Wu Yu entrusted the Ruyi Jingu Bang to Xuanzang.
Next, he continued to cultivate, but Xuanzang came to find him after a mere few years, returning the Ruyi Jingu Bang to him.
"The sixth seal of the Ruyi Jingu Bang has been released."
Xuanzang said cheerfully. Soon he would be able to go to Sumeru World and rescue his two friends.
"Let's begin then."
Wu Yu knew that Xuanzang must have waited for this day for a long time. Since he had spent so much time studying the Ruyi Jingu Bang and opening the sixth seal, there was no need to dally further.
Xuanzang nodded and Wu Yu used the sixth Mystique of the Ruyi Jingu Bang from within Expanse of Nirvana.
Reunited with the Ruyi Jingu Bang, Wu Yu could feel that it was much stronger than before. There was a wondrous power flowing within that was definitely due to the sixth Mystique being unlocked.
The power could open the door to the Sumeru World from the two immortal domains.
Wu Yu first reacquainted himself with the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
There was a new innate power that had been unlocked, although Wu Yu still did not know what it was.
He did not think too much about it, but instead fired up the Sumeru Passage with his apotheosis immortal energy after a brief study!
A mystical white vortex appeared before him.
The other way of using it was to attack a foe with the power of the Sumeru World. It was a force even more formidable than Pillar of the Skies, and would make Wu Yu's fighting ability even stronger.
Of course, he could still feel that he was a ways away from the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's level.
The power of Sumeru World alone could not defeat someone of that level, but it did help bring him a step closer.
It gave him confidence that he was making progress towards his goal of taking revenge for the Demon Immortal Realm and the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.
Both Wu Yu and Xuanzang were quite emotional when the door to Sumeru World opened.
Wu Yu curiously headed towards Sumeru World. He saw that a strange world lay beyond.
"Wu Yu, Sumeru World's space is badly warped, where big and small things alternate in size in a bizarre rhythm. It is extremely difficult to remain there alive. You are at danger there."
Xuanzang said in a tense voice. "Remain outside and await me. Do not go in no matter what!"
Wu Yu nodded solemnly upon hearing this.
Peeking into Sumeru World, he saw that it was as Xuanzang had said.
Within Sumeru World, small things such as flies, mosquitoes and ants were all huge, the size of lesser realms.
Conversely, the whales, rocs, and other conventionally huge beings were as tiny as could be, little black specks that resembled tadpoles.
It was a bizarre and strange world, and Wu Yu could sense the danger.
It seemed impossible for him to survive there for now. He might be torn apart by those peculiar forces.......
Wu Yu obeyed Xuanzang and remained outside.
Xuanzang entered the white vortex.
Wu Yu saw that Xuanzang's figure constantly expanded and shrank, affected by the powers within.
Before long, his figure disappeared from Wu Yu's view. Clearly, Sumeru World was also a huge world, and there was more than what Wu Yu could see through the vortex.
Before long, the white vortex disappeared. Clearly he could only keep it open for a short while.
Wu Yu waited back at Expanse of Nirvana.
To immortal emperors, a year was like a day.
After perhaps 30 years, Wu Yu suddenly heard a voice. It was Xuanzang, who bid him open the door again.
Wu Yu did not hesitate, but activated the white vortex again with the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
Xuanzang returned from Sumeru World.
However, Xuanzang came back alone, and there was no sign of his two friends, Samantabhadra the Universal Worthy, and Manjusri the Gentle Glory. Xuanzang had a sad look on his face.
He sighed. "A tragedy. A tragedy indeed....... I was too late."
"Too late? Grandmaster, your friends are...?" Wu Yu paled.
Xuanzang's expression was mournful. "The two of them were badly hurt back then. After so many years of resisting Sumeru World, they have long passed. In Sumeru World, I searched long and hard, and finally could only bring their buddha worlds back."
Wu Yu was surprised to hear this.
"Does this mean it is very difficult to rebuild the Immortal Buddha World Core?"
Xuanzang shook his head. "Since they have already passed, I can only use their buddha worlds. Together with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the three bodhisattva's buddha worlds should be enough to restore the World Core. This must be the wish of Samantabhadra and Manjusri. They were noble indeed......"
Even Wu Yu felt a surge of respect for the two.
Such generous hearts were not commonly found.
As for Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, he was a traitor to Heavenly Buddha's Domain. It was fitting to use his buddha world!
