Chapter 795: Chapter 814: Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea, Scheme in Secret

Jieyin had suddenly produced a scroll of dazzling golden scriptures in his hands, which he then handed over to Ye Xuan with extreme care. It was clear that this Myriad Buddha True Scripture was the lifework of the Western Two Saints; from this, it could be seen that after converting Ye Xuan, the Western Two Saints had already accepted him as one of their own, even prepared to nurture him at any cost.

It was only by making Ye Xuan the seventh Heavenly Determined Saint that Buddhism in the West would have three Great Saints, and no longer be inferior to The Three Pure Ones.

“Thank you, Brother Jieyin. I will certainly study diligently and won’t let you down,” Ye Xuan, holding the Myriad Buddha True Scripture with both hands joined in prayer, bowed to Jieyin.

“Brother, this Bodhi Tree is the spiritual root of the Myriad Buddhas. Meditating under it will be greatly beneficial for your understanding of the Myriad Buddha True Scripture. I must attend to some trifles and will leave first. If you have any questions about the scripture, feel free to ask me on the back mountain,” Jieyin said cheerfully.

“Go ahead, Brother, I shall study this scripture on my own,” Ye Xuan said with a nod and a smile.

Watching Ye Xuan’s profound Buddhist nature, Jieyin felt greatly comforted and no longer harbored any doubts about him. He mounted the auspicious clouds and returned to the back mountain, leaving Ye Xuan alone to sit under the Bodhi Tree.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A gentle breeze blew, causing the branches and leaves of the Bodhi Tree to sway slightly. Ye Xuan unfolded the Myriad Buddha True Scripture and began to calmly study it.

Under a Bodhi Tree, a man of Buddhist nature, accompanied by a gentle breeze, holding the buddhist scripture, Ye Xuan truly seemed like a monk isolated from the worldly affairs, engrossed in the Myriad Buddha True Scripture, not only contemplating the principles of Buddhism but also delving into its supreme Divine Skills.

The sun rose and the moon fell, stars shifted across the sky.

Although this realm was created by the Western Two Saints, it still followed a cycle of sun and moon, and the stars twinkled in the Heavenly Vault, making this realm illuminated by starlight, pristine and brilliant.

Under the Bodhi Tree!

Ye Xuan slowly closed the Myriad Buddha True Scripture, the Buddha Light swirling around him undiminished, but the serene smile on his face slowly vanished, turning into a sinister and cold expression.

“What a formidable Soul Redemption Buddha Sound, it almost doomed me forever!” Ye Xuan murmured coldly, his countenance fierce and gloomy, which appeared particularly eerie under the Buddha Light.

“The Primordial Spirit really did appear!”

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, the Buddha Light in his eyes had already dissipated, replaced by a terrifyingly fierce look, not at all reflective of someone who had been converted.

The Primordial Spirit was indeed terrifying, and even though he had entered the sanctuaries of those two, they had not noticed him. It seemed he also needed to be extremely cautious.

Ye Xuan’s expression was extremely grave. From the Western Two Saints using the Soul Redemption Buddha Sound on him, thinking they had converted him, to the arrival of the Primordial Spirit, Ye Xuan had seen it all.

In fact, the Western Two Saints had made a big mistake, and this error provided Ye Xuan with the opportunity to escape from the catastrophe.

When Ye Xuan passed the Heavenly Dao’s First Tribulation, a faint holy power emerged within him, and just when he was about to be transformed in the final moment, this holy power saved him.

This holy power was extremely terrifying, vastly different from the holy power produced through the Merit to Saint process. It not only countered the transformation by the Western Two Saints but also concealed Ye Xuan completely, from the inside out, to the point where even the Western Two Saints detected nothing unusual.

Full of heavenly schemes and saintly aspirations, Ye Xuan relied on this internal holy power to achieve this feat, which exhilarated him. For the time being, the Western Two Saints posed no threat to him.

However, the miscalculation of the Western Two Saints lay here—if Ye Xuan had just entered this place and they had immediately used the Soul Redemption Buddha Sound on him, Ye Xuan would have been transformed. Ironically, for the sake of caution, the Western Two Saints allowed Ye Xuan to enter the Myriad Buddha Spirit Pond and undergo the Golden Lotus Buddha Fire’s transformation, coincidentally allowing him to pass the Heavenly Dao’s First Tribulation.

It seemed as if it was predestined, for after passing the Heavenly Dao’s First Tribulation, Ye Xuan underwent a dramatic transformation, and the faint holy power within him helped him resist the Soul Redemption Buddha Sound.

What Ye Xuan did not expect was for the Primordial Spirit to appear before him, stirring up tumultuous waves in his heart, almost making him tear off his disguise to converse with the Primordial Spirit.

But in the end, Ye Xuan endured. If he had truly torn off his disguise, not only would all his efforts be wasted alerting the Western Two Saints, but it would also make the Primordial Spirit wary. It was more advantageous to continue hiding.

“The Primordial Spirit is too mysterious. He wants to seize my body, control the Forbidden Chapter of the Undying Immortal Scripture, and even control the Heavenly Punishment Halberd. There must be many secrets I don’t know,” Ye Xuan murmured somberly.

“Now in the hands of the Western Two Saints, the Primordial Spirit must be more anxious than I am. He would not sit idly by. This gives me an opportunity to fish in troubled waters. If I can force him into combat with the Western Two Saints, it would be all benefit and no harm to me.”

Ye Xuan muttered to himself, a cold smile curling his lips and a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.

Seated under the Bodhi Tree in contemplation, Ye Xuan kept planning for possible encounters and thought about how to lure the Primordial Spirit to appear again, using the hand of the Western Two Saints to test him.

“Today, the Primordial Spirit revealed himself, certainly disturbing the peace. For now, he should not dare to appear again. Although the Western Two Saints have let down their guard against me, I must still tread carefully for now. I’ll study the divine skills in the Myriad Buddha True Scripture from these two bald thieves, considering this a small interest.”

It must be said, the Myriad Buddha True Scripture truly is a treasure between Heaven and Earth, encompassing various Great Techniques from the Buddhism lineage. But what truly caught Ye Xuan’s attention was the Saint’s Method from the Western Two Saints.

The Saint’s Method, not to be imparted lightly. Whether it be Daluo or Quasi-Saint, they could go their whole lives without a glimpse of it. Today, having acquired the Myriad Buddha True Scripture, Ye Xuan valued this enormous opportunity greatly. Though it would not advance his Cultivation further, mastering the Saint’s Method would unimaginably elevate him.

Especially as he now felt like a bird trapped in a cage. If he showed any irregularity, Jieyin would be the first to know—an outcome Ye Xuan definitely did not want to see.

Studying the Myriad Buddha True Scripture held great benefits for Ye Xuan, and for now, he did not wish to escape from the Western Two Saints, as the Primordial Spirit was more anxious than he.

He needed to think carefully about how to draw out the Primordial Spirit again and provoke a battle between him and the Western Two Saints, as that was his true goal.

Ye Xuan knew he was playing with fire, but there’s a saying: “Fortune favors the bold.” If he didn’t take this risk, how would Ye Xuan ever uncover the true identity of the Primordial Spirit?

Under the Bodhi Tree.

With the spring breeze and auspicious Buddha Light, Ye Xuan’s grim expression gradually vanished, once again assuming a compassionate demeanor as he spread out the Myriad Buddha True Scripture and studied it intently, his demeanor showing no signs of the turmoil within.
