Eternal Sacred King-Chapter 3118 - : Infinite Merit
Chapter 3118: Infinite Merit
Translator: Legge
Ming Zhen bowed with his head lowered and pressed his palms together, chanting a sutra softly.
The sutra was not long and only had 59 words and 14 sentences. However, those who heard it could not help but feel happy, as though they had eliminated all their worries without any resentment or hatred.
Under the Ginseng Fruit Tree, the countless vengeful spirits buried in a million kilometers of territory were also liberated and reborn into paradise.
In midair, the phantoms of infants vaguely appeared. They looked at Ming Zhen with pure and clear eyes with a hint of gratitude and a childish smile appeared on their young faces once more.
“This young monk’s Dharmic insights are profound and he’s benevolent. He’s only a Perfected Spirit and yet, such a phenomenon is created when he recites the Rebirth Mantra.”
Emperor North Kun praised.
Emperor South Peng shook his head gently. “There are too many babies buried here. Billions of souls condensed with endless grievances. This young monk’s cultivation realm is insufficient. He definitely won’ t be able to withstand it if he wants to exorcise the billions of souls.”
In reality, that was indeed the case.
As Ming Zhen chanted continuously, his expression turned even paler.
If he ignored these dead souls and vengeful spirits and left some of them with too much resentment in the world, they might form various Yin Spirits and malevolent ghosts that wreaked havoc on the human world.
If their souls returned to the world and entered reincarnation, they would at least have a chance to be reborn.
The toll was too great for Ming Zhen if he wanted to purify the billions of spirits. His Essence Spirit became weaker and his body swayed slightly.
However, he still had no intention of stopping and his gaze was firm.
There seemed to be an unshakable persistence and belief in him.
That was his determination to not become a Buddha until Hell was empty!
That was the belief that all living beings could be purified and saved!
In Tianhuang Mainland, even a peerless genius like Monk Darning would avoid Ming Zhen unconsciously and lament, “The Enraged Diamond Gaze is inferior to Bodhisattva’s humble brow. I’ve finally seen it today.”
Ming Zhen’s incredible understanding of Buddhism was evident.
“Namo Amitabhaya…”
Right then, another voice sounded. It was also the sutra of the Rebirth Mantra. Although it was a little sluggish, it was recited perfectly.
Tao Yao was at the side. When he heard Ming Zhen recite the Buddhist mantra, he felt emotional and chanted along.
Tao Yao did not know Buddhism and had never read Buddhist scriptures.
He only had a sincere heart and hoped that these dead souls would be freed and have a good home.
Nian Qi was touched and recited it as well.
More and more people helped Ming Zhen recite the sutra and share the pressure. freewebnøvel.com
Everyone merely whispered softly. However, those words converged continuously and finally erupted with endless power of faith. Sanskrit reverberated and Buddhas appeared, purging the billions of souls!
After an unknown period of time, everyone’s chanting gradually faded and the surrounding grievances had long dissipated.
Initially, the skies above White Firmament Palace were shrouded in dark clouds all year round and it was difficult to see the light of day.
At that moment, above the territory of White Firmament Palace for a million kilometers, the sky was clear and Buddhist light shone, bringing a hint of warmth to the land.
Ming Zhen still had his palms pressed together and his eyes closed. His body was bathed in a golden glow and halos appeared behind his head with a solemn expression, as though he was about to soar into the skies the next moment!
“This is…”
When everyone sensed Ming Zhen’s condition, their expressions changed.
He was about to break through!
Before this battle, Ming Zhen was only a Hollow Nether Perfected Spirit.
Even if he broke through, he would only be at the Paradise Void realm. However, at that moment, the power fluctuation emitted from Ming Zhen’s body was clearly meant to advance straight to the Grotto-heaven realm!
That was equivalent to breaking through two realms in a row. Furthermore, one of them was a major realm!
Emperor North Kun lamented, “The act of purifying billions of souls can be said to be filled with infinite merit. This young monk is now granted this fortuitous encounter thanks to the infinite merit.”
“The concept of merit is illusory and has always been untraceable.”
Emperor South Peng shookhis head gently and smiled. “I thinkhe has merely accumulated all the way to this point and things are now falling into place naturally.”
Boom!
Right then, another gigantic power fluctuation sounded from the crowd!
A Dao Fruit that shone with a resplendent light slowly floated out of Book Immortal Yun Zhu’s consciousness. Its power rose rapidly and reached its peak before exploding with a bang. The surrounding void collapsed and a Grotto-heaven vaguely appeared!
Yun Zhu was breaking through and was about to advance to the Grotto-heaven realm!
Splash!
Right then, the sound of a tsunami surged from Nian Qi’s body as well. Her blood qi surged and her entire body emitted a blinding golden light. A Dao Fruit appeared slowly and was accumulating strength continuously.
Nian Qi was also preparing and could advance to the Grotto-heaven realm at any moment!
A violent power fluctuation sounded from the crowd.
Instantly, many cultivators sensed something and broke through.
Emperor North Kun looked at Emperor South Peng and asked with a smile, “Do you still think that the concept of merit is illusory?”
Emperor South Peng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Most of the cultivators who broke through had cultivated for a long time and accumulated their foundations. For example, Book Immortal Yun Zhu was stuck at the Paradise Void realm and merely lacked an opportunity.
This time round, under Ming Zhen’s lead, everyone worked together to ferry billions of souls and send endless merit.
Merit was indeed illusory, but it had an indescribable power.
With the addition of merit, many people obtained an opportunity to break through!
For someone like Su Zimo who had just broken through to the major Grotto-heaven realm not long ago, even if he obtained some merits, his cultivation realm would not fluctuate at all.
With the protection of the Emperor experts, it was the safest for everyone to break through here without any interference.
Not only that, people like Yun Zhu, Ming Zhen and Nian Qi were all breaking through to the Grotto-heaven realm. Although their cultivation techniques were different, their Great Daos were interlinked.
They could gain something from observing each other.
When this matter was over, Su Zimo would bring everyone to the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain to resolve the final grudges.
Back then, King Jin and Immortal King Yan Yang of the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain and Immortal King Qing Yang of Divine Firmament Palace had joined forces with the Sect Master of the Academy to attempt to kill him!
King Jin even had a blood feud with Feng Cantian!
Su Zimo pondered for a moment before looking at Tao Yao beside him and asking with his spirit consciousness, “How has Xie Qingcheng of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom been all these years?”
King Jin and Immortal King Qing Yang were easy to deal with. However, Immortal King Yan Yang was the father of Xie Qingcheng and Princess Scarlet Rainbow after all.
Su Zimo had some ties with Xie Qingcheng and Princess Scarlet Rainbow. If he wanted to take revenge on Immortal King Yan Yang, he had to consider the two of them.
At the mention of that, Tao Yao could not bear it. “That Xie Qingcheng is so pitiful. Young Master, ever since something happened to you, his status as the Prince of Spirit Cloud County was abolished by his father.”
Su Zimo frowned slightly.
Back then, he was the one who helped Xie Qingcheng obtain the status of the Prince of Spirit Cloud County.
Unexpectedly, after something happened to him, Immortal King Yan Yang immediately turned hostile and abolished Xie Qingcheng’s status as the county prince.
Tao Yao continued, “Later on, Xie Qingcheng went to question Immortal King Yan Yang about your matter. While he questioned, he rebutted and infuriated Immortal King Yan Yang who then crippled his cultivation and sent him to prison!”
Su Zimo’s expression darkened.
He had long heard that because Xie Qingcheng’s mother was from the lower worlds, she did not have a good relationship with Immortal King Yan Yang and was never valued.
To think that Immortal King Yan Yang would be so heartless!
He became so ruthless just because of a few words of rebuttal!
In the heart of Immortal King Yan Yang, he had probably never treated Xie Qingcheng as his son.
Otherwise, he would definitely not be so heartless!
