Chapter 176: Even the Buddhist Lord Is Envious

One had to say, the Sonic Thunder’s Buddhist Lord did make quite an impressive appearance.

The illumination of his Buddhahood rank enveloped him, and a Dharmachakra[1] of cultivation merit was behind him, forming the reflection of the Buddha’s land.

The sounds of reciting Buddhist scriptures could be heard as the humongous Bodhi Tree avatar, which could even cover the sky, radiating in all directions.

Eight golden holy dragons were enveloping the Bodhi Tree; each was over 300 meters in length and looked exceptionally powerful.

According to rumors, the current Buddhist Lord had already successfully cultivated the true body of the Buddha. He was a living Buddha, one of the most powerful beings in the Eastern Wilderness.

The Buddhist Lord was best in the Great Wisdom Bodhi Wonderful Sutra, being proficient in all kinds of Buddhism principles and philosophy. He frequently visited other sacred grounds to discuss sutras and Dao with the Sacred Leaders, but it was rare for him to face defeat.

The Sonic Thunder’s Buddhist Lord was one of the two Sages with great wisdom in the Eastern Wilderness’ 12 sacred grounds. As for the other individual with great wisdom... it was none other than Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader.

Because of that, the Buddhist Lord had paid much attention to the next Bodhisattva.

The Buddhist Lord admired Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s Zhang Yunting. He believed Zhang Yunting’s father had influenced his wisdom and ability to cope with all matters with schemes and strategies.

The Buddhist Lord had always hoped for his disciple to be able to win against the successor of the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader when discussing about the Dao.

It was a pity that Bodhisattva Kuduo, who was of the same generation as Zhang Yunting, was completely a dunce—a barbaric monk without any wisdom at all.

The Buddhist Lord hoped that Bodhisattva Kuduo would be able to use Buddhism principles to win against the Dao of the Sacred Leader’s successor...

Well, it was basically impossible to achieve it, so the Buddhist Lord had also given up. Since Bodhisattva Kuduo was unable to surpass Zhang Yunting, then he should learn more from Zhang Yunting!

Thus, the Buddhist Lord had sent Bodhisattva Kuduo to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground to become friends with Zhang Yunting.

In the end, Bodhisattva Kuduo had not gotten close with Zhang Yunting. Instead, he had associated with Fang Chang. Also, the more these two blockheads interacted, the more simple-minded they became. In turn, that led them to be more daring, and they caused trouble everywhere non-stop.

Bodhisattva Kuduo had not learned the Great Wisdom Bodhi Wonderful Sutra, which could impress and brainwash people. On the contrary, he just spent his time outside to slay demons and fiends.

One had to know that even demons and fiends had intelligence. Buddha was compassionate, so they should be given a chance to repent and become a good person.

You just go slaughtering demons and fiends every day and pull hatred for our Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground. What if those demons and fiends seek revenge?

Isn’t it much better to bring the demons and fiends back to our sacred ground, to preach to them, and increase the sacred ground’s strength?

The Buddhist Lord had wanted to tell these to Kuduo long ago but unfortunately could not do so. That was because, according to the traditions of Buddhism, such matters were irrelevant to the Buddhist scriptures.

It was something all mighty figures would need to comprehend on their own. These were the unspoken rules, so the elders were unable to intervene. They could only hint their disciples continuously for them to comprehend on their own.

Bodhisattva Kuduo, being a blockhead, could not understand the unspoken rules no matter what, which enraged the Buddhist Lord.

If it were not for Bodhisattva Kuduo holding a special, irreplaceable position in their Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground, he would have already accepted another disciple, not bothering with a fellow without the root of wisdom.

...

Buddha sounds echoed from the avatar that the Buddhist Lord had manifested; it contained great wisdom.

The Sacred Leader’s lightning and heavenly aura shone brightly, and the sound of Dao could be vaguely heard within the heavens and earth, dispersing the Buddhist Lord’s sounds.

He looked at the Buddhist Lord and spoke calmly. “Brother Tianxiu, your understanding of Buddhism has deepened increasingly.”

The Buddhist Lord revealed a knowing smile. “Thank you. My body’s like a Bodhi tree. My heart seems a mirror to be. I’d always keep them fit and clean, not to let dust onto them creep.

“I am no genius. I have yet to grasp the most profound knowledge of the Great Wisdom Bodhi Wonderful Sutra, so I dare not slack off for a moment.”

Upon hearing the Buddhist Lord’s answers, Azure Lotus’ and Whit Lotus’ facial expressions became serious.

Everyone knew that the Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground’s Great Wisdom Bodhi Wonderful Sutra was a supreme heritage. If one mastered the Great Wisdom Bodhi Wonderful Sutra, then one could comprehend 3,000 sutras thoroughly in a day, directly becoming a Buddha.

One would truly become a Buddha, physically and mentally, free of earthly worries.

In the passage of 10,000 years, none of the Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground’s Buddhist Lords could reach that realm. Thus, the difficulty of achieving that realm was self-evident.

However, the Buddha sounds accompanying the Buddhist Lord proved that he was not far from that supreme realm, just a step away.

If this step could be achieved, Buddhist Lord Tianxiu would most probably oppress the entire Eastern Wilderness’ Dao cultivation system. Thus, Buddhism would outshine Daoism.

Naturally, such a situation was definitely not what the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground or any other Dao sacred grounds were willing to see, as their core teachings were different.

Just a branched-out Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground of the West Desert Buddhism Sect was able to oppress the sacred grounds in Eastern Wilderness? The Dao sacred grounds would lose all their reputation and face!

White Lotus Mountain’s atmosphere froze as the two sacred grounds were secretly competing.

The Buddhist Lord did not regard himself as an outsider, so he smiled and said, “So how’s Martial Nephew’s injury?”

Before the Sacred Leader could answer, Fang Chang and Bodhisattva Kuduo walked toward them with large strides, their arms over each others’ shoulders.

He grinned from ear to ear and bowed to the Buddhist Lord. “Thank you for your concern, Buddhist Lord. I have completely recovered.”

The Buddhist Lord looked at Bodhisattva Kuduo, who had his arm over Fang Chang’s shoulders, and his eyes shone. “You’ve recovered?”

It shouldn’t be!

Bodhisattva Kuduo had begged the Buddhist Lord previously for the Golden Body Potion full of tears. He had even promised to the Buddhist Lord that he would read sutras properly in the future.

Although the Buddhist Lord did not believe Kuduo, he still gave him the Golden Body Potion because he knew it could not heal the Dao injury nor mend the cracked Golden Core.

Since Fang Chang could not survive for long, the Buddhist Lord did not mind being a good person and lending a helping hand.

What happened just now? Why is Kuduo with Fang Chang again? How did he recover?

Bodhisattva Kuduo seemed to want to show off to his master, so he took out his Nirvana Holy Liquid bottle.

He smiled and said, “That’s right. It was because the Divine Firmament’s Saint, Senior Brother Shen Tian, had a few thousand liters of Nirvana Holy Liquid. He shared 100L to save Fang Chang and even helped Fang Chang to reach the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage.”

A few thousand liters of Nirvana Holy Liquid? In that instant, the Buddhist Lord was astounded.

Isn’t the Nirvana Holy Liquid a supreme-grade healing treasure that even 250mL is difficult to obtain? So how could this unknown new Saint take out a few thousand liters?

The Buddhist Lord looked at the Sacred Leader. He was still holding his Golden Brahma Kamal Flower in his hand, but he could no longer smile.

“Dao Brother Longyuan, when did your sacred ground obtain a new Saint? Why have I not heard of him?”

The heavenly aura around the Sacred Leader started fluctuating. “Tian’er is my new disciple. His Saint coronation ceremony is going to be held one year later. The invitations will be sent out as soon as possible.”

In the cultivation world, the mighty figures would enter seclusion for half to a year, or even tens, or up to 100 years. Thus, as long as there were important ceremonies, preparations had to be done at least a year before. The preparation for the Saint’s coronation ceremony might start 100 years beforehand!

The Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was one of the 12 sacred grounds, so the Saint’s coronation ceremony had to be extravagant enough to keep the sacred ground’s reputation.

The Buddhist Lord seemed to be deep in thought. He looked at Shen Tian, who was trying to keep a low profile, and his eyes lit up.

Such an incredibly handsome man! He is really suitable to promote Buddhism!

If he could enter our sect, he would be invincible in increasing the number of believers!

He wouldn’t even need to cultivate the “Great Wisdom Bodhi Wonderful Sutra”. He just needs to be handsome enough.

When he meets those female patrons, he just needs to smile and say, “Amitabha, you are fated with the Buddha.”

Then in the whole Eastern Wilderness, the increase in the amount of loyal Buddhist believers would be tremendous. The whole sacred ground would thus become prosperous!

At that thought, the Buddhist Lord took a look at his dumb disciple, who had his arms around Fang Chang’s shoulder, and vice versa. This disciple only knew how to laugh foolishly.

The comparison rendered the Buddhist Lord speechless, and he went green with envy!
