Chapter 303: Chapter 225: The Blessing Vajra!

Chapter 225: The Blessing Vajra!

The appearance of the Shennong Cauldron breathed new life into the list, signifying that the treasures to follow would all be innate spirit treasures. Most of the spectators watching the list were primarily eager to see innate spirit treasures. Although post-heavenly supreme treasures could be powerful, they paled in comparison to innate spirit treasures, and all cultivators were eagerly awaiting the reveal.

They had all heard tales about the famous treasures wielded by the mighty figures in the Primordial Era, and while they could imagine their power, they had never seen them with their own eyes. Now, having the chance to witness these powerful weapons from the Primordial Era, they were unwilling to miss it. More importantly, they were excited to see the weapons that ranked higher on the list.

The weapons that had appeared earlier were ranked too low, and some were even familiar to them. Only the higher-ranked innate treasures, and especially the supreme ones, were the true reason they were watching this list.

As the next ranking was revealed, this time, no unfamiliar name like Ye Tian appeared. The treasures and their owners were all well-known powerhouses from the Primordial Era.

Most people had at least heard of these weapons, and some had even seen them in person, so there was no shock this time.

[Weapon List Rank No. 60: The Blessing Vajra, Low-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, Owner: Zhunti]

[The Blessing Vajra is immensely powerful and extremely durable. It can crush anything, and its attack power is tremendous!]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: This is the treasure of Saint Zhunti. Although it's not the one he uses most often, the fact that it ranks so highly shows that the two Western Saints have many powerful treasures!]

[Taiyi Zhenren: What's the use of such a strong treasure? Saint Zhunti's power far surpasses the need for such things, yet he still won't give any of them to you. Don't you find that strange?]

[Manjushri Bodhisattva: Saints have their own considerations. How could they casually give such things to ordinary disciples? You, a nobody from who-knows-where, wouldn't understand!]

[Samantabhadra Bodhisattva: This treasure doesn't have many opportunities to be used. Keeping it in the hands of Saint Zhunti is the best choice.]

Taiyi Zhenren's words were clearly meant to stir up trouble. He knew that such treasures were no ordinary items. Even though a saint might not need an innate spirit treasure, they wouldn't casually hand it over to their disciples either.

Only when a disciple had achieved great merit might they have a chance to receive one. Otherwise, even for saints, innate spirit treasures were not easy to come by. Carelessly giving them to disciples would be a grave mistake. Innate spirit treasures are rare, even among quasi-saints, and there are many of those. Handing them out recklessly to Buddhist disciples could bring even greater disasters.

[Ancestor Minghe: This is just the first one. Zhunti likely has better treasures, which should appear later on the list!]

[Sun Wukong: These saints, one after another, who knows how many treasures they've hoarded. Yet, they won't give us even one. Do you really think they need these things?]

[Erlang Shen: Saints are saints because of their overwhelming power. Of course, powerful people have more treasures. Isn't it normal? You, monkey, have the nerve to talk about saints so casually!]

[Nezha: The Blessing Vajra is an innate spirit treasure. Even though it ranks lower, it still surpasses most other treasures in the Primordial Era. It's incredibly valuable. How could they just hand it out to disciples?]

[Kong Xuan: Whether or not a disciple receives it depends on Saint Zhunti's will. What use is your chatter here? It won't change anything.]

[Guangchengzi: This treasure's functionality is limited. Aside from smashing people, I doubt it has any other use!]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: Isn't your Overturning Seal the same? This is an innate spirit treasure with immense power!]

Though the Blessing Vajra had a singular use, the Buddhist Bodhisattvas were unwilling to let it be belittled so openly. After all, no matter how powerful a treasure is, some people will always be bold enough to downplay its value.

Regardless, these Bodhisattvas were determined to stop the slander.

[Zhunti: A treasure belongs to the one who is destined to have it. I will not gift it randomly. Innate spirit treasures are extremely rare in the Primordial Era. If anyone claims they are easy to come by, let them step forward, and I'll see for myself!]

Saints are usually calm by nature, but the unchecked chatter in the livestream had crossed the line, almost as if they no longer respected him. Zhunti couldn't allow this disrespect to continue.

When they saw the saint speaking directly, everyone realized that a saint had been watching them all along. If they continued to say anything more, they risked drawing the saint's ire.

[Zhunti: The Blessing Vajra, being an innate spirit treasure, holds immense power. However, it is not easy to control. Without sufficient strength, it could very well harm its wielder.]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: Saint Zhunti need not explain further. If they dare speak again, just suppress them all!]

The conversation about this treasure quickly passed, but everyone now understood that while everyone could speak in the livestream, it was not wise to casually comment on certain treasures. A saint's dignity must never be challenged.

If anyone said something too offensive, even if it wasn't particularly bad, as long as the saint was displeased, they could suppress them at will. This was the law of the strong.

Without the power to resist, those who didn't want to be treated harshly could only keep quiet and not speak carelessly. Otherwise, they would only face pain.

Even Sun Wukong understood that the saints would never allow those weaker than themselves to act with impunity in front of them.

From the start, Sun Wukong had only been speaking about the Buddha. Though the Buddha was not a saint, his status in Buddhism was incredibly high. For most, speaking to the Buddha the way Sun Wukong did would have been impossible.

If someone else had done so, they would have been punished by the Buddhists. Sun Wukong, however, had not faced such punishment because he had already been noticed by the Buddha.

Being suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain was already a significant punishment. If it had been any other ordinary demon, they would likely have been converted by Buddhism. But Sun Wukong could not be treated the same way.

The Buddha needed Sun Wukong, a role in the Journey to the West that was irreplaceable and could not be omitted.

The Buddha also had to ensure Sun Wukong did not encounter any accidents, as the monkey was fond of stirring up trouble. If Sun Wukong provoked a powerful figure from the Primordial Era and was killed, it would be a big problem.

Suppressing him under the Five Elements Mountain was, in a way, a protective measure.


Chapter 304: Chapter 226: The Saint's Foundation!

Chapter 226: The Saint's Foundation!

The rankings of the Weapon List continued to be announced.

[Weapon List Rank 59: Dinghai Beads, Low Grade Innate Spirit Treasure. Owner: Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp.]

[The Dinghai Beads contain a vast internal space capable of transforming into all things, storing various items, and suppressing individuals. It also holds the power of the Four Seas!]

[Guangchengzi: Just seeing this thing makes me angry. Burning Lamp stole Zhao Gongming's possession, betrayed Chanism, and actually defected to Buddhism!]

[Sun Wukong: Burning Lamp was originally part of Chanism?]

[Ancestor Minghe: Seems like you don't know much about this. Burning Lamp held a high position in Chanism, he was the Vice Sect Master!]

[Sun Wukong: If he was already the Vice Sect Master, why would he betray Chanism? What's the point of abandoning such a good position to run off to the Western Paradise?]

[Ancestor Minghe: I don't know about that. You'd probably have to ask him yourself!]

[Guangchengzi: That guy has a crooked heart. Even as the Vice Sect Master of Chanism, he was always greedy. Zhao Gongming was a disciple of Jieism, and the Dinghai Beads were a powerful treasure. To get them, Burning Lamp tricked and used others. But he knew that if he stayed in Chanism, he might not be able to keep the treasure he worked so hard to acquire!]

[Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp: It was fate! That item was never meant for him. Even if I hadn't taken it, someone else would have. Besides, I didn't leave Chanism just for the treasure; the teachings of Chanism had no place for me anymore!]

[Taiyi Zhenren: It seems like your time in Buddhism has sharpened your tongue. Even something so straightforward can be twisted by your skewed logic!]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: Please do not slander the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp. In Buddhism, we never take what doesn't belong to us. This treasure was fated to be his, and it wasn't forcibly taken from Zhao Gongming; it was traded from someone else. Your accusations are groundless!]

Whether the acquisition of the Dinghai Beads by the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp was a scheme or a coincidence didn't matter to Chanism. In their eyes, it was a betrayal, something that neither the Primeval Lord of Heaven (Yuanshi Tianzun) nor any disciple of Chanism could ever forgive. Buddhism, Chanism, and Jieism were never meant to coexist peacefully.

At this time, however, the Primeval Lord of Heaven remained silent. While Burning Lamp wasn't as powerful as him, the Buddha had the protection of two Saints from the Western World, so there was no fear on his part.

Moreover, the Primodial World was currently peaceful and stable, with no major conflicts on the horizon. With the next calamity still far off, there was no need for concern.

The events of the Journey to the West were matters between Buddhism and the Heavenly Palace. Neither Chanism nor Jieism had any reason to intervene. Even though both Tongtian Jiaozhu and the Primeval Lord of Heaven were Saints, Zhunti and Jieyin wouldn't let them interfere so easily.

Furthermore, all Burning Lamp did was take something from a junior disciple. Although the Dinghai Beads were powerful, it wasn't enough to draw the full attention of the Saints at this moment.

The Primeval Lord of Heaven might have been upset, as he never expected his trusted Burning Lamp Daoist to become the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp. But by the time the War of the Gods had ended, it was already too late for him to act. Burning Lamp had been hiding in the Western World, out of his reach. Zhunti and Jieyin were always there, so if the Primeval Lord rashly intervened, it would only anger the two Saints.

Now, with the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp making the list through the Dinghai Beads, he had once again caught Chanism's attention.

[Tathagata: Cause and effect are inexorable. If the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp truly did what you claim, he will inevitably face retribution. So perhaps it's best not to dwell on these matters.]

The Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp was now an important figure in Buddhism, and Tathagata Buddha would not allow any mistakes on his part.

[Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp: Let the past remain in the past. Pursuing it further is pointless.]

[Lu Ya: Sigh, it seems he still doesn't realize his mistakes. But Chanism can't deal with him now, so there's nothing you can do about it.]

[Guangchengzi: Don't think you can escape just because you ran to Buddhism. Sooner or later, karma will catch up with you!]

No matter how angry the people of Chanism were, they had no means of dealing with him, as Buddhism had pointed out.

[Sun Wukong: It seems there are many things I don't know. I'm quite intrigued. Unfortunately, being trapped under Five Elements Mountain leaves me with no way to gather information!]

[Haotian Jade Emperor: Not just anyone can know these things. Only those with great power and ancient lineage possess such knowledge. But if you stay obedient under the mountain, I'll send a disciple to tell you some stories!]

[Sun Wukong: That's great! Hurry and send them over. I'm so bored here by myself!]

He had no means of escape, so if the Jade Emperor sent someone to chat with him, he wouldn't feel so lonely.

The Weapon List continued to be revealed.

[Weapon List Rank 55: Five-colored Divine Light, Middle Grade Innate Spirit Treasure. Owner: Kong Xuan.]

[The Five-colored Divine Light can brush away all things, easily breaking any weapon in one's hand!]

There was no doubt about this treasure's ranking, as most had witnessed Kong Xuan's power during the War of the Gods.

Unlike the Ancient Buddha of Burning Lamp, most of them couldn't just hide away and avoid confrontation.

[Dragon King of the East Sea: I've heard of the Five-colored Divine Light before. Now seeing it on the list, it truly lives up to its reputation. I actually think its ranking is a bit low; its effects could be even more formidable!]

[Erlang Shen: Although the technique is powerful, it doesn't mean it's invincible. It's not as overwhelming as you make it out to be.]

Erlang Shen had faced Kong Xuan during the War of the Gods and didn't believe that the treasure in Kong Xuan's hand was that powerful.

What Erlang Shen didn't realize at the time was that when they fought, Kong Xuan hadn't been using his full strength. Had Kong Xuan gone all out, Erlang Shen's Three-pointed Double-edged Lance would have been taken, and he wouldn't have stood a chance against him.

Moreover, Kong Xuan's power far exceeded Erlang Shen's, making any further confrontation pointless.

[Kong Xuan: Erlang Shen, even though you've got an extra eye, your perception is still off. If that third eye of yours isn't working, why not cut it off and stop embarrassing yourself?]
