Chapter 608: Chapter 502: The Light of Triple City, The Gathering of the Ascetics! (5000 words mega Chapter)_2
"Salute!"
"Supreme Lord, I salute you!"
"I salute you, the Lord of all worlds, the venerable one who holds the Vedas!"
[Lianmu] pressed his palms together and continued.
As his voice arose, the Golden City revolved like a wheel, emitting brilliance, and the surrounding black fog vanished like snow melting in the spring sun.
"Salute!"
"I salute you, the revered god born upon the lotus flower, the wise god of four faces!"
[Lianmu]’s voice carried on.
The radiance from the Golden City shone forth like a spinning rope, sweeping in all directions.
Whoosh!
In an instant, the golden light blasted upon Rahu and Ketu.
"Ah!!!"
"It’s hot! So hot!"
Rahu’s scalp tingled as if it were on fire, and he screamed, black smoke billowing from his neck, dancing chaotically in the starry sky.
He howled and darted wildly through the stars.
Ketu’s tail even flew directly toward the Heavenly Realm.
[Lianmu] was still continuing.
"Salute! Salute!"
"I salute you, the ancient ancestor of many creatures, the one who embodies Moon God Soma!"
[Lianmu]’s voice was calm.
But the brilliance of the Golden City made no effort to hide, and in a flash, it formed a golden light sphere in the sky, like a Brahman Heavenly Treasure, drawing a perfect arc and charging straight at the Devas.
"Hm?"
"This is coming at us!"
"Run!"
Moon God Soma’s eyes widened as he stared at the ever-enlarging light sphere, revealing a look of horror in an instant.
Sun God Surya was also panicked.
Fire God Agni, Wind God Vayu, and Water God Varuna all looked up.
The next moment, the sphere fell, crashing down amidst the stars and onto the many Devas.
Boom!
Rumble!
The starry sky shook, the rotating galaxy shifted from its place, the stellar shells cracked, and magma exploded, with rings of golden light spreading one after another in the sky.
In Brahmaloka.
Brahma and his wife watched all this happen.
"..."
Sarasvatidevi was speechless for a moment, she turned her head slightly to look at her husband.
Brahma quickly blinked his eyes.
"The blessing of these three cities seeks eternity; eternity requires strength for protection, hence having more than twice the power of all Devas!"
"It’s just that I didn’t expect Lianmu to use this power so soon!"
Brahma was heavy-hearted.
He took a deep breath and couldn’t help but sigh, his heavy sighs blowing through his snow-white beard as if a late evening breeze through a dense forest, filled with a profound sense of melancholy.
This time he too received praise, yet he was not happy.
Instead, he felt somewhat depressed!
Unhappy!
Brahma’s mood grew heavy.
...
At this moment, the Golden City.
[Lotus Eye]’s gaze became intense as he brought his hands together in prayer and continued to speak.
"Praise!"
"Homage to the Creator! Thank you for the blessings you have bestowed! For granting this endless Eternal City!"
The voice of [Lotus Eye] reverberated, growing grander and more majestic, resonating ceaselessly.
At this point, he paused slightly, then looked up slightly, gazing at the Heavenly Realm above, resplendent with brilliance.
"Come!"
"Everyone come!"
"O ancestors of ascetics who ascended from the gardens of Heaven! Immortals from the Tranquil Forests and atop the altars! Tigers among men unmatched within the kingdoms!"
"The three Eternal Cities shall stand here forevermore!"
"Here, all your desires will be satisfied! Everything you need shall be provided! All the worries you loathe shall leave you forever!"
"Everything that life requires — profit, law, and desire — convenes right here!"
"Come quickly!"
"Enter the triple city of gold, silver, and iron, and you will ultimately achieve eternity!"
The voice of [Lotus Eye] echoed.
In this moment, the Golden City rotated, and within the city shaped like a turning wheel, high walls suddenly rose, instantly coming together to form a length and width of a hundred yojanas, with majestic arches standing tall, glittering with dazzling, golden light.
Whoosh!
As his voice echoed through the Three Realms, the golden light rippled like waves upon water, gradually spreading out.
And the Silver City and Black Iron City also began to shine brightly.
The three cities flashed with divine radiance; the lights of three colors intertwined, like the undying intertwining of three natures, weaving a brilliant light that fully illuminated the Three Realms.
The ascetics who practiced severe austerities and chanted the Vedas were bathed in this light.
"Oh, radiance!"
"The light of liberation, the light of eternity that we never bathed in before, shall we now bask in it here?"
"The dream of liberation and eternity, is it to be realized here?"
The great ascetics were excited.
They had already sought Indra during the last illumination of the Three Realms by the light of liberation, but to no avail.
However, this time, they had a brand new opportunity!
To be able to feel this eternal light within these three cities, what an incredibly blissful destiny!
In an instant, the peoples of the Three Realms began to stir.
...
Vighna.
The many immortals who had gathered here stood still, craning their necks to stare up at the Golden City in the starry sky.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
In a moment, these immortals who had been standing began to look around them.
"The Eternal City calls me, and my heart responds; I shall go!"
"Since I have yet to meet Narayana, then I too shall go!"
"Oh Eternal City!"
...
The immortals began to speak one after another.
At that time, someone adjusted the Sacred Thread slung across their body, glanced furtively a few times, and then took big strides toward the outside of Vighna.
As someone left, immediately more followed suit.
"Narayana, oh Narayana!"
"Such a holy radiance, how tempting it sounds!"
[Narada the Immortal] followed the others who left, arrived outside of Vighna, stood midair, and looked up at the triple city.
