Su Bai had naturally done some research on the background of this newly appointed "Wutian Buddha" before setting out.
Among the several Jade Slips that Celestial Master Xuanyuan Ningxin had personally given him before his departure was the most core and secret intelligence Great Qian had gathered on this demon.
According to Xuanyuan Ningxin, the mission to the Buddhist Kingdom concerned the dignity of the nation and the safety of the Eldest Princess. It was no child's play.
Yan Ling could fool around as she pleased, but Su Bai had to understand every potential risk inside and out.
The intelligence Xuanyuan Ningxin had provided was far more thorough and alarming than what Po Jun knew.
What Po Jun had described was merely the troublesome facade Wutian Buddha had shown to the outside world.
The truly crucial information was that Wutian Buddha was said to be a great demon who had failed in his attempt to break into the Void Refining realm, yet had preserved his life by chance and been reborn through cultivation by means of some bizarre secret art.
Moreover, this "rebirth through cultivation" did not seem to be an ordinary change of cultivation path. There appeared to be some hidden truth behind it.
That was also the fundamental reason his temperament had become so violent, erratic, and unfathomable.
To put it in terms Su Bai could understand more easily, this demon's divine soul seemed somewhat strange, with an obvious "multiple personality disorder."
There might be several consciousnesses coexisting within his body.
As for what Wutian Buddha himself was truly like, Su Bai would likely have to see him in person and rely on his Primordial Spirit perception, which far exceeded those of the same rank, to glimpse one or two clues.
