"I shall set off now to see if I can make ands..."
Wang Ba's decisive attitude also inspired Zhang Bokai.
Zhang Bokai dared not delay and quickly said:
"True Man, within the realm, there is a long-distance Teleportation Array leading to the Supre True Buddha. Although there is a need to make a transfer midway, it is still much faster. However, to prevent detection by those demon monks near the Supre True Buddha's location, no Teleportation Array was set up, so there is a section that requires traveling by oneself..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba did not decline.
He had no mark of direct access to the Supre True Buddha, and indeed it would take considerable ti to journey there.
Zhang Bokai then returned to the realm and quickly retrieved a set of Teleportation Arrays, which he threw out from within a Formation.
The Formation outside the Cloud Sky Realm was laid out by several Mahayana individuals working together; it allows exit but not entry, so this was the only thod he could use.
Wang Ba didn't mind, exchanged a few words with Yin Tianzhi, and then stepped into the Teleportation Array without hesitation.
...
In the vast Realm Sea, not too far from Duanhai Cliff, lies a void.
A colossal, boundless Reclining Buddha lies calmly with closed eyes in the void, seemingly asleep but not asleep.
Its full fingers pinching a lotus flower, with pink petals seemingly adorned with dew.
At the center of the lotus flower, however, is a Buddha Kingdom.
Within the Buddha Kingdom, there are temples, palaces, houses, and underground caves...
At this mont, countless Sanskrit chants resonate over the largest temple.
Buddha's light shines everywhere.
Solemn, sacred, pure, unsullied.
Countless monks dressed in white robes, with serious expressions, bowing heads, and softly chanting Sanskrit hymns.
Sandalwood incense lingers, as if a grand ritual is underway.
Arhats and Bodhisattvas around have concealed their gigantic Dharma bodies, appearing as insignificant as ordinary monks, sitting cross-legged around the temple, gently rolling Buddhist beads in their hands, muttering softly.
Behind them, more monks, devout n and won, prostrate themselves in devotion, reciting Buddhist Scriptures, seemingly waiting for sothing...
And outside the Reclining Buddha.
In the distant void.
Silhouettes of cultivators erge from the void, quietly observing everything happening.
"Finally, he will ascend!"
In the void, draped in a white robe with white hair, Heavenly Monarch Chao sits cross-legged on the back of a lion, his eyes hinting at coldness, speaking with a noticeable undertone of anger that cannot be suppressed.
His robe and white hair billow incessantly.
The lion beneath him senses its master's anger, baring its bloody mouth.
"Taoist Friend Chao, you must control your mind. Buddhism is extrely sensitive to the Three Poisons; do not let them notice."
Beside him, True Man Gai, also with white hair and simple attire, sits peacefully, gently stroking a sword energy in his hand that seems both tangible and intangible, eyes fixed on the sword energy, softly reminding him.
The Three Poisons are greed, anger, and ignorance.
Anger is one of them.
Heavenly Monarch Chao squinted slightly at these words, saying nothing, as his billowing robe and white hair gradually cald.
Upon sensing the calming of Heavenly Monarch Chao's spirit, True Man Gai nodded slightly, then turned his head, looking at a beautifully dressed female Cultivator and a figure shrouded in black smoke beside him, and spoke in a low voice:
"Lady Hua, Taoist Friend Jiao, as we previously discussed, when 'he' ascends, at the mont the Buddha's son receives empowernt, we shall act together..."
Before he could finish.
The beautiful female Cultivator interjected with a smile:
"There's no need to say more, brother, I'll follow your lead."
She stared at True Man Gai, eyes steady, and the affection in her eyes was evident to others.
True Man Gai cleared his throat, maintaining his usual expression, then looked at the figure shrouded in black smoke, and smiled:
"Taoist Friend Jiao..."
From within the black smoke ca a slightly stilted voice:
"Do not worry... I will cooperate with you."
Upon hearing this, True Man Gai nodded slightly.
His gaze then swept over to his side, where Bai Lechan sat cross-legged with closed eyes, looking as handso as an immortal, along with the surrounding late-stage and middle-stage Great Cultivators, and finally dispelled his last trace of unease.
He said solemnly:
"The safety of the Realm Sea is in our hands, everyone..."
"Success or failure hinges on this effort!"
