Chapter 374: Chapter 393: Salvation for all living beings
Originally, Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva thought that Jiang Li failed to meet the requirements of the heritage, so no heritage was willing to notice him.
Now she knew that these inheritances were clearly waiting for Jiang Li to summon and select them.
“Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm… Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm… Sentient Beings’… Could it be that the true meaning of the Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm is to enlighten all sentient beings?”
“Is Human Emperor Jiang, who cares for the world, guards the Nine States, defends against the invasion of the Heavenly Demons, makes the Nine States peaceful, reduces the disputes, actually practising enlightening all sentient beings?”
Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva woke up from her dream and finally understood the meaning of the Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm.
Whether it’s Buddhism or the successive Human Emperors, along with many other cultivators, they all have the heart to enlighten all sentient beings.
But having the heart is not enough, the ability is also needed.
And Jiang Li possesses both, and he’s doing quite well.
The Nine States is now full of vitality, and Jiang Li has made great contributions.
Master Wu Zhi was the first to notice the changes in the Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm and then informed all Arhats and Bodhisattvas to investigate the Secret Realm.
Seeing this groundbreaking scene, they were all as surprised as Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva.
“I apologize for visiting the Secret Realm unexpectedly, and hope Master Wu Zhi understands.”
“Master Jiang shouldn’t say that.”
Master Wu Zhi tried to ask Jiang Li to donate these inheritances to Buddhism, and Jiang Li agreed without hesitation, which made Master Wu Zhi very happy and thankful.
“This secret realm should have been left by the Buddha.” Brahma Tower suddenly remarked.
Everyone turned their heads and stared at the Brahma Tower, they had never heard Brahma Tower mention it before.
“I may have misremembered. After all, my memory about what happened before I gained sentience is vague.” Brahma Tower did not mention that he actually remembers that he was an Immortal Artifact refined by the Buddha.
However, let’s not talk further about this uncertain matter.
Although the Brahma Tower’s tone was unsure, everyone felt that the Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm might have truly been left by the Buddha.
Because the inheritances of the Sentient Beings’ Secret Realm were too many, it seemed that all the Buddha’s inheritances from the Immortal Realm could be found here, including even the heritage of the Buddha Shakyamuni.
The amount of inheritances held by Buddhism multiplied instantly, causing Master Wu Zhi, usually calm, to have an unstoppable smile on his face for several days.
However, having the inheritances doesn’t mean they can be freely cultivated. Buddhism emphasizes temperament. If one’s temperament is not yet ready, cultivating the inheritances will only delay one’s advancement.
Bai Hongtu plans to secretly ask Wu Zhi for a copy of his divine message.
Defeating Jiang Li is just a matter of time.
After separating from Bai Hongtu, Jiang Li settled the mission rewards.
[Rewards half jiazi Buddhist cultivation, please accept]
Jiang Li held the so-called half-jiazi cultivation in his hand, slightly sensing the energy it contained.
“It can promote someone from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to the Divinity Transformation Stage. If there is no rush to upgrade, it can solidify the cultivation stage and elevate to the peak of the Nascent Soul.”
Without asking, Jiang Li knew that the half-jiazi cultivator was not for the present him.
“Useless rewards.” Jiang Li dispersed the energy. Even a single root of a hair holds more energy than this.
[Reward Immortal Artifact Golden Lock Armor, please accept]
An extremely ornamental piece of golden armor appeared in Jiang Li’s hand.
[Golden Lock Armor: Wearing this armor can withstand ten full-force attacks from cultivators at the same stage]
“Very impressive.” Jiang Li exclaimed. So far, he hasn’t encountered anything that could withstand his full-force attack.
This includes the initial emperor.
Jiang Li put on the Lock Armor and hit his chest lightly with the smallest force. There was a large gap in the Armor.
“What a shoddy product. I knew the stuff from the system couldn’t be trusted.”
[Reward “Establishment of the Three Pure Land”]
[Establishment of the Three Pure Land: This is a great Divine Skills not passed on by the Dao Sect. It’s very difficult to cultivate and can temporarily bifurcate two avatars of the same cultivation status as oneself, enhancing combat effectiveness to an exceptional extent]
Jiang Li sneered at the reward. This thing is of no use to him. He had already learned the “Establishment of the Three Pure Land”. When the Spiritual Treasure reached sentience, he had used this Divine Skills.
Even Bai Hongtu could learn divine skills, and Jiang Li naturally could as well.
Bai Hongtu often created avatars to play poker, which seemed like playing, but actually helped him extend the existence time of his avatars and increase his control over them.
At least that’s how Bai Hongtu explained it himself.
Jiang Li could use Establishment of the Three Pure Land repeatedly, creating two more avatars from the two avatars he split off, resulting in four avatars in total.
In short, the three rewards didn’t help Jiang Li at all.
“Is the Human Emperor free?”
It was Sword Monarch who contacted him: “Just in time, what’s the matter?”
“I found a strange thing in the void. Since Human Emperor is knowledgeable and experienced, why don’t you come and have a look?”
“How did you get into the void, and how could there be anything in the void?” Jiang Li was confused. The Void is very dangerous for those at the Transcendence Tribulation Stage as their bodies cannot withstand the prolonged cutting of the void’s turbulence.
If even the body of the Transcendence Tribulation Stage can’t withstand it, what could possibly appear in the void?
“I felt that there is nothing in the Nine States world that can further enhance my Sword Dao, so I went into the void to hone my Sword Intent. As for what I found, why don’t Human Emperor come and see for himself, or else you’ll think I’m fooling you.”
Jiang Li nodded. Sword Monarch really was bold, risking his life for the sake of getting stronger.
Following Sword Monarch’s instructions, Jiang Li sliced through space and arrived in the void.
When he found Sword Monarch, his clothes had long been reduced to dust by the void, and his body was covered in wounds, but his Sword Intent did, indeed, improve.
“What did you find?”
As soon as Jiang Li asked, he noticed the object behind Sword Monarch.
“It’s a gigantic statue made up of many human bones, but only half of the statue remains now.”
“Based on my judgement, the masters of these bones had a cultivation level at most at the Divinity Transformation Stage during their lifetime.”
“What surprised me was, Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators can’t survive in the void, how could their bones not be obliterated by the void?”
Jiang Li remained silent, his face solemn.
The statue was none other than The Respected God-hidden!
Ten years ago, he took Ji Kongkong to enter the secret place of the God-hidden Cult. At the deepest part of the secret place was this Respected God-hidden statue.
Subsequently, the secret place exploded, and everything in it was scattered into the void. Jiang Li remembered clearly that only this Respected God-hidden statue was not annihilated by the void.
But at that time Jiang Li was only occupied with protecting Ji Kongkong and rushing back to the Nine States, so he didn’t have time to check on the Respected God-hidden statue’s situation.
Unexpectedly, they met again after so long a time, the Respected God-hidden statue.
“Does Human Emperor know what this is?” Sword Monarch was curious, seeing that only half of the statue of the Respected God-hidden now remained. He saw Jiang Li’s expression and felt that he knew something.
“A nefarious artifact.”
Jiang Li didn’t elaborate, as he too didn’t know why this statue was not affected by the void.
“This item is very durable. I tried cutting it with full force, and it didn’t even leave a mark.”
Jiang Li tried to snap off a bit and easily snapped off the foot of the statue.
Jiang Li commented, “Quite durable indeed.”
Sword Monarch:
To avoid discouraging Sword Monarch, Jiang Li explained, “It’s really quite hard. Although I didn’t use much force, the strength I put in was enough to tear a Heavenly Demon to pieces.”
