Chapter 548 - 462 Sun Wukong’s Proposal
When establishing the Calamity of Measurement for the Journey to the West, the rule was set that if one returned to Heaven Beyond Heavens, they could no longer interfere with matters of the Three Realms, thus eliminating the possibility for Saints to descend again in the future.
This unavoidably worried Zhunti about Jieyin and Buddhism.
He was also concerned that if Ksitigarbha’s identity remained undisclosed, it would bring greater calamity to the Three Realms.
Upon calming down, Zhunti wasted no time and went directly to the Purple Cloud Palace to see Daoist Ancestor Hongjun.
"Honorable Master, your disciple Zhunti has come to visit!"
In front of the Purple Cloud Palace, as Zhunti gazed upon the majestic palace, a sense of humility naturally arose within him.
One must understand that the current Zhunti was a Saint, not merely a Quasi-Saint like a lower realm incarnation, but that feeling of humility persisted.
Hongjun was the first Saint of the Primordial Continent and their Honorable Master; without Hongjun, they could never have achieved saintliness.
"Come in."
The gates of the Purple Cloud Palace slowly opened, and the voice of Daoist Ancestor Hongjun emanated from within.
Zhunti entered the Purple Cloud Palace directly, a place the Saints frequented often, so naturally, he required no guidance; soon, he found Daoist Ancestor Hongjun in meditation.
