"What about the Joyful Buddha? Grandpa, we need to hurry up a bit. That guy Chen Qing, he really is quite lucky."
"Why?" Old Liu indeed did not delay. After all, that guy Chen Qing could take off at any mont, and now that he finally knew the direction, of course, he wouldn’t be careless.
"Among the thirty-six Buddhas, the Joyful Buddha is the weakest. Chen Qing is a clone, and he probably doesn’t know the hidden location of the Buddha Kingdom back then. So this seems purely a matter of luck..."
The grandson of Old Liu had a sowhat gloomy expression. His elder brother died a horrible death, and grandpa’s Space-Ti Jade was lost, almost all thanks to Chen Qing. Even just a clone could be so troubleso, it’s no wonder grandpa was so cautious with him. Unexpectedly, his luck was even good enough to encounter the weakest among the Buddhas!
"Chen Qing’s luck isn’t that good..." Old Liu said with a slight smile.
If other Buddhas encountered Chen Qing, even the strongest Past Buddha might not be able to keep a hold of Chen Qing. But this one... is different. If Chen Qing ets him, the odds of winning are probably less than ten percent.
"Grandpa thinks that Chen Qing can’t even deal with the Joyful Buddha?" The kid asked curiously.
"As for the Joyful Buddha himself, there are indeed many weaknesses, especially before his power is restored. Relying too much on the Buddhist mother, it’s easy for Chen Qing to exploit gaps, but the premise is that back then, he didn’t set up that trap."
"Trap?"
"It should be said... it’s also his luck." Old Liu looked distantly towards the horizon. The path the Joyful Buddha chose was too obscure, ultimately relying on the path of lust which cannot lead to the ultimate step. He was always seeking change until one day... he fortunately found a prototype of a Dao Fruit!
------------------------------------------
"A conspiracy over a million years?"
Upon hearing Chen Qing’s words, the Buddhist mother felt even more panicked. She felt that the Joyful Buddha was too calm about his betrayal, as if he hadn’t anticipated it but still... didn’t care.
Previously, she couldn’t comprehend what his trump card was.
After all, if the Joyful Buddha can’t tempt Li Yankong, and if he allows him to save more than seven high-quality seeds and get them on her side, then the roles of attacker and defender would be reversed!
And now... a second person who will not be tempted appears in the dream.
And this person, compared to Li Yankong, seems completely different.
"This thing is very strange. According to Ao Zhen back then, it seems to have erged from nowhere, a wild demon without any power or resources, who grew to a near King Level in a very short ti. This only shows how special this demon is."
"I have been thinking about why Ao Zhen, who is clearly in the Southern Sea, would appear here?"
"Logically, if captured, sending it to the place where this Buddha resides from so far away must have a reason. It can’t be that he ca here in advance to wait for , right?"
Chen Qing rubbed his fingers, staring at the rigid Ao Zhen in the picture: "Ao Zhen didn’t co here because of , because no one can precisely predict that I would co here. Ao Zhen ca here because of the Sword Spirit, Ao Zhen... is a whetstone!"
"Whetstone?" The Buddhist mother wasn’t foolish, and upon Chen Qing ntioning this, she responded imdiately.
This Sword Spirit’s life has been unique, battling life and death with those who excell in swordsmanship. Each victory made it stronger. In its previous life, it encountered Ao Zhen and, after being cut off from its path, went through several reincarnations until now. It acquired its power once more and progressed greatly in spirit. Now, killing Ao Zhen again would break its inner demons, and very likely... it would imdiately beco a new King Level!
And with this thing’s unique power...
The Joyful Buddha is seeking transformation!
The Buddhist mother’s pupils dilated, she finally understood why the Joyful Buddha has not cared about her trying to take the Joyous Buddha Power from the start. Because he simply did not care, from the beginning, he planned to abandon the world of lust.
"If that’s the case..." the Buddhist mother suddenly smiled: "It seems that there is no longer a reason for cooperation between and my senior."
"Oh?" Chen Qing heard the dangerous tone in her voice but was not surprised, nor panicked, and responded indifferently: "Do you think so?"
"Isn’t that so?" the Buddhist mother said with a laugh: "I collaborated with the senior to take down the realm of lust and beco the new Joyful Buddha, but now that fellow has long been prepared to transform, so there’s no conflict between him and , right?"
"If you had done nothing before, maybe there would have been no conflict..." Chen Qing said indifferently: "But you didn’t, you betrayed him."
"What’s the big deal?" Upon hearing this, the Buddhist mother covered her mouth and chuckled: "We are all under the sa power, there’s no need to escalate to a Life and Death situation. Since there is no absolute conflict of interest, we are all from the sa root, why should we slaughter each other? Doesn’t he understand this simple truth?"
"Perhaps he used to understand..." Chen Qing shook his head.
"What do you an by that, senior?" The Buddhist mother smiled as she approached, but she was cautious not to let Chen Qing escape.
At this mont, there was not a trace of Spiritual Power on Chen Qing’s body. If she could take down Chen Qing herself, her claim to the position of Joyful Buddha would be even more legitimate!
Despite the obvious malice from the other side, Chen Qing was still not in a hurry. He pointed to the floating eyes and said in a faint voice: "Take a look..."
The Buddhist mother frowned and, while guarding against Chen Qing, she glanced over the situation within the Thousand Eyes Technique. After seeing what was happening inside, she was stunned for a mont.
Just a mont ago, she had a sword at the throat, yet now she had voluntarily retreated?
What was that fellow doing?
"Why did you retreat?" Ao Zhen, after surviving a close brush with death, felt not a trace of joy. On the contrary, a naless rage surged from within her heart.
Because she could clearly see the disdain in the other’s eyes.
"You are not the Ao Zhen of the past... Killing you now is no different from killing a chicken by the roadside..."
Ao Zhen: "....."
"I’m giving you ti..." Lin Feng spoke and then actually sat down on the ground. He placed his long sword casually beside him, closed his eyes, and said: "You better hurry up, my patience is not that great."
"You...." A sense of unprecedented suffocation flooded her heart, but even so, she still dared not move her sword again so easily.
The hand clutching the sword was trembling, unable to take a step forward!
"What is this...." The Buddhist mother was taken aback, sowhat puzzled.
"Haven’t you figured it out yet?" Chen Qing said coldly: "That Sword Spirit is taking the most pure path of slaughter. Such a path demands an unobstructed heart. Any slight disorder in emotions would make it impossible to be as pure as it. He is giving Ao Zhen ti because he wants to sever the ties of the past. The only defeat of his life, which ended his Sword Spirit career - Ao Zhen is an obstruction to him. Only by defeating a completely prepared Ao Zhen can his mind reach enlightennt."
"Once he succeeds, his path will soar into the heavens, imdiately becoming the pinnacle among King Level, even touching the threshold of Monarch is not impossible!"
"Such a monster, even if the Joyful Buddha could occupy him through the seed, to steal his Dao Fruit, he needs to have the sa state of mind to control it. Your betrayal is an obstruction to him. Getting rid of you is not a question of trouble, but only by killing you, can he beco as pure as the Sword Spirit!"
"Nonsense!" The Buddhist mother rebutted imdiately.
But then she looked uncertainly inside again. At that mont, the two of them stood frozen against each other, with the atmosphere tensing. Lin Feng’s deanor, closed-eyed and ditating, seed to indeed confirm what Chen Qing had said, his Dao Heart pure, coming here for this very reason— even if he would be killed by Ao Zhen again, he would still make the sa choice.
To kill an incomplete Ao Zhen would an a forever-present inner demon, and his own Dao path would be ruined.
Whereas if the Joyful Buddha took over such a pure being...
"Have you thought it through?" Chen Qing smiled as he watched the Buddhist mother retreat.
"Even so, what can you change?" The Buddhist mother stared intently at him: "You have no Spiritual Power, and I suppose you also don’t dare to willingly enter the dreamscape, right? Since that’s the case... Even if you know all this, what can you do?"
