Secret Buyer

"Wasn’t the Investigation Bureau cooperating with the Ancestor of Land Immortals?"

Kong Shentong’s pupils shrank, while the Old Bull shrouded in mist perked up its ears.

The former calmly replied:

"I’m not aware of this matter, after all, I resigned from the position of Chief of the Investigation Bureau many years ago."

The white-haired elder chuckled, not revealing anything more, simply saying:

"How could hundreds of Venerates fail to hunt down that returning World Venerate? If that’s not enough, there’s the Ancestor of Land Immortals."

"And if that’s still not enough..."

He lowered his eyes in silence, his gaze resting on the grand bridge to the Other Shore World.

Over a hundred Divine Spirits have stepped onto the bridge, approaching Ghost Gate!

"First elevate High Heaven City," the white-haired elder issued a decree indifferently, towering above, exceeding the great sun, higher than the Celestial Vault.

Forty-five Venerable Gods responded.

Continuing forward, going forward, about to pass through Ghost Gate, about to plunge into thick mist, to enter the Other Shore World!

The gods were incredibly solemn.

One by one, powerful gazes focused here, Su Qiansuan, Golden Armored Creatures, the Capital...

Nearing Ghost Gate.

The Other Shore World suddenly swayed, shrouded and hindering all gazes with a canopy, suddenly dispersing.

The mist also dispersed.

All things within the realm were once again clearly visible.

And there was one person, quietly standing behind Ghost Gate.

"Is it... her?" Sun Shiyi whispered under Five Finger Mountain, then spoke: "I know this person."

He explained to the deities from the Different Dimension:

"This person was conferred by the World-Honored One Buddha ten days ago — conferred as [Guanyin]."

"And before the conferment, she was merely a Martial Artist, just twenty years old."

Ten Great Divine Power Users were moved, a martial artist ten days ago now dared to stand alone before the barrier, facing over a hundred deities?

Indeed a great courage, but only ’courage’.

In ten days, even if a True Saint or Celestial Venerate were to personally intervene, at most they could forge a Venerate, requiring immense cost.

One great divine power user shook his head:

"An ant tries to shake a tree, a praying mantis blocks a carriage...."

As the voice fell.

Lin Changle stood at Ghost Gate, hands clasped, softly chanting:

"According to the World Venerate’s decree, I am here to advise thrice, everyone, if you retreat, it can still be considered as turning back, to see the Other Shore."

"Turn back? Other Shore?" a Venerate murmured, then tentatively struck out, fist raised to heavenly light, tearing through the void!

Lin Changle appeared solemn and majestic, only sighed, a great sun halo rising behind her head, and a ten thousand-foot Bodhi tree appearing behind her!

"Compassion, compassion."

She softly chanted, her voice becoming heavenly sound:

"This place cannot be crossed."

The fist light illuminating miles of land surprisingly stopped in front of her.

Old Master in Chang’an Town witnessed this scene, his expression changed, exclaiming:

"Ten Holy Scriptures, Saint’s Golden Body!"

At the same time, eighty-one Earth Deities advanced with slaughter.

The True Dragon traveled the clouds, Mountain Monarch glared angrily, beings transformed into deities, each using their own divine techniques, the earth roared at this moment!

Eighty-one Earth Deities were eighty-one slaughter techniques.

Lin Changle faced them alone.

Her heart raced wildly, but her expression remained solemn, holding the Nine-Ring Scepter, draped in brocade robes, then struck the ground with the scepter!

She transformed into Guanyin, exercising the power granted by the World Venerate, using the Supreme Treasure given by the World Venerate.

"The first persuasion."

The Female Immortal whispered, the Nine-Ring Scepter and brocade robes stirred up a curtain of light, vast, reflecting the illusion of Ling Mountain!

Eighty-one slaughter techniques struck, colliding with the light curtain, emitting intense rumbling sounds!

The light curtain distorted but did not shatter.

The brocade robes, wearing them one does not fall into reincarnation, the Nine-Ring Scepter, holding it one does not suffer harm.

This is the true Supreme Treasure bestowed by [Shakyamuni Tathagata].

"Supreme Treasure?"

A Venerate from a certain province praised, a golden scissors manifesting in his hand, he cried:

"Go!"

The golden scissors transformed into two illusory Divine Flood Dragons, tearing through the void, forcibly cutting open the light curtain!

Over a hundred Venerates surged forward, terrifying momentum shaking, if not for the [Heaven and Earth Chessboard] suppressing, if not for the earthly celestial array guarding,

the entire Other Shore World would likely have already collapsed!

High Heaven City, Chang’an Town, wilderness...

Countless followers, countless people, countless Celestial Humans.

At this moment, silent.

They watched, seeing the Female Immortal claiming to be Guanyin, being blasted back ten steps, each step resounding throughout the Other Shore World,

The Female Immortal coughed blood, even the Saint’s Golden Body cracked, over a hundred Venerates already stepped into the Other Shore World!

"Second persuasion!"

Lin Changle’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit were exhausted, yet she still cried out, using the celestial array left by the World Venerate,

There was starlight bursting from the earth, turning into torrents, rushing forth!

Some Venerates were hit directly by the torrents, their divine bodies began to crack and shatter, but immediately, those torrents were suppressed by more deities!

Lin Changle made a move, a shout:

"Thunder!"

The Celestial Vault thundered, great thunder tribulation descended, a Venerate severely injured amidst the thunderlight, coughing blood!

But still the same words.

The gap was too large.

Several or even a dozen Venerates injured wasn’t sufficient against the might of over a hundred, the Venerates from forty-five provinces still dreaded,

But those eighty-one Earth Deities were fearless and charged forward!

Even with brocade robes and Nine-Ring Scepter protection, ten thousand-foot Bodhi and great sun halo as anchor,

Lin Changle was still covered in wounds, the Saint’s Golden Body was broken, she was dying!

From afar, Sun Shiyi watched this scene, sighed:

"She won’t survive."

Amidst illusory scenery, a Great Divine Power User sitting within the Different Dimension spoke in a low voice:

"But to be honest, this woman is astonishing, I can sense she has not truly ascended to godhood, yet she briefly intercepted over a hundred Venerates...."

Pausing, this Great Divine Power User pondered and then added:
