Chapter 417 - 294: The Appointment of Guanyin, the Great Divine Power Users Beneath Five Finger Mountain
Zhang Fusheng looked at the stunned Celestial Beings and said:
"High Heaven City must be established. Let the Pope behind you, come and talk with me."
"The Pope?"
A Celestial Being hesitated and cautiously spoke:
"Our Great Pope has always been elusive, and in this Chongyang Heaven and Earth, Immortal Gods find it hard to enter..."
Zhang Fusheng patiently waited for him to finish, then spoke:
"Perform the array and ritual, communicate with your Pope, and they will respond."
The Celestial Beings of the various sects looked at each other, and finally, each began to form the array and perform the ritual.
Within a sect, above the Walking Under God, is the elder of Venerate level,
Above that is the great elder and Vice Sect Leader of the Great Power level.
At the top, naturally, is the Pope, all at the level of Great Divine Power User, and Great Divine Power User is the pinnacle that can be reached in the current world—at least on the surface.
In some sense, a Great Divine Power User of the Third Realm of the Divine Path is the strongest on earth.
The reason is simple,
To step into the True Saint level of the Fourth Realm of the Divine Path, one must achieve a Celestial Position to advance,
But Celestial Positions only exist in Different Dimensions,
The few that have drifted into the mundane world can be counted on one hand.
While pondering,
Zhang Fusheng saw the rituals of various sects had begun, with illusionary altars leading to unknown places, communicating with one terrifying being after another,
Even Zhang Fusheng, at this moment, could not help but grow solemn.
Great Divine Power User.
To be honest, even with all methods at hand, facing a Great Divine Power User would still lead to instantaneous demise, with no second possibility.
Even when facing a Great Power, there would be no chance to resist...
After all, a Great Divine Power User, in the old world, would be a True Monarch of the Celestial Court, a Bodhisattva of Ling Mountain!
No matter the era, even in the most prosperous golden ages, they are true great figures.
In the communication through the void altar,
A sense of powerful will perceived something, in the outer vault of heaven, Kong Shentong slightly moved his expression, sensing the ritual directed at him,
The information conveyed through the ritual was simple, just a few words.
"World Venerate Tathagata wishes to see the Pope."
Kong Shentong quietly glanced, quietly sending a strand of will, restricted to below the Divine Spirit, to descend upon Chongyang Heaven and Earth through the ritual.
Meanwhile, at the peak of the false Kunlun.
On the six illusionary altars, emanated a vast brightness, emerging were six blurry figures, their faces shrouded in faint darkness.
The Popes of the sects, each has an extremely illustrious identity on the surface and naturally do not reveal their true appearance.
The six figures gradually became clear,
Behind the Pope of the Celestial Principle Sect is a vast sky, the Pope of the Ancient Saint Sect is Kong Shentong, also shrouded;
The Western Sect Pope seems to be wearing a Daoist robe, a large banner with blood flowing beside him; while the Eastern Sect Pope is unexpectedly a woman, barefoot, dressed in a rainbow robe.
As for the Great Pope of the Mandala Sect and Pantheon,
The former is surrounded by a ’Living Purgatory’—composed of hundreds of millions of naked people, forming a Living Purgatory,
The latter appears ordinary, merely enveloped in a deep, impenetrable darkness.
The manifestation of six wills simultaneously opened their eyes, instantly understanding the causes and effects.
At their level, when doubt arises in their hearts, unless involving great mysteries and high-positioned objects,
The world would naturally provide them answers.
"World Venerate Tathagata..." the Pope of the Mandala Sect spoke in a deep voice, the surrounding Living Purgatory turning,
From within, arose the wailing voices of millions.
Pausing briefly, He continued:
"A True Buddha descending, suspected to be from the old world? Yet you have not truly revived... World Venerate Tathagata, for what matter do you wish to see us?"
Countless Celestial Beings were prostrated at this moment,
Even Hu Zhongli and others couldn’t help but tremble, forced to kneel, while only the [World Venerate] and a shivering young girl stood on the mountaintop.
Lin Changle.
She actually withstood the overwhelming pressure of these six immensely powerful beings.
Zhang Fusheng glanced at her, amazed by the power conferred by the World Venerate—he himself had not yet spent fortynine days under the Bodhi Tree, had not truly become the Tathagata!
Gathering his thoughts,
Zhang Fusheng looked at those six unknown terrifying wills, spoke indifferently:
"Since you have arrived, you naturally should know the causes and effects, why ask questions? I have summoned you, merely for the matter of ’High Heaven City’.
Summoning?
One or two Great Popes squinted slightly, but said nothing; the World Venerate before them was mysterious and the noise of his descent too grand, the world celebrated.
Moreover...
A Pope glanced at the hut with a half-human, half-snake inside, heart palpitating, unexpectedly giving birth to a feeling of prostration and kneeling!
This was somewhat horrifying.
Zhang Fusheng continued speaking to himself:
"The Federation is the dynasty of the human world, and this dynasty has come to decay, of no benefit to the land and people."
Pausing, he glanced at the Pope of the Mandala Sect:
"As you said, I have not truly fully awakened, I am a Buddha, but not the Buddha."
"My virtues and meritorious deeds have not yet reached Perfection, entering the Sea of Suffering, I am also contending to cross, far from Universal Salvation."
"Therefore, I only wish to first establish a Clean Land for the human world—this is this world, this is the soon-to-be High Heaven City."
The Pope of the Mandala Sect asked in a firm voice:
"Benefits."
The World Venerate compassionately said:
"All sects can enter High Heaven City, will be permitted to exist, no longer needing to hide and endure, open and clear."
At this moment, a Pope from the Western Sect spoke:
