At this moment, Lu Yang's expression was incomparably grave.
‘It came from the Other Shore.’
But after carefully sensing the source of the immense power before him, he quickly sighed in relief.
‘No, it’s not the Other Shore, it’s the Vajra Realm!’
The difference between the two was vast. If it came from the Other Shore, it meant the World Honored One had personally acted, at the very least casting a glance his way, and his only option would be to sever the connection immediately. But if it came from the Vajra Realm?
That meant the World Honored One still held some reservations about the tribulations and hadn’t acted personally, instead sending the five Tathāgatas of the Vajra Realm to do his bidding. The former meant lying down and accepting it. The latter... might not be impossible to contest.
‘The Primordial Heavenly Demon and Martial Uncle Chongguang are crucial to my Other Shore Collapse Plan. Nothing can go wrong here. I’ll just have to brace myself and forge ahead.’
Even so, Lu Yang was not hasty. He did not recklessly enter the karmic scene, but instead sensed the changes in karma from the outside. To forge ahead wasn’t to rush in blindly; it required a slow, steady, and methodical advance.
