"Evil corpse, emerge!
Good corpse, appear!"
Streams of light entered Wu Tian's body, and Wu Tian calmed down. Before long, two thunderous shouts shook the heavens and Jiuyou.
Black-robed Wu Tian and white-robed Wu Tian appeared. A Buddha manifested where they had stood, pressing his palms together as he guided the power of Sun Wukong and the sixteen relics into Qiao Ling'er's body.
This sudden turn of events shocked the gods and Buddhas. They looked toward Shi Yongheng, yet Shi Yongheng seemed utterly unaware.
Kinnara looked at Shi Yongheng and bowed. "Thank you. Otherwise, who knew how many more years I would have remained lost."
Shi Yongheng smiled. "Welcome back, Great Monk, now that you have awakened to your true self completely.
This was also a method I obtained by chance. I had not cultivated it myself, but seeing the Great Monk's condition, I decided to test it. I did not expect it to work!"
Kinnara had now completely transcended the Da Luo level. If he had to be described, he could be called a quasi-saint.
His strength had surged dramatically. In the present Three Realms, he was unquestionably the number one figure.
The black- and white-robed Wu Tians then vanished as he drew them back into his body. Kinnara appeared utterly plain and unadorned as he quietly watched Qiao Ling'er, Tathagata's reincarnation.
"Buddha!"
Before long, Tathagata returned. He glanced at Kinnara in the void and nodded. Though he was dissatisfied with what Shi Yongheng had done, he could not lose his composure and show it at such a time.
"Welcome back, Great Monk!"
Kinnara performed a Buddhist salute. "Amitabha Buddha. The seas had turned to fields and fields to seas; I sank for endless ages. Shameful."
"The tribulation has ended, and Buddha and immortal have returned to the Dao.
