The Buddha Guai's Origin! Immortal Technique Heavenly Face, Old Deng Seeks Spirit Transmutation

With the complete demise of the Devil Venerable Moluo, Demon Fall, and the annihilation of his divine power, the ancient Demon Soul Temple, nestled deep in the mountains of the Western Regions, also began to tremble violently.

Inside the Demon Aid Hall temple, the Black Lotus Platform beneath the Buddha, who sat with his back to all living beings and was entirely purple-gold, suddenly trembled violently and cracked inch by inch, completely dissipating a wisp of blessing.

The eighteen Arhats facing the wall on both sides of the Buddha Hall also shone brightly and trembled slightly.

"A child destined for longevity!!"

The eerie, half-smiling expression on the face of the Purple Gold Buddha was gone; now it was filled with rage, radiating a terrifying and awe-inspiring spiritual power.

He formed a hand seal with one hand, held a white whisk in the other, and held a red cinnabar in his mouth. He suddenly stood up.

Boom--

The entire ceiling of the Buddhist hall suddenly exploded into dust, and the incense table turned to ashes.

The six-zhang-tall Buddha statue suddenly soared into the sky, overlapping with a figure in the void holding a Buddhist scripture upside down, exuding a chilling and awe-inspiring spiritual power, unorthodox and eerie.

"Amitabha!"

Just then, a calm and majestic Buddhist chant came from the eastern peak of this deep mountain.

Accompanying the chanting of the Buddha's name was a powerful Buddhist and Buddhist Way force that radiated outwards like golden rays of light. Like a mountain breeze sweeping across the hills, it slowly expanded, forming beams of light of varying thicknesses. This immense power and majestic Buddhist energy created a formidable barrier, enveloping all directions and shrouding the ancient temple deep in the mountains.

"Living Buddha, you have obstructed me in every way. Do not forget that it was I who spared you in the past, which is why you have survived to this day."

The figure standing proudly in mid-air gave a cold shout. Its appearance was seven parts similar to Mo Luo, and eight parts similar to the wrathful Buddha statue overlapping behind it. It was none other than Buddha Guai.

"Excellent, excellent, Buddha is merciful."

The one who spared this Buddha was neither you nor the demon, but the former Ghost Emperor Yuan, and your kind thoughts and benevolent soul.

"Buddha Guai, the bet you made with this old monk years ago has come to an end. Why do you still cling to your delusions and bring about such a catastrophe?"

A face as bright as a brazier appeared atop the Dongfang mountain.

The Buddha's face was solemn and dignified, with its eyes lowered and closed so that only a sliver of light remained, revealing glimpses of its bright and intelligent eyes.

The sun behind seemed to become its halo, its golden radiance reflecting off the Red Cloud in the sky, dazzling and awe-inspiring.

"The bet you made back then was entirely your own wishful thinking, Buddha. You made the promise yourself, but I never agreed to it. I shouldn't have spared your life back then, otherwise, how could I have ended up in this state?"

The Buddha Guai was as cold as frost, and his figure gradually faded into a watercolor painting. The eerie ghostly aura emanating from his body became even stronger, and his figure transformed into a phantom, suddenly merging into the six-zhang- Purple Gold Buddha body behind him.

Instantly, an incomparably surging aura erupted from his body, with sinister ghostly energy mixed with Buddhist power, forming a strange Daoist force that manifested as a thousand-armed, hundred-legged Buddhist figure, a myriad of forms, seemingly trying to break through the Buddhist power barrier.

The enormous figure of the Living Buddha Venerable radiated dazzling Buddha Light, and more figures gradually appeared from behind the Dongfang mountain peaks, his voice as loud as a bell.

"Back then, Ghost Immortal Yuan was a man of great talent and ambition, strategizing and planning with unparalleled skill. He had already established the Netherworld Immortal Realm, but pitying the souls of Human World who had nowhere to go after death, becoming lonely ghosts, he wanted to reshape the Netherworld Immortal Realm, establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and the Underworld. What an extraordinary figure he was!"

Unfortunately, the Eternal Great Tribulation later arrived, and the five immortals fought each other to obtain the Myriad Mother Qi for their own protection. The ghost immortal was also betrayed and perished by the gods. Buddha Guai, do you still possess even a fraction of the spirit of the ghost immortal of yesteryear? Have you not yet awakened to the truth?

Upon hearing this, the Buddha Guai couldn't help but let out a mocking laugh, his expression a mixture of reminiscence and self-mockery as he said lightly, "Living Buddha, you don't need to flatter yourselves."

Back then, the ghost immortals weren't entirely motivated by pity for mortals; they were actually after resources from both the Human World and the realm of immortals.

He paused, his eyes filled with a ghostly light, "In the past, there were very few Ghost Soul and spirits in the underworld, so ghost immortals set their sights on the Human World, the realm of earthly immortals, and even celestial immortals and gods."

This idea was indeed ambitious, but unfortunately, it was too ambitious and naturally met with resistance from the other four immortals. After being plotted against by the four righteous immortals, the great war of the five immortals also broke out due to the Eternal Great Tribulation.

After the fall of the Ghost Immortal, he turned to cultivate the three paths of Earth, Ghost, and Demon, using the Demon path as his foundation to devour other immortal paths, intending to create the Underworld Continent and rebuild the Netherworld.

"You're mistaken. There is another path, which is the path of Buddhism."

The Living Buddha Venerable revealed half of his body, his hands forming the Vajra Wheel Seal, his fingers bent towards his palm, and he lowered his eyes, saying, "Back then, this old monk wanted to convert a ghost immortal, but he was swallowed whole by it."

Inside its belly, the old monk chanted sutras day and night, and eventually transformed the ghost's good intentions. However, this also caused a divergence among the ghost's Three Souls. The dominant good soul, the Tai Guang, expelled the old monk.

The Three Souls later separated due to disagreements.

The You Jing, carrying the wicked thoughts of a ghost immortal, transformed into a demon, becoming rampant, domineering, easily angered, and bloodthirsty.

Shuang Ling and Tai Guang, carrying their impure thoughts, transform into your Buddha Guai, indecisive, suspicious, and treacherous nature.

There are Seven Souls, each carrying good intentions, residing within the old monk's body.

At this point, the world seemed to fall silent, and time seemed to stand still. The two forces of the Dao seemed to be silently clashing, like good and evil.

The Buddha Guai's face darkened, becoming unfathomable, and he coldly sneered, "Speak! Why are you silent now? You, who have transformed into Living Buddha Venerable by taking the Seven Souls of a ghost immortal and his good intentions, how do you evaluate yourself?"

The Living Buddha Venerable's brow twitched slightly.

A strange light flashed in the Buddha Guai's eyes as he coldly said, "Why don't you let me, the Buddha, judge? The Ghost Immortal was a man of great talent and ambition. After his Three Souls Seven Souls were scattered, he turned to cultivate the four paths of Buddha, Demon, Ghost, and Earth respectively. From then on, he could not distinguish between good and evil and was entangled in all sorts of thoughts."

The Demon's Fall has committed countless atrocities, yet you, who pride yourself on your benevolence, cower in fear, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. You only dare to entangle yourself with my mortal desires, lacking any spirit of sacrifice, and dare not confront the Demon's Fall head-on.

The Buddha's radiant eyes flickered slightly, sensing something amiss. His unwavering Zen mind had been breached by the Buddha's cunning scheme, allowing the intruder to penetrate.

"In my opinion, you are not even as good as the Longevity Dao Lord. Or rather, deep down, you, Living Buddha, are also struggling and conflicted, hoping for the rebirth of the ghost immortal and for the reunion of our Three Souls Seven Souls, right?"

The Buddha Guai continued his incessant chatter, intensifying his attempts to manipulate the mind and spirit.

He is a ghost immortal with mixed thoughts, existing between good and evil. He was deeply converted by the Living Buddha Venerable in the past, but he did not change his ghost immortal nature. Therefore, he deviates from the orthodox path and is the most unpredictable.

At this moment, seeing the cracks appear in the heart of the Living Buddha Venerable, the Great Định Buddha Realm, formed by the boundless and vast power of Buddhist Way, also began to fluctuate, and its weak points revealed flaws.

Buddha Guai suddenly sensed an opportunity had arrived, and the thousand-armed, hundred-legged phantom image formed by the power of Tao behind him suddenly grew exponentially longer.

These phantoms seemed to be supported by some power in the void, transforming into substance and increasing in power, like countless tentacles, fiercely stabbing at the weak points of the tangible Buddhist realm in all directions.

With a deafening roar, the surrounding mountains and ground seemed to shake violently, the trees swayed, and the ground collapsed and trees were destroyed.

This tremor resonated not only with the surrounding mountains and forests, but also with the Zen mind of the Living Buddha Venerable.

The flaw that Buddha Guai keenly grasped was so sharp and fatal that it had already caused a flaw in his seemingly unbreakable and perfect Buddhist heart.

The boundless Buddhist realm suddenly rippled violently, and even cracks appeared in many places.

The Great Định Buddha Realm is experiencing such violent fluctuations that it is on the verge of spiraling out of control.

In an instant, that feeling of space standing still and time frozen shattered.

"Duh!"

The Living Buddha Venerable suddenly uttered a true mantra, like the tolling of a bell in a deep mountain temple, containing the thunderous sound of the Great Dao, and causing ripples to spread outwards.

In an instant, the Buddha Guai groaned, and its thousand-armed, hundred-legged shadow trembled and contracted, its body nearly being forcibly shaken out of the Purple Gold Buddha statue by the thunderous sound.

At this moment, the Living Buddha Venerable's whole body Buddha Light, and the Great Vajra Wheel Mudra changed to have all ten fingers spread out, fingertips touching, palms facing outwards, forming a circle in the middle, becoming the Sun Wheel Mudra.

Boom!--

The sun above his head seemed to shine brightly at the same time, then suddenly it fell down and transformed into a magnificent Buddhist wheel-like Law Treasure, its flames blazing and shaking the void, striking the Buddha Guai fiercely.

"Why haven't you realized your mistake and turned back? Even if you escape your cage today, what will you do then?"

The Buddha Guai figure trembled violently and plummeted downwards, his soul feeling as if it were being scorched and smoking in the blazing sun, suffering unbearable pain.

"I want Human World to perish!"

He suddenly let out a wild roar, ripped off the robe covering the Purple Gold Buddha's body, revealing a ghostly Ghost Body shrouded in eeriness.

Instantly, he seemed to transform from a Buddha into a demon, with a blue face and fangs, ferocious and terrifying. Eighty-one light beads on his body shone like ghostly eyes, spewing out extremely dense, eerie ghostly energy. The chilling aura froze the approaching Great Sun Buddha Wheel inch by inch.

These eighty-one luminous beads seem to connect eighty-one Mustard Seed Realms, containing abundant Dao power.

In that instant, all eighty-one entrances and exits of the Yin Spring scattered Human World trembled violently, emanating terrifying and eerie ghostly energy.

Within the Land of Corruption, the colossal Senluo True Body awoke from his slumber, sensing the High Antiquity ghost immortal's power, his eyes turning crimson.

"You bald thief, though the Demon Lord is dead, the Ghost Immortal is immortal! Today I will plunge the Human World into ruin, devour the souls of all living beings, and rebuild the Netherworld!"

The boundless Buddhist Buddha Light was dimmed, cracks appeared everywhere, and the Great Sun Buddha Wheel was frozen inch by inch by the eighty-one Yin Spring Ghost Pearls.

The Demon Soul Temple was filled with ghostly energy. The Buddha Guai creature sprouted red hairs that seemed to symbolize misfortune from its head, and its hands and feet grew ferocious, sharp claws.

With each step he took, the soil on the ground rapidly transformed into a chilling, yin earth under the influence of the ghostly immortal's power, devouring Life Force and spreading quickly.

"Amitabha!"

The Living Buddha Venerable emanated rings of Buddha Light, his expression compassionate. The Prayer Beads relics before him shone brightly. "If I don't go to hell, who will? To stop this calamity, this old monk has no choice but to emulate the actions of the ancient ghost immortals and swallow you whole, hoping to redeem you."

Within the Shattered Heavenly Immortal Realm.

It took Chen Dengming a great deal of effort to safely transfer from the Human God Hall into the Heavenly Longevity Hall.

Fortunately, the Phoenix Dao Fire had been largely consumed and weakened by the frenzied Heavenly Dao Will during the previous fierce battle, resulting in a significant reduction in its destructive power. This allowed him to rely on the protection of the Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain to leave the Nascent Soul Divine Soul Human God Hall and enter the Heavenly Longevity Hall.

Otherwise, the Nascent Soul Divine Soul would be easily destroyed by the Phoenix Dao Fire.

Upon entering the Heavenly Longevity Hall, Chen Dengming felt as if he were in a safe and peaceful harbor, with a sense of security that even if the sky were to fall, there was nothing to worry about.

The continuous loss of power abruptly ceased, and the loss stopped.

Not only that, but pure Immortal Celestial Dao Power and Immortal Spiritual Energy were projected down from the Dao Stone above the Heavenly Longevity Hall, enveloping his Nascent Soul Divine Soul as if he were bathing in a hot spring, feeling completely comfortable. The power he had lost before was even gradually replenished at this time.

Chen Dengming sensed the aura of the First Ancestor Lu Xiucheng from the rich and powerful Dao power and Immortal Spiritual Energy.

It is very likely that these powers are the foundation left behind by the First Ancestor, a legacy similar to the three volumes of Dao Intent and a celestial technique, which helps the younger generation of the Longevity Sect to grow rapidly.

Chen Dengming had only been bathing in the Immortal Spiritual Energy in the center of the hall for a short while, and most of the Law Power he had lost had already been restored. This was reflected in the panel <Heavenly Immortal Art>, where his proficiency level had increased, and he had escaped the edge of falling from his cultivation level.

He was completely relieved and regained much of his confidence. Only then did he use his magical powers to summon the three volumes of Dao Intent and a celestial technique left behind by the First Ancestor to examine them.

All three volumes of Dao Intent are contained within the Jade Slip. Chen Dengming first unfolded the scroll containing the Daoist techniques.

But the scroll was like a painting, with a few lines of writing on the side. Judging from the handwriting, it seemed to be the work of the First Ancestor, added later. It contained the name of the technique and some cultivation insights.

"This immortal technique was bestowed upon me by the Heavenly Dao in a dream after I accidentally came into contact with the Heaven's Will and witnessed its might."

The immortal technique was nameless. After comprehending it, I combined it with the Heavenly Immortal Way and named it the "Heavenly Face" immortal technique.

After mastering this skill, one can transform into the countenance of the heavens, overlooking the world, awe all things, speak as if they were law, sound as if they were divine might, see as if they were the Eye of the Heavens, and be accompanied by the Heaven's Will. When one is angry, the heavens are angry, sending down thunder and fire; when Heavenly Fire is sad, the heavens weep, sending down wind, frost, rain, and snow.

"The Celestial Heavenly Face Technique? So this immense favor is actually a celestial technique called Heavenly Face."

Chen Dengming's eyes shone brightly, and the enormous face of the First Ancestor appeared in his mind. Anyone who saw that face would have to give it face, as if they had seen the Heavenly Emperor himself.

Looking at the summary of the First Ancestor now, he vaguely guessed that this immortal technique was likely something the First Ancestor himself had come up with.

What do you mean by a dream bestowed by the Heavenly Dao? It was clearly something the First Ancestor realized on his own during his profound cultivation after gaining a deep understanding of the Dao of the Heavenly Immortal Way.

However, since the First Ancestor revered and followed the will of Heaven, it was said to be a gift from Heaven, which doesn't seem to make any sense.

"Having comprehended immortal techniques on his own and being a direct descendant of a lineage, it's no wonder that the First Ancestor could freely use these immortal techniques even when he was at the Spirit Transformation."

Chen Dengming felt moved and admiring, but he still managed to suppress his excitement.

He hasn't reached the Spirit Transformation stage yet, so it's too early for him to learn immortal techniques.

Even if he were to reach the Spirit Transformation stage, based on his current knowledge and experience, learning this Heavenly Face Technique would be difficult; it would require an extremely deep understanding of the Heavenly Immortal Way Dao.

Chen Dengming's gaze fell on the face in the painting.

Suddenly, a powerful aura of heaven rushed towards him, and the features of the face that were originally clear in the painting, resembling the primordial ancestor, gradually became blurred.

Chen Dengming felt a strange sensation in his heart. He focused his Immortal Celestial Dao Power into his eyes and examined the scene closely.

The next instant, he was jolted, his mind buzzed, and his thoughts seemed to have traveled to the world of the painting, placing him under a vast and pristine sky.

The sky, devoid of birds, was infinitely high and distant, its horizon seemingly pregnant with a mass of ochre.

The ochre mass gradually expanded, breaking through the clouds to reveal itself as an eye as bright as the sun, looking down upon the world.

Chen Dengming was deeply shaken; his eyes felt as if they were staring directly at the sun.

The next moment, behind those eyes, white clouds churned, revealing the outline of a magnificent and majestic face, its open mouth like a hole in the sky, its breath stirring up a hurricane.

Close your eyes, it's dark, and where your eyes are closed, there's a trace of the sky.

I opened my eyes to the dawn; the dazzling rosy clouds formed a burning crimson, painting the boundless sky with beautiful rouge.

Boom--

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shattered the clouds and fell from that eye.

Chen Dengming's mind was instantly filled with a deafening roar, like rolling thunder, and he suddenly came to his senses.

Looking again at the immortal scroll before him, the faces within were still blurry and indistinct.

What I just experienced is now vividly clear in my memory.

Chen Dengming's eyes showed deep thought.

"This Heavenly Face Technique contains the Eye of the Heavens, the Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain, and the Heavenly Punishment Power of the Heaven's Mandate Lineage, and perhaps even Heavenly Immortal Way Intent Divine Ability that I do not understand. It seems that if I want to comprehend this technique, I must at least cultivate these Heavenly Immortal Way Intent Divine Ability to a very high level."

Having pondered this, Chen Dengming composed himself, temporarily putting away his immortal techniques, and turned to look at the Heavenly Immortal Way intent recorded in the other three Jade Slip.

A short while later.

Chen Dengming put down the third Jade Slip, his expression grave as he pondered.

These three Jade Slip contain the insights of the First Ancestor into three kinds of Heavenly Immortal Way Intents: the Celestial Longevity Dao Intent concerning the traces of time, the Celestial Will Dao Intent concerning divination and fortune telling, and the Celestial Heaven's Will Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain Dao Intent.

Although there are many records about the Dao Intent Longevity, they are extremely obscure, and he can only understand the surface of them.

He could quickly understand the Dao Intent of Heaven's Will Dao, and could explore, comprehend, and perceive the secrets of Heaven.

He had a profound understanding of the Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain. According to the records of the First Ancestor in the Jade Slip, when the Celestial Dao Intent Heavenly Immortal Dao Domain Divine Ability cultivated to a high level, it could condense Heavenly Net and construct Heavenly Prison.

If he can fully comprehend these three volumes of Dao Intent, he will definitely be able to reproduce the might of the First Ancestor Longevity Dao Lord, and will also be able to quickly learn the Heavenly Face Immortal Technique after entering the Nascent Spirit Transformation.

In that instant, Chen Dengming couldn't help but rediscover the excitement he felt when he first encountered the Immortal Method, and the drive to level up his cultivation proficiency on the panel returned.

But now that he has reached this level, comprehending these Dao Intent is not as simple as in the past when he could improve his Technique Method by performing a Technique Method and rely on practice to master it. Instead, it all depends on his extraordinary comprehension.

By this time, Chen Dengming gradually felt that the panel's effect was weakening.

Despite its ability to extend lifespan through cultivation and advancement of realm, it is still incredibly powerful.

However, it falls short in helping one comprehend profound Dao Intent.

This made him increasingly curious about the origin of the panel.

However, given his current predicament, his immediate priority is to resolve his Physical Body issues and improve his cultivation level before attempting to comprehend any Dao Intent.

"I now only have Nascent Soul Divine Soul left. If it were according to the usual practice in the Cultivation World, I should Body Seizing a young cultivator with exceptional talent and take over his body."

"Since my Nascent Soul is still intact, my Law Power has not been lost. It only requires a period of time for my Nascent Soul to integrate with my Physical Body, and my cultivation will be fully restored."

Chen Dengming felt the Nascent Soul Immortal Spiritual Energy continuously entering his body, and his eyes showed contemplation. "But I am currently in this Heavenly Prison, and there is nowhere to find a suitable body to Body Seizing."

Without control of the Heavenly Longevity and Heavenly Mandate Palaces, I would have difficulty leaving.

Furthermore, Body Seizing another's body is against my conscience unless the other person consents, and it would hinder my spiritual practice in the future.

It would be better to...

Chen Dengming's Nascent Soul breathed in and out Immortal Spiritual Energy, his eyes gleaming, his body shimmering with magnetic light, and his Law Power continuously increasing. He had already made up his mind.

"It would be better to cultivate here using the Immortal Spiritual Energy Spirit Transformation in one go."

For Spirit Transformation cultivator, a drop of blood is enough to regenerate and reshape their body; it's a piece of cake.

Not to mention that my Nascent Soul Divine Soul is still intact. Once I break through to the Spirit Transformation, my Nascent Soul can reshape my Dharma body, and my Primordial Spirit can merge into my Dharma body to become a Dharma God. I will also be reborn and completely transformed!

This decision is made the instant the mind is born.

Chen Dengming then completely calmed down, and felt that his spiritual cultivation had also increased once again.

He slowly closed his eyes, attempting to enter State of Mind, Human Heart Hall.

Boom--

Heavenly Longevity Hall, the mad Heavenly Dao will was slightly stimulated, manifesting streaks of scarlet lightning.

But as the streaks of crimson lightning approached the Heavenly Longevity Hall, they transformed into wisps of Immortal Celestial Dao Power.

Although these Immortal Celestial Dao Power were scarlet and violent, they were no longer a threat.

After a while.

The Human Heart Hall, which originally existed within the Phoenix Dao Fire, suddenly vanished into thin air.

It entered the depths of Chen Dengming's mind, no longer threatening him with assimilation by the mad will of Heavenly Dao.

Winning back the Human Heart Hall is not difficult for Chen Dengming, who is now safe.

This is mainly due to the threat of the mad Heavenly Dao Will, which has been isolated by the Heavenly Longevity Hall, and the power of the Phoenix Dao Fire has been weakened, losing its ability to restrain the Second Palace.

But taking back the Human God Hall would be somewhat difficult for him.

However, with the Human Heart Hall already in his mind and the Heavenly Longevity Hall as a cover, he was able to mobilize the power of the Human Heart Hall and contact Dongfang Huayuan.

With Dongfang Huayuan's control over the Human God Hall, he could probably take Human God Hall.
