He returned to the underground Lake Island, in front of the old monk’s wooden carving.
“You expected this, didn’t you?”
Lin Yan’s gaze landed on Wang Yue’s wooden face. His gaze seemed to penetrate this lifelike but stiff face.
“The Chaotic Fog emerged from the Netherworld River by the side of the passageway. The corpses that died in the Netherworld River all came back to life. There were even mutations that made them stronger and stranger…
“You must know why, don’t you?”
In the silence, Lin Yan’s voice seemed to be swallowed by the darkness.
Suddenly, a golden light lit up again. Thousands of dazzling arcs of light bloomed from the old monk’s fingertip. In the golden light, the dazzling palace illusion appeared again.
“Amitabha.”
The old monk’s phantom slowly condensed. However, this time, be it the distant palace or the old monk nearby, they were much dimmer.
Lin Yan’s gaze seemed to be covered in a layer of shadow as he looked at the old monk quietly, waiting for his reply.
“The God’s Domain is pervasive and impervious to everything. Not to mention an empty passageway, even if one hides in the lake or even underground, they will ultimately be enveloped by the God’s Domain.
“As for those corpses, they were infected by the God’s Domain. They didn’t revive from the dead, but became vessels that gave birth to new God’s Favored.
“They can still wander in the outside world now, but when they completely stabilize and successfully transform, they will no longer leave the God’s Domain. They are forever a part of the God’s Domain.”
God’s Favored?
A part of the God’s Domain…
Lin Yan’s pupils constricted again. “You really can see what’s happening outside!”
“It’s not that magical. I’m just borrowing the power of the formation.”
Lin Yan was silent as he kept thinking about what he had just said.
“The Chaotic Fog is pervasive? Could it be that even if this place is covered by a deep water layer, the Chaotic Fog will still invade?”
“The Chaotic Fog isn’t real fog. It can invade the lake and spread with the lake water. It won’t be long. In two to three days at most, this place will be filled with Chaotic Fog.”
Lin Yan was silent. The Chaotic Fog contained extremely deep mysteries. It could not be viewed with common sense.
Perhaps, using domain to describe it was indeed more accurate than fog.
God’s Domain, God’s Favored…
Did gods really exist in this world?
“Master, is the Chaotic Fog targeting you?”
Wang Yue’s illusion was obviously silent for a moment. “You’re right.”
“What are you doing? Or what did you do? If you stop, can you make the Chaotic Fog retreat again?”
“It can’t be stopped… The God’s Domain has already targeted this place. Even if we run to the ends of the world, there’s no way to hide.”
There was no joy or sadness in Wang Yue’s eyes as he looked into the distance. Lin Yan didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he felt that his eyes were looking down at the entire lake.
“What can we do? Could it be that you can only wait for death here?
“You said before that you wanted my help. What exactly is it?”
“Young friend, calm down. This matter is complicated. I still have to speak slowly…”
Lin Yan could only sigh helplessly. “Then why don’t you tell me what you were doing in this underground world first?”
Wang Yue closed his eyes and said Amitabha. Then, he suddenly opened his eyes. There seemed to be a monstrous sharpness in his eyes. At this moment, he was no longer an old monk. He was like a general commanding a million soldiers, challenging an unknown and unbelievable enemy.
His voice was solemn and dignified. “We… violated the domain of God and tried to seize the power of God!
“In the past, we believed in Buddha and worshiped the Holy Spirit Buddha, but now…
“We want to create a Buddha that belongs to us!”
Lin Yan frowned. “Isn’t Buddha an illusory faith? 1 don’t understand what you mean…”
“Human strength is sometimes poor, and the divine power of Buddha is infinite.
“Humans are weak and insignificant. In this world, they’re just like ants, like dust. They’re swept along by the waves and can’t control their lives.
“Only by seizing the power of gods and Buddhas and creating a Buddha that belongs to humans can we seek a trace of dignity in this world…”
Lin Yan heard him clearly. He was talking about dignity, and there was only a trace of dignity…
Wang Yue raised his hand and pointed at the land below.
“Do you know what this island below is?”
Lin Yan thought of the squirming and widened eyes on the island. “Is this island alive?”
“That’s not all…” Wang Yue’s eyes were deep. He told the shocking truth in an extremely calm tone. “This island… is Buddha! The Buddha that Fan Nation believes in!”
Buddha? The island… was Buddha?!
That huge eye, that strange outline…
Lin Yan was shocked and finally came to a realization. “The Buddha you believe in isn’t illusory. It’s a real creature!”
Wang Yue’s voice seemed to penetrate endless history. “A thousand years ago, when the Fan Nation was in its early stages, the God’s Domain covered the sky. The space for humans to live was extremely narrow, and the entire human race was only a small tribe of hundreds of people.
“Until one day, a vast sixteen-armed Holy Buddha walked out of the fog!
“He helped the ancestors disperse the fog and open up a huge territory.
“From then on, humans reproduced and prospered. Ancient Fan Nation was also established and prospered for hundreds of years.
“Because of this, we considered the 16-armed Holy Buddha as the faith of Fan Nation.. Fan Nation also became a Buddhist country…
