Chapter 474: Chapter 318: Eastern Emperor Splits the Heavens, Taiyi Births Water (Part 2)

How could a Venerate who has refined tens of thousands of ancient realms be a match for one who refines an entire universe?

Clearly, their cultivation cannot be compared.

"But my cultivation is different, I aim to transform into a Great Spirit within a certain universe or ancient realm, not merely refining them."

"I also want to become the source of all beings’ will, soul, and True Spirit within the realm..."

Zhang Fusheng’s mind was racing, to start this step, he had to first choose an ’anchor point’,

or rather, choose the first being to assimilate.

He had planned to start long before,

but upon learning about the Weaver, especially knowing that he was nurtured by the Bodhi Buddha Corpse as an external deity,

Zhang Fusheng made a decision.

The Weaver was undoubtedly the best choice.

Monarch of Ten Thousand Changes... assimilating this person, then the rest of the massive universe would undoubtedly be much simpler!

As thoughts turned, Zhang Fusheng looked at the two siblings, spoke calmly:

"I am not Monarch of Ten Thousand Changes, nor the Weaver, nor an external deity."

Zhang Xuelan and the junior disciple felt their hearts jump to their throats.

She heard this mysterious and terrifying presence continue:

"I am the Buddha, whether you believe it or not, I am indeed here in front of you, as for the Weaver..."

After a pause, Zhang Fusheng first carefully observed Zhang Xuelan and then turned his gaze to the junior disciple,

he finally continued slowly:

"The Weaver has indeed appeared on your planet, transformed into the old Celestial Master of Mount Longhu."

As the words fell, Zhang Xuelan glared angrily, but dared not speak, just snorted.

Zhang Fusheng knew she naturally wouldn’t believe, he didn’t need her belief, so he spoke calmly:

"The old Celestial Master sent you to excavate the original Human Ancestor, perhaps the real purpose is to have you unearth the four divine corpses."

"As for why he doesn’t come himself?"

Zhang Fusheng chuckled and answered himself:

"Because he is a Venerate-level Divine Spirit, that old monk in the Great Buddha Palace is also a Venerate, I guess, he doesn’t want to alarm the Celestial Monk."

Zhang Xuelan coldly stared at the monk in front without speaking.

Zhang Fusheng continued speaking to himself:

"I am not here to stop you, I want you two to really go excavate—be it the Human Ancestor or the four divine corpses."

"All are my desires."

Zhang Xuelan stayed silent, speaking slowly:

"Who exactly are you?"

Zhang Fusheng smiled:

"I told you, I am the Buddha."

He spoke leisurely, beside him blossomed golden lotus flowers, accompanied by Buddha’s Light, Immortal Flower,

and solemn Brahma Sound echoed around.

"Go now, go now."

Zhang Fusheng’s dignified countenance:

"Pursue the divine corpses, pursue the original Human Ancestor, you shall be surrounded by divine protection, unharmed by calamities, untouched by distress, far from disasters..."

He issued decrees, granting blessings to the two youngsters, nearing the end, Zhang Fusheng added:

"Go meet the Celestial Monk, on my lotus pedestal, when he sees you, it’s as if seeing the Buddha, he will listen."

As his words concluded,

Zhang Fusheng pointed a finger, Zhang Xuelan felt her feet lighten.

She looked down, and saw a majestic Vajra Lotus, not knowing when it was already holding her,

behind her came the sound of ’rustling’, she turned abruptly and saw a nine-yard Bodhi quietly swaying.

Zhang Xuelan was stunned, just about to speak, her vision blurred once more.

When everything became clear again, she and the junior disciple appeared once more in the towering Great Buddha Palace.

The Celestial Monk frowned and raised his head, yet suddenly widened his eyes, seeing was a sea of Buddha’s Light and a solemn lotus pedestal, with a nine-yard Bodhi pure and natural....

Behind him came a strange sound,

he turned his head, seeing only the great Buddha Statue making a Flower-picking Smile.

The Celestial Monk stood dazed, watching as the statue opened its mouth, uttered a sound—"Om!"

Like a wake-up slap echoing.

He seemed to awaken from a deep dream, suddenly understanding everything.

Thus, the Celestial Monk turned his head and looked towards the bewildered siblings, speaking deeply:

"Both of you, please follow me, I shall take you to excavate the four divine corpses."

Zhang Xuelan and the junior disciple exchanged glances.

.........

Small inn.

Enlightening a Celestial Monk is simpler than enlightening a mortal—he is already the most devout believer,

merely needed some guidance.

"Zhang Xuelan..."

Zhang Fusheng muttered her name.

The reason he chose this low-cultivation girl wasn’t just because the old Celestial Master selected her too,

but also because Zhang Fusheng, perceiving Cause and Effect, noticed,

this youngster has a deep connection with the matters beneath the Land of Great Treasure, things even he couldn’t fully trace or understand.

In other words.

"If I guessed right, this little girl is the key to unlocking the four divine corpses, right?"

"But, why?"

Zhang Fusheng, newly arrived, couldn’t comprehend what the Weaver intended—nor did he bother thinking.

This universe is just a temporary rest point for him.

In eighteen days, he must return to reality.

So...

"It’s easier to overpower with sheer force."

Zhang Fusheng muttered indifferently, all schemes and calculations, all matters, had nothing to do with him, just forge ahead.

"The four divine corpses need waiting."

"But according to the Celestial Monk, beneath the Shaolin Temple, another divine corpse is suppressed—this corpse nourished the so-called subspace."

"Go see it."

Zhang Fusheng mused, closed his eyes, his thoughts swiftly traversed thousands of miles, descending upon a body offered up to him.

He had already taken the Tathagata Celestial Position,

in this universe, all worshipped Buddha Statues, upon his entry, transformed into his likeness—
