Chapter 410: The Great Qin Dynasty

Chapter 410: Chapter 410: The Great Qin Dynasty

"Rumble—"

Thunder roared, the world's rejection of the Buddha's presence growing stronger. Even within the isolated environment of the golden clouds, everyone could feel the overwhelming pressure of the heavenly might.

"Infinite Life Buddha—"

From within the white light, the Buddha's majestic voice resonated once more, prompting everyone to bow respectfully.

Gradually, the gap in the sky began to close, as if sealing off the passage.

"Farewell, Buddha—"

Amitabha, Returning, and Golden Cicada Buddhas called out almost simultaneously.

"Farewell, Buddha—"

Everyone echoed in unison.

The passage grew smaller and smaller, until only a tiny slit remained.

"Hmm?—"

A puzzled sound came from the other side of the passage. But it was too late; the slit closed, and the passage was sealed.

At that moment, Zhong Shan stood up, his body lightly shaking, small currents of electricity flickering across his skin. His eyes gleamed with excitement. Unexpectedly, the Great Annihilation Assembly had allowed him to break through to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage!

It was a cause for celebration. Of course, Zhong Shan wasn't the only one who had increased his cultivation. Not far away, another Nascent Soul stage observer had also broken through. Zhong Shan's success owed much to the Baji Tianwei.

Opening his eyes, Zhong Shan quickly assessed the situation. A cold smile tugged at his lips, but he said nothing.

The white light had ceased, and the Dharma images of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats in the sky had stopped rotating, gradually stabilizing.

The endless golden clouds were slowly dissipating. Had the Great Annihilation Assembly concluded?

For nearly two hours, the Assembly had been about opening a passage to the "upper realm" and receiving the Buddha's light. Unexpectedly, the Buddha had bestowed three divine treasures this time.

"Infinite Life Buddha—"

Golden Cicada Buddha intoned, looking at Zhong Tian.

Not only Golden Cicada, but Amitabha, Returning, and the Bodhisattvas, as well as the Arhats, all turned their gazes to Zhong Tian. This outsider Arhat had received two out of the three divine treasures bestowed by the Buddha, treasures that should have belonged to the Pure Land.

However, this was the Buddha's decision. No one dared to challenge it.

"Tian'er!" Zhong Shan suddenly called out.

Zhong Tian immediately stood up. Everyone watched him closely, for he was the biggest beneficiary of this Great Annihilation Assembly.

"Father!" Zhong Tian responded, walking over.

Everyone's eyes were on the father and son, their presence too sensitive here.

"The Buddha bestowed two treasures upon you?" Zhong Shan asked, giving a subtle signal only the two of them understood. It was a coded message Zhong Shan had taught Zhong Tian long ago: "Sacrifice the pawn to save the queen, mixing truth and falsehood."

Zhong Tian, having spent the most time with Zhong Shan, immediately understood.

"No, only one treasure!" Zhong Tian shook his head. RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

"Oh?" Zhong Shan feigned surprise.

"I listen to my father!" Zhong Tian immediately took on the appearance of a filial son.

A peculiar father and son duo — fools?

Fools? Only those who couldn't see through things would think so. Some sly and powerful individuals gradually began to see something special about this father and son pair.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~"

Just as everyone was speaking, in the distance at the entrance of the Pure Land, there was a loud noise, and a dozen monks were suddenly thrown in.

"Huh?"

Everyone looked strangely towards the direction of the entrance. Who? Who dared to intrude into the Pure Land?

Slowly walking out from the entrance of the Pure Land was a man dressed in golden robes.

Bai Ye? Zhong Shan looked in astonishment at Bai Ye, who carried the Ninth-grade Fiendish Blade on his back. Could it be? Is this kid asking for death? How dare he invade the Pure Land?

"Ah~~~~~~~~~~"

The three Buddhas instantly disappeared from their original positions and, in a flash, appeared at the entrance of the Pure Land.

The onlooking Bodhisattvas and Luo Hans flew over together.

Zhong Shan and his son had the lowest cultivation, so they arrived last.

But when they got closer, they found that Bai Ye was not half-dead as expected. Instead, he had a proud attitude, holding a green tiger talisman in his hand. The three Buddhas stared at him, with Buddha Golden Cicada speaking to him.

"Who are you?" Buddha Golden Cicada asked in a deep voice.

"I am Bai Ye, the Martial Peace Duke of the Great Qin Dynasty!" Bai Ye said solemnly.

Great Qin Dynasty? Almost everyone was stunned. Great Qin Dynasty? Where did the Great Qin Dynasty come from? In the Divine Land, there were only the Great Luo, Great Departure, and Taishui, the three Great Dynasties. When did a Great Qin Dynasty appear? Is this guy insane?

Even the Great Qin Emperor's Dynasty didn't exist. How could there be a Great Qin Dynasty?

Everyone looked at Bai Ye as if he were a fool, except for Buddha Golden Cicada, whose pupils suddenly contracted as if seeing a ghost. Great Qin? Great Qin?

"Great Qin? Which Great Qin?" Buddha Golden Cicada asked uncertainly.

Zhong Shan looked at Buddha Golden Cicada with suspicion. Could there really be a Great Qin Dynasty?

"Are you the Golden Cicada Buddha?" Bai Ye asked in a deep voice.

"I am," Buddha Golden Cicada replied.

Bai Ye stared at Buddha Golden Cicada and smiled slightly. "The Emperor instructed me to find you directly and tell you his imperial title. His name is 'Ying'!"

"Ying?" Buddha Golden Cicada's eyes widened.

"Ying? Is it really him? How is this possible? He didn't die? No, he must have died. Could he have reincarnated? But that doesn't make sense," Buddha Golden Cicada looked puzzled and uncertain.

Bai Ye smiled faintly and handed the green tiger talisman to Buddha Golden Cicada.

"The Emperor instructed me to hand this talisman to you, urging you to fulfill your promise from the past and deliver 'Hou Tu' as soon as possible," Bai Ye said with a smirk.

"Hmph~~~~~~~~~~" Amitabha snorted coldly, as if the mention of 'Hou Tu' struck a forbidden chord in his heart.
