Lin Tian had also said this: even if you, Randeng, watched the Three Great Bodhisattvas die, you would never bring out the Sea-Calming Divine Pearls.
Yes, even she herself would never bring them out.
Everyone in Buddhism had begun putting their own interests first, and she was no exception.
Moreover, Lin Tian had risen and soared all along the way. She could not see through him at all; she saw only layer upon layer of mist shrouding him.
It seemed that all the Three Realms lay within his schemes.
The Heavenly Dao's Great Trend had been reversed, just like that. The Heavenly Dao's Great Trend of spiritual energy decline had become one of spiritual energy resurgence.
The Three Realms would enter a glorious age. Buddhism's original advantage had been using faith to replace spiritual energy, and that was why she had willingly followed Tathagata.
But now, Tathagata had lost that advantage, and unease had begun spreading throughout Buddhism.
What Buddhism needed now was, first, financial stability, and then a stable future. Tathagata could no longer provide either.
Although Tathagata was now working hard to use his talent for formations to develop a method of converting Spirit Stones outside Chaos, it was too slow.
The main reason was that refining Star Banners and sending Great Encompassing Golden Immortals out to gather resources both required investment. Maintaining even one conversion grand formation was a struggle; maintaining several was far from easy.
Lin Tian was different. A glorious future awaited him. He had always opposed the Buddhist Sect, yet the Buddhist Sect had consistently fallen behind. Now, he had become the one who controlled the Heavenly Dao's Great Trend as a whole.
Submitting to Lin Tian would be better than sinking with Buddhism's leaking ship.
Lin Tian said nothing and did not hurry
