633: Chapter 633 Buddha, Swastika Seal
Following that was the Future Jinchan Buddha. On the third golden lotus, the Jinchan Buddha appeared as if teleporting through space, incredibly mysterious.
Hun Tiandi's cold eyes were like lightning, filled with disbelief.
On the second golden lotus, a Buddha with a merit halo above his head had appeared at some unknown time. Hun Tiandi didn't know when he had arrived; it was as if he had always been there.
A massive Buddha with a square face and a burly physique—the Present Guiyuan Buddha!
As soon as the three great Buddhas of the Cangtian Holy Land appeared, they immediately performed a Buddhist salute.
"Amitabha!"
The three Buddhas simultaneously chanted a Buddhist name. However, Hun Tiandi could hear that the sound only came from the left and right, issued by the Past Amitabha Buddha and the Future Jinchan Buddha.
The Present Guiyuan Buddha in the middle did not speak at all.
The spectators did not know, but Hun Tiandi had learned from Princess Zixun about the Present Guiyuan Buddha.
His strength was number one in the Cangtian Holy Land, and he was practicing the Cangtian Holy Land's Heaven Rank Dou Skill: the Silent Immovable Chan.
Before the cultivation was fully completed, he could not speak.
"Amitabha!"
Over twenty Bodhisattvas bowed slightly to the three Buddhas.
"Amitabha!"
The five hundred Arhats followed with a slight bow. Above their heads was the Sea of Merit Clouds of the Cangtian Holy Land. Boundless merit gathered, condensing the Merit Dharma Images of the Arhats, Bodhisattvas, and Buddhas in the sky.
"Om!"
Mituo Buddha's majestic voice spread out, echoing throughout the Cangtian Grand Assembly.
"Om, Mani, Padme, Hum..."
Immediately, numerous Bodhisattvas began chanting the Six-Character Mantra, while the five hundred Arhats on the periphery joined in reciting Buddhist scriptures.
The sound was like a great bell, and the Zen chanting echoed, powerful enough to shatter one's body.
For a moment, Buddhist sounds permeated above the Buddhas. Golden light radiated from the Arhats, and the endless golden mountain ranges surrounding the Buddhas were instantly shrouded in countless clouds and mist.
The sound grew more grand and higher. Even with Hun Tiandi's cultivation, it was somewhat difficult to endure.
Ripples appeared in the surrounding air, like a lake surface with waves, impacting all directions.
Buzz...
Everyone was momentarily deafened. The surrounding Arhats continued their chanting, yet Hun Tiandi could not hear a single sound.
Narrowing his eyes, he looked around. The spectators were all looking at each other; everyone had lost their hearing.
The Buddhist altar had disappeared. All that met the eye was golden mist, which even soul power could not peer through.
In the golden mist, no sound could be heard.
The five hundred Arhats formed eighteen circles and began to rotate. With the three Buddhas at the center, the Arhats and Bodhisattvas all spun in concentric circles.
Hun Tiandi rubbed his eyes and found that everyone was still in their original places.
The Cangtian Grand Ceremony? How silent and desolate?
Looking up at the sky, the dharma images were rotating, forming a massive halo. Mituo, Guiyuan, and Jinchan bowed piously.
The silence lasted for about an hour.
Rumble!
A sudden explosion, a super-loud bang, like the lightning tribulation drawn by a Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill, thundered in their ears. For a moment, everyone's mind fell into a daze.
Everyone looked at the sky; a crack opened in the halo within the dharma images.
Boom...
A series of rumbles followed as the crack grew wider, shining down countless rays of white light.
Om, Mani, Padme, Hum...
Six grand Buddhist sounds drifted down. These sounds were unlike those previously emitted by the Bodhisattvas; they seemed to come from beyond the heavens—celestial Buddhist sounds that shouldn't exist in this world.
This sound was somewhat pleasant to hear, making people piously devoted without realizing it.
Hun Tiandi frowned slightly. Primarily, as the white light poured down from the crack, everyone felt comfortable, as if it could purify the impurities of their bodies.
Even the spectators quickly sat cross-legged, bathing in the celestial white light.
As everyone sat cross-legged, Hun Tiandi did the same.
Within Hun Tiandi's Sea of Consciousness, the God Refining Art was activated, frantically refining and devouring this mysterious energy.
While others were bathing in the white light to purify themselves, Hun Tiandi was plundering it to refine his own energy.
Hun Tiandi was like a black vortex, devouring and plundering the infinite white light.
On the three-grade golden lotuses, the three great Buddhas stared intently at Hun Tiandi, different glints flashing in their eyes.
This was the benefit of the Cangtian Grand Ceremony: celestial Buddhist light that purified the body. Almost all the spectators received some favor.
Perhaps some could gain insights into higher realms.
This was also the foundation upon which the Cangtian Holy Land became an overlord.
Some even entered the Cangtian Holy Land and converted to Buddhism.
Hun Tiandi pushed the God Refining Art to its limit, refining the source energy to heal his soul injuries. The Soul Sword hummed, slowly repairing the cracks.
The three great Buddhas only glanced at him before joining hands, forming a circle.
Moo...
Suddenly, a deep Buddhist sound erupted, and the crack split open further. The three great Buddhas were excited.
Buddhist sounds permeated the air, and a vast aura filled the Buddhist altar.
"Greetings, Lord Buddha!" Mituo Buddha and Jinchan Buddha said with utmost respect.
Lord Buddha? Almost everyone opened their eyes, looking at the milky-white light falling from the crack.
Hun Tiandi was extremely goal-oriented. Even for Lord Buddha, he would wait until he finished cultivating; healing his injuries was the most important thing.
"Amitabha!"
A majestic voice came from the crack, filled with endless authority, making people unconsciously bow down.
Rumble!
The lightning tribulation became violent, rumbling incessantly, looking angrily at those who didn't follow the rules and were resisting Lord Buddha's appearance.
Huang Yan, who was flying on the periphery, was one such person.
Within the crack, golden light flickered—it was three Buddhist treasures!
The first was a string of Buddhist beads, crystal clear and brimming with seven-colored light. There were one hundred and eight beads in total, incredibly mysterious; one look could make a person lose themselves.
The Seven-Colored Buddhist Beads bestowed by Lord Buddha.
The second was a weapon, something like a disc with twenty-four patterns on it. Looking closely, it seemed like a world, representing twenty-four worlds—the twenty-four heavens divine artifact.
The third was not an object but a golden rune—the Swastika Buddhist Seal.
It was massive, erupting with billions of golden rays as it slowly descended from the crack.
These were the three treasures bestowed by Lord Buddha.
Everyone was shocked. The Cangtian Holy Land was already powerful enough in the Central Plains. Earlier, a Jinchan Buddha had appeared, and now they had three more Buddhist treasures; they would be even more overbearing in the future.
Mituo, Guiyuan, and Jinchan all showed excited expressions, waiting for the three Buddhist treasures to fall.
The Seven-Colored Buddhist Beads slowly flew toward Jinchan Buddha.
"Thank you, Lord Buddha!" Jinchan Buddha said with pious devotion and great respect.
Jinchan Buddha took them and was waiting for the other two treasures, but the Swastika Buddhist Seal slowly flew toward the spectators.
It headed toward where Hun Tiandi was sitting cross-legged. The three great Buddhas, in particular, were stunned.
Lord Buddha wanted to give it to Hun Tiandi?
The Swastika Buddhist Seal directly entered Hun Tiandi's Sea of Consciousness and disappeared. The twenty-four heavens divine artifact circled around him, erupting with brilliant light that covered the sky. The three great Buddhas' expressions turned cold, but since Lord Buddha's gaze was still present, they didn't show any abnormality.
Rumble!
Lightning flowed as the Fighting Qi Continent's world will grew more repulsed by Lord Buddha. In the silent environment, a powerful heavenly might could be felt.
"Amitabha!"
Lord Buddha's majestic voice came from the white light, and everyone responded respectfully.
The crack in the sky gradually disappeared, and the passage closed.
"Farewell, Lord Buddha!" the three great Buddhas said deeply, and everyone else did the same.
When only a sliver of space remained of the crack...
"Eh?"
A sound of doubt came from Lord Buddha within the passage, but it was too late. The crack had closed. On the periphery of the viewing platform, Hun Tiandi opened his eyes.
A gleam of light appeared in his eyes; his soul injuries were finally healed.
Hun Tiandi scanned his surroundings, a wicked smile playing on his lips, but he didn't speak.
He reached out, and the twenty-four heavens divine artifact fell into his hand. The white light vanished, and the dharma images of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats disappeared.
The Cangtian Grand Ceremony was over!
"Amitabha!"
Jinchan Buddha chanted a Buddhist name, looking at the divine artifact in Hun Tiandi's hand. The Bodhisattvas and Arhats did the same.
An outsider had actually obtained two benefits; this was Lord Buddha's decision.
"Jinchan Buddha, Lord Buddha just bestowed this Buddhist treasure. This Sect Leader returns it to the Cangtian Holy Land!"
Hun Tiandi spoke first.
"Hmm? Weren't there two?" Mituo Buddha asked coldly.
"Lord Buddha transmitted a realization that can only be sensed, not spoken. It's sealed within that symbol and cannot be expressed!"
Hun Tiandi shook his head.
Hiss!
Everyone was shocked. An insight from Lord Buddha? This luck was truly unparalleled.
Of course, if it was an insight, it wasn't a physical treasure and couldn't be taken out.
The three great Buddhas looked coldly at Hun Tiandi; this youth's future would be limitless.
"Could it be that Lord Buddha wants to take me as a disciple?" Hun Tiandi said with surprise. As Lord Buddha's disciple, who would dare kill him?
"Amitabha!" Mituo Buddha spoke. "In that case, you may leave, but the twenty-four heavens divine artifact must stay."
"Very well!" Hun Tiandi smiled and flicked his finger, sending the twenty-four heavens divine artifact flying toward Mituo Buddha.
Eh?
Everyone was confused. Was this Hun Tiandi a fool? To even give away a Buddhist treasure bestowed by Lord Buddha... he was truly crazy.
Mituo Buddha was very excited as he caught the divine artifact.
