Ye Yun arrived above Huayan Temple in the vast Land of Thousands of Buddhas, a Buddha Sect stronghold in the western Divine Land far from the Supreme Realm. A God Monarch Realm monk revealed the upcoming Grand Assembly of All Buddhas at the Jade Buddha Sect and provided a map. Ye Yun disguised his appearance, then released the captured red-robed Evil Buddha Sect monk as bait to lure out his master.

"Hehe..."

A sly grin lingered on Ye Yun's face as he steadily observed the red-robed monk.

"I say, doesn’t your Evil Buddha Sect possess a ’Mind Seal’? Quick, contact your master and let me witness his power!"

Ye Yun's mouth hooked up slightly, his voice casual and taunting.

Earlier, this red-robed monk had swaggered around on borrowed prestige, utterly haughty—a scene burned into Ye Yun's mind.

Ye Yun felt zero fondness for the Evil Buddha Sect and vowed to purge this wicked faction from the Divine Land.

Thus.

That was why Ye Yun had let this man live previously.

"Pretty cocky, eh? Hauling me so boldly into the Divine Land—isn't that just begging for destruction?"

The red-robed monk narrowed his eyes, fixing Ye Yun with an icy glare.

How could someone merely at the Divine Monarch Realm act so boldly?

Throwing away his life in the Cangnan Continent merely to reach his master in the Divine Land?

Such conduct was outrageously daring.

This punk must be another pampered fool blind to his own limits...

"Isn't your Evil Buddha Sect mighty in the Divine Land? Call your master now; show me your sect's true strength!"

Ye Yun sneered coldly.

The red-robed monk went quiet, peering at the sprawling temple halls below before furrowing his brow and asking: "Where in the Divine Land is this?"

Ye Yun: "Land of Thousands of Buddhas!"

"Land of Thousands of Buddhas, hahaha... You're as good as dead! My master mentioned our Evil Buddha Sect is based right here! Even without the Mind Seal, killing me will alert him instantly!"

The red-robed monk cackled maliciously, his face radiating utter arrogance.

"Kill you? And your master shows up?"

Ye Yun asked with keen interest.

"Exactly, so I warn you—don't move rashly, or death strikes you next instant!"

The red-robed monk growled ferociously.

Poof!

A flick of Ye Yun's finger unleashed a light ray that bisected the red-robed monk.

The red-robed monk didn't even scream, collapsing dead on the spot.

Ye Yun lingered silently in the void, awaiting patiently.

He waited a full hour.

Yet the red-robed monk's master never materialized.

"This idiot was blindly overconfident too. Without the Mind Seal, how could he notify his master?"

Ye Yun shook his head, smiling faintly.

Fortune favored him—he'd foreseen this while slaying the red-robed monk.

Ye Yun produced the Eight Treasures Liuli Bottle, flicking forth a drop of Three Lights Divine Water.

The drop of Three Lights Divine Water merged into the red-robed monk's corpse.

His wounds sealed swiftly, his dispersed Primordial Spirit reassembled.

In just a few breaths.

The red-robed monk sprang back to life.

Ye Yun's pupils contracted as he unleashed the Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye anew.

He couldn't allow the red-robed monk to remember his death—that might convince the fool of his own supremacy.

What if the Mind Seal went unused?

Hence, Ye Yun had to tweak the man's recollection slightly.

"What just happened?"

Startled, the red-robed monk gazed at Ye Yun in bewilderment and inquired.

"Nothing at all—you just zoned out briefly..."

Ye Yun chuckled lightly, then remarked with profound intent: "In the Land of Thousands of Buddhas, I truly didn't dare slay you. Satisfied now?"

"Satisfied how? I'm triggering the Mind Seal this instant to summon my master!"

The red-robed monk raged.

He refused to keep putting up with this insolent brat any longer.

He yearned to call forth his invincible master and smash this Divine Monarch Realm upstart.

The red-robed monk shut his eyes, golden glow emanating from his face as a illusory Buddha shadow formed behind him.

The Buddha shadow shimmered and faded away.

Ye Yun stood with arms folded behind, observing eagerly.

After the span to burn an incense stick.

The void stayed desolate, devoid of any formidable presences.

"Failed?"

Ye Yun gave a light headshake, a flicker of astonishment appearing.

The Evil Buddha Sect's Mind Seal wielded immense potency.

He'd encountered it firsthand before.

The red-robed monk had activated it properly—why delay from his master?

At that instant.

The red-robed monk opened his eyes, a trace of despair surfacing.

"Master, where did you go? Why can't I connect with you?"

He murmured under his breath.

"Your master might have perished long ago?"

Ye Yun laughed heartily.

"Baloney! My master was the Evil Buddha Sect's finest genius ever, blessed with unfathomable Buddhist Path talent—dead? Impossible!"

The red-robed monk shot back furiously.

"Provided he's alive, I hope he is too..."

Ye Yun chuckled.

The red-robed monk drifted forward.

He appeared utterly composed, boldly demanding: "What are your plans next?"

This fellow was truly full of himself.

Haha... what a fascinating character!

Ye Yun couldn’t suppress an inner chuckle.

"The Land of Thousands of Buddhas will soon hold the Grand Assembly of All Buddhas of the Jade Buddha Sect, powers from every Buddha Sect in the Divine Land will gather there, and the Evil Buddha Sect must join too. We’ll head over to locate your master; the moment I face him directly, I yearn for an intense battle..."

Ye Yun explained with a grin.

"Grand Assembly of All Buddhas?"

The red-robed monk’s eyes sparkled, as he nodded enthusiastically: "With such a magnificent event, my master will definitely show up in person, and we’re bound to spot him once we arrive!"

"Excellent, it’s decided then!"

Ye Yun beamed.

He scanned the red-robed monk from head to toe, then asked with a smile: "What’s your master’s name, if I may ask?"

"The humble monk’s name is—Hongyun!"

The red-robed monk proclaimed gravely.

"Ah, Master Hongyun, my respects!"

Ye Yun cupped his fists, grinning widely.

"Though we’ve clashed before, if you escort me to the Grand Assembly and help me reunite with my master, I might persuade him to let you live, as payment for guiding me to the Divine Land..."

Master Hongyun stated, furrowing his brow.

Ye Yun let out a cold snort: "Your master might not even beat me... After all these years apart, are you certain he’s attained the Divine Monarch Realm?!"

"Absolutely, if I’m right, his cultivation level surpasses yours by at least three minor realms!"

Master Hongyun thumped his chest assuredly.

"Such bold claims without a second thought..."

Ye Yun shook his head, chuckling.

"We’ll see about that!"

Master Hongyun snapped irritably, flicking his sleeve.

"Oh, check it out—a Celestial Boat approaches..."

Abruptly, Ye Yun’s eyes turned, spotting a streak of light in the distant sky.

Soon, a dazzling Celestial Boat soared nearer.

Ye Yun’s pupils contracted sharply.

Right then, a recognizable figure appeared on the Celestial Boat.

Yoga Godlord.

Next to Yoga Godlord was a woman in white robes, seated cross-legged on a cushion, eyes softly shut, aura calm and poised, her presence overflowing with a solemn Buddhist Path essence.

A striking red mole sat between her brows.

This mole, the size of a cherry, glowed brilliantly, releasing a profound ancient presence.

Yoga Godlord looked submissive, hands at his sides, positioned deferentially by the white-robed woman.

Aboard this Celestial Boat stood numerous other young women clad in matching white garments.

These ladies possessed snowy complexions, stunning looks, noble bearing, each pulsing with a potent Buddhist Path aura.

Ye Yun’s eyes flashed as he deciphered the three words emblazoned on the boat’s bow.

"Holy Buddha Sect."
