"It is time to set the Journey to the West in motion..."
Hongjun spoke mildly, his expression as still as an ancient well.
But at those words, Zhunti froze briefly.
Then a feverish light flashed in his eyes.
The Journey to the West... was finally about to begin?!
Without a doubt, the Journey to the West had long since ceased to be a secret to Zhunti or any of the Sages.
More importantly, it was already ordained by the Heavenly Mandate.
It was another Measureless Calamity of Heaven and Earth, following the Investiture of the Gods.
And it was... the perfect opportunity for the Buddhist School to soar into the heavens and see its fortune surge.
So long as the Journey to the West succeeded.
When that time came, the Buddhist School's fortune would no longer be confined to millions or tens of millions of living beings.
It would encompass... hundreds of quadrillions!
One could even say it would encompass every living being between Heaven and Earth.
Then the vastness of the Buddhist School's fortune and the heights of its prestige would be utterly unimaginable.
Even reshaping the Heavenly Dao's great momentum through it would not be impossible.
For a moment, Zhunti thought of the Interception Sect again.
Once the Journey to the West succeeded, what could the Interception Sect do, even with Gu Changsheng presiding over it and Sages such as Tongtian, Hong Yun, and Ji Ren among its ranks?
Every Measureless Calamity, after all, was the true Heavenly Mandate sweeping forth in an unstoppable torrent, following the greater momentum.
It was not something one person's strength could reverse.
During the several previous Measureless Calamities, hadn't Gu Changqing also laid his plans in secret, prying at the Heavenly Mandate little by little?
He had not forcibly reversed the course
