Chapter 649: Lure and Fishing
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ever since he had eaten the white elephant, Zhou Feng had been walking in this desert.
It was clearly the legendary gathering place of all spirits, but an endless stretch of desert surrounded it.
!!
This was somewhat different from the information he had received.
The rolling yellow sand was also filled with a Buddhist light and power of will, wanting to assimilate him bit by bit.
Moreover, the anticipated revenge did not come.
Back then, Bai Xiang had shouted that he could not escape. This was the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom.
However, more than 10 days had passed, and Zhou Feng did not even see a single living creature.
It was just that the surrounding environment was becoming worse and worse. The desert, the scorching sun, the humidity, and other factors were constantly destroying his will.
Fortunately, he was a cultivator. He had already abstained from grain a long time ago and could survive only by relying on Spiritual Qi. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to survive in such a place.
“Is there still no one?”
Zhou Feng didn’t know how far he had walked, but he still didn’t meet any living beings.
After saying that, he lay down on the yellow sand.
‘Ascendance technique! Activate!’
After experiencing countless ascension attempts, he had long become very familiar with them.
However, he wasn’t in a hurry to break through. The reason was that there weren’t many benefits to breaking through to the Ascendance realm now.
He needed to train his physical body and soul to the extreme and finally ascend together.
Zhou Feng had meditated for so long. Although no one taught him, he understood it.
The so-called ascendance was actually a process of advancement, a process of advancing from a mortal to another level.
Such a process seemed not to happen many times in his life.
Naturally, Zhou Feng did not want to waste this opportunity.
Lying in the yellow sand, he began his cultivation for the day again.
Suddenly, waves of Buddhist light slowly shone down.
Waves of Zen singing sounded as if one could hear countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas chanting.
“Eh?”
Such a strange phenomenon naturally attracted Zhou Feng’s attention. However, his body did not move, and he continued to lie in the yellow sand.
Not far away, there was actually a small oasis. There was nothing else in the oasis, only a well and a tree.
The tree seemed to grow luxuriously in the rolling yellow sand, and the crown of the tree was constantly emitting a gentle Buddhist light.
“Bodhi tree?”
When he saw the tree, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
Zhou Feng had never seen a Bodhi tree before, but he immediately recognized it.
‘Bodhi tree? Right here?’
Lying in the yellow sand, he didn’t move, even though the Bodhi tree in front of him was very noticeable.
Now was the time for cultivation, so it was better to continue lying down.
Ever since he entered Central Plains, Zhou Feng’s personality had changed quite a bit.
In short, his personality had matured, he was no longer as impatient as before, and he would set another goal after completing one goal.
Previously, he was impatient and searched for quick success instead of cultivating step by step. He always wanted to take a shortcut.
Before this, especially when he was in the Tri-Gu Sect, he wanted to increase his strength first and then slowly solve the hidden problems in his body.
Developing before managing was his previous style.
Now, he was not that anxious.
Probably because he had become strong enough, the problem of survival was no longer urgent.
Thus, Zhou Feng lay in the yellow sand for a few days.
The Bodhi tree beside him did not change at all. It was still emitting a faint Buddhist light.
Every night, the faint sound of chanting would disappear as if it wanted to rest.
Another day passed.
Zhou Feng finally got up from the yellow sand.
The transformation of his physique and soul was still very slow.
The mysterious matter provided by the white elephant seemed to have been used up. It was now extremely difficult to advance.
It was also because of this that he slowly got up.
“Bodhi tree… This should be the means of Mahayana Buddhism!”
From the limited information, it could be known that this place was called the Supreme Buddhist Kingdom, and it was controlled by Mahayana Buddhism.
This Bodhi tree must be the means of Mahayana Buddhism. Otherwise, why would there be such a Bodhi tree in this desert?
As he approached the Bodhi Tree, the Bodhi tree actually began to shake continuously. The branches and leaves collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
Then, a Bodhi fruit fell from the tree.
Zhou Feng subconsciously caught the fruit.
This Bodhi fruit gave people a warm and smooth feeling. There was actually a thin Buddha carved on it.
Suddenly, Buddhist light surged, and countless Buddhist voices began to pour into his mind.
“The Buddha’s inheritance? The seed of Buddha?”
Zhou Feng rejected this so-called Buddha’s inheritance. The Bodhi fruit in his hand immediately lost its luster and became dry and cracked.
It turned out that this Bodhi tree was the tree of inheritance.
As long as one entered the Supreme Buddha Kingdom, one would have the chance to encounter such a tree of inheritance and obtain the Buddha’s inheritance from it.
Moreover, one could reject the Buddha’s inheritance or accept it completely.
Just like the saying, “If one is fated to be Buddha, one can obtain any Buddhist inheritance as long as one is fated.”.
There was also a chance for one of the eight supreme divine abilities. All of these were related to the word ‘fate’.
“I am fated to be Buddha?”
Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and raised his head to take a look. He discovered that countless Bodhi fruits were hanging on this Bodhi tree.
He absolutely did not believe that he was not fated with Buddha.
Not long ago, he had killed a divine beast of the Buddhist sect.
A gentle breeze blew past, and the Bodhi tree branches in front of him collided with each other again.
There was nothing unusual except for the gentle Buddhist light as usual.
“I’d like to see if this Buddha’s inheritance is powerful.”
Zhou Feng did not reject the Buddha’s inheritance anymore.
Immediately, the somewhat cracked Bodhi fruit in his hand began to emit light.
‘Evil Suppression!? This is actually the Evil Suppression Ability?’
Wasn’t this the incomplete divine ability he had obtained from Bai Xiang? Why was it giving him a complete version now?
Other than that, various Buddhist doctrines began to be indoctrinated into his mind.
Countless Zen chants enveloped him, various Buddhist scriptures surged out, and boundless golden light emerged from the ground.
The affirmation almost converted him to his original position.
To Zhou Feng, the sounds of joining Buddhism kept ringing in his ears.
This kind of sound was not violent, and it was difficult to shake his mind.
In fact, when he felt bored, the sound would automatically disappear.
And once the boredom disappeared, the sound would reappear.
“I knew it…”
Zhou Feng frowned slightly.
As expected, there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If one wanted something, one had to pay a price.
However, he felt that the voice would slowly disappear with the passage of time.
In other words, he only needed to wait for some period before the price of accepting the Buddha’s inheritance would slowly disappear.
However, at this moment, another Bodhi fruit fell.
In addition, this Bodhi fruit was even fuller than the previous one. The Buddha engraved on it was holding a vajra pestle in his hand.
“Are they so obvious with the lure of the fish?”
Zhou Feng couldn’t believe the Bodhi tree’s intention to bait and fish was so obvious.
He had just obtained the inheritance from one Bodhi fruit, and now another Bodhi fruit fell from it.
