Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1089 - 454: Gathering of All Races (Part 2)

Surveying his surroundings, Lin Xuankong gave a faint nod, musing inwardly: The Human Race's power stands not far behind that of the Profound Yin Demon Sect. The gap exists mainly in their paths of cultivation; the Immortal Realm's humans split into numerous Immortal Sects along with the Spirit Platform Buddhism sects. Amid those endless clouds before them, Spirit Platform Buddhism fields no fewer than thirty-two Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas. Counting in the Strongest Immortal Lords brings the total beyond sixty!

By contrast, though the Profound Yin Demon Sect boasts mighty strength with its seventy-two terrifying Demon Lord-level experts, the Immortal Realm Human Race counters with more than sixty Strongest Immortal Lord-level powerhouses—a difference that's not so vast.

Even now, confronting the horde of Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas from Spirit Platform Buddhism hovering above the clouds, Lin Xuankong retained the calm to let his thoughts drift. The True Disciple Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals and other disciples at the hall's entrance showed deep reverence toward him.

Guang Ling’Er, True Disciple of Guangqing Immortal Sect, together with a Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortal from Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect, and a few disciples from Flying Cloud Immortal Sect, first bowed deeply toward the clouds:

"Guang Ling’Er, True Disciple of Guangqing Immortal Sect, welcomes the Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism!"

"Wan Lu, True Disciple of Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect, welcomes the Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism!"

"Qi Ming, True Disciple of Flying Cloud Immortal Sect, welcomes the Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism!"

Following the chorus of greetings from elders and true disciples across the immortal sects, the clouds overhead slowly lowered toward the meeting hall's entrance.

Clothed in splendid Buddhist treasures, the many Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism nodded with warm smiles, pressing their palms together in response. The leading Great Accomplishment Bodhisattva, bearing an exceptionally benevolent expression, addressed Guang Ling’Er and the rest: "Like all of you, we've arrived this time to punish the shameless fiends of the Profound Yin Demon Sect. With united hearts, such formalities aren't necessary!"

At the sound of this Great Accomplishment Bodhisattva's exceptionally soothing voice,

all the Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals and disciples from the various sects felt a sudden clarity wash over them, easing both body and spirit.

Noticing these shifts, the Immortal Sect Earth Immortals and disciples who had just unwound showed abrupt changes in their faces, sharing looks of mutual shock and surprise in each other's gazes.

Guang Ling’Er, the true disciple of Guangqing Immortal Sect, couldn't restrain her admiration, exclaiming, "The Great Accomplishment Jade Bright Bodhisattva of Spirit Platform Buddhism truly lives up to profound mastery in Buddhist arts, renowned as the top talent beneath Great Accomplishment Yu Zhen Bodhisattva. A single sentence from Jade Bright Bodhisattva sways the heart and soul of us Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals, granting us pure clarity and deep comfort!

In this Immortal Demon War, bolstered by the Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism, the Immortal Realm Human Race holds a strong shot at crushing the Profound Yin Demon Sect's demons!"

Flattery never grows old,

even with their hearts of ironclad resolve and tranquil natures, the Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism still beamed at the praise from Guangqing Immortal Sect's Ninth Grade Perfect Level True Disciple.

Nodding gently, the Great Accomplishment Jade Bright Bodhisattva—known as the finest below Great Accomplishment Yu Zhen Bodhisattva—replied, "The young friend of Guangqing Immortal Sect flatters us too much. This Immortal Demon War threatens all Humanity, so Spirit Platform Buddhism's Bodhisattvas must step in! Besides, the Immortal Realm's Immortal Sects hoard wondrous immortal arts. Spirit Platform Buddhism's Spiritual Words pale in comparison, mere trifles on display!

What's more, prior to reaching Central State's Divine Dynasty Western Region, word reached me that Mr. Lin Xuankong crafted countless Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts for the Immortal Realm's Strongest Immortal Lords via his matchless refining prowess. Armed with such Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts, Spirit Platform Buddhism likely won't see much action in this Immortal Demon War!

Of course, it brings immense joy to Spirit Platform Buddhism that you young friends have come here expressly to welcome us!"

This Great Accomplishment Bodhisattva of Spirit Platform Buddhism spoke devoid of any pretensions from a Strongest Immortal Lord-level expert, leaving the dozens of Immortal Realm Earth Immortals feeling utterly at ease.

However,

reflecting on the statement from this Great Accomplishment Bodhisattva of Spirit Platform Buddhism,

the dozens of Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals gathered there instinctively shifted their gazes toward Lin Xuankong while relaxing.

The emergence of Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts truly elevates the morale of virtually all Earth Immortals in the Immortal Realm Human Race ahead of the looming Immortal Demon War, with Lin Xuankong—as the prime instigator of these shifts—emerging as a frequent conversation piece among Immortal Realm Human Race Earth Immortals during recent tea sessions and meals.

At this juncture,

these dozens of Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals, who offered reverent greetings to the array of Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas from Spirit Platform Buddhism, likewise esteemed Lin Xuankong highly for bestowing dozens of Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts. Though not overly shocked, every one of them nurtured a spark of envy and reverence deep within.

Right then,

a voice laced with deep feeling abruptly echoed from behind the throng of Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism, "Fellow Daoist Lin!"

The many Ninth Grade Perfect Level Earth Immortals lifted their sights to behold a white-robed Bodhisattva, positioned amid the Great Accomplishment Bodhisattvas of Spirit Platform Buddhism, who had glided forward from the flank and settled nearby Lin Xuankong.

Spotting the newcomer, Lin Xuankong’s expression instantly bloomed into a broad smile as he clasped his hands politely, "Galin Bodhisattva, long time no see!"

Galin Bodhisattva, featuring a strikingly handsome visage and draped in radiant golden Buddha’s Light, regarded Lin Xuankong standing before her, offered a gentle nod, and pressed her palms together, "Who could have foreseen that after just a few years, Mr. Lin’s Immortal Path Realm would surpass Galin’s! Back then, my master, Great Accomplishment Yu Zhen Bodhisattva, repeatedly commended my superior wisdom root, insisting my Buddhist technique cultivation would advance swiftly without bounds—yet beside Mr. Lin, my vaunted wisdom root falls far short! Let alone that Mr. Lin now refines Fourth-Grade Immortal Artifacts—utterly impressive!"

Galin Bodhisattva is without doubt a rare genius, for otherwise Great Accomplishment Yu Zhen Bodhisattva of Spirit Platform Buddhism would not have chosen her as the most treasured disciple! Yet as Galin Bodhisattva herself noted, no matter how exceptional her wisdom root, it pales against Lin Xuankong’s blazing cultivation pace and artifact-forging mastery!

Encountering this longtime companion, Lin Xuankong harbored no desire to show off; he simply plunged a hand into the Golden Patterned Ghost Frog Pouch at his waist, withdrew the Buddhist treasure Galin Bodhisattva had bestowed upon him years prior, and grinned, "Without Galin Bodhisattva’s lavish gift from back then, Xuankong might never have attained this level of cultivation!"

Having said this, Lin Xuankong pondered silently: I wonder whether the Spirit Treasures, Spirit Fruits, and Elixirs I’ve gathered might prove useful to Galin Bodhisattva. Should they offer any aid, I could perhaps extend a humble token in gratitude for her past support!

Galin Bodhisattva revealed a gentle smile, "Mr. Lin truly boasts a peerless wisdom root, displaying no arrogance amid his meteoric strength surge and matchless artifact-refining skill. A temperament and wisdom root like this are ideally matched for our Spirit Platform Buddhism!"

Lin Xuankong: ....

Galin Bodhisattva, oh Galin Bodhisattva, I’ve racked my brains over repaying your earlier kindness,

yet you’re now sweet-talking me into joining Spirit Platform Buddhism as a monk forsaking all desires—that won’t do, it really won’t, no way at all!

The encounter between old acquaintances Galin Bodhisattva and Lin Xuankong right now sparked a warm, delightful ambiance,

as Great Accomplishment Jade Bright Bodhisattva, heading the forefront of Spirit Platform Buddhism’s Bodhisattvas, found herself unable to refrain from keenly examining Lin Xuankong.
