivation.”
Lu Changsheng’s subtle stance caused Xia Ningxue, Lin Qingzhi, and Yun Qianyue’s expressions to slightly shift as if they sensed something amiss.
“Disciple wishes to enter seclusion to make a breakthrough.”
Feeling the surging True Qi inside his body and having absorbed a significant amount of aspirations from his past life, Chen Yi was just one step away from breaking through to the Divine King Realm.
“As your teacher, I will apply to the Holy Land for you to enter the special Daoist training ground for Tribulation.”
Lu Changsheng had not expected this disciple to be the second one aiming to reach the Divine King Realm.
After Dantai Meng left, Lu Changsheng had another disciple in the Divine King Realm.
Chen Yi headed to the Daoist training ground in Mount Taihua Sacred Land, specifically designed for undergoing Tribulation.
Xu Jing glanced at Yun Qianyue from the corner of his eye. Yun Qianyue’s brow was not relaxed: “Did you perceive something?”
Yun Qianyue stroked her hair: “The karma of the Ancient Buddha is not so easily severed. The law of reincarnation is not so simple; there might still be hidden dangers.”
“I think you’re worrying too much; let nature take its course. Junior Sister, how about we go fishing?”
“…”
Yun Qianyue sighed helplessly, Xu Jing really is an optimist.
“Let’s go.”
“Really can’t do anything with you.”
Xu Jing and Yun Qianyue went to fish at Tianqing Lake in Mount Taihua Sacred Land.
In the tribulation ground, Chen Yi, making his breakthrough, attracted the aspirations of all living beings gathered from all directions of the Immortal Realm.
In some temples in mortal cities built due to Chen Yi’s benevolence, where clay and golden statues of Chen Yi were worshipped, a brilliant golden light flourished.
“The Holy Monk has manifested!”
“Our Duye Country once received the grace of the Holy Buddha; the Holy Monk has always been protecting us!”
“May the Holy Monk bless our Duye Country with favorable weather for the crops and peace for the people.”
The King of Duye Country, witnessing heavenly phenomena at the temple built for Chen Yi, hurriedly led civil and military officials to kneel and pray for the nation’s peace and well-being.
The wishes of countless beings converged into Chen Yi’s body. His true body emitted a golden glow, and a halo like that of the sun appeared behind him as his aura rapidly escalated.
A Buddha of the Immortal Emperor Realm and a Buddha of the Divine King Realm are not on the same level.
Bathing in the aspirations of all living beings, the myriad states of the world seemed to unfold before Chen Yi’s eyes.
A little girl whose parents were killed by bandits cried incessantly. As a bandit approached her with a bloody saber, a figure appeared, covered the girl’s eyes, and subdued the bandit with a flick of a finger.
In a drought-stricken countryside, crops withered away. A figure performed rituals to pray, and heavenly dew descended.
A Demon Dragon wreaked havoc, causing suffering to people. Prayer Beads formed the Six-syllable Mantra, suppressing the Demon Dragon.
Under the moonlit lotus pond, the Queen of Yanzhi Nation sat by the edge, gently stirring the water with her jade feet as she looked at the moon and sighed deeply.
In temples, where incense burned endlessly, numerous distressed mortals and low-level cultivators earnestly beseeched him for protection…
“All beings suffer, Amitabha Buddha.”
With a deep sigh from Chen Yi, his words echoed long in the Daoist training ground.
The radiance of Chen Yi’s Buddha light grew even stronger, covering the entire training ground.
“This disciple’s understanding of Buddha’s teachings is indeed peerless; his future achievements are immeasurable.”
“Do we still have geniuses in Mount Taihua Sacred Land?”
“Such a genius, there are at least ten more under the lineage of Longevity.”
“It seems that the Longevity Sect might be the ones fated for this calamity.”
The elders and ancestors of Mount Taihua Sacred Land were sweating profusely.
With the emergence of Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan in Mount Taihua Sacred Land, it was enough to support the prosperity of the Sacred Land for a long time to come.
However, with geniuses continuously emerging from Lu Changsheng’s lineage, their future achievements were unimaginable.
As Chen Yi underwent his Tribulation, Buddhist chants resonated, and endless heavenly thunders descended, threatening destruction.
Using the endless aspirations of all living beings, Chen Yi contended against the Heavenly Tribulation.
The thunder of the Great Dao Gold Thunder exploded, and the gigantic Buddha body that Chen Yi had condensed outside of his body endured the relentless strikes without dimming in the slightest.
The Heavenly Tribulation lasted for seven cycles of seven, forty-nine days in total, before it ended.
Far from weakening, Chen Yi’s aura became even more formidable.
The gigantic Buddha body turned into specks of golden light and dissipated, and Chen Yi appeared no different from a normal person.
[Ding, your eleventh disciple “Chen Yi” has advanced from Immortal Emperor Realm to Divine King Realm, and you have received a disciple advancement reward: “Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner.”]
“My disciple has smoothly stepped into the Divine King Realm.”
Lu Changsheng felt a surge of excitement. After Dantai Meng left, he had another Divine King Realm disciple to bestow treasures upon.
Moreover, with Chen Yi’s breakthrough to a major realm, the system directly rewarded the Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner.
In the Inner World of Lu Changsheng, a Daoist Banner appeared; this banner was in shades of green, adorned with profound totems and ancient texts, bearing some resemblance to the Treasured Item “Plain-Colored Cloud Realm Banner” held by the Lady of Yaochi.
Could it be that this is a set of magical treasures?
Lu Changsheng grew even more excited.
Unexpectedly, the system was so generous this time, rewarding a treasure on the same level as the Treasured Item “Plain-Colored Cloud Realm Banner”!
Lu Changsheng attempted to refine the Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner.
The Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner emitted bursts of white light, hovering in mid-air, resisting Lu Changsheng’s Divine Sense.
Hmm?
Lu Changsheng frowned.
This magical treasure actually resisted being refined.
This was exactly the same as initially with the Human Sovereign Cauldron.
Could it be that the Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner, like the Human Sovereign Cauldron, is a treasure that has birthed a sentient spirit, and the spirit does not wish to be refined by him?
