Ming Xin continued, "My two masters may establish a sect and become saints, enlighten all living beings, guide all races toward goodness, transform Heaven and Earth, and bring blessings to all things."
Ming Xin then passed on to Jieyin and Zhunti the scriptures and classics of the mature Buddhism from his past life.
Ming Xin's words were like a clear, steady Heaven-Connecting Great Dao laid out before Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti.
They instantly cast off their worries that they might be rejected while attaining the Primordial Grand Unity, their goal becoming clear and their Dao hearts growing even firmer.
Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged a glance. No words were needed; their tacit understanding, forged over ten thousand years, had already made their intentions clear—this was the path!
The fire of wisdom burned in Daoist Zhunti's eyes. Combining Ming Xin's words with his own insights, he swiftly refined the plan and declared, "Senior Brother, we shall follow our disciple's plan!
"First, we shall establish a great sect, enlighten all living beings, accumulate boundless merit, use it as our foundation, draw forth the Primordial Violet Qi, and attain the Heavenly Dao Saint Position!"
Daoist Jieyin nodded heavily, his expression solemn. "That is exactly right. Establishing a sect gathers Fortune, clarifies the Great Dao, and carries out enlightenment. It accords with the Heavenly Dao and is also the direction of our great vow."
The two no longer hesitated. They adjusted their states and deeply connected their auras with the unseen Heavenly Dao and the Primordial Violet Qi fused with their primordial spirits.
A vast, compassionate Dao rhythm, carrying a certain sense of contract, began to emanate from their bodies.
Ming Xin retreated to one side and held his breath, knowing that the most critical moment was about to arrive.
He could sense the system recording and analyzing every detail of this act of establishing a sect to become a saint at full capacity. It would hold immeasurable reference value for his future attainment of the Dao.
The time had come!
Jieyin and Zhunti stepped forward at the same time, their forms seeming to merge with the entire Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.
Facing the Heaven and Earth of the Primordial World, their grand Dao Sounds thundered through the clouds and spread to every corner of the Primordial World, filled with supreme determination and vow power:
"Heavenly Dao above, today, Jieyin (Zhunti), having witnessed the suffering of all beings, the sinking of the Mortal World, the barrenness of The West, and the obscurity of the Great Dao, is willing to establish a sect, named—Buddha!"
The moment the word "Buddha" left their lips, Heaven and Earth shook! That single word seemed to contain endless wisdom, enlightenment, and Transcendence. It was the condensed essence of Jieyin and Zhunti's Great Dao principles!
"My Buddhist Sect shall enlighten all living beings, Guide People to Goodness, illuminate the mind and see one's nature, and save all beings!
"Any who possess a heart toward the Dao, regardless of roots or origin, may enter my sect, cultivate wondrous methods, and attain great freedom!"
"My Buddhist Sect's disciples shall diligently do good, comprehend Heaven and Earth, cherish compassion, and revere Cause and Effect!
"Above, they shall embody Heaven's heart; below, they shall show mercy to all things. They shall cultivate in the Mortal World and awaken amid suffering!"
"I, Jieyin (Zhunti), am willing to make a Great Vow: to establish the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, a Pure Land of liberation for all beings. Until all beings are saved, I swear I shall not become Buddha!"
As the great vows were uttered, enormous pillars of golden vow power shot from Jieyin and Zhunti's bodies into the sky, piercing the Ninth Heaven!
These great vows were not empty words. With their perfected Primordial Golden Immortal cultivation and the Primordial Violet Qi as the medium, they formed solemn contracts with the Heavenly Dao!
In an instant, the Heavenly Dao responded!
Above the Ninth Heaven, the winds and clouds changed color. Boundless Mysterious Yellow Merit Qi, no less magnificent than when Nuwa Becomes a Saint, descended with a thunderous roar like an overturned heavenly river!
Part of this merit rewarded them for establishing their sect, while the greater part was an "advance payment" from the Heavenly Dao for the great vows they had made!
The vast merit was like a golden ocean, completely submerging Jieyin and Zhunti.
At the same time, Daoist Jieyin brought forth the Western Supreme Treasure—the Twelve-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit!
The golden lotus bloomed with a radiance stretching ten thousand zhang. It spun rapidly above their heads, absorbing, suppressing, and sorting through the vast, boundless merit and Fortune!
Using this supreme treasure of merit to suppress the Buddhist Sect's Fortune, the Buddhist Sect's foundation became stable in an instant, its Fortune enduring without end!
Under the combined effects of boundless merit and the Primordial Violet Qi, Jieyin and Zhunti's auras began to undergo a fundamental transformation!
Their Dao Bodies, primordial spirits, and Magic Power all leaped toward a higher form of life!
A saintly might that stood above all immortals, harmonized with the Heavenly Dao, and remained indestructible through countless calamities slowly awakened and grew within them!
"Today, I, Jieyin (Zhunti), establish Buddhism, make a great vow, and bring my merit to completion, attaining the Dao and becoming a saint! From this day forth, I shall be the Western Amitabha (Buddha Mother Zhunti)!"
Two saintly pressures, slightly weaker than when Nuwa Becomes a Saint yet equally vast and boundless, representing the authority of the Heavenly Dao, erupted with a roar and swept across the entire Primordial World!
Heavenly flowers rained down, and Golden Lotuses Erupting from the Ground appeared once more. Buddhist chants echoed throughout The West, while countless rays of rosy light and thousands of auspicious colors filled the heavens!
The beings of the Primordial World were shaken once again! In a single day, two Heavenly Dao Saints had been born one after another! And through the method of establishing a sect and making great vows at that!
Kunlun Mountain, the Sun Star, the Blood Sea, Wuzhuang Temple... all great powers sensed these two new saintly auras, their emotions too complicated to put into words.
The Three Pure Ones looked grave as they felt the pressure. Di Jun and Tai Yi's faces turned livid. Old Ancestor Ming He was driven mad with jealousy.
Yet just as all living beings believed Jieyin and Zhunti would stabilize their Heavenly Dao Saint Positions from then on, another aberration arose!
Bathed in the golden sea of merit, Jieyin and Zhunti used the merit from establishing their sect and the instant of newly becoming Heavenly Dao Saints to bring their understanding of the Heavenly Dao and their own Great Daos to an unprecedented height of clarity!
They were not satisfied with this!
"Now!" Zhunti (Amitabha) cried, sharp light blazing from his eyes. "Using the foundation of sainthood, return to the source and attain the Primordial Grand Unity once more!"
BOOM!!!
Using their newly attained Heavenly Dao Saint Positions as a springboard and the immense Fortune and merit suppressed by the Twelve-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit as fuel, the two boldly drew upon their most fundamental Great Dao of Annihilation and Great Dao of Wisdom.
They launched their final and fiercest assault upon the barrier of the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal, representing true Transcendence and freedom from the restraints of the Heavenly Dao!
They intended to seize this instant of establishing a sect, becoming saints, and deeply harmonizing with the Heavenly Dao to forcibly break free of the Heavenly Dao's shackles, ascend to the heavens in a single step, and directly attain the true Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal!
Such an act was truly defiant of Heaven! The risks were immense!
But if they succeeded, they would no longer be ordinary Heavenly Dao Saints. They would become even more extraordinary and powerful beings, possessing both the status of Saints and the essence of the Primordial Grand Unity!
BZZZ—!!!
A terrifying fluctuation far surpassing that of an ordinary newly made Heavenly Dao Saint erupted from Mount Sumeru! The entire Heavenly Dao of the Primordial World seemed to tremble violently!
Ming Xin watched the scene nervously as the system issued frantic warnings and calculated every possibility.
Success or failure would be decided in this one move!
