Chapter 985: The Saintess Luo Ye Captured
Facing the mysterious origins of the Dragon Tree Buddha, Ye Yun had many doubts in his heart, so he held back.
Otherwise...
Once the Sword of Death Realm was summoned, a single strike could kill the Dragon Tree Buddha.
Even if the Dragon Tree Buddha had merged with the Buddha Flame Root and greatly increased his defensive power, he still couldn’t withstand the might of this sword.
Although Ye Yun harbored some resentment towards the Buddha Flame Root and had always wanted to eliminate it before,
the sudden appearance of the Dragon Tree Buddha, and his fusion with the Buddha Flame Root, brought up the notion of the Formless Tree.
This sparked some interest in Ye Yun’s heart.
Only five people in the Divine Land knew the name of the Formless Tree—where exactly did it come from?
...
The wounded Dragon Tree Buddha continuously tore open the void, escaping the Jade Buddha Cave Sky in the span of just two or three breaths.
Ye Yun relentlessly pursued.
The Dragon Tree Buddha had only merged with the root essence of the Buddha Flame Root; in the vast Divine Land, the Buddha Flame Root still had countless clones.
If, while injured, the root essence of the Buddha Flame Root could summon those clones and merge with them, it would save Ye Yun a lot of trouble.
Deep within the Jade Buddha Sect.
Above the massive lake, all the various powers of the Buddha Sect stood, staring blankly at the large hole above, their faces shocked and speechless.
Originally, two Yinfutis were already shocking enough to everyone.
Little did they expect a sudden change.
One of the Yinfutis turned out to be the root essence of the Buddha Flame Root.
And this Buddha Flame Root’s essence was actually the only Purple Buddha in the Divine Land—the roots of the Dragon Tree Buddha.
And the Dragon Tree Buddha was not a human cultivator but a mysterious great demon.
This shocking news, even the disciples of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect, had never heard before.
"It’s unimaginable that the essence of the Dragon Tree Buddha is the Formless Tree—so what exactly is this Formless Tree?"
On the huge lotus leaf, a middle-aged monk in red, with a strange expression, said with mixed feelings.
"Uncle Master, the Dragon Tree Buddha has left wounded, and the Saintess of the Buddha Shrine’s Yinfuti pursues relentlessly—what should we do?"
The Red Dragon beside him asked.
"Take the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman of the Buddha Shrine hostage; if that guy dares to kill the Dragon Tree Buddha, we’ll kill the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman!"
The middle-aged monk chuckled coldly, murder flashing in his eyes.
The next moment.
He suddenly disappeared from the lotus leaf.
And on the massive Buddha Lotus of the Buddha Shrine, a red figure in the Divine King Realm suddenly appeared.
The middle-aged monk extended a large hand, with immense momentum, reaching for the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.
In terms of cultivation base, he was two small levels above the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, who was in the Divine King Realm First Layer.
The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman had no ability to resist, and before the overwhelming hand, she was immediately captured by him.
The Yoga Godlord’s eyes widened with rage, and he shouted, "Why does your Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect act against our Buddhist Sect Saintess?"
"Hmph, do I need to explain? Go back and tell the Saint Old Man to bring the partner of the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman to our Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect to apologize in person!"
The middle-aged monk’s face was cold, and with a wave of his sleeve, he disappeared into the void with the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.
Then, his figure reappeared on the original lotus leaf.
The void rippled.
The Oracle Buddha Ancestor, hands behind his back, walked over with a gloomy expression.
"Oracle Buddha Ancestor, what do you intend to do?"
The middle-aged monk frowned, his gaze as sharp as a blade.
Although the Jade Buddha Sect was powerful, their Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect had deep foundations and did not fear them. If the Oracle Buddha Ancestor dared to act, he would make the Jade Buddha Sect pay a heavy price.
"The Yinfuti given to my Jade Buddha Sect by the Eternal Divine Hall, although the root essence of the Buddha Flame, has been fused by the Dragon Tree Buddha—shouldn’t your Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect give me an explanation?"
The Oracle Buddha Ancestor said gloomily.
"..."
Hearing this, the middle-aged monk’s expression froze.
The Oracle Buddha Ancestor’s words were not without reason; the might of the Eternal Divine Hall was something their Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect dared not provoke.
But standing from the Dragon Tree Buddha’s perspective, this Yinfuti was naturally a root of the Dragon Tree Buddha and should be retrieved.
"After we meet the Dragon Tree Buddha, we will naturally give you an explanation, as well as to the Eternal Divine Hall!"
After thinking for a moment, the middle-aged monk responded calmly.
The Oracle Buddha Ancestor’s face was motionless, silent for a moment, and he nodded slightly.
Now, the situation had become extremely complex; the only Purple Buddha in the Divine Land—the Dragon Tree Buddha—had revived and reclaimed his root. This matter had already exceeded the control of the Jade Buddha Sect.
"Should I... make a report to the Eternal Divine Hall?"
A thought suddenly emerged in the Oracle Buddha Ancestor’s mind.
The next moment.
He suppressed the thought.
The Eternal Divine Hall was very mysterious, like a Divine Dragon that is seen in part but never in full—he didn’t know where the Eternal Divine Hall was to report even if he wanted to.
"Let’s go!"
Suddenly, the middle-aged monk shouted, sweeping up a light and leaving the Jade Buddha Cave Sky with the Red Dragon and others.
The Yoga Godlord clenched his fists, full of hatred: "Let’s hurry back and report to the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor!"
"Yes!"
The other disciples of the Buddha Shrine, their faces filled with grief and anger, responded in unison.
The people from the Buddha Shrine also left the Jade Buddha Cave Sky.
The Oracle Buddha Ancestor did not stop them.
The Buddha Shrine was very strong, that much was beyond doubt.
Now, with the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman taken by the Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect, there was no need for their Jade Buddha Sect to add insult to injury on those disciples of the Buddha Shrine.
Thinking of this, the Oracle Buddha Ancestor glanced again at the formation that had been broken with a large hole, feeling inexplicably annoyed.
"Everyone..."
The Oracle Buddha Ancestor looked around, gazing at the powerhouses of all the Buddha Sect forces, and said calmly: "This Grand Assembly of All Buddhas in the Jade Buddha Sect was supposed to start and end pleasantly, but no one expected such a significant upheaval! Now, there is no point in holding this assembly anymore—everyone, disperse..."
Hearing these words, the numerous God King Realm powerhouses on the lotus leaves exchanged glances.
The air above the lake was incredibly silent.
"Very well!"
A powerhouse in the God King Realm sighed, leading his sect’s disciples away from the Nine-leaf Buddha Lotus instantly.
The other major sects also began to leave.
This lake soon emptied out.
Once these powerful forces left the Jade Buddha Cave Sky, the cultivators of smaller forces outside could no longer stay either, so they also left the Jade Buddha Cave Sky.
Originally grand, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty assembly ended so bleakly.
...
Above the Land of Thousands of Buddhas, a purple light swiftly tore through the void.
It was none other than the fleeing Dragon Tree Buddha.
"Who on earth is this guy? How can he be so powerful?"
While fleeing, the Dragon Tree Buddha pondered over the origins of Ye Yun.
The Infinite Light Buddha Lord had sent a wisp of his divine spirit to the Divine Land, at a great cost.
The energy of this wisp of purple light, when combined with the original physical body, restored its realm to a not-so-high level.
Even merging with the Buddha Flame Root made his realm ascend by another level, and his body became even stronger—yet to his shock, it was still unable to defeat Ye Yun.
The opponent’s swordsmanship was terrifyingly powerful.
As terrifying as the swordsmanship of the black figure that severed his body millions of years ago.
"To defeat this man, I must reclaim all the clones of the Buddha Flame Root..."
A thought suddenly emerged in the Dragon Tree Buddha’s mind.
