The Heavenly Dao Merit Arrived, and the World-Honored One Raged: Build a New Spirit Mountain and I'll Strike!
Rumble!
Across the skies of the Western Lands, golden Auspicious Clouds suddenly rolled in.
The boundless golden clouds brimmed with Heavenly Dao Merit. Acre upon acre spread across the sky, and that limitless Merit shook countless mighty beings throughout the Primordial Wilderness.
Especially the countless gods and Buddhas who stood upon the Western Land.
They were utterly dumbfounded. None of them knew what had happened!
How strange...
How odd...
Why would so much Heavenly Dao Merit drift over the Western Land out of nowhere?
The order of the Primordial Wilderness had long been settled. Everything meant to appear had already appeared, and what was not meant to appear never would. As for Heavenly Dao Merit... that was precious beyond measure!
Even those so-called Hunyuan Saints
had scarcely received any Heavenly Dao Merit!
That alone showed just how rare Heavenly Dao Merit was!
Yet, against all expectations, someone had obtained Heavenly Dao Merit in this day and age—and that someone was in the territory of the Western Teachings.
How could anyone not be shaken?
"Amitabha, when I become the Buddha Patriarch of the Buddhist Sect..."
"Amitabha, from this day forth, I am the Buddhist Sect's Universal Manifestation Tathagata, the Present-Moment Enlightened Buddha. I shall manifest in every realm, each made whole in an instant. My Buddha-body shall pervade all places and all times, appearing in every present moment..."
"I shall establish the Present-Moment Pure Land. It is no distant world, but the 'Manifest Pure Land' that appears the moment a living being's mind becomes pure. As the saying goes, 'When the mind is pure, the land is pure; when thought awakens, the Buddhist Kingdom is here.' In this land, there is no past or future, only the eternal present moment. All things..."
His solemn, compassionate voice echoed throughout the Primordial Wilderness.
