Longevity Mountain's Zhen Yuanzi, the Primordial Violet Qi
After Donghua figured out the solution, he also began to ponder.
The Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is very famous in later generations, and can be said to be a household name. It is both illusory and real.
This supernatural power involves establishing the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss on Mount Sumeru, then constructing numerous caves and smaller worlds in the Western Land, connecting these caves and smaller worlds to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss of Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, with Jieyin and Zhunti.
This creates a closed loop, which can indeed solve the problem of scarce spiritual energy in the Western Region to some extent, and can also rebuild the Earth Vein, but the time and manpower required are absolutely enormous.
After thinking for a moment, Donghua said, "Fellow Daoists, is there no other way?"
Upon hearing this, Jieyin's expression seemed to grow even more somber, and he slowly said, "Fellow Daoists of the Western Region Earth Vein should know that this is beyond human control; we can only proceed gradually and await the opportune moment."
The "waiting for the right time" mentioned by Jieyin does not mean waiting for an opportunity, but rather waiting for the Heavenly Dao to slowly change the Earth Vein in the Western Region.
Since the emergence of the Heavenly Dao, it has been changing the situation in the Western Region, but this is a long process that cannot be completed in an instant.
Donghua originally thought this was a meritorious deed, but now he realizes that if the Earth Vein are repaired in this way, although there will be some merit in the end, it will be negligible, and it would be better not to come at all.
"Repair the Earth Vein, repair the Earth Vein..."
Donghua suddenly thought of someone who might be of great use if he could get his help.
"Fellow Daoists, I have a method, but I wonder if you may explain it?"
Zhunti's eyes flickered. It was already quite an achievement to have managed to persuade Donghua to come, but now it seemed that the other party was not willing to agree so easily.
Although their proposed method could repair the Earth Vein, their primary goal was to help the two of them attain enlightenment. If they could spread the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss throughout the Western Region, their path to enlightenment would be complete.
Zhunti: "Please speak frankly, fellow Daoist!"
Donghua thought for a moment and said, "Brother Zhen Yuanzi has a treasure called the Earth Book, which is a treasure formed from the Earth Fetal Membrane. It contains the power of the earth's rules. Moreover, Zhen Yuanzi cultivates the earth's way and the Great Dao of Earth, so he can definitely offer some advice on repairing the Earth Vein."
Jieyin and Zhunti a glance, Zhunti exclaimed in amazement, "Such a treasure exists in the world! We have truly been too shallow. If we could really have the help of Fellow Zhen Yuanzi, there would indeed be hope for repairing the Earth Vein."
Zhunti stood up and said again, "Fellow Daoist, Senior Brother, you discuss this, and I will go to visit Zhen Yuanzi and will definitely invite him here."
Donghua chuckled softly, "Fellow Daoist, please don't be in such a hurry. Besides Zhen Yuanzi, we need someone else's help to repair the Earth Vein. If we can get her assistance, our chances might be much better."
Before Donghua could even speak, Jieyin suddenly asked, "Could it be the Ancestor Witch Houtu?"
Donghua was surprised that Jieyin reacted so quickly, thinking of the Ancestor Witch Houtu in such a short time. No wonder she was the one who could create the Great Dream of Three Thousand.
Zhunti's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"
"It seems I'll have to trouble you to go to Longevity Mountain this time, Mount Buzhou Brother. I apologize for any inconvenience this junior brother may cause."
Upon hearing Zhunti's words, Jieyin's already long face seemed to grow even longer.
Donghua glanced at it, somewhat puzzled. It was just a trip to Longevity Mountain, wasn't it?
Compared to the troublesome Witch Clan, Zhen Yuanzi's side should be the easiest to invite, so why Jieyin like this?
As if sensing Donghua's confusion, Zhunti added, "My senior brother isn't good at dealing with people."
"Uh-huh?"
Donghua's eyes widened as he looked Jieyin again, and he finally understood how this guy had created the "Dream of Enlightenment" and the Great Dream of Three Thousand ".
"So it Jieyin is a Primordial Wilderness version of someone with social anxiety disorder. Isn't this exactly what social anxiety is like?"
Donghua wanted to laugh but couldn't. It was truly unbelievable that the future Lord of Ten Thousand Buddhas, the Primordial Wilderness Saint, was actually socially awkward.
Jieyin sensed Donghua's scrutiny. His usually expressionless face remained calm, but Donghua could still see the unease in his heart.
"In that case, Longevity Mountain will allow me to go there. I can visit Brother Zhen Yuanzi and Fellow Daoist Jieyin to stay at Mount Sumeru and prepare the necessary materials for setting up the formation for us."
As soon as Donghua spoke, Jieyin immediately replied, "Okay!"
Donghua: "..."
Longevity Mountain is located near the Western Region border, yet it remains completely unaffected by the Western Continent.
The mountains are towering and majestic, their peaks reaching for the heavens. Their roots are connected to the Kunlun Mountains, and their summits touch the sky.
Sunlight shines through the clear forest, where thousands of Red Mist swirl; wind stirs in the shady ravines, and countless Caiyun drift by. Birds chirp wildly in the bamboo grove, while pheasants fight amongst the wildflowers.
The pine-covered slope is serene, the bamboo path is tranquil, and white cranes come and go, carrying away the floating clouds.
Upon seeing the Wuzhuang Temple, Donghua exclaimed, "Zhen Yuanzi, this humble Daoist has come to visit! Quickly come out to greet me!"
Before long, hundreds of disciples from Wuzhuang Temple rushed out and surrounded Donghua.
Zhen Yuanzi wore a red and orange Daoist robe, held a whisk, walked with square steps, wore a purple and gold crown, and wore shoes. A ribbon was tied around his waist, and his long beard fluttered.
Zhen Yuanzi scoffed, "Why haven't you captured the thieves who have invaded my Wuzhuang Temple yet!"
The disciples didn't recognize Donghua, and when Zhen Yuanzi spoke, they swarmed forward.
This put Donghua in a difficult position. It wouldn't be good to make a move, but it wouldn't be good not to either. He was in a dilemma.
If I were to hit a junior, what face would I have left? But if I didn't intervene and let a junior hit me, I wouldn't have any face either. So I hurriedly said:
"Brother Zhen Yuanzi, this is how you welcome my East King Gong?"
Donghua quickly revealed his name, which made the younger generation back down.
As expected, upon hearing the name Donghua, he paused and looked towards his ancestor.
Zhen Yuanzi waved his hand. "You all, step back!"
After everyone had left, Zhen Yuanzi laughed heartily and said jokingly, "Tai Wei, you dared to be so arrogant outside my mountain gate! Now you'll regret it!"
Donghua pointed at Zhen Yuanzi: "Alas, the honest and kind-hearted Daoist Zhen Yuanzi of the past is gone forever. You've been corrupted by Fellow Daoist Hongyun."
"Hey, stop, stop! I won't take that name for myself. This is Zhen Yuanzi's true nature. His outward appearance is all an act; his heart is black."
Hong Yun, dressed in a red Daoist robe, walked out with a kind face and a smile.
Donghua was a little embarrassed. He had been talking badly about someone behind their back, but the person was right in front of him. He then burst into laughter.
The three entered the hall and took their seats. Then, a servant boy served them Ginseng Fruit, Fire Jujube, and other Spirit Fruit, as well as some spiritual wine.
The three of them started drinking!
Donghua sighed, "This is the life that our immortals should have. What kind of life do fellow Daoists Jieyin and Zhunti live?"
Zhen Yuanzi asked in confusion, "Fellow Daoist, have you gone to the Western Region?"
Donghua nodded and said, "A few days ago, Zhunti Daojun from the Western Region visited the Purple Mansion and asked me to come up with a matter concerning the Western Region Earth Vein."
Donghua slowly revealed the purpose of his trip. Zhen Yuanzi listened and pondered for a while before saying, "Brother Zhen Yuanzi, it is my duty to continue the work of connecting the Western Region Earth Vein. However, this is not an easy task. Even with the Earth Book in hand, it will be a time-consuming process."
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry about this. It's impossible to repair the Western Region Earth Vein all at once. Our main task this time is to clear away the Sha Qi in the Western Region and reconnect some of the main Earth Vein. The rest will be left to those two fellow Daoists in the Western Region, and to the gradual evolution of heaven and earth."
"This time, with the help of the Ancestral Witch Houtu, plus those two Western Region Lords recognized by the Heavenly Dao, it shouldn't take long."
Zhen Yuanzi thought to himself, this is a good thing to do. It is not only a good thing that benefits heaven and earth, but it will also make those two in the Western Region owe a debt of karma. It is really good.
"I have agreed to this. If Heaven offers this opportunity and I do not take it, I will suffer the consequences. If I do not earn this merit, I will regret it to death!"
Donghua and the others burst into laughter. Zhen Yuanzi is still so honest!
Hong Yun, who was standing to the side, suddenly said, "Tai Wei Daoist Taiwei, after hearing what you just said, I believe I can also be of some help in this matter."
"Those earthly evil energies can be collected using my Nine-Nine Soul Scattering Gourd. Firstly, it can enhance the power of the spiritual treasure. Secondly, I am of the Innate Fire Virtue, formed from innate cloud energy, and have sufficient influence over the Western Region weather. Would you be willing to take me with you?"
Donghua hesitated for a moment. Hong Yun's addition could indeed speed things up, but it would also mean one more person to share the merit. However, thinking of Zhen Yuanzi, the main force this time, he still spoke up:
"If fellow Daoists could join us, we would surely be able to complete this much faster. It would be an honor."
Upon hearing Donghua's reply, Zhen Yuanzi gave him a grateful look. His friend was good in every way, with a good personality, but he was a little clueless about himself, always doing as he pleased and often not caring about other people's feelings.
The three of them stopped talking about the Western Region. Donghua took out some Purple Mansion Spirit Fruit and began to chat. Suddenly, they heard Hong Yun say, "This Primordial Violet Qi is truly difficult to comprehend!"
Upon hearing this, Donghua glared angrily at Hong Yun and said with displeasure, "Fellow Daoist, the Primordial Violet Qi is a supreme treasure of the Heavenly Dao, containing the Heavenly Dao Power and capable of achieving the status of Saint. You'd better not say such things again, or you'll easily get beaten up."
Zhen Yuanzi laughed heartily, pointed at Hong Yun and said, "Look at you, you always say the same thing to me, and today you've finally gotten your comeuppance."
Hong Yun sighed and said helplessly, "It's not that I'm showing off, but it's truly difficult to comprehend. I don't know how the others have progressed, but since obtaining the Primordial Violet Qi, I've only managed to grasp a little bit of the application of the Heavenly Dao Power. I haven't grasped anything else at all. Alas!"
"Since Fellow Daoist Hongyun puts it that way, why not release the Primordial Violet Qi so that we may also have a look at this supreme treasure of the Heavenly Dao?"
This was Donghua's jest, originally just meant to tease Hong Yun. After all, the Primordial Violet Qi was no ordinary spiritual treasure; it concerned the Heavenly Dao Power and the status of Saint.
Unexpectedly, Hong Yun actually manifested the Primordial Violet Qi from his primordial spirit and said, "Fellow Daoists, the Primordial Violet Qi has already merged into my primordial spirit and cannot be extracted. How about we observe and comprehend it together?"
Donghua was somewhat shocked by Hong Yun's actions, but Zhen Yuanzi, standing to the side, seemed completely unfazed, with an expression that suggested he was used to it.
"Brother Tai Wei, please don't overthink it. In fact, Hong Yun doesn't take the Primordial Violet Qi too seriously, and he often shows it to me so that I can understand a bit about it."
