Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 945: Personnel Matters of the Holy Buddha Sect
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
"So it’s the Holy Buddha Sect..."
Ye Yun stared at the three massive characters etched on the Celestial Boat, his eyes flickering faintly.
One of the top three dominant forces within the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect is the Holy Buddha Sect.
Ye Yun had merely caught whispers of the Holy Buddha Sect's famed reputation in passing, yet he never imagined its disciples would turn out to be female cultivators instead of monks.
Even more astonishing to Ye Yun was
the presence of the Yoga Godlord from the distant Western Buddha Region, standing right beside that stunning beauty from the Holy Buddha Sect.
Exquisite features defined the woman, her skin whiter than fresh snow, her allure eclipsing even the Yoga Godlord's.
Her cultivation realm also towered over the Yoga Godlord's, having reached the God King Realm First Level.
"The Yoga Master Palace ranks among the Buddha Sect powers too, so it stands to reason they wouldn't skip the Jade Buddha Sect's Grand Assembly of All Buddhas..."
Ye Yun gave a subtle nod.
The reason for the Yoga Godlord's arrival became clear to him.
Yet,
Ye Yun hadn't foreseen the hidden tie binding the Yoga Master Palace to the Holy Buddha Sect.
Without that bond, the Yoga Godlord wouldn't display such deference and unease toward the white-robed God King Realm woman.
"Who are those folks on the Celestial Boat? How come every one radiates such intense Super Divine Dragon Breath?"
Master Hongyun raised his head in shock and uttered.
"From the Holy Buddha Sect, they're bound to be formidable."
Ye Yun offered a faint smile.
"That means they're heading to the Jade Buddha Sect's Grand Assembly of All Buddhas too!"
Master Hongyun furrowed his brow and remarked.
"You've got a point—why not hop on this Celestial Boat..."
Spotting the familiar Yoga Godlord, Ye Yun grinned intriguingly, pulling Master Hongyun along as they soared toward the Celestial Boat.
Suddenly, a red-and-white duo materialized overhead on the Celestial Boat.
The Holy Buddha Sect's female disciples instantly grew alert, leaped into the sky, and surrounded the pair completely.
"Hey... who are you lot? How dare you obstruct our Holy Buddha Sect’s Celestial Boat?"
The lead woman at God Venerate Realm Fifth Layer glared icily at them and demanded loudly.
A mighty God Venerate Realm aura surged from her, crashing like ocean waves.
Master Hongyun struggled to catch his breath, quaking in terror, nearly soiling himself from fear.
"Are you trying to get us killed? That kind of strength—we can't handle it!"
Master Hongyun whispered urgently.
"It's merely hitching a ride on the Celestial Boat, no need to fear. Isn't Buddhism all about compassion? Surely they can aid humble folks like us?"
Ye Yun smiled softly.
"..."
Master Hongyun's expression froze, at a loss for words.
As Evil Buddha Sect members, they aided only themselves, never preaching aid to all sentient beings.
Yet, being part of the Buddha Sect, Master Hongyun knew well the principle of universal compassion.
Thus, Ye Yun's retort left him utterly speechless.
Ye Yun fixed his gaze on the woman across from him, cupped his hands politely, and smiled: "We're both bound for the Jade Buddha Sect's Grand Assembly of All Buddhas, but our cultivation is weak and our pace too sluggish. We humbly beseech the fairies to allow us aboard your Celestial Boat!"
"Hmph, you two young monks, topping out at Divine Monarch Realm cultivation at best—what right do you have to join the Jade Buddha Sect's Grand Assembly of All Buddhas? You'd just become a joke there!"
The God Venerate Realm Fifth Layer woman scoffed.
"I say, this fairy, isn’t your statement incorrect?
This Grand Assembly of All Buddhas of the Jade Buddha Sect does not stipulate that those of Divine Monarch Realm and True God Realm cannot participate, and I only want to hitch a ride on your Celestial Boat. If you refuse, just say it, why mock others?
Your Holy Buddha Sect, esteemed as one of the three great Buddha Sect Powers of Land of Thousands of Buddhas, what have the disciples learned of Buddhist Law?"
Ye Yun's eyes chilled as he fired back without mercy.
His retort cut sharp and deep.
The encircling women flushed with rage.
"Saintess, this fellow's got some guts..."
From a distance, the Yoga Godlord observed, whispering with a chuckle.
"They're awfully daring."
The white-robed woman let out a soft laugh.
Just then, her lovely eyes fluttered open.
Those eyes brimmed with elegance, beauty, and utter purity, dimming the heavens' stars the moment they appeared.
She remained seated in serene poise, as if encircled by gods and Buddhas alike.
"Our Holy Buddha Sect isn't unreasonable; since you two seek passage on the Celestial Boat, do you bring any tribute?"
The woman in white robes parted her red lips just a bit, her voice floating over like divine melody from the heavens.
Gift?
A flicker of surprise crossed Ye Yun's face, and he rapidly recalled a certain matter.
What was the Holy Buddha Sect's Saintess implying?
Was he supposed to offer a gift?
"Master Hongyun, do you know about gifts?"
Ye Yun inquired softly.
"Simply hand over something so the Holy Buddha Sect doesn't leave empty-handed..."
Master Hongyun replied with irritation.
His arms flung open in a casual gesture: "I got nothing worthwhile for such mighty beings!"
"You might not, but I've got some!"
Ye Yun slapped his shoulder casually as he declared.
With those words spoken.
His gaze turned to the white-robed woman atop the Celestial Boat, a smile playing on his lips: "Naturally, I've prepared a gift. How about allowing us both to step onto the Celestial Boat first, and then I'll offer it?"
"Very well!"
The white-robed woman nodded with a smile.
These two bold young cultivators at True God Realm and Divine Monarch Realm piqued her interest as well.
After countless years of cultivation.
Never had anyone dared to stop the Holy Buddha Sect’s Celestial Boat, much less the one bearing their Saintess.
The surrounding women parted ways, clearing a path.
Ye Yun strode boldly aboard the Celestial Boat.
Master Hongyun trailed anxiously and shakily after Ye Yun.
Of everyone there, his cultivation was the weakest.
True God Realm First Level only.
A level like that might stir waves on Cangnan Continent, yet in Divine Land, it amounted to mere rubbish.
Master Hongyun adapted swiftly, shifting his mentality in an instant.
Once on the Celestial Boat.
Ye Yun advanced several steps to draw near the white-robed woman.
"Could you be... the Yoga Godlord from the Western Buddha Region?"
Ye Yun lifted his head, looking at the Yoga Godlord with a smile.
"Oh? You recognize me?"
The Yoga Godlord's lovely eyes lingered, staring in astonishment at the young man in white robes standing before her.
This white-robed youth at Divine Monarch Realm actually knew who she was—most peculiar.
"I traveled to the Western Buddha Region once and caught sight of the Yoga Godlord from a distance, utterly captivated by your stunning beauty..."
Ye Yun stated smoothly.
The Yoga Godlord drew in a deep breath, her brows knitting as she scrutinized Ye Yun intently.
Though the words felt strange, they stirred a peculiar familiarity within her.
"How odd—this fellow, who might he be?"
The Yoga Godlord mused to herself.
"Where's that gift of yours?"
The white-robed woman blinked her eyes, gazing at Ye Yun curiously as she questioned.
Ye Yun extended one hand, unfolding his palm.
A pristine white jade bottle materialized in his grasp.
"Merely a small token, hardly worthy as tribute."
With a flick of his finger, Ye Yun sent the white jade bottle drifting forward.
"What's inside this?"
The white-robed woman caught the jade bottle, gave it a brief look, and queried coolly.
"The Saintess need only open it to find out."
Ye Yun grinned.
"All show—I wonder what trick this Divine Monarch Realm youth has up his sleeve as a gift!"
A woman nearby huffed coldly in annoyance.
Her delicate fingers reached out, gently uncorking the bottle as the white-robed woman peered within.
Dozens of vibrant emerald tea leaves filled the tiny bottle.
Countless tiny Dao markings covered the surface of each leaf, radiating a profound Great Dao aura.
A captivating aroma burst forth immediately from the bottle's opening.
"Excellent tea!"
The white-robed woman’s stunning eyes flew wide, and she shot to her feet abruptly.
