Longevity Strange Immortal-Chapter 599 - 31: Ten Thousand Banners Strike Down Yama (Part 3)

Within the realm of Nirvana, it has reached a level of extravagance.

The ground is covered with resplendent temples, where Arhats and Bodhisattvas reside.

Arhats can walk the streets, while the believers can only stay in remote alleys. Any act that displeases an Arhat will face severe punishment.

Even if an Arhat loses control and kills due to mutation, the believers must not show any anger.

Li Mo scanned Nirvana briefly. During its peak, the Buddhist Sect occupied a hundred thousand miles, but now only a ten-mile patch of land remains.

Seventy-five Arhats are scattered across Nirvana.

There are four Bodhisattvas, with temples in the center of Nirvana, rarely appearing in the world, presumably watching over the No-Life Mother.

"Back then, Tian Changwen and the others ascended with the No-Life Mother and established their foundation, so why aren’t they seen in the temples?"

With Maitreya Buddha hovering above, Li Mo dared not recklessly release his Divine Sense. The Cave God’s Eye inevitably has its limitations, causing his brows to furrow tightly.

Suddenly, he paused his steps.

Li Mo looked toward the street corner and saw a thin figure bending over, scrubbing the wall.

The old figure appeared insane, muttering scriptures incessantly, with over a dozen extra limbs besides his arms,

though the additional hands and feet seemed to be broken by a heavy blow, hanging motionless.

"Master Han..."

A flash of killing intent crossed Li Mo’s eyes.

Han Cai, seemingly in sync, lifted his head and noticed Li Mo’s back, revealing a look of deep contemplation, as if pondering a faintly familiar feeling.

Li Mo continued his steps, observing Nirvana from an outsider’s perspective.

He noticed former members of the Creation Sect one by one.

Huang Mu lay begging in the corner, his legs broken; Jiang Xi was using his Lifebound Flying Sword to trim the grass and wood in the flowerbeds; Old Earth True Monarch was responsible for cleansing the dust for passing Arhats...

Of course, there were also those not so destitute, like Futu Hermit engaged in merchant activities.

Though merchants have low status in Nirvana, they at least manage to survive, using spare money to help fellow cultivators recover from injuries.

"The Creation Sect has five hundred and forty people left, and Tian Changwen is nowhere to be found."

Li Mo spent ten days witnessing the diverse aspects of Nirvana.

The believers are entirely servants offering themselves to the Arhats, doing the most humble tasks, even worse off than mortals.

They are divided into three classes.

The lowest is called [Nuns].

The devotion of Nuns is weak, unable to provide the Arhats with incense energy.

Most cultivators of the Creation Sect are not devout enough, and without Tian Changwen’s presence, they cannot integrate into Nirvana at all.

The middle class is called [Listeners].

Listeners, equivalent to the common people of Nirvana, are considered valuable resources by the Arhats, mainly focusing on incense burning and scripture chanting.

The upper class is called [Sha Men].

They generally serve as temple priests in the temples, allowed to access the Taoist inheritance of the Arhat fruit position.

After thousands of years of cultivation, Sha Men have a chance to achieve Arhat status, but this is the limit; obtaining the Bodhisattva Fruit Position in the Buddhist Sect is far more difficult than in the Taoist Sect.

"Tian Changwen might have died and the Dao Disappears thousands of years ago, otherwise the Creation Sect wouldn’t be in such a state, lacking a pivotal figure to guide them, resulting in being constrained at every step."

"But it’s alright."

Li Mo headed toward the No-Life Mother with a cold smile and said.

"Not a single person from the Creation Sect will be lost; if even mere resurrection is impossible, why would I dare to reverse the future?"

"I came to Nirvana, not to deal with the remnants of the old order of the Buddhist Sect, but to establish a force to contend with the Master of Time." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
