Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 1088 - 686: Buddha Incense Covers Search God, Evil Deeds of Spiritual Mountain Revealed
The life of Search God Realm, whether the local Human Clan or Ten Thousand Spirits, or the foreign Gods and Demons and Cultivators, are all deeply troubled by the countless, at least numbered in tens of thousands, various catastrophes of this realm.
In other worlds, the catastrophic mountain floods and tsunamis, the great Plague illnesses, are commonplace here. Not to mention the heaven-defying disasters like Ascension Dust and Blessing Rain.
But none are as horrifying and disgusting as the [Tarnished Compassion Poison].
Initially, when the outbreak occurred, major forces considered abandoning the Search God Realm altogether if untreatable.
No one expected All Heavens Buddhism to dispatch so many "Medicine Glazed Monks" to detoxify, and indeed, within days, the poison was captured.
Yet this good fortune lasted only for a month.
This day!
The disaster of the poison, tenfold, hundredfold fierce, broke out dramatically.
The major forces and races in Search God Realm sought aid from Spiritual Mountain, yet this time, it seemed even All Heavens Buddhism was powerless.
Even though there were still over ten thousand Medicine Glazed Monks working tirelessly to detoxify.
There was simply not enough time, a mere drop in the bucket.
Within a few hours, these Glazed Monks seemed unable to withstand the fierce poison, their pristine Dharma Bodies beginning to show signs of blemish and putrefaction.
The news from Spiritual Mountain spread across the entire realm.
"Amitabha!"
"This poison is an extreme evil, it has entered the origin of Search God Realm, chipping away at the bones and marrow, the mere ten thousand Glazed Monks cannot resolve it."
"Spiritual Mountain will exert its full strength to save all life, and should it fail, Little Ling Mountain along with the entire Ten Thousand Buddha Tang Country will share the fate of all living beings."
...
The words were beautiful, yet the underlying meaning was brutal and bloody.
For a time, aside from the Tarnished Compassion Poison, panic seeped into the hearts of all beings within Search God Realm like a plague.
And after several days, it transformed into despair.
When the Heavenly Dao Origin attempted to extinguish the world with "Ten Disasters," the inhabitants were indeed desperate, but only temporarily, as the fierce calamity could wipe out all life in a short time.
But the Tarnished Compassion Poison was different; its destructive force was no weaker than the Ten Disasters and its torture was the most terrifying in the world for life.
For a time, the cries and wails of all living beings were unending.
Everywhere one looked, were scenes of misery rarely seen in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.
The local life was as such, with no retreat.
Those Great Abyss Demons and All Heaven Dao Veins, attracted by the [Heavenly Dao Banquet], upon confirming the poison could not be dispelled, began to consider withdrawing.
Of course, those "allies" already linked with Primordial Sect did not do so.
Instead, they sealed away their believers and subordinates who were poisoned, quietly waiting for the next moves of All Heavens Buddhism.
If what "Taixu Master" stated was true.
Saint Monk Golden Cicada should act.
Not waiting long, merely three days after the great calamity broke out.
A terrifying, miserable sigh spread abruptly within Search God Realm.
It was Buddha sound!
Surprisingly emerging from the depths of Nine Netherworld, containing compassion for all beings, a compassion willing to abandon everything.
This sigh seemed to have supreme power, directly resonating with Heavenly Dao.
In that instant, all sentient beings saw the scene deep within the Netherworld:
That place, it was the land of Nine Nether Reincarnation.
[Forbidden Mountain Lord] from All Heaven Dao Veins had constructed it, this Dao vein force was extremely strong, backed by Innate Gods and Demons, aiming to establish a comprehensive reincarnation system in this great world where Dao veins were not thriving. If achieved, it would naturally bring infinite merits and inexhaustible resources.
Initially built from scratch, Nine Nether was chaotic everywhere.
They should have invited a supreme treasure to suppress the fortune of hell, but to save this expense, the Forbidden Mountain Lord decided to seize [Golden Cicada Saint Monk] as a treasure, and then place him deep within Nine Nether, to suppress the earth's fortune and suffer the devouring of ten thousand ghosts.
They calculated Golden Cicada walked the path of merit and could not refuse, thus it truly succeeded.
This moment imprinted deep within the Heart Soul of sentient beings, it was the Dharma Body of Golden Cicada, riddled with holes, devoured by ten thousand ghosts.
One would expect him to retaliate under such treatment, such pains.
Yet he did not, he had no resentment, took no benefit, willing to stay deep within Nine Nether as the "Earth Suppressing Buddha" for so many years.
Until this moment!
Golden Cicada opened his Buddha eyes, joined palms, and sighed:
"Amitabha!"
"This humble monk once vowed, to deplete cultivation, shed blood and flesh, abandon merit, only to aid and save all living beings, now comes the time to fulfill the vow."
"For such evil disaster, one must invite the descent of Ten Thousand Buddhas, and invite the descent of the leader of the Eastern Vaidurya World."
"This realm named Search God, has its own customs and Heavenly Dao, thus ordinary methods cannot invite Ten Thousand Buddhas."
"Yet this humble monk can do it, merely by sacrificing this foul form and modest Dao Heng as a tribute to Gods and Demons."
"Fellow Daoists, do not hastily retreat, nor should the beings of Search God fear excessively, this humble monk is coming."
The words sound verbose, but are in fact Golden Cicada connecting with Heavenly Dao Origin through Buddha sound, heard by all beings within the realm in an instant.
And immediately, a shocking scene unfolded:
Golden Cicada!
This disciple destined to become Buddha Venerable, at the moment the words fell, immediately entered nirvana,
Next, a wisp of ethereal incense rose from the top of his head.
Thin at first, then increasingly dense.
In an instant, a solid and enduring, world-permeating, golden light surging "Buddha Incense Sky Pillar" shot skyward.
Ignited from the depths of Nine Nether, it swiftly pierced the sky, heading straight for outside the realm.
