The figure grew taller and taller, allowing Li Xingkong to see more and more. When his field of vision reached a certain height, Li Xingkong was astonished to discover that the entire enormous pagoda was quietly suspended in the palm of a giant's hand.
Looking up, the giant was so tall that even though Li Xingkong was currently at about chest height, the giant's head was still hidden in the clouds above, making it impossible to see anything.
The giant sat cross-legged, his entire body radiating a soft golden light, like a Buddha statue.
Gradually, Li Xingkong could see its appearance, and sure enough, it was exactly as Li Xingkong. It was like a large stone Buddha statue, with a very standard Buddha appearance.
"New friend? I am the abbot of this Dipankara Pavilion. Just call me Dipankara Lamp."
Although it was large, the sound it made was not as loud as Li Xingkong; instead, it was as comfortable as a gentle breeze.
"My name is Li Xingkong, and I pay my respects to Master Dipankara."
Li Xingkong was like an ant in its presence.
" The Primordial Lady Seeking the Dao mentioned to me that when you arrive, he would personally guide you in composing your essay. Now that I see you, you are indeed a man of exceptional talent."
Dipankara Deng stared at Li Xingkong for a few moments, then laughed.
"Well..."
No wonder, if everyone who came to the Dipankara Pavilion had to be greeted by the abbot, that would be terrible.
"Let's put other matters aside for now and have the text engraved for you, shall we?"
With a wave of his hand, a Dipankara of golden light flew out from the pagoda in his hand and landed in front of Li Xingkong.
After a flash of golden light, it transformed into a huge book as tall as Li Xingkong Li Xingkong, which floated in front of him.
"The so-called 'engraving' can be understood as a form of protection provided by the Jade Void Palace for each cultivator."
"Similar to the commonly seen soul lamps and life tablets, once engraved here, this book will continue to be updated as long as you are alive."
"Unlike other methods, if you die elsewhere, this imprinted book will spontaneously operate, recreating your true self and serving as a resurrection point."
Resurrection was not unfamiliar to Li Xingkong. Back in the original world, he had spontaneously created many resurrection methods, and among the opponents he encountered, there were many who possessed numerous resurrection techniques.
But the resurrection within the Jade Void Palace was clearly different from what he had encountered before.
Death in the Primordial World universe is not merely the cessation of bodily functions, but also a conceptual erasure. Under such circumstances, Li Xingkong's method of resurrection is clearly somewhat unacceptable.
Let alone Name-Calling Rebirth, when his own concept is erased, the connection between him and his name will naturally be severed.
But the resurrection within the Dipankara Pavilion is an absolutely unreasonable resurrection; no matter what kind of death one has, one can be reborn here.
Having learned about the function of the engraving, Li Xingkong reached out and touched the huge book in front of him.
This thing is both a means of survival and a form of authentication for members of the Jade Void Palace.
"They really put a lot of effort into it."
Li Xingkong pondered for a few moments, then channeled his magic Magic Power into the book.
A gentle voice came from the book, helping Li Xingkong to confirm the main thread of his past.
The so-called determination of the main timeline means locking onto his past timeline, ensuring that no matter how others change the past or future, his past timeline remains the same and will not change due to anything.
Even if someone travels back to the beginning and kills Li Xingkong when he was a child, as long as the imprinted timeline exists, this kind of time-traveling killing will still have no impact on the current Li Xingkong.
It is a form of protection in the absolute sense.
This is especially true for newly promoted cultivators.
No wonder...
Having imprinted his past into the book, Li Xingkong was filled with emotion.
No wonder Wan Chongshan had no intention of interfering in her past experiences; whether things changed or not, it was all the same to her.
Although Li Xingkong had considered creating a more perfect past for himself before imprinting it, this idea remained just that—an idea.
Firstly, if he doesn't get the seal now, he'll lose a crucial means of survival. Secondly, without the seal, he won't be considered a disciple of the Jade Void Palace, so where will he learn the ability to manipulate timelines?
It's best to just let this kind of thing go and do things step by step.
The engraving process was quick. Once the book received the memories, Magic Power, and other information transmitted by Li Xingkong, it began to turn its pages automatically without any wind. Each page was filled with densely packed, strange characters, recording Li Xingkong's life.
Soon, the golden pages came to an end. Li Xingkong thought for a moment and realized that he really had nothing worth recording. So he withdrew his Magic Power and closed the book.
"The engraving is complete; please place the scriptures in the cabinet."
The sound of Dipankara rang out at the right moment, and then the golden book once again transformed into a stream of light and flew around the pagoda.
The placement of the books was obviously significant, but Li Xingkong clearly didn't understand the logic behind it. He only saw that the golden light transformed from the books circled around several times before moving directly to the upper layers.
"Very good, very good. Now that the inscription is complete, congratulations on officially becoming a member of my Jade Void Sect."
Seeing the books placed in the cabinet, Dipankara smiled even more broadly.
"Did the Primordial Lady Seeking the Dao tell you what to do next?"
" The Yuanjun has instructed me to return to my lodgings and rest for a few days."
"Good."
The giant hand of the Dipankara moved slightly, instantly creating a fierce gust of wind.
A round object, about half the height of a person, flew out of his hand and landed beside Li Xingkong.
"This is a Bodhi seed. Go to the vast world, find a comfortable place, and plant it."
"A seed is a small world. You should first recognize it as your master, and then you can make this small world grow according to your wishes."
"Isn't this... a bit too expensive?"
Looking at the seed before him, Li Xingkong somewhat astonished. An entire small world! Was this too precious for him?
"It's nothing to mention. As members of the Jade Void Sect, wouldn't it be a disgrace to Jade Void if we didn't have such an item?"
The idea behind Dipankara is quite peculiar.
"Take it, but before you plant it, you can go to Laojun Heaven first. As a newly recruited disciple, you can always get some small items by visiting Laojun."
As Mr. Dipankara spoke, he closed his eyes, lowered his gaze, and pointed with his finger. Li Xingkong and the system were then transported to the entrance of the Dipankara Pavilion.
Everything that had just happened seemed like a dream. Li Xingkong looked around, but he could no longer see the tall Mr. Dipankara.
"Truly amazing, System! When will I reach this level?"
