Chapter 251: Chapter 225: Intimidating the Western Sect

Taishang Saint’s expression changed as he instantly understood Bai Jin’s meaning, saying indignantly, "To plunder the souls of the Human Clan to stabilize the Buddha Country, the Western Sect Disciples are audacious indeed! No wonder I’ve felt the Western Sect’s recent behavior to be sneaky; it turns out Jieyin and Zhunti were the ones causing mischief in the shadows."

Nuwa also spoke angrily, "The Western Sect even dares to plunder the souls of the Human Clan."

Bai Jin quietly added, "There may also be living people. There are many from the Human Clan living in the Western regions, and abducting some would be very difficult to notice. The Western Sect also cultivates the Power of Faith, which is not much different from that of the divine beings who believe in the Divine Dao."

Taishang looked at Bai Jin, saying with approval, "You have done a great job with this matter, Bai Jin. I will settle the score with the Western Sect."

Bai Jin quickly spoke with modesty, "Disciple does not dare take credit, it is all thanks to Master’s teachings. Without Master’s guidance on the direction to investigate, disciple would never have discovered the Western Sect’s undercover doings."

Extending his hand forward, a scroll appeared in his palm as he spoke respectfully, "Master, these are the names I have investigated."

Taishang motioned with his hand, and the scroll flew over, landing in his hands. Glancing at the scroll, he said with emotion, "All these are the good disciples taught by Jieyin and Zhunti."

Nuwa looked at Taishang, apologizing, "It turns out Brother has been investigating the Western Sect’s soul plundering all along, I have misunderstood you."

"Sigh~ What are you talking about, Junior Sister? Ultimately, it was my negligence, focusing only on the overall situation of the Human Clan and overlooking the local issues.

Junior Sister, in your opinion, how should we deal with the Western Sect’s actions?"

Nuwa’s tone turned chilly as she said, "Naturally, they should all be slain as a warning to others!"

"Who should carry it out?"

Nuwa looked at Bai Jin.

Taishang also looked at Bai Jin, nodding with a smile, "Very well!" With a wave of his hand, the scroll flew out and settled into Bai Jin’s palm.

Bai Jin’s heart jumped, and with a pained expression, he said, "Master, just unearthing this affair and its causes and effects is already my limit. The Western Sect has numerous disciples, and there are also two Sect Hierarchs. Where do I have the audacity to act recklessly? Master, Uncle Master, spare my life!"

Bai Jin looked pitifully at the two respected Saints in front of him.

Taishang spoke kindly, "Do not shirk responsibility; as this matter began with you, it should also end with you."

With a beckoning motion, a carrying pole flew from the corner of the room, transforming into a purple walking staff before Bai Jin, as Taishang said, "Take it!"

Nuwa waved her hand, and a streak of light descended from the sky, materializing in front of Bai Jin as a grey whip.

It seemed there was no way to refuse, and with respect, Bai Jin bowed deeply, saying, "Disciple obeys the order!"

Taking the staff and whip in hand, with the Saints’ testament Supreme Treasures in his grasp, he felt immensely powerful. If only he could avoid going to the Western Sect, that would be even better.

Nuwa stood up, bowed, and said, "Brother, I was impulsive this time, please forgive me."

Taishang Saint also stood up, stroking his beard with a gentle smile, "You’re too kind, Junior Sister; there is also my oversight."

"Regarding the matter of the Western Sect, I entrust it to you, Brother."

"Very well!" Taishang nodded his head.

Nuwa’s figure faded away, leaving only Taishang and Bai Jin in the grand hall, the atmosphere suddenly falling into silence.

Taishang, looking at Bai Jin with a smile that was not quite a smile, said, "Did I tell you to investigate this?"

Bai Jin replied with an embarrassed smile, "I stumbled upon it accidentally. Hearing that Nuwa came to the Eight Sceneries Palace to confront you, I then borrowed your name."

"Hmm~ At least you still show some filial piety. Now tell me everything from the beginning."

"Yes!" Bai Jin honestly recounted everything he had encountered since visiting the Underworld, concluding with, "Master, Ping Xin is quite incensed right now."

Taishang spoke in hushed tones: "The heterodox paths! They are born of the Tao, yet they are not the orthodox way. Disciples of these side doors have hearts that are not steadfast, and they are prone to stray into the Demon Path."

Respectfully, Bai Jin said: "In the disciple’s view, the Buddha Demon are of the same origin, separated only by a single thought."

Taishang laughed heartily and said: "What an insight, to see the Buddha Demon as one entity! Good and evil rely on one another for existence. Bai Jin, you have begun to grasp the profound essence of Taiji. Your way should be that of the Taiji Dao."

Bowing deeply, Bai Jin replied: "Master, I will make every effort, in hopes to embark on the path of the Tao at an early date."

"First, you must deal with the Western Sect! Since both junior brothers have indulged their disciples, as their senior brother, it is my duty to help them purify the Great Sect."

"Yes!" Bai Jin gave a formal bow, then stood up and took his walking stick and whip, proceeding toward the outside.

The farther west one ventured in Primordial Continent, the more ordinary it became, with many deserts and forests, yet still inhabited by the Human Clan, giving rise to a culture distinct from the East.

Above the Eastern Nine Heavens there is Heavenly Court, while atop the Western Nine Heavens lies the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, which is the founding place of the Western Sect.

Within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, towering mountain peaks stood tall, and islands floated amidst them. Palaces were situated on both mountains and islands, with Sanskrit hymns being chanted, and warm Buddha Light shining everywhere; disciples of the Western Sect moved back and forth, in an extremely harmonious atmosphere.

Bai Jin traveled from the east of Primordial Continent to the west, ascending step by step, traversing the Nine Heavens to arrive before a grand and imposing gateway.

Whoosh~ Four awe-inspiring Divine Generals stepped out, blocking the path. Towering a hundred meters tall, they stood like four small mountains before the gate, glaring with eyes as large as copper bells at the tiny figure of Bai Jin below, emanating an air of authority without anger.

A booming voice erupted: "This is the Holy Land of the Western Sect, unwanted visitors shall retreat!"

Bai Jin bowed and said: "I ask that you inform him, Bai Jin seeks an audience with the Sect Hierarch of the Western Sect."

"The Sect Hierarch is not someone you can just meet whenever you wish."

"Ignorant brat, you know not your place!"

"Leave now, lest you blame us for being ruthless!"

Successive shouts roared like thunderbolts.

Bai Jin was here to make trouble anyway, and their attitude suited his own intentions perfectly. It would have been problematic had they been polite.

Straightening up, Bai Jin declared: "My apologies to the two revered uncles!" Infinite Sword Energy burst forth from within him, shooting towards the gate.

Boom~ The gate of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss blasted open, and the four Guardian Vajras shrieked as they were sent flying back. The chilling Sword Energy disappeared as quickly as it appeared, startling the entire Pure Land and the powerful figures of the Western Sect.

In the Pure Land of the Thirty-Three Heavens beyond outer space, Jieyin and Zhunti sat upright, the former with furrowed brows looking down, observing everything happening within the Pure Land World on the Primordial Continent.

Jieyin asked with a troubled expression, "Junior brother is wise. How should we deal with this situation now?"

Zhunti said leisurely: "Bai Jin bears a decree from Nuwa and Taishang, we must acknowledge our loss. Now is not the time to openly break with Nuwa and Taishang."

Sighing, Jieyin said: "The rejuvenation of our Western Sect is indeed a challenging task."

Zhunti replied with a smile: "Brother, our Western Sect is not to be humiliated lightly. If Bai Jin causes a commotion in our Western Sect, then I will ensure the Eastern lands will not be at peace either."

"Do you already have a plan, junior brother?"

"Just watch," said Zhunti.

...

Below in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, the Buddha Light illuminated everything. Within the Buddha Light, disciples of the Western Sect sat cross-legged on Golden Lotuses, glaring angrily at Bai Jin as he walked through the gate.
