422: Wang Buddha came to the rescue

Medicine Master King Buddha's doubts were not unfounded; it was just that he had never expected Xiao Zhuo's Time-Space Dao Fruit to be formed from a origin supreme treasure, its power so immense as to be almost inconceivable.

Furthermore, Xiao Zhuo's Dao Principle of Freedom controls wan fa (myriad laws), and now that he has entered the Quasi-Immortal realm, his control has reached the Transcendent stage.

To achieve time-space reset, though not foolproof, it is as easy as turning over his hand.

After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, his gaze fell upon His Majesty and Queen Mother of the West.

Their eyes flickered slightly, and their Divine Thought subtly undulated, clearly discussing something in secret via telepathy.

A moment later, His Majesty turned to Xiao Zhuo and said apologetically, "Daoist Friend Wang! Tian Xi and I have discussed this, and we wonder if you could first set up a time-space reset barrier, so we can witness its power firsthand? If this method is feasible, then please ask the King Buddha to proceed with the rescue, with your time-space reset method as the final safeguard."

Xiao Zhuo nodded, "Since Your Majesty has this intention, I naturally have no objection."

With that, he raised his hand and drew an invisible area in the empty space within the room.

Though invisible to the naked eye, all present were Peak Quasi-Immortals, and they could all clearly perceive the subtle changes in the time-space fluctuations within it.

At Xiao Zhuo's signal, Queen Mother of the West immediately ordered someone to bring a squirrel-shaped Immortal Beast and place it within the reset area.

Before the Immortal Beast could react, Queen Mother of the West clenched her jade hand in the Void Realm, and the Immortal Beast's Divine Soul was instantly stripped away!

The illusory Divine Soul was terrified, struggling desperately, but it was firmly confined by an invisible great power, unable to move.

Immediately after, Queen Mother of the West lightly tapped her jade finger, and a sharp golden light instantly pierced through the Immortal Beast's Divine Soul's glabella! The soul body immediately began to collapse.

Just at this moment, Xiao Zhuo formed a hand seal and activated the time-space reset!

The time and space within that area suddenly froze, then rapidly flowed backward!

The collapsing Divine Soul of the Immortal Beast recovered at a visible speed, and the golden light shot back out, disappearing without a trace.

Finally, the Immortal Beast's Divine Soul returned to its Physical Body completely intact, looking bewildered as it looked around, trembling in fear from the many terrifying auras.

"Daoist Friend Wang's time-space reset is indeed miraculous!" Medicine Master King Buddha's eyes flashed with a strange light, but he still had doubts, "However, this beast is only at the Quasi-Immortal level, whereas Imperial Son Yu Pan is a Golden Immortal Peak, a half-step Grand Unity existence. I wonder if Daoist Friend can guarantee that performing this technique on him will be just as effortless?"

Time-space type Divine Abilities become exponentially more difficult to affect more powerful existences. The King Buddha's question was also what His Majesty and Queen Mother of the West were thinking, and their gazes simultaneously turned to Xiao Zhuo, awaiting his reply.

"Fellow Daoists, rest assured." Xiao Zhuo smiled faintly, his tone confident and implying a deeper meaning, "When this Venerable One makes a move, even the bodies of you Fellow Daoists can be influenced to some extent."

"Amitabha! Excellent! This old monk has no further objections!" Hearing this, the King Buddha clasped his palms together and chanted a Buddhist prayer.

His Majesty and Queen Mother of the West's gazes towards Xiao Zhuo, however, suddenly deepened by several degrees.

The time-space great power displayed by this "Wang Xuan" made them feel apprehensive, but fortunately, there was no enmity between the two sides.

"In that case, we trouble you two Fellow Daoists to quickly save my son!" The two said in unison.

"Mm."

"Excellent!"

Xiao Zhuo raised his hand and set up a time-space reset barrier that enveloped the cold jade bed, then said to His Majesty, "Your Majesty, the item this Venerable One seeks this time is only one nine-revolution golden elixir. If the Imperial Son is successfully rescued this time, would Your Majesty be willing to bestow this elixir upon me?"

Originally, he wanted to ask for a origin supreme treasure in addition to the nine-revolution golden elixir, but since His Majesty only needed him to set up a barrier as a backup and not personally participate in the healing, the conditions naturally decreased accordingly.

Compared to a origin supreme treasure, he was more interested in this nine-revolution golden elixir.

A origin supreme treasure was simply material for exchanging Attribute Points for him now, but the nine-revolution golden elixir could significantly strengthen his Physical Body and enhance his strength.

Moreover, once he obtained the physical item, he could later use resource conversion to directly consume Attribute Points to exchange for it.

Xiao Zhuo's attribute panel's resource conversion either converts some unknown items with uncontrollable attributes, or it must be items that Xiao Zhuo has analyzed.

Theoretically, only things he has seen can be continuously exchanged through the resource conversion function.

Otherwise, merely stating requirements might not yield what he needs.

Furthermore, too many customized requests would exponentially increase the consumption of Attribute Points, just like exchanging for a origin supreme treasure. A normal random exchange might cost only 100 million, but customization would double that, and adding fixed attributes would further increase the attribute point consumption.

His Majesty hesitated for only a moment before nodding in agreement, "To receive Daoist Friend Wang's assistance is truly my son's fortune. What Daoist Friend seeks, I shall naturally grant!"

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Xiao Zhuo's eyes, and he nodded in acknowledgment.

On the other side, Medicine Master King Buddha, having received His Majesty's approval and seeing that Xiao Zhuo's profound and unfathomable time-space reset barrier was already set up, dispelled all his concerns.

He assumed a solemn posture, proclaimed a Buddhist chant, and stepped into the barrier, sitting cross-legged before the cold jade bed.

His gaunt hands slowly formed a seal, and a grand, compassionate Sanskrit chant began to rise.

In an instant, twelve illusory, glazed Divine Generals of various forms—some holding staffs, some wielding swords, some carrying pagodas, some forming seals—majestically emerged from behind him, standing in twelve directions, firmly protecting the cold jade bed and Imperial Son Yu Pan's Divine Soul in the center!

A powerful protective force, impenetrable by wan fa (myriad laws) and indestructible, permeated the air.

"Twelve Yaksha Generals Dharma Protector Seal, stabilize!" The King Buddha whispered.

The light from the twelve Divine Generals' illusions surged, transforming into twelve brilliant glazed pillars of light that thundered into Imperial Son Yu Pan's Divine Soul! The Divine Soul, which was ethereal and unstable due to the erosion of Dao injuries, was instantly stabilized by a vast power, as if supported by invisible heavenly pillars, and its tendency to dissipate abruptly ceased.

Immediately after, Medicine Master King Buddha's fingertip ignited a wisp of pure, flawless flame, seemingly capable of cleansing all defilements in the world—the Lapis Lazuli Pure Flame! This flame not only lacked any sensation of heat but instead emitted a warm and vast purifying intent.

The King Buddha's expression was as stern as iron, as he controlled this wisp of Pure Flame like the most delicate carving knife, carefully probing towards the first dark Dao Mark, emanating a cursed aura, that was entwined on the surface of the Divine Soul.

"Chi..."

When the Pure Flame touched the Dao Mark, it was like hot water on snow; the grotesque cursed patterns immediately twisted and melted, transforming into wisps of turbid black smoke, which were then completely incinerated and purified by the Pure Flame.

Although the entire process seemed slow, it was exceptionally stable.

"It's working!" Hope ignited in the eyes of Queen Mother of the West and Princess Yu Shang, and their palms unconsciously clenched slightly.

His Majesty also held his breath, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Xiao Zhuo stood quietly to the side, his gaze as calm as water, as if observing an exquisite display of Divine Ability, showing no surprise at the Medicine Master King Buddha's demonstration of the highest Buddhist medical techniques.

Time flowed silently.

About half an hour later.

Under the protection of the Twelve Yaksha Generals and the continuous burning and purification of the Lapis Lazuli Pure Flame, one by one, the sinister Dao injuries that had penetrated deep into the Divine Soul were peeled away and annihilated.

The dark patterns on the surface of the Divine Soul became fewer and fewer, and Imperial Son Yu Pan's somewhat ethereal soul body gradually solidified by several points.

The originally overflowing evil and chilling Qi was cleansed by the vast Buddhist light, leaving only a warm and auspicious Buddhist rhyme circulating.

An hour passed, and of the more than ten troublesome Dao injuries that plagued the Divine Soul and were interconnected, Medicine Master King Buddha had successfully purified twelve!

Now, only the last dark Dao Mark, emitting a strong soul-poisoning aura, remained stubbornly entrenched at the glabella of the Imperial Son's Divine Soul, like a maggot in the bone.
