What? Y-You want to see my Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, the magic treasure I used to prove my Dao?!
At this utterly outrageous request, Daoist Zhunti—who had never interacted with or learned much about the little girl, the alien demon, or the Flame Immortal—couldn't help but freeze in surprise.
"Wonderful, wonderful..."
"If you, young friend, are willing to put aside the demonic thoughts in your heart and surrender, then you will be a guest with a destined connection to the West. You may enter my Western Teachings and share in the delights of the Western Paradise... By then, let alone allowing you to look at it, even if I were to give you this wondrous Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree in my hand for free, what would be wrong with that?!"
"Listen well, young friend. The wonders of the Western Paradise are beyond the grasp of ordinary people..."
"Have you not heard..."
"The Twelve-Grade Lotus Platform reveals the treasures of the Dharma; beside the Eight Virtues Pond, white light appears. A lifespan equal to Heaven and Earth is no falsehood; blessings surpassing a mighty flood are no exaggeration. When one cultivates the relic, it is called fetal breathing; the carefree bliss of the West is paradise..."
"If you are willing, young friend, you can enter the Western Teachings and avoid this calamity..."
Daoist Zhunti paid no heed to Yuanshi Tianzun's increasingly ugly expression beside him. Right to his face, he began to preach, earnestly introducing the Western Teachings that he and his senior brother had founded together.
He didn't actually want things to come to this. It was just that the Investiture of the Gods calamity had changed. Because the Flame Immortal from Cloud Peak on Cuiping Mountain had meddled recklessly, the great calamity of Heaven and Earth had quietly dissipated.
