Secret Buyer

The Buddha did not speak; he picked a flower and smiled.

The Other Shore World was once again enveloped by the Buddha’s Light, and no one from the outside could glimpse its scene.

The outside world fell into a deathly silence.

For a long, long time.

Outside the ruins of Jin City, the Ancestor of Land Immortals gently exhaled a foul breath, closed his eyes, and spoke in a low voice:

"Perhaps our cooperation will change."

The Great Power named Guo Linzhu stood in a daze at this moment. As the deputy director from the Investigation Bureau, she suddenly awoke, drenched in cold sweat without knowing when it started.

She nodded bitterly, murmuring:

"Turning the entire world upside down, suppressing and killing eighty-one deities with one palm, enlightening forty-five venerates with a single word..."

"Such power at this level..."

Guo Linzhu took a deep breath and continued with difficulty:

"Senior, even if we lure the World Venerate out, can we really hunt him down?"

The Ancestor of Land Immortals’ expression was extremely somber, and he spoke in a low voice:

"A great tide has just swept through the vast void, did you notice?"

Guo Linzhu was slightly taken aback:

"Of course, the waves crashing on the shore, the great tide impacting the Different Dimension and the real universe... why did you suddenly bring this up?"

But the Ancestor’s expression grew even darker as he lowered his eyelids, speaking word by word:

"That anomaly was caused by this Zhang Fusheng."

"It is he who is proving the Fruit Position, it is he who is ascending to godhood."

Guo Linzhu was first stunned, then cried out in shock:

"How is this possible??"

The two venerates beside her were also terrified. Ascension to godhood... That World-Honored One Tathagata, that Blessed Life Buddha, has just ascended to godhood???

The Ancestor of Land Immortals silently nodded, sighing softly:

"Though it sounds unbelievable, it is indeed a fact. This child entered the Different Dimension, and he was meditating and ascending to godhood in my own dojo."

After a pause, he continued:

"Unfortunately, at that time, my true self was visiting a friend, and by the time I returned to the dojo, it was already a step too late, and he had fled back to the world, to the human realm."

Guo Linzhu and the other two venerates looked at each other and then all suddenly understood.

She murmured:

"No wonder the World-Honored One Tathagata has not appeared, as he is clearly ascending to godhood — and once he ascends to godhood, how could he possess such unbelievable power?"

The Ancestor of Land Immortals was first silent and then spoke with a faint voice:

"Perhaps, in the old world, he really was the Buddha?"

The three of them fell silent.

It seems... this might indeed be possible.

After a long time.

Guo Linzhu asked in a low voice:

"Then our cooperation?"

The Ancestor of Land Immortals replied:

"As usual, but with some changes, a little alteration."

Saying this, he turned his head, gazed quietly at this exceptionally beautiful great power woman, and spoke calmly:

"Give me the special supreme treasure you have prepared, and I will take it away, returning it to the Different Dimension."

"No." Guo Linzhu reflexively replied, but heard the descendant body of the Ancestor of Land Immortals say lightly:

"Is it a special supreme treasure, or is it to hunt down the World-Honored One Tathagata, or rather — Blessed Life Buddha?"

"The people behind you should make a decision."

Guo Linzhu fell silent.

After a moment, she asked in a low voice:

"You mean this object can lure the World Venerate into the Different Dimension?"

"Yes."

The Ancestor of Land Immortals nodded quietly:

"I saw this supreme treasure several decades ago, once held by the plump Buddha from the Ling Mountain faction."

After a pause, he continued:

"Coincidentally, I once heard a celestial venerate-level supreme existence mention this object, saying it is crucial for the Ling Mountain faction, for Buddhists."

Guo Linzhu was lost in thought, gazing down at the supreme treasure in her hands:

"You want to take it back to the dojo?"

"Naturally."

The Ancestor of Land Immortals nodded coldly:

"If Zhang Fusheng wants to retrieve this treasure, he must come personally to my Five Mansions Temple."

After another pause, a faint smile appeared on his face as he murmured:

"The most crucial thing is that this supreme treasure is one of the few that can be destroyed... though it will take some time, this is precisely the reason that the Blessed Life Buddha cannot help but come."

"No matter how bizarre or powerful his methods are, he is ultimately just a venerate."

As he spoke, a look of indifference appeared on the face of the Ancestor of Land Immortals:

"As long as he reappears in my world at the Five Mansions Temple, killing him would be as easy as turning over my hand."

Guo Linzhu hesitated for a moment and asked:

"But, will he really go?"

"He will."

The Ancestor of Land Immortals nodded, staring at the special supreme treasure in the hands of the Female Immortal—a speck of dust.

Within the speck of dust, however, lay an entire grand world.

"That Celestial Venerate said this world is called the Central Pusaka World, the root of Ling Mountain, the root of Buddhism."

"How could he sit idly by and watch this Pusaka World be destroyed, merging into the vast void?"

After a pause, the Ancestor raised his eyelids, gazing calmly at the Other Shore World shrouded in infinite light:

"Discuss with the presence behind you, and after making a decision, offer this special supreme treasure to me through a sacrificial method."

"As for now...."

His eyes were bright:

"I should personally visit this Blessed Life Buddha, World-Honored Tathagata."

.........

In the Other Shore World.

Forty-five Arhats sat at the edge of the world, motionless, all in deep meditation, constantly reciting the names of the World-Honored Tathagata, Blessed Life Buddha.

Zhang Fusheng sat quietly under the Bodhi Tree. The Stone Arhat, Stone Vajra, and the nine Golden Crows had once again returned to their Divine Realm.

At this moment, the only one standing beside him was Lin Changle.

"World Venerate." Lin Changle whispered.

Zhang Fusheng nodded slightly, his expression solemn yet with a faint smile on his face.

He looked back, gazing at the intact Other Shore World, even he himself couldn’t help but be amazed.

Reversing all things.

Is this the Fuli True Man Fruit Position?

The Fuli Chapter of the Primordial Ancient Scripture consists of seven Chapters, each corresponding to a level of Fruit Position,

The Human Path Chapter brought him the Fuli Dharma Body, while the True Man Chapter brought the Fuli True Man Fruit Position.

And, along with the Fruit Position came terrifying divine techniques.

"Taiwei..."

Zhang Fusheng quietly comprehended, the divine technique of reversing everything, known as Taiwei,

This divine technique does not directly interfere with time,

Instead, it grants Zhang Fusheng the ability to grasp the cause and effect of all things—for example, particles.

The most basic particles that make up the world.

Taiwei allows Zhang Fusheng to perceive basic particles, even completely grasp them. These basic particles are the root of all things,

The universe, life, all things, souls...

Even time.

Are composed of these basic particles, and these particles are called Taiwei.

Zhang Fusheng gently exhaled a breath of clear air rich with Buddhist charm.

Just now, he used the divine technique of Taiwei, simultaneously grasping the cause and effect of every Taiwei particle in the Other Shore World,

Then, tracing the recent state of all particles, and through the divine technique, reversing these particles along the cause and effect——

Resulting in the entire Other Shore World reversing along.

The collapsed celestial vault, the torn earth, the dead lifeforms, the dissipated souls...

Particles reassembled, and all things were as they were in the beginning.

"I may have ascended to godhood, but I have not truly secured the Tathagata Celestial Position or the Fuli True Man Fruit Position."

Zhang Fusheng quietly sensed, the Venerate, the realm of Evident Sacredness, requires capturing worlds in the great void, refining them into Buddha Countries or Blessed Lands,

This is very difficult, not easy, requiring the suppression of a whole world’s beings. A small world is manageable, but if one chooses to refine a complete universe?

As hard as ascending to the sky.

For myself, however, regarding the cultivation of the Fuli True Man Fruit Position, it is not about refining a Buddha Country or Blessed Land,

But about transforming into the Great Spirit in a certain universe.

The so-called Great Spirit is the fundamental source of a universe, turning the will of all beings in an entire universe into a single thought of oneself,

Then, one can simultaneously experience the lives of countless beings, their past, present, and future, learn all they have learned,

And when one cultivates, it is equivalent to all beings in the universe helping oneself in cultivation.

This is the cultivation technique of the Fuli True Man Fruit Position, this is the cultivation technique of the Fuli Chapter, terrifying beyond imagination.

Extremely difficult.

But likewise, once one succeeds in becoming the Great Spirit...

A hint of a smile appeared on Zhang Fusheng’s face, just as he was about to enter the great void and head to a certain universe or ancient world,

He suddenly felt something, looked up.

Outside the Ghost Gate, stood a figure.

The Ancestor of Land Immortals.

He was knocking on the door.
