Even the foundation of the Western Religion, Immeasurable Mount Sumeru, had been utterly obliterated by those three tolls of the Chaos Bell.
This had caused the fortune of both him and Zhunti to plummet.
Had they not spent these tens of thousands of years converting many demons in the Demon Celestial Court who shared a destined affinity with the Western Religion, stabilizing their respective sage fruit positions in the process...

The power of merit could actually be used like that.
