The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor recognizes Ye Yun as a Yinfuti, viewing him as a key to counter the Jade Buddha Sect's secret Yinfuti and maintain supremacy in the Land of Thousands of Buddhas. Amid sect rivalries, he attempts to purify Ye Yun despite the latter's defiant mockery and wager to become a disciple if successful. Divine Buddha shadows manifest, enveloping Ye Yun in a tide of holy light as the Pudu ritual begins.

"Master Hongyun, you are also a person who practices Buddhism, how come you were also purified, haha!"

Gazing at Master Hongyun, Ye Yun couldn't hold back his laughter.

Master Hongyun stayed utterly calm.

He appeared fully absorbed in that amazing realm, unable to pull himself out.

At this sight, Ye Yun lightly pressed his lips together.

Hongyun, this fellow, isn't exactly virtuous. Now that the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor has purified him, perhaps he'll turn toward the path of righteousness from here on.

Seeing the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor's purification fail to work on its target and instead cleanse the nearby True God-stage young monk, Yoga Godlord's fury surged within her.

"This little monk’s Super Divine Dragon Breath isn’t pure. Clearly, he comes from a wild path; being purified is quite normal, isn’t it?"

Yoga Godlord stomped her foot hard and snapped in anger.

"Doesn’t matter, anyway, he’s just an ordinary friend of mine!"

Ye Yun gave a light chuckle.

Faced with Ye Yun's stubborn attitude, Yoga Godlord shut her eyes in exasperation.

Moments later.

She cracked her eyes open just a sliver, peeking at the ongoing purification.

Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman held her breath, fixing her gaze on Ye Yun.

She observed that this Yan Fu, despite her master's mighty purification Buddhist Law, displayed no hint of being swayed.

"This Yan Fu truly lives up to the tales—he can't be measured by his cultivation level! My profound Buddhist Law holds no power against him at all!"

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor slightly narrowed his eyes, examining Ye Yun's state closely, waves rising in his mind.

He conceded that, even without using his full strength, all attempts so far had proven fruitless.

Yet Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor refused to yield.

For if this Yan Fu escaped purification, doom would surely befall the Holy Buddha Sect.

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor shifted his Hand Seal, ramping up the power output steadily.

More divine and Buddha phantom images filled the void, blanketing the area thickly.

Throughout the sky, each divine and Buddha phantom exuded sacred Super Divine Dragon Breath, vivid and real, intoning the Wushang incantation.

Endless milky-white Buddha lights poured down from every side, fully shrouding Ye Yun.

Even Yoga Godlord could no longer spot Ye Yun's figure right then.

Only the Divine King-stage Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman managed to glimpse Ye Yun.

Yet she too could only make out his vague silhouette, not his features.

"It’s the first time I’ve seen Master unleash such fearsome Universal Dharma Power..."

Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman felt deep shock.

Drawing a long breath, she silently hoped in her heart for her master's triumph.

Yoga Godlord gripped her fists hard, her emotions growing taut in that instant.

Although Yoga Master Palace served only as a branch of the Holy Buddha Sect, she yearned for Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor's purification to prevail.

Doing so would let them strike back fiercely at the Jade Buddha Sect.

Moments ticked by slowly.

To Yoga Godlord and Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, it felt like an eternity.

They longed for the countless Buddha phantoms to fade, revealing Yan Fu fully purified.

Amid the sea of white Buddha light, Ye Yun sensed the immense force surrounding him and nodded in approval.

"That old monk does have real skill... but dreaming of converting me is just laughable!"

Ye Yun mused inwardly.

He had planned to expose himself right away, but decided against it to spare the embarrassment.

Folks from the Holy Buddha Sect... weren't terrible.

Yoga Godlord belonged to one of their branches, after all.

She counted as a familiar face.

Ye Yun chose to grant Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor some dignity, avoiding an immediate humiliation.

After two full hours.

"Old monk, quickly withdraw your Buddhist Law, I can’t take it anymore!"

"Saintess, that Yan Fu finally can’t hold on, the purification is about to succeed!"

Joy bloomed on Yoga Godlord’s face, a flush coloring her pretty cheeks as she exclaimed with thrill.

"Yes, master’s still impressive!"

Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman grinned.

Even without a clear view, her sharp instincts told her Ye Yun teetered on the brink.

Overhearing the two women's exchange, Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor offered a wry smile.

Yan Fu remained as spirited as before, showing zero alteration.

Every bit of his work had come to nothing.

In other words.

His Buddhist Law at this level fell short for any true purification.

"Sigh!" Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor let out a heavy sigh.

With quick motions, he pulled back his hands, causing the vast white Buddha lights and myriad vivid divine and Buddha images to ebb away like retreating waves.

"Old monk, you have some self-awareness, at least you withdrew those annoying Buddha lights!"

Ye Yun remained standing there, waving his hand with a cheerful grin to greet Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor.

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor forced a bitter smile, left utterly speechless.

The purification's failure delivered a crushing strike to his Dao Heart.

Despite his profound Buddhist Law, shame engulfed him at that instant, stripping away any urge to speak.

Yoga Godlord and Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman gaped at the completely unharmed Ye Yun in utter astonishment.

That immensely powerful purification had failed?

How was this possible?

Considering Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor was the one who unleashed it.

Undoubtedly, Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor reigned supreme in Buddhist Law across the Land of Thousands of Buddhas.

If even this supreme expert couldn't succeed, who could ever purify Yan Fu?

"Terrifying..."

A bone-chilling cold swept over Yoga Godlord; she stared at Ye Yun like a horrifying demon, her throat constricted, words stuck.

Though only a Divine Monarch, he appeared far scarier than any Divine King to her.

"Master, no need to feel down. Didn't Jade Buddha Sect need millions of years to pull it off? It's totally expected for Holy Buddha Sect to stumble on the first attempt..."

Grief weighed on Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman's heart. But seeing Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor even more tormented, she gently offered words of comfort.

"There’s some truth in what you say..."

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor rasped out the words, his tone filled with bleak despair.

Millions of years in the future.

By then, he would have entered Nirvana ages ago.

Even if Holy Buddha Sect's next Sect Master purified Yan Fu successfully, the sect would endure Jade Buddha Sect's oppression for millions of years.

Imagining the top rank slipping away under his watch stabbed Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor's heart like a sharp blade.

Such a sensation branded him as Holy Buddha Sect's eternal shame.

"Master, should we still go to the Jade Buddha Sect's Grand Assembly of All Buddhas?"

Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman whispered the question.

"Yes, skipping it as Holy Buddha Sect would hand our foes ammunition for endless mockery!"

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor heaved a sigh.

"Old monk, hoping to dodge the ridicule? I've got a plan for that."

Ye Yun's voice cut in abruptly from nearby.

"What solution?"

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor whirled around on instinct and demanded.

"Make Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman my Dao companion. Then I'll gladly submit to Holy Buddha Sect’s Buddhist Law purification. At the Assembly of Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty, challenge Jade Buddha Sect head-on!"

Ye Yun delivered his cunningly crafted idea with smooth confidence.

"What did you say? Fallen Leaf as your Dao companion? Outrageous!"

Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor glared at Ye Yun in shock and rage.

"Old monk, Holy Buddha Sect's leader should grasp the bigger picture. Seize this priceless chance!"

Ye Yun threw up his hands, a cheeky smirk lighting his features.
