During the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor's salvation on Ye Yun, a legendary Purple Buddha manifested behind him, exerting immense pressure that forced the Ancestor, Yoga Godlord, Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, and all disciples to kneel in reverence. Ye Yun dispelled the vision and was proclaimed Buddha Lord by the fervent Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor, surpassing them in the Buddhist Path. As per their wager, the Yoga Godlord and Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman began serving him by pounding his shoulders while he relaxed.

Far beyond the world of Divine Land stretches an immense distance.

A grand and magnificent universe thrives there.

Vast and limitless, this universe brims with countless Buddha realms of all sizes.

Within the grandest of these realms, a subtle purple Buddha radiance fills every corner of the atmosphere.

Deep within the Purple Buddha Land, amid the remote void, a majestic purple temple hovers.

Inside the temple.

Towering tens of thousands of feet tall, a Purple Great Buddha rests upon an elevated lotus throne, its eyes half-shut, lips parted softly, preaching the ultimate profound Dharma.

Down below.

Countless Buddhas, each encircled by glowing purple halos at their backs, sit in silent attentiveness.

All at once, the sermon on the Buddhist Law ceases sharply.

Its eyes open, the Purple Great Buddha peers toward a specific spot in the void.

"World Honoured One, what has happened?"

A Buddha inquired.

"Dragon Tree, someone in your original world has attained the Purple Buddha fruition..."

The Purple Great Buddha murmured gently.

From deep meditation, a Buddha with refined features abruptly opened his eyes and turned toward the Purple Great Buddha.

"World Honoured One, this is indeed worth celebrating!"

Dragon Tree Buddha replied, smiling.

"Did you leave behind any inheritance when you departed long ago?"

The Purple Great Buddha questioned.

"World Honoured One, long ago at my Nirvana, I abandoned my flesh body in the Divine Land, but my Law Body departed, called by you to this Infinite Buddha Land..."

Dragon Tree Buddha stated serenely.

"The Divine Land world proves extraordinarily difficult to access. In those days, I sacrificed immensely to dispatch just a single strand of Infinite Buddha Light. You absorbed that strand, which enabled you to reach Purple Buddha fruition..."

As memories of the past surfaced, the Purple Great Buddha let out a soft sigh.

An unfathomable, fearsome protective force envelops the Divine Land world, barring entry even to mighty existences like him.

During that time, he depleted his wisdom and almost every resource to scarcely project a beam of Infinite Light into it.

This effort brought upon him severe repercussions from the Divine Land, requiring a million years to recover from the wounds.

"World Honoured One, that strand of Infinite Light fully merged with me and exited the Divine Land alongside my Law Body. At present, I believe... no Infinite Buddha Light remains in the Divine Land!"

Dragon Tree paused briefly before speaking.

"Should your Law Body exit the Divine Land world, entry becomes somewhat simpler..."

The Purple Great Buddha mused aloud.

"World Honoured One, Divine Land holds profound mysteries. Despite those conditions, another Purple Buddha has emerged—might a hidden treasure lurk there?"

One Buddha inquired curiously.

"Maybe so; even I struggle to fully grasp the secrets of the Divine Land world..."

The Purple Great Buddha affirmed with a nod.

In that instant, the faces of the other Buddhas shifted dramatically.

The mighty Infinite Light Buddha Lord found Divine Land beyond his control, revealing the world's unfathomable depths.

The Infinite Light Buddha Lord stands as this universe's inaugural Purple Buddha, its mightiest figure, who established the Infinite Buddha Land.

Throughout his existence, he has enlightened innumerous souls.

"Dragon Tree, even after millennia, your flesh body might persist in Divine Land. I possess a technique to send a fragment of your spirit back!"

The Infinite Light Buddha Lord declared unhurriedly.

"Dragon Tree is ready to serve the World Honoured One!"

Dragon Tree Buddha rose, clasped his hands, and bowed deferentially.

"Excellent!"

With a smile, the Infinite Light Buddha Lord extended a finger; a beam of purple light shot from Dragon Tree Buddha’s form, pierced the void, and vanished.

"Simply wait for the glad tidings!"

Having completed the act, the Infinite Light Buddha Lord offered a faint smile before continuing to disseminate the Buddhist Law.

Profound beyond measure, the Buddhist Law manifested marvels: flowers blossomed across the void, golden lotuses sprang from the earth, celestial chants echoed through the emptiness, myriad heavenly maidens swirled in the skies, filling the vast hall with serene splendor.

...

Divine Land.

In the Land of Thousands of Buddhas.

Ye Yun had never anticipated this.

Merely practicing the Mahamudra Sutra of the Infinite Light Buddha Lord attracted the notice of that supreme Buddha Lord, prompting him to dispatch Dragon Tree Buddha’s spirit into Divine Land.

Thud, thud...

Reclining in his chair, Ye Yun puffed leisurely on his smoke, utterly at ease as the Yoga Godlord kneaded his fists gently.

"Luo Ye, show no disrespect to the Buddha Lord, got it?"

Noticing the shift in the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman’s expression, the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor hurriedly transmitted a stern warning.

"Master, has he truly achieved the Purple Buddha?"

The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman inquired.

"Is there any doubt? The aura of the Purple Buddha feels immensely potent, stirring a profound sense of reverence deep within my soul..."

The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor let out a sigh.

"Master, could he be employing some kind of Illusion Technique? He doesn’t resemble a Purple Buddha in the slightest!"

Helplessly flashing a wry smile, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman gazed at Ye Yun, who was wrapped in swirling smoke.

"These are mere externals—don’t let them fool you. Now I must reveal the truth: throughout the whole guidance, my power couldn’t touch him at all!"

A grave look crossed the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s face as he spoke.

"Master, if your power didn’t affect him, then how did he attain the Purple Buddha?"

The Luo Ye Sacred Woman exclaimed in astonishment.

"He took in my power on his own, then pondered the Buddhist Law, instantly awakening as the Purple Buddha!"

The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor gave a wry smile.

"Awakening? That quickly? Jumping straight from Yinfuti to Purple Buddha—it’s unbelievable!"

Shock gripped the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman, her heart pounding as if ready to burst free.

Yinfuti existences lack any innate link to Buddha and stand as its very antithesis.

However, the Purple Buddha holds the supreme honor on the Buddhist Path.

Within Divine Land, every Buddhist aspirant experiences an overwhelming suppression before the Purple Buddha.

"Sigh, I find it unbelievable too, yet it’s the truth—this Buddha Lord eclipses even the ancient Dragon Tree Buddha!"

Another wry smile appeared on the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s lips.

"Master, are you saying Dragon Tree Buddha was the sole Purple Buddha in our Divine Land?"

The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman questioned.

"Correct, Dragon Tree Buddha was Divine Land’s one and only Purple Buddha. His fruition and Buddhist Path cultivation stunned the heavens, but he entered Nirvana ages ago..."

Regret tinged the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s words.

"Master, did Dragon Tree Buddha bequeath any legacy?"

The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman pressed.

"He left a legacy, though it remains profoundly enigmatic, seldom emerging into the world—thus, scarce few are aware!"

The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor pondered briefly before answering.

"Master, do you know the name of this sect’s power?"

The Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman asked with curiosity.

"Dragon Tree Buddha’s legacy bears the name Dragon Elephant Prajna Sect! In reality, this sect’s might exceeds that of my Holy Buddha Sect!"

The Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor declared with solemnity.

"I understand, Master..."

Absorbing the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor’s explanation, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman nodded solemnly, her gaze on Ye Yun now free of skepticism.

"What are you two whispering about?"

Ye Yun flicked away the ash, grinning as he inquired.

Though he couldn’t catch their exchange, this master-disciple duo’s chat instinctively struck him as nothing positive.

"Buddha Lord, I was simply sharing details about Dragon Tree Buddha with Luo Ye!"

Pressing his palms together, the Holy Sky Buddha Ancestor replied with a smile.
