Ye Yun feigned vulnerability to beauty and agreed to be saved by the Holy Buddha Sect's Saintess, who aimed to elevate his spirit via Sentient Prajna. She unleashed ethereal chants, Salvation Seals summoning Buddha illusions, and her supreme Bodhi Mind, yet all efforts failed against him. Opening his eyes, Ye Yun declared mastery over all five vices, shattering the Saintess's confidence and shocking everyone aboard the Celestial Boat.

"Yoga, how could I fail?"

Turning her gaze toward the Yoga Godlord, the white-robed woman pleaded in a pitiable manner, just like a defenseless young maiden.

"Saintess, maybe this individual is that enigmatic, unbeatable legend—Yinfuti!"

A sigh escaped the Yoga Godlord.

The Buddha Sect forever cherishes redeeming all living creatures, proclaiming the Buddha aids only the fated ones.

Across the Land of Thousands of Buddhas, numerous Buddha Sect forces thrive, and diverse redemption rituals abound, with fated souls manifesting in countless ways.

Legends claim every soul can find redemption.

Yet, hidden in the sect's ancient scriptures lies a tale of one utterly irredeemable soul.

That soul is Yinfuti.

No technique can redeem such a being.

"So he's Yinfuti... no surprise my efforts fell short. The legend is real..."

A wry smile crept across the white-robed woman's immaculate, delicate features as she whispered.

"What's she going on about?"

Ye Yun creased his brow and questioned Master Hongyun.

"I have no clear idea..."

Master Hongyun shook his head vigorously.

This marked the first occasion Yinfuti had come to his ears.

"Miss Saintess, does it really count as a failure if salvation didn't work?

Plus, I'm no villain, my cultivation level stays low, and I won't bring you any future headaches..."

Ye Yun remarked with a grin.

"He speaks true, Saintess. No need for discouragement. You've redeemed countless souls already; missing one changes nothing..."

The Yoga Godlord offered consolation.

"Mm!" With a quiet nod, the white-robed woman's face slowly regained composure.

In truth, her Divine King status allowed her Dao Heart to swiftly recover from that momentary disturbance.

"Hahaha!"

A boisterous male laughter boomed suddenly from the far void's depths.

Raising her eyes, the white-robed woman fixed on the crimson shadow in the distant void. Clear sight of his features made her eyebrows knit at once.

Suddenly, a crimson form materialized overhead on the Celestial Boat.

Glancing upward, Ye Yun saw the arrival was another red-garbed monk, akin to Master Hongyun.

However,

Plump and draped in a baggy robe, this red-garbed monk sported a greasy visage and tiny eyes.

In appearance, he lagged miles behind Master Hongyun.

"Master Hongyun, is this fellow your master?"

Ye Yun chuckled as he inquired.

"No way, my master doesn't resemble him at all!"

Master Hongyun denied vehemently, shaking his head.

"Damn it, what's faulty with my looks? Spouting rubbish!"

The red-garbed monk arched his brows upon catching Master Hongyun's remark and berated without restraint.

"Senior, your bearing is majestic; I'd never utter nonsense!"

Master Hongyun hastened to clarify.

"Cut it out, you're merely a True God-stage junior; no point bickering with you!"

The red-garbed monk chortled while flicking his hand casually.

"Happy Buddha Ancestor, how bold of you to obstruct the Holy Buddha Sect's Celestial Boat?"

Advancing, the Holy Buddha Sect Saintess held her aura in check yet firm, her countenance serene as she uttered mildly.

"Hahaha, what an entertaining spectacle I just caught! Never imagined Yinfuti truly walks this world!"

Happy Buddha Ancestor guffawed loudly.

After his bursts of mirth, his gaze shifted to Ye Yun, a sly grin forming as he declared, "Fellow, brimming with vices and tenacity rivaling Yinfuti—you're fated to cross my path!"

"What was that?"

Amused, Ye Yun eyed the red-garbed monk intently.

Just from his title, Happy Buddha Ancestor revealed his true nature.

On Cangnan Continent, such figures abounded.

"I said, fate binds us. Seeking an heir, why not join me!"

Happy Buddha Ancestor proclaimed audaciously.

"Turn me into a monk? In your dreams!"

Ye Yun burst into laughter.

Utterly ridiculous.

Over all these years, no one had ever tried recruiting him as a monk.

Sheer hilarity.

"Brat, I spot talent in you—don't reject kindness!"

Happy Buddha Ancestor's tone chilled, face turning grave.

"Fat monk, best head back home. The Saintess failed to redeem me; your Happy Buddha path won't fare better!"

Ye Yun taunted.

"Impossible to redeem you? Nonsense! Overflowing with sins, a mere ploy from me turns you into one of ours!"

Happy Buddha Ancestor dismissed with a headshake, his gaze brimming with utter assurance.

"Give it a shot if you wish!"

Ye Yun shrugged nonchalantly.

"Saintess, don't claim I snubbed you; this lad bears no tie to you, does he? As the famed Yinfuti, let my Buddhist Path redeem him!"

Swiveling toward the white-robed woman, Happy Buddha Ancestor intoned gravely.

"Since you're both willing, this Saintess won't interfere..."

The white-robed woman uttered her words deliberately.

She wondered if Happy Buddha Ancestor's Buddhist Path possessed the ability to redeem this fabled Yinfuti.

Unlike her own purification technique, Happy Buddha Ancestor's Buddhist Path mainly ignites desires within people.

Desire once ignited causes the boundless ocean of suffering to swell.

The Happy Buddhist Path teaches deriving pleasure from torment.

Within the expansive Land of Thousands of Buddhas, Buddha Sect influences number in the legions, including righteous sects, wicked sects, and those in between; factions proliferate endlessly.

"Heh heh!" Nearby, Master Hongyun's gaze flashed as he sneered silently to himself: "What an idiot this spoiled young master is; under Happy Buddha Ancestor's might, joining him promises boundless opportunities..."

Happy Buddha Ancestor glanced at Ye Yun with a derisive chuckle.

"Boy, unleashing my Happy Avenue might overwhelm you. Any humiliation is your own fault!"

Ye Yun shot back: "Quit bragging, you know I'm Yinfuti, right? No Buddhist Path in this Divine Land can redeem me!"

"You... are far too arrogant."

Fury surged in Happy Buddha Ancestor, and abruptly, a crimson lotus bloomed beneath his feet.

He descended leisurely, assuming a cross-legged position upon the red lotus.

His hands swiftly formed seals while he invoked the Happy Avenue, enveloping his form in a sheen of scarlet glow.

Stunning temptresses, radiating irresistible allure, materialized one after another from nowhere beside Ye Yun.

They writhed in seductive dances akin to serpents in water, striking provocative stances to awaken Ye Yun's lusts.

"Ma De, these weird illusions are downright hideous. Happy Buddha Ancestor, got anything hotter to summon?"

Ye Yun bellowed, eyes bulging as he stared at the phantom females.

Too ugly?

Happy Buddha Ancestor nearly choked at those words.

All those temptresses ranked as peerless stunners, pinnacle of loveliness.

How could they be ugly?

Just what twisted tastes did he have!

"I see now, this fellow prefers homely women over stunners!"

Slapping his thigh, Happy Buddha Ancestor gained sudden insight.

Adjustments came without delay.

Disorienting tunes filled the air, transforming the ethereal beauties into fanged Yaksha demons.

Every one lunged forward, adopting alluring postures toward Ye Yun.

Ye Yun: "..."

This sight left him speechless.

No denying it.

Happy Buddha Ancestor proved a true genius.

His reactions were lightning-fast.

After calling the prior illusions unappealing, the ancestor figured he favored the grotesque and summoned Female Yaksha in response.

"Happy Buddha Ancestor, ugly women aren't my type!"

The shout boomed right by Happy Buddha Ancestor's ears.

This... still not to his liking?

So what did this brat fancy?

Perched cross-legged on the scarlet lotus, Happy Buddha Ancestor gawked vacantly at the youth in white aboard the Celestial Boat, expression fraught with confusion.

Deep inside.

Those earlier visions had been supreme masterpieces of beauty.

Nothing short of perfection, yet if they failed, he was utterly stumped on further changes.

"Perhaps... he's into treasures?"

Suddenly, an idea sparked in Happy Buddha Ancestor's thoughts.
