The scenery in the Avalon Spirit Realm was exceedingly beautiful, with mountains and waters so clear it seemed as if they were filtered through a lens.
The Spirit Vein was especially conspicuous, represented by a lake in the very center.
The lake water was crystal clear and pure, shimmering with a dreamlike blue hue. Stars twinkled above its surface, and a pair of flat, plump feet tread upon it.
The owner of the feet wore a half-robe kasaya, exposing his right shoulder.
His features were deep-set, his skin white—a typical high-caste Tianzhu appearance. It must have been "Tathagata."
Immediately, Himiko warned her master, "This is the Tathagata, who has actually left the Earth Core!"
With an orchid finger gesture and a smile, the Tathagata said,
"I have long heard of Daoist Lu's deeds and have yearned to meet him. Today, having the opportunity to see you is indeed a fortunate event."
