Golden List Live: I Really Can’t Hide Anymore!

Chapter 205: Universal Salvation Golden Light, Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva's Powerful Weapon!

After Bai Ze finished using the Pangu blood essence, his already powerful physical body gained another immense boost.

Previously, he ranked 19th on the list, but after using the Pangu blood essence, his physical strength would likely rise by several places. This was only part of the effect of the Pangu blood essence. The real key was the enhancement of his demon bloodline, which had now become incomparably pure.

What pleased Bai Ze even more was seeing the enraged expressions of the Wu Clan members in the livestream. This brought him great satisfaction.

However, with Houtu already achieving sainthood and obtaining a way to leave the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Wu Clan still posed a significant issue for the demon clan. Though Bai Ze's reward this time had its gains and losses, he personally felt quite content.

Bai Ze's reward was befitting of his ranking. The Pangu blood essence was something many envied, but it also raised expectations for the rewards of the upcoming strong contenders.

[Chiyou: Bai Ze got the Pangu blood essence. After using it, his bloodline and physical body will strengthen further, greatly boosting his power and potential. How lucky for him!]

[Taiyi Zhenren: No need to be upset. Although it's a great reward, you're still on the Body List. When it's your turn, your reward might suit you perfectly too!]

[Chiyou: I doubt it. My ranking is far behind. I just don't get it. My Wu Clan's bloodline is clearly stronger than the demon clan's, yet Bai Ze's physical body surpasses mine. I refuse to believe he's stronger!]

[Lu Ya: What is your Wu Clan anyway? You dare compare yourselves to the demon clan? Among us, you'd only be considered the lowest of the low!]

[Erlang Shen: Enough with the arguing. The next reward is coming up!]

The barrage of messages in the livestream quieted down when the reward appeared, and everyone eagerly awaited the next ranking and its reward.

[20th Place on the Body List Reward: Universal Salvation Golden Light]

[This divine power can redeem all ghosts and spirits. When cultivated to a high level, even quasi-saints can be redeemed. Only those with great vows may cultivate it.]

[Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva: This divine power suits me perfectly. In the Underworld, this is exactly what I've been lacking. It seems the Body List truly sees everything. Mastering this divine power will certainly save me a lot of time!]

[Tathagata: Another top-tier divine power, and one that is particularly fitting for our Buddhist sect! It seems Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva has acquired a powerful weapon for himself this time!]

[Bull Demon King: Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva made a great vow in Hell, determined to cleanse the eighteen layers of hell. With this top-tier divine power, it's like adding wings to a tiger!]

[Taiyi Zhenren: Even with Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva's strength, dealing with powerful souls in the Underworld is no easy task. This divine power is crucial for him, especially since it can even redeem quasi-saints!]

[Lu Ya: However, this divine power benefits the Buddhist sect but isn't necessarily friendly to other factions. Buddhism gains strength by redeeming others, and now with this added power, their influence will surely grow again!]

[Kong Xuan: I trust Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva will use the Universal Salvation Golden Light wisely. You all can rest easy.]

[Sun Wukong: That's right. Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva is different from Tathagata. If Tathagata had received this divine power, the Three Realms would have been thrown into chaos, and Buddhism's power would have grown wildly. But I've met Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva, and I know he would never do such things. He and Tathagata walk very different paths!]

[Samantabhadra Bodhisattva: Sun Wukong, you're being disrespectful again! Wasn't trapping you under Five Elements Mountain enough? Now you're slandering the Tathagata once more!]

[Sun Wukong: I'm just telling the truth, and I'm sure others know it too!]

[Tathagata: I know you've always held a grudge against me, but slandering me like this won't do you any good. If you don't want to be trapped under my hand again, you'd best learn to keep quiet.]

[Sun Wukong: You bald donkey! You dare threaten me? What can you do? Trap me again? Go ahead and try! Just wait until I get out—I'll tear down your Thunderclap Monastery in the Western Heaven!]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: Such insolence!]

[Sun Wukong: You can't reach me here in the livestream, can you? If you have the guts, come find me yourself!]

Sun Wukong had been trapped under Five Elements Mountain for over a hundred years, and during this long time, no one had spoken to him. Being naturally restless, he couldn't endure the loneliness. Now, with a chance to chat with others in the livestream, of course, he wouldn't pass it up. Even if it meant worsening his relationship with Guanyin and Tathagata, it didn't bother him; it was just another addition to his existing grievances.

For him, even if Guanyin came to Five Elements Mountain, it would be an opportunity to have a conversation, so he wasn't afraid of angering her.

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: No need to rush. I'll come for you when the time is right.]

[Sun Wukong: You're always being cryptic, plotting against me. But I'm destined to oppose Buddhism, so let's see what you can do to me!]

[Lu Ya: While Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva gaining this top-tier divine power is great for him, it won't significantly enhance Buddhism's strength. After all, his situation is similar to Houtu's back then. He's bound to the Underworld, and even with this divine power, he won't be able to leave anytime soon.]

[Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva: Cleansing Hell is no small task. Even with this divine power, I can't clear it all at once. You don't need to worry. For those who don't wish to join Buddhism, I won't forcibly redeem them—except for truly evil souls, of course.]

[Ancestor Minghe: Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva speaks the truth. Among the Buddhist sect, I respect him the most. Compared to the two saints of the West, he is far more genuine! I trust he'll do as he says.]

Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva extracted the Universal Salvation Golden Light divine power and spent some time comprehending it. Given that it was a Buddhist divine power and perfectly suited to him, there were no obstacles during his cultivation.

Once he achieved initial mastery, he went to the first layer of Hell to test its power. When he activated the divine power, golden light radiated from behind him, and sacred chants echoed through the air. The soft golden light spread forward, and as it touched the ghosts in Hell, they were immediately calmed. Their eyes cleared, and they obediently stood behind Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva.
