Journey to the West: The Eighty-One Tribulations of Being Hairless

Since the Pangu Primordial World was promoted to a half-step Great Dao Heavenly Domain, although it is still a Great Thousand World in terms of status, its origin has already surpassed that of a top-level Great Thousand World by many times!

Therefore, it directly led to the advancement of all thirty-three heavens into the Great Thousand World!

In fact, not only the Thirty-Three Heavens, but also the Three Pure Realms of the Three Pure Ones and the Nuwa Heaven, the Daoist temple opened by Nuwa, have all been promoted to the Great Thousand Worlds because the world was attached to the Primordial World back then!

However, the Thirty-Three Heavens were originally a celestial realm derived from the primordial world itself.

That Great Luo Heaven is a world nurtured by Pangu's upper dantian, possessing many mysteries of creation, and even more so, the remaining divine will of the Great God Pangu.

However, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, which was jointly established by Zhunti and Jieyin, did not receive that fortune because it was not affiliated with the Pangu Great World. It remains only a top-tier middle-thousand world.

If it weren't for the great wisdom and great fortune of the guide, who would have opened up a vast world in the dream world!

The current Zhunti and Jieyin are probably the weakest among all the saints!

The Mysterious Embryo Nurtures Heaven!

The Great Thousand Heavens, which originated from the Pangu World, are not as independent as the Three Pure Realms and the Nuwa Heaven. Although the Three Pure Realms also settled in the Primordial World and became one of the Thirty-Six Heavens.

However, the authority over the Heavenly Dao rules of the Three Pure Realms is controlled by the Three Pure Sages.

However, the authority over material things and the authority over living beings were shared with the primordial world.

The Thirty-Three Heavens, whether it be the authority of rules (Heavenly Dao), the authority of material energy (Earthly Dao), or the authority of all living beings (Human Dao), are all part of the great will of the primordial world.

The Mysterious Embryo Nurtures Heaven!

When it ascended to become the Great Thousand World, it gave birth to a top-tier innate spiritual treasure, several excellent innate spiritual treasures, and dozens of superior innate spiritual treasures!

Unfortunately, they had already been divided up by the sages and emperors!

To repay the karmic debts of this spiritual treasure, sages from time to time preach the Great Dao in the Thirty-Three Heavens!

Because this realm possesses the very essence of creation and life, Taiqing and Nuwa often preached here, and the Human Sect even established a branch here.

Therefore, it attracted a large number of cultivators who practiced the Golden Core Dao and alchemists!

Of course, it wasn't just the Human Religion that established a branch here; in fact, all the saints had their own influence in every heaven.

The Buddhist force in the Xuan Tai Ping Yu Tian is called Ci Hang Chan Temple!

A massive mountain range, spanning tens of thousands of miles, is covered with spiritual herbs and countless immortal essences. The immortal energy is so dense that it is almost misty. As far as the eye can see, the thousands of miles of purple bamboo forest emits a melodious metallic sound when the immortal wind blows.

It sounds wonderful!

Bodhi Peak!

It is famous for a giant Bodhi tree with a height of 10,000 meters, which is said to have been propagated from the branch of the saint Zhunti. Whether this is true or not is unknown.

But it is indeed an acquired spiritual root!

Generally, acquired spiritual roots have the effect of gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and transforming the elemental energy of heaven and earth into spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It can be said that each acquired spiritual root is a living spiritual vein of heaven and earth!

The enormous plaza was filled with countless cultivators and alchemists!

This Bodhi Pill Gathering is similar to most pill gatherings!

First, several great masters of alchemy came to give lectures, explaining their understanding of alchemy. Then, they practiced alchemy. Finally, everyone shared their knowledge and experiences. Zhou Yi casually found a seat and prepared to sit down!

And many great masters of alchemy have also come this time!

The first was Bodhi Daoren, the second was Medicine Buddha of Buddhism, the third was Master Xuandu, and even Guanyin Bodhisattva, one of the four chief bodhisattvas of Buddhism, came.

After all, Cihang Temple is her sacred site!

This Bodhi Dan Gathering is not entirely for the sake of the Book of Changes, but also for the Buddhist Journey to the West Kalpa!

Zhou Yi was prepared to find a place to sit down and listen to the sage preach first, and then talk about it later!

Yes!

The Book of Changes has finally arrived!

As the saying goes, if a sage makes a move, he will have nowhere to hide within the Three Realms, unless he keeps hiding.

His purpose in coming here was twofold: first, to hear the great teachings of the sages; and second, to promote the divine pills he had refined.

Alas, even the best wine needs advertising!

Although divine pills are valuable, a single seventh-tier divine pill costs 100,000 merits, an eighth-tier divine pill costs 200,000 merits, and a ninth-tier divine pill costs 500,000 merits!

You can get rich just by refining one batch of Zhouyi!

However, the question is, where does merit come from?

There aren't actually many ways to gain merit in the Three Realms!

There are roughly five kinds of merits: the basic merits of holding a position as a celestial official in the Heavenly Court, the merits of eliminating demons by slaying those with heavy karma, the merits of educating and enlightening sentient beings, the merits of universally saving sentient beings with good karma, and the merits of saving the world by helping it advance and preventing its destruction.

Those who hold positions in the Heavenly Court actually only possess the basic merits of their celestial official positions and the merits of exorcising demons!

The rest are things that saints and cultivators of the Three Realms can do!

After all, they can't just descend to the mortal realm at will, and there's no one to teach them unless they become Great Immortals who occasionally descend to preach to their disciples and grand-disciples.

As for helping the world advance and performing acts of salvation, well...

Even sages wouldn't dare to imagine this!

That is why the merits of the gods in the Three Realms are actually not much. Even a great immortal like Nezha would be considered very good if he could accumulate one or two million merits!

And you can't just squander the merits you've worked so hard to accumulate!

It needs to be used where it's most needed.

They wouldn't be willing to use merit points to buy something like divine pills unless it was top-grade; they would prefer to use innate divine crystals, incense, or divine materials from heaven and earth.

That is why Zhou Yi came into contact with many Great Luo Golden Immortals and Taiyi Golden Immortals!

However, although some divine pills were sold, not much merit was gained!

To date, all the merits Zhou Yi has accumulated amounted to only 1.55 million!

Then, Zhou Yi discovered that the products weren't selling, which he couldn't accept. What he wanted was merit, not other random rare and precious materials!

Therefore, the important thing is to promote our products and attract more people to buy the elixirs.

"Since the Celestial Lord has arrived, why not come up and sit down? What is the point of staying below?"

At this moment, the Bodhi Taoist, sitting on the highest futon, smiled slightly and waved his hand casually!

Zhou Yi was shocked to feel himself flying upwards uncontrollably. Whoosh... A golden light appeared out of thin air in the empty space where Zhou Yi was about to land, and a futon suddenly appeared!

"Pangu's Azure Lotus pays homage to the Sage, may the Sage enjoy eternal bliss!"

Zhou Yi immediately paid his respects!

He didn't want to end up like the Three Immortals, killed for disrespecting the sage.

However, upon Zhou Yi's visit, Bodhi Daoist shook his head, smiled slightly, and said, "No, no, young friend, you are mistaken. I am Bodhi Daoist, not a sage!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi was completely bewildered!

"Bodhi Daoist?"

Isn't he either an incarnation of a saint or a benevolent being? Is there a difference? Could it be that Bodhi is someone else entirely?
