Chapter 194: The Six-Syllable Mantra Displays Its Might, Restoring the Western Spiritual Veins!

Regarding Chen Ku's words, everyone could say they had never heard such a thing.

Even Jieyin and Zhunti were completely bewildered.

Well then!

This kid really is a disciple of the West?!

How is it that the great divine abilities he controls are completely unknown even to his master and uncle, Jieyin and Zhunti?

More importantly, according to Chen Ku, these great divine abilities are extremely compatible with the Buddhist Gate.

Doesn't this mean that Chen Ku already understood the profound truths of Buddhism before Jieyin and Zhunti established the Buddhist Gate?!

This.... Is that even possible?!

After a moment of silence, Jieyin smiled faintly and said:

"Heh, if that's the case."

"Then, disciple, let me first contemplate this a bit and see how powerful these great divine abilities are."

Jieyin said this half-believing, half-doubting.

Hearing this, Chen Ku also did not waste words.

He immediately explained the cultivation methods of all the divine abilities, one by one.

Listening to his explanation, Jieyin and Zhunti's expressions gradually became solemn.

Later, they could not hide their astonishment and regret.

"Sigh... These six divine abilities are truly marvelous beyond compare, extraordinarily terrifying."

Zhunti exclaimed in amazement.

Now, as a Sage, having fully comprehended the profound truths of Buddhism,

therefore, for everything Chen Ku said, they almost instantly understood it completely and mastered all the divine abilities.

Without a doubt, even as a Sage, they could not help but marvel at the Heavenly Eye, Heavenly Ear and other great divine abilities, whose power far exceeds imagination.

Jieyin, however, was even more straightforward.

"Om mani padme hum..."

He slightly opened his mouth and uttered the Six-Syllable Mantra.

Instantly, its sound thundered like rolling waves, echoing high above the heavens.

Under the celestial sound, it triggered a burst of golden light across the sky, covering heaven and earth.

And within that celestial sound, there seemed to stretch a vast, profound Dao rhythm, mysterious and unfathomable.

Under the mantra, the boundless support and compassion of the Buddha-Dao were revealed, fully displaying the compassion and wisdom of all Buddhas.

Instantly, the Western sages stared, mouths agape, scalps tingling.

"Sigh... Senior Chen Ku's created method is indeed terrifying!"

"If we could master these great divine abilities, wouldn't our strength advance by leaps and bounds?"

"Senior Chen Ku's actions truly benefit the beings of the West."

"We pay our respects to Senior Chen Ku."

"We pay our respects to Senior Chen Ku."

Figures one after another immediately performed a great bow, paying respects to Chen Ku.

By this point, everyone had no lingering doubt whatsoever.

Afterward, Jieyin, Zhunti, and Chen Ku gave the crowd a discourse on the Dao; needless to say more.

Everyone felt as if they had obtained a supreme treasure, overjoyed and unable to contain their excitement.

After the lecture ended, everyone dispersed, each going into secluded cultivation.

Having done all this, Jieyin and Zhunti also secretly let out a long sigh of relief.

Immediately, Jieyin glanced over the Western heavens and earth, smiling as he said:

"Now, we two have become Sages."

"Perhaps we should use the power of Sages to restore the spiritual veins and earth veins of the West."

As Jieyin looked, the Mysterious Yellow Earth Vein Ginseng and other spiritual roots and immortal fruits that Chen Ku had initially harvested now shone brightly, radiant with celestial light.

However, relying solely on the power of these spiritual roots and immortal fruits, the restorative effect would ultimately be limited.

Moreover, with Jieyin and Zhunti now possessing Sage cultivation, they also have greater strength and confidence to revive the West.

Hearing this, Zhunti nodded knowingly.

"Heh, let's go together, junior nephew."

"Observing this may also benefit your cultivation."

Zhunti had not forgotten Chen Ku.

Such means of restoring the earth's spiritual veins could already be called world-shaking.

Therefore, he naturally would not miss this opportunity to nurture Chen Ku.

Hearing this, Chen Ku nodded and would naturally not refuse.

However, before he could speak, Chen Ku's expression shifted as something occurred to him.

"Right, Master, Uncle!"

"Now that the Buddhist Gate has been established, it will surely accumulate supreme fortune in the future."

"In my view, Master and Uncle should perhaps use a spiritual treasure to suppress the Buddhist Gate's fortune."

"That way, the fortune would not dissipate."

For a moment, Jieyin and Zhunti were stunned.

"Exactly, exactly, that's exactly right!"

Hehe, the disciple considered things thoroughly.

The two suddenly understood, looking at Chen Ku with admiration and relief.

Even the two of them, at this place of founding the teaching, had not yet realized the problem of the flow of luck.

Afterwards, Jieyin Zhunti pondered for a moment.

If so, then with the twelfth-grade merit golden lotus and the seven treasures wondrous tree, suppress the luck!

Before the words finished, the two immediately acted.

In an instant, the merit golden lotus and the seven treasures wondrous tree were both offered up, hovering in the void.

Merit golden light and seven-colored divine radiance flowed, vast and magnificent, mysteriously wondrous.

The twelfth-grade merit golden lotus is itself a merit spiritual treasure, with endless wondrous uses; suppressing the luck of a domain's Dao lineage goes without saying.

And the seven treasures wondrous tree can also be called Zhunti's natal spiritual treasure, sharing honor together.

Thus, with the seven treasures wondrous tree empowering, even the slightest anomaly or fluctuation in Buddhist luck would be instantly sensed by Zhunti.

In an instant, with the three of them cultivating, they could clearly see.

Under the suppression of the two great spiritual treasures, Buddhist luck gathered thread by thread, as if substantive, with not the slightest bit flowing away.

The matter of suppressing luck is finished.

The three said no more and immediately set out.

Since we are to restore the Western spiritual veins and earth veins, naturally we must go to the bitter, cold, barren lands.

Hehe, my West has finally awaited this day.

Jieyin showed a smile and spoke thus.

In his words, full of emotion and anticipation.

The longed-for revival of the West is about to become true, making him unable to conceal the turmoil in his heart.

Afterwards, Jieyin Zhunti immediately acted.

Merit reflects the world!

With a great shout, the two's mighty power surged forth.

For a moment, merit's mysterious light appeared, illuminating billions of miles of the Western world.

A sage's methods are naturally extraordinary.

Amidst its radiant sweep, a holy and auspicious aura spread.

Vitality burst forth covering heaven and earth, as if pouring down from the nine heavens.

Spiritual light swayed, divine radiance shining brightly!

Not only that.

Chen Ku noticed that even the Daoist law order filling the void was now intertwining and transforming.

After a long while, it gradually became peaceful and tranquil.

On the ground, the withered spiritual roots and immortal plants, etc., once again exhaled auspicious colors, swaying in the wind.

Even the originally dim and lightless earth now likewise extended forth veins of shining spiritual light.

Billions of miles, all are like this!

Jieyin Zhunti was overjoyed.

Haha, wonderful, wonderful......

Although it cannot be said to let my West fully flourish, it has restored about half.

Not bad!

The vastness of the Western world, even though Jieyin Zhunti possesses sage cultivation, still cannot fully restore it.

This time, only about half was restored.

But for this, Jieyin Zhunti is already quite satisfied.

After all, as the saying goes, without accumulating steps one cannot reach a thousand miles.

Moreover, needless to say, this time they actually restored a full half.

Compared to the initially bitter, cold, barren, desolate and ruined Western world, this is already a tremendous change.

Beside him, Chen Ku watched all this, likewise showing a smile.

Hehe, given time, the spiritual veins can gradually nurture living beings.

Truly restoring this expanse of the Western world is now within sight.

Chen Ku is very clear.

Spiritual veins and earth veins can be called existences of the level of the origin of all things.

As long as these are restored, the complete restoration of the entire Western world is merely a matter of time.

Moreover, even so, compared to the original heavenly numbers, in the later generations' Journey to the West Great Calamity, the West could only recover then.

This is also already advancing by an unknown number of years.

Hehe, the power of my master and uncle, the sages, is indeed astonishing to the world, shaking the nine heavens and ten earths.

Today, it has instead let the disciple broaden his horizons.

Chen Ku laughed and praised.

These words are not intentional flattery.

To personally witness a sage's methods is a tremendous shock.

A sage's words are the law's decree; every move is a manifestation of the Dao.

Moreover, being in tune with the order of heaven and earth, profound and unfathomable, immensely powerful.

Having previously pacified the law and order of those western realms is the best proof.

It's no exaggeration to say that even if countless peak quasi-saint experts struggled for tens of thousands of years, they might not achieve the effect of Jieyin and Zhunti's gesture.

Under a saint, all are ants; the reputation is well-deserved!

"Haha, you brat actually spoke the truth."

Upon hearing his words, Zhunti's face showed a proud, self-satisfied expression.

Only now did he have some of the dignity of an elder.

Before this, Chen Ku's talent was outstanding, and his accumulation could be called astonishing.

In his presence, Jieyin and Zhunti often appeared like raw recruits, seeming quite "clueless".

Today, this display of my methods finally broadened Chen Ku's horizons.

How could Zhunti not be pleased?!

Of course, my becoming a saint is also thanks to Chen Ku's contribution.

Jieyin, meanwhile, gave a light smile.

"Hehe, disciple, there's no need to envy us."

"When the time comes, if you can attain the position of a saint, you will surely be even more extraordinary than us two as your masters."

Jieyin has full confidence in Chen Ku.

That is, without the Hongmeng Purple Qi, Chen Ku's proving the Dao and becoming a saint would be a certainty.

Even Jieyin feels that Chen Ku will surpass his teachers, outshining the blue from which he came.

However, upon hearing Jieyin's words, Chen Ku neither affirmed nor denied.

He couldn't help but speak softly, sighing:

"Ah, suffering... ah, suffering......"

"Alas, wanting to become a saint—how could it be that easy?!"

Chen Ku did not say it outright.

But his cultivation is the Hunyuan Dao, which is inherently more difficult than the Three Corpses Dao cultivated by Jieyin and Zhunti.

If he proves the Dao, it cannot be said that he proves the Dao to become a saint; rather, it should be said that he proves the Dao to become a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.

Furthermore, given the supremacy of the Heavenly Dao, the Hunyuan Dao is an anomaly for him.

Therefore, it's easy to foresee that if Chen Ku later wishes to prove the Hunyuan Dao, he will inevitably face obstruction from the will of the Heavenly Dao, with endless hardships.

Chen Ku felt somewhat heavy-hearted.

However, after just a moment, he lifted his spirits and cast this worry from his mind.

The greater the difficulty, the more challenging it is.

Moreover, if I truly achieve this in the future, my strength will indeed be incomparable to that of Heavenly Dao saints.

Having embarked on this path, there's no need for further hesitation; one must press forward without retreat.

Having come to his senses, Chen Ku no longer dwelled on it.

"Hehe, Master, Grandmaster."

"This matter is concluded; we should return to Mount Sumeru."

The restoration of the spiritual veins and earth veins has ended; they naturally need not remain here.

Saying this, Chen Ku immediately rose, preparing to return to Mount Sumeru, or rather, to the Buddhist gate.

However, Jieyin and Zhunti made no move.

"Wait!"

"Perhaps we should also go deal with the greatest trouble."

Unexpectedly, Jieyin suddenly said this.

As he spoke, he looked at Zhunti, who likewise immediately showed an expression of realization.

Only Chen Ku, bewildered, asked:

"Oh? What other trouble?!"

He did not understand the meaning of Jieyin's words.

This time, Zhunti spoke up to explain:

"That is where the source of the West's damage lies."

"For endless ages, boundless demonic qi has surged forth from within."

"Even to this day, it has not ceased."

"Precisely for this reason, it has been devouring the spiritual qi of my West, wiping out the vitality of all things."

This explanation struck Chen Ku as somewhat novel.

The West's damage and desolation actually still have such a greatest source existing?

"Where exactly is it?!"

He continued to ask.

Upon hearing this, Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance and then, in unison, looked toward a certain direction.

"Heaven Demon Mountain!"

Hearing this response,

Chen Ku's expression shifted instantly, and some information from his memory surged forth.
