Chapter 458: Chapter 311: Ksitigarbha’s Opportunity, Wu Xian Visits_2
Ksitigarbha spoke solemnly.
Jieyin Saint watched the monk in a kasaya before him, not expecting such determination.
"Alright, you may go."
"Thank you, Master."
Ksitigarbha said.
After receiving permission from Jieyin Saint, Ksitigarbha left Mount Sumeru and headed east.
On Mount Sumeru, Zhunti Saint watched Ksitigarbha’s departing figure and couldn’t help but say,
"Brother, I believe Ksitigarbha has great perseverance. This journey might bring unexpected joy."
Jieyin Saint simply watched Ksitigarbha’s distant figure and did not respond.
Ksitigarbha headed east, leaving the Western Primordial and found the Innate Spiritual Energy in the Primordial extremely dense.
He couldn’t help but think that perhaps the reason his Master and elder wanted to repair the earth veins of the Western Primordial was for this purpose.
Following his instincts, he continued on his way and unknowingly arrived above the Blood Sea.
He looked at the Boundless Blood Sea, with no fear in his heart, and continued forward.
A figure emerged from the Blood Sea; it was Daoist Ming He’s Blood God’s Son, who blocked Ksitigarbha and asked,
"Who are you?"
Ksitigarbha looked calmly at the figure and replied,
"I am Ksitigarbha, a disciple of Jieyin Saint. I am here to seek an audience with Lady Ping Xin."
A Saint’s disciple?
Daoist Ming He pondered for a moment, and then Blood God’s Son merged back into the Blood Sea, clearing the way for Ksitigarbha.
Ksitigarbha did not pay much attention but continued following his instincts until he reached a separated part of the Blood Sea.
Feeling he had arrived at the right place, he held his tin staff, hovering above the Blood Sea.
"I, monk Ksitigarbha, specifically request to see Lady Ping Xin."
Ksitigarbha bowed respectfully.
In the Netherworld Great World, where Ping Xin presided over the Six Paths of Reincarnation, hearing Ksitigarbha’s words and sensing his Buddhist foundation, she chose to ignore him.
Ksitigarbha did not receive a response, but he was not in a hurry, as his Master had once mentioned that he and Lady Ping Xin were on bad terms.
Thus, Ksitigarbha patiently waited, periodically requesting an audience with Lady Ping Xin.
A hundred years swiftly passed, and Ksitigarbha was still persistently waiting.
Meanwhile, another figure appeared not far from Ksitigarbha, who respectfully said,
"Wu Xian of the Witch Clan, seeks an audience with Houtu Ancestor Witch."
Lady Ping Xin opened her eyes and looked at Wu Xian. With a thought, Ghost Gate appeared in front of Wu Xian.
Wu Xian immediately understood and entered the Ghost Gate.
Without hesitation, Ksitigarbha followed Wu Xian and entered the Ghost Gate as well.
Seeing this, Lady Ping Xin frowned slightly but did not speak, implicitly allowing Ksitigarbha’s actions.
Ksitigarbha passed through the Ghost Gate and arrived at the lowest level of the Eighteen Layers of Hell, where evil ghosts who had not repented while suffering extreme punishment accumulated, unable to reincarnate.
They could only endlessly endure torture while filled with malice.
Nurtured by the yin energy of the Netherworld Great World, these evil ghosts also grew increasingly powerful.
As Ksitigarbha stepped into this place, countless evil ghosts lunged at him.
Suddenly, a Sixth Grade Merit Golden Lotus appeared beneath Ksitigarbha’s feet, isolating all the evil ghosts outside.
This Sixth Grade Merit Golden Lotus originated from the seeds of the Twelve-Grade Merit Golden Lotus obtained by Jieyin Saint, which then Ksitigarbha nurtured with his own merit, having now blossomed six grades.
This was not the limit; with sufficient merit, it could potentially blossom up to eleven grades.
As for why Jieyin Saint did not directly grant an eleven-grade lotus platform like Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had done, it was because Jieyin Saint also lacked merit.
After all, the forty-eight grand vows set by Jieyin Saint and Zhunti Saint required repayment.
Ksitigarbha looked at the endless evil ghosts in Hell, witnessing their suffering and felt boundless compassion welling up in his heart.
He sat on the lotus platform, continuously reciting Buddhist scriptures, trying to enlighten the countless evil ghosts.
Wu Xian, after passing through the Ghost Gate, came directly to the Six Paths Reincarnation Plate and appeared near Lady Ping Xin.
Upon seeing Lady Ping Xin, Wu Xian immediately bowed deeply and said, "Greetings, Houtu Ancestor Witch."
Lady Ping Xin looked at Wu Xian before her, and said in an even tone, "I am Ping Xin of Earthly Hell, no longer reverting to Houtu Ancestor Witch."
Wu Xian instantly understood, but he still insisted, "Regardless, you are the Houtu Ancestor Witch of our Witch Clan."
Hearing this, Lady Ping Xin did not argue. Didn’t she, too, wish to still be the Ancestor Witch Houtu of the Witch Clan?
She also understood the precarious situation back then—if her elder brother, Di Jiang Ancestor Witch, had not stood up, the consequences would have likely been even more severe.
"What brings you to Earthly Hell this time?"
Lady Ping Xin asked directly.
Wu Xian looked at Lady Ping Xin and forthrightly inquired, "May I ask the Ancestor Witch, what is in the future for our Witch Clan?"
Lady Ping Xin did not expect Wu Xian to ask such a question and was at a loss for words for a moment.
After all, the future she perceived did not bode well for the Witch Clan in the boundless outcomes.
Seeing Lady Ping Xin silent, Wu Xian felt he already knew the answer.
He spoke again, "Since the Ancestor Witch transformed into the cycle of reincarnation, Di Jiang Ancestor Witch and the other Ancestor Witches analyzed the attitudes of the Saints and realized the likely perilous outcome for our clan."
"Later, Ancestor Witch Zhu Jiuyin expended a vast amount of vital energy, walking through the River of Time, trying to foresee the future, yet found no chance of survival."
"As one of the top forces in Primordial, our clan faces such a dire situation, a predicament created by the combined forces of Saints," Wu Xian said with a wry smile.
Lady Ping Xin, looking at Wu Xian before her, couldn’t help but say, "If your elder brother wishes, he can lead the Witch Clan into the Netherworld Great World. Much like the Demon Clan, withdrawing from the struggles of the Primordial Continent, perhaps I can preserve the Witch Clan."
Upon hearing Lady Ping Xin’s words, Wu Xian’s expression did not show joy.
"Houtu Ancestor Witch, everyone in Primordial knows The Three Pure Ones are the orthodox lineage of Pangu, likely too proud."
"However, our Witch Clan is also descendants of Pangu, possessing our own pride."
"The Ancestor Witches fought against heaven and earth, and even in death, they merely return to the embrace of Father God."
"Was it not with such a thought that Houtu Ancestor Witch herself transformed into reincarnation?"
"To now ask the Ancestor Witches to retreat from this realm would be exceedingly difficult."
Considering her own elder brother, she understood even if they were offered her protection, they would likely refuse.
Thinking about this, her heart also unavoidably sank. Where is the way out for the Witch Clan?
"Moreover, the Demon Clan is safe because the Emperor Jun is powerful, aided by Nuwa Saint, able to fully withstand the other five Saints."
"Does Houtu Ancestor Witch now have the confidence to oppose the other five Saints?"
Hearing this, Lady Ping Xin fell silent once again.
With the Six Paths of Reincarnation, she was confident in opposing one Saint, as she was the last to become a Saint and had the greatest restrictions; being able to oppose one was already commendable.
To oppose five, she likely would end up sealed.
"Do you have any ideas?"
Lady Ping Xin inquired.
"The other Ancestor Witches do not know of my coming here; they do not wish for Houtu Ancestor Witch to be involved in the affairs of the Witch Clan again."
Hearing this, Lady Ping Xin’s mind involuntarily returned to the decision made by Di Jiang Ancestor Witch.
"Brother."
After a long while, Wu Xian then continued, "This time I have come seeking the help of Houtu Ancestor Witch for two matters."
"Which two matters?"
Lady Ping Xin quickly asked.
Wu Xian has always been respected as a Sage of the Witch Clan, he might still have some ideas. freёwebnoѵel.com
Just as Wu Xian was about to speak, a compassionate and gentle voice suddenly echoed throughout Earthly Hell.
"I am Ksitigarbha, observing the endless suffering of evil ghosts in Hell who still refuse to repent and cannot reincarnate, my heart is filled with compassion."
"I hereby vow to save these endless evil ghosts."
"If Hell is not empty, I vow not to attain Buddhahood!"
Upon hearing these words, Houtu Ancestor Witch was moved, and in an instant, she saw the situation of Ksitigarbha in Hell.
