Chapter 1494 - 553: My Master Zhou Xuan Above All
Zhou Xuan looked into the eyes of the Green Robed Buddha, wow, they were nothing but clear, with not a trace of impurity.
"Come on, Old Buddha, what happened to that rebellious attitude just now?"
"You’re suddenly so clear, it’s a bit unsettling. Could you revert back for a moment?"
Zhou Xuan found the Green Robed Buddha somewhat ridiculous — what a change of face.
"Master Zhou, I’m new here today, unfamiliar with your divine presence, I apologize profusely."
At this moment, the Green Robed Buddha has no Buddha nature to speak of, his most important possession is already in Zhou Xuan’s grasp.
For someone of God-level like them — what is the most important thing?
Magic Artifact?
No, cultivation disciples in Jing Country do not particularly value the halls with Magic Artifacts, and the Buddhist Sect is not known for wielding Magic Artifacts; they value their Dharma Image.
Divine Status?
Also no, even without Divine Status, the Green Robed Buddha, due to his cultivation in Buddhist Law and Zen, remains a distinguished guest of the Golden Crow Palace, with a status surpassing ordinary God-level beings.
For a Great Buddha like him, the most important thing is "hope."
He has developed extensive connections in the Heavenly Dome through years of effort, his cultivation achievements are numerous, and he diligently performs his Buddhist career daily, all to advance a step forward someday and reach the Heavenly God Level, drawing closer to the Ancient Buddha.
For the Heavenly God Level, he can endure much pain and solitude,
But now,
With his Buddha Heart shattered and the Buddhist Sound silenced, it means his lifelong cultivation halts here with no further progress.
"This is the accumulation of my life’s merits as a Buddha; in one careless moment, the entire game is lost."
Zhou Xuan reclined back on the lounge chair; this time, he wasn’t sitting upright as he did with guests. He crossed his legs casually and said,
"Old Buddha, today we met unexpectedly, and I’m a person who adapts to kindness and detests evil. If you become my enemy, you can’t imagine how vicious my means could be,"
"I’ve already imagined," Green Robed Buddha murmured quietly.
With one careless move, Zhou Xuan directly shattered his Buddha Heart. If this isn’t vicious, what is?
"If you sincerely work for me, not only will I guide you to repair your broken Buddha Heart, but I can also provide unimaginable benefits."
Zhou Xuan opened the folded fan, speaking as if he was basking in a spring breeze.
"Benefits... I’m not greedy," Green Robed Buddha, being the Sky Dome Buddha, although his Buddha Heart is shattered, still carried some pride within.
His words, ostensibly modest, showed no desire for the benefits Zhou Xuan promised, but one could hear between the lines — he did not believe Zhou Xuan could offer anything remarkable.
Elixir, he wasn’t lacking,
Status, he wasn’t lacking either,
The Eternal Life Sect Leader sneered from the side, reminding, "Old Buddha, keep being stubborn now. In my view, you should avoid speaking if you can’t say anything sensible. If you truly provoke Master Zhou to retract his decision, you’ll have no time to cry."
Evidently, he speaks from experience,
After interacting with Zhou Xuan in recent days, the Eternal Life Sect Leader understood a truth — you can always trust Master Zhou’s treasure trove and Wisdom Sea.
The treasure trove needs no further elaboration, and regarding Zhou Xuan’s "Wisdom Sea," he schemed with Zoroastrianism, turned the Xian Nu into a long-term Dan Ticket — these ideas originated from Master Zhou.
The Tiancan Monk echoed, "Exactly, Old Buddha, didn’t you witness the strength of Master when you first joined the Zhou Family’s Troupe? The Buddha Fruit he gave me, one fruit lasted me a year in Buddhist career."
"Gasp..."
The Green Robed Buddha recalled, before joining the Zhou Family’s Troupe, he saw Tiancan Monk and the Eternal Life Sect Leader eating Buddha Fruit together.
The small red fruit contained such genuine Buddha energy, making him yearn for a few bites.
He couldn’t help lowering his posture, respectfully saying, "If I can help Master with tasks, and if I accomplish them well, just reward me with a few more fruits."
The fruit was too precious, even for the Green Robed Buddha, he dared not ask for dozens or a basketful. He merely "requested" a few.
Zhou Xuan shook his head, pointed the fan remotely at the Green Robed Buddha, and said, "Old Buddha, you really haven’t tasted good pork, that red fruit is merely my snack for entertaining guests, eating and drinking, how could it be considered a reward?"
"Ah? That’s not considered a reward?"
The Tiancan Monk clicked his tongue in disbelief.
Zhou Xuan then "snap" unfolded the folded fan, addressing the Green Robed Buddha, "You cultivate the Prajna Wheel Sutra, let me give you a word or two; listen well."
"I’m listening," The Green Robed Buddha perked up his ears.
"Observing the Sea of Treasures, all realities are empty." Zhou Xuan spoke, these words extracted from Zhao Wuya’s "Mark."
After Zhao Wuya consumed the most magical "Little Buddha Red Fruit," he obtained a small portion of the secret technique from the "Prajna Heavenly King."
Although this secret technique is from a fragmented excerpt, it’s the secret technique of the Ninth Realm Lord, and the Prajna Heavenly King’s understanding of "Prajna Wheel Collection" surpasses the likes of Green Robed Buddha as the Sky Dome Buddha.
Seeing Green Robed Buddha, upon hearing Zhou Xuan’s words, absorbed it like a dried sponge encountering water, entirely forgetting everything around him.
He stood with both feet, stepping down on the sand arena, managing to imprint a virtual shadow of the scorching sun,
He lifted his arms to the sky and bent backward, forming a peculiar arch while various halos emitted from his chest. Once coalesced, they formed a small bright moon.
