Some achieve enlightenment and ascend to the heavens in a flash.
Meanwhile, within the Southern Continent, the Buddhist Sect flourished.
Because the Southern Continent entered a golden age, Daoist Practitioners secluded themselves for cultivation, while the Buddhist Sect seized the opportunity to expand.
Devotees and incense offerings were beyond count, and various temples spread throughout the entire Southern Continent.
Even the incense offerings to the Great Sage Sect were somewhat suppressed, not quite as prosperous as the Buddhist Sect.
However, the Great Sage Sect remained peaceful, unbothered by these matters—they wholeheartedly protected anyone who sought refuge with them.
This made the burgeoning Buddhist Sect no threat to the Great Sage Sect.
Moreover, the Great Sage Sect never protected the wicked.
Hence, some malefactors turned to the Buddhist Sect instead.
