Chapter 77: Kyle And Tenzin Onwards To Godhood And Buddhahood!
[Kyle\'s consciousness was transferred into a world of nightmares, a brutal and unforgiving landscape where endless suffering awaited him. There, he would endure trials of unimaginable pain and fear, testing his will and strength.]
[The monk, on the other hand, found himself in an empty, desolate world—a space devoid of life or distraction. Here, he would meditate in total isolation, a world created to cultivate inner peace and strength, where every passing moment would test his patience and resilience.]
[Both were now trapped in the realities you had created, their conscious minds unaware of the experiment\'s true nature, but destined to endure it to the end.]
[The experiment had begun, and their paths to ascension—one through torture and the other through solitude—had just started.]
[As Kyle\'s consciousness settled into the simulated world you had crafted, his nightmare began.]
[Kyle first found himself in the Hell World, a place where devils themselves inflicted unimaginable torment upon him. He was boiled alive, skinned, dismembered, and subjected to every conceivable method of physical torture. The agony was relentless.]
[Each time he thought he couldn\'t endure any more, the pain would increase, dragging him further into suffering. And once he had served his "sentence" in this Hell World, death didn\'t bring him peace—it only brought him to the next layer of torment.]
[He awoke in a seemingly ordinary world—the Nightmare World. At first, everything seemed normal, even hopeful.]
[He got lucky breaks, won the lottery, met a beautiful girlfriend. But every instance of happiness was stripped away, leaving him in despair. His girlfriend cheated on him with a hideous man, his lottery winnings were stolen, and his life ended in tragedy over and over.]
[Each time he died in the Nightmare World, he was dragged back into the Hell World, where the cycle of torture and suffering began again.]
[The Nightmare World attacked his mind. Every moment was a struggle, as if the world itself was conspiring to make him suffer. It wasn\'t just about the tragedies—it was about the brief, fleeting moments of hope, always followed by soul-crushing despair.]
[Kyle retained his memories of every death, every pain, every moment of horror. To him, this was reality.]
[He remembered dying in the Avatar World, and believed he had been sent to Hell to serve his punishment.]
[In his mind, this suffering was his eternal fate, with no knowledge that it was all a carefully crafted illusion within your reality perception distortion ability.]
[There were moments when Kyle was on the verge of breaking, when he wanted to give up entirely. But something inside him refused to surrender. It was as though he were the protagonist in some cliché hero story, always persevering, even in the face of overwhelming odds.]
[Buried deep in his mind, the remnants of his childhood dream—the dream of being a hero—kept him going. He couldn\'t remember everything clearly, but he clung to the faint memory of someone telling him to become light.]
[For what felt like a hundred thousand years of suffering, Kyle endured the Hell World and the Nightmare World in a never-ending cycle. It was enough to break any ordinary person, but Kyle\'s spirit was stronger than even he had imagined.]
[Eventually, the accumulated energy from his relentless perseverance was enough. The torment ended, and Kyle woke from the simulated world.]
[He had succeeded.]
[When Kyle opened his eyes, he didn\'t speak to you or Evangeline. He didn\'t celebrate.]
[His mind had been reshaped by the experience, and he immediately went into seclusion within the Solstice Family stronghold, determined to consolidate the energy he had gained and form his godhead.]
[However, there was a noticeable downside to this method.]
[Unlike those who absorbed avatar crystals and celestial crystals, Kyle didn\'t have a clear blueprint for his godhead.]
[Normally, the crystals formed the foundation of the godhead within an avatar master\'s soul, guiding the transformation. Kyle had no such guidance.]
[He would have to rely entirely on his own strength to solidify the energy he had accumulated into a godhead that was uniquely his own.]
[This was a personal trial that even you couldn\'t interfere with. Kyle\'s path to godhood had to be walked alone.]
[As Kyle disappeared into seclusion, the old monk remained in his meditative trance within the Empty World.]
[Unlike Kyle\'s torturous experience, the monk\'s progress was slow and deliberate. While Kyle had already begun to form his godhead, the monk still sat in deep meditation, contemplating the infinite stillness of his reality.]
[The Empty World in which the monk, Tenzin, meditated was a vast expanse of nothingness. It lacked the distractions of the material world—there were no sounds, no sights, no sensations. Just an endless, silent void.]
[The world was barren, devoid of life, with no trees, mountains, or rivers. It was a place where time itself seemed irrelevant, stretching infinitely in all directions.]
[At first, Tenzin\'s experience was serene. The silence was welcomed, and his mind found solace in the emptiness. He chanted his mantras, focusing on the teachings of Buddha, on the journey toward enlightenment, and on detaching from worldly desires.]
[However, as time passed—days, months, years—he began to face a different kind of challenge.]
[The silence became oppressive.]
[Without human contact, without even the smallest sounds of nature, his mind wrestled with a new kind of loneliness. He felt as though he were fading from existence, losing his identity in the vast emptiness around him.]
[The hunger and thirst gnawed at his body, but strangely, it did not wither or weaken. It was as though the body had transcended physical limitations, but the mind was still bound to them.]
[This was the true test of the Empty World. It was not about enduring physical pain like Kyle\'s experience, but about battling the loss of self in an endless void.]
[It was spiritual endurance—Tenzin faced the annihilation of his ego, his sense of self, and his place in the universe. The vast stillness threatened to erase his very essence.]
[Yet, through it all, Tenzin remained steadfast. His path to enlightenment had always been about transcending the self, about releasing the attachments to identity and desire.]
[And so, as he chanted his mantras, he embraced the emptiness instead of resisting it. Each chant echoed within his soul, grounding him to his purpose. He recited the teachings of the Buddha, focusing on compassion, wisdom, and the nature of suffering.]
["Form is emptiness, and emptiness is form," he whispered to himself, over and over again.]
[As he meditated, the hunger, thirst, and silence became part of his practice. They were no longer distractions but tools for deepening his understanding.]
[He accepted the emptiness not as an enemy, but as the true nature of reality—a mirror to the impermanence of all things. His body became a vessel for the energy of the universe, and his soul deepened its connection to the cosmic truths.]
[Years turned into decades, and then into centuries.]
[In this endless expanse, Tenzin lost track of time entirely. But with each passing moment, he grew closer to his goal.]
[The lotus within his soul slowly began to take shape, not as a sudden burst of power but as a gradual unfolding—a delicate, slow blooming that reflected his journey.]
[It was after one million years, in the time of the Empty World, that Tenzin finally accumulated enough spiritual energy. His mind and soul had aligned perfectly, and the lotus in his soul had fully bloomed, signaling his readiness to step into Buddhahood.]
[With calm determination, Tenzin awoke from his meditation.]
[Unlike Kyle, who had rushed into seclusion to form his godhead, the monk greeted Linsley and Evangeline with a serene smile.]
["I am ready," Tenzin said quietly, his voice filled with the stillness of the Empty World. "The path has shown itself."]
[He nodded respectfully to both of them before heading to his assigned guest room in the Solstice Family stronghold, where he would condense his accumulated energy and form his buddha core.]
[This was the final step toward Buddhahood, the moment when his soul would be perfected and he would transcend the mortal world to become a Buddha.]
[You sighed, "It\'s only half a success. They\'ve accumulated the energy, but that\'s just the first step. Now, they have to form their godhead or Buddha core. That\'s something we can\'t help with."]
[Evangeline nodded in agreement, her gaze thoughtful. "Exactly. The real challenge is what comes next. It\'s all on them now to use that energy to break through. We\'ve brought them this far, but this part… this is something they have to do alone."]

[You crossed your arms, your expression serious. "Kyle has the energy to form his godhead, but whether he succeeds or not is up to him. And Tenzin... forming a Buddha core is no small feat either. They\'re at the brink, but it\'s still a long road ahead."]
