CHAPTER 799: CHAPTER 727: MEETING NUWA IN A DREAM

Diting hurriedly asked, "Bodhisattva, where are you going?"

"To the Heavenly Court!"

"Bodhisattva, are you really planning to seek refuge in the Heavenly Court?"

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva sternly replied, "Don’t speak nonsense, this humble monk is sincerely loyal to Buddhism." The incarnation strode out of the Ksitigarbha Treasure Hall.

Diting looked quietly at the solemn-faced Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva on the Lotus Platform. Perhaps you’ve forgotten my ability; I can hear all things, adept at discerning human hearts, as well as Buddha hearts. It is clear that your heart has been moved. Oh, where should I go now!

...

In the Heavenly Court Bird’s Nest, Bai Jin warmly welcomed the visiting Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. After a friendly conversation, he saw Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva off, also giving some Heavenly Court specialties, such as Flat Peach Fresh Fruit, Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow, Jadescent Nectar, and the like, bringing tears of gratitude to Ksitigarbha’s eyes. It’s still the Heavenly Court that treats me well! Buddhism has never given me anything.

Inside the Bird’s Nest, Bai Jin sat cross-legged in the practice room, a Star Map spinning above his head, drawing endless Star Power, forming a Star River cascading down. Below was flawless Spirit Jade, emitting a strong Immortal Spirit Power, mist hovering like a smoky sea.

Bai Jin sat among it, his expression a bit heavy, and he quietly reviewed the information he had received.

First is Yang Chan; Yang Chan suddenly became very unusual. Although there is an explanation of a Heart Barrier, the change is too drastic. Who gave her the confidence to bring Nuwa into the fray? Who gave her the courage to confront Nuwa? And the appearance of that old Taoist was too coincidental.

The second point, Nuwa suddenly went into seclusion, the reason being to escort the Buddha to the Nuwa Palace, coincidentally causing Nuwa’s seclusion, and then Yang Chan got into trouble, which is also very coincidental.

The third point, Mu Zha once heard Guanyin mentioning the Heavenly Court, perhaps he misheard, perhaps Buddhism is truly seeking its own demise.

Bai Jin murmured, "Nuwa, Yang Chan, what role does the Heavenly Court, and Buddhism play in all this?

If that old Taoist is indeed a disguise by Buddhism, then it all makes sense."

Bai Jin nodded to himself and muttered, "The information is too little, a small error could lead to a significant mistake. I cannot simply speculate; I must ask Nuwa why she went into seclusion."

Bai Jin had a premonition in his heart; the reason for Nuwa’s seclusion is undoubtedly significant. As long as he knows the reason, everything else might unravel. Only by understanding the cause and effect can he act boldly, otherwise, any mistake could backfire, pushing the matter beyond redemption.

Bai Jin closed his eyes, entering a dream world.

In a vast world, five supreme Divine Palaces stood firmly, suppressing Heaven and Earth.

A Divine Light shot from the Sky Vault, boom—the light fell before Nuwa’s Divine Palace, scattering around, and from within the divine light emerged a figure, it was Bai Jin.

Bai Jin straightened his clothes, facing the majestic Divine Palace, solemnly bowing, respectfully saying, "Disciple Bai Jin requests to see Nuwa~" Long bow without rising.

The Divine Palace remained motionless, in silence.

After a moment, Bai Jin slowly rose, murmuring, "Madam, you remain in seclusion, with no one to uphold justice in the Three Realms, something major may happen, and this disciple has no choice but to act rashly!"

Bai Jin extended his hand, pushing towards the Divine Palace door, rumble—the door opened, the interior bright as daylight, a towering divine statue stood deep within the palace, graceful posture, the stone carving and light veil seemingly fluttering in the wind.

Step~step~step~ Bai Jin entered the Divine Palace, the crisp echo resonating within the great hall, he respectfully bowed on the cushion, "Disciple pays respects to Madam! I plead for Madam to appear."

In the vast void, there was no time, no space, no past or future, no fate or causation.

Nuwa sat cross-legged on a Cloud Bed in the void, surrounded by heavenly flowers cascading down, Golden Lotuses emerging, and a pink Heavenly Dao Dharma Wheel phantom appeared before her.

On the Heavenly Dao Dharma Wheel phantom, images emerged one by one, people with people, beasts with beasts, people with beasts, men with men, women with women, all varieties present.

Nuwa’s serene expression shifted slightly, she slowly opened her eyes, the rotation of the eyes’ wheels, indifferent as the supreme Heavenly Dao, then a touch of liveliness appeared in her indifferent gaze, a thought moved, sending a trace of her mind outward.

In the dream world within the Divine Palace, the statue of Nuwa suddenly became animated, her eyes moved, looking at Bai Jin below, a mighty voice resounded within the palace, "Rise!"

"Thank you, Madam!"

Bai Jin quickly stood up, sat cross-legged on the cushion, joyfully saying, "Madam, you finally responded to my presence."

"Bai Jin, why call me so urgently?"

"To report to Madam, since you went into seclusion, a major event occurred in the Three Realms, and I dare not take responsibility lightly, thus I came to seek your presence."

"Oh~ what matter could have even you at a loss?" Nuwa’s tone carried some surprise. In an era without Saints bearing command, with Bai Jin’s relations, few matters in the Three Realms should trouble him.

Bai Jin said seriously, "Junior Sister Yang Chan privately coupled with a mortal, giving birth to a demigod’s son."

Boom~ a muffled thunder resounded in the dream world, the entire Heaven and Earth suddenly plunged into darkness, storm clouds rolled, and lightning flashed.

Bai Jin quickly said, "Madam, please be appeased! From what this disciple sees, there must be something suspicious about this matter."

"Speak in detail!" Nuwa’s tone carried an anger.

"Two calamities ago, Eldest Princess Yaoji privately coupled with a mortal, giving birth to Yang Jiao, Yang Jian, and Yang Chan, Nezha.

Later, Eldest Princess Yaoji was suppressed beneath Taoshan, Yang Jiao and Yang Jian opened the mountain to save their mother, causing the Heavenly Rules to turn into the Golden Crow, forcing Yaoji to hide in Yujing Mountain.

Although Yaoji survived, the separation left a Heart Barrier in Yang Chan, deepening into a Heart Demon over time.

This time, Yang Chan sought a mortal union, not for anything else, but to make the Madam intervene and alter the Heavenly Rules..."

Bai Jin recounted everything in detail, including the Taoist who guided Yang Chan and the findings uncovered by Ksitigarbha, as well as speculations about Nuwa’s seclusion.

In the vast void, Nuwa gazed silently at the Heavenly Dao Dharma Wheel before her, stretching out a hand to grasp within the illusory wheel, three items floated out: a Red Embroidery Ball, a Marriage Book, and two connected Golden Locks.

Nuwa murmured angrily to herself, "Good for you, Guide!" Looking at the Heavenly Dao Dharma Wheel before her, she found herself in a dilemma, her expression full of hesitation.

Within the dream world, Bai Jin respectfully said, "Madam, why did you go into seclusion?"

"Bai Jin, I have already understood Buddhism’s intentions."

Bai Jin’s eyes brightened, Buddhism’s calculations were indeed related to the Madam, and he quickly said, "Please, Madam, enlighten me."
