Chapter 1579: Chapter Fifty: Southern Mountain Sect Chapter 1579: Chapter Fifty: Southern Mountain Sect “It’s not that Buddha’s Country is stingy, it’s just that some errors cannot be acknowledged.”

Tang Luo, who was leading Yun Xiu at high speed, replied via telepathy: “In this incident, the Brahma Voice Prajna cannot be halted due to mistakes; even if Great Zen Master Jingcheng admits it, the Jing Tai Sect will send envoys to summon us.”

“The name Luo Chen can only deceive Great Zen Master Jingcheng, who is dedicated to cultivation and pays no heed to worldly affairs. Should an envoy from the Pure Land Sect come across us, they would uncover our identities before we even meet.”

“By then, our plan will be ruined, and it would not be worth it!”

Aside from what he said to Yun Xiu, there were naturally deeper concerns.

For instance, Yankong once called him a Buddha enemy, a Heavenly Demon.

Such defamation might no longer be influential in other continents, but there will certainly be countless devotees in Buddha’s Country.

Who would have thought that Yankong was the Supreme Noble Bodhisattva of Buddha’s Country, despite the fact that busybodies from the Outer Continent have diminished the reputation of the previous generation’s Four Little Saints to nothing?

However, the leading young figure of the “Aspect” Sect, the Zen Master who established the Path of No Suffering and Extinction, only had an influence that was much larger than before.

This was also why he assumed the name Luo Chen upon entering Buddha’s Country, as this trip was only meant for borrowing Foundation Building techniques and enjoying his honeymoon.

Some troubles are truly unwanted, and of course, the further from Pure Land City, the better.

Wary of Great Zen Master Jingcheng’s divine hearing, Tang Luo took Yun Xiu through the rainforest where the Pure Land Sect was located, and only slowed down after crossing a wide river over ten zhang.

The rainforest of Buddha’s Country was truly an earthly paradise, with wonders every few hundred miles apart. Not just the vegetation and fruits, but even the insects and beasts scurrying in the forest were starkly different.

As someone who suffered from obsessive cleanliness, Tang Luo couldn’t stand a moment in such jungles. He had planned to disregard this rainforest but, unfortunately, he spotted a young boy trapped in a mire, with black locusts fluttering down from the trees, tightly attached to the boy’s exposed face and neck.

The large black insects fully extended their mouthparts, biting and tearing at the flesh. The desperate boy wailed, trying to pull the insects off his face, but no matter how much he scratched, the bugs clung on like flesh-burrowing maggots, only resulting in more blood flowing from his cheeks, to no avail.

Oh, it wasn’t entirely futile; amidst his violent struggle, he sank faster into the mire, now the sludge was covering his shoulders.

“I’m going to die…”

Just as this thought of despair crossed Ah Lan’s mind, he felt a tremendous force pulling him from the mudpit.

After a dizzying sensation of weightlessness, he realized he was being held in mid-air.

This unknown was even more terrifying than sinking into the mire; he wanted to struggle, but then he heard a gentle female voice.

“Don’t move yet, I’ll get the bloodsuckers off you.”

When the darkness and the crimson subsided, the boy squinted through swollen lids to see a fairy.

“Hey, hey, kid!”

The uncomfortable Tang Luo said unpleasantly to the boy: “I just saved your life, and you’re staring straight at my wife; believe it or not, I’ll throw you back into the mire right now!”

Hearing the voice, the boy turned to look at Tang Luo and babbled a long string of words, none of which were understandable.

Yun Xiu smiled with narrowed eyes, then turned to Tang Luo and said, “He says his name is Ah Lan and he thanks you for saving him. He would like to invite us to his home.”

“You understand Sanskrit?”

More than the gratitude of the boy, Tang Luo was surprised by Yun Xiu’s erudition.

“Buddha Country Pure Land is rich in products, and merchants flock here for business. Learning Sanskrit is basic.”

Yun Xiu said with a tender rebuke: “Besides, it’s not difficult. If my lord wishes to learn, I can teach you.”

“No need, no need, as long as you know it.”

Tang Luo waved his hand: “Tell the boy, we’ll pass on the invitation. He should watch his step; there are many patches of quicksand in this forest, and if he falls in again, there may not be anyone to save him.”

Yun Xiu nodded and murmured a few words to the boy.

Then the conversation between the two became somewhat animated, of course, it was only on the boy’s part.

Ah Lan was reluctant to part with the fairy and the celestial being before him. If there ever was a likeness of the Buddha Son in this world, it would surely look like these two.

He wanted to take them back to the city with him so that the people of Jianmu would see what divine figures truly looked like.

However, not every appeal can be answered. After placing him on the edge of the mire, the fairy and the celestial being took off into the wind.

Ah Lan watched their departing figures with profound regret.

…

Traveling through this rainforest, even flying above, posed a serious problem.

That is losing one’s direction, especially when surrounded by green and lush trees, the dense vegetation covering the mountains makes it difficult to discern one’s bearings. Even though Tang Luo had imprinted the map of Buddha Country Pure Land in his Sea of Consciousness, it was sometimes hard to determine the correct way, requiring him to climb to a great height for a distant view.

Therefore, most of the time, Yun Xiu was picking herbs, while Tang Luo adjusted their course constantly.

Although Pure Land is said to have 84,000 cities and countless monk villages, scattered across the vast rainforest, it still seemed sparse and scattered.

Three hundred miles from Pure Land City, not another large city was seen, just miniature villages, with a population no more than a hundred households upon examining their buildings.

As they crossed dozens of miles of rainforest and stood on a low mountain, the fog barrier suddenly dissipated, offering a clear view.

A magnificent city rose up before their eyes, with exquisite pagodas piercing the heavens and countless levels of stupa.

Looking at the gilded giant plaque on the city wall, Tang Luo felt an inexplicable excitement, pointing to the distance and saying: “Look, my lady, we’ve arrived!”
