Primordial World, Mount Sumeru in the west.
A trace of crimson transformed into an Eight-Armed Giant Buddha that appeared.
Below, two people with female bodies and male appearances bowed and knelt!
"Jie Yin and Zhun Ti pay respects to High Lord!"
A chillingly bizarre yet dignified voice emerged from the Eight-Armed Giant Buddha's mouth.
"Have the Jiu Jiu Eighty-One Tribulations of Journey to the West all been arranged?"
"Reporting to High Lord, everything has been arranged. The Death Qi has replaced the remaining tribulations."
"Mm, very good!"
The Eight-Armed Giant Buddha raised his head and stared at the starry sky with a sinister laugh.
With a wave of his massive hand, threads of crimson carrying vast insights into Buddhist teachings surged into Jie Yin and Zhun Ti's bodies.
Jie Yin and Zhun Ti were overjoyed and hurriedly bowed in thanks!
"No matter!"
"One thought gives life, one thought brings death; one thought is Buddha, one thought is demon; one thought is eternity, one thought is annihilation."
"All things arise from thought, and thought arises from the heart. I hope you will comprehend this carefully!"
"Yes!"
The Eight-Armed Giant Buddha turned back into crimson mist and dissipated over Mount Sumeru.
Jie Yin and Zhun Ti rose to see him off respectfully!
Just as they were about to leave and contemplate the Buddhist teachings, the void trembled.
Jie Yin and Zhun Ti froze!
Hongjun's phantom descended upon Mount Sumeru!
Hongjun had now reached the Origin Transcendence Realm. His true body could not descend, lest the Primordial World shatter.
He could only send a phantom to investigate.
Earlier, his true body had sensed the dense Death Qi within Mount Sumeru and had intended to deduce its source.
Yet he had been blocked by layers of crimson mist!
"We pay respects to Master!"
"Mm."
