Enlightenment Bodhi Tree! (4K)
At Yuntai Peak of Mount Taihua, Chen Yi returned to his sect and explained the events to Lu Changsheng. Lu Changsheng was secretly amazed to learn that Chen Yi had actually suppressed a scorpion demon at the Divine King Realm.
None of his disciples were ordinary.
Chen Yi, the reincarnation of the High Antiquity Buddha, already possessed the strength to defeat God King Realm at the Immortal Emperor Realm. It's unimaginable what level of strength he would reach if he were to recover the complete High Antiquity memories; Chen Yi cultivation might even reach the heavens.
"Memories of my past life are gradually returning, but I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I suddenly don't want to lose my memories of this life."
When Chen Yi met Lu Changsheng, he asked him for advice on his confusion.
"Reincarnation is not a perfect Cultivation Method. You have no connection with your past life, yet you inexplicably gain memories of it. You only need to follow your heart's choice."
Lu Changsheng was not optimistic about the Reincarnation Method created by the High Antiquity Buddhas.
The past life and the present life are more like different people.
"This is a coin; the moment you toss it, you'll know the choice you've made."
Lu Changsheng handed Chen Yi a copper coin.
Chen Yi was stunned for a moment.
Such a momentous decision, decided by an utterly ordinary copper coin?
Chen Yi took the copper coin, which was as light as a feather, and began his cultivation at the summit of Yuntai Peak.
"What can he do? It's all up to Creation."
Lu Changsheng did not interfere much in his Disciple's affairs.
Each disciple has their own destiny.
Lu Changsheng continued to ponder how to use Dantai Meng to farm rewards.
During this period, Lu Changsheng bestowed countless treasures upon Dantai Meng, making her incredibly wealthy.
[Ding! You have taught your Disciple Dantai Meng, the Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method "Divine Void Steps," and have received Thousandfold Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward of the discipleship: the divine-grade third-rank Third-Grade Cultivation Method "Immortal Sojourn Great Void Steps."]
[The Immortal Sojourn Great Void Step: A unique Movement Method created by the High Antiquity Great Expert, True Lord Huaiyuan. Mastering this technique allows one to roam freely in the Void and evade attacks.]
The divine-level Third-Grade Movement Method will be of great help to Lu Changsheng, and can be cultivated as a primary Cultivation Method.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng, Seventeenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, "Seven- Seven-Colored Bell Orchid," and have received Apprentice-Teaching Thousandfold Return Reward: Nineteenth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures, "Nine-Colored Bell Orchid."]
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng Seventeenth Grade Medicinal Pills, "The Myriad Illness Detoxification Pill," and have received a ten- Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward your discipleship: Nineteenth-Grade Medicinal Pills, "The White Lotus Sacred Pill."]
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng the Seventeenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Dragon King Divine Fruit," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward for your discipleship: the Nineteenth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Dragon-Shaped Heavenly Origin Fruit."]
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng, the Nineteenth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Nine-Colored Bell Orchid," and have received Apprentice-Teaching Three-Hundredfold Return Reward: the Twentieth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Fortune Bell Orchid."]
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng the Seventeenth Grade Spirit Fire "Nine-Heavens True Yang Flame," and received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: the Eighteenth Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Limitless True Flame."]
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng the Nineteenth-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Dragon-Shaped Heavenly Origin Fruit," and have received an 88,000-fold return reward for your discipleship: the Twenty-First-Grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures "Origin Soul Sacred Fruit."]
[Ding, you have used up your apprenticeship attempts for today. Please try again tomorrow.]
Lu Changsheng once bestowed a large number of treasures upon Dantai Meng, and this time the system returned a large number of treasures as well.
The White Lotus Sacred Pill can neutralize a large amount of poison, Sha Qi, and other evil substances within the Three Realms.
The Fortune Bell Orchid can change a person's Fortune. Even an unlucky person can become Child of Destiny if they obtain this treasure.
Of course, the higher one's cultivation level, the more complex the Fortune, destiny, and Cause and Effect involved become. This item is an unparalleled treasure for mortals, but its effect is much less for God King Realm powerhouse.
The Limitless True Flame, one of the Spirit Fires in the world, was devoured by Qingyue Immortal Maiden of Jinglong Immortal Temple.
The Origin Soul Sacred Fruit, once consumed, can greatly strengthen the Three Souls and Seven Spirits, Impervious to Ten Thousand Arts and the soul indestructible.
Lu Changsheng put away these treasures.
The Limitless True Flame can be bestowed upon Xiao Fan or Lu Qinglian.
Lu Changsheng seized the opportunity to shower Dantai Meng with gifts, accumulating a considerable amount of treasures during this period.
"Changsheng, come to me."
"Yes."
Lin Xuantong secretly transmitted his voice, and Lu Changsheng arrived at Lin Xuantong Dao Field.
Beside Lin Xuantong was a disciple from the Taihua Sacred Ground, but this disciple had empty eyes and a faint Devil Qi emanating from his body.
Lin Xuantong said, "He was controlled by the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable using Demonic Dao Divine Ability and is relaying the message on his behalf."
Um?
Lu Changsheng immediately understood the cause and effect.
Most likely, it's because Lu Changsheng has kept Dantai Meng arrest for too long, Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable is worried that if this continues, his daughter and this guy's child will be born soon.
The disciple of the Holy Land looked at Lu Changsheng, and Lu Changsheng could see the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable through his empty eyes.
Lu Changsheng was secretly surprised.
The Demonic Dao Lord of Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable's Divine Ability are indeed remarkable, so astonishing that he can even remotely control the disciples of the Holy Land to relay messages.
"Lu Changsheng, I advise you to release my daughter as soon as possible, or don't blame me for being impolite. If you don't come to the Nine Serenities to negotiate within a year, I will forcibly break into Taihua Mountain and kill you."
"..."
It seems that the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable Huanming is so devoted to his daughter that he is willing to force his way into the Taihua Sacred Ground.
Given the strength and personality of the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable, it's entirely possible that he could storm into the Taihua Sacred Ground and forcibly take Dantai Meng away.
"Father!"
Dantai Meng felt a surge of excitement as she gazed upon the Mountains and Rivers Diagram.
She finally had a chance to return to the Demon Realm.
"Then let's trade in a year."
Seeing that the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable was losing his composure, Lu Changsheng feared that he would take a dangerous path, so he decided to release Dantai Meng a year later. The Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable would have to pay a price for this.
"Boy, I'm waiting for you."
The Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable could only remotely control the disciples of the Taihua Sacred Ground and could not see Dantai Meng inside the Mountains and Rivers Diagram.
After he finished speaking, a wisp of Devil Qi emerged from the body of the disciple of Taihua Sacred Ground and vanished into nothingness.
The disciple of the Taihua Sacred Ground collapsed to the ground, only regaining consciousness after a long while. "What happened to me? Sacred Lord? Saint?"
Lin Xuantong said, "You were just controlled by the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable."
"Hiss... Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable..."
The disciples of the Taihua Sacred Ground felt a wave of fear wash over them.
He was merely a minor disciple of Earth Immortal, yet he was controlled by the infamous Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable.
Fortunately, given the status and position of the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable, he wouldn't deign to annihilate an ant like him, thus escaping a calamity.
"Are you planning to negotiate with the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable? Are you confident you can succeed?"
Lin Xuantong was worried about Lu Changsheng's safety.
With the strength of the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable, even the ancestors of the Taihua Sacred Ground are no match for him. Lu Changsheng's trip to the Nine Serenities to negotiate with the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable is somewhat dangerous.
"The Immortal Dragon Emperor should be fully prepared, after all, one of the conditions of the exchange is his son."
Lu Changsheng was still confident in the Imperishable Immortal Dynasty's foundation. He even simulated the negotiation process with a Disciple through the system, and there should be no danger in the process.
"This is a great opportunity to stand on my own. If I can emerge unscathed from the negotiations with the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable, the Elders of the Holy Land will surely be even more Qi Ingestion."
Lin Xuantong decided to send Lu Changsheng on this adventure.
"There's still one year left."
Lu Changsheng was actually a little reluctant to let Dantai Meng go in a year, because for a while there would be no God King Realm disciples to reward him.
When bestowing treasures and Cultivation Method upon disciples at the God King Realm, the system is more likely to return high-level treasures.
"What are you up to?"
Hearing Lu Changsheng's words, Dantai Meng thought that Lu Changsheng was going to do something to her.
"Please accept this Bodhi tree."
Lu Changsheng seized the last year of his teaching opportunity and directly bestowed a Bodhi tree upon Dantai Meng.
This Bodhi tree is one of the treasures that Lu Changsheng found in the Azure Emperor's Mausoleum.
Legend has it that the High Antiquity Buddhas attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, thus the Bodhi tree is believed to increase the chances of sudden enlightenment.
"..."
Dantai Meng of obtaining a Bodhi tree, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Why did Lu Changsheng give her a Bodhi tree?
She's the daughter of the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable; how many Bodhi trees could she not want?
"No, this Bodhi tree seems to possess some divine power, but it's too ancient and is almost dead now... Hmph, that's true. If it were a thriving and flourishing Bodhi tree, why would he be willing to give it to me?"
Dantai Meng noticed the unusual nature of this treasure, but unfortunately, the Bodhi tree was nearing the end of its life.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Dantai Meng the "Enlightenment Bodhi Tree" (withered), receiving a reward of Hundred-Millionfold Return the amount of the discipleship reward: "Enlightenment Bodhi Tree" (one hundred million years).]
After giving the dying Bodhi tree to Dantai Meng, the system rewarded her with a Bodhi tree that was only 100 million years old!
One hundred million years is still very young for the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree that attained enlightenment!
"The Bodhi tree found inside the Azure Emperor's Mausoleum is actually the legendary Enlightenment Bodhi Tree used by the High Antiquity Buddha to attain enlightenment. It's truly unbelievable. The Azure Emperor is indeed worthy of his Azure Emperor; such a treasure even exists within his Azure Emperor's Mausoleum."
Lu Changsheng had read about this heavenly materials and earthly treasures in High Antiquity books.
Like the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree, the Mountain-Suppressing Treasure of the Taihua Sacred Ground, the Enlightenment Tea Tree also has the effect of enlightenment.
In comparison, the Enlightenment Tea Tree of Taihua Sacred Ground is even rarer, because Enlightenment Tea is suitable for Xiuzhenzhe cultivate various Great Daos, while the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree is only suitable for the Buddhist Sect cultivators.
In High Antiquity times, almost every highly High Antiquity Buddha possessed an Enlightenment Bodhi Tree for enlightenment and would meditate and cultivate under it.
It can be said that the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree was an essential treasure for the High Antiquity Buddha.
Lu Changsheng has the Enlightenment Tea, so he doesn't need the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree. Among his disciples, only Chen Yi is a Buddhist Sect Xiuzhenzhe, so giving it to Chen Yi is the most suitable choice.
Lu Changsheng estimated that there was probably no superior treasure that could replace this thing, after all, the High Antiquity Buddhas also used such treasures.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng directly bestowed it upon Chen Yi.
To be precise, Lu Changsheng transplanted the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree to the summit of Yuntai Peak.
In this way, Yuntai Peak becomes an even more Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land.
Even in today's Buddhist Sect Holy Land —such as Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple and Sumeru Sacred Land —there are not many Enlightenment Bodhi Tree.
Chen Yi sat in meditation under the Bodhi tree, his whole body seemingly petrified, motionless, in the process of enlightenment.
Despite the wind and rain, the growth of grass and trees, and the alighting of birds, Chen Yi remained unmoved.
"Senior Sister, Senior Sister, has our junior brother passed away?"
Seeing that Chen Yi seemed to have lost his breath, Ning Qianqian feared that her junior brother Qi Deviation and was about to pass away.
"Let's go take a look."
Lu Qinglian was also unsure, because Chen Yi's presence was fading.
"If you don't want him to Qi Deviation, I advise you not to disturb him."
Yun Qianyue stopped the two reckless individuals.
She had met many High Antiquity Buddhas and knew that people in the Buddhist Sect placed even greater emphasis on sudden enlightenment.
Now, Chen Yi is meditating under the Bodhi tree, seemingly lifeless, but he is undergoing a transformation, living towards death.
This was a crucial moment for him.
"We didn't expect our junior sister to know so much; we were reckless."
Lu Qinglian and Ning Qianqian dared not disturb Chen Yi, who was in a state of enlightenment, for fear that Qi Deviation.
"..."
Although Yun Qianyue Resurrection from the Dead, she was still one of the High Antiquity powerhouses, and it was rather awkward for two juniors to call her "Junior Sister."
Unfortunately, within the Three Realms, sects emphasize seniority and hierarchy. She was Lu Changsheng's last disciple, making her his junior sister.
"She's right. This is a crucial moment for your junior brother's enlightenment; he must not be disturbed. Lian, you will accompany me to the Nine Nether Lands in a year."
Lu Changsheng needs to take on a Disciple in order to predict good and bad fortune.
"No problem."
Lu Qinglian nodded repeatedly when she heard that she could go down the mountain for another adventure.
Lu Changsheng looked at Yun Qianyue, wondering if Yun Qianyue and the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable were old acquaintances.
When the Heavenly Sect still existed, the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable had already been famous for a long time. Theoretically, Yun Qianyue and the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable should have had some interaction.
"I cannot go, otherwise the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable will know that I have been Resurrection from the Dead."
Yun Qianyue shook her head; she indeed recognized the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable.
How did you compare to the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable before?
"It's hard to say."
The simple three words, "Yun Qianyue," deeply shocked Lu Changsheng.
From what Yun Qianyue meant, at her peak, she could fight against the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable?
The Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable is a powerful Demonic Dao cultivator who survived from Remote Antiquity, while Yun Qianyue is Peerless Genius cultivated by the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect in High Antiquity times. Unexpectedly, Yun Qianyue actually has the strength to rival the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable.
Spring came and autumn went, Chen Yi stayed under the Enlightenment Bodhi Tree for a year, but there was still no movement. His body was even covered with moss, and he seemed to have passed away peacefully.
"It seems his enlightenment this time is extraordinary; he won't emerge from seclusion for at least three to five years. I'll be leaving Yuntai Peak for a while; please keep an eye on the cave abode."
Lu Changsheng left his Eldest Disciple Lin Qingzhi, to guard Yuntai Peak, and then set off for the Nine Nether Lands to negotiate with the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable.
The Eldest Princess was also traveling with them.
Lu Changsheng's greatest reliance is the Immortal Dragon Emperor.
Given the status and identity of the Immortal Dragon Emperor, he should not break his promise and take responsibility for confronting the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable to prevent the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable from eliminating these juniors.
With the Eldest Princess by his side, the Immortal Dragon Emperor will definitely work hard.
"Finally, I can go back... Strange, why do I feel a little reluctant to leave?"
Dantai Meng felt inexplicably reluctant to part with it.
Inside the Mountains and Rivers Diagram, Lu Changsheng would bestow treasures upon her every day, and she was so happy that she almost forgot about home.
No, no, Dantai Meng, you are the daughter of the Demon Venerable, you are worldly-wise and experienced. How can you develop feelings for someone just because of a little favor?
"Wait till I get back to the Demon Realm, I'll make you pay! Hmph!"
Dantai Meng has reverted to her previous style.
