Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 373

Chapter 373: The inheritance of the sky, choose at will

three randomly chosen tests concluded. Most performed mediocrely, with Yuan Wuxing, a rare exception, able to penetrate even a single suffering.

Others, while unable to penetrate any suffering, experienced a life of suffering that elevated their mental state.

The inheritance hidden above the Secret Realm of All Beings seemed to be crumbling, as if it had found its ideal candidate.

Yuan Wuxing awoke from his sleep, unconsciously muttering, “This is real, but what about that?”

He silently recited a Heart Cleansing Mantra, completely detaching his consciousness from the dream, realizing that the Nine Provinces world was the true world.

“So that was just a dream.” Only then did he realize that his century-long life was but a dream.

A peacock’s cry echoed throughout the Secret Realm. A proud, colorful peacock descended before Yuan Wuxing, gently poking his forehead with its beak.

“Is this the inheritance of the Great Peacock King?” A knowledgeable cultivator exclaimed in astonishment. The Great Peacock King was renowned for his all-encompassing, five-colored divine light.

The Peacock King’s inheritance is considered among the best in the Secret Realm of All Beings.

“But it’s said that the Five-Colored Divine Light is difficult to cultivate, and some have spent decades without even beginning.”

Upon learning that this was the Peacock King’s inheritance, many cultivators looked at Yuan Wuxing with unfriendly eyes.

Yuan Wuxing was all too familiar with this look; every time Qin Luan obtained a treasure from the Secret Realm, people gave him the same look.

He hadn’t expected it would be his turn this time.

Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva chanted “Amitabha,” saying, “Buddha saves those with a predestined relationship.” These cultivators, upon seeing something valuable, simply snatched it away, forcing a connection. Their character was so poor that it was no wonder no inheritance had chosen them. Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva,

however, wasn’t concerned for Yuan Wuxing’s safety. This donor was already in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm. In terms of combat power, even a late-stage Spiritualization Realm cultivator would be no match for him. He was truly formidable.

As long as the Fusion Realm cultivators stayed out of the way, this donor would be safe.

Yuan Wuxing briefly reviewed the inheritance, suddenly realizing the truth, and then beaming with joy.

“Although I received the Five-Colored Divine Light cultivation method from Mr. Jiang at the Sword Tomb, it was too difficult. I’ve painstakingly cultivated for years and only scratched the surface.”

Yuan Wuxing had always believed that the Five-Colored Divine Light was this difficult to cultivate, until he received the inheritance from the Peacock King today.

If Mr. Jiang gave Yuan Wuxing a booklet, then the inheritance he received today was a dictionary.

The contents were identical.

“Mr. Jiang simplified so many steps for me?”

Yuan Wuxing thought the Peacock King’s inheritance was easy to cultivate successfully.

Recalling his dream, he gently circulated his spiritual energy, and a flash of Five-Colored Divine Light appeared at his fingertips.

Jiang Li, observing this, shook his head. Years had passed before Yuan Wuxing had mastered the Five-Colored Divine Light to this level.

“When I taught him the Five-Colored Divine Light, I clearly wrote down the steps so clearly. How could he be learning so slowly?”

He had originally mastered the Five-Colored Divine Light in just two weeks.

Several others subsequently inherited the inheritance, but they were all lesser-known Bodhisattvas and Arhats, far from Yuan Wuxing’s level of skill.

“Wait, where is my Manjushri Bodhisattva inheritance?” Jiang Li was surprised. He performed so well in the three tests, why didn’t the Manjushri Bodhisattva inheritance take a fancy to him?

Bai Hongtu was also surprised. His telepathy inheritance couldn’t find him either.

Xiangxiang Bodhisattva stopped Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu and sent the others out of the secret realm.

“Human Emperor, Sect Leader Bai.” Xiangxiang Bodhisattva saluted.

“Xiangxiang Bodhisattva has a good eye. We pretended to be ordinary practitioners, but we were still recognized.” Bai Hongtu praised.

Xiangxiang Bodhisattva: “…”

I need to close my eyes now to practice the clairvoyance, but it doesn’t mean I’m blind.

“Can Bodhisattva explain why no inheritance has found us?”

Xiangxiang Bodhisattva thought to himself, apart from the fact that you two don’t meet the inheritance requirements at all, what other reasons are there?

But monks don’t lie. Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva replied, “Perhaps you two are beyond ordinary life, possessing unique mindsets that exceed the requirements of the inheritance.”

“Are you seeking a legacy from the Secret Realm of All Beings? I can mobilize a portion of the legacy from the Secret Realm of All Beings.”

“Bai Hongtu and I both desire Manjushri Bodhisattva’s legacy. Can Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva summon it?”

Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva attempted to summon Manjushri Bodhisattva’s legacy, but the sky remained silent.

After three attempts, Fragrant Elephant Bodhisattva said regretfully, “Human Emperor, please forgive me, I cannot mobilize Manjushri Bodhisattva’s legacy.”

“The Secret Realm of All Beings was created by a powerful Buddha from the Celestial Realm. Who that Buddha was is unknown. Therefore, our Buddhist sect cannot fully control the Secret Realm.”

Bai Hongtu asked curiously, “How can we fully control it?”

“Only by mastering the profound mysteries of Buddhism, on par with that powerful Buddha from the Celestial Realm, can we control it.”

Jiang Li suddenly asked, “Can Manjushri Bodhisattva’s legacy come out and see it?”

A hazy light shone from the sky above the Secret Realm. A phantom Bodhisattva, with five knots on his head and riding a lion, descended on a cloud before Jiang Li, transforming into a sword of wisdom.

“Is this the inheritance of Manjushri Bodhisattva?” Xiangxiang Bodhisattva was shocked. No matter how he called out, it didn’t appear. Instead, Jiang Li just said a few words and the inheritance appeared?

Jiang Li held the Sword of Wisdom in his hand and knew the content of Manjushri Bodhisattva’s inheritance.

There is no wisdom without reason. Only by constantly reading books, increasing the amount of knowledge, and applying it skillfully, can it be considered wisdom.

“This method is interesting. The more books you read, the more things you know, and the higher your cultivation will be.”

The inheritance of Manjushri Bodhisattva encouraged Jiang Li to read more.

Jiang Li was not interested and handed the Sword of Wisdom to Bai Hongtu.

“The inheritance of Manjushri Bodhisattva you wanted.”

Bai Hongtu thought to himself, “What’s the use of this thing? Reading books can make people stronger.

How can reading help me defeat Jiang Li?

Bai Hongtu couldn’t say directly that he wanted his telepathic inheritance.

Jiang Li suddenly realized something and whispered, “Other inheritances can also manifest.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Secret Realm of All Living Beings trembled. The sky shone with boundless golden light, and the Buddha’s aura was so rich it seemed almost tangible, possessing weight.

“Eighteen Arhats… Samantabhadra… Avalokitesvara… Ksitigarbha… Vajra Indestructible Buddha… Precious Moonlight Buddha… Immaculate Buddha…”

Xiangxiang Bodhisattva recited these names like thunder, her throat dry, and she swallowed hard.

A sky full of inheritances from arhats, bodhisattvas, and Buddhas appeared before Jiang Li, ready for him to choose.

Bai Hongtu even spotted the inheritance of telepathy he desired.

He secretly called out for it, but the other party ignored him.

“…Isn’t your discrimination too obvious?”

“You’re calling out every inheritance in the Secret Realm of All Living Beings!?” Xiangxiang Bodhisattva thought she was dreaming, but this scene completely overturned her understanding.

There are so many inheritances here that Buddhism doesn’t possess, less than half of them.

“How did you do it?” Xiangxiang Bodhisattva was so shocked that she forgot to be shocked and regarded Jiang Li as a god.

Although she had always thought that Jiang Li was a magical person.

Jiang Li said innocently: “I suddenly felt that I could shout them out, so I tried it casually. I didn’t expect it to actually work.”
