Life span plundered, I became a detective and achieved immortality

The Sumeru Dharma Realm Pure Land is located in the eastern part of the universe. Like the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, it is also not within the boundaries of the 108 Immortal Kingdoms.

The Shenxiao Immortal Court has a vast territory, and most of the universe is under its rule. The 108 Immortal Kingdoms are only part of the territory under the jurisdiction of the Shenxiao Immortal Court, and a very small part at that.

At this time, the Pure Land of Sumeru Dharma Realm was peaceful and radiated a tranquil and powerful Buddhist atmosphere. In the center of the Pure Land, the sacred Mount Sumeru was who knows how many dao years high, deep in the chaotic void. Temples were scattered on the mountain, and the golden Buddha statues were solemn and majestic. The chanting of believers rose one after another, echoing in the entire Pure Land for a long time, adding a bit of sacredness and solemnity to this holy place.

On the top of Mount Xumi, a vast divine palace stands there, majestic and magnificent, with brilliant divine light, illuminating the entire Sumeru Pure Land.

The Infinite Sumeru Palace is the place of practice of the ancient Sumeru Buddha, the founder of the Sumeru Dharma Realm Pure Land, and is also the core of the entire Sumeru Dharma Realm Pure Land.

In front of the palace gate, two golden arhats exuding the aura of a thousand Dao kings stood quietly like two immortal sculptures that had never changed. Their eyes were firm, like the most loyal guards guarding the Wuliang Xumi Palace.

"Amitabha."

Suddenly, a loud Buddhist chant resounded from the top of Mount Xumi, breaking the peace and tranquility.

The next second...

The void before the Infinite Xumi Palace twisted, forming a space-time portal ten thousand feet high. A colossal Buddha stepped out from it. He stood a thousand feet tall, quite sturdy, bare-chested, and draped in a bright yellow cassock that fluttered in the wind. Faint Buddhist chants could be heard. In his hand, he held a string of black Buddhist beads, each one round and shimmering with a mysterious luster. A radiant Buddha light shone around him, like a blazing sun, emitting a soft yet powerful light.

"See the Supreme Dharma, the Ancient Buddha!"

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two golden arhats. When the relationship between the two pure lands was relatively harmonious before, there were more visits. However, in the past ten thousand chaotic eras, with the constant conflicts between the two major forces, it has been rare for Buddhas from the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss to come to their Pure Land of Mount Sumeru, especially in the past three thousand chaotic eras, not a single Buddha from the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss has set foot on Mount Sumeru. However, they still bowed respectfully.

No matter how they compete secretly, the three Buddhist Pure Lands appear to be as close as a family on the surface.

The Supreme Dharma Buddha nodded slightly, looked at the two golden-bodied Arhats with a gentle gaze, and said, "No need for formalities, both of you. I have come this time to see Senior Brother Xumi on an important matter, so please let me know."

The golden arhat on the left hesitated for a moment, then replied respectfully, "The ancient Buddha of the Supreme Dharma, the Patriarch is in seclusion and has not yet emerged. I will go and inform you, please wait."

After saying this, the golden arhat flashed and turned into a golden light, disappearing into the palace gate.

The ancient Buddha of the Supreme Dharma stood with his hands behind his back, waiting quietly.

He casually looked around. The chaotic energy on the top of Mount Xumi was as dense as substance, the five thousand great principles were clearly visible, and an atmosphere of peace and tranquility filled the air, which calmed his anxious and slightly impetuous mood a little.

Not long after, the golden-bodied Arhat who had gone to report returned and said respectfully, "Supreme Dharma, the ancient Buddha, the Patriarch invites you. Please follow me."

The ancient Buddha of the Supreme Dharma nodded slightly and followed the golden-bodied Arhat into the Infinite Sumeru Palace.

The palace walls are engraved with ancient scriptures and mysterious runes. Each rune flickers with a faint light, as if telling the long history and profound heritage of the Sumeru Pure Land.

Walking along the long palace road, every step you take can make you clearly feel the powerful and restrained Buddhist power around you, as if you are in the ocean of Buddhist teachings.

After passing through several palace gates, they arrived at a spacious hall. Its doors were open, and a soft golden light filled the air. The ancient Xumi Buddha sat upon a massive golden lotus in the center of the hall, shrouded in a halo and a majestic presence.

The Supreme Dharma Ancient Buddha stepped into the hall, clasped his hands together, bowed respectfully, and said, "Brother Xumi, it's been a long time since we last met. How have you been lately?"

The ancient Buddha of Xumi opened his eyes slightly, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then he smiled gently and said, "Brother Miaofa, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect you to visit us so suddenly today. What's the important matter?"

The Supreme Dharma Ancient Buddha's expression became solemn, and he bowed again, saying, "Brother, to be honest, my Pure Land of Bliss and Light has indeed encountered difficulties..."

Soon, the Ancient Buddha of the Supreme Dharma briefly recounted how the Void Light Venerable King Buddha, Prajna Void Wisdom Buddha and other Buddhas were suppressed by a mysterious force.

"Ten million years ago, I, Senior Brother Guangming, and the other two worked together to deduce the whereabouts of Junior Brother Prajna and the others, but to no avail. Behind that mysterious force, there's likely a Perfect Dao King, obscuring the secrets of cause and effect. I'm here hoping Senior Brother Xumi can lend a hand. Together, we can deduce and locate Junior Brother Prajna and the others."

Upon hearing this, the ancient Buddha of Xumi frowned slightly, with a solemn look on his face.

After a moment's silence, he said solemnly, "Brother Miaofa, although you and I are from the same Buddhist lineage, there have been some disagreements between our two factions over the past few Chaos Eras. This matter is quite thorny, as it concerns the Perfect Dao King. If we act rashly, we may bring unnecessary trouble to our Xumi Dharma Realm Pure Land."

The heart of the Ancient Buddha of Supreme Wonderful Dharma sank, but he remained resolute and advised, "Brother Xumi, this matter is of grave importance. Please reconsider. That mysterious force has serious ambitions and is definitely not targeting my Pure Land of Bliss. It could very well implicate the entire Buddhist community. Brother Xumi, please rest assured. We will never let your actions go in vain. As long as you are willing to bring others to help, the next time the Great Bright Divine Pool opens, you can choose three Buddha disciples to enter the pool for baptism."

"Three baptismal places in the Great Light Divine Pool, this old man is willing to give them up." A hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the ancient Buddha Xumi. The Great Light Divine Pool is the foundation and greatest heritage of the Pure Land of Bliss and Light. The Great Light Divine Pool has made an indelible contribution to the Pure Land of Bliss and Light being able to have so many Buddhas and above.

It opens once every ten thousand Chaos Eras. Each time it opens, ten people can enter the pool for baptism. After baptism, a high-level Chaos Divine Body has a good chance of forging a top-level Chaos Divine Body and possessing the potential to attain Buddhahood. Even a top-level Chaos Divine Body can gain many benefits and improve its talents and qualifications by entering it.

Three places, if they are lucky, will be enough to add three Buddhas to their Sumeru Dharma Realm Pure Land.

But the risk of this matter is not small. The Perfect Dao King is not someone to be trifled with. If he really sets his heart on being an enemy of their Sumeru Dharma Realm Pure Land, he will become a great threat to them. Not to mention, the details of that mysterious force are unknown. Who knows whether there is a second or third Perfect Dao King behind it.

After a long moment of contemplation, the Xumi Ancient Buddha slowly said, "Brother Miaofa, this matter is of great importance. Please stay with me for now. I will give you a reply after discussing it with my fellow disciples."

The Supreme Dharma Ancient Buddha had no choice but to bow again and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother. I apologize for bothering you. I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible."

After saying this, under the guidance of the golden-bodied arhat, he left the hall and headed for the arranged residence.

......

Time flies, and soon another eight million years have passed.

The ancient Buddha, with a compassionate wish to save the world, finally arrived at the Pure Land of Infinite Brahma. Within, the lingering sound of Sanskrit, like the melodies of nature, swirled and echoed in the air, as if revealing the secrets of the supreme Dharma. Golden petals drifted across the sky, like fine raindrops, falling in a dreamlike pattern. Magnificent palaces floated in the air, exuding a mysterious and peaceful aura, like a fairyland from myth and legend.

The ancient Buddha with a compassionate wish to save the world came to the Brahma Holy Palace, the dojo of the ancient Buddha, with ease.

At that moment, the Brahma Ancient Buddha was lecturing with several disciples in a garden at the Brahma Holy Palace. Seeing the Compassionate Wish to Save the World Ancient Buddha arrive, he was slightly startled, then smiled and stood up to greet him, "Junior Brother Compassionate Wish, what brings you here?"

The Ancient Buddha of Compassionate Desire to Save the World had a serious expression and clasped his hands together, saying, "Brother Brahma, I have come here on a pressing matter. My Pure Land of Bliss and Light has encountered a mysterious force, and even my nephew Prajna has been suppressed by them. I hope Brother Brahma can lend a hand to my Pure Land of Bliss and Light, and work together to deduce the location of this mysterious force."

The Ancient Buddha of Brahma frowned slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He said, "Is this really true? Could it be that even Senior Brother Guangming has difficulty in calculating the whereabouts of that force?"

In terms of cultivation, the Ancient Buddha of Supreme Light may be weaker than him, but in terms of calculation, in the entire Buddhist sect, only the Ancient Buddha of Sumeru can surpass him, and he is much stronger than him.

The Ancient Buddha of Compassionate Desire to Save the World nodded solemnly and said, "Brother Brahma, to be honest, 18 million years ago, Brother Guangming once calculated with us, but we found nothing."

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Buddha Brahma frowned and slowly said, "Brother Beiyuan, this matter is of great importance. Please allow me to consider it."

Although their Endless Brahma Pure Land and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss and Light have always been on good terms, and the Ancient Buddha with a Compassionate Wish to Save the World is his best friend, the Endless Brahma Pure Land is not his pure land alone, and he cannot let their Endless Brahma Pure Land fall into danger because of his own selfishness.

Even with the combined power of the four ancient Buddhas, including the Supreme Light Ancient Buddha, they could not deduce the whereabouts of that mysterious force. One can imagine its strength. Even if it is not as good as their Endless Brahma Pure Land, it will not be much inferior.

The Ancient Buddha of Compassionate Wish to Save the World was slightly taken aback. He had not expected this old friend to actually reject him. He immediately said anxiously, "Brother, I understand the risks of this matter are enormous, but that mysterious force is extremely ambitious. This time they are targeting our Pure Land of Bliss and Light. There's no guarantee that they won't harm the Pure Land of Endless Brahma and even the entire Buddhist sect in the future. If we can eliminate them before they are fully developed, we will eliminate a major hidden danger for Buddhism. Moreover, our Pure Land of Bliss and Light will not let you help us in vain. If Brother Brahma is willing to help, we are willing to offer you three cleansing spots in the Great Bright Divine Pool as a reward."

The ancient Buddha of Brahma raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Beiyuan, it's been so long, a few years won't make a difference. I'll contact a few of you and give you an answer as soon as possible. How do you think?"

The ancient Buddha, who was willing to save the world, suppressed his resentment and said helplessly, "Thank you, Senior Brother Brahma. I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible."

The Ancient Buddha Brahma patted the Ancient Buddha Beiyuan Dushi on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Beiyuan. I will inform you as soon as there is a result."

After saying this, the Ancient Buddha of Brahma called over a disciple and instructed him, "Take your Uncle Beiyuan to rest. Don't neglect him."

The disciple respectfully accepted the order and left the garden with the Ancient Buddha, who had a profound wish to save the world. As he watched them depart, the smile on the Ancient Buddha Brahma's face gradually faded, replaced by a solemn expression. With a movement of his spirit, several beams of divine light pierced the air and flew away.

......

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, tens of millions of years have passed.

Desolate God Continent, Nine Spirit Realm, Ten Thousand Spirits Lake.

Su Mo was lying leisurely on the recliner. A white light flashed in his hand, and a black dragon about half a foot long appeared in his hand, with a ferocious face, bared fangs and claws, as if it was going to devour someone.

"Another 4,000 Dao King, or another 4,300 Dao King. It's almost here. In another 8 million years at most, I will be able to gather enough lifespan to forge a top-level Chaos Divine Body."
