The Tathāgata Must Fail

Chapter 420: The Brand New Jade Seal


The door vanished.

A crystal-clear Phoenix pattern burst into brilliant silver light, like a small sun blossoming from the depths of the Wanling diagram.

With its appearance, the entire Wanling diagram underwent a transformation, becoming auspiciously vibrant.

The small Phoenix was merging with the Heavenly Dao.

Countless wills were transmitted into her mind.

Nostalgia, joy, sorrow, everything imprinted deep within her heart.

"Ah, so this is what it is..."

The small Phoenix suddenly remembered.

She had felt this sensation before but had always forgotten it.

This feeling, it's the sensation of being connected with all beings.

This is the feeling of existence here.

This is the pride of the Heavenly Emperor that she had forgotten.

Far-off memories flickered before her eyes.

She once had kin, friends, and many beloved people.

But those people all fell before her eyes, disappearing without a trace.

"It's my fault..."

The small Phoenix thought, with endless Immortal Texts swirling around, a tear slid down from the corner of her eye.

Had she had the courage of Sun Wukong from the start, would the outcome be different now?

If she could break the shackles of the world, could she have taken those people away?

The small Phoenix floated in the world of Immortal Texts.

It was a world where anything was possible, countless lights and shadows twinkling within this space.

She seemed to see the possibilities of a distant future.

"Your Majesty."

Within those infinite possibilities, suddenly appeared a young man's image: "Have you found the Dao yet?"

The small Phoenix widened her eyes.

How, how could this be!

Why would she see him, why would she see him within the Heavenly Dao.

"Your Majesty."

Another person's image appeared.

One by one, many people appeared before her, all with smiling faces.

Just like when the world shattered, their smiles.

Within the infinite possibilities, she saw her subjects.

Why would those who had disappeared appear here?

Wanling Heavenly Dao, could there still be possibilities she didn't know about?

The small Phoenix reached out to touch the image, but those people disappeared like bubbles.

In her heart, she felt a profound sense of loss.

However, immediately after, the small Phoenix made up her mind.

"Sun Wukong, I want to make a pact with you."

Suddenly, the small Phoenix's voice emanated from within the Wanling diagram.

Sun Wukong looked at the Phoenix inscribed on the Wanling diagram: "What pact?"

"I will give you my power and transform into your shadow."

The small Phoenix said, "You must help me guard the Three Realms and retrieve my subjects."

She didn't believe that all she saw were illusions.

Even though the possibilities were slight, even perhaps wishful thinking, she still harbored hope.

If Sun Wukong could create possibilities, could it be that one day in the distant future... he could bring those who vanished back to life?

For this possibility, the small Phoenix was willing to pay any price.

Even if it meant sacrificing millions of years of freedom.

Sun Wukong pondered for a moment, then nodded: "I agree."

"Thank you."

The small Phoenix no longer hesitated and joyfully accepted the Heavenly Dao.

The two became one.

From Heavenly Palace to Huaguo Mountain, from Huaguo Mountain to the Underworld, all Wanling diagrams lit up in an instant.

On every Wanling diagram, an additional Phoenix pattern appeared.

"I'll help you all."

Across the Four Great Continents, countless people heard the girl's voice.

"From now on, I will oversee the Wanling Heavenly Dao."

People's disordered powers returned to them once more, more grandiose than before.

"I will govern spells, using absolute reason and absolute fairness to represent the will of Wanling."

"What's happening?"

The black flames on the people lying on the ground disappeared.

Ao Luan, helped up by a Rakshasa, noticed the black flames gradually disappearing from his body, and looked up to the sky.

"Little Phoenix."

She perceived the owner of that voice, feeling relieved but also somewhat melancholic.

Although not Sun Wukong, ultimately someone had taken on this responsibility.

In the sky, the Wanling diagram emitted a great light and then began to vanish.

Streams of silver light cascaded down from the diagram, falling upon Sun Wukong, that strong power, as if draping him in a cloak shimmering with starlight.

Sun Wukong looked melancholically at this scene, then with a gesture, the Heavenly Emperor Jade Seal slowly rose.

It radiated dazzlingly, its luminous glow visible to all.

"The Jade Seal."

Buddha looked over: "It's a bit strange, what's happened?"

The Jade Emperor didn't answer, frowning as he watched the scene.

The Jade Seal flickered in the sky, unfamiliar radiance gradually forming around it.

"Not good."

The Jade Emperor's expression turned somewhat pale: "The Jade Seal is absorbing the Heavenly Dao."

Buddha was taken aback: "What will happen?"

"It will become a new Jade Seal."

The Jade Emperor answered.

A new Jade Seal, fused with the Wanling Heavenly Dao, was being born.

"We can't let it take shape."

The Jade Emperor said.

Once the Jade Seal took form, the rules of the Three Realms would undergo immense changes.

No one knew what would happen.

The Jade Emperor didn't oppose Sun Wukong taking charge of the Three Realms, but he didn't want to see the Jade Seal become uncontrollable.

"Imperial Brother, stop it."

The Jade Emperor shouted: "It's too soon."
