As for Fang Jian and Black Python Immortal, they had already returned to the Haotian World from the Demon Realm.

Ten days later, in a desolate mountain wilderness, the Black Python Immortal came to the campfire carrying a skinned green deer.

He first put the green deer down, then used a knife to cut off pieces of venison and roasted them on the fire.

Fang Jian took out two jars of immortal wine, threw one at the Black Python Immortal, and said, "This one doesn't have realgar in it. It's for you."

The Black Python Immortal said, "I heard that the Great Sima Huanwei of the Tianshu Bureau of the Western Haotian Realm has officially led 50,000 heavenly soldiers into the Demon Realm. It is said that they are going to thoroughly search and eliminate the evil gods hiding in the Demon Realm."

"Yeah." Fang Jian nodded and said, "I didn't expect you to still be paying attention to these things?"

The Black Python Immortal sighed and said, "I have to pay attention. I didn't think much of it before, but now I feel that this evil god's affairs are truly closely related to every cultivator in our Three Realms. Before I experienced this, I only had a vague concept of the Heavenly Court, the ruler of the Three Realms. But this time, I realized that if there was no Heavenly Court, those evil gods would be even more rampant. I'm afraid I would have been sacrificed by the evil gods in the Haotian World long ago."

Fang Jian laughed heartily upon hearing this and said, "It's rare that you can grasp this point. However, your previous actions were also considered serious sins by the Heavenly Court."

As the Black Python Immortal grilled the meat, he said, "It's not too late to repent now, before the Heavenly Court discovers my sins."

"Hmm." Fang Jian couldn't help but give him a thumbs-up upon hearing this, saying, "It seems you've gained a lot of enlightenment after experiencing the calamity in Giant Tomb City."

The Black Python Immortal said, "There is just one thing I haven't realized yet."

"What?" Fang Jian asked.

The Black Python Immortal said, "Who are you if you haven't attained enlightenment yet? Why are you so powerful and mysterious?"

Fang Jian looked puzzled and asked, "Huh? Am I really that powerful?"

"Stop pretending." The Black Python Immortal said with disdain, "Even stray dogs on the side of the road can tell that you're something special, let alone a demon immortal like me."

Fang Jian laughed and said, "That's a bit exaggerated. A stray dog ​​can't have as good eyesight as you."

Just as Fang Jian was chatting with the Black Python Immortal, a loud and clear voice suddenly rang out from between heaven and earth.

"I am Zizaitian, one of the twenty deities of Buddhism. I now make a great vow to establish the Zizaitian Monastery on Mount Taihua in the Yanluo Continent of the Haotian Great World. I vow to save the suffering beings of the world, to avert the calamities of all living beings, and to lead them out of the sea of ​​suffering. I, Zizaitian, do not aspire to become a Buddha, but only to bring great freedom to all living beings. Anyone who believes in my Buddhist sect, anyone who believes in my Zizaitian Dharma, may enter my Zen sect and become a Dharma follower. Namo Amitabha."

The voice of the Bodhisattva of Freedom spread throughout the Yanluo Continent, and Fang Jian and the Black Python Immortal could also hear it clearly.

The Black Python Immortal was shocked by the magical power of Zizaitian, but Fang Jian was surprised by the great vow of Zizaitian Bodhisattva. The fact that Zizaitian Bodhisattva made this great vow meant that he had no intention of becoming a Buddha.

A Buddhist Bodhisattva vows to "become a Buddha without intending to do so." This vow can be said to be very heavy, and is not much different from "not becoming a Buddha until hell is empty."
