Inside the Great Zen Temple, tonight the Buddha Light flickered in waves, and all the monks were seated cross-legged in the square, quietly chanting Buddhist scriptures.
Countless golden Swastika Runes slowly rose, coalescing in the sky into a giant Swastika, continuously rotating.
Meanwhile, in the quiet room belonging to the abbot, Xinyuan and Shi Jue sat facing each other, a tiny, barely noticeable crack opened above them, pure light casting a faint sheen from this crack.
Xinyuan held the Basic Seal, capturing the pure light which continuously seeped into Shi Jue's body.
As the light was absorbed, Shi Jue's aura grew increasingly vigorous, a Brahma Wheel emerged behind him, evolving the Four Holy Truths into the Sea of Suffering, transcending the mundane world.
"Boom——"
A faint explosion sounded, indicating that Shi Jue successfully advanced to Divine Communication through the power of the Pure Land, his Qi Mechanism subtly changed, the Three Elements Return to One, entering the metamorphic stage from mundane to divine.
The light continued unabated, Shi Jue's body also radiated brightly, his hands constantly formed seals, and his True Qi started to ascend to a new level.
This transformation lasted a whole hour. When Shi Jue's Qi Mechanism finally stabilized, he opened his eyes, the color of seven-colored glaze flashed through them, sharing the same smile as Xinyuan across from him.
At this moment, the Buddha Light outside gradually faded, the Brahma sound slowly lowered until it disappeared, and the crack within the quiet room also closed and vanished.
"Master." Shi Jue pressed his palms together in salute to Xinyuan.
"What a pity, though I've subdued Wula, he still refuses to assist this poor monk in opening the Pure Land, otherwise we could have opened a larger space." Xinyuan said regretfully.
The method to open the Pure Land lies not in strength but in heart. However, the stronger a person is, the more intense their sensitivity to the Pure Land. If enough Supreme beings sensed it with their hearts together, the Pure Land could likely be penetrated.
But unfortunately, the prerequisite of sensing it requires sufficient Buddhist Power, and currently, in Central Plains Buddhism, only Xinyuan and Wula are Supreme beings.
"You've received the Brahma Light of the Pure Land, and can now begin cultivating Buddha-Self Supreme Skill. In three days, you shall lead the monks to conquer the various temples." Xinyuan instructed.
Big fish are left until the Buddha Bathing Festival to be captured in one net, but this doesn't mean ignoring the small fish. Before the Buddha Bathing Festival, at least half the small fish must enter the net.
"Yes, disciple understands."

That evening, at the original site of the Golden Tent within the Golden Wolf Han Court, four figures quietly approached.
"Those Golden Wolf Remnants launched a rebellion at Zhunge'er River, and Mo Guming, a Demon Sect warrior stationed nearby, has already gone to suppress it. This is our chance."
The Dragon King said this, suddenly somewhat sighing, "It seems it is no longer called Zhunge'er River, now it should be called Xiayu River, and even the land beneath our feet is now Northern Zhou's Meng Province, this is the aftermath of the fall of a nation and ruin of a home."
Long ago, our ancestors came to the Western Regions just like these Golden Wolf Remnants, even today, we are still remnants."
Fellow wanderers from the ends of the earth, the Peacock Remnant and those Golden Wolf Remnants really aren't much different. Perhaps the only divergence is the Golden Wolf Remnants will soon face extinction, while the Peacock Remnants are about to revive.
"Enough idle talk."
Jingsheng Tian unleashed Dark Energy, piercing the skulls of soldiers guarding around the Golden Tent with needle-thin Dark Energy, killing them instantly.
The strongest among these remaining soldiers were only of the Divine Origin Realm, incapable of blocking a Divinity Realm warrior's assassination. With the grassland being largely pacified, only Mo Guming among the stationed warriors was of the Divinity Realm, the Dragon King and others had chosen their timing well.
"Let's go, I sense the aura of the Dragon Vein. The Golden Wolf Han Court does have capable individuals, despite being barbarians, they know to build the Golden Tent on a crucial point of the Dragon Vein."
The Dragon King chuckled lightly, taking the lead forward.
Though they are all remnants, the Peacock Remnant with their long history have a pride in comparing themselves to the supreme nation of Central Plains. In the eyes of Central Plains people, the Golden Wolf Han Court was seen as barbarians, as were they in the eyes of the Peacock Remnant.
Back then, that Barbarian Chief, the Golden Wolf Khan arrogantly charged into Nalanda Temple, the Dragon King and the Eight Tribes bore a long-standing grudge against him.
The four of them walked as if leisurely strolling, under the Dragon King's lead, arriving within the Golden Tent.
"Jingsheng Tian."
Upon hearing the call, Jingsheng Tian stepped forward, his pale fingers changing seals, golden Qi Force formed a densely packed Brahma Array Map in the air, slowly descending to the ground.
The center of the Array Map seemed like a hole had opened, golden vortex constantly spun, a sacred Qi Mechanism emanating from within.
"The grassland people are unfamiliar with applying the Dragon Vein, the Dragon Summoning Array Map has already seamlessly communicated with the Dragon Vein." Jingsheng Tian maintained the seal, continuously injecting True Qi.
"Very good." The Dragon King signaled Mie Tian.
"Hehehe······"
This sinister man emitted a strange laugh, lightly raised his right hand, and softly called, "Come, Po Suji, come out, darling~"
A nearly transparent White Snake emerged from Muhuloka's sleeve, its color akin to crystal, but upon closer inspection, it revealed a faint azure liquid flowing within.
This was not a real White Snake, nor was it a living creature. It was a brand new poison refined from the corpse and venom of Po Suji, one of the pets of Shiva among the Three-faced Gods, through the combined effort of Mie Tian and Muhuloka.
A toxin resembling a living creature that could even corrode Divine Thought, only its refiners, Muhuloka, alongside Mie Tian, could manipulate this active poison.
"Tsk tsk," watching the White Snake slither on the ground, Muhuloka showed a regretful expression, "There's only one Po Suji in this world, even if Mie Tian and I joined forces again, we couldn't refine this active poison."
"Save your breath, quickly let Po Suji enter the Dragon Vein."
Jingsheng Tian's eyes betrayed a hint of fear looking at the White Snake. If this White Snake went out of control, at least one person present would meet their end.
Even a Divinity Realm warrior, if contaminated by Po Suji Poison, would meet demise. A Supreme being suffering this poison would struggle to remain unharmed.
If it weren't for the Northern Zhou's rapid rise, Nalanda Temple surely wouldn't want to employ this poison. Truly, it's a unique supreme poison in this world.
"Alright."
Muhuloka sighed lightly, issuing a sibilant sound like a snake's voice from his mouth, guiding the active poison as it slowly slithered into the Array Map.
Finally, at the center of the Array Map, the White Snake suddenly darted, diving into the golden vortex center, leading to an unknown place.
"Depart immediately."
As the White Snake entered the vortex, the four no longer retained their earlier leisure, directly broke through the Golden Tent, flying swiftly southwest.
The poison of Po Suji can contaminate even the invisible Earth Qi, and spread rapidly, sure to cause great commotion. If they didn't leave now, they feared they wouldn't make it back to the Western Regions.
The grassland territory is extremely vast, larger than a province of Northern Zhou. This place is the core heartland of the grassland, returning to the Western Regions from here is no closer than coming from Northern Zhou to the Western Regions.
