Chapter 110: Manifestation of the Human Dao, Planning for Ksitigarbha

~14 min read 2,749 words

Seeing the Kongtong Seal dyed golden, Pan Huang was also a bit puzzled. What was going on?

But the next second, he knew what was going on.

Seeing the Kongtong Seal dyed golden, the next second, the golden light receded. After the golden light receded, it turned into a golden light bead. After this golden light bead was formed, it flew directly into Pan Huang's forehead. Pan Huang did not even have a chance to dodge.

"So that's it!" After this golden bead flew into Pan Huang's body, he finally knew what the golden bead was. This was actually the inheritance of the Human Dao. From now on, he was the spokesperson of the Human Dao, just like Hongjun represented the Heavenly Dao and Pingxin Niangniang represented the Earthly Dao. From now on, he, Pan Huang, would represent the Human Dao.

"The Human Dao has manifested. From today on, the Human Race will truly become the protagonist of heaven and earth. This is not given by the Heavenly Dao; this is fought for by the Human Race itself." Pan Huang muttered to himself.

"Since the Human Dao has manifested, according to the general process, this Great Calamity should be coming to an end. Then, the next thing should be the rise of the Western Sect, right?" Pan Huang rubbed his chin.

"Since the next Great Calamity is the Western Sect, then we can take action on Ksitigarbha's side. I had already asked Pingxin Niangniang to pay attention to him before. Now it should be the time." Pan Huang said again.

Thinking of this, Pan Huang prepared to go to the Underworld to take a look. He had been busy with the battle between the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao before and had not been to the Underworld to gather for a long time.

"Hong Zhu, Green Willow." Pan Huang shouted.

Soon, two little Daoist boys, carved from pink jade, walked into the Saint Huang Hall.

"Greetings, Master." After seeing Pan Huang, Hong Zhu and Green Willow hurriedly bowed.

"Where are Gongming and the others now?" Pan Huang asked.

"Master, Eldest Senior Brother and the others are currently practicing in the cave dwelling." Hong Zhu said.

"I am preparing to go to the Underworld. You tell Gongming and the others to go to the Human Race's Saint Court to help the Human Race build the Saint Court first. After the Saint Court is on the right track, they can come back." Pan Huang said to Hong Zhu and Green Willow.

"Yes, Master!" Hong Zhu and Green Willow nodded.

After explaining to Hong Zhu and Green Willow, Pan Huang disappeared from the Saint Huang Hall. When he appeared again, he had already arrived in the Fengdu Hall.

After Pan Huang arrived at the Fengdu Hall, the Great Emperor Fengdu discovered Pan Huang for the first time, but now the Great Emperor Fengdu still had some things in his hands that had not been dealt with. He signaled to Pan Huang and then continued to be busy.

Pan Huang watched for a little while and found it boring, so he exited the Fengdu Hall.

After exiting the hall, he sent a message to the Five Directions Ghost Emperors, saying that he had arrived in the Underworld and was now outside the Fengdu Hall.

After hearing this news, the Five Directions Ghost Emperors showed a smile on their faces.

"Thirteenth Brother, long time no see!" After seeing Pan Huang, Shebishi came up with a big hug.

"I have been busy recently, and I came here as soon as I had time." Pan Huang said with a smile.

"Alright, you kid never visits without a reason. Go and do your business first." At this time, the Great Emperor Fengdu finished his work, walked over, and said with a smile.

"After I finish my business, I will come back to catch up with my brothers and sisters." Pan Huang scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then went to the Pingxin Hall.

"Pingxin Niangniang, how are Ksitigarbha and the others doing now?" After arriving at the Pingxin Hall, Pan Huang asked.

"I have already laid the groundwork for Ksitigarbha, and we can take the next step at any time." Pingxin Niangniang nodded.

"Good, then I will go and see this Ksitigarbha King." After Pan Huang finished speaking, he left.

When he arrived at the edge of the Sea of Blood, he saw the Ksitigarbha King chatting with Styx.

"Greetings, Lord Pan Huang." After seeing Pan Huang, the Ksitigarbha King stood up and bowed.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist. Fellow Daoist has not been to my Sea of Blood as a guest for a long time!" After seeing Pan Huang, Styx said with a smile.

"Hahaha, what is difficult about that? After I finish this period of time, I will come to the Sea of Blood to discuss the Dao with fellow Daoist." Pan Huang said with a smile.

"Then this poor Daoist will wait for fellow Daoist." Styx said with a smile.

Ksitigarbha, who was on the side, saw the conversation between Styx and Pan Huang, and a trace of envy flashed in his eyes. When he was in the West, because his talent was mediocre, he had no friends at all. In the West, because resources were scarce, everyone was an enemy. Only in this way would there be no compassion in the distribution of resources.

"Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, you should know the purpose of my coming here, right?" After Pan Huang finished exchanging pleasantries with Styx, he looked at the Ksitigarbha King.

"Hmm, this poor monk is already prepared." The Ksitigarbha King nodded.

"Fellow Daoist, in the end, I still want to remind you that once this matter is done, you will basically break with the West, and you will never be able to return to the West in the future." Pan Huang looked at the Ksitigarbha King and said.

"Lord Pan Huang, this poor monk has been in this Underworld for I don't know how many years. This poor monk has been converting the creatures in this Sea of Blood every day. After so many years, I have long since repaid the kindness of the West. What follows..." The Ksitigarbha King looked at Pan Huang and said very seriously.

The meaning of his words was already very clear: he, the Ksitigarbha King, had long been prepared to break with the West.

"Good, then you should adjust your state these two days. The situation in the hell is complicated, and it still needs some time to prepare, but it won't be too long, just these few days."

"I have come through so many years, so it won't be a few days. Lord Pan Huang doesn't need to worry." The Ksitigarbha King said with a smile.

After saying goodbye to Ksitigarbha, Pan Huang came to the hell. The Mosquito Daoist was now the master of this hell. He came here to let the Mosquito Daoist get everything ready so that he could pave the way for the Ksitigarbha King.

"You can rest assured when I do things." The Mosquito Daoist said with a smile.

When Pan Huang was running around in the Underworld, on Mount Sumeru, Zhunti and Jieyin were also imagining the future. Back when there was a battle between the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao, they received a hint from the Heavenly Dao Hongjun, saying that after this Great Calamity, it would be the rise of their West.

Now, the battle between the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao had ended. Although the Human Dao finally won, this had nothing to do with the West. They only cared about the rise of the West. After all, they still owed the Heavenly Dao a lot of merit.

"By the way, Junior Brother, have you contacted the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect?" Jieyin suddenly asked.

"Senior Brother, don't worry. I have already contacted all three thousand disciples of the Jie Sect. As for the Chan Sect, it is basically settled, but now we are missing an opportunity." Zhunti said.

"Opportunity? What do you mean?" Jieyin was a little confused.

"Actually, as early as the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, I had secretly contacted the Chan Sect, but they did not agree at that time. It was not until the battle between the Heavenly Dao and the Human Dao that the hearts of the Chan Sect were firmed. But now they need an opportunity. Only in this way, when facing Yuanshi Tianzun, can they be righteous and not be gossiped about by the ten thousand races of the Primordial World." Zhunti explained.

"Since Junior Brother already has an idea, then proceed according to Junior Brother's idea." After hearing this, Jieyin nodded.

"By the way, Senior Brother, I have also contacted one person. We need to treat this person differently." Zhunti suddenly said.

"Who?" Jieyin was a little curious. They were Saints. Who could make them treat them differently?

"The little Golden Crow of the Demon Race." Zhunti said with a smile.

"Little Golden Crow?" Jieyin's brows furrowed.

"Senior Brother, I know your worries. There is no problem with the little Golden Crow of the Demon Race. I have been in contact with this little Golden Crow since the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. I have been very attentive to him because he is different from others." A look of pride appeared on Zhunti's face.

"Hmm! Since there is no problem, then do it. If we pull the little Golden Crow to our side, we can at least divide half to one percent of the Demon Race's fortune." Jieyin nodded and said.

But what Jieyin and Zhunti did not know was that when they were planning for others, others were also planning for them.

On the Underworld side, the Mosquito Daoist was already prepared. The Ten Yama Kings and the Five Directions Ghost Emperors, and even the Great Emperor Fengdu and Pingxin Niangniang were all ready. Once an accident occurred, they would take action.

"Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, are you ready to become a Buddha?" Pan Huang looked at the Ksitigarbha King and asked.

"This poor monk has waited too long for this moment." The Ksitigarbha King said very seriously.

When he made this vow back then, it was actually not his original intention. This vow was made by the Saint Jieyin. The original Ksitigarbha was still relatively simple. Back then, he thought that the Underworld was just so-so. As long as he was diligent, the hell would soon be empty.

But after he came to the Underworld, he realized that he had been deceived by the Saint Jieyin. It was impossible for the hell to be empty. Unless there were no creatures in the Primordial World, the hell would not be empty.

And because of the vow, he could only stay by this Sea of Blood now, constantly converting creatures for the West and increasing the number of creatures in the West.

After so many years, people from the West had never come to the Underworld to see Ksitigarbha. In their view, everything he did was what he should do.

So when Pingxin Niangniang found Ksitigarbha, he chose to betray the West without saying a word. At least the Underworld could let Ksitigarbha become a Buddha.

"Start!" After getting Ksitigarbha's answer, Pan Huang began to command.

When Pan Huang's voice fell, the Mosquito Daoist immediately collected all the ghosts in the eighteen layers of hell, including the jailers, he did not let them go. After a few breaths, the originally noisy hell fell into a strange silence.

After the Mosquito Daoist finished all this, he sent a message to Pan Huang, and a smile appeared on Pan Huang's face.

Immediately after, the Ten Yama Kings also sent a message that the ghosts on the road of reincarnation had also been cleared. Now all the ghosts in the entire Underworld had been cleared.

"Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, the next time is yours." Pan Huang looked at the Ksitigarbha King with a serious face.

"Thank you, Lord Pan Huang." Ksitigarbha nodded.

Taking a few deep breaths, Ksitigarbha's eyes instantly became firm.

"Heavenly Dao is above, I am Ksitigarbha. I made a vow when the Underworld was first built: if hell is not empty, I will not become a Buddha. Now that hell is empty, Ksitigarbha should become a Buddha." The Ksitigarbha King shouted loudly.

After the words fell, the power of the Heavenly Dao and the Earthly Dao appeared in the Underworld at the same time. The appearance of the Earthly Dao was just to prevent the Heavenly Dao from making trouble.

After the power of the Heavenly Dao swept through the Underworld, it found that there was indeed no ghost, and then it said a "granted" word.

After the voice of the Heavenly Dao fell, a white light fell from the void and landed directly on the Ksitigarbha King. The aura on his body began to climb.

After a few breaths, the aura on Ksitigarbha's body reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint, but this white light still did not disperse, and the aura on Ksitigarbha's body was still rising.

Bang—

When the white light was about to dissipate, a muffled sound appeared in Ksitigarbha's body. The next second, a very strange aura emanated from Ksitigarbha's body. This aura was stronger than the peak of the Quasi-Saint, but weaker than a Saint, which made everyone very strange.

"This is an Asaint." Seeing everyone's doubts, Pan Huang explained with a smile.

"Asaint?"

"That's right. There are at most nine Saints in the Primordial World, but the Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Derivation is forty-nine, and one is escaped. So, the Primordial World can only bear eight Saints, and Ksitigarbha is not enough to become this eighth one, so he became what he is now." Pan Huang said.

After hearing Pan Huang's explanation, everyone finally understood. It turned out that there was an Asaint realm between the Quasi-Saint and the Saint.

After the white light disappeared, the Ksitigarbha King's strength was completely stabilized at the Asaint realm. Feeling his own strength and that relaxed feeling, a smile appeared on Ksitigarbha's face.

He had not been so relaxed for a long time. Since he discovered the vow, shackles had been put on his body. Now that these shackles were removed, Ksitigarbha felt a long-lost relaxation.

West, Mount Sumeru.

After Jieyin and Zhunti felt the movement in the Underworld, they were stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on their faces.

To be honest, if it weren't for today's movement, they wouldn't have remembered that there was such a person as Ksitigarbha in the West.

Back then, they chose Ksitigarbha to be stationed in the Underworld, actually treating him as an abandoned child. Although he later added a lot of creatures to the West, he had long been forgotten by the Saints. Today, Ksitigarbha became an Asaint, and the two Saints finally remembered that there was such a person in the West.

"Senior Brother, it seems that our West is really going to rise." Zhunti said with a smile.

"Junior Brother, let's go and pick up Ksitigarbha." Jieyin said with a smile.

"Good!" Zhunti nodded.

But just as they were about to set off, Ksitigarbha's voice appeared in the Primordial World. After Jieyin and Zhunti heard Ksitigarbha's words, they were instantly furious.

"Heavenly Dao is above, I am Ksitigarbha of the West. Since the Underworld was first built, I have been stationed in the Underworld to transport talents for the West, but the West treats me like dregs. Since I was stationed in the Underworld, the West has forgotten me. Therefore, I, Ksitigarbha, hereby notify the Heavenly Dao and the creatures of the Primordial World that from today on, I, Ksitigarbha, am not a person of the West."

After Ksitigarbha finished speaking, a muffled thunder appeared in the sky of the Primordial World, which showed that the Heavenly Dao acknowledged Ksitigarbha's words.

When others betrayed the sect, they didn't actually need to do this, but Ksitigarbha was now in the Asaint realm, and he carried a lot of fortune himself. If he wanted to betray the sect, he must notify the Heavenly Dao.

Just after Ksitigarbha's words fell, Jieyin and Zhunti appeared in the Underworld with gloomy faces. They did not speak, just stared at Ksitigarbha, and the killing intent in their eyes was undisguised.
