[To the public, you declared that you would use Buddhist teachings to enlighten the Archeron Emperor, guiding him back from his misguided path.]
[Your true intention, however, was to brainwash this hero of the Xianzhou. You wanted to see if you could influence the fate of this Arbiter-General of the Hunt—and whether laying groundwork before his ascension would allow you to continue manipulating him even after he became an Aeon.]
(PS)
[Thus, your daily routine gained a new task: spending four to five hours reciting Buddhist scriptures to a grown man, attempting to brainwash him.]
[Reciting sutras to a grown man every day was, as anyone could imagine, mind-numbingly tedious.]
[To alleviate the boredom—and to cleanse your eyes—you ordered beautiful women to be presented to you.]
[Of course, as both a divine emissary and an enlightened monk, you needed a pious justification for such debauchery.]
[Soon, word spread across all Xianzhou ships: "The Divine Envoy seeks celestial maidens to serve Yaoshi in the Eternal Paradise of Abundance. These maidens must cultivate a special form of Buddhist practice under his guidance."]
[The explanation was flimsy, like a thinly veiled excuse crafted by someone with ulterior motives.]
[But when those words came from a living Buddha—one whose sermons were accompanied by miracles like lotus blossoms sprouting from his mouth, golden lotuses emerging from the earth, and heavenly flowers raining from the sky—their credibility skyrocketed.]
[Nobles and devout followers alike rushed to offer their daughters. Some, fearing rejection, even bribed high-ranking members of your order with gold and jewels.]
[Some overzealous female devotees—divorcees or widows—even tried to sneak into the selection.]
[You accepted any beauty who met your standards.]
[Soon, you amassed tens of thousands of women—lolis, maidens, mature beauties, tsunderes, soft-spoken girls, ice queens, energetic types… you name it.]
[You dressed them in translucent gauze so thin it resembled mist. The fabric teased their curves, hinting at what lay beneath yet never fully revealing, making them even more alluring.]
[The gauze was not just thin but scant, barely covering their most sensitive areas. Adorned with gold ornaments and gemstones, the "celestial maidens" chimed with every graceful step, their jewelry tinkling like wind chimes.]
[Your days now consisted of brainwashing the Archeron Emperor with sutras and "cultivating Buddhist practices" in your palace of celestial maidens.]
[Your chosen method was the Dual Bliss Tantra, which required the maidens' "assistance."]
[Sometimes you tempered your Vajra Pestle, other times you emulated Yaoshi's Thousand-Handed Cloud-Caressing technique.]
[During these sessions, the maidens sang in ecstasy, proclaiming the supreme joy of practicing the Dharma with you.]
[Others danced, their gauze fluttering like golden mist, their ornaments chiming in harmony with their songs—a symphony of pleasure.]
[Blessed by Yaoshi with unparalleled Abundance energy and fortified by your "Indestructible Golden Body," your physique rivaled that of a minor Aeon.]
[Normally, you contained this immense power within yourself, maintaining a flawless vessel.]
[But the Dual Bliss Tantra required the union of opposites. The mere aura of your Abundance energy intoxicated the maidens, reducing them to willing worshippers at your feet.]
[A single drop of your Abundance crystallized essence could send them into rapturous bliss while enhancing their bodies.]
Huo Ran (Solon) looked weirded out. This is just a Honkai: Star Rail version of Tang Sanzang!
Well, only physically.
Thank goodness the foxians haven't joined the Xianzhou yet—otherwise, I'd truly understand King Zhou, become King Zhou, and then surpass King Zhou.
[One day, to emulate Yaoshi seated upon a lotus throne, you positioned your Vajra Pestle at the center of a mechanical lotus platform. Twelve carefully selected maidens knelt on the rotating petals around you.]
[As the platform turned, each maiden came before you in sequence. Under your guidance, they began chanting sutras in fervent devotion.]
[Soon, the first maiden grasped the profundity of the Dharma. Overcome with joy, she screamed in ecstasy, her voice trembling with enlightenment.]
[The other maidens watched with envy, eagerly awaiting their turn to experience the supreme bliss of your teachings.]
[After her climax of spiritual awakening, the maiden lay dazed, her mind still lost in the Dharma's depths.]
[You chuckled and released her, letting her bask in the afterglow.]
[The other maidens on the petals glanced back at their entranced sister, their eyes filled with longing and nervous anticipation.]
[The lotus platform rotated, presenting the next disciple.]
[You sat with the solemnity of a Buddha. The maiden before you trembled under your divine presence.]
[Without hesitation, you raised your Vajra Pestle and began chanting, imparting the supreme Dharma directly into her.]
[These maidens were tainted by worldly impurities. Only by infusing them with your sacred teachings could you purify their corruption and guide them to paradise.]
[Under your tutelage, she soon reached enlightenment, her voice joining the sutras as her spirit ascended.]
[With your Golden Body and Abundance energy, you were an inexhaustible preacher. Maiden after maiden rotated before you, each receiving your wisdom and ascending to ecstasy.]
[One by one, they succumbed to bliss, their bodies limp and minds adrift in paradise. The petals cycled through batch after batch.]
[Time became irrelevant. Finally, you gazed upon the hundreds of maidens purified by your Vajra Pestle and smiled in satisfaction.]
