"It wasn't a hallucination?!" Master Jeevika was shocked. From the moment he had seen Nanako, he knew that she would definitely be able to attain enlightenment and would definitely be faster than he did because of her gifted talent. Among millions of people, there might not be one person who had the ability to attain enlightenment, and that kind of person would never be able to attain enlightenment. But those who had the talent for cognition were just waiting for an opportunity to attain enlightenment. However, since the process of attaining enlightenment was too mysterious and there were almost no rules to speak of, it was unknown when those talented few could obtain the chance to attain enlightenment. Master Jeevika assumed that Nanako should be able to attain enlightenment in a year or two after he informed her of the key to attaining enlightenment, but he didn't expect that Nanako could succeed after just two attempts. Suppressing his shock, he asked, "Miss, you said
Nanako didn't realize that Master Jeevika's Buddhist heart had already changed somewhat. She said seriously, "Perhaps you have a certain deviation in understanding the direction of enlightenment. Although both the purple abode and the Sea of Consciousness are described in Buddhist and Taoist texts, enlightenment is ultimately the realm of cultivators. The Buddhist thought is 'no self', while the Taoist thought is 'true self', which are fundamentally opposites. Therefore, using Buddhist theories to solve the problems of Taoism may itself be somewhat misguided or even misplaced." "If the Taoist thought is 'true self', perhaps it is about allowing the Sea of Consciousness to perceive the realm of 'true self' so that it can merge with my divine sense." "What... I..." Master Jeevika was stunned for a moment. After a while, he gasped in realization, "You have truly enlightened me! I have learned a lot!" "You're too kind, Master." Nanako said hastily, humbly, and respectfully, "I am ble
The blessing of the protective talisman involved the master personally chanting scriptures to imbue the talisman with so-called magical power. Of course, this magical power was not true magical power in the literal sense. It was more about the merits and good intentions associated with it. After Master Jeevika consecrated and blessed the amulet, he gave it back to Nanako and said, "Please keep this amulet. If you are interested, you can study more Buddhist teachings. With your talent, you will be able to understand many principles that modern people cannot comprehend." Nanako knew that Master Jeevika was very obsessed with studying Buddhism, so she nodded and promised, "Don't worry, I'll try to read more." Master Jeevika bowed slightly and thanked Nanako. Nanako bowed respectfully in return and said goodbye to Master Jeevika. Master Jeevika saw her to the door and opened the hall door himself. When the door was opened, several believers were already waiting on the stone st
Ashley shook her head. "She has her own destiny, and her cultivation is far superior to mine. I can't mentor her." Although Ashley had successfully attained enlightenment with Curtis's help, she herself was not a genius in cultivation. Compared to a genius like Nanako, who had attained most of the enlightenment on her own, she was naturally inferior. Therefore, in Ashley's opinion, the direction of Nanako's development after enlightenment should be guided by Charlie, not by herself. Besides, she knew that Charlie was on his way back. She felt that Charlie would be very excited if he knew the news of Nanako's enlightenment. This could be seen as a little surprise that she had prepared as a mother for her son. That morning, many believers came to the temple one by one. Among them were people arranged by Ashley, and there were also genuine believers who rushed to come after hearing the news. At noon, the news that Master Jeevika would be giving a lecture at Aurous Hill's Qi Te
Julien was so excited that he didn't sleep all night. He got up before dawn the next day, dressed smartly, and took a helicopter to Ottawa. He planned to fetch Queen Helena from Canada to New York. In the early morning, Helena boarded Julien's helicopter with the Healing Pill Charlie had given her. The reason Charlie felt comfortable letting Helena go to New York alone was because of the Rothschild family's unparalleled power and influence in the United States. This influence was sufficient to allow Helena to enter the country stealthily without any third party knowing about it. More importantly, Charlie was aware that Fleur was inherently suspicious and cautious. Being in New York herself, she would never dare to confront the Rothschild family directly. Moreover, in the process of sealing off New York, the Rothschild family had unexpectedly integrated high-tech AI, significantly enhancing their security capabilities. Given Fleur's nature, she would be far too wary to take an
The more confidently and gracefully Helena maintained her royal poise without a hint of subservience, the more Harrison admired her. As one of the wealthiest people in the world, Harrison knew that many would bow to money, and it was rare to find someone who could still hold themselves with such dignity in his presence. Because of this admiration, Harrison felt an added respect and, struggling to sit up straighter, spoke, "Y-Your M-Majesty, i-it is a-a great honor f-for the entire R-Rothschild family to have you a-as o-our guest." With a smile and a nod, Helena said, "I heard that you had some health issues, so I came to visit you. How are you feeling now?" Harrison lamented somewhat dejectedly, "T-The doctor said t-that I-I had some sign of s-stroke. F-For some time in the future, I-I may have to c-c-concentrate on r-r-rehabilitation. L-Later, I-I will g-gather all members of my family to a meeting t-to officially a-announce that Julien w-will become t-the next patriarch. Q-Qu
Helena pursed her lips, looked at Harrison, and then looked at Julien, pretending to be hesitant to speak. Despite his paralyzed body, Harrison was still as sly and smart as ever, so he looked at Julien and said, "Julien, clear the room. I want to talk to Her Majesty alone." Knowing that Harrison was trying to give him a boost, Julien immediately said, "Okay, Dad!" After that, he quickly asked the doctor to leave. Before leaving, he turned and said to Harrison, "Dad, you have all the time in the world. Please have a nice chat with Her Majesty. I'll ask everyone to keep a distance of 20 meters from the room. Please rest assured." Harrison nodded in satisfaction and flicked in the air at him twice, motioning for him to leave. Julien gleefully closed the door and promptly urged everyone to stay 20 meters away from the room, including himself. Seeing that the room was clear, Helena cut to the chase. As she looked at Harrison on the bed, she stated, "Mr. Harrison, the main reaso
Harrison scoffed when he heard Helena's suggestion. He snapped angrily, "I-I-I have the best medical team in the world, and t-they don't even dare say such a thing. W-Who do you think you are?!" Helena smirked and replied, "Your team can't cure you, but I can." With that, she took out the Healing Pill that Charlie had given her from her purse and said to Harrison, "This pill comes from the ancient and mysterious East. Once you take it, you'll be restored to your former self. To alleviate your concerns, I can let you take one-tenth of it for free before we discuss terms so that you can truly feel its effectiveness. After that, we can discuss the pricing." Harrison, without any hesitation, disdainfully replied, "I-I would never b-b-believe in such a r-ridiculous pill! T-T-This b-bullshit has no scientific ba-a-asis at all!" Helena sneered contemptuously, "If you believe in science so much, why are you afraid of the Qing Eliminating Society? Can they possibly be a match for your
