The person was none other than the tool spirit of Persephoneâs Folly Bridge-Shelly.
The old monkâs eyes widened suddenly as he looked at the lolita in red before him. He immediately
jumped up and stuttered, âGreat⦠F-Fairy Shelly?â
âUh-oh!â
Alex glanced twice at the lolita, Shelly, and thought, âWhich part of hers is great?â
But then, he suddenly realized that those two people knew each other.
Shelly flaunted her seniority as she said, âLittle Revealer, heâs someone chosen by Ksitigarbha. Even I
have to follow him, so why arenât you taking out the scripture? Could it be that youâve forgotten your
identity and donât consider yourself a member of the Siddhartha realm after living in this small, ruined
temple for a long time? Do you not care about Ksitigarbha anymore?â
Revealer Maha respectfully bowed to Shelly. âMaha dares not forget that.â
Shelly spoke with Revealer Maha telepathically. âJust give it to him then. Time is running out. Once the
hope of the Siddhartha realm extinguishes completely, everything will come to nothing. Even Dairaionji
Temple will be affected by then, let alone this small temple of yours. It would be impossible even if you
want to return in one piece.â
âSo, you areâ¦â
âIâm his guardian.â
Maha was slightly uncertain as he asked, âFairy, I can tell that heâs fated with the Buddha, but his six
roots of perception are impure, and heâs full of tribulations of love affairs. How could Ksitigarbha choose
such a person? Wouldnât he taint Buddhism then? After all, Tantric Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, and the
Land of Bliss have almost become a mess of love affairs. If he really goes up there, Iâm afraid that
Siddhartha realm will be turned upside down and become a paradise of pleasure.â
Shelly suddenly grew big, turning into a stunning beauty.
Alex was stunned by this. Shelly had really turned into the great Shelly.
What was even more outrageous was that Shelly later really knocked on Revealer Mahaâs golden
head, bruising his head.
The two of them whispered to each other, but Alex and the Mystic Maiden could not hear them.
âYou blockhead, no wonder youâre still a little Revealer after so many years. Do you think itâs your call
on this matter? Whether heâs a Buddha or a scumbag, nothing else matters as long as he can continue
the bloodline. Moreover, thousands of incarnations are no match for a Buddha, so why do you care
how many women he has?â
To the old monk, Shellyâs words were equivalent to insightful words, enlightening the old monk at once.
Then, he quickly took out the scripture and handed it over to Alex.
Alex looked at Shelly and asked her via telepathy, âWhy did you say to him?â
Shelly said, âI reasoned with him, and he finally figured it out. In fact, this scripture is the entry ticket to
Dairaionji Temple. You canât even find the door without the scripture.â
Afterward, Alex raised many questions about this world. Revealer Maha answered all of them.
Shoraionji Temple was not the only one. In fact, there was a Shoraionji Temple in each realm of the
thirty three celestial demon realms under Dairaionji Templeâs suppression. They were equivalent to the
suppression nodes. However, the dreadful devil suppressed in the Underworld was too powerful as that
was a big shot from River Styx. After countless years, the suppression nodes of Shoraionji Temple
slowly wore out, and even Revealer Mahaâs combat power kept declining. As a result, he almost could
not hold off an outsider Immortal Monarch of the Olympus Tribe.
âThis is because the Buddha realm has been broken, hope is dim, and faith is missing, so I have no
energy to supplement you,â Shelly revealed the root cause as she sighed. âNot only is the suppression
at your side here weakening, but the other deities in charge of the suppression are probably having a
hard time too. So the reopening of the gate of Buddhism is imminent.â
The old monk felt distressed as soon as he thought about those great demons running out.
He looked at Alex and determinedly said, âThere is indeed an opportunity in my Shoraionji Temple
other than this scripture.â
When he said that, Alex and the Mystic Maiden became excited.
âWhat kind of opportunity?â
Seemingly reluctant, the old monk said, âFollow me, you guys.â
He ambled along. While walking, he shook his head as if this would allow him to hold onto that so-
called opportunity for a little longer.
The interior space of the ruined temple was enormous. Alex and the Mystic Maiden were in the frame
of mind to check it carefully because they were busy fighting earlier. Only then did they feel that it was
far more magnificent than what they could see. After walking past the roundabout paths, they
unexpectedly saw mountains and waters with heavy fog and immortal birds and spiritual beasts leaping
and dancing in the air at the back.
It was just like a secret realm.
Finally, the old monk stopped in his tracks. A dozen meter tall golden Buddha statue was ahead, and
he looked exactly the same as the old monk, radiating golden light and looking dignified. He closed his
eyes with a faint smile upon his face.
