Primordial Era: The Ten Deadly Formations are Broken, Shen Gongbao Asks Me to Come Out of the Mounta

Boundless Heavenly Venerable!

The Golden Lotus of Merit and the Azure Lotus of Creation are indeed excellent, but the resources they consume are simply too astonishing.

The Creation Lotus is fine. As long as there is enough Three Lights Divine Water, even if we don't pluck that ninth-grade Creation Lotus, the remaining sixth-grade and third-grade lotus platforms and lotus seeds will still be supplied continuously. In fact, if we have another chance to find the Creation Origin Divine Object and cultivate it into a twelfth-grade Creation Lotus, it is entirely possible.

However, the ninth-grade Golden Lotus of Merit is a bit troublesome.

If you want to continuously supply the Golden Lotus Platforms of the Third and Sixth Ranks of Merit, then the Heavenly Merit must not be interrupted.

Although Zhao Gongming had a profound foundation and had even condensed five layers of merit golden wheels, this was the foundation he had accumulated through many schemes!

If this were the case, cultivating and producing third- or sixth-grade merit lotuses would be far too extravagant.

"What if we forgo quantity and instead focus solely on cultivating this single ninth-grade Golden Lotus of Merit into a perfect twelfth-grade Golden Lotus of Merit?"

Zhao Gongming pondered for a moment, and thought to himself, "As the saying goes, quality is worse than quantity."

No matter how many third-grade or sixth-grade merit lotuses there are, they can't compare to a perfect twelve-grade merit lotus!

As he personally cultivated this Golden Lotus of Merit, he also came to understand some things.

No wonder Zhunti Jieyin used the twelve-petaled golden lotus of merit to suppress the fortune of the Western religion.

Besides being a five-fold lotus platform, emotions are also a combination of merits!

Even though it is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, its effect in suppressing the fortune of a major sect is in no way inferior to that of a supreme treasure!

pity!

Zhunti and Jieyin had planned everything meticulously, but they never anticipated that dead mosquito. As all things are interconnected and mutually restraining, the mosquito actually sucked away three grades of the Golden Lotus of Merit.

Although the Ninth Grade Golden Lotus of Merit can also suppress fortune, its effect is naturally quite different from that of the Twelfth Grade.

The reason why Zhunti and Jieyin founded Buddhism, besides monopolizing the benefits of Buddhism's great prosperity, is probably related to the earth-shattering change that occurred with the object that was suppressing the fortune of the great religion.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gongming suddenly gave a lewd smile.

In the primordial chaos, nine was the ultimate, and twelve was the perfect.

Although the Buddhist twelve-grade golden lotus of merit has been downgraded by three grades, it is still the highest-grade golden lotus of merit in the primordial world.

Therefore, the effect of suppressing fortune has decreased, but only to a limited extent. In addition, with the assistance of Cundi and Jieyin, it is still more than enough to suppress the fortune of Buddhism.

However, if Zhao were to cultivate a perfect twelve-petaled Golden Lotus of Merit, then the nine-petaled Golden Lotus of Merit held by the Buddhist sect would become a "fake"!

Its effectiveness in suppressing the fortunes of major religions will likely be greatly diminished, and even if Buddhism has two saints, it will probably be difficult for them to live in peace in the future.

However, thinking about the merit required to cultivate the Golden Lotus of Merit, Zhao Gongming still felt a pang of heartache and kept rubbing his teeth!

But then I thought, if the Buddhist community's fortunes are not going to be stable in the future, wouldn't that mean that Zhao's opportunity has come?

"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. At worst, we can cultivate the Golden Lotus of Merit first, and then plan our own merits!"

Thinking of his agreement with the Sage Nuwa, and his decision to mobilize the demon races of the Three Realms to jointly repair the primordial earth vein nodes, Zhao Gongming quickly made a decision.

As the golden wheel of merit behind his head hummed, it emitted boundless golden light of merit, which entered the ninth-grade golden lotus of merit in the center of the pond. Soon, as the ninth-grade golden lotus of merit swayed gracefully, as if it had eaten a supreme tonic, the tenth-grade lotus leaf of merit grew out in Zhao Gongming's expectant expression. And this was only the beginning!

Ten-Rank Golden Lotus of Merit!

Eleven-tiered Golden Lotus of Merit!

.........................

Meanwhile, Zhao Gongming was cultivating the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit, preparing to launch a sneak attack on the Buddhist sect.

The Buddhist community was also not idle.

After Zhao Gongming left, the emperor issued an edict, and the Buddhist leader Duobao received the decree and immediately summoned Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Duobao said to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, "Ksitigarbha, in the underworld, countless souls wail day and night."

When Amitabha Buddha attained enlightenment and became a saint, he made seventy-two great vows. Our Buddha is compassionate and will save all sentient beings!

The weighty responsibility of saving the souls of the dead in the underworld is now entrusted to you!

Clearly, this means that Buddhism is starting to set its sights on the underworld.

Although you, Zhao Gongming, are the Ziwei Emperor and hold power over Fengdu in the underworld, the disciples sent by our Buddhist sect this time are going to the underworld to guide the souls of the dead.

This kind of thing not only does not violate the cycle of reincarnation in the underworld, but also brings great benefits to the underworld.

Both morally and logically, we are not afraid of you, Zhao Gongming, coming to cause trouble.

Of course, the Buddhist community doesn't have such good intentions.

Ksitigarbha's trip to the underworld is merely to serve as a pawn for Buddhism, to first establish a foothold in the underworld, and then to gradually make his move.

"Amitabha Buddha, with your compassion, it is my duty to save the souls of the dead in the underworld!"

Ksitigarbha clasped his hands together, and in his mind, the image of countless wailing souls in the underworld appeared, which made him feel deeply saddened.

Seeing that Ksitigarbha had agreed to the matter, Duobao smiled. With a wave of his sleeve, a strange beast appeared in front of Ksitigarbha.

Seeing that Ksitigarbha had agreed to the matter, Duobao smiled. With a wave of his sleeve, a strange beast appeared in front of Ksitigarbha.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, this is Di Ting, capable of listening to the three realms and traversing the netherworld; it will serve as your means of transportation!"

Clearly, this was also the work of Zhunti Jieyin.

Ksitigarbha is a direct disciple of the Western Sect, and naturally cannot be compared with the four who betrayed the sect, such as Samantabhadra.

This beast, Di Ting, traverses the netherworld and listens to the three realms. It appears to be Ksitigarbha's mount, but it is actually specifically used to protect Ksitigarbha.

If things go wrong, they will be able to sense it immediately and escape from the underworld with Ksitigarbha.

"Amitabha Buddha, your disciple thanks the Buddha!"

"Go then!"

"Amitabha Buddha, your disciple is off!"

Ksitigarbha left Mount Sumeru, sat upright on the back of Di Ting, and went straight to the underworld without even returning to his own sacred site, Mount Jiuhua.

The Di Ting (a mythical beast) traveled through the netherworld and soon brought Ksitigarbha to the Gates of Hell. Upon seeing the countless souls queuing to enter the gates, Ksitigarbha was filled with compassion.

He tossed aside his staff and, imitating his master, made a great vow: "I am Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva of Buddhism. Today, moved by the suffering of the souls in the underworld, I make this great vow: I will not become a Buddha until hell is emptied!"

Rumble!

At the same time that Ksitigarbha made his great vow.

Heaven sensed this and immediately bestowed a tremendous amount of merit, which entered Ksitigarbha's body, causing his primordial spirit cultivation to surge to the quasi-saint level in an instant.

In the Ziwei Huan Zhong, Zhao Gongming was examining the twelve-petaled golden lotus of merit in front of him, as if admiring a perfect work of art!

At that moment, he sensed something and looked straight at the underworld. Upon hearing Ksitigarbha's grand vow, he was first instinctively stunned, and then an expression of admiration appeared on his face!

Listen to this!

I vow not to become a Buddha until hell is empty.

Do you, Ksitigarbha, always play this big?
