Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 971: Jade Buddha Cave Sky, Crystal Coffin

"Dragon Tree Buddha?"

The Buddha Flame Old Ancestor and the Happy Buddha Ancestor stared at Ye Yun, their shock rendering them speechless.

Such a conjecture was truly beyond belief.

Could the sole Purple Buddha of the Divine Land actually be the true form of the Buddha Flame Root?

How could the Buddha Flame Root, a mere potent demonic beast, possibly possess such profound Buddhist talent to achieve the status of a Purple Buddha?

"Buddha Lord, my true form should not be the Dragon Tree Buddha..."

The Buddha Flame Old Ancestor shook his head, a bitter smile gracing his lips.

"No need to be alarmed, it is merely a speculation!"

Ye Yun offered a mild smile, his voice calm.

His earlier thought had indeed been quite audacious.

Yet, he genuinely couldn't conceive of any other influential Buddhist figure whose legacy could manifest so strongly through the avatar of the Buddha Flame Root.

The Buddha Flame Old Ancestor fell into a thoughtful silence.

"Buddha Lord, where shall we proceed next?"

Inquired the Happy Buddha Ancestor.

"Are you not slated to attend the Grand Assembly of All Buddhas hosted by the Jade Buddha Sect? For now, you should return to Jade Buddha City..."

Ye Yun stated.

"While we certainly wish to attend the assembly, we also desire to remain by your side, to perpetually absorb your teachings..."

The Happy Buddha Ancestor expressed with utmost sincerity.

Witnessing the fervent yearning in the Happy Buddha Ancestor's eyes, Ye Yun felt an inexplicable shiver.

He had no desire for these two elders to shadow him constantly.

After all, the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman and the Yoga Godlord were already accompanying him.

"Very well, I shall impart the initial Chapter of a sacred scripture to you. You may then contemplate it at your leisure..."

Ye Yun mused for a moment before speaking.

What he spoke of was, naturally, the Mahamudra Sutra.

This particular scripture was of an exceedingly high caliber, representing the pinnacle of Buddhist understanding and divine techniques from the most formidable Buddhist expert in the universe.

The Mahamudra Sutra was immensely comprehensive, its contents multifaceted, with the potential for countless Chapters, possibly exceeding ten thousand.

For the present moment, Ye Yun intended to bestow only the inaugural Chapter upon these two individuals.

That, he calculated, should provide them ample material for contemplation.

This arrangement would grant him significantly more personal freedom.

Even though the Buddha Flame Old Ancestor and the Happy Buddha Ancestor were esteemed God King Experts within the Land of Thousands of Buddhas, their continuous presence by his side would inevitably draw unwanted attention and complications.

"We are deeply grateful, Buddha Lord!"

Upon hearing this, the two clasped their hands together, a clear expression of joy gracing their countenances.

Two faint beams of purple light emanated from Ye Yun's forehead, penetrating the sea of consciousness of both the Happy Buddha Ancestor and the Buddha Flame Old Ancestor.

Both individuals promptly closed their eyes, immersing themselves in the scripture that radiated a soft purple glow.

In the ensuing moments.

Upon experiencing the profound Buddhist wisdom encapsulated within the scripture, both were concurrently struck with awe.

"Buddha Lord, even this initial Chapter is so potent; what is the designation of this scripture?"

The Happy Buddha Ancestor inquired, his voice tinged with astonishment.

"The Immediate Buddha Scripture."

Ye Yun replied nonchalantly.

"Buddha Lord, does diligently practicing this scripture truly lead to becoming an Immediate Buddha?"

The Happy Buddha Ancestor pressed, his tone brimming with eagerness.

"Do not harbor excessive optimism; there is considerably more content to follow. Attaining the state of a Purple Buddha is not an endeavor achieved instantaneously."

Ye Yun scoffed, effectively dousing their hopes with a cold shower.

The Happy Buddha Ancestor offered a sheepish smile.

"Buddha Lord, this Immediate Buddha Scripture is indeed incredibly powerful..."

The Buddha Flame Old Ancestor murmured, his eyes still closed.

An palpable undercurrent of excitement resonated in his voice.

"It is adequate!"

Ye Yun responded with feigned modesty.

Observing the Buddha Flame Old Ancestor's apparent reluctance to emerge from his state of scripture comprehension, Ye Yun could only manage a wry smile. With his hands clasped behind his back, he proceeded to wait patiently.

The Happy Buddha Ancestor, mirroring the Buddha Flame Old Ancestor's actions, once again closed his eyes to delve into the opening Chapter of the Immediate Buddha Scripture.

"I shall grant you the duration of but an incense stick's burn; thereafter, you shall return to Jade Buddha City to pursue your cultivation individually!"

Ye Yun declared with a smile.

He was well aware of their fervent desire to retreat into this subterranean expanse for solitary contemplation of Buddhist principles.

However, Ye Yun had no intention of affording them such an opportunity.

He still intended to explore Jade Buddha City before returning to Qianya Immortal Residence to rendezvous with the Fallen Leaf Sacred Woman.

Time gradually flowed onward.

Meanwhile.

High above Jade Buddha City, amidst the boundless void, a magnificent celestial domain, discernible through the swirling clouds and mists, pulsed with subtle spatial undulations.

This was the Jade Buddha Cave Sky.

The Jade Buddha Cave Sky was of immense proportions, akin to a colossal creature slumbering within the profound void.

Within the confines of the Jade Buddha Cave Sky.

Countless lakes were scattered like celestial bodies across the landscape of the Jade Buddha Cave Sky.

Upon each luminous jade lake, numerous Nine-leaf Buddha Lotuses flourished.

Towering over the water, each verdant lotus stem reached for the heavens, their leaves and blossoms growing to immense proportions – small ones stretched tens of meters, while larger ones spanned miles.

Numerous emerald lotus leaves served as foundations for ancient, majestic halls.

Upon many of the lotus flowers, towering Buddha statues were erected, crafted by unknown artisans with lines so smooth and forms so lifelike, they seemed to be actual Buddhas standing amidst the blossoms.

The scenery was utterly unique, permeated with a dense spiritual energy, exuding blessings from every corner, a true Wushang Cave of the Buddha Sect.

Indeed, the Jade Buddha Sect, one of the three Wushang sects, called this Jade Buddha Cave Sky its home.

Vast and stretching further inward, the Jade Buddha Cave Sky was veiled by a layer of faint white mist.

As one ventured deeper, following the path of the white mist, it gradually thickened.

These misty expanses marked the secret territories of the Jade Buddha Sect, areas forbidden to ordinary members.

Within the mist, formations were strategically placed according to the regional layout.

Even the disciples of the Jade Buddha Sect were restricted from venturing too deep.

Deep within the white mist.

Several figures, emanating potent auras, stood indistinctly. Though their features were obscured, their monk robes clearly identified them as high-ranking members of the Jade Buddha Sect.

Whoosh!

A gentle breeze suddenly swept through, parting the mist that shrouded the lake.

Beneath their feet, a vast expanse of clear water, brimming with vibrant life energy, was revealed.

Within this watery expanse floated a total of nine Nine-leaf Buddha Lotuses.

Seated in a cross-legged posture upon each Nine-leaf Buddha Lotus was a monk in the God King Realm.

At the very center of the water.

A crystal coffin drifted serenely.

Inside the crystal coffin lay a young boy, clad in simple garments.

This boy, appearing to be only eight or nine years old, kept his eyes tightly shut, his entire body held in a state of tension.

Save for the area around his eyes, his body was densely embedded with a variety of minuscule silver needles.

These needles, as fine as hairs, emitted faint wisps of Buddha light.

Each strand of Buddha light possessed extreme power, seemingly capable of obliterating an expert in the God King Realm.

"Logically speaking, this Yinfuti should be nearly complete..."

Above the water, the oracle Buddha Ancestor, with an alluring countenance, stood against the wind, hands clasped behind his back, gazing down and speaking softly.

"Sect Master, we have, in essence, already achieved universal salvation. Perhaps too much time has elapsed, causing this Yinfuti to temporarily forgo awakening..."

Beside him, a hunched old monk offered a smile and remarked.

"The Ten Thousand Buddhas Dynasty assembly commences in seven days. I wish for him to awaken sooner; I intend to speak with him!"

The oracle Buddha Ancestor stated with light emphasis.

"Yes!"

The hunched old monk readily agreed, gesturing with his hand to issue a command.
