Looking at the vast expanse of white all around, Wutian felt a little curious, as he could only sense the presence of Li Daoyi here.

"Fellow Daoist, where is this place?" Wutian asked.

"The Mental Time Chamber".

Li Daoyi then explained the function of the Time Chamber. Wutian was surprised but did not ask too many questions. Although he still had an independent consciousness, he trusted or was loyal to Li Daoyi completely.

At this moment, Li Daoyi waved his hand, and a mirror appeared in front of him. Many scenes began to appear in the mirror, including Tongtian and Nuwa appearing in the Tower of All Heavens, Yin Shou's ascension to the throne, and events that happened in Chaoge, etc.

"It's...it's actually..." Wu Tian looked at Li Daoyi with disbelief.

“That’s right, as you can see, I am currently in the Investiture of the Gods period, and the Investiture of the Gods is about to begin.” Li Daoyi nodded.

Wu Tian was completely stunned. He knew that Li Daoyi was mysterious and had the ability to travel to other worlds, but he never expected that the other party could actually transcend time and space.

But Wutian was Wutian after all. He quickly calmed down and began to think. Li Daoyi's resurrection of him in this world must not be so simple. Then Wutian's eyes lit up, and he thought of something.

“Buddhism, fellow Daoist, this is Buddhism... Western religion, yes, Western religion, there is no Buddhism yet,” Wutian said.

“That’s right, there is no Buddhism yet, only the Western religion,” Li Daoyi nodded.

“Master, you should know why I resurrected you, right?” Li Daoyi continued.

"Amitabha." Wutian immediately became solemn and dignified, and put his hands together in prayer.

"How can this humble monk stand idly by while all living beings suffer?"

"Very well, fellow Daoist, you are merciful." Li Daoyi nodded in satisfaction. Masters don't need to say much; a single glance is enough for them to understand each other.

Wutian naturally understood why Li Daoyi was here. The other party intended to manipulate the Investiture of the Gods, because he had already sensed Jianglong's aura. As fellow Buddhists, and both summoned by Li Daoyi, he naturally sensed Jianglong's presence. Wutian also knew that Jianglong had joined the Chan Sect.

"Fellow Daoist, tell me, should I join the Western Sect directly or..." Wutian asked.

Li Daoyi pondered for a moment. Initially, he did intend to have Wutian go to the Western Sect to carry out a double agent operation, just like Jianglong. However, now that the white-robed Wutian has actually appeared, he knows that this plan will not work. If it were a Golden Immortal Wutian or a Great Luo Wutian, then there would be no problem. But a late-stage Quasi-Saint who suddenly appears would make anyone wary.

Jieyin and Zhunti are narrow-minded; how could they possibly fully trust Wutian? In that case, joining the Western Religion would be meaningless.

"Fellow Daoist, you may stay here for now. From today onward, you will continue to be your Wutian Buddha, and the Buddhist sect will also appear from this moment on." Li Daoyi appeared with narrowed eyes.

“Amitabha, that suits me perfectly.” Wutian nodded.

The two then began to study the matter further. Since Buddhism was to appear, it must not be the original Buddhism, but rather the Buddhism that Wutian and Li Daoyi envisioned.

After discussing for a long time, the two finally decided that before the great calamity began, Wutian would lie low. After the calamity began, Wutian would use his own methods to intercept the Western Sect. People who originally wanted to join the Western Sect, such as Randeng, Manjushri, Samantabhadra, and Cihang, would all be recruited into Wutian's Buddhist sect.

Although his cultivation level was inferior to that of the two saints, he possessed the same prophetic abilities as Li Daoyi and was familiar with the Investiture of the Gods plot. Wutian was confident that he could intercept the prize with a 90% certainty.

Then the two left the Time Chamber. Zhen Yuanzi and the others outside immediately sensed the unfamiliar aura besides Li Daoyi and couldn't help but look over.

When they sensed the quasi-saint aura emanating from Wutian, they were all astonished. It was such an unfamiliar aura, such unfamiliar laws, completely different from their own Xuanmen aura.

Who is this?

Zhen Yuanzi stepped forward and asked.

"This humble monk is Wutian. Greetings to you fellow Daoists," Wutian said, his hands clasped together.

"Well..."

"Are you a member of the Western Sect?" Kong Xuan frowned immediately. He was very familiar with the gesture of putting his hands together. Every time he met the two Western Saints, those two shameless bastards would do this gesture and always say that they had a connection with the Western Sect.

"The Western Religion?" Zhen Yuanzi and Kunpeng couldn't help but look at Li Daoyi upon hearing this.

“No, there’s no such person in the Western Religion.” Zhen Yuanzi quickly shook his head.

"Amitabha..."

“This humble monk is the master of Buddhism, not the Western religion,” Wutian said.

Just as he finished speaking, the sky trembled and a surge of merit suddenly descended.

"Seal..." Li Daoyi shouted hurriedly, and a surge of energy instantly enveloped the Zhutian Tower.

At this moment, a golden energy appeared in the sky, and the golden energy began to swirl around, as if searching for something.

"The power of merit..." the group murmured.

Wutian was also startled. When he uttered the words "Buddhism," he sensed that the heavenly merit was coming for him.

Several people swallowed hard, gazing longingly at the merit in the sky. Of course, this merit was invisible to mortals and those below the level of quasi-saints.

“Fellow Daoist…” Wutian looked at Li Daoyi. He naturally wanted this merit very much, but he also understood that once he absorbed it, he would inevitably be exposed.

Li Daoyi hesitated for a moment.

"Eeya?"

Just then, Mengmeng's voice appeared. The little guy suddenly appeared out of nowhere, jumped to the window, and looked up at the sky.

"come over."

Mengmeng stretched out her chubby little hand and grabbed at the sky.

The power of merit in the sky instantly flew towards the Tower of All Heavens.

In fact, all of this happened extremely quickly. In just a few breaths, the power of merit flew to the Tower of All Heavens and rapidly condensed into an energy ball the size of a football.

"Hehe..." The little guy reached out and hugged the ball of light, looking excited.

"Mengmeng," Li Daoyi called out.

The little guy turned his head and saw Wutian in white.

"Wow, Wutian's big bald head!" Mengmeng exclaimed with delight.

"Miss Mengmeng, we meet again." Wutian smiled and nodded.

"This thing is coming for you. Here, take it." Mengmeng looked at the merit orb in her hand, licked her lips, and then reluctantly handed the orb to Wutian.

Li Daoyi and the others immediately showed expressions of disbelief; Mengmeng was actually being so generous today.

Wu Tian blankly accepted the ball of light, and the power of merit instantly entered his body.

Li Daoyi quickly waved his hand and sent him into the Spiritual Time Chamber. Refining these merits would bring great benefits to Wutian.

Next, the group looked at Mengmeng again, making the little girl blush.

"You don't have a fever."

Li Daoyi reached out and touched the little guy's forehead.

"Hmph... I don't care about such a small amount of merit. If I want it, I can take it myself," Mengmeng said, pouting.

After saying that, the little girl made a face and then disappeared.

“This child…” Li Daoyi shook his head helplessly, but his heart was warm. He knew that Mengmeng was doing this because of Wutian. She regarded Wutian as one of her own, so naturally she would not take away what he deserved.

Meanwhile, in the Western world, Mount Sumeru.

Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other with surprise.

"How could this be?" Zhunti asked, looking puzzled.

Jieyin didn't speak, but instead reached out and began to calculate, but gradually his brows furrowed more and more.

After a long while, Jieyin released his grip.

"Senior brother," Zhunti said hurriedly.

“No, the secrets of heaven are being concealed.” Jieyin shook his head.

"Damn it, who is it? How could so much of the Western Sect's fortune be lost?" Zhunti roared.

"I'll go to Zixiao Palace right now." With that, Zhunti stood up.

"Wait a minute," Jieyin quickly stopped him.

"The teacher has already given instructions that he will not see any of us until the Investiture of the Gods is over."

“But this fortune,” Zhunti said.

Jieyin shook his head and looked eastward.

"Don't rush, this is probably a test from the teacher," Jieyin said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Zhunti showed an expression of sudden realization.

The two then bowed respectfully to the sky, seemingly to express their gratitude to Hongjun.

In the following days, Li Daoyi was worried that the two Western Saints would appear. After all, with the rise and fall of the Western Saints, Wutian's gain of merit would inevitably affect the Western Sect. However, the events that occurred puzzled him. The two Western Saints did not appear at all. Were these two idiots? Little did he know that the two had already imagined a scenario.

Leaving aside Li Daoyi's complaints about the two saints, the Tongtian Sect Leader was listening to his disciple's report.

"Oh? A five-hundred-year-old Grand Luo Golden Immortal, Senior Brother Yuanshi has actually taken on another disciple."

Tongtian was somewhat surprised. He knew Yuanshi very well. Unlike himself, Yuanshi taught indiscriminately, but only accepted disciples with good aptitude. This one named Jianglong had cultivated to the late stage of Daluo in just five hundred years, which was indeed extraordinary.

"Master, what do you think? Should we..." said the Taoist Duobao below.

When a sage accepts a disciple, especially a personal disciple, he is usually given gifts. This has always been the responsibility of him, the vice leader of the Jie Sect.

"Ignore him." Tongtian waved his hand. He was just a disciple, so what if he had good talent? It had nothing to do with him. Besides, he and the Chan Sect were bound to be on opposite sides in the future, so he didn't intend to respond. Moreover, didn't he understand Yuanshi's thoughts? This was just showing off.

"Disciple understands." Duobao nodded.

Then Tongtian seemed to realize something and spoke up.

"Get ready, you'll be coming with me to visit friends tomorrow. Oh, and bring plenty of magic fruit."

Upon hearing this, Duobao immediately pictured the adorable little guy in his mind. When he mentioned the Immortal Fruit and the old friend, it must be the one who had come to Biyou Palace some time ago.

"Yes, I'll go prepare right away," Duobao said, bowing, and then slowly withdrew.
