Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 532 - 302: Primordial Great Power’s First Outing (Part 2)
After this, a large population is still required.
No, it’s countless Immortals.
Fortunately, the Primordial World now does not lack Immortals. In fact, the number has become so overwhelming that it’s necessary to limit the difficulty of cultivation to reduce the influx of new Immortals.
Otherwise, Celestial Emperor resources would have run out long ago.
In a sense, the number of Immortals continues to grow uncontrollably, which is one of the reasons why the Primordial World has consistently attempted to break through the world and search beyond.
As such, when Shen Yu put forth his demands, the Celestial Emperor agreed without hesitation.
Subsequently, the situation developed just as expected.
While those Great Powers had been seeking departure from this world, almost no one refused Shen Yu’s demands.
More and more individuals came forward voluntarily.
Not only recognized Taiyi Golden Immortals like Erlang Shen and Nezha, but even some powerful Daluo Golden Immortals actively approached.
For instance, Shen Yu’s teacher, Bodhi Ancestor.
Of course, Bodhi Ancestor stated that he merely wanted to take a look and feel the different worlds.
The current Primordial World is far from safe. Conflicts continue, and threats still loom. In such conditions, Shen Yu cannot take too many strong figures away.
Ultimately, the first batch of candidates were still the two suggested by the Jade Emperor.
It was the first time Shen Yu met the Buddha.
Before this, the representative from the Western Bliss World was Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva; the Buddha hadn’t appeared.
He seemed high up on his lotus throne for a long time.
Now stands for the first time in the extended eternity.
If not for his distinctly striking image, Shen Yu would have considered him more like an ordinary, amiable monk rather than the Buddha.
"How does the World-Honored One perceive me?" Seeing Shen Yu’s gaze, the Buddha opened his arms, showcasing himself openly.
Without the imagined might of Shen Yu.
This is the Buddha whom countless worlds and Buddhist gates worship daily.
It’s safe to say that Shen Yu realized his stereotypes are somewhat severe.
Nonetheless, Shen Yu is always ready to correct his mistakes.
Facing the Buddha’s smile, he responded with a smile: "The fault is mine. I’ve consistently maintained a misconception in the past, believing Buddhist sects resembled high, aloof Divine Spirits from Western fantasy worlds, overlooking mere ants, but only now I see the difference."
"High and aloof, overseeing all beings as ants is indeed Buddha." The Buddha smiled lightly, shaking his head. "Clothed in cassocks like countless Buddhist gates is also Buddha. Buddha isn’t a specific image but an omnipresent concept; in the heart of every Buddha-seeker, there’s a unique Buddha."
Although these words sounded profound, Shen Yu still understood his intent.
It’s saying that Shen Yu doesn’t need to define him by his impressions but doesn’t have to change his impression, for it’s not wrong either.
However, even if Shen Yu somewhat understood, it’s evident that he lacked much connection with Buddhism.
At the moment, he casually discarded that topic, simply saying, "That member has used his Association’s Contribution Points, found a vast tract of connected, yet undiscovered planes by the Wizard Civilization, and requested the member of the Interstellar Civilization to dispatch a massive legion, striving to conquer those planes swiftly and transform them into the planned civilization’s pattern ...."
Such enormous plans, relying on any Gray Mist, obviously wouldn’t be possible.
Not to mention, just locating vast planes untouched by Wizard Civilization proves difficult.
Only depending on the Gray Mist.
Luckily, the Wizard World indeed is exceptionally broad, with plane numbers far exceeding the Primordial World’s Multi-Dimensional Parallel Universe count by several magnitudes.
Currently, at least numbering in billions.
However, following Shen Yu’s words, Zhen Yuanzi directly offered different advice.
His image as the Ancestor of Earth Immortals perfectly fitting many people’s impression of Immortals.
Clad in a wide, traditional robe, with long black and white interlocked beards and hair.
Mature, carefree, natural.
Seemingly ready to soar, freely wander between heaven and earth any moment.
Even as he presented different advice now, he did so with the same elegance, causing no displeasure.
"I think we don’t need to disguise those planes as our base, but merely maintain their original pattern, just as planes we’ve conquered not long ago."
Zhen Yuanzi’s suggestion led Shen Yu to contemplate briefly.
In the end, realizing it was indeed a good recommendation.
Earlier, it wasn’t unnoticed but was intended to make this "Civilization Alliance" more specific and real, not merely part of a mysterious iceberg.
Feigning mystery for Wizard Civilization holds little significance.
But Zhen Yuanzi’s words reminded Shen Yu—they don’t need to feign mystery, just need to be themselves.
Simply conceal this Civilization Alliance’s origin from beyond the world, everything else is vividly real.
They are indeed a mysterious, powerful civilization’s vanguard.
"I’ve just messaged that member from the Wizard World, and he has agreed to proceed this way." Shen Yu smiled at the two, saying, "Now, when do you intend to go over?"
"Right now." Zhen Yuanzi calmly stroked his beard, making no attempt to hide his eager anticipation in his words.
Thus, in the next moment, Shen Yu opened the Gray Mist Space, and the two Daluo Golden Immortals entered without a moment’s hesitation.
Even though stepping out, they could feel the deadly threat from Gray Mist Space.
Yet they fully trusted Shen Yu.
Although they intended to delve deeper into experiencing Gray Mist Space, being Daluo Golden Immortals, every moment they safely linger in Gray Mist Space means immense consumption of Gray Mist.
Hence, Shen Yu merely allowed them to stay for a brief instant, subsequently guiding them into the Wizard World.
Located at an Association-occupied plane.
This plane originally inhabited a unique race bearing human-like appearances with even snowier skin but capable of nurturing magical beads, containing immense Life Force and various mystical powers, inheritable through generations.
Dubbed as "Star River Spirit Nurturing Race."
This race was initially powerful as their Extraordinary Power System could significantly pass down.
Hence, the most elite and potent existences of the civilization approximate Taiyi Golden Immortal levels.
Given time, reaching Level Ten Wizard tiers isn’t impossible.
Ultimately, Shen Yu personally intervened to barely control the situation.
As mechanical creations flooded in for rapid transformation, the plane has entirely lost its original appearance.
Of course, neither the Buddha nor Zhen Yuanzi realized these things.
Upon arriving, they both only did one thing.
Quietly perceive their surroundings.
One focusing on the ground, one gazing at the sky.
Clearly, both utterly grasped they had entered a different world!
For individuals of their caliber, these matters are deeply recognized in more profound terms.
Whether Buddha or Zhen Yuanzi, in the Primordial World, have developed an intricate connection with the Heavenly Dao, even with the Primordial World itself.
Yet now, in this completely new world, such connections no longer exist.
