Chapter 11: Jinmu Moves Mountains, Mythical Transformations

"I feel it!"

"Everything has come back!"

Garuda tilted his head back, slightly closed his eyes, revealing a look of enjoyment, and spread his arms wide as if embracing the entire world, welcoming the Supreme Lord back into his body.

The Ritual Master Immortal showed a face full of satisfaction.

Such classic deeds of acknowledging one's mistakes and returning to the Righteous Law should indeed be recorded.

At this moment, the Ritual Master Immortal was certain, and decided to write a book of past events for future Brahman to recite.

He flipped his palm and whoosh, a stack of paper and a pen appeared, and he began to write.

"Under the guidance of Heavenly Emperor Indra, Garuda repented for his arrogance, learning to respect his brothers and leaders…"

The Ritual Master Immortal wrote with vigorous strokes.

BOOM!

Just as they were immersed in this joyful moment, an unknown tremor quietly emerged, a violent quake suddenly shaking the Three Realms.

The entire Heavenly Realm trembled incessantly, as if to upend heaven and earth, to turn upside down.

What!!!

Indra's expression became stern, and he immediately asked, "What's happening?"

"I'll take a look!"

Water God Varuna immediately propped himself up with both hands, invoking Divine Power and created a water mirror in front of the gods.

Within the water mirror.

A giant that reached the sky and pressed the earth suddenly appeared in the Mortal Realm.

This giant was clad in golden armor, with a pair of golden eyes as resplendent as the sun, radiating endless brilliance, while his arms were like the coils of the Snake King Naga, with countless twists, seemingly holding the power to support the world.

"Doing it myself is too slow, let's use this instead!"

At this moment, the golden-eyed giant's voice thundered as he clasped Mandara Mountain, the centerpiece of the Mortal Realm, lifting it straight from the ground as if he intended to move it away.

BOOM!

The earth quaked, mountains shook, cracking open countless fissures that spread for billions of miles.

All sorts of plants, animals, and Yakshas on Mandara Mountain scattered in terror, numerous rocks and stones raining down like fiery meteors, crashing into the earth.

"Not good!"

"It's Mandara Mountain, Mandara Mountain is the center of the Mortal Realm, connecting directly to the Heavenly Realm and Earth, what does he plan to do by moving it?!"

The Ritual Master Immortal exclaimed in alarm.

"I thought Garuda was already unmatched in the world!"

"Where does this Asura come from, to be so valiant!"

Indra took a deep breath, expressing his astonishment.

Garuda's wings could shake the Heavenly Realm, but when compared to this fellow, he seemed like a minor deity before a great one.

Stay out of this!

"Heavenly Emperor, have you forgotten? He is Jinmu, the king of the Daityas and also the King of Asura from Earth!"

"I've long heard that the two brothers have been in arduous cultivation. It must be that Jinmu has completed his cultivation and obtained the Blessing Force, becoming this powerful."

The Ritual Master Immortal's eyes widened as he stared at Jinmu and murmured.

Upon hearing this, Indra recalled the information, and he immediately came to a realization.

Jinmu, King of Asura!

The legendary Asura king who dragged the earth into the Milk Sea, trying to destroy the world, and who was later killed by Vishnu incarnated as a boar, pinned down on the earth.

He is the son of Kashyapa and Diti.

These sons are called the Daityas, the sons of Diti. The sons of Kashyapa and Danu are called Danavas, meaning sons of Danu.

The Daityas and Danavas are the two main branches among the Asuras!

And their counterparts, the sons of Kashyapa and Aditi, are the Adityas, the sons of Aditi.

"Could it be Brahma?"

Indra immediately thought of the Three Aspects Deity, who loved to Bestow Blessing the most.

Could Jinmu have obtained this Blessing Force to lift the earth from him?

Probably, likely, almost certainly!

"Didn't he go to the Milk Sea to meet the Supreme Lord?"

"Wait a minute!"

Garuda's face was filled with shock. He had previously seen Sukhacara Sage take this Asura to the Milk Sea.

Thinking of this, he immediately realized what was happening, and muttered to himself, "He wouldn't be planning to use Mandara Mountain to churn the Milk Sea, would he?"

After uttering these words, Garuda was also startled by his own conjecture.

A single person lifting the entire Mandara Mountain!

Who in the Heavenly Realm could withstand that! Who in the Three Realms could withstand that!

Indra frowned and pondered.

If this guy really went to churn the Milk Sea.

The Amrita, which grants eternal life, is also within the Milk Sea, and if this guy consumed it, then there would be big trouble. The Devas would probably have to go to the Earth to work as security guards, guarding the door.

Plus, the Devas haven't drunk the Amrita, they don't have the Immortal Power, so if they died, they would really be dead.

"One must drink the Amrita first to relax properly, otherwise, all is lost!"

"If we really can't beat him, Protector God Vishnu will also enter the fray, and if all else fails, the blessing just bestowed by Goddess Salabhamvid might allow us to go to Brahmaloka. Jinmu should give face to elder ancestor Brahma, right?!"

Indra thought to himself.

He prepared for defeat before considering victory.

Having thought of where to go in case of defeat, Indra then walked forward slowly, approaching Garuda.

"Let's go, transform into a great Peng, and take us to the Milk Sea!"

Indra commanded decisively.

For the sake of being able to relax and enjoy life later, he decided to try churning the Milk Sea.

Garuda was stunned for a moment.

No one but the Supreme Lord had ever stepped on his back, but the urgency of the situation left no room for such concerns!

He would consider it for the sake of Lady Master Goddess Lakshmi then!

Garuda consoled himself with this thought.

Screech!!!

Garuda raised his head and let out a piercing cry that echoed across the sky and lingered for a long time.

His body also flickered with golden light, growing in size as his wingspan expanded boundlessly. He then slightly bowed and knelt halfway to the ground.

Indra immediately leapt onto his back, followed closely by the gods and the Ritual Master Immortal.

No sooner had they steadied themselves than Garuda instantly took flight, sensing the Supreme Lord's location and heading towards the Milk Sea.

Whoosh!

Giant wings obscured the sky, passing through the realms of heaven and mortals.

As Indra and the others drew closer, they could no longer clearly see the full form of the Jinmu Asura.

The vast body of the Jinmu Asura kept moving, with every single hair resembling mountains countless miles high, so immense and constantly trembling, emitting a lotus-like glow from its many pores, dazzling and bright.

"So big!"

Sun God Surya exclaimed in surprise.

"With such strength, no wonder he could uproot the Mandara Mountain, the center of the world!" Fire God Agni remarked with awe.

At that moment, the gods were anxious and distressed.

With the Jinmu Asura manifesting in the world, his power was indeed beyond the gods, and even at their peak, they might not be able to stop him.

"It's the power of his Blessing Force at play, but he should also be slowly weakening under the curse. It's just that the curse hasn't lasted long and hasn't taken away too much of his strength," Indra analyzed.

The curse of the Raggedy Immortal and the disappearance of Goddess Lakshmi meant that a decline in strength was almost inevitable, and it was the same for Jinmu.

But because his blessing was so strong, his foundation remained incredibly powerful, leaving him with enough energy to exert his strength.

"That makes sense!"

The Ritual Master Immortal nodded, taking out his little notebook and continuing to write the narrative: "On the journey to the Milk Sea, Heavenly Emperor Indra discerned the weakness of Jinmu..."

Garuda broke into the Milk Sea in one breath.

"Supreme Lord, I have arrived!"

In that instant, Garuda traversed the endless Milk Sea and saw the Supreme Lord he had been yearning for.

Whoosh!

The gods transformed into streaks of golden light, landing on the surface of the Milk Sea.

Protector God Vishnu frowned slightly, his expression worried and complex.

"Indra, oh..."
