Chapter 1341 - Trying Too Hard
After his pleasant surprise, Jiang Chen wondered where the folks of the Sacred Zone had gone. He also thought about how to reduce the casualties of his people when he was carrying out the Sovereign Spirit Project. Since Blood Slaves were everywhere, the spearhead of the Blood Race would attack them right away before they could retreat. The worst-case scenario Jiang Chen had thought about was to die if the Sacred Zone was eliminated.
After making sure the Evil Blood Emperor did not know the whereabouts of the folks of the Sacred Zone either, Jiang Chen let him go into the Buddhist Relic. Gazing at the Buddhist Relic, his fingers pressing against its smooth surface, he could not help but be lost in thought. The Buddhist Relic was not just a simple spiritual medium. What he was sure of was that it had helped him to improve his understanding of Buddhism a lot.
“World” is an interesting word in Chinese. It is made up of two characters, “Shi” and “Jie”. “Jie” means the partition of space: east, west, south, north, above, below, and so on are called the ten directions. “Shi” means the passing of time. The past, the present, and the future are called the three worlds.
The Mahavairocana Abhisambodhi Tantra Jiang Chen practiced was composed of three chapters: the Chapter of the Past, the Chapter of the Present, and the Chapter of the Future. Everything seems to be connected in a way. It is called karma in Buddhism. “Am I connected with Buddha or is Buddha connected with me?” That was what Jiang Chen was pondering, but it was impossible to find the answer to this question.
At this moment, he clearly felt the restrictions of the World of Bloody Sea had been lifted and people could come and go freely through Sacred Spirits. Those who had left earlier all returned. Seeing Jiang Chen standing there safe and sound, they realized right away that the Evil Blood Emperor had been eliminated. Feeling thrilled, they felt that Jiang Chen even looked larger. A crisis had been resolved. Led by Jiang Chen, except for Xiao Yuan, who kind of killed himself, none of them died or was injured. It was almost a miracle!
Then each Sacred Lord heard the voice of the Sacred Spirit. It asked everyone to leave. After all the commotion, the World of Bloody Sea was extremely unstable. It had to be closed for some time. Those who had been eager to leave felt unwilling to leave at the moment. Since the crisis had been resolved, the World of Bloody Sea seemed charming to them again.
Jiang Chen and Man Tianyin parted with the crowd. Both of them felt unwilling to say good-bye. They had come here through different passages. In leaving, Jiang Chen would go back to the Heavenly Palace. And Man Tianyin would go back to the Sovereign Spirit Palace located in the Eighth Realm.
Jiang Chen felt awkward, but what the divine tree said next caught his attention.
“Given your excellent performance, you can choose any treasure you want.”
