Cultivation is just so scientific! Chapter 2131 - 1112: Buddha

In the Immortal Alliance, aside from the four factions, there are some small forces not belonging to these factions.

These small forces mostly belong to minor groups in the Cultivation World. In the past, exceptionally powerful entities have appeared, making them important factions in the Immortal Alliance. However, over time, no new powerful entities have emerged, causing these forces to become particularly inconspicuous within the Immortal Alliance.

The Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva is the representative of the Buddhist sect among these small forces. As the most powerful Bodhisattva in the Buddhist sect, he leads all the Buddhist cultivators in the Immortal Alliance.

On this day, he is performing his usual evening classes, an important course for Buddhist practitioners.

He is facing a Buddha statue, a fierce-eyed Vajra.

If Li Shiming were here, he would surely recognize that this fierce-eyed Vajra is the same Vajra he connected with while cultivating the ’Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill.’

Over the years, the ’Vajra Body Protection Divine Skill’ within him has long been eliminated, making it impossible to connect with the fierce-eyed Vajra.

He does not know that the fierce-eyed Vajra is not a void existence but a real Buddha, residing in the Upper Realm.

The Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva worships the fierce-eyed Vajra because the Vajra is the previous Buddha that ascended from the Immortal Alliance.

It is also currently the easiest Buddha to connect with; trying to connect with more ancient Buddhas is too difficult.

Just as he is about to end today’s evening class as usual, suddenly, the Buddha statue of fierce-eyed Vajra emits a faint glow.

The Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva is greatly surprised. He quickly brings his palms together towards the fierce-eyed Vajra Buddha statue, waiting quietly for any movements from it.

The sudden change of the fierce-eyed Vajra statue amazes him, as he did not actively connect with the fierce-eyed Vajra, nor has it ever happened that the fierce-eyed Vajra actively contacted him.

Sending a message from the Upper Realm to the Lower Realm requires some consumption.

Fortunately, the fierce-eyed Vajra left his Buddha statue in the Lower Realm, which contains his spiritual mark, allowing him to communicate remotely from the Upper Realm.

Without sound, the fierce-eyed Vajra statue simply transfers a message via energy to the Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva.

Upon receiving the message, the Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva’s expression changes; the fierce-eyed Vajra, this Buddha from the Upper Realm, contacts him because it discovered the depletion of faith power in the Buddhist sect of the Lower Realm.

Initially, the fierce-eyed Vajra did not pay much attention when he sensed the weakening of faith power. Every once in a while, the connection between Upper and Lower Realms is affected.

But after hundreds of years, the faith power has almost depleted completely, forcing the fierce-eyed Vajra to take it seriously.

An Upper Realm Buddha requires faith power from the Lower Realm, which must reach his Buddha statue to be acquired. Only when the Buddha statue’s faith power is abundant can a small amount penetrate the barrier for acquisition by the Upper Realm Buddha.

Since there are numerous Buddha statues in the Lower Realm, even though each statue offers limited faith power to the Upper Realm, the collective amount is substantial for Upper Realm Buddhas.

Yet now, not only the fierce-eyed Vajra, but other Buddhas also realize the depletion of faith.

The problem is other Buddhas already have a foundation in the Upper Realm; lacking faith power from the Lower Realm poses no major issues.

But the fierce-eyed Vajra is different; he is not skilled at gathering followers, with most of his faith power coming from the Lower Realm.

This time, he contacts the strongest Bodhisattva in the Lower Realm to address this issue.

The matter doesn’t require investigation; the fierce-eyed Vajra has employed special methods, at a certain cost, to identify the cultivator stealing his faith power.

The Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva saw the illusion of the faith-stealing cultivator and instantly recognized him as Li Shiming, currently in the Immortal Alliance’s eastern faction in secluded cultivation.

Knowing Li Shiming’s identity, the Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva is momentarily uncertain of how to respond.

Though he doesn’t know Li Shiming’s strength, Li Shiming is definitely a Great Celestial Envoy, not someone a mere Great Bodhisattva could oppose.

Not to mention, Li Shiming’s close relations with Li Yuanba, Li Taibai, a fellow Great Celestial Envoy, and Yin Shilan, a Daoist couple with Li Shiming.

One could say Li Shiming stands at the pinnacle of human cultivators. His faction’s top combat strength even surpasses that of the Immortal Alliance.

The Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva is at a loss and can only narrate Li Shiming’s situation to the fierce-eyed Vajra Buddha statue.

Li Shiming, Li Yuanba, Li Taibai, and Yin Shilan—these four Great Celestial Envoys—pose an unsolvable problem for the Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva. Yet, once explaining the situation to the fierce-eyed Vajra, the Vajra offered a solution.

The Great Celestial Envoys are invincible in this world, but the fierce-eyed Vajra can perform a secret technique, allowing one of his avatars to descend to the Lower Realm.

Even though the avatar’s strength in the Lower Realm is only one-tenth of the fierce-eyed Vajra’s, dealing with a Great Celestial Envoy in this world is still effortless.

One-tenth of the strength is also the maximum this world can bear.

What the Mountain and Water Great Bodhisattva needs to do now is to lure Li Shiming out of the Immortal Alliance; he can’t act within the Immortal Alliance.

The eastern faction of the Immortal Alliance is managed by Li Yuanba, while the southern faction is managed by the Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu, both from the same sect. If action is taken within the Immortal Alliance, they will both interfere.

Moreover, although the fierce-eyed Vajra is in the Upper Realm, he won’t simultaneously offend the Immortal Alliance.
