Jin Chanzi sat on the Golden Lotus, murmuring to himself: "To fabricate such a tale that I would establish the Eastern Earth Buddhism—simply absurd. Who exactly is trying to harm me? Anan, Kasyapa, or other Buddha Bodhisattvas within Buddhism?
No, I must seek an explanation from my master; I absolutely harbor no intention of rebellion."
Immediately, Jin Chanzi rose from the Golden Lotus and dashed outside; the end of the Westward Journey should have been my time to soar, yet my Dao Fruit seems to have vanished, and rumors spread that I plan to establish a new foothold in the East. Who is plotting against me in the shadows? Infuriating!
...
In a mysterious space, more than ten Buddhas sat solemnly.
The space rippled as two figures emerged from the waves, the Namo Merit Buddha and the Southern Buddha of the Unbreakable Precepts himself.
The Namo Vajra Unbreakable Buddha, seated in the void, promptly asked: "Did you find out? When will the Eastern Buddha return to his position?"
