Capítulo 2441: Chapter 216: Tianyin (Part 2)

“But from a higher perspective, these countless Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds are actually just a single grain of dust… This is the so-called ‘Three Thousand Worlds in One Dust, and eighty thousand springs in half a breath.’”

In the beginning, when he reshaped the Little Cang World Continent, it was also a sudden inspiration. With a Buddhist perspective, he opened up The Four Great Continents.

Even though it was a coincidence, somewhere in the unseen, it also seemed like fate.

True Man Gai heard this and couldn’t help but frown slightly:

“So this is a small thousand world, the Second Realm Sea is a Middle Thousand World, and the First Realm Sea is a Great Thousand World?”

Yan Poluo smiled and said:

“True Man, indeed you understand immediately. For us Buddhist cultivators, we don’t really feel there’s any Realm Sea; it’s just world after world. Our cultivation is to transcend from these worlds, to ascend to the Realm of Extreme Bliss, like rowing a boat on a sea of suffering, only relying on effort to cross.”

True Man Gai seemed pensive.

He had come to this Buddha Realm many times. Although he felt the division of realms here was a bit peculiar, he never asked about it. Now, after hearing Wang Ba’s words, he did sense the subtle differences between Buddhist cultivation methods and those of orthodox cultivators.

As they spoke, Yan Poluo already led the two straight to the centermost small world among these thousand small worlds.

Within it, Buddha’s light filled the skies, the Sanskrit resounded, and the sound of bells and chimes lingered endlessly, filled with compassion and peace.

In this small world, atop the Sumeru Mountain surrounded by The Four Great Continents, the temples overflowed with sandalwood fragrance.

Within the temple, a deep voice already came from afar:

“Amitabha, what brings the True Man to visit me today?”

Upon hearing this, True Man Gai smiled as he introduced to Wang Ba:

“This is the Buddha Tianyin.”

Then he laughed and replied:

“Haha, it’s because Little Friend Taiyi requested it, so I came specially.”

The two of them, led by Yan Poluo, flew straight to the Sumeru Mountain.

As they passed mid-air, Yan Poluo pointed at the sevenfold golden mountains and rivers below Sumeru Mountain, and said:

“This is the ‘Perfume Sea.’ It is unique to this small world, with eight kinds of marvelous merits, including sweetness, coldness, softness, clarity, purity, no stench, no throat harm, and no stomach injury. Cultivators passing through can purify their body and mind, attain happiness from suffering, and also reflect inwardly to strengthen their Dao-heart and generate wisdom. Layman Taiyi hasn’t been here before. If there’s a chance, you can walk downstream and upward along this Perfume Sea to cleanse your body and mind. It is truly a rare treasure land.”

Wang Ba nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Having received such a solemn introduction from Yan Poluo, indeed, such treasure should not be missed.

However, he had another purpose for this journey and was not in a hurry. The three of them then landed before the temple atop Sumeru Mountain.

This temple can be described as ‘piercing through to the heavens, with roots connecting the veins of Sumeru.’

Outside the mountain temple, only steep peaks, strange rocks formed in odd formations, jade grasses, and rare flowers decorated the cliffs.

Scanning his gaze over the temple, he saw the words “Miaojue” inscribed above.

This is the central Buddhist dharma of this small thousand world, with the wondrous Buddhist Law that enlightens the souls within.

The grand hall was majestic, with resplendent light illuminating the temple, the Floating Tower and Youtan Flowers complementing each other, exuding solemnity.

Outside the hall, there was an Eight Treasures Merit Pool, where lotus flowers bloomed inside.

The two climbed the steps, following Yan Poluo, and entered the temple.

Upon entering, Wang Ba felt countless Sanskrit sounds entering his ears, merging with his Primordial Spirit, startling his heart and giving him a sense of profound clarity.

At the same time, he finally saw the legendary Buddha Tianyin, the supreme guardian.

Who was not, as Wang Ba imagined, like a flickering candle in the wind; instead, his visage was full, his eyes bright, lacking the signs of a meat bun or white hair, resembling an ordinary old monk. Yet, his face was broad, ears over shoulders, and his eyes had an unusual quality, one being dark and the other blue-purple, but otherwise normal.

At this moment, he was looking towards Wang Ba, a smile at his lips:

“This must be the disciple of Heavenly Monarch Chao, True Man Taiyi?”

Wang Ba dared not be negligent.

He had met with the four Mahayana figures of the Four Realms. Among them, Xiahou Demon was hidden within the Reclining Buddha, concealing his aura and revealing nothing. However, True Man Gai, Heavenly Monarch Chao, and the current Buddha Tianyin before him gave him the impression that this Buddha Tianyin was even more unfathomable.

Previously, he thought True Man Gai’s words were somewhat exaggerated, but upon meeting Buddha Tianyin, he believed it, and without delay, he bowed:

“Taiyi greets Buddha Tianyin.”

Within the temple’s grand hall, it wasn’t just Buddha Tianyin present. Other monks were seated, each curiously looking at Wang Ba.

The great battle of Cloud Sky Realm had Wang Ba emerging as a prodigious force, his achievements mythical and awe-inspiring. Even the monks here could not remain indifferent; upon seeing Wang Ba in person, they naturally scrutinized him closely.

Buddha Tianyin nodded with a smile, then turned to True Man Gai, asking with curiosity:

“What brings you here, Taoist Friend?”

True Man Gai did not conceal the reason and pointed at Wang Ba, laughing:

“It is he who sought you, not I. He said he learned some Dharma from the Supreme True Buddha but still has many doubts and wishes for your guidance.”

“Supreme True Buddha?”

Upon hearing these words, the monks inside the temple were visibly startled.

Some monks couldn’t help but look at Wang Ba and ask sternly:

“Have you really learned the Dharma of that Demon Buddha?”

“The Demon Buddha is wayward and heretical; isn’t this willingly falling into depravity?”

Unable to help themselves, the monks solemnly questioned Wang Ba.

Wang Ba frowned slightly, and at this moment, Buddha Tianyin softly recited:
