Chapter 979 - 341 Wondrous use of incense and wish power, establish Jizo City_2
Memories of previous experiences surfaced in their minds, and in an instant, nearly one hundred thousand Cultivators within the Immortal City were in an uproar, some controlled by the Butu Buddha Gate and filled with terror and anger, others frightened by their own recent experiences.
Yet, when they looked up and saw the figure surrounded by dazzling, brilliant Buddha light above, a sense of inexplicable reverence and awe suddenly welled up in their hearts.
The next moment.
These Cultivators, having freed themselves from the control of the Butu Buddha Gate, knelt down one after another, paying their respects to the esteemed Buddha above, "The Buddha’s compassion is boundless, we thank the master for helping us escape the sea of suffering."
Om!
In a realm imperceptible to ordinary people,
Threads of incense and wish power gathered from all around the Immortal City, falling upon the punitive Buddha figure that was Su Yu.
Merging into that wisp of Divine Soul within Su Yu.
With the infusion of these threads of incense and wish power, Su Yu felt his Divine Soul growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even more so.
His own puppet body had undergone slight yet miraculous changes.
As the incense and wish power converged, a ring of golden, dazzling light seemed to form within Su Yu’s body.
Sensing this change, Su Yu’s expression shifted slightly: "This is...."
Om!
In less than a hundred breaths, the aura of Buddhist Law around Su Yu surged to a new level, and with the blessing of the incense and wish power, his puppet body also underwent significant transformation.
From barely reaching the power comparable to the sixth level of the Divided Spirit Realm, it metamorphosed to a nearly qualitative change, reaching the level of a fifth-grade premium puppet!
Although the puppet body had not reached the fifth-grade premium, comparable to level seven of the Divided Spirit Realm cultivation, Su Yu could feel that, with the blessing of the incense and wish power, the cultivation of his Dao Body Puppet was not inferior to level seven of the Divided Spirit Realm.
This was not about combat strength, but the fundamental cultivation.
This was truly inconceivable.
A shock ran through Su Yu’s heart as the Puppet Heaven Book, which detailed the legacy of the Ancient Yue Immortal Mansion’s Yueshen, resurfaced in his mind. At this moment, he seemed to have realized the true mystery of the Puppet Heaven Book.
Inense and wish power—
This was the true marvelous use of incense and wish power!
In the past, he had seized the incense and wish power from the Butu Buddha Gate, and in the Thunder Dragon Immortal Dynasty, he had set up a Buddha Statue in the form of a Golden Horn that lifted towards the sky to establish awe, allowing the people of the dynasty to worship day and night, collecting incense and wish power.
However, Su Yu had never refined a single thread of that incense and wish power.
Because he could feel that those incense and wish powers were of no use to him.
Even collecting those incense and wish powers and using them on the Black Riled-up Warrior puppets in the Yueshen Mansion Immortal City didn’t have a significant effect.
Only with the blessing of Divine Skills and the mystical power of incense and will, could their Gods be resurrected.
But beyond bringing back their consciousness, there were no other marvelous uses.
Until this moment.
When the group of Cultivators in the Immortal City were saved by Su Yu’s Dao Body Puppet using Buddhist Law, and a small seed of the Earth Treasury Undying Sutra was planted in their hearts, giving them the subconscious urge to turn towards Buddha,
The sincere kneeling and gratitude these Cultivators showed to the honored Buddha master above when they were saved, created threads of incense and wish power.
It was then that Su Yu understood the marvelous nature of this incense and wish power!
Su Yu’s expression subtly changed, his heart stirred: "This is just a bit of incense and wish power; if it continues or say, gathers the incense and wish power from the entire region of the Immeasurable Immortal Alliance, then this Dao Body Puppet of mine...."
At the same time, Su Yu also realized that to truly obtain the mystical power of the incense and wish power, it required the devout worship of the common people.
The object of worship needed to be himself.
Otherwise, just like plundering the incense and wish power from the Butu Buddha Gate, although the incense and wish power could also be refined by the Black Riled-up Warrior puppets to sustain their Gods or even enhance their strength,
In fact, the real miracle of that incense and wish power could not be actualized by the Black Riled-up Warrior.
"No wonder."
As Su Yu contemplated the changes in his puppet body, he exclaimed in his heart: "No wonder the Buddha Gate places such importance on followers and could carve out their own path that remains unyielding through the eras of a flourishing Immortal Dao."
"This incense and wish power—anyone who has tasted it would be attracted to this sweetness, I presume."
Moreover, with the support of incense and wish power, cultivation would likely be much easier than the pursuit of the Immortal Dao.
Looking at it this way, there must also be many powerful followers of the Buddha Gate.
Let’s not mention Buddha Gate.
The evil Buddhist forces of the Butu Buddha Gate, aren’t they also rampaging everywhere outside, even at the cost of any means necessary, to gather followers and incense and wish power?
Truthfully, this incense and wish power, is just too enticing.
Su Yu slowly stood up, looking down at the people who were devoutly kneeling and expressing their gratitude for being saved. Although because of the Earth Treasury Undying Sutra, these people already had a seed of belief in Buddha Gate in their hearts, offering him incense and wish power.
But this seed was actually quite weak and didn’t have much impact.
Wanting to truly convert them into followers obviously required a grand display of Divine Skills.
"The Dao Body Puppet originally could only rely on forging new higher-level puppets time and time again to enhance the combat power of the Dao Body Puppet," Su Yu pondered, "But now, if there is the aid of incense and wish power, perhaps, I can, with the Puppet Heaven Book as my Dao foundation, carve out a new path."
This is the Dao of the Dao Body Puppet!
Perhaps this could allow the Dao Body Puppet to maintain the ’Jizo’ identity of Buddha Gate.
The practice of Buddhist Law by the Dao Body Puppet actually has no effect on the original body.
In that case—
Su Yu fell into deep contemplation.
He had originally planned to go to the former cave dwelling of the Wu Family and have the Golden Horned Heavenly Elephant Buddha Statue absorb the Spirit Vein power and then make a move against Butu Buddha Gate.
To take down the upper echelons of Butu Buddha Gate in one fell swoop, but that would undoubtedly expose the true identity of this guise as Jizo.
After all, the Golden Horned Heavenly Elephant Buddha Statue was too recognizable.
Once the guise was exposed, it might lead to many things getting out of control.
For instance, the Azure Prison Immortal Palace would definitely learn of this news, right?
And what about the Thunder Dragon Immortal Dynasty?
Exposure of the guise would be detrimental to his control of Butu Buddha Gate’s influence in the Immeasurable Immortal Alliance territory and the collection of incense and wish power.
Therefore, it would be best not to use the Golden Horned Heavenly Elephant Buddha Statue if possible.
Previously he had no choice.
To take control of Butu Buddha Gate’s forces here, it was necessary to deploy the Golden Horned Heavenly Elephant Buddha Statue.
But now—
With the blessing of incense and wish power, the Dao Body Puppet’s strength may have the hope of undergoing a qualitative transformation in a short span of time.
He might have the opportunity to achieve this goal relying solely on the strength of the Dao Body Puppet.
’Although doing so might require several decades or even a hundred years to succeed, with my long lifespan, I can completely afford to spend this time,’ Su Yu resolved in his heart.
Thereupon, he decided no longer to proceed to the Wu Family cave dwelling.
Instead, he would take the people of this Immortal City and relocate away from the territory of the Immeasurable Immortal Alliance, temporarily avoiding the edge of Butu Buddha Gate.
Then, relying on the ’followers’ base of this Immortal City, he would chip away at Butu Buddha Gate’s strength time after time, one Immortal City leveraging another to gather strength and improve itself.
Strategically planning, he could also rely on the pressure exerted by other forces from the Long Sky Region to suppress the counterattacks from Butu Buddha Gate. Could the momentum become feasible?
Outside the territory of the Immeasurable Immortal Alliance, between the heavens and Yue Immortal City.
A small Immortal City of a family force at the early stage of the Dividing Spirit Realm was, at this moment, forcefully overtaken and subdued by Su Yu, along with the people of an Immortal City.
He also renamed this small Immortal City to Jizo City.
Su Yu erected a Buddha Statue of his own Dao Body Puppet in the city and set up a high platform to preach the Buddhist Law, with the Buddha light from the Earth Treasury Undying Sutra illuminating all sentient beings.
At the same time, he was also awaiting the response from Butu Buddha Gate.
It had only been three days.
The news of Jizo City had already reached the hands of the Mu Family of Azure Prison Immortal Palace, and the members such as the Divided Spirit noble Mu Ting and the Family Head of Mu Family were utterly shocked upon hearing it.
"What?"
"Jizo Bodhisattva went to the territory of the Immeasurable Immortal Alliance and ended up leading the people of an Immortal City away, and also established a Jizo City outside!?"
They were a bit bewildered, filled with astonishment and doubt, wondering what kind of move this was.
What on earth did this Jizo Bodhisattva intend to do!
What do you think?
