Primordial World: Letting You Sell Goods, You Became the Supreme of All Heavens

It was filled with explanations of the Dao.

This was different from the Journey to the West World, elaborating on the Dao from another perspective.

"Buzz..."

Brilliant golden light emanated from Diting, and Diting could feel his physical body undergoing a unique transformation.

As a demonic beast, Diting's physical body was already incredibly powerful. As Ksitigarbha's spirit beast, his bloodline was far beyond that of ordinary demonic beasts.

Now, his already formidable physique was changing in a new way, allowing him to feel the power of the world more clearly.

Coupled with the various phenomena appearing in the air, Diting thought of a specific physique.

The Primordial Desolate Sacred Body.

That was the physique of the protagonist in the Covering the Sky world.

The protagonist with that physique had ultimately reached the end, becoming one of the supreme powerhouses.

It could be said that the items obtained from the miscellaneous shop, even if inferior to those in the Journey to the West World in some aspects, would perfectly integrate with one's original self in other ways.

This way, the powers of the Journey to the West World and other worlds would not develop any rejection.

The Primordial Desolate Sacred Body was no different.

Inheriting the Primordial Desolate Sacred Body, Diting's physique did not transform into the Primordial Desolate Sacred Body itself, but rather, its original constitution was augmented with the might of the Primordial Desolate Sacred Body.

This was not a simple inheritance of a cultivation method.

"The Primordial Desolate Sacred Body and the Dao Scripture, things from the Covering the Sky world have actually become real," Diting said, disbelief etched on his face.

"Diting, do you understand now?" Ksitigarbha's voice emerged softly from beside him.

"Master, I understand..." Diting's voice faltered as he looked at Ksitigarbha at that moment.

Looking at his master at this moment, Diting felt as if he were gazing upon a colossal life form that blotted out the sky, or as if he were trapped in Hell, with piercing sounds echoing in his ears.

Divine Elephant Suppression Prison Strength.

This was the powerful cultivation method Ksitigarbha had obtained from the story of the Saint King.

And it was a cultivation method that could perfectly integrate with the Journey to the West World.

It could be said that the current Divine Elephant Suppression Prison Strength was different from the Divine Elephant Suppression Prison Strength in the Saint King world, but in some ways, it was also similar.

After all, it had been reborn from the Saint King's world.

This cultivation method was one of the primary cultivation methods of the Saint King's protagonist.

The human body was composed of 840 million particles. The initial stage of cultivation involved opening up these particles. As one cultivated deeper, there was no specific number.

One only needed to open up countless sand-like Hells within the human particles, allowing the divine embryo to reside in those Hells and absorb their power.

It could even achieve the feat of eternally suppressing Hell.

Thinking about it this way, it was incredibly fitting for Ksitigarbha.

It was a cultivation method that leaned towards the Demonic Path, but unlike the Demonic Path, when cultivated to its extreme, it also carried the power of Hell.

This was practically a divine technique bestowed upon him by the heavens.

The terrifying feeling Diting had earlier was because Ksitigarbha had not fully contained the power of the Divine Elephant Suppression Prison Strength for a moment.

The Divine Elephant Suppression Prison Strength inherited from the Saint King had already granted Ksitigarbha the power of the Divine Elephant Suppression Prison Strength.

This was what the miscellaneous shop had brought them.

"Diting, what did you obtain?" Ksitigarbha took a deep breath, the terrifying aura of Hell on his body slowly receding.

"Master, from the books, I seem to have acquired a physique called the Primordial Desolate Sacred Body, which has brought about unique changes to my physical body. I also gained a cultivation method, the Dao Scripture, which I feel will help loosen my current realm a bit," Diting replied.

As Ksitigarbha's spirit beast, Diting possessed the power of a peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Historically, Diting's strength surpassed that of Sun Wukong.

"Oh, that's quite good," Ksitigarbha nodded. "Diting, then you should properly comprehend your cultivation method."

"Master, I'll recite the Dao Scripture to you later," Diting said quickly.

"Haha, no rush," Ksitigarbha chuckled.

His spirit beast was truly considerate of him.

However, as a Quasi-Saint powerhouse, the Dao Scripture might be useful to him, but its effect wouldn't be significant. Ksitigarbha understood that most of the items obtained from the miscellaneous shop were suited to one's current strength and realm.

It wasn't as if you had the power of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal and obtained something that required Quasi-Saint cultivation to use.

Otherwise, even if it were a good item, what use would it be if you couldn't use it?

"Sun Wukong, what did you obtain?" Ksitigarbha turned to look at Sun Wukong.

Ksitigarbha was also very curious about Sun Wukong's gains.

After all, Ksitigarbha had seen Sun Wukong reading the book titled Journey to the West earlier.

Journey to the West, the future Calamity of Buddhism, might be related to this.

"I obtained this," Sun Wukong hesitated slightly before extending his palm. A wisp of golden light rippled out, containing some astonishing energy.

"This is the Power of Merit," Ksitigarbha said slowly, his gaze focused.

As the Ksitigarbha who suppresses Hell, he naturally understood the Power of Merit.

It was something most beings in the Journey to the West World sought after, even legendary Saints.

Otherwise, why would the Two Sages of the West promote Buddhism?

They had even schemed for a long time during the Battle of the Gods.

If not for that, Daoist Duobao wouldn't have become the current Buddha Tathagata, and Cihang Daoist, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and the other Twelve Golden Immortals from the Heavenly Origin Sect wouldn't have become the current Bodhisattvas of Buddhism.

Even the Deputy Sect Master of the Heavenly Origin Sect, Daoist Randeng, eventually became a Buddha.

Yuanshi Tianzun didn't have much of a reaction to Randeng's betrayal, but he was enraged by his disciples like Cihang.

This demonstrated the importance of merit.

Establishing Buddhism was also for merit and destiny.

Chapter Thirty-Three: Breaking Through to Grand Unity! Sun Wukong's Resolve!

What was the use of merit and destiny?

One could see it by looking at the current Saints.

Whether it was the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, or the Two Sages of the West.

They all attained sainthood in the Primordial World by relying on merit and destiny.

The Two Sages of the West, in particular, made grand vows and borrowed merit and destiny from the Heavenly Dao to become Saints.

The establishment of Buddhism was also partly to fulfill those past grand vows.

If, at this time, a powerful individual possessed enough merit and destiny, they might have a chance to attain sainthood and become a legendary Saint.

However, in this current world, obtaining such a vast amount of merit and destiny had become almost impossible.

Sun Wukong only held a wisp of merit and destiny in his hand.

It was of great use to Sun Wukong, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, but of little use to Ksitigarbha, a Quasi-Saint.

"Sun Wukong, this is the Power of Merit and Destiny," Ksitigarbha said slowly. "Perhaps you can use this power to break through your current realm."

"The Power of Merit and Destiny." Sun Wukong's consciousness merged with this power.

What this power was also surfaced in his mind.

Just as Ksitigarbha said, it was the Power of Merit.

With enough Power of Merit, one could completely break through without any side effects.

It was truly a miraculous treasure, like a panacea.

It was even more useful than rare heavenly treasures.

However, obtaining the Power of Merit and Destiny was truly too difficult, too difficult.

Especially in this current Journey to the West era.

"It really is," Sun Wukong nodded.

"Sun Wukong, we shall take our leave then. See you again if there's a chance," Ksitigarbha said to Sun Wukong. Then, his gaze shifted towards Bixiao's location with a smile. Ksitigarbha and Diting turned and departed.

"Senior, please visit Flower-Fruit Mountain if you have the chance!" Sun Wukong shouted at Ksitigarbha as he left.

Sun Wukong truly admired Ksitigarbha for daring to attack Spirit Mountain.

Perhaps he could do the same someday.

After reading Journey to the West, this thought in Sun Wukong's heart became even more real.

"It seems I also need to prepare to break through my current realm." Sun Wukong's eyes shone with light.

With the Chaos Demon Ape Bloodline, the pills obtained from the miscellaneous shop, and now this wisp of merit and destiny he had acquired.

This made Sun Wukong very confident about breaking through from Grand Unity Golden Immortal to Grand Unity.
