Chapter 129 – Zhao Assumes Power Over the Peak
TL: Sponsored chapter (1/1). Thank you!
“Minghan Bodhisattva’s 300,000 year term defending the Shaoyang Realm has hereby expired, and will now be permitted to return to Sahā Heaven. For the next 300,000 years, the one billion Buddhist domains of the Shaoyang Realm will be entrusted to the care of the Bodhisattva of Prajñā.”
“By Lord Buddha’s dharmic decree, this Bodhisattva of Prajñā will comply. On behalf of Lord Buddha, this one will bring enlightenment to the beings of the Shaoyang Realm.”
The massive, radiant halo floating behind the head of a man wearing a white Buddhist robe grew ever brighter as he received the dharmic decree. Innumerable rays of golden light blossomed forth, transforming into an inexhaustible Xiantian dharmic energy which assimilated into the massive halo floating behind the Bodhisattva of Prajñā’s head.
The countless beings in the Three Realms of the Golden Crow all felt something at that moment. The constant, ever-existent presence of the Minghan Bodhisattva was gone, replaced by that of the Bodhisattva of Prajñā.
After a short while, the golden dharmic decree disappeared. The resplendent glow of the aura surrounding the Bodhisattva of Prajñā’s body grew brighter. Every word and action of his produced mystical Sanskrit sounds, giving rise to a rare, delicate perfume with every gesture. The title of Shaoyang Bodhisattva had already been conferred upon his body.
However, Bodhisattva of Prajñā did not immediately head towards the Three Realms of the Golden Crow. Instead, he lightly flicked his sleeves, causing the twelve-petaled lotus platform by his side to dissipate. He said, “This one is much obliged to Amitābha for issuing this decree. I will bring these venerable ones to the Shaoyang Realm with me.”
Amitābha cupped his hands respectfully and bowed, sparing no further words. His body gradually faded away.
As one of the arhats who served at Lord Buddha’s side, Amitābha’s cultivation was only at the Ariya rank, but many Bodhisattvas treated him with great respect.
In the Nine Serenities Realm, near the Human Path of Reincarnation, a twelve-petaled lotus platform appeared seemingly out of nowhere. Golden rays of light moved and scattered as the lotus platform transformed into a humanoid figure that stood at the edge of the vortex of the Human Path. Its facial features were blurry and indistinct, but its aura was rife with an endless dignity.
A young man in a profoundly black satin robe and a red and gold crown promptly appeared next to it. He looked at the golden figure and said, “May I inquire which Bodhisattva from the Sahā Heaven you are?”
The incarnation of Bodhisattva of Prajñā’s lotus platform shook its head and said, “Emperor Fengdu, I am just here to borrow the Human Path of Reincarnation once.”
After a while, the incarnations of the several Grandmasters of the Nine Serenities Realm appeared nearby, watching the golden figure.
At the fingertips of the incarnation of the lotus platform, a cyan mote of light appeared, the divine light within glowing dimly in a restrained, understated manner. There was an extremely dignified and ancient aura leaking out from within.
After throwing the cyan-colored true soul into the black and white vortex of the Human Path, the incarnation of the lotus platform said, “Thank you for this matter, Emperor Fengdu.”
Golden rays of light moved and scattered once more as the humanoid figure returned to its form as a twelve-petaled lotus platform. Divine, mystical sounds echoed out, and it faded away without a trace.
“Lord Emperor, that person… was way too overbearing!” the Grandmaster of Moonphase exclaimed to the man with the red and gold crown, his brows furrowing deeply.
“Lord Emperor, if I didn’t see incorrectly, that was the Bodhisattva of Prajñā, from the Shaoyang Realm of the Three Realms of the Golden Crow,” the Grandmaster of Rotation said, gazing into the massive vortex that was the Human Path of Reincarnation. “Was the purpose of Bodhisattva of Prajñā’s visit to our Nine Serenities Realm just to toss in a single true soul? Then which supreme being from the Sahā Heaven was reincarnated just now?”
The man with the red and gold crown shook his head. “The influence of our Nine Serenities Realm is weak. Among the Xiantian beings, only I, as the Emperor of Fengdu City, have a level of talent that can compare to the Bodhisattvas. The Bodhisattvas of the Great Sun Buddhist World all look down on us, and it is only rightfully so.” He also gazed into the all-encompassing black and white vortex as he continued, “Prajñā’s incarnation was protected by his dharmic force, so if I tried to forcefully probe it, the results would not be favorable to say the least. It would fare well for us to give Prajñā face in this matter and not meddle in this any further.”
“Understood, Lord Emperor.”
The incarnations of the various Grandmasters all dissipated one after the other until only the Grandmaster of Rotation remained. Before his figure disappeared as well, he looked down at the several tens of thousands of ghost soldiers and generals below. A black mote of light appeared in his hands, which he proceeded to toss out.
The black mote of light grew countless times larger, scattering endless light and darkness between heaven and earth. All of the ghost soldiers and generals, regardless of the rank, had their memories of what happened just now completely erased.
In Dawn Creek City, only Divine General Tianrui was immune to his own ancestor’s magic, as someone who had the Grandmaster of Rotation’s bloodline. He had seen the scene take place from far off in Dawn Creek City with his own eyes, and it remained firmly implanted in his memories.
… …
Back at Wenyuan Mountain, on Cangyun Peak…
“Senior Martial Brother Zhao, the Realm Master of the Fa Territory heard that you assumed control of Cangyun Peak, and dispatched men to send you four taels of Snow Mountain Spiritual Tea in congratulations. The people from the Fa Territory are here, and have already disembarked from the Realm-Crossing Wooden Boat. They have been waiting for a long time in the hall already.”
Zhao Xingchang nodded his head. He didn’t even move, continuing to bask in the pleasure of the gentle back massage he was receiving. “Let them in then,” he said with a snort.
He was surrounded by several beauties, each of them with cultivations that made them different from mortals even without cosmetic products. Their sultry figures and beautiful visages seemed to brighten up the room just by existing.
“As you command, Senior Martial Brother Zhao,” Qin Gang said, his gaze unwavering as if he couldn’t see the women. He cupped his hands and left the large hall.
In the hall below, a black-clothed disciple said, “Senior Martial Brother Zhao’s prestige is truly broad and deep. Even these people in the Mortal Secret Realms have heard of Senior Martial Brother Zhao’s reputation and glory.”
Zhao Xingchang seemed to be extremely pleased by these words. He pulled over one of the Cleansed Meridians stage women and placed her on his lap. Reaching his hand into her pink chiffon dress, he began to fondle and grope her wantonly.
A short moment later, that woman in the pink chiffon dress let out an erotic moan, her fair complexion blossoming a bright red. Her tender body seemed to melt into Zhao Xingchang’s hands. Dew-kissed tears moistened the edge of her reddened eyes, drawing an adorable, pity-evoking figure.
The disciples in the hall below turned a blind eye to this entire scene, acting as if they had neither seen nor heard anything.
“Respectful greetings to Martial Uncle Zhao. On behalf of our ancestor, I, Wei Xiong, congratulate Martial Uncle for assuming power over Cangyun Peak!” A voice rang out after two people entered the hall. It was Qin Gang, who had returned, bringing in the people from the Fa Territory.
Wei Xiong’s behavior was shrewd. He had called out assertively and respectfully from the afar, where it was difficult to even make out his figure.
Zhao Xingchang nodded and replied, “You may dispense with the formalities. Back when Senior Martial Brother Li was still here, I do have some recollection of Realm Master Wei of the Fa Territory. Although this Realm Master was at the Dao Foundation stage, he seemed to have the ability to make sound judgments, and was quite the discreet personage. Senior Martial Brother Li spoke highly of him on multiple occasions.”
The Senior Martial Brother Li that he spoke of in a venerating tone was Li Daoming.
Zhao Xingchang was the foremost henchman of Li Daoming, who had been in charge of Cangyun Peak. In the past, he was that white-robed disciple who had humiliated Chu Tianhe.
One of the three elders of Affairs Hall, Elder Li was an almighty half-step Primordial Spirit stage powerhouse. He held a tremendous level of authority in his hands and possessed a truly unimaginable amount of power in the sect.
As his direct nephew, Li Daoming ruled over Cangyun Peak. The position had just been a stepping stone to him, and now he had been selected to go to the main branch of Affairs Hall for an important position.
That inevitably left the office managing Cangyun Peak vacant. It was an extremely important position that had the privilege of making first contact with the exceptional disciples of the 27 Mortal Secret Realms. Many ambitious people greatly coveted this position.
However, with a simple jade slip, Li Daoming was able to directly pass this seat of power onto his lackey, Zhao Xingchang.
Experiencing such a sudden rise to power, Zhao Xingchang was deeply grateful to Li Daoming. He wouldn’t tolerate anyone speaking poorly of his ‘Senior Martial Brother Li’.
Wei Xiong laughed agreeably and said, “Not at all, not at all. We don’t deserve Martial Uncle Li’s praise. On behalf of my ancestor, I would like to extend our gratitude to Martial Uncle Li and Martial Uncle Zhao for your compliments.”
He took out a storage pouch and pulled out a wooden box from within. Maintaining his etiquette, he walked up to Zhao Xingchang and said respectfully, “My ancestor would like to convey his congratulations to Senior Martial Brother Zhao on assuming authority over Cangyun Peak. Our Fa Territory would like to offer 4 taels of Snow Mountain Spirit Tea to honor this occasion.”
