  Qin Wentian walked through the Pureland of Bliss. Holy light would shimmer in and out of existence, illuminating the mortal world. The power of the Buddhist Sect was truly strong. This western world had an aura of transcendence to it, like it wasn’t stained by mortal dust.

  Also, Qin Wentian discovered a strange phenomenon. It felt like there was an invisible energy that continuously flowed towards a direction. And, that direction was where the western paradise was located.

  Qin Wentian didn’t directly head towards the western paradise. He wasn’t so self-confident that he felt he could barge into the western paradise alone and fight against the entire Buddhist Sect. Even the Grim Reaper didn’t feel certainty that he could do it. If not, he wouldn’t merely have come here to threaten them. The current Qin Wentian might already be sufficiently powerful but even so, there was still quite a distance between him and that crazy old freak.

  He came to the western world. He had no choice but to come. Little Ye has already died while Fan Le and Xuan Xin became something akin to zombies. Although he wanted revenge for this, he could afford to wait a little. If not, once he died, who would take revenge? Who would save Fan Le and Xuan Xin? What would his family do?

  But now, he had no choice but to come here. Because, Qinxin’s fate might be influenced by the Karma Buddha, she might face the danger of dying anytime. Hence, he could only take the risk and come to the western world, to this Pureland of Bliss.

  If he wanted to enter the western paradise, he only had a single solution. He had to find an esteemed reverend in a Buddhist Sect here in the Pureland of Bliss that would give him the recommendation needed to enter.

  In that case, should he directly display overwhelming strength to gain that recommendation? This path doesn’t seem feasible. If this is the case, he would only attract unwanted attention from the monks in the western paradise.

  Other than this, there seemed to be only one other path remaining. For juniors in the Buddhist Sect with outstanding talent, they had a chance to gain a recommendation and could enter the western paradise to seek the dao.

  The Bodhi Temple was one of the Buddhist Sects in the Pureland of Bliss. They had consummate knowledge about the buddha path and was widely respected by people in the Pureland of Bliss. The monks in the Bodhi Temple were all monks that believed in the concept of suffering. In fact, there were even some buddha lords in the western paradise that originated from the Bodhi Temple. Hence, this particular Buddhist Temple was extremely famous.

  The old monk that was the abbot of the Bodhi Temple had very high attainments in the buddha dao. He was extremely kind and this was something everyone knew about. Countless people were impressed by him. If it wasn’t for the fact that the old monk’s talent in cultivation was slightly inferior, he would have already become a heavenly deity in the western paradise.

  Today, a handsome young man came to the Bodhi Temple. He was clad in black and his hair draped his shoulders. He exuded an aura of extraordinariness and had a cultivation absent at the world overlord realm.

  A monk of the Bodhi Temple came out. When he saw this young man, the monk asked, “Benefactor, what is your purpose in coming here?”


  “I came here to seek the buddhist path. May I request a meeting with the Bodhi Abbot?” That young man calmly asked. His gaze was extremely deep and shone like stars in the sky. This young man was none other than Qin Wentian. He naturally didn’t use his original appearance and he had even sealed his cultivation base, causing him to appear like an ordinary world overlord.

  “Abbot is extremely busy throughout the day, there are countless people who come here to seek the buddhist path. I’m afraid Abbot wouldn’t have time to meet with benefactor.” The monk slowly spoke.

  “If he doesn’t see me, I will kill everyone who is here to seek the buddhist path.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke, his tone was cold, brimming with an immense baleful aura. The monk before him pressed his palms together after he heard that as he chanted buddhic verses. After that, the melody of buddhic chants rang out through the air, as its energy fluctuations bored down on Qin Wentian. This buddha melody didn’t contain any attack power, it was to calm one’s mental state and heart down. The monk wanted to neutralize the baleful aura from Qin Wentian.

  “Benefactor, you are steeped in vengeance. This place is a holy ground of the buddhist path, you should return to where you came from.” The monk spoke.

  “I heard that the Bodhi Abbot has a very kind personality and has the intentions to deliver the masses from evil. Could he really be so heartless as to let me kill everyone who came here to seek the buddhist path and refuses to see me?” Qin Wentian coldly continued. Although there was a hint of threat in his voice, he naturally wouldn’t do so. It was just that people of this world all said that the Bodhi Abbot was a saint, he did many acts of kindness and accumulated virtue. Hence, he wanted to use this opportunity to take a look and see whether if the Bodhi Abbot was truly a merciful person or just another hypocrite.

  “In the Pureland of Bliss, if benefactor touches upon the killing sin, there would naturally be people who would appear to deliver you.” The monk calmly stated.

  “After I killed everyone, the sin has already manifested. Those who died have already died, even if someone came to deal with me after that, what’s the point?” Qin Wentian counter-asked. “Does the so-called quote ‘Buddha is merciful,’ only amount to this much?”


  The eyes of the monk flashed as he looked at Qin Wentian. He shook his head slightly but at this moment, within the ancient temple, a voice rang out. “Benefactor, please enter the temple.”


  The monk blocking his way stepped aside after hearing this. He closed his eyes and had his palms pressed together. Qin Wentian stepped out and entered the ancient temple.

  There was no treasure light within the temple, everything looked very simple. The atmosphere was quiet, the bell here was made from bronze and the stone pavilion contained traces of time. Qin Wentian walked through the corridor and entered a simple and somewhat crude room. There was no statue of a buddha here, there was only a simple praying mat and a buddha lamp. A monk could be seen seated on the mat, his appearance was extremely old, like the light of his life was about to wink out at any moment.

  “Benefactor, you radiate a strong baleful aura.” That monk closed his eyes and spoke. Qin Wentian merely smiled, “Since abbot is willing to meet with me, the baleful aura has naturally dispersed.”


  His aura gradually calmed down.

  However, the Bodhi Abbot shook his head. “The baleful aura cannot be intentionally concealed. It is more of an intent then an external form, it manifests from within not without. As long as your heart is filled with vengeance, baleful aura would naturally be birthed.”


  “Abbot is wise.” Qin Wentian praised, from the bottom of his heart. He sat on the opposite of the abbot as he casually spoke, “I’ve always felt that my attainments in the buddha path are extremely profound but I didn’t have the fate to meet with a true buddha. Should I feel vengeance in my heart?”


  “If your attainment in the buddhist dao is profound, buddha would be in your heart. You can see him anytime.” The Bodhi Abbot replied.

  “But if this is the case, why does every buddhist cultivator in the world wish to enter the western paradise instead of looking at their own heart?” Qin Wentian asked.

  “The buddha path is boundless, there are many top-tier buddha techniques and arts in the western paradise.” The abbot didn’t conceal anything.

  “Since this is the case, I desire to obtain top-tier buddha techniques and arts to better my understanding of the buddha path. Can abbot give me a recommendation to enter the western paradise?” Qin Wentian asked.

  The abbot shook his head. “Benefactor, you didn’t come here for this purpose.”


  “I pursue powerful buddhist arts to increase my understanding of the buddha path. How can you say that I’m not here for this purpose?” Qin Wentian asked again.

  “The buddha path isn’t as simple as one’s strength in buddha arts. Benefactor, you don’t have fate with the buddha path.” The abbot continued to shake his head.

  Qin Wentian glanced at the abbot as he coldly laughed, “Hypocrite.”


  The abbot simply lowered his head. Qin Wentian continued, “For those powerful buddha lords in the western paradise, other than being extremely strong in certain buddha-type energy due to their skill in the powerful buddha arts, they are no different from other ordinary men.”


  “Benefactor’s words are too serious.” The Bodhi Abbot spoke.

  “Buddha says that all lives are equal. The western paradise wishes to absorb the faith of the people of the world. They unified and governed four lower immortal realms and receive the worship of countless people, enjoying the joss flames burned in respect for them. What did they rely on to achieve this?” Qin Wentian continued, “They relied on nothing but powerful buddha arts and techniques. The buddha path is a dao of hypocrisy. If they didn’t have the support of strength, they would be nothing. Abbot, look at you. If all lives are equal, why don’t you head into the western paradise and get the buddha lords to give up their positions to you. I’m very curious what your ending would be.”


  “Benefactor, your words are too extreme.” The abbot calmly replied.

  “Extreme?” Qin Wentian laughed. “Since I came here to ask for a meeting with abbot, I would like to ask abbot a question. Now, there are so many major things happening in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and I’m sure abbot knows a thing or two about it. The evil devil Yue Changkong brings destruction and chaos to the world, it was unknown how many died to him. I believe some of those who died should be buddha cultivators too. With such evil present, as a representative of the buddhist dao that spoke of pursuing kindness, why didn’t the western world act to stop him?”


  “There are countless types of evils in the world, we cannot diminish them all. The thirty-three heavens are too vast. The buddha can only make it so that our western world is freed from evil. Maybe when one day, everyone in the world cultivates the buddha path, their natural alignments would then lean towards kindness. Such evil then wouldn’t exist anymore.” The abbot spoke.

  “What a good ‘everyone in the world cultivates the buddha path.’ If everyone in the world really did so, and if those who want to commit evil still exist, wouldn’t they have a legitimate excuse to do what they want? Satisfying their own desires.” Qin Wentian mocked.

  “Benefactor, please explain.” The abbot spoke.

  Qin Wentian waved his hand and sealed this space. After that he spoke, “Yue Changkong is an incarnation of evil, it is one thing that the western world doesn’t eradicate him. However, they even joined forces with this evil devil. Is this also what the quote ‘buddha path leaning towards kindness’ means?”


  “I don’t understand your meaning.” The abbot shook his head.

  “The Karma Buddha of the western paradise once entered the Heaven Vault. After that, there was a young girl who went out to play, she encountered Yue Changkong and was kidnapped and killed. After that, the parents of this young girl were also badly affected that they lost consciousness completely, entering a zombie-like state. As for the best friend of the young girl, she uses tears to wash her face daily, unable to walk out from the karma linking her and her best friend. Abbot, what do you feel about this matter?” Qin Wentian stared at the Bodhi Abbot as he coldly asked.

  The body of the abbot trembled. His eyes opened for the first time. Although he was old, his eyes were still spirited. He stared at Qin Wentian for a long time before closing his eyes again. He chanted a buddha verse before speaking, “Benefactor Qin came from afar, this monk has neglected my reception of you.”


  “I heard that there’s a buddha path technique that can open the eye of wisdom. You are truly very intelligent.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. “Since you know of my identity, do you feel fear in your heart?”


  The abbot shook his head, he understood Qin Wentian’s meaning. Since Qin Wentian has revealed his identity, the abbot was now in danger.

  Qin Wentian’s eyes glowed with a terrifying light. It was like he opened his heavenly eye and wanted to see through all deceit and illusions. He continued pressing, “Abbot hasn’t replied to my earlier question. What do you feel about this matter?”


  “I cannot see through the reasons behind the buddha lord’s actions.” The abbot shook his head and replied.

  “Is that so? In that case, what about the matter when the western world desires to seize my Heaven Vault and even threatened me? Abbot, what do you feel about that?” Qin Wentian asked again. The abbot truly didn’t know how he should reply.

  “Does abbot know the reason behind the western world wanting to seize the Heaven Vault is because they wanted to unify the entire thirty-three immortal realms, including ruling supreme in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Also, from what I know, this is the instruction given by the godking of the western world. So, is this what the buddhist dao means?” A cold smile appeared on Qin Wentian’s face. He wanted to see how would this esteemed reverend that’s respected by so many people, answer his question.

  When the abbot heard the words ‘godking,’ his body trembled violently. He turned his gaze into the distance and spoke, “There are endless disputes in the world. When has blood ever ceased to flow in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms? If the Buddhist Sect unifies the world, peace would finally be achieved. For the great dao, the western world chose to forsake the minor dao.

  “So it is all for the greater good? What an excellent response. In that case, does this mean that the people of my Heaven Vault can be sacrificed? Even if the western world has to collude with evil, there’s no problems at all because everything is for the greater good, for the sake of achieving peace in the world?” Qin Wentian laughed uproariously. “What is greater love? Lesser love? Monks cannot even love, yet they actually have the qualifications to say that they want to achieve peace because they love the lives of the world? How shameless is that? It is fine if one wanted to pursue their ambitions of becoming the ultimate ruler, but to do so using the pretext of acting with kindness for the greater good? How hypocritical is that? Is this the true face of the western world? If you want to speak about forsaking the minor dao for the major dao, does abbot know that the countless lives lost in the world-destroying battle of Ancient Azure Mystic back then, were all caused by the western world acting in the shadows?”


  The abbot felt his heart trembling as a terrified look actually appeared in his eyes. His heart was trembling, his faith was wavering as well.

  “I don’t want to waste time talking with a hypocrite. Send me to the western paradise.” Qin Wentian stood up as an imposing and powerful aura gushed forth from him.
