A Thought Makes a Buddha, a Thought Makes a Devil

"Ping~"

After the "surveillance footage" finished playing, the scene in front of Xiao Lin's eyes also shattered.

Then, the shattered images rushed into Xiao Lin's body all at once.

Well, it seems the Bodhi Ancient Tree found it too troublesome and directly stuffed the favors it wanted Xiao Lin to do into his mind in the form of a flood of information.

Needless to say, the Bodhi Ancient Tree hoped that Xiao Lin would help it cleanse the evil thoughts of the Dou Emperor within its body.

As for what Xiao Lin needs to do with the Bodhi Ancient Tree, it's actually quite simple; he just needs to do what Xiao Yan did in the Original Work.

After all, Xiao Lin also possesses Heavenly Flames.

Moreover, Xiao Yan has now cultivated the Three Thousand Burning Flames to the point where its power is no less than that of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame.

Naturally, Xiao Lin could learn from Xiao Yan's method in the Original Work and help the Bodhi Ancient Tree solve its problems.

"I feel like doing this is a bit too extravagant..."

After the Bodhi Ancient Tree told Xiao Lin what he needed to do to help it, Xiao Lin fell silent.

Furthermore, he hasn't taken any immediate action yet.

"What's wrong?"

Finally, seeing that Xiao Lin remained unmoved, the Bodhi Ancient Tree spoke.

Because Xiao Lin is currently inside the Bodhi Ancient Tree, the other party's voice resounds directly in his mind.

"No, it's nothing, Bodhi Ancient Tree. I just wanted to ask, is this the only way?"

After shaking his head, Xiao Lin couldn't help but ask.

"... This is indeed the only solution I can think of right now."

The Bodhi Ancient Tree answered truthfully.

As for the method mentioned by the Bodhi Ancient Tree, it was that it would provide Bodhi Seeds, and Xiao Lin would use Heavenly Flames to refine them into pure energy. Then, it would use this pure energy to cleanse the evil thoughts of the Dou Emperor within its body.

In this way, as long as it can provide enough Bodhi Seeds, it can completely eliminate the evil thoughts of the Dou Emperor within the body!

At that time, its evil intentions will cease to exist.

This is also the method used by Xiao Yan in the Original Work.

The Bodhi Ancient Tree appears once every thousand years, and each time it appears, it releases a portion of its Bodhi Seeds to those who have withstood the test.

As for the more precious Bodhi Heart, it depends on whether or not it will be given away.

Then there's the enlightenment of Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation under the Bodhi Tree, an opportunity that has been granted to only a handful of people throughout history.

Leaving aside the latter two, the first one, the Bodhi Seeds, will naturally not all be distributed; the Bodhi Ancient Tree itself will retain some.

Over the years, the Bodhi Ancient Tree has stored countless Bodhi Seeds.

In any case, according to its own calculations, it should be more than enough to erase the evil thoughts of the Dou Emperor from its body.

As for this method, even if the Bodhi Ancient Tree didn't mention it, Xiao Lin knew it from the Original Work.

However, Xiao Lin thought that his arrival as a so-called "Wise One" would provide a different solution for the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

Suddenly realizing he wasn't that important to Xiao Lin, wasn't he a little depressed?

After all, through the Original Work, Xiao Lin knew that even without him, Xiao Yan would be able to solve the problem of the Bodhi Ancient Tree after his arrival.

His arrival, at most, merely awakened the Bodhi Ancient Tree's benevolent intentions ahead of time.

This doesn't really mean much.

"Don't worry about the Bodhi Seeds. Over the years, I have accumulated a considerable number of Bodhi Seeds. I think that after I have solved my problems with Bodhi Seeds, I will still have some left over."

"If you need it at that time, I can give it all to you..."

Thinking that Xiao Lin was worried about the insufficient number of Bodhi Seeds, the Bodhi Ancient Tree spoke again at this moment.

"Sigh~"

Xiao Lin, realizing that the Bodhi Ancient Tree had misunderstood, sighed.

Then, Xiao Lin continued, "I'm not worried about that; I just want to find a better way to solve your problem."

If he were to use the old methods from the Original Work, Xiao Lin felt he would lose face.

They were lucky enough to see a glimpse of the future, so I'm here to help them.

Whether he's there or not makes no difference!

Anyone would be upset, right?

"Is... this possible?"

The Bodhi Ancient Tree spoke with a hint of confusion.

In any case, it couldn't think of a better way.

Meanwhile, Xiao Lin, whose mind had been racing ever since the Bodhi Ancient Tree mentioned the matter, actually came up with another method!

Of course, his solution may not be feasible, but if successful, it could not only eliminate the problems of the Bodhi Ancient Tree, but also bring it additional benefits!

In the Original Work, it is only described that Xiao Yan helped the Bodhi Ancient Tree clear the evil thoughts of the Dou Emperor within its body, but it is not described that after clearing the evil thoughts of the Dou Emperor within its body, it immediately recovered to its peak condition.

It seems that the ancient Bodhi Ancient Tree will need time to gradually recover to its peak condition.

However, if Xiao Lin's method works, it might not immediately restore the Bodhi Ancient Tree to its peak, but it could at least shorten the time considerably!

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin explained his method to the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

After listening to Xiao Lin's method, the Bodhi Ancient Tree fell into deep thought.

Clearly, he was calculating the feasibility of the method Xiao Lin had proposed.

However, it must be said that Xiao Lin's method is indeed not guaranteed. If something unexpected happens, who knows what will happen?

Therefore, the Bodhi Ancient Tree is also quite cautious and dares not draw any conclusions for the time being.

However, it could also sense the benefits that Xiao Lin's method would bring it if it succeeded.

"Bodhi Ancient Tree, have you ever heard the saying, 'One thought can make you a Buddha, and another a demon'?"

Seeing that the Bodhi Ancient Tree was still unable to make up its mind, Xiao Lin asked it again.

There is no Buddha in the Dou Qi Continent, so there is no such saying.

Therefore, Xiao Lin didn't mind using some knowledge from his previous life to persuade (or deceive) the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

As Xiao Lin finished speaking, the Bodhi Ancient Tree seemed to suddenly enter a state of enlightenment.

"One thought can make you a Buddha, one thought can make you a demon... Does this refer to me now? I see. You truly deserve the title of 'Wise One.' I deeply admire the wisdom you have displayed!"

Then let's proceed as you suggested!

Xiao Lin's suggestion made the Bodhi Ancient Tree feel as if it had suddenly "understood something."

Therefore, it once again began to refer to Xiao Lin as "the Wise One," even using honorifics!

This made Xiao Lin feel embarrassed.

In fact, he had no idea what the Bodhi Ancient Tree had realized, or what it admired about him.

He casually quoted a famous Buddhist saying from his past life, and the ancient Bodhi Ancient Tree was completely convinced and prostrated itself before him...

Xiao Lin had previously criticized the Bodhi Ancient Tree as a charlatan, but now he realized he also had the potential to be one!

This is truly a cause for celebration!
