Chapter 479: Chapter 114 Stealing the Bodhi Saint Tree
“Indeed, since I agreed, I naturally won’t go back on my word!”
Zhang Xuan nodded without saying more. His heart thumped once, and the power of the Yin Sha Demon Essence Pill flowed throughout his body. Simultaneously, countless Destiny Plates shattered, transforming into pure Buddhist spiritual energy.
The fusion of Buddha and Demon, in an instant, Zhang Xuan attained the cultivation of Peak of Life Sea 9-dan. His figure imdiately turned into a shadow, swiftly heading towards the central palace.
This was the Buddha’s residence, where an Ancient Bodhi Tree he had once ditated under stood.
The Frost Demon Lord wanted to reform his body, and this tree was essential.
The Bodhi fruit had the effect of enlightening the mind. The trunk, however, contained veins and patterns similar to blood vessels. Using this material to forge a body could not only nurture the soul but also store strength, making it like a real corporeal body.
The Mystical Puppet used by Elder Jiang Li back then was sculpted from this kind of tree.
Whoosh!
Zhang Xuan moved forward slowly, unnoticed by anyone, and soon arrived in front of the Ancient Bodhi Tree.
The tree was tall, about seventy or eighty ters, with branches and leaves spreading over an acre of land. Thirty crystal-clear fruits hung on it, exuding a faint fragrance.
“This is the highest sacred land of the Buddhist Sect, how could it be so easy to walk over without triggering any chanism? Not even the Buddha has noticed?”
The Frost Demon Lord couldn’t help but comnt.
The other party’s entrance was too smooth, so simple that it was unbelievable.
“I borrowed the strength of the Blue Cloud Venerable… Naturally, I wouldn’t trigger the Buddhist Sect’s formations. As for the Buddha and many Bodhisattvas, their attention is all on the Crown Prince and Ren Qiuyao right now, they don’t have ti to notice … Besides, I also used my fortune!”
Zhang Xuan sneered lightly.
Since the Crown Prince knew he had co to the Buddhist’s place, he would certainly try to find him. So along the way, he searched for traces, which in the eyes of the Buddha, had another purpose.
Thus, whether it was the Buddha or the Bodhisattvas, they would be attracted to his arrival, absolutely not expecting soone else would sneak in.
The most important thing was, knowing it was dangerous, there wouldn’t be any backup left here. The thirty units of fortune borrowed from Liu Xuanji imdiately started to operate the mont he set foot on the mountain.
Indeed, it was a First Level Destiny, the effect was very strong. Along the way, every single step perfectly aligned with the patrolling monks’ blind spots, allowing him to pass without leaving any traces.
Just as Zhang Xuan arrived in front of the Bodhi Tree, a calm voice resounded in the central hall.
“What has brought His Highness the Crown Prince here?”
The voice was heavy yet kind, not overly oppressive but impossible to contradict.
The Buddha!
Although his practice was of a Tier 2 Heavenly Destiny, his cultivation had long reached the pinnacle of the Source World, truly a transcendent figure. Not to ntion the Crown Prince, even Emperor Fusheng wouldn’t dare to offend him lightly.
“I received so news from the Wanxiang Sect… I wish to discuss it with the Buddha. May I speak?” Prince Yuanqing smiled faintly.
“Please speak!” the Buddha said.
Prince Yuanqing said, “I am currently pursuing a fugitive who revealed traces in Tianli City today. According to information from the Wanxiang Sect, the person has sohow infiltrated the Buddhist Sect. I ca specifically to request Your Holiness to hand over this person. As for compensation, I will spare no effort…”
The Buddha shook his head. “Besides Your Highness, no one else has entered today!”
“No one else? That’s impossible!”
Prince Yuanqing frowned, finding it hard to believe. “The information from the Wanxiang Sect shouldn’t be false…”
If it was just Hu Sheng’s claim, he wouldn’t believe it. But with the sa statent from the Wanxiang Sect, how could there be an error?
“Indeed…”
The Buddha nodded and was about to say more when his pupils suddenly contracted, the calm and steady deanor replaced by anger.
“How dare you cause trouble in this sacred ground of the Buddhist Sect…”
Before he could finish, a loud voice echoed in the hall.
“Your Highness, I have the item. It’s enough for Elder Jiang Li to refine a body. I will leave now…”
Whoosh!
With these words, the massive Bodhi Tree standing in the central square disappeared as if taken into a storage ring. Even the ground beneath was scraped, and countless gold was stolen.
The disappearance of the Bodhi Tree and the ground was so swift that a small vortex of spiritual energy ford as the space collapsed.
Whoosh!
A figure clad in armor appeared abruptly a hundred ters from the Bodhi Tree, turning into a golden streak heading straight down the mountain.
“It must be Zhang Xuan…”
First stunned, Prince Yuanqing quickly reacted.
There was no one else who could appear here, steal the Bodhi Tree, and fra him, besides Zhang Xuan.
It seems the information from the Wanxiang Sect was true. But… why would this guy steal a tree?
Could it be that the reward for catching him in the Buddhist Sect included Bodhi fruit, and out of spite, he decided to rob the entire tree?
This is too abstract!
“Damned thief, daring to fra . Watch catch you…”
These thoughts flashed by in an instant. Prince Yuanqing shouted, raised his hand, and summoned the Mountain River Order.
Imdiately, the space within the hall was sealed, thick like mud.
The many Bodhisattvas who were about to teleport and charge forward found themselves immobilized, their expressions turning particularly grim.
Though with the Crown Prince’s strength, even mobilizing the Mountain River Order couldn’t hold them for long, to break it would be disrespecting royal authority and attracting severe bla.
“Your Highness, what is the aning of this?” the Silent Extinction Nirvana Bodhisattva couldn’t help but shout.
Clearly, summoning the Mountain River Order was less about stopping the thief and more about holding them back!
“This person frad . I will catch him myself and apologize to the Buddha!”
With a cold snort, Prince Yuanqing’s power exploded and he chased straight ahead. But after flying less than ten ters, his strength halted, and he found himself unable to move, shackled.
“Buddha…”
Aware that only one person here could restrain him so effortlessly, Prince Yuanqing turned to look.
“Until things are clear, Your Highness, you shall stay,” the Buddha said, his face expressionless.
“Does Buddha suspect ? It’s a setup! If it were truly my doing, why would he state his motive so openly…”
Prince Yuanqing exclaid quickly.
How could the Buddha not see that ntioning Jiang Li or the stolen item was a blatant setup? Only an idiot wouldn’t understand.
