The Heavenly Dao was heartless, but the Dao Ancestor had a heart
"Get out of here! Get out of here now!"
As the thousands of wooden dragons came to life, the area around the Wondrous Tree of Seven Treasures became a completely dangerous forbidden zone.
Realizing the danger first, Fu Kui acted decisively, forcefully using the power of the World-Destroying Black Lotus to create a black curtain that covered most of the sky. Under this black curtain, the already turbulent spacetime became even more chaotic.
Yet, amidst this chaos, the thousands of wooden dragons lost their clear objective, wandering aimlessly like headless flies. In an instant, countless wooden dragons became entangled and intertwined.
Under these circumstances, all parties wisely withdrew from the battlefield.
Even Wu Luo, the most warlike of the Ten Witches of Spirit Mountain, immediately withdrew his [Mind-Aspect Barrier] to cover the retreat of his warriors.
Although not in the way Li Xi had imagined, this war, which affected the Three Realms, was indeed mysteriously put on hold.
But what kind of storm is brewing beneath this calm surface? Only time will tell.
"I knew things wouldn't be that simple!"
Minghe also stopped fighting Śakra and did not linger for long.
With a single wave of his hand, the towering Vajra of the Six Heavens Vajra swept away countless Asura and Yakshas back into the Netherworld. Only Chi himself stood proudly between heaven and earth, forcefully repelling every wooden dragon that tried to rush towards him.
Although he had already obtained a Red Lotus of Karmic Fire, Minghe's goal was never just a single Seven Treasures Fruit.
"The Sea of Alaya Consciousness... is vibrating."
Śakra had maintained a high level of vigilance from the very beginning and had been hovering on the edge of the battlefield, finally spoke.
Behind Śakra, the Bodhisattva from Yama Heaven, unusually united, stared intently at the unusual movement of the Wondrous Tree of Seven Treasures with furrowed brows.
"It is Amala Consciousness!"
Just then, Subhūti had appeared at the edge of the battlefield at some unknown time, spoke.
He stared solemnly at the Wondrous Tree of Seven Treasures, his expression more serious than anyone else present.
Because from the Manas Consciousness to the Alaya Consciousness, and then to the Amala Consciousness...
This series of practices originated from Buddhism during its future golden age.
Even those Dao Proving One and can traverse the Long River of Time may not be able to see such a distant future.
Not to mention, the future, with the present as a starting point, holds infinite possibilities, and the possibilities only increase as we move further into the future.
Even the Dao Ancestor wouldn't dare claim to be "omniscient and omnipotent," let alone Indra, who is merely Śakra of Zhuang Zhou.
On the contrary, the Buddhas and Bodhisattva present seemed to have vaguely sensed something, but they mostly wore expressions of disbelief.
"I've heard of Alaya Consciousness, but what is Amala Consciousness?"
Anyone who has heard the Dao Proving One at the Purple Firmament Palace and attained enlightenment will be familiar with the concept of "Alaya Consciousness".
Especially the Primordial Beginning Heavenly Demon, which hides within and symbolizes the desires of all living beings.
Everyone speculated that even if Chi was not an incarnation of the Dao Ancestor, he must have an inextricable connection with Dao Ancestor.
As for being the original creator of the Six Desire Heavens?
Although Zhuang Zhou ultimately renounced the Six Desire Heavens, he never abandoned the [Dao of Great Freedom].
Thanks to this, although Śakra was unaware of what was happening in his Sea of Alaya Consciousness, he instinctively realized it was a major crisis. To put it simply, if we consider the Alaya Consciousness, which gathers the desires of all beings, as "defilement"...
"Then the ' Amala Consciousness ' is the subconscious that unifies all sentient beings, unites the desires of people's hearts, and transforms those complex and diverse desires of sentient beings into pure 'purity'."
"One thought arises, ten thousand thoughts cease; from this day forward, all sentient beings are Buddhas, and all phenomena are Buddhas."
When Subhūti uttered these words, everyone present was astonished.
Even the sky screen, which was originally broadcasting live about the Wondrous Tree of Seven Treasures and those wooden dragons, quietly switched its view to Subhūti.
"If I understand correctly, it means infecting all living beings with one's own desires?"
After a brief silence, Śakra felt that his worldview had been completely shattered.
What kind of abstract, delusional person could come up with such a method of spiritual practice?
"You know, even the Primordial Beginning Heavenly Demon wouldn't dare to use his own desires to corrupt living beings, as that would only cause Chi to completely lose his humanity." "Well, you could say that."
The volume dropped two decibels instantly, Subhūti gave a slightly embarrassed smile.
"You're all lunatics! You're all a bunch of lunatics!"
Gritting his teeth and cursing under his breath, Śakra now understood what that great crisis was.
Whether or not Amala Consciousness can be born is another matter, but the consequences of doing so would certainly be severe.
If one is not careful, all living beings will lose their original consciousness, causing the entire era to regress to the primitive biological stage at the beginning of Opening Heaven and Earth. Although they are also Dao Proving One have descended from the future, Śakra still feels that these Dao Proving One are simply too unruly.
"Does Chi want to become Great Luo Golden Immortal?"
"How did Chi do that? What are his plans for the future?"
Without continuing with any more riddles, Śakra glared fiercely at Subhūti.
By this point, Śakra had guessed that all of this was related to Mahākāśyapa, while several Supreme One, including the Dao Ancestor, seemed to have chosen to stand by and watch?
Or do they believe that Mahākāśyapa can't cause any trouble at all?
The Dao Ancestor initially allowed himself to attain the [Dao of Great Freedom], and afterwards, without holding grudges, allowed himself to remain in this era.
Śakra believed that it was a form of compassion.
But when the same thing happened to Mahākāśyapa...
Śakra's feelings were completely different, even giving him the thought that "Heaven and Earth are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs." His strength, cultivation, and vision had reached the level of the Dao Ancestor.
There are many things that are simply beyond the comprehension of ordinary people; even Śakra is unsure whether the Dao Ancestor was behind it all. Mahākāśyapa was the first practitioner to complete the "Theory of Nine Consciousnesses."
"I originally thought he intended to forcibly unify the subconscious of all beings, using his own Manas Consciousness to influence the Sea of Alaya Consciousness, thereby achieving Amala Consciousness." "But now it seems he used a more sophisticated method than I imagined."
At this point, Subhūti paused for a moment before reorganizing his words to explain.
"It's not about forcibly unifying, but rather about deeply analyzing the Manas Consciousness and exploring the difference between the self and the other..."
"Then, starting with commonalities, one can naturally integrate one's own will into all living beings."
"This process is like an apple falling to the ground or a river flowing into the sea; it's a natural process."
But after saying this, Subhūti's face showed deep confusion.
"The only thing I don't quite understand is why Chi left this Wondrous Tree of Seven Treasures behind?"
"If this theory were followed, although Mahākāśyapa is dead, the will of the tree would live on forever in the consciousness of all beings." "No matter how you look at it, the existence of this Wondrous Tree of Seven Treasures seems very abrupt, as if it deliberately created a 'weakness' for itself?" "Especially those seven fruits, symbolizing 'the desires of all beings,' are practically dividing its own power and Dao Path."
"Is it because the desires of all living beings far exceeded Chi's expectations? Is it therefore necessary to divide them?"
After listening to Subhūti's analysis, everyone pondered Mahākāśyapa's intentions.
Only Śakra's eyes flashed a hint of realization, his heart immediately calming down. Then, with a strange expression, he looked up at the great sun in the sky. [A deliberately created "weakness"?]
[It seems to be Dao Transformation paths and forces? I see!]
Was it Great Unity it? Or Dao Ancestor and Yin Son of Heaven also involved?
Didn't Mahākāśyapa consider that his actions were tantamount to overturning the table?
[Where did Mahākāśyapa get the confidence to succeed on a path to Dao Proving that comes at the cost of "destroying all living beings"?][The Heavenly Dao may be ruthless, but the Dao Ancestor is compassionate!]
