Chapter 5155
Peace has finally been restored; I can finally get a good night's sleep...
Just as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was about to sink into a deep sleep, Baili Yuan rode on Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's neck.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva: "...?"
"Don't sleep!"
Baili Yuan patted the face of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue.
The Bodhisattva was not asleep either.
"What is it, exorcist?" Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva asked Baili Yuan helplessly.
"Shouldn't you explain your origins? And what about the Yama Monster? By the way, do you know anything about the Gua Empire?"
"Alright, alright, I know what you're going to ask. I'll tell you my story..."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva then began to tell his own story.
In fact, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is not a real Buddha, nor is he a cosmic being, but a deified being native to Earth.
Edo period.
The Yama-like monster Enmago descends upon Earth, seeking to conquer the planet.
The people of that era did not have the concept of monsters or aliens; they called Enmago "demons." Because Enmago's appearance resembled that of the legendary Yama, they named him "Yama."
To combat Enmago, the villagers sought out a high-ranking Buddhist monk, an ancient exorcist.
A high-ranking Buddhist monk: This time, a big deal has come!
Logically speaking, Enmago's height alone puts him beyond the capabilities of most exorcists.
However, the high-ranking Buddhist monk still accepted the commission, not for the sake of saving all sentient beings, but because Enmago's next stop was the monk's home.
If it weren't for the proximity, the villagers wouldn't have gone to a place thousands of miles away to ask for help, would they?
Fortunately, the temple where the high monk lived was indeed quite powerful, and the high monk himself was also a powerful exorcist.
Thus, under the guidance of the high monk, a demon-sealing stone enshrined in the temple was carved into the image of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to deal with Enmago.
The Demon-Sealing Stone was originally a meteorite that fell from outer space. After being enshrined in a temple, it became imbued with the power of vows and the fragrance of incense.
After being sculpted into the image of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, eminent monks and the public imbued it with their "prayer."
Thus, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was born.
These deified beings, born from the power of will, are often influenced by the "wishes" that are infused into them, and thus possess different abilities.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was sculpted to suppress Yama, the King of Hell.
Therefore, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva possesses abilities such as sealing, exorcising demons, and rebirth, which are perfect for restraining monsters like Enmago, which are vengeful spirits.
The reason for choosing to carve it in the shape of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is that a high-ranking monk said that only Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva can suppress Yama, the King of Hell, in hell.
At least that's how the myths told by the eminent monks go.
In the end, the high monk chanted scriptures, which activated the stone statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and successfully suppressed and sealed Enmago.
High-ranking monks are true practitioners, not charlatans; they can genuinely use magic and similar techniques.
Although Earthlings may seem like ordinary people, there are actually some special powers on this planet that are inaccessible to ordinary people.
In other words, nothing in the Ultraman universe is absolutely ordinary. Even a seemingly ordinary stone may one day mutate into a stone monster.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva suppressed Enmago for a long time. At first, many people worshipped him, but as time went by and temples disappeared, the number of people worshipping him gradually decreased.
The story of Yama, the King of Hell, became a legend after the last person who worshipped him died.
Then, an earthquake buried him in the mountains, and he never saw the light of day again.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva didn't mind at all; on the contrary, he felt that peaceful days were better, and he could sleep comfortably. However, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not become weaker due to the lack of worship; on the contrary, he became stronger and stronger because he had been suppressing Enmago, and in a sense, he had been fulfilling his "duty," absorbing external power to grow.
If it weren't for the birth of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who is a positive character, he would have had the potential to mutate into a monster.
During the suppression of Enmago, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva constantly tried to diminish Enmago's resentment, hoping to completely eliminate him.
Although he did not succeed, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva "cultivated" many special abilities, such as entering dreams.
Through his ability to enter dreams, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva entered Enmago's dream and learned about Enmago's past.
They naturally also learned of the existence of the Gua Empire.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva did not hide anything and directly told Baili Yuan all the information about the Gua Empire.
After learning about the information about the Gua Empire that he had obtained from Enmago, Baili Yuan actually breathed a sigh of relief.
Because things aren't as serious as Taro described.
The Gua Empire is a power centered around the planet Gua. Gua is a primordial demon born from the original darkness created by the distortion of the universe.
The earliest record appears 400 million years ago, 3 million years before the birth of the Land of Light.
It is a cosmic-level demon even older than the Ultra race.
As a result, Gua encountered the Andro Super Warriors, who used the combined power of the three great artifacts of the universe to defeat him and cut him into three parts, which then split him into the three Juda siblings.
The eldest brother, Mold, is the Supreme Commander of the Empire.
The second sister, Gina, is the legion commander.
The third brother is Zhou Da, the legion commander.
These three siblings all inherited some of Gua's power, as well as the characteristics of a demon—immortality!
Their power also originates from the dark forces generated by the distortion of the universe.
For the Gua Empire to truly return, all three siblings must be resurrected and ultimately merge into the undead Gua.
The resurrection of each of the three siblings individually would only allow them to mobilize some of their own generals and utilize their own abilities.
Enmago was a general under Juda back then.
Fifty thousand years ago, he followed Juda in attacking the Land of Light. After Juda was defeated by Father of Ultra, he was seriously injured and fled into space, eventually ending up on Earth.
He wanted to conquer Earth and cultivate his own army of Yama, but because he consumed too much power and underestimated the humans, he was eventually sealed away.
Because the three siblings did not die together, and their resurrection times differed, according to the calculations of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, only one of the three siblings should have been resurrected.
This time, it should be Juda who is resurrected only once every 50,000 years.
Baili Yuan also confirmed this with Enmago through the cross-travel combat device.
Enmago, whose soul was imprisoned, was disobedient, but Baili Yuan could forcibly control him, thanks to the power he obtained from the Ultimate Fighting Device.
If they really don't listen, then keep hitting them with electricity!
……
After learning about the situation, Baili Yuan stopped harassing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. The villagers also learned about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's sealing of the monster and began to worship him again.
The wealthy landowner who had been blasting the mountain dared not continue blasting it. Instead, he decided to build a huge temple for Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to worship him.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva can finally get some sleep.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was also very kind. Because Baili Yuan helped defeat Enmago, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva taught Baili Yuan some of his abilities. As for whether Baili Yuan could learn them, that was not Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's concern.
Anyway, the payment has already been made.
That's right, this is outsourcing in the exorcism industry. (End of Chapter)
