Chapter 403: Chapter 358: Changes in the Three Realms "Hoo~" A clear and crisp cry rang out, and within the call, two beautiful, colorful birds pulled along a bright golden chariot, adorned with phoenixes and peacock bas-reliefs, undoubtedly a phoenix chariot. The magnificent golden chariot stopped in mid-air, and the figure of Bai He Child appeared, bowing to Bai Jin, then loudly proclaimed, "Primordial Venerable has decreed: For the great merits Lu Ya of the Law Enforcement Team has achieved throughout the Three Realms, on this auspicious day of his union with Purple Yao Heavenly Girl, congratulations are due. Thusly, we gift a phoenix chariot, in hopes that the two of you soar high together." Lu Ya and Purple Yao Heavenly Girl bowed in unison, saying, "We thank you, Master!" All Immortals within the world also bowed, chanting in unison, "We pay our respects to Primordial Saint!" Their hearts twitched – weren’t the Chan Sect and Jie Sect sworn enemies? Why would Primordial Venerable send gifts to a junior? Bai He Child nodded slightly. Crack~ The Vermilion Bird Realm tore open, and Water and Fire Boys walked out, bowing to Bai Jin. Bai Jin gave them a slight nod in return. Water and Fire Boys spoke loudly, "Upper Pure Saint has decreed: As my disciple Lu Ya and Vermilion Bird Heavenly Girl have come to know and cherish each other, today they are united as a Daoist couple, and are thusly bestowed with one million Merit Coins." With a wave of Water and Fire Boys’ hand, the Merit Coins fell from the sky like rain, dazzling the mind and spirit. Lu Ya and Vermilion Bird Heavenly Girl released their Qingyun in unison, and all the Merit Coins fell upon their Qingyuns, turning them golden as well. Lu Ya and Purple Yao bowed with joy, saying, "We thank you, Master!" The Immortals and Gods of the Vermilion Bird Realm also hurried to bow, saying, "We pay our respects to Saint Tongtian!" As they stood, they gazed at the Saint’s Treasures suppressing the void above them, feeling as if in a trance. Every Saint honoring Lu Ya’s wedding – what a glory it was! Even with the decline of the Jie Sect, to have such honor was truly fearsome and admirable. Even the Vermilion Bird Venerable Sage was shocked. With All Heavens Saints arriving to congratulate them, not even one’s own status could compare. How did Bai Jin manage this? All Immortals couldn’t help but look towards Bai Jin, for it wasn’t hard to see whose presence the envoys of the Saints were paying homage to. Bai Jin, looking at Maitreya, said with a smile, "Maitreya Buddha, are these congratulatory gifts sufficient?" The corners of Maitreya’s mouth twitched slightly, and he replied with a forced smile, "Since you, elder brother, have prepared gifts, you should have taken them out earlier to save us the worry on your behalf." The followers of Buddhism descended from their clouds. During Lu Ya’s wedding, Bai Jin showed no intention of taking advantage when someone was down, and said, "Lu Ya, accept the congratulatory gifts, and prepare for your grand wedding!" Warmth and gratitude surged in Lu Ya’s heart. He thought, my elder brother must have made great sacrifices to secure these blessings for my wedding, to spare me any regrets. Such kindness will never be forgotten for all eternity! Lu Ya bowed towards the sky, as a spectrum of Divine Light shone, accepting all the Saints’ gifts. Then, with joyful and celebratory music, under the congratulations of all Immortals and Gods, Lu Ya and Purple Yao bowed to the Heavenly Dao, to Heaven and Earth, to the Saint Venerable, and were wed. Afterward, the Vermilion Bird and the Peacock danced, the Immortals and Gods freely enjoyed the banquet, in a scene where all under the heavens celebrated together. Bai Jin sat loftily on his seat, raising his cup from afar as a toast to Maitreya. Maitreya also raised his wine cup, chuckling as he watched Bai Jin. Bai Jin transmitted his voice, "Little brother, what’s with today? Haven’t we already formed an alliance?" Maitreya transmitted back, "Elder brother, the premise of our alliance was that I could become the Buddha. Now, Ran Deng is the Buddha, so the premise of our alliance no longer exists. I, a mere ordinary disciple of Buddhism, how could I aspire to match Elder Brother?" Bai Jin sighed and transmitted his voice, "Alas, what is Buddha Mother planning? Allowing an outsider to take the position of Buddha, doesn’t that dishearten you all?" Maitreya transmitted back, "Buddha Mother’s wisdom is as deep as the ocean; how could we fathom Buddha Mother’s plans? There must be profound reasoning behind her actions." "So you help Ran Deng and stand against me?" Maitreya Buddha replied with a smile, "If it is the command of the Buddha, how can I defy it?" "You are really resigned to accept this fate?" "The sacred command of the Buddha Mother, who dares to defy it!" "The position of the Buddha is related to the succession of Buddhism, how important it is, how can it be granted so easily? Ran Deng must also be on probation now, the Buddha Mother has been watching his actions, you still have a chance." Maitreya Buddha’s eyes lit up, and he quickly sent a message, "Please enlighten me, elder brother." "You do not need to defy the sacred command of the Buddha Mother, you just need to prove that Ran Deng is not suitable to be the Buddha." "How to prove it?" "First, surpass him in Buddhist law!" "This is not difficult! Since I became a disciple, I have been following the Master to practice Buddhist law. In terms of attainment in Buddhist law, how can he compare to the disciples of the Yichan Sect?" "Second, if Ran Deng lacks the power to control Buddhism, leading to chaos within! This should also be easy for you?" Maitreya transmitted a message, "Mahasthamaprapta, Ksitigarbha, Pharmacist, Lu Ya, they do not submit to Ran Deng either. By borrowing their power, it is very easy to cause chaos within Buddhism." "Not only do you want chaos in Buddhism, but you should also take the opportunity to grow your own strength and vie for the position of the Buddha. I plan to establish a Heaven and Earth People’s Bank, issue cultivation currency, and if Fellow Daoist need to, you can go there to take out loans to win over the hearts of Buddhists. I will give you the lowest interest rate." Cultivation currency? What is that? And what’s a loan? Although I don’t understand it now, if Bai Jin values it, it must be something great, Maitreya transmitted a message, "Then I thank you, Fellow Daoist!" "Ha ha~ Golden Core relics are inherently benevolent and righteous, the path of the Buddha is inherently one family. I have always been your most steadfast ally!" Bai Jin sincerely looked at Maitreya. Holding up his cup, Maitreya stood up and bowed, saying, "Brother Bai Jin, previously due to my concern for Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, I spoke out of turn and may have offended you, please forgive me!" Bai Jin also stood up with his cup and responded, "What are you talking about, Fellow Daoist! How could such a misunderstanding ruin our deep friendship?! Please~" "Please~" Maitreya lifted his cup and drained it in one gulp. Bai Jin also picked up his cup and downed it in one gulp. All the Immortal Gods around them were cheerfully watching Bai Jin and Maitreya together. Bai Jin and Maitreya sat down, smiling at each other, and continued to watch the dance. ... The Vermilion Bird Venerable Sage sat in the host’s seat, Bai Jin took his place further down to the left. The Vermilion Bird Venerable Sage smiled and said, "Bai Jin, how did you manage it?" "Manage what?" "What price did you pay to have All Heavens Saints celebrate for you?" Bai Jin coughed once, laughed and said, "Venerable Sage, in truth, the Saints are very generous. I just made a request, and the Saints readily agreed." The Vermilion Bird Venerable Sage was taken aback, All Heavens Saints are very generous? Glancing at Bai Jin, are you sure you’re not dreaming? A thunderous boom~ the sound of rolling thunder resonated through the Primordial World. Above the skies of the Primordial World, dark mists rolled in, enveloping the entire Primordial World, turning day into night. Countless birds flying in the sky tweeted in panic and fled in fear, rolling dark winds swept through the Primordial Heaven and Earth, and numerous creatures fell into panic and unease. Outside of the Primordial World in the Chaos, Taishang Sect Leader, Primordial Venerable, Saint Tongtian, Zhunti, and Nuwa all looked towards the Primordial World. In their gaze, beyond the thirty-three layers of the Primordial Heaven, a new space gradually formed - silent, quiet, and desolate.
