The Immortal Cultivation Game Has Come True-Chapter 480 - 351: The State Preceptor of the Peacock Dynasty!_2
Chapter 480: Chapter 351: The State Preceptor of the Peacock Dynasty!_2
Tang Xuanzang bowed in his heart and quickly stepped forward to kowtow.
“Disciple Tang Xuanzang, I greet the Tathagata Buddha.”
Although he had an inkling of dissatisfaction in his heart due to the two monks’ matters, as a disciple of the Shimen, he was still filled with respect when facing the highest standing Tathagata Buddha.
Compared to Tang Xuanzang’s genuine respect,
Monkey King, Zhu Bajie and others were much more casual, coming to Tang Xuanzang’s side and kneeling down on one knee.
“We pay homage to the Tathagata Buddha!”
For them, the reverence for the Tathagata Buddha was merely because he was their senior in cultivation, regardless of whether they practiced Buddhism or demonology.
“Tang Xuanzang, it has not been easy for you to travel westward to Ling Mountain to fetch the scriptures, and according to reason, I should bestow upon you the Mahayana Dharma!”
On the high platform,
The voice of Tathagata Buddha was resounding like the loudest echo effect, reverberating throughout the main hall.
“However, since ancient times, the Dharma has not been lightly transmitted and must go through eighty-one kalpas to achieve proper fruition!”
The voice was still so resounding.
In the entire main hall, including Maitreya, Guanyin, and all Buddhas and sentient beings, everyone just watched Tang Xuanzang quietly.
Upon hearing these words,
Kneeling on the ground, Tang Xuanzang felt a sudden shock in his heart. He wasn’t foolish and could tell from these words that he probably couldn’t obtain the Mahayana Dharma for now.
As expected,
He heard the voice of the Tathagata Buddha on the high platform sounding again!
“Tang Xuanzang, since you haven’t completed eighty-one hardships, I cannot bestow upon you the Mahayana Dharma!”
Upon hearing this,
Tang Xuanzang lifted his head and squinted his eyes to endure the dazzling light while looking at the exalted Tathagata Buddha.
“I dare ask the Tathagata Buddha, what must I do to obtain the Mahayana Dharma?”
If it weren’t for sticking to this belief for decades, if it weren’t for his keenness to know whether the Mahayana Dharma or the Black Wind Country’s economy and law could save the world, Tang Xuanzang really wanted to leave everything behind.

That’s not how you play a game with people.
In fact,
After such a long time of struggle and setbacks,
Tang Xuanzang could see clearly that the demons who caught him all the way were probably nurtured by Shimen.
Why do I say that?
Not to mention where the news about eating his Tang Monk’s flesh for eternal life came from, leading to the demons’ knowledge along the way,
The other point was that after being caught by these demons, they seemed to be in a hurry but always found various reasons not to eat him.
Some demons said that they needed to wash and dry him for several days in a ventilated place,
Some said that they had to abstain from eating Tang Monk’s flesh for several days,
Others said that they had to find an auspicious day to eat Tang Monk’s flesh!
In any case, they would catch him but wouldn’t eat him, waiting for his eldest disciple, Monkey King, to come to the rescue before saving him.
And these demons who caught him were either mounts of gods in the Heavenly Court or Buddhas in Shimen.
Do they really think Tang Xuanzang is a fool?
Tang Xuanzang may be pure-hearted and determined, but this does not mean he is foolish or stupid!!
At this moment,
Seeing Tang Xuanzang like this,
On the high platform, the Tathagata looked somewhat astonished, feeling that there was something different about Tang Xuanzang, but he couldn’t pinpoint what it was.
Before the end of the Tribulation, even he, the number one person in the Three Realms, could only grope in the fog and could not deduce the details of the events.
“Tang Xuanzang, you go to the Peacock Dynasty for some practice… After five years, return to Ling Mountain, and I will teach you the Mahayana Dharma!” Tathagata said indifferently.
Five years?
Tang Xuanzang slightly adjusted his position, and the days when he was the county magistrate of Black Wind Country more than forty years ago emerged in his mind.
Frankly,
He felt the happiest time in his life was not in the glorious Tang Dynasty’s Water and Land Dharma Assembly,
But in the Black Wind Country, when he followed Instructor Dao Guang, when he worked with the great workers in the production workshop,
When he improved and invented lathes, enhancing productivity so that people could have better things,
It was when he finally became the county magistrate and genuinely changed the poverty of the county that the people eagerly saw him off!
The past events, like a slideshow, flashed through Tang Xuanzang’s mind continuously.
On the high platform,
The Tathagata Buddha’s face changed drastically.
He found that the tribulation on the kneeling Tang Xuanzang was decreasing at a visible speed, continuously flowing southward.
“Not good!”
Tathagata’s heart secretly uttered a bad feeling, and he didn’t care about too much at the moment, directly waving his big hand towards Tang Xuanzang. “Go, go to the Peacock Dynasty for experience!”
Inside the main hall.
Tang Xuanzang’s mind was still constantly recalling his life.
But suddenly.
An incredibly huge, irresistible force descended, and he fainted on the spot.
In a daze.
It seemed like he heard a voice…
“Monkey King, you go to the Peacock Dynasty Palace quickly, this seat has already sent your master…”
Before he could hear the specifics, he lost consciousness completely.
Peacock Dynasty.
Inside the guest room of the palace’s inner courtyard.
“Hmmm…”
Tang Xuanzang slowly regained consciousness, feeling that the surrounding environment was extremely unfamiliar, filled with the exotic flavor of curry.
Wasn’t I at Ling Mountain’s Great Leiyin Temple just now? How did I suddenly appear here?
That’s right… Tathagata Buddha wanted me to come to the Peacock Dynasty for experience; could it be that this place is the Peacock Dynasty?
Tang Xuanzang sat up, squinting his eyes as he looked around blankly!
At this moment.
Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and the others, seeing that their master had awakened, quickly gathered around him to ask with concern.
“Master, you’re awake!”
“Wukong, Bajie… where is this for thy master…?” Tang Xuanzang rubbed his temples, feeling puzzled.
“Hey- Master, the Tathagata Buddha in his heart is kind and couldn’t bear you continuing on your journey, so he waved his big hand and directly threw you into the palace of the Peacock Dynasty.”
Sun Wukong’s eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: “And, the Tathagata Buddha is quite a good person-”
Hearing this.
Zhu Bajie on the side kept rolling his eyes; that Tathagata really was a great person… tsk tsk!
Seeing this.
Tang Xuanzang always felt that something was wrong, but he didn’t know what exactly was amiss.
In any case, the trip to the Ling Mountain Shimen left him extremely disappointed. The originally imagined supreme faith had inadvertently developed cracks. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
At this moment.
Knock- Knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door.
A guard entered a few seconds later, holding a folded piece of paper in his hand.
Everyone looked, and they saw the guard unfold the paper in his hand, read to Tang Xuanzang lying on the bed, saying:
“Tang Xuanzang, receive the decree… by the order of His Majesty, you are to immediately take up the position of National Master of the Peacock Dynasty for a term of five years… no mistakes are allowed!”
“Master, why are you stunned? This is for you to be an official!” Sun Wukong laughed with his hand over his mouth.
Tang Xuanzang finally reacted, hurriedly getting up from the bed, and respectfully paying a bow to the decree in the guard’s hand.
This is a sign of respect for the ‘Human Emperor’!
After the bow, he stepped forward to receive the Peacock Dynasty King’s decree from the guard’s hand.
“Poor monk accepts the decree!” Tang Xuanzang said solemnly.
“Hmm.”
The guard smiled slightly, cupped his hands toward Tang Xuanzang, and said: “National Master, you rest first. After His Majesty finishes his work, he will come to see you!”
With that, the guard turned and left.
Inside the room.
Tang Xuanzang looked at the decree in his hand, silent.
After a long while.
“Forget it, let’s see how this Peacock Dynasty at the foot of Ling Mountain compares to Taoist Master’s Black Wind Nation!”
He had a faint feeling in his heart.
Perhaps there is no need for Mahayana Buddhism; just observing this Peacock Dynasty would reveal the outcome as to whether achieving Buddhism can save the world or whether the economic and legal system of the Black Wind Nation can save the world!
Not to mention the game world, where Tang Xuanzang is about to take up the position of National Master.
Real World.
On Jupiter.
Xuanqing’s cultivation was nearing its end….
